At the beginning of the civil castle, the Ming God of War was a little panicked

Zhang Yi was restless, hesitated for a long time, and finally became ruthless.

Damn, just die!

Up to now, I can't get away anyway.

Done!

Looking outside the door, two figures dangled around, seemingly not paying attention to the situation in the room.

So dipped in soy sauce, and scribbled a line of small characters on the note: Yang Hong, Yang Dan, and Yang Tai conspired against each other!
Then roll up the paper strip and stuff it into the half-eaten steamed cake.

About a quarter of an hour later, sure enough, the deaf and dumb old man came in to clean up the dishes.

At the same time, the guards outside the gate were staring at Zhang Yi's every move.

Zhang Yi glanced at the deaf-mute old man inadvertently, and saw that he put his head down to clean up the dishes, and then left without looking at himself during the whole process.

The guard at the door just stared at Zhang Yi, completely ignoring the deaf-mute old man.

Zhang Yi pretended to be calm, but his heart was already in his throat.

The old man left slowly, and the door closed again.

call--

Zhang Yi took a deep breath, only to realize that his whole body was drenched in cold sweat.

The experience of last night was too appalling. These people not only conspired against each other, but even revealed a shocking secret. There was something wrong with the death of the late emperor!

This can be explained, why the first emperor died when he was only 36 years old.

Only then did he truly appreciate the strength of the Jiangnan gentry.

These people have existed since the Tang and Song Dynasties, especially in the Southern Song Dynasty, when the old Zhao family lost half of the country, when Yue Wumu was preparing to regain the lost land in the Northern Expedition, he was repeatedly frustrated.

It's not that the Song army couldn't beat the Jin army, on the contrary, on the frontal battlefield, the Jin army was beaten helplessly.

However, Yue Wumu died in the hands of his own people in the end.

Now that I think about it carefully, perhaps from then on, the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River began to secretly control the government.

Do not……

Not secretly, but clearly!

The officials and gentry group headed by Qin Hui secretly colluded with the Jin army, invaded the land of the Song Dynasty, and killed Zhongliang, but they died well and were crowned king!

How could the emperor turn a blind eye to such a situation?
Perhaps...the emperor at that time was beyond his control!
Zhang Yi was born as a Jinshi, and he belonged to the group of extremely intelligent people. After learning a lot of truth last night, he immediately saw the truth of the world clearly.

What kind of monarchs and ministers, fathers and sons, are all bullshit!

Those words are nonsense, the only truth in this world is profit!
Under the temptation of interests, father and son can turn against each other, and brothers can become enemies. How can monarchs and ministers who have no blood relationship complement each other?

only……

Zhang Yi knew that he was not with these people, at least not before last night.

Yang Dan told the truth, firstly, he was ready to accept himself.

Furthermore, it is driving yourself to a dead end.

Join or die!

Human beings are made of flesh and blood, so there is no one who is not afraid of death.

However, he is still unwilling to join. Apart from the so-called ways of the emperor and ministers, what is more important is his approval of the current emperor.

As a great scholar of the current dynasty and the second person in the cabinet, Zhang Yi has a brilliant literary talent and profound knowledge.

In addition, during the period of studying history in the Imperial Academy, I came into contact with a large number of historical books, such as the Spring and Autumn Period, Shiji, Zizhi Tongjian, etc., not to mention memorizing them all, at least I read them all.

These history books record many prosperous times, the rule of Wenjing, the rule of Zhenguan, the rule of Xianping... and even the rule of Renxuan in this dynasty. At the time of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, the description of the prosperous age was nothing more than not picking up things on the road, not closing the door at night, that's all.

Five years ago, his understanding of the prosperous age was roughly the same.

However, today, five years later, everything has changed.

In the current Daming, it may not be possible to not pick up lost items on the road or close the house at night, but the people live and work in peace and contentment, no longer suffer from hunger and cold, the family has a surplus, and the children wear new clothes. Everything is so real.

He knew how hard life was for the common people.

How is life now, he has also visited the field.

Compared with the two, Zhang Yi sighed sincerely, isn't this the prosperous age expected by scholars?

However, this sudden rebellion caught him off guard.

However, he also secretly made a decision in his heart that he must not stand by Yang Dan's side!
If Yang Dan and others succeed, and the prince is too young to control the government, then everything the emperor has done in these years will be overthrown and repeated.

They will take back their privileges, and the wealth under them.

Under the New Deal, the wealth accumulated by the people's hard work will also be looted by them.

The sea ban will be reopened, and private slabs will not be allowed to enter the water, and their smuggling boats will be unimpeded.

If the imperial court wants to smuggle along the coast, then there will inevitably be Japanese pirates in the coastal areas, although among those Japanese pirates, there are not many real Japanese, not even thirty percent.

At that time, the people will return to a life of starvation and scant clothing.

The imperial court will also face many difficulties because it cannot collect taxes.

The Yellow River burst its embankment, and river governance needs money.

Severe droughts and severe floods require money to relieve the victims.

War requires more money!

Without money, it is impossible to move an inch.

At this time, Zhang Yi already knew everything. Although he himself was a gentry, he didn't want to be in the same boat as Yang Dan.

In addition to the inner conscience, there is another very important reason.

In the 14th year of Zhengtong, when the emperor ordered himself to return to Beijing to deliver the letter in Tumubao, surrounded by the Oirat army, he had already made a decision that he would only assist the emperor for the rest of his life.

Thinking of this, he became worried again.

Was the old man who delivered the meal sent by Yang Dan to test him?

If so, it's time to tear your face apart...

Xishan, Dajiaochang.

Wu Heng, the right servant of the Ministry of War, personally read out the imperial decree: "The Nanhai Guard sent an urgent report that a large number of foreign enemies have recently invaded. The emperor ordered the Fifth Army Battalion and Shenji Battalion to rush to support!"

Xu Yongning, the commander of the Fifth Army Battalion, and Chen Ying, the commander of the Shenji Battalion, accepted the imperial edict without suspecting fraud.

Wu Heng said: "Nanhai Wei is in a hurry, please both of you, leave immediately!"

Dingguo Gong Xu Yongning clasped his fists and said: "I'll straighten out the soldiers and horses, bid farewell to the emperor tomorrow, and go to sea by boat from Tianjin Wei!"

Wu Heng's face was startled, and he immediately smiled and said, "The emperor said, we can't wait for a moment, it's best to leave tonight!"

Chen Ying was puzzled and said, "At least let us say goodbye to the emperor..."

Wu Heng had no choice but to say: "To be honest, the emperor is not in the capital!"

Xu Yongning and Chen Ying looked at each other with puzzled expressions at the same time.

It's fine if it's an ordinary imperial decree, but today is a troop transfer!

The army is mobilized and the emperor is not here. Is this... justified?

Wu Heng waved his hand, and two personal guards came up behind him, each holding a wooden box in their hands.

After opening, there are two copper tiger charms.

"Two, please verify!"

The military talisman is the token of the imperial court's dispatch of troops, and it is more important than the imperial decree, because the imperial decree can be forged, but the tiger amulet cannot.

Xu Yongning and Chen Ying each took out their own military talismans and went to verify that they were all true, no problem.

However, something always felt wrong.

Wu Heng saw the doubts on the faces of the two, and said: "The emperor also said that the Shenji Battalion and the Fifth Army Battalion are the elite of our Ming army, and this time they will definitely solve the dilemma of the South China Sea Guard!"

Chen Ying thought for a while, and then said: "I will go to sea to fight against the enemy, what will the capital do?"

Wu Heng shook his head with a smile, and said, "Don't worry, Duke Jing. There are three thousand battalions around the emperor. Besides, with the strength of my Ming army, who can fight against the capital?"

Chen Ying thought about it carefully, and it was the same reason.

Looking at the imperial edict again, there is the seal of the Supervisor of Rites, the seal of the Ministry of War, and the signature of the cabinet, no matter how you look at it, there is no problem.

Fighting wars now is not as much as before, and food and grass must be advanced first. Moreover, the preparation time in the early stage is as little as half a year, and as long as two or three years is also possible.

Looking at the moment, whether it is land, water, or sea, the traffic is very developed, and it is unimpeded to go wherever you want.

As for food and grass, there is no need to rush to prepare, there is still time for temporary requisition.

At this time, Xu Yongning said: "I'll straighten out the soldiers and horses and set off!"

To be honest, he was in a hurry than Chen Ying.

Being in the lineage of Duke Ding, he was already weaker than the other Dukes, especially when the British Duke Zhang Fu was around, it was not his turn to lead the Beijing camp.

Zhang Fu became king and went to Jiaozhi, so the vacancy was vacated, and it was his turn.

Since taking charge of the Fifth Army Battalion, he has not fought a battle.

Think about it, how can such overbearing weapons and equipment be passed without squandering them on the battlefield?

This time it is finally time to fight, although there is no expression on the face, but in the heart I can't wait to fly over.

Seeing Xu Yongning's statement, Chen Ying couldn't say anything more, so he agreed.

A knowing smile appeared on Wu Heng's face, and he said, "Then I wish the two of you the best of luck!"

Xu Yongning and Chen Ying clasped their fists in salute at the same time, and then assembled and rectified. Before dark, they boarded the train in batches and went straight to Tianjin Wei.

When Wu Heng returned to the capital, he first met Yang Hong and told him that everything was going well.

Yang Hong was overjoyed immediately, transferred the Shenji Battalion and the Fifth Army Battalion away, and the Three Thousand Battalion was not there, the capital became a ripe fruit, and he could pick it whenever he wanted!

"It's not too late, can we start to act?"

Wu Heng said: "There is only Jinyiwei left in the capital, nothing to be afraid of, it's just Mobei..."

Yang Hong laughed loudly and said, "Gula only needs to hold back the [-] battalion, and when the Tatars kill the emperor, great things will happen!"

Wu Heng was still puzzled, and asked again: "Gula's military strength... I'm afraid it won't be able to compete with the [-] Battalion."

"Don't worry, I have already made arrangements!"

Yang Hong raised the corner of his mouth, pointed at the map and said, "Here!"

Wu Heng looked at the map, which was located to the west of Mobei Weigeng.

"This is not my land of Ming Dynasty."

"Of course not!"

Yang Hong said proudly, "Do you know where the Wala people went?"

Wu Heng frowned slightly, and said, "Didn't you follow Xiqike and stay in Mobei?"

"Those are just a part!"

Yang Hong pointed to the map, which was in the northwest beyond the border of Ming Dynasty, and said: "Actually, the Oirats did not originate from the Onan River. They came from the Yenisei River area, including the current Hamiwei, Junggar and other places."

"These people have existed since the Tang Dynasty. They call themselves Oirat, which roughly means the people of the forest. They are called Warraga by the Han people. Their sphere of influence is very wide. The strength should not be underestimated."

"The one that I led first was the Junggar tribe, that is, those who followed Xiqike. In addition, there were also large tribes such as Duerbert and Turhut, who still lived a nomadic life on the Yenisei River. .”

"Their current leader is called Sang Chi, who can gather [-] cavalry, which is enough to turn Mobei upside down!"

Wu Heng roughly understood that the Oirats came from the west, and they were both cooperating and competing with the Tatars.

After the emperor's personal conquest and annihilation, only some people followed Xiqike to settle in Mobei, and some tribes returned to the Yenisei River, far away from Daming.

He didn't know this information before, but Yang Hong, as the chief military officer of Datong and Xuanfu, must know more about the Wala people.

However, he still has a question, why did he lure the wolf into the house?

The former Yexian has already disturbed Daming chickens and dogs, and now there is another Sang Chi, if he is allowed to develop and grow, won't he become the second Yexian by then?
Yang Hong seemed to see what he was thinking, so he pointed to the map again and said: "Sang Chi's soldiers and horses went to Mobei not only to avenge the dead Wala people first, but more importantly, they can temporarily Cut off the connection between Beihaiwei and the imperial court!"

Wu Heng finally understood that it turned out that Yang Hong secretly colluded with Sang Chi and was well prepared!
Duoyan Sanwei and Mohewei are fighting in the north, and they must be inseparable. The only one who can fight now is Beihaiwei.

If there is a chaos in the capital, Bei Haiwei will come to attack, it will be really troublesome.

With Sang Chi messing around in Mobei, it will be different!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Yang Hong really deserves to be an old fried dough stick!
First, Fangtuobuhua rushed into Mobei and went straight to the emperor, then Gula restrained the [-] battalion, and then the Wala people came in and stirred up, and the whole Mobei was in chaos!
Even if Beihaiwei wanted to rush to help, he didn't know where to start.

At that time, everyone will know that the emperor died at the hands of the Tatars. No matter whether it is the Three Thousand Battalion, Beihaiwei, Mohewei, or whoever, they will at most go to find Tuotuo without spending their lives, but they can't think of it. arranged.

In the capital, the crown prince ascended the throne, and everything went smoothly.

The next step is the big cleansing. Those who participated in this operation will replace Cao Nai, Yu Qian and others to control the government. When the time is right, they will gradually replace the commanders of each guard with their own people. What is the difference between Emperor?
The more Wu Heng thought about it, the happier he was. If this matter is done, the six ministers will definitely have their place.

"Master Yang, is there someone delivering a letter from Sang Chi?"

Yang Hong smiled triumphantly, and said, "Don't worry about that, Sang Chi is already on his way, and what we have to do now is to prepare for the new emperor's enthronement!"
