Emperor Ming Dynasty

Chapter 245
"Borrow, why not borrow?"

A majestic tiger skin was laid on the beautifully carved bench. The huge head rested on the armrest, the tiger's eyes were hollow, and the teeth were bared.

His Royal Highness King Yu leaned back, feeling the softness of the tiger's skin, holding a little yellow dog in his right hand, and several of them were playing around on the reclining chair.

On the other side, gathered four or five steps away, a big yellow dog was lying down depressed and cautiously, looking at the owner and the playful puppies, with big eyes worried and expectant.

The tiger skin is too deterrent.

As a family-raised old Huang, the most valuable property in the family when he was poor, from Dasanguan to Hanzhong, and then to Xiangyang, he lived a very stable life, and arranged with three wives and four concubines, the old tree bloomed, and he had no regrets.

Rubbing Gouzi's little head, Zhu Yixi looked indifferent, and said unhurriedly: "As far as I know, He Tengjiao used Jiangxi's money and food to train [-] soldiers and horses!"

Zhao Shu and Zhang Shenyan made a gesture of listening, while Sun Changzhou hurriedly stood up, bowed and said, "That's right, he summoned Fu Shangrui, Yan Qiheng and other Huguang scholars to train troops and dispatch generals."

"They're all literati?"

Zhao Shu said in surprise.

"They're all literati." Sun Changzhou replied.

"Using literati to train soldiers, Governor He is really a fantastic idea, and he is worthy of being the pillar of the country."

Zhu Yixi curled her lips and said ironically, "I want to see how he is."

"Give him an excuse. In addition, I also allow him to purchase military rations and supplies to solve the court's worries."

Sensing King Yu's thoughts, Zhang Shenyan glanced at Zhao Shu again, and said tentatively, "If Governor He arrives in Guizhou and joins forces with the local troops to send troops, although we can attack Yunnan, it will also pose a threat to Huguang."

"Threat? Can't talk about it!"

Zhao Shu was disdainful in his heart, and said lightly: "Soldiers and horses that have not fought are not as good as ordinary auxiliary soldiers. Our local guards are enough to beat him to death."

"Hey!!" King Yu interrupted him, solemnly said: "We are utterly loyal to the imperial court, don't mention any threats, these are words to provoke right and wrong."

As he said that, he smiled and said to himself: "Governor He is not so unwise, and the water in Jiujiang can't raise idiots."

Everyone understood and laughed.

Prime Minister Hui Deng and Bai Wang are stationed in Jiujiang. How can such rough people benefit He Tengjiao? He Tengjiao is threatened by soldiers and horses. He doesn't know how powerful King Yu is.

At this time, Feng Xianzong, the chief of staff who had no strong sense of presence, laughed softly: "Governor He has gone to Guizhou, so the other half of Jiujiang is vacant?"

"Jiujiang?" Zhu Yixi patted the dog and began to think.

As the gate of Jiangxi Province, Jiujiang is very sensitive.

Jiangxi, which is full of talents, has rich agriculture and many people, which is much better than Huguang, which is sparsely populated. Of course he wants it.

However, how could Jiangxi, as the food bag of the Hongguang court, be handed over?
Huguang and Sichuan haven't eaten cleanly, so don't rush for a while.

"It's limited to Jiujiang."

King Yu's eyes were fixed, and he said unquestionably: "Without my military order, no one is allowed to step out of Jiujiang and provoke the court."

"Yes!" Feng Xianzong nodded hurriedly.

"Your Highness, if you take full control of Jiujiang, you can recruit people from Jiangxi to farm and reclaim wasteland."

At this time, Zhao Shu suddenly became a little excited: "Whether it is to reclaim arable land or repair the official road of the post station, people are needed, a lot of people."

"In Jiangxi Province, the households are dense and the fields are narrow, so it can be recruited."

"is it?"

Zhu Yixi's brows eased, and she smiled: "I didn't expect to have such benefits. This way, I still have to borrow it."

"Strictly monitor the army, and don't allow it to plunder the people and disrupt the people's livelihood. This king has managed to stabilize Huguang, so we can stop tossing about."

"If it happened, how should we deal with it?"

Zhang Shenyan asked cautiously.

"Kill or kill!"

King Yu said lightly: "Our military discipline is not only strict with ourselves, but also with others."

"Even officers and soldiers?"

"Even officers and soldiers."

Zhu Yixi said word by word: "In Huguang, no lawbreakers are allowed, otherwise, I will kill them."

With Prince Yu's personal statement, everyone was confident and began to arrange routes.

Zhu Yixi got impatient, got up and came to Da Huang, watching him wagging his tail happily and sticking out his tongue, he couldn't help but think of his embarrassing life in Xi'an.

At that time, I wanted to sell my dog ​​more than once to make a living.

But, after selling the dog, what is left?What next?

"Rhubarb, as I said, you won't lose money if you follow me!"

Scratching his chin, Zhu Yixi looked softly, and said with emotion: "Now you have a lot of dog wives, and you are happier than people."

In the three months since time travel, it was the company of the yellow dog that allowed him to relax, accept the reality, and seize the opportunity to jump.

Chief Medical Officer, Craftsman, Youli, Chief Soldier, King Hanyang, and King Yu step by step, no less than a carp jumping over the dragon's gate.

Licking his palm, Rhubarb didn't know what his master was thinking.

"Cowardly dog!" Zhu Yixi shook his head, the cowardice engraved in his genes, even a tiger skin, would be intimidating.

"Your Highness, the wiring has been fixed..."

Zhao Shu hurriedly got up, and described the results of the discussion of several people.

Everyone looked down on He Tengjiao's strength.

Although the western thieves are weak, they are not something officers and soldiers can fight, especially when they travel thousands of miles to Yunnan to suppress the thieves.

Therefore, this is destined to be nothing.

For Zhu Yixi, He Tengjiao is equivalent to a pioneer.

Without his failure, how can he set off his success?
Only the failure of the court to suppress the thieves will he have an opportunity to take advantage of.

At that time, reaching out to the two provinces of Yun and Guizhou can be said to be a matter of course.

……

Jiujiang.

After He Tengjiao learned of the imperial edict, he was instantly stunned.

He gritted his teeth in hatred for Ma Shiying,

It's really okay for fellow villagers to pit fellow villagers.

Is the thief so easy to take down?
Compared with the Nanjing court, he can see clearly.

In today's world, the first-class army is the Manchu Eight Banners, followed by the King of Yu, the intruders, the Western thieves, and finally the officers and soldiers of the imperial court.

"The imperial court is going to push me into the fire pit"

On the side, Fu Shangduan frowned and said: "Duxian, Jiujiang is like a dead place now, King Yu's soldiers and horses are staring at him, every move is in front of his eyes, and it is difficult to move."

"Instead of staying in Jiujiang and being a governor in name only, it's better to go to Guizhou, sit in Yunnan and Guizhou, and then point directly at King Yu from his heart."

He Tengjiao squinted his eyes, hesitantly, he didn't yearn for the real governor, but the thief was really difficult to deal with.

Yan Qiheng said softly: "Move the tree to die, move the people to live, the governor has been in Jiujiang for half a year, and the court has already aroused disgust, changing the place is the only way."

Hearing that both of them were persuading, He Tengjiao became more and more shaken, with a troubled expression on his face.

He paced up and down, looking at the picture of a tiger descending the mountain in the hall, the ferocious face made people fearful, and couldn't help but say:
"It's not that I have no intention of Guizhou. The western thieves are coming so fiercely. I'm afraid I can't resist it and live up to the grace of God."

"Duxian, now only landlubbers can be put on the shelves. The imperial court's decree has been issued, and it cannot be refused."

Fu Shangduan said in a deep voice.

"Army's words."

At this time, Yan Qiheng suddenly raised his head, his eyes were piercing and he said: "Since Zuo Liangyu was defeated by King Yu, he is now training in Nanjing and is in a downturn. Why doesn't Du Xian win him over?"

"Zuo Liangyu?"

He Tengjiao was taken aback, and then his eyes became brighter and brighter.

Although Zuo Liangyu is domineering and self-willed, and the military discipline is lax, but after all, he has been fighting for a long time, which is much better than their armies on paper.

Besides, the army is his own, how can a veteran act recklessly?
