Chapter 677: Inheritance
Look at the emergency report in your hand.
Advance eastward and westward.
Yang Reform has a lot of indescribable feelings, this war is really going to start, Yang Reform should be excited, excited or nervous, scared, but it feels more and more boring, this strategizing is a good thing to say is strategizing, to put it "ahead" a little, it is no different from playing a game, and it is a game that is about to end. It is no longer a difficult thing to win this war according to the path that he has conceived in advance, and there is no challenge left.
"Big companion, summon cabinet ministers, Jiuqing and other platforms to discuss matters." Yang Reform said tastelessly. Although the war has just begun, Yang Reform has no interest in him, this matter, has not aroused much passion for Yang Reform, this matter is difficult at the beginning, difficult in the layout, now the situation has been completed, the general trend has been established, what we have to do now is just to complete the rest of the work step by step, and doing things step by step is what Yang Reform likes to do the most, it is really boring.
"Slave and maid obey the order," Wang Chengen happily agreed.
β¦β¦
Platform. Quite a few people came.
The ministers gathered together and stood on this platform to the fullest.
After a simple salute, Yang Reform directly said the right thing. Now that there is prestige, prestige, silver, the army, the army that executes his will, the new equipment, weapons, and technology are much higher than the opponent, there is really nothing worth fighting for, Yang Reform feels like one thing, tasteless.
"The latest urgent report from Liaodong, Lin Dan Khan retreated back to the old nest of Baicheng, and the east and the west have entered, and now the alliance between our dynasty and Lin Dan Khan in Jinning has failed, and the east has entered the grassland, and all the ministers will discuss it." Yang Reform said boringly.
The ministers made an "uproar" and heated discussions. There are joyful, indifferent, and fearful, and each has a different look.
Yang Reform is a little tasteless, the countermeasures for this matter have already been fully planned in the General Staff, this matter, there is no need to discuss it here, these people don't understand the military, they all seem to be laymen, what can a layman say? But the rules of the Ming Dynasty are indeed like this, if you don't change the rules, this matter still has to be taken out and discussed with the ministers, Yang Reform feels a little boring, and even feels that he is a little hypocritical. It's not a matter of your own words? This thing is still going through the motions, going through the motions, how boring it is .......
Yang Gai felt that everyone was talking about it, and pressed his hand down. The ministers immediately fell silent, and the emperor was about to speak.
"Ladies and gentlemen, since they have all discussed it, let's talk about it." Yang Reform said boringly.
"Back to Your Majesty, I think ......" The first person to speak was still Shi Fenglai, as for what to say, you definitely can't expect a microphone to say any profound insights.
The ministers expressed their opinions in turn. It's nothing more than the east and the west into the grassland, how dangerous the Ming is, and you have to beware of the east and knock on the pass, this is the mainstream understanding.
Yang Gai was bored listening to it, but he still had to pretend to listen carefully.
After all the ministers had spoken, Yang Reform pressed his hand again, and the ministers quieted down again and looked at the emperor.
"What does Master Sun think about this?" Yang Reform has to follow the "established" routine, which is really boring.
As soon as the emperor spoke, all the ministers knew that this was the main master, and this was the person who was talking about the right thing, and they all looked at Sun Chengzong, who basically didn't speak in the court.
"Returning to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the Nine Sides and Gyeonggi should immediately enter a state of combat readiness and prepare for war and defense." Sun Chengzong said unhurriedly.
"Yes, Master Sun continued." Yang Gai said again.
ββ¦β¦ All the units of the Imperial Allied Army should be gathered and gathered against the side wall of our face to prevent them from being broken by the Eastern Captives...... Be prepared to face the Dongyu on a large scale......" Sun Chengzong said.
ββ¦β¦ In addition to strengthening the defense of the border walls and cities, all units of the border army should also assemble and organize a group of horse troops to prepare to assist the new army in combat......"
ββ¦β¦ The new army should immediately enter a state of combat readiness and be ready to attack at any time to intercept the ...... of the Eastern Prisoners who may come to knock on the pass, Your Majesty, a great battle ......has come," Sun Chengzong said. β¦,
"Well, Master Sun is right......" Yang Reform said, this is actually a passing scene, in fact, Yang Reform himself used more power, far more than these, the intelligence department has never stopped, grain and grass, military funds, consumables, etc. have been gathering, troops, leading generals have also been deployed, are preparing for this big war, far from what Sun Chengzong said, if you also add some invisible things, such as boosting the morale of the officers and soldiers, courage, the desire to get out of the plug, these invisible things, Yang reformed the preparation of more things for this war, if you add the economy attached to the military, this matter is a more complicated project, these are impossible to negotiate in the court, if you discuss in the court can do these things well, this can only be said that the war is too unprofessional.
ββ¦β¦ Since the war is coming, then I should be fully prepared, and I should be so ......," Master Sun continued, ......" Yang Gai said again.
ββ¦β¦ Your Majesty, in addition to defending against the Dongyu, you should also squeeze the Dongyu's lair, so that the Dongyu will not dare to go west with all their might, and let the Dongyu have some scruples......" Sun Chengzong said.
"Well, what does Master Sun mean, to fight the nest of Dongyu?" Yang Reform performed.
"Back to Your Majesty, yes, however, now that it is the month of Layue, there must be no big war this year, in order to prevent the Donglu from recovering his vitality, the minister advises His Majesty to attack the nest of the Dongyu in the coming year, so that even if the Dongyu occupies the territory on the grassland now, there is no way to recover the vitality...... Sun Chengzong said.
Yang Reform is just like that, and I will talk to Sun Chengzong about Liaodong one sentence.
"Master Sun is right, this seems to be necessary, the military department is here?" Yang asked again.
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister is here." Yuan Chonghuan immediately stood up.
"What does the Ministry of War think about this?" Yang asked Gengai.
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Liaodong has to deal with the Dongyu, Jixuan wants to prevent the Dongyu from knocking on the pass, Datong Shaanxi wants to guard against the Mongolian right-wing tribes from making trouble, and the imperial court should send a superintendent and a governor to the nine-sided, thousands of miles away, so that the soldiers and horses can have a general dispatch and command properly......," Yuan Chonghuan said.
The statement of the Great War of Ten Thousand Miles made some ministers exclaim, if you don't move, you will move, and if you move, it will be a Great War of Ten Thousand Miles. It's a bit surprising, but more ministers don't seem to be surprised.
Speaking of this, the eyes of the ministers looked at Sun Chengzong with envy, who else could there be besides Sun Chengzong? After this battle, he will become famous, and he will definitely leave his name in history one day. Thinking of this matter is none other than Sun Chengzong, the ministers have no choice but to envy, this matter, in fact, everyone knows that there is no need to fight, it will definitely be Sun Chengzong, others want to be this governor, it is impossible, the first one will not be able to pass the emperor's pass. Looking at Sun Chengzong, who doesn't speak on weekdays, everyone can only envy in addition to envy, the old emperor party is envious, but also gratified, the imperial party is all promising, the new emperor party is not only envious, but also more envious, thinking about how to make the emperor look at it, and strive to do some errands like the old emperor party, he is young and famous. The ministers looked at the emperor with a sense of hope.
"Yes, Dongyu's move, I really have to fight on the nine sides, thousands of miles away, this really needs a supervisor, so who does the Yuan Qing family think is suitable?" Yang asked Gengai.
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Sun Ge Lao is the most suitable." Yuan Chonghuan immediately said, but without the slightest hesitation, he knew the inside story of these things, knew that except for Sun Chengzong, it was impossible for anyone else to be the supervisor, and the one who could serve as the supervisor must be an imperial party, must understand military affairs, can subdue all departments, and must make the emperor trustworthy, who else can there be besides Sun Chengzong?
"What do you think?" Yang asked Gengai.
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this matter should be served by Sun Ge Lao, Sun Ge Lao is highly respected and has the ability to lead troops in battle, and Sun Ge Lao is the most suitable to take office...... "Someone immediately came out in favor.
"Returning to Your Majesty, Praise the Ministers......"
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this is none other than Sun Ge Lao......"
To be honest, everyone knows that this matter seems to be a formality, but it didn't come out to challenge.
"Well, since all of you think it's okay, then I will appoint Master Sun as the governor, and take full charge of the nine sides and the battle of ten thousand miles." Yang Reform said that Sun Chengzong's position was basically determined, and as for the formal appointment, there will definitely be many titles, such as the secretary of the military department, the supervisor of a certain place, a certain place, a certain place, and so on. β¦,
Sun Chengzong didn't hesitate too much, and immediately agreed, this battle of 10,000 miles is definitely the highest peak in his life, this record can definitely be ranked in the Ming Dynasty and even the entire history.
When the matter fell, all the ministers were envious, some people were depressed, some people were lonely, and some people expected themselves to become Sun Chengzong in the future.
"Is the household department available?" Yang asked again.
"The minister is here." Bi Ziyan immediately stood up and agreed.
"In this 10,000-mile war, the rise and fall of my Ming Dynasty's glory and disgrace is in one fell swoop, in terms of grain, grass, and salary, the household department must be prepared, but is there a problem?" Yang asked Gengai.
"Back to Your Majesty, there is no problem, the minister guarantees to supply enough grain and grass, and it will not miss my Ming Dynasty's social service, Your Majesty can rest assured." Bi Ziyan said with some excitement that he was proud of his colleagues when he saw that his colleagues were about to become famous. Speaking of grain, Bi Ziyan knows, the actual emperor has been laying out early, grain and grass have already begun to prepare a year or two ago, and recently it has been a large-scale delivery of grain to the border passes, and it is even more prepared, his household department is actually just a helper, as for the salary, his household department is even more a helper, this side of the customs war, the expenditure is as high as kilowatts, his household is to pay all the money received this year is not enough, in fact, it still depends on the emperor.
"Good...... This matter is related to the rise and fall of my Ming Dynasty, all the Qing family, all ministries, and all yamen should be fully assisted, not to make difficulties, slack off this matter...... he will destroy the East and consolidate the country, you are all heroes of the Ming Dynasty...... "Yang Reform concluded.
"The ministers obey," the ministers shouted.
This should actually be a scene full of passion, but in fact, Yang Reform is still a little boring, step-by-step, no pressure, no motivation, where is the passion? It's like playing a strategy game......
β¦β¦
The meeting was dismissed.
Yang Reform called Sun Chengzong, Shi Fenglai, and Han Yi to the warm pavilion of the Qianqing Palace for a smaller discussion. These three are all ministers with considerable energy, in fact, Sun Chengzong and Han Yi are more energetic, and Shi Fenglai still occupies the light of the first assistant, otherwise, he may not have considerable energy with these two.
"A few Qing family are exempt ......from courtesy," Yang said after a simple salute.
Several ministers looked at the emperor, not knowing what the emperor had come to them for. It seems that they are all the emperor's henchmen, but in fact there is a difference, Sun Chengzong is the real henchman, Shi Fenglai is the microphone, Han Yi is at most half of the emperor's party, and several people glanced at each other and looked at the emperor again.
"I summoned a few secretaries to discuss one thing,...... A few Qing family members take a look at this ......" Yang Reform took out a notebook and gave it to Shi Fenglai.
Shi Feng came to see it, and then showed it to Sun Chengzong, and Sun Chengzong saw it, and then showed it to Han Yi.
"What do you think about this?" Yang Gengai saw that several people had read the manuscript and asked.
Shi Fenglai couldn't make up his mind about this sudden thing, did he agree to this matter? Or in the negative? How to agree? How to deny it? It depends on whether this thing is right or wrong, and how to judge whether this thing is good or bad? Shi Fenglai was confused, but think about it again, this Hong Chengchou is also a member of the imperial party, he was born in Shaanxi to grow sweet potatoes, and now he is the governor of Liaodong, and he is even more valued by His Majesty, and he should be regarded as a member of the imperial party.
"Returning to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is necessary to strengthen the management ......of household registration outside the Guan, and the people outside the Guanxi have guns, and the minister feels that it is also necessary," Shi Feng said. The matter in this recital is Hong Chengchou's recital on strengthening the household registration in Liaodong and the management of guns, saying that whether they immigrate in the future or go to Liaodong to do things, the people of the Ming Dynasty need to learn to use guns, and they must have a certain ability to defend themselves, that is, to make the officers permanent and strengthened, of course, the management of guns must involve a household registration issue, so it is about household registration and guns. The actual household registration also involves the issue of taxation, and the strengthening of household registration management actually secretly still says that tax management should be strengthened, so that everyone has to pay taxes, and do not hide the population to evade taxes.
"Returning to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the people outside the customs are holding guns, judging from the current situation, it is necessary, and the effect is not bad, and hiding troops in the people is also beneficial to our dynasty's control of Liaodong......" Sun Chengzong also held a positive attitude. β¦,
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that now in order to deal with the Eastern Captives, in order to guard against the Mongols, the military outside the Guanxi is under control, and the people can naturally hold guns, but if the Eastern Captives are cleared in the future, if the people are still allowed to hold guns, I am afraid that it will not be easy to discipline the people" Han Yi said some different opinions.
"Isn't there a threat if you sweep away the Eastern Captives? Even if I fight this battle of 10,000 miles now, at most it is just to sweep away the Dongyu, sweep away Lin Dan Khan and the Mongolian right-wing tribes, between the white mountains and black waters of Liaodong, I heard that there are still a lot of Jurchens, even if they are Dongyu, they may not be able to control them, the north of Liaodong, there are Mongolian tribes in the Mobei grassland, the former Nuergan Dusi of my dynasty, Liaodong will become a familiar land in the future, it is inevitable to be spied on, if the people do not retain their blood, have no weapons for self-defense, and do not hold an overwhelming posture against those barbarians, wouldn't they have to raise a Dongyu again? Yang asked rhetorically.
"Your Majesty has a point...... Han Yi was taught a lesson by the emperor and told him to forgive him again and again.
ββ¦β¦ There is also the current Imperial Cooperative Army, does the Qing family think that they are living in peace now, and they will be in peace in the future? I'm afraid that it may not be, if my Ming Dynasty does not hold an overwhelming posture against them, they will cause trouble sooner or later, and those Mongols who want to suppress the Imperial Association Army in our dynasty cannot always rely on the new army, in case the new army can't be suppressed one day, isn't there a slaughterhouse outside this pass that wants to become my people's people? Only by letting the people have their own weapons, have the ability to defend themselves, and keep suppressing the Mongols, can I rest assured that those who are not of my race will have different hearts, and I have to guard against them," Yang continued.
"Your Majesty has to teach you a ......" Han Yi began to sweat and continued to forgive, but he didn't expect to be taught by the emperor for so long in a word.
ββ¦β¦ I'd rather the people be more difficult to control; I'd rather let a foreigner die a thousand times, ten thousand times, than let my people be bullied, and I wouldn't want to watch them ......die," Yang continued. Just kidding, colonization is not allowed to hold weapons, it is not allowed to hold muskets, so how can colonize? Do you pay lip service? Do you rely on forbearance? Colonization is the cannibalism of naked people, grabbing territory, without weapons, how can they do without blood? Today's Liaodong at most belongs to Jilin in the future, part of Liaoning, Heilongjiang to the north, and Siberia north of Heilongjiang, these territories are not snatched back, Yang Reform will scold himself to death, to regain and occupy these places, the power of the state to do this must be thankless, the force invested must be quite weak, to occupy, to maintain these places more or rely on the common people, this is even more unable to collect guns.
"Your Majesty has to teach you a ......" Han Yi secretly sighed unlucky, but if he said the wrong word, he was taught to this extent.
Yang Reform taught Han Yi a lesson for a while, and couldn't help but think of Hong Chengchou, this book on Hong Chengchou was not "instigated" by Yang Reform, Hong Chengchou could think of these things in advance, and secretly fit his own intentions, Yang Reform's feeling about Hong Chengchou is: Sure enough, he is a historical celebrity, and he still has a few brushes.
"Han Qing's family is not strange, I said it a little heavily." Yang reformed the lesson and played Han Yi, and eased the atmosphere a little.
"Your Majesty has taught you a lesson, and it was the ministers who were negligent." Han Yi hurriedly replied, Han Yi was very depressed.
ββ¦β¦ Hong Chengchou said this thing, I believe you have also seen it, talking about household registration management, guns, in fact, or involved in the future Liaodong to buy land, I mean, Liaodong's land, no longer let the people reclaim by themselves, but by the imperial court to sell, only the land bought, with the title deed, is considered their own, to have a land deed, you have to pay taxes, you have to truthfully register the household registration, you have to implement the household registration, and the matching thing is that the people with my Ming household registration can buy, hold guns and other rights, so as to ensure the peace of Liaodong, to put it simply, The imperial court must receive the taxes that should be collected, otherwise, I can't stand this huge expense, and it is impossible to invest such a huge amount of military spending on the border outside the customs every year...... "Yang Reform began to implement his own policy, looking for these three cabinet ministers, because these ministers each represent a part of the forces, Sun Chengzong will not say it, the hardcore imperial party, military planning, Shi Fenglai is the light of the first assistant, in fact, it is also the imperial party, and Han Yi represents his group of people, in fact, there is still an important group of people in the court, That is, Chen Yuting's gang, but Chen Yuting's weight is not enough, Yang Reform feels that this matter has to be communicated with Cao Yubian in a secret box, although Cao Yubian is retired, he still has considerable influence, and it is better to persuade Cao Yubian than to persuade Chen Yuting. This matter is explained by these three factions, and there is no resistance. β¦,
Sun Chengzong already knew about it, so naturally he would not be surprised.
Shi Fenglai was a little surprised, but not very surprised, he naturally supported the emperor.
Han Yi was a little surprised, only a little surprised, and soon returned to normal.
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this should be no problem......" Han Yi was a little angry, he had just been scolded by the emperor, and he didn't dare to say anything to make the emperor unhappy, the sale of land in Liaodong is not a secret, this should be the emperor's complete sealing of the fantasy of those who want to recover Liaodong and occupy land in Liaodong for nothing, otherwise, the emperor spent so much energy to buy land in Liaodong, wouldn't it be blown? Han Yi saw that Sun and Shi didn't speak, and knew that the emperor forced him to make a statement, so he agreed without too much hesitation.
"Well, Han Qing's family still has a sense of the overall situation, and this matter is also good for me, and it is also for the good of the people,......" Yang Gengai saw that Han Yi had been dealt with, and he put his mind at ease.
ββ¦β¦ Speaking of which, in this matter of the 10,000-mile war, I actually wanted Yuan Chonghuan to serve as Master Sun's deputy, but think about it, Yuan Qing's family is too young, and he suddenly mentioned such a high position, I am afraid that it will not be conducive to future growth, and I still need to hone more, and I will naturally have the achievements of Yuan Qing's family in the future......" Yang Reform saw that Han Yi had been settled, and he might as well take out some benefits and feed Han Yi a sweet date.
"Your Majesty." Han Yi had to reply.
Shi Fenglai was rarely distracted, and it was rare that his mind was not here with the emperor. Sun Chengzong seems to have a special impression of that Lu Xiangsheng, and simply regards him as his heir; Looking at today, the heir of this Han Yi's mantle seems to be Yuan Chonghuan, they are the relationship between the teacher and the protΓ©gΓ©, so what about his heir? And who? He also had the day when he returned to his hometown, remembering the book he read today, and remembering that the man also started by planting sweet potatoes, and it seemed to be involved in the affairs he was in charge of, did he use that person as a successor? β¦β¦οΌ
