I'm a big dick

Chapter 332 The role of fake newspapers?
Seeing the depressed and melancholy young emperor's face, Sun Chengzong sighed inwardly.

The emperor took over a mess when he was young, and slavery was rampant in Liaodong. After the battle of Sarhu and Liaoshen, he had already occupied more than half of Liaodong.

Xiong Tingbi in Liaoxi has experienced ups and downs many times, but he is still evaded by Wang Huazhen. The economic strategy and the governor are at odds, and there are already many hidden dangers on the front line of Guangning.

However, the party struggle in the court was fierce, and the officials attacked each other. They did not pay attention to the country's major affairs, but only cared about the party's unity and cutting down differences.There are even more sanctimonious people, who talk about benevolence and morality, but behave greedily and shamelessly, even daring to fill their pockets in the name of drifting military supplies.

The Donglin faction even controlled the imperial court by virtue of their support, and almost all of the six divisions and nine ministers were Donglin, who controlled the imperial power through court discussions and interfered in the appointment of officials everywhere, especially in the case of Liaodong Jingfu's peace.

These did not arouse Sun Chengzong's vigilance at the time, and he also deeply agreed with the generosity and justice of the Donglin Party.

Of course, this is understandable. Sun Chengzong was not in an important position at that time. Although he was the emperor's teacher, he was just a left-bearer and did not have a thorough understanding of the specific situation of Daming.

When the Guangning war broke out, the emperor quietly issued a decree, secretly mobilized people from all over the place, and even used the factory guards to take down Wang Huazhen and give Xiong Tingbi the right to make decisions.

Sun Chengzong also disapproved of the emperor's violation of court conventions.But the facts have proved that the emperor's emergency and power saved Guangning, defeated Jiannu for the first time, and hit Jiannu's momentum of repeated victories.

Tens of thousands of officers and soldiers and hundreds of thousands of Liao people were preserved because of the emperor's arbitrariness.Hundreds of thousands of shi of grain, beans, and incalculable materials were not seized by Jiannu, but became the capital for its continued growth.

In the battle report afterwards, Sun Chengzong also had to admit that the emperor saved the dangerous situation in Liaodong, so that the war situation did not become corrupt and out of control.

Next, the emperor strengthened his confidence because of Guangning's victory, and he seemed to have seen through the essence of Donglin officials in the court hall - usually impassioned, but temporarily unable to do anything.

By holding Wang Huazhen accountable, a group of civil officials who criticized Xiong Tingbi were expelled; through Li Sancai's corruption case, a large number of Donglin officials were cleared.

Reusing the factory guards, not following the rules, the young emperor is not afraid of rumors, not afraid of clear discussions, it is tantamount to going into battle shirtless, and fighting with the civil official group in person.

The power of the imperial power is indeed irresistible. As long as the emperor is determined and not afraid of stigma, the civil servants will have no power to fight back under heavy pressure.

After Sun Chengzong was shocked, he also re-examined his student.It has to be said that what the young emperor did has the legacy of Taizu and Chengzu.

It was not until Sun Chengzong was reused and became Minister of the Ministry of War and entered the cabinet to participate in politics that he discovered how shocking the shortcomings of Daming's military administration were, and how stretched Daming's finances were.

Even salaries are difficult to guarantee, so how can the frontline officers and soldiers fight desperately and strive for victory?
The few months when he took over as Minister of the Ministry of War were the busiest and most anxious time for Sun Chengzong.The war in Liaodong, the She'an rebellion, and the constant need for money, food, materials, weapons and equipment required him to raise and arrange them.

But the household department has no money, just no money.Sun Chengzong knew that the finances were not enough, but he didn't expect it to be so embarrassing.

This is Daming?With hundreds of millions of people and boundless land, nobles, officials, students, gentry, and merchants all live a very prosperous life. The vassal state admires the heavenly kingdom of the pilgrimage?

Internal money!Without hesitation, the young emperor took out his private money, rewards for winning battles, full military pay, sufficient food and supplies, and the weapons and gunpowder bureau that was almost equivalent to rebuilding, all of which were resolved...

Sun Chengzong looked at the young emperor's slightly frowning frown, forced himself to put away his complicated thoughts, and cupped his hands and said, "Long live, don't worry. In my humble opinion, the eastward movement of the Chahar tribe may not have much impact."

Zhu Youxiao smiled wryly, did not speak, and waited quietly for Mr. Sun to analyze and clarify his doubts.

"Of course the eastern captives will be destroyed, and the western captives will kill each other, which is also very beneficial to our Ming Dynasty. According to the current situation in Liaodong, if the Chahar tribe forces other tribes, such as Khalkha, they will have no choice but to choose Daming. , or choose Donglu..."

Sun Chengzong seems to have done research, and based on the thinking of the Ming people, the establishment of slaves and rebellion should be destroyed, and the Mongolian tribes are not real friends of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Youxiao blinked his eyes and listened patiently. Sun Chengzong was what most Ming people thought at that time.Just like in history, Chongzhen took advantage of the natural disasters in the grasslands, cut off the market rewards and horse markets, and wanted to starve to death the Mongolian tribes.

It stands to reason that there are no permanent friends, only permanent interests, and it is an unchangeable fact that Ming and the Mongolian tribes are at war.

But Zhu Youxiao didn't agree that all the Mongolian tribes could be surrendered by starvation.The northern nomads would not have been the enemies of the Central Plains Dynasty for thousands of years.

If the Chahar tribe defeated the pro-Ming Khalkha, the Ming army in Liaodong would lose an ally.But Huduntu didn't dare to fight Houjin, and couldn't help the Ming army.

More importantly, Zhu Youxiao wants to concentrate his efforts to destroy Jiannu, and does not want to interfere with Huduntu's actions by force.If the Chahar tribe moved eastward and clashed with the Khalkha tribe, the Ming army would be in a dilemma.

"...Liaozhen moved eastward, and the eastern captives did not dare to attack. It can be seen that after the two setbacks, the strength was greatly reduced and the supplies were scarce. Coupled with the oppression of the Liaonan and Dongjiang headquarters, they could not mobilize enough troops to resist. They may still think that we The army did not dare to take Guangning back hastily, perhaps waiting for our army's supply line to be stretched before launching a surprise attack..."

Jiannu seemed, probably, or had other concerns, Zhu Youxiao lowered his eyes, and vaguely felt that it was not as simple as Teacher Sun said.

According to the current strength of Liaozhen, it is not very sure to advance to Guangning at once.Xiong Tingbi occupied Youtunwei first in a more stable manner, and then waited for an opportunity to recover Guangning after it was stabilized. Zhu Youxiao also agreed.

Teacher Sun was still talking, meaning that while the Chahar tribe and the Khalkha tribe were fighting, they took the opportunity to gather the Mongolian tribe and naturalize them, thus strengthening the naturalized cavalry battalion led by Mangui.

Zhu Youxiao listened with his ears, but he was searching for the doubts that had just emerged in his heart.Suddenly, his eyes widened, and he finally thought of that possibility.

Fake newspapers, compiled the news of mobilizing the elite from the Nine Frontiers to join the Liao war, Jiannu should have seen it, right?This is a major military operation, Jian Nu will not be frightened and dare not act rashly, right?

Zhu Youxiao narrowed his eyes, the more he thought about it, the more likely it was.With such a tight border blockade, there are very few channels for Jiannu to obtain information...

Wang Tiqian stepped forward to refill the tea for the emperor and Sun Dishi, interrupting the emperor's narration and the emperor's thoughts.

Zhu Youxiao took a sip of tea, his thoughts became clear, and he felt that his judgment was almost correct.In this case, there may be a way, although there is no guarantee of absolute success.

Teacher Sun also talked dryly, took two sips of tea, and when he looked up again, he found that the emperor's face had cleared up.

Could it be that his explanation had an effect, and the emperor already had an idea, so he no longer worried about it?

Before Teacher Sun could speak, Zhu Youxiao had already stood up, and said with a smile, "Mr. Sun is on duty, so you don't have to work so hard. There are some political affairs that are not urgent, and it's okay to suppress them."

Teacher Sun hurriedly stood up, cupped his hands and said, "I'm still energetic, and I'm not used to putting down work and making others tired."

Zhu Youxiao was a little helpless, and turned to Wang Tiqian and said: "Bring the ginseng presented by the North Korean envoy to Master Sun."

Wang Tiqian respectfully agreed, leading the way, and Zhu Youxiao turned around and left the room.

After Sun Chengzong sent it out, he bowed and waited until the emperor walked away, and even the palace lanterns held by the palace people were barely visible, and then he turned around.

For the emperor's mind, Mr. Sun has seen clearly for more than a year.Although he has a worrying side, he is calm and calm most of the time.

Especially for the current two battles, he showed a calmness beyond his age.It is also this kind of unhurriedness and appropriate advance and retreat that makes the situation in Liaodong and Southwest tilt towards the Ming army.

Of course, Sun Chengzong still has some opinions on the emperor's heavy use of factory guards to attack officials, gentry, landlords, and students.

Although it was financial distress, the emperor used this method to raise money for the war, but in the end, if the tradition and rules were broken, his reputation would definitely be affected.

A generation of famous monarchs, why bother to tarnish their reputation.Either the method is more secretive, or people are topped, it is a choice!The emperor should understand the emperor's intentions and means, right?

Sun Chengzong went back to the house and thought about it for a while, then shook his head helplessly, took up the pen again, and began to deal with political affairs.

.....................

Zhu Youxiao returned to Qianqing Palace and immediately wrote a secret letter to Xiong Tingbi, asking him to send troops to Guangning as soon as possible.

It may not be that heavy troops are dispatched immediately, it may be only thousands of cavalry.But we must make a test, or let Jiannu see the intention of the Ming army to advance to Guangning.

Since Huduntu wants to receive the reward silver and open the horse market in Yixian County, Zhu Youxiao thinks it is impossible to stop it.Mad Cow Disease has occurred, and the veterinarian can't help it.

However, the Ming army could advance to Guangning and still maintain contact and liaison with the Khalkha tribe.In other words, it is still possible for the two to join forces to attack the Horqin Ministry.

At the same time, if Huduntu attacked the Khalkha tribe, there would be no obstacle for the Ming army to take over the Khalkha tribe.

Zhu Youxiao also asked Xiong Tingbi to transfer the Mangui and naturalized cavalry to the north of Guangning, and absorb the herdsmen from Khalkha's troops to act as a force to deter Huduntu.

Jiannu was probably frightened by the news in the fake newspaper. Although Zhu Youxiao judged this way, he was not sure.

However, Liaozhen continued to move eastward, and from the perspective of time, it was just able to cope with Liu Aita's countermeasures.

Conversely, Liu Aita's behavior will also make Jiannu's hands and feet flustered, and it will be difficult to concentrate their forces to launch an attack on the Ming army that is advancing eastward to Guangning.

Zhu Youxiao pondered for a moment, and then added the matter of instigating Liu Aita's rebellion.He believed in Xiong Tingbi. Although he was known as Xiong Tingbi with a big mouth, he believed that Xiong Tingbi would not disclose such a secret.

But if you don't make it clear, Xiong Tingbi will definitely have doubts about advancing to Guangning.Knowing that there will be drastic changes in southern Liaoning, Xiong Tingbi will naturally make better arrangements.

Finally unraveling the entanglement and depression, Zhu Youxiao stretched his waist and yawned.Sitting there thinking for a while, he waved his hand to Li Chengcheng, who was waiting beside him, to rest, and he ordered the palace servants to drive him to Wang Liangfei's palace for bed.

A little distracted, he even forgot that he promised to try Wang Liangfei's new handicraft at night.Zhu Youxiao looked at the stars all over the sky, smiled wryly, and thought that Concubine Wang Liang must have been disappointed and lay down to sleep.

The palace lanterns accompanied them all the way until Wang Liangfei's East Palace. To Zhu Youxiao's surprise, there were still lights on inside.

Moreover, Concubine Wang Liang quickly greeted her and greeted her outside the palace.

"Concubine Ai, let's get back together!" Zhu Youxiao was a little moved in his heart, he had been waiting for him all this time, he stepped forward to help Concubine Wang Liang with his own hands, and led them into the hall together.

There was no trace of complaint on Wang Liangfei's face, but surprise and joy.The emperor came late, but he still remembered to come, which showed that in the heart of the emperor, he was still very important.

"Long live." Concubine Wang Liang took Zhu Youxiao's arm when she entered the palace, and asked affectionately, "My concubine will warm up some food for you, just take a bite."

Feeling Wang Liangfei leaning against her body, Zhu Youxiao smiled.Concubine Wang Liang insisted on exercising, and she had already received the effect, her body became much stronger, and she was pushed up like a small car.

Well, and that squat, which is pretty awesome.

Zhu Youxiao swallowed, and said with a smile: "I'm not hungry, I'll taste Aifei's craft tomorrow morning, I'd better wash up and rest early!"

Concubine Wang Liang's face seemed to turn red, she turned her head and ordered the palace servants to prepare fragrant soup and serve the emperor to take a bath.

Zhu Youxiao sat on the bed with his arms around Aifei's slender waist, resting her chin with his fingers, staring at her four eyes, and laughed in unison.

Of the four daughters-in-law, only two are left to be used.

Zhu Youxiao leaned over and kissed him. He felt that as the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, he was not as good as the three wives and four concubines of a wealthy family, and he was embarrassed to say hello when he went out.

Well, collect seven and summon Shenlong.Make a wish, and the world will be peaceful...

Soaked in the warm fragrant soup, Zhu Youxiao slowly closed his eyes, moved his hands up and down, enjoying the exciting and smooth skin, and the woman's panting breath was sprayed into his ears.

………………

The night was dark, but Fuzhou City, which was thousands of miles away, was shrouded in the darkness of clouds covering the stars and the moon.

In the military mansion, in the study, Liu Xingzuo and his third brother Liu Xingren, who came back to report the letter, were sitting opposite each other, listening to Liu Xingren's report.

"Wang Bing is dead, died of a sudden illness, nothing unusual." Liu Xingren said simply, with a smile on his face, and let out a long breath.

In ancient times, it was not uncommon to die from a sudden illness.

There was no injury on the body, no trace of poisoning, and there was no autopsy or death certificate at that time. If he died suddenly, most of it would be attributed to his own hidden disease.

Liu Xingzuo nodded, and also admired Jin Yiwei's methods.The man did not die in the General Army Mansion, but Cao Zhenghua led people to sneak into Wang Bing Mansion and assassinate him.

Of course, the cooperation of Liu Xingzuo, Liu Xingren and Jin Shengkui is indispensable.Eliminating this hidden danger immediately made Brother Liu Xingzuo feel at ease.

Liu Xingzuo frowned suddenly, pointed out, and stood up at the same time as Liu Xingren.

There was a knock on the door, and there was some peculiarity in the interval. Liu Xingzuo breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that it was Jin Shengkui who led Cao Zhenghua back, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to open the door.
