Chapter 806: A Subtle Change in Mentality
Zheng Jinhong, who won a complete victory, received Zheng Xunrui's order to rest on the spot for a month, and Zhao Danyu, the governor of Zhejiang, also received Zheng Xunrui's order, and cooperated with Zheng Jinhong to evacuate and settle the surrendered sergeants, the number of surrendered sergeants exceeded 100,000, this is a huge group, and if it is not handled well, it may cause big trouble, Zheng Xunrui's opinion, Zheng Jiajun absorbs about 20,000 to 30,000 of them, and the rest of the people are still in the same way as dealing with the rogues, some of them are stubborn and unscrupulous. was escorted to Huaibei to participate in the renovation of the Grand Canal.
At the same time, Zheng Xunrui ordered Zheng Xunrui to transfer 10,000 soldiers of the Zheng family army and quickly return to Nanjing.
After giving orders to Zheng Jinhong and Zhao Danyu, Zheng Xunrui once again made a decision that surprised everyone, he announced that Luo Changluo, the right attendant of Nanjing's household department, would be appointed as the governor of Jiangxi, and as for the governor of Jiangxi appointed by the imperial court, he was asked to return to the capital to report to the emperor and the imperial court, no matter what he said, he must leave Jiangxi.
At the same time, Zheng Xunrui ordered Guozijian to transfer more than 200 training personnel to follow Luo Changluo to take office, and these people will serve as prefects, prefectures, and counties in Jiangxi.
Nanjing Guozijian has trained thousands of scholars, these people have come from all over the country, especially Henan, Shanxi, Huguang, Sichuan, and Beizhili and other places of local officials, among which most of the local officials in Beizhili, Shanxi, and Henan and other places, in a desperate situation, most of them have gone through a lot of hardships to come to Nanzhili, among the trainees trained, there are also some Jinshi and Juren, and the person responsible for teaching scholars in Guozijian is Xu Wanghua and others.
Guozijian's training is not only to teach, but also to lead the trainers to visit and inspect various places in Nanzhili, on the one hand, to understand how the local government of Nanzhili handles government affairs, on the other hand, to focus on understanding the lives of the people, and the most important aspect is another aspect. That is to see how each region develops commerce and trade, and how it develops the local economy.
The shock caused by Guozijian's training is huge, and it can be said that for many scholars, this kind of training has subverted many previous views and opinions, and there must be people who are not convinced and take out the rules of their ancestors to justify. Some people even brought out Zhu Xi's views, opposing the vigorous development of commerce and trade from the viewpoint of preserving heavenly principles and destroying people's desires, and demanding compliance with the rules formulated by their ancestors, even if they gave up development, and even Chen Yutai, the priest of the country, partially supported these views.
Zheng Xunrui personally went to Guozijian to teach, and at the same time debated with many scholars, he put forward the view that everything is based on reality and practice is to test all truths, and at the same time explained the problem with the facts of the development of Nanzhili and other places, so that the vast majority of readers were convinced. The facts of the Ming Dynasty do illustrate this point, why there will be chaos in the north, why the imperial court is getting weaker and weaker, why the Nanzhili who implemented the new policy is getting richer and richer, the life of the common people is getting better and better, and there is no Diao people at all, and the local area is unusually stable, these facts can indeed explain a lot of things.
Guozijian is a place where scholars are trained. However, there have been some changes in the functions of the Nanjing Guozijian, with a focus on the training of officials. Moreover, it is to train officials who do things in a down-to-earth manner and accept the views of the New Deal, train qualified officials, and successively dispatch them to Nanzhili, Shaanxi, Zhejiang, Shandong, Huguang and Sichuan, mainly to Huguang and Sichuan.
Guozijian gathered all kinds of officials, scholars, and scholars, and abandoned the so-called teacher-student relationship theory in the imperial examination in the past, and strictly forbade the formation of parties and associations. All trainers who have such deeds will be dismissed and will never be used, even if you have great ability and profound knowledge.
Guozijian's training also emphasized the concepts of openness, fairness and justice, which of course could not be the subject of lectures. Zheng Xunrui wants to let the idea of openness, fairness and justice permeate the minds of every official, and even the minds of every scholar, but this is an unlikely thing, and the development of society has not yet reached that point.
Appointing Luo Changluo as the governor of Jiangxi, of course, it is impossible for Luo Changluo to go to Jiangxi with more than 200 officials who are ready to take office trained by the national superintendents, and those who go to Jiangxi with them are 10,000 soldiers of the Zheng family, and the leader of these 10,000 Zhengjia soldiers is Wang Xiaoer, the general of the Zheng family's army, and Wang Xiaoer is also about to become the chief soldier of Jiangxi.
With the escort of Zheng Jiajun, officials at all levels in Jiangxi did not dare to resist at all.
In fact, Zheng Xunrui did not make this decision on a whim, Jiangxi is close to Zhejiang, Nanzhili and Huguang and other places, and the impact is great, especially in the places controlled by Zheng Xunrui, the large adjustment of the officials' fortune has made many officials in Jiangxi very envious, and at the same time, the wealth of Nanzhili and other places has also made Jiangxi officials curious, in these years, there have been many Jiangxi officials who agree with and support Nanzhili's approach.
Therefore, Zheng Xunrui controlled Jiangxi at this time, and it should be said that it was a matter of course.
There are not many garrisons in Jiangxi, mainly the Weisho army, the combat effectiveness of the army is vulnerable, and it is by no means the opponent of the Zheng Jiajun, in fact, the Weisuo army is not capable of dealing with the Zheng Jiajun, when the Zhengjia army enters Jiangxi, they can only obediently surrender, accept the dismissal and resettlement.
Zheng Xunrui's order to Luo Changluo is also very clear, requiring Luo Changluo to stabilize the situation in Jiangxi within half a year and comprehensively promote the new policy in Jiangxi, and at the same time Zheng Xunrui asked Wang Xiaoer, the general soldier of Jiangxi, to assist Luo Changluo to stabilize the situation in Jiangxi, disband the existing guard army in Jiangxi, and if there is strong resistance, it must be ruthlessly suppressed.
Luo Changluo was ordered to be in danger and made a military order in front of Zheng Xunrui.
Luo Changluo was the first official to follow Zheng Xunrui, when Zheng Xunrui was the prefect of Yan'an, Luo Changluo was the governor of Suide Prefecture, and was one of the few Jinshi in the prefectures and counties under the jurisdiction of Yan'an Prefecture.
Zheng Xunrui is also very relieved of Luo Changluo.
The adjustment of the governor of Jiangxi, including the adjustment of officials at all levels, only caused huge fluctuations in Jiangxi, and did not attract much attention in the south, and even the provinces close to Jiangxi, such as Fujian and Guangdong, did not have much repercussions.
Zheng Xunrui did not stop at the adjustment of the governor of Jiangxi and the officials of Jiangxi Prefecture and county, he personally wrote letters to Zheng Zhilong, the general soldier of Fujian, the Duke of Qianguo, and Mu Tianbo, the general soldier of Yunnan, in accordance with the suggestions of Xu Wanghua, Yang Tingshu and others.
The reason why he wrote the letter in person was because Zheng Xunrui was not very satisfied with the letter drafted by Xu Wanghua and others, his tone was too soft, and the requirements were not particularly clear.
The letter written by Zheng Xunrui himself was clear and clear, and the requirements were very clear, that is, to tell Zheng Zhilong and Mu Tianbo what they needed to do next, if they did not meet the requirements, they would either leave Fujian and Yunnan on their own, or they would be surrounded and suppressed by Zheng Jiajun.
Zheng Xunrui's requirements can be said to be strict, Zheng Zhilong and Mu Tianbo must surrender to the Zheng family's army, they can't control any army, they want to come to Nanjing, they can serve as officials in Nanjing, but they can't return to Fujian and Yunnan and other places, and they must not have any contact with the local area, including their families must follow them to Nanjing, and the army under their command will be handed over to Zheng Jiajun to deal with and so on.
Such a request is impossible for ordinary people to accept.
It is said that Zheng Xunrui should not make such an excessive request, but Zheng Xunrui did not have the leisure to entangle with Zheng Zhilong, Mu Tianbo and others, he did not have so much time to slowly solve the problem, if there were great changes in the north and the south had not basically stabilized, then Zheng Xunrui would be a little annoyed by the situation.
Xu Wanghua, Yang Tingshu and others did not understand what Zheng Xunrui meant, and once raised objections to such a tough letter, Zheng Xunrui patiently explained to them, mainly to analyze the situation in the north is likely to be chaotic in a short period of time, and the south must stabilize in a short period of time, so that Zheng Jiajun can really put most of the troops into the north and calm the situation in the north, so as to truly unify the world of the Ming Dynasty.
Xu Wanghua and Yang Tingshu reluctantly accepted Zheng Xunrui's opinion, but they still had objections, they believed that the southern Zhili, Zhejiang, Shandong, Jiangxi and other places in the south were stabilized, including Huguang and Sichuan, and the Zheng family army had enough to rely on, and it was completely safe to conquer the north, and there was no need for the entire south to be stabilized.
It should be said that Xu Wanghua and Yang Tingshu's suggestions are feasible and correct, nothing can be perfect, Zheng Xunrui's approach is a bit too much to pursue perfection, and his mind has been put on the whole world, not limited to a certain place, which will make him very tired, and some things cannot be done well.
After several discussions and debates, even Zhou Yanru, who presided over the governance of the Grand Canal in Huaibei, also made a special trip back to Nanjing to participate in this discussion, Zhou Yanru also supported Xu Wanghua and Yang Tingshu, believing that it takes time for the south to be completely stable, and it is not possible to blindly adopt a strong pressure posture, Zheng Zhilong and Mu Tianbo have been operating in the local area for many years, have a solid foundation, and completely adopt the method of military offensive, which may cause unnecessary fluctuations.
Zheng Xunrui finally accepted everyone's suggestion and revised the letter to Zheng Zhilong and Mu Tianbo, he also realized his own impatience and perfectionism, governing such a big place, some things really can't be rushed, and if you want to hurry, this is the simplest truth, if you want all parts of the south to be like Nanzhili, it is impossible, and this unbalanced development situation cannot be completely changed after hundreds of years, let alone now.
