Chapter 361: Retire after success
"Outside the border is a treasure land, the land is fertile, and the products are abundant. www.biquge.info For hundreds of years, Dajin has listed this place as a forbidden place, and has not let go of immigrants for a long time, and the flag people themselves have not done anything to produce. Over the years, the land is vast and sparsely populated, resulting in a large number of wild beasts. According to the locals, the roe deer scooped the fish, and the pheasant flew into the rice pot. There are many people in the interior and few places, but here it is the other way around. So I had an idea to let them adjust with each other and transport the people of the interior to Kanto. Of course, this is a bitter cold place, and if you simply rely on your own empty-handed, it is quite dangerous for ordinary people. Now with the support of the governor Xu Juren, the government arranges scheduling, raises materials, and distributes farm tools to the immigrants to grow grain, and the Kwantung immigrants have a way to live. ”
Zhao Guanhou introduced his experience outside the border during this time. Tiele Fusang is eyeing the outside of the Guan, coveting this treasure land, and Dajin's national strength is weak and unable to defend the land is certainly one thing, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and the inability to defend it is also an important reason. If the population is developed, the land can naturally be developed and constructed. Whether it is to build agriculture or factories, it is inseparable from people to build railways. If there is a war in the future, the recruitment of troops will naturally be the larger the population, the easier it will be to do it.
The plan of Huang Tiele of the Tiele people was to move the people of his country outside the Guan, cooperate with the army, reclaim by force, and gradually encroach on the territory of Liaodong. The methods of the Fuso people are not much different from those of the Tiele people. Only this time the two countries went to war, although the Fuso people were victorious, but the casualties were huge, and their vitality was already damaged, and in a short period of time, it was impossible to engage in armed immigration on a large scale and rely on violent reclamation to occupy the land outside the Guan.
But since they won the victory in the war in Liaodong, they will definitely build roads and mine outside the customs in the future, which is also inseparable from manpower, and they are immigrants with a lot of gold, and the Fuso people are powerless to oppose it.
Shandong's economy was quite impressive, attracting a large number of immigrants to come, and Zhao Guanhou was ready to recruit some of these people, organized by the government, to reclaim the fields in the eastern part of the country. He had already discussed this matter with Xu Juren, who had no disagreement on this matter and was willing to support it as much as he could. Another force that Zhao Guanhou is looking for is Dong Jun.
Just like Da Shengkui's strategy in the northwest, Siheng has also spread out outside the pass. When Zhao Guanhou led his subordinates to fight guerrillas outside the Guan, he looted Daosheng banks in various places, causing Daosheng to suffer heavy losses. As a purely local bank, Siheng is more popular than foreigners' banks for the grassroots people. In addition, the cooperation with Zhengjin Bank has carried out the business quite smoothly.
In addition to the money industry, Siheng opened warehouses and shops outside the customs. It is quite suitable for them to purchase leather goods, ginseng and other special products outside the customs area, and to transport the goods inside the customs to be sold outside the customs customs, and they should serve as the messengers of this immigrant. And because of this, being able to establish a relationship with the yamen is also very beneficial to the future of Siheng.
Of course, there is a reason why there is no outsider here. The business outside the customs is quite important, and the business volume is also large, Dong Jun, as the leader, has to sit outside the customs for a long time, and only after it is stable can he find a replacement. This time, Siheng in Shandong has become Aunt Jin again, and without guards around her, she and Zhao Guanhou can be able to cover the night openly and secretly cross Chen Cang.
If Jensen's bank intervenes in it, it can occupy a market outside the customs, and in the future, it will not be difficult to occupy it in a big way and grab its own market share. She thought for a moment, "I will try my best to help Governor Xu take care of immigration, but I only need this part of the electricity, and I will not enter other markets for the time being." This is an agreement between me and the Jeongjin Bank, and you must know that this time, the economy of Fuso has reached an extremely dangerous point for the sake of the war outside the Kansai. If the war continues, Fuso's finances are likely to go bankrupt. After the end of the war, they could not account for it at home if they could not obtain benefits. So, they sent an envoy and negotiated with me. In return, they will offer me some concessions. ”
"For example?"
"For example, the arms that Fuso stockpiled for this war. Your troops can be self-sufficient in arms now, but in the future, the more the better. Fusang was willing to dispose of a batch of weapons and ammunition at a low price, and I signed a contract with Fuso to transport this part of the ordnance to Shandong. The longer you stay here, the more people will hate you. Even your brother-in-law wouldn't want you to stay here for long. My dear, you know the truth of accepting it when you see it, it's time to leave. ”
"I understand baby, if I stay here, others will not be able to come. If I were to become governor here, I don't know how many people would be red-eyed. But they really thought wrong, my family is in Shandong, and I am the governor here. I want to take your boat back, and as for the troops, go slowly. ”
"Don't worry, my dear, I've already reserved a position for you, and before you go back, you should prepare your gifts. Your Queen Mother's birthday is coming soon, and you can't go to her birthday empty-handed. Your country is brewing new changes, and only by currying favor with the Queen Mother can you reap the benefits from it. And I'm ...... It can also rely on you to go further. The two of us will be the perfect partner in every way. ”
Zhang Yuting and Dong Jun all rushed to see them off. With Zhang Yuting, the head of the local snake, Dong Jun and the future Huabi can ensure smooth operation outside the customs and will not be troubled. In turn, Zhang Yuting also needed the financial support of these two people, and Jensen helped him prepare a batch of guns and ammunition, as well as more than ten cannons. Zhao Guanhou also made a request to Zhang Yuting, the forest outside the pass is dense, and when the war subsides, ask Zhang Yuting to organize manpower to cut down large trees and transport them to Shandong, and Shandong will buy it at a high price.
The original timber merchant outside the Guanwai had almost escaped because of the war, so things were extremely easy to handle, Zhang Yuting nodded and promised. Not only wood, including horses, he will also try to help find a way to order, in Shandong, now outside the customs, has become a material supply base in Shandong, the future of good horses, can be regarded as a place.
When Zhao Guanhou's ship went ashore at Jinmen, it was already the end of September, and after getting off the ship, he first arranged for Fengxi to stay in the hotel, and then went straight to the Yamen of the governor of Zhili. He is a member of Yuan Weiting, and even if he celebrates his birthday at this time, he has to worship the Lord first. Among the gifts, the first one is a gift to Yuan Weiting, and the other is a gift to Shen Jinying.
When Tsumen and he left, there was another change, and the city was paved with tram tracks, and trams passed back and forth. The eyes of the people looking at this thing were already very peaceful, and there was no strange look in the slightest, and it seemed that they had accepted this metal monster. On both sides of the road, there are more and more poles, and patrol officers in standard well uniforms patrol back and forth, with stiff smiles on their faces. Whether willing or unwilling, smiling law enforcement has become a discipline of the new police investigation, and no one dares to violate it.
Yuan Weiting is not young, and he has to deal with stunners like Shen Jinying, he can't do without ginseng and deer antler nourishment every day, and Zhao Guanhou comes back from outside the customs, so such things are indispensable. A husky ante, more than a dozen wild mountain ginseng plus a few pairs of deer antler velvets, and even deer fetus, bear paws and other supplements are all gifts for Yuan Weiting. What was given to Shen Jinying was 20 good East Pearls.
During the period when he moved to fight outside the Guan, there had been changes in the court, Wang Wenzhao was old and weak, and he was incompetent, so he returned to his hometown. In addition to King Qing's pivot in the imperial court, the banner man Shixu was used as a military aircraft, and Zhang Xiangtao was added to the cabinet, forming a situation of four military planes: King Qing, Shixu, Zhang Xiangtao, and Zhai Hongji. Later, it was promoted by King Qing, and Yuan Weiting, as the governor of Zhili, also entered the dynasty as a military aircraft, and still served as the governor of Zhili. With Zhili as the mainstay, supplemented by the court, he can still see him at the governor's yamen.
When the two met, they congratulated them first. Yuan Weiting's white body was never green, and he was able to enter the cabinet on duty, or it can be said that he has reached the top of the people, and there is no other hope. Drinking water and thinking about the source, today's success is all the credit of Zhao Guanhou who robbed Shandong that day, and this time he went outside the customs to earn enough face for the imperial court.
In the bright face, he eliminated the Rouran rebels who had been destroying the Rouran Reclamation and harassing the Guanwai, and cut off the leaders of the bandits. Secretly, it was bought from the Fusang people, and it also made the Fusang people see that Dajin should not be insulted, and their attitude was also eased a lot.
In this battle, Fusang Tiele will lose both, and in the future, the policy will inevitably be eased, and it will be of great benefit to the imperial court to take power outside the customs. Yuan Weiting strongly advocated the joint Fusang to resist Tiele, this gamble was a great success, and with the performance of the army, when negotiating with the Fusang people, there were more bargaining chips, and the negotiations were much easier to handle.
Of course, this is the credit of the former army, but the achievements of the new army cannot erase the credit of Yuan Weiting's training, and Zhao Guanhou is the person he brought out, and he must be able to obtain this merit. This credit alone made him have a lot of face in the military aircraft. Therefore, when the two met, his face was also full of joy
"Everyone, don't be so polite, congratulations should be done, but not only you congratulate me, I also want to congratulate you. Cheng Yue gave birth to a daughter for you, the mother and daughter are safe, not as dangerous as the time of Shigege, you have added another daughter, congratulations. This time, you are outside the gate, and you have done a good job, that is, the people who helped Sang saw me, and now you have to be polite. The imperial court opened a ban on newspapers, and the Ge Ming Party in the south wrote articles in the newspapers, talking about national integrity and national dignity. It would be a shame to say that we are engaged in external neutrality. But what is national dignity? Get the benefits, so that foreigners don't dare to underestimate us, this is the dignity of the country, who dares to say no. When I come back this time, I want to protect your future...... Then again, with Qingdi in the court, he will be able to keep your official position. ”
"Qingdi is where he comes to protect, and his brother-in-law's cultivation is the main reason. Without my brother-in-law, I wouldn't be where I am today. The younger brother is young, he is confused, he causes trouble outside the customs, Hai Weng doesn't know how to be angry with me, and he has to have Brother-in-law Lao to say something good for me. ”
"There's no hindrance, Fifth Brother Bu is a scholar, and he likes to be brainless when he encounters problems, don't be serious with him. If there is any conflict between the two of you, I will mediate it, and it will be fine. Don't be busy going home this time, come with me to Beijing to pay homage to Lafayette, and there will be a reward for the saint. Birthday gift, you've already prepared it, you shouldn't need my advice. What I want to tell you is that in addition to Qingdi, Beifu, remember to prepare a single copy, you and Sister Fu have some old friends, and this relationship must be maintained. ”
The Beifu he said is the Alcohol Palace, and the Alcohol King is the fifth brother of the emperor, and he has a brotherly relationship with Emperor Tianyou, and he has no good impression of Yuan Weiting. The two of them have a clan and a minister, and they have never had any contacts, and this time they specifically mentioned Beifu, and there must be a reason for coming.
Zhao Guanhou said: "Brother-in-law, rest assured, the birthday gifts are naturally good, and they are all local products outside the Guan. There are mink, ginseng, deer antler, and dongzhu...... These things have not been replenished in the palace since the Tiele people occupied the pass. This time, it is expensive, and secondly, it also means that the outside of the border will return to the arms of my big gold, and the saints will be happy. You specifically mentioned Beifu, what is there any movement over there? ”
Yuan Weiting smiled and said: "Sister Fu is the same as Shigege, there is movement in her stomach, and she has just added a boy to King Alcohol." ”
Zhao Guanhou nodded, "This man...... Could it be that Lafayette wants to set up a big brother again? ”
"This child is so suitable, one is the right age, and the other is the right identity. The fifth master and the emperor are brothers, and his son has two rooms, which is much more suitable than the eldest brother. Long Live Lord's dragon body is not safe, and he has asked the people for medical treatment several times, and I want to see that no matter what Long Live is in this body, the future country must be the alcohol king's mansion to sit. At that time, Sister Fu is the biological mother, and this relationship is not sewn up now, when will it be waiting? ”
Yuan Weiting smiled again: "I'll tell you the bottom, taking advantage of the Queen Mother's birthday this time, I am going to make a break and set up a training office in Zhili." If we want Dajin to be strong, we must have strong soldiers. This time, Fusang Tiele, the two countries have enmity, but they are at war on our land, in the final analysis, our soldiers are weak. If I have strong soldiers at hand, who would dare to be so presumptuous? At present, there are many soldiers raised in the country, but there are not many who help. If there are police officers outside the Guan, you have to rush from Shandong to Guanwai, because apart from you, there will be no reliable teams in the whole country. The big guy has already passed through the wind and will support us, and as soon as this training place is established, the entire Dajin army will move. ”
Zhao Guanhou knew that this training office was not comparable to the previous training of the new army. The training of the new army is nothing more than the recruitment of brave soldiers from one city to one province, and the training department is the highest military organ of a national nature, and the armed forces of the whole country are re-selected and eliminated and then reorganized.
Yuan Weiting was originally just an envoy, but now the official Fu is like fire, and his ambitions are also big, and he actually wants to surpass Zhang Tong, the predecessor of Beiyang, and be the generalissimo of the world. Among them, whether he was influenced by Napoleon's biography, only he knows.
Zhao Guanhou couldn't pour cold water on him, only listened attentively, Yuan Weiting said: "The military system of the new army is different from the old army, and the first thing is to be the same." The military system is the same, the military salary is the same, the equipment is the same, and the military law is the same. Orders are forbidden, upward and downward effects, can no longer be as separate as in the past, you sing my songs, I recite my scriptures. The divisions of a country are not connected with each other, and even the capital cannot mobilize troops from other provinces, resulting in local governors acting independently and holding troops to self-respect, which is absolutely impossible.
