Chapter 612: Establishment of a military town
Xia Nan naturally didn't want to be a miscellaneous general soldier, and was called like a dog by the military department, and he would be transferred wherever there was trouble. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info For example, a military general like Liu Zeqing, the military department wants to transfer him, and he doesn't dare to put a fart, because the food and salary are stuck in the hands of the imperial court, and the Xuanfu and Datong, especially the general army of Liaodong, guard the border passes, and the military department easily does not dare to transfer, and it cannot be transferred, unless there is a holy decree. Although he doesn't ask for food, even if the military department wants to transfer him, if he doesn't obey the transfer, the emperor in Qiongzhou is far away, and no one can help him, but this is not a way after all. Moreover, it is easier to recruit troops and attract talents, and the attraction of a general or miscellaneous general soldier is always limited.
He asked: "The last general naturally wants to be the chief military officer of the town guarding the side, and would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail." How does it work? ”
Zhu Dadian knew that he would definitely say this, a military general with strength and skill, and good network resources, naturally he was not willing to be a miscellaneous general soldier. He reminded: "I give you the credit for the report, the establishment of military towns is not a trivial matter, in addition to the establishment of nine border towns to prevent Tatars, this dynasty rarely sets up other military towns. However, it is man-made, if you follow the Nine Border Towns, it is impossible, but you can follow the example of Dongjiang Town. ”
Xia Nan was stunned for a moment: "Dongjiang Town? ”
"Exactly. After the fall of Liaodong, he fled back by sea, took advantage of the emptiness of the garrison to kill the defenders of Houjin Zhenjiang, occupied Phi Island and the surrounding islands, and formed a containment of the Tartars. The imperial court valued this, so it awarded Mao Wenlong as the chief military officer of Pingliao, added the title of governor of Zuodu, hung the general's seal, gave Shang Fang the sword, and opened the Dongjiang River. ”
Xia Nan somewhat understood: "What Futai means is that I can also follow Mao Wenlong and open a town in Qiongzhou?" ”
"Exactly, your sailor can annihilate the rebel fleet in one fell swoop, which is enough to prove his strength. At present, Zheng Zhilong of Fujian is dead, and there is no one to guard the sea frontier of Nuoda, so he can clarify the ocean, guard the southern Xinjiang, and prevent the red hair and other Xiyi and Japanese invaders as the reason, let the governor of Guangdong play the imperial court and ask for the opening of Qiongzhou. ”
Xia Nan Daxi, this is an excellent idea, he asked: "It's no problem to let Governor Mu go up, I don't know how sure it is that the Holy Lord can agree?" ”
Zhu Dadian thought for a while: "Fifty percent of the certainty, success or failure is between the thought of the saint." However, if there are red hairs or robbers during the period, then there is a ninety percent certainty. It's a pity that as early as the Jiajing period, Qi Jiguang killed all the Japanese in the Fujian and Guangzhou areas, and now the Japanese who are wandering to the south to harass are almost extinct......"
Xia Nan smiled, it is not easy to make a comeback of the Japanese Invaders, tell the Satsuma Domain, send some samurai to form a "Ming Tourist Touring Group" to revisit the old place, and even directly let Shimazu Chiyo be the "Waiko Leader"; As for the red hair, it is not difficult to ask Batavia to send a few ships to Guangdong and Fujian to take a tour and fire a few cannons, and the Dutch governor does not dare to refuse.
He replied, "The last general understands, thank you for your advice." ”
After saying goodbye from Zhu Dadian, Nan returned to the camp of the Qiongzhou camp in the summer non-stop, first explained a few words to Yang Youji, asked him to prepare according to his instructions, and then entered the camp where Xie Wenjun was.
"Miss Xie, change into men's clothes, follow me to find Ling Zun, and discuss something important."
Xie Wenjun came here disguised as a man, and his clothes, shoes and hats were ready-made, and when he saw his solemn face, he didn't ask much, so he immediately changed his clothes and followed him out of the camp. Shimazu Chiyo has been in charge of Xie Wenjun's defense during this time, and when he saw that the two of them were going out, he had to call his Japanese samurai.
Xia Nan stopped her: "Right now, Dengzhou is in the hands of officers and soldiers, the rebels have been defeated, and the city is safe." There are very few Japanese people here in Shandong, your subordinates are too eye-catching, it's better not to go out, just stay in the camp and wait, you can follow me. ”
The three of them drove lightly, only bringing a dozen guards to accompany them, and went straight to Xie Sanbin.
When he found Xie Sanbin, he was arranging manpower to dispatch the grain and grass and baggage of the soldiers and horses from all walks of life, Dengzhou had just been recovered, and the city was ruined by the rebels, and the official warehouse was empty. Seeing Xia Nan and his daughter appear, he couldn't help but be stunned: "What are you doing here?" ”
Xia Nan said directly: "Lord Xie, just leave these trivial matters to your subordinates, the sky can't fall." I have important matters to discuss with you, and I must make a decision as soon as possible. ”
Xie Sanbin hesitated: "But I'm not sitting here, I'm afraid that those people under me won't be able to do well, and when the time comes, I'm afraid that I will be punished if I delay Futai's explanation......"
"Don't care about some small things, Futai won't punish you for this. What I'm going to tell you is much more important than that. It's about your future and mine. ”
Xie Sanbin was a little surprised when he heard this, and turned his head to look at his daughter with an inquiring gaze. Xie Wenjun shook her head, meaning that she didn't know the details either, and then said softly: "Dad, let's put aside the matter at hand first." ”
Xie Sanbin trusted this daughter very much, and when he saw that she said the same, he nodded, called a secretary office with the army, gave a few instructions, and then said to Xia Nan: "This is not the place to talk, go to my camp." ”
Xia Nan and the Xie family's father and daughter entered the camp tent, let Yang Yuji, Shimazu Chiyo and others wait outside, and then put down the curtain, and the noise around was immediately much quieter, and the camp was quiet.
Summer went straight to the point: "Lord Xie, I just came out of Futai, and Futai also gave me a promise, everything is ready only to the east wind, now it depends on how you and I operate." Two things: one is that I will help you sit in the position of governor of Denglai, and then find a way to rebuild the Denglai Naval Division, so that my men and horses can be stationed in Dengzhou in this name; The second is that I will be promoted to the rank of chief military officer, and I will set up a military town to guard one side. ”
Rao is Xie Sanbin was reminded by his daughter that Xia Nan is ambitious and capable, and he should try his best to be good friends with him, and he was still taken aback when he heard this, both things are extremely difficult, especially the latter.
"This ...... This official has been promoted from the patrol of the seventh rank to the governor, is the span too big? As for the establishment of military towns, it is impossible to ......"
Xia Nan knew that these two news had a great impact on Xie Sanbin, and patiently relayed Zhu Dadian's words, and then said: "I have made a great contribution, and it is also of great benefit to Futai, plus I have a lot of bribes, Futai is willing to help us say good things in the performance, the ladder has been built, as long as Lord Xie uses the relationship activities of the Jingshi, the near water tower will get the moon first, and it is not difficult to win the position of governor of Denglai nearby." ”
Xie Sanbin groaned, if Zhu Dadian is willing to push it, it is not impossible to do something that seems impossible, and the governor will be promoted to the right capital of the imperial history, and he will have the basis for taking up the governor's position.
