Section 552 The power of the nation
How strong is Daming in this era?
The true record of history is that since the establishment of the Daming Water Division, it has been invincible in the world for 300 years and has tasted defeat.
How many soldiers are there in the Ming Dynasty, there are really two million soldiers in the guard, plus the Ding of the guard, as well as the officials and errands from all over the country. The major families guarded the courtyards, and the private soldiers of each noble rank in front of them, four million people were able to make it up.
Before, the Ming Dynasty was poor, and some people might not be able to equip it.
But now it's different, the Ming Dynasty has silver, there is enough silver and steel to equip these people, and the best thing to use in Nanyang is not muskets, but bows, crossbows, steel knives, shields, as well as short muskets and light artillery. There are many dense forests in the South Seas, which are not suitable for cavalry troops, so the shield and sword soldiers are strong soldiers.
Three days later, the Ming Emperor, the cabinet, and the six ministries issued a formal decree.
Sun Yuanzhen was transferred to Beijing and entered the cabinet, and was the secretary of the military department. Transferred Mao Sheng to the south, led the five armies to the governor's mansion, and prepared for the war in Nanyang. Deng Hailong added Jing Haibo, commander-in-chief of the Liangguang Navy. Bai Minghe served as the supervisor of the army and stayed in Nanjing.
At the same time, the Ming Dynasty issued a conscription order to recruit soldiers from all over the country, south of the Strait of Malacca, extermination!
Bai Minghe returned to the backyard and called Qinghe in Sun Yuanjun's room: "Our family, how much silver do we have." β
"How much does the husband want to use silver?" Sun Yuanjun asked.
"As much as you want." The white name crane is very strict.
Sun Yuanjun smiled: "Husband, if you want to build a thousand-mile railway, or build a thousand-ship fleet, according to the reward that Wansui originally gave to your husband, we don't dare to receive it, we don't dare to ask for it, but after all these years of accumulation, the amount of this silver is estimated that any businessman can be scared to death on the spot when he hears it." β
Sun Yuanjun didn't talk nonsense. Because the white crane said how many there were.
So apart from the 10,000-mile railway and a thousand warships, Sun Yuanjun couldn't think of anything else to do, it was worth spending so much silver.
A smile appeared at the corner of Bai Minghe's mouth: "Donate, this time I have a big plan for my husband." So I plan to donate the money. Make this big plan more beautiful. β
"When the money arrives at the husband's current Cheng dΓΉ, it's just a number, even if it is all donated, our family doesn't have a penny, and the next day, life is still the same. The husband's silver is just piled up. We don't feel silver anymore, and there seems to be no difference between having it and not having it. β
"Okay, donate ninety percent, in exchange for a stable eternity!"
"The husband is clever!" Sun Yuanjun understood what Bai Minghe was going to do. With only ninety percent of the family property, it is absolutely no problem to change to a royal hereditary prince, and it can also be exchanged for the respect of all the people. If Bai Minghe only wants to be a rich man, even if the Confucian Mansion sees Bai Minghe, he will bow his head, which is definitely a hundred times more noble than the Confucian Mansion that has maintained the title of duke for 2,000 years.
Confucius is just a fame.
And the white-named crane Daming has tens of millions of immortal tablets, and the white-named crane has brought tangible benefits to the people of Daming.
Because of the white crane, the people of the Ming Dynasty lived a rich life.
How much money does the white crane have, the Ming Emperor said that he would give the white crane thirty percent of the income on the sea, and the white crane dared to ask for it at that time. Later, the Ming Emperor decreed, one percent. Just this one percent, regardless of the import trade. Or export trade, all merchants will leave a point for the white crane.
Bai Minghe got one percent of the total GDP of the entire foreign trade, Daming Xinxing Workshop, Daming Xinxing Agriculture, and more than seventy percent of Daming's internal trade, even if Bai Minghe's family ate gold and drank gold every day, such a huge wealth was like taking water from a big lake.
A few glasses of water have too little effect on the entire lake.
Donate, donate ninety. An astronomical amount. If you want to donate, you will shock the world.
In the capital, the Ming Emperor summoned the important ministers. What was on the table was Bai Minghe's plan, and Yu Qian only said one sentence after reading it: "Long live." The wisdom of the white crane is close to the demon, although this plan is vicious, but it has kept the stability of the Ming Dynasty for five hundred years. The minister seconded the proposal! β
can let Yu Qian not pick a thorn and directly second, this is the first time in all the recitals of Bai Minghe.
Just as he was about to transfer it to Hu Hu, Wei Shaoqing came in: "Long live, a telegram came from Nanjing, and Lord Bai, a cabinet clerk, sent a letter, asking him to donate ninety percent of his family property. The slave asked Xing'an before he came, and he also asked the person in charge of Hai Si here, and they answered the same way, Bai Minghe's family property is not countable, innumerable! β
"Let him donate, I ......" Zhu Qiyu smiled: "Send a message to him, and I will make him a famous crane duke." If you want to be crowned king, when he takes me to the Mediterranean to see the seagulls, I will give him the title of king. However, only seventy percent was collected, and the other two percent, together with the one he kept for himself, saw that he didn't want it, so he gave it to my three sisters, and did it. β
Wei Shaoqing stepped back.
Yu Qian hurriedly said: "Long live, the white-named crane has the heart to retreat?" β
"Yes, he really does, as you can see from this. After this step, he wanted to be a distant prince, saying that he wanted to travel around the world. I've heard that this world is very big, and it will take decades to see all the beautiful and famous things in the world. β
Zhu Qiyu didn't evade, told Yu Qian truthfully, and then said: "Even if there is no family property donated by Bai Minghe, Daming has enough money and food, and Bai Minghe's plan is very big, it is estimated that it will take a year or two to complete, you Aiqing take good care of your body, before this plan is completed, I will ask you." β
Zhu Qiyu just said a word, and immediately knelt on the ground.
"Long live, the minister thought that he would send Li Bing to implement the Goryeo plan, and the minister would personally implement the Wadao plan, and then long live the princes, how about you come to Long live?"
"No, let the imperial brother and the white crane come, I believe that the white crane will do a beautiful job."
Zhu Qiyu changed a candidate, Yu Qian communicated with Hu Hu, Gao Gu and others, and quickly reached a consensus, this arrangement is acceptable, Bai Minghe is also a ruthless person, and there is also the support of the Emperor Zhu Qizhen.
"Long live, the minister thought that Annan's plan was handed over to Mao Sheng. The Burmese minister couldn't think of a suitable candidate, and Deng Hailong was there in the Nanyang Battle, and the sailors were undefeated and 6 chaotic. Moreover, the Nanyang plan is in the end, and when the time comes, it will gather everyone's strength and win it in one fell swoop, and the area of Nanyang is no smaller than that of the Ming Dynasty. β
"Okay, come up with the fine rules." Zhu Qiyu has always maintained a slight state of excitement.
This is the greatest grand strategy he thought as an emperor, and the Ming Dynasty has issued a national mobilization order. With the strength of the country, all the troubles in the east, southeast, and south will be solved in one fell swoop, and once and for all. That's why there is a saying that the Ming Dynasty has been stable for 500 years.
It's just that this plan takes too long to implement, and every step needs to be taken carefully.
Two days later, the Holy Decree was given. White cranes are allowed to donate family property. The white crane wants to donate ninety percent, and the Ming Dynasty only collects seventy percent, which is not entered into the treasury, and the single account is spent for the conquest of Nanyang, and not a penny can be transferred for other purposes. Reading the merits of the white crane over the years, he was crowned the famous crane duke, the title of the famous crane is only one generation, and the duke's position is hereditary.
The state capitals received the decree by telegram and then looked for a bookstore in the local area. Movable type printing was used to print a large number of newspapers in various state capitals and sell them at cost price, so as to publicize the major events of the country that had been thought to be made known to the world.
The next day, another decree was given.
The heavy artillery unit of the Ming Royal Praetorian Guard was transferred to Tulupan to guard against the rebellion in the Western Regions. On that day, the general army of Tulupan waited for the heavens to send a telegram to the capital, and if there was an invasion by foreign enemies, they would occupy the last soldier. In order to ensure that the west portal of the Ming Dynasty is not lost.
The transfer of heavy artillery troops to the west means that the Ming Dynasty is ready to go to war.
It was the fourth watch again, and the Ming Emperor once again convened the cabinet to deliberate. Discuss the defense of the north and the defense of Liaodong.
"So ......"
Zhu Qiyu was about to put forward some ideas, a eunuch said outside the door that there was something important to report, and after being allowed to come in, the eunuch knelt down and saluted: "Long live the lord, there are people gathered outside the Chengtian Gate, and the slave dares to ask long live to move." β
"Let's go!" There must be something out of the ordinary. Zhu Qiyu didn't even ask for details, and walked outside the Chengtian Gate with the cabinet ministers.
There is a huge square outside the Chengtian Gate. Originally, this was the royal parade ground, and every official expedition will have a departure ceremony from here. Available today. Tens of thousands of people gathered, but the square was empty, because it was filled with other things.
He had just ascended to the top of the city, and a huge curtain one foot high and seven feet wide had opened seven sides.
There are seven big characters in the book, the ancestor of Emperor Liao, Emperor Shiyan!
Yan! Emperor Zhu Qiyu of the Ming Dynasty remembered that last year he also personally instructed to renovate the tomb of Emperor Yan and repair the Temple of Emperor Yan. This is not in the Ming Dynasty, in the Tang Dynasty, Song and other dynasties there are records of the emperor in person, or sending important people to worship, and the Chinese orthodoxy recognizes the emperor's identity as the emperor, and also recognizes this as the Chinese emperor.
Liao, the Khitan clan, was once wiped out by the Mengyuan, the clansmen were assigned to the Mengyuan occupied everywhere, after these hundreds of years of exhibition, the population is also a lot, but because of the non-Han nationality, there are not many people as officials. And because they once helped Meng Yuan destroy Jin and Song Dynasty, their social status is not high.
Zhu Qiyu looked back at Hu Hui, Hu Hui bowed, realizing that he understood, and he would deal with this matter.
A rising sun rose from the horizon, and a ray of light was on the square in front of Chengtian Gate, and Zhu Qiyu, who was about to tell Hu Hu about the Khitan family, was shocked by the scene in front of him.
In the past, some people talked about gold and silver. But except for the white crane who has built a warehouse, ordinary people really haven't seen it.
At this time, on this square, a mountain of gold and a mountain of silver were piled up.
Stacks of silver coins, silver ingots, boxes and boxes of silver, piled up a piece of silver nearly a foot high on the square, and the height of this mountain of silver continued to increase, and the silver was piled up.
An old man stepped forward, knelt down, then got up and bowed with a fist to all the people. Turn around and kneel down again in front of the Ming Emperor, and then get up. Kneeling again, holding a scroll high, and the person next to him was carrying a huge horn, this thing is no longer exclusive to the government in the Ming Dynasty.
Just listen to the old man read:
Changping has a pit of 400,000, and the Qin people rejoice and the Zhao people are resentful. The wind blows the sand and the water does not flow, and the people who are happy for Chu are sorrowful.
The victory and defeat of the soldiers are often different, and they all fight when to finish. There will be heavenly officials who will be mighty, and they will not be eager to kill people.
I didn't feel guilty at the beginning of my life, but I was born after I was born. The two states are merged, and the righteousness is swept away by the mountains and rivers.
......, (the latter ones are in the testimonials, and they don't account for the number of words here.) (To be continued)
ps: As a minister, he deserves to die, and the division alliance under the city is ashamed. The intermittent return to the country to wash the sun, and Bai Ma did not dare to reproclaim.
After three years of hard work, he couldn't see Chang'an. It is not a forest of tigers, and it is not a day to be captured.
Thousands of ships went down to the corner of the sky, and the two males fought each other. In ancient times, there were no wars, and there were no sharp hedgehogs.
The rangers come and go day by day, holding each other for a month as a sandpiper clam for a month. The southerners want to help Kunlun, and the northerners want to swallow the Yellow River.
Once the sky was dark, the wind and rain were evil, and the artillery fire, thunder, and arrows fell. Who is male and female is divided in an instant, and the corpses are drifting and the blood is muddy.
Yesterday the south ship was full of cliffs, and today only the north ship is there. Last night, the drums sounded on both sides, and today the boats snored and slew.
The northern soldiers went home for 8,000 miles, and everyone liked to drink alcohol. Only the lonely minister was crying, and he didn't dare to cry to others.
The six dragons know where the sea is vast and the smoke is separated. I want to use the sword to kill the ministers, who is the gold belt?
