Chapter 60: Jurisprudence

"Confeficiate the people overseas?"

The prospects of the Beiyang Military Government are undoubtedly good, and this has become a recognized good place in the eyes of the courtiers who do practical things.

Just like the nine sides and southeast of the country when the south and the north were in trouble, as long as they have talent and ambition, they can make the little-known Dengzhou commander become the prime minister of Jizhen, and can make the small Taizhou prefect become the secretary of the military department, not to mention those who have served as famous ministers in the nine sides - it is a place that ambitious people yearn for.

The same is true for Siyang, overseas means that no one knows about wealth, even if he can't know it now, when he sees Chen Mu, he uses his brain to know how his name as a wealth boy came from, and no one thinks that Chen Mu is generous by nature.

When it comes to money, the most dull Ming people will have the ability to see the essence through phenomena, and the essence of generosity is wealth.

However, when it came to specific work, Ye Mengxiong was blind, a foreigner living thousands of miles away in the Beiyang Military Mansion lived, and the Oriental Marshal was ready to give Emperor Yu to crown him king?

Ye Mengxiong blinked, and said to Chen Mu earnestly: "Chen Shuai, even if the handbook is played, the cabinet ministers agree, the emperor is happy, and the edict of the national dynasty can be managed over there?" I've seen the map of the world, but it's not the land of my domain. ”

"I can't do it." Chen Mu put down the letter from the military government and said with a smile: "But don't you care, does Ye Gong know why the Nanyang countries are convinced by the emperor of our dynasty, and even the monarchs have to send envoys to ask the emperor to be canonized?" ”

The Yamen of the Beiyang Military Mansion is not quiet, although it is not noisy, but when the flag army of the infantry school field is released, a little sound can always be heard, people have reminded Chen Mu because the distance of the artillery school is too close, but he was rejected by him to remind the officers not to forget the war, so that now in the office of the military palace Yamen, I often feel that the battlefield is nearby.

There was another bang, Ye Mengxiong frowned, he really didn't think about why the countries would respect the great emperor, thought carefully for a long time, said the intriguing four words, and said: "The ancestors' legacy." ”

People want to be more moral, but the nature of how the world works is cruel most of the time - the Yuan Dynasty sent troops to fight most countries, and the huge fleet of the Three Treasures under the Western Ocean announced to half the world that China was revolutionizing and establishing a new Huayi order.

"The lower official is not saying that he should not be canonized, Chen Shuai should know about me, my colleagues say that the male Zhao is belligerent." Ye Mengxiong laughed at himself and talked about his experience of being degraded for preventing peace, and said: "To treat those who are not subordinate, you should send troops to fight, but the great trouble of the imperial court should be in the north!" ”

"Even if you get demoted again, ten times! I think so too. The original intention of the city was to discuss peace and recuperate before waiting for the war, and now the courtiers all thought that the trouble of the northern captives had been eliminated, and the side affairs were abolished. ”

"Nowadays, people only look overseas, everyone chases wealth but forgets the northern Xinjiang, the Oriental feudalism will inevitably cause wars, and the national strength is invested overseas, and the recruitment policy of heavy money is not a long-term solution, doesn't a sober person like Chen Shuai think so?"

Chen Mu didn't speak, he just remembered Hai Rui, remembering that Hai Rui said that his father died in the woes, and the southern and northern captives were only four words, but they weighed more than a thousand catties.

They are a generation that has been victimized by the captives of the south and the north, and for the country, it is like a wound that has been cut, and the wound will heal, but this scar is still there, and it will only slowly fade away until this generation is buried in the ground.

Only they will cherish this kind of power that they will never forget and linger on.

"We have been fighting with the north for a long time, the nine-sided army will be eight million stone of rice and grain, of course I hope to eliminate the troubles, militarily solve the northern disaster, in the past there was a precedent in the country of the Central Plains, the Han Dynasty had driven the Huns to the west, the Tang Dynasty border army often out of the fortress, but we do not have such a ability - not that our army is not strong, dare not fight with it, there is really no spare strength to organize a large-scale land expedition, and to carry out again, it is not a single expedition can be solved."

"The imperial court has a year's income, and most of the military expenses of the nine sides and the rice of the clan are spent, and I plan to sail thousands of miles to the Great Eastern Ocean, and the soldiers will only be able to stop 300,000 stone for two years; To fight a big battle that will prevent the north from suffering in the future, the soldiers of the nine sides will come out together, and the mobilization of all parts of the country will require millions of people, and the road consumption of marching will need millions of stones, rice, and grain. ”

"It is not difficult for the imperial court to come up with food, but it will take three years of national strength, and now it seems that it may not be able to win." Chen Mu pursed his lips slightly, raised his hand and pointed on the table and said: "It's better to solve the problem first, Nanyang has been effective, the cabinet sent a letter before, and after changing the law in the world, he will start to transfer the vassal king to overseas Xinming and other places, so that my country's strength will be strong, and no one will dare to make trouble." ”

"Actually, I have other ideas about northern Xinjiang, we don't necessarily have to be enemies, there is a story in Japan, the territory of the three families is close, they want to open up outward, but also worry about the enemy, so they are allied with each other; Earlier in our country, there was more respect for the king and the saying that the Zhou royal family was respected, and the princes did not annex and invaded foreign lands. ”

Chen Mu stretched out his hand and said: "The ancients are no other, we have always had a deep relationship with the strong neighbors in the north, he can't get by, so he wants me to fight, I can't get by, I have to fight him, but we have been living well, so the war rarely stops, but what if we have a common enemy?" ”

"I have recruited them to fight for me, and I am happy to do the same with the chiefs of the various tribes, he is now our king of Shunyi, and the leaders of the tribes are all governors, but we have no ability to govern them, why don't we want to really govern them, and really make them our governors? I also respect the son of the great tomorrow, even if someone does not respect him, General Zhenshuo of the Beiyang Army can teach him etiquette and righteousness. ”

"I hope that it will become the norm for the Mongolian cavalry and Jurchen warriors to go to Asia by boat in Tianjin, and I hope that they will get the fief of the Son of Heaven there, and those who do not want to get the fief can also return to the Mobei capital of the Ming Dynasty with their wealth to command the envoys, so that the legend of the Ming warriors as their home in the whole world will be spread all over the world."

"Born at this time, we have all been stimulated by the times, maybe Ye Gong and Hai Gong of Nanyang will be affected by the humiliation of the Southern and Northern Captives for the rest of their lives, and I am the same, but not the Southern and Northern Captives."

Chen Mu's eyes became ruthless for a moment, but then they were as gentle as ever.

He smiled lightly, and his tone was flat: "In the Forbidden City, the first emperor was reluctant to eat pies. ”

"Maybe he wasn't reluctant, he just complained that the things in the palace were too expensive like ordinary people, but when I saw it, I knew what I should do."

"I don't know what the first emperor wants the world to look like, I only know that no matter what it looks like in the future, future generations will say that all this was laid when the first emperor was in charge of the country, and Ye Gong said that the emperor's edict was useless on the other side of the ocean? Yes, it's useless now, because we have no legal reason in that land that we have never set foot in. ”

Chen Mu stopped talking, and his fists on the table clenched slightly.

There was nothing to be done in the world until there was the first man with a big fist.

"That's because Chen hasn't gone yet."
