Sun Chengzong, Sun Chuanting, Qin Liangyu, Shen Yongmao, even Zhang Zhiji, Jin Guoqi, Zhao Shujiao, Man Gui and other people involved in the defense of the capital were all summoned into the palace.

In the General Staff, in front of the huge sand table, a group of people were surrounded by them, with a stern expression.

Liaodong is out of control and the biggest threat is that they are in the Ming Dynasty.

Sun Chengzong stared at the sand table, looked at it seriously, and explained to people including Zhu Xu.

He said, "Your Majesty, Jiannu's troops were more than 100,000 when he was Nurhaci. After the last battle, there are still 60,000 to 70,000 now. Jinzhou, Ningyuan, Ningyuan is as solid as a golden soup, and Jiannu is unlikely to continue attacking. It is possible to detour Liaodong and reach the Great Wall. However, according to my estimate, if Amin wants to establish his authority, the best goal is Dongjiang/zhen."

Zhu Xu also looked at the sand table, from Ya Lu/River to west, from the huge Liaodong Dusi Peninsula, then from Daling/Hebei/Guan to Shan/Hai/Guan, and then a series of defensive centers along the Great Wall. Due to the previous agreement, the territory of the Later Jin was shrunk within the Tai/Zihe River and Liao/He River, but this was a very unreliable agreement. Liaodong was vast and sparsely populated, and Jiannu's cavalry came and went like the wind, so the Ming Dynasty had no way to defend.

Therefore, the most fragile one is the huge duck/green/since the west of the river, the Dusi Peninsula in Liaodong.

Everyone stared at the sand table with an unstable expression. The territory of the Ming Dynasty was too wide, and there were also large areas to defend. The cavalry of the Later Jin Dynasty came and went quickly, and it was impossible to fight head-on. The Ming Dynasty is still the key to defense.

Sun Chuanting looked for a while and said to Zhu Xu: "Emperor, then let Dong/Jiang/Zhen lose its meaning. You can order General Mao to retreat to North Korea/Xian to defend. As long as Jiannu is in vain, then going around to the Great Wall is the only choice!"

Zhu Xu's eyes lit up. This was indeed a solution, but he did not speak immediately. There were still many talents in the Later Jin Dynasty, not to mention Jiergalang, Dege, and Dorgon. What's more, Amin has experienced a long battle formation, not to mention that he is not foolish, and it is not so easy to be fooled.

Qin Liangyu is now commanding several northern towns. She stared at the sand table for a while and said, "It is better to stimulate Jiannu and force Jiannu to do it."

Zhu Xu's expression moved and said, "How can I force myself?"

Qin Liangyu turned around and looked at Zhu Xu and said, "Emperor, the Mongolian and ancient tribes are now scattered. It is better to pick a few and send cavalry to conquer them."

As soon as Qin Liangyu's words came out, everyone showed contemplation and expression of intention.

Since Yongle, the Ming Dynasty has almost never entered the grasslands and has always been defensive. In recent years, Mongolia and Gu were basically broken. Not to mention mutual conquests, there were also the continuous reversals of Jiannu, especially Huang Taiji defeated Lin Danhan, and Mongolia and Guyu were extremely weak.

If you choose a few weak people and unexpectedly attack, it will not only stimulate Jiannu who treats Mongolian and ancient times as the back garden, but also establish a good power!

Zhu Xu also thought for a while, looked at Man Gui, Zhao Rujiao, and said, "What do you think?"

These two men now command 15,000 cavalry, and are the most elite cavalry in the Ming Dynasty, or even the only ones.

Man Gui glanced at Zhao Rujiao, raised his hand and said loudly: "Go back to the emperor, the Han Dynasty was defeated not long ago and was defeated by the Han Dynasty. It happened to be a name for conquering the battle."

Zhao Rujiao lowered his head and thought, and raised his hand and said, "The coalition forces of the various units of the Han Dynasty have dispersed. Thirty thousand cavalrymen were surprised. In addition, with a large basket and the assistance of the Sky Eye, they will definitely be caught off guard!"

Zhu Xu listened to the two of them and turned to Sun Chengzong, Sun Chuanting and others, and said, "What do you think about the General Staff?"

Sun Chengzong and others looked at each other and said, "It's not impossible to go back to the emperor, but my Ming cavalry is hard-won and needs to plan a complete plan."

Zhu Xu nodded and said, "You must be quick, and you must never let Jiannu take action first!"

The cavalry of the Later Jin Dynasty was too fast. Once they started moving, the news would be heard and the troops were all at the capital. There was no extra time to react, so they needed to take action first.

"Abide by the order!" a group of people responded.

Zhu Xu was quite at ease with this group of people. With them in there, he could also rest assured about Liaodong affairs, and he still had to focus on rectifying government affairs.

Zhejiang, Hangzhou/zhou Prefecture.

There are a large luxury restaurant by the river, filled with people.

Everyone was dressed exquisitely and luxuriously, with the best fragrance and the best wine and dishes on it. A group of people gathered together, laughing like a tide, and drinking happily.

All the famous people here are even at high positions.

There were Li Zhizao, the former Shaoqing of Taipu Temple, Jiang Yihong, the current right governor of Guang/East East, Chen Yingyuan, the right governor of Zhejiang/Jiangjiang, Wang Xiangjin, the right governor of inspector of Guang/East West, Zheng Maohua, the right governor of Fu/Jian, Huguang, etc., the governor of participating in politics, the supervisor... In addition to some opposition officials, there were more than 20 people.

After halfway through the wine, everyone stopped the wine glass tacitly.

Wang Xiangjin looked at Li Zhizao who was sitting not far away and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, you came back from the capital. The capital is bustling and we can't see clearly. I hope you can give me some advice."

Li Zhizao was originally the Minister of the Ministry of Works and served as the Shaoqing of the Taipu Temple. Later, he disobeyed Wei Zhongxian and was sent to Nanjing. When the Nanzhili was reorganized, he was "laid off" and returned to his hometown in Hangzhou.

He has already entered the Baptism and Catholic Church, and is devoted to compiling various books on literature, calendars, firearms and other books from the West.

He is almost sixty years old this year and is very thin. Perhaps he has joined the Catholic Church and has the compassionate and humble attitude that is rare in the Ming Dynasty officials. Listening to Wang Xiangjin's words, he smiled and said, "Li left Beijing in the fourth year of Tianqi. He doesn't understand the current dynasty. You are looking for the wrong person."

Jiang Yihong looked at Li Zhizao's smiling expression and leaned closer and said, "Mr. Li, I heard that you have a close relationship with Xu Guangqi and Xu. We have heard that he is going to be the Minister of Works. Now no one knows that those who can join the Six Divisions are all the confidants of the current emperor..."

Li Zhizao glanced at Jiang Yihong and shook his head and said, "Mr. Jiang, don't make things difficult for me. Li really doesn't understand the court in the capital."

It’s not just Li Zhizao who doesn’t understand, but everyone here doesn’t understand.

The past dynasty was very clear, and the gangs of various factions could tell the difference, and they knew exactly what path to take.

But for the current dynasty officials, the current dynasty is really a sight to see the flowers in the fog, and no one knows what the court is going to do now.

Zheng Maohua, the right governor of Guang/Xi, is a somewhat short and thirsty middle-aged man with big eyes and very conspicuous on his round and chubby face. He glanced at the person present and said to Li Zhizao: "No matter what, I hope to give some advice. Now, the governors of Shandong, Jiang/Xi, He/Nan and other governors, and the inspectors have all been transferred to Beijing and arranged to the governor's office. They have no rank yet. I heard that Zhejiang/Jiang will soon be a new governor."

"Yes, now there is only the Governor's Office, and there is no Governor's Office, the Censor's Office, and the Command Department have also been replaced by the Governor's Office..."

"Also, the taxation has also changed. Some three officials, prefects, and county governments have no power to examine cases..."

Li Zhizao sighed silently as he listened to the words of the few people. He was a rare smart person. Although he couldn't tell the court clearly, he knew that the fierce and terrifying party struggles a year ago were gone.

He was also awake. These people came to his relationship with Xu Guangqi. He smiled kindly and said, "My lords, Li really doesn't know the inside story. The emperor is kind now. He will not have the intention to kill unless he has a serious crime. There is no need to worry."

Everyone's expressions remained unchanged and they were all whispering in their hearts. Are we afraid of death?

We are afraid of losing our official position, fear of losing our power, and fear of losing our power!

Li Zhizao was so stern that he couldn't find anything, so they had to find another way.

A few days later, as soon as Zhu Xu came out of Cining Palace, Cao Huachun rushed over and said, "Your Majesty, something happened."

Zhu Xu smiled and asked while walking indifferently: "What happened? It made you so panic?"

Cao Huachun followed Zhu Xu and said anxiously: "Emperor, Guangdong, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Guangxi, Guangxi, and the memorial book has arrived at the imperial study."

Zhu Xu turned his head and looked at Cao Huachun. Seeing that his expression was really a little flustered, he rushed back to the imperial study room quickly.

On his imperial table, more than ten memorials were neatly placed. Zhu Xu sat down, looked at Cao Huachun, and flipped it out casually.

The first statement was that Jiang Yihong, the right governor of Guangdong/Dong, reported that the disaster in Guangdong/Dong this year was serious and the expected summer grain harvest would be poor. At the same time, he impeached the left senator Tang Li, accusing them of acting wildly and violating the law and asking the court to punish them severely.

Zhu Xu browed, Tang Li was selected by the Ministry of Personnel and placed in Guangdong, to investigate the situation in advance and cooperate with political reform.

To be precise, it was Zhu Xu's man!

"Is it really Tang Li illegal?" Zhu Xu frowned, and his instinctive premonition was about to happen.

Immediately afterwards was the Guangdong Censor Chen Yingyuan, impeached the Sansi who had just entered Guangdong, violated the ancestral system and interfered with their government affairs, and requested that the Sansi be recalled.

Zhu Xu's expression was slightly deeper and he picked up the one below.

This was submitted by Wang Xiangjin, the governor of Zhejiang/Jiangyou. He impeached the governor and accused him of interfering in local political affairs, causing the people to live in poverty and requesting dismissal.

Next was the Guang/Xi Right Administrator Zheng Maohua, impeached Guang/Xi Governor to rob power and make ill-intentioned plans, and asked the court to investigate thoroughly.

Then there are memorials from all over Jiang/Xi, Hu/Guangzhou, which complain and then impeach local officials. Most of these officials were sent out from the capital, and more than half were placed by Zhu Xu in various places to prepare for the early stage of political reform.

Zhu Xu finally read all these memoirs and understood it. He changed from Southern Zhili to Jiangsu, and then to Shandong, He/south, Shan/south, Shan/west. Other provinces finally realized it and began to plan to resist him.

"It's still here after all." Zhu Xu said to himself, and then he sneered. He had swept the Donglin Party into the Governor's Office. There was no force in the capital to restrain him. Can the outside of the capital stop him?

Zhu Xu knocked on the table with a cold look, looked outside the door, pondered for a while, and said: "Issued an order, Zhou Weijing was transferred to the governor of Zhejiang/Jiangjiang, Fu Zonglong was the governor of Jiangsu/Zhejiang provinces, Huang Chengyuan was the governor of Guang/Dong, and Wang Yongguang was the governor of Guang/Dong..."

After a series of orders were issued, Cao Huachun was frightened.

Except for the several provinces that have been rectified, all the other provinces have to go hand in hand and reorganize together!

If such a large scale causes local resistance, the consequences will be extremely terrible. It will not only affect summer grain, but also cause local chaos!

Cao Huachun responded to the order and said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, do you want to discuss this matter with you?"

Zhu Xu glanced at him and paused, "Okay, I'll send an order to the Six Ministers, King Jing, and King Xin to see me."

Work overtime today, I'm late to come back. I'll make up for it this week
