Chapter 1890 Intimidating Messenger
"Wait until Uncle Hanwang comes back and take a look."
The purpose of Zhu Zhanji's picnic is to let Zhu Quan let go of his caution. At this time, Zhu Quan is already drunk, and it's just the right time.
"If it is possible to go overseas, future feudal lords who are willing and capable can go out."
After Zhu Zhanji finished speaking, he waved his hands. Two strong eunuchs came over and looked at Zhu Quan.
Zhu Quan got up suddenly, opened his mouth to speak but stopped, then nodded, followed the two eunuchs back.
In terms of ability, although Zhu Quan is far inferior to Zhu Di, he may be a few streets ahead of the current vassal kings.
"Are you thinking about splitting up the vassals again?"
When Fang Xing saw that Zhu Zhanji had found the last chicken kidney, he couldn't help but want to grab it.
Chicken kidneys are tender and glutinous, and it is said that they have some indescribable effects. It is a good thing for Fang Xing, who has three wives and concubines.
Zhu Zhanji savored the taste of chicken kidneys, and said slowly: "Fang Zheng opened the way for the natives in Myanmar, and they are already close to Siam."
"The Siamese did it first?"
Fang Xing only felt that the blood was gradually rising, so he couldn't help but picked up the flagon and drank freely.
There was more excitement in Zhu Zhanji's eyes, "Fang Zheng and the others died down, and the Siamese spies were arrested batch after batch..."
The Siamese had been coveting that piece of land for a long time, but their spies met the Ming scouts with the cooperation of the natives.
The two sides were constantly entangled, and the Siamese scouts took advantage of a lot at first, and gradually the Ming scouts also adapted to jungle warfare, and the postures of the two sides gradually deflected, and the Siamese suffered heavy casualties and were unable to advance an inch.
Afterwards, Fang Zheng remained calm, but the Siamese became angry and sent an army of more than 3,000 people in, and Fang Zheng took it all in one go.
Fang Zheng was not dormant, he was waiting for this opportunity, so he decisively raised his army and approached Siam.
At present, the Ming army has entered the territory of Siam, and small-scale battles are very frequent.
...
Just when Fang Xing was thinking about whether he could collect all the land of Siam and connect the two outlets to the sea, the messenger came, and at the same time brought an unlucky guy.
"Master Zhang, Xing Hebo, this is the Siamese envoy."
A small official from the Ministry of Rites brought a black and thin man to the Ministry of War.
Fang Xing was talking about Siam with Zhang Ben, Minister of the Ministry of War, when they saw the man, they both sneered.
Zhang Ben said coldly: "Do you know the Ming language?"
The messenger skillfully clasped his hands and said, "Yes."
"Then why did the Siamese army cross the border?"
The clerk from the Ministry of Rituals winked at Fang Xing, indicating that Zhang Ben had spoken too much.
God is sorry to see, an army of more than 3,000 people is just a sentinel for Daming, not even a vanguard. Zhang Ben actually used the name Dajun, which is really speechless.
Fang Xing turned a blind eye to this, and the envoy said loudly, "That's treason. The country has captured those who fled back and their heads are outside the city."
I say!
Fang Xing cursed secretly, and Zhang Ben was also a little disappointed, so he said, "Siam is at fault for this, so this is the only apology?"
The envoy said in amazement: "The head of the traitor is just outside the city, and the letter of apology from the lord of the humble country has reached His Majesty..."
"It's not enough!"
Fang Xing shook his head, and said in the envoy's despairing eyes: "That is Daming's place, your scouts went deep many times, and then the army made a surprise attack. This is not treason. Rebellion doesn't have that much courage!"
Zhang Ben is sixty years old, he looked like a little old man, he stroked his beard and praised: "What Xing Hebo said is right, if Daming's place is allowed to invade by outsiders, then who will take Daming seriously in the future?! "
The envoy looked at the little official of the Ministry of Rites with pleading eyes, and the little official coughed dryly: "That is Uncle Xinghe."
"Xing Hebo?"
The messenger blurted out in despair: "But that demon god..."
After finishing speaking, the messenger regretted it.
Zhang Ben pretended to be angry with Fang Xing and said: "You have killed too much outside and caused panic among foreigners, that's not good."
How can someone who can be the minister of the Ministry of War be so weak!
Fang Xing smiled and said: "Unexpectedly, Fang's bandit account spread like wildfire.
Your envoy was shocked. "
The envoy forced a smile and said, "My lord..."
"There is no room for discussion on this matter. Your envoy will wait for the decision of the court."
Zhu Zhanji asked people to bring the envoy to Zhang Ben, because he wanted to make the matter more serious first.
Zhang Ben saw off the guest with a stern face, and the messenger almost wanted to kneel down, but the clerk of the Ministry of Rites held him firmly, and then called the people from the Ministry of War to help, and finally pulled him out.
"Uncle Xing, attacking by land is not an option."
Zhang Ben was a clean and honest official, so clean that it was outrageous that he was nicknamed "Poor Zhang".
Fang Xing nodded and said: "Yes, if you attack by land, the price you have to pay is too high, it will take a long time, and the supply line is too long."
Zhang Ben was surprised and said: "When I was in Jinling, I was friendly with Xing and Bo Yuan, but I heard that you were domineering. Recently, people said that your wife is also very powerful. I didn't expect that when I saw you today, she was peaceful. It shows how unreliable the rumors are. "
Even Zhu Di was full of praise for this old man, Zhu Gaochi also praised him many times, and even Zhu Zhanji entrusted him with a heavy responsibility, which shows his good character.
Fang Xing said helplessly: "Master Zhang, there are many things you can't do if you are peaceful! Just say that last time in Jinling, those businessmen were making a fuss. If they are peaceful, where is the prestige?"
Zhang Ben stood up and said, "Uncle Xinghe, dinner is about to come, your family has a big business, I can't afford to invite you!"
This person actually issued an order to evict guests?
Although Fang Xing's notoriety spread far and wide, few people dared to chase away the guests. Today, Zhang Ben was the first of its kind.
Seeing that there were patches on Zhang Ben's inner shirt, Fang Xing said cheekily, "Master Zhang, since you said that Fang's family has a big business and can't be overwhelmed, why don't you give Fang a treat at noon?"
Zhang Ben said with a straight face: "Thank you Xing Hebo for your kindness, I appreciate it."
Fang Xing left the military department in despair, and only then remembered a rumor.
It is said that when Zhang Ben went to a banquet in the palace, Zhu Di put a silver cup in front of everyone, saying that he could take it home after the banquet, but Zhang Ben had a pottery cup in front of him. Everyone was stunned, but Zhu Di explained that Zhang Ben was poor, and it was useless to take silverware.
The things bestowed by the emperor cannot be exchanged for money. This is the greatest compliment to Zhang Ben.
Fang Xing ate a meal of pot stickers outside, and then entered the palace again.
At the moment, there are both civil and military personnel in the palace, and Zhu Zhanji ordered to hang a map on a wooden stand and put it in the middle of the hall.
"You didn't even have lunch?"
When Fang Xing came in, he subconsciously asked a question, and gained a lot of contempt. Jin Youzi even said mockingly: "Uncle Xing has oil on his lips, which shows that lunch is good!"
Zhu Zhanji frowned and said, "There is something to talk about!"
Jin Youzi cupped his hand to plead guilty, Fang Xing came in with a smile.
At this time, a circle of people surrounded the map, and Zhu Yong was making a speech.
"Your Majesty, only 50,000 people are needed. If I can't take Siam, I will throw myself into the sea!"
Zhu Yong was so eager to make contributions that he even pushed Zhang Fu aside. He pointed at the junction of Burma and Siam with his thick fingers, and said confidently: "As long as we get through here, I can lead the cavalry to fight all the way to their capital, and then capture their king alive, and the rest of the place will be destroyed." It can be passed down!"
Zhang Fu is not easy to fight, he glanced at Meng Ying, Meng Ying said: "Mr. Cheng, it's not so easy to fight over there, if not, you will be deep in the mud, and then it will be the second cochin. "
Zhu Yong patted the shelf where the map was hung, stared at him, and said, "I will kill anyone who dares to take credit with me, and he said: "What Jiaozhi? Jiaozhi is now a chief envoy of Ming Dynasty!"
Fang Xing, who had been silent all this time, said, "It's not easy to fight there, and it will be very difficult to deal with it."
In the Ministry of War, he and Zhang could have threatened the envoys, but on the way into the palace, Fang Xing carefully thought about Siam, and then remembered the long supply line.
In the angry eyes of those Wu Xun, Fang Xing's fingers crossed from Yunnan to Myanmar, and then to Siam, and then said: "Myanmar is newly settled, and I have to rely on Yunnan for supplies. Siam, where do you get supplies?"
This pot of cold water was poured over the heads of the eager warriors, and Zhu Zhanji gradually became sad when he saw the eyes of these warriors.
"Where's the sailor?"
Zhu Yong was unwilling to give up this opportunity, he felt that he was already hairy all over his body, and if he didn't go out to fight, his whole body would be decadent.
