Chapter 278 Depressed Again
The next day, Zhu Shou told what he had discussed with Ouyang Xiu, and there was an uproar in the court. Even Zhen Yi was the boss with an open mouth. Unexpectedly, the Northern Song Dynasty actually had such an operation, directly giving Beizhou to Sold.

"The heroes of Liangshan are known as 36 Tiangang and 72 Disasters. They are very powerful. They occupy the natural dangers of Liangshan and endanger the country and the country of the Northern Song Dynasty. It is no wonder that the Northern Song Dynasty is afraid of them. It is normal to take this opportunity and use our hands to eradicate these people. Li Dongyang touched his beard and said: "What I am worried about is that when we fight with Liangshan, our men and horses will also suffer a lot of losses."

"Your Majesty, I see that whether it is the Southern Song Dynasty or the Northern Song Dynasty, they actually want to use the Southern Song Dynasty to weaken the strength of our Ming Dynasty and trap our Ming Dynasty in Beizhou. Your Majesty must investigate. Zhen Yi said: "Beizhou has a very cold climate. Although it can produce black-scaled war horses, there are many mountains and forests. If these Liangshan bandits retreat to the mountains and forests, it will have an extremely negative impact on our army and affect our army's casualties." .”

"Well, what the Prime Minister said makes sense. In this world, it's not easy to take advantage. If you want to take advantage, you have to pay a price. Otherwise, why would they put fat meat into your mouth? In the land of Beizhou It must be occupied, but how to occupy it is a question worth thinking about." Zhu Shou clapped his hands and said: "Prime Minister, Zhen's shop travels all over the world and is very familiar with the terrain in the wilderness. I don't know how to operate in Beizhou. How is it?"

"Yes! Prime Minister Zhen, I believe that Zhen must have a map of Beizhou. If we can master the map of Beizhou, we will definitely get twice the result with half the effort against the Liangshan bandits." Jiao Fang said with a smile.

Zhen Yi secretly cursed in his heart that he had not benefited from anything, but these guys were starting to take advantage of him, but he did not dare not answer, and immediately replied: "Your Majesty, Beizhou in the Southern Song Dynasty is a bitter and cold place, and the population is not Although our Zhen family has shops in many cities, there are very few in some bitter and cold places."

Zhu Shou nodded with a calm expression. He didn't believe Zhen Yi's words. A Lotus Master of the Tianlian Sect had been hidden for so many years. Everyone thought he was an ordinary businessman, but who knew his true identity!But he is a giant of magic.

"What does Zhen Qing mean?" Zhu Shou was expressionless.

"Press forward step by step, one step at a time, and continue to kill the Liangshan bandits." Zhen Yi said loudly: "These Liangshan bandits are highly skilled in martial arts. If we underestimate the enemy and advance rashly, our food supply will be cut off by the other party. Only with the coordination of various ministries, can we Only by advancing hand in hand can we continuously compress the activity space of the Liangshan army and finally eliminate the Liangshan army."

Zhen Yi's meaning is very simple. There are many soldiers and horse masters in Liangshan. These guys will attack the army's food road. Only by pressing forward step by step and exchanging time for space can we effectively stop the attack of Liangshan masters.

"Your Majesty, I think this is not necessary. There are many martial arts masters accompanying our army, and their martial arts are strong enough to protect the safety of the grain road. Although there are many masters in Liangshan, they are not as many as our Ming Dynasty martial arts masters. Although Prime Minister Zhen said It’s an experienced saying, but it really takes too much time and is not recommended.” Jiao Fang retorted.

"Although the prime minister's suggestion will greatly delay our army's occupation of Beizhou, it is more reliable. It can reduce a lot of losses for our army." Zhen Yi shook his head and said.

Zhen Yi's words still make sense. Although the ministers in the DPRK don't like each other, they have to admit that his worries are not impossible.

"Li Qing, what do you think?" Zhu Shou's eyes fell on Li Dongyang.

"Your Majesty, since you have appointed Taifu as the general to command the troops, this matter should be left to the general. As for how the general arranges it, that is the general's business. If the general cannot solve the problem, he will naturally If you ask your Majesty for help, it will not be too late to discuss it at that time. Your Majesty will suffer some consequences." Li Dongyang smiled slightly. "Li Qing's words are very reasonable. We in the rear don't know the situation on the front line now. I believe that Taifu must have a way. If he doesn't have a way, we will just find a way at that time." Zhu Shou responded.

"Your Majesty, although the food and grass for our army are supported by the Southern Song Dynasty and the Northern Song Dynasty, I believe that food and grass are of great importance and cannot be left in the hands of others. We should also prepare some food and grass to avoid problems on the front line." Liu Jian suggested again. road.

"Not only food and grass, but also soldiers and horses must be prepared." Li Dongyang added.

"You two have thought carefully, so let's do it according to your ideas!" Zhu Shou was in a good mood. After all, he was a famous official in history. While contributing his own internal strength, he could also help him govern the country.

After Zhen Yi returned to his mansion, his face was still gloomy, without any elegance. He found that since he became the Prime Minister of the Ming Dynasty, there was no smile on his face. He had not been happy for a long time.

"Father, is King Ming ready to send troops?" Zhen Qing asked impatiently.

"The matters on the front line of Ming Dynasty have been handed over to Wang Yangming. King Ming will not interfere with the other party's actions, but he has made preparations. Once Wang Yangming encounters difficulties in the front, Ming's army will press forward. It is even possible for King Ming to do it himself. See Come on, King Ming attaches great importance to Beizhou, and he will not give up despite the difficulties. Although I have said a lot, it has no effect and cannot change the overall situation."

This is what makes Zhen Yi very angry. He has the ability, but in the Ming Dynasty, there is no way to lose the trust of King Ming. He is just a mascot placed there by King Ming.

"Humph, the terrain of Beizhou is complex and there are many mountains and forests. Those Liangshan bandits are all highly skilled in martial arts. Once they gather in the mountains and forests, it will not be an easy task for Ming Dynasty to defeat them. It is not known how many soldiers and horses will be lost. King Ming is still young. , Seeing profit and forgetting one's righteousness, don't you know the conspiracy of the Southern Song Dynasty and the Northern Song Dynasty to give up Beizhou to each other?" Zhen Qing couldn't help but sneered.

"What you said is nothing to him. Don't forget, when he was fighting with Nurhachi in Jianzhou, he directly set fire to the mountain. He has always been merciless to this enemy." Zhen Yi shook his head. , with a hint of fear on his face.

"Father, Beizhou will definitely fall into the hands of Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, Ming Dynasty's strength will skyrocket. Once Beizhou is in his hands, the entire Western Wilderness will be within the scope of his military front. The two Song Dynasties and the surrounding Dali, Xixia is definitely no match for the Ming Dynasty, and the black scale horses can easily send the Ming Dynasty soldiers and horses to all parts of the Western Wilderness." Zhen Qing was a little anxious.

"Of course I know what you're talking about. Hey, I'm afraid I'll have to ask for help this time." Zhen Yi shook his head.
