Wanli 1592

Chapter 516 Take back Daming's future!
Zhu Yijun analyzed the current situation in an orderly manner, and he seemed to have quite a military literacy. Xiao Ruxun guessed that the emperor must have made a lot of contributions to the military in private.

In this respect, Zhu Yijun was better than his grandfather Jiajing. Grandpa Jiajing only knew how to practice Taoism and play power, but he didn't know how to learn military affairs. Otherwise, it would not be impossible for him to regain the military power, and what would be left to Long Qing would not be a mess.

Zhu Yijun is still analyzing.

"According to the current situation, Taiyuan City is not dangerous. Wang Shiyang restrained the soldiers and horses of the four towns. Even if the soldiers and horses of Datong and Xuanfu could not come, the soldiers and horses of Yulin were intact. It is also very close to Taiyuan, and Taiyuan itself has several Thousands of soldiers and horses can be mobilized, and he can mobilize no less than [-] soldiers and horses.

If 10 people are unable to repel the 1 Mongolian cavalry, Wang Shiyang is in vain as the governor of Xuanda, and this official should not be an official. The most dangerous thing that worries me is not the Zijing Pass, but the Yanmen Pass.

Yanmen Pass has been defended for more than a month. Facing the Mongolian army several times larger than his own, it is really not easy for Wei Yunzhen to persist until now. Once Yanmen Pass is breached, tens of thousands of Mongolian troops will go south to plunder.

If the defenders along the way can't resist, the people along the way will be slaughtered, Taiyuan will face nearly [-] Mongolian cavalry, the situation is precarious, I am very worried about Yanmen Pass, what does Ai Qing think? "

Xiao Ruxun agreed with this.

The most dangerous place at present is not the Bauhinia Pass at all, but the Yanmen Pass where the troops are not as strong as the Mongols!It is very rare for Yanmenguan to hold on until now. Not only did it hold on, but it also held back half of the Mongolian soldiers.

This relieved a lot of pressure on Wang Shiyang and Li Chengliang. If Yanmen Pass fell, the balance of war would tilt rapidly, and it would be too late for Xiao Ruxun to save them.

"What Your Majesty said is very true. At present, the most dangerous thing is not the Zijing Pass, but the Yanmen Pass. Once the Yanmen Pass is broken, tens of thousands of Mongolian troops will go south, and Taiyuan will also be in danger. Taiyuan is the capital of Shanxi. It is an important town. Once it falls, the consequences will be disastrous.

The minister thought that the Mongolian army attacking Zijingguan must be defeated immediately, and then the troops were divided into two groups, all the way to quickly support Yanmenguan to stabilize the situation, and all the way south to attack the Mongolian army with the Taiyuan defenders to break the siege of Taiyuan, and then think about how to break the siege of Yanmenguan. Soldiers, and then the army suppressed the border, gradually regained Datong, and completely expelled the northern captives. "

Zhu Yijun looked at Xiao Ruxun with relief, feeling that there are so many civil servants and generals, and everyone is talking about defense. It seems that if you don't defend, the country will perish. Only Xiao Ruxun came with an active offensive strategy and was full of vigor. This is the kind of general who dares to fight.

"Aiqing knows how to train soldiers, I know, how many soldiers did Aiqing bring this time?"

Xiao Ruxun said: "This time I came in a hurry, I can only prepare three thousand soldiers, one thousand gunners, one thousand shield soldiers and one thousand musketeers. In addition, I also brought twenty red cannons. Your Majesty, please select them." Two hundred skilled gunners and ministers, so that the ministers can operate the cannon."

"Three thousand soldiers and horses... It's still a little less. What is this Hongyi cannon? Is it another name for Fran's machine gun?"

Xiao Ruxun shook his head.

"Your Majesty, this Hongyi cannon is a new type of artillery used by Franjiyi that I discovered after I fought with Franjiyi in Nanyang. Or the firepower, it far surpasses the Frang machine gun, compared with the Hongyi cannon, the Fran machine gun is like a bird gun."

"Oh? There's still such a thing? Fran's Jiyi's level of cannon making is really extraordinary. Earlier, he used Fran's machine gun, but now he actually uses this kind of red cannon. Maybe Daming imitated it?"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I have obtained the method of casting this cannon from the artillery factory run by the Frangji people in Macau, and the Ming Dynasty can also imitate it. Furthermore, I have defeated Frangjiyi in battle, and Frangjiyi bowed his head and bowed his head. Your Majesty may rest assured."

Zhu Yijun showed a gratified smile again.

"Only Aiqing can truly share my worries! Aiqing, I don't have too many soldiers and horses for you this time. The main force of the Beijing camp has already gone to defend the Zijing Pass. The remaining soldiers and horses need to defend the capital and cannot be dispatched.

Therefore, I will give you the command of the [-] cavalry brought by Li Rusong, and you will take them to Zijingguan, where you will replace Li Chengliang as the commander-in-chief of the Yubian Pingjiao, with the rank of admiral, without Wang Shiyang's restraint. "

Xiao Ruxun nodded, and the security promised: "I respect the imperial order! I will definitely destroy the northern captives and restore the rivers and mountains for your majesty!"

"Hahaha! Good! With Aiqing here, I have nothing to worry about!"

Zhu Yijun laughed out loud, feeling much happier.

At this moment, the three assistant ministers of the cabinet and Shi Xing Li Rusong joined hands to ask for an audience. Zhu Yijun laughed as soon as he heard it, and waved his hand to announce them to come in. Let's meet them, it's been a while, haven't we? I remember, you beat Li Rusong when you were in North Korea?"

Xiao Ruxun smiled and said, "That's all in the past."

"That's not normal. You are the only person in Daming other than Li Chengliang who dares to beat Li Rusong. Who is Li Rusong? Who dares to beat him? Only you dare. Afterwards, Li Rusong was still tamed by you. It can be seen that Aiqing will Use people!"

Xiao Ruxun said with a smile: "Your Majesty knows how to employ people, and my Majesty knows how to employ me. I am willing to be used by Your Majesty."

Zhu Yijun was stunned for a moment, then took Xiao Ruxun's hand, and said seriously: "There are very few people I can trust in civil and military affairs, but I trust Ai Qing, and I can swear that I will live up to Ai Qing in this life. Ai Qing also lives up to me."

Hearing what Zhu Yijun said, Xiao Ruxun was somewhat moved. For his own goals, there are very few people who can be called alliances, and Zhu Yijun is the only one who can really play a big role. Righteous name.

We must take back the future of Daming from the hands of civil servants, landlords, and businessmen!
"I will live up to your majesty's trust! I must be loyal to your majesty and to Daming."

"Good! Good!"

Zhu Yijun's excitement was beyond words.

The three ministers of the cabinet and Shi Xing Li Rusong soon appeared at the gate of the palace. They were all surprised when they saw Xiao Ruxun standing beside Zhu Yijun, especially Li Rusong, whose eyes were wide open. It actually appeared in front of his eyes, he couldn't help but be surprised.

Li Rusong didn't know how he felt when the memories of North Korea came back to his mind.

It was Zhao Zhigao who reacted first, and quickly asked: "Your Majesty, why is Xiao Zhennan here?"

Zhu Yijun said: "General Ming, Xiao Aiqing is the first choice. I think it is better to leave this battle to Xiao Aiqing, so I sent someone to recall Xiao Aiqing earlier, and I decided to replace Li Aiqing with Xiao Aiqing. Military officer.

Although Li Aiqing is good at fighting, she is too old after all. The northern captives are fierce and the situation is critical. I can't bear to see the veteran not die well. Li Aiqing is already seventy. She has paid enough for Ming Dynasty. It is time for Li Aiqing to retire and take good care of her It's been a year, that's what Xiao Li Aiqing meant, right? "

Zhu Yijun looked at Li Rusong, and Li Rusong felt relieved for no reason, he breathed a sigh of relief, and replied: "Your Majesty's words are true, my father is seventy years old, and the weather is cold now, I really can't bear to see my father make any mistakes. Thank you, Your Majesty." Forgive me for my father's difficulties! On behalf of my father, I thank Your Majesty for your grace!"

The three cabinet ministers looked at each other, Shi Xing also smacked his lips, feeling that something was wrong.

Zhu Yijun didn't seem to have asked them, so he directly pushed Li Chengliang and asked Xiao Ruxun to step up. How did Xiao Ruxun come here and how did he succeed him? He didn't seem to say anything clearly, so he just let Li Rusong agree, and then settled the matter. ?
Your Majesty, why don't you play your cards according to the routine?

We can't keep up with your new routine.

"This...Your Majesty, the Ministry of War has never issued a document asking Xiao Zhennan to bring his troops back to Beijing. In this way, is it difficult to explain to the ministers?"

It's not that Shi Xing doesn't appreciate Xiao Ruxun, he also single-handedly promoted Xiao Ruxun, he has a good impression of Xiao Ruxun, and feels very sorry for Xiao Ruxun's going south to Burma, and regards it as one of the reasons why he can't go further into the cabinet. But now that Xiao Ruxun came back, he didn't know anything about it, so he had to ask.

Zhu Yijun explained it.

"I didn't discuss it with Aiqing, but Xiao Aiqing followed my order to go north and return to Beijing. Is there something wrong?"

Under the current circumstances, how dare Shi Xing say no?

"Since His Majesty is recruiting, there is nothing wrong with it!"

Shi Xing was already biased towards the emperor, but now he is even more decisive.

Although the three ministers of the cabinet have objections, the situation is like this. Xiao Ruxun has returned to Beijing, and the matter of being the chief military officer is basically confirmed. If they object again, they will be playing against the emperor——

Now it's best not to touch the emperor's brow. Zhang Wei has just been slapped off and is about to be beheaded. The emperor is full of anger, and the officials are staring at him. None of them want to be the second Zhang Wei.
