Emperor Hongzhi was fooled by Xie Zhi, and he quickly made up his mind.

After making up his mind, a call was made to the world.

The content of the edict is very simple, the government of the Ping Wei court is tight, and the relatives and nobles of the emperor can donate generously.

These people have countless lands and granges, and more than half of the land in the world is in the hands of these people.

And when he took out some of the silver, he did not deserve his share.

But it would not be so easy to get money out of these people's hands.

Emperor Hongzhi looked up to Zhu Houzhao more and more, and even handed over this matter to him.

Zhu Houzhao was originally going to follow Xie Zhi to train the sailor, but he was arranged by Emperor Hongzhi, and his mood was not much better.

When Emperor Hongzhi's edict was issued, Xie Zhi had already packed his bags at home and was ready to go.

This time, although Emperor Hongzhi decided to send troops after hearing Xie Zhi's opinion, he was awarded to Zhang Mao as the governor of Pingwu, and he had the privilege of dispatching sailors, and Xie Zhi was just a general of Pingwa.

The Governor of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies personally led the troops to the battle, which had never happened since the Tumubao Incident.

Zhang Mao, as the governor of the Chinese army, had not yet made up his mind to send troops when Emperor Hongzhi summoned these people to solve the trouble.

Now it's just a matter of seeing Xie Zhi, and he has made such a strong will.

It can be seen that Xie Zhi's attitude played a key role.

After Zhang Mao received the order, he figured out these things and told his family to pack their bags, and he went to Xie's house to see Xie Zhi in person.

"Boy, you persuaded Your Majesty to settle the matter, right?"

Xie Zhi didn't hide it, and he also knew the reason why Zhang Mao was so busy asking, and replied directly: "Sort of, the woe is a big trouble for Your Majesty's henchmen, and if you come up with a few feasible suggestions, Your Majesty will naturally agree." ”

Without waiting for him to ask, Xie Zhi gave the answer he wanted.

For a moment, Zhang Mao didn't know what to ask again?

Without waiting for Zhang Mao to ask, Xie Zhi asked, "Zhang Shibo wants to ask how to calm the widows, right?" ”

This question is the key to the key, and it is easy to say a sentence, but how to complete this operation is not as simple as it says.

On top of this question, Xie Zhi did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "I don't know what Zhang Shibo will do?" ”

After all, Zhang Mao is also the leader of the troops, and the freedom of the art of war and tactics is not weak, and he replied: "Train the troops first, the sailors will not fight for a long time, the soldiers will be lazy, the discipline will be lax, I am afraid that even the weapons are rusting, and the maintenance of the warship may not be enough. ”

Zhang Mao can clearly understand this problem, and there is no fundamental difference with Xie Zhi's plan.

Otherwise, Xie Zhi's hard work to promote this matter is not even a foil in the end.

Xie Zhi smiled and said with some joy: "I think so." ”

Since they had the same opinion, Xie Zhi opened his mouth and said some of his thoughts.

Naturally, Zhang Mao did not have any other opinions on Xie Zhi's arrangements.

Just when the two were exchanging opinions, Zhu Houzhao also came to the door.

Originally, he was angry, but when he saw that Zhang Mao was also there, he immediately resumed the seriousness in front of the person, and after waiting for Zhang Mao to salute, he said solemnly: "I heard that Xie Wu is about to go out to train the army to prepare for the pacification, and the palace is coming to see him off, I don't know when you are going to leave?" ”

Xie Zhi was serious, but Xie Zhi didn't need it, and replied with a smile: "I'll leave immediately, and the minister will inform Yun Zhongwei that he is preparing to pull out the camp." ”

Zhu Houzhao still had a serious attitude, and said seriously: "Well, this palace is waiting for the news of your triumph." ”

In front of Zhang Mao, Zhu Houzhao couldn't say much, and he felt a little bored, so he didn't stay long and was about to leave.

Xie Zhi took the initiative to ask: "Your Highness, Your Majesty has entrusted you with the matter of raising military salaries?" ”

Zhu Houzhao was bored with this matter, and when he heard Xie Zhi ask, he was almost moved to tears, and said: "Yes, my father handed over this matter to the palace, and the palace is also worried about this matter." ”

Xie Zhi was not polite, and said directly: "The minister is willing to take the lead in donating some silver, the minister will donate 50,000 taels, the minister will repair the book and let Yunzhong send it, and the minister will donate 3,000 taels of silver on behalf of his father, and he will also send it together." ”

Xie Zhi's own donation is his heart.

What he donated on behalf of Xie Qian is a standard for courtiers to donate silver.

Although the grade of the cabinet scholars is not high, in the Qing Dynasty, Xie Qian, these cabinet scholars, donated 3,000 taels, and those yamen chiefs in Beijing could not be less than 2,000 taels no matter how shabby they were.

This account must be at least about 100,000 taels.

If you add the words of other Beijing officials, you can make up at least another 100,000 taels.

Silver is a trivial matter, and if it is not difficult to pay a penny at this time, or if it is too shabby, it is indispensable to be changed to wear small shoes in the future.

Xie Zhi's move is afraid that he will be scolded by many people behind his back.

Do you think, Zhu Houzhao is the crown prince of the dynasty, the future emperor, take people to the yamen to raise donations, and if you do it there, who dares not to take money.

Even if you don't want to, you have to take some out.

Xie Zhi expressed his attitude, but he didn't forget Zhang Mao, and asked, "How much does Zhang Shibo take?" ”

Zhang Mao had to donate this silver.

He wants to make military achievements in the front, and if he doesn't have the support of real money in the back, where will he win.

Zhang Mao didn't say a word, and waved his big hand and said: "Three thousand taels, the minister instructed his family to have and His Royal Highness." ”

Zhang Mao is a duke, and three thousand taels is also a standard.

How many of the marquis and earls below, then they can see for themselves.

After all, their grace is all given by the court, and if they offend the court, they are a fart.

Before, Zhu Houzhao was still embarrassed by this problem, but now he has raised so many donations at once.

When I saw Xie Zhi, I couldn't wait to hug him and kiss him.

This matter itself was handed over to Zhu Houzhao by Emperor Hongzhi to train him, and Xie Zhi was always not good at giving too many instructions.

After solving these problems for him, Xie Zhicai said: "Your Highness will look at it yourself." ”

Emperor Hongzhi's purpose in doing this was actually to see how much Zhu Houzhao controlled these relatives.

After solving this matter, Xie Zhi and Zhang Mao quickly rushed to the south.

They are going to put the new training place in Fuzhou.

Therefore, they had to rush to Fuzhou first and choose a place where they could camp.

This position must be free from the invasion of the Japanese during the month of training, so it is necessary to occupy some advantages over the terrain.

Zhang Maozhong is the governor of the military government and the prince of the country, and there will be no shortage of cronies to protect him.

Unlike Xie Zhi, he didn't train a guard.

rushed all the way from Beijing to Fuzhou, and had to take advantage of Zhang Mao's guards.

Seeing that Zhang Mao's guards helped him carry all the baggage, Zhang Mao basically didn't have any heavy objects except for the saber he was born carrying.

The most important thing is that when they were resting along the way, these people were still serving tea and water to Zhang Mao.

Why, I was a little envious.

Seeing that it is also necessary for him to find a few guards for himself, he is not without this qualification.

Relying on He Liang alone, once He Liang is assigned a heavy responsibility, he will have to become a lonely person in seconds.

Fortunately, following Zhang Mao, he can also touch some of Zhang Mao's light.

Jingshi is some distance from Fuzhou, and it will take them at least half a month to travel lightly.

However, if the soldiers of Yunzhongwei go down by boat, it will be half a month.

In order to let the soldiers of Yunzhongwei adapt to the water station first, Xie Zhi arranged for Wang Shouren to lead the soldiers of Yunzhongwei to Tianjin first, and when Xu Jing's treasure ship was built, he rushed to Fuzhou by boat.

Xu Jing's treasure ship is also about to be completed, that is, in two or three days.

In fact, Xie Zhi was already looking forward to Xu Jing's treasure ship.

This treasure ship made the Tianjin Wei commander and the town guard eunuchs on guard, how much Hongda does this ship have to be?

Long before Xie Zhi and Zhang Mao arrived, the water division guards had already received the news in advance.

As soon as the wind arrived, the will of Emperor Hongzhi followed.

After all, these orders are urgent, and they have to change horses every time they arrive at each stop, and they will be thanked for their speed.

After taking Fuzhou, Xie Zhi and they would not enter the city.

Directly choose the right terrain is that they are here to fight against the Japanese, and they are not here to hand over documents, what is the use of entering the city, and drinking with those chief officials is not a waste of time.

Perhaps these people did not want them to resist the Japanese from the bottom of their hearts.

Halfway through to make a stumbling block for them, before the anti-Japanese thing was carried out, this time the peace and the Japanese had to die.

Xie Zhi and Zhang Mao both knew very well how determined Emperor Hongzhi was to order the peace of the Emperor this time.

This time, they can only win, not lose.

If they fail, regardless of whether Emperor Hongzhi has the courage to resist the Japanese again, even the emperors of future generations will not dare to take risks easily.

In this case, not only will the revenge not be avenged, but it will also be difficult to put an end to the situation of being offended from time to time.
