Chapter 192 The Royal Expedition 1
Chapter 192: The Imperial Commander 1
For the Ming Dynasty, which had been calm for many years, the attack of the tile shook the court and the public. Some of them were angry, some were worried, some were disdainful, and some were secretly grateful. However, no matter what, the small tile shook had already begun to attack the tile shook, and many of the Ming Dynasty's tile shook also fell into the hands of the tile shook.
Under Wang Zhen's encouragement, Yingzong planned to lead the army in person, and also learned from Xuexi's ancestors to open up the territory and establish great merits for the Ming Dynasty. He had this decision in his heart, so he was eager to try it out. However, the emperor's personal army must be approved by the ministers in the court. Yingzong, who had originally hated the morning dynasty, is now very excited about the arrival of the morning dynasty.
Time passed slowly, and the morning court that Yingzong was looking forward to finally came late after Yingzong tossed and turned all night. He sat on the high dragon throne and looked at the ministers below. The scene suddenly appeared in front of Yingzong when he was triumphant and the ministers were welcoming each other.
The tile sect attacked the Ming Dynasty, and it was a big deal, but even if Yingzong knew about it, he had to pretend to be. When he didn't know, he sat upright, Wang Zhen next to him shouted: "If you have something to say, you will leave the court without any trouble!"
"I have a memorial to start the report!"
Kuang Kun, Minister of War, said aloud at this time.
Yingzong couldn't help but feel happy. He was really afraid that no one would mention this matter, otherwise his plan to personally lead the expedition might have failed. Now, hearing what Kuang Kun said, he immediately said: "Authentication!"
Kuang Kun did not hesitate at the moment and immediately said: "Today, the Ministry of War received Datong. Xuanfu urgently issued a document. The Wassatis troops divided into three groups to attack Datong, Xuanfu and other places. Now Xuanfu and Datong have fallen into the enemy's hands, and they also lead the army to the capital first."
Kuang Kun's words were astonished, and many people began to talk about it, and many people showed indignation on their faces. After all, in their seriousness, this thorn wanted to be the Ming Dynasty to surrender, and this thorn was like a servant of the Ming Dynasty. Now the servant suddenly punched the master. Whether it was face or his own self-esteem, anyone felt sorry for it. It was a very shameless thing. However, many people also began to recall that not long ago, the three princes in the court kept saying that the thorn was going to attack the Ming Dynasty and had to prepare early, but the people led by Wang Zhen ignored it. Instead, they kept saying that this was a rumor. Now, this thorn was indeed a wolf's ambition and began to attack the Ming Dynasty.
So many ministers also watched the fun, as if they were looking at how you, Wang Zhen, would deal with it.
"Damn it!"
Yingzong looked indignant and slapped the dragon throne hard, and said angrily: "This thorn is really brave. He actually made up the idea of my Ming Dynasty. What is the so-called tolerable?"
After saying that, he turned his head and looked at the minister below and said in a deep voice: "Now that the Wasat has already arrived at the city, and all the beloved ministers also express their opinions!"
As soon as Emperor Yingzong finished speaking, the Minister of Rites Wu Yong immediately said loudly: "Your Majesty, I have something to do to report!"
"explain!"
Yingzong's face was now full of anger, and his words became much deeper.
Wu Yong gave Liezi, bowed and said with grief, "This thorn is not just a small foreign country. He used to bow to my Ming Dynasty. Every time he came to my Ming Dynasty, we treated me with courtesy. Not only were they not grateful, but they also used troops to my Ming Dynasty this time. It was really annoying. If we let it go, it would be a lot of the prestige of my Ming Dynasty. What would be the face of my Ming Dynasty? And seeing their invasion of this army, they must have been prepared for it, so I think we should immediately summon troops and wink at the thorn, otherwise, they would think that my Ming Dynasty is easy to bully and would be more aggressive. And seeing their invasion of this army, they must have been prepared for it."
Many ministers scoffed at Wu Yong's words. Wu Yong was as famous as his name. He then flattered Wang Zhen and then got into the position of Minister of Rites. It was basically useless. Moreover, he was wearing a pair of pants with Wang Zhen. When the third prince said that the tile tile was about to attack the Ming Dynasty, he was the most troubled, saying that the tile tile was always respectful to the Ming Dynasty and would never use force against the Ming Dynasty. Now, when he heard that the tile tile began to attack the Ming Dynasty, he was the first to jump out.
However, Yingzong did not feel displeased with the fences because of this, but nodded lightly and said in a deep voice: "Wu Aiqing's words are reasonable. This is related to the face of the Ming Dynasty and the face of the court. How can we play tricks on it? If it is spread, the face of the court will be gone. Therefore, we must not tolerate it this time, and we must repay our country's power and uphold our country's power!"
After saying that, he turned his head and looked at Kuang Kun and said, "Kuang Aiqing, how many soldiers and horses are there in our capital now?"
Kuang Kun was stunned, but he immediately replied: "Your Majesty, there are still 800,000 troops garrison in the capital."
"Eight hundred thousand?"
Yingzong gently tapped the armrest of the dragon chaise and pondered: "How many people did Watanabe send this time?"
This kind of information was reported in the expedited documents, so Kuang Kun did not hesitate and said, "Report to the emperor, documents were sent from the border. The army of thorns was about 400,000, but...!"
When Kuang Kun said this, he couldn't help but hesitate. In order to prevent himself from being punished, some generals have learned to falsely report the number of enemies, but in fact, whether there are so many people is still an unknown number.
“But what?”
Yingzong couldn't help asking, looking at Kuang Kun with some surprise.
Kuang Kun hesitated for a while and continued, "Your Majesty, the number of enemies is only mentioned in the document. It is not certain whether there are so many enemies."
"Wouldn't it be better if there are few enemies?"
Wu Yong, who was standing aside, interrupted, "As soon as our army arrived, the enemy fled. If there is no need to fight this battle, wouldn't that be better?"
"idiot!"
Kuang Kun couldn't help but curse in his heart, but he was also a person who was not so arrogant. How could Yesen not know how many troops the Ming Dynasty had and how many troops it could use? If the Ming army arrived and others fled, there would be no need to fight this battle. Yesen would not have to attack the Ming Dynasty in large quantities.
He couldn't help but immediately said: "Your Majesty, this time, I must have prepared myself. I believe that someone should be sent to investigate the specific troops of Majesty, and then make a long-term plan."
"I have objections to this!"
A minister stood up from Liezi and continued: "What Mr. Kuang said is inappropriate. The army of thorns is like locusts. The place where we pass is, the people are living in poverty. The more we delay, the more the people will suffer. As a minister of the court, do you bear to see the people suffer?"
The person who spoke was Zhang De, the Minister of Justice, who was also an absolute prince.
"Mr. Zhang has some truth!"
Kuang Kun said slowly: "But if you don't find out how many enemies there are before sending troops, it will affect our strategy. Marines and wars are not a joke. It will affect the lives of millions of soldiers."
Zhang De couldn't help but feel anger on his face and said, "You said I don't know how to march and fight?"
"Okay, stop fighting!"
Yingzong knocked on the armrest of the dragon chaise impatiently, turned his head to look at Wang Zhen, and said, "What do you think?"
Wang Zhen bent down slightly and said, "Emperor, this thorn is already at the city. At this time of argument, maybe the people of the Ming Dynasty are suffering from their torture, so I believe that we should send troops immediately now."
"good!"
Yingzong immediately said, "Our priority now is not to argue here, but to send troops immediately, otherwise, this thorn thinks that our Ming Dynasty is easy to bully."
After saying that, he turned his head to look at Kuang Kun and said, "Immediately transfer 500,000 troops and prepare to go to war."
Kuang Kun's face changed and he immediately said, "Your Majesty, no!"
"What's not?"
Yingzong said impatiently: "Don't there still be 500,000 troops in the capital? It's more than enough to transfer 500,000 troops, so why can't it be?"
"emperor!"
Yu Qian couldn't stand it anymore. As the saying goes, two fists can't beat four hands. Kuang Kun is not the kind of person who is eloquent, how could he be an opponent like Wu Yong and others who rely on horseback to reach high positions? Moreover, the emperor doesn't like anything, he just likes those kind of good words. And looking at this now, Yingzong is determined to send 500,000 troops. If he opposes and makes the emperor unhappy, Kuang Kun will be unable to protect him. Not only will the soldiers still be revealed, but the official position is lost.
After standing out of Liezi, Yu Qian said: "Your Majesty, there are 800,000 soldiers in the capital, but in order to surround the capital, the remaining 300,000 is far from enough. Moreover, 500,000 soldiers and horses are all major problems. If we are not prepared enough and have not fought with Wassai, we will be disorganized because of insufficient food and grass."
Yingzong nodded, Yu Qian said without any problem, and said, "Yu Aiqing is right. The so-called "soldiers will go before they move their food and grass. So according to Yu Aiqing's estimate, how long will the food and grass be prepared for these 500,000 soldiers?"
Yu Qian pondered for a while before saying, "Your Majesty, I guess it will take at least ten days."
"Ten days?"
Emperor Yingzong also hesitated and said, "Wasn't that Watana has done whatever he wants in the territory of our Ming Dynasty for another ten days?"
Yu Qian immediately said: "The emperor can issue an order. All the officials guarding the city must stick to it and wait for reinforcements. As long as we guard the city and do not leave, there is nothing we can do about this!"
"good!"
Yexian clapped his hands and said, "Immediately Issued an order, and the officials guarding the city in various places should not be allowed to come out, and wait for reinforcements. Those who disobey the imperial edict should be punished with serious consequences!"
