After Zhu Youjian returned to the palace, he received a message from the commander of Datong Town, Yan Yingyuan.
Lin Danhan showed signs of heading south to Datong. He had already found out that many of Lin Danhan's scouts were in Datong to survey the terrain and deploy their forces.
The reason was very laughable. It turned out that Da Ming did not pay this year's reward.
Zhu Youjian knew about this, but he directly erased it.
Datong Town and Xuanfu Town opened their markets to the tribes beyond the Great Wall, especially the large-scale trading point, Zhang Jiakou Fort, which solved all of Lin Danhan's problems.
However, Lin Danhan wanted to freeload. Everyone had the same opinion on Slave Jian, and they all had the same enemy.
However, Lin Danhan didn't put in any effort, and when the war between Da Ming and Slave Jian broke out, she just stood by and watched.
Zhu Youjian didn't want to be a sucker, nor did he want to be treated as a traitor by Lin Danhan!
"Does this coward think that Big Ming is weak and easy to bully?”
Zhu Youjian was furious. If the farm in the system had not expanded by more than 20,000 mu, he would have eaten this pile of shit.
The situation was stronger than the person. Those who should endure should endure, and those who should pretend to be grandsons should pretend to be grandsons.
Sun Chengzong, Yuan Keli, Cao Wenzhao, Wei Zhongxian, Huang Liji, and Shi Fenglai were all in the hall, not daring to breathe loudly.
He had never seen the emperor so angry, not even in the rebellion case.
"Your Majesty, Lin Danhan's life isn't good either!" Huang Liji smiled bitterly.
Especially after Horqin, Nekarka, Duoyan and the other tribes had joined Jian Nu, his days were even worse.
Now, they were relying on Da Tong and Xuanfu Town's trade to feed their tribe.”
Zhu Youjian sneered," But they don't want to sell their warhorses. Are they partners?" You don't want to sell warhorses, you only want to trade with cattle and sheep, and you want to ask for a reward from me?”
"It's really difficult for Da Ming to buy warhorses from the Tartars and Slave Jian! The ones that were truly sold to the Great Ming Warhorses were all small tribes.
If it wasn't for the fact that these small tribes were sandwiched between the three major forces and it was becoming more and more difficult to survive, they wouldn't have sold their warhorses to Da Ming.”
Sun Chengzong knew very well that those Tartars who had truly submitted to the Ming Dynasty had already perished in the few wars that had been launched after Slave Jian's rise.
They were either destroyed by Slave Jian or annexed by other tribes.
Da Ming had long lost his hardcore Tartars outside the Great Wall. If he wanted to buy warhorses, it would be extremely difficult!
Moreover, most of the warhorses that Da Ming bought were given to the Liaodong troops to form a mobile force like the Guanning Cavalry.
This troop now had about 20,000 cavalrymen under Yuan Chonghuan's command.
Lin Danhan just wanted to treat Da Ming as a sucker so that he could solve his internal problems.
He had always wanted to unify the tribes of the North, West, and South Desert, and then fight Slave Jian to the death to decide who was the true emperor of the desert.
"Lin Danhan is dreaming. He asked for whatever he lacked from Great Ming, but Great Ming refused to give him the warhorses he lacked?”
Zhu Youjian didn't know why Da Ming agreed.
In any case, he was the one who had the final say in Da Ming now. He would definitely not be a sucker. At the same time, Lin Danhan was also coveting Da Ming.
He often plundered the border, and his work was no less than Slave Jian's.
He now had more than 40 million points of income a month, and at the same time, he still had 100,000 unused slots for the system soldiers. He could afford to play and fight.
Sun Chengzong, Yuan Keli, Huang Liji, and Shi Fenglai all chose to compromise and temporarily appease them.
It wouldn't be too late to make a decision after the Empire's army finished their training.
At least the four old officials felt that Great Ming was not lacking in the tens of thousands of taels of silver, nor was he lacking in the grain, salt, and iron. They could give him this year's reward.
"I know what all of you are thinking. You think that the Great Ming's treasury is full this year and can stabilize Lin Danhan first.”
After saying that, Zhu Youjian's face darkened and he said coldly,""However, my things are not so easy to take. I have to exchange them with Slave Jian's head.
He didn't do anything and wanted to eat for free. I would rather feed these things to dogs than feed such an ingrate.”
"Your Majesty, I support the war!" Cao Wenzhao said.
Yan Yingyuan and Lu Xiangsheng each commanded 100,000 troops, and His Majesty had also given them 20,000 elite soldiers to serve as low-level officers, which was enough to deal with Lin Danhan.”
Everyone now understood that each of the capital's three guards had 30,000 soldiers, so there were a total of 90,000 system main city soldiers.
The 300,000-strong Jiangnan camp that Sun Chuanting had secretly built required 50,000 system main city soldiers, while Zhou Yuji had 20,000.
Zhu Youjian alone had exchanged 200,000 system soldiers, they were truly elites!
All the officials in the hall understood that the Emperor was ambitious to form 900,000 troops. This was the rhythm of expanding the territory.
As for the local warlords in Liaodong, they had been confused by Zhu Youjian's actions.
The local warlords in Daming Pass were all transferred by Zhu Youjian to Yuan Chonghuan's side, with a total of 200,000 troops.
As long as they were not famous in history and were traitors, they were all transferred to Yuan Chonghuan by Zhu Youjian.
He directly let Yuan Tutu lead them. As long as they did not surrender, Yuan Tutu could do whatever she wanted.
Of course, Yuan Tutu, who didn't understand the mystery, was grateful to the emperor in Liaodong.
After all, Tian Zi truly believed in him. He even provided them with ten million dan of food every year and prepared 400,000 sets of equipment for them. He also gave them five million taels of silver every year.
Other than his trusted troops, he also allocated six to seven million yuan to Yuan Tutu and Mao Wenlong from Liaodong and Pidao.
The total expenditure would not exceed thirty million taels of silver every year. He could afford it.
Especially with the sudden increase in food, he didn't lack food at all. Otherwise, he wouldn't have used food to scam Fan Yong Dou and Huang Taiji.
"If Lin Danhan wants to fight, I will accompany you to the end. If not, we can trade.
However, weapons, equipment, and food had to be traded with gold or silver. There would not be such a thing as freeloading now, and there would not be such a thing in the future!”
Zhu Youjian looked at Sun Chengzong and said,""Minister Sun, it seems that you will have to go to Datong and Xuan Mansion to be the supervisor and supervise Lu Xiangsheng and Yan Yingyuan to prepare for war.
From now on, Da Ming will no longer bow to any Tartar or Jian Nu.
Especially Lin Danhan, this trash. If he wanted Great Ming's resources and military supplies, Great Ming could package the equipment that the Empire had eliminated and sell them to him.
However, the price must not be the market price. It must be increased by 50%, and the transaction must be gold and silver.”
In fact, Ming Dynasty was not lacking in cattle and sheep trading. Zhu Youjian had already promoted the breeding of chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cattle, and sheep in Huangzhuang!
In terms of Slave Jian, Da Ming and Lin Danhan, who was the richest? Lin Danhan, the Golden Family, was definitely the richest.
Back then, the Gold Family had plundered an unknown amount of wealth. The initial estimate was that the gold was at least fifty to sixty million taels, and the silver was as high as hundreds of millions of taels.
It was better to let him control it than to leave it in the treasury.
The Ming Empire was about to establish an Imperial Royal Bank, and urgently lacked silver and gold as reserves.
Zhu Youjian had spent a lot of money to exchange for talents in agriculture. He had already solved the meat problem in the army.
Moreover, the meat supply chain of the Imperial Manor and the imperial army had been completed. The meat in the hands of the commoners would not have to worry about not having a market!
Zhu Youjian didn't think it was difficult to increase the quality of life and loyalty of the common people. After all, he was a cheater!
Moreover, Zhu Youjian had already taken initial control of the northern regime and was completely under the command of his civil and military officials.
The system soldiers had already exchanged over 200,000 points, so they were not afraid of fighting against the Tartars and Jian Nu.
Sending Sun Chengzong to Da Tong and Xuan Manor was also a precaution.
In Zhu Youjian's opinion, it was not difficult to deal with Khan Lin.
In history, Lin Danhan had indeed invaded Da Tong and plundered it.
He never thought that Lin Danhan would be honest enough to trade with Da Ming!
Lin Danhan needed all kinds of living materials and military materials from the Ming Empire, and the Ming Empire needed the gold, silver, and war horses from Lin Danhan's family.
Only by hurting Lin Danhan would she obediently become a snitch and become his pawn to control the desert.
