Chapter 0573 - Actually, I Am the Same
Quanzhou Port is a general name. In fact, it is not just one port, but consists of multiple ports.
This is the starting point of the Maritime Silk Road, which flourished in the Tang, Song and Yuan dynasties. After the Ming Dynasty, due to the sea ban policy, it gradually declined.
In the Dade period, the policy was roughly the same as that of the Ming Dynasty, so the decline trend of the Ming Dynasty continued. There are no more glorious times like ancient times.
Despite this, it is also one of the most important ports in Middle-earth. Many ships from foreign countries still dock here.
Douwei Port is one of the many ports.
Not far away, there were sporadic gunshots from time to time, it was the soldiers of the First Brigade of the Beihai Volunteer Army, attacking the city.
The Municipal Shipping Department is the agency that manages the port, and here, in fact, it also assumes the responsibilities of the local yamen. Similar to the Bukui Yamen, which is an institution that integrates military and government, Quanzhou City Bosi is a yamen that integrates politics and business.
After the establishment of the Tianshun Dynasty, the officials of the Dade era were retained. Of course, the chief officer and the head of the garrison were replaced by the people of the three feudatories.
The garrison here was not much, only two hundred people, including seventy or eighty sailors.
The so-called navy is not actually a combat unit, but an anti-smuggling team basically composed of tax collectors.
In terms of government decrees, he obeyed the orders of the Fujian political envoys.
Therefore, the defense force of Quanzhou Port is actually very weak. When Feng Ziying arrived here, the defenders landed easily almost without resistance.
At this time, Feng Ziying was sitting in a tea house and was slowly drinking tea.
By his side were the three regiment commanders Feng Zipu, Feng Zimiao, and Wei Ruoshan.
Not far away, five people approached.
These five people are Xie Baochai, Xie Baoli, Jia Qin, and Cervante, who are already waiting here.
These people all went to France with Jia Min.
Later, Jia Qin, Xie Baoli and Cervante stayed in France, responsible for dealing with Beihai's affairs in France.
These affairs mainly include three things.
The first is the arms matter of the Luofu Arsenal, and the second is the trade of tobacco and porcelain and other materials in the North Sea in Europe. The other is the sale of Beihai's liquor making equipment in Europe.
In the past few years, La Meihua has been busy with trade between France and the North Sea, almost every time, she has to go back and forth with the fleet, almost all the year round at sea.
"Chief of Staff Feng, you're late, I've been waiting for you here for nine days."
As soon as they met, Lamei came over with an exaggerated expression and gave Feng Ziying a French hug.
Although Feng Ziying has never been to France, she also knows the customs there through the mouths of others. Although he was still a little unaccustomed to it, he still accepted the hug of the plum blossom.
However, when Lamei wanted to give him another face-to-face salute, he was avoided by Feng Ziying.
"You see, Chief of Staff Feng is still a little shy. If Chief Min is here, he must want me to kiss him. ”
"Hehe, at this point, I'm not as good as Chief Min."
Everyone also knew who Lamei was, so they laughed at it.
After Feng Ziying met Jia Qin and the others, she talked about serious things.
"How's it going, Plum Blossom, are all my ammunition ready?"
"Don't worry, it's full of three boats, enough for you to hit the imperial capital. In addition, two boats were also prepared for Chen Yejun. As for Chief Min, it's up to him. ”
"Chief Min naturally has a way, so we don't have to worry about it. Well, with the ammo, I can sweep through the lair of the three feudatories. Jia Qin, Rose, you two can stay with me. Just give me the intelligence business. ”
"Obey the orders of Chief of Staff Feng."
"Mr. Sevante and Mrs. Sevante, the two of you will go north with Zhengla Meihua to Chen Yejun. There is also a lot of manpower there. You've been in Gangnam before, you're familiar with the situation there, so be there to help. ”
"Willing to listen to Chief of Staff Feng's arrangement."
"Three regimental commanders, you go and receive ammunition and camp here tonight. At eight o'clock tomorrow morning, Feng Zipu set sail to capture Gwangju by water, and after entering Gwangju, he continued to capture Guangxi and Yunnan. Wei Ruoshan, you and I will capture Fuzhou by water, and then enter Hunan and Guizhou. ”
"Feng Zimiao, you start from here, capture Jiangxi by land, and then enter Hubei and Bashu. When I arrived in Hunan, I stayed there and waited for you to meet, and then we went north together. ”
Feng Ziying finished arranging. The three regiment commanders each went to Zhang Luo for their own military affairs, while Feng Ziying continued to be with Lamei and others, drinking tea while talking about the Beihai side's march into Tianshun.
"Chief of Staff Feng, this time Chief Min's hand is very big, and it is clear that he wants to dominate the world."
La Meihua is a smart person, and as soon as she heard Feng Ziying introduce the operation, she saw the clues.
"The three feudatories went against the grain, brazenly rebelled, and stole the world. This time, they must hand over the world. ”
"Is Chief Min going to be the emperor?"
"Well. Chief Min didn't say anything. However, if Chief Min is the emperor, it is more than enough. ”
"Actually, I don't think it's interesting for Chief Min to be this emperor."
Lamei said lightly.
"Oh? There's something special about you. In the whole world, who doesn't want to be an emperor if he has a little ability? ”
Regarding the point of view of Lamei Blossom, Feng Ziying was indeed a little surprised.
The reason for Jia Min's dispatch to Tianshun this time is actually relatively vague.
At present, the relatively clear reason is to avenge his sister Jia Yuanchun and uncle Wang Ziteng.
As for the combat target, he said that whoever gets in the way will be hit, whoever is not convinced will be hit, and whoever is not pleasing to the eye will be hit. In fact, he can hit whoever he wants.
According to this standard, the original Dade and the three feudatories were his combat targets.
Now that Dade is dead, the battle target is the three feudatories of the past, and today's Tianshun Dynasty.
According to his strategic layout, it is also to seize the posture of the world.
As for what to do after winning the world, Jia Min has never said it, and he has never discussed this issue with Feng Ziying and others.
However, this is a problem after all.
The goal now is to overthrow the Tianshun Dynasty. After it is overthrown, it cannot be left alone, let it go into chaos, and it is bound to clean up the mess.
In fact, the way out is also obvious, there are only two ways.
One is to restore the Daitoku Dynasty, and the other is to establish a new one.
At present, it seems that the royal bloodline of Dade is the abolished emperor Zhao Yingqi, and the second is the abolished Chu king Zhao Yinglin.
These two people are not made goods. Neither personal ability, character, nor prestige are sufficient to convince the public. No matter who becomes the emperor, the great virtue after the restoration of the country is not optimistic.
If a new dynasty is established and Jia Min becomes the emperor, in Beihai, it is naturally expected by everyone.
Under the strong deterrence of the military forces in the North Sea, the other parties did not dare to say anything.
However, Jia Min himself has never expressed any wishes in this regard.
Of course, maybe he had this intention in his heart, but he just didn't say it.
For Feng Ziying, Chen Yejun, Wei Ruolan and others, as Jia Min's most core team, they will naturally consider this issue.
This is both from the perspective of their common cause and from the perspective of individuals.
Being able to build a new dynasty gives them a great sense of accomplishment. As the most important founding heroes, they will also reap great benefits.
The honor, status, wealth, and place of an individual and family in history are great temptations.
Therefore, in their hearts, they all hope that Jia Min will be the emperor in the future.
In fact, judging from the strategic layout this time, it is indeed this trend.
Compared with this strategic layout, Jia Min's so-called reason for avenging his sister and uncle seems to be a little incompatible with this grand layout.
Of course, they also know that even if Jia Min becomes the emperor, it will be a matter of the future. The current goal is to defeat Tianshun first.
"Dade is very big, very big, many things, inherited for a long time, and the disadvantages are very deep. Whoever becomes the emperor is difficult to change. Even Chief Min, the same is true. Therefore, being this emperor is purely a thankless errand. ”
La Meihua began to explain her reasons.
"Whether it is Dade or Tianshun, it is different from our Beihai, Bukui, and Wendula. These places are far away from the imperial court, and the imperial court has never had much influence there, so Chief Min can turn his ideas into reality according to his own wishes. ”
"There is some truth in what you say, what Chief Min often says, a blank piece of paper, so as to draw the latest and most beautiful picture, that's what it means."
Feng Ziying also agrees with this reason.
"But in Dade it's different. If Chief Min becomes the emperor, it will naturally be us who assist him. Whether it is Chief Min or us, do we do things according to our rules, or according to the rules of Dade and Tianshun? ”
Lamei stared at Feng Ziying and asked a more pointed question.
"Naturally, we follow our rules. If you continue to follow their rules, will you be in chaos again? ”
"Okay, Chief of Staff Feng, if you follow our rules, will it work here? At that time, I'm afraid that Chief Min and we will be alone. ”
La Meihua's point of view shocked Feng Ziying's heart.
However, he had to admit that what Lamei said was indeed reasonable.
Since he followed Jia Min, from doing business, to training troops in the government corps, to governing Bukui, to developing and governing Beihai, and then to this march into Middle-earth, he has actually been acting in accordance with Jia Min's philosophy.
In many places, this set of concepts is incompatible with the concepts and practices of Dade, and some of them are even contrary to the Tao.
Bringing the concepts and practices of Beihai here is indeed facing a huge challenge. If it is forced, it will inevitably cause a huge backlash.
At that time, the result is likely to be chaos in the government and turmoil in the world.
Although Lamei was born in South Wendura, she studied in Shengjing since she was a child, and has since traveled to various parts of Dade.
After being defeated by Jia Min, he basically wandered in Jia Min's circle, and later followed Jia Min to France, and since then has been traveling between Europe and the North Sea, and has seen a wide range of things.
The deep reason why she is now willingly running for Beihai is that she agrees with Jia Min's ideas and practices.
The insights that are now being put forward are indeed insightful.
"La Meihua, it seems that I have thought a little more simply about this matter. I promise you that I will consider this matter carefully in the future. ”
"It's good that Chief of Staff Feng understands my intentions. I think that the responsibility of Chief Min is too heavy and his life is too hard. Actually, I'd love to see him live a more relaxed life. ”
"Lameihua, thank you for your heartfelt words, in fact, I am the same."
Feng Ziying believes that Lameihua's words are sincere.
He felt that he had underestimated her a little before.
