Chapter 264: Jingshi is a sensation
(12 points)
Even if the gentry hates him again, it will not affect him to compete for the storage position, but the old fourteenth suddenly pulled the clan and royal family, princes, ministers, officials and scholars in, but Yinzhen was very frightened, if he offended all these people in one go, even if Kangxi supported him, he would end up ruined, and the storage position was even more delusional
Listening to what Yinzhen said, Yinzhen couldn't help but feel angry, this stall into the mu is his twists and turns, if Kangxi really adopted the advice of the old fourteenth, even if he is not responsible for the implementation of this law, he will also offend everyone, and he can't explain it all over the capital, all the land is taxed according to the rules is the idea of the old fourteen, this black pot is really wronged.
Don't allow Yinzhen to think too much, Kangxi has already spoken: "Spreading the ding into the mu is a matter of national policy, we must be cautious and cautious, put it aside for a while, let the minister of the study discuss it, and then publish it in the Beijing newspaper to see the reaction." As he spoke, he glanced at Yinzhen and said, "Yinzhen kneel down first." ”
As soon as he heard Kangxi say that he would put the stall into the mu and publish it in the Beijing News to see the reaction, Yinzhen secretly screamed in his heart that it was not good, the Beijing News was in charge of the old fourteenth, and it was published in the original text, he was not stunned, but if the old fourteenth moved his hands and feet, he would be wronged. But Kangxi called Knean An, even if he didn't want to, he had to swallow it in his stomach, got up and knelt down, and bowed out.
Exiting the hall, Yinzhen couldn't help but feel annoyed, he had done a great job, but he was messed up by the old fourteen, but now it has become a disaster, this old fourteen is really a good means, how should this matter end? Yin Zhen couldn't help but feel confused for a while.
As soon as Yinzhen withdrew, Yinzhen reported in a deep voice: "Huang Ama, the navy has taken advantage of the victory to attack Manila, and the 6,000 green battalions of Liangguang, Fujian and Zhejiang have followed south on the Fujian naval warship. ”
Kangxi is also well versed in military affairs, and naturally understands the reason that the soldiers are noble and fast, and the reason for pursuing the victory is that once the Spanish fleet is destroyed, Manila is only a few thousand, he is not too worried about the victory or defeat, and he nodded slightly when he heard the words, and said: "The order of the Fujian Navy Division, I will reissue it with a secret decree." What are your plans to capture the entire Spanish fleet this time? ”
"Back to the Emperor Ama." Yinzhen bowed and said: "The Beijing division is the foundation of the world, but it is only two hundred and fifty miles away from the port of Tianjin, although the Tianjin Wei has a naval division to garrison, but the strength is weak, and the son wants to replace the captured Spanish fleet artillery with a new one, and then transfer it to the Tianjin naval division to defend the Beijing division." ”
Allocated to Tianjin Water Division? This was unexpected by Kangxi, after a little thought, he vaguely guessed Yinzhen's thoughts, the old fourteen was worried that the navy was too powerful, causing him to worry, and wanted to use this method to reassure himself, thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, the old fourteen is not a little stronger than the prince Yinren.
At present, although the navy is beginning to have combat power, but the scale of the warship is far inferior, this Spanish fleet is tantamount to timely rain for the navy, why did the old fourteen not hesitate to allocate it to the Tianjin Naval Division, this is not like his style, glanced at Yinzhen, Kangxi couldn't help but secretly wonder, does the old fourteen have other plans? After pondering for a long time, he said, "Don't hide it, tell your thoughts." ”
"If you are careful, you will not escape the holy lesson." Yinzhen replied with a smile: "Huang Ama, the defense of the Beijing division is indeed the primary problem, the sea is vast, if the Western fleet is directly penetrated into Tianjin from the sea, it is indeed difficult to resist with Tianjin's defense force, Erchen envisions that the Qing Dynasty must establish a fleet in the north to defend the Beijing division."
Secondly, this fleet can be responsible for fighting piracy on weekdays, maintaining the safety of the routes in the East China Sea, the Yellow Sea, and the Bohai Sea, and laying the foundation for the future Cao Yun to change to sea transportation, Cao Yun consumes too much money and grain, and the Grand Canal is too crowded, and sea transportation is the best solution. Again, in the future, the eastward expedition to Japan and the northward march to Tsarist Russia will also fall on this fleet, and the sons are now just taking precautions. ”
Hearing Yinzhen's long-term thinking, Kangxi couldn't help but sigh secretly, if the long-term vision, the overall planning, no one in the world can be right, thinking of this, can also solve the problem of Caoyun by the way, Kangxi is also very pleased, the world is peaceful, Jingshi is also prosperous, the population is soaring, bringing great pressure to Caoyun.
It is unimaginable that the imperial court spends a huge amount of manpower, material and financial resources on Cao Yun every year, and the people are also deeply affected by Cao Yun.
After a slight groan, Kangxi nodded and said, "Since this is the case, I will allow you to invite." After a pause, he continued: "In the first battle of the Wanshan Islands, the Guangdong Navy Division was no longer usable, and I intend to merge it into the navy, and all the officials have been demoted by five ranks and sent to the navy to serve, how about it?" ”
Yinzhen was stunned when he heard this, didn't those soldiers enter the navy and bring the atmosphere of the navy to ruin? However, the place in Guangzhou is really good, and it is much more convenient to go to the South Seas than Shanghai, so after a little thought, he said in a low voice: "Back to the emperor Ama, Guangzhou has a superior geographical location, and coastal defense is also very important. ”
Seeing that Yinzhen did not object, Kangxi continued: "After this battle, I know that the naval division of the imperial court is no longer of great use, but at present, the navy is just beginning, and it is not appropriate to make drastic rectifications. ”
"Huang Ama is far-reaching, and this matter should not be rushed." Yinzhen didn't expect Kangxi to have such courage, as soon as he found that the sailor was not good, he wanted to remove, he carefully considered it and replied: "Although the navy must be rapidly expanded at present, it cannot be too fast, otherwise it will affect the combat strength of the navy, and they must be strictly trained and assessed, and only those who pass can enter the navy. ”
"It's better to have a shortage than an abundance, to put it well, the officers and men of the Navy Division are used to slacking off, so they should train hard." Kangxi nodded appreciatively, and said with a smile: "This naval victory, the matter of building the army, can not be delayed any longer, do you have a detailed charter?" For meritorious soldiers, you should also submit the list as soon as possible. ”
Speaking of this, Kangxi couldn't help frowning, and the other naval officers and soldiers were easy to say, how this old fourteenth should be rewarded, but he really had to think about it.
As for the structure of the navy, Yinzhen has long considered it, the current situation is unclear, or low-key, and immediately replied: "The navy is currently in its infancy, and the ministers secretly think that it is okay to temporarily follow the establishment of the naval division, and when the fleet is completed, it will depend on the situation." The list of naval rewards will be drawn up when the retainers go back. ”
Kangxi nodded and said, "It's so good, you've been on the road for so many days, and you're tired, kneel down, and come back tomorrow to hand over the sign." ”
As soon as Yinzhen came out of Xihua Gate, the fifteenth elder brother Yinzhen greeted him with a smile, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the fourteenth brother, the victory of the naval flag and the victory of the fourteenth brother to the fourteenth brother, the defeat of the Spanish fleet"
"You're well-informed, you know so quickly?" Yinzhen said with a smile.
Yin Yu smiled happily: "With such a big victory, the news has already come out, not only Sijiu City." I'm afraid that the whole city of Beijing will know about it. As he spoke, he turned around and waved his hand, let his sedan chair come over, turned around and smiled: "Brother Fourteen has been on horseback for a day, let's take the sedan chair back to the house." ”
"The fifteenth brother is so considerate, I won't be hypocritical." Yinzhen smiled and got into the sedan chair.
The news that the Fourteenth Master returned to Beijing and won a great victory in the Qing Navy, captured the entire Spanish fleet, captured more than 9,000 people, and suffered only 69 casualties in less than an hour, spread throughout the entire city of Beijing like the wind. ..., the whole capital was suddenly sensational, the capital not only had many idlers, but also the families of the navy, the navy was victorious, and achieved such a brilliant record, they were more excited and proud, after getting the exact news, the inner city sounded firecrackers one after another, and soon, the firecrackers of the entire capital sounded into a piece, and its lively atmosphere was comparable to the New Year.
All kinds of teahouses, restaurants, and guild halls in the capital, the streets and alleys are enthusiastically discussing the naval victory of the Fourteenth Master, and no one knows what the truth is.
A group of clan relatives have personally rushed to the prince's mansion to congratulate, those who will sell the shares of the ocean trade fleet of the royal family on the rush to jump straight feet, a few days earlier, still in praise of Yinzhen to do things kindly, now immediately changed his words and scolded Yinzhen insidious, robbed by fire, scolded and scolded, one by one is still in a hurry to ride a horse and sedan chair to the 'four Heng' head office, where it was learned that the share transfer deed has been transferred to the prince's mansion, one by one rushed to the prince's mansion.
The ministers of the 14th Party were naturally no exception, and they were so happy, how could they not come to the door to celebrate, and they all rushed to the palace of Prince Sui.
The fifth elder brother Yinqi, the seventh elder brother Yinyou, and the twelfth elder brother Yinyi, the three neutral princes, heard the news and rushed to the prince's mansion to join in the fun.
After hearing the news, the ninth elder brother Yinyu and the tenth elder brother Yinyu hurried to the Lianjun Palace.
After hearing this, Eighth Elder Brother Yinxi couldn't help but sigh with emotion, although he had expected that it was not a simple impulse for the old fourteenth to lead the navy to meet the Spanish fleet, but he also did not expect that the old fourteenth would achieve such a brilliant record
After a little hesitation, Yin Xi asked, "Is the specific battle situation clear?" ”
Ninth Elder Brother Yinyu shook his head and said, "It's not clear yet, but there should be news soon." ”
At this critical moment of competing for the crown, the old fourteenth actually won such an incredible victory, Yinxi couldn't help but sigh secretly, and groaned slightly, before he said: "I am filial piety, and it is inconvenient to go to celebrate, ninth brother, tenth brother, you two will go to the fourteenth brother's mansion to take me to congratulate." ”……,
