Chapter 210: Seven Telegrams

Gao Junshan sent a telegram back to Zhou Shichen: I hope you can overcome the difficulties, fully consider my opinion, and raid Balkhash City in the summer.

Because it was only the beginning of May, and there were still more than two months before the summer of the war, if Bailisha and their negotiating mission of the Rakshasa Kingdom were perfunctory, they could buy more time for Zhou Shichen and them to prepare.

Regarding the strange disease mentioned in the call, Gao Junshan believed that it was caused by the lack of adaptation to water and soil, and as long as the military doctor was asked to use the medicine rationally, the occurrence of such diseases would definitely be reduced. He remembered that Wu Liji had mentioned this disease to him, but he didn't elaborate, just said that mainlanders would suffer from a strange disease when they arrived outside the Saiwai, and Gao Junshan decided to ask him.

In order to prepare for a surprise attack on the Rakshasa Kingdom, Gao Junshan decided to send a telegram to Sun Dahai to transfer his Marine Brigade from the Aral Sea to the southern shore of Lake Balkhash to take up the task of assault the main attack.

In addition, the Second Army Division, which was sent to conduct adaptive training in the city of Karasar, also went to the southern shore of Lake Balkhash to increase Zhou Shichen's combat effectiveness.

The two groups of people he was going to send did not inform Zhou Shichen, and he had to wait for Zhou Shichen's reply before making a claim.

Another day later, Cai Zhishan called, the soldiers and civilians of Jinling City took the initiative to open the city gate to welcome our army into the city, Zhu Youxiang's small court was forced to surrender, asked how to deal with these people, and at the same time made a long list of surrenderers.

Gao Junshan circled a list of fourteen people in the list: Xu Wenjue, Duke of Wei, Zhu Guobi, Duke of Baoguo, Tang Guozuo, Marquis of Lingbi, Deng Wenyu, Marquis of Dingyuan, Qian Qianyi, Shangshu, Zhao Zhilong, Minister Zhao Zhilong, Wang Duo, Du Yushi Tang Shiji, Chief Soldier Tian Xiong, Chief Soldier Ma Degong, Deputy General Qiu Yue, Deputy General Zhang Jie, Partial General Huang Ming, and Partial General Chen Xiance were immediately executed.

In history, Xu Wenjue, Zhu Guobi, Tang Guozuo, Deng Wenyu, Qian Qianyi, Zhao Zhilong, Wang Duo, Tang Shiji and others took the initiative to shave their hair and reduce their hair, they are veritable traitors. It is absolutely impossible for Gao Junshan.

Tian Xiong, Ma Degong, Qiu Yue, Zhang Jie, Huang Ming, Chen Xiance and others in history were the vanguard of the Qing army, and even rushed to Zhu Youxiang's imperial boat and hijacked it to the Qing army. What is the use of such traitors seeking glory, and they are already cheapened by a thousand cuts.

After circling these 14 people, Gao Junshan circled the list of 84 people who were preferentially retained, including Shi Kefa, Qian Sule, Zhang Huangyan, Yan Yingyuan, He Tengjiao, and Zuo Maodi.

These 84 people were all well-known anti-Qing righteous soldiers in history, and all of them died heroically in the end. Because the crossing of the high mountains changed the direction of history, there was no massacre of our people by the Qing army going south, and the above 84 people (including tens of millions of people) were spared.

Deputy Chief of Staff Dai Zicheng admired Gao Junshan's resoluteness very much, but what he didn't understand was why Gao Junshan didn't even have to think about it, so he directly drew a list of who should be killed and who should be released.

He was very puzzled, and Gao Junshan also saw it, so he didn't bother to pay attention to him, and said in a firm tone: "Send a report to Cai Zhishan and Cao Wenzhao immediately, and send the list over!" ”

"Obey!"

Dai Zicheng went downstairs, and Gao Junshan paced around the room alone, thinking about his next move.

Jinling's problem was completely solved, and now he was not much excited, because as expected, he was still thinking about personnel arrangements.

He wants to transfer Cao Wenzhao to use, Cao Wenzhao is ruthless enough to use soldiers, and Zhou Shichen is too scholarly, he is ready to change his horse and replace Zhou Shichen.

Who will replace Cao Wenzhao to preside over the military administration in Jiangnan? It is definitely inappropriate to send Zhou Shichen, Zhou Shichen is the secretary of the military department of the dignified Military and Political Yuan, wouldn't sending him downgrade his status?

He considered using Li Guo.

Gao Junshan sent Li to Cao Wenzhao as a deputy general, Li Guo has always had an outstanding performance, and he is a rare brother of Gao Junshan in Li Zicheng's camp worthy of Gao Junshan's trust.

Not long after, Dai Zicheng came upstairs again and sent a telegram from Cao Wenzhao, the content of which was to report the accounts of Jinling's treasury to Gao Junshan.

Gao Junshan looked at this account, good guy, Jiangnan is really a rich place, just one year's account is enough for two years of expenses in the country, no wonder this Zhu Youxiang can live so freely and happily in Jinling, what is the use of this kind of rotten emperor? He decided to get rid of this Zhu Youxiang as soon as possible.

After taking Jinling, Gao Junshan had a lot to do, so he personally went down to the second floor and went straight to the telecommunications office.

His first telegram was addressed to Cao Wenzhao, which read as follows:

Let you lead 10,000 descendants, 1,000 skilled shipwrights and 1,000 shipbuilders in Jiangnan to set off as soon as possible and report to the city of Karasar in Xinjiang, and your army will be handed over to Li Guo to take over.

The second telegram was sent to Li Guo and read as follows:

Li Guo is hereby ordered to take over the post of commander of Cao Wenzhao's corps, and Cao Wenzhao's corps will be renamed Li Guo's corps, and the task of Li Guo's corps is to sweep away the remnants of Fengyang, cooperate with the Admiralty to control the entire Jiangnan region, and prepare for the next step of seizing the Liangguang region.

These two telegrams were forwarded to the Military Administration Yuan at the same time.

The third telegram was addressed to the Admiralty, which he sent directly to Zhou Wenjiang, the secretary of the Admiralty on Hainan Island, and the content was as follows:

The Admiralty immediately took over the Jiangnan Navy Army, including ships, shipyards and all other departments related to the Navy Army. Ordered the construction of a giant ocean-going ship at the Longjiang Shipyard in Jinling, and the required silver taels were allocated by the household department.

This telegram was forwarded to the Ministry of Household at the same time.

The fourth telegram was sent to the Ministry of Military Industry and read as follows:

The Jinling Longjiang Shipyard and the Huai'an Qingjiang Shipyard are already under my ownership, and I ordered your department to immediately organize technical forces to go to Jiangnan to assist the Admiralty in taking over all the ships, craftsmen, drawings, and navigation materials of the Jinling Shipyard and Taicang Shipyard, without losing anything.

This telegram was forwarded to the Admiralty at the same time.

The fifth telegram was sent to the Ministry of Households, which read as follows:

Your ministry immediately sent personnel to take over the Jinling treasury, and allocated 10 million taels of silver from the Jinling treasury every year to set up a special account for the construction of the ocean-going giant ship.

This telegram was forwarded at the same time to the Shoufu Bailisha and the Civil Affairs Yuan.

The sixth telegram was sent to Shoufu Perisha and read as follows:

Jinling succeeds, please quickly determine the candidate for the governor of Jinling and report to the imperial court for approval.

The seventh telegram was sent to the Mongol cavalry division and read as follows:

The commander of the cavalry division, Uliji, was ordered to come to the command quickly.

Gao Junshan dictated the seven telegrams to the telegraph operator, and he stood beside the young and beautiful telegrapher, watching her finish all six telegrams word for word, and then left the telegraph office with confidence.

"Your Majesty, your lunch is ready on the third floor." Sun Kewang saw Gao Junshan walk out of the telecommunications office and hurriedly stepped forward.

Hearing Sun Kewang say this, Gao Junshan felt that his stomach was already hungry, he raised his hand and looked at his watch, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

"You must not have eaten either, did you?" Gao Junshan asked Sun Kewang.

Sun Kewang said: "Your Majesty hasn't eaten yet, I don't dare to eat first." ”

Gao Junshan invited Sun Kewang to go upstairs to have dinner together.

With large shipyards such as Jinling Longjiang Shipyard and Huai'an Qingjiang Shipyard, building giant ocean-going ships is not a problem.

Jinling Shipyard is the largest shipyard in the official shipbuilding industry, the factory is vast, after the ship is built, it is directly launched in the Yangtze River, the division of labor in the factory is very fine, in addition to the main body of the ship, it is attached to the workshops of fine wood, paint, iron, gun, peng, rope, cable, etc., the craftsmen of this factory are all skilled workers recruited from Fujian, Guangdong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other places, there are more than 3,000 households.

The Jinling Shipyard also has a treasure ship branch, which specializes in manufacturing large high-end treasure ships for Zheng He's voyage to the West. According to historical records, Zheng He's treasure ship in the Western Ocean, the largest is 44 zhang 4 feet long, 18 zhang wide, the ship has four layers, the nine masts on the ship can hang 12 sails, the anchor weight is several thousand catties, it takes 200 people to set sail, and a ship can accommodate 1,000 people.

Such a ship is a real ocean-going giant ship, as long as it is modified and turned into a steam engine ship, it is a sea giant.

As long as there is such shipbuilding technology, there should be no problem in launching three or five giant ships within five years.
