In mid-October, the city of Peiping was extremely dry and cold.Between the hard hip-top houses with narrow eaves, only fallen leaves floated, and no green leaves were seen, and there was a bleak atmosphere.
Zhu Gaosui, the King of Zhao in Beiping City, was at this time like the scene at the turn of autumn and winter, both desolate and messy.
Zhu Gaosui was in a side hall, his face full of depression and worried.He sat in the chair for a while, stood up and walked around again, feeling very anxious.
Chief Gu Sheng is reporting on the military situation in Mongolia.
Because when Zhu Gaosui was granted the title of King of Zhao, the late emperor issued an imperial edict: the governor of Peking must report to King of Zhao first before the decision can be made.
Therefore, the people from the Zhao royal palace have learned a lot from the government; this is also the reason why Zhu Gaosui is extremely upset.
Gu Sheng kept talking, Zhu Gaosui listened very seriously, but so far, he had not even fully understood the forces on the grassland!After the Tatars abolished the Great Yuan Kingdom, there were too many tribes.
Zhu Gaosui frowned and asked: Are Mahamu and Arutai Tatars or Tissus people?
Gu Sheng said: When I replied to the prince, Mahamu was a Wassai man, and Arutai was the leader of the Tatars and Asute tribe.
Zhu Gaosui said: Are the thorns and the Tatars attacking each other?
Gu Sheng bowed and said: According to the secret report of the Tatars bought by the Dusi of the Peking, the Tatars and the Wats were making peace and truce. They wanted to act according to the opportunity and were preparing to go south across the east and west sides to rob the border areas of the Ming Dynasty together!
He paused and said: Those tribes learned that there was a great war in the Ming Dynasty and fighting for the throne, and thought that the government army would transfer troops, so they had an opportunity to take advantage of it.In addition, the request of the Wassarman to ask for weapons last year may have caused the dissatisfaction of the Wassarman Mahamu.
The Tatars used to claim to be descendants of the Yuan Dynasty, and after the abolition of the Yuan Dynasty and founding the country, they were named Mongolia; their banner was very famous, so they have always been regarded as the biggest hidden danger by the Ming court.
Because the Watshu people Mahamu were dissatisfied with the Tatars, they fought many times. So the Watshu people believed that they had made contributions to the Ming Dynasty and asked for weapons and armor many times.
However, today I heard the suggestions of Ru Yi and others from the Minister of War, and believed that the strength of the Watanabe was increasing, and that the assistance of its weapons was a disaster for raising tigers. Therefore, last year, he refused to request and stopped giving weapons.
Gu Sheng paused for a while, and then whispered: What happened last year, today may also mean to be on guard against you.
Zhu Gaosui walked around and suddenly stopped and asked: That Benyashiri Han is a Tatar. So, is he in the same group as Arutai?
That's right.Gu Sheng said that Benyashiri Khan was a Mongolian Khan of the Tatars, but his strength was not strong; he became a Khan because many tribes recommended and supported him, and the largest Tatar force was the Arutai tribe.
After hearing this, Zhu Gaosui gradually understood something. He returned to the throne and sat down, saying: The people from the Uryanha tribe helped us fight the "Jingnan Battle". Are they our own people?
Gu Sheng shook his head and said: Prince Mingjian, the tribe on the grassland cannot be our own people of the Ming people!The Urianha tribes once surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, but now they were fiercely fighting and horses; the Mongols who bought them told the Beiping Dusi that some tribes in Urianha were preparing to pretend to be Tatars and rob with them!
Damn it!Zhu Gaoshui frowned and cursed.He had just planned to send envoys to instigate the Urianha tribes to help him guard the north.
Gu Sheng walked to the throne and bowed his head and whispered: The officials in the capital are eye-catching and hearing. According to secret reports from the capital, several vassal kings in the north are in private contact, as if they want to unite to rebel!
Zhu Gaoshu stared at him and said: Is he going to rebel now?
Gu Sheng said: The prince knows that there must be the eyes and ears of the Jinyiwei and treacherous spies in the palace and the vassal states. It is not easy for the vassal king to raise an army... Before the vassal king has already reported to the capital!Moreover, a vassal state had too few troops and was easily surrounded and suppressed by the government garrisons, so they wanted to join forces to raise an army, but it seemed that they had not made a secret discussion on who was in charge for a long time.
Zhu Gaosui casually said: Don’t they want to stand out first?
Of course not!Gu Sheng said, once rebelled, it was a matter of keeping the whole family’s head in mind. If you don’t stand out, you will die if you fail.They are fighting for who will take the lead. Once they succeed, that person should be the emperor in the future.
Zhu Gaosui asked: Who are they?
Gu Sheng said: The people who have been reported secretly include King Dai, King Qin, King Jin, and King Gu.
King Gu is in Changsha, how could he rebel?Zhu Gaosui asked.
Gu Sheng said embarrassedly: The officials don’t know about this.
Zhu Gaosui's head is bigger!
His confidant eunuch Huang Yan had been urging him to raise an army recently; but Zhu Gaosui suddenly heard that so many vassal kings wanted to raise an army, and he was even more worried... because he could not conspire with those vassal kings!
Even if they rebel, they will definitely not be able to spare the people on King Yàn’s side!
Zhu Gaosui was not the same as other vassal kings.
He is too brave and doesn't know how to live or die!Zhu Gaosui thought about it and cursed his elder brother.What Huang Yan persuaded him to do was to raise an army against him.
After hearing this, Gu Sheng said: The matter probably started because of King Qi (Zhu Jing).
When Jianwen reduced the vassal states, the late emperor was forced to raise an army to resist, and the "Jingnan Battle" was incurred.
The late emperor raised an army, under the banner of restoring the ancestral system of Emperor Taizu, and believed that the reduction of the vassal state was wrong; but as soon as the late emperor took the throne, he immediately began to continue the policy of establishing the civilized national policy of reducing the vassal state!
The late emperor took advantage of the battle to conquer Annan Kingdom to gradually recruit and weaken the guards of the kings in the south; before his death, the court was planning the northern expedition to Mongolia and wanted to take the opportunity to continue to weaken the guards of the kings in the north.
When the kings heard the news, they were very dissatisfied.The late emperor then killed the chicken to warn the monkey and arrested the King of Qi who often complained and insulted the late emperor in the palace!The King of Qi and his son are still imprisoned in the capital!
Zhu Gaosui said uneasy: If the kings raise up a rebellion, will they not come to attack the governor and envoy of the Peking Provincial Government?
Gu Sheng said: Peiping is an important place, and the place they wanted to capture is probably this place.
Zhu Gaoshui cursed and said: Will the Mongolians come to Peking?
Gu Sheng advised with kind words: The Mongols don’t have to worry. At most, they burn, kill, robbed outside the city and could not capture Beiping City.After the demise of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, the grassland tribes fought for years, and it is difficult to gather a strong army at present, and the strength to attack important towns is insufficient.
Zhu Gaosui thought about it and suddenly felt that Huang Yan's knowledge was completely inferior to that of the Changshi Gu Sheng!
He thought to himself: I'm starting a military force now. What if those vassal kings fight over?If you don’t raise an army, you can at least ask for help from your elder brother, or simply throw it away from Peking and run to the capital.
I originally thought that Peking was a good place, but who knew that it would become a place for four battles now!
