Chapter 223 Stabilize again!

I have two weeks to take the exam, and continue to study hard. After listening to the elaborate lectures, intensive training, my mind is getting bigger!

..................................... Divider.......................................................................................................

Liu Lishun was a role model, and so was Wen Anzhi, including Wei Guangwei, governors of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and Ni Wenhuan, as well as Xia Zhongshi, who was promoted by merchant Jian.

The generals who were promoted quickly were even more numerous. Most of the generals on the Nine-sided sides were from martial arts or promoted and reused by the emperor himself.

From literature to martial arts, more and more civil officials and military officials have gathered around the emperor.

Of course, many of them are real and knowledgeable, but some of them are just obedient and implement the court policies and emperor's decrees without fail, and they will be promoted.

The power of role models is infinite, and the path to promotion is not that difficult. This naturally attracted more people's attention and attracted more people to work hard to show themselves and move closer to the emperor.

To explain this situation in the simplest terms, it is "one year of emperor and another year of minister", or "the superior has something to like, the subordinate must do it."

What kind of ministers the emperor likes will never be lacking in all dynasties. Whether it is loyal ministers or treacherous; whether it is frank advice or flattery.

If you want to get involved in the officialdom, you must be clear about the emperor's preferences and understand the emperor's thoughts. Otherwise, you will soon be an official and will be kicked out sooner or later.

In fact, this has nothing to do with loyalty and treason, nor does it have integrity or treason. It is good for loyal and upright ministers, but which treason is not outstanding in talent?

In Zhu Youxiao's view, it is more appropriate for him to be able to do the job he has assigned to, not violate national laws, and to flatter the ministers who are flattering.

For example, some ministers who claim to be righteous, speak benevolence, righteousness and morality, and often criticize them directly, will not be of great use if they cannot do a good job.

The most obvious example is the Donglin Party officials in history. They cannot alleviate finances internally and do a good job in people's livelihood, and cannot defeat Jiannu and protect the country's security, but they will only fight against the emperor with their necks.

What is the establishment of a prince and the three major cases? I stared at the royal family every day to find faults. In this way, I invited the name of Zhongzhi, but it was useless.

Do you need to comment on the emperor’s family affairs? You always exaggerate and quote the classics at any time. If you have time, you will do some serious business.

Anyway, Zhu Youxiao has made up his mind to make up his own family affairs, and whoever cares about him will be anxious.

As for family affairs, the royal family is naturally the most important thing. Yuer gave birth to two girls, but Concubine Wang Liang and the queen's belly became bigger and bigger.

Zhu Youxiao remembers that in history, Queen Zhang Yan seemed to have given birth to a boy, and of course she cannot be tampered with now.

Thinking of the queen, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but pursed his lips, showed a smile, and looked up and ordered: "Go to Kunning Palace at noon, tell the imperial kitchen, and send the food there."

Zhang Yan and Concubine Wang Liang care more about the children in their stomachs than the emperor. In the palace, it is almost unchanging to have a mother's noble son. Even if she has a princess, it is much better than nothing.

Zhu Youxiao made a temporary decision and did not notify him in advance, so as not to prevent Zhang Yan from taking the bustling trip. He happened to have lunch in Kunning Palace, and then hugged the plump queen and took a nap. He kissed and touched it and felt so happy.

But things in the world always love unexpected things, and God often does good things that disturb people.

Before Zhu Youxiao got up, Wang Tigan hurried in and presented a secret box. If it was a normal memorial, Zhu Youxiao could drag it, but when he saw that it was from Xiong Tingbi in Liaodong, he did not dare to delay it.

After checking the seal, Zhu Youxiao opened the secret song and started to read it carefully.

I have explained before that although there are still several months to prepare for the winter and spring counterattack next year, the attack on Jiannu cannot be stopped, so that he will not be able to live in peace and continuously consume Jiannu's savings and strength.

However, Xiong Tingbi's combat plan exceeded the scale of harassment set by the emperor, which made Zhu Youxiao frown slightly. After thinking for a while, he got up and went to the sand table at the corner of the hall, concentrating on thinking.

According to the number of dispatches by the Lighting Army, it is not too risky to directly advance to Haicheng River and even besiege Haizhou Guards.

As Xiong Tingbi analyzed and judged, it is unlikely that Jiannu would send too many troops to fight against the river, which is a taboo for military strategists. Therefore, the Ming army should be able to move steadily and advance to Haicheng River.

It is also feasible to attack Haizhou Acropolis based on the artillery owned by the Ming army.

What's more, in addition to the Red Barbarian Cannons, the Ming army also had other means of destroying the city, such as the tunnels and external blasting techniques mastered after the emperor's guidance, martial arts experiments.

But the Ming army launched too early, which was Zhu Youxiao's feeling. Once the battle started, it was not something that could be taken away just by wanting it. Jiannu just passively guarded Liao Chen and allowed the Ming army to tighten the noose?

If Jiannu made a big move, the power to support the Ming army group in southern Liaoning would be very limited.

First, the flying cavalry in the Beijing camp will not be opened after the autumn begins. Second, the Mongolian tribes and the naturalized flying cavalry camp are also preparing to be dispatched at that time. The last point is that the transportation and reserve of ammunition and medicine resources have not been completed.

These are two forces that cannot be ignored, and can even be said to be the key to decisive victory. They can not only firmly restrain Jiannu's troops, but also wait for an opportunity to attack and win.

The ammunition and drug resources are the reason why Zhu Youxiao did not want to fight a big battle. If it was consumed at high intensity, it would not last long, and he felt that it was a big start and a bad start.

But Xiong Tingbi had formulated a combat plan and had mobilized his troops, which of course was his power. It was escalated into a battle, or even a battle, which was probably within his expectations.

Zhu Youxiao smiled bitterly. He was only responsible for the strategic and logistical arrangements for Liaodong operations, and he rarely intervened in specific commands.

Now, not only Xiong Tingbi, but also Mao Wenlong have shown a strong desire to fight, which has made the emperor, who has always been as stable as an old dog, feel very embarrassed.

It is not impossible to directly reject it, but it is not good. Zhu Youxiao took this into consideration, and probably Xiong Tingbi and Mao Wenlong also thought of it.

It is a good thing to seek battle and win, and Zhu Youxiao actually thinks this change is gratifying. Although signs have already appeared, there are still not many people who dare to fight the battle level.

Especially Xiong Tingbi, who is second only to the emperor in terms of calmness. Well, Zhu Youxiao thinks so. Even the old Xiong is going to be strong. Can you be the emperor and pour cold water on people?

After thinking about it, Zhu Youxiao decided to agree to Lao Xiong's combat plan. It would be time to send it back to the secret order.

But agreeing is agreement, Zhu Youxiao thinks he should be stable. He has been stable for several years, not a few months away.

Advance to Haicheng River and broaden it; attack Haizhou Acropolis, broaden it. But we must be prepared to abandon Haizhou Acropolis, use Haicheng River as the defense line, and confront Jiannu.

If you fight Jiannu for a long time under the Haicheng River through Haizhou Acropolis, transportation of materials will be a difficult task and the risk of fighting against the water is also very high.

After all, the Ming army navy could not directly enter Haicheng River. If it was time-consuming and labor-intensive to build ships on the spot, it would be unsafe.
