Reborn as a tyrant in the Ming Dynasty

Stealing half a day's leisure is very luxurious for Zhu Youxiao. He also wants to stay in Wenwen Township and not think about anything, but the cruel reality prevents Zhu Youxiao from doing this!

The situation is so chaotic.

The border troubles are so chaotic.

The rebellion was so chaotic.

The place is so chaotic.

If he, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, shows no concern for the country, how can he make a group of ministers care about it?

After all, this country belongs to his Zhu family!

If one day the Ming Dynasty comes to overthrow, the worst possible outcome is that he will change his family, but he, the Ming Emperor, will not end well.

The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit!

Compared with the recent turmoil between the DPRK and the capital, Zhu Youxiao is more concerned about the garrison in the pass. After all, what happened in the former, even if there is any trouble, it will not threaten the country of Ming Dynasty, but if something goes wrong in the latter , even if it is just a little bit, the threat will be great.

Qianqing Palace.

Dong Nuan Pavilion.

A hanging map was placed in the hall. Zhu Youxiao stood with his hands behind his back, staring at the map in front of him, while Yuan Keli, the Minister of War, had a serious expression, but there was a bit of weariness between his brows. It was obvious that Yuan Keli was preparing for today's memorial. It took a long time to prepare.

"let's start."

Zhu Youxiao said in a calm tone that it was very important for Zhu Youxiao to understand the garrison situation in the pass. If he wanted to launch a strategy against Liao, he must ensure the stability of the hinterland in the pass.

Once the offensive is launched against the Jianlu who are ravaging Liaodong, if there are any problems within the pass during this period, Zhu Youxiao will definitely defeat Liaodong, and may even be called the new emperor.

This is something Zhu Youxiao will never allow!

"Your Majesty, based on the current situation at hand, and affected by the situation in Liaodong, our DPRK's garrison around Liaodong and other places within the Pass has shown a situation of being tight on the outside and loose on the inside."

Yuan Keli organized his speech and then explained the situation he had sorted out to the emperor, "In order to ensure the stability of Liaodong and the pass and avoid being affected by unexpected war situations, the imperial court successively appointed governors of Jiliao, Liaodong managers, and governors of Liaodong to ensure that Overall stability.”

Zhu Youxiao nodded.

Regarding these, Zhu Youxiao is still clear. The current governor of Jiliao is Wu Yongxian. This person was a Jinshi in the 20th year of Wanli and was from Tongcheng, Anhui. Although there are few records in historical materials, this person has great talents, unlike others. The civil servants blindly commanded and interfered with each other. When the Liao Bureau was at its most critical, he took office and inspected everywhere without fear of danger. He even proposed building walls and platforms as an urgent task; making decisions based on mutual needs for pacification and suppression, and mutual use of war and defense; advocating simplicity and keeping The officials of Yue, Cherishing the Army and Loving the People played an extremely positive role in stabilizing the rear area in western Liaoning and stabilizing the hinterland in the Pass.

As for Sun Chengzong, who was in charge of Liaodong, not to mention, perhaps the strategy he pursued against the captives was indeed highly controversial, but it is undeniable that under the panic of the people, the trend of talking about slaves was prevalent, and Sun Chengzong came out of town. Liaodong did indeed protect the Liaoxi Corridor for the Ming Dynasty, and would not expose Shanhaiguan to the front of the Jianlu soldiers.

"Currently regarding the various arrangements in the Liao Dynasty, I think Sun Chengzong has done a good job. There may be some problems in it, but he has maintained the stability of the Liao Dynasty."

Yuan Keli continued: "Especially the arrangements on Juehua Island. Jin Guan led his troops to station in Juehua Island, prepared to build a naval force on Juehua Island, and operated Juehua Island as a maritime transit hub, storing a large amount of military supplies, Ordnance, etc., so that even if there is any movement on the front line in western Liaoning or in the areas within the pass, it will not cause the armies of the former Liao tribes to fall into chaos."

"In addition, in the areas before Liao, there are still commander-in-chief Mangui, Zhao Lijiao, deputy commander-in-chief Zuo Fu and other generals and their troops to guard the area. In addition, the Ning cavalry can be used as a maneuver, which makes the Jianlu even want to invade the western Liaoning front line. , then we must also consider these elites stationed in Liaoqian."

"I remember that there was a brave general named Huang Long under Jin Guan who guarded Juehua Island, right?"

After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao looked at Yuan Keli and asked.

"Have!"

Without thinking, Yuan Keli lowered his head slightly and said: "This man is extremely brave in fighting, and he is commanding a navy. When the Liaozuo front line was frequently attacked by Jianqi, many of the navy stationed on Juehua Island took boats to cross the sea. Launch an offensive against the hinterland of western Liaoning and even the coastal areas of southern Liaoning where the rebels have seized control."

Despite what he said, doubts arose in Yuan Keli's heart.

Why does the emperor pay so much attention to this Huanglong?

This person's military position on Juehua Island was not high.

It’s just that Yuan Keli didn’t know that Zhu Youxiao lamented that among the generals in Liao, many were brave and good at fighting. There were even some generals who Zhu Youxiao wanted to transfer back to the capital to serve. However, considering the situation in Liaodong, Zhu Youxiao Only then could I resist this thought.

The Ming Dynasty had no shortage of brave and skilled generals. Even around the first year of the Apocalypse, there were a large number of fierce generals, but all of them were tricked to death! !

This kind of thing must never happen again in the future!

Thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao clenched his hanging hands tightly. It is easy to get a thousand armies, but it is hard to find a general. For the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty, a general is dead when he is dead. The most indispensable thing in the Ming Dynasty is a military general, but For Zhu Youxiao, these generals are all treasures, and none of them can be missing! !

Putting down the Jianlu rebellion was just the beginning.

In the future, the Ming Dynasty will conquer Mongolia and sweep away all the surrounding ethnic groups. Zhu Youxiao has great ambitions. He wants to establish a powerful dynasty.

It's just that these ambitions can only be hidden in the bottom of my heart for now, and everything starts with solving the practical problems.

"In my opinion, the garrison in the pass that your Majesty wants to know about should also include the deployment in front of Liao. The two are closely connected." Seeing that the emperor remained silent, Yuan Keli continued.

"Just like Sanxie of Ji Town, it is adjacent to Shanhaiguan Town, and Shanhaiguan Town is the midfielder of Liao Dynasty. If we simply separate the two, it will not be good for the court."

"I know this."

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said: "The Great Wall defense line built on the border of the pass is built on the Yanshan Mountains, and the western foot of the Greater Khingan Mountains also intersects with the Yanshan Mountains. Given the current situation in Liaodong, if the Jianlu wanted to enter the pass, one of them had to pass through the Shanhaiguan Pass. One is through Silamulun!"

"However, Shanhaiguan Town has thick walls and is surrounded by mountains and sea. Even if the Western Liaoning Corridor is completely lost, it may be difficult for the rebels to break through Shanhaiguan. Therefore, another place becomes the key!"

Yuan Keli looked surprised. He didn't expect the emperor to know so much.

"indeed."

Yuan Keli calmed down and stretched out his hand hurriedly: "When Sun Chengzong came out to control Liaodong, he proposed to set up Ji Town Sanxie. The purpose was very pure, that is, to guard Xifengkou, Longjing Pass, Qingshan Pass and other important pass areas, and to communicate with Shanhaiguan Pass." The towns formed a trend of echoing each other from a distance, preventing the rebels from bypassing the front line in western Liaoning, crossing the various Mongolian and Tatar tribes, and approaching the key border areas within the pass with troops."

"Ma Shilong, the commander-in-chief of the left, is stationed in the Third Tun Camp to take charge of the Fourth Route of Zhongxie. His subordinates Wang Shiqin is stationed in Nanhai and You Shilu is stationed in Beishan to support the key points of the Central Association. Sun Zushou, the commander-in-chief of Jizhou, is stationed in Zunhua and is in charge of The 4th West Association Road and the 4th East Association Road are stationed at Jianchang Camp, thus forming a complete defense of Jizhou Three Associations!"

They are another group of generals who are good at fighting.

When Zhu Youxiao heard this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. With such an arrangement and deployment, without touching these generals, but trying to solve practical problems such as civilian constraints, insufficient troops under his command, and lack of military equipment, Zhu Youxiao would not feel that the pass was There is any possibility of failure in defense.

"Since the imperial court has stationed so many generals and elite soldiers in the above-mentioned places, why doesn't it want to go out to the inner and outer borders of the pass and try to get out of the pass to encircle and suppress the captives?"

While Zhu Youxiao was thinking, Zhu Youjian, who had been silent all the time, raised a question at this moment. Although he knew he shouldn't say this, he still couldn't help but want to ask.

When Yuan Keli heard this, the expression on his face changed a little. Anyone who knew some military strategy would not ask such a question, but it happened that these words were raised by King Xin of the Ming Dynasty. As a minister of the Ming Dynasty, he suddenly I really don’t know what to say...
