Daming Greedy Wolf Star

Chapter 169 Use Evil to Cure Evil

In fact, it's already at this time, and the production of potatoes has almost spread throughout Daming, so Xie Jin began to think of a way to fight back...

It's not too late, it can be said that the battle is over.

It's just that the outcome of the battle won't be as bad as Xie Jin thought.

The position of the crown prince is not so easily shaken, not to mention that he did not make any mistakes, but that he also worked hard in supervising the country and governing the country before.

And what about the lineage of the King of Han?

Yes, first he suppressed the Japanese in Zhejiang, then made great achievements in the Northern Expedition, and then Yangzhou eliminated corruption, Jiaozhi and the Japanese Kingdom. Zhu Zhanhe can be said to have made great military achievements.

But the problem is that Zhu Zhanhe only has great military exploits.

In terms of literature and politics, Zhu Zhanhe only put forward two suggestions: the method of examination and making it up immediately, and he still handed it over to the prince Zhu Gaochi, asking him to help present it to the old man.

That is to say, to put it bluntly, Zhu Zhanhe is a general, and the special status of the royal clan makes people have special expectations.

Perhaps Zhu Di has been shaken by this, but if you want to store easily, it is absolutely impossible to only focus on this point.

However, there has never been a shortage of smart people in this world, let alone people with good hands and eyes.

Imperial Palace, Wenhua Palace.

Zhu Gaochi looked at the secret letter in front of him, only feeling pain in his head.

Before, he never felt that his officials in the Eastern Palace were all sacks, but now it seems that it may be too much to say that the officials of the Eastern Palace are all sacks, but the leaders must be.

That's not true either.

Jin Youzi and Yang Rong can still see clearly and know to choose themselves early, while Yang Shiqi and Yang Pu are also smart and have little to say.

Only Xie Jin, Huang Huai, and Hu Yan are three people with cerebral palsy!
"Go back and sort it out, organize it into a memorial, and send it to the emperor..."

Zhu Gaochi put the secret letter in his hand aside, and spoke to Yang Rong below.

"Yes……"

……

Yang Rong has always been a smart man, and he is a smart man among smart people.

If one were to evaluate Yang Rong's life, Zhu Zhanhe would call it the strongest subject in Yongle Dynasty and the most perfect ending.

In the first year of Jianwen, Yang Rong was appreciated by Xia Yuanji. In the same year, he participated in the provincial examination and won the Jieyuan.

In the second year of Jianwen, Yang Rongzhong ranked third in the general examination, and got the second best result in the palace examination.

Everyone knows the top three, so you may think that the second top is not a good result, but in ancient imperial examinations, there were only three people in the first top, that is, the well-known number one scholar, second place and Tanhua. Chuanhe.

Yang Rong is the second in the second class, which means that he has achieved No.5 in the palace examination.

However, the turning point of Yang Rong's life was not here, but in the fourth year of Jianwen.

That year, Zhu Dijing was not successful and he broke into Yingtian Mansion. Just when Zhu Di was about to enter the palace, Yang Rong stopped his horse and said something that changed his life.

First curb the mausoleum, first ascend the throne?
The translation means: Your Majesty, when you enter Beijing, do you want to pay homage to the tomb of the first emperor?Or enter the palace first?

Because of this sentence, Zhu Di let Yang Rong enter the newly established cabinet and started his official career through four dynasties.

If Zhu Zhanhe were to choose civil servants to help him, he might choose many people, such as Yang Shiqi and Yang Pu, and Xia Yuanji, but if it was about politics, he would definitely choose Yang Rong first.

Yang Rong is capable, knowledgeable, and lucky.

In the 12th year of Yongle in history, after Zhu Di went to the north to recruit class teachers, Zhu Gaoxu made Zhu Di furious by offering slanderous words, and sent all the officials of the East Palace to prison.

Among all the officials of the East Palace, only Yang Rong survived. Not only that, until Zhu Di died in Yumuchuan, Zhu Di believed that Yang Rong was from Zhu Di, not from the princelings.

There is also how Yang Rong and Jin Youzi assisted Zhu Gaochi to ascend the throne after Zhu Di's death. I won't talk about it, most people know it.

In addition, Yang Rong's good luck is not only reflected in these two aspects, even his death is full of luck.

In the fifth year of orthodoxy, Yang Rong died of illness, and he was not discredited by the Tumubao Incident, which made his life in the history books perfect.

And now Zhu Gaochi also feels that Yang Rong may be his most trustworthy person.

-

On the other hand, Zhu Zhanhe, who was in the Japanese country, didn't know that someone was already plotting against him, and he was a little busy at this time, because he was undergoing a "test".

Because, this Ashikaga Yoshichi used 36 tricks for him.

Seeing the beautiful woman sent by Ashikaga Yoshichi in front of him, Zhu Zhanhe really couldn't laugh or cry.

It has to be said that the Wa country, which has learned a little bit of Han culture, is indeed relatively familiar with the Central Plains, and it is relatively familiar with many places.

Let's put it this way, it may not be as high as Chosun Gao, who communicates frequently with Daming, but I'm afraid it's on par.

For example, the beauties sent by him, even though he was prejudiced, Zhu Zhanhe still had to admit that the ones Ashikaga Yoshimochi chose were really beauties, at least in terms of the aesthetics of most Han people.

Secondly, the clothes of these women are also very particular, including Ming Dynasty clothing, Japanese clothing, and even the clothing of several ethnic minorities in Yunnan.

I have to say that this Ashikaga Yoshichi did put his heart into it.

However, Zhu Zhanhe's chicken was frozen twice, but that was all.

Beauty, no one dislikes it except for men, but you score the situation, and you also score the person.

Previously, my father refused to find Zhu Zhanhe, a dancer from the Western Regions. After all, he is only 14 years old. He doesn’t expect to be able to pee against the wind by the age of 30, but at least he can’t wet his shoes with the wind, right?

Tasting the taste too early will do great harm to the body.

Secondly, I can still vividly remember what the last Japanese envoy did, and Zhu Zhanhe was afraid that the moment he invited his younger brother out, the beauties in front of him would kill him.

"Let someone send it back." Zhu Zhanhe smiled and waved his hand.

It is difficult for Ashikaga Yoshichi to use a beauty trick, but it seems that the current situation of Ashikaga Yoshichi is really not very good.

"Yes!" Zhu Ling breathed a sigh of relief, and hurried those women away.

Normally speaking, it was when Zhu Zhanhe was interested in that matter. Although Zhu Zhanhe was very firm in the past, people's reactions are different every time.

But now that Zhu Zhanhe refused so resolutely, this actually made Zhu Ling worry.

His Royal Highness, could it be...

But now Zhu Ling doesn't have time to think too much, because the current Ming army camp is already a bit chaotic.

As the weather completely warmed up, the soldiers of the Ming army who were already a little anxious because of the truce became even more anxious now, but Zhu Zhanhe always stood still, which made them suffocate and it was difficult to vent.

Especially two days ago, when Zheng Heng and Chen Mao left Shijian Yinshan with [-] soldiers and came here to join the Ming army led by Zhu Zhanhe, the soldiers became even more anxious.

Soldiers also have camps.

For example, the Mu family army brought by Zhu Zhanhe from Yunnan, now they claim to be Zhu Zhanhe's pro-army, because the lineage of the King of Han is in Yunnan.

What's more, which soldier is unwilling to follow a general who can easily gain military merit?
In addition to the Mu family army, there is also the [-] battalion.

They were very dissatisfied with Mu Jiajun's idea and practice of claiming that Zhu Zhanhe was close to the army, because Zhu Gaoxu was in command of the [-] Battalion before he took over.

From their point of view, the Three Thousand Battalion had followed the lineage of the King of Han for the longest time, and had followed Zhu Zhanhe in the northern conquest, so they were Zhu Zhanhe's pro-army.

However, the two sides were at a stalemate on this point, because Mu Jiajun believed that there were many rainforests in Yunnan, and whether it was against Siam or Nanzhang in the future, it would not be a suitable stage for the Three Thousand Battalion to play.

Moreover, in the view of the Mu family army, the Three Thousand Battalion during the Northern Expedition was not considered to have made meritorious service with Zhu Zhanhe at all. It was just a few times with Zhu Gaoxu in the battle. The credit was Zhu Zhanhe's capture of Benya. It was given to them.

But there is one thing, whether it is the [-] Battalion or the Mu Family Army, they are very hostile to the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion and the Fifth Army Battalion who joined later.

They will even unite against these people together.

Zhu Zhanhe also knew about this situation, but he couldn't deal with it.

One reason is that he is the person involved, and if he stood up to deal with this matter, he would appear guilty and self-defeating.

The second reason is that this is actually caused by the emotional changes of the soldiers who have been out fighting for too long.

The reason why he has been standing still and hanging Ashikaga Yoshichi is because he wants to make the country as chaotic as possible, so that the Ming army can better gain an advantage.

It's not that he thinks that the Ming army will be weaker than the standing army of the Japanese army, but that in wars, casualties are inevitable.

From the expedition to the present, although a lot of achievements have been made, [-] soldiers of the Ming army have also been turned into a handful of loess, from a living person to a small jar.

However, judging from this momentum, procrastination may also have a bad effect.

……

Heiankyo, Muromachi.

Ashikaga Yoshichi really didn't want to face the Ming army's swordsmen, because there are not many people he can call now, and it will be the farming season soon after the weather warms up. The Ming army confronted.

In Ashikaga Yoshichi's idea, the best solution is to retreat peacefully, but he took the wrong first step, and every subsequent step will not be able to play the role it should have been able to play.

"Honorable General Ashikaga."

Ashikaga Yoshimachi was startled by the sound of a voice, turned his head to look, and found that it was Emperor Gokomatsu standing behind him.

Looking at the guards who were squeezed to the door and couldn't get in in the distance, and looking at the large black helmet outside, Ashikaga Yoshichi narrowed his eyes.

"Your Excellency the Emperor, I don't know what is the important matter, but let His Excellency come here in person?"

"General Ashikaga, I heard that the Ming army has taken action, and has now assembled at the border of the Tajima Kingdom. At the same time, the Ming army's treasure fleet has also assembled on the coast."

"I came here this time to ask, I wonder when General Ashikaga plans to send troops?"

Emperor Komatsu's face was full of smiles, but anyone could see that there was a sharp knife hidden in the smile.

"Your Excellency the Emperor, Tajima is a place controlled by the rebels of the Southern Dynasty. I think it is not good to send troops at this time."

"However, His Majesty the Emperor, there is no need to worry. As long as the Ming army dares to cross Tajima Feng America and enter Tango, Tanba and other feudal states, we will definitely send troops! Repel the Ming army!"

"Then, I will trouble General Ashikaga to worry about it." The smile on Emperor Komatsu's face became wider

……

But in Majie, the Ming army gathered here, vowing to send troops.

Standing on the temporary platform, today is the first time that Zhu Zhanhe puts on the armor that the old man specially asked to make for him.

The brand-new armor reflected the sun's rays, making it hard for people to open their eyes.

"I called everyone here today, and you should know what you want to do."

Zhu Zhanhe, who was standing on the general's platform, spoke a little suddenly, but he quickly calmed down the soldiers.

"Before, in the seventh year of Yongle, I, Zhu Zhanhe, the heir of the Han Dynasty, slaughtered Japanese pirates in Taizhou Prefecture and became famous in one fell swoop."

"I don't know how many of you have seen real Japanese pirates, but if you ask those people who have experienced it, they may all give you an answer, that is, these Japanese pirates, at least they don't look like rogue bandits."

"Ever since then, I have known that the kindness of our Daming is nothing but stupidity in the eyes of these pirates."

"Perhaps many people have thought about it, but they haven't asked. That's why I was so determined in my attitude towards the enemy, and committed those heinous tragedies."

"I can't tell you my journey in detail, but I can tell you a little bit."

"Why did the Tatars invade the border of Ming Dynasty repeatedly, Chen Jikuo surrendered and rebelled repeatedly, Japanese pirates repeatedly harassed the sea area of ​​Ming Dynasty, our people were robbed and killed, and when our soldiers came down, their weapons Lost, we have to treat them with righteousness?"

"Obviously the one who lost the most is our Daming. Those people who lost their loved ones didn't even have the chance to bury their relatives. They could only cry bitterly in front of the tombs."

"Those people who were robbed were treated like cows and horses in the enemy's country, and they were not treated as human beings at all."

"And we! Want to do justice to them!?"

"After seeing the people in Taizhou Prefecture who were plundered by the Japanese kingdom, I understand that wicked people usually use unscrupulous means when they do evil, but when the evil comes back, they are the most begging for mercy."

"Now, we have advanced to the border of Tajima! We are only one step away from King Wa!"

"Along the way, we let the enemy's blood stain the sea! Let the enemy's bones pile up like a mountain! There are nearly 50 dead souls hanging in our name!"

"Now, the King of Japan is close at hand, and we have two choices."

"One, compromise with reality and become the former teacher of benevolence and righteousness!"

"Second, fight out like we did when we first landed on Wajima! Kill until the rivers are bloodied! Kill until the enemy turns pale!"

"Tell me, you guys, what do you want to do!?"

Zhu Zhanhe has never been a good player at mobilizing emotions, and his voice, which is still in the period of voice change, seems a bit ridiculous.

However, he did an excellent job mobilizing the morale of the soldiers.

Because, from the founding of the Ming Dynasty to today, there has never been a general like him.
