Chapter 113: The Meeting of High Relatives (8)
Qi Jiguang's simple picture, that is really simple. But Gao Shishi still quickly saw that the line he drew on the top of the paper was the defense line of the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty, and the circles of different sizes drawn south of that line were some cities, including Jizhou and Yongpingfu.
Suddenly, Qi Jiguang drew a line from the circle in Jizhou City, went all the way to the right through several small circles and went directly to Yongping Mansion, and continued from Yongping Mansion to the right to Shanhaiguan. [No wind note: Here I personally recommend a set of maps, which is a series of maps of the Ming Dynasty drawn by a screen name "Ningnan Zuohou", the set of maps is classified in detail, including the map of the Dusi Post Station, the entire Ming administrative series of maps are very fine, I personally like it. ]
At this time, Gao Pragmatic suddenly found that Kaiping Town was not on this line, and its location was a little lower than this line, and in terms of geographical location, it was about dozens of miles to the south.
Qi Jiguang saw the abruptness in Gao Shishi's eyes, and then smiled with satisfaction: "Gao Shixuan can see it now, right?" From Jizhou to Shanhaiguan, in terms of the nearest distance, this road only needs to pass through Yutian County, Fengrun County, Yongping Mansion, Funing County, and the location of Kaiping Town is a little southeast of Fengrun County...... But the problem is here, the distance between Fengrun County and Yongping Mansion is the farthest stop between counties on this road, and Kaiping is not on this line! ”
Gao Pragmatic immediately added: "That is to say, it is necessary to build a new county seat or military town in the middle of Fengrun County and Yongping Mansion, because Kaiping is not at this best meeting point, so it can move dozens of miles to the northeast as a whole!" ”
Qi Jiguang smiled with satisfaction and said, "Yes, Gao Shiyu's eyes are like torches - in my estimation, it will take about seventy miles to move to the northeast." ”
Of course, Qi Jiguang did not measure the distance, but his "estimate" is very accurate, because the line he just said is almost a section of the route through the Beijing-Harbin Expressway in the later generations, and Kaiping is the Tangshan section in the later generations, moving from Kaiping to the middle of Fengrun County of the Beijing-Harbin Expressway to Luanhe County, which is about less than 37 kilometers, that is, Qi Jiguang said about 70 miles.
It seems that the reason why people are famous is that they really have the ability to do it, not to mention training and fighting, their own defense areas can be familiar to such a degree, shouldn't they win all battles?
Gao pragmatic stared at the "best position", and his mind was spinning: How can I let Kaiping Zhongtun guard move there?
Qi Jiguang laughed at this time: "Gao Shixuan, don't look at it." ”
Gao Shishi was stunned for a moment, looked at Qi Jiguang, and showed an inquiring look.
"Let's let Qi do it." Qi Jiguang said with a smile: "However, I also hope that Elder Gao Ge will say a fair word for Qi in the court when the time comes." ”
Gao Pragmatic suddenly came to his senses. Dare to love Qi Jiguang has long felt that the location of Kaiping Town is not good enough, and he may have hoped that it could move to the northeast and make up for the missing point on the Yifeng Post Road, but the court has no spare money.
But now it's different, Gao Pragmatic himself took the initiative to jump out to buy land near Kaiping, because the vicinity of Kaiping is full of military tun fields, although most of them are cheap wasteland, after all, there are still some fields, so Qi Jiguang as the general soldier of Jizhou, you can go to the imperial court, it is better to sell the military tuntian here, and the money from the sale of land is used to move the Kaiping Zhongtun Guard, plugging the only loophole on this post road.
The biggest advantage of his method is that it is obviously the same thing, the imperial court took the initiative to sell the military cantonment land for relocation and the high pragmatism forced to buy the military cantonment land to open the mine, obviously the former is a normal operation, and the latter is not good enough to be watched by the world.
Qi Jiguang kills two birds with one stone, wonderful!
According to his method, he just shifted the initiative to a position, and as a result, not only will the government and the opposition be unstoppable, but the matter of building transportation channels and defense bases along the post road has also been done, and Gao Shishi wants to buy Kaiping to mine and set up a factory!
It's not killing two birds with one stone, it's killing three birds with one stone!
Gao asked decisively: "What does Governor Qi mean is that you are asking the imperial court to allow Kaiping Zhongtun Wei to move the defense?" ”
"Yes, yes." Qi Jiguang said.
Gao pragmatic thought about it for a while, and then asked: "How do you say the cost?" At the beginning, I said I want to buy land? ”
Qi Jiguang was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically, "Isn't it okay?" ”
Gao pragmatic muttered: "It's not that it doesn't work, it's just that in this way, the cooperation between our two sides...... Wouldn't it be too obvious? If anyone wants to make a fuss about this......"
Qi Jiguang was surprised, and said in his heart: This is really a child who is less than ten years old? Why do you think about the way out of everything first, quite a bit of the meaning of "unexpectedly winning, expecting defeat first" as mentioned in the book of soldiers? Could it be that this is the Gao family's family history and officialdom experience? However, Gao Ge Lao doesn't seem to be like this!
Of course, Gao Gong was born as a Jinshi, a scholar of Hanlin, and later an emperor, for him, as long as Longqing is in power, there is no need to be defeated. But what about high pragmatism? In his previous life, he was just a small secretary, and in the government agencies, his ability to survive was to observe words and feelings, and to do things reliably, which has become a habit.
And in this life, he is the only person who knows that Long Qing's birthday is not long enough, and he is also the only person who knows that Gao Gong has a "fateful catastrophe" at the intersection of Long Wan, although he will try his best to help Gao Gong survive this catastrophe, but what if he fails? Of course, you have to wipe your buttocks clean first, otherwise you will wait for Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao to liquidate at that time? Even if Zhang Juzheng still has a little face, he doesn't have to press the entire Gao family to death, but in order to frame Gao Gong, who has already made a name for himself, Feng Bao has made the case of Minister Wang, but this "master" really doesn't want any face at all! Can Gao Pragmatism be a little more careful?
"So, what do you mean?" Qi Jiguang originally thought that if Gao Gong agreed to this matter, it would basically be easy to do, and Zhang Juzheng was actually good at talking, and he would write a letter to him and tell him the military truth, and he should not object - at this point, Qi Jiguang believed Zhang Juzheng. It's just that Gao Pragmatic doesn't want to bear the gossip right now, so Qi Jiguang has no good way, after all, he himself is a person who has always been surrounded by gossip, if he has the ability to solve this rumor problem, how can it be so?
Gao pragmatic thought about it, suddenly smiled, and said, "There is a way." ”
Qi Jiguang looked at him in surprise and asked, "Will Ji come out?" ”
Gao pragmatic narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the scenery outside the city tower, and said slowly: "Auction." ”
"Auction?" Qi Jiguang was stunned: "What is an auction?" ”
