Chapter 931
The next morning, Zhao Bing and Li Sanniang went to Cining Palace to pay their respects together. When Empress Dowager Yang saw her blushing face, she understood what was going on. She rewarded her with a golden jade-inlaided Ruyi, and held her hands and spoke for a while. He took the opportunity to report to the Empress Dowager that he wanted to stay in Wuxue for a while. One was to discuss state affairs with the ministers; the other was to be more convenient and convenient to keep it confidential, and not far from each ministries and provinces, so it was convenient to get in and out.
Zhao Bing estimated that it would take longer to go out this time, so he wanted to temporarily be managed by the Empress Dowager in the palace. Empress Dowager Yang thought for a moment and felt that since the emperor had already established a concubine, he should not interfere in the affairs of the harem. Even if the queen had ever wanted to seize his power, he could only be temporarily replaced by others, and he would not have to worry about everything. The position of the imperial concubine was second only to the Empress, so it was not impossible to temporarily be managed by him.
Later, the queen and the concubines also came to pay their respects. Zhao Bing took the opportunity to announce that the Empress Wu Xi had a mistake, and he thought about his mistakes in the palace. The affairs of the harem were temporarily handed over to the imperial concubine Chen Shu to manage, with the assistance of the Concubine De Zhang Ping and the Concubine Xian Lei Yan. Su Lan was promoted to the chief magistrate of the Palace and the female official in charge of Zhiyuan Hall. Everyone thanked him, and then went to Chen Shu's Xueqiongzhai to have breakfast and gave a few words of advice. Wang De had already ordered people to pack up all the things, and Ni Liang had already gathered in the team and waited for the sage.
Zhao Bing was still wearing old military uniforms and mixed with the escort team, leaving the palace gate. The brigade and regiment stationed outside the palace had received orders to return to the camp last night, and Aoshan, lanterns and colored sheds had also been removed, making it look much empty. On the imperial street, it can be seen that there were court officials, either riding horses, sitting in sedan chairs, or riding donkeys, or rushing in front of the front or behind, or simply following the light chariots, and more of them came to work. Seeing the teams of the guard camp avoiding each other, everyone is learning to be smart, who knows whether the little emperor is among them? The famous Wu family was defeated by a prodigal son.
Days and morning courts have always been regarded as a manifestation of the emperor's diligence. However, after entering Lin'an, Zhao Bing still followed the old rules of Qiongzhou, and did not have to daydays. Every Friday, 10th, and two days of the morning and night are the grand dynasty meetings. At first, he was a little worried about being impeached and advised by the ministers, but surprisingly, few people raised objections, and everyone implemented them well. I think everyone knew that there were not so many things that needed to be reported to the emperor every day, and in fact, it could not solve any problem except for quarrel and verbal battles.
And morning court is really a hard work. It is far from the palace city. At the second update, you have to get up and dress up, eat breakfast, and you can't eat too much, and drink less water. Because there is no toilet in the palace at first, and I don't know when the court will end. But in the palace, the emperor will not say that the court will be dispersed, and you have to endure it even if you have to hold back your urine. At the fourth update, you will have to rush to the front of the palace. It's better in summer. If it's winter, it's still dark and there's a little breeze blowing, it's really awesome. Since the emperor understands it, everyone will be happy. If anyone advises the emperor to court every day, he will definitely be regarded as a public enemy.
Without any time to think about it, Zhao Bing and his group went straight through the old palace gate to the location of the martial arts. When he arrived, all the generals had already reported in advance, waiting in front of the gate, and welcomed him into the courtyard where he had settled in. At this time, the martial arts school had already started and it was much more lively. However, in order not to disturb these big guys, they still drew a cordon, set up the backyard of the school headquarters as a restricted area, and set up a guard post.
Speaking of which, martial arts was adapted from the former New Army Teaching Brigade, and Zhao Bing also served as the "mountain chief". Students who graduated from here can be called real disciples of the emperor. However, when the attack on the Jiangnan Campaign, Chen Renweng, the formerly responsible education director, was ordered to form the Inland Water Army and then transferred to the Yangtze River Water Army Defense Envoy. Now he will serve as the Minister of War, but the training director Ni Liang and General Secretary Zhuang Duke.
But Ni Liang had to worry about the guards in front of the army. In fact, the burden was on Duke Zhuang from one person. After entering Jiangnan, the departments expanded and drawn a large number of teachers and students from martial arts. After moving to Lin'an, he was responsible for site selection and reconstruction, and at the same time tried to maintain uninterrupted teaching and ensure that the teacher was not lost. Not to mention how much he knew about the military, this organizational ability was also very accessible to people.
"Chen Dun, how about you want to work in the martial arts school?" Zhao Bing turned his face and said to Chen Dun.
"Your Majesty, don't joke with your subordinates. It's almost the same for me to study here. If you come here, you'll be dismissed!" Chen Dun shook his head repeatedly and said.
"You can't always be a guard for me for the rest of your life. Now there are few people here. You have systematically studied military affairs and have the experience of leading troops. You are just suitable for the position of training director!" Zhao Bing frowned.
"Your Majesty is annoying me? Are you trying to drive me away?" Chen Dun thought the little emperor was joking, so he tilted his head and looked at him with a smile.
"I am worried that you will be annoyed. Besides, I will be abandoned when I am always by my side!" Zhao Bing said with a calm face.
"Who said I'm upset with Your Majesty? I'm willing to be by Your Majesty for the rest of my life..." Seeing the little emperor speaking seriously, Chen Dun realized that he was serious and wanted to tell a few words, but his eyes turned red.
They were both friends and made friends in times of hardship. Although Chen Dun was a little older than His Majesty, he was actually the little emperor who took care of him and tolerated him like his elder brother, and did not abandon him because of his naughtiness. Therefore, in Chen Dun's heart, the relationship between the two was said to be friends, but in fact they were both teachers and friends, and they complained constantly, and they were already very dependent on him.
"I am quite like a man on weekdays, but now I am like a woman. Do you want me to wipe it for you?" Seeing his appearance, Zhao Bing felt ache. After all, the two have been fighting together for more than ten years, and they are one of their few friends. He smiled and raised his hand and said.
"Your Majesty, let me lead the troops. With my personality, I am not suitable for here!" Chen Dun avoided and said embarrassedly.
"I don't have to talk to you too much about the great significance of martial arts!" Zhao Bing said after listening to it, "At present, I have just been in charge of the affairs of the martial arts, and I can't take care of it for a while; Chen Renweng was immediately transferred to the Ministry of War, and there were many things there, so I couldn't take care of it either; Ni Liang, you have also seen that the imperial guards have tens of thousands of people, and they can't take care of it at all. If you don't share my worries, who else can I count on?"
"But I have to be in charge of training, I have no idea. Besides, I am still young and I don't say that I am afraid that I will let down Your Majesty's expectations!" Chen Dun saw that he was so at this level that he knew it would be difficult to shirk it, but he still said that he was worried.
"Haha, you still know that you are afraid. You dare to challenge me in public and make trouble in front of the generals. No matter who is the old ministers don't let you get some points?" Zhao Bing smiled after hearing this.
"Your Majesty, don't joke. You were young and didn't know the importance of it, so how could you compare now!" Chen Dun said with a bitter face after being revealed.
"Chen Renweng was only your age when he was training the Defensive Army. Ni Liang was not as good as yours. They were capable of any of them and did a good job. Why couldn't you do it?" Zhao Bing said.
"Your Majesty, I..."
"Stop being stubborn, I understand you and trust you. When I transferred you from the First Division to the guard camp, I had to lead the troops without reason and command it was because you could bear great responsibilities. But the young man was full of energy and acted recklessly, so he had to polish your temperament. Now after several years of training, it has been a pierced on his butt. I believe you can do this well!" Zhao Bing waved his hand to stop him.
"Your Majesty, I can come to martial arts, but Your Majesty also has to agree to me!" Chen Dun thought for a while and said.
"Aren't you just thinking about leading the army to fight? I promised that once the battle to recover the Central Plains begins, you will lead your army alone to fight with me!" Zhao Bing said without even asking.
"Thank you, my subordinates, obey your order!" Chen Dun said happily.
"After Wei Tianzhong was deposed, his mansion was still empty. I have already found someone to clean up. Let's move there one day!" Zhao Bing nodded and said, "If you get married as soon as possible, I can be worthy of Chen Xiang who died in his country and complete Mrs. Xu's entrustment."
"Thank you Your Majesty for the reward. As for getting married, your Majesty still needs to worry about it!" Chen Dun turned into his former appearance again and said with a smile.
"You really don't treat yourself as an outsider. I'm not your father, and I'm still responsible for marrying you!" Zhao Bing rolled his eyes and said, "I want to live here for a few days. You can adapt. After the order is ordered, you will take the post immediately. Get out of here, get out!"...
Zhao Bing placed his belongings and washed his face before summoning the generals to discuss the matter. First of all, Zhao Mengjin and Jiang Jin talked about his ideas about what His Majesty said last time. The two agreed with each other. They thought that if they could not improve their defense status by launching the Huaixi Battle, it would be best to launch a series of small-scale battles to destroy the enemy's deployment, force them to give up large-scale southward combat, and at the same time improve their defense situation.
Liu Zhu also believed that taking the initiative to launch an attack was the best way to defend, and the Mongolian army would use the navy to attack Jiangnan. There were two ways to enter the Yangtze River if the Goryeo navy came from the south. One was to enter the sea from the Yangtze River estuary along the sea route that transported grain back then; the other was to enter the Huai River from the entrance of the Huanghuai River, and then turn into the canal to move south from Yangzhou. Therefore, the navy could be sent north to block the entrance of the Huanghuai River, fight a decisive battle with the enemy, and annihilate the enemy and the sea; the other was to strengthen the blockade of the canal estuary and block the enemy from the south.
In addition, Liu Zhu suggested that he should take the initiative first and launch an attack on the Mongol Yuan Hui navy stationed in Leichi, causing it to lose its ability to invade the south. Current intelligence shows that the enemy will have the greatest possibility of attacking Jiangzhou from now on, or two groups will attack at the same time to complete the encirclement of Jiangdong. It is still the beginning of the year, the Yangtze River is still dry, the water is slow, the river is shallow, which is a good time to cross the river. At the same time, the trade wind has risen, merchant ships come south, and the Goryeo navy can mix and move south among the foreign ships. It should make a quick decision and send troops quickly.
"The three men of the three have a good analysis. Attack is the best defense. But this time we fight, we do not seek to recover the land in Jiangbei, but to destroy the enemy's deployment and avoid triggering a full-scale war. Therefore, the intensity and scope of the battle must be strictly controlled to avoid the war moving south and affecting our dynasty's rest and recuperation!" Zhao Bing said after hearing this.
"How to fight, please give orders from your Majesty!" Zhao Mengjin said.
"According to the latest information, the Goryeo Navy went south to Haizhou Bay, and it was estimated that it would carry the newly trained navy of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty to move south. Now it is time for the trade wind to change, and it takes less than a few days to reach Huai'an. Therefore, the navy should set out first to stop it from continuing to move south. As long as it is annihilated, it can cut off one of the enemy's arms. The Mongolian army's return to the waters alone are hard to whistle, and even if it crosses the river, it will be difficult to pose a substantial threat to our dynasty!" Zhao Bing pondered for a moment and pointed at the sand table on the table.
"Your Majesty, the task of the first navy fleet is to defend the Yangtze River Estuary. It will take some time for the other two armies to move north. If they go to fight, once the enemy successfully penetrates into the river from Haikou, it will threaten the safety of the capital!" Liu Zhu said.
"Isn't there any imperial navy troops there? They can be replaced!" Zhao Bing said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, Zheng Dutong of the Imperial Navy is outside, and the Imperial Navy also has the defense of the Qiantang River Estuary. If it is transferred north, it will worry about losing one or the other!" Liu Zhu frowned and said.
"Dutong Dong, your troops will take a voyage in a few days!" Zhao Bing did not answer, but turned to Dong Yicheng and asked.
"Report to Your Majesty, our troops are waiting for the battle every day. After receiving the order, the outpost can go out immediately. After the brigade replenishes supplies and ammunition, they can follow up immediately!" Dong Yixing stood up and replied.
"Okay, I'll give you three days to formulate a combat plan, replenish the baggage, and then set sail immediately to intercept the Goryeo naval army. Be sure to annihilate the enemy at sea!" Zhao Bing said.
"I obey the order. If I fail, come and see you!" Dong Yicheng said with politeness.
"Your Majesty, be cautious and don't be reckless!" Liu Zhu hurriedly advised.
"If the Goryeo Navy can defeat the interception of our two naval forces one after another and break into the capital, we should all commit suicide and apologize!" Zhao Bing snorted coldly.
"Your Majesty, the last general will turn around immediately and prepare to defend against the enemy!" Jiang Zheng stood up and saluted.
"Jiangdu Shuai, don't worry!" Zhao Bing pressed his hand and asked him to sit down first, "I originally wanted to keep you in the capital for more days and be intimate and discuss major plans together, but the Tartars did not allow it. Although the war is about to start, they are not in a hurry. If the Goryeo Navy is not in trouble, they will not launch an attack rashly. We still have time to discuss some things."
"Yes, I will obey the order!" Jiang Zheng sat down before saluting.
"At present, I agree with you. The enemy's attack locations may be Jiangzhou and Yangzhou. Our strategy for this battle is to keep the enemy from the outside and attack instead of defending. However, if the enemy's potential for another southward invasion is eliminated, it is the right way to avoid falling into years of war. What good strategies do you have to say as much as possible!" Zhao Bing glanced at the generals and said.
"Your Majesty, my subordinates think that our army can order the troops along the river to launch a small-scale assault at the same time, explore the enemy's deployment, and then confirm the target of the attack." Zhao Mengjin stood up and said.
