Chapter 040: Unquiet Penglai
Penglai, because of the arrival of Zhao Zongwu, made it not calm.
In just more than ten days, Penglai has been prepared for the city, and there have been unimaginable changes.
Since the construction of Penglai Water City to this day, except for Qi Jiguang who led the troops to briefly make Penglai Water City, it has radiated its unique brilliance, and the rest are very dull for it.
But that's no longer the case!
With a batch of successive batches, the generals and soldiers who have been transferred and requisitioned, Penglai is a city with soldiers, and now it can be called a talent pool!
Man Gui, Cao Wenzhao, He Huchen, Zu Dabi, You Shiwei and other generals, the number was once as high as more than 40 people, if you count the middle and low-level generals, then this number may have multiplied several times!
With the generals and the Penglai Naval Division Battalion as the backbone, and the selection of strong men in the Dengzhou Mansion, the number of soldiers in the new battalion once reached an astonishing 50,000 people!
Because of the White Lotus uprising that broke out in Shandong, Laizhou and Dengzhou, which were relatively far away, became ideal places of refuge.
This is inevitable, and it will make the people who are struggling at the bottom avoid harm and seek profit, and it is natural to rush to Laizhou Mansion and Dengzhou Mansion for refuge.
The Penglai military garrison province belongs to the city as a whole, as a rotation training camp school ground, which also provides a sufficient place for a large number of troops.
The non-combatants, the families of the newly recruited Zhuangding, all migrated to the Changshan Islands with Changdao as the core.
But anyone who understands the strategic key points knows the importance of the Changshan Islands in the Yellow and Bohai Seas!
Whether it is the throat of Liaodong and Shandong, or the throat of the Yellow and Bohai Seas, if anyone masters the Changshan Islands, the strategic initiative will definitely occupy a huge advantage!
It's just that for the Ming Dynasty, a land power overlord, the greatest value of the Changshan Islands at this time is to shorten the shipping distance with Liaodong.
The sailing distance is shortened by the transfer method.
It's just that in recent years, because the land of Liaodong has fallen, the Changshan Islands have been a little different, but this level of attention is still far from enough.
That being the case, Zhao Zongwu was very unceremonious and took the control of the Changshan Islands.
The Changshan Islands, which were originally under the jurisdiction of the Dengzhou Prefecture, were also transferred to Donghai Town as the number of soldiers under Zhao Zongwu's command continued to increase.
Regarding the question of how to improve, the war in the Changshan Islands, and the development potential, Zhao Zongwu has been thinking about it in his heart.
Also in the Dengzhou prefect, Wang Tingqian was angry in his heart, and he had already met with Dengzhou officialdom, ready to discuss, and then wrote to Zhao Zongwu.
What Zhao Zongwu is doing is devoting himself to the process of constantly consolidating and preparing the foundation of Penglai's soldiers.
The gap is that, under such a premise, it has become bigger and bigger!
When there was a great change in Dengzhou Mansion, Yuan Keli, who was originally stranded in Shandong due to Xu Hongru's uprising, can be said to have gone through many difficulties, and finally went to Dengzhou Mansion!
As the governor of Denglai, because of the turbulent situation in western Liaoning, although it would be more appropriate to go to Laizhou Prefecture to take office.
But after experiencing the bloody battle, Yuan Keli's enterprising heart was obviously stimulated.
Therefore, Yuan Keli did not go to Dengzhou Mansion, but ran towards Dengzhou Mansion, this time, Yuan Keli went straight to the land of Penglai!
Time also, life also.
People who could not have intersected, under the arrangement of fate, would actually collide in Penglai like this.
In the Ming officialdom, it is extremely particular about the order of the group.
Anything that is outside the organization, that's not a good thing for people in the organization.
Being an official is not a simple issue, so there are many complex issues involved. It is also precisely because of these complex issues that it is impossible to say anything good about the atmosphere of officialdom.
This discussion wants to jointly write a book, and refer to Zhao Zongwu's book, although this effect is not very great, but who can know if you don't do it, there is no effect?
Just when Wang Ting tried to gather them together and continue to appreciate the twists and turns they wrote, Yuan Keli's official driver arrived in Penglai in this way.
Wang Tingxuan himself took into account Zhao Zongwu's identity, as the existence of the new Son of Heaven's pro-army sequence, although this was not recognized by the imperial court, but Zhao Zongwu was a favorite of the emperor's side.
In this way, even if he is referring to Zhao Zongwu in the book, it can really play a role, and Wang Tingqian has no score in his heart.
But if Zhao Zongwu's behavior is not reacted to by his royal court, then in the future, his Dengzhou prefect will really be like a fictitious thing, and no one will pay attention to it!
The second-in-command, third-in-command, and the matter of overthrowing the number one is not without deduction in the Daming officialdom.
Wang Ting, who learned the news, tried the bad water in his stomach, and it came out.
Not long after Yuan Keli arrived in Penglai, Wang Tingqian pretended to be very enthusiastic and led the officials of Dengzhou officialdom to meet the Denglai governor who had seized his power!
After all, the governor of Kedenglai focused on military operations, and if Wang Tingli could perform better in front of Yuan Keli, there was still a great chance that his authority could be retained.
With these thoughts, Wang Tingqian came to Yuan Keli.
This one was given, Yuan Keli had enough face, and he was satisfied with the pomp, so he must not have anything or lack, in this regard, Wang Tingli is still quite experienced.
But he obviously underestimated Yuan Keli.
can be appointed as the governor of Denglai at such an age, how many of them are general?
Although the prefect of Dengzhou, Wang Ting, tried to make Tao Langxian, the governor of Denglai, that trick was overwhelming.
But obviously, Wang Tingli did not have that kind of strategy in front of Yuan Keli.
Maybe in Yuan Keli's heart, he didn't know much about Zhao Zongwu, and he didn't even know who Zhao Zongwu was.
But since he was able to get the prefect of Dengzhou, he spared no effort to belittle, which can also reflect from the side that Zhao Zongwu is not a simple character!
If it is a simple role, then Wang Tingqian, as the prefect of Dengzhou, will definitely be able to easily handle it, instead of looking for a topic like now.
With this kind of thought, Yuan Keli did not respond directly, but used the excuse of a long boat and car to hastily expose the matter, and bluntly said that the follow-up will definitely deal with this bad matter!
This is not the result that Wang Tingtry wants, but he is not Yuan Keli's opponent, especially the ability to pretend to be confused, which is really not something that ordinary people can master.
After solving these problems, Yuan Keli successfully got out of this situation on the grounds that he was slightly tired, and under the help of the subordinate officials who showed his intentions.
In Yuan Keli's heart, he has a great vigilance against Dengzhou officialdom, and at the same time he is also against Zhao Zongwu, Penglai is destined to be extraordinary!
