Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 806 Bilateral Alliance
In fact, unknowingly, this loose group of Ming Dynasty generals gradually showed signs of cohesion. This cohesion was not based on private interests, but on spirit.

Since the Battle of Tumu, a large number of nobles and generals who followed the emperor in the northern expedition were killed, and the elite central forces suffered heavy losses. The backbone of the military class was broken.

The Ministry of War, which was controlled by civil officials, gradually abolished the Five Military Governorates. The Ming Dynasty changed from a time when civil officials were neglected and military officials were valued to a time when civil officials were valued and military officials were despised. This broke the political ecology of the Ming Dynasty.

Even after that, the Ming Dynasty had several signs of reversing this situation, such as Chenghua's plowing the court and Wuzong's personal expedition, but in the end, nothing happened.

Chenghua Li Ting was so great, but there are very few historical records about it.

Wuzong simply jumped into the water.

Zhu Youxiao didn't want to think too much about what happened behind the scenes. The past is the past and people have to live in the present after all.

The Tianqi Dynasty wanted to implement imperial rewards. Not only did they want to do it, but they wanted to do it on a large scale. They wanted those who could participate in the war and dared to fight to gather in the war areas and let them serve under generals who could coordinate the work. As long as they won the battle and made meritorious services, they would all be awarded corresponding honors in the end without exception.

I won’t touch the power of the Ministry of War.

I will take charge of suppressing the rebellion!

First, we need to defeat all the nobles and generals and restore their spirit and energy. During this period, we need to slowly reform the army, win over the hearts of the lower-level soldiers, and open up the path for upward promotion. I don't believe that the world will be in chaos.
This is the essence of using war to promote reform.

The vision of the Ming Dynasty cannot be limited to the local land. People should dare to look at the world and know how to look at the world.

By the time the war is almost over, internal reforms will also be almost over.

At that time, things to do became more complicated.

Among the military generals of the Ming Dynasty today, there are many people who dare to fight and like to fight. They lead troops and are active everywhere, and those who drive and dispatch them are all talented commanders who understand military affairs, so it is enough to maintain this model.

As for those who form cliques and engage in corruption during this period, let the officials discover and punish them one by one, and everything should be done according to the rules.

The current Ming Dynasty is in a state of diversity but not chaos.

And this is exactly what Zhu Youxiao wants.

If people can see through everything and guess everything, then what's the point of reforming? It's better to stop as soon as possible, otherwise it will become more chaotic and decadent.

For several days.

The rain has stopped in North Korea.

It's sunny.

The clouds are light.

The royal capital, Seoul.

Suppress the rebellion in the Marshal's Mansion.

Sun Chengzong was in a very complicated mood. The news coming back from all over the country was bad one after another, and these bad news had nothing to do with the encirclement and suppression of the rebel forces, but were all about local Korean affairs.

The road is broken.

The water has risen.

The land was flooded.

The people are in chaos.

In a nutshell, the chaos in North Korea has affected the encirclement and suppression of the rebel forces, and the war in Korea will be delayed again.

"Lord, please eat something."

Liang Zhiyuan had a serious expression on his face. After he walked into the main hall, he looked at Sun Chengzong who was deep in thought. "You have lost your appetite these past few days and even slept very little. If this continues, I'm afraid..."

"I'm not hungry."

Sun Chengzong sighed lightly, frowned and said to Liang Zhiyuan: "The strategy of building a strong camp and fighting a stupid battle should be implemented in Korea. I don't know when this battle will end."

"I'm afraid it will take more than a year or two to end." Liang Zhiyuan followed up on the conversation, but he didn't dare to tell some of the truth. Judging from the current situation, it is possible that the fight will last another two to three years.

"According to the time, it will be soon time to exchange soldiers for aiding North Korea with Tianjin, Denglai and other places." Sun Chengzong stood up and walked towards the hanging map.

"Yes, it will start at the end of this month."

Liang Zhiyuan hurriedly followed behind him, "The two fleets, Bohai and Beihai, which are undergoing restructuring, have begun to allocate personnel to be responsible for this transfer according to the order of the Military Affairs Council."

"The teams that have been confirmed to be transferred back have already been withdrawn from Gangwon, Gyeonggi, Hwanghae and other provinces. By the end of this month at the latest, the teams that are farthest away will be able to rush to Incheon and other ports."

"If this happens, some places will not be able to fight for at least ten days."

Hearing this, Sun Chengzong frowned and said, "So some of the advantages our army had previously held may be lost in this exchange, which is a good thing for Li Ni's rebels."

Liang Zhiyuan was silent.

How could he not know this? However, a new batch of aid-to-North Korean troops must be replaced every six months. This is a military regulation set by the emperor. It can be slightly adjusted, but it cannot be avoided.

The last batch of replacements were all transferred from Liaodong without exception. It was precisely because of this batch of Liao garrison troops entering Korea that the battle situation on the front line was very encouraging.

However, a natural disaster delayed this advantage.

How could Sun Chengzong not see the half-yearly replacement strategy? The emperor wanted to use the Korean War to allow the armies in northern Zhili, Shandong and other places to obtain a group of brave battlefield soldiers, and then promote military reforms in various places.

As the reform of the garrisons in northern Zhili and Liaodong achieved corresponding results, Shandong, under the leadership of Governor Yuan Keli, also quietly began the reform of the garrisons.

This is part of using war to promote reform.

"Mr. Sun Ge."

When Sun Chengzong was thinking about how to adjust the front-line deployment after this change, Zhu Youjian's voice sounded from outside the hall, which made the two of them look at each other with different expressions.

"Your Highness."

"Greetings to Your Highness!"

The moment Zhu Youjian walked into the hall, Sun Chengzong and Liang Zhiyuan bowed to him. In contrast, Zhu Youjian glanced around and walked quickly towards Sun Chengzong.

"Lord Sun, do you have any important matters to deal with right now?"

Zhu Youjian whispered.

"Your Highness, what happened?"

Sun Chengzong frowned slightly.

What happened?

Something big happened!!
Xiong Jung-pil actually came to North Korea! !
Zhu Youjian found it difficult to calm down. Even though he learned from Xiong Tingbi that a secret memorial had been presented to the emperor during this visit, Zhu Youjian still found it hard to accept.

This is so bold.

Leaving the burden of Liaodong unattended, they came to Korea for some matters. If this were discovered by someone with ulterior motives, wouldn't Liaodong be in chaos?
"Lord Sun, follow me to my residence. I have something important to discuss with you." Under the gaze of the two, Zhu Youjian said in a low voice that the news of Xiong Tingbi's visit to the court must not be spread.

"Your Highness, this is..."

Sun Chengzong showed a suspicious expression.

"Master Sun, please come in."

Seeing that Sun Chengzong was unmoved, Zhu Youjian walked forward and directly held Sun Chengzong's arm. When Sun Chengzong frowned, Zhu Youjian whispered something.

Immediately Sun Chengzong's expression changed.

An expression of disbelief!
Under Liang Zhiyuan's puzzled gaze, the two left the main hall. Liang Zhiyuan's intuition told him that something big must have happened, otherwise His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would never act like this. But what could have happened that could make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince act like this?
