Chapter 363: Hands-on (2)
"Dongjiang Town and Jinning Defense Line use the word 'entanglement' against the enemy, this is against the Dongyu, and those Mongolian tribes outside the border wall, I am ready to sweep up, Mangui, Zhao led the ......," Yang Gai shouted.
"The minister is here." Man Gui and Zhao Shujiao agreed one after another.
"This time, the Mongolian right-wing will belong to you, I told you before how to fight the Mongolian right-wing tribes, do you remember?" Yang Gengai asked.
"Back to Your Majesty, remember, press the Imperial Army, let the Mongols fight the Mongols, we Ming Dynasty watched from the wall, and when the Imperial Allied Army really can't be defeated, we will go up, and before we have no certainty of victory, we will not shoot easily...... "Man Gui said with a big grin about how he was going to fight.
Yang Gai nodded, and said: "Yes, Man Gui is right, this time, your six thousand people, for the time being, don't divide into six thousand teams, gather into two teams of three thousand people, two or three hundred miles apart from each other, each other is horns, support each other, the goal this time, is the Mongolian tribes outside Xuanda, mainly based on the Karaqin tribe, clean up the list of tribes, the military intelligence bureau will be responsible for you, where the tribes are located, the people of the military intelligence bureau will also give you guidance, your task is to clean up these tribes, these tribes, According to reliable sources, it has been completely thrown into the east, which can be described as the enemy of our dynasty, so you can't be soft on the enemy, in addition to suppressing the imperial alliance army to fight, you must also summarize the merits of the imperial alliance army for this battle, if you win, according to the merit afterwards, there will be different rewards, you can allocate some pastures for them to graze, of course, the territory that has been beaten down is mine, I just temporarily let them graze there, this point, let them remember it incomparably...... In the future, it will soon enter the industrial society, and the threat of nomads will become history, so for the pastures and grasslands that the Ming Dynasty did not look down on and thought were chicken ribs, now, Yang Reform is also looking at it, the ownership of this land must be obtained, it is all resources, and in a hundred years, Russia even looks at the kind of place as far away as East Siberia, and Yang Reform has no reason to give up the territory close to Beijing.
"I understand." Man Gui agreed.
"This time, General Zhao Shujiao is your general backup, but you don't go out, stationed at Xifengkou, if you feel that there is danger, or you can't fight, you can ask General Zhao Shujiao for help, hehe, General Zhao Shujiao owes you a favor, if you fall into danger again this time, General Zhao Shujiao will come to the rescue in person, haha......" Yang Reform snorted. As for why it is stationed at Xifengkou, it is very simple, this is the place where the wild boar skin will enter the customs for the first time in the future, so naturally you have to familiarize yourself with it first, the wild boar skin can enter the customs from here, and you can also get out of the customs from here.
Man Gui touched his head embarrassedly. Zhao Shujiao was also embarrassed.
“…… You set off at the end of this month, arrive at Xifengkou, at the beginning of September, Mangui out of the customs, the time to clean up is about three months, the reorganized Imperial Army, contact the tribes to join the Imperial Army, will be responsible for the contact for you, whether you have cleaned up or not, at the end of November, before the heavy snow comes, in addition, I have prepared some spare places for you, you do not necessarily have to enter the customs at Xifengkou for repair, if necessary, you can rest or enter the customs in these spare places. Yang said.
"I understand." Man Gui and Zhao Shujiao happily agreed. For this kind of thing, they are happy, pressing the Mongols to fight the Mongols, without having to play in person, where to find this kind of good thing? What's more, the Mongolian right wing, especially the Karaqin Department, has been killed by Lin Dan Khan, and now, there are not many people, some have taken refuge in the Ming Dynasty, some have taken refuge in the Eastern Captives, and some are waiting and watching, pressing the tribes that have taken refuge in the Ming Dynasty to fight those tribes that have taken refuge in the Eastern Captives, that is, to use the Mongols to consume the Mongols.
"Your Majesty, but the minister has a question, if we clean up the Karaqin Department this time, what if other departments come to help them? For example, Tumut or Voldus, the tribes? Zhao Shujiao asked a question.
"This? Simple, it is also the reason why you are asked to clean up the Karaqin Department this time, the Karaqin Department is far away from the Xuanda of our dynasty, there is no strong reinforcements around to help, the east and the south are surrounded by our dynasty, the north is Lin Dan Khan, the west is the Tumut Ministry, Tumut himself is now beaten by Lin Dan Khan, if you want to help the Karaqin Ministry, it is also powerless, but the Wo'er Dusi Ministry, there is almost no loss, but it is possible to aid the Karaqin Ministry, however, the Vol Erdu Si Ministries are too far away from the Karaqin Ministry, In the middle, there are Tumut tribes, and when they come all the way, the matter has already become a foregone conclusion, which is also the reason why I sent General Zhao to garrison Xifengkou, if Tumut or Wo'er Dusi troops come to help, General Zhao can appropriately block, intercept, delay, and create conditions for General Manchu to clean up Karaqin,...... Therefore, I have chosen the Karaqin tribes this time......" Yang explained. ,
"I understand, thank you for your understanding." The doubts in Zhao Shujiao's heart were solved, and he replied respectfully.
"Okay, that's all for Mongolia, how to fight, what is the terrain, how the forces are distributed, there will be a staff department to send someone to provide you with reference, and I will send a supervisor to record your march and battle process." Yang Reform stuffed the staff into it again, and in the future, the staff officers will become the permanent officers of each army, as for the supervision army, the Ming Dynasty has always used it, and Yang Reform also decided to use it, of course, the supervision army is now only responsible for recording, not responsible for pointing fingers.
"Commandment." Man Gui and Zhao Shujiao agreed again.
"Okay, this offensive, that's about it, is there a problem with the cabinet?" Yang Gengai asked.
Several people in the cabinet did not speak, saying that they had no opinion, in fact, they couldn't say anything, Sun Chengzong was silent.
Seeing that the cabinet had no opinion, Yang Reform said, "Is there a problem with the military department?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, there is no problem here at all, and I fully support Your Majesty's decision." Liu Yanyuan, the secretary of the military department, immediately agreed, he could not object to the emperor's arrangement, and he was still counting on his tenure to solve the Dongyu and the Mongols, and to be a Zhongxing minister.
"Do the other ministries still have problems?" Yang asked again.
The Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Crime, and the Ministry of Rites all said that there was no problem, and there was no problem with this kind of thing, the Cabinet and the Ministry of War, what could they say? The current emperor is not easy to fool, and what he says is not to the point, so he will inevitably make the emperor laugh at it.
Only the household, Bi Ziyan asked: "Your Majesty, the minister has no objection to this arrangement, I just want to ask Your Majesty, now that the household has no silver, these expenses are ......" Bi Ziyan's voice was very small, when it came to business, he always had to say that the household had no silver, which made him feel very ashamed, this time, the emperor had to pay for it again.
Yang Gai smiled and said: "This is simple, come out of my inner pocket, I have prepared enough silver for this offensive, hehe, I am now letting out the words, pension, reward, military salary, burning, I will not be less, fight well, everyone has a reward, even the cooking guy, I have a lot of silver, it depends on whether the soldiers have the ability to take it......" Yang Gai looked like a large amount of money, and said there that he had a lot of silver. In fact, now Yang Reform is still living by borrowing money from the bank, and next month he is still counting on Liulizhai's stock to sell silver, which is a super surface light.
The emperor's statement, those ministers, generals, and young generals, their eyes lit up, everyone knew that the emperor had a lot of silver, since the emperor had spoken, then this war would be out of the emperor's pocket, Bi Ziyan felt very ashamed, it was another thing to let the emperor pay for his own money, when would the emperor not be allowed to pay for the silver? When will the household department of the Ming Dynasty be able to do something to pay for their own money?
Man Gui and Zhao Shujiao looked even more eager to try. The young players are even brighter-eyed.
"Okay, that's all for today's combat meeting, big companion, copy a copy of the content of this combat meeting, and send it to Mao Wenlong, Yuan Chonghuan and Liu Jishan, so that they can start acting at the same time at the beginning ......of September, and I want to start a war on these thousands of miles of fronts at the same time, and I want to catch Dongyu off guard."
"The slave obeys." Wang Chengen agreed.
Everyone was also full of confidence in the emperor. This kind of arrangement of the mechanism is exhausted, and if you still lose, it will be unreasonable. Others began to imagine the future defeat of the Eastern.
From the strategic conception, to the improvement, to the prior arrangement, and now that the offensive has finally been officially launched, Yang Reform breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and the war with Dongyu was finally officially launched. From the initial confusion, to the anxious waiting, calculating, and now setting a specific offensive, Yang Gai feels that the emperor he is has begun to mature, which is completely different from the jerky when he first came to the Ming Dynasty.
The meeting broke up.
Yang Gai wore a chicken wing by himself, focused on barbecue there, and looked at the roasted golden and charred chicken wings, Yang Gai swallowed his saliva.
The other ministers were all dispersed, and Sun Chengzong remained here.
Seeing that the emperor ignored him, Sun Chengzong also wore a chicken wing and roasted it there.
"Master Sun, do you think there are any omissions in my arrangement this time?" Yang Gengai looked at the chicken wings dripping with oil and asked.
"Back to Your Majesty, Your Majesty's arrangement this time is very proper, and there are no major omissions, on all fronts, Your Majesty still needs to delegate power to the chief officials of various places, so that they can deal with it according to the situation, the capital is too far away from the front line, and it is not appropriate to rely on Your Majesty to make decisions here." Sun Chengzong thought about it and said. ,
"Well, I understand this, I will write letters to Mao Wenlong, Yuan Chonghuan, and Liu Jishan, tell them the precautions, and authorize them to make temporary decisions, hehe, I am willing to delegate power, what I want is the result, and the process can be less careful." Yang Gengai said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, the minister has nothing to say, the reason why Liaodong was defeated back then, and most of them were defeated at this point, when the front line was fighting, it could not be cut off at the right time, and everything needed to be instructed, but the capital was far away, the Son of Heaven, the cabinet ministers did not understand the situation far away from the pass, so that our dynasty had such a big defeat, hurt the vitality, and now Your Majesty can delegate power, the minister thinks that this battle has an eighty percent chance of winning." Sun Chengzong thought about it and said calmly.
"Hehe, as soon as Master Sun said this, I was relieved." Yang said with a smile.
Sun Chengzong frowned and thought about it, and felt that it was better to ask, so he said: "Your Majesty, there is another matter, the minister should not have said, but it is related to the success or failure of the war, and the minister has to ask." ”
"Hehe, Master Sun has to ask if there is anything, there is nothing I can't say to Master Sun." Yang Gengai said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, this time on a front of thousands of miles, the military expenses required are very expensive, although it is only a few months, the minister will calculate it slightly, I am afraid that it will not be less than a million taels Your Majesty, this military cost?" Although Sun Chengzong was not very clear about the emperor's money bag, he also knew that the emperor's expenses were huge, and the internal money was spent like running water, and the internal money was afraid that there was not much left, so he was so worried.
"At this point, Master Sun rest assured, since I said that I will pay for the silver, I will naturally not be short of the military expenses, hehe, a million taels of silver, I can still get it,...... Hehe, to put it mildly, Master Sun doesn't have confidence in my ability to manipulate silver? Yang Reform said with a smile.
Speaking of the emperor's means of making money, Sun Chengzong felt that ten of himself was not as good as an emperor, and the little worry in his heart was completely gone, his brows relaxed, and he squeezed out some tiny, and said: "Then the minister can rest assured, the odds of winning this war have been achieved." ”
……
Zhu Chunchen, the Duke of Chengguo, has been very lively these days, and he is always smiling when he meets people, and he always has a word in his mouth. "It's up, it's up."
At the beginning, he spent 1,000 taels of silver to buy those stocks, but now, he has sold 1,200 taels of silver a piece, a stock, and he made 200 taels of silver for nothing, this way of making money makes Zhu Chunchen smile from ear to ear every day, which is much better than counting on the harvest in the field.
Every day, Zhu Chunchen will move out the stock and calculate how much money he has earned, this kind of easy way to make a lot of money makes Zhu Chunchen feel that his vision is very good.
Zhang Guoji has become more and more irritable in the past few days. The more he sells the stock, the more the stock rises. The higher the stock, the less stock he has.
At the beginning, he was afraid that the emperor would pit his money, but as a result, he sold it to someone else, and now he sees that the stock has risen, and he regrets it, and he can't stop complaining, if he sells it later, how much more money can he make?
A few days ago, his daughter Empress Yi'an had already told him that the last stocks were close to him, and if he still wanted stocks, he could only find His Majesty. Zhang Guoji hesitated, should he find the emperor? The emperor has a lot of opportunities, if he knows that he wants to earn his money and goes to him, he is afraid that he will have to be scolded, thinking about the emperor's methods, Zhang Guoji hesitated again. But the silver was like a cat's paw scratching my heart, and it was uncomfortable.
Today, Zhang Guoji, who was scratched so much that he couldn't stand it, still went to his daughter's place, but as a result, his daughter still asked him to find the emperor, and between the words, it seemed that his daughter had greeted the emperor, and it seemed that he was a little eyebrow-raising, so Zhang Guoji had the courage to go to the emperor again.
In the Qianqing Palace.
Yang Reform is dealing with political affairs.
"Your Majesty, Zhang Guoji, Zhang Dudu is here." Wang Chengen reported in a whisper.
"Coming?" Yang Reform couldn't help but smile in his heart, this bait has been released for so long, and it has finally been hooked.
"Back to Your Majesty, I'm here." Wang Chengen confirmed.
"Hehehe, I'll see you when I come." Yang Gai closed the music and prepared to meet the hooked fish.
……
"Minister Zhang Guoji, long live my emperor, long live, long live." Zhang Guoji saw that the emperor's face was good, so he dared to kowtow.
"Get up, in-laws, are you looking for me?" Yang Gengai asked with a smile. [I don't know if the in-laws are wrong. 】
Before Zhang Guoji came, he was instructed by his daughter to mention this matter to the emperor, and the emperor already knew about it, so let him go to the emperor himself. ,
Zhang Guoji said boldly: "Your Majesty, the minister came today to share his worries for His Majesty, I heard that His Majesty wants to sell the shares of Liulizhai, and the minister is willing to pay to buy it." After Zhang Guoji finished speaking, he felt panicked, lying to this point, he couldn't resist even if he was thick-skinned.
"Hahaha......" Yang Gengai burst out laughing. Zhang Guoji hurriedly lowered his head.
“…… Hehe, in-laws, what you said, the imperial sister-in-law has already mentioned it to me, saying that you want to buy Liulizhai stocks, right? The imperial sister-in-law is kind to me, this little thing is not a problem. Yang Gai said with a generous look.
Zhang Guoji saw that the emperor was so easy to speak, and the stone in his heart fell, after all, the emperor still looked at his daughter's face, and the emperor still valued human affection.
"Back to Your Majesty, yes." Zhang Guoji saw that the matter was opened, and he no longer carried any signs of worrying about it, and directly admitted that he was here to buy stocks.
"Well, this matter, a small matter, the imperial sister-in-law mentioned it to me, and I will naturally agree, but the stock of Liulizhai is valuable, and I can't give it away in vain, so let's give it one thousand and one tael, and I will sell you some." Yang Gai began to do the wholesale business of stocks.
"Ah, Your Majesty, isn't it a thousand taels and one piece?" Zhang Guoji looked at the emperor with some disappointment and asked silently.
"Hehehe, in-laws, now the outside stock sells for 1,200 taels, I give you 1,100 taels, you can earn 100 taels if you change hands, if you can sell 100 taels a day, you can earn 10,000 taels, hehe, this is also a lot of money."
In the face of the shrewd emperor, Zhang Guoji didn't know what to say, he was afraid that the emperor would get angry if he said it was heavy, and it was useless to say it lightly.
When Zhang Guoji was hesitating, Yang Reform said again: "In-laws, since you don't want to, then, so let's do it, I do plan to sell a batch of Liulizhai stocks recently, and I am still lacking someone to help me Zhang Luo, and I am not good to find someone outside, after the imperial sister-in-law knows, I recommended my in-laws, I feel that the imperial sister-in-law is kind to me, and the in-laws are their own people, I can be trusted, if the in-laws are willing, I can let the in-laws sell the shares of Liulizhai, and for each one sold, I will give the in-laws a five-point tap, how about it?" ”
For the sale of the emperor's stocks, Zhang Guoji's head is big, and he has never heard of such a thing.
Seeing that Zhang Guoji was hesitating, Yang Reform added to the fire and said: "The shares I sold this time are worth about five million taels, and if the in-laws have the ability to sell them all, they can get at least two hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver." ”
Zhang Guoji swallowed his saliva, 250,000 taels of silver was a lot of money, he naturally knew.
"Don't worry, I have a lot of respect for the imperial sister-in-law, naturally I won't harm the in-laws, if there is something, I will bear it for the in-laws, if it is someone else, I can't believe it, that is, the imperial sister-in-law recommended it, I will consider it, otherwise, this kind of thing of giving money to others is impossible to fall on others."
The emperor's assurances and words moved Zhang Guoji, how the current Son of Heaven ascended to the throne, everyone understands that his daughter Empress Yi'an has made a great contribution to it, so it is reasonable for the emperor to take care of their family. If you want to harm him, you can't do it, and after thinking about it, Zhang Guoji nodded hard again. promised: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister is willing." ”
"Well, since the in-laws agreed, then, I will remind the in-laws in advance that the matter of selling stocks must be kept confidential, if the in-laws can't do the word confidentiality, there is no way to talk about selling stocks, can the in-laws be kept secret?"
"Back to Your Majesty, Chencan." Zhang Guoji said with difficulty, there was a feeling of getting on a thief ship, but at this time, he couldn't get off the ship.
