Chapter 432: The Minister and the Xiǎo General

In the past few days, the entire Ming Dynasty has been immersed in the carnival of victory.

Yang Reform is no exception, the whole person has a lot of energy, and he has enough energy to deal with the government and politics, and he goes to work on time every day and handles political affairs diligently.

Today, Yang Reform is even more divine.

Xu Guangqi came with good news there, Shaanxi's sweet potatoes are about to be harvested, it is estimated that the harvest is quite abundant, according to the original estimate, 100,000 stone is not a problem, Xu Guangqi specially explained this situation, in addition to explaining the situation, is to ask, what to do after urging.

After Yang Reform knew the news, he jumped up with joy, this sweet potato is really a good thing against the sky, in this kind of famine year, it can actually be harvested against the trend, which undoubtedly shows that sweet potato is a magic weapon to fight drought, undoubtedly shows that the drought and famine problem at the end of the Ming Dynasty has met the nemesis, and it has been proved that sweet potato is worth promoting in a large area, and it is worth forcibly promoting. This is undoubtedly a very important thing for oneself, and it is a very happy thing, so what remains is to forcibly promote and plant sweet potatoes.

"These days, it's really a double happiness," Yang said beautifully. In the past few days, not only the news of the victory of Zhenjiang Fort has come, but also this kind of even more happy news, and Yang Reform is so happy that he can't find the north.

"Your Majesty Hongfu, God bless me Daming" Wang Chengen smiled and flattered, this is a smile from the heart, looking at the emperor's suffering a few days ago, he naturally understands how happy the emperor is these days.

"Hahaha......" Yang laughed.

The team of infantry went straight to the Wenhua Palace.

As every day, shout long live before the deliberations begin.

"There is a great joy today, guess what." As soon as Yang Reform began, he talked about it.

"Your Majesty, but the good news from Mangui, Mandudu?" A minister immediately guessed that the current war in the north, good news continued to come, in addition to the direction of Zhenjiang Fort, there were also a lot of good news in Mangui.

Yang shook his head.

"Your Majesty, isn't it the stock ......" a minister asked violently, asked half of the question, and didn't dare to say the second half, of course, everyone understands what this means, isn't the stock just the stock of Liulizhai? Of course, in addition to jealousy, many ministers have made a lot of silver, and when they heard the emperor say a great happy event, they suddenly remembered this matter, thinking that Liulizhai's stock had risen sharply.

Yang Gai shook his head again, although the matter of Liulizhai stock is indeed something to be happy about, and it is indeed very important, but how long has it been? How can the things in the heads of these ministers be different from their own?

"Your Majesty, isn't it the matter of Dongyu's side? Another major change? "A minister guessed that the one who can talk about the great joy now is Zhenjiang Fort, but that was a few days ago, and there is no need to talk about it today unless there is a major change on the Donglu side.

Yang Gai shook his head again, although what these ministers said was a happy event, but no one guessed it. Yang Gai sighed, it seems that the things in the head of the minister of the DPRK and the Central Committee are different from himself, and the way he sees and thinks about problems is different from himself.

All the ministers looked at the emperor, I don't know what the emperor said, now to talk about happy events, quite a lot, in addition to the victory of Zhenjiang Fort, the results of the battle in Mangui are also quite fruitful, today around a tribe, tomorrow to incorporate one, can also be regarded as a happy event; The emperor sold the stock of Liulizhai, and he has made a lot of money, which makes the ministers' eyes red, and for the emperor, it is also a happy event that can not be more joyful, but it is a "long-time" thing, and the emperor is so happy today, could it be that the emperor has made a lot of money again? …… These are all happy events, but if you want to say that it is a great happy event, it is none other than the victory of Zhenjiang Fort, but didn't you say it two days ago? Could it be that something big is happening? Or did the East surrender and ask for attachment? Completely solve the problem of Dongyu? Everyone kept speculating, but they were expecting the emperor to break the news.

Yang Reform wanted to make the ministers happy with him, but he talked for a long time, but no one took the conversation, looking at the suspicious expressions of the ministers, he didn't seem to know what he was happy about, and he didn't seem to know what he was talking about, Yang Reform was a little disappointed.

"Master Xu said that the sweet potatoes planted in Shaanxi this year are about to be harvested, and it is not a problem to complete the set goal of 100,000 stones, and some states and counties can still exceed the ......," Yang Gai said that he thought it was a great joy. ,

"Your Majesty said that Xu Zixian's sweet potato harvest is in sight?" Shi Fenglai asked.

"Exactly, I didn't expect that in this dry season, this sweet potato can actually be harvested against the trend, without fear of drought, this is really God's savior for me to Daming" Yang Reform was full of interest at the beginning, and now there is not much left, and what he thinks is a big deal, in the eyes of these ministers, is nothing.

"That's thanks to Your Majesty's Shengming, whose eyes are like torches, can find this kind of heaven-sent treasure......" A group of ministers saw that the emperor was so happy about this, and they did not hesitate to offer the sycophants, to be honest, although this thing is a happy event, it is worth being happy, but it is not as good as the victory of Zhenjiang Fort, and it cannot be compared with the silver earned by the emperor selling stocks, of course, it is undeniable that this is also good news.

"Well, there has been a conclusion before, according to the yield of sweet potatoes to determine the quality of the quality, excellent awards, promotion, can not complete the task, should be reprimanded, should be reprimanded, should be dismissed......" Yang Reform said a little tastelessly, such joy, but can not be shared, it is undoubtedly a depressing thing.

The ministers then remembered that there had indeed been this conclusion before, planting sweet potatoes to resist drought and disaster, or one of the methods proposed by Xu Guangqi when discussing disaster relief a long time ago, and then the situation in Shaanxi was urgent, and drought and civil unrest had reached the point of imminent outbreak, so there was this sweet potato planting to fight drought and determine the advantages and disadvantages of sweet potato yield. There are many sweet potatoes, the assessment can be excellent, you can give priority to promotion, the top few, is a certain promotion, ineffective, low sweet potato yield, and may even lose the official, this is an emergency method to increase the production of thorn jī grain, it was indeed a sensation at the time, however, with the passage of time, this matter will slowly fade down, not to mention, within the Beijing Division, at the foot of the imperial city, there are too many major events, too many eye-catching facts, this matter, after the past few months, people have gradually forgotten, today the emperor mentioned, Only then did everyone remember that they were laughing at what "it is better to plant sweet potatoes than to be an official", and now it has to be put on the agenda again.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that since the conclusion has been made that day, then now that the harvest is imminent, it is natural that it should be done according to the agreement on the day......" A minister came out and said, this matter, if it was placed in the past, it would definitely be a sensational thing, and it would definitely be watched by everyone to see whose sweet potato planting was good and promoted, but now there are too many things that attract people's attention, and there are too many things that make people think about it, and this kind of thing has become irrelevant and faded out of everyone's sight.

"Well, in that case, let the Ministry of Officials and the Metropolitan Procuratorate send personnel to go to the prefectures and counties of Shaanxi together with the Si Nong Division to verify the sweet potato production of each prefecture and county, and pay attention to prevent someone from making false ......," Yang Reform said with some tastelessness.

The minister didn't say anything, so he agreed, after all, this matter had already been agreed.

Yang Reform is very tasteless, I wanted to take advantage of this sweet potato harvest to talk to the ministers about the promotion of sweet potatoes throughout the country, win the support of the ministers, and use administrative force to forcibly push sweet potatoes to the whole country in a very short period of time, increase food production, and fight against natural disasters, however, to make a fuss about today's matter, Yang Reform has no mind to say, perhaps, in the eyes of this group of ministers, planting sweet potatoes is nothing at all, it is just a funny thing.

Yang Gengai sighed, it seems, this matter does not need to be said for the time being, anyway, the sweet potato harvest is imminent, there is already a certain promotion experience, seeds, technology and everything is enough, now not to say the expansion, promotion is nothing, now it is going to winter, to plant sweet potatoes, to promote, but also to next year, to next year, their own situation will change a lot, whether to discuss with the courtiers so solemnly, it is still unknown, maybe next year, their own holy decree to go down, The whole country immediately set off a frenzy of growing sweet potatoes, but it is far better than bothering to talk here.

I dealt with a few more xiǎo things, and this xiǎo court meeting was dispersed.

Yang Gengai came happily, but returned disappointed, shouting bad luck in his heart.

However, if you are unhappy, you will not be happy, and things have to be done.

"Big companion, send a letter to Master Xu, and say that I know about sweet potatoes, and let Master Xu summarize the experience of planting sweet potatoes and promoting sweet potatoes for backup, and reserve enough seeds for national promotion in the coming year...... "Yang Reform didn't want to discuss with the courtiers, but it doesn't mean that he won't do it, so he talks nonsense with those people, it's better to do it quietly, those people don't look down on sweet potatoes, and sweet potatoes have nothing to do with them, but they have a lot to do with themselves. ,

"Obey, Your Majesty ......" Wang Chengen agreed on the side.

After walking for a while, Yang Reform was still depressed.

"Your Majesty, the xiǎo heroes of Dongjiang Town have arrived, can Your Majesty summon them?" Wang Chengen saw that the emperor was sullen, so he came up again and said.

"Oh, is it? Have they arrived? It's so fast," Yang asked.

"Back to Your Majesty, yes, they have arrived." Wang Chengen said with a smile.

"Okay to summon immediately, well, summon Guo Huan again, I have something to find him,......" Yang Reform immediately came to the god of jīng, the xiǎo hero of Dongjiang Town, what he said was that in this battle of Zhenjiang Fort, a group of typical and representative people who showed sè and had military exploits emerged. Yang Reform has long noticed this problem, such as Wu Sangui and Shang Kexi, these people are the objects of Yang Reform's care, and this battle of Zhenjiang Fort also produced a group of young officers with a "future", and Yang Reform is also ready to envelop them, so he casually set up a name and summoned these young officers with military merits to Beijing.

Platform.

Ma Shi, two people, is still the first time to enter Beijing, the first time to enter the palace, looking at the majestic and tall palace, their hearts are uneasy, and being summoned by the emperor makes them even more moved.

In the platform of "Weichen Knocking to See My Emperor Long Live ......" is the kowtow of several xiǎo generals, and there is also the voice of a eunuch, this eunuch is Guo Huan, and now, he is the palm print eunuch of the Grand Theater.

"Okay, let's all get up" Yang Gai looked at these xiǎo generals happily, they are not very old, their bodies are strong, their skin is dark, the childishness on their faces has receded, they looked, they came out of the battlefield, these are their future generals

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Longen." The xiǎo generals are all up.

"Who called Ma Shi?" Yang asked Gengai.

Ma Shishi was very surprised, the emperor called his own xiǎo name, this name, but made the apprehensive Ma Shishi feel that the emperor was very kind, quickly calmed down, and immediately replied: "Back to Your Majesty, Weichen is here." ”

Yang Gai saw it and was very satisfied, he was a brave general who dared to fight and rush, and he had the momentum to not admit defeat and not be afraid of things.

"I heard that you dared to rush to Dongyu Niu Lu with twenty horses, and you also killed a Niu Lu Ezhen? In the pursuit of nearly 100 Dongyu, he calmly left, forcing Dongyu not to dare to chase? Yang Gai asked curiously, isn't this xiǎo general the guy who invented that "obscene stream"? This tactic, now, is carried forward to Dongjiang Town, as soon as the wild boar skin comes, it immediately runs, the wild boar skin dares to chase, so deal with it, nòng has to be poor to deal with the wild boar skin, want to go and can't leave, chase and can't catch up, in this battle of Zhenjiang Fort, played a lot of roles, stuck to a lot of people in Dongyu.

"Back to Your Majesty, it is Wei Chen, Wei Chen feels that the Tartar does not need to be afraid at all, and there is no need to be afraid, the Tartar is shot and still has to die, and if he is hit by a grenade, he still has to open the huā......" This xiǎo general has the strength to not be afraid of things.

Yang Gai was happy to see it, although this guy was more than himself, but the energy he exerted was indeed quite large, with his courage to fight and rush, with his tactics, it was hard to improve the morale of the Ming Dynasty officials and soldiers a lot, and made the Ming Dynasty officials and soldiers a lot more bold to the east.

"How old is a talent like you this year?" Yang Reform asked, in fact, the information of these people, in the past, has already had information, and Yang Reform has also seen it, but the things on the paper are on the paper, and they are asked in person, but they are different, and the relationship is so inadvertently between a few words.

"Back to Your Majesty, Weichen is seventeen years old this year." Ma Shishi said quite confidently.

"Good posterity is terrifying...... Hehe, this time, Zhenjiang Fort has won a great victory, you have made a great contribution, what do you want to appreciate? Yang asked reform.

"Your Majesty's reward is the glory of Weichen, don't dare to ask for it" Ma Shishi hurriedly said modestly, of course, he desperately hoped that the emperor could be crowned an official and a half-post.

"Hehe, meritorious service will be rewarded, I will reward you with a hundred brocade clothes." Yang Reform said without hesitation. The officials of Jinyiwei do not need to consult with anyone, they are the emperor's own land, and they want to wholesale and retail, it all depends on the emperor's intentions.

"Weichen Xie Your Majesty Longen, I will swear to serve Your Majesty" Ma Shi knelt down and kowtowed excitedly, his xiǎoxiǎo age, not yet eighteen years old, he got the official position of Jinyi Wei Baihu, it is really promising, the weight of this official position may be more important than the official position of his uncle, of course, his uncle is now a general. ,

"Hehehe, do a good job, don't let me down, don't go back for the time being, go to the new army, train for a period of time, increase your knowledge, learn it, in the future, you will definitely have a bright future, I am optimistic about you." Yang Gai said happily.

"Weichen Order" Ma Shishi agreed without hesitation.

Ermáo is more flustered, not as sharp and alert as a horse stone, standing there quietly, the emperor did not ask, never moved, and never opened his mouth to say a word.

"You're two máo?" Yang Gai still shouted the xiǎo names and nicknames of these people to enhance their feelings.

The emperor's sentence "two máo" really moved the two máo, thinking that the emperor is high, a god-like person, now affectionately call himself two máo, two máo feel very warm.

"Wechen is here." The second máo also replied like a horse stone.

"I heard, you're pretty lucky? Also a person who is not afraid of death? There's a trick in hand, and the grenade is thrown with great accuracy, isn't it? I heard that that night, you turned the tide in Zhenjiang Fort, so that your whole arm was swollen? "Yang Reform has read the battle reports about these people, and he knows a little about these people, and he is very optimistic about such an honest person who is a little muna.

"Back to Your Majesty, Wechen is not afraid of death, and Wechen is not afraid of Tartars, what Wechen was thinking about at that time was to kill Tartars, so he couldn't care so much, Wechen's grenades were indeed thrown accurately." The difference between the two máo and the horse stone is that the two máo are obviously much more "honest", and the people seem to be a little muna, and when it comes to the night war, the two máo are even more muna.

Yang Gai looked at this person who was a little muna, and he had an idea in his heart, and shouted: "Lizheng"

The people in the platform, hearing the sound, immediately stood upright, the movements were almost the same, and when they heard the sound, they immediately reacted, and there was a "pop" sound in the platform.

When Ermáo heard the command of "Lizheng", he immediately straightened up, put his heels together, raised his head, and pressed his hands tightly on the outside of the big tuǐ, in a standard upright posture.

Yang Gai saw that he already understood a lot of things, and the people in Dongjiang Town had also received some training from the New Army, so they could understand their own orders, and from their reaction to sudden orders, they could see some things.

The people in their own platform, when they heard this password, immediately stood up with a "snap", acted in unison, and executed the order when they heard it, which was very good.

Among these xiǎo generals, the only one who can keep up with the movements in his platform is this two máo, who hears the order, has no doubt, and immediately executes it, no doubt, is a good soldier, a good soldier who obeys the order.

Ma Shi slowed down a little by half a beat, and when he heard the order, he seemed to be stunned, and then he was upright, and the other few were similar, all after hearing the order, they thought about it, or doubted it, or they were shocked to find that others were upright, and then they followed it, which was not bad.

Of course, they are not the last people to carry out their orders, Guo Huan, the eunuch, doesn't know what Lizheng is at all, hearing the emperor's sudden shout, the people in this platform immediately froze, and they were very surprised to see that others were standing "upright", and secretly pulled the two separate feet together, seeing that the emperor was looking at himself, he was very embarrassed, and secretly put his feet together, and smiled at the emperor embarrassedly.

Through his reaction to his sudden order, Yang Reform has seen something.

"Take a break," Yang suddenly ordered.

This time, almost all the people on the entire platform executed the order of "take a break" at the same time, of course, except for Guo Huan, who looked embarrassed, who was half a beat slower.

"Very good, your performance, I am very satisfied, hearing my order, can respond as quickly as possible, it is my good soldier" Yang Gai praised.

The people on the platform began to go about their own business. The summoned generals were also relieved.
