Jinyi Night Walk

Ming'er was not as surprised as Xiao Huo. As soon as Xia Xun said this, she fell into deep thought.

What is Yang Xu's purpose in doing this?

Soon, she figured it out.

Since her nephew Xu Jingchang brought Li Tianhen and other important witnesses to the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion, it was equivalent to showing his position, and he would stand by the eldest prince from now on.However, Ming'er was not too worried about this. The Xu family's background was too strong. Even if Zhu Gaoxu succeeded in the heir apparent, the Xu family would at most stand aside, and there would be no greater danger.

But Yang Xu is different, he has completely torn his face with the second prince, he has no way out, and now he wants to fight for military power, not only for the eldest prince, but also for himself, he wants to use his military achievements and power to support the first prince to fight for the heir apparent, The eldest prince used his power and contacts to help Xia Xun achieve success. This is a matter of mutual benefit. If he succeeds, he will have a bright future, and if he fails, he will be ruined. At this time, Yang Xu can only forge ahead.

Furthermore, the East Zhejiang incident must be resolved, not only to give justice to Shuangyuwei, but also to give an explanation to the people of the world.But all of this was caused by the gangsters. The gangsters are still alive and kicking there. First, there will be a big cleansing of the Eastern Zhejiang Navy. Who will command the battle?Qiu Fu has already been defeated, and his reputation has been greatly damaged. It is not yet known whether he will be implicated in the frame-up case. Can the emperor send Zhu Neng who is in the capital again?In order for the emperor to let go of his hands and feet to resolve the Eastern Zhejiang incident, someone had to stand up at this time.

Having figured this out, Ming'er asked, "What are the odds of the Duke winning the case of suppressing the hunchback?"

Xia Xun said: "At present, my Japanese suppression team has not yet formed, so there is no comparison."

Ming'er nodded slightly to express her understanding: "Then what is the Duke's plan?"

Xia Xun said: "First, the Japanese envoys are about to arrive in Beijing. They are here to beg me, Daming, to do business with them. I have always been too generous in the Central Plains. As long as the barbarians come here and respectfully kowtow Let me honor the Kingdom of Heaven, claiming to be a small country under the vassal state, and the trade survey and cooperation can be obtained. Isn’t this not too cheap for them? Since it is a vassal state, it has to bear the responsibilities of the vassal state. During the festival, drag a few carts of junk to make a pilgrimage to the emperor, and then return full of gold and silver!"

There was a smile on Ming'er's face, even if she tried to look quiet again, she was just a young girl after all, her emotions and anger couldn't be contained in her heart, and she couldn't express her emotions.She nodded and said: "I understand, the Duke wants diplomatic power from the emperor, and if he wants to intervene in the affairs of the Ministry of Rites, he wants to let the humble man come forward?"

Xia Xun said: "That's right! They are doing business while robbing things. How can there be such a good thing in the world? Now that he is allowed to do business, there are robbers who rob regardless of the country. They are similar to Chen Zuyi from Nanyang. They are mercenary things, and they also snatched Japanese merchant ships. The Japanese country used to turn a blind eye to their evil deeds because the things they robbed were things that the Japanese wanted but could not get.

Nowadays, the court of Japan will not tolerate the things that the hunched people can justifiably obtain.According to what I know, some daimyos and guardians in Japan also instructed their samurai to pretend to be pirates to rob. Japan's ineffective fight against pirates, in addition to the above reason, is also a major reason: the official returned to the bandit's family.

Now, Japan has received the promise of trade from our court. On this basis, if I can exert more pressure and let the Japanese government return to the government for intelligence and military cooperation in the suppression of bandits, I can attack the bandits as much as possible. Block their troop replenishment, crack down on their pirate dens, and make them a bunch of bereaved dogs. "

Ming'er smiled slightly and said: "The dogs that lose their homes are often more ferocious. If you can't get rid of the arrogance of these ferocious bastards and let them suffer serious damage to their vitality and strength, then the above measures will be useless, at least a year, and at most After five years, they will be able to make a comeback and make a comeback!"

Xia Xun said: "That's right, so I can't all hope that the national government will return to the government. I asked the emperor to grant me the governors of the five provinces. This is the purpose of forming a new army. We must strive for success, and we must be true." After winning the battle, the main force of the crooked bandits can only be wiped out by us!"

The two asked and answered, Ziqi and Xiaodi couldn't get in their mouths at all. Although Xie Xie could understand all kinds of metaphors under the literal meaning, they couldn't express any opinions.Her IQ is definitely not low, the problem is that she is not from a family of military officials, what Xu Minger can touch, master, and understand is out of reach for her.

It involves politics, economy, diplomacy, military and other aspects. No outstanding female thief needs to learn to master these, so she understands it, but can't give any advice.

Ming'er stared at Xia Xun and said, "Then, what is the most difficult thing for the Duke now?"

Xia Xun also stared at her and said, "To defeat the Japanese pirates, you need a strong army."

"Guo Hao thinks, who can fight better than Duke Qi?"

"Princess, the one who can fight the bandits the most may not be the most suitable one, and the most suitable one may not be the one who can fight the most. An iron cavalry that traverses the world can only be slaughtered in the jungle.

People who appear and disappear in the jungle can only be merman fish if they are dragged onto the boat. "

Ziqi couldn't help but said, "What charades are you playing?"

Xia Xun smiled and said, "I'm asking the princess for help."

"Is there a way for the princess?"

Ziqi's eyes lit up, and he immediately grabbed Ming'er's hand, and said, "The princess has a way, and I have to help my family. He is a very brave guy, but the emperor has already nodded, and he can do it again." Is it possible to retreat?"

The princess smiled and said: "Sister, you are being polite. The Duke is just joking. I am a girl. How can I help the Duke on military affairs. However, my Xu family has been in the south of the Yangtze River for a long time, and my father was the commander of the army in the past. If you let me help you think of who is suitable to help the Duke fight this battle, I can think of a few people."

When Ziqi heard this, he said joyfully, "That's it. The emperor is so powerful, why don't you point out the generals under his command in battle? If you want to suppress the bandits, naturally you have to find some generals who are good at fighting to help."

Ming'er thought about it carefully, and asked slowly: "Duke, have you ever heard of Chaohu Yu's family?"

Xia Xun shook his head and said: "If you talk about the heroes and generals of the Beiping Department, I know a little bit about them, but I don't know much about the generals among Yu Jianwen's former ministers. The Chaohu Yu family? It sounds like a family, and I have never heard of it in the capital. .”

Ming'er said: "That's true, because members of the Yu family don't live in Beijing, but in Chaohu Lake under the jurisdiction of Fengyang Mansion."

Speaking of this, she smiled sweetly and said, "Fengyang Mansion was originally under the jurisdiction of Nanzhili. Since you, the governor of the five provinces, are in charge of Nanzhili, it would be perfectly logical to transfer people from the Yu family."

Xia Xun hurriedly said, "Is this Yu family good at water warfare?"

Ming'er: "That's natural. The Yu family of this dynasty originated from Yu Tingyu, the god of Hejian County. Yu Tingyu was not originally named Yu. He was a yellow sheep in Wu'an City (now Ningcheng, Chifeng District, Inner Mongolia)." The main descendant, surnamed Yuli Bo Yawu.His father, Buhua Tiemu'er, was the Marshal of the Wanhu Mansion on the East Road of the Yuan Dynasty. He knew the affairs of the Privy Council and was appointed King of Wuping County.

However, when Emperor Taizu raised his troops, he led the navy under his jurisdiction to join Emperor Taizu. As you know, there is a lot of water in the south of the Yangtze River, and the main battlefield for the world at that time was in the south of the Yangtze River. With great achievements in battle, if we say that the most capable naval general in Ming Dynasty today, it must be the Yu family.In addition, since the Yu family and the navy have established their own, they have nothing to do with the Xidong navy.

Now you are fighting the bandits, and you have to go to sea and go straight back to the lair of the bandits, you must be a water master.And Zhedong Navy has been offended by you all over the place. If you want to find a team that can fight and has nothing to do with the grievances between you and Xidong Navy, then Chaohu Yu's family is the most suitable candidate! "

Xia Xun said happily: "Those who know it are not difficult, those who are difficult don't know. The princess solved my most difficult problem with one word."

Ming'er lightly waved her hand and said: "Don't thank you, the daughter of the Yu family was granted the title of Princess Jinhua by the Emperor Taizu. I also know her well, so I know the Yu family very well. The Yu family is good at water warfare, but After all these years, they have stayed at Chaohu Lake and rarely touched the sea. The sea and the lake are vastly different and cannot be generalized. Although you need a small army, you also need an army that is accustomed to naval battles to be the vanguard."

Xia Xun said: "This is not a problem. The Shuangyu Guard has traveled on the sea for a long time, and he knows the sea conditions, sea routes, and even sea battles like the palm of his hand!"

Ming'er said: "Although that's the case, how many people are there in Shuangyu Guard? It's no problem if you let them go around Shuangyu in circles. If you want them to go out to sea to encircle the gangster's den, there are not enough people on the island. Is it successful? Besides, although they are good at sea battles, the way of sea battles is probably not the same as that of my navy. Back then I..."

She was just about to say, "My elder brother once said..." when he was criticizing the pirates in the East China Sea, but she suddenly thought it was inappropriate to mention him, so she changed her words: "I heard before that the ships used by pirates are different from our navy's warships, so The weapons they are equipped with are also different, and the methods of combat are also different. You should know that if they fight independently, they will fight together with our navy team, and the most important thing is to coordinate."

Xia Xun's face became serious, and he nodded slightly.

Ming'er said: "Emperor Yan of the Sui Dynasty attacked Goryeo three times, and during the Yuan Dynasty's heyday, he also attacked Japan several times. You should know the result. Although what you are fighting now is only crooked bandits, not Japan, but your strength is incomparable. Sui Yan Emperor and the Yuan Dynasty's overwhelming power at that time, if you are careless, your loss can be imagined, I am afraid that at that time, it will look like Duke Qi's defeat today can be regarded as a great victory!"

Xia Xun nodded solemnly and said: "I understand. Although Qiu Fu's mistakes were made in the past, when it was my turn, I still underestimated the enemy. If the princess hadn't reminded me, I would have made a big mistake!"

Ziqi and Xiaodi were straight-minded. The words of the little princess saved Xia Xun's life again. They looked at Ming'er with gratitude.Thank you, but it feels a little weird. After being a couple for several years, doesn't she know Xia Xun?Unless Xia Xun didn't make an enemy for himself, once he established an enemy and made sure that he was right, he would definitely treat him with the most serious and careful attitude, even if the other party seemed much weaker than him.

This battle is so important, will he really underestimate the enemy so carelessly?Why does it always feel a little... a little deliberately set up a stage, to show off to the little princess?

Thank you, little fox, for looking at the two of you suspiciously. All this time, the vague doubts surfaced in your mind again.

Seeing that she was able to help Xia Xun, Ming'er was also very happy. She smiled sweetly and said, "So, you still need a naval general who has actually fought in naval battles to take care of the overall situation for you. Fuzhou Navy The commander is Chi Zhong. He has fought many battles with the Nanyang bandit Chen Zuyi. Obedience and obedience, what happened to hold you back!"

This is really not difficult for those who know. If Xia Xun went out to inquire by himself, he would of course be able to find out which generals were good at fighting in water, but he had to figure out whether these generals were related to the generals of the Eastern Zhejiang Navy, Qiu Fu, and Zhu Gaoxu. It is difficult to have intricate relationships, and time does not allow him to figure out these relationships. If he mistakenly drags someone from other people out of the sea, he will be the resurrection of Yue Wumu, and this battle will undoubtedly be lost.Now that there is Ming'er, the little girl from the family of the first hero of the Ming Dynasty, these problems are easily solved.Since Ming'er dared to recommend these two teams to him, the loyalty of these two teams was absolutely guaranteed.

Xia Xun was overjoyed, and asked carefully about the details of the two navy divisions, one lake and one sea, and with an idea in mind, he got up and sent Ming'er away.

The family sent Ming'er to the gate of the backyard, and the female family members stopped, and Xia Xun walked out alone with her.

Looking at their backs, Xiao Di blurted out: "Master Ming is really amazing, she solved the young master's big problem with just a few words. It would be great if she was a member of our family. The young master has such a big help and won the Xu family. If those bad guys want to touch my young master, they have to think about it."

"Ok?"

The speaker didn't mean it, but the listener meant it. Xie Yufei glanced at her and finally understood what was wrong in her heart.

"No... no..." He... really has the guts?God!That's the Empress's sister!You and Ziqi privately agreed to life, ran from Shandong to Jinling, and you were arrested and beaten up with a bruised nose and a swollen face. If something happens between you and the little princess..." The queen empress wouldn't just stick out her slender finger , scratch your face and let it go?"

Xie Yufei thought anxiously.

"Ming'er!"

"Ok?"

Seeing that there was no one around, Xia Xun suddenly stopped and called out, walking beside him, Ming'er, who had been wanting to speak for a long time but didn't know what to say, raised her head, and was immediately kissed quickly on the lips.

"Ah! You are so bold! Be careful... people see it!" Ming'er blushed all of a sudden, and looked around quickly, no one was there!

The taste of kissing just now..." It was too fast, I didn't feel it!

The little girl was ashamed and afraid, and seemed a little unsatisfied.

Xia Xun looked at her, smiled softly and said, "If you win this battle, the emperor will always reward you.

At that time, I don't want any other rewards, as long as the emperor bestows a relative, do you think it's okay? "

"I... I don't know, what kind of reward do you ask the emperor for, and what do you ask me to do..."

Ming'er lowered her head shyly, her blushing toes began to draw circles on the ground..." But flowers are blooming in her heart...
