Chapter 478 Just after the Qixi Festival in the capital city, the weather was getting hotter and hotter, and after Wang Ge finished dinner, he enjoyed the cool on the recliner in the courtyard, drinking cold sour plum soup while chatting with Xiao Bailong."
I heard that this time the emperor drove his own expedition and defeated the Tatars outside the pass, and directly beat Arutai to the throne."
Xiao Bailong sat cross-legged next to him, muttering casually while eating fruit.This year is the eighth year of Yongle, Bai Long has grown into a slim girl, and her martial arts have made great progress, but because she has been by Wang Ge's side all these years, he is favored, obedient, behaved, and has a good personality, but it is still not much different from a few years ago.In the third year of Yongle, after Wang Ge was summoned to the capital by the emperor in the name of recuperating from his injuries, he never left.Nominally, Wang Ge is still the supreme leader of the East Factory, but in fact, after he arrived in the capital, the affairs of the East Factory were not much managed.In fact, when he was in Qingzhou, he had completely delegated power to Yin Shaoting, who was sitting in Beiping.And after he arrived in the capital, the emperor strengthened the influence of the West Factory at the same time, but also placed many people in the East Factory, even including eunuchs, Yin Shaoting in addition to being responsible for the spy work against Meng Yuan in Beiping, he did not have the ability to interfere too much in other affairs of the East Factory.Although it seems to be hollowed out, Wang Ge doesn't care at all, it seems that he is really just recuperating in the capital, and he is also completely letting go of the East Factory, and even stripping most of the "own people" except for a few people such as Yin Shaoting out of the East Factory, so that others have more space to install people and control the East Factory.As for Aunt Luo, Xie Xiaorou, Liu Hongyan and others, these were originally just "part-time jobs" with an identity, and they completely faded out of Dongchang.Of course, most of the non-staff personnel were not included in the formal management system of the East Factory.Wang Ge, who was in the shade of the tree, lay on a wicker chair, crossed his feet, squinted his eyes and looked half-asleep, and replied casually: "When a person like Arutai is a matter of life and death, let alone being called a minister, there will be no psychological barrier to calling a son a grandson.Unless they have been crushed to death, as long as their strength rises, they will still be able to do what they should do, and the Ming Dynasty will not dare to treat them as obedient courtiers. ”"You said that when you come back this time, will the emperor let you go out of the mountain again and regain control of Dongchang?"
Bai Long said with some schadenfreude: "Although this pro-campaign was won, but the intelligence was blown up by the Tatars, if you are in charge, how can this happen." ”A few years ago, Arutai took out the anger of the Mongol tribes and ascended to the throne of Khan.He originally wanted to take this opportunity to make peace with Da Ming - it was Ghost Lichi who offended you before, but now that he has been killed, I, Arutai, will be the king of Khan, so everyone will be safe, okay?
But Zhu Di's northern expedition that he had been preparing for many years would not be given up because of this, and last year, that is, in the seventh year of Yongle, the army went north by multiple routes to attack the Mengyuan Tatars.However, this northern expedition, which was overwhelmingly superior in troops, began with a crushing defeat.Because of errors in intelligence, the vanguard of the Ming army fell into the trap of the Tatar cavalry, not only did the army suffer heavy losses, but even the main general was killed, and it made Arutai have a great reputation among the Mongol and Yuan tribes.Then Zhu Di was furious, drove the expedition in person, gathered 500,000 troops, and conquered Arutai.Even so, when he was outside the gate, because of problems with intelligence, he almost overturned, if it weren't for Zhu Di's long-term battle, his subordinates were all elite who dared to fight, and the troops were absolutely crushed, not to mention the big defeat and loss, it was very possible for the emperor to return without success this time.Therefore, Zhu Di was very dissatisfied with Yin Shaoting and Liang Qiming, who were in charge of spy intelligence affairs in the north this time, and Liang Qiming was almost directly beheaded by Zhu Di.Wang Ge said: "No, you underestimate our majesty too much.Moreover, this time it is not that the intelligence spy organization of the Ming Dynasty cannot deal with the Mengyuan Tatars, and it is purely their own death. ”Wang Ge knows very well that a few years ago, he purged Meng Yuan's spy in Beijing and Beiping, and the large-scale purge of Meng Yuan's spy intelligence system against Daming was basically paralyzed, not to mention that Yin Shaoting is not an incompetent person who eats a corpse meal, even if the current Dongchang has been greatly "shrunk" compared to Wang Ge's era, even without the help of Jinyiwei, relying on Yin Shaoting alone, it is impossible to repeatedly make major mistakes in the intelligence system.In the final analysis, in fact, the problems that arose in the intelligence of this Northern Expedition were the commander's carelessness and underestimation of the enemy, and the other most important reason was the infighting between Dongchang and Jinyiwei, especially the careful thinking of Liang Qiming, the commander of Jinyiwei, which caused many situations that could have been avoided.Yin Shaoting this time, it can be said that he was completely taken into the pit by his pig teammates.However, even if Liang Qiming was not directly cut by Zhu Di this time, he was basically abolished after he came back, and it is estimated that Jin Yiwei will be completely on the throne in the future.After listening to Wang Ge's words, Bai Long pursed his lips: "Then when can we leave the capital?"
It's been a few years, and I'm always staying in the capital, and I'm bored in the house, it's really boring......"
"Huh?
I see you were still playing cards with Phoenix and Qing'er until midnight yesterday?
Isn't that fun?
”The cards in Wang Ge's mouth are the variants he made based on playing cards, and it is very suitable for a few girls to relieve boredom.Bai Long, who has a superior IQ, is very good at playing cards."
What a fun thing, you will get tired of playing it for a long time!
Why don't you get something new to play with, or a new story?
”Xiao Bailong said with some expectation.Wang Ge turned over on the bench and turned his back to her: "It's gone!"
You've drained my inventory in the past few years~!
If you're really bored, then go back to Qingzhou. ”As soon as he heard this, Bai Long stopped talking, pursed his lips, and then threw grapes at his head.Obviously, although she said that it was boring to stay in the capital, it would be impossible for her to leave Wang Ge and return to Qingzhou.In fact, in the past few years, Wang Ge has stayed in the capital, not simply to relax, most of his time has been thinking about the mystery of internal strength and true qi - even now when he is enjoying the shade on the recliner and chatting with Bai Long, it is no exception.A few years after crossing and being reborn into this world, after coming into contact with internal force and true qi, Wang Ge realized that this may be the key point to find out why he is here—because whether this world is real history or another parallel world that has nothing to do with the original world, internal force and true qi are one of the biggest points of difference.
