As soon as Xu Jie's voice fell, everyone immediately quarreled.
"Grand Secretary Xu, Xu Feng, the commander of the Ji Prefecture, is currently training his soldiers in the Ji Prefecture.”
"No, Ji Prefecture is one of the Nine Towns and is extremely important.
General Xu, guarding Shanhaiguan is extremely important."
"If Shanhai Pass's defenses are lax and the Tartars occupy it, the capital will be in danger!!!”
"You mustn't! Liaodong was far away from Tartar, and the climate of the grassland was complex and changeable. If anything happened, Liaodong would be in danger!”
"Grand Elder Xu, if you follow my suggestion, why don't we give Zheng Jimin five hundred thousand taels of silver?”
"Ask General Zheng to recruit soldiers and purchase more western cannons.”
"If the defense is tight, the Tartars will not dare to invade.”
Hearing this, Xu Jie nodded and said,"
"We can only do this now. We can mobilize troops from other places to quench our thirst.”
"I only hope that Zheng Jimin will not disappoint His Majesty. I will draft a memorial and allocate five hundred thousand taels to Da Tong Prefecture.”
"We must ensure the autumn harvest of Da Tong Prefecture this year…This is related to the rations of hundreds of thousands of people!”
The granary of Da Tong Prefecture had already been raided by the Tartars once. With the remaining grain, Da Tong Prefecture had survived the first calamity.
However, there was not much food left. All the officials and people in Datong Prefecture were waiting for the autumn harvest…
If the autumn harvest was plundered by the Tatars again, there would be a famine in Da Tong Prefecture!
——
Zhu Zaihou sat on the dragon couch and checked the automatic check-in system.
[Host: Zhu Zaihou]
Age: 13 years old.
[Country: Ming Empire]
1.25 million soldiers. Li Chengliang of Liaodong led 120,000 troops to guard Liaodong, Xu Feng of Jizhou led 150,000 troops, Zheng Jimin of Datong led 100,000 troops to guard Datong, and Gu Linjian of Guangdong and Guangxi led 300,000 troops to guard the south.
The Great Ming Empire had a territory of 8.8 million square kilometers.
Tartar: 3,200,000 troops, 600,000 reserve troops.
The Jurchen tribe had a national strength of 500,000 and a reserve of 120,000 troops.
Chao Moss: The national strength is one million, and the reserve army is 200,000.
Japan: 2,500,000 troops, 500,000 reserve troops.
……
Thinking of this, Zhu Zaihou opened the talent column.
Civil officials and generals had distinct attributes. Xu Jie and Zhang Juzheng had very high political and intellectual attributes.
However, their strength and leadership were frighteningly low.
However, their political and intellectual attributes were quite amazing…
Just as Zhu Zaihou was checking the talent column.
He was surprised to find that the system had the option to search for famous generals.
Just as Zhu Zaihou was pondering over the system, the system notification suddenly sounded.
Special Military Intelligence Alert! The Tartar tribe was restless, and 300,000 cavalry gathered.
Boom!
Zhu Zaihou was shocked!
300,000 cavalry!
At this moment, footsteps could be heard outside Yangxin Palace Hall. Chen Hong ran in from outside.
"Your Majesty, Grand Secretary Xu has sent a memorial.”
Zhu Zaihou closed the system, and Chen Hong handed over Xu Jie's memorial.
After Zhu Zaihou opened the memorial, his expression changed drastically.
The autumn harvest in Datong Prefecture is approaching.
Xu Jie hoped that the imperial court would allocate 500,000 taels of silver to Datong General Zheng Jimin to prevent the Tartar cavalry from taking advantage of the situation.
"Allow!"
"Yes!"
Chen Hong didn't dare to delay. After drafting the imperial edict, he returned to the inner court.
The cabinet quickly began to operate, and Lu Jun 'an, the head of the Ministry of War, brought the imperial edict to Datong Prefecture.
He was distributing silver in the banks of Da Tong Prefecture.
The Ming Empire's bank system had already been perfected. As long as one carried silver notes, they could mobilize the money from the various banks.
After Chen Hong left, Zhu Zaihou broke out in cold sweat.
After checking the state of the troops stationed in various places, he felt uneasy.
Datong Prefecture commanded 100,000 troops, Xuan Prefecture Commander Fan Quanfu commanded 120,000 troops, Liaodong Li Chengliang commanded 100,000 troops…
It looked like there were a lot of people, but these soldiers were all stationed in defense.
On the other hand, the Tartar cavalry gathered quickly and ferociously.
The Ming army might not be able to resist…
Now that the cabinet was sending money to Da Tong Prefecture, Da Tong Prefecture was probably in big trouble…
