Chapter 69: The Final War, the Death of Yaozhou (4)
The fold from Gaizhou was placed in front of Zhu Jian, because it was covered with the treasure seal of the Jing Navy, so after receiving the fold, the cabinet immediately handed the fold into the palace. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
To say that this fold was sent from Gaizhou to Beijing a day ago, delivered by sea mail, and then transferred to land transportation, it is necessary to say that although the Ming Empire abolished the post station, it was the establishment of the Ministry of Posts and Communications.
The newly established Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications is very different from the old post station, but it has abolished the previous post station as a way for officials to be promoted and the family members of officials to eat and drink nonsense, and is responsible for the delivery of military, political and civilian letters within the empire, including two sets of land and sea.
And because of the establishment of the Imperial Postal Department, the Imperial Realm, this exchange of news is much more convenient.
As for the functions of the former post station, the accommodation of those officials was transferred to the locality, and was run by the common people and merchants, and the empire gave them the certificate to open it, and paid a certain fee, so that they could continue to operate as usual, and were protected by the laws of the empire.
The excerpts from Gaizhou were able to reach Beijing so quickly, but they also benefited from the good rules and regulations of the new Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, including the new transportation equipment, steamships, and trains.
"Your Majesty, Elder Yang Ge and Master Li have been waiting for a long time!"
"Oh, pass them in."
Hearing the words of the little eunuch who heard the rumor, Zhu Jian was able to close the fold in front of him, and called out loud.
Not long after, Li Yan and Yang Sichang entered this Fengtian Hall together.
"The ministers have seen Your Majesty!"
"Oh, let the two Aiqing wait for a long time, come on, give the two Aiqing a seat!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After the two of them sat down, they saw Yang Sichang speak up.
"Your Majesty, don't blame the ministers for talking too much, these days, the ministers have heard that Your Majesty has not slept every day, and the ministers have the courage to say that the empire can have today, thanks to Your Majesty's wise decision, if Your Majesty becomes ill because of overwork, this is the misfortune of the empire, the misfortune of thousands of families in the Ming Dynasty, and please take care of your majesty's dragon body!"
Yang Sichang's words are beautiful, but they come from the bottom of his heart, and Li Yan on the side also spoke about this matter with Yang Sichang.
And Zhu Jian, who was here, heard these words, but he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
Although the imperial bureaucracy was reformed, the central hub was the cabinet department responsible for implementing specific matters and evaluating the performance of officials; There is also a political affairs bureau to plan big and small matters to share the worries of the Son of Heaven, but for Zhu Jian, how can he do it?
Holding great power, if you want to do something, you must bow down to yourself, first, it is normal for people.
Second, within the empire, there is an undercurrent, and if there is a slight negligence, a series of achievements made in the reform over the years may be in vain!
What's more, there are still tigers and wolves around the empire today, and although the empire is temporarily resting, who dares to take care that this fire that subverts the imperial regime will not burn? !
More importantly, Zhu Jian wants to change the pattern that has not changed for thousands of years, and the amount of planning required, how can he stand by and enjoy peace?
Difficult! Difficult! Difficult!!!
This is the unforgettable memory of Zhu Jian's third year in the Ming Dynasty.
How difficult it is for man to conquer the sky! But if the husband stands in the world, how can he give it up easily!
Thinking of this, Zhu Jian sighed in his heart.
It's just that all this is in Zhu Jian's heart, as the emperor, he is the pillar of the entire empire, and he must not shed the slightest sorrow, only by smiling and looking at the situation can he bring a beautiful blueprint for tomorrow to the subjects of the empire!
"What the two Aiqing said, I have understood it, but there are a lot of things in the court, how can I not work for it? I want to follow suit, but I still need all my ministers to work with one heart and one mind! ”
Hearing what the emperor said, Yang Sichang and the others nodded yes, and they were busy saying that it should be like this.
"By the way, the two Aiqing, this is the excerpt just handed over by the cabinet, but the two Aiqing can be seen!"
Although it was handed over by the cabinet, because it was covered with the treasure seal of the Jing Navy, Yang Sichang, as the head of the cabinet, could not vote. The imperial bureaucracy stipulates that although this cabinet has the right to vote, it has no right to intervene in the excerpt of major border defense matters, so this excerpt from the Jing Navy is also the first time that Yang Sichang has seen it.
"Firearms are the most important weapons of the country, although Huanglong has gained something in this battle, but it is a great crime to lose so many firearms and fall into the hands of the Jinren. It's just that Your Majesty, the Yaozhou War here is imminent, and the war here has always been dominated by Huanglong, if it is ...... If. ”
Speaking of this, Yang Sichang is a little distracted.
Zhu Jian naturally saw all this, but he also understood that this Yang Sichang came from the family of the official eunuch since he was a child, and he had been in the officialdom for many years, so he naturally knew how to be tactful.
The words can't be full, Huang Long is Zhu Jian's hand and entrusted with important tasks, Yang Sichang understands this, Li Yan also understands, and Zhu Jian understands even more.
What's more, when the two of them were summoned here, he categorically would not temporarily change the general because of the firearms, not to mention that Dongjiang was handed over to Huanglong, but Zhu Jian was also relieved.
It's just that the state has national laws, and the family has family rules, and this matter of firearms is written into the imperial military regulations.
Those who violate the law will be held accountable!
The city gate is erected, the law of the Shang monarch can be implemented, and the weak Qin can be strong! Now, the empire is in ruins, and the laws and regulations must be investigated!
Therefore, Zhu Jian said with a smile.
"What Aiqing said, but I have thought about it a few times, and it is really taboo to change generals in battle, and I will not do it. It's just that within the empire, there are laws, but I can't break them without permission, if so, why should the laws exist? Therefore, I want to hear the opinions of the two Aiqing, but I can say it freely. ”
When the emperor's words have already been said to this point, the two of them are naturally not sloppy.
Li Yan, who had never spoken here, stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, the war is imminent, but it is not appropriate to temporarily change generals, Your Majesty is bent on revitalizing the law, but it is based on the great cause of our empire for thousands of years, so the minister thinks that it should be punished according to the law, but in consideration of the changes in the times, it can be temporarily recorded, and the decision will be made when the war is over!"
Regarding what Li Yan said, Zhu Jian nodded.
"Yang Aiqing, what Master Li said, I don't know what Aiqing thinks?"
When asked again by the emperor, Yang Sichang shook his head and said.
"What Lord Li said is very true, but the minister is worried that the war here is imminent, and if the punishment method is delayed, the minister is worried that the army's morale is unstable."
Regarding Yang Sichang's words at this moment, Zhu Jian was silent, but after a while, it was the Tao.
"What the two Aiqing said, I have already made up my mind in my heart, Lord Li, the Political Affairs Bureau immediately drafted a decree in my name and sent it to Dongjiang, telling Huang Long, telling him to lead the army well, and sending a message to the Imperial Party Affairs Bureau, first give Huang Long an intra-party warning, and fine Yu Lu for three months, after the war, we will see the after-effects!"
"Lord Yang, your cabinet department, together with the Imperial Military Committee, the Ministry of the Army, the Ministry of the Navy, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Supervision, and other ministries, jointly issued a notice to inform the handling of the Huanglong matter here, and warn the three armed forces that those who violate military regulations will not be tolerated!"
......
The news from Jingzhong quickly spread throughout the empire's large and small armies, especially the Liaodong Army, the Dongjiang Army, the Qin Wei Army, and the Dengzhou Haishi, which were extremely shocked!
Laws and regulations are enforced, orders and prohibitions are enforced, and rewards and punishments are orderly!
This was the first time that the Imperial Military Regulations were presented to the Imperial soldiers after the promulgation of the Imperial Military Regulations.
Officials are held accountable, the so-called law is unforgiving, and violations must be investigated!
And this is exactly what Zhu Jian is seeking step by step, 'rule of law' replaces 'rule of man', and everything seems to have just begun.
