[Today's second update]

On the morning of the second day of the wedding, Yan Siyu got up early in the morning, went to Hai Lanzhu's room, and tossed Deng Haonan.

However, Yan Siyu's real purpose is to target Hai Lanzhu. No, Hai Lanzhu, who tasted the forbidden fruit for the first time, was dragged by Yan Siyu to give the old lady tea and say goodbye.

"Roar! Why is the Lanzhu girl walking so slowly! ”

Yan Siyu remembered the embarrassment when Hai Lanzhu asked her like this, this time she finally had a plan for revenge, and it was Hai Lanzhu's turn to be embarrassed.

Sure enough, Hai Lanzhu heard Yan Siyu's ridicule and knew what she was worthy, and her face was suddenly flushed, like a ripe red apple.

"Sister Siyu, how can you do this!"

Hai Lanzhu immediately protested, Yan Siyu ignored her and continued to laugh, and kept ** her, Hai Lanzhu wanted to chase and fight, but gave up because of her inflexible legs.

Soon, Tan Wanqing also ran over to join in the fun, and the two attacked back and forth, making Hai Lanzhu tired of dealing with shame and indignation.

Deng Haonan really watched it from behind, and saw that Hai Lanzhu was in a hurry, so he went up to help.

"Come, baby, kiss your husband and I'll help you out of the siege!"

Hai Lanzhu couldn't care about anything else, and immediately gave Deng Haonan a fragrant kiss, and shouted shamefully: "Husband, save me!" ”

Deng Haonan shouted obediently, hurriedly picked her up, and ran quickly to the hall. The old lady got up very early and stayed in the hall waiting for her daughter-in-law to serve tea for a while. The maid at the door saw Deng Haonan coming with the bride in her arms, and hurriedly led him in and offered him a tea bowl.

Here, Tan Wanqing and Yan Siyu chased for a while and then stopped, shouting Deng Haonan's partiality from a distance, which made Deng Haonan's head suddenly grow several times.

On the first day of the newlywed Yan'er, Hai Lanzhu couldn't avoid the ridicule and jokes of Deng Haonan's other women, but Hai Lanzhu had a cheerful personality, and soon took their jokes as a deaf ear.

Deng Haonan accompanied them to breakfast, when Hai Lanzhu ate with them in the past, she was always a little embarrassed, but now she is Deng Haonan's woman, after she got her wish, the embarrassment disappeared suddenly, and was replaced by the joy of a large family.

In the afternoon, the British envoy, Duke Dudley Diggs, bid farewell to Deng Haonan.

Deng Haonan persuaded him to stay for a while and experience the customs of the Ming Empire. But the Duke of Dudley-Diggs thanked him, saying that he had to rush back to England as much as possible to tell King Charles I of England about the alliance between the two countries, and he was worried that the night would be long and dreamy, and Charles I would probably not be able to stand the dictates of Parliament.

Deng Haonan smiled secretly in his heart, calculating the time, Charles I will dissolve parliament in a few months. The English Civil War was about to break out. The Duke of Dudley-Diggs had no time to rush back to London, let alone prevent the English Civil War.

However, Deng Haonan will take it to the end and strongly assure Duke Dudley-Diggs that the Ming Empire will be on the side of King Charles I of England, and he can consider sending troops to help if necessary.

Duke Dudley-Diggs naturally did not believe that Deng Haonan was willing to send troops around the world to Europe to help the British king, nor did he believe that Charles I needed Deng Haonan's help, let alone that there would be an irreversible war in Britain.

Duke Dudley-Diggs thanked Deng Haonan for his promise, and thanked Deng Haonan on behalf of King Charles I, he thought he didn't need help, but he knew that it was Deng Haonan's kindness, so he said that he would ask Deng Haonan to help if necessary.

In this regard, Deng Haonan has no objection, he hopes to help King Charles I of England, so that the British bourgeoisie will not be easy to control Britain, and let the British Civil War be fought for a longer time, which is what Deng Haonan is looking forward to.

The future empire on which the sun never sets must be dragged down, this is what Deng Haonan thinks in his heart, and he will do the same.

In addition to bringing the sword of Charles I and the letter of authorisation, the Duke of Dudley-Diggs also brought some British things to Deng Haonan. Similarly, Deng Haonan could not let the family go back empty-handed, and ordered someone to take some silk and satin produced by Suzhou and Hangzhou weaving, as well as high-quality porcelain produced by the Royal Imperial Ware Factory to send to the British king. Of course, Deng Haonan must take care of Duke Dudley-Diggs, after all, Britain is far away, and Duke Dudley-Diggs can't stop and explain it at all, so Deng Haonan gave Duke Dudley-Diggs two two-meter-high cloisonné. This thing was shipped back to Europe worth millions, which really made the Duke Dudley Diggs happy, and hurriedly thanked Deng Haonan, and said that he would definitely say a lot of good words to the British king and Parliament.

Duke Dudley-Diggs's mission of more than 50 people, each of whom got a lot of gifts, Deng Haonan put them all happy, mainly to deceive the British in the future, at the same time Deng Haonan sent a lot of skilled workers in the British Royal Shipyard to learn to build battleships and other advanced technology, can not blindly rely on the British East India Company to help take care, Deng Haonan does not like to hang from a tree, everything must be prepared with at least two hands.

After sending off the British mission, Deng Haonan put his mind back to the north.

Three days later, Zhaisang gathered representatives of various Mongolian ministries and watched the jade seal of the country in the Liao Palace.

At the beginning, the Chechen Khan had always opposed the Mongol Khan of Zhaisangdang, saying that whoever found the jade seal of the country was the Mongol Khan, and only the Mongol Khan could announce whether to surrender Deng Haonan.

Today, the jade seal of the country is the dowry given by Hai Lanzhu to Deng Haonan, which is indirectly equivalent to Zhai Sang's appointment as the Great Khan of Mongolia. Zhai Sang advocated surrendering to the Ming Dynasty and surrendering Deng Haonan, so the Chechen Khan was speechless to oppose it.

Although the other Mongol Great Khans were disappointed that they did not get the jade seal, in their eyes, whoever got the jade seal of the country since ancient times won the world. Now that the jade seal of the country is in the hands of the King of Liao, with Deng Haonan's strength today, the destiny of heaven is returned, and everyone is convinced.

I have to say that if Deng Haonan hadn't completely annihilated the Manchu and Mongolian coalition forces and completely defeated the Mongols, there might not have been today's results. At least many Mongols who have not seen Deng Haonan's strength will choose to oppose it for a while. Now that they are scared, they know that Deng Haonan is much more powerful than Huang Taiji, so they willingly call the ministers and pay tribute.

The meeting lasted for several hours and ended in the middle of the night.

The main purpose is to discuss the offerings that the Mongolian ministries need to pay after they claim to be ministers to the Ming Dynasty, as well as what kind of management methods the Ming government will adopt for the Mongolian ministries, and what benefits the Mongolian ministries can get from the Ming Dynasty.

In terms of worship, Deng Haonan learned from the experience of Huang Taiji, and each department paid tribute to "one white camel, eight white horses, and nine white tributes" every year.

There were not many offerings, but only symbolic tributes, which made the representatives of the various ministries breathe a sigh of relief.

As for the management method to adopt for the Mongolian ministries, Deng Haonan was very careful and listened to the opinions of his father-in-law, Zhai Sang. The interests of the Mongol princes and nobles could not be touched, and it was best to maintain the status quo.

As for the Mongol army, that was what Deng Haonan urgently needed.

However, Deng Haonan is not like Huang Taiji, a man over the age of thirteen and under the age of fifty-five. Deng Haonan doesn't need so many troops now, he only needs the elite. Therefore, the Mongolian army was retained over 20 years old and under 35 years old, and the rest were abolished together.

In this way, the total number of Mongol troops was 870,000, which was reduced to 320,000 at once.

Deng Haonan heard that the Mongolian armies were close to one million, and such a huge military force was simply terrifying.

The eldest brother, Wukeshan, coaxed Taiji to whisper to Deng Haonan, saying: "Don't look at so many armies, after being evenly distributed to fifty or sixty tribes, there are not many in each tribe. If it weren't for the discord of every tribe, it would be possible for Mongolia to make a comeback, how could it be possible for the 100,000 Manchu and Eight Banners to lead the way? ”

Deng Haonan nodded, what if there are many people, the 50 million population of the Ming Empire, if they work together, can they still make Nurhachi so arrogant? A mouthful of spit drowned him.

As long as a nation has cohesion, it can be strong, and the little Japan of later generations has taught Deng Haonan a hard lesson.

There is a long way to go, and Deng Haonan is working hard to create a national cohesion.

Maintain the status quo of the Mongol tribes and maintain the interests of the existing nobles, but the army Deng Haonan will never let go.

The Manchu Qing ruled Mongolia by allowing Mongolia to implement a semi-feudal and semi-slave ownership system, which maintained Mongolia's stability for nearly 300 years and made Mongolia a powerful force of the Manchu government.

Deng Haonan knows very well what 300 years of stability means to the people and what it means to the country.

Deng Haonan did not hesitate to adopt the system implemented by the Manchu Qing Dynasty on Mongolia in history, allowing Mongolia to have a king with a different surname, but he had no military power, no fixed fief, and was just a free prince.

Of course, the ministries are numbered according to the size of their existing strength. Chechen Khan, Tushetu Khan, Zasaktu Khan, and Korqin Khan were the most powerful, and they were named first-class vassal kings, and small tribes such as Aohan, Naiman, Sirha, Xibotu, Ying, and Tang split into second-class vassal kings, or duke, marquis, and earl titles. At the same time, according to the strength and weakness, as well as the loyalty to the Ming Dynasty, there is a difference between the hereditary replacement of the title or the decreasing of each generation.

Deng Haonan did his best to make the distribution as reasonable as possible, so that all departments could achieve satisfactory results. But everything can never be perfect, and the interests of the majority must always be taken care of, and sometimes it is inevitable to sacrifice the interests of some of the few.

In terms of distributing the interests of various tribes, because the Ying, Tang and other tribes were too weak, their territory was annexed by the nearby big tribes, and they only ended up with an inconspicuous title, which was inevitably a little resentful. However, Deng Haonan's allocation was accepted by most of the Mongolian tribal leaders, and they could not accept the general trend.

The Mongolian ministries are not allowed to keep the army, this is Deng Haonan's bottom line, and everything else is easy to discuss. On the issue of taxation, Deng Haonan said that the people of Mongolia and Han have reconciled and have been one family since then. The garrisons of the nine towns of the Great Wall will be reduced year by year, and finally only the garrisons of important passes will be retained, and all other places will be opened, allowing the common people of Mongolia and Han to trade with each other.

Because the leaders of the Mongol tribes were worried about the mutual market, they always suffered losses. The Han people sold things to the Mongols at a high price, but the Mongols deliberately lowered the price of what they sold, so that the Mongolian herdsmen's harvest in a year was often wasted, and the money to buy salt was not enough. As a result, many herdsmen were forced to take risks and become horse thieves and robbers.

Deng Haonan knew that the horse thieves in the Mongolian steppe were powerful, robbed and killed people at every turn, and even arrogantly entered the territory of Daming to rob.

Now, Deng Haonan implements a policy of recuperation and recuperation, and does not want to see this happen again. So Deng Haonan promised them that every year, he would provide enough daily necessities such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea to the herdsmen in various parts of Mongolia, and the price would be approved and collected by the government according to the national average. Herders in Mongolia are also exempt from paying taxes for three years, and in exchange, each Mongolian family is exempt from paying taxes for the whole year if they provide a fine war horse to the government each year.

For the Han Chinese, the tax rate of one war horse a year was too high. However, for Mongolian herdsmen, the tax rate for a family to hand over a war horse a year is about the same as the Han people's tax rate of 50 Na 1, which is quite low, so the leaders of the various tribes have agreed.

These were the main things that Deng Haonan agreed with the representatives of various ministries, and as for the specific matters, Deng Haonan will make a detailed decision when he sends officials to Mongolia.

Of course, the Mongolian ministries took refuge in Deng Haonan, and Deng Haonan could not fail to express it.

For the 550,000 soldiers laid off by the Mongolian army, Deng Haonan will pay for their families. The 320,000 Mongolian troops were absorbed by Deng Haonan, and the same amount of settling-in allowance was also paid, and at the same time, the price was three times that of the Mongolian leader where the source of the army was located, making up for the regret caused by the loss of the army.

At the same time, the original 870,000 troops of the Mongolian tribes had nearly 2 million war horses, and Deng Haonan could not buy these war horses in one go, so he selected 640,000 excellent war horses and equipped them with 320,000 Mongolian cavalry, one person and two horses. For this, Deng Haonan paid more than 20 million taels of silver.

Deng Haonan didn't need to spend money on these things, but Deng Haonan still decided to spend money, he knew that the money would not actually flow into the hands of the herdsmen, and all of it would be embezzled by the leaders of various tribes.

But Deng Haonan still did that, this is Zhai Sang's trick for him, this money is to appease the leaders of the tribes, as long as they take enough silver, they can really be comfortable.

The main reason why the Mongols were divided and their combat effectiveness plummeted was that the chiefs of the tribes preferred a life of luxury to war. This problem of theirs is all left over from the Mengyuan era, and they who are accustomed to living a luxurious life, and even their descendants, are simply like smoking big cigarettes, and they can never quit.

Therefore, Deng Haonan only needs to give them enough money and titles, and no one will rebel against Deng Haonan's rule again.

In this regard, Deng Haonan just shook his head and smiled bitterly. Fortunately, most of the 320,000 young and strong Mongolian soldiers selected did not have this problem, which made Deng Haonan feel more comfortable, after all, he took out 20 million taels of silver and left everyone distressed.

Deng Haonan didn't have much silver left.

His reserves had originally accumulated 100 million taels of silver, but since he became the regent of the prison country, his series of actions, the silver flowed out like water.

This time, he took out more than 20 million taels of silver, and Wang Chengen and Feng Shaoyan suddenly ran to Deng Haonan with bitter faces and complained.

"How much silver is left!"

"Less than 10 million taels!" Wang Chengen cried and reported.

Deng Haonan looked at the appearance of the four dogs, and he was really angry and funny.

laughed and scolded: "Look at you like that! What kind of system? You're also the Minister of Finance now, and you're in charge of both the Internal Affairs Office and the Imperial Finance, so you can't be like Feng Shaoyan—"

When Deng Haonan pointed at Feng Shaoyan, his voice stopped abruptly, and he saw that Feng Shaoyan also looked like he was about to die.

"You two—"

Deng Haonan pointed at the two of them, wanting to get angry, but finally sighed and drank tea by himself.

The two followed, and Feng Shaoyan said, "Lord Wang, you can't spend money like this!" The original treasury of 10,000,000 taels of silver is now less than 10,000,000 taels. At present, the General Staff is deploying Plan M, and the Second Liaoshen War is about to start, and the initial budget of the War Department requires 1 million taels of military expenditure, while the Admiralty has already drawn up a second round of military expansion plans, and the construction of all ten Beiyun-class battleships has begun, consuming about 2 million taels of silver. In accordance with the order of the prince, the Naval Engineering Department designed and built the Xiangying-class battleship, which cost more than one million taels just to build the flying scissor bow and steel-hull hull, and the construction of a 2,000-ton hydraulic press and a power steam engine also cost no less than one million taels. ”

“……”

"This-"

Deng Haonan was a little dumbfounded, since he handed over the finance to Sigou, Deng Haonan rarely asked. Later, after adding Feng Shaoyan, a talent from the Qian Zhuang family, the number of times of attention was less.

Now, the two came together and shook off their family background, making Deng Haonan understand that he is no longer the prince who "left money if he is poor" in the previous legend.

"Silver! Silver! Silver! ”

Deng Haonan muttered to himself, and after chattering a few times, he suddenly asked: "The Pacific Trading Company should still have silver!" Overseas trade has been very active recently, and tariffs should have been collected quite a bit! ”

Wang Chengen replied: "The trading company will not be able to hand over the silver until the end of the year, and it is expected to make a profit of about 40 million taels this year." But considering that weapons and war horses have to be imported from abroad, in the end there may only be 10 million taels left! ”

Feng Shaoyan added: "The number of maritime merchants has increased, such as the Su Li Chao Gang set up the Nanyang Trading Company, which has driven a lot of tariff revenue, and it is expected that the customs revenue will reach 10 million taels by the end of the year, but these together can't withstand the prince's flowering!" ”

Deng Haonan coughed embarrassedly, and said: "War horses don't need to be imported now, and the muskets are almost hoarded, and we will have to produce our own muskets in the future, so there are about 50 million taels in total, and it should be enough to save a little flower!" ”

Feng Shaoyan asked, "Although it is enough now!" But has the prince forgotten what he is going to do in Nanyang? Once the Philippines is moved, there is a gap in overseas trade. And the domestic prince implements recuperation and recuperation, and if he can't get taxes, the finances are easy to collapse! ”

Deng Haonan suddenly remembered this question, and secretly said that he was a little carried away.

Just when Deng Haonan was thinking about the problem, Ding Daniu, the head of the guard, came in to report.

"Lord Wang, the General Staff has sent an urgent message, the remnants of the Manchu Qing want to give up Shenyang, Liu Hu is worried that the enemy will flee into the desert or the deep mountains of Changbai, so he will implement Plan M in advance!"

The Second Liaoshen War broke out!
