Chapter four hundred and seventy-one: really going against
At least from Hao Fenglou's channels, the Northern Yuan Dynasty was not a monolithic piece, and now it has been divided into two parts, one Tatar and the other Tissue. In addition, there are many tribes, and the conflict between them is much more severe than that of the Ming Dynasty.
If these tribes and the Ming Dynasty were just a relationship between the poor and the rich, the poor would inevitably want to fight the rich when they were hungry. Although the so-called golden family, the so-called descendants of the royal family, hated the Ming Dynasty to the core, these people had long been undermined. The tribes of various tribes were hesitant to flee into the desert in a hurry and began to resurrect the past life of living by grass. A deep-rooted contradiction began to emerge.
The leaders of these tribes have become accustomed to a pampering life. They need silk, porcelain, and all the luxury goods that meet their lives. There are even some who like poetry, antiques, and famous paintings. These things are within their reach for decades ago, but now they are very different.
The leaders of the tribe have already grown fattened. It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. In this case, it is no longer possible that they will think about every day like their ancestors, just like their ancestors, that is, they are companions with horses and good bows. They love to enjoy and enjoy. In order to satisfy these, they use the simplest method - to squeeze.
The suppression of the lower Tatars and slaves has almost reached a madness. During this grassland famine, many princes and princes still enjoy fine wine and delicacies. They were accompanied by dozens or even hundreds of waiters in silk clothes. They were full of belly and fat. They thought about how to restore their ancestral property every day, but how to take action was simply empty talk for them.
Not only that, conflicts between tribes have also begun to emerge. Since there is no convincing figure in the desert, the royal family of the Northern Yuan Dynasty has long been undermined, and the powerful ministers are in power, and there have been dissatisfaction among the tribes. However, the plump grassland is a real benefit. In order to compete for the grassland, tribes have only eight or nine months to remember, and there have been hundreds of conflicts, including fighting and fierce battles of all sizes.
This time, some Mongolian tribes were willing to come to the peace talks, but it was actually a product of this contradiction. Faced with the crisis of winter, some tribes sharpened their knives and decided to go to the border of the Ming Dynasty to make a vote. If they succeed, they would have a wealth of clothes and food, and they would have endless happiness. If they were defeated, they would have nothing but starvation and cold.
However, there are also some tribes who know the power of the Ming Dynasty and dare not act rashly, for fear of revenge in the future, and are unwilling to rush forward. So they chose a more gentle Del method, which was to try their best to trade with the Ming Dynasty. Only by trading with each other can they get the food they need most and overcome the difficulties.
The King of Han took a very fierce approach. He blocked the "dream of thought" of these people and whipped the messenger, which was almost the most serious insult, and completely cut off the thoughts of these people.
After Hao Fenglou saw it, he just smiled bitterly and shook his head. He could understand more about the thoughts of the Han King. He had been imitating Zhu Di and his father. He was merciless in treating the enemy and had no room for maneuver.
Most of the King of Han would think that after receiving the report, the emperor would be very happy and favor him more.
But only Hao Fenglou knew that the King of Han had messed up this time. The King of Han still had a very superficial understanding of the emperor. Hao Fenglou knew this better than the King of Han. Zhu Di's so-called coldness and ruthlessness was actually just a means, and never his goal. He treated the enemy with ruthless means not because he got some pleasure from it, but just wanted to achieve his own goal.
This is true for killing Tie Xuan, as is the case for killing Fang Xiaoru, and even more so for Annan to mobilize troops.
However, Zhu Di obviously would not take such a method when dealing with Mongolia, because simple killing could not solve this problem. He guarded Beiping and was ordered to attack and surrounded a certain Mongolian army. He could kill all the Yuan army with a sound of attainment. However, he did not do so. Instead, he negotiated peace with the Yuan army and ordered them to surrender to the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Di had many ways to treat the enemy, just like he had countless faces. When he encountered this Yuan army that was almost in despair, instead of letting them get desperate, it would be better to give them a way out and finally use it for themselves. While weakening the power of the Northern Yuan, it also greatly increased his strength, and the other was rising and falling, and Liaodong was pacified.
The King of Han foolishly believed that killing and cruelty were the means to prove himself to the emperor. In fact, he thought it was wrong at the beginning.
Hao Fenglou couldn't help but sigh that the King of Han was indeed far from the opponent of the prince. If the emperor saw the report, the cracks that had already been caused to the King of Han would probably deepen.
Hao Fenglou couldn't help but ask himself, what would he do if it were himself, what would he do? If it were himself, or the emperor, he would definitely welcome these envoys, immediately summon all the generals, drink with these envoys, wait for the guests and hosts to have fun, immediately give rewards, and promise to trade with each other.
It won't take long to come, with this example, many tribes will send envoys, and some tribes that are incompatible with the Ming Dynasty will definitely covet the rewards given to the tribe by the Ming Dynasty, and will definitely send troops to loot the tribe. The reward is like a piece of fat. At this moment, when everyone finds that looting the Ming Dynasty is full of difficulties, but it is easier to loot those tribes that have good friends with the Ming Dynasty, these red-eyed wolves will abandon the Ming Dynasty without hesitation and raise a butcher knife to their tribes.
At that time, the Ming Dynasty would watch the wall, but the Mongolian tribes would be killed by life and death. Both sides would constantly consume their own vitality. On the other side of the pass, everyone would just laugh at it. Even if the winner was determined, the winner would show off his power, but he would hurt one thousand enemies and eight hundred of them, which would be a great damage to his vitality. In order not to suffer the disaster of extermination, the loser would have to ask for help from the Ming Dynasty and ask for help. Finally, like the three guards of Duoyan, he would be used by the Ming Dynasty.
Although this method may not solve all problems once and for all, Hao Fenglou believed that this was the most time-saving method. When the emperor encountered such a situation, he would make such a decision. If it were himself, the same would be true. As for the King of Han...
Hao Fenglou shook his head, thinking in his heart that the King of Han could have today was probably inseparable from his stupidity. Although the prince was born with a deficit, his advantage of the latecomer was obvious enough. On the other hand, the King of Han was smart and complacent. Fortunately, he tried his best to win over him at that time, but he did not join him.
Hao Fenglou revealed the report from the Shenwu Guard. This report was obviously more terrifying than the Jinyi Guard. It was still news from Datong. However, this time, it was about the King of Han privately talking to many generals. Not only that, many border towns in the north seemed to be ready to move.
At the same time, Ji Gang, the commander of the Jinyiwei, has been extremely active recently. In the border town, although the Jinyiwei has no normal system, there is a group of people lurking there. On the one hand, they collect information from the Beiyuan, and on the other hand, they monitor various border towns. These people have now completely decoupled from the Beizhen Prefecture Department and no longer report any news to the Beizhen Prefecture Department. Instead, they send one news after another to Ji Gang in the form of a hurry. These people seem to have been instructed by Ji Gang recently and have frequently visited many people in various towns. At the same time, this Lord Ji Gang also went to Peiping in person and went to Peiping to visit Liu Bi, the commander of the Beiping Prefecture Department.
Of course, those who can guard Peking will not be ordinary people. As a escort, Ji Gang followed the King of Han to Datong, but went to Peking to visit Liu Bi. What did you do?
Some of the problems were found on the Shenwu Guard. Their description was that since then, the defense of Beiping City was loose on the outside but tight on the inside, and suspected that it was planning a major event.
Hao Fenglou's face changed, planning major events... Datong... Beiping, and Jixian towns, all of them were stationed with more than 100,000 troops and horses in the Ming Dynasty, and many of them had deep connections with the King of Han. If it was to be wary of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, it would be absolutely unreasonable, because although Peiping is also one of the important border towns, the northern front line of Peiping has troops stationed in each town. If you want to seize Peiping, you must at least take down the defense line in the northern part of the country to have this possibility. It is absolutely safe to sit down to guard Peiping, so... why should it be loose on the outside and tight on the inside? Who should they be wary of?
The more I thought about it, the more uneasy Hao Fenglou felt, King of Han... Could this guy be really crazy...
It seems that the capital must have leaked the news and was desperate, and this crazy guy planned to take the risk.
Hao Fenglou continued to look at some details reported by Shenwuwei, such as the passes made things difficult for merchants and did not allow merchants to enter and exit the pass. For example, in Jixian, the court clearly transported military pay, but the commander-in-chief of Jixian County has been escorting it. The army was already dissatisfied and thought it was the court that owed military pay, and many people were resentful...
These news seemed to indicate something that something was going to happen in the border town or something big was happening.
Hao Fenglou did not dare to be negligent, so he quickly knocked on the desk. Zhou Sili was waiting outside. When he heard the movement, he hurried in and said, "What order do you have for me?"
Hao Fenglou had a serious expression: "These reports will be transferred immediately by the Ministry of Education and will be sent to the palace immediately. It should be fast and not delayed. If there is any mistake, you and I will die and not forgive me."
