    "Of course I know you, Dingba, are not that despicable person."

    Zhu Yuqian seemed unconcerned: "I just said some sincere words about the current shortcomings of the Ming Dynasty. If I can't even say these sincere words, then there is really no hope for the Ming Dynasty."

    His face was full of worry. At this time, he didn't look like a "businessman" at all, but more like a high-ranking official who was worried about the future of the Ming Dynasty.

    Ding Yunyi didn¡¯t know what to say for a moment and remained silent.

    "The Ming Dynasty is not afraid of the Hong Yi." Zhu Yuqian suddenly changed the subject: "Last time, the Ming navy attacked the Hong Yi Liu Xiang coalition, and the Hong Yi we killed did not dare to look at the Ming Dynasty. Besides, the current danger of the Hong Yi is only  In the coastal area, what worries me is the bandits roaming around Sichuan!"

    He picked up the wine bowl and took a sip. He drank so fast that he choked and coughed repeatedly. After a while, he calmed down: "Wang Ni used it for himself and joined forces with Gao Ni Yingxiang, Li Ni Zicheng, Zhang Ni Xianzhong, and Ma Ni Shouying."  etc., known as "Thirty-six Battalions, Two Hundred Thousand Horses", the Ming court gathered heavy troops to intensify the encirclement and suppression. God bless the Ming Dynasty, Wang Ni was killed by an arrow in Jiyuan, Henan, and the rebels supported Gao Ni Yingxiang as their leader.  Crossing the Yellow River from northern Henan and going south, we fell into the three counties of Mianchi, Yiyang and Lushi"

    "They must immediately enter central and western Henan and carry out operations in the border areas of Henan, Shaanxi, Sichuan, Huguang and other provinces." Ding Yunyi said: "They must gather troops from the five provinces of Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan, Huguang, and Sichuan to form an encirclement.  Only with this strength can we defeat these thieves!¡±

    Zhu Yuqian looked greatly moved: "How did you know about the court's arrangements"

    Having said this, I suddenly felt something was wrong and hurriedly changed my words and said, "Is this all an arrangement by the court?"

    Ding Yunyi smiled slightly. At this point, he was already sure that Zhu Yuqian must be an official of the imperial court, and his status must not be low.

    He refused to point it out: "Yun Yi is just a small boss, how can he know the court's arrangements? These are just my private guesses."

    Zhu Yuqian nodded slightly: "It seems that General Ding is not only extremely brave, but also has a very high strategy. Maybe the imperial court really uses troops in this way."

    "It's just a random guess." Ding Yunyi said humbly.

    "Not necessarily, not necessarily." Zhu Yuqian said repeatedly, and then asked hopefully: "Do you think the court can judge these thieves?"

    "If everyone in the imperial court is united and goes all out to suppress the bandits, the bandits will definitely be defeated." Ding Yunyi blurted out without thinking: "The bandits are just some rogue bandits at the moment. They will not count if they are defeated. Although they are said to be hundreds of thousands, they have not really formed a powerful force.  Strength. If the imperial court combines the efforts of the five provinces and advances steadily, the bandits will have no place to hide. It is a pity"

    "What's the pity?" Zhu Yuqian's eyes were full of expectations and he kept asking.

    Are there certain things you should say?  Ding Yunyi felt somewhat conflicted.

    He doesn¡¯t know why, but he has a strong feeling in his heart that today will be a very important day for him, and it may even affect his future

    But Ding Yunyi himself couldn¡¯t explain why he had such a premonition

    People need to gamble several times in their life. If you lose the bet, your head will fall to the ground; if you win the bet, the sea and the sky will be brighter!

    Ding Yunyi gritted his teeth: "The first is the fatal issue of wages. Suppressing bandits requires money, but what the court lacks most now is money. The most powerful bandits must be pursued, and the poor bandits must be pursued. Don't give them a chance to stand up, otherwise they will be allowed to breathe.  There will be endless troubles. Once the imperial court's military pay is no longer sustainable, the suppression of bandits can only be abandoned half-way, and the bandits can survive"

    Zhu Yuqian listened very carefully: "This is absolutely true, but what's next?"

    "The second issue is whether the court officials are united." Ding Yunyi continued: "Some people want to resolutely suppress the bandits, but some people are not necessarily willing to be so diligent. Instead, they want to support the bandits to respect themselves."

    "Oh, why is this?" Zhu Yuqian was puzzled.

    Ding Yunyi smiled bitterly: "When the bandits are here, local officials have excuses to ask the court for money and military pay. Once the bandits are wiped out, these excuses will disappear."

    "Damn it!" Zhu Yuqian was furious: "Is there really any local official who dares to do this? Aren't you afraid of my Ming Dynasty's laws?"

    With just this sentence, his true identity was revealed.

    Ding Yunyi can basically determine that this person has little contact with the outside world. Although he wants to conceal his identity, he often reveals his true identity with a raise of his hands or feet.

    "Gentlemen, please calm down." Ding Yunyi said calmly.

    Zhu Yuqian then realized that he had lost his composure, and said angrily: "I was worried about the court, and I lost my composure for a moment, which made Mr. Ding laugh."

    Ding YunyiHe is sure of it: "But in my opinion, in addition to the rogue bandits, the biggest worry for the imperial court today is also a more ferocious one, the golden bandit!"

    "Jinlu? Those Jurchens?" Zhu Yuqian was startled at first, and then became disapproving: "Although the power of Jurchens has increased greatly in recent years, barbarian people who do not know how to be kings are not enough to compete with our Ming Dynasty."

    Ding Yunyi shook his head slightly.

    This is a common problem in the Ming Dynasty today. Although they have realized the huge threat of the Jurchens, they still look down on the Jurchens from the bottom of their hearts. They believe that no matter how weak the Ming Dynasty is, they cannot match the Jurchens.

    But it was these Jurchens with pigtails who destroyed the Ming Dynasty in the future!

    He could not tell Zhu Yu Qianming: "Gentlemen, you must not underestimate the Jurchens. They are fierce and ferocious. After careful development, they continue to absorb the scum of our Ming Dynasty. Their strength can compete with our Ming Dynasty.  Even surpassing the Ming Dynasty in some aspects, it is a serious problem for the Ming Dynasty. What¡¯s more, the bandits are still helping the Jurchens!¡±

    "What, are the rogue bandits and Jinlu already connected?" Zhu Yuqian was shocked when he heard this.

    "That's not true." Ding Yunyi said slowly: "The imperial court only has so much money, and it has to guard against the golden bandits and deal with the rogue bandits. And those rogue bandits are running around, making our officers and soldiers tired of dealing with them, and unable to concentrate the whole country's efforts to deal with the incoming and outgoing bandits."  Isn¡¯t the Jurchen¡¯s threat equivalent to giving Jin Lu secret help?¡±

    Zhu Yuqian thought there for a long time, and then nodded silently.

    Yes, listening to what Ding Yunyi said, there is a lot of truth in what he said.  But what can the court do now?  Due to internal and external troubles, the imperial court was very passive.

    Ding Yunyi looked at him quietly and said: "The most urgent task for the imperial court is to send a capable official to concentrate most of the force to give the bandits a fatal blow. This blow must be severe and must be killed!"

    This blow must be severe and will kill!

    Hearing this, Zhu Yuqian¡¯s eyes lit up.
