Chapter Fifty-Six: Returning to Beijing is Blocked from Traveling to the Water
Chapter 56 Returning to Beijing was blocked from traveling by water
"Oh? Ma Aiqing has any good ideas, you might as well talk about it. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info King Qi looked at Ma Daoyuan, he remembered that the last time he asked, Ma Daoyuan said that he would go back to study and study.
Liu Wenjian was slightly relieved when he saw Ma Daoyuan stand up and speak, as if he saw that the last time Chen Zichen pit Ma Daoyuan was still in front of him.
Although Ma Daoyuan is not on their side, he and Chen Zichen have formed a relationship, Liu Wenjian is naturally relieved, and it is expected that Ma Daoyuan will not talk nonsense.
"The king, according to the affordable range of the household department, under the additional budget, can support the development of the naval army with an army of 50,000, of course, this is very different from the 100,000 required by the king, but the household department can only allocate so much military salary, if the king insists on developing 100,000, unless the king allocates funds from the interior." Ma Daoyuan didn't tell a lie, but as soon as he said this, Liu Wenjian and Dong Li couldn't calm down.
An additional 50,000 trolls can be supported. This is a lot of expense, not only to raise troops, but also to maintain the ships. Why has the Ministry of War been suppressing the water army? Because soldiers are easy to raise, but ships are not easy to raise.
"King, 50,000 is too much, I think 20,000 is enough." Dong Li thought about it for a while, and did not deny King Qi's plan to build a navy, now he was thinking about reducing the size of the navy, and he could do something about military salaries in the future, and he was more thinking about how to get the extra money from Ma Daoyuan.
In the past, when he went to the household department to allocate funds, Ma Daoyuan was always pushing and shoving, always deducting military salaries, and sometimes he wanted to spend a penny as ten cents.
Now that Ma Daoyuan himself said that there is so much extra money, of course he has to go and knock on it.
Liu Wenjian saw that Dong Li seemed to have changed his strategy, and he was a little dissatisfied, and still said to King Qi: "King, in my opinion, the navy must not develop like this, as the saying goes, there are not many soldiers, but the essence is fine, in my opinion, if you don't support the navy to update the battleship, as for the soldiers, it will be replenished completely, and there is no need to expand." ”
After speaking, Liu Wenjian glanced at Dong Li, as if to say, you kid is not righteous enough, you don't come to take the lead in the affairs of your military department, but I will help you.
Dong Li naturally saw Liu Wenjian's unkind gaze.
However, Dong Li's thoughts now are good for you, good for me, and good for everyone, but he directly aimed at Ma Daoyuan's daily military salary, and told him to do it again, except for losing both, there was nothing in the end.
"Okay, just now the widow was also in a hurry, I didn't think about it comprehensively, what Ma Aiqing said makes sense, 100,000 is indeed too much, according to what Ma Aiqing said, 50,000, so 30,000 in Jiangmen and 20,000 in Linshui, this is the best way. You don't have to fight. King Qi said bluntly.
King Qi just thought about Ma Daoyuan's words carefully, it was still very reasonable, although he trusted Chen Zichen himself, but cultivating a hundred thousand sailors was not a trivial matter, he could only take his time, and it would be good to give fifty thousand now.
According to common sense, such a thing as the army formation, unless it is the Gyeonggi battalion and the Imperial Forest Army, the rest should be the affairs of the military department, and if it is taken out separately in the court today, it is destined to cause controversy.
"Your Majesty, please think twice." Dong Li knelt down and admonished.
Along with Dong Li's kneeling, there were also cadres from the military department, as well as members of the main battle faction.
"King, think twice before you act." Liu Wenjian also knelt down and asked King Qi to be cautious.
Needless to say, the conservatives led by Liu Wenjian also knelt down.
The rest of the people standing on the court looked at each other.
What is strange is that Yu Qingxian, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, did not kneel, but looked at the full house, not knowing what he was thinking.
King Qi watched so many people kneel down and ask for their lives, but instead asked Chen Fudao, "Chen Aiqing, how do you think this matter can be resolved?" ”
Chen Fudao knew that King Qi would ask him sooner or later, but it was only a matter of time.
Chen Fudao looked at the people who knelt down, paused and said: "Since the founding of the Great Qi, there has been no attention to the water army, although there is a water army, but it is only to deter the water bandits in the two cities, as well as to protect the transportation on the water, my Daqi is not like the Jiang Shui Gao clan, Wang Clan, Jiang Shui Gao Clan, Wang Clan is known for the water army, it is actually its regional problem, according to local conditions, because of the needs, as Dong Daren, Liu Daren and Ma Da said, even if there are various reasons, the fight is a benefit. ”
When Chen Fudao bluntly said the word 'benefit', Dong Li and Liu Wenjian's bodies were shocked, and of course there were many people who were the same.
Seeing that the King of Qi nodded, Chen Fudao continued: "I don't think your lords will make the country because of profit, my Great Qi has been weak for a long time, this time I took advantage of the extermination of 30,000 water bandits, how is it not an opportunity to boost morale, the development of the water army has not exceeded 10,000 in my Great Qi since ancient times, since the king has already wanted to build a camp for the water army, is it only to build a large camp of 20,000 people?" Doesn't this make the world laugh at it, is it that the army of the Qi State is so stingy even to build a battalion? ”
If it weren't for the court, King Qi would want to applaud, worthy of being an old minister, and what he said was both praised and beaten, which was both reasonable and difficult to refute.
Sure enough, the ginger is still old and spicy.
King Qi secretly thought that he had already let Chen Fudao say it at the beginning.
In fact, if it is not good to let Chen Fudao say it at the beginning, it is at this embarrassing time that it is just right to let Chen Fudao say it.
Timing is the key to victory. For the sake of his son, but also for the three major families to further implement the plan, Chen Fudao has been brewing for a long time.
Dong Li lowered his head and knelt here for a long time a little uncomfortable, but he couldn't help but glance at the old man standing here talking eloquently out of the corner of his eye.
Although Liu Wenjian was unconvinced, but there was no way, Chen Fudao's words were clear, don't lead to the destruction of the country because of interests. Raised things up several heights.
“.。 The king, what the minister said is nothing more than a reason, take this opportunity to be a water army, 50,000 people, there is no pressure on the household, and it can improve morale, and it can also deter the Wang family who has been provoking in the water. Prevention is the eternal truth. The king's decision at this time was very wise. Chen Fudao spoke at length, argued with reason, and finally finished speaking, and by the way, he also flattered King Qi. King Qi couldn't help but nod when he heard it.
The time for Chen Fudao's words to make the ministers kneeling here cry bitterly.
In fact, there was a pause in Chen Fudao in the middle, King Qi deliberately did not call them up, just to dry them, and these gangsters in the province always knelt down and collectively admonished at every turn. made King Qi unable to come to the stage.
After getting the words of King Qi, the ministers slowly got up slowly, some people really couldn't do it, they swayed when they stood up, and some even trembled their knees.
Liu Wenjian stood up a little unsteadily, Chen Fudao smiled and held him up, Liu Wenjian was embarrassed and couldn't wait to find a hole to get into.
"Well, what Chen Aiqing said just now is very reasonable, I believe that everyone has heard the advantages of building a water army, and the widow will not say much, so it is decided. The widow looks at Chen Zichen as the governor of the navy, but he can't stay outside, just command in Beijing. There's something waiting for him in Kyosato. King Qi settled everything by the way.
Dong Li and Liu Wenjian can't say anything, it's all said to this point, it's useless to talk about it, and I don't know why King Qi is so strong as to support Chen Zichen. Could it be that two people are good Longyang? It doesn't look like it, after all, King Qi still has a beautiful queen.
I don't know, I originally thought that the matter would end like this, Yu Qingxian, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, stood up and said: "King, at this time, the old minister has some opinions. ”
"Oh? I don't know what Yu Aiqing thinks. King Qi looked at the old Yu Qingxian and asked.
"King, Lord Chen Zichen is certainly good at leading the army, although the Jiangmen Navy has improved, but the Navy near the water still needs Lord Chen Zichen to train, I am worried that others will not be able to carry out the king's will well, I think Lord Chen must also be willing to go to the water to train the army, I believe that Lord Chen will not live up to the king's hard work." Yu Qingxian's words are really superior.
In fact, Yu Qingxian has only one purpose, and he can't let Chen Zichen return to Beijing.
If Chen Zichen returns to Beijing, then it will be difficult for him to interfere in his son's trial, and if Chen Zichen returns to Beijing, how should he do anything to him?
Yu Qingxian's forbearance does not mean that he is cowardly, let alone that he is not ruthless. To be able to work in the position of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry for so many years, and to be the core of the reformers, he naturally has the means. His methods can be seen from the fact that he was able to quickly wipe out the clues between his son and his own side.
Hearing Yu Qingxian's words, Liu Wenjian and Dong Li glanced at each other and smiled slightly...
