Chapter 138 Killing all the millions of soldiers in Jiangnan

"Jiangnan has become the biggest hidden danger of the Ming Dynasty, and it will not be easy to clean up."

"But if Jiangnan takes the initiative to rebel, the meaning is different. We can legitimately suppress Jiangnan and launch a cleansing of Jiangnan."

"The Donglin Party, the feudal lords, the gentry, and the wealthy businessmen will clean up all these moths and bring Jiangnan back under the control of the imperial court. With Jiangnan's strong manpower and material resources as the backing, it will be much easier to quell the unrest on all sides.

"

Zhu Houzhao spoke eloquently: "Don't take those people in Jiangnan too seriously. I'm afraid their threat is not as good as Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong and other bandits."

The land of Jiangnan is a land of red cherry blossoms and green willows, affluence and peace. Neither the gentry nor the common people have any idea about war, and have never even been exposed to war in their lives. This leads to the fact that although there are many talented people in Jiangnan, there are really not many who can fight.

Xu Hongji, the Donglin Party and others supported Lu Wang Zhu Changzi to rebel and created a Southern Ming court. But what was the situation of their army and who were the leading generals?

Everyone here knows it.

Putting down the Jiangnan rebellion is really not a big problem.

"What Zhu Houzhao said is not unreasonable. The rebellion in Jiangnan just gave us a reason to clean up Jiangnan. As long as we control Jiangnan, the day when the unrest in various places will subside is not far away."

Lao Zhu expressed his agreement with Zhu Houzhao's view.

"this"

Zhu Houzhao deliberately provoked the general.

Lao Zhu sneered and said proudly: "This time I will let you know that we can create the Ming Dynasty single-handedly, and we do not just rely on bragging."

Zhu Qizhen snorted secretly, feeling extremely aggrieved and unhappy.

Old Zhu said suspiciously, it is really strange that Zhu Houzhao, a rebellious son and grandson who does not know how to respect his elders, also knows how to flatter him.

Zhu Biao, Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Qiyu, Zhu Jianshen, Zhu Youxian and others expressed their opinions one after another, and they all agreed that it was not too difficult to pacify Jiangnan.

He complained and was angry, but he never thought about how he could end up in a situation where everyone was shameless.

Lao Zhu wanted to take Zhu Qiyu with him by name. Firstly, Zhu Qiyu was one of the few people in Lao Zhu's family who knew how to fight. Secondly, Lao Zhu wanted to teach Zhu Qiyu himself. After all, Zhu Qiyu was one of the best among Zhu Di's family.

One that is pleasing to the eye.

But Zhu Houzhao had another wishful thinking when he asked Lao Zhu to pacify Jiangnan.

Everyone likes Zhu Qiyu, and everyone despises and hates him Zhu Qizhen. Didn't he call the door once just to survive? As for him, he kept staring at him.

He was the first emperor in history to complete the task of determining the north from the south, and he was most aware of the wealth in the south of the Yangtze River. It can be said that as long as he controlled the south of the Yangtze River, the chaos of the Chongzhen Dynasty would no longer be chaos and could be easily pacified.

"It's possible that Grandpa Taizu hasn't raised his sword for a long time, and even those losers in Jiangnan are afraid of him."

"Thank you very much, Grandpa Taizu. Grandpa Taizu personally led the troops to conquer the south of the Yangtze River."

In times of crisis, he was ordered to turn the tide and turn the tide. This alone made Zhu Qiyu hundreds and thousands of times stronger than Zhu Qizhen.

Among the emperors of Lao Zhu's family, only Lao Zhu could suppress him and send Lao Zhu away, so he could do whatever he wanted. Although the Chongzhen Dynasty was in ruins, there were still many good things worth looting.

Zhu Qiyu responded quickly.

Zhu Youjian's eyebrows were filled with joy and he showed great hospitality.

Everyone in Lao Zhu's family, including Lao Zhu himself, were shocked by Zhu Houzhao's words and asked him to pacify Jiangnan. Zhu Houzhao's imagination was really big.

Lao Zhu asked directly.

"A temporary pseudo-imperial court formed by a group of moths will not be able to achieve success."

The Jian slaves were blocked outside the customs for many years and could not really threaten the Ming Dynasty. Why was it that after Wu Sangui released the Jian slaves into the customs, he was able to quickly sweep through the Central Plains and pacify the world? It was because those people in Jiangnan were so useless.

"Killed all the millions of soldiers in the south of the Yangtze River, and the sword on his waist was still bloody."

Sun Chengzong was well versed in military affairs and knew the art of war, but both of them were from the Donglin Party. If they were asked to pacify the puppet court of the Southern Ming Dynasty headed by the Donglin Party members, no one in the old Zhu family would be at ease.

By grasping the huge resources of Jiangnan and using Jiangnan's power to provide relief to the people from all walks of life who have been displaced by natural disasters and become refugees, the situation in the Ming Dynasty will soon be reversed.

Who to send to pacify Jiangnan has become a question that is temporarily difficult to decide.

"Grandfather Taizu rose from his humble beginnings and created the Ming Dynasty. He was also a man who knew how to fight. With Grandfather Taizu personally leading the army, I think it won't take long to pacify the south of the Yangtze River."

This is also true. The gang of trash in Jiangnan who have high vision but low skill can never defeat Lao Zhu. Without the twenty-four generals of Huaixi by his side, Lao Zhu is still Lao Zhu. He is an excellent general in command.

They all have high ambitions but low ambitions, and talk about military affairs on paper. When they brag, they are like a god of war possessing them, pointing out the country and making them invincible. In the blink of an eye, the captives are wiped out, but once they go to the battlefield, they become weak-footed shrimps and are useless.

"snort"

Generals Cao Wenzhao, Cao Bianjiao, Chen Qiyu, Huang Degong, Liu Zeqing, Zuo Liangyu, Hong Chengchou and other generals have their own tasks and cannot be easily mobilized for the time being.

Zhu Houzhao boasted to Lao Zhu, as if the people in Jiangnan were just chickens and dogs, not worth mentioning at all. As long as Lao Zhu took action, Jiangnan could be pacified easily.

"Afraid, joke."

Zhu Youjian's face suddenly became extremely embarrassed. After Zhu Di selected and reorganized all the major armies guarding the capital, only 10,000 troops were barely available. Zhu Di took all of those 10,000 troops to Ningyuan.

Zhu Houzhao said softly, saying that he would not stop until he was shocked.

He was called the Son of Heaven for the first time in history, and the Ming Dynasty was completely disgraced by him. Not to mention Lao Zhu, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, even his son Zhu Jianshen looked down upon him, which was a disgrace.

The reason why the Chongzhen Dynasty was prone to chaos was that there was a problem with the allocation of resources. The upper-class officials and gentry were profligate and the lower-class people were in danger. This led to the proliferation of refugees and constant rebellions.

"yes."

"Leave it to us to pacify Jiangnan. Zhu Qiyu is with us."

A new problem is here again!

Sun Chuanting and Lu Xiangsheng were sent to destroy Gao Yingxiang and Zhang Xianzhong respectively;

Mu Tianbo suppressed Yunnan, and Qin Liangyu was restrained by the chieftain of Sichuan;

"Let Grandpa Tai go!"

The Jin Yiwei must control the stability of the capital and cannot be mobilized; the patrol battalions are mostly old, weak, sick and disabled, and whether they can go to the battlefield is still to be considered.

"Zhu Houzhao, why do we think you have bad intentions?"

"Okay, if you're trying to flatter me, please be careful first. Let me ask you, how many troops and horses are available now?"

Seeing that no one regarded Jiangnan as a big threat, Zhu Youjian calmed down and asked, "Who should be sent to pacify Jiangnan?"

Who is willing to rebel if they can survive?

"Jiangnan poses no threat."

In the capital city today, apart from the Imperial Guards, the only troops that can be mobilized are patrol battalions.

Since ancient times, Zhu Yuanzhang is the only one who can complete the task of determining the north from the south. As for those people in the south of the Yangtze River, they drink, have fun, and talk nonsense. They are all first-rate masters, but when it comes to fighting, they are basically trash among trash, trash.

of fighter jets.

In other words, the capital has no troops that can be mobilized.

"you"

Lao Zhu understood the whole situation after thinking about it carefully. He was so angry that he had nothing to say. He didn't even know how to scold Zhu Youjian. The majestic Kyoto didn't even have the troops to mobilize for war.

Without an army, how can we suppress Jiangnan and fight with our heads?
