Remembering the heavy hammer, such as Hong Zhong Da Lu, hit the hearts of the important ministers in the main hall, the northern Shilin Wenchen and the generals were enthusiastic one by one, and the southern scholars were also deeply touched.

Who can stand in this hall, who has not studied hard when he was young and experienced decades of ups and downs in the court? And who is ignorant of the whole Great Zhou situation?

It is nothing more than the interests of themselves and the families, township parties and strata they represent, but one thing is certain, no one wants to see the decline of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and no one wants to let the iron hooves of the northern nomads regain their prime.

Although the nightmare of the Northern Yuan Dynasty was short-lived, the humble Gou An of the Two Song Dynasty was engraved in the hearts of the Wenchen generals like a knife and an axe, and no one could forget the humiliation of the sixteen states of Yanyun and the New Year's coin, and no one could tolerate the Great Zhou Dynasty becoming like the Two Song Dynasty.

Feng Ziying's voice echoed in the main hall, and Emperor Yonglong was excited and carefully observed the changes in the expressions of the ministers.

These sophisticated courtiers may be touched by Feng Ziying's words, but it would be naïve to say that just these words can make them immediately enthusiastically agree with and support your opinion.

But I have to say that this is a touching opportunity.

"Well said, thought-provoking, I haven't heard such a slamming direct advice for many years, I don't know what the princes think in their hearts?" Emperor Yonglong sighed softly, "I understand what Ziying means, that is, Liaodong cannot be lost, but if the logistics supply problem of Liaodong is not solved, then Liaodong cannot be defended, is this what it means?" ”

Feng Ziying raised her head proudly: "Back to Your Majesty, this is exactly what the minister intended, and it also needs to be determined that the logistics supply problem in Liaodong cannot be delayed, if it cannot be completely solved within three or five years, and once the Jurchens solve the Ula Department and the Yehe Department, Liaodong will be a dead game, and even North Korea may completely fall to the Jianzhou Jurchens and become their logistics supply backing!" ”

It's a chain buckle.

If the logistics supply is not solved, Liaodong Town can only maintain the defensive position, and the Jianzhou Jurchens will be able to clean up the Ula Department and the Yehe Department one by one, and once the remnants of the Haixi Jurchen are cleaned up, then Liaodong will become an orphan, either decisively give up the evacuation, or wait for the fall.

"But Ziying, connecting the shipping routes of southern Liaoning and Denglai, there are many difficulties in the process, and the cabinet and the six ministers are afraid that they have already planned it, Ziying, you are afraid that you also have considerations, right?" Emperor Yonglong's voice was gentle.

Feng Ziying didn't know that this was Emperor Yonglong leading the way for herself, and nodded: "Of course, there are many obstacles that need to be overcome to open the Liaonan-Denglai maritime supply line, but if there are no problems and difficulties, then what do we need so many ministers to do in this palace?" Isn't it the responsibility of the DPRK and the Central Authorities to consider problems and solve difficulties? There are always more ways than difficulties, and the ministers don't believe that Ye Gong and Fang Gong can't solve these problems. ”

Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe both snorted lightly with unkind faces, but they didn't say anything.

Now you know how to say good things? In the past, this guy was wanton and arrogant, and he treated himself as nothing, making everyone look shameless, and in the end, he had to solve the problem, and he had to push it on a few of his own people.

Emperor Yonglong saw that Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe were silent, of course he knew what these people were thinking, and smiled slightly, "Ziying, if there are any questions, you might as well raise them together." ”

"The minister is gone, in fact, the minister wants to make a meaning, that is, since Liaodong must be defended, it is related to the success or failure of our defense in the north of the Great Zhou, so if the supply line of the Liaoxi Corridor cannot be supported, the supply line of Liaonan - Denglai must be opened, that is, then there are problems to solve problems, there are difficulties to overcome difficulties, there are no conditions to create conditions, we have to do just to do this thing thoroughly!"

Feng Ziying's words made the hall quiet.

There are problems to solve, there are difficulties to overcome difficulties, and there are no conditions to create conditions, these three sentences are catchy, which were the words commonly used in meetings in Feng Ziying's previous life, but saying it at this moment really made the ministers in the palace refreshing.

yes, what's the point of going back and forth here? If this thing has to be done, and the problem has to be solved, then why not think about how to solve the problem and do it well?

Even Qi Yongtai couldn't help but look at himself as a disciple, these three sentences can be said to have touched the sore spot of many Qing people in this hall who can only play with mouth cannons, they can't solve problems and can't do things, but they are more energetic than anyone else to oppose and question.

"Your Majesty, since this is the case, it is better to let Ziying talk about his suggestions, there are indeed many problems and difficulties in solving the transportation and supply of southern Liaoning-Denglai at the moment, and to solve and overcome them, we also need everyone here to work together." Li Sancai, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, finally interjected.

He is a native of Beidishi, but he has always had close contacts with Jiangnan scholars, and the problems mentioned by Cui Jingrong before are mainly in the Ministry of Industry, of course, it is the problem of the Ministry of Industry in Nanjing, and the Ministry of Industry in Nanjing is relatively independent from the Ministry of Industry of the Imperial Court, and he has not been in office for a long time, and the board cannot hit him.

It was undoubtedly the most appropriate for him to stand up and speak, and it would also ease the fierce emotions between the northern and southern scholars because of this incident.

Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe exchanged glances, and finally nodded, "Ziying, then tell me your thoughts, well, mainly talk about how to build and operate, as well as the problems and difficulties that may be encountered." ”

The matter has come to this point, and the emperor made it clear that the carriage and horses were to give an explanation to the prince Teng and his people, and to be honest, Liaodong must not be lost.

Some other Jiangnan scholars in the DPRK and China who are not familiar with current affairs can open their mouths and talk irresponsibly, but Ye Xianggao, Fang Congzhe and even Li Tingji all understand this truth.

If you lose Liaodong, I am afraid that the morale of the entire Great Zhou army will be lost, and at that time, I am afraid that you will really have to consider moving the capital to Nanjing or even Hangzhou, as Feng Ziying said, and you will have to cross the river with the Jianzhou Jurchens to rule, then your current cabinet will really be nailed to the pillar of shame in history.

"Xia Guan thinks that in order to open up the southern Liaoning-Denglai maritime supply line, it is necessary to have enough shipbuilding capacity and sufficient shipping scale in southern Liaoning and Denglai, and the key to this lies in how to let the businessmen spontaneously and consciously come to Denglai and southern Liaoning to operate shipyards and routes, and at present, the model of Longjiang and Qingjiang shipyards has many drawbacks, and the supervision of the Nanjing Ministry of Industry and the Metropolitan Procuratorate is weak on the one hand, on the other hand, it is because of the collusion between the people and the shipyard inside and outside, and the responsibilities and interests do not match, and they must of course make trouble from it,... …”

Li Sancai, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, couldn't help frowning, "Ziying, we understand what you mean, official construction is not feasible, so Denglai and southern Liaoning are a blank land, how can those businessmen consciously and spontaneously come to build a shipyard and open a route?" They are familiar with the people of Nanzhi, Liangzhejiang and Fujian, and the climate is an unrivaled advantage for them, how can they be willing to come to southern Liaoning and Denglai? ”

"Yes, Ziying, if all the money is paid by the imperial court, and the private businessmen are allowed to build shipyards and shipbuilding, not to mention that the household treasury can't take out this money at all, if this is done, what is the difference between it and the official construction? The official shipyard is still owned by our imperial court, so that the private businessmen come, it is almost the imperial court to send money and silver to these merchants. ”

Zheng Jizhi is both a scholar of the household department and a native of the north, and he is more suitable for him to say this than those Jiangnan scholars.

This is also the most difficult thing for the princes of the imperial court to accept.

"Lord Zheng, the lower officials have never said that they would let the imperial court pay to build a shipyard for them." Feng Ziying said with a smile: "Whoever pays will benefit, and the officials still understand this rule." ”

"Oh?" Zheng Jizhi was stunned, didn't he say that this guy advocated letting the imperial court pay to support the businessmen to set up shipyards in Liaonan and Denglai? If the imperial court didn't pay for it, how could these merchants go north? "That may be a misunderstanding by the official, but Ziying, if you want these people to obediently obey the initiative of the imperial court to set up shipyards in Denglai and Liaonan, it is really a bit difficult, what is Ziying's strategy?"

"Lord Zheng, businessmen value profit over separation, as long as it is profitable, even their wives and children can also give it up, let alone go north, as for the climate, it is not that they go into the water to build ships, how many of them are not adaptable? Besides, at present, many homeless people in the north can't even eat enough, but the water is colder, as long as it is in the summer and autumn, I think no one in Denglai and southern Liaoning will be willing to earn this money. ”

Seeing Emperor Yonglong frowning, Ye Xianggao couldn't help but interject: "Brother Boxiao, let's wait for Ziying to introduce the specific strategy first, and then we will discuss it." ”

Zheng Jizhi realized that he was a little Meng Lang, the emperor and the cabinet and everyone were waiting to listen to Feng Ziying's strategy, but he came to interrupt and quickly confessed.

"The following official's thoughts, Denglai and Liaonan want to completely unblock shipping, the establishment of a shipyard is necessary, the first needs to be able to build, the second must be able to repair, this is a long-term business, and we can also see that the ships of the Xiyi people come to our Great Zhou from Xiyi, thousands of miles away, and their ships are different from the design structure to the ship type and the shape of the sail rope are different from the commonly used ships in our Great Zhou, and the lower officials have also understood that the Xiyi ships are more conducive to offshore navigation, while our ships are more suitable for offshore navigation, and they have their own strengths in terms of load and operation, But their ships are clearly better suited to set up ship artillery,......"

“…… Generally speaking, Xiyi's shipbuilding technology has surpassed us, if our sailor fleet wants to ensure the smooth flow of Liaonan - Denglai in the future, control the routes of Japan and Korea, and even completely let the trade interests of this region be exclusive to our Dazhou in the future, learn Xiyi's shipbuilding technology, and build a sailor fleet with Xiyi ships, so that our sailor fleet will not fall behind, and then maintain our dominant position in this region,......"
