Chapter 321: What are you doing?
There are 10,000 family troops in the Haizhou army, and these 10,000 people are nominally under Li Yuanjing's jurisdiction, but in fact they are also under his jurisdiction, but internally, Li Yuanjing has given power to themselves.
This 10,000 family army only needs to train with the large army and perform tasks together, anyway, you must carry out my orders, but internal promotion or punishment, that is your own business, on the premise of not violating the principles of the army, they have a lot of autonomy.
Li Shimin knows this, and among the 10,000 people, six of the five surnames and seven wangs have sent 1,000 people respectively.
In addition to the royal family Li family did not send people, even the Zhao County Li family also sent a thousand people, this was of course proposed by Li Yuanjing, Li Shimin ordered, also as a distant relative of the royal family, without Li Shimin's opening, they did not dare to take too initiative.
The remaining 4,000 people are rationed to those upstarts, their basic plate is not as big as the family gate, and it can't support him with a field of 1,000 people, so on average, there are only two or three hundred people in each family.
Of course, not all of these people are their children, it can only be said that the officers and some of the soldiers are the children of their surname, and most of the soldiers are from their loyal tenants, who have followed them for almost all generations, and even if they leave, they will choose to follow without hesitation.
But these don't matter, they can arrange it however they want, and Li Yuanjing is not too demanding in this regard.
Nearly thirty bigwigs came to the living room, but it was still a little crowded, and for a while, even the chairs with backrests were a little scarce, and the subordinates had to temporarily move some outside chairs to come in.
Fortunately, these people knew that what they were going to say next was related to their future, so no one cared about this, and sat down quietly and waited for Li Yuanjing to speak.
Li Yuanjing glanced at everyone and couldn't help but be a little speechless.
The so-called meeting, in fact, is a matter of a few words, a thing can be done in a few words, anyway, Li Yuanjing doesn't understand why he wants to hold a meeting for a few days because of one thing? Is it only a long time to show a relatively high force pattern?
Li Yuanjing didn't know what others thought, anyway, he didn't plan to do it.
After drinking a cup of tea, he woke up and moistened his throat, and went straight to the point: "Let's talk about the personnel arrangement first, since this is a long-distance voyage and the time to go out is unknown, the fleet will bring as few people as possible and more supplies."
On the side of the army, you need to make some trade-offs, each of the six of you can only bring 500 people, and the rest of the less than 500 people can bring everyone, and when you need to land, this king will replenish you to 500 people from the Haizhou army.
In addition, there are only five places for each family to go to sea with the ship, after all, this trip can only be regarded as exploration, to understand the general situation, and after returning to need detailed planning.
The king's suggestion is one or two direct descendants who can speak and get the right idea, one or two strategists, one or two professionals who know how to map and map, anyway, the quota is five, and you can consider how to distribute it yourself.
Finally, the Imperial Court will give preference to whether or not to use the discovered islands and landmasses as directly administered territories, and only when the Imperial Court decides that they will not be directly administered territories can you include them as your own alternative targets.
But please rest assured, the imperial court will not want any good place, but a strategic place like Tamna, the imperial court will not let go.
Finally, after choosing the candidates, this king suggests that you send people to Haizhou first, and let them follow the fleet for a few months to run Tamna and the peninsula, and even the Wa Kingdom, at least let them adapt to the hardships of long-distance sailing, and besides, if someone plays tricks after going to sea, then don't blame this king for being unkind! ”
"That's for sure! But Your Highness, there are only so many surveyors, will there be any problems? Wang Qi and the others nodded again and again.
Do you have any regrets? Naturally, of course, they hope to send as many people as possible, so that they can understand in more detail, obviously there are a thousand troops, but they can only go to five hundred, isn't it a pity?
"Of course not, the person you bring is just to give you a reassurance, so that you have a number in your heart, this king has prepared a drawing team of 200 people to travel with the ship, and the final auction of the imperial court will be based on the map drawn by this team." Li Yuanjing smiled, this kind of thing, how can it be what you say?
Listening to Li Yuanjing's words, everyone had nothing to say, the drawing was done by the imperial court, to put it bluntly, the people they sent were to verify that there were no mistakes in the drawings drawn by the imperial court, so they could participate in the competition according to the drawings provided by the imperial court with peace of mind.
They can also accept this approach, as for the imperial court to choose first, even if there is an opinion, there is no way to say this, strategic places, can the imperial court easily give up?
Although these feudal states are independent countries on the surface, they still belong to the Tang Dynasty in name, and don't forget, there are many things that have not yet been decided.
For example, land exchange, money to buy, the number of migrants, the proportion of annual tribute, the number of troops, whether the imperial court garrisoned, etc.?
These have not been discussed in detail, and now this matter is just the beginning, and most people know very well in their hearts that in the next one or two decades, I am afraid that they will be busy with this matter, but they are willing, and I am willing to buy it!
After saying this, Li Yuanjing sent the guest directly, everything that should be said was said, everything that should be explained was explained, and the rest was their own business, anyway, they announced it.
The date of departure is tentatively scheduled for February next year, but when exactly will it depend on how fast the fleet will be built.
These bigwigs left Zhao Wangfu one by one with thoughts in their hearts, but everyone didn't forget what they had promised before, and went to Pei's Mansion together by the way.
I don't expect them to stay in Pei Mansion for long, even if they enter the door and sit down to drink a cup of tea and leave, it will give Tianda face.
And on this day, Lawyer Pei was undoubtedly very satisfied, from the early morning to the crowd, to the arrival of a large number of low-level officials, followed by the visit of the eldest son of the wives of various families, and now the bigwigs have come in person.
Although most of them came to say a few polite words and left, although they all had something on their minds, Lawyer Pei was still happy in his heart.
What does the arrival of these people mean? It means that the Pei family did not fall because of Pei Lian's death, and on the other hand, Pei Lin has been cold for so long, and these big people will still come to the house for a trip, doesn't this explain the status of the Pei family?
Although Lawyer Pei heard that this was a special request made by Li Yuanjing to them, it didn't matter, Lawyer Pei made a lot of money today, and with this alone, what he did to offend Princess Linhai before was worth it.
Lawyer Pei was happy and tired and busy until the night, and Li Yuanjing was not much better here, although he was able to rest, he had to toast every other hour, until the sky darkened, and this was the end of the matter.
Naturally, there is no such thing as a hole room, even if the social atmosphere in this era is not so rigorous, but it is never open to the point where you can make a hole room at will.
After entering the cave room, Li Yuanjing first drank a glass of wine with Pei Yingying under the command of the officials and female officials of the Ministry of Rites, but this era is called Hexuan, after drinking, the officials of the Ministry of Rites retreated directly, and closed the door very spiritually, according to the guidance of the female official, Li Yuanjing slowly lifted the hijab on Pei Yingying's head.
At the moment when the hijab was lifted, Li Yuanjing was stunned, although the light was a little dim, the darkness could not hide Pei Yingying's appearance, the eldest grandson queen was right, Pei Yingying was worthy of herself!
"Wait, what are you doing?" Li Yuanjing, who had not yet escaped from the shock, suddenly felt that someone was picking up his clothes, and reacted and found that it was these female officials, Li Yuanjing couldn't help but have black lines on his forehead, what a special thing, Lao Tzu's wife is in front of you, do you dare to do this? Is it the other way around?
