I'm only seven years old, Lao Zhu, you let me supervise the country?

Chapter 354 The new army belongs!Zhu Yunxuan’s decision!
"Zhen'er, do you think that we are not suitable to lead the new army in the Northern Expedition?"

Lao Zhu frowned and said: "The new army's combat power is unparalleled in the world. We say they are going to fight, but it is no different from going on an outing."

"Don't worry, Xi'er."

Lao Zhu naturally knew Zhu Yunzhen's various hidden worries, but on the one hand, the fact of the Northern Expedition really tickled his heart, and on the other hand, he did not think that his body was so bad.

Nowadays, all roads in Ming Dynasty are national highways with cement pavements, which are smoother than ever before.

Traveling is not too convenient at all, it is not as hard as marching in the past.

It's just that... Lao Zhu did overestimate his own physical condition. Even riding a carriage along the way would inevitably be bumpy, and when an army marches, it is always inevitable to take wild roads.

The conditions are even more difficult.

Zhu Yunzhen really didn't want to waste Lao Zhu's short lifespan in the Northern Expedition, which was bound to win.

"Grandpa Huang, my fourth uncle's lifelong wish is nothing more than 'to seal the wolf and live in Xu'."

Zhu Yunxuan continued to persuade: "My grandson has actually not planned the Northern Expedition in the past ten years. This time it is also because Bei Yuan is really shameless."

"It was only then that my grandson decided to go to Beiyuan."

"If I miss this opportunity, I'm afraid my fourth uncle's wish will not be fulfilled!"

"My grandson means that with just this battle, the Ming Dynasty will be determined in Mobei!"

Hearing Zhu Yunzhen's words, Lao Zhu and Zhu Di's eyes flashed at the same time, and their expressions were shocked.

He quickly asked: "Xi'er, are you serious about this?!"

In response, Zhu Yunzhen naturally nodded in the affirmative, and then slowly expressed his plan.

A magnificent blueprint unfolded in the minds of the two of them.

"For this Northern Expedition, I plan to gather a full 50 troops in Peiping!"

"With the addition of [-] new troops, the goal is to defeat the Northern Yuan Dynasty in one fell swoop! Completely solve the problem that has been the Ming Dynasty's thorn in the side for many years!"

Who is the real thorn in the side of Ming Dynasty today?

It must be Bei Yuan.

The Yuan Dynasty was once an orthodox and unified dynasty in China. Especially today, many of the elders and children of the big landowners in the south of the Yangtze River still miss the good things of the Yuan Dynasty.

Although Beiyuan is now relatively safe, there is a reason to start a war to destroy the country.

From the perspective of Western countries, legally speaking, the Ming Dynasty and the Northern Yuan Dynasty both have the right to claim the land of China.

It's just that Beiyuan's claim is weak now.

But compared to other countries around it, Beiyuan is the only one that can pose a threat to the Ming Dynasty!
How could it be possible that Lao Zhu and Zhu Yunzhen didn't regard him as a thorn in their flesh?

But unlike Lao Zhu's radical Northern Expedition strategy, Zhu Yunxuan's idea was to focus on development at the beginning. When he became stronger, he could capture Beiyuan without any effort.

Ten years are enough for Ming Dynasty to reach a new level.

At that time, in the Ming Dynasty, if you just move your fingers, Beiyuan will have to kneel down and bow your head and bow.

But now, Daming must concentrate all his strength!

With 50 old troops and [-] new troops, with such a huge scale, Zhu Yunzhen's goal was to completely defeat Bei Yuan in one battle!

Lao Zhu felt the ambition in Zhu Yunxuan's heart.

He silently assessed his body again, and finally couldn't help but sigh softly, shook his head slowly and said, "Well, since you are so ambitious, Zuo'er, then we won't cause any trouble to you."

"If something goes wrong during the Northern Expedition, I'm afraid this Northern Expedition will end hastily."

Lao Zhu also knows his importance.

If Lao Zhu died on the way to the Northern Expedition, there would be chaos in the court, and Zhu Yunxu would have to send new troops back to the court.

The armies of the Ming Dynasty's Northern Expedition must also return to their original positions.

To prevent those who are interested in taking this opportunity to incite the army to rebel and attack the Ming capital in one fell swoop.

And this person might be Zhu Di who is standing by!But if old Zhu An stays safely in the capital and does not go anywhere, Zhu Di will not be able to rebel even if he gives him a hundred courages.

Even less likely to succeed.

After all, as long as there is no unrest, the New Army will never listen to Zhu Di.

But if Lao Zhu died during the Northern Expedition.

The new army is leaderless, and at this time, if Zhu Di deceives the new army, using Zhu Yunzhen's safety in the capital as an excuse, he can coax them to counterattack the capital.

By then, wouldn't it be very possible for him to fish in troubled waters and succeed?
Even though it seems that Zhu Di no longer has the intention to rebel, Zhu Yunzhen still has to guard against it.

After the incident with King Jin, Zhu Yunxuan has grown up a bit. Sometimes, even a dead person needs to be on guard!
"Dad, are you serious about this?!"

Unlike Lao Zhu's helplessness, when Zhu Di heard this, he really wanted to jump up.

Cheerful clapping.

But as soon as he jumped, it involved the wound when he was hung up and beaten by Lao Zhu. Zhu Di grinned in pain, but there was a happy smile on his face.

Obviously, Zhu Di was in a good mood.

"Fourth Uncle, for this Northern Expedition, the new army will be left to you."

"Why don't you give in to your fourth uncle?"

"Repeatedly made extraordinary achievements!"

Zhu Yunxi said with a slight smile that giving Zhu Di the opportunity to command the new army was also the result of his careful consideration.

Indeed, Zhu Di was right, he knew Bei Yuan very well.

Even among his original troops, there were many clans from the north, and Zhu Di had already achieved the achievement of "sealing the wolf and living in Xu" in his original history.

Now that there is a more powerful new army, Zhu Yunxi does not believe that Zhu Di will come back from defeat.

You can rest assured.

Moreover, Zhu Di also has Zhu Gaoxu and others who can help him.

But what about Lao Zhu?
His original loyal confidants and capable ministers have long since returned to the West!Although there are still people like Fu Youde, Feng Sheng, and Lan Yu in the court, doesn't the army of 50 people need other generals?

Today's Ming Dynasty is in a period of alternation between old and new talents.

It’s time to give young people some opportunities.

"Don't worry! This time, if I don't break through the Beiyuan Royal Court, I won't have the shame to come back!"

Zhu Di said enthusiastically.

It also made Zhu Yunxuan feel more relieved.

After handling the affairs of the new army, Zhu Yunxuan began to deal with other matters.

The Northern Expedition is not that simple.

Logistics, scheduling, autumn harvest...many matters are all crowded together.

Even the navy wanted to come and get involved.

But where is the sea area in Beiyuan?Xu Huizu, who finally returned from his trip, was kicked away by Zhu Yunzhen and asked to continue training at sea.

The Ming Dynasty's navy is becoming increasingly powerful.

The accumulation of shipbuilding technology has become more and more mature, and Zhu Yunzhen has plans to advance the process of navigation discovery.

But in front of him, he still had to focus on the conquest of Beiyuan.

Zhu Yunxu was really busy. The strategic deployment of the 50-strong army almost kept Zhu Yunxu in the Military Affairs Office all day and night.

Discuss strategy with the generals.

How should the 50-strong army go north, what route should the logistics be taken, and where should they assemble.

Where is the core pastoral area of ​​Beiyuan?
There are so many things worth discussing!
