In Shen Xi's original idea, it was not his turn to do this Northwest job.

The emperor could not have slapped himself in the face. He intended to transfer him to the northwest to serve as the governor of Yansui, but was blocked by Xie Qian and instead wanted to use Zhu Hui's title and prestige to control the three armies. So Zhu Hui became the governor of Yansui.

Now that the emperor is defeated, he needs to bear a lot of public opinion pressure on his admission of his mistakes.

It would be fine if Ma Wensheng or Zhang Mao led the troops, but he was just a young man. If he asked him to "turn the tide", he would not only have to resist other people's doubts, but also be too risky.

Now Zhu Youzing broke the secular prejudice and insisted on letting Chen Xi take on the great responsibility. Chen Xi could only understand that Xie Qian completely "selled" him, not only attributed some strategic deployments in the northwest to him, but also explained the previous judgment on the northwest Tatars going south, as well as the strategic principles that should not be adhered to, etc., to the emperor in detail.

When the emperor saw that the Xie Qing family was not the one who "planned and fought thousands of miles away", but this person was the Chen Qing family. Since he had intended to let Chen Xi go northwest to serve as the governor of Yansui, it is not too late to make up for the sheep. Let Chen Xi come out to receive this task again, perhaps he can create miracles.

So Zhu Youzing proposed to Chen Xi that he would be sent to the northwest to perform his duties.

Although the lights in the Ganqing Palace were dim, everyone was looking at Chen Xi.

The important officials present looked down on Chen Xi before, but after Xie Qian's confession, Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and Zhang Mao all looked at Chen Xi with high regard.

A young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, who had experienced two wars of great significance to the Ming Dynasty, which were even the dominant ones. He could foresee all the changes in the situation in the northwest before this year's war, and he had a clear understanding that he believed that the Tatars had not hurt the fundamentals in the internal struggles in recent years and should follow the principle of "stop the war". It would be okay to let Chen Xi lead troops to the northwest.

The worst result is that Chen Xi died in the northwest. Anyway, he would not allocate many troops to Chen Xi and let him go and try it out. Maybe he will succeed?

What these people think is "dead horses are treated as living horses". Chen Xi went to the northwest, and the worst result is that there is no result, which is unlikely to worsen the situation of the war.

But in Shen Xi's view, this was clearly because the emperor and a group of important officials in the court were jealous of his talent and foresight, and deliberately sent him to die.

Aren't you capable?

It’s useless to just talk about war on paper. Now I’ll give you a chance to make achievements for the Ming Dynasty and work hard. If you can’t complete the task, don’t come back!

Facing everyone's sympathy or teasing eyes, Chen Xi truthfully reported: "When you go back to Your Majesty, I am a little talented and knowledgeable, and I know very little about the war in the Northwest. I am afraid that I will miss the big thing, so I ask Your Majesty to find another candidate!"

Even though he knew that he shouldn't refuse, Chen Xi still couldn't accept such an order.

He exhausted his energy and won the top scorer at the age of 13. Now he is seventeen. He is doing very smoothly. As a result, when he goes to the southeast in one sentence, he will take his family to the southeast as a short marshal. He will build the team step by step with his own efforts. Even the dispatch of money and grain is borne by himself. As soon as the bandits have improved, the emperor said, "If you come back to the capital, he will have to return to the capital." Now the war situation in the northwest has deteriorated, and he may repeat the mistakes of the Tumu Fort change decades ago. Another sentence, if you go to the northwest, he will have to go to the northwest to die?"

In Shen Xi's opinion, the current situation in the northwest is that even if he gives him 200,000 troops, he may not be able to turn the tide. The Tumu Fort's transformation, Yingzong led his army to claim 500,000, but in the end he was defeated?

Although tens of thousands of troops are enough to defend the city, the winning rate of fighting against the Tatars head-on is terrible.

Zhu Youzing heard Chen Xi’s remarks and asked, “Do you have other good candidates for Chen Qing’s family?”

In front of the three cabinet ministers, as well as the ministers who led the Governor's Office and the Beijing Camp, the emperor asked who was the third-rank right deputy censor who was on duty as the candidate. Needless to say, the emperor was dissatisfied with Chen Xi's answer, and asked Chen Xi to recommend it himself.

Chen Xi said bluntly: "Ma Shangshu is still strong and has a long-term plan, so he can be the commander. Mr. Zhang rode a horse and shot, and he was the only candidate to destroy the city and the village... These are all more capable of leading troops than Weichen, and Weichen is really not qualified!"

Zhang Mao smiled: "Shen Zhongcheng is too humble. I haven't been riding on the horse for a long time. Now I'm not familiar with riding and shooting. The important task of garrison in the border will still fall on you young people!"

Zhu Youling looked at Zhang Mao expectantly, which shows that the emperor also intends to let Zhang Mao come out to take charge of the overall situation, but after hearing Zhang Mao's words, Zhu Youling immediately gave up this idea.

In the emperor's mind, the garrison around the capital was always the most important. Neither Zhang Mao nor Zhang Heling, the Marquis of Shouning, who he felt was useless, were suitable for going to war.

"I really can't find any other candidates for Chen Qing's family. You have done a great job in pacifying the bandits in the southeast. I am very satisfied with it. I summon you back to the capital to unemployed you, which is the loss of the country and the country. Now you are the governor of Yansui, holding the king's orders and flags. I specially allocated 6,000 Beijing camps to go west with you to rescue Yansui Town. It is best to take back Yulin Cang City. I will condense all my hopes on you!"

Zhu Youzhang looked at Chen Xi as if he had high hopes.

If the person who spoke was not the emperor, Chen Xi would have to curse him.

When I'm 25?

I had previously said that the Yulin Cialis, the garrison of Yansui Town, had been lost. Now I am trying to retake Yulin Cialis under the circumstances of Tatar cavalry. This is obviously a trick to the end!

Do those who become emperors don’t even explain the truth in order to put pressure on their subjects?

All the ministers present knew what it meant to encounter Tatar cavalry in the dangerous wilderness, let alone to attack the city under such pressure, which was similar to dying.

Even Chen Xi himself knew the danger, but the emperor said this and did not even have the chance to question it. Just waiting for Chen Xi to express his opinion is equivalent to being put on a seat that cannot be rejected. The emperor has already given him "all hopes". If he refuses again, the emperor will never spare him easily.

Chen Xidao: "It is probably difficult for me to be competent by my own strength!"

One sentence made Zhu Youzhe frowned, and even the ministers present were thinking, you are so ignorant, you still don’t agree with the emperor so much, do you want to die?

But after thinking about Chen Xi's words carefully, he felt that Chen Xi did not refuse, but said that he could not go alone, that is, Chen Xi wanted to second the personnel from the emperor.

Zhu Youzhi said, "Oh? Chen Qing's family, what kind of virtuous assistant do you need to recommend?"

Even the emperor blocked Yan Lu to Chen Xi, so he could only make a request for recommendation from the "Assistant Officer". He retreated without even a door.

Chen Xidao: "Weichen did not recommend it to the assistant, but when we were pacifying bandits in the southeast, there were some people around us to assist us. Weichen wanted to take these people to the northwest and serve the country!"

"Accepted!"

Zhu Youzhe originally thought it was something big, but when he heard that it was recruiting the households, the emperor felt relieved. Even if Chen Xi was suspected of being nepotism, he would have dispatched Chen Xi first and sent Chen Xi to lead his troops to die first. Chen Xi would find a few more people to be buried with him, so he would have to let Chen Xi do it, as long as the court should not allocate more personnel and money and food.

Chen Xi saluted: "Thank you Your Majesty."

Zhu Youzu sighed: "The battle in the northwest costs a lot. Now the national treasury is empty. All I can give you is 6,000 infantrymen. You can recruit troops and horses along the way to rectify the remaining soldiers. If you win this battle, I will definitely give some rewards! I hope you can serve the country, so I will thank you here!"

After saying that, Zhu Youzhang stood up with Xiao Jing's support and bowed to Chen Xi. Being able to receive the emperor's gift was already a great favor. Not only Chen Xi, but even the ministers present had to kneel down to thank him.

Chen Xi was forced to go to the forefront at this moment, so he could only kneel down and kowtow to express his determination to serve him: "I will definitely live up to your high hopes!"

But he was muttering in his heart: "Let your 18 generations of ancestors betray you! What else can you do betray people? You old Zhu family said that I was young and energetic and could not take on great responsibilities, but when I encountered danger, I first pushed me to die and gave me six thousand infantrymen. I was not the most needed cavalry. So I asked me to take these six thousand infantrymen to fight with tens of thousands of Tatar cavalry, and I also wanted to take back Yulinwei from the hands of the Tatars. Do you think I am the Monkey King and descend to earth?"

Zhu Youzhang waved his hand: "Come, give me a reward!"

After saying that, a eunuch held out with a wooden cube on it, followed by two little palace maids of seventy or eighty-eight-skinned appearance. The meaning seemed to be saying that the wooden box and the two little palace maids would be yours from now on.

Chen Xi didn't look up, but when he saw this, he felt that Zhu Youzhang was saying to him: "Chen Qing family, I will give you some rewards, and you can die more at ease!"

Chen Xi saluted again: "Your Majesty, I have not taken office yet and have not achieved any contribution, so I dare not receive rewards!"

"Okay, it's okay." Zhu Youzhang was surprisingly stingy. Chen Xi was just polite and refused to accept it. He actually saved the reward. "When Chen Qing's family accompanied Liu Shangshu to return triumphantly, I must go out of the city to greet him in person and lead the way for your family!"

What a great gift that sounds. When returning from triumphant return, the emperor will bring civil and military officials out of the city to welcome him, and will also lead him to his horse!

But to Shen Xi, he didn't feel any honor at all.

Zhu Youzhe's words were equivalent to putting new demands on him, not only to take back Yulin Cangcheng, but also to "return triumphantly" and ensure the safety of the three-sided governor Liu Daxia.

Chen Xi thought to himself: "It would be better to ask me to take six thousand infantry out of the frontier, completely annihilate the Tatars, and seal the wolf's servant!"

Zhu Youzing added: "At that time, I will give you a hundred times the reward!"

Now I will give two palace maids, plus a wooden box, a hundred times reward, which means two hundred palace maids and one hundred boxes of silver. Perhaps because of this kind of empty promise, Chen Xi has heard so much that his ears are numb and his heart is not at all disturbed.
