The Ming Dynasty: The most ruthless imperial grandson, Old Zhu begged me not to kill him.

Chapter 314 The Troublesome Jurchen

When Consort Lü heard that Zhu Xiong Ying had given Zhu Yunwen such great power and position, she was furious. This Zhu Xiong Ying was truly always making trouble for her, even giving Zhu Yunwen such great power. Could this guy possibly be above Jia Yunwen? Thinking of this, she felt extremely resentful. It was definitely impossible to beg Zhu Xiong Ying; Zhu Xiong Ying would never make an enemy for her at this time.

After arriving at this place, he wondered if he could use the power of his maternal family, the Lü family, to arrange an official position for his son.

His son was so outstanding that if he were to become an official, he would definitely hold a very good position. Thinking of this, he felt a surge of excitement. Yes, that's exactly what should be done.

With that in mind, he went directly to his maternal family, the Lü family.

At this time, in addition to Yingtian Prefecture, the situation in Liaodong had also changed significantly, and Zhu Xiong Ying brought many officials with him.

The development of Liaodong brought together many officials and even a large number of migrants who were developing the local land.

When they arrived at Zhizhu in Liaodong, they began to inspect the land there. Sure enough, it was exactly as the Grandson had said; the land was indeed very suitable for cultivation.

This delighted them. Even the Central Plains couldn't compare to this place, and they might even be able to obtain more food.

So they began to develop the area, and the people of the various tribes in Liaodong were all amazed when they saw this.

"Why do these people from the Central Plains never forget farming, no matter where they are? Do they even want to farm in this place?"

The people's eyes were full of disdain. If it were anywhere else, farming wouldn't be such a big problem, but this was all a vast grassland, where their ancestors had grazed their livestock for generations. Could they possibly farm here? At this moment, several tribal leaders gathered together and whispered among themselves.

"These people are farming on our land, which is an insult to us. Why don't we attack their territory, teach them a little lesson, and burn all their farmland down!"

Upon hearing this, the men couldn't help but smile.

"This is a good opportunity!"

"good idea!"

At this moment, a tribal chief standing nearby spoke with an icy expression.

"I suggest we avoid such underhanded tactics!"

"We just offended the Ming Dynasty, and it's already a great relief that they haven't sent troops to attack us. If we anger them now and they send troops to fight us, do you think we'd be a match for them?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that it was indeed true that the Ming Dynasty was very powerful, much stronger than them.

If you really provoke them, the consequences will be unimaginable.

The fact that the Ming Dynasty didn't punish them before doesn't mean that the Ming Dynasty lacked the ability to eliminate them.

At that moment, someone said with a smile.

"Actually, we don't need to care about these things at all. Don't we know in our hearts whether this land is arable or not?"

"I think these people will ultimately achieve nothing and will be of no use!"

After listening, everyone nodded. They figured that once the people of the Ming Dynasty could no longer farm in this place, they would give up, so they stopped worrying about it.

However, Liaodong was not peaceful at this time.

The various tribes on the grasslands were restless, especially the Jurchen tribe in the north, which began to rise. The Jurchen tribe was originally a very small tribe that had always been subjugated by the Mongol army. However, after the fall of the Mongols, they began to expand in all directions. They had little other ability besides hunting and fishing, and the rest of their life consisted of plundering. This led to their development speed being much faster than that of other tribes.

During this period, they continued to plunder in the north, which greatly affected not only the Ming Dynasty but also various Mongol tribes.

At first, the Ming army in Liaodong merely drove them away. Later, these guys went too far and even destroyed their farmland in Liaodong. The generals stationed there could no longer tolerate it and prepared to wipe them out completely.

When Zhu Xiong Ying learned of this, she couldn't help but frown.

Previously, in order to deal with the Mongols and suppress the Goryeo and other countries in the east, the Jurchens were directly supported. As a result, these Jurchens gradually grew stronger and caused a catastrophe in the Central Plains.

Now that I have changed everything, I will never let such a thing happen again.

The Jurchens' power was not particularly strong; to them, it was at most a minor nuisance.

Since that's the case, let's just wipe them out completely, so they have no chance of growing stronger. We can also use this opportunity to test which Mongol tribes are truly loyal to us.

After thinking of this place, he immediately issued an order to Hua Yunlong, who was stationed in Liaodong, to contact the various Mongol tribes and attack the Jurchens in the north together.

Within Liaodong territory.

At this moment, Hua Yunlong and others gathered together.

"We have received orders from His Highness the Crown Prince to completely wipe out these Jurchens. By the way, we also need to bring along those guys from the various Mongol tribes in this war!"

Everyone was very puzzled when they heard this. They could go on their own, so why did they need to bring these Mongol tribes along?

This guy isn't on their side; if we take him along, who knows what might happen?

Hua Yunlong said with a smile at this moment.

"When has His Highness the Crown Prince ever been wrong? So I guess the reason His Highness did this is to see which of these Mongols are truly loyal to our Great Ming and which harbor malicious intentions. We'll have to see how they try!"

"Anyway, these Jurchens are powerful in combat, but their numbers are not many!"

"Even if we defeat them, it won't make much difference. It's better to let these Mongols serve as vanguards and die for us!"

The generals nodded in agreement, thinking it made sense. The main problem was that there was absolutely no benefit in attacking the Jurchens; those guys were dirt poor, and they wouldn't get anything good even if they were defeated.

If it weren't for these guys being so annoying, no one would be willing to lay a hand on them.

After making their plans, they informed the leaders of the Mongol tribes, who were furious.

"These Ming people are truly despicable! How dare they make us fight alongside them? Do they think we're their subordinates?!"

These people all looked extremely unpleasant.

This is a sigh from a tribal chief.
