Zhu Yuanzhang can see my dreams

Chapter 304 304 I am not happy for him to retire at such a young age
Wang Buli left with the emperor, and the atmosphere in the governor's mansion suddenly became relaxed.

Many veterans started joking, and Xu Da patted Lan Yu on the shoulder and said that he did not lose unjustly.

Even if they lead the troops, they may not be able to take advantage of Wang Buli's intentions.

Especially the "cheap" method of sprinkling poisonous mushroom powder into the grain. After seizing a large amount of grain, which general would not use this batch of grain directly to avoid subsequent transportation of grain by the court?
Lan Yu felt that he had lost a lot. Whoever came to attack Yunnan would have to consult with him on his attack plan, but there were still many loopholes to fill in.

Especially for the defeated troops of Wen Ke and others, the local chieftains should be mobilized to arrest them all and reward them on a per person basis.

In this way, there is no chance that enemy soldiers can burn or cut off the food channel.

After all, the army was really poisoned. Wang Buli's elephant soldiers charged over and caused a great rout of the Ming army. It was probably difficult for the chieftains in Huguang and other places to obey the court's orders.

Today's battle made Xu Da and others aware of the power of a doctor.

These noble Huaixi nobles are a little proud. Fortunately, when we were planning to build Langzhong Hospital, we also contributed money at that time.

It would also be great if many military doctors could be trained in the future to serve in the army.

Ever since Zhu Biao was given the order by his father to hold the power, he immediately took on the role of his father and started a crazy working mode.

Instead, his father rescued him first.

Wang Buli entered the main hall and looked at the pile of memorials that were about to bury Zhu Biao in them.

"Good fellow, the prince is so diligent in his work, I am afraid he will be exhausted."

Hearing the sound, Zhu Biao raised his head from the desk.

Looking at Wang Buli standing there, he knew that they were back from watching a sandbox battle.

So he put down the imperial pen in his hand, stood up, stretched his waist, turned his neck and asked:

"Where's my father?"

"Pooped."

"you lose?"

"How could I lose? It's not really a fight."

Zhu Biao stopped turning his neck and couldn't help but burst into laughter:
"Don't tell me, Lan Yu lost to you."

"Needless to say, with Lan Yu's mind, can he outsmart me?"

After listening to Wang Buli's words, Zhu Biao laughed and walked down:
"Tell me quickly, how did you defeat Lan Yu? I don't think there are any big loopholes in his battle plan!"

Precisely because Zhu Biao saw Lan Yu's battle plan and thought there was nothing wrong with it, he stopped watching Wang Buli's jokes and chose to work overtime in the palace.

"It's true that there are no loopholes, but I can't resist my ruthlessness."

Wang Buli told Zhu Biao about poisonous mushrooms. Zhu Biao was shocked. Is there really such a poisonous thing in the world?

"Otherwise, do you think those toast's poisonous arrows would have scratched your skin and you would not be able to be saved?
There are a lot of poisons in the old forest, and there is no antidote for quick treatment. "

Zhu Biao was even more shocked. He really didn't expect such a surprise when attacking Yunnan.

But what surprised him even more was that Wang Buli used the lives of hundreds of thousands of people as bait to catch Lan Yu.

No.

Even if it were General Xu Da and others, they might not be able to defend against them.

"Brother-in-law, why are you leaning more and more on Jia Xu?"

"Hey, don't say that." Wang Buli pointed at himself nonchalantly:

"Am I worthy of being compared with Jia Wenhe? I'm not even worthy of carrying his shoes.

When that time comes, I may not be able to be cruel. "

"Hahaha."

Zhu Biao laughed a few times, but he also felt that Wang Buli didn't have that sinister spirit in him.

Based on the fierceness he showed in the county government in his early years, he is indeed not worthy of carrying Jia Xu's shoes.

However, Zhu Biao felt that Wang Buli had learned from Jia Xu's cautious spirit and could ensure that he would not be harmed no matter how troubled he was above.

"In this case, I, the Ming Dynasty, should try to avoid fighting with the chieftain.

Instead, let the chieftains who surrendered to my Ming Dynasty deal with those who did not surrender to my Ming Dynasty! "

Zhu Biao immediately came up with the strategy of using barbarians to rule barbarians, which was also the basic policy of the Ming Dynasty towards chieftains.

Wang Buli nodded slightly.

That's it for now.

To surrender to Ming Dynasty, one must do things for Ming Dynasty in order to gain benefits.

How can you raise a dog that only provides meat and does nothing else?

Even if it is a pet dog, it provides emotional value to its owner.

Even if Zhu Yuanzhang had just mentioned that he would recruit guardsmen, there would not be too many of them. Throughout the early Ming Dynasty, there was a shortage of people everywhere.

Zhu Biao took a rare stroll for a while and then said:

"In my opinion, it takes a little longer to prepare for the war in Yunnan, but once the decision is made to start the war, the elite troops will immediately advance and the attack will catch the King of Liang off guard.

And I feel that since the road is not easy to navigate, there is no need to send 300,000 troops or something like that, bluffing is enough. "

Regarding Zhu Biao's arrangement, Wang Buli was mostly encouraging.

At present, Zhu Biao has completed his internship period and has first taken charge. This is the time to work hard and be full of energy.

Wang Buli didn't bother to persuade him to take more rest, as his body was easily damaged at such a young age.

Do you think you have the physical fitness to resist your father? He is a person who can survive even begging from a state like that at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. Who can compare with him?
Zhu Biao thought of something else, and then stepped forward and handed a battle report to Wang Buli, saying proudly:

"Look, our army has always been victorious. This time we will definitely wipe out the remaining Tibetan troops."

Wang Buli looked at the battle report. After the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty adapted to the plateau state, they were indeed brave and they all fought in the Sichuan-Tibet area.

"My Ming Dynasty is indeed invincible." Wang Buli praised first, and then put forward his point of view:
"But the advance is still too rapid. Many soldiers' bodies will suffer more serious reactions if they enter Tibet. My suggestion is to stop as soon as possible and leave some people to garrison there first."

Zhu Biao still attached great importance to Wang Buli's words. The smile on his face disappeared a lot: "Are you saying that you will still get mountain sickness after adapting to it?"

Wang Buli thought about it for a while and walked to the first step: "My soldiers of the Ming Dynasty have adapted to the high mountains here."

Then he went up two more steps to praise: "Some soldiers are physically strong. In the mood of successive victories, there is no problem in standing here and fighting."

Finally, Wang Buli stepped up the third step: "But once I get here, I can't breathe, and my body needs to adapt again.

Otherwise, if they march quickly, the soldiers' bodies will eventually be unable to withstand it, and they will collapse immediately. Even if stronger people come back, they will be in danger of short-lived. "

At this time, Wang Buli was already standing where the emperor should be, and Zhu Yuanzhang happened to come in from outside the hall and saw this scene.

Wang Buli stood in front of the emperor's imperial case, facing Zhu Biao who was looking up at him at the foot of the steps.

Without waiting for Zhu Biao's reaction, Wang Buli saw Lao Zhu coming and hurriedly ran down the steps and saluted Lao Zhu.

Damn, for a highly sensitive person like Lao Zhu, Wang Buli still felt a little nervous.

Zhu Biao also quickly turned around and saluted Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know what the two were doing, so he didn't do Wang Buli's rudeness.

When he sat on the dragon chair, Zhu Biao quickly explained what Wang Buli was doing before asking.

"The higher you stand, the more out of breath you get, as if you were drowning?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Wang Buli and saw him nodding. He felt that he understood the principle of altitude sickness.

It turned out to be the case.

People have to inhale and exhale when they are alive, but once they are drowned, they cannot do such a thing and they have to die.

"So your suggestion is to let Deng Yu and others accept it as soon as they see fit?"

"Yes, the Ming Dynasty's military power has already frightened the northwest and other places. If His Majesty does not have the intention to immediately send troops to occupy Uzang and other places, then do not pursue prematurely."

Today's Ming Dynasty has inherited the model of the Yuan Dynasty in its management of Tibet. They have a high degree of autonomy and do not even have ministers or a golden urn drawing lot system.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not immediately agree with Wang Buli's words.

He just asked Zhu Biao to write a letter to Deng Yu, telling him not to pursue urgently, but to take it slow.

At present, there are only a few remnant Tibetan leaders left. They fled into Uzang and asked the Oris military and civilian marshal's office to hand over these people.

Those who dare to intercept and kill the tribute mission must be severely punished!

The remaining Tibetans are safe and sound, otherwise the Ming Dynasty will conquer them again.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not ask Deng Yu to come back immediately. Instead, he had to wait for the Oris Army and People's Marshal's Mansion and others to hand over the escaped Tibetans. Otherwise, he would lead a large army to go in and arrest them.

Now that he had finally entered in one go, Zhu Yuanzhang was not willing to give up when he was ready. He still wanted to take actual control of Uszang and other areas.

This year's war is to teach them a very profound lesson, so that the security and stability of the northwest region can be ensured. Wang Buli understood Zhu Yuanzhang's meaning.

You acted so ruthlessly on the sand table just now, why do you have to act like a woman when it comes to reality?

The imperial court has spent so much manpower, material and financial resources, how can it be withdrawn just because hundreds of people are unwell?
Once a war starts, it cannot be ended easily.

"Just now we talked to Buli on the road about controlling Shuidong and other places along the line. What do you think?"

"My son, I think it's very good. If we separate the troops in various places and go deep into the mountains, the barbarians will change in an instant. The roads are blocked, it is inconvenient, and it is difficult to control them. If someone starts a rebellion, they cannot be eliminated immediately."

Zhu Biao talked eloquently about ways to control traffic.

In fact, had it not been for his conversation with Wang Buli, Lao Zhu would have discovered that it would have taken several years to correct this problem.

"What about you?"

Upon hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's inquiry, Wang Buli pointed to the map beside him and said:
"Huguang is too big. After we have completely conquered Yunnan and other places, we still need to draw the border between Guizhou and Guizhou. Otherwise, under the interlocking situation, there will be problems of neglect at some junctions in the future, and various officials will shirk things. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang also knew that the territory of Huguang was too large and would need to be redivided and erected stone monuments in the future.

"It is better to start setting up health centers now to strengthen control of the surrounding areas and at the same time strengthen commercial exchanges with local chieftains and other people."

"Ah."

Zhu Yuanzhang responded and sent for Hu Weiyong.

Let him take a good look at where to mobilize soldiers, move them to Huguang and other places, and control the roads.

Relocation is a characteristic of agricultural society. Forcing large numbers of people to relocate is very easy to offend people.

Therefore, those who are currently migrating are mostly sinners, or prisoners of Zhang Shicheng and others, in order to prevent them from continuing to form old forces in their hometown.

"Your Majesty, why not ask He Zhen to recruit old troops in the countryside to serve the imperial court."

Wang Buli had never heard of He Zhen's name and just looked at Zhu Yuanzhang.

After the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, in order to avoid a large number of refugees, many generals who had surrendered to Lao Zhu not only took back their old troops, but also collected their family members to show their loyalty.

But most of them were targeted at the soldiers of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, which is an old routine.

"He Zhen."

Zhu Yuanzhang muttered this name.

To be honest, He Zhen is also a fierce man.

He lost his father when he was young and received strict education from his mother. He was good at fencing.

First he worked as an official in the Dayuan Salt Farm, and when it spread to Lingnan, he gave up his official position and returned home, where he organized local organizations to protect his hometown.

When he became powerful, he was granted an official title by the Yuan Dynasty, until he controlled all places in Guangdong and became a veritable king of Guangdong.

It's true that he has understood the trick of recruitment.

Someone suggested that he imitate Zhao Tuo and become king, but he was killed.

By the way, register the household registration, soldiers, horses, money and food of all counties and counties in Guangdong. When the Ming army arrives, they will immediately send envoys to ask for surrender.

He has been serving as a civil servant of the Ming Dynasty and has never had contact with soldiers. He just became an official last year.

Before he was fifty, he went home to enjoy his happiness.

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little hesitant about He Zhen returning to his hometown to enjoy the blessings at a young age.

Why do some people really not want to make progress?

You must know that before He Zhen surrendered, he had a huge power in Guangdong. He occupied Guangdong for many years and his old tribes were everywhere.

And the He family is not a small family.

Otherwise, why could he easily organize a large number of armed personnel to protect the countryside?

But He Zhen felt that Lao Zhu didn't understand him at all. Although he looked like a warrior, he was actually a scholar at heart.

He Zhen got along well with Song Lian, Fang Xiaoru and others, and they discussed Confucianism together.

"Well, let Lao He do this. I feel a little unhappy about going home and enjoying it at such a young age."

He Zhen was also unable to retire. He retired three times in a row before being named Dongguan Bo.

Then, before He Zhen had time to enjoy his retirement life, the second year of his knighthood was over.

All his descendants died in the Lan Yu Case.

His brother was afraid that it would affect him, so he was forced to rebel directly. He killed more than 300 officers and soldiers and ran to the island. However, he did not last long and was captured and executed by the government.

Zhu Yuanzhang then thought for a moment before ordering:

"Biao'er, write a letter to He Zhen. You have just been working on your own and are in trouble. Once the matter is settled, let his son come to the East Palace to attend you."

"Yes."

Wang Buli thought that Lao Zhu was tying the He family to the prince's boat!

As soon as Zhu Biao died, the forces that had previously relied on the prince were purged on a large scale by Zhu Yuanzhang, especially a group of people close to Lan Yu.

None of them can escape.

Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to be paving the way for Zhu Biao's people and gave him a top-notch martial arts group in the Ming Dynasty as the main force to completely eliminate the Bei Yuan Dynasty. However, the prosperity and wealth of so many people were pinned on Zhu Biao alone.

His death disrupted Zhu Yuanzhang's plan.

He was a highly sensitive old man again, and the martial arts group prepared for Zhu Biao was slaughtered.

So these guys are all screwed.

Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking that Guangdong was not far from Bozhou and other places. When the time came, people from Guangdong would have to provide food and grass, so He Zhen had better not be idle.

So the prince's letter was quickly sent to Dongguan.

It is false to say that the He family's mansion is magnificent, but it is really not short of money, not to mention that He Zhen did everything right.

He Zhen, who was eating lychees and watching singing and dancing, received a letter from Nanjing.

Shocked, he was a little dazed, and he quickly wiped his hands and took the box handed over by the messenger.

"Dad, is it possible that His Majesty asked you to become an official again?" He Rong asked.

He Zhen waved his hand and told everyone to disperse. Then he opened the box and found that it was written by Prince Zhu Biao. His tense body suddenly relaxed a lot.

"Letter from the Prince."

He Zhen sat lazily on the chair again, making sure that the lacquer opening was not damaged before tearing open the letter.

He Rong had many questions in his mind, but he did not bother his father to read the letter at this time.

Zhu Biao was a generous and gentle man, but he was not at all the same temperament as his father.

In the letter, He Zhen's achievements were first mentioned. Compared with other places in the Central Plains, Guangdong and other places had few wars, so they had a large population.

At present, the imperial court wants to attack Yunnan, but in order to prepare in advance, it needs to build new guard posts in Huguang and other places to protect the road. He hopes that He Zhen can help him gather some old troops and move with his family members.

The imperial court would not let them migrate in vain, as many rewards were given to them, which were more than those from the Jiangnan area when they migrated to the Central Plains.

Finally, at the end of the letter, he mentioned that after finishing this matter, he hoped that He Rong could go to the East Palace to work for him.

He Zhen grinned and handed the letter to his son to read.

If Lao Zhu gave the order, He Zhen would really feel a little resentful.

I'm so cooperative and sensible, and I don't need you to drink to relieve your military power. Your Majesty, why don't you trust me?
Now that the prince asked him to do a small favor, the meaning of the matter was different.

He also knows that the prince has just started to work independently. If he wants to make some achievements, I must support the future prince!
It was precisely because He Zhen stayed in Nanjing for nine years that he knew how secure Zhu Biao's position as prince was.

If his eldest son goes to serve in the East Palace, he will be a proper member of the prince's team, and his future will be limitless.

He Zhen must take care of this face.

"Dad?" He Rong blinked: "How could such a good thing happen to me?"

He Zhen kicked his son: "Look at your worthless look, this matter must be handled by His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Hey hey hey."

Looking at his smiling son, He Zhen was also quite high-spirited.

Behind his hands, he began to call people to announce the news, saying that he would summon the old troops to drive for the prince and bring as many family members as possible. Not only would the court reward him on a per-capita basis, but he would also give a certain amount of moving expenses, so that everyone could sign up as soon as possible without waiting.

After finishing the command, He Rong just asked in a low voice: "Dad, when I get to the East Palace, besides serving the prince, who should I be friends with?"

He Zhen blurted out without even thinking:

"When you go to Nanjing, don't show off, just wait for the prince to ascend the throne.

During this period, he made good friends with the Prince Consort, Bu Li. Even though he was only a ninth-rank official now, he was the prince's confidant and might be the prime minister of the Ming Dynasty in the future. "
