I am the king of the dead

"In July of the fourth year of Yongle, Emperor Wen appointed Zhu Neng, the Duke of Cheng, as the general who conquered Yi, Zhang Fu, the Duke of England, and Mu Sheng, the Duke of Qian, as the left and right deputy generals, leading 15 troops to conquer Annan."

"In November of the fourth year of Yongle, the army arrived in Pingxiang, Guangxi. Duke Cheng passed away and was replaced by Duke Zhang Fu of England."

"In the first month of the fifth year of Yongle, Marquis Liu Sheng of Anyuan captured Li Jishou and his son, and presented them to Lubu as a victor."

Yu Qian briefly introduced the background of the first Ming conquest against Annan.

Li Jishou and his son succeeded in usurping the throne. Chen Tianping of the Annan Chen Dynasty filed a complaint, and the Ming Dynasty sent troops to escort him, but was attacked by Li Jisak.

It can be said that it is invincible.

Why is Ming Dynasty invincible?

Because during the Yongle period, Daming was truly invincible.

Zhu Qiyu looked around and said: "This time, it is different from the first time to conquer Annan. This time, I have planned for a long time."

"The first expedition to Annan, when Emperor Wen had just calmed down, the wind was very strong in the middle of the court, and the northern captives knocked on the side frequently. Li Jishou attacked Daming and escorted Chen Tianping's army. He insulted Daming and aroused Emperor Wen's furious crusade."

"But this time, I have been preparing for ten years."

Li Jishou first said to invite Chen Tianping to return to the country, and then attacked the Ming army. What is this not a joke?

It's not good for Li Jishou to provoke anyone, but Zhu Di must be provoked.

And Zhu Di's conquest of Annan and counties and counties in Annan was also a preparation for the opening of the Ming Dynasty.

In the first year of Yongle, Zhu Di sent many envoys to North Korea, Annan, Champa, Siam, Ryukyu, Chenla, Java, and Sumatra with the imperial edict "All nations in the distance should submit" .

But Zhu Di's reward did not receive any response, and even the envoy to Java disappeared.

Li Jishou attacked Daming's army in a sneak attack and insulted Daming, which completely ignited Zhu Di's anger.

And Zhu Qiyu has a strong obsession with reviving Annan. There is a huge Kanyu map in the Daming Lecture Hall. When the Kanyu map appeared for the first time, there were Jiaozhi Cheng Announcing the Political Envoy and Jiugang Announcing Consolation manage.

Everyone knows the heart of the Ming Emperor.

How to crusade against Annan, and then set up Jiaozhi Cheng to announce the political commissioner, is also a popular topic in the Jiangwu Hall.

Zhang Mao's invitation to fight is not aimless, but has been preparing since entering the lecture hall.

Zhu Qiyu continued: "There are some things. If you see Zhenzhang under your hands, Jiaozhi will be pacified in March, and the Nanyang countries that originally harbored evil intentions will be stable."

"The teacher who inquired about crimes, Annan's lesson, was so powerful that the sea trade was unimpeded."

The words of Zhu Qiyu and Yu Qian affirmed the protection of the interests of the Ming Dynasty in the conquest of Annan by the Ming Dynasty and the protection of Annan by the prefectures and counties, and played a vital role in the stability of the entire Luchuan and Wanli Haitang.

After this battle, Daming became the maintainer and arbiter of order in Wanli Haitang.

For example, in September of the fifth year of Yongle, the Ming Dynasty decreed to mediate the internal strife between the eastern and western kings of Java. The western king was shocked by the destruction of the Annan Kingdom, so he released the eastern king.

In the ninth year of Yongle, Siam bullied the weak and bullied the country, captured the tribute envoys in Champa, and seized Sumatra to add the imperial seal. Zhu Di made a decree and mediated the matter.

In the ninth year of Yongle, the tributary states of the Ming Dynasty increased from the initial four states of Banggala, Java East, Chenla, and Boni to 31 countries.

Only then did Yu Qian continue to say: "In the sixth year of Yongle, the British Duke Zhang Fu's class returned to the court. In Jiaozhi, Jian Ding, Deng Xi, Ruan Shuai and others surrounded the so-called descendants of the Chen family, Chen Ji Kuo, who was called the Emperor of Dayue and was named Chong Guang. , Jane decides to call himself King Rinan."

"Governor Mu Sheng of Qian State led the seal of the general who conquered Yi, and then conquered Annan, and the Battle of Juejiang took place. Duke Mu Sheng of Qian State underestimated the enemy and rushed forward, resulting in a major defeat. Du Si Lu Yi, Liu Xian who participated in politics and others all died in battle."

Jian Ding used Annan and the Chen Dynasty to rebel this time, and became famous because Mu Sheng, the Duke of Qian State, underestimated the enemy. For a while, Ming's rule over Jiaozhi became precarious, and Jiaozhi was in chaos.

"On the first day of February in the seventh year of Yongle, the British Duke was engraved with the seal of the general who conquered Yi and conquered Annan. In March, the King of Rinan Jianding was captured alive and sent to the capital as a prisoner. The British Duke Zhang Fu returned to the court again because of the tension in the war with the northern captives."

"In the ninth year of Yongle, Chen Jikuo was dissatisfied with Daming's refusal to make him king of Annan, and the sentence was re-sentenced. The British Duke Zhang Fu once again put up a seal to punish him. In March, Chen Jikuo fled to Nghe An Prefecture."

"This time, because the war in the north was stable, the British Duke Zhang Fu sorted out the internal affairs and military affairs of Jiaozhi. In the 11th year of Yongle, he captured Chen Jikuo alive in Nanmo, Mengji, and sent him to the capital together with his wife."

"British Duke Zhang Fu went up to play, Annan Jing'an, stayed with the army to guard, returned to Nanjing by himself, and followed Emperor Wen to conquer Mobei for the second time."

After Zhang Fu went in and out of Jiaozhi and changed Jiaozhi into the shape of Ming Dynasty, he said that Jiaozhi was Jing'an and went back to the dynasty.

The fact is also the same, Jiaozhi has been stable from the ninth year of Yongle until the day when Zhu Dilong was the guest of honor in the 22nd year of Yongle.

Yu Qian thought for a while and said very simply: "In the first year of Xuande, Li Lili was powerful, and Zhengshuo of the Ming Dynasty could not go to Annan County, and Annan was restored."

"Annan, the county, is interested in molesting the people and punishing crimes. There is a way to punish those who have no way. This is the law of heaven."

"Annan, the county, died of tyranny and tyranny, and Yousi was brutal and inhuman."

How to manage Cochin is a question that will be discussed after Cochin is defeated, so Yu Qian did not explain in detail how Daming lost Cochin step by step.

Chen Mao bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, the Minister of Rites Hu Wei said that in the third year of Xuande, Li Li usurped and proclaimed himself emperor. The former emperor once said: In three or two years, I will do it."

"In the fifth year of Xuande, the first emperor did not canonize Li Li as the king of Annan, but only authorized him to manage the affairs of Annan."

"In May of the sixth year of Xuande, the first emperor issued an edict to search for the descendants of the Chen Dynasty in Annan to no avail. He said to the left and right: Is it God's will? Suppress people's schemes."

"It wasn't until the first year of Zhengtong, when Li Li died and Li Yuanlong succeeded to the throne, that Li Yuanlong was canonized as King Annan."

Although Hu Wei is not in Nanya, it doesn't mean that he can't wash the land for His Majesty.

According to the narrative style of the Jingtai period, in the environment of great speculation after the Tumubao sky change, in the orthodox 14th year, certain decisions of the unfilial, unkind, and unrighteous King Jili endangered the foundation of Ming Dynasty and should be dismissed. corrected.

Obviously, canonizing Li Yuanlong as the King of Annan is against the decision of his ancestors.

This is Hu Yu. Even if there is no opposition from civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty, Hu Yu will still seek compensation for His Majesty, so that His Majesty's wisdom will not be damaged, and his achievements will not be stained.

If the Ministry of Rites does not wash the floor, is that still the Ministry of Rites?

Is etiquette an inconvenience?

Chen Mao hesitated for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, I think that the army should be launched in July next year and officially enter Jiaozhi in November. There are three reasons for this."

"One is to prepare for the battle. This battle involves a lot of things. The Beijing Army cooperates with the Guangdong-Guangzhou Guard Army and the Yunnan-Guizhou Guard Army. The three parties may be hindered. I think that we should go to the back of the Guangzhou Mansion and exchange information."

"The second is the time of day, when troops are dispatched, until Jiaozhi is in April of the ninth year of Jingtai, when the weather in Jiaozhi becomes warmer. By that time, Jiaozhi has heavy water vapor and frequent dysentery, which is not conducive to fighting."

"Three is the harmony of people. At this time, the people of Jiaozhi still have illusions about the Liyue Dynasty. If the Ming Dynasty marches at this time, the people of Jiaozhi will not see the face of the Liyue Dynasty. If they gather together to fight against the heavenly soldiers, they may have future troubles, which is not conducive to long-term peace and stability."

The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty had been waiting for ten years, and at the first meeting with the Yue court, Chen Mao openly told the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty that His Majesty would wait.

Yu Qian's originally indifferent expression was somewhat dignified, and he clenched his relaxed hands lightly. He looked at Zhu Qiyu with a worried expression.

This scene is quite familiar to Qian.

In July of the 14th year of Zhengtong, King Jili issued an edict to personally conquer. At the time of the court meeting, the already aging British Duke Zhang Fu, at the court meeting, advised King Jili to be cautious and not to take it lightly. Personal enlistment.

As a result, it aroused the jealousy of King Jili. The knot in King Jili's heart became bigger and bigger, but the more he persuaded, the more depressed he became. In the end, despite dissuasion, King Jili insisted on conquering himself.

Zhu Qiyu's face was as usual, but he smiled and looked at the British Duke Zhang Mao at this time and asked, "Zhang Mao, what do you think?"

Zhang Mao hesitated for a moment, bowed his head and said, "I also think that it is more appropriate to go out in July and enter Jiaozhi in November."

Zhang Mao's father, Zhang Fu, was the lingering shadow of Jiaozhi. No matter what kind of rebellion, in Zhang Fu's hands, it would take three months to put it down.

And Zhang Mao himself is very interested in Cochin, and often writes inscriptions to discuss the situation of Cochin.

In Zhang Mao's view, what Chen Mao said made sense.

Zhu Qiyu nodded lightly and said, "What does Yu Shaobao think?"

Yu Qian said rather flatly: "I think it's fine to wait seven months or not. It depends on your Majesty's decision."

"Wait, it's just waiting for seven months, don't wait, my soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are waiting for death, Li Chao is invincible."

"It's all right."

What Yu Qian said was as if he hadn't said it.

This is the role of Yu Qian sitting in this position.

If he also said that His Majesty would wait, His Majesty would inevitably murmur in his heart: These generals are working together, what are they going to do?

From Yu Qian's point of view, the pimple in His Majesty's heart has a greater impact than not being able to beat the toes!

Yu Qian's meaning is very clear, when His Majesty wants to fight, he can fight whenever he wants, and he can fight however he wants.

After the fight is over, it is just the difficulty of dealing with the aftermath.

For Yu Qian, this is nothing.

After Yu Qian finished speaking, he shook his head, took a sip of tea, and smiled self-deprecatingly.

During the Zhengtong period, Yu Tingyi, who was known for his toughness and daring to speak and act, was known both at home and abroad. In the Jingtai period, he became such a foolish master.

Zhu Qiyu thought for a while and said, "What does Wei Guogong think?"

Xu Chengzong blinked his eyes and thought for a moment and asked, "I think what Yu Shaobao said is reasonable."

Xu Chengzong did his military exploits, he didn't intend to express his opinion, he didn't talk about things he didn't understand, he watched more, listened more and learned more, if he knew how to march and deploy troops, why would he wait for Chen Mao to come?He got on it himself.

Zhu Qiyu took a deep breath.

Chapter 728 Consistent Style, Dare to Fight and Dare to Win

Zhu Qiyu said: "Ningyanghou is the general who conquers Yi. Since he has been appointed, he will take the general's words as good."

The core decision-makers of Ming Dynasty, Ningyang Hou Chen Mao and British Duke Zhang Mao, both felt that it would be appropriate to fight again in July, while Yu Qian and Xu Chengzong were ambiguous.

Zhu Qiyu finally decided to follow Chen Mao's idea.

And the reason is, direct command without interfering.

Now that Chen Mao has been appointed as General Zhengyi, Zhu Qiyu will not easily interfere with Chen Mao's command in terms of military affairs.

The battle against Annan was under the full command of Chen Mao.

Zhu Qiyu knew a lot about his military talent, if it weren't for the natural disaster Xing'an, it would be very difficult for him to win on the chessboard.

Since he has no military talent, Zhu Qiyu would not do such a thing as commanding a machine gun to move ten meters.

"Your Majesty, there are still nearly eight months left. When Your Majesty returns to Beijing, or..." Chen Mao asked another crucial question again.

The whereabouts of the emperor.

After the battle plan has changed, whether His Majesty will still stay in Nanya, or even go south, is a rather troublesome question.

"I transferred from Fujian to Guangzhou and continued to go south." Zhu Qiyu did not hesitate, and explained: "Throughout the war between the Song and Song Dynasties, I was defeated by the generals. I went to Guangzhou to parade and stabilize the morale of the army."

"I can only work harder, Uncle Huang."

Song Shenzong supported Wang Anshi's reform and Xining's reform, and the national power increased rapidly. At the chaotic moment of power alternation in Xixia, Song Shenzong ordered to attack Xia.

In this battle, the right time, place and people were all in place, and 35 troops marched towards Xixia. Soon, the five armies began to restrain each other, and finally failed.

In the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, Wanyan Zongbi went south with heavy troops, Song Gaozong Zhao Gou invited Yue Fei out from Lushan Mountain, led the army of Shenwu to fight against the enemy, and smashed the Golden Army Iron Buddha Tu in Yancheng.

Unwilling to fail, Wanyan Zongbi gathered an army of 12 in Yingchang. In this battle, Yue Fei's son Yue Yun led [-] cavalry and charged until the people were blood men and horses were blood horses. No one would look back. Killing [-] enemies was a great victory in the Southern Song Dynasty!

After the great victories in Yancheng and Yingchang, Yue Fei began to prepare to go north, calling out the call sign to overcome the two capitals and go straight to Huanglong. This was Yue Fei's long-cherished wish, and it was also Zhao Gou's order.

Zhao Gou promised back then that after Yue Fei broke through the Huanglong Mansion, he would drink with Ru and other soldiers.

Wanyan Zongbi was scared out of his wits and fled to the north bank of the Yellow River, preparing to return north.

However, Yue Fei's pace of going north was not only blocked by the imperial decree of the thirteen gold medals, but also constrained by the troops on the left and right wings, and his movements were slow.

When the Song Dynasty fought wars, it just liked to play multiple ways and make more orders.

In this attack on Annan, Chen Maode was highly respected, his martial virtues were abundant, and his martial arts were brilliant, but he was only a Marquis of Ningyang after all, and this time there were Duke Ying, Duke Wei, Duke Qian and Duke Cheng who fought this time.

Of the five Dukes of the Ming Dynasty, the only one who did not participate in the war was Dingguo Duke Xu Yongning.

Dingguogong and Weiguogong are two dukes of the old Xu family. Zhu Qiyu took Weiguogong Xu Chengzong to Guangzhou Mansion, so there is no need to take Dingguogong Xu Yongning with him.

Cheng Guogong Zhu Yong died in Tumubao. Zhu Yi was the eldest son of Zhu Yong, but according to the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty, he lost his teacher and humiliated the country, so that he was mistakenly trapped and defeated in the battle. However, Zhu Qiyu still let Zhu Yi enter the martial arts hall.

This gave Zhu Yi a chance to make great achievements and get back the title. Zhu Yi lived up to Zhu Qiyu's expectations and graduated with a top class in the first lecture hall. There were only 17 people in the top class that year.

Afterwards, Zhu Yi followed His Majesty to conquer Nanya to quell the rebellion, and in the grand parade when the class teacher returned to the court, he won the championship flag again.

To this day, Zhu Yi has not yet returned to the title.

And this battle against Annan is the best chance for Zhu Yi to regain his title.

Whether the new generation of British Dukes Zhang Mao, Qian Guogong Mu Lin, and Cheng Guogong Zhu Yi are idiots, we have to see the truth on the battlefield, but there is one thing that Zhu Qiyu is very sure of, that is, the four countries that conquered Annan this time The public is all in the yamen.

And Chen Mao is only the Marquis of Ningyang.

Therefore, Zhu Qiyu must go to Guangzhou Mansion to sit in the town in person. Chen Mao can't deal with whoever loses the chain, but Zhu Qiyu can.

"Your Majesty is wise." Yu Qian first expressed his support and approval for His Majesty's decision.

As for His Majesty's absence from the capital for a long time, the extremely loyal Shuntian Mansion is no longer so loyal. His Royal Highness King Xiang has some strange thoughts in his heart, whether the yellow robe will happen, Yu Qian is not worried, the capital can't make any big troubles .

It has been nine years since His Majesty ascended the throne, and it was not the time to be eager to fight against the rebellion.
