King of Han Dynasty of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 245: Why did all the dynasties fall into a vicious cycle?

Zhu Di asked as he spoke.

The eyes of everyone in the field involuntarily focused on Zhu Gaoxu again, with a strong sense of curiosity in their expressions without any concealment.

Feeling the eyes focused on him, Zhu Gaoxu frowned and pondered for a moment, looked at Zhu Di cautiously, and said:

"father"

"I can tell you about the third plan."

"But you have to promise not to get angry or angry."

This statement came out.

Everyone looked at him with astonishment, and doubts arose in their hearts.

What the hell?
Could it be that this man was going to say something shocking again, or say something to criticize Zhu Di, so he asked for instructions in advance and sounded the alarm?

My dear mother!
You bastard really dare to say anything.

"No matter what shocking words you say, dad will forgive you for your innocence and you won't be angry because of it, okay?"

Is it a bad idea to send troops to the Northern Expedition?

Zhu Di coughed a few times to cover up his embarrassment. He stared at Zhu Gaoxu for a long time with his eyes half-closed. Finally, he had to wave his hand and said in extremely grand terms:
"Okay okay okay
"Boy, just say it."

Sensing the gazes on him and listening to Zhu Gaoxu's words of request, he estimated that this bastard's last plan was not something he could hold back, and it had a lot to do with him.

Immediately, Zhu Gaoxu was silent for a moment. He was stunned by his messy thoughts. He cleared his throat with a few coughs and said:

If he really didn't let this bastard talk, wouldn't it just prove and illustrate his stinginess?

"cough cough"

It doesn't matter if it's not atmospheric.

Mainly because he asked the question in his own words, and with the foreshadowing of the first two plans, his curiosity was aroused by Zhu Gaoxu.

It's not that Zhu Di is really grand.

Thinking of this, everyone turned to look at Zhu Di subconsciously.

"It sounds like I am so stingy."

At the same time, everyone finally understood why, when he was talking about the first two plans, Zhu Gaoxu could talk freely and without any scruples, but when it came to the third plan, he would be so solemn that Zhu Di could not be angry. , got angry, and only dared to speak after getting his personal assurance.

Have no idea!

"This third strategy is also my last strategy, 'attack the army secondly, then attack the city'."

Is this the strategy and strategy that you despise the most?

However, these words are obviously not allowed to be said. If they were to be said, wouldn't it be to completely dismantle Zhu Di and deliberately use the sole of his shoe to greet others in the face, making himself uncomfortable?
In this case, there is absolutely no need.

After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu stretched out his hand to spare his head in embarrassment and smiled coquettishly. He really wanted to ask him, are you really not stingy and like to get angry at every turn?

Everyone: "."

"In other words, we will launch the Northern Expedition and use force to reduce the strength of various tribes in the Waga Prairie to achieve our goal."

The result was as expected. As Zhu Gaoxu finished speaking, Zhu Di's face darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his old face was covered with frost.

While silent, everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at Zhu Di, and they didn't dare to say anything, especially the prince who had just been scolded, and his fat head was buried even lower.

Suddenly, the originally lively atmosphere in the field turned cold and harsh.

No wonder everyone was like this, they knew that Emperor Yongle advocated the Northern Expedition, and this matter had been put on the agenda, so they were about to leave.

You are saying this at this time.

What's the difference between slapping the emperor in the face?
He almost pointed at Zhu Di's face and scolded him.

After being silent for a long time, Zhu Di simply sorted out his thoughts, stared at Zhu Gaoxu with half-closed eyes, and asked in a deep voice:

"The next step."

"Interesting, interesting." "Second brother, you said it to me nicely."

Feeling the changes in the atmosphere and Zhu Di's unkind expression.

In response, Zhu Gaoxu shrugged noncommittally, waved his hands quickly and said:

"Dad, don't get excited yet."

"Although this is a bad idea in my opinion, that doesn't mean it's necessarily bad."

"It's just that our strategies, methods, and methods still need to be changed."

"It would be a good idea to send our troops northward."

After hearing this, Zhu Di reached out and gently touched the beard under his chin, glanced at him with interest, and said with a smile:

"Okay!"

"Improvement, improvement, I would like to hear what you have to say."

"tell me the story."

"If you can satisfy me, this matter will be dropped."

"If it doesn't satisfy me"

I didn’t say what happened next, but everyone is not a fool. If he is dissatisfied, I’m afraid he will have to be punished.
Hey, this old guy got here and even threatened me.

Such threatening words left Zhu Gaoxu speechless.

Isn’t it said that when the emperor opens his mouth, he always speaks with eloquent words and sticks to his words?

As I just said, if you don't get angry, if you don't get angry, if you don't get angry, the result will still be the same. If you should get angry, if you get angry, there won't be any change.

Zhu Gaoxu smiled and did not get entangled in this matter. He simply sorted out his thoughts, his voice suddenly became deeper, and he said:

"It's actually very simple."

"There is actually no problem in sending our troops north to attack the Tatar and Oara grassland tribes."

"But when we are on an expedition against these tribes, I feel that our focus cannot be entirely on fighting, or we should withdraw our troops just to subdue them, scare them, or even make them surrender."

"We should take this opportunity to earn more profits."

"Otherwise, why would we have sent out so many people, so many soldiers, and wasted food and fodder?"

"This is why I say that just fighting is the last resort."

Having said this, Zhu Gaoxu paused, his half-closed eyes suddenly opened, he looked around at the people in front of him, his voice became extremely low, and he said:

"You can recall it."

"Since Taizu established the Ming Dynasty, we have made countless expeditions to Mobei."

"But the Tatars were beaten to submission just now, and then Wala regained its strength and became more active. After that, every time this cycle happens, one family is beaten down, and the other one rises again, right?"

"Why are you going through this cycle and never being able to get out of this vicious circle?"

"I wonder if you have ever thought about this issue?"

Everyone was startled when they heard this, their brows knitted together, and they fell into deep thought.

It seems that throughout the ages, this problem seems to have occurred, and everyone has been trapped in such a vicious cycle.

Seeing that everyone frowned and did not answer, Zhu Gaoxu half-squinted his eyes and pondered for a moment, then continued:
"Actually the reason is very simple."

"It doesn't matter whether it's the Ming Dynasty or the past dynasties."

"They all designate themselves as a celestial dynasty, and implement so-called benevolent policies while taking into account the so-called majesty of celestial dynasty."

"You are too kind to these enemies."

"It is precisely because of kindness that these barbarians dance so happily."
