Chapter 138: Zheng Chenggong must be
"I don't care about this matter, but when the army is in danger and the war is urgent, you must not draw a tael of silver from the front line." Yuan Shizhong said loudly: "Jiangshan Sheji is important, or just the money is important. ”
"Is this a mere coin?" Zhang Zhen said: "North Korea is in danger, and it is you who said that you were the one who saved it, and now the court has no money." Do you look at it? ”
"You ----" Yuan Shizhong and Zhang Zhi quarreled angrily, spitting saliva and not letting each other go.
In fact, the relationship between the two people before was still passable.
It's just that now the two of them can't make their own decisions about what they do. Yuan Shizhong, as the head of the military generals, and Zhang Zhen is also the first civil official, they both have a huge group behind them, which also represents the conflict between the two departments of the Privy Council and the cabinet.
There are some things that cannot be let go.
After a long time, the two of them easily stopped talking and let the people below quarrel first. The two of them are the general backstage.
But when they came to Zhang Xuan's side, they had to stand up for their subordinates. Imperial arguments are also common.
"Alright." Zhang Xuan said: "North Korea's affairs can be slowed down for a while. His eyelids drooped slightly, making it difficult to see clearly, his eyes were thinking, he held a piece of bloody clothes in his hand, and said, "Lao Yang went." ”
The piece of bloody clothes in his hand is Yang Shenzu's suicide note.
Just when the two of them were arguing, this blood letter was also quietly sent in by Li Fuguo.
Zhang Xuan read it silently, and quietly handed the blood letter to Li Fuguo, who immediately passed the blood letter to the people below. In addition to this blood book, there is also a piece of music, which is Liang Huafeng's.
After Yuan Shizhong saw it, he couldn't help but feel sad. It's just that these injuries only last for a while.
In the troubled times, I have seen too much from life to life.
Yuan Shizhong's nerves have been exercised enough, and he is sad about Yang Shenzu's death, but he is only sad. immediately put his mind on the matter, and said: "Your Majesty, this Liang Huafeng is a general of the Eastern Captives, and he defected to our dynasty in the Battle of Anqing, but it has only been a few years, and now the situation in North Korea is extremely dangerous, with him as a general, the minister thinks it is ----."
Zhang Xuan waved his hand and said: "I can trust Lao Yang, and I can also trust the person recommended by Lao Yang, the Privy Council calculates Liang Huafeng's merits, adds the rank of general, and makes him a viscount." ”
When Yuan Shizhong heard this, he immediately understood, and said, "The minister obeys the order." ”
Does Zhang Xuan believe in Liang Huafeng?
Not necessarily, it's just that at this time, Zhang Xuan can't make effective restrictions at all. Even if Liang Huafeng really has a different heart? Can Zhang Xuan manage it? Since he can't manage it, try his best to win over Liang Huafeng, so that Liang Huafeng will not betray, and he will not be entangled in whether he is reliable or unreliable.
Even if it's unreliable, it can be used as reliable today.
Zhang Xuan has no alternatives.
And Zhang Xuan also saw a meaning implied in Yang Shenzu's suicide note, Yang Shenzu deliberately recommended Liang Huafeng, not necessarily not to stabilize Liang Huafeng's heart.
It's just that Zhang Xuan's speculation will never be confirmed. Unless after Zhang Xuan's death, go underground and ask Yang Shenzu.
Zhang Xuan turned his head and said to Yao Qisheng: "Immediately issue 10 million taels of national bonds, which will be shared by Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Fujian, Guangdong, Hunan, Hubei, and six provinces, no matter what you do, within a month, I will see the money." ”
Yao Qisheng stole a glance at Zhang Qian, but saw Zhang Zhen sigh slightly and didn't say anything.
The matter of national debt has always been regarded by Zhang Zhen as a matter of wanton expropriation and extortion, and he tried his best to stop it. But in the face of today's financial crisis, Zhang Zhen can only acquiesce.
Yao Qisheng said: "Yes." ”
Zhang Xuan saw that Zhang Zhen did not object, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he was actually a little weak-hearted.
In fact, there is not much difference between what Zhang Zhen thinks. In the absence of well-established financial institutions, government bonds are issued. There is not much difference from forced apportionment. It's almost a new model of apportionment.
But now, nothing more. Let's talk about getting the money first.
"Although the North Korean military is not so critical now, it will not last long, and Zhou Fuchen is no longer suitable to stay in North Korea." Zhang Xuan's tone, with a cold meaning, said: "I remember that the Guangdong Navy Division did not get a port in the Ruan Clan, so Zhou Fuchen was appointed as the commander of the South China Sea Navy Division and the commander of the South China Sea Guard. Let him go to the South China Sea and reflect on it. ”
The top manager of the officials of the Great Xia Navy Division is the privy deputy envoy in charge of the Water Division, that is, Zhou Fuchen, and now holds this position. And under this position, there are major naval divisions, and the so-called Nanhaiwei is just a small port south of the Ruan family, there are not a few ships on weekdays, except for the last time when they fought with the Dutch, there were many ships stopped here.
But now there are only a few ships, and all the personnel combined, only more than a thousand people.
Zhou Fuchen went from being a general and a privy deputy envoy who commanded tens of thousands of troops to a general official in a corner of the South China Sea.
Zhang Xuan can be described as ruthless.
But Yuan Shizhong knew what it meant, and Zhang Xuan still showed affection to Zhou Fuchen.
Such a defeat, no matter what, Zhou Fuchen is to blame, Ruan Jin no matter what, has died heroically, it is difficult to find the fault of the dead, in this way, it does not seem that the court is too bad, if Ruan Jin is alive, he will definitely not get a good end, but now that he is dead, he can only let it go gently, then as Ruan Jin's boss, the chief officer of this battle, Zhou Fuchen will have to bear the main responsibility. is so degraded so ruthlessly, firstly, the people below will also say that Zhang Xuan is fair, and secondly, it is also good for Zhou Fuchen, such as
If Zhang Xuan protected it, the reputation of Zhou Fuchen's army was broken. It also affects the justice of military law. This matter can never be counted as over, but in this way, no matter what mistakes Zhou Fuchen made, this matter will end here. Third, Zhou Fuchen's demotion to this position is very interesting. Although this Nanhai Wei is deep in the South China Sea, far from the mainland, it is everywhere. But there's a lot to be done. Zhou Fuchen does not have many personnel under his command, but if he does a good job and the generals open up Nanyang, Zhou Fuchen is the vanguard, and in the future, with Nanyang's military exploits, he may not return to the Privy Council.
Of course, Zhou Fuchen has been sitting on the cold bench in the South China Sea for a few years, but there is no doubt about it.
Yuan Shizhong said: "The minister understands. ”
Zhang Xuan immediately asked: "Then the candidate to replace Zhou Fuchen, can Qing recommend it?" ”
Yuan Shizhong said: "It must be the king of Min." ”
When Zhang Xuan heard this, he sighed lightly in his heart, and said secretly in his heart: "Sure enough, it's him." ”
In fact, he had already thought about it just now, and when he thought about it, it was suitable for Zheng Chenggong.
Who has the ability to clean up the mess, has the prestige to lead the soldiers, and is capable of both land and water, who else but Zheng Chenggong?
It's just that Zhang Xuan didn't want to get this answer from Yuan Shizhong's mouth, but at this moment, he also knew that it was what everyone expected. If Zheng Chenggong is a person, Zhang Xuan will definitely be like Li Dingguo to Zheng Chenggong, and he will come up with a good story of a monarch and a minister. But Zheng Chenggong was never alone.
The independence of the Zheng Group has always been a headache for Zhang Xuan.
It has been delayed and never resolved.
Zhang Xuan had already done a good job of suppressing the Zheng family in Taiwan. After Zheng Chenggong's death, it will be disposed of. Or after the success of the Northern Expedition, deal with it, at that time, with the aftermath of the great victory, in a corner, what ability does the Zheng family have to resist, as long as the independence of the Zheng family is cut off, and the Zheng family is a prince for generations, it may not be impossible.
Therefore, from the beginning, Zhang Xuan did not want to use the power of the Zheng clan in the Northern Expedition.
As long as the Zheng family can block the South Seas.
Now that Zheng Chenggong is in charge of the Korean war, it will be difficult to take it back as soon as he lets go. Zheng Chenggong will definitely make contributions to North Korea, and maybe he will be able to complete Zhang Xuan's strategic plan, that is, to enter Liaodong from North Korea and contain the Qing court.
But in this way, the power of the Zheng family will definitely rise, and you can't let the horses run or let the horses eat grass again.
I'm afraid this situation will not be easy to clean up in the future.
"Now and thinking about the future, it's a little too far away." Zhang Xuan secretly said in his heart: "It's a big deal to fight." He made up his mind and said, "Pass the decree so that the king of Min can enter Beijing." ”
Zhang Xuan was able to go from a husband to his current position, although it was a coincidence, but under such experience, Zhang Xuan also had absolute confidence. The world can fight down, and there is no way to deal with the Zheng family, although there is a risk of getting out of control, but he is also confident to press it.
Then the other party is Zheng Chenggong.
