On the city tower, Li Xiu stood beside Zhu Youjian, both of them were watching the Yongwei camp army that kept flowing out of the capital along the city gate.
Unlike Zhu Youjian's excitement as he watched the huge war, Li Xiu frowned at this time, as if he was thinking about something.
After a long time, Zhu Youjian took a look away from the cold warriors. Perhaps because of Li Xiu's subtle influence, even though Zhu Youjian ascended the throne, his love for military affairs not only did not weaken, but also became much stronger.
However, soldiers are weapons. Since Zhu Youjian ascended the throne and ran to Yongwei Battalion for inspection on a whim, and was criticized by civil servants all over the court, Zhu Youjian had to suppress his love for military affairs.
Although there are internal soldiers in the palace, no matter how well equipped the army is, no matter how well equipped it is, it is always just a good product.
"If all the soldiers and generals of the Ming Dynasty had such elite troops, how could I worry so much!"
"Don't worry, your Majesty, there will be such a day!"
Li Xiu was silent for a moment and bowed his hand to answer.
"Hope!"
Zhu Youjian sighed lightly and shook his head:
"Your identity is special and you must be plotted against others. Be careful!"
"I have asked Dongchang to keep in touch with you..."
After saying that, Zhu Youjian paused for a while and said, "Extraordinary times, extraordinary things can be done, and it is important to protect yourself!"
This was heard, and Li Xiu frowned and couldn't help but relieve a little, and said with a smile: "If this is true, I'm afraid that Your Majesty will have to clean up the mess for Mo Jiang!"
Zhu Youjian smiled and shook his head. He didn't say anything. He knew Li Xiu for so long, so he naturally knew that Li Xiu was far more cautious than he thought.
Whether it is to all officials or to him, the emperor...
...
More than 10,000 soldiers and soldiers lined up in a row, and the soldiers and soldiers who escorted food, grass, and weapons, spread to the official road for several miles, and it was beyond your sight.
The cavalry ran around both ends of the army, while conveying military orders, and maintaining the order of the army.
The army was in the middle of the army, and the flag of commander was waving. The conspicuous Li flag clearly proved where the army's morale gathered.
Li Xiu was sitting on the war horse, and the map in his hand that he had studied countless times also occupied all his attention at this moment.
According to the imperial court's plan, the scope of the Yongwei Camp's activities was naturally within the Northern Zhili. Strictly speaking, it was to suppress the several Caotou kings in Northern Zhili and prevent the peasant army from being attacked from Shaanxi and Shandong to Northern Zhili.
The mission can naturally be considered simple. Of course, this time, I spent a lot of effort to get the Yongwei Camp out of the capital, and the main purpose was naturally not for these peasant troops.
Whether it was Zhu Youjian or Li Xiu, the two had already reached a consensus on this!
After all, if the Yongwei Camp is in the capital, it will immediately attract everyone's attention. Even if the Yongwei Camp does nothing, the Yongwei Camp has long become a thorn in the eyes of many civil servants.
Not to mention that Zhu Youjian and Li Xiu are both eager to expand their troops!
I guess if there is a slight move, the one who greets the two will be criticized by all the officials in the court.
But it is naturally different outside. As the saying goes, the sky is high and the birds can fly, so that's it.
There is no shortage of food and supplies, and the weapons have been prepared. As for the source of troops, let alone the disaster victims everywhere can stutter and collect a lot of them.
When the expansion of the army is completed and the capital is back, it is useless if no one says it.
Li Xiu and Zhu Youjian have long been tacitly aware of this.
After thinking for a long time, Li Xiu picked up the charcoal pen and circled the map a few o'clock before putting it away. He looked around at the march sequence, and couldn't help but look at the distant north, and his brows frowned again.
The news that the Later Jin sent troops to Mongolia took more than a month and naturally had already spread to the capital.
Li Xiu naturally learned from Zhu Youjian that there is no doubt that history has broken down again.
I just don’t know if the Later Jin sent troops to Mongolia simply to suppress Mongolia or have something else to ask for?
Recalling the fact that the Later Jin Xizuo is now stirring up troubles in various parts of the Ming Dynasty, and the death of Tianqi, Zhu Youjian, the new emperor, ascended the throne, was turbulent, and the Later Jin defeated the attack on Ningyuan, Li Xiu felt that the Later Jin was probably asking for something else to seek when he entered Mongolia this time.
Of course, the most important thing is that until now, no news of Nurhaci's death has been reported...
Nurhaci was not dead, and he also marched into Mongolia...
All kinds of thoughts flowed into my mind, and a possibility that had happened in history became more and more certain, and the urgency in Li Xiu's heart also rose.
"Send the order to let Xu Feng and Zhou Yuji come over!"
"Abide by the order!"
The messenger took the order and quickly came out. Soon, Erwazi and Zhou Yuji, who were ordered to patrol the army, came quickly, turned over and dismounted, and half knelt on the ground.
"Last general, see the general!"
The rules in the army are very strict. Even if the second child is subtly influenced by military rules, except for the two of them getting along on weekdays, they are also called generals at other times.
After signaling the second general to get up, Li Xiu handed the map to Erwazi and his two.
"At this marching speed, it will take at least half a month to reach the designated area. I will want to take the lead with you and take the lead first."
After Li Xiu finished speaking, Erwazi and his two gazes did not rush to reply, but tacitly looked at the two place names enclosed by Li Xiu on the map, which were naturally familiar to the two.
Today, although there are many chaos in Beizhili, there are only three real troubles, and they are all on the edge of the border between Beizhili and other provinces.
Of course, no matter how much trouble it is, it cannot change the essence of the peasant army. Before going through several transformations, no matter how many troops the peasant army has, it cannot change its current vulnerable nature.
Even if Zhu Youjian had not forcibly promoted the Yongwei Camp to leave the capital, the power of the local garrisons alone would be enough to make these peasant soldiers drink a pot.
"I won't say much about suppressing the thief. The most important thing is to select strong people and train auxiliary soldiers. I will give you three months. After three months, I will lead my troops to join me."
"I will obey the order!"
After the military order was issued, the two of them naturally did not dare to have any objection, and they took the order in unison and left.
Looking at the figures of the two of them leaving quickly, Li Xiu seemed to come back to his senses and looked at a man who looked like an eunuch beside him.
This person is naturally the Dongchang contact person arranged by Zhu Youjian, named Li Zhi.
"Eunuch Li! I have to ask you to send someone to come."
Li Xiu's attitude towards eunuchs was still quite kind.
"Please give me orders, General?"
Li Zhi's attitude was quite right.
"I'm sorry, please send someone back to the East Factory. Please pay more attention to the situation in Mongolia. If there is any change, I'm sorry, please inform Li in time..."
