Chapter 116 Preparations for patrolling
Chapter 116 Preparation for patrol
To be precise, Zhu Qizhen did not want to fight in person, but wanted to patrol the border.
If the front line wins greatly, Zhu Qizhen is not going to wait for the army to return in Beijing, but is going to walk around in the Kaiping area of Daning under the escort of the Beijing Camp.
Zhu Qizhen had long been thinking about this matter.
I have been preparing to inspect Mongolia before.
Last year, Zhu Qizhen had this idea, but the battle of Dongshengwei was launched, and the ministers all opposed it.
Zhu Qizhen was also worried.
Zhu Qizhen is the one who cherishes his life the most.
After all, there are so many things that have not been done. Once you die, who can guarantee that your policies can continue?
Even because of the shadow of the Tumu Fort Incident, Zhu Qizhen had a trace of shadow on sending troops to fight.
But in the current situation, Zhu Qizhen has to do it.
Last year, Shi Heng openly criticized Li Wen, and this incident sounded the alarm for Zhu Qizhen. Zhu Qizhen felt that his control over the army was declining.
This is also impossible.
For soldiers, they are always willing to follow the general who can lead them to win battles, rather than the emperor who is far away in the capital.
Although Shi Heng is arrogant, he has the capital to be arrogant.
However, the army is a pillar at the core of Zhu Qizhen's power. After this pillar is shaken, the consequences are extremely serious.
Therefore, Zhu Qizhen had the idea of supporting civil officials to suppress military generals. Han Yong could use the Governor-General of Guangdong and Guangxi to fight in Datengxia. Although Han Yong had the ability, the north could not draw out his commanding ministers for a while.
However, it may not be a reflection of Zhu Qizhen's thoughts.
Zhu Qizhen was not willing to do this.
After all, if you do this, you will be on the old path.
Zhu Qizhen outlined a conquering force for the future army, and the severance officer, that is, the supervisor of the army, will reach the bottom level in the future, and even hundreds of households. Most of the officers are from martial arts and are disciples of the emperor. They have been separated from the logistics and other means, which can ensure the emperor's control over the army.
But it takes time to develop to this point.
Although everything is booming now, for example, during this week of military dispatch, the officials headed by Wang Yue participated in the military war.
Hundreds of martial arts students graduate every year, participate in the army, and become the most grassroots generals in the army.
However, when this new system has not been fully in place and the old system has been broken a lot, it is a gap.
Especially Shi Heng, his foundation is mostly in Haixi.
But how long did Haixi belong to the Ming Dynasty? Most of the people in Haixi are Jurchens, and there are a large number of North Korean immigrants, so how loyal these immigrants are to the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, it is easy to appear under Shi Heng's command. He only knows General Shi, but not Emperor Zhu's level.
This has become a fait accompli. Of course, although this situation embarrasses Zhu Qizhen, it is not unacceptable.
Because Zhu Qizhen understood it a long time ago.
Although he is the Supreme Lord of Nine Five, can the Supreme Lord of Nine Five be in charge of all the affairs of the world? This is simply impossible. Even the old man in later generations sighed that he can only manage the affairs of Beijing City, and he cannot control the affairs outside of Beijing City.
Zhu Qizhen felt that his own management ability was not as good as that of the old man, and he could not manage even some dark places in Beijing.
He saw it, just what the people below wanted to see.
There are too many things in various places that say one thing and sing another. Take many ward offices as an example. Zhu Qizhen really wants to remove the cancer by making drastic moves to see if they rebel or not.
There are also the chieftains in the southwest, and even King Xiang of Luchuan, who were not necessarily obedient to Zhu Qizhen.
Therefore, Zhu Qizhen can be regarded as invisible as Shi Heng's current situation. As long as Shi Heng can win the Ming Dynasty, we will talk about the future.
Even Shi Heng was loyal all his life, Zhu Qizhen could even accommodate his special interests in Haixi.
Of course, the premise of all this is that Shi Heng will not conflict with Zhu Qizhen's major politics.
If Shi Heng didn't know who he was? Zhu Qizhen naturally had to have a fight with Shi Heng to let Shi Heng know what killing is without a knife.
But this situation like Shi Heng can no longer happen.
As mentioned before, Shi Heng's situation has his special environment. If Zhu Qizhen worked hard to establish the Beijing camp, it would be divided up by several commanders.
Zhu Qizhen fell into a political passive instead.
This is something that Zhu Qizhen must not allow.
Although the emperor was the natural commander of all armies in the Ming system, there was always a gap between reality and ideals.
In order to prevent problems from abruptly, Zhu Qizhen greatly strengthened his participation in military affairs.
For example, Zhu Qizhen took out more than one million taels to reward the army, which was one of them.
But it is not enough just to do so.
The only one who gives money is the funder.
If the army wants to convince the emperor, the best way is to integrate the identities of the emperor and the commander. Taizu and Taizong were both like this, and even Emperor Xuanzong wanted to follow this path.
But Zhu Qizhen had the shadow of the Tumu Fort Change in his heart.
He was allowed to command the army deeply, and even if the winning rate was extremely high, Zhu Qizhen was unwilling to do so. When he came to worry, he would not be able to take the position of commander. If he escaped Tumu Fort and another Fortress came, Zhu Qizhen would have no place to cry.
In addition, he did not think that the current crown prince and even the queen could support the situation in the Ming Dynasty.
Don’t look at Chen Xun in front of Zhu Qizhen. He is like a three-order husband, a good baby, and very obedient, because Chen Xun is facing Zhu Qizhen.
If Chen Xun was asked to face the prince, Zhu Qizhen would not dare to think about what it would be like.
Generally speaking, the ministers selected by Zhu Qizhen were also people who were quite capable of doing things in the center of the Ming Dynasty.
Most people with ability have tempers. Not to mention anything else, just take Shi Heng as an example. In a word, this is not a young minister, and it is the most appropriate.
Once Zhu Qizhen feels that he can't survive, Shi Heng will definitely be sentenced to death.
But Zhu Qizhen does not want to participate in military operations and wants to increase its influence on the army. What should we do?
Zhu Qizhen came up with one thing, that is, hunting.
Sometimes they had to go to the city. The Ming army was very Mongolian in many things, especially above the cavalry. Mongolia trained the army by hunting.
Zhu Qizhen also wanted to use this method to strengthen the connection with the army, and could even make some adjustments to the army through the credits during the hunting.
More importantly, in such an action, we contacted a large number of middle and lower-level officers to let them know that the emperor was a living person, not a spiritual position or a archway.
If this time is a great victory, Zhu Qizhen will prepare to inspect Daning, reward the three routes of people, and hunt in the Daning area, while shocking the Mongolian tribes.
It can be said that killing two birds with one stone.
Zhu Qizhen had this idea. Although there were still some things to do before the victory, it was always a big deal for the emperor to go on a tour. If others didn't tell him, it would be impossible for Zhu Qizhen not to tell Chen Xun.
Chen Xun may know the profound meaning of Zhu Qizhen, but perhaps he doesn't.
After all, Zhu Qizhen's soul came from later generations. He did not believe in any monarch, minister, and minister. He only believed in interests, strength, and checks and balances.
Even if Zhu Qizhen told Chen Xun this thought, Chen Xun would definitely think that Zhu Qizhen's suspicion was too serious.
There is no way to do this, suspicion has always been the emperor's occupational disease.
This caused Chen Xun a big trouble.
After the emperor went on a tour, who will take charge of the capital, how to ensure the emperor's safety, etc. This has too much workload, and now it cannot be revealed when the victory or defeat on the front line is not decided.
But Zhu Qizhen didn't care about this. After all, the prime minister must have the responsibility of the prime minister, otherwise what would Chen Xun do, as the prime minister?
His heart is no longer in Beijing, but in Mobei.
More than ten years of preparation, many years of planning.
Zhu Qizhen remembered that he had countless sleepless nights, holding a candle and looking at the tens of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in the north of the desert, from one point to another, and then found the archives of the general, from one name to another.
Even military supplies, military systems, and improvement of firearms, etc.
Zhu Qizhen doesn't remember how much effort he spent.
But he did not regret it at all. If he really destroyed Watanabe in one fell swoop, even if he died of illness now, he would have a place among the ancient emperors.
