Ye Chunqiu's face became more and more serious when he said that.

Then, Ye Chunqiu said in a deep voice: "Inside the factory guards, someone should have had an affair with Batu Monk Khan. Nabatu Monk Khan had probably learned that anyone around him was the Ming Dynasty's work. He did not show his voice and must have deliberately put smoke bombs on the factory guards' work around him, and then he turned around to attack Tongliao."

After Ye Chunqiu said that, everyone's expressions changed.

There are people from Batumonk inside the factory guards, so all the details of Batumonk Khan's identities were leaked?

Ye Chunqiu stared at Liu Jin whose face turned pale and said, "Dare you ask Eunuch Liu, how many people can be contacted in the factory guards who have deployed all Batumonk?"

When Ye Chunqiu said that someone in the factory had an affair with Batumonk Khan, Liu Jin was sweating profusely. If this were the case, wouldn’t he meant he was dereliction of duty?

Of course he knew that Ye Chunqiu was just talking about the matter and did not mean to target him, but he still couldn't help but be afraid. After thinking about it, he said in a terrifying manner: "There are dozens of people, at least seven or eight people are informed. If others want to know, they will definitely know."

On the surface, there are dozens of people, but anyone understands that these people are definitely factory guards or senior figures in the palace. Only such people can know so thoroughly.

Ye Chunqiu took a deep breath before looking at Zhu Houzhao and said, "Then, I think that at the moment, the first thing to do is to recall all the fine works around Batu Monk Khan, without leaving any of them. Now Batu Monk Khan is just setting off smoke bombs. Once he feels that the Ming Dynasty may know that all the identities of the fine works are exposed, he will inevitably attack these people. These people have traveled thousands of miles away from their hometowns and left their heads on their belts, so that they can live and die for me, the Ming Dynasty. If they die in the desert, wouldn't it be a pity that it would be sad? Please call these people back to the capital immediately. Don't hesitate. They can no longer spy on anything, but are in danger of their lives."

"In addition, please check the factory guards and check who is involved in the affair with Batumonk, and you must not let such a traitor be careless."

After hearing this, Zhu Houzhao was angry at the person who had an affair with foreign enemies, but he also made a quick decision: "You are right. I only think of Tongliao, but I didn't expect this level. Liu Jin, have you heard it? Let's do it now."

Liu Jin hurriedly said, "I have died."

Zhu Houzhao said: "Now is not the time for you to die, so go and do it quickly."

Liu Jin then breathed a sigh of relief. He was a eunuch on his pen, but he also had an expert factory. Now that he had such a big negligence, he was still a little nervous. Who knows if His Majesty thinks that he is not good at doing things and removes his duties as an eunuch in the hands of his expert factory?

Since that's the case, we have to make up for it immediately.

Immediately, he hurriedly quit.

Zhu Houzhao sat down and looked at Ye Chunqiu with a calm expression: "I can't understand why Batumonk took Tongliao, and Tongliao is the gateway to Liaodong. Could it be that he wants to take Liaodong first?"

As soon as Zhu Houzhao said this, he fell silent in the warm room.

No one can guess Batumonk's thoughts at the moment. This person is full of tricks, but he must not be underestimated.

Ye Chunqiu pondered: "Your Majesty, I think Batumonk will not seize Liaodong. Although Batumonk is strong, his national strength is far from comparable to my Ming Dynasty. All he can do is to fight quickly. Otherwise, if the war continues to drag on, my Ming Dynasty will continue to reinforce Liaodong, and the towns in Liaodong will all seize the city and defend the city, strengthening the walls and clearing the fields. The longer the time delays, the more unfavorable it will be for him."

"He should have just wanted to make a fake move. It was Liaodong, but in fact he wanted to enter the pass. He wanted to win in one battle. The only way was to break the pass. As long as he entered the pass, my Ming Dynasty would be safe and I would be threatened. Just like the Tumu Fort Incident, the country's foundation has been shaken since then."

At this time, Yang Yiqing said: "The old minister also thought what the Duke Zhenguo said makes sense."

In fact, Ye Chunqiu's thoughts coincide with Yang Yiqing's. However, Ye Chunqiu can say these words, but Yang Yiqing cannot take the initiative to say them, because once the matter is defined as a feint, it means that the court does not have to worry about Liaodong for the time being, but strengthens the defense of Xuanfu and Shanhaiguan on the front line. But if the target is Liaodong, once the prediction is wrong, it will take on the huge relationship of losing Liaodong.

Yang Yiqing could not bear this huge consequence, so he could only choose to remain silent.

Ye Chunqiu ignored these things because he was the Duke of Zhenguo and his Majesty's brother, so he dared to say that he could bear the consequences.

Zhu Houzhao said: "I also think something is strange. Chunqiu is right. This is indeed a very likely feint. But the question is, what should the court do next? Batumonk has threatened Jinzhou. Would he ignore him?"

Ye Chunqiu said: "Batumuk's target is either the capital or the Qinglong. If the battle is in Qinglong, it depends on the Zhenguo New Army. The Zhenguo New Army now has 7,000 troops stationed there, with sufficient soldiers and food. Once something happens, the court can reinforce from the pass at any time. According to my expectations, Batuumuk may not move Qinglong. However, the pass of our Ming Dynasty is long, and it is difficult to guarantee that Batuumuk will not take risks and take the capital directly. This... is the most terrifying thing. This person has always used the method of making a name for himself to attack the east and the west, so he must be careful."

Zhu Houzhao suddenly showed a look of hesitation and said, "Then, let's strengthen the guards everywhere for the time being, let's talk about it." As he said, he glanced at everyone and then said, "Thank you, masters, you have worked hard, let's take your leave first. In the afternoon, I will discuss it with you."

He wanted to drive away a few bachelors, obviously he had something to say to Ye Chunqiu in private.

So Wang Hua and others left, while Ye Chunqiu stayed at Zhu Houzhao's instructions.

As soon as they left, Zhu Houzhao suddenly slapped the table and said, "Chunqiu, do you still remember the strategy you proposed to me at the beginning?"

When Ye Chunqiu heard this, he immediately understood something.

Uh, this guy... wants to go crazy again.

The so-called one time and another time. The reason why Ye Chunqiu proposed the so-called strategy was actually essentially just a paper talk.

Speaking of military talk on paper, the advantage is that it can ignore many difficulties that may arise in reality, and also ignore many variables that appear in the real battlefield. However, in the actual military use process, the plan will never catch up with changes, because no one can predict what will happen tomorrow, what weather tomorrow will be, and whether your reinforcements can arrive as scheduled.

But Your Majesty, now is not the time to talk about war on paper! (To be continued., Your support is my greatest motivation.) 17-03-14 10:16:04
