Chapter 358: All Parties Are Interested, Who Will Be the Commander?

Restart the fiefdom!

Although this proposal was seen by many as a step backward and caused them to debate many times, it was finally approved.

In fact, the plan of the Earthly Divine Dynasty had already been circulated in a small circle within the court. At least the elders had known about it, and they also knew the real purpose of this military expedition.

Therefore, for the success of the Earthly Divine Dynasty and for their longevity, they also chose to compromise and agreed to it.

You know, only under a heavy reward can there be a brave man.

After hundreds of years of peace, if you want the soldiers to fight hard, you have to take out some necessary things.

In their opinion, it is worth it.

Of course, these people still have some ideas in their hearts. When the Divine Dynasty becomes stronger in the future, there may be a chance to take these things back.

After all, it is not the first time in this glorious history that the king has been enfeoffed and the vassal has been reduced. It is no big deal, just a temporary compromise.

Some people with quick minds present also thought of this, but they didn't care.

Who knows what will happen in the future?

As long as there is a name and strength, everything can be preserved.

Isn't it a living example that Pei Zhenren in front of him was able to take back the Shenxiao Sect from the Ming Dynasty?

"So." Zi Tianxiong secretly calculated in his heart.

He had to admit that he was tempted by this plan.

Because no matter what others think, for him, if he can occupy a prefecture outside the pass, it is definitely a good thing without any disadvantages.

He built the foundation of Tianwang Pavilion with his bare hands, and it was not much different from those top forces in the world. The only difference was the foundation.

But who would have thought that after the revival of the world, even if he took this opportunity to improve the power of Tianwang Pavilion again, not only did he not narrow the gap, but he actually had a bigger gap with these top alliances.

And the most embarrassing point is that after so many years of development, Tianwang Pavilion has reached a bottleneck. When the small and medium-sized forces around it surrendered to him, Tianwang Pavilion has begun to border those top forces.

At this moment, Tianwang Pavilion is temporarily in a dilemma. The forces around him are all top-level. No matter which direction they develop in, they will have friction with those top forces.

If it was before the revival of the world, he would not be afraid, but now, these top forces are linked together, which makes him very wary.

And if he can take this opportunity to jump out of the cage and find a base outside the pass, it will undoubtedly be a great leap for Tianwang Pavilion.

Not only Zi Tianxiong is very interested in this.

Even Zhao Baiyang is the same.

As the initiator of the joint efforts of all parties to enter Tiandu to assassinate the emperor, although it was successful afterwards, there is no doubt that the power of Maitreya Sect suffered a great blow. I don’t know how many strongholds were eradicated, which caused him great losses.

And after this experience, he also realized one thing very clearly. If he wants to truly realize his plan, he must either have the strength to suppress the world like Pei Xuanjing, or have the power to fight against the Ming Dynasty alone. Otherwise, everything is empty talk, and changing an emperor is meaningless.

And with the current cooperation between the Taoist sect and the Ming Dynasty court, they will never let him continue to make trouble in the Central Plains. If he insists on his own way, he will inevitably be hit by the Taoist sect.

"But if I can take this opportunity to infiltrate the power outside the Great Wall, then I can seize the newly opened territory while the Ming Dynasty has not yet completely mastered it. Perhaps this is a good opportunity for me." Zhao Baiyang thought in his heart.

In short, when this plan was proposed, everyone present began to calculate how much they would have to pay and how much they could get in the next military campaign.

No one refused, because everyone thought it was a natural thing.

The original Ming Dynasty court had an absolute overwhelming force against the remnants of the former Yuan Dynasty outside the Great Wall, just because some people thought that the bitter and cold land outside the Great Wall was not worth occupying!

Now that those things have value now, all obstacles have disappeared.

With the millions of troops of the Ming Dynasty court, plus the support of these forces, it is almost certain that this expedition will win.

"If you have any questions about this, just ask, I will never hide anything." Zhu Yousong smiled.

He personally went to Mount Taihe to meet the two gods who were conferred, and he no longer had any doubts about the earthly dynasty.

As the guardian of the Ming Dynasty, he naturally wanted to see the Ming Dynasty last forever, and it was nothing to give up some things for this purpose.

He believed that no matter who was replaced by any member of the royal family, there would be no hesitation.

"I wonder who will lead the army this time?"

An incompetent general can tire out the three armies. Even if it is a battle that many people think is sure to win, if it is replaced by a foolish commander, it may not be counterproductive.

Many people present thought in their hearts: After all, the Ming Dynasty has such a living example, and no one wants to repeat the same mistake. If there is another Tumu Fort, it will be fun.

Although Zhu Yousong didn't say it directly, he couldn't help but guess what these people were thinking. This made his face stiffen. Even as a descendant, he felt ashamed of what the ancestor did, but he couldn't say it out loud.

He controlled his expression and said, "The commander this time will be the Xinjian Earl Wang Yun Wang Bo'an, who quelled the Ning Wang Rebellion. I wonder if you can rest assured!"

After Emperor Jiajing ascended the throne, since he had confirmed his goal of conquering the areas outside the Great Wall, he would naturally not turn a blind eye to Wang Bo'an, a military expert.

At the beginning, the other party was able to defeat the million-strong army of Prince Ning with only 100,000 soldiers and horses, and quelled the Prince Ning's rebellion that swept across Jiangnan in a short time. It can be seen that his military level is high. How can such a talent not be used.

Although it was said that the previous emperor treated him coldly because Wang Bo'an stole the limelight, he did not receive any reward for such a great contribution, and forced him to resign, which made Wang Bo'an a little discouraged.

But after all, he was a person who read the "Book of Sages", not to mention that the current Emperor Jiajing was not the previous emperor, so after being rewarded by Emperor Jiajing, Wang Bo'an accepted the position and entered the court again as an official.

Even if there was no announcement at this time, everyone knew that the commander this time must be Wang Bo'an.

"If so, then the big thing can be settled!"

With the record of suppressing the Ning Wang Rebellion, no one can doubt Wang Boan's military level. Some people even think that Wang Boan is worthy of being called the best commander in chief today, and can be compared with several commanders who founded the country.

So, since the commander-in-chief is Wang Boan, no one will have any doubts.
