Dividing the troops

Zhu Qizhen ordered someone to take the map and said, "You can choose a location yourself."

Tuotuobuhua was overjoyed and pointed at the Onan River and said, "My ancestors raised an army from the Onan River..."

"Not here, change another place!"

Zhu Qizhen understood what he meant and interrupted directly.

Onan River has given Duoyan three guards. You go back now, where can you let Duoyan three guards go?

Tuotuobuhua was immediately displeased and secretly nervous.

In his consciousness, the Han people have always been cunning, but they didn't expect to be so excessive. They wanted to pay the debt before the battle was over?

Zhu Qizhen saw his thoughts and said, "I asked you to change another place, but I didn't say I won't give it to you. Mobei is so big, do you have to stare at the Onon River?"

Tutuobuhua scratched his head and said, "The ancestral tomb of our Golden Family is still in the Onon River..."

Zhu Qizhen suddenly smiled and asked back: "Where are the ancestral tombs of your ancestors hidden? Can you still find them?"

Whether it was the Genghis Khan at the time or the later Emperors of the Yuan Dynasty, their tombs were very special, and their biggest feature was that they could not be found!

When the Mongolian emperor was buried, there was a separate process, mainly a random one.

It was just a random search for a place on the grassland and buried it. After that, thousands of horses galloped and flattened the tomb. There was no map, coordinates, and no reference objects. When the grass grew in the coming year, it was completely impossible to distinguish.

Such a tomb is very secretive. Not to mention tomb robbers, even the entourage who went to bury that year could only sigh at the grass.

When later generations sacrificed their sacrifices, they used a special method, which was to bring a mare and a young horse when the emperor was buried, and then kill the young horse in front of the mare.

The next year, he brought his mare to the grassland. The old horse knew the way. When the mare saw the place where his child died, he would cry endlessly. This place was recognized as the place where the mausoleum was located. After the sacrifice, all traces were cleared again.

However, it has been five years since the Tatar tribe left Mobei, and the mare left behind has long disappeared. Even if they want to go to sacrifice, they will not find the tombs of their predecessors.

Tuotuo Buhua thought for a long time, then casually slashed in Mobei and said, "These places are OK."

Zhu Qizhen shook his head again and said, "Not here can do it."

"Why?"

"This is my land, and I have set up garrisons and yamen, and all the people have been resettled. What's the matter if you suddenly come over?"

Tuotuobuhua finally changed his face. Do you really have to be responsible for the debt?

I thought those officials had no lower limit, but I didn’t expect that your great emperor would also be able to quit the way of killing a donkey?

"Your Majesty, you agreed in person!"

"I promised you, but I didn't say I wanted to support you. If you want to survive, you have to fight for it yourself."

Tuotuobuhua was completely confused and asked, "What does it mean?"

Zhu Qizhen slowly passed by the map, and continued to the northwest...

Tuotuobuhua's expression tightened and his eyes moved.

Finally, it stopped in the Yenisei River Basin northwest of the Ming Dynasty.

"This is... the territory of Oirat?"

Zhu Qizhen smiled faintly and said, "To be precise, it is now the territory of Oirat."

Speaking of this, it is still unclear where Tutuobuhua is.

There is no free beef jerky in the world. If you want to gain a place of survival, you have to fight it yourself and kill the Oirat, and the place will be Tatars.

He pondered for a long time and said, "There are less than two thousand people in our army who can fight, the Ola army..."

"You don't need to worry about these. I will satisfy you no matter whether you need men, weapons, equipment, or logistics supplies!"

Tuotuobuhua was immediately overjoyed and said, "If the emperor had the help of him, the mere Ola would be just a group of native chickens and tiles!"

"I can't divide my troops yet, so you must slow down your affairs."

"I'll just ask the emperor to give me instructions. I will help the emperor to quell the rebellion first. Otherwise, how can I have the shame to ask for troops and equipment?"

Zhu Qizhen nodded and said, "You are a smart person. If you have too many, I won't say anything. When I kill you back to the capital, what I promised you will be fulfilled!"

Tuotuobuhua strode his hands and saluted: "I obey the order!"

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Qizhen summoned Yu Qian again.

"All the ministers under your command have participated in the rebellion. You, the minister, are you unaware of it?"

Yu Qian was obviously not sure about the seriousness of the matter and was stunned on the spot.

"Your Majesty, where do you start with this...?"

Zhu Qizhen knew that he had just returned from the north and was not aware of what happened in the court, so he explained everything in detail.

Yu Qian thought it was just Tuotuobuhua who bribed the inner support of the court, but he didn't expect that someone in the court planned a coup, and the Tatar tribe was just a knife.

Things are far more serious than imagined. Tuotuobuhua successfully entered Mobei. How could the real person behind the scenes not take action?

In this way, the capital is in danger!

What is even more infuriating is that the planner, or the main planner of this coup, was actually the left and right minister of the Ministry of War.

And I, the Minister of War, had no idea in advance!

"I am not guilty of my crime, but now I can only fight to the death to repay the holy grace!"

Zhu Qizhen looked at him coldly, but after all, he sighed.

"Your problem will be calculated in the future. Now I will give you a task."

Yu Qian hurriedly replied: "Please give me instructions!"

Zhu Qizhen pointed to the map and said, "I have thought about it and said that those who can plan a coup must have a deep foundation in the court. Before I took power, the court was headed by the Three Yangs, and their disciples, children, relatives and friends were already spread all over the court. Today's affairs are most likely to be inseparable from these people."

Yu Qian immediately broke out in a cold sweat. These three were old ministers who had experienced five dynasties and were recognized by the world as virtuous ministers.

Moreover, San Yang's influence was not only the court, but also the leading one in the literary world.

People all say that Yang Shiqi has knowledge, Yang Rong has talent and knowledge, and Yang Pu has elegant caution. Almost all the good names in the world are occupied by three people. How could it be involved in the word "rebellion"?

Zhu Qizhen continued: "The Three Yangs have too deep roots in the court. Before Emperor Taizong moved the capital, all the gentry in the Jiangnan area followed the Three Yangs, and these people were worried about."

Yu Qian didn't understand and murmured: "Three Lords Yang... It's impossible..."

Zhu Qizhen suddenly asked, "What's impossible?"

Yu Qian calmed down and said, "Three Masters Yang have both character and respectable..."

Zhu Qizhen sneered and asked again: "You forgot how Yang Shiqi retired?"

Yu Qian was stunned. Yang Shiqi had been in the cabinet for more than 40 years and served as the chief minister for 21 years. After Emperor Xuanzong passed away, Zhu Qizhen succeeded to the throne at the age of eight. All major affairs in the court were presided over by the three Yangs. Such an important official of the country finally asked to retire and return home because of the murder case of his son Yang Ji, and he died of depression since then.

"The emperor clearly criticized and Lord Yang resigned because he was attacked by Wang Zhen's party..."

"If his son didn't kill anyone, what would Wang Zhen attack him?"

Yu Qian was silent. Yes, this matter was in the final analysis, and the Yang family was wrong.

In the seventh year of Zhengtong, Empress Dowager Zhang died. Wang Zhen was in charge of the court alone. If all officials were dissatisfied, all the court officials would be arrested. Only Yang Shiqi could compete with him.

However, unexpectedly, Yang Ji, the son of Yang Shiqi, was arrogant and bullied men and women in his hometown, and even caused death.

Then the censor impeached the case to the capital. In the face of ironclad evidence, Yang Shiqi had to admit that his family education was not strict and resigned due to his old illness.

After Yang Ji was executed according to the rules, Yang Shiqi became even more depressed and soon left.

From then on, Wang Zhen became even more powerful and suppressed the other two Yangs in one fell swoop, and even cholera government affairs. He was eventually chopped by the emperor in Tumu Fort.

At that time, everyone knew that it was Wang Zhen’s idea to impeach Yang Shiqi, that he wanted to capture Yang Shiqi’s son and kill the people, and wanted to put him to death.

But the emperor is right, you will be arrested if you have a handle.

If you take good care of your family and don’t do anything illegal or illegal, there is nothing you can do if others want to attack.

Zhu Qizhen thoughtfully and said, "I was just fifteen years old at that time. The Yang Ji case was the first major case I personally inquired about. Do you know how Yang Qing's family did it?"

Yu Qian said in confusion: "After this case, Lord Yang blamed himself very much and thought he had a bad discipline, so he retired and resigned."

"What you see and hear is just appearance."

Zhu Qizhen suddenly sneered and said, "Yang Ji beat someone to death, and the miserable went to complain, but he didn't know that the Yang family had handled all the local prefectures and counties, and the case was suppressed."

A big question mark appeared on Yu Qian's face. Why is the emperor saying differently from what he knows?

"I dare to say, the Yang family bribed the government privately, and Lord Yang was probably unaware of it..."

"You're wrong again!"

Zhu Qizhen said lightly: "The local government received a note from Yang Shiqi, the chief minister of the cabinet, and then suppressed the case. The miserable had no way to complain. If it weren't for the secret report from the Jinyiwei, this case would never have been revealed."

The more Yu Qian listened, the more shocked he felt.

It turned out that the censor’s impeachment was not Wang Zhen’s idea, but the emperor’s personal instruction!
