Chapter 108 Ming Pao

"The good news from Xi'an has arrived?" Yang Su's voice came from inside the hall.

Wang Chengen ran in with a surprise in his hand, and shouted in his mouth, "The slave and maid contributed to the emperor, and Hong Chengchou defeated millions of rogues and achieved a great victory!" ”

Yang Su took the fold and looked at it, Hong Chengchou didn't dare to write out the reason for the victory in 1510, this seemingly absurd fold made Yang Su very satisfied, Hong Chengchou still has a sense of shame, and he can still use it!

"Congratulations to the emperor, this great victory is enough to greatly damage the strength of the rogues, the minister suggested that the emperor Chen Sheng pursue, at this time, we should implement the joint defense strategy of Yang Sichang's ten provinces, in order to completely exterminate the rogues, so that my Ming Dynasty is stable internally, and there will be no more rogue invasion!" Wen Zhenmeng said solemnly.

"What Wen Zhenmeng said is very true, it is true that Chen Sheng wants to pursue and completely exterminate the Liukou, but now the thief is all besieged by the official army in Shaanxi, according to Hong Chengchou's performance, the steep roads in Shaanxi are heavily guarded, and when Qin Liangyu and Lu Xiangsheng's army arrives, they can annihilate the Liukou in Shaanxi.

I believe that with Hong Chengchou's ability, he will never talk nonsense, and he must be sure that he can wipe out most of the rogues, and even if some rogues escape from Shaanxi, it will not hinder the overall situation, so the strategy of increasing the number of troops by 200,000 in the joint defense of the ten provinces is not possible now, but now that Hong Chengchou has few soldiers, I want to order Huang Degong to train 50,000 forbidden troops again, and send 20,000 forbidden troops with a high potential to Shaanxi to suppress thieves! Yang Su followed Wen Zhenmeng's words and expressed his intentions.

"Didn't the Emperor's Forbidden Army merge the Warrior Battalion and the Four Guards Battalion into the Warrior Battalion and expand to 30,000 people? If it is expanded by 50,000, then the forbidden army will have 80,000 people, and the three major battalions in the capital are only 200,000. Qian Shisheng said cautiously.

"The forbidden army will be led by a military attache in the future, and the eunuch will supervise the army, no need to say more!" Yang Suman waved his hand indifferently.

"Your Majesty, the provinces recruit local soldiers to suppress thieves, they must be effective, and they will only need more than a month to defend the city to prepare for the rogues, and the emperor is afraid that it will be too late to train the forbidden army now, and the minister thinks that it is appropriate to adopt Yang Sichang's strategy!" Wen Zhenmeng's words were fierce and unscrupulous.

"It's because the forbidden army is only 30,000 people, why do I have to add another 200,000 troops to the ten provinces? Wen Zhenmeng, what do you want? Yang Su raised his head slightly, squinted his eyes, and asked Wen Zhenmeng softly.

"It's the minister who is stupid and hasn't thought it through, please forgive the emperor!" A trace of shame flashed on Wen Zhenmeng's face, and he had to bow his head to Yang Su.

"The emperor is also loyal, so he asks the emperor for forgiveness!" Qian Shisheng hurriedly persuaded him.

"The rewards of the front-line soldiers, let Hong Chengchou provide a detailed list, and the household department will not be rewarded with silver if there is no silver, so the reward for the soldiers will come from me! The soldiers died for me, and I can't chill them! Yang Su said in a big way.

"The Emperor Shengming!" All the ministers praised.

"Your Majesty, Lord Xiao Mingxiao is already waiting outside the palace!" Wang Chengen reminded softly.

"Xuan he enters the palace" Yang Su nodded, and said to the ministers, "It's okay, just retreat!" ”

"Wait for the resignation!" After Wen Tiren and the others saluted, they bent down and withdrew from the hall, just in time to meet Xiao Ming, who was about to face the saint.

"Xiaguan Xiao Ming has seen all of you!" Xiao Ming smiled and saluted the ministers.

"Humph!" Wen Zhenmeng snorted coldly, didn't even look at Xiao Ming, and walked directly past him with his head held high.

Xiao Ming was not embarrassed when he saw this, he still smiled and did not squint.

"The old man recently heard that Lord Xiao is very busy! Always gathering with a group of Hanlin day and night, I wonder if Lord Xiao is interested in letting the old man join in the fun? Wen Tiren walked up to Xiao Ming and asked with a smile.

"The lower official is just busy working blindly, Lord Shoufu is in charge of state affairs, and the lower official will not dare to trouble Lord Shoufu about these small things!" Xiao Ming seemed to be tactful, but he resolutely refused.

"Hehe, Lord Xiao should do it for himself!" Wen Tiren left with Wang Yingxiong without smiling.

"Humph!" Xiao Ming watched Wen Tiren leave with a sneer, then turned his head and walked into the hall with a flattering face, knelt down and saluted Yang Su, "Your Majesty, the minister is here!" ”

"I've heard you've been doing a good job lately! It's a big commotion! Yang Su praised softly.

"The ministers can have today all thanks to the emperor's grace, and this time it is also thanks to the emperor's trust, so that a group of loyal and righteous people from the Hanlin Academy, Guozijian, and Qintianjian can gather a group of loyal and righteous people to serve the emperor together, and they will never dare to have the slightest selfishness, please ask the emperor to be clear!" Xiao Ming bowed his head and cried loudly.

Xiao Ming has been pulling people into the party recently, and the momentum has been very big, and there have been royal histories accusing him of forming a party for personal gain, but these twists and turns have been burned by Cao Huachun, which is undoubtedly Yang Su's acquiescence.

Many frustrated officials saw the direction of the wind and threw themselves to Xiao Ming's side, for a time Xiao Ming's party had hundreds of people in just ten days, although there was no participation of the DPRK and the Central Committee, but it was also a big force, Yang Su of course wanted to beat some Xiao Ming, so that he would not follow the old path of Wen Tiren.

"Don't learn from Wen Tiren, don't let me down!" Yang Su said bluntly.

"All the ministers are given by the emperor, and they will never dare to have the slightest dissent!" Xiao Ming swore to the sky.

"Get up!" Yang Su nodded, let Xiao Ming calm down, and asked casually, "How are you progressing about the Di report?" ”

Di Bao is the newspaper of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty already has a variety of newspapers, such as the Dynasty newspaper, the Beijing newspaper, the urgent election newspaper, the daily newspaper, the types of newspapers are wide and miscellaneous, it happens that the Ming Dynasty has not to speak of the crime, so from the emperor, down to the common people, a large number of officials in the middle, all kinds of rumors have been reported.

Different newspapers also cover politics, economics, culture, military, diplomacy, and all these aspects of society.

However, the Ming Dynasty never thought of controlling the news with the idea of not criminalizing speech.

The remarks of the government and the opposition were taken advantage of by the Donglin Party, the enemies of the Donglin Party have always been traitors, and the Donglin Party members are all admired by the people and trusted by the emperor.

Energy, military industry, finance, and journalism are the basis for the oligarchs of later generations to influence the country. The same applies in the Ming Dynasty, salt and iron mines are energy, but unfortunately they are not in the hands of Yang Su, and Yang Su can't even collect taxes.

The military industry is mainly firearms, and Yang Su just took advantage of the officials' lack of attention to technology, and summoned most of the military craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty to the capital to develop firearms for him.

Finance is now the ticket number and money, although the imperial court does not allow private money, but repeatedly prohibited, the ticket number is controlled by businessmen, the court does not pay attention to it at all, do not know the power of finance!

Not to mention the news, the importance of propaganda brainwashing, in this people's wisdom is not opened, the probability of illiteracy is as high as 100 to 100 to 1 in the Ming Dynasty, it is self-evident!

Yang Su wants to take advantage of the fact that everyone doesn't know the importance of propaganda, first control the world's speech in his own hands, engage in a personality cult as his emperor, collect the people's beliefs, and gather the hearts of the people in the world when the time comes, who in the Three Realms can fight against him!
