Chapter 028: Penglai Fengyun (I)
"From the heavy town of Liao Shen, it has fallen into the hands of Jiannu one after another, and the government and the opposition are shaken!" Looking at Penglai City, He Huchen said in a thick voice: "It was also from that time that the imperial court was particularly concerned about the coastal defense of Dengzhou Mansion.
Penglai Navy Division Camp stationed in the Water Division Fortress, Bei Wa City, was built in the Taizu Dynasty; At the beginning, in order to resist the invasion of the Japanese invaders, he made countless contributions.
However, due to its disrepair, the city defenses of Bei Wa City have been damaged. In many cases, it is not possible to effectively resist a sneak attack from the sea!
Although before the great change in Liaoshen, he wanted to write to the court several times, but there was no news.
After such a thing occurred in Liaodong, Tao Lang, the former governor of Denglai, first wrote a book to describe the situation, and the imperial court was also based on the existing situation, in order to stick to the coastal defense of Dengzhou Mansion.
To prevent Jiannu Kou from rushing to the state capital, a large number of silver taels were allocated to repair and rectify the coastal defense of the Dengzhou capital! ”
According to He Huchen's story, no matter how you look at this, it's a good thing!
As a coastal location in the Ming Dynasty, it is the most important coastal defense area.
Although Jiannu did not have access to the water division, if a small force of soldiers and horses was sent to invade, and the coastal defense of Dengzhou Mansion fell into disrepair for a long time, it finally failed to resist the invasion of Jiannu!
Once Jiannu is allowed to occupy the important land of coastal defense, the consequences are unimaginable!
It's just that.
It is good for the imperial court to stick to the coastal defense of Dengzhou Mansion, but the corruption of Daming officialdom is serious, although this matter is related to whether the Daming Haijiang is consolidated!
But the governor of Denglai, who originally proposed to consolidate the coastal defense, Tao Langxian knew that this matter was very important, but he still greedy for 2 pieces of silver from it, and the officials of the Dengzhou Mansion were greedy for 3 percent of the ink, leaving less than 5 percent for the renovation of the coastal defense of Dengzhou Mansion!
Zhao Zongwu nodded and said: "The official has also heard of this matter, but that Tao Lang was bold first, and he actually embezzled as much as 50% of the ink and silver with the officials of Dengzhou Mansion!"
Because of this incident, let the Dengzhou Mansion and the Wang Court try to be impeached!
In the end, Tao Lang was removed from his post and investigated, and Wang Tingtry sat on the throne as the prefect of Dengzhou Mansion, and with the help of this matter, Wang Tingtry helped up a large number of relatives. ”
He Huchen nodded and said: "My lord is right, today's Ming officialdom, when it comes to Sun Tzu's Art of War, it is much more skilled than my bosses."
I have also heard of the royal court test, and I have heard of the humble position!
This person is by no means as incorruptible as he seems on the surface, and even more greedy than Tao Langxian!
But this person's ability to observe words and colors is much higher than that of Tao Langxian!
If it weren't for this, he would never have been so young and became the governor of Dengzhou Prefecture! ”
"Wei Ning reminded me well, this official understands your good intentions." Zhao Zongwu's expression moved, he stepped forward, patted He Huchen on the shoulder, and said solemnly: "No matter what kind of person he is in the royal court!"
It doesn't matter what kind of injustice the Ming army encountered in the local area before!
Since this official is the commander of Donghai Town in the Ming Dynasty, and you are fighting bloodily under my command, that is my Zhao Zongwu, the closest brother in life and death!
No matter who he is, as long as he dares to think crookedly and deceive my brother, he will be severely punished! ”
Through these time contacts, He Huchen can clearly feel that this young commander is resolute, arrogant, and steady!
What impressed He Huchen the most was what the young commander told him: novel operations such as coordinated operations of arms and coordination of sea and land!
Gradually.
He Huchen's initial dissatisfaction disappeared without a trace.
Since he was dispatched to Donghai Town by the Lord, as long as he can attack Jiannu, no matter what he is asked to do, He Huchen is excited in his heart!
Between words.
Zhao Zongwu led He Huchen, Zhao Zonghu and more than ten people, and came to the Dengzhou Mansion.
Wearing a flying fish suit, carrying a goose feather knife, covering light plate armor, and bunching red cloaks, the left and right officials were all shocked by the momentum they exuded!
"The commander of Daming Donghai Town, Zhao Zongwu! Come to visit the prefect of Dengzhou, Wang Ting, there will be an emperor's edict, and you need to meet and pass it on! ”
Holding the token of the commander of Donghai Town, Zhao Zongwu looked serious and shouted in a sonorous tone.
Where have I ever seen such a battle?
Behind Zhao Zongwu were all existences who had been on the battlefield, and the murderous aura emanating from his body was enough to scare them into not daring to move easily.
Some of them were so timid that their legs were so weak that they almost wanted to sit on the ground.
The official of the organic spirit had already entered the mansion to pass the ceremony, and Zhao Zongwu and his party walked into the Dengzhou Mansion without permission.
After entering Penglai, Zhao Zongwu had already thought about what he was going to do next.
Since he is the commander of Donghai Town, the sailors galloping in the East China Sea of the Ming Dynasty will not be under the control of the governors of Shandong and Denglai from the moment Donghai Town sets up the brand!
As the three major water division battalions in Shandong: the ink division battalion, the Penglai water division battalion, and the Wendeng water division battalion.
Legally, they have all been under the jurisdiction of Donghai Town!
Even if Yuan Keli becomes the governor of Denglai in the future, then he will have no time to control the three major sailor battalions.
It's just that at this stage, Zhao Zongwu has a big deal to plot, and he doesn't have the energy to control the distant Jimo Division Camp and Wendeng Water Division Camp for the time being.
But this Penglai Sailor Battalion, Zhao Zongwu must take it!
The reason why I came to visit Wang Tingqian was to take the control of the Penglai Water Division.
Looking at the government in front of him, Zhao Zongwu didn't have too much expression on his face, and before he came, Zhao Zongwu thought that this local government was different from the army.
Especially these local officials, the hidden flowery intestines are unimaginable to ordinary people.
The current state of the Ming Dynasty is that the civilian officials absolutely suppress the generals, although they look down on the generals from the bones, but they are also extremely vigilant against the hearts of the generals they control!
If anyone wants to snatch food from their bowls, it is absolutely unrealistic!
Today, in the name of Donghai Town, to control the three major water division camps in Shandong, not to mention far away, just this Penglai water division camp, the Dengzhou prefect Wang Tingtry, there must be a hundred unwilling in my heart!
But sometimes, this officialdom is like this, you get it, I don't, then I'm a head shorter than you.
In such a situation, there is really no other way than to protect what you have in your bowl.
Although Zhao Zongwu has Zhu Youxiao's dictation, who can guarantee that Wang Tingxuan will not be ridiculous?
If it were someone else, he might still try to fight with the royal court, but Zhao Zongwu was unwilling to do this, wasting a little more time on this road!
The new governor of Denglai, Yuan Keli, once arrived, the Penglai Navy Battalion was automatically transferred to the control of Yuan Keli, and it had nothing to do with his royal court.
Not to mention that Donghai Town is the pro-army sequence of the Son of Heaven, and it bears the heavy responsibility of sharing worries for the emperor!
He tried a small prefect in the royal court, which may be a little better in the eyes of others, but in the eyes of Zhao Zongwu, it is not enough to see at all!
If the plot of the foundation of Donghai Town is successful, then he Donghai Town, in the entire Ming Dynasty, will be a very bullish existence!
