Chapter 698: Follow the Trend (1)

The old man is quite contradictory in his heart, and what he hesitates is not the trade-off between building roads and military spending, but how to persuade Hongqing - in the old man's opinion, although building roads is also a serious matter, in the final analysis, it is just the icing on the cake, early repair and late repair are not very important, but the war on the front line cannot be delayed, compared with the two, it is not surprising that the old man chose the latter, as for the donation, the old man has always loved face, unless there is no other choice, otherwise, the old man is unwilling to do this measure to disturb the people, Now, since it is possible to transfer silver from the Ministry of Industry to solve the shortage of military spending, the old man is very happy, the problem is that the matter involves Hongqing, the old man is not easy to make a decision, there is no other, the old man a few years ago but personally promised the Ministry of Industry to get silver will be used to control the river and repair the road, on the occasion of this court, it is not good to change the mouth, of course, this is not the key, the real scruple is that Hongqing is his secret successor, unless the last resort, the old man is unwilling to fold Hongqing's face.

"Is there anything else Qing'er has to say?"

The old man is a decisive person in the end, although he hesitated, but he soon made a decision, but he was not in a hurry to announce it, but asked in a calm voice.

Still? Yes, that's a chilling question!

Although the tone of the old man's question is peaceful, there are obviously hidden words inside, others may not be able to hear it, but Hongqing's IQ can be keenly aware of the strangeness, there is no doubt that the old man has made a decision in his heart, and this decision is really not good for Hongqing, there is no other, if Hongqing can't say a reason that makes the old man tempted, the Ministry of Industry and Silver are moved to military supplies is a sure thing.

What to do? If Hongqing really dares to propose, not to mention that the fourth master and the eighth master will inevitably attack with all their might, the old man will definitely not agree, in addition to provoking the old man's suspicion in vain, I am afraid that it will not be of any use, such a stupid thing, Hongqing will not do it, as for the road construction mentioned earlier, the old man asked the word "also", which means that such an excuse is no longer enough, and then insist on it, it can only be boring for himself, and if he wants to make the old man change his decisionThe question is where is this path, Hongqing really felt a little confused for a while.

"If you go back to Huang Mafa, my grandson thinks that it is really not advisable to increase the donation, and the military expenses are indeed indispensable, but according to my grandson's opinion, there are a few things that must be determined in advance before we can discuss the things that are missing."

Since the old man has a question, it is naturally impossible not to answer, although he has an undecided plan in his heart, Hongqing can only answer vaguely first.

"Oh? Qing'er has some opinions, but it doesn't hurt to say, I listen. ”

Although the old man's heart was already determined to transfer silver from the Ministry of Industry, but he was reluctant to force Hongqing, and when he heard that Hongqing no longer seemed to oppose the silver transfer, the old man couldn't help but be moved, and he really had the heart to listen to what Hongqing had to say, and raised his eyebrows, and he had gently encouraged Hongqing a few words.

"Huang Ma Fa Mingjian, the soldier saint has a cloud and said: soldiers, the major affairs of the country, the way of life and death, do not be careless, now our army has been on the expedition for more than a year, the bitter cold outside the plug, the logistics transfer operation and maintenance is difficult, if there is a lot of delay, I am afraid that there is a risk of fatigue of the veteran soldiers, therefore, the grandson thinks that the war must have a comprehensive consideration, hundreds of thousands of troops are protracted, it is not a good thing in the community, this article must be the fourteenth uncle to come up with a corresponding charter as soon as possible."

It is clear that the withdrawal of troops will not work, but it is okay to interpret it in another way, in this regard, in terms of Hongqing's eloquence, it is not very difficult, and it is also a big deal, the core, there is only one, that is, to turn around the corner to limit the old fourteen to give a timetable for ending the expedition.

"Well, go on."

The old man is the emperor on horseback, and he is very familiar with the military strategy, and he himself has also personally conquered Dzungar twice before and after, and he is no stranger to the difficulties of logistics and transfer, in fact, the reason why the first two expeditions outside the Saiwai did not completely destroy the Dzungar Khanate is precisely because the logistics supply cannot be continued, in view of this, the old man will not oppose Hongqing's mention, but he is not in a hurry to express his attitude on this matter, just quietly whispered, waved his hand, and motioned Hongqing to continue to state.

"Huang Ama, the ministers think that King Renjun's words are very inappropriate, since ancient times, soldiers are impermanent, water is impermanent, how can it be limited by the charter."

As soon as the old man's voice fell, before Hongqing could continue to elaborate, he saw that the tenth master had already spoken out in disgust.

"Emperor Ama Mingjian, the son thinks that what the tenth brother said is very true, the soldiers are dangerous and dangerous, and the improvisation is the way to win, and Dzungaria has always been the disaster of my Qing Dynasty, since the 30th year of Kangxi, it has been repeatedly chaotic, and it has become a big trend that cannot be dropped, and it must be exterminated as appropriate, even if it is protracted, it is not hesitated!"

As soon as the Tenth Master came out like this, the Ninth Master, who had always been anxious about Meng, was not far behind, and he also stood up, and echoed his words with burning words, and what he said was really quite insightful.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what the king of Dunjun said is right, I have conquered Dzungar in the number of dynasties, and I have repeatedly hit it hard, but I have never been able to get the full credit, why is it? Now, our economy is at its peak, the grain and straw are sufficient, and the poor are not outside the army's salary, if the Ministry of Industry has two silver for military needs, it is enough to support the needs of several years of conquest, it is a good opportunity to destroy its country, and it is necessary to make persistent efforts to prevent the ministry from having the possibility of resurgence. ”

As soon as the ninth master's voice fell, Nalan Yuxu also stood up, and he talked about it eloquently.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks it's the right time to quell the trouble of Dzungaria!"

"Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal!"

"Your Majesty, the spirit of the army should not be moved lightly, and it should be based on full merit."

……

On the other hand, the third master's side, at this time, still failed to react in time, and he didn't dare to stand up and argue with the other party for a while, so the rhythm of the court discussion and even the direction of the wind were undoubtedly controlled by the eight masters, and the shape was obviously unfavorable to Hongqing.

A bunch of bastards, if it's going to be a battle, then it's good to come!

In the face of the unfavorable situation, Hongqing not only did not panic, but calmed down, and in a flash, he already had a plan, but he did not rush to refute it, but indifferently let all the people on the side of the eighth master perform to their heart's content.

"Well, it's a good thing to be able to fight and settle the troubles, but I'm looking forward to it, there's no need to talk about it, Qing'er can go on and talk about it."

The old man has always cherished feathers, and he is unwilling to leave the matter of the border trouble to future generations to solve, at this point, the old man obviously agrees with the opinions of the tenth master and others, but he still gave Hongqing the opportunity to continue to expound his opinions, which is Hongqing, if he changed his words, the old man has made a decision on the spot.

"Huang Ma Fa Shengming, grandson thinks that the war is to be fought, maybe really have to be prepared for a protracted war, three years and five years, the front line of the army is inevitably tired, if so, fear of being plotted by the enemy, after all, there must be a charter of the round war, this must be the Ministry of War to submit the corresponding plan, and then can seek military supplies, and then, the fourth uncle has been empty in the treasury, how much silver is missing, after all, there must be a quasi-number of parties to discuss the vacancy, therefore, the grandson thinks that the matter of the silver of the Ministry of Labor, when the first two things have been settled, can be discussed, This grandson's shallow view is also, and he also asks the emperor to make a holy judgment. ”

Since the old man advocated fighting to the end, Hongqing was not good enough to talk more about the war, so he simply followed the old man's meaning and elaborated on it, what it means, there is only one one, and that is the strategy of delaying the army.

"Well, that's true, I'll take care of this matter by the head of Er."

Hearing this, Hongqing no longer seemed to object to the transfer of silver from the Ministry of Industry, and the old man was in a good mood, and after a little groaning, he handed over the matter of the head to Hongqing.

"Grandson leads the decree to thank you, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

Hongqing originally wanted to ask himself to handle this matter, but before he opened this mouth, the old man took the initiative to hand over the matter, and there was no reason not to hurry up, and he didn't wait for the fourth master, eighth master and others to express their opinions, Hongqing already knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to thank him with gratitude.

"Emperor Ama Mingjian, the matter of the front-line military needs cannot be delayed, and the ministers think that since the king of Renjun is on an errand, he should have a deadline."

Hongqing thanked him like this, and the eighth master couldn't hold his breath a little, so he stood up from the side and said loudly.

"Huang Ama, the ministers think that what the eighth brother said is very reasonable, if it is not limited to ten days, so as not to delay the military aircraft."

As soon as the eighth master came out, the fourth master was not to be left behind, and hurriedly stood up, and unceremoniously put a tight spell on Hongqing.

"Huang Ama, the ministers think that this is the way it should be, so as to ensure that everything is okay!"

"Well said, if you delay the military plane, it must not be fun!"

……

The ninth master, the tenth master and others naturally didn't want Hongqing to have a better time, and they all rushed out to express their attitude.

"What does Qing'er mean?"

In the old man's opinion, the time limit is naturally set, but how long should it be, and the old man can't say the exact date, which throws the problem to Hongqing.

"If you go back to Huang Ma Fa, ten days is enough, but you must have the full cooperation of the military department and the household department, and your grandson has the courage to implore Huang Ma Fa to give your grandson special authority."

Since the eighth master and others want to tighten the spell, Hongqing naturally refuses to show weakness, and in turn, they want to take advantage of this to seize power.

"Accurate!"

Hongqing's request is also normal, originally, even if you want the horse to run, you can't stop the horse from grazing, in this regard, the old man didn't think about it, and very generously agreed to Hongqing's request.
