"Back to Yin Gong, in fact, it's not a big deal, it's about General Qi, haven't you always asked us to pay attention to him, just got the news, just a few days ago, he had stepped down as the chief soldier of Jizhou and transferred to the ...... of Guangdong."

Chen Mo was stunned, his heart twitched, and he sighed secretly: "It's time to come, it's still here after all!" ”

Qi Jiguang is a complex person, the children of China in later generations, there are very few people who don't know his name, and most of those who know his name will also associate him with the Japanese Kou, give a thumbs up, and call a national hero, which has a lot of envy.

But as Chen Mo, who is proficient in history, he knows that Qi Jiguang's fate has not always been smooth, since Zhang Juzheng's death, his good luck seems to have run out, first transferred from Jizhou, the key place to rush, to Guangzhou, although he is still a general soldier, his status has plummeted. Then, those who opposed Zhang Juzheng grabbed his relationship with Zhang Juzheng and made a fuss, including Li Chengliang, the general soldier of Liaodong, all of whom were impeached. Emperor Wanli forgave Li Chengliang, but did not forgive him, and finally dismissed him and left him depressed.

This is a complicated person, military talents do not need to be talked about in detail, and his majesty is ready to meet him, all of which are refined, but his strength lies in the fact that he does not use these personnel talents as opportunistic and promotion capital, but only as a means to lead the army and protect the country.

He was well versed in the world and knew that if the generals of his dynasty wanted to make a difference, they could only make smooth changes under the conditions allowed by social morality, so that military science and military technology could play a role in real life. He was not rebellious, he accepted this reality with great poise, and did his best to get things done as well as possible through methods that some Daoists despised, and, like Zhang Juzheng, when possible. Make yourself properly enjoyed.

As for whether it is legal or not, Chen Mo can't judge, I'm afraid that in Qi Jiguang's eyes, it has nothing to do with the grand purpose.

Qi Jiguang's tragedy stems from his excessive intimacy with Zhang Juzheng, in fact, since the Ming Dynasty cabinet replaced the six ministries. Since power has become more and more important, all the commanders and generals of the army, if they want to make a difference, they will inevitably have close ties with a certain elder. He is well versed in politics, but he still can't get away from the reality of it.

After Zhang Juzheng's death in history, a minister reminded Wanli that Qi Jiguang was a fierce beast lying outside the palace gate, and he only listened to Zhang Juzheng's manipulation. Others are unable to control themselves. This is also the reason for the later accusation that Zhang Juzheng intended to rebel: Qing Ben is not guilty, but he is guilty - Zhang Juzheng and Qi Jiguang have no evidence of rebellion, but they have the ability to rebel.

The name of the minister is kept secret in the historical books, and there is no much mention of it.

But now Chen Mo knows that that person must be Zhang Whale. If you take Qi Jiguang, you can give Zhang Feng Group a heavy blow. This is in the interest of the two sheets.

It's a pity, although Chen Mo asked himself to be very influential to Zhu Yijun. It's just too far away for the whip to reach. He could only watch things go in the direction he least wanted to see.

Qi Jiguang's misfortune was due to the fact that the whole set of measures he had implemented in one town had effectively upset the balance that the civilian clique was trying to maintain. At the same time, the backer who had been supporting him collapsed again. That being the case, he must accept the price until he finds a supporter to rely on again.

If it is allowed to develop, four years later, Qi Jiguang will die in poverty and persecution. Among the few friends who did not abandon him. There is one who is Wang Daokun, who wrote an epitaph for him, when he wrote "Kouji No. 3, the star will fall", obviously did not know that when he wrote the book. Spain's huge fleet was ready to go for England.

The slackening of armaments will immediately affect the rise and fall of a country's national fortunes. And once Qi Jiguang died, it also marked that the ancient empire had lost the best opportunity to rearmament.

Thirty years later, the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty clashed with Nurhachi's troops, lacking the tactics and organizational discipline that Qi Jiguang painstakingly devouted, and the result was that they were outnumbered. In the future, the Eight Banners Army will rise as a new force between the white mountains and black waters, and it will eventually replace the current dynasty, which will become a matter of time and time.

And all this must be a problem that Chen Mo tried his best to change from the afterlife.

It's just that when he suddenly heard the bad news, he was at a loss. With his current ability, how can he change Qi Jiguang's ending?

It seems that Zhang Whale, who bewitched the emperor's heart, must be dealt with as soon as possible. And he must also find a way to increase his influence on Zhu Yijun.

Chen Mo was silent, the people next to him knew that he must be thinking about something particularly important, and waited quietly, no one dared to disturb him.

Finally, Caiyu found that the corners of Chen Mo's mouth curled violently, evoking a smile, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, and asked, "What did you think just now?" So out of mind? ”

Chen Mo ignored the presence of others, happily hugged Caiyu, and laughed: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed!" Let's go, if you have nothing to do, go with us to see Liu Fu's kid studying black oil, how is the research? ”

Caiyuqiao's face was crimson, and he glanced at him and said, "What's the matter, look at what makes you happy," and wanted to cover it up, and added: "I don't blame you for reading your face that you are too excited!" Out of a woman's intuition, she could feel Li Tianyou's special feelings for Chen Mo, so she was not afraid that Li Tianyou would know about her relationship with Chen Mo. As for Ruohan, she is still young and doesn't know her identity, so she is not worried. Only Huo Dong is too tactful, so she can't rest assured.

Li Tianyou's face darkened, but he came back to his senses, and he was quite curious why Chen Mo was so happy.

At this moment, Chen Mo also reacted a little carried away, so he subconsciously wanted to distance himself from Caiyu, and said, "I'm sorry, I'm out of shape, I'm out of shape...... However, the black oil stinks, and I'm afraid you won't be interested in it, so you two won't go. God, come with us to have a look. ”

Ruohan was a little unhappy, but after returning to Wang's sister-in-law's house, she saw that Caiyu took the willow full of sprouts cut by Wang's sister-in-law to feed the rabbits, and forgot what Chen Mo said about the oil, and followed upside down.

Chen Mo and Li Tianyou's horses stayed here, refused Wang's sister-in-law's retention, led the horses out, and went straight to the hot air balloon base.

After hearing Chen Mo say that oil may exist in large quantities in Hejian and other places, Feng Bao was keenly aware of its value, and naturally became more and more important to Liu Fu from the initial indifferent attitude. simply moved from the mausoleum to the base, and was idle every day, except for watching the soldiers take off the hot air balloon every drill, most of the rest of the time was spent in the room specially prepared for Liu Fu, watching him fiddle with the jar of black oil that Zhu Yihua had brought.

When Chen Mo arrived, Feng Bao happened to be there, and when he saw him, he said, "You came just in time, otherwise our family will send someone to call you." ”

"Oh, is there something wrong with grandfather looking for the child?" Chen Mo asked, looking at Liu Fu who was fiddling with bottles and cans as if no one was around.

Liu Fu was very focused, he didn't notice Chen Mo's arrival at all, and was shaking the small blower made by Lao Zhao to blow air on the stove. Above the stove, above the blue flames, an iron shelf held a sealed clay pot in place, and a thin bamboo pipe protruded from the mouth, bending to a sloping iron plate next to it. But seeing the white vapor steaming, the smell was pungent, and some transparent liquid was slowly dripping down the iron plate into a porcelain basin below.

Distilling oil?

Chen Mo pondered secretly, but heard Feng Bao say: "A few days ago, you went to the capital, and you didn't care about going to our shop, the weather has been good in the past two days, you can take the time to take a look!" (To be continued......)
