Starting from Comprehensive Martial Arts: Bu Dao Lu

Chapter 258
Emperor Xiaokang had an idea in his mind and suddenly realized: "So, the actions of the Western Expeditionary Army in the Xixia Empire were deliberately done by the ninth brother to force the land gods of the five grassland countries to raid the imperial capital!"

Zhu Qi looked at Emperor Xiaokang with some surprise and said, "Brother, you know what you are doing at the slightest glance, it's amazing!"

Emperor Xiaokang smiled bitterly and said: "The Western Expeditionary Army's attack on the Xixia Empire is completely contrary to common sense. I have deduced it many times with Wei Guogong and Xin Guogong, but we all don't understand the reason. I didn't expect it to be here!"

Zhu Qi smiled and said: "If there had not been the Western Expeditionary Army's conquest in the Xixia Empire, the land gods from the five grassland countries might not have come out!"

Emperor Xiaokang sighed: "Ninth brother is so clever!"

Zhu Qi smiled and continued: "After the war, I discussed with my father to keep the outcome of the war secret! Nurha Chi fled the imperial capital in panic. There will be no changes in the Qing Empire in a short time; on the Yuan Empire side, Tie Mu I really don’t know what’s going on in the war, so I don’t dare to act rashly!”

"And the empire is taking advantage of this opportunity to take over the Xixia Empire first and divide the grassland. Then attack the Khitan Empire and the Dajin Empire!"

"As long as the empire takes over the Three Kingdoms on the Grassland, the Qing Empire and the Yuan Empire will never have a chance again! When the Empire integrates the Three Kingdoms on the Grassland, even if it is a waste, it will be able to kill the Qing Empire and the Yuan Empire!"

Emperor Xiaokang put his hands on his hands and smiled and said: "Yes, Ninth Brother, the Xixia Empire, the Khitan Empire, and the Dajin Empire are the three grassland kingdoms that should be captured quickly. If the three grassland kingdoms are defeated, not only can they cut off the connection between the western grassland and the northern grassland, but the empire's national strength It will go a step further, and by then the Qing Empire and the Yuan Empire will have no escape!"

Zhu Qi: "That's exactly what it is! Brother Emperor, the empire will attack the grassland in a big way next. What the father means is to let the brother return to the imperial capital to consolidate the resources of the empire for the army to attack! The prince wants to sit in the northern region to stabilize the situation. While exploring the territory, you should also gain more experience and practice!”

Emperor Xiaokang nodded and said: "Ninth brother, don't worry about the expedition. I will return to the imperial capital overnight to take charge!"

Zhu Qi knew Emperor Xiaokang's temperament, so he didn't try to persuade him!

What's more, with Emperor Xiaokang's cultivation in the middle stage of the Grand Master Realm, traveling for a few days is nothing!
The royal family of the Ming Empire is extremely special among the many empires in the Chinese continent!

In most empires, struggles for power between royal families are commonplace!But here in the Ming Empire, there are very few dirty people in the royal family!

First of all, Emperor Hongwu came from a young age, and there were not many members of the royal family, so the family affection between them was much stronger!
Furthermore, Emperor Xiaokang was too outstanding. In front of Emperor Xiaokang, these princes of the Ming Empire had no intention of fighting for power!
Third, among the many princes, Zhu Qi, the only one who is famous and powerful, is not keen on power!

Coupled with the "Dragon Martial Arts" that Zhu Qi contributed to the royal family, many royal elites have pursued martial arts!
Therefore, the Ming Dynasty royal family can be regarded as the most harmonious royal family in China mainland!
If so, place it in other empires.The vassal king goes out to command the army and destroy the country, and the emperor sits in the rear to prepare supplies. The final result must be Xiao Qiang!

Of course, the royal children of the Ming Empire were not without ambitions for power.

But in front of him was the mountain of Emperor Xiaokang, and in the back was the monster Zhu Qi.Their ambitions were infinitely suppressed within certain limits.In other words, the children of the royal family of the Ming Empire are no longer pursuing the throne, but the land gods who have made great achievements in opening up territories and furthered their martial arts.

……

The Ming Empire was in its most critical period of rise. Zhu Qi and Emperor Xiaokang met briefly and then went their separate ways!
The northern region and the army conquering the grassland need Zhu Qi's arrangement.The Imperial Capital of the Ming Dynasty also needed Emperor Xiaokang to be in charge.

If the Ming Empire wanted to rule the grasslands completely and stably, it would need to spend huge amounts of military, financial, and manpower on the grasslands.

Although the prince has some means, his political skills and governance level cannot compare with Emperor Xiaokang.Among the entire royal family of the Ming Empire, in terms of the level of governance, apart from Zhu Qi, only Zhu Gaochi, the Crown Prince of Yan, has the potential to rival Emperor Xiaokang!
……

Bianjing City in the Northern Territory.

Bianjing was the original capital of the Song Empire.After the Song Empire was destroyed, Emperor Xiaokang issued an order to change the capital of the Song Empire to Bianjing.As the former capital of the Song Empire, Bianjing is still the core of the Northern Territory.

In the main hall, Zhu Qi looked at the core civil and military personnel of the Northern Territory and asked softly: "Wei Guogong, how is the order of the troops and horses in the Northern Territory?"

Xu Da was shaken and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Commander, the major cities in the Northern Territory now have planned guard posts stationed there. Although these guard posts are not as elite as the original guard posts of the empire. But the Northern Territory Guard Posts It is enough to stabilize the situation in the Northern Territory and maintain the rule of the empire."

"In addition, all military organizations in the Northern Territory have been absorbed by the empire. These troops have also been eliminated from the old and weak, reorganized into armies, and are now undergoing training in five large military camps."

Xu Da has always been based in Bianjing City and is responsible for coordinating and arranging the military affairs in the Northern Territory.Xu Da was very familiar with what Zhu Qi asked.

Zhu Qi was not surprised by what Xu Da said!The military in the Northern Territory was originally planned by him.He asked Xu Da just to confirm the military progress in the Northern Territory!

"Wei Guogong Xu Da has another appointment. From now on, the troops and horses in the Northern Territory will be in charge of Xin Guogong Tang He!"

"The general will obey the order." Tang He (Xu Da)

Although Zhu Qi's military order was a bit abrupt, Tang He and Xu Da accepted it without any hesitation!

Zhu Qi ignored everyone's suspicious expressions, but said to Tang He: "Xinguo Gong, you are mature and prudent, and you are the leader of the country. The Northern Territory has just surrendered to the empire, and you are in charge of the Northern Territory, so the Northern Territory is safe."

Although Tang He felt that Zhu Qi's words were a bit strange, he couldn't allow him to think too much about it!

Tang He: "Don't worry, Commander, we will definitely protect the Northern Territory for the empire."

It wasn't until Tang He finished speaking that he came back to his senses.Among the generals in the palace, Xu Da and Zhu Wenzheng are more famous than him. In addition, there are several royal princes in the palace. Although their military achievements are not as good as his own, they can rely on their royal status to guard the northern region more conveniently; Why did Zhu Qi choose him to govern the Northern Territory?For this reason, they even took away Xu Da’s job!Could it be that his face is paler today.

Zhu Qi: "Since the Northern Territory has been controlled by the empire and is used by the empire, it is time for the empire's army to make a move."

Just when Tang He was doubting his life, Zhu Qi's words directly made Tang He feel sad!Sure enough, I shouldn't have extravagant expectations.If the imperial army moves, the one guarding the Northern Territory will not be able to move at all!

As soon as Zhu Qi's words came to light, Xu Da and Tang He were filled with joy and sorrow.

Obviously, Zhu Qi's replacement of Xu Da with Tang He must be related to the empire's next actions.

Tang He was named by Zhu Qi to take charge of Bianjing to rectify the troops in the northern region. He was destined to be unable to go to the front line. This situation made Tang He, an old general who had fought for his whole life, feel very unhappy!

Zhu Qi naturally knew the loss in Tang He's heart.

But as Zhu Qi said, Tang He is indeed the most suitable candidate.
