Chapter 468: Heads Delivered! Emperor Yongle’s Methods!
Latest website:
It is about twenty miles north of the capital of Siam.
The atmosphere in the military tent in the Ming Dynasty King's Division was extremely solemn.
Dai Wang Zhu Gui, Su Wang Zhu Mei and others were sitting on stools, glaring at the coach Zhang Fu.
It took them several months and several months of fighting to finally reach this point in the Siam Ayutthaya Dynasty.
Seeing the capital of Siam right in front of them, they were about to end the war and start building their own new territory.
But at this moment, Zhang Fu, the commander-in-chief of the three armies, ordered the siege but not the attack, abruptly delaying the war.
Everyone couldn't understand why Zhang Fu did this. Didn't he understand the importance of speed in fighting?
Hehe, he is Zhang Fu, how could he not understand?
Following the example of his father Yu Lie, Zhang Fu conquered Jiaozhi in the south and conquered the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty in the north. He made great military exploits for the Ming Dynasty. He obtained a hereditary dukedom based on his military exploits, which shocked the entire southern Xinjiang!
Zhang Fu and Mu Sheng, Duke of Guizhou, were the ones who supported the entire southwest of the Ming Dynasty!
Therefore, Zhang Fugui is a famous general in the world, what doesn’t he understand?
But this bastard just keeps surrounding and refusing to attack, refusing to fight!
When he thought of this, the acting king Zhu Gui became extremely angry.
Zhu Gui had a bad temper and was used to doing evil in the fiefdom. He looked like an arrogant and domineering second generation ancestor with real power.
When the kings gathered together, it was Zhu Gui who jumped out first, patting his chest and promising to conquer Central and South China, riding an elephant to have fun in this new land.
As a result, several months have passed. His motherland Nanyang was almost penetrated by Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui, but these princes only captured Laos.
Moreover, Laos was still the Xuanwei Division of the Ming Dynasty and was originally part of the Ming Dynasty's territory.
Since the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, in addition to the formal prefectures under the Yunnan Chengxuan Envoy Department, the imperial court also had three Xuanfu Departments of Nandian, Qianya, Luchuan and Pingmian, as well as Mubang, Mengyang, Burma, and Babaidadian. , six Xuanwei departments in the car and Laos.
During the Yongle period, there were three Xuanwei bureaus: Dewu La, Da Gu Ci and Demasa.
The Xuanwei Division and the Xuanfu Division are, to put it bluntly, the local chieftains. The land and people are hereditary owned by the chieftains, as long as they ostensibly acknowledge that they belong to the Ming Dynasty.
These chieftain systems were actually a means of coopting up the native leaders in the southwestern border areas because the central government was unable to take care of them.
After all, the most important enemies of the Ming Dynasty in the past were the Mongolian Tatars in the north.
Therefore, in the areas south of Yunnan and Guizhou, the chieftain system was adopted to win over and control.
If we really want to calculate this, it seems that their Jingnan Army has not laid down even a piece of new soil since the expedition!
The only gain was to force these chieftains to voluntarily surrender, and then mobilize young men to form an army to accompany the king's division to continue the southern expedition.
It’s so fucking embarrassing to say this!
"Zhang Fu, you bastard, what do you want to do?"
Zhu Gui couldn't stand it anymore and stood up and roared: "You let me go to the battle. I will only lead my troops on behalf of the palace. In less than three days, the king can break through this so-called big city..."
"If there is no military order, who dares to go to war? Military law will be followed!"
Facing the furious acting king Zhu Gui, Zhang Fu just replied lightly without giving in at all.
Upon hearing Zhang Fu's words, Zhu Gui wanted to say a few harsh words to maintain his dignity as the prince of the Ming Dynasty.
However, when he noticed Zhang Fu's deep eyes, he was instantly frightened. He could only kick the desk over, get up and leave with a curse.
Seeing this, the other vassal kings all dared to stay and retreated.
Zhang Fu looked at these clan princes with his brows furrowed.
King of Han, King of Han, you are really clever at playing this game, aren't you afraid of really getting into trouble?
Release the kings, grant them military power, and even equip one king with 30,000 elite soldiers!
The vassal king's army in the Jingnan Army alone is nearly 200,000 strong!
Once these vassal kings develop undue ambitions and secretly collude, the Ming Dynasty may be in danger of overthrowing in an instant.
However, the Han King Zhu Gaoxu, a thief, allowed himself to suppress these clan princes and prevent them from emerging.
Suppression is suppression, but you can't keep delaying it, right?
Especially after Zhang Fu received Zhang Min's secret letter, he was even more confused and panicked.
Zhang Fu, the third eldest son of the family, risked his life to rebel in order to let the King of Han seize the throne!
When Zhang Fu heard the news, his heart was already cold.
He fought on the battlefield in southern Xinjiang, fighting for the glory of a warrior in all lands for the old Zhang family.
As a result, the third son of his family was causing trouble in the capital, and even secretly conspired to launch a rebellion!
For a moment, Zhang Fu felt that the sky was about to fall, and he immediately wanted to go back to Beijing to plead guilty and keep the old Zhang family's reputation.
After all, conspiracy to rebel is a serious crime against the Nine Clans!
Zhang Fu didn't dare to bet on whether His Majesty the Emperor would miss his old friendship and let his old Zhang family go.
Because once the bet is lost, everyone will be killed.
However, just as Zhang Fu was preparing to return to Beijing, a secret letter from Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu arrived.
After reading the secret letter from the King of Han, Zhang Fu realized how dangerous the situation in the capital was, and he was frightened into a cold sweat.
If he really returned to Beijing alone, he might have been imprisoned now. UU Reading www.uukanshu． net
After all, he is commanding troops outside and is also responsible for suppressing the kings. Even if His Majesty is dissatisfied with the old Zhang family, he does not dare to touch him easily!
In other words, Zhang Fu now has a bit of a "supporting troops and self-respect" flavor.
It was for this reason that Zhang Fu decisively suspended the war.
Even if hundreds of thousands of troops consume countless amounts of food and grass every day, Zhang Fu can still afford to wait!
Because he wanted to know His Majesty the Emperor's attitude, and he was waiting for His Majesty's imperial edict!
Zhang Fu can die. He brought the blame on himself and brought about his own destruction. Even if he dies, he can't blame others!
However, if His Majesty the Emperor really wants to take action against the old Zhang family, Zhang Fu will never agree.
His old Zhang family sacrificed their lives and blood for the Ming Dynasty, did they end up like this in the end?
Just when Zhang Fu was secretly feeling sad, the brocade box from the capital finally arrived.
The captain of the Dongchang School solemnly handed the brocade box to Zhang Fu's mouth and said in a low voice: "Pass the Holy Order!"
Zhang Fu didn't hesitate, he knelt down and took the brocade box with both hands.
"Wen Bi, this is the answer I give you!"
"In the southwest, I will leave it to you and Jing Mao (Mu Sheng)."
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Fu was a little moved.
The captain in Jinyi stepped forward and opened the brocade box, only to see a head placed neatly inside. It was none other than the prime minister in black, Yao Guangxiao!
Your Majesty, kill Yao Guangxiao?
Looking at the pickled human head, Zhang Fu finally couldn't hold it in any longer. He knelt down and cried: "I thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. I am willing to die for the Ming Dynasty!"
It would be a lie to say that I am not impressed.
Who in the government and the public does not know about the relationship between Yao Guangxiao and His Majesty the Emperor?
Even Zhang Fu didn't expect that the emperor would chop off Yao Guangxiao's dog head in order to appease him!
Now that Yao Guangxiao has died, Ah Fuquan knows that he can rest in peace.
