"The reason why the Chahar tribe rose was because the Ming Dynasty was fighting against Jiannu at that time, and the nine border troops were emptying the seventh, which allowed him to encroach on the southern desert and the Neikhalka."

In the western warm pavilion of the Ganqing Palace, the Minister of War Cui Chengxiu was reporting.

This example has existed since ancient times. In the Ming Dynasty, whenever there was a major event and the emperor was unsure of his mind, he would call his confidant minister to meet and discuss it. This was to report.

After the report, the ministers will basically be regarded as the emperor's confidants by the civil and military officials of the court, and their prestige will increase a lot, which is also a symbol of honor for the ministers.

Cui Chengxiu has always regarded himself as an eunuch. Although Emperor Tianqi has always had a close relationship with him, this is the first time he was summoned to the West Warehouse to report.

This was a affirmation and a spur to him.

Donglin's fall in the court was already an irreversible trend. The eunuch party was dominant in the future, and the emperor must have the skills to weigh the rules. How to choose depends on himself.

Cui Chengxiu knew in his heart that the emperor wanted him to be the Minister of War, which was not because he had excellent knowledge of his battle strategy, but because he did not want Donglin to occupy it.

Now that Donglin has fallen, he can only continue to do his best to make suggestions, and on the other hand, it is time to abdicate and give way to the virtuous.

As for where the Minister of War will go to work afterwards, or if he resigns and returns home, it depends on the meaning of Emperor Tianqi.

After hearing him say this, Zhu Youxiao tightened the brocade fur that was covered with tightness and said:

"You are right. Lindanbaturus regards himself as a Mongolian Khan. He is just a lip service to me and the Ming Dynasty. In fact, in his heart, he only wants to restore the hegemony of his golden family."

"What is the solution for you? Let me listen..."

After saying that, he looked at Choi Chengxiu.

When Cui Chengxiu received the imperial edict last night, he guessed that it was for this matter and to be able to perform well in front of the emperor, he racked his brains and did not come up with any good solution.

"Your Majesty, now the Chahar tribe is in its prime, and all the tribes in the south of the desert and the four tribes in the Neikalka tribes surrender to it, and Lindan Batuer has not only flocked to the three guards in the north of the Seychelles at one time."

"Look? Can the court order the three guards in the north to move inward? Leave the land of the three guards to Chahar's garrison..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhu Youxiao snorted coldly? He scolded:

"absurd--!"

"The imperial court fought with Jiannu last year? In order to protect Fuyuwei, Jiannu was one after another in Guangning to Jinzhou. Wouldn't it be a cold military morale if he gave up so easily?"

"You are still the Minister of War? Are you not having any other ideas in your stomach?"

Zhu Youxiao said? He sighed, glanced at the window eaves, looked at the light snow flying outside the warm pavilion, and didn't know whether it was an exclamation of the current situation or a disappointment with Cui Chengxiu.

Choi Chengxiu is helpless? She has nothing to say.

The king and his ministers were silent. After a while, Zhu Youxiao stood up and looked at the border situation hanging in the West Warehouse Pavilion.

Since the news of the rise of the Chahar tribe, this picture has been hung by Zhu Youxiao in the West Warehouse Pavilion so that it can watch the situation at any time and curb the Western Husband.

The Eastern Lu Jianzhou? It mainly refers to Nurhaci, the Western Lu Mongolia? It refers to Lindanbatu, which was the name of the Ming Dynasty for the outside of the Great Wall.

I have to say that at this time? The domestic famine has just begun. These two people outside the Great Wall are the so-called heroes in history.

Zhu Youxiao tried his best to suppress one, and in a blink of an eye another appeared.

However, compared to Nurhaci, Lindanbatuer’s so-called stretching thousands of miles is actually full of internal troubles. Zhu Youxiao has already had some ideas, but it is still to be verified and confirmed.

After all, such a big national policy cannot be determined based on your wishful thinking alone, and the impact of this on the future situation is immeasurable.

Zhu Youxiao must ask more questions to make up this decision.

"well…"

Zhu Youxiao first broke the deadlock, turned around and threw out a pond newspaper, saying: "Look, this is the latest pond newspaper sent by Datong Town yesterday."

"You Minister of War, I'm afraid you don't know."

Choi Chengxiu was shocked and quickly picked it up and looked at it.

This was amazing, and he didn't expect Lindan Batu to be so bold.

Lin Danbatuer took a two-pronged approach. On the one hand, he gave the national letter to attract attention and sought the fortress of the North Three Guards. The Wuqiyete, Duoyan, and Wengniutte tribes, who were called the North Three Guards, were originally under the jurisdiction of the Mongolian Khan.

Among them, Jaiser of Uziyet is a descendant of his Golden Family.

As a Mongolian Khan, he has the right and ability to deal with his rebellion. He also hopes that the Ming Dynasty will not interfere with Chahar's attack on Wuqiyete of Fuyuwei.

"Now it's Uchiyete, and then it's Duoyan and Wengniut's turn. The three guards in the north of the Sebei region are afraid that they can't block his mouth. Korqin and Dongtumote are the next ones."

After Cui Chengxiu finished speaking, she put down the Tang newspaper in shock.

Zhu Youxiao snorted coldly and said:

"It seems that you, the Minister of War, still have some insights, much better than Zhang Heming and Wang Huazhen, but I don't think so."

"If Lindan Batuer eats the three guards in the north of Sebei, he will not dare to act too much towards Korqin and Dongtumot. Although Jiannu on the other side has suffered heavy damage, his strength is still there."

"Lindanbatuer has always been very afraid of Jianzhou and will have tentative actions, but as long as Jianzhou sends troops, he will not provoke Korqin and Dongtumot again."

Speaking of this, Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said:

"It's too early to say this now, and I won't give in to the three guards in the north of Sebei. If it really doesn't work, then let's fight another match."

Zhu Youxiao sat back on the dragon throne and sneered:

"This Lindan Batuer has made an open letter to ask me for the fortress of the North Three Guards and the Enthronement. In fact, you see, he has also gone to Datong Dacao Valley."

Choi Chengxiu nodded and sighed:

"Lindan Batuer seemed to be trying to launch troops against the three guards in the north of the Selangor. In fact, Xitumot surrounded the tiger's mouth. The court gathered heavy troops on Datong West Road, but they came in from Aries entrance on Datong East Road."

"The Aries' troops were weak, and the Chahar tribe has invaded since then. The commander of the Zhenlu Guard has died three days ago."

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said:

"Killing Hukou and the three guards in the north of Saibei are baits to lure troops. In fact, Lindan Batuer was going to come in from Aries. He had already made up his mind to come to Datong and get a vote for Xuanfu."

Choi Chengxiu also came to the edge of the map, looked at the military deployment of the border town, and said:

"We stretched thousands of miles towards the border, and there were not enough troops on the nine sides. It was too difficult to defend every point with such a long border line. It was not the fault of the local generals."

Zhu Youxiao naturally knew that this was not the fault of the local generals, nor did he mean to punish him. Tian Geng, the commander of the Zhenlu Guard, died in Aries' mouth, and he also used practical actions to prove that he was not a greedy person who was afraid of fighting.

But this is the situation. In history, Lin Danbatu's invasions several times, but no one could stop him. On the current issue, how can he not let the next invasion happen again?

Just as he was talking about this, Wang Chaofu, the governor of the Qing Palace, came to the door and replied softly:

"Master, Sun Chuanting and Lu Xiangsheng are here."
