The affairs of Shaanxi as Zhang Chu expected, history showed a strong inertia, unwilling to be easily changed, Wang Er, who bought a large amount of weapons and food from Zhang Chu, could not change the fate, this spring with the official army in the battle Wang Er was captured, lost his life, which made Zhang Chu a little sad. Wang Jiayin lived up to Zhang Chu's expectations, and mixed well in Huanglong Mountain, attracting most of the officials and soldiers.

Zhang Chu's instructions were transmitted to the distant south of the Yangtze River, and all kinds of materials were also transported with the caravan, Yang Liu and Zhou Jialin sent back the information, Zhou Jialin's textile factory was established, and the personnel sent to Macao to hire ships and purchase materials have set off, and the shipyard has also been successfully acquired, and is stepping up the production of small fortune boats, and Yang Liu has landed on Liuheng Island, cleaned up the island, blocked the news to the outside world, recruited personnel from the fishermen who could not survive, and the team training is underway.

Guo Xiyuan's work has a major breakthrough, Zhang Chu ordered his pigeon to fly back from Jiangnan, although most of the loss in the middle, but it also confirmed that this method of communication is feasible, more adult pigeons raised in Zhongyang were sent to Jiangnan, and Jiangnan raised pigeons were sent back to Zhongyang, the special pigeon department of the Bureau of Statistics began to operate, the scale of breeding continues to expand, and excellent varieties are being selected and bred.

In the communication enabled password, the use of complex coding is certainly impossible, for the sake of simplicity, Zhang Chu used the "Da Ming Law" and Arabic numerals combined to make a password, the first number represents the number of pages, every two numbers are the number of lines, and the third number represents the first few words. The Law of the Ming Dynasty was the most widely distributed book in the Ming Dynasty, and reading it without it would arouse suspicion. Some important information can be transmitted, and there are not many people who understand Arabic numerals, so you just need to change the password and change the book.

In the blink of an eye, in October, it was time for Huang Taiji to make a move, and the tax revenue in the area controlled by the security army came up. Under the severe crackdown of the security forces, the landlords have reduced their rents, and the peasants have more grain in their hands, and more peasant households have stored grain, and they have more confidence in surviving this winter. Zhang Chu ordered the security forces to store as much food as possible and prepare for the aggravation of the disaster.

The materials needed for the expedition were also prepared, and they could set off just waiting for Zhang Chu's order.

Zhu Shiji took He Jin to find Zhang Chu at this time.

Zhang Chu wondered how these two busy people had time to come to him, so they came together.

After entering the house, Zhu Shiji did not politely open his mouth and went straight to the point. "The security forces need a spiritual pillar after you leave."

Zhang Chu wondered how they thought of this question and asked, "Why?" ”

"The marshal should know what it means to be a big tail, and He Jin and I will be in charge of civil affairs and military affairs after you leave. We are all in power, and you can rest assured of our loyalty to the commander, but there will definitely be people who use this to make a fuss, in order to coordinate with each other for the people who stay behind, and at the same time for the good of the two of us, we need a person who can dominate the overall situation above us, and this person can't take all the power of the commander yet. That's why I said to have a spiritual leader. Zhu Shiji said what he had been thinking about for many days.

"That's a problem." Zhu Shiji's question stumped Zhang Chu all of a sudden. Zhu Xiucai's words are right, there must be checks and balances if there is power, this has nothing to do with personal quality, and no one has a choice when the yellow robe is added. Taking precautions from the system in advance is a kind of protection for Zhu Shiji and them. But what kind of person has prestige and does not hold real power?

"It would be nice if the handsome had a daughter-in-law, and he would definitely be able to become the pillar that Xiucai said." Ho Kim interjected from the side.

One sentence reminded Zhang Chu that this is the Ming Dynasty, this is a feudal society, and people can't get rid of the concept of the world, and everyone is loyal to the world with one family and one surname. If you have a wife, you can be your own representative.

Some subordinates have expressed the hope that Zhang Chu will marry a wife as soon as possible and give birth to a son as soon as possible, so that the cause of the security army will have a reliable inheritance.

"That's a good idea." Zhu Shiji expressed his approval of this method.

"I have to have a daughter-in-law." Zhang Chu thought silently in his heart. But where am I going to find my daughter-in-law, Yue Yue's figure flashed in Zhang Chu's mind.

"The bank is in charge of the economic lifeblood of the security army, of course, this is the private matter of the marshal, and in the end, it is up to the marshal to decide." Obviously, Zhu Shiji is also thinking about this problem. After much hesitation, he still said it.

"Okay, I see what you mean, I'll think about it seriously." He had to solve his own affairs, and Zhang Chu decided to think about it himself.

Sent away the two Zhang Chu alone in the house meditating, in the blink of an eye came to this world for more than two years, during which after all kinds of ups and downs, the original simple otaku has gradually drifted away in this world, Zhang Chu's every move is no longer a private problem, since everyone has been brought on this road, we have to work hard to go on.

He is about to lead his troops north to fight. I don't know if this trip is a thousand miles, not a day or two to return to Zhongyang, the remaining security forces are not under their control, how to control the whole situation is a problem that must be solved.

There is no problem with the loyalty of Zhu Xiucai and others, but they are only managing the affairs of a certain party, but they are not the leader of the entire security army, and they cannot make him a leader, which has nothing to do with human quality, but with human nature. The security forces must be placed under the absolute leadership of Zhang Chu, and a strong leadership is the most basic condition for a strong group. Others can only exercise power on behalf of Zhang Chu, and must find a representative of Zhang Chu, who will become the spiritual leader of the security army when Zhang Chu is away.

But this matter could not be discussed with others, and a voice kept echoing in Zhang Chu's head: "I have to have a daughter-in-law." ”

What Zhang Chu needs is not a strong person, if Zhang Chu has a son, even if he is young, he can become the object of the security army's support, far from quenching the thirst of the near water, now it is definitely impossible to have a son, retreat to the second, Zhang Chu needs a daughter-in-law, Zhang Chu's daughter-in-law is unanimously supported by everyone, it is not controversial. When Zhang Chu is not in Zhongyang, he can become the spiritual leader of the security army.

Thinking of his daughter-in-law Zhang Chu, he naturally thought of Yue Yue, and he was going to work hard in this direction when he took Yue Yue over, but Zhang Chu's modern feelings made him always think that he wanted to talk about a vigorous love, and the two would be happy and enter the palace of marriage. So after he brought Yue Yue over, he treated her like a modern girlfriend, taking care of her and giving her space to display her talents. Yue Yue is also a capable woman, who has done the work of the bank well and has become Zhang Chu's right-hand man. Zhang Chu realized at this time that he had used too much force, either to remove Yue Yue from the position of bank president, or this daughter-in-law could only choose someone else, and Zhang Chu's daughter-in-law could only be a symbol and could not have absolute real power.

Zhang Chu's flower heart provides him with an alternative, and Li Zhongxiao's daughter Li Mei can also be one of the candidates for this position.
