Since the detailed discussion with Zhao Yali that day, Li Yunzhong abolished some radical new policies, he felt that what Zhao Yali said was very interesting, the new policies were not completed in a day, and the meaning of the constitution was not a year to make the government and the people understand, these are gradual and gradual, and when the time comes, they can be implemented naturally.

Shen Baozhen held a long list in his hand, this is the list of the country's extraordinarily large death row prisoners, there are thousands of people in the vicinity of the capital alone, and I will persuade them again later, there is no shortage of backbone of these death row prisoners who have rebelled against the party, and it is really endless trouble to release them.

"Lord Shen, the emperor has announced your visit."

Shen Baozhen nodded to Min Shu, bowed his head and walked quickly.

"Minister Shen Baozhen see the emperor!"

Li Yunzhong put down a fold, and said without raising his head: "No courtesy!" ”

Shen Baozhen presented the fold with both hands and reported loudly: "Your Majesty, this is the list of death row prisoners in the country, and Weichen has gathered them in Tianjin and Shanghai, and they can set off at any time, but there are many anti-thieves among them, and I am afraid that there will be endless troubles when they are released, please think twice!" ”

Li Yunzhong was dazzled by the long name on it as soon as he opened it, threw the list aside, and replied: "Let them work, not let them rebel, that place is big, there are many beasts and natives, they are obedient, if they are not obedient, they will only starve to death, and the most important thing is that it is cold all year round, not suitable for war, and they will not be able to develop if they go, you can rest assured." ”

Shen Baozhen couldn't understand it, and asked: "Then why did the emperor let them go to Beizhou, where is it barren and cold, we don't want it, what's the use of exile there?" ”

Li Yunzhong smiled: "There are good things on it!" ”

Shen Baozhen clenched his fists, bowed down and asked, "Dare to ask what is on it?" ”

Li Yun's heart is very good, and he does not hide it. Answered: "Gold! There's a lot of gold, and I sent them to Beizhou to dig for gold. There are quite a few gold mines there. ”

Only then did Shen Baozhen understand, and said secretly: The emperor is doing this thing in private. Eighty percent wants to keep the gold for himself, and I can't spoil the emperor's plan.

Immediately swore an oath: "The emperor can rest assured, Weichen will strictly keep the secret and never reveal half a sentence!" ”

Li Yunzhong said with a smile: "That's nothing, when the news of Beizhou's abundance of gold comes out, the people will definitely flock away, and it will be difficult to manage at that time, and the climate there is bad, and the people will definitely suffer heavy casualties." That's not good! ”

Shen Baozhen smiled secretly: When the news comes out, it doesn't matter if you are the eighteenth-layer hell or the Daoshan oil pot, do the people still have any reason not to go?

Li Yunzhong instructed: "I will send people to show the way, these are people who have been to Beizhou, you send people to be the commander of these death row prisoners, don't let them act alone, in this way, every year send a batch of death row prisoners there, you pass it on." Those who have worked for five years can be acquitted, and those who wish to live in the local area can be given free wasteland. ”

Shen Baozhen nodded, agreeing with the idea.

Min Shu came in and whispered: "Your Majesty." Outside, Zhao Laoqi asked to see him. ”

Li Yunzhong said to Shen Baozhen: "You go down first, and you will do as I instruct, and send someone to transport the gold back every three months." ”

Shen Baozhen should be. Bow and retreat.

"Weichen Zhao Laoqi knocks to see the emperor!"

"Excuse me, how's it going. Did the trip to Shanghai go well? ”

Zhao Laoqi replied: "Your Majesty." Weichen cracked three cases of rebellion and arrested 289 rebels, of which thirteen of the most heinous people have been executed, and the rest were all taken away by the criminal department, the emperor, this is too much, they ......"

Li Yunzhong waved his hand and replied, "This is what I ordered." ”

"Yes! Emperor. Zhao Laoqi didn't dare to complain, and replied: "The emperor asked his ministers to spy on Japan, and Weichen also made a lot of discoveries. ”

A few days ago, the implementation of the new policy was a little impatient, and he summoned hundreds of civil and military officials to oppose it, but Japan was completely westernized, and no one made trouble, which is really strange and strange.

"Tell me about it!"

Zhao Laoqi replied: "Japan has implemented a new policy, vigorously developed the navy and land army, and now there are 100,000 regular troops in the country, all of whom have hired Western instructors for training, and have also established a staff department in accordance with the Han Dynasty, and their combat power should not be underestimated. ”

Li Yunzhong took a deep breath and said in surprise: "Sensational, Japan is a small country, so angry and trying to be strong, who do you say they are targeting?" ”

Zhao Laoqi said with a smile: "Of course they are big Hans, even if they are not big Hans, we can't let them gradually become stronger, otherwise it will only affect the foreign policy of the big Han, and Weichen suggested sending troops to Japan." ”

Li Yunzhong shook his head slowly and sighed: "Now is not the time, my hundreds of thousands of troops are being requisitioned abroad, and if you start a war rashly, military spending will be a big expense." ”

Zhao Laoqi nodded, and it was necessary to send at least 300,000 elite troops to Japan to win a steady victory.

Li Yunzhong suddenly asked, "How is the North Korea doing?" ”

Zhao Laoqi was stunned for a moment, thought about it for a while, and immediately replied: "It is still not easy for the king of Korea to garrison the Han army, not only that, but they have also gathered a lot of troops in the north, and it seems that they are very afraid. ”

Li Yunzhong said: "There is no time to spend with them now, while Japan is not yet strong, let's occupy North Korea first, so that they will not dare to fight the idea of North Korea, at most they will only act in secret." ”

Zhao Laoqi smiled bitterly and said: "The emperor thinks twice, there are many ministers in the DPRK who oppose this matter, and the DPRK has always been respectful to China, I am afraid that if you rashly send troops, not only will the DPRK resist desperately, but even the Han will have someone secretly to help, can you change the way?" ”

Li Yunzhong asked, "What can you do?" ”

Zhao Laoqi said: "Weichen remembers that there is a chaotic party in North Korea, we secretly support them to rebel, as long as the king of North Korea can not support it, he will definitely ask the Han for help, and then we will justifiably march into North Korea, and station a large army in a dangerous place, not afraid that North Korea and Japan will not be convinced." ”

Li Yunzhong said secretly: This is also a way.

"You do it immediately, in short, within a year, I will actually control North Korea!"

"Wechen obeys!"

Zhao Laoqi presented a book of excerpts and replied: "Your Majesty, this is the latest news received by the Intelligence Bureau. ”

Li Yunzhong took a cursory look, was extremely surprised, and said in a lost voice: "What! Alexander intends to negotiate peace? ”

Zhao Laoqi nodded calmly, he didn't know much about European countries, so he could only listen to the emperor's explanation.

Li Yunzhong was puzzled, as soon as he transported the Lianzhu gun to the front line in Europe, this Alexander wanted to surrender, did he really not want to fight, he still couldn't fight, at least he should fight a few battles on the front line before negotiating peace, so that he could end the war with dignity, what did this kid Alexander.

In fact, Li Yunzhong thought wrongly, Russia really couldn't fight, before the guns arrived, the front-line generals took advantage of the new emperor's accession to the throne to launch several attacks, all of them were defeated and returned, losing a lot of fortresses, the front-line generals and soldiers were all pessimistic, not thinking that a few guns could change the outcome of the war, and the British and French forces had more guns than them.

And twenty-three serf uprisings broke out in Russia in three months, and Alexander had to face the reality and admit that it was better to solve it from above than from below.

If the Crimean War ends, not only Britain and France will focus on the situation in the Far East, but even Russia will turn its attention to the east, and the pressure on the Han will be unprecedentedly strong.

"You go back immediately, send men to Nanyang, and inquire and report the situation there at any time, especially the movement of British troops, whether there is an increase in warships, and whether the Dutch and Spain have massacred Chinese."

Zhao Laoqi asked nervously: "The emperor plans to enter Nanyang?" ”

Li Yunzhong nodded solemnly and said: "The Han Navy has been secretly developing for three years, and it has begun to take shape, I plan to find a reason to enter the South Seas, first target the Netherlands and Spain, and fight a war in the South Seas, so that Britain can see the national strength of our Han Dynasty, and let them throw a mouse trap." ”

Zhao Laoqi replied: "Yes, Weichen understands. ”

Li Yunzhong advised: "You go and do this matter personally, I will gather the sailors in Taiwan, as long as there is any movement in Nanyang, you will immediately report to Tang Zhengcai, and he will lead the sailors to attack Nanyang." ”

Zhao Laoqi didn't dare to slack off, and replied solemnly: "Weichen obeys orders!" (To be continued......)
