Chapter 47 Excited Li Jinglong
"Your Majesty, there is no need to be angry. There may be other hidden reasons behind the rebellion of Emperor Yunhu, but I don't think that Emperor Yunhu can cause much trouble." Li Jinglong said with a smile.

Zhu Yunwen looked at Li Jinglong and said, "Jinglong, if I send you to suppress Zhu Yunhuan, how long will it take you to eliminate him?"

"Ah?" Li Jinglong was stunned at first, then delighted, and said proudly, "Your Majesty, if I were to go and suppress the grandson of the Emperor Yunhuan, I would only need to consider the journey. If I were to encounter the grandson of the Emperor Yunhuan, I could capture him in a day."

He might not be able to defeat Zhu Di, but when facing Zhu Yunhuan, a rookie with no battlefield experience, wouldn't he be able to defeat him easily?

To be honest, he said that one day was enough to give Zhu Yunhuan face. He beat Zhu Yunhuan for two hours, which was probably too much.

"One day?" Zhu Yunwen was stunned and said hesitantly, "Jinglong, Zhu Yunhuan now has tens of thousands of cavalry under his command."

"Your Majesty, there are many factors to consider when fighting a war, such as the number of troops and the quality of the soldiers, but the most important factor is the general."

"The ability of the general is the most critical part. Although Emperor Yunhu has tens of thousands of cavalry under his command, he has never been on the battlefield. I don't think he can command these troops well." Li Jinglong spoke eloquently.

So what if there were tens of thousands of cavalrymen? Zhu Yunhuan was a rookie with no experience in battlefield fighting. He could easily defeat him. If they met again, he would definitely beat Zhu Yunhuan to a pulp.

"That's true. It's easy to get thousands of soldiers, but it's hard to get a good general." Zhu Yunwen nodded.

"That's the truth, Your Majesty. When will I go to war? The grandson of Emperor Yunhu is in rebellion. I think it's better to suppress it as soon as possible to prevent the situation from collapsing and leading to other unexpected situations." Li Jinglong said in a deep voice.

He didn't know or care whether an unexpected situation would occur, but he couldn't wait even a moment for the credit that was right at his fingertips from Zhu Yunhuan. What if Zhu Yunhuan was wiped out by others?
A royal grandson who rebelled, had tens of thousands of cavalrymen under his command, but had no battlefield combat experience, was simply a piece of fat meat.

"Your Majesty, Duke Cao is right. We must act swiftly to suppress Zhu Yunhuan."

"Your Majesty, delay will lead to unexpected events. We must suppress Zhu Yunhuan with lightning speed as soon as possible."

"."

Fang Xiaoru, Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai spoke out.

Although they usually looked down on Li Jinglong, at this moment they had the same goal as Li Jinglong, which was to quickly suppress Zhu Yunhuan.

Zhu Yunwen thought for a moment and said, "Jinglong, I will give you 500,000 troops, and we will set off tomorrow!"

"Five hundred thousand?" Li Jinglong was somewhat stunned. He shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, we don't need that many men. I only need one hundred thousand soldiers and horses."

Although he boasted a lot, Zhu Yunhuan had tens of thousands of cavalry under his command after all, so he did not dare to be careless at all, so he asked for 100,000 soldiers.

"No, this time to suppress Zhu Yunhuan, you have to bring 500,000 troops!" Zhu Yunwen waved his hand and said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Li Jinglong nodded, his heart filled with confusion. He thought to himself, "What does Your Majesty mean? Why do you want me to lead so many troops?"

"Okay, go down and prepare well. Just let me know if you need anything." Zhu Yunwen patted Li Jinglong on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"I'm leaving!" Li Jinglong bowed, turned around and left.

After Li Jinglong left, Fang Xiaoru, Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai looked at each other, bowed and said respectfully, "Your Majesty is wise!" They knew why Zhu Yunwen insisted on letting Li Jinglong lead an army of 500,000 to attack Zhu Yunhuan. It was nothing more than to demonstrate the strength of the court and use Zhu Yunhuan's head to intimidate the restless vassal kings.

Although they had just made the suggestion, the credit must be attributed to Zhu Yunwen. As a minister, he could have nothing, but he must always remember his identity.

"Hahaha, my three beloved ministers, please cooperate with Jinglong and make good arrangements for the supplies."

"This time, I want to use a resounding victory to tell my uncles that whoever is restless in the future will end up like Zhu Yunhuan." Zhu Yunwen laughed and then said coldly.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Fang Xiaoru, Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai responded respectfully.

Kunning Palace!
Zhu Yunwen came to Mrs. Lu with a smile on his face and said, "Mother, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"I heard that Zhu Yunhuan started a rebellion?" Lu asked calmly.

Zhu Yunwen nodded and said, "Yes, Zhu Yunhuan has rebelled, and I don't know where he got tens of thousands of cavalry. However, I have already asked Li Jinglong to suppress it. He has brought 500,000 soldiers and horses, and will set out tomorrow."

"Five hundred thousand soldiers and horses?" Lu was stunned when she heard this. She looked up at Zhu Yunwen and frowned, "Do we really need so many soldiers and horses to deal with Zhu Yunhuan?"

According to the information she received, Zhu Yunhuan only had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, although they were cavalry. However, wasn't it a bit too much for the Ming Dynasty to directly send out 500,000 soldiers and horses?
"Mother, the reason why I sent so many troops is not only to suppress Zhu Yunhuan, but also to warn those restless uncles by suppressing Zhu Yunhuan." Zhu Yunwen explained.

Lu suddenly understood what he said and nodded, "I see. If that's the case, then there's no problem."

Although Zhu Yunhuan's rebellion this time was somewhat unexpected, she really did not take Zhu Yunhuan seriously. Compared with the other vassal kings, he was not worth mentioning.

"I told you, it's better to get rid of Zhu Yunhuan as soon as possible. Now Zhu Yunhuan has started a rebellion. It seems that the people you sent to the high walls of Fengyang should have died." Lu said.

"Yes, you did the right thing, mother. I never thought that even after Zhu Yunhuan was imprisoned in Fengyang, he still had such evil intentions."

"However, now that he has jumped out, it gives me a legitimate reason to kill him." Zhu Yunwen felt relieved.

Fortunately, they listened to his mother and took action against Zhu Yunhuan. Otherwise, who knows how long Zhu Yunhuan would have hidden. If he had caused trouble when he had a conflict with the vassal kings, the harm would have been even greater.

"Forget it, let's not talk about Zhu Yunhuan. There's nothing much to talk about a dead man. As for the person standing behind Zhu Yunhuan, have the Jinyiwei found any clues?" Mrs. Lu waved her hand and changed the subject.

Zhu Yunhuan, a grandson of the emperor imprisoned behind the high walls of Fengyang, certainly could not have supported tens of thousands of cavalrymen. It goes without saying that there must be someone supporting Zhu Yunhuan behind the scenes.

Zhu Yunwen shook his head and said, "Not yet. I suspect it's Lan Yu, but Jiang Li said the Jinyiwei have been keeping an eye on Lan Yu and haven't noticed anything unusual."

"Lan Yu?" Lu thought for a moment and shook her head. "It can't be Lan Yu. He doesn't have that ability. Zhu Yunhuan is either backed by a vassal king or the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty."
