Chapter 1490 Fight or defend

Zhang Jing glanced at everyone, knowing that everyone was just worried about being held accountable after the incident, he sneered contemptuously, and slowly said: "Everyone, Yingtian is my companion capital of the Ming Dynasty. , You also know how much impact this matter has. Since we eat the king's salary, we should be loyal to the king. No matter who it is, there is no exception! Today, everyone is called to come to the meeting, everyone, please speak freely, and don't worry about being punished for your words. We brainstormed, worked together, and discussed countermeasures, and the final decision is our joint decision, and all the results are shared by us, of course, this official, He Zhenshou, and Wei Guogui will bear the primary responsibility."

Hearing that Zhang Jing said that he would not be convicted for his words, all the officials couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and spoke up one after another.

"The so-called soldiers will block the water and cover them with soil. If the Japanese pirates come, then send troops out of the city to destroy the Japanese. We have big camps, small school camps, Shenji camps, patrol camps, Xinjiangkou camps and other Beijing camps. There are no fewer soldiers. One hundred thousand, the so-called raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a while, this time select elite soldiers and strong generals from the camps, and go out of the city to destroy the Japanese."

"That's it, and on the battlefield, I'm afraid that laymen will command experts. In my opinion, the Ministry of War and your Beijing camp experts are the ones to decide on the matter of destroying the Japanese. We laymen, let's beat the side drums and fight in Yingtian City." Li fully cooperates with you, cheers for you, and waits for your triumphant return."

"What do you mean? It means that the killing of Japanese pirates is our business and has nothing to do with you, right?!"

"No, we should cooperate inside and outside. You experts go out of the city to destroy Japanese, and we laymen beat drums and wave flags in the city."

"Go out of the city to destroy the Japanese? Hehe, you said you are laymen, but you are really laymen. It is very wrong to go out of the city to destroy the Japanese. These Japanese bandits are very brave. I think it is best to defend the city with all your strength."

"Defend the city with all your strength?! Shameful, shameful! The Japanese pirates in Shangyu are only fifty or sixty people. I have a hundred thousand defenders in the sky. On weekdays, all the nobles and cavalry of the military academy swarm the road, and the soldiers pay monthly to my household. Asking for no less than 80,000 food, the so-called raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a while, the imperial salary, food and grass to support you, isn't it for today?! Fifty or sixty thugs knocked on the door, and you waited for a hundred thousand defenders, and you dared to only defend the city?! "

"What do you know? How can there be 100,000 defenders? Today, there are only 6,000 soldiers in the Dajiaochang Battalion, 9,100 soldiers in the Small Jiaochang Battalion, and 2,500 soldiers in the Shenji Battalion. There are only 3,600 soldiers in the patrol battalion, and 5,800 soldiers in the Xinjiangkou Battalion... We should have a total of more than 30,000 but less than 40,000 soldiers ready to fight."

"Is more than 30,000 less?! There are only more than 50 Japanese pirates!"

"Although this Japanese is rare, it is very Japanese! Three days ago, when the meeting was held to discuss the punishment of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the inspector and secretary, Zhu Pingan, Mr. Zhu once said that this Japanese is extremely brave and has a good combat power."

"Hehe, you still have the face to mention Master Zhu. If you had paid attention to Master Zhu's emergency military situation back then, why did you come to this day! Three days ago, Master Zhu reminded the Japanese pirates in Shangyu that they would harass Yingtian, and suggested dispatching troops and laying an ambush on the way. As a result, you took Mr. Zhu and Mr. Zhu's emergency military situation as a joke, ha ha, now, let's see who is a joke now! If Mr. Zhu's suggestion was adopted at the beginning, this group of Japanese pirates would have been wiped out long ago. Why? As for Jiang Ning being defeated and Ying Tian being attacked?!"

"Again, you're never finished. It's too late to say anything now, yes, yes, we regretted it, regretted it at the beginning, regretted that we didn't listen to Master Zhu's words, but what can we do! Now that the Japanese pirates have come, Whether it is to go out of the city to destroy the Japanese, or to shut the city behind closed doors, hurry up and come up with a charter."

The scene of the meeting started to become noisy again.

The main points of controversy among the people are "fighting" or "defending", and who should bear the responsibility of defending the Japanese.

Shi Pengfei, the right servant of the Ministry of War, was very red, smelly and embarrassed.

In this meeting, he has heard more than once someone mention Zhu Pingan's emergency military situation three days ago.

At the meeting three days ago, Zhu Pingan reported the emergency military situation, which was mainly rejected by him. He laughed at Zhu Pingan for worrying about the sky, leading the trend of laughing at Zhu Pingan and treating Zhu Pingan and his emergency military situation as a joke.

Also, when the conference was taking a break, Mr. Zhang Jingzhang stopped him and asked him to pay due attention to and study Zhu Pingan's emergency military situation. Just a mouthful.

Even Wuhu Capital Censor and Jianyangwei and other coalition forces were defeated by the Japanese pirates. He also told Zhang Shangshu that although the Shangyu Japanese pirates won this time, it was a miserable victory. They lost 20 or 30 people, which is no longer enough. With the ability to siege cities and do evil, this group of Japanese pirates is no longer a concern, and they have no choice but to escape.

Who would have thought that the slap in the face came so quickly, and the Shangyu Japanese pirates with only fifty-seven people left actually killed Yingtian!

Slap in the face!

I was embarrassed at first, but these people kept mentioning Zhu Pingan over and over again. It's really a pot that doesn't boil!

At the conference meeting, Yu Dayou stood in the corner, watching with cold eyes a group of officials who were prevaricating and arguing, and despised them. What is there to discuss? More than 50 Japanese pirates came to attack, and they were sitting on more than 30,000 soldiers. It is ridiculous to dare to go out of the city to destroy the Japanese, and my thoughts have returned to the meeting three days ago. The moment Zhu Pingan reported the emergency military situation, I thought that the emergency military situation reported by Zhu Pingan was too unbelievable, and I couldn't help but despise Zhu in my heart. My lord, looking at it now, I am really ashamed, I have been in the army for more than thirty years in vain! Master Zhu deserves to be the No. 1 Scholar, he is so amazing, he actually predicted three days in advance that the Japanese pirates from Shangyu would attack Yingtian! In the midst of strategizing, decisive victory thousands of miles away, you are talking about people like Mr. Zhu, he is really a fearsome young man!

Zhang Jing also looked coldly at the audience's discussion. After hearing that the crowd tended to defend the city with all their strength, he couldn't help but knocked on the table, glanced at the crowd with a serious face, shook his head and said, "Everyone, defend the city with all your strength, no!"

"Why?" The official who advocated full defense of the city couldn't help asking.

"Why? Hehe, the year before last, the northern capital of Shuntian was besieged by the Tatars. How did the capital do?! What happened afterwards?" Zhang Jing sneered and glanced at the crowd. Wan, in the face of Tatar soldiers and horses, the generals did not dare to fight, and someone also asked the generals to stand firm and not fight. As a result, more than 100,000 troops sat and watched the Tatar soldiers and horses looting outside the city. Later, although the Tatars retreated, the capital was unharmed , but for me, Ming Dynasty, and for the Holy Majesty, it is also a great shame and humiliation. Ding Rukui, Minister of the Ministry of War, was executed, and many people were fined! Now, the Japanese pirates from Shangyu are attacking and staying in Yingtian. Burning, killing and looting outside the city?! The lessons learned by Ding Rukui and others are still there, and you are going to repeat the same mistakes?! Could it be that you are fooling the Holy One?!"

"what?!"

All the officials who advocated defending the city with all their might were shocked into a cold sweat when they heard the words.

Yes, the Tatar soldiers invaded the capital the year before last, and the capital defended it with all its strength. It was a great shame and humiliation to sit and watch the Tatar soldiers and horses plunder the Holy Majesty outside the city, and ordered to behead Ding Rukui, the minister of the Ministry of Defense who was in charge of the defense at that time. Many officials were implicated and severely punished by the Holy Majesty. a lot! Yingtian is staying in the capital, and now the Japanese invaders are invading Yingtian, and the severity of the nature is not much different from Alta's invading the capital!

Ding Rukui and others have taught me the lesson!

If you commit another crime this time, it will be the second time! The holy majesty's fury of thunder must be even worse than the year before!

Indeed, defending the city with all your strength will fail!
