Chapter 4: The New Monarch (6)

Because the situation of the Wa State is relatively special, it involves a question of common jurisdiction, that is, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Rites, all send officials to garrison and govern in the past, and the squires sent by the Ministry of Officials are basically the same as the nature of the governor of the Wa State; And those foreign legions of Korean origin, Ding Yi also let go of the squire sent by the Ministry of War, which is equivalent to Xiang Wenyao, the squire of the Ministry of War, who is the commander of the Japanese Military Region.

As for the Ministry of Rites, they are mainly in charge of the institutions of the Department of Education in the Japanese Kingdom, don't think that the rebellion in the Japanese Kingdom has nothing to do with the Ministry of Rites, after all, it will affect the business, and if the rebels smash the relevant green building, it will also be a loss, so they also have a very good opinion on the chaos in the Japanese Kingdom.

The Ministry of Industry is digging silver mines in the country, and of course it does not want to be chaotic; The waiter of the household department, the customs and taxes at various ports are cool, and he told him that the Japanese country is going to be chaotic, and the sea ships will not stop at the ports of the Japanese country in the future, can he agree?

"If there is no objection from the ministry, the East China Sea Fleet can return to the garrison." After Ding Yi arrived at the military department, he greeted the six Shangshu who had been waiting there for a long time, and directly said that he was ready to leave the mess behind. The East China Sea Fleet returned to the garrison, and on the side of the Japanese State, the Sixth Division could do whatever it wanted.

Hearing this, Ma Ang first stopped doing it: "Why is Rujin like this? "Even if he becomes a scholar, he can't help but not be nervous, because it's very simple, there is no water master in the imperial court! If it weren't for Ding Yi's preparation for the establishment of the fleet more than ten years ago, he didn't even know if Zheng He's charts and drawings of the big treasure ship would have been thrown away!

Because Zheng He went to the West seven times, he did not go back like Ding Yi, a boatload of silver and artworks, he was really a messenger of peace, extremely restrained, except for a time when the indigenous king wanted to seize the fleet and had to fight back, he basically really went to promote China's wealth. Therefore, the ministers of the court think that this navigation matter is not beneficial! I also have to keep paying the cost of repairing ships, rewarding many small feudal states, bearing the cost of small feudal states to pay tribute, etc., I feel that it is a complete loss, just for the emperor's face, so I feel that I can't do it.

As a result, the small warships of the Ming army's shallow coastal defense are still a little old-fashioned, but they really don't have to cross the sea.

If Ding Yi transfers the East China Sea Fleet back to the senior officer, how will the coastal defense of the Japanese State be handled? The ruined samurai of the Wa Kingdom will come out in small boats to rob and organize pirates! Is it a closed country in the Japanese country? What is the point of the officials and foreign troops sent to the Wa Kingdom? The reason why the six ministries will send officials is not for the sake of face.

Benefit! The bigwigs care about profits!

The Japanese state has a large number of silver mines, and the Ministry of Industry has sent officials to organize people to toss there, needless to say, a very stable benefit, but there must also be the East China Sea Fleet to escort them, otherwise how to transport it back to Daming by sea? The same is true for the customs duties collected by the Ministry of Household Affairs and the skin and meat money scraped off by the Ministry of Rites.

As soon as the East China Sea Fleet withdraws, where can the military headquarters afford to be safe on this sea route?

Therefore, Maang will not agree.

"How, what do you teach me?" Ding Yi spread out his hands, sat down with a smile, and waited for the charter of the six Shangshu.

Of course, Ding can lift the table, and he also has the strength to lift the table, the question is, doesn't the problem have to be solved after lifting the table? Kick these six books home, Ding someone kicked Zhu Jianshen and sat on the dragon chair again, will the world be the same? So in the end, we still have to figure out how to solve it.

"The garrison of the East China Sea Fleet thinks that it is just to let the heroes of the Japanese country fight, and they don't have to care about their life and death, it is really a mouse's eye, Ma Yingtu is also from a Jinshi, and he is ignorant of this!" Yao Kui, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, jumped out one by one and accused Ma Wensheng, the commander of the East China Sea Fleet, of being insightful.

His statement was extremely supported by the Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials, Households, and the Ministry of Industry, and what they said was roughly: "The Wa Kingdom was originally a barbarian, and then now the Ming Dynasty sent a long staff to educate and civilize, and when the other religion is tamed to tame the king, in order to get rid of barbarism, what is the benefit of the people?" Stop fighting for good! ”

Ding Yi understood it, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "The princes know my nature, let's order it directly." ”

"When the Japanese war is fought, there is not enough manpower on the other side of the mine; In war-torn places, foreign cargo ships are far away, and customs taxes cannot be raised; The people's livelihood is uneasy, and the operation of the Qinglou is naturally not good; Because of the war, the war reparations that have not been paid off, the officials don't know which daimyo to collect, this territory is this daimyo today, and another daimyo tomorrow, and the war reparations due cannot be collected at all; The military department feels that it is difficult to maintain law and order, probably that's it, right? ”

All the Shangshu were silent, just smiling at Ding Yi.

Because to put it thoroughly, it is quite embarrassing for these old-fashioned scholars.

But it cannot be denied that Ding Yi's problem is indeed clear.

"My opinion is to let them fight and leave them alone, but if his war harasses the garrison, he will directly destroy one side." Ding Yi didn't plan to go around in any circles with these court bigwigs, and said directly, "The basis for harassing the garrison and the Ming officials, one is interests; The other is interests. ”

"The first interest is short-term interests, such as properties and personnel belonging to Daming; The second interest is long-term interests, for example, there is a certain force, and there is a momentum to unify the Japanese state, which is not good for the Ming Dynasty. Of course, the way of involvement and meddling, the princes should have a more upright reason than me, and I will hide it here. ”

Occupying the moral high ground, the old-style scholars are very good at it, the so-called righteous teachers. Don't underestimate the word justice, when you have the moral high ground, your army will have a more natural momentum when it fights; And for the people of the occupied territories, it is easier for them to tame and submit.

"But I'll warn you." Before Ding made a circle, before he was about to resign, he specifically mentioned it, "No matter how obscure it is on the official document, it is good to let the officials who are guarding the country fully understand the meaning of the imperial court, especially the garrison of the East China Sea Fleet, Ma Yingtu is from a jinshi, and the chief of staff and other officers below are literate, but there are many allusions, but it is not necessarily, so it is best to send someone to send a person, and when you send the text jiàn, you should also explain the meaning of Jingchu, so as not to be when Ma Yingtu is in the big member and not in the Japanese country, The people below misread it, and it was a ridiculous mistake. ”

Wang Ao couldn't help nodding when he heard this: "As Jin said, it is the way of the old man to seek the country." This is not a joke, there is no search in this era, the speeches of scholars must be based on classics, and even some people are good at using rare classics, which are very remote allusions, the army came out of the night school, can read 3,000 Chinese characters, and it is no problem to write military newspaper orders, to figure out these allusions? That's!

Ding finished dealing with this side, and said to Liu Ji: "Get in the car and go to Tianjin." ”

Tianjin has already begun to lay railways, and the steam locomotives have made rapid progress after being given vulcanized rubber as a sealing gasket. Of course, it could have been faster, because Ding Yi had basically drawn the structure of the steam engine with an anatomical view, and what the master had to do was only to realize the things on the drawings within tolerance, and then how to disassemble the workpiece into an assembly line, so that those workers who had received simple training could work.

It was because after the Ministry of Industry of the two Guangxi provinces was handed over to the Ministry of Industry, it was a mess and the progress was delayed.

Before Yingzong's death, after the decree that the Ministry of Industry should still be under the jurisdiction of the Metropolitan Governor's Office of the Four Seas, those craftsmen and engineers who were forced to resign returned to their original posts, and only then did they restart the steam engine project, and the first locomotive was transported to Tianjin by sea two days ago.

Ding Yi sat in the four-wheeled carriage and exhaled a breath of turbidity, covering the glass window of the carriage with a layer of fog.

He rolled down the glass window of the carriage and looked at the roadbed that was being paved along the way, and there was infinite emotion in his heart.

As long as the railroad is built, the country may not need to work hard and desperately to move forward.

In fact, the efforts of more than ten years have yielded some results, at least now when it comes to going to sea and overseas, the court and the people are no longer resisting the general resistance of the past; Speaking of war, few people mention the tone of "Emperor Wu is not at ease", because everyone is in the voyage and in the war, and they have obtained dividends and benefits.

This kind of benefit is not to get a giraffe from Africa, Emperor Jin Xian said that it was a unicorn, and then took it as an auspicious fortune to be able to add the benefit of being an official and a knight. But ordinary people, even if there is no land reform in the north, with white potatoes, a little land at home, can basically make a living, there is really no land, and the landlord is hard, and he can still go to the county seat and the city to work.

The new term factory has begun to enter the lives of ordinary people.

The dumping behavior after the industrialization of the South has made the wealthy merchants in the North feel the crisis, and they have also begun to apply to the Metropolitan Governor's Office to buy patents and apply for outsourcing projects, such as the people outside the car window, who are shouting the trumpet and hitting the roadbed, is a certain businessman who has won the project, organized a team.

"Sir, the disciple received a letter from a familiar soldier in Egypt, saying that it was a former peasant in China, and when he went there, he was so angry that he went to the Egyptian market to buy things, even if he understood the local dialect, he insisted on forcing the stall owner to speak the official language of the Ming Dynasty, or he would go to the industrial and commercial bureau of the concession to complain about the locals discriminating against them." Liu Ji is a person who can do things, looking at Ding Yi looking at the teams paving the roadbed, with a smile on his face, he talked about the livelihood of the people overseas.

Ding Yi laughed when he heard this: "That's not an ordinary farmer, they crossed the Jinsha River back then, worked as an agricultural technician in Yunyuan, and also went to Java to teach the locals how to handle the crops. "Ding Yi didn't say it because they were the people of the Ming Dynasty and the people of China.

This is the result of his efforts for more than ten years.
