Chapter 269: New Praetorian Guard
Seeing Kangxi's clear statement, and said that after the implementation of high-yield crops in the north, the ministers of the northern faction would naturally get off the donkey, and no one dared to make a sound of horses.
After Kangxi finished speaking, seeing that no one spoke, his eyes wandered around the princes and ministers, and when he saw this situation, everyone knew that Kangxi was a temporary idea, and he had not even decided on the person who would host this errand. I couldn't help but feel weird, the ministers fought for a long time, but the fourteenth elder brother made up his mind with one sentence, which shows that he has something outstanding in figuring out the emperor's heart.
The fourth elder brother Yin was in his heart, didn't Kangxi intend to let him be in charge of this errand? This opportunity can not be missed, a little hesitation, he stood up and played: "Emperor Ama, spread into the mu to benefit the country and the people, only to the detriment of the gentry and the powerful, the local powerful family, are all intertwined, hands and eyes to the sky, will try to obstruct the smooth implementation of the new law, this law is the first initiative of the sons, the sons are willing to thoroughly implement and implement this law, one is to share the worries of the emperor, and the other can also take the opportunity to experience local government affairs." The retainers prayed to Emperor Ama for permission. ”
As soon as he saw the fourth brother standing up to ask for battle, Yinzhen couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, paving into the mu by the fourth to implement, but it can be guaranteed, Kangxi groaned slightly, and then said: "Paving into the mu is an innovation of the national enslavement system, involving a wide range of things, and the significance is extraordinary. ”
All the ministers listened to it gasp, Kangxi attached great importance to the spread of the acres to the point of no return, a province tried out, and actually sent such a large lineup, but, 'Guan Tu, Zhao Shenqiao was sent to Guangdong, many ministers were secretly relieved, this old boy left Beijing for a while.
Many ministers are even more schadenfreude, now the Guangdong officialdom is lively, go to a 'cold noodle king, ・ add a 'official slaughter', even the criminal department has a waiter, I don't know how many officials are not guaranteed?
Yin is very depressed, Kangxi actually assigned Zhao Shenqiao to be his deputy, this old boy has a strange temperament, he can be called iron-faced and selfless, the old fourteen have been participated by him twice, this is going to be caught by him, and he is bound to be involved, I really don't know what Kangxi thinks?
Yinzhen is secretly happy with such a large lineup, Kangxi should be ready to take this opportunity to rectify the rule of officials in Guangdong, this is a good way, killing two birds with one stone, not only implementing the new law, but also rectifying the rule of officials, Kangxi is really a good means.
As soon as the dynasty dispersed, Yinzhen was called into the Xinuan Pavilion by Kangxi.
After the ceremony, Kangxi gave a seat to enjoy tea as usual, and when Yinzhen sat down, Kangxi asked, "When will the naval fleet arrive in Tianjin?" The date of the dedication ceremony may be scheduled? ”
Yinzhen had already planned about this matter and immediately bowed to him and said: "Back to Huang Ama, the naval fleet is expected to arrive in Tianjin Wei on April 12 at the latest, and the specific date of surrender of prisoners is also requested to be determined by Huang Ama." ”
Kangxi nodded and said, "Then it's tentatively scheduled for April 18." Immediately afterwards, he added: "The improved artillery is so powerful, once it is circulated, the consequences are unimaginable, have you ever thought about this?" ”
Hearing Kangxi mention this problem, Yinzhen replied confidently: "Hui Huang Ama Whether it is artillery or firearms, the management of Erchen is extremely strict, internal and external sentry, Ming soldiers and secret agents, strict prevention at all levels, even if it is waste, it is never allowed to flow out, Erchen is still thinking recently, and wants to move the firearms factory, cannon factory, and gunpowder workshop to Xiaoyangshan to facilitate more strict management." ”
Xiaoyangshan? Kangxi was slightly stunned and stared at Yinzhen suspiciously.
Yinzhen hurriedly explained: "Xiaoyangshan is an island at the exit of Hangzhou Bay, Erchen can go to the field several times, Xiaoyangshan is a natural deep-water port, and there is no siltation and filling, it is only 30 nautical miles away from the land, and it can be reached by boat for more than an hour.
The relocation of the military factory to Xiaoyangshan is not only conducive to the strict management of firearms, but also effectively prevents outsiders from snooping on the secrets of artillery, and the naval fleet can also be stationed in Xiaoyangshan to prevent Western businessmen from knowing the true situation of the navy. It's just that the project is quite large, and the transportation of raw materials is quite inconvenient. ”
Kangxi was also a little hesitant for a while, moving to Xiaoyangshan, the benefits are obvious, but in this way, it is not conducive to monitoring, once the navy changes, it cannot be stopped at all, and he said after a long time: "There are not a few military factories, and the number of craftsmen in them is huge, and it is impossible to be confined to the island for a long time. ..., "Yes, Your Majesty." Yinzhen's proposal was just a temptation, seeing that Kangxi was strict with the navy, and he strengthened the idea of building a logistics base in Manila.
Kangxi followed the conversation and asked: "How do you think about the supply of firearms and ammunition for the Tianjin fleet?" ”
said a thousand ways and ten thousand, Kangxi was most concerned about the safety of his imperial power, Yinzhen couldn't help but secretly slander himself, however, he also attached great importance to Tianjin, and replied immediately: "Back to the emperor Ama, Tianjin's fleet must also continue to grow and develop, and it can't always rely on Shanghai for transshipment."
Erchen secretly believed that it was necessary to establish a military factory and a naval academy in Tianjin, widen and renovate the post road from Tianjin to the capital, and build defensive forts. ”
Kangxi just wanted to establish a military factory in Tianjin to avoid being controlled in Shanghai, but he didn't expect Yinzhen to take advantage of the topic to play, and he was building a fort, a naval academy, and a post road, he couldn't help but wonder, what did the old fourteen think? Develop Tianjin into a second Shanghai?
After pondering for a while, Kangxi said: "Building forts and building military factories is the proper meaning of the question, why do you want to build a naval academy in Tianjin?" ”
"Back to Huang Ama, in fact, it should be more appropriate to call it a military academy." Yinzhen replied: "Not only to train the navy, Erchen also plans to train a new type of guard for the emperor. ”
A new Praetorian Guard? Kangxi's heart jumped, the old fourteen still wants to get involved in the infantry? The fox glanced at Yinzhen suspiciously, and then he said in a sullen voice: "What is the new style?" ”
Listening to Kangxi's sullen words, Yinzhen couldn't help but be careful, there was no turning back when he opened the bow, he could only hook Kangxi's interest first, otherwise he was afraid that this plan would die, and after a slight pause, he muttered: "It is similar to the Han army's firearms battalion, but it is equipped with new land artillery, and three thousand new troops are enough to sweep the desert." ”
Three thousand new troops are enough to sweep through the desert! As soon as Kangxi heard this, his eyes immediately lit up, although Galdan was dead, but the Junggar Department, Southern Xinjiang, Northern Xinjiang, and Hui Department were not stable, and sooner or later there would be a big war, and the combat power of the new army could really be so strong, which could be described as a blessing for the country.
