Emperor Zhengde of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 61
Forbidden City.

Inside the Qianqing Palace.

Yu Huatian, governor of Xichang, stood in front of Zhu Houzhao with his hands down. On the table in front of Zhu Houzhao was a memorial from Hulong Villa.

It is a memorial from the God of Tiedan.

Zhu Houzhao turned his head to look at Yuhuatian, and asked, "I have a question for you."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

"If you were to compete with the God of Tiedan, how likely are you to win him?"

Yu Huatian understood Zhu Houzhao's meaning, but he knew the martial arts attainments of Lord Tie Dan, so he replied unequivocally: "Reporting to Your Majesty, I have no chance of winning!"

"Is Marquis Tiedan really high in martial arts?"

"Report to Your Majesty, God of Tiedan broke into the Tatar army camp alone, and took the head of a general from a 30-strong army. not."

"Besides, Marquis Marquis of Iron Bravery is known as the best in the world, and his ministers are not as good as him."

Zhu Houzhao brought over the memorial of Tie Dan Shenhou, and continued to ask: "What if it is Cao Zhengchun instead?"

"If Governor Cao fights with his life, it is estimated that there is a [-]% chance of winning."

Zhu Houzhao opened the memorial and said to Yuhuatian: "Hulong Mountain Villa made great contributions in the battle of destroying the Tatars. The four subordinates of Lord Tiedan entered the capital quietly, and wanted to discuss here. an official position."

"Is that so, Ouchi Secret Agent?"

Yu Huatian had met the four subordinates of the Marquis of Tiedan once, and had secretly inquired about their details.

These four subordinates regard themselves as Ouchi spies, but they have never been canonized or awarded by the emperor. They came to Beijing this time in the hope of being canonized by the emperor.

If they receive the official position of the Great Inner Guard conferred by His Majesty, and each of them is given a badge of the Great Inner Guard, they will have no disadvantages when they walk in the rivers and lakes.

As long as they show their waist card, it will be better than their efforts in the past ten years.

"How much do you know about these four people?" Zhu Houzhao asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I don't know much about the four of you. It is said that all the characters in their Iron Brave God Hou Tianxuan Di Huangzi are world-class in martial arts."

"Well, they are already in the capital, go and reward them for me!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

Zhu Houzhao still kept the badges of the four inner guards in front of Yuhuatian.

"The last time they wiped out the Tatars and went deep into the desert, they made outstanding achievements. They were conferred the rank of second-rank guards with swords."

"The minister obeys the order!"

The second-rank guard with a knife is the official position of a general, and the official residence is from the fifth rank, commonly known as the big inner guard.

After Yuhuatian received the decree, he left the Forbidden City.

In Hulong Mountain Villa, the four subordinates of Lord Tiedan are not qualified to enter the palace. As for asking them to enter the palace to face the saint, they are not qualified yet.

Except for Dongxichang, Jinyiwei, the cabinet ministers and the six ministries are eligible to enter the palace to face the saints. In addition, no one can enter the palace without the emperor's edict.

Zhu Houzhao canonized them as second-rank guards with swords, which is already the greatest commendation for them.

Just after Yuhuatian left the palace, Cao Zhengchun, the governor of the East Factory, hurried over.

"Report to Your Majesty, the coastal defense and border customs are urgent!"

"what?"

Zhu Houzhao frowned tightly: "Coastal defense is urgent? Didn't I allocate funds to Qi Jingtong to repair the warship? Where's the trained sailor?"

Cao Zhengchun unhurriedly took out a secret document from his sleeve. When he saw the secret document, he didn't have time to read it, so he hurried into the palace to face the saint.

Zhu Houzhao took the secret document from Cao Zhengchun, opened it, and saw that it read: "The Kingdom of Malacca, the southern vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, was captured by the Franji team. The Frangji sent thirteen warships to occupy an island. Repeatedly spying on the coastal defense of Ming Dynasty, in May of the first year of Zhengde."

When Zhu Houzhao saw the date of the secret document, his face did not feel gloomy.

This sealed letter was issued last month, and it fell into his hands in more than half a month.

"This secret letter, you just received it?"

"Return to Your Majesty, I just received it!"

How low is this efficiency in more than half a month?For half a month, this is simply too much.
"Your Majesty, the journey from the South China Sea to the capital is a long one, and there are many bandits on the HNA, so it takes half a month to reach the capital, which is already very fast." Cao Zhengchun explained.

Zhu Houzhao frowned tightly, with a murderous look on his face.

In the event of a war with other countries, Zhu Houzhao will not take pictures. Even if they do not come, I, Ming Dynasty, will not send troops easily.

But Zhu Houzhao felt that the Franji people were shameless. According to the date of this confidential letter, it shows that they started spying on Daming's military situation a month ago.

Fortunately, it was not the time when he first came to the throne. If there were riots in Northwest Tatar, Northeast Jianzhou Jurchen, and Southwest Coast at the same time, then he, the emperor, would have offended God.

According to this time calculation, it is very likely that the Francoids have already launched an attack on the border of Ming Dynasty.

At this moment, Zhu Houzhao's chest was filled with anger.

"My Great Ming, how can you barbarians touch it? How can you barbarians touch the majesty of Daming? My subordinate country will always belong to me, and it's not something that you Franji people just want to do." able to invade."

"Cao Zhengchun!"

"Chen is here!"

"Declaration of my will, to declare war on the Fulang Robots, immediately send someone to notify Qi Jingtong, and send troops to attack the Fulang Robots who have entered the coastline of Daming."

"Pass the edict to all the dependent countries, whoever trades with the Franji people, treat them as allies, and declare war together."

Cao Zhengchun felt the emperor's wrath.

This time the Fulang Robots invaded the coastal defenses of the Ming Dynasty, which made Zhu Houzhao furious. The Fulang Robots' team had a maximum of several thousand people, more than a dozen warships, and even dared to touch the dragon's beard of the Ming Dynasty in such a small area.

At the same time, when more than 120 warships led by Qi Jingtong were patrolling the coastline of Daming, a warship with [-] Flangers was slowly approaching the coastline of Daming.

These Franbots have already inquired about the deployment of the coastline of the Ming Empire. The coastline of the Ming Empire is too long, reaching a terrifying 2 nautical miles. Based on the information they have, the Franbots have obtained a very accurate result.

The Ming Navy couldn't take care of all the coastlines.

So, they now have a chance!

This time, the Franji people came loaded with their famous Franji guns. These warships are invincible. They all think that the warships made by their country are the largest warships in the world. State-of-the-art warships.

Inside the Forbidden City.

Zhu Houzhao was furious when he heard the news that the Fran robot had attacked Daming's coastal defense.

A small Francine country dared to rely on their cannons and more than a dozen broken ships to occupy Daming's affiliates, and even dared to attack Daming's coastal defenses.I just don't know the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth.

Now that the Ming Empire is still in a strong and prosperous period, and there is a young emperor in the palace, presumably the Ming Dynasty will flourish in the future.

Not to mention the invasion of the subordinate country, even if the people of the subordinate country are treated unfairly in trade, they must be taken care of. Otherwise, how do those barbarian countries know that my Ming Dynasty is strong?Where is the majesty of my Ming Dynasty?
