Chapter nine hundred and eighty fourth complex disturbance(1/2)
This memorial appeared in the Silijian and the cabinet, and was quickly copied and sent to the direction of Jingdong Daying.
The seriousness of this memorial is not the joint name of these big names, but the content in the memorial.
Now the Cabinet and the Sixth Ministry are still on their way back, and the Cabinet Secretary can't wait to copy it, which shows that it is extraordinary.
After the banquet, Zhu Xu's carriage stayed in Jingdong Camp for a while and set off with Zhang Yun to return to Beijing.
The basic purpose of this martial arts performance has been achieved, and the subsequent influence will slowly ferment. In the next ten years, I am afraid that the Southeast Peninsula will be very quiet.
Japan is now trapped in the Shimahara Rebellion. Even without Zhu Xu's secret support, the Tokugawa shogunate will take three to five years or even longer to solve the problem. It will use hundreds of thousands of troops in advance and continue to consume a lot of national strength and is unable to invade North Korea again.
The only trouble the Ming Dynasty faces now is Chahar!
Chahar's overall strength is not strong now, and it is difficult to deal with it. They are nomadic peoples and can come and go at will. If they cannot win in one battle, they will be like Chengzu. The Five Conquests of the Desert have not been able to do their best. More than ten years after their death, the Ming Dynasty has never recovered from now on!
Zhu Xu must win and completely solve Chahar! Otherwise, the Ming Dynasty will not have enough strength to deal with Chahar in the next ten years.
Judging from the information Zhu Xu obtained, although Huang Taiji has gained a foothold in Moxi and has received support from Junggar, he has not yet been able to counterattack. Junggar not only has internal troubles, but also threats around him are everywhere. If the Junggar Khanate, which was once prosperous in history, has a decades left to go.
Therefore, the three sides encircle it is possible to completely wipe out Chahar and place the south of the desert into the territory of the Ming Dynasty!
It was not as grand as when I came, and I rode in a dragon chassis, but took a carriage. In the carriage, Zhu Xu lay on Zhang Yun's legs, still frowned and thought.
Dorgon and Shenyang have 50,000 coalition forces, Man Gui from Tumu Fort, plus the 3,000 iron armored cavalry and 200 cannons, all of which can be gathered for 40,000. Zu Dashou's Tainingwei and Korqin and other coalition forces can barely have 40,000. This is the 130,000 army!
There has been no such large-scale war in the Ming Dynasty for many years, and most of the cavalry are!
Zhu Xu squinted his eyes, clapped his legs rhythmically with his right hand, and his heart kept wandering.
"Nickru, you should be back to Chahar soon?" Zhu Xu whispered. He was curious. What would Lin Danhan do at this time? Should he wait and see if he wants to take action, or to discuss peace?
After a while, Cao Huachun said from outside the curtain: "Emperor, Andashan has been doing a lot recently. Some people inside and outside the court have been found to have received bribes and sold out their intelligence to him. However, the impact is not great. The Jinyiwei asked for instructions on whether to clear it."
Zhu Xu's expression was normal and said, "No, let them let the Jinyiwei stare at it. Hum... I'm sending an order to Chahar: Wang Zhongxiao is great, and the guards are rewarded. He gave him python clothes and 30,000 silver. He immediately went to the capital to meet the saint and receive the reward."
Cao Huachun outside was stunned for a while and said, "Abide by the order."
Zhang Yun blinked, looked at Zhu Xu's face, and said in confusion: "The emperor... isn't he going to attack Chahar? In this way, will that King Shunping come again?"
Zhu Xu looked at her, reached out to touch her pretty face, and said, "There is always an excuse to start a war, this is an excuse."
Zhang Yun was extremely smart and immediately understood. He said happily with a pretty face: "I understand. The emperor must not dare to come, and he happened to use this excuse to attack him."
Zhu Xu smiled without saying a word. He looked out the window, but he hoped that Lin Danhan would come boldly, and he would hang his head on the flagpole without hesitation.
But with his bad reputation as "usually killing envoys", Lin Danhan should not have entered Beijing 100%.
pity.
Zhu Xu sighed in his heart, and slowly closed his eyes and pretended to sleep with a slightly raised corner of his mouth.
At this time, Andashan was also on the way back to Beijing, sitting in the carriage, like an ant on a hot pan, anxious.
It has to be admitted that Chahar was afraid of Jiannu. Even though Jiannu was no longer the same as before, when he heard that Dorgon had led his troops north, Andashan was still frightened and had no control.
There were two personal guards on both sides, one of whom said: "Taiji, this matter must be notified as soon as possible. The Ming people only had sharp artillery, but the artillery was bulky and difficult to move in the desert. Our biggest threat was the Jiannu's cavalry!"
Another said: "Taiji, if the Jiannu cavalry is equipped with artillery, we are afraid that we will lose."
Andashan glanced at the two of them, with a calm face and no words.
Except for those who have a few people, no one knows the real situation of Chahar better than him. Due to the deliberate blockade of the Ming Dynasty and the continuous provocation, Chahar seems to have continued to grow, but in fact his real combat power has not increased much. It is already the limit to be able to get 30,000 people to fight! If the wounded soldiers are eliminated, there will be only 20,000 people!
How to deal with the Ming Dynasty's more than 100,000 coalition forces with 20,000 people!
Andashan also complained about Lin Dankhan at this time. He was too anxious and did not know how to hide his strength and keep a low profile. So early on, it aroused the fear of the Ming Dynasty and was determined to attack. If he could stabilize for another three to five years, the Ming Dynasty's national strength would be weak and Chahar recovered, and one would rise and fall, so why fear the Ming Dynasty!
‘I hope the national teacher has a solution.’
After a while, Andashan still didn't say anything and sighed softly in his heart.
Andashan was worried, and the two North Korean kings were even more troubled and had difficulty making a choice.
They are very familiar with the situation of the Ming Dynasty. They have been helping North Korea since ten years ago. They can be said to have done their best, let alone defending North Korea in the early days and the three wars with Japan fully demonstrated the Ming Dynasty's determination to protect North Korea.
But now the Ming Dynasty has suffered continuous natural disasters and the national treasury is empty, so it is necessary to disarmament to save expenses. They also understand the huge plans of the Ministry of War and the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty. After all, they cannot blame the Ming Dynasty for withdrawing from it at this time.
But it is related to the continued reign of North Korea. No matter what, they are unwilling to let the 30,000 Ming Dynasty troops stationed in Pyongyang leave.
They must urgently discuss with the country and decide what to do before the Ming Dynasty cabinet’s disarmament plan is determined!
They were still on the road, and one by one, one by one, one by one, would fly to Shanhaiguan, and then turn to North Korea at one post station.
Bi Ziyan and other cabinet ministers returned to the capital earlier than Zhu Xu.
Bi Ziyan's class room, he looked at the memorial handed over by Zheng Youyuan, with a serious expression.
Zheng Youyuan looked at Bi Ziyan with a calm expression and said, "Sir, this is a handwritten copy. I was originally in the Silijian. I believe the emperor will see Jian Rui soon, and I wonder if this incident will anger him."
Bi Ziyan didn't say anything, and looked at the memorial quietly.
The content of this memorial is about the firearm that just performed martial arts, that is, the artillery. The memorial said, "The success or failure of the battlefield depends on the hearts of the people, not on the sharp weapon. The huge firearm is that it hurts the harmony of the sky, and it is not done by the saints." "One shot flew out, dozens of people had broken limbs and arms, and their lives were like grass, and the sky was filled with fire, and they screamed and died. How could they be virtuous?'
Thousands of words are used to sprinkle, which means that the artillery developed by the Military Arts Bureau is too powerful and hurts the world. It should not exist in the world. If it is requested to be banned, it will never be turned on and used again.
Of course, they didn't say that, and they also named a few sects.
If these cannons fell into the hands of rebels or were hostile to the country, how could the Ming Dynasty resist? If the rebels and the enemy attacked the capital, what would the imperial palace be like?
Therefore, before it leaked, the court was asked to ban the ban, burn the drawings, arrest the craftsmen, and eliminate future troubles!
Bi Ziyan looked at the memorial and read it twice. His face changed several times, but he never opened his mouth.
Not long after, Sun Chengzong walked in with the same manuscript, looked at Bi Ziyan and said, "Have you read it?"
Bi Ziyan put down the memorial, sighed, and said, "The Six Ministers did not express their opinions, but several ministers agreed very much and wrote the auxiliary memorial."
Zheng Youyuan brought a stool to Sun Chengzong and quietly stepped out.
Sun Chengzong also put down his memorial, looked at Bi Ziyan, pondered for a while, and rarely spoke.
Bi Ziyan and Sun Chengzong's eyes met, and then continued to remain silent.
Both of them are scholars and from Jinshi. Now they are well-read poetry and books and are full of talents. If they had not entered the officialdom, they would have been a great scholar and a great man.
Bi Ziyan is a thorough literati. From the bottom of his heart, he agrees with this memorial. The power of artillery displayed by the Great Martial Arts is too terrible. He didn't feel it before, but now he is a little scary, which makes him feel dangerous and worried.
Although Sun Chengzong was a civil servant, he had led troops for many years. Although he knew the importance of weapons, today's artillery of martial arts made him feel palpitations. He was still worried that this has been the case in just a few years. If it continues to develop...
Just thinking about it makes me shudder!
After a while, Sun Chengzong spoke: "The emperor is determined to develop firearms and believes that they are the decisive weapon of future wars."
Bi Ziyan looked up at Sun Chengzong, with a calm expression and no words. He understood what Sun Chengzong meant, so he didn't speak.
Confucianism governs the world with "benevolence and virtue". Anyone who does not conform to the word "benevolence and virtue" will be rejected as "evil" and is not the "right way", and then they will be killed.
But the current situation is that His Majesty the Emperor is extremely keen on "strange skills and lust". They are powerless to oppose it, and even simple constraints cannot be done. Especially in some military and national affairs, because his views and ideas are often confirmed to be correct later, they are even less confident.
You know, this person has never missed it now!
Not once!
Facing such a stunning and stubborn emperor, it is quite difficult for them to be so arrogant.
Bi Ziyan, Sun Chengzong and others often feel fortunate. Although this person is extremely powerful and cannot hear any voice, he is not Taizu or Chengzu. He does not kill indiscriminately. At least he has never lacked the etiquette he should have for his close ministers around him.
After a while, Bi Ziyan took a deep breath and said, "The cabinet will not express its opinion on this matter."
"Not expressing one' is not a statement.
Sun Chengzong looked at Bi Ziyan and reminded: "You know the emperor's character. If you don't express your opinion, it's equivalent to opposing it. The emperor... has an account book in his heart."
When the emperors are generous today, they are shocking. They just wave their hands to many things that they think are "disobedience" and don't take them seriously at all. But in their opinion, they are particularly "calculated" in some small things that are not worth caring about, and they often settle accounts after the fall.
Sun Chengzong did not say it thoroughly. He had already vaguely felt that the Ganqing Palace was dissatisfied with this "Shougong Bi" and could not be said to be dissatisfied. It should be a "question" of his ability. If the time comes and the opportunity is right, Bi Ziyan will "suddenly" retire and return home. He would not be very surprised.
Bi Ziyan also knew that there were some things he should stick to, but he would stick to the end without hesitation. He could only understand Sun Chengzong's kindness, waved his hand, and said, "It's not the time to talk about these things now. Let's continue to hold a meeting and we must reach this year's 'new policy' framework as soon as possible to avoid people's hearts from floating and dying."
Seeing this, Sun Chengzong didn't say much. He looked at Bi Ziyan and wanted to speak but stopped, but finally left.
He originally wanted to give Bi Ziyan a clear idea about Chahar, but when he saw Bi Ziyan had a lot of worries, he swallowed it back.
The cabinet is now busy and hastily held meetings with the six ministers, prime ministers, governors and other places to discuss. They are all worried that Zhu Xu, who is freed, will intervene, and then they will have no say. They will have too many things to do, so they are taking the initiative.
The adults are under tremendous pressure, fighting against each other on various issues and then concessions, hoping to reach a "new policy" plan that all parties agree with and can continue to move forward as soon as possible.
The people outside the capital were naturally lively. The Ming Dynasty performed martial arts and all nations came to pay tribute. This was a sign of prosperity, with firecrackers ringing and noisy.
When Zhu Xu entered the city gate, he saw the memorial and a brief message sent by the Sili Supervisor.
Sitting in the shaking carriage, Zhu Xu was filled with emotion when he looked at the memorial.
The deep hatred of "strange skills and lust" and the infinite elevation of "benevolence" should be a serious shackle for the development of feudal dynasties. This kind of "shackle" appears in all aspects, and the most conspicuous one is the belittlement and obstacle of "craftsmanship". When it comes to firearms, it rises to fear.
‘The artillery today is probably the same as the atomic bombs in later generations, which makes people fear and fear…’
Zhu Xu could understand the concerns in this memorial, but these people did not explain another issue. Does the Ming Dynasty have banned it? Does it mean that other countries will not appear? What if it appears? How to defend the Ming Dynasty at that time?
This is a completely deprived of martial arts, self-sufficiency, stagnation, and even malicious regression to seek death!
Zhu Xu shook and recalled some unbearable memories. He suddenly became angry. He looked up at the front and said, "What's the attitude on the cabinet?"
Cao Huachun sat outside and heard this and said, "The cabinet has not responded yet, I guess he is staying at the Central Committee and not sending it."
To be continued...
