In the blink of an eye, more than ten days, Chen Mu was so busy that his feet did not touch the ground, and he has been inspecting the site selection and surrounding environment of the Beiyang Yamen.

The location of the Yamen of the Beiyang Military Government was selected on the north bank of the Wei River, and a large area of wasteland was demarcated by the Wei place in Tianjin, and craftsmen with excellent construction skills were recruited to inspect the place and design the map.

Tianjin is surrounded by Tuntian and Mintian, and it is not easy for Tianjin Dao to find a few decent places for Beiyang Yamen, and the other two places are on the south bank, both close to Dagu Haikou.

Chen Mu chose to be on the north shore because he didn't want to interfere with the people's fields on the south bank, and because the northeast coast of the north bank was very suitable for building docks, and there were several villages far away to the west, and the people were all salt boilers in the northwest salt farm, Chen Mu planned to show the grand achievements of the Beiyang Military Government on this land.

Of course, when Zhao Shizhen saw Chen Mu's drawing of the Beiyang Military Mansion, he always suspected that Chen Mu was not going to build a military mansion, but wanted to build another redundant big city next to a big city.

Zhao Yuanwai, who supervised the construction of the warehouse, also knew that it was a bit strange to call the strange thing on Chen Mu's drawing a big city, because it really belonged to the category of the city, and there was only a small fortress on the map, but the surrounding area was too big!

Seeing that the rainy season in the north is coming, the heavy goods transported by Nanyang are likely to arrive before the heavy rain pours, and they must first build out the warehouse and tamp the road, and some goods cannot be damp.

Riding a horse along the official road on the north shore, Chen Mu ran all the way back to Dagu Fortress, if nothing else, someone from Nanyang came.

On the far coast, you can see warships docked like shadows, which are half of the regular fleet of the South China Sea or Fujian and Guangzhou, which is commonly known as Liuding or Liujia, and the black pressure almost fills the coastal waters, attracting the port merchants and ordinary people to gather and stop.

In the early three years of such a fleet, there were only three ships in the whole of Guangdong, and each of them indicated that there were twelve smaller ships in its vicinity.

And now, the standing fleet of Liuding Liujia has three teams in Guangxi, Guangdong, Fujian, Zhejiang, Nanzhili, one Beijing and four provinces - so to speak, the Nanyang Military Government has become the guy with short legs, and the Nanyang Military Government still has only one team of Liuding Liujia, and there are three seconded ships under the command of Chen Bazhi in Japan.

There is no way, the strength of the Nanyang Military Government is too small, and the six Ding and Liujia are thousands of warships, and in the Nanyang, where naval battles are often frequent, a Dingjia ship has two five hundred materials, ten ships and two hundred materials to protect the battlefield, and there are usually six or more four hundred materials as grain ships.

A team of six Ding Liujia formations, with a full capacity of 12,000 people, only 11,200 directly under the Nanyang Military Government in the Nanyang range, this is not counting the Nanyang Wei, but the Nanyang Wei has Nanyang Wei's ships, and the other clan armies use their own ships when sending troops - after all, the ships they bought from Chen Mu can't be left rusty.

Not to mention the secondment of the Liangguang ship when needed, the Nanyang Military Government itself did not have more people to take the ship.

Outside the fortress of Dagukou, one hundred and ten Nanyang flag troops were setting up camp tents, Chen Mu was still on horseback and recognized that it was Fu Yuan who was giving orders in the camp seriously, followed by the sound of horses' hooves, and the commander of the Luzon Nanwei turned his head and ran to the official road to greet him, walking like a fly, making the atmosphere become dog-legged.

"Handsome!"

Chen Mu frowned slightly, said hello to Fang Yuan, turned his hand to the shore and pointed to the shore, and said, "What's the matter with the fleet, that's not Jingyun." ”

Fu Yuan didn't even be stunned when he heard Chen Mu's words, obviously he had already prepared to report, and said with a smile: "Since the marshal Beishan reported on his work, the military affairs were handled by Gao Gong, Bai Shuai, and Chen Shuai. ”

The Chen in his mouth is Chen Lan's Chen.

"Then why did you go ashore, what did those boats do?"

It was six fleets, no matter whether Gao Gong or Chen Lan could not let Fu Yuan escort them alone, and the soldiers alone maintained a combat strength of at least three thousand.

Immediately after that, I heard Fu Yuan say: "My ship is broken, go ashore to rest, others will leave tomorrow to supply water and food in Tianjin Port, and the military law will not allow me to dock." ”

Chen Mu saw that his face was different, and he felt as if he had something to say, Fu Yuan glanced at the fortress, and hurriedly said: "Duke Yin, the governor of Liangguang, came to Beijing to report on his work, and he is waiting for the handsome man inside." ”

At this time, Chen Mu understood that it was Yin Zhengmao who also returned to Beijing to report on his work, but this time to report on his work was very intriguing.

Chen Mu didn't say anything more to Fu Yuan, it was estimated that he was coming to tell him about Nanyang's private affairs, and he didn't eat anything after seeing Yin Zhengmao, so he nodded towards Fu Yuan and walked towards the fortress.

Dagukou fortress is not big, not as good as a small acropolis, through the school field, you can see at a glance the soldiers standing on the hundred households of the yamen hall waiting, the governor of Liangguang who is over sixty years old Yin Zhengmao sat on the left with a tea bowl and frowned without saying a word, wearing a black gauze and wearing a scarlet robe is very serious, when he saw someone passing through the school field, he glanced at this side, got up and stretched his arms to tighten the official robe, and walked out of the yamen quickly.

"Yin Zhengmao, the minister of the Western Ocean, meet the important minister Chen Gong of the Beiyang!"

Chen Mu just quickened his pace and wanted to go over to salute, Yin Zhengmao came to bow down, but Chen Mu believed that he would really bow down without running two steps, but he was scared a lot, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

"Gong Yin, don't torture the juniors, I'm not just your juniors, you are also my old boss, it's a sin not to come to greet you!"

To be honest, he doesn't like Yin Zhengmao very much, and in the years that Yin Zhengmao was the governor of Liangguang, he went north and south, and he was not deeply involved with Liangguang, except for sending people to send some things to the government during the New Year's holidays, there was no more interaction.

To say that being the governor of Liangguang, Yin Zhengmao is much better than his predecessor Zhang Han, this is a veteran, the reason why Chen Mu is reluctant to have more contact with him is that the reputation is not good, and secondly, Yin Zhengmao's relationship is too hard, since he arrived in Liangguang, he is the cold face of the governor of the two places, so that Chen Mu does not dare to go up, in case he is offended, he can't afford to provoke others.

In the years when Yin Zhengmao served as the governor of Liangguang, Gao Gong was gaining power, and his appointment as governor of Liangguang was also Gao Gong's order; But if you want to say that the relationship is close, he is closer to Zhang Juzheng - the two of them are Jinshi in the same year.

Of course, the difference between the two is that in the twenty-sixth year of Jiajing's Dengke Record, counting the top list of the top stars, Zhang Juzheng ranked twelfth in the positive number, and Yin Zhengmao ranked twelfth from the bottom.

As for the wind commentary, there is actually nothing to say, it is nothing more than Yin Zhengmao as a civil official and Mo to pay taxes and military attache black army salary.

It is not a secret that the government and the opposition know everything.

But I don't like it, Chen Mu didn't want to be unhappy with the sixty-year-old general, especially after hearing Yin Zhengmao's words, his face became like intangible cultural heritage.

As soon as Yin Zhengmao was lifted up from the ground, Chen Mu widened his eyes and exclaimed with a consistently exaggerated smirk: "The younger generation didn't expect the imperial court to appoint Duke Yin as a minister of the West!" Overseas things have come to an end! ”/14_14088/
