readx;
Liu Chengfeng looked a little tired, he hadn't slept well for several nights, but now was a critical moment, so he had to hold on to various court meetings at night. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Now the Shangjia's call for the royal court to come up with specific rules is getting higher and higher, and the Chu State is also striking while the iron is hot, and the most urgent thing at the moment is to unify the administration and re-carry out the administrative planning of this Nanyang, otherwise according to the original set pursued by various countries, I am afraid that it will have to be chaotic.
However, the details of this matter, the political axe has been drawn up, the political axe will be the entire Nanyang divided into more than 40 provinces, such as Annam, it is divided into Nanyue, North Vietnam two provinces, Zhenla is also divided into two, as for Luzon, it is divided into three prefectures, according to the precedent of the Ming Dynasty, each prefecture is stationed in the prefect management, and to be appointed as a prefect, both Han people can be used or vassal people, but the prerequisite is that there must be qualifications recognized by the Chu State, such as being proficient in Chinese, able to write Chinese, have read the books of the hundred schools of thought, and have certain qualifications.
Under normal circumstances, the prefect is recommended by the country, and then reviewed by the council axe, if the review is passed, the appointment will be made, if the review is not passed, the council axe will be reappointed.
This article took care of the interests of some of the feudal lords, at least giving them the right to nominate them, and the political axe firmly controlled the decision-making power, and also choked the lifeblood of the countries.
In addition to the division of administration, the next step is the formulation of the law, the laws of various countries are different, it is easy for people to take advantage of loopholes, so Xing Cao began to formulate the law according to the Ming law, and at the same time invited various countries to come to discuss, in order to ensure that this law can be recognized by the majority of people at least on the surface.
And Liu Chengfeng doesn't care about these, what he really cares about is another issue, that is, the upcoming disarmament and the recruitment of the coalition army, according to the agreement reached between Liu Chengfeng and other countries, all countries are not allowed to retain any army except for the protection of the vassal royal family, all the troops are all reduced, or a part of the elite is transferred into the Nanyang Coalition Army, the coalition army has two major battalions, namely the Han military camp and the feudal army camp, the Han military camp only recruits Han people for training, and the feudal military camp is varied, which is divided into Annan battalion, Zhenla battalion, Luzon battalion, The Javanese battalion and the like, each battalion has a quota of 5,000, and the battalion is divided into three armies, horses, infantry and artillery, and after unified training, they are assigned to garrison in various places, such as the Annam battalion, which is often sent to Java to be stationed, and most of the Javanese are stationed in Luzon.
Of course, the military attaches in the Han military camp are mainly Han Chinese, and the feudal camp will appropriately increase some feudal people, so Liu Chengfeng had another idea to set up a military attache school, which can be selected by the Han and feudal nobles, so that they can accept some military knowledge, and at the same time subtly change their ideology, so that these feudal nobles who usually have nothing to do find something to do.
In terms of treatment, Liu Chengfeng has always been generous to the nobles of the domain, after all, winning them over can alleviate certain contradictions.
The detailed rules were almost finalized, Liu Chengfeng breathed a sigh of relief, in the brightly lit political axe hall, Liu Chengfeng stretched his waist, and couldn't help but say to Li Dongdong: "The thing is done, the lonely king can also breathe a sigh of relief, he has been busy for so long, the lonely king should also enjoy the blessings, the lonely king wants to rest for a few days, and the rest of the things can be handled by yourself as appropriate." If there is something that is difficult to decide, let me tell you again. ”
Li Dongdong is in a good mood, this time it is equivalent to a snake swallowing an elephant, Lianzhou did not use a knife to control the entire Nanyang at once, and the depth of control is not much worse than the county system, now everyone is happy, the businessmen are aiming at business opportunities again, job opportunities have also increased greatly, more influx of Han people can take the opportunity to be resettled, he is the leader of the government, and the real power has also expanded from a small country to the entire Nanyang, the tariffs of various ports, the operation and coordination of the huge army, and the appointment and dismissal of a large number of officials have also fallen into his hands. It can be said that he is not much worse than his brother in terms of authority.
He shook his spirits, nodded and said, "Your Highness, it's time to take a break, and we can take care of the rest." ”
Liu Chengfeng yawned contentedly, and then paced away.
Walking out of the lobby of the political axe, the sunlight outside sprinkled down, so that Liu Chengfeng had an indescribable comfort, his hard work in the past half a year was obviously not in vain, things were as he calculated, now Liu Chengfeng urgently needs time most, if the time comes, he will create a miracle in this land.
Thinking of this, Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but have some blood boiling, he had solved the financial problems for the Ming Dynasty and alleviated the troubles of the Ming Dynasty, but Liu Chengfeng knew that in fact, there was still a huge hidden danger in the Ming Dynasty, the dynasty had been peaceful for too long, the population had increased dramatically, but the land had never increased, and the contradiction between people and land had become more and more acute.
And the emergence of the state of Chu, it has become a window of the Ming Dynasty, once the population increases will cause the displaced people, the displaced people in the past can not be solved, but now there is a way out, that is to go to the South Seas, in this way, the population problem of the Ming Dynasty has been alleviated, and Nanyang due to the influx of a large number of Han people, these people will also become a solid foundation for the state of Chu in the South Seas.
Liu Chengfeng was thinking nonsense, and returned to the depths of the inner palace, he was indeed a little tired, and he already had a plan, he would not do anything in the past few months, and find an opportunity to take the princess and the county lord to play together, where should he go? Liu Chengfeng didn't expect for the time being, in fact, after being here for so long, although he knew everything about the people of Chu and the situation of Nanyang countries, he didn't know anything about where to go in Lianzhou, or what scenic spots in Chu State.
"Duoduo, this girl is the most playful, I must have inquired clearly, and I will ask her when the time comes."
Liu Chengfeng was quite happy in his heart, and he couldn't help humming a little song.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… Chu State has always been the object of attention of the Beijing Division, at least for public opinion, the slightest disturbance in Chu State can be reported by the newspapers here, in the past, Chu State made something to open the examination for officials, and almost laughed off the big teeth of many people, which caused a great sensation for a while. And the progress of the Chu State in Nanyang has now become the latest news.
It is said that because of this news, the price of all the goods in the whole treasure building has risen by half percent, and the price of the treasure building has become more and more mature with the improvement of the benefits, so the ups and downs are not very big now, but now this time it is rising, it is really because of the impact of the huge good news.
Nanyang is firmly controlled in the hands of the Chu State, which means that the price of raw materials for goods will be lower, it stands to reason that the lower the price, the price of goods should also fall, but in fact, this is not the case, the raw materials fell, the goods remained unchanged for the time being, and the merchants earned a lot more profits from it.
In addition, the Franco-mechanics were driven out of the South Seas, and there was no competition from the Han merchants, so the price naturally rose.
This is great news for businessmen, but not good news for some. At least for the officials of the yamen, they always feel a little ridiculous, back then, everyone drove Liu Chengfeng out under the pretext of Liu Chengfeng bullying the feudal states, who knew that this made Liu Chengfeng free up his hands to clean up the feudal states, but now although everyone is dissatisfied with Liu Chengfeng, it is also beyond the reach of the whip, not to mention, a storm has been brewed in the court, at this moment, everyone's attention still has to pay attention to the court situation.
The reason for the matter is very simple, the West Factory has been getting more and more powerful recently, which has caused dissatisfaction in the cabinet, who is Liu Jian? He was used to saying everything when he was in the Hongzhi Dynasty, but now that he was suddenly constrained by the eunuchs, he naturally decided to fight back.
It just so happened that a major event happened so that Liu Jian seized the opportunity, after Liu Jin gradually came to power, he immediately elected his brother as a guerrilla general, the cabinet originally disagreed, but Liu Jin repeatedly encouraged the emperor, and finally Zhu Houzhao personally spoke, and the matter was settled.
And this father-in-law Liu's brother is not very good, the place where he went to work is Liaodong, originally Liu Jin's mind was to hope that he would stay in Liaodong for a few years, and then find a way to make some merits, and then transfer back to Beijing. Over the years, Liaodong Chengping has not even seen a few thieves, so he is not afraid of any danger.
But the problem arises.
At this time, on the prairie, unlike the Ming Dynasty that has been Chengping for a long time, the Monan tribes supported Li Ruofan to defeat the tile thorn, and this ambitious woman was not satisfied with the current situation, at the beginning of the year, launched an attack on the Tatars, and for a while, both sides were happy to kill, and the Ming Dynasty adopted an attitude of indifference, obviously unwilling to get involved in this war.
By April, the situation began to deteriorate, and the Monan tribes defeated tens of thousands of Tatar elites in one fell swoop, and then broke through the strength of the Tatars, all the way to the Tatar hinterland, and the battlefield stretched from the Datong line to the Liaodong area.
Liu Jin's brother had long wanted to make meritorious contributions, but the Tatars saw that they were lonely and could not speak, so they actually promised a bribe to the general guarding the border town and invited the Ming army to go out, so this dizzy guy really led his troops to help the war.
The final result can be imagined, the Tatar defeat, a Ming army also lost its armor, and more importantly, the Ming Dynasty, which had always pursued neutrality, also doubled the pressure, and the Monan Zhubu had sent a sternly worded letter of state, which looked like a teacher asking for guilt.
This incident really stunned the imperial court, they only knew that this General Liu was stupid, but they didn't expect that it would be so stupid, a general actually went to war without a holy decree, is this person really not afraid of death?
And the cabinet is keenly aware that the opportunity is coming
