On August 15 of the third year of the Apocalypse, this day is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the good news of recovering Shenyang and Liaoyang has been transmitted, which makes this festival festive.

Early in the morning, a group of civil and military ministers entered the noon gate and came to the Imperial Palace.

The emperor took the initiative to find them to go to the early court, and the number of times was really not much. At present, the emperor can be regarded as diligent in three days and in the morning. There was even a precedent before the last early dynasty for more than half a month.

Well-informed already knew that the Ming army had recovered the Liaohe Plain in eastern Liao.

Everybody knows what that means. The core thing is still interests.

After the Liaohe Plain was recovered, it was tens of millions of acres of cultivated land, and although Liaodong was relatively cold and bitter, the cultivated land was excellent. At the same time, a large number of furs, medicinal herbs, wood and other things are produced.

In the past, when Liaodong was not occupied by Jiannu, it was a cash cow for the ministers of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China, and they could get a lot of silver from Liaodong every year through various means of collecting money.

When the time came, the eunuch shouted: "The emperor has arrived." ”

Zhu Youxiao came to the Huangji Palace, and the civil and military officials bowed as usual.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

"Flat."

Zhu Youxiao sat on the dragon chair and looked very good in spirit. There was also a look of joy between the eyebrows, and some officials, after observing the words and expressions, came to the conclusion that the emperor was in a good mood.

Zhu Youxiao's mood is naturally very good, the recovery of the Liaohe Plain has made Jiannu lose the territory for development and production, and there is no development in other areas, let alone Han people, and Jiannu has no productivity at all.

"Yesterday I received good news, the officers and soldiers of the imperial court have recovered most areas such as Shenyang and Liaoyang, and the whole army of Jiannu has withdrawn to Tieling. Now that Shenyang and Liaoyang have been recovered, I want to hear the opinion of the listener Aiqing on how the imperial court should restore the administration. Zhu Youxiao said to the courtiers.

"Your Majesty. The ministers thought that the imperial court should select officials, restore the prefectures and counties of Liaodong, and move the people from the customs to Liaodong to cultivate crops, and after only a few years, the imperial court would be able to collect taxes, and then the finances could be greatly improved. An official immediately jumped out and suggested.

Zhu Youxiao just nodded. did not echo, but asked other officials: "What else do you have to say?" ”

At this time, Wang Shaohui stood up and reported to Zhu Youxiao: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that although the Liaohe region has been recovered, in the process of recovering the Liaohe River, the main force of Jiannu has not been annihilated. If it is rash to immigrate to the Liaohe region to cultivate crops, then wouldn't it give Jiannu another opportunity to take advantage of? At that time, Jiannu only needs to make a comeback and plunder again in the Liaohe region, and this trouble may not be eliminated. ”

"Ridiculous. Ridiculous, the 300,000 troops of the imperial court gathered in Liaodong, and they would be afraid that Jiannu would come to plunder? ”

"Jiannu is just a disease of scabies, if the front-line officers and soldiers use their lives, why be afraid."

"Resettlement is the right way, if there is no support from the people, how can the front-line officers and soldiers fight."

As soon as Wang Shaohui finished speaking, he was heavily attacked by a group of Donglin Party. These Donglin parties all wanted the imperial court to restore the administration of Liaodong as soon as possible, and quickly immigrate more people.

It is in their best interest to do so. Instead of recovering the Liaodong Peninsula before, they sold their assets to those companies for development, so that they could not get any profit at all. On the other hand, the Han Emperor Party can get a lot of benefits from it. Because the Han Emperor Party is the spokesperson of the rectification of the royal consortium.

But their Donglin Party has no interest in the royal consortium. Moreover, with the development model of the Liaodong Peninsula, it is difficult for officials to collect any people's fat and people's cream from the common people. After all, those resources are being developed in the hands of those companies. Exploiting those businesses is no longer within their purview, that's the tax office's business. There is only a group of workers left, and there is no reason to exploit it.

In other words, whether to immigrate to Liaodong on a large scale is also related to the struggle of the system.

Those Donglin parties did not want to see the system of Beizhili continue to proliferate, thereby harming their interests. or to the detriment of their class interests.

Since the collection of commercial tax in Beizhili, the traditional big businessmen have basically been eliminated. The people who survived were all merchants of the royal consortium, which was completely unfavorable to the Jiangnan capitalist class and the scholar class represented behind them.

At this time, Shen Yun jumped out and said: "The minister thinks that what Lord Wang said is reasonable, although the Liaohe region has been recovered, the hundred-legged insects of Jiannu are dead but not stiff. At this time, rashly immigrating to Liaodong will only give Jiannu an opportunity, and at the same time, he is gambling with the lives of ordinary people. Since some people think that building slaves is not a cause for concern, there is no need to rush to relocate the people to Liaodong to cultivate crops. Who will pay for this migration? ”

A group of Donglin Party looked stunned, and a thousand words were not as convincing as this money!

Zhu Youxiao nodded and agreed: "What Aiqing said is very true! Who will pay for the relocation of the people? At present, the finances of the imperial court are all budgeted, and once there is a fiscal deficit, it will not be good. ”

"Your Majesty, since the imperial court is not well funded, the matter of relocating the people to cultivate Liaodong will be postponed for some time, and it just doesn't give Jiannu a chance to take advantage of it."

The Han Emperor Party echoed one after another, and soon the basic argument came out.

That is, not to emigrate to the Liaohe region for the time being, but to wait for the situation in eastern Liaodong to be completely stabilized.

This argument is actually what Zhu Youxiao wants, and recovering the Liaohe Plain at this time is indeed a good thing for the Ming Dynasty. But behind this good thing, there is a big risk.

That is, the Ming army will face a problem, that is, wild boar skins have also begun to fight guerrillas on the Liaohe Plain, what to do if they rob with a hammer in the east and a mallet in the west?

At that time, the wild boar skin led the bandit gang to rob the supplies, and they were stable again. After a few years of consumption back and forth, the national strength of the Ming Dynasty has been consumed in Liaodong in this way, how to face the next natural and man-made disasters?

As long as the Ming Dynasty does not immigrate in large numbers to the Liaohe Plain for the time being, wild boar skins will not be grabbed. When the time comes, you can only come to grab the military supplies of the Ming army, but can the current Ming army be robbed by wild boar skin? Even if they get something to grab, it will have to pay a huge price.

"Of course, although there will be no immigration to the Liaohe region for the time being, the administration of the cities of Shenyang and Liaoyang can still be laid first. The officials will choose some officials and send them over! Zhu You instructed Wang Shaohui.

"Obey." Wang Shaohui bowed to the order.

This time, Zhu Youxiao of the early dynasty once again successfully achieved his goal, and he did not leave any chance for the wild boar skin to revivenation.

And in the eyes of many officials, the Liaohe Plain is indeed a piece of fat.

In fact, in Zhu Youxiao's eyes, the Liaohe Plain is indeed a piece of fat, and the royal consortium is destined to swallow the resources of the Liaohe Plain.

At the same time, the entire northeast is also fat in the eyes of Zhu Youxiao, although the winter in the northeast during the Xiaoice River period was a little frighteningly cold, but it is not impossible to carry out production and development. It's a big deal to grow some crops with shorter growth cycles, such as soybeans, in the Northeast. There are also minerals and forests in the Northeast, which are all resources that the Ming Dynasty needs.

The upcoming Xiaoice River will lead to a large number of natural disasters.

In the face of natural disasters, as long as the total amount of per capita resources is expanded, and then the allocation is clear, it will be able to survive the situation. It is imperative to take the entire Northeast.

After the early dynasty, Zhu Youxiao went back to the palace and the queen to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The officers and soldiers on the front line received the moon cakes sent by Zhu Youxiao in the logistics supply, which had been prepared very early.

These moon cakes were distributed to officers and soldiers at all levels, and officers and soldiers at all levels were so moved that they swore to repay the emperor's grace under the leadership of the instructors.

Sun Chengzong and Sun Chuanting received a holy decree from the Jingshi Kuaima.

"Fengtian carried the emperor, and the edict said: Sun Chengzong, the governor of Liaodong, and Sun Chuanting, the governor of Jinzhou Town, have made meritorious contributions to the recovery of the territory of the Liaohe River, and they are specially given a unicorn suit for each of them, and a thousand taels of gold. He was crowned with the title of Sun Chengzong's Taifu and Sun Chuanting's title of Prince and Young Master. In addition, the military situation on the front line was changing rapidly, and in order to adapt to the war situation, the 'Liaodong Command Headquarters' was established, with Sun Chengzong as the commander of the headquarters and Sun Chuanting as the deputy commander of the headquarters. Liaodong Town, Jinzhou Town, and Dongjiang Town are all under the command of the Liaodong Command. ”

"The minister Sun Chengzong (Sun Chuanting) bowed to the emperor." Sun Chengzong and Sun Chuanting received the holy decree, which also meant that the Ming army in Liaodong moved from dispersion to unified operations and command.

Immediately, the eunuch delivered a letter from Zhu Youxiao to Sun Chengzong and Sun Chuanting respectively, mainly explaining the matters of warfare.

In his letter, Zhu Youxiao explained that Sun Chengzong and Sun Chuanting were cautious in marching into the army, and that the main operational idea was to preserve their own vital forces and kill and injure the enemy's vital forces.

The content of the letter was not to command the front line to adopt any tactics to fight, but to express the needs of the Ming Empire to Sun Chengzong and Sun Chuanting.

The demand at this time is stability.

The demise of a dynasty is usually caused by turmoil. If it wants to be stable, the Ming army cannot lose its troops.

After Sun Chengzong and Sun Chuanting read the letter, they immediately sent a letter back to Zhu Youxiao and asked the eunuch to take it back. Such correspondence between monarchs and ministers is still relatively frequent, which is obviously a good habit. Maintaining communication between military ministers and explaining what they want to do and what they want to achieve can also reduce a lot of unnecessary misunderstandings and suspicions.

"This advance is the best policy." Sun Chengzong also agreed with the emperor's opinion, and he and Sun Chuanting had basically speculated that the wild boar skin was likely to launch a major counterattack during the Ming army's attack on Tieling.

On August 15, the Ming army spent the Mid-Autumn Festival in Shenyang.

The next day, Sun Chengzong and Sun Chuanting were in the middle of the army, and the 200,000 Ming troops in Shenyang marched north on the same day, slowly advancing in the direction of Tieling.

What I guessed correctly was that the boar skin did intend to launch a wave of counterattack. On the way of the Ming army's attack on Tieling, Jiannu's scouts appeared around the Ming army one after another, and they were inseparable from the Ming army scouts.

Before the two sides fought, the contest between reconnaissance and counterreconnaissance began to rage. (To be continued......)
