Chapter 652 Anger
Zhu Yi, Chengdu has always praised himself as a famous emperor. In his heart, he was particularly proud to be able to succeed in this era and lead the brand new Ming Dynasty to the present.
It can be said that when China is fully restored, his achievements are no less than Zhu Yuanzhang, and he even has the reputation of recreating China. Moreover, in Zhu Yicheng's own heart, he felt that he could surpass Zhu Yuanzhang and be remembered by future generations because he had greater ideals and gaze than Zhu Yuanzhang. In his hands, the Ming Dynasty now has the initial capitalism, technological progress, trade and trade, and attaches importance to the ocean. Moreover, there is also the territory of the New Ming Dynasty in North America. If it continues to develop in this way, decades later, Zhu Yicheng firmly believes that the Ming Dynasty will become the hegemon of the world, and he will inevitably become the greatest king in Chinese history and even world history, thus creating a new era.
The result of the Central Plains War made Zhu Yicheng more confident in this goal, but the news from Mobei was like a basin of cold water that made him feel cold. Especially the loss of Mobei and the Rakshasa Kingdom occupied Mobei, which made Zhu Yicheng unable to believe his eyes.
Although the Ming Dynasty had not completely recovered China and Mobei did not belong to the current territory of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yicheng always believed that both inside and outside the Great Wall were the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and the territory of the Ming Dynasty was absolutely not allowed to be interfered with by others. This move by the Rakshasa Kingdom has touched Zhu Yicheng's bottom line.
To be honest, Zhu Yicheng is now wishing to scold all the military ministers in front of him, especially Dong Dashan who was kneeling in front of him. Didn’t you Dong Dashan say that everything was under control? By the way, there is Zhang Ran from the Jinyiwei! At this time, Zhu Yicheng realized that he had forgotten to call Zhang Ran, the bastard. These two guys were so lucky that he had reminded them a long time ago, but this happened now.
When Zhu Yicheng heard that Dong Dashan was pleading for guilt, his first reaction was to agree, and threw him to the north to lead the troops, and brought the troops back to Mobei for himself. However, his long-term imperial career made Zhu Yicheng finally resist his anger and think carefully in his heart.
To be honest, the Mobei Incident is ultimately no wonder Dong Dashan. As mentioned earlier, although Zhu Yicheng was alert at the beginning, Mobei was not the territory of the Ming Dynasty. In addition, according to the current information, it was clearly the Qing Dynasty betrayed Mobei in order to deal with the Ming Dynasty, thus obtaining the official dispatch of troops from the Rakshasa Kingdom.
Not to mention Dong Dashan and Zhang Ran, it would be powerless to replace others. Besides, who could have thought that the Qing Dynasty would do this? But if you think about it carefully, it is inevitable that the Qing Dynasty, whether it is inside or outside the Great Wall, it is actually not their ancestral land. The Qing Dynasty took advantage of the chaos in the late Ming Dynasty and stole the world of China by chance. Now, it is possible to use the mere desert north to exchange for the rule of the Central Plains. These are all done with the faces of the Qing nobles.
It’s better to be with a friendly country than with a slave. It’s really a lineage!
Thinking of this, Zhu Yicheng immediately sneered. Dong Dashan furthered his head a little, leaning on the ground and did not dare to look up at all.
"Emperor!" At this time, Wang Dong stood up and said, "Although Dong Shuai was wrong in the Mobei Incident, Mobei was originally in the hands of the Qing Dynasty, and it also involved various northern Mongolian divisions. Dong Shuai was really powerless in this matter, so please ask the Emperor to investigate it clearly!"
"What Wang Shuai said is indeed the case." Shi Yizhi had a straightforward temper and then stood up and said, "This matter is clearly the fault of the Qing Dynasty. Why is Dong Shuai wrong? The emperor has always been wise. Although it is a pity for the loss of Mobei, what is more important for me to pay attention to the Great Wall at the moment. As for the problems on the grassland, it is not too late to solve them afterwards!"
Immediately afterwards, Liao Huanzhi and Wang Fan also spoke for Dong Dashan. Several military ministers said that it would be extremely inappropriate to hold Dong Dashan accountable by this. They also agreed that although the change in the north of Mobei was serious, it would not threaten the current strategy of regaining various places. The court only needed to ask the Ming army in the north to accept important roads, closely monitor the situation, and then resolve the grassland problem after completely quelling the remnants of the Qing Dynasty on all sides.
Everyone's words gradually calmed down Zhu Yicheng's anger. To be honest, it was indeed the case. Although Dong Dashan was at fault, this mistake was not entirely due to his reasons on the one hand. On the other hand, Zhu Yicheng's reaction to the Mobei Incident was a bit too large, which made these ministers puzzled.
This is the difference between Zhu Yicheng and these ministers' thinking. Compared with the concept of Greater China in later generations, the Chinese who finally stood up valued these things more. Among the people of this era, their vision could not be seen hundreds of years later, nor could they feel sad for Mobei, which did not belong to the territory of the Ming Dynasty at all.
Regarding the change in the north of the desert, everyone's reaction was that the Qing Dynasty's strength would increase after this incident. Coupled with the intervention of the Rakshasa Kingdom and the alliance of other Mongolian tribes, the Ming army may encounter some trouble in the future attack on the northwest or northeast.
But this is just a problem. Now that the three places in the northwest, southwest and northeast have not yet been settled, the Ming Dynasty can do it step by step. With the rising national strength of the Ming Dynasty, it will take several years to pacify the four directions. As for the Rakshasa Kingdom, what can these people who have transformed themselves into? So what if they occupy the northern part of the Mo?
The Ming Dynasty's firearms can now be said to be the most advanced. With the tactics of the Ming New Army, can the Rakshasa people stop the Ming Dynasty? If there are too many people, the Central Plains never worry about the source of troops. What can tens of thousands of Rakshasa people be considered in the eyes of the powerful Daming? As the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, it is really strange that Zhu Yicheng makes such a fuss.
"Get up." Zhu Yicheng finally said, "Although you are wrong in this matter, after all, Mobei is far away and you are beyond your reach. However, what kind of Rakshasa people are? I think you have been to the north before and learned about it. Now the Rakshasa people have joined forces with the Qing Dynasty and Mongolia to divide Mobei. Next, according to my judgment, we will take action south."
After a pause, Zhu Yicheng continued: "Fortunately, the Central Plains War has ended, and our Ming army can free up our hands. If the incident in Mobei was one or two months earlier, it would be difficult. Now I plan to mobilize troops to strengthen the defense in the north. What do you think?"
Dong Dashan bowed his head and thanked him, and then stood up. Then he did not sit back, but stood quietly and thought: "Return to the emperor, I think we can first transfer Lin Jianzhang's main force back to Beijing to ensure the safety of the northern front line. As for the subsequent, the troops from Jiangbei can also be mobilized northward to prevent the enemy from invading from the northeast. However, Yang Xu is still the commander of the southern front line. If necessary, Ma Gongcheng's troops can be transferred to the northwest."
"What about your opinions?" Zhu Yicheng looked at the other people without any objection.
"I have no objection yet. The Central Plains War has ended now. The main force in the Central Plains is already going to be transferred, and the local area only needs to retain some of its troops to station."
