"Bang!!!"
In the Golden Palace, Emperor Yongzheng threw a memorial to the civil and military officials in anger, asking:"Look!"
"News sent from Liaodong in an expedited manner"
"The Jurchen Tatars mobilized 300,000 troops to attack Liaozhen"
"There were 100,000 Mongolian cavalrymen galloping their horses in the direction of Datong Town."
"What do they want to do? Do they want to siege our Dajing like they did decades ago?"
"What do all the civil and military officials in the court and the border generals do for a living? They only know when the enemy comes to their doorsteps."
"Do you think you will be anxious only if I, the emperor, am hanged on Coal Hill?"
Boom!
As soon as the words fell, the faces of all the civil and military officials suddenly changed, and they all bowed their heads and said in a solemn voice:"Your Majesty!"
Using Coal Hill as the topic, isn't it obvious that he is linking himself with the former Ming Emperor Chongzhen? If Emperor Yongping's words were to spread, the officials of Dajing would be criticized by the people of the world and called treacherous villains.
"I am not in the mood to argue with you about right and wrong, or about the past and present."
"In one sentence, how to deal with the enemy at the gate?" Looking down at his ministers, Emperor Yongping's eyes were full of sternness.
For a long time, the Later Jin and Mongolia have been the biggest troubles for Dajing, and the establishment of the Nine Border Towns is to defend against these foreign invaders.
But since the end of the Yuancong War, the Jurchen Tartars and the Mongolian Tartars have stopped their attacks, and there has never been such a large-scale invasion.
It can be seen that this time, they came to attack with full confidence, and there is no telling how many cards they have.
As the third monarch of the Dajing Dynasty, the only monarch who did not have military merits, he was always worried about the throne being taken away.
Now facing this situation, if he loses an inch of land, the people of the world will surely curse him.
How can he not be worried?
"His Majesty"
"I request that the Beijing army be mobilized to support Datong and Liaodong."
""Choose a good general to lead the reinforcements."
The first civil official on the left, an elegant old man wearing a scarlet official uniform with a crane patch, said.
This man was Zhang Tingyu, a veteran of two dynasties, the Minister of Personnel, and the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion.
"I second the motion!"
"I second the motion!"
"........."
A number of civil officials and military officers echoed
"According to what Zhang Ge Lao said, are there any officials here who are willing to lead troops to Datong and Liaodong to provide support?"
Then Emperor Yongping asked a question, and the Jinluan Palace fell into silence again.
"His Majesty!"
"I am willing to go!"
Suddenly, two generals in noble uniforms emerged from the crowd. They were Niu Jizong, the grandson of Duke Zhenguo Niu Qing and the current first-class baron, and Zheng Keshuang, the current first-class baron.
Almost everyone's eyes were focused on the two of them. They were the leaders of the founding nobles and the Yuancong nobles.
Everyone knew that war was both dangerous and an opportunity. The Yuancong Campaign was so difficult, but it gave birth to a lineage of Yuancong nobles that was comparable to the founding nobles. The scale of this Yongping Campaign was no less than that of the past. Who could look at it calmly?
Therefore, whether it was the founding nobles or the Yuancong nobles, they all wanted to seize this opportunity.
"What does the Ministry of War think?"
Emperor Yongping looked deep in his eyes and threw the ball to Wei Dongting, the Minister of War and the Grand Secretary of the Dongge
‘"Shua!!!"
The generals on the right all stared at the thin figure in the crowd.
"His Majesty!"
"I think the Jurchens and Mongols are coming in force, and neither should be underestimated."
"Of the two, we must first understand the priorities."
Wei Dongting was very shrewd and said slowly:"The Khalkha tribe's 100,000 cavalry are as swift as the wind. If Datong City is captured, they will march straight in, and the Three Jins and Guanzhong will be in danger."
"Liaozhen has the Ningjin defense line. Even if it is lost, there is still Shanhaiguan. The advance of 300,000 Jurchens will inevitably be slow."
"Therefore, we must first mobilize heavy troops to defeat the enemy along the Datong route and guard against the Mongolian tribes taking advantage of the situation."
"As for Liaozhen, there is no need to withdraw troops from Beijing. The troops of Jizhen are closer and have been stationed on the border for many years, so they are stronger."
All of a sudden, all the civil and military officials present understood his meaning. First, attack Mongolia, then stop the Later Jin.
It must be said that this strategy is more in line with the current situation of Dajing.
"How many reinforcements do you think Datong needs?"
Emperor Yongping continued to ask.
"One hundred thousand Mongolian cavalry, at least two hundred thousand brave and skilled soldiers are needed to resist them."
Wei Dongting blurted out without thinking.
"The 12th Battalion is the most powerful in Beijing."
"The imperial decree: First-class Earl Zheng Keshuang is courageous and resolute, and strives to be the first for the country. He is appointed General Pingbei and is in charge of 12 regiments. He will set out immediately to Datong."
"First-class Bo Niu Jizong was appointed as the General of the Liao Camp, in charge of the troops of the Jingying, Jizhen, and Liaozhen, and sat in the central army, supervising the battle on the Ningjin front. First-class son Liu Fang was appointed as the vanguard general, and first-class son Hou Xiaokang was appointed as the rear guard general........"
As the dull voice rang out in the Golden Palace, Emperor Yongping issued several imperial edicts in succession.
""I obey your order!"
The founding nobles accepted the imperial edict with great joy. The Yuancong nobles were indignant, but they could do nothing about it.
You know, the Pingbei General was only a first-rank official and had no power to control the local military garrisons, while the Zheng Liao General was a first-rank official who controlled two garrisons and commanded the Beijing Camp. The difference between the two was not small.
"If you have no important business, please adjourn the court!"
Looking around at the civil and military officials, Emperor Yongping raised his hand.
""I accept your order!"
After hearing this, all the civil and military officials left the Jinluan Palace one by one, leaving only the Qianqing Palace's internal minister Su Peisheng waiting on the side.
"Master Wu"
"I've given them the chance."
"What should we do if they can't catch him?"
With a dim gaze, Emperor Yongping's voice was emotionless.
In the corner, Wu Sidao, dressed in black, turned his wheelchair and slowly appeared in the hall, saying,"Your Majesty"
"Even if the founding nobles are corrupt, there are always a few useful people, so they are not just a pool of mud."
"There are many talented people among the commanders of the Nine Border Towns. This battle is the time to temper and forge steel."
"At that time, Your Majesty can recruit and support some new people"
"Good, that's great!"
With a slight nod, Emperor Yongping finally felt relieved.
The two of them skipped the Dragon Guards at the same time. In their eyes, or in Beijing and even in Dajing, everyone only regarded Jia Xuan as a child. No one thought that this sixteen-year-old boy could train an unparalleled strong army in just a few months.
It was precisely because of their current neglect that the Dragon Guards made an unparalleled contribution, and Jia Xuan's name was able to shake the country!
