Originally, Xu Guangqi played "Geometric Original", and then Sun Yuanhua played another book, for these, most civil officials and military generals are not interested, it is the attitude of who likes to look at it.

But at this time, not to mention those civil officials who think they can be scholars, even those military generals who don't even know how to read, can't help but want to go and see immediately, what does the scientific and technological foundation that the emperor said look like? After reading it yourself, will you be able to come up with a very brilliant idea on a whim?

Seeing that some courtiers were already asking Xu Guangqi and Sun Yuanhua in private, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but smile from the bottom of his heart. New things, even as an emperor, if you don't let your courtiers know the benefits, if you just force the oxen to eat grass and drink water, I'm afraid it will be difficult. But now, with the opportunity of opening up Siberia, the roughly usable steam engine was taken out in time, and by the way, these Ming officials became interested in science and technology, I have to say that this is a virtuous circle that can complement each other. I believe that when Xu Guangqi comes up with a specific plan to promote the basic knowledge of science and technology in the future, it will be easy to implement!

Thinking like this, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly had another thought.

So he immediately announced: "I have decided to build a new shipyard in Tongzhou for the manufacture of iron ships, all ships made of iron, using this steam engine as the power, no longer using boatmen to row oars, and to move forward against the wind!" ”

As soon as this decree was announced, it immediately attracted the attention of all the civil and military generals. Many people's first thought is to wonder: a ship made of iron? There used to be iron ships, but they were wooden ships wrapped in iron armor, and if they were all made of iron, wouldn't they sink? Of course, the first thought of some people is to focus on how the steam engine can power the ship. Anyway, everyone has a strong interest in this iron ship!

Looking at the expressions of the courtiers below, Emperor Chongzhen was happy in his heart. He wants this effect, in the shipyard in Tongzhou, in the future, will build an ironclad ship with great fanfare, whether it is practical or not, first build an ironclad ship that can be driven, to brighten the eyes of people in this era, in this way, it can indirectly play the largest and most effective role in the promotion of science and technology.

Finally, the court meeting ended.

The duration of this court meeting was no shorter than that of the previous court meeting. But in the past, when the court was over, many of the courtiers were tired, and not many people were willing to speak. But this time, all the civil and military generals, after Emperor Chongzhen left first, when they went out, they all whispered to their acquaintances and colleagues as they went, everyone either had doubts, or excitement, or excitement, or ......, among the many expressions, there was no tired color, no tired people who didn't want to talk!

And as these courtiers dispersed, the content of this court meeting also spread. If in the past, it was a great event in the Beijing division to be able to win a battle with Jianyu, but now at this time, this kind of news has no influence at all, and it is not even as gossipy as the topic of the emperor's private visit to Jiangnan Weifu in distress. But none of these news is as content as in this court meeting, which can shock and make people interested.

As for the prospects described by the emperor, the Jingshi, whether rich or poor, whether men, women, or children, all had their own interests and discussed them carefully. There are some excited, some happy, and of course some worried...... But in any case, the momentum is huge.

In the middle of October of the fifth year of Chongzhen, when the cold wind began to sweep through the north of the Ming Dynasty, Hai Lanzhu finally returned to Shanhaiguan with more than 700 horsemen and a Russian prisoner.

Emperor Chongzhen naturally did not break his promise, added the position of concubine to Hai Lanzhu, chose an auspicious day to marry Hai Lanzhu, and at the same time, sealed Buhe as the Earl of Horqin. This treatment can be said to be higher than that of Tian Guifei and Yuan Guifei, because only the queen's father was made an earl, and Tian Guifei's father was only awarded the Zuodu Governor at most in the original history.

No one has any objection to the treatment given by Emperor Chongzhen. After all, the Horqin clan took refuge in Daming very early, and secretly made many meritorious contributions to Daming, and in the end, even his son died in the war against Jianyu.

The Mongols who took refuge in this year also made them feel at ease when they saw that Emperor Chongzhen gave such treatment. Among the Han Chen, Shoufu Wen Tiren and others were a little dissenting, but with the death of Wu Keshan in battle, the Horqin clan went to Naturalization City for reorganization, which was also in line with the ancestral system, and the emperor's concubine's maiden family had no actual power, and there would be no relatives who would endanger the imperial power, so there was no objection.

In the Forbidden City, on the night of candles in the cave room, Emperor Chongzhen sat facing Hai Lanzhu and carefully looked at his bride.

To tell the truth, Hai Lanzhu is particularly beautiful today. In her, there is a kind of maturity that other concubines do not have. In this era, Hai Lanzhu is an older young woman, but in later generations, Hai Lanzhu has only graduated from college at this age and has just joined the work. At this age, for Emperor Chongzhen, who traveled in later generations, he would not mind in his heart.

Looking at her, thinking that in the original history, the Slave Chief Emperor Taiji was fascinated by her, and thinking about some legends about her in later generations, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly felt a little unreal. If he didn't seem to feel the butterfly effect before, then at this moment, in the face of the beautiful bride, he really felt the butterfly effect.

Thoughts slowly answered this era, Emperor Chongzhen remembered the first meeting between himself and her, thinking that she was wearing a man's dress that could no longer be fake, but he jumped out without noticing, thinking about the past in the chat group, and suddenly, a thought flashed in Emperor Chongzhen's mind: Is he and Hai Lanzhu an online dating? If so, it should be the earliest pair of online dating on the planet, right?

When Emperor Chongzhen looked at Hai Lanzhu, Hai Lanzhu was also looking at Emperor Chongzhen at the same time. She didn't have the shyness of the children of the Han family, so she looked at each other generously, but her cheeks were a little flushed, but it made her more moving.

Scenes and things about Emperor Chongzhen flashed in his mind, and seeing that Emperor Chongzhen didn't speak for a long time, Hai Lanzhu took the initiative to speak: "Your Majesty, I heard that Your Majesty wants to conquer Liaodong in person?" ”

"......" Emperor Chongzhen didn't expect that his bride would spend candles in the cave room, and the first thing he said was not to say, "It's not early, Your Majesty should rest", but asked about military affairs, is this a bit of a bad scenery!

However, Emperor Chongzhen thought about it, and he probably knew Hai Lanzhu's inner thoughts at this time, so he nodded and said: "I am already starting to prepare, including food, ordnance, army, and even the arrangements for officials after the war, and the affairs of governance in various places are also being prepared. If there is no accident, next year, when Jianyu is the weakest, he will drive the expedition in person and pacify Liaodong in one fell swoop! ”

"The concubine has a request." Hai Lanzhu listened, and said with a hint of sincerity on her face: "When you go on a personal expedition next year, I hope that Your Majesty can bring a concubine, and the concubine will see the revenge with her own eyes!" ”

Going on a trip with a concubine? Emperor Chongzhen thought, the courtiers are afraid that they will stop it, right? However, when he looked back, it was estimated that many courtiers would oppose the matter of his own personal conquest, so why should he care about this matter? And Hai Lanzhu is not as good as others, she can ride a horse and shoot arrows, she is also familiar with Liaodong, it will not be a burden to bring it, and she can still hug and sleep at night, but she can!

Thinking so, he agreed, which made Hai Lanzhu, who was a little hopeless, overjoyed. In addition to gratitude, he served the emperor with all his heart.

However, Emperor Chongzhen thought of his side from what happened just now, and it was time to make some preparations for the imperial expedition. Thinking so, he contacted Sun Chengzong, Cao Bianjiao, and Lu Xiangsheng on the Liaodong side on the second day, as well as Hong Chengchou in Guihua City, to convey his will.

At the same time, in the yamen hall of the prefect of Yongchang Mansion in Yunnan, it was not the prefect of Yongchang Mansion who sat on the main seat, but two people sitting side by side. One of them was wearing a python robe, while the other was wearing a big red scarlet robe, which at a glance knew that it was much larger than the prefect.

The older one was the minister of the Qincha and the auxiliary minister of the cabinet, Min Hongxue, and he saw him scanning the people below. On his left-hand side are the generals at all levels who have organized and trained the Tang Wang's army, and on his right-hand side, there are all kinds of Tusi who have been summoned.

At this time, he said with a majestic expression: "Dongwu is a small country on the side, but he has coveted China for a long time!" Over the years, ignoring the magnanimity of our Ming Emperor, he has repeatedly violated the border, killed my people, robbed my property, and even forcibly occupied my Ming territory and did not return it. If you don't teach them all these evil deeds, you won't be able to warn other countries! ”

The toasts standing at the bottom are from the Wadian Pacification Division, the Ganya Pacification Division, the Zhandafu Pacification Division, the Manmo Pacification Division, the Longchuan Pacification Division, the Lujiang Pacification Division, and so on. The territories of these Tusi are between Yongchang Mansion and the border of Daming. It can be said that if Donggo's troops continue to advance, their territory will also be threatened.

Therefore, when they heard Da Ming Qincha's words at this time, they all showed happy smiles.

In the past, they had been worried. Since the fierce transfer of Liu Zhen to the north, on the Yunnan side, only Dongwu attacked the Ming Kingdom, burned and looted, but the imperial court has not moved. Mengmi, Mengyang, and Mubang, the places closest to Dongwu, were all captured by Dongwu. They had to be afraid, for fear that if Dong Wu fought further, their respective strength would not be able to resist Dong Wu's soldiers, and they would have to go to the end of Bu Mu Bang and other places.

In fact, in the original history, the Ming Dynasty was powerless for the construction of the north, as well as natural and man-made disasters in various places, and even thieves running around, let alone taking care of the southwest border. Because of this, the Ming Dynasty never sent troops to Dongwu until its demise.

These toasts are even more happy for this time, which is obviously not as good as the previous specifications.

In the past, even if the imperial court wanted to deal with Dongwu, it would only let the governor of Yunnan solve it by himself. But this time, it was the cabinet auxiliary ministers who took the lead as the ministers, although I don't know what it means that the vassal king of Tang also came, but this kind of specification is enough to prove the importance of the imperial court. It seems that the imperial court is serious about Dongwu!

While they were thinking, Min Hongxue continued: "I have summoned you today to let you know that what Dongwu has done for him must pay a price. The imperial court decided to send troops and teach Donggo a hard lesson. You each sent troops, took charge of food and grass materials on your own, cooperated with the imperial army, and soon marched out, do you have any opinions? ”

The war against Dongwu has always been a practice of asking local Tusi to send troops to cooperate. Therefore, Min Hongxue's request, these toasts did not object at all. In fact, when the imperial army came to Yongchang Mansion from Yunnan, although it was said that it was a matter of the reform of the military system of the guard, some sharp Tusi had already noticed it. At this time, it was confirmed, and the prepared Tusi immediately came out of the ranks, patted his chest and promised loudly: "Lord Qincha, but please rest assured, I, the Pacification Division, am willing to send 2,000 troops to cooperate with the imperial army!" ”

"I, the Lujiang Pacification Division, am also willing to contribute 1,500 troops, and I will be dispatched by Lord Qincha alone!"

“……”

Tang Wang, who was sitting next to Min Hongxue, was very excited to participate in such a military conference for the first time, especially when he heard that these toasts were very cooperative, and he was even more happy in his heart. With the army under his command as the backbone, with the cooperation of these Tusi troops, it is believed that attacking Dongwu should destroy the ancient decay.

And Min Hongxue had been the governor of Yungui before, and he knew more about the situation of the Tusi, although these Tusi reported one after another with generosity, but he was not a little happy. Because he knows that the soldiers and horses of these toasts are actually not very strong, and they can be used to fight, and they can also show their fierce side when they fight against the wind. But if it is a tough battle, these toast soldiers will not be reliable. The key battle with Dongwu still depends on the imperial army to fight it by itself!

After listening to them, Min Hongxue nodded in response, and then said solemnly: "In this case, you should go back and prepare the soldiers and horses first, and within half a month, you must obey the order and not have any slack." If anyone dares to delay the military aircraft, the official will severely punish him! ”

He is a minister and an auxiliary minister of the cabinet, and when he says it, it is like a thunderstorm, and no one dares to fart. As soon as the military discussion was over, these toasts rushed to their pacification division.

In the back hall of the prefect's yamen, King Tang finally recovered from his excitement, remembered something, and couldn't help but be a little worried, so he said to Min Hongxue, who was drinking tea: "If some of these people in the toast have colluded with Dongwu, the news that we will send troops to the Ming Dynasty will definitely be passed back by them, so wouldn't Dongwu be prepared?" ”

After saying that, he felt a little difficult again. This matter must be told to these toasts, because they need to use their troops, but there is a risk of news leakage, which seems to be a bit of a dilemma!

Who knew that Min Hongxue listened, but he was still drinking tea unhurriedly.
