The Chinese New Year has always been highly valued by the world, and people hope that the whole family can reunite during this festival.
Zhu Gaoxu remembers the scenes in later generations. When the Chinese New Year comes, countless people travel thousands of miles to go home, and all the roads are congested; from ancient times to the present, it seems that there has been no change.
However, on New Year's Eve, Zhu Gaoxu led more than 60,000 vanguards of the mainland division and all the navy warships, and went the other way, leaving his family and embarked on the journey!
Zhu Gaoxu was somewhat reluctant to leave on such days; but in comparison, he chose real benefits.
Perhaps the situation would be better for him if he sent troops one day earlier.
Zhu Gaoxu stood on the wooden building at the stern of a warship, looking at the countless warships on the river and the grand scenes on the water, he seemed to feel deeply moved for a moment.
It was cloudy and the northwest wind was blowing in the air, and the flags that said the punishment of crimes and rebellion were crackling on the warship.
Because of the wind direction problems this time, hundreds of warships of the navy almost did not raise sails; otherwise the scene would be even more spectacular!
The Xiangjiang River flows northward into the river, and the fleet sails against the wind in this section of the Xiangjiang River; but as long as it enters the river, it can raise sails and speed up its navigation.
However, the entire water route of the vanguard of the Han Wangjun was along the Xiangjiang River and the Dajiang River.The warships can travel day and night, and Zhu Gaoxu and others estimated that they could arrive in Zhili area in more than ten days at most!
The Ming Dynasty regarded Nanjing as its capital and was located in the lower reaches of the river.
The river is a double-edged sword, both a barrier of heaven and a most convenient passage for the enemy.
As long as the army that threatens the capital occupy the middle and upper reaches of the river and gains a water advantage, the danger of the capital will expand infinitely!
After the Battle of Huguang, the Han Wang Army was still far away from the capital and two or three thousand miles away; at this time, it seemed to be close to each other.
After all, if the army marched by land, it would not even be able to get out of the territory of a governor for more than ten days, let alone the war might be necessary.
……
On New Year's Eve, it is snowing in Datong Prefecture.The world is covered with white space, as if everything is covered under the snow.
In recent months, border troubles have been constantly occurring, and grassland tribes have often plundered border areas.According to the system established during the Hongwu period, each side would have more close contact with the Dai Wang who guarded Datong Prefecture.
Zhu Gui, the King of Dai, was in his thirties and was in his prime.
Until yesterday, he received secret letters from the King of Qin in Guanzhong and the King of Jin from Taiyuan Prefecture; after King Gu was arrested into the capital, the two kings were willing to follow the emperor's uncle Zhu Gui as the leader and make an appointment to raise an army!
Among them, King Zhu Jicheng, the King of Jin, was the most active and had long been persuading Zhu Gui to uprising.
Because King Jin has been impeached by people in his own palace many times and secretly sued him for being dissatisfied with King Yàn, King Jin was very worried that the throne would be lost.
In recent days, Zhu Gui has received a New Year gift list sent by the court, including the generous rewards from the emperor.Zhu Gui is now even more hesitant than a few months ago.
He secretly summoned his confidant adviser to ask: King Gu was arrested in Changsha Prefecture. According to your speculation, will the conspiracy of the kings have been leaked?
The strategist immediately replied: I thought it was very likely that the kings had conspired for too long, and news leaked from the south!
After hearing this, Zhu Gui remained silent and lowered his head and thought hard.
Seeing this, the strategist talked freely: In the current situation, countless official troops were lost and the power of the court was declining, so he should be unable to look north; now he sent a generous reward, which is why he believed was the reason.
It would be easier for the prince to raise an army at this time!After raising an army to occupy Datong Prefecture, the prince might still get some support from the border army and quickly expand his power outward so as not to fall into a situation of trapping one place.
Moreover, the humble position has always been recognized. Since the early years of Jianwen, the monarchs and ministers of the court have changed their national policies and are no longer willing to guard the important places!
And such changes are irreversible.
No matter who becomes the emperor, the monarch and ministers of the court will definitely try their best to reduce the vassal states.
Jianwen took drastic measures to reduce the vassals and died, and his country was destroyed.
When Emperor Taizong first started his rebellion, he opposed the reduction of the vassals and replaced it with force; however, when Emperor Taizong ascended the throne and became the emperor, he immediately changed his mind and began to reduce the vassals!
However, in order to avoid Emperor Jianwen's mistakes, Emperor Taizong had to be much more secretive.
He wanted to first reduce the military power of the vassal kings, then divide and govern them, and defeat them one by one.
When the prince conspired with the kings, the kings had to compete for the position of the primary and secondary, because of such long-term concerns.The kings must also believe that even if everyone succeeds in the uprising, the new emperor will still deal with them.
Zhu Gui agreed with the counselor's statement and nodded slightly at this time.He also felt that the reduction of the vassal states was the general trend, and the kings would end sooner or later!
But he did not dare to completely believe the advice of his subordinates.
The civil and military officials who participated in the plot to raise an army in the royal palace all advised Zhu Gui to raise an army as soon as possible; those people also knew that once the matter was exposed, it would be exposed sooner or later, and they would all die!
Most people only think about themselves, how many people really think about the prince?
The strategist continued: Taking advantage of the difficulty of the court in dealing with the north, the kings joined forces to conquer the city and seize the land as soon as possible, and occupying all the territory in Jiangbei in the future is not impossible...
Zhu Gui interrupted the counselor and suddenly spoke: Our great enemy is not the court, but the King of Han.
The strategist was stunned for a moment.
Zhu Gui glanced at him and said calmly: In the battle of Huguang, it is said that the Han King defeated the elite 700,000 officers in just half an hour.
The strategist couldn't speak for a while, and of course he had heard such news.
Zhu Gui said in a deep voice: Is such a record too terrible?He sighed and said: Judging from the affairs of King Shu and King Jingjiang, the King of Han may at least leave us a way out and some wealth?
After Zhu Gui said that, he got up and walked over and opened the door. He looked at the snow scene outside, looking thoughtful.
It usually takes a long time to do something important, and people are bound to think about it repeatedly every day.The pros and cons and opportunities are the pros and cons of it, as long as you are clear-headed, you can probably figure it out.
……
Zhu Gaosui, the King of Zhao who is also in the north, has been feeling very uncomfortable recently.
Whenever the eunuch Huang Yan had the chance, he would secretly lobby King Zhao and urge King Zhao to deploy a rebellion as soon as possible!
Huang Yan knew his situation very well.He was involved in treason and was placed in the palace with the eunuch Yang Qing, but those things must not be so let go; the court did not touch him for the sake of King Zhao.
At this time, the monarch and ministers of the court should not want to see something elsewhere; therefore, the emperor sent people to Beiping City several times to reward and appease, and of course the purpose was to stabilize King Zhao!
Huang Yan was the most trusted eunuch around King Zhao, so of course he could not be touched easily.
But what after the war is over?
The current situation is gradually becoming clear, and the King of Han is very likely to win!
Huang Yan doesn’t have to worry about being suspected of rebellion and being liquidated by the court. What he is worried about is the eunuchs in the palace who have made great resentment in life and death!
Although Zheng He was dead, his gangsters were still there.
After thinking hard, Huang Yan felt that his life was on the side of the Han Palace.
The King of Han once sent his confidant eunuch Cao Fu to persuade King Zhao to raise an army. As long as Huang Yan facilitated this matter, he would be a great contribution to the King of Han. At the same time, Huang Yan could also take advantage of the situation to deepen his friendship with the eunuch Cao Fu.
In this way, he could not only save his life, but also rely on the people of the Han Palace to kill all the remaining gangs of Zheng He to eliminate future troubles!
Huang Yan was wearing a fur coat and thought about things while walking outside a side hall.He shrank his neck and put his hands in his sleeves to wait.
After a long time, the chief secretary Gu Sheng came out from inside.Huang Yan held the whisk and greeted him, and Gu Sheng also politely replied: Please, please, Mr. Huang, it’s cold recently.
Yes not?Huang Yan said kindly, Gu Changshi walked slowly.
Huang Yan lifted the thick cloth curtain hanging at the door and walked into the side hall.It was burned with smokeless charcoal inside, which was very warm.He took off his fur coat first, carried the clothes forward to greet King Zhao.
King Zhao nodded and got it right, and he didn't even look at Huang Yan at all. He seemed to be thinking about something.
Huang Yan stood beside him, without saying a word.
After waiting for a long time, Zhu Gaosui turned to look at Huang Yan.
Although Huang Yan had been very sensible and did not speak out just now, he was paying attention to the prince's every move; then he immediately stepped forward and bowed and said: Prince, I have to persuade you, the time for the rebellion is so good!After the Huguang War, I heard that the official documents of the capital were not very effective in Peking.As long as you raise an army and take the banner of the King of Han, civil and military officials in Peking will echo...
Zhu Gaosui frowned and said: I am already a prince. What are the benefits of starting a war under the banner of my second brother?
Huang Yan said in a deep voice: If the King of Han ascends the throne in the future, he will become closer and closer to the prince.
Zhu Gaosui made a strange expression, with a weak expression.
Huang Yan continued: The situation is settled now, and it is easier for the prince to raise an army. Even if something goes wrong, the prince will not do anything to his brothers. The King of Han will soon be able to rescue the prince, and he will praise you very much.This is a great achievement to the door...
Unexpectedly, Zhu Gaosui shook his head and said: My second brother is not as simple as you think! He is so capable, and people are privately rumored that the battle between Huguang will be fought. The second brother defeated the main force of the official army in half an hour! What can I help him with the rebellion?
Zhu Gaoshu paused and whispered: Recruiting a war can only make my second brother feel that I am quite brave!
Huang Yan was stunned, with a confused look on his face and said: No matter whether the prince can help or not, once you raise your army, your heart will be on the side of the King of Han.
Zhu Gaosui sneered: He was originally a real brother; my elder brother is still suspicious of me. Didn’t you say just now that you can’t touch my life? If I don’t do anything, my second brother will feel that I have neither courage nor ability, so I won’t have to be too wary of me in the future.
When Huang Yan heard this, he was speechless and could not think of words to persuade King Zhao.
Zhu Gaosui said calmly: Imperial brothers, is it important to have that heart?Our father is the emperor, who dares to say that he never had the heart (inheriting the throne)?Whether or not you have strength and ability is the most important thing.
Zhu Gaoxu remembers the scenes in later generations. When the Chinese New Year comes, countless people travel thousands of miles to go home, and all the roads are congested; from ancient times to the present, it seems that there has been no change.
However, on New Year's Eve, Zhu Gaoxu led more than 60,000 vanguards of the mainland division and all the navy warships, and went the other way, leaving his family and embarked on the journey!
