Although Xiong Tingbi held a high position and was also the Governor of Liaodong, he was not sure that he was in charge. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Your Majesty is very thoughtful. I am not sure yet. There must be a deeper meaning."

Xing Shenyan nodded and stopped talking. It was not the business of a minister to speculate on the emperor's intentions.

Xiong Tingbi was very excited. He had already learned from secret reports that after the autumn, more than 10,000 cavalrymen from the Beijing camp would rush to Guangning, which would be another powerful force.

The Jiannu will soon be destroyed!

After sending Xing Shenyan off, Xiong Tingbi placed small flags on the sand table. With the Ming-Mongol coalition coming from the north and the Beijing cavalry from the west, he led the Liaonan Corps northward. With three armies advancing simultaneously, how could the Jiannu cope?

For the major counter-offensive in winter and spring next year, the military towns in Liaodong are making intensive preparations, hoping to gain the greatest benefits and become the protagonist in this war that has attracted the attention of the government and the public.

The emperor, who was far away in the capital, also began the final "extortion and extortion".

Regardless of whether the counterattack was to destroy the Jiannu or to cripple them, Zhu Youxiao had already mobilized all his forces. And the intelligence lines established by the Jiannu, which were intended for the long term, had also come to be cut off.

If it was just to cut off, it was obviously not in Zhu Youxiao's character. Destroying the "Eight Great Locust Merchants" and amassing a huge fortune would also provide sufficient funds for the major counterattack and lay the foundation for victory.

Luo Sigong, commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, was sitting respectfully on an embroidered cushion. When he took the document handed to him by the palace maid and unfolded it to read, he was shocked.

Originally, only the Fan family had ties with slaves, and the Jinyiwei he sent had thoroughly investigated the Fan family. But he would never have imagined that the emperor's list would include eight families.

Could it be that the Pacification Division's reconnaissance was wrong, missing so many traitors who colluded with the slaves? This thought flashed through Luo Sigong's mind before being rejected.

Zhu Youxiao was drinking tea slowly on the throne, his heart in turmoil.

Is it right to impose severe punishment for crimes committed in history? Moreover, this has already exceeded the boundaries of severe punishment. Is killing a person too cruel and ruthless?
