First Minister of Ming Dynasty - Chapter 550
Zhang Ximeng was still planning military affairs, and when he received the news from Lao Zhu, he was surprised at first, and then overjoyed.
Although Chen Youding is not worried, there are still eight palaces and tens of thousands of troops. Once there is negligence, the army will go north and the sky will be empty, which is also very troublesome.
But they never expected that they would be in a mess on their own.
Moreover, the most hateful Pu family was used as a target, which is simply God helping me!
Zhang Ximeng thought for a while, and immediately put down the matter at hand and went to meet Zhu Yuanzhang.
“My lord, now it seems that charging Fujian should not be too fast. We should let them commit suicide and save us trouble.”
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, “We’ve already heard that the Pu family was originally a barbarian businessman and moved to Quanzhou, relying on the boat in his hand, whistling on the side, backing the Song Dynasty to Yuan, and in charge of the city ship division, splendidly, it has been a hundred years. During this time, they not only exploited the merchants, knocked the bones and sucked the marrow, but also gathered thousands of Semu people as Semu people, entrenched in Quanzhou, living and multiplying, and accumulated for a hundred years. Quanzhou is no different from the foreign land, how does this make it possible? , is it the Yuan Emperor of Dadu?”
Zhu Yuanzhang snorted angrily and said, “Pu family, we will definitely not let it go! When we find out, men are slaves, women are prostitutes, and they will never turn around! Apart from them, the Semu people who are attached to the Pu family can’t either. Let it go, we must strictly investigate the crime and never tolerate it!”
After speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang said: “Sir, it is also a good idea to let them commit suicide. It’s just a long delay, and innocent people will suffer disasters. We can’t bear it. Does Mr.
Zhang Ximeng hurriedly said: “My lord, the Semu people mainly live in cities. They are good at doing business, but not good at farming. Our soldiers and horses only need to boldly intersperse each city, leaving them in a situation of isolation and helplessness. Immediately mobilize the people of Bamin, Grant the land, and divide the land equally. Then the whales will eat it, and within a few months, this cancer will be eradicated, and the people of Quanzhou will be peaceful.”
Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a little while before nodding slightly.
Since the main force was heading north, the troops attacking Chen Youding could only be regarded as a partial division.
It is really difficult to really attack the city in a big way and be invincible.
If you just divide and surround, there is no doubt that it will reduce the pressure.
It just so happens that I can take the opportunity to observe the forces of the Pu family, until they are all exposed, and then kill them with one blow, cleanly and completely solve the hidden dangers.
This move is not unreasonable.
In fact, throughout the years, Zhang Ximeng has always advocated curing diseases and saving people, and was unwilling to kill people… But facing the Pu family, he had no choice.
They have done too many evil things in the past hundred years, not to mention that it is impossible for Daming to accept their surrender, even the Pu family themselves know that there is no way out.
In this case, it is better to take advantage of the present opportunity and solve it completely, so as not to leave future troubles.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Ximeng quickly reached an agreement.
“Sir, since Chen Youding is nothing to worry about, Zhu Ying also sent news not long ago that he is leading Yang Jing, Zhou Dexing and others to Guangxi… So it seems that all the land in the south has been returned to the hands of Daming, looking around the world, Only Dadu Yuan Court is still there, the opportunity to expedition Dadu has come!”
Zhang Ximeng pondered for a while, then nodded vigorously, “What the lord said is very true.
Zhu Yuanzhang took a deep breath and waved his fists, “Alright please! Join the Northern Expedition!”
Obviously, such a big thing, even if it is confirmed, there must be a big enough apprenticeship ceremony.
The last decisive battle in the Central Plains was too late to organize due to the urgency of time. Or to put it simply, there was some hesitation last time, and I was not fully sure.
And this time, it is determined to win, no one can stop Daming’s footsteps.
A grand apprenticeship ceremony was held at the military field outside Nanjing.
Zhang Ximeng was appointed as a supervisor and personally commanded the army.
In the first battle, Yanyun was restored, and the Yuan court was destroyed in the first battle.
Thanks to the recent propaganda work, Yingtian’s businessmen and people already know Wen Tianxiang and the shame of these hundreds of years.
Finally got revenge on Prime Minister Wen!
To wash away the shame and restore China.
People run and tell each other and keep saying good news.
Surprisingly, among this group of people, there are actually many Mongolians, and they are more excited and enthusiastic than ordinary people.
“This day has finally arrived! Dadu will finally be restored! Emperor Yuan Ting and I not only have national hatred, but also family hatred! This dazed ruler should have died a long time ago!”
Those who can talk like this, without a doubt, are Timur first.
Since the last time when Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, he invited them to attend the ceremony. Since then, the gap between the Mongolian people and the Han people has become smaller and smaller in Yingtian City.
After the two sides got acquainted with each other, they soon discovered that the gap between the big guys was not that big.
Like also the first Timur, relying on his own skills, he opened a veterinary clinic, established his own horse farm, treated livestock, sold cattle and horses, and used it to cultivate the fields.
Good work and hard work.
Even if he was a high-ranking official in Yuan Ting before, what could he do?
And in terms of actual effect, Timur’s damage to Dayuan is also first, I am afraid that it is still above the general generals. After all, whether it was sending 300,000 people in one breath at the beginning, or now he is actively helping to contact Yuan Tingguiwei and develop insiders. These actions are all digging the ancestral graves of the Yuan Dynasty.
By the way, Lao Zhu was able to figure out the struggle between the Yuan emperor and the crown prince, and guess what Chahan Timur thought, thanks to the matchmaking of the first Timur.
With this person here, he successfully helped Daming to place the eyeliner in the capital of Yuan Dynasty, and even in the palace, there were people from Lao Zhu.
In order to quickly destroy Dayuan, Timur also spared no effort.
Not long ago, he took out the money he had accumulated, bought Daming’s national debt, and also selected two hundred young men and prepared cattle, horses and vehicles.
As early as when Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, he had said that when the Northern Expedition to Dadu was over, he would definitely help out.
Now is the chance, don’t miss it!
Longevity treats me well, and finally made me wait until Dayuan’s fall!
“Great, let’s have a few more drinks!”
He also visited Timur first, and successfully gathered a large group of Mongolian noble stomachs.
The big guy actively contributed money and efforts to assist the Northern Expedition.
Although they are not many in number, they have indeed ignited the enthusiasm of the people.
Even the Mongolians have paid to help, we can’t be left behind!
What’s more, this time is our battle, to avenge Prime Minister Wen, how can we be left behind?
Therefore, Yingtian’s big and small businessmen all stood up and spared no effort to purchase government bonds to support the Northern Expedition.
It’s just that among the many merchants, the most surprising one was Suzhou, a textile workshop called Ladies, who took out 200,000 yuan to buy bonds. In addition, they also donated 500 pieces of silk.
This shot shocked the entire Suzhou city.
Good guy, these women are not only ruthless in shopping malls, but also in such matters!
Are you trying to kill us?
There was no way, so the merchants in Suzhou came forward one after another, and Kang gave up.
Because buying too brutally, once made the national debt not enough to sell.
Obviously, it is not just businessmen who are willing to support the Northern Expedition.
Just when the big guy was concerned about who gave out how much money, the troupe headed by Wu Datou, representing all corners of the world, donated a total of 35,000 pieces.
But they said that the money was used to make artillery.
Because they heard that it takes more than 3,000 guns to build a single artillery piece. They donated this money in the hope that the imperial court would have ten more artillery pieces, and then they would blow up Dadu and destroy the Yuan court!
The actors have always been inferior, only the Ming Dynasty gave them face and gave them a chance to be born again.
Now they are looking forward to the prosperity of Daming, and quickly destroy the Yuan court, clean and without any future troubles.
In addition, Wu Datou selected another 500 artists of various kinds and asked them to go north with the army, perform shows for the soldiers of the Northern Expedition, and soothe their emotions.
In order to fight for this place, two or three thousand artists came forward to sign up, and even the brothers and sisters fell out in order to grab the place.
Women, artists, and more and more people are willing to stand up and support the Northern Expedition.
The Ming Dynasty is really popular!
Just when the big guy thought it was about the same, another donation was sent to Yingtian.
This is Jingzhou and other places, 3,000 raw hides sent by the people of the Miao tribe, as well as horns, tendons, raw lacquer, pig bristles, etc., which are fully loaded with five ships to supply military supplies, support the court, and destroy the rebellion. Yuan!
Business people and people, all kinds of help, gathered in Yingtian.
At this moment, Daming is already full of blood and pride, waiting for only one exit.
And this exit is the ceremony of the Northern Expedition.
As the protagonist this time, Zhang Ximeng couldn’t be calm… The last time such a big scene was when Old Zhu ascended the throne. But the problem is that Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, which belongs to Lao Zhu, Zhang Ximeng only needs to mobilize the arrangement.
But this time, he was the commander-in-chief of the three armies, the man who was leading the troops into Dadu!
There was no way, Zhang Ximeng also changed into a military uniform, wearing armor, and stepped on the sword.
Jiang Nan looked at Zhang Ximeng carefully for a long time, and couldn’t help laughing: “It turns out that the master is so heroic when he wears a military uniform!”
Zhang Ximeng smiled and said, “You don’t know how handsome your man is! Do you still need to be suspicious?”
Jiang Nan’s face turned slightly red~www.mtlnovel.com~ and then he shook his head, “No, sir, you are too thin, your shoulders and waist must be wrapped in silk, so that you look mighty and majestic, you are a general in command of the army. .”
While speaking, Jiang Nan turned around and ran out, and came back shortly after, holding the silk and satin that Zhu Yuanzhang gave to Zhang Shuning in his arms, Jiang Nan was not polite, and wrapped it with Zhang Ximeng.
In a quarter of an hour, Jiang Nan looked at her husband who was a full circle, and couldn’t help but stretch out his thumb.
“Okay, it can definitely suppress the scene!”
Zhang Ximeng sweated on his forehead, “Why do I feel like I’ve become a zongzi!”
“Don’t talk nonsense, let’s go! Don’t delay the auspicious time.”
In this way, Zhang Ximeng was pushed out, mounted on a steed, and two hundred cavalrymen opened the way and went straight to the school grounds to participate in the most grand expedition ceremony in history!
