Chapter 159: Rectify armaments! Gather an army! Prepare to destroy Jianzhou Jurchens!(2/2)

And the most puzzling thing is that Zhu Changluo's school time has also been changed. The time for the royal children of the Ming Dynasty to go to school is usually at Si hour every day (9 a.m. - 11 a.m.), and it is also very thoughtfully equipped.

Winter and summer vacations, in case continuous classes are too stressful.

But Zhu Changluo's class time was inexplicably set at Yin Shi (3-5 am) by Lao Wanli, which meant that Zhu Changluo would already get up to study before the rooster crows every day, and also canceled winter and summer vacations.

.

Then there is the teacher chosen for Zhu Changluo.

Generally speaking, the crown prince is the crown prince of the country, and the teachers chosen for the crown prince must all be talented people from the empire and highly respected literary figures across the country.

But Zhu Changluo's teacher is very strange. Let alone whether he is famous or not, one speaks with an incomprehensible southern accent all day long, and the other is a fat man who gasps for breath after saying two sentences.

But under such difficult conditions, Zhu Changluo could only endure it, and did not dare to show even the slightest bit of displeasure. After all, it would be good if he had food to eat, and he could still care about a few dishes.

However, even with such a configuration, I studied this book for less than two years. After the two teachers resigned due to personal reasons, it was inexplicably discontinued and no new teachers were chosen since then.

Since then, Crown Prince Zhu Changluo has never read any more.

No matter how many ministers in the court wrote to Old Wanli for months and months, and even a crowd of people knelt outside the Meridian Gate, begging Emperor Wanli to allow the crown prince to go out to study, it was still useless.

Old Wanli just ignored him, as if Zhu Changluo was not his son, and as if it was a sin to study with Zhu Changluo.

Compared with Zhu Changxun, the King of Fortune, Zhu Changluo's treatment is completely different.

"Well, let your eldest grandson Zhu Youxiao go out to study together."

Speaking of Zhu Youxiao, the eldest grandson of Lao Wanli.

It was the carpenter who was easily soluble in water. Ji Boying felt miserable for him.

Since his father didn't even study, his son certainly didn't go to school. Therefore, Zhu Youxiao never had a day of serious royal education until the day he ascended the throne at the age of sixteen.

Naturally, the same is true for his younger brother Chongzhen Zhu Youjian who succeeded him.

Neither brother has received a serious royal education, and they have not even mastered the basic secrets of the emperor.

Of course, later generations called Zhu Youxiao an illiterate emperor, which was a bit too dark.

After all, Zhu Youxiao is the eldest son of the Crown Prince. Even if he can't afford to go to a serious royal school, he can still afford private tutors, and there are literate eunuchs around him to teach him. It's impossible for him to be illiterate.

It is said that the cultural level is indeed not high.

Quite completely, this old Wanli never considered that his children and grandchildren would take over the country after he sent it.

The fact that he never allowed the prince to study can also be seen from the side. Old Wanli really lived with the mentality of "I am done with enjoying myself in this life, and I will let the flood flood after my death".

"If you don't respect the teachings of the prince, are you going to destroy our Ming Dynasty?!"

Lao Zhu glanced at Lao Wanli coldly.

"The Immortal Master emphasized the importance of educating the prince over and over again in class, but you have neglected the prince's studies to this point. It is simply stupid!"

Even A Biao couldn't stand it any longer, and rarely reprimanded Lao Wanli, the later emperor.

On weekdays, Abiao rarely comments on these future emperors.

After all.

These are all the descendants of Yan Fan, and his Zhu Biao lineage has long since withered.

Therefore, he would hardly give any reprimands to these future emperors, and it would always be Lao Zhu Di or Zhu Laosi who would take the initiative.

"You loser!"

The Jiajing Immortal slapped Old Wanli on the back of the head.

The two emperors after him, one was his son and the other was his grandson, made people's blood pressure soar. This does not mean that his Jiajing Immortal seeds are not good.

As for Zhu Youtang and Zhu Houzhao, the two father and son have no feelings at all.

After all, the Jiajing branch was passed down from Zhu Jianshen.

Old Wanli lowered his head and did not dare to speak at all. He had no room for excuse at all in not allowing the prince to study.

Ji Boying glanced at Old Wanli, who had his head lowered, and continued.

"Fifth."

"It's also the last one."

"From now on, full pay will be paid to the armies of the Nine Borders, especially the towns in Liaodong, and armaments will be reorganized. The armies of North Korea and Ye He will be summoned to gather troops in Liaodong to prepare for the destruction of the Jurchen Jin Kingdom."

The words fell.

The emperors Lao Zhu, Lao Zhu Di, and Zhu Laosi all had fighting intent in their eyes.

For this Wanli dynasty, to destroy Hou Jin and kill Nurhaci, this is what they look forward to most.

"After we defeat this Jurchen, we will personally compete with this Nurhaci."

Old Zhu Di also nodded.

"I also want to see what kind of person this Nurhaci is, who can actually defeat our Ming Dynasty and steal the Central Plains."

When the other emperors and princes heard this, they all became angry and wished they could go to Nurhaci immediately and chop him alive.

Only Lao Wanli looked shocked and a little confused when he heard this.

"Master Immortal, Nurhachi is nothing more than a savage, and the so-called Kingdom of Jin is just a tiny place, so why waste so much effort (waste of money)."

"You know shit."

Usually when old Zhu Di comes forward, Zhu Laosi will watch silently, but this time he also glared at old Wanli and scolded him sternly.

"The Jin Kingdom established by Nurhaci in Jianzhou later replaced me, the Ming Dynasty, and took control of the Central Plains. All this was because you didn't care about state affairs and just sat back and watched Nurhaci grow bigger and raise tigers."

Old Wanli was stunned for a moment.

Replace the Ming Dynasty? Take control of the Central Plains?!

He had acted badly to the extreme, but in Lao Wanli's heart, if anyone dared to take advantage of Ming Dynasty, he could not act badly.

When most of Korea had been captured by the Japanese, the officials of the Ming court were still arguing endlessly about whether to fight or not. At this time, a decree from Lao Wanli came from the harem, and the final decision was made to send troops to Korea immediately.

This was true for the Three Great Marches, and so was the Battle of Sarhu.

In the original historical Battle of Saarhu, Lao Wanli paid special attention to this battle. Not only did he specially issue an order to Yang Hao, the governor of the front line, to urge the battle, he even gritted his teeth and paid for the shortfall of the Liaodong army from the inner treasury.

Pay for it.

It's a pity that he underestimated Nurhachi and the Eight Banners Cavalry, thinking that this time was no different from previous counter-insurgency campaigns, and in the end he lost even his underwear.

"Yes, I will issue an order tomorrow to recruit a large army to prepare for war in Liaodong."

Old Wanli responded quickly.

"Hmm."

"Just assemble the army, there is no need to send generals."

Ji Boying specifically noted this.

Although the generals of the Wanli Dynasty, including Li Rubai, wanted to defeat Nurhachi's Eight Banners cavalry on the frontal battlefield, it was still a bit difficult.

"Brother, we had a special discussion with Biao'er Laosi and the others. In the battle of Salhu, there is no problem with the strategy of dividing the troops first and then joining forces. Judging from the terrain of Salhu, it is also the best.

Method."

"The most important problem is that the various armies were unable to stop Nurhaci, but were defeated one by one."

"Therefore, in our opinion, what we need in this battle is field vanguard generals. The generals who advance each way must be strong generals who can compete with Nurhachi's cavalry on the front battlefield."

The words fell.

Old Zhu Di's eyes flashed.

"I will lead the way!"

Ji Boying didn't pay attention to what Zhu Di said.

At Lao Zhu Di's current age, he has long passed the stage of being a pioneer.

In Ji Boying's mind, the best candidate who can finally defeat Nurhaci has been decided.

Lao Zhu also nodded with concentration.

"Since this battle is going to be fought, we must use the Ming Dynasty's national prestige. We must defeat these Jurchen braids head-on with absolute crushing in the wilderness! Defeat these ignorant savages!"

"Let these Jurchen savages know that our Ming Dynasty is inviolable! The Han border is inviolable!"

At this moment, Lao Zhu also has the best candidate in his heart.

The two looked at each other and saw the answer in their own eyes.

I can conquer the world with 100,000 people, but who dares to call me a true hero?
