Chapter 477: Lure the Enemy Deep(2/2)
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and asked doubtfully.
"First of all, the New Year is approaching and it is a time when the whole country is rejoicing. It is not appropriate to use weapons to avoid causing turmoil."
"Secondly, I have found out that Beiyuan is preparing to invade the Ming Dynasty early next year. If you want to mobilize troops, you don't have to rush. You should postpone the initiative to launch an attack and instead station troops at the border and wait for the opportunity!"
"When Bei Yuan invades our country next year, we will take advantage of the enemy's low vigilance to counterattack, and we will definitely defeat Bei Yuan! At that time, we can use the east wind to gather superior forces and push directly into the hinterland of Bei Yuan. With one go, we will be able to severely damage Bei Yuan! "
Hu Fei looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said firmly.
After listening to Hu Fei's explanation, Zhu Yuanzhang stood up from the couch excitedly, his expression kept changing, and he was a little excited.
"When did you know that Beiyuan was going to launch troops against our Ming Dynasty?!"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Hu Fei and asked in surprise.
"Shortly after the incident of the Japanese mission, after returning to Beijing from the Northern Territory last time, I secretly sent people to the Northern Territory and lurked in various places in the Northern Yuan Dynasty. In order to achieve unexpected effects, I never reported to my father.
Report it, and hope that my father will forgive me."
Hu Fei bowed respectfully and said with a hint of self-reproach.
"well!"
"Well done, I don't blame you!"
"Is the news true?!"
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said with satisfaction, unable to conceal his excitement in his words.
"Absolutely true!"
Hu Fei nodded and answered loudly.
"good very good!"
"In this case, according to what you just said, we will wait for the Beiyuan army to get into the pockets we prepared in advance and catch turtles in the jar!"
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he couldn't help being overjoyed and said excitedly.
"But Father, before the time is ripe, it is best not to tell anyone else about this matter, so as not to leak the news, including Wei Guogong."
"Your Majesty can first order them to lead troops to the northern border in batches, so as not to cause a sensation, and then just let them secretly deploy defenses at the border. When the time is right, the plan will be announced."
Hu Fei hesitated for a moment and whispered a warning.
"I understand."
"If this Northern Expedition succeeds, I will definitely remember you for your great achievements! I will reward you generously!"
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said with approval.
"To share the worries of the father, the sons and ministers cannot ask for it and dare not take credit for it."
Hu Fei smiled, bowed and said modestly.
After hearing Hu Fei's answer, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction, with a smile of relief on his lips. He felt more and more that Hu Fei was no longer as annoying as he was at the beginning.
After Hu Fei discussed some details with Zhu Yuanzhang, he resigned. From the beginning to the end, the smile on Zhu Yuanzhang's face never stopped.
As Hu Fei left, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately sent someone out of the palace to summon Xu Da to the palace for an audience. At the same time, Tang He and Fu Youde also received the summons and went to the palace one after another...
