Chapter 1045: Big and Small
After receiving Zhu Xianxuan's letter, Su Tiancheng's face turned blue with anger, and he didn't speak for a long time.
Su Tiancheng was even more disappointed in Zhu Youzhen, when is it now, as long as you are not an idiot, you understand what is the most important, people say that the prime minister can support the boat in his belly, what to do at a critical moment, most people understand, just say that Su Tiancheng fought with Houjin Tatars in the direction of Haizhou, and he also focused on the overall situation, and he definitely did not think of supporting the army and respecting himself, even if the Jiangning battalion is very likely to suffer heavy losses in many battles in the future, it is also necessary to go up hard, and I can't think of the Jiangning battalion's hard work in the front. Then there is a problem.
Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou, is Su Tiancheng spent a lot of experience to build, shipbuilders, arsenals and docks, etc., are extremely critical, but also the main source of military salaries and firearms in Jiangning battalion, especially after defeating the Dutch colonists, completely control the South China Sea, East China Sea and other shipping routes, the wharf business is thriving, with the daily gold to describe, not too much, but at this time, Zhu Youzhen thought about doing it, let Zhang Fengyi lead 30,000 troops, stationed in Dengzhou, which contains the meaning, Everyone is clear.
Su Tiancheng once invigorated the city in Jiangning County, but was later taken over by the imperial court, and then in the mutual market of Anningbao and Jingbian, the imperial court also intervened, and now, it is also fully taken over, and now it has extended its hand to Dengzhou, if it continues to retreat, maybe the next step will be extended to Quanzhou, Fujian and Taiwan, at this time, Su Tiancheng will not continue to retreat, it should be something to protect, it must be resolutely protected.
Dengzhou left Sun Yuankun, leading 10,000 soldiers of the Jiangning battalion to guard the base camp, and was in Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou. Recruiting sergeants, in terms of management mode, Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou are completely different from the models in other places in the Ming Dynasty, which is another management model implemented by Su Tiancheng, that is, a model for rapidly promoting economic development. This is somewhat similar to the capitalist development model, in Dengzhou and other places, merchants are respected, all kinds of large-scale workshops abound, dock transactions, promote the business of these workshops more prosperous, a lot of people have entered the workshop to do things, left on the land to cultivate not many people, to put it mildly. Land is no longer the most important means of accumulating money, and the governments at all levels in Dengzhou, Laizhou, and Qingzhou are very strict in their management of land transactions, and no one is allowed to annex land on a large scale, otherwise the government will intervene and directly recover the land. As a high-voltage line, no one is allowed to touch it.
This type of management model. Su Tiancheng also used Taiwan to strictly control land annexation and encourage farmers to farm. Efforts are underway to build a large-scale port in Taiwan. Su Tiancheng's idea was to implement a new type of state operation and management model in Dengzhou and Taiwan, if not for the restrictions on conquest. By this time, Su Tiancheng was ready to open a school to impart all kinds of knowledge, and there were a large number of Dutch, Spanish and Portuguese in Dengzhou and other places. These foreigners have a certain amount of scientific knowledge and are able to become qualified teachers.
At such a critical moment, Zhu Youzhen began to reach out to Dengzhou and other places, which was a big problem in front of Su Tiancheng.
At this moment, if you don't obey the orders of the imperial court, it is definitely inappropriate to do another set of fanfare, this is not in line with the current overall situation, Zhu Youzhen has a small belly, Su Tiancheng will not follow that, he needs to be responsible for history, and the elimination of the Golden Tartar is the most important task, and then it is necessary to clean up the Japanese and Koreans, and create a perfect external environment, in that case, the Ming Dynasty can better develop and become stronger. At this time, it was the Houjin Tartar that directly benefited from the imperial court, and the interests of the Ming Dynasty were damaged.
But Su Tiancheng must not let this situation develop, the 30,000 army led by Zhang Fengyi cannot play much role in Dengzhou, thinking about controlling Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou, it is almost impossible, but once such behavior is tolerated, there will be more things next, and Zhu Youzhen will think of more ways to constantly meddle in Dengzhou's affairs.
Su Tiancheng walked back and forth a few steps and spoke to Qu Qingze.
"Lao Qu, what do you think should be done about this matter, just say your opinion."
Qu Qingze's emotions were even more intense than Su Tiancheng's reaction, and after reading the letter, he even opened his mouth to scold, and at this moment Su Tiancheng opened his mouth to ask, Qu Qingze would definitely not be polite.
"My lord, the lower officials think, don't be polite this time, the lower officials have seen too many such things since they followed the adults, when the adults were in Jiangning County, the city was directly taken by the imperial court, Henan Mansion was built, the imperial court also took over, and Shaanxi Province, such a poor place, the adults worked hard, the construction was good, the imperial court also took it, Anning Fort and Jingbian, the imperial court got too much silver from the mutual market, the lower officials knew that the adults were all for the overall situation, but it always went on like this, Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou, It will also be completely controlled by the imperial court. ”
"Oh, what do you think I'm going to do with this?"
Qu Qingze thought for a moment and continued to speak.
"Xia Guan suggested, this time can not let the court so arranged, since Zhang Fengyi led the army stationed in Dengzhou, then it can be directly controlled by the adult, now the army is facing off in the Houjin Tartars, in terms of troops, the Houjin Tartars temporarily have an advantage, in this case, the adults can play to the court, implore the court to send more troops, so the court has no reason to refuse, if there is no army to send over, 30,000 troops can be stationed in Dengzhou, that is, the ready-made army, the lower official thinks, the army led by Zhang Fengyi, It can be stationed in Gaizhou and hold the city of Gaizhou, and the army of our Jiangning battalion can start the expedition, so that we can also concentrate our forces and form a major blow to the Houjin Tartars again. ”
Su Tiancheng nodded slightly, he also had this kind of thought, since Zhu Youzhen asked Zhang Fengyi to lead the army to be stationed in Dengzhou, this army can be called by itself, and the general will not be subject to the orders of the foreign monarchs, the reason is too easy to find, the tense situation in Haizhou, the Houjin Tartars have increased their troops, strengthened their control, etc., can all be used as reasons for grandeur, of course, there are certain problems in this, that is, Zhu Youzhen definitely does not have such ideas, let the 30,000 troops stationed in Dengzhou, in fact, he wants to control Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou, And then control the whole of Shandong.
"Lao Qu, what you said is right, this is the best way, but if the court doesn't mean this, what should I do."
Of course, Qu Qingze understands that the imperial court definitely doesn't mean this, but there are too many ways.
"My lord, the lower officials think that after Lord Zhang Fengyi led the army into Dengzhou, all the expenditure of money and grain must be controlled, and by controlling the expenditure of money and grain, first control this army, and then carry out small-scale transfers, such as mobilizing thousands of people at a time, and at the same time demarcating areas to restrain the actions of the army, doing such a thing, you can take your time."
A smile appeared on Su Tiancheng's face.
He needs to take care of both sides, on the one hand, to continue the campaign against Houjin Tarzi, and on the other hand, to protect Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou.
"Lao Qu, I consider letting you go back to Dengzhou, take full charge of the affairs of the Governor's Mansion, how to deal with Zhang Fengyi, I am afraid that Sun Yuankun will not be able to do a good job in this regard, you know all the situation, just follow the idea you said, take your time to disintegrate this army, I have already said, the next expedition, I am afraid it will be more cruel, the casualties will be very large, relying on the recruitment of sergeants from Dengzhou and other places, it is too late in time, the 30,000 people in front of you, if you can't make good use of it, then there is a problem."
"In addition, you have to pay attention to the fact that Zhang Fengyi has good qualifications and is completely loyal to the emperor, after you return to Dengzhou, try to live peacefully with him, if Zhang Fengyi uses the support of the imperial court to blindly come nonsense, you will find a way to squeeze him out."
"When Zhang Fengyi led the army to be stationed in Pyongyang, his reputation was not very good, and the sergeants below were not very clean, after all, North Korea was a subject country of my Ming Dynasty, and the hands and feet of these sergeants in Pyongyang were not clean, and the North Korean royal family would definitely not dare to say anything, but when it came to Dengzhou, these actions must not be possible, if someone stretches out his hand, he must implement military law, and he must not be soft."
"In short, the treatment of the army led by Zhang Fengyi is polite and courteous in the first stage, and they are not allowed to meddle in any affairs of Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou, and then they are divided and disintegrated.
"The meaning of the imperial court, you and I both understand, after you return to Dengzhou, you will start to arrange it immediately, don't wait for the will of the imperial court, I estimate that the imperial court will not have any will, the way is to rely on our own thinking, let you go back to Dengzhou to handle this matter, it is completely on my behalf, you have to be straightforward, no matter what problems arise, I will bear all the responsibility."
When Su Tiancheng said such words, it was a huge trust, Qu Qingze stood up, walked to Su Tiancheng and knelt down.
"My lord, the lower official resolutely completes the task, lives up to the trust of the adult, the lower official knows the current situation, if there is any problem, the lower official will take responsibility and will not implicate the adult."
Su Tiancheng helped Qu Qingze up.
"Lao Qu, don't say that, to describe it in an inelegant sentence, we are two grasshoppers on a rope, you are representing me in Dengzhou, no matter what happens, the responsibility is on my head, you have to remember, this time the matter is not trivial, it represents our attitude, from this incident, the court may also understand the meaning, in the future our road will not be smooth, since we have done it, then do it clean and thoroughly, and do things in the direction that is most beneficial to us."
