Chapter 705: Reaffirm the sea ban

It's called the sea ban, but it's actually for Dongyong.

No matter how wise Yang Tinghe is, he is also a traditional literati thinker, he saw that the sea ban was not very friendly to the people of Jiangnan, but he saw one more point, that is, the sea ban restricted Dongyong.

Even Yang Tinghe strongly persuaded Jiajing not to use troops against Dongyong. But to restrict Dongyong, Yang Tinghe still did it without hesitation.

After all, he is from Sichuan, not Jiangnan.

"Mr. Yang, have you ever read the military newspaper sent by the North Koreans?" Jiajing said.

Yang Tinghe said: "The minister has seen it. ”

Jiajing said: "Dongyong is so strong, I can hardly sleep. Please also sir teach me. ”

Jiajing doesn't even use me, but uses me.

Yang Tinghe said: "Wuzong is in chaos, and the country is in ruins. I really can't stand the soldiers, and although Dongyong is prosperous, it is because of the sea trade, and now His Royal Highness has cut off the sea trade, and has cut off the roots of Dongyong, and Dongyong will only be weaker day by day in the future, Your Majesty, why rush for a while? ”

Jiajing said: "But if the southeast coast is weak, all the thieves are like entering no one's land, if King Yong has a bad heart in the future, I am afraid that Jiangnan will not be used by the imperial court, Mr. as the first assistant, he will pin the safety of the country on the heart of King Yong, Mr. can trust King Yong, I can not be trusted." ”

Yang Tinghe said: "The minister doesn't dare, the rectification of the Jiangnan armament is also an urgent matter, and the veteran general of Yao Weibian can hand over this matter to him." It's just that the Southeast Sailor has been erosive for a long time, and I ask Your Majesty to be cautious and not to be in a hurry. Cause unforeseen disasters. ”

What Yang Tinghe said was the truth.

He didn't know Dongyong's threat, of course he knew, but he felt that Dongyong was just a trivial matter, and no matter how powerful Dongyong's army was, it could resist the border army.

And as long as the imperial court stands on the righteousness, wins the heart of the world, and has the manpower and material resources of the whole world, is it still afraid of Dongyong? Therefore, the importance of the world lies in the heart of the world and the heart of the world.

Therefore, the order of Yang Tinghe's handling of the affairs of the world is to sort out the internal affairs, and then deal with the affairs of Dongyong, which is more important than the outside.

And even if it is the embankment of Dongyong, it should be gentle, win over King Yong, and not let King Yong rebel, didn't King Yong tell Zhengde, doesn't he want to be the protector of the South China Sea? Give him, to rectify the Jiangnan troops, you need to take your time, step by step, and you can't be impatient, so that King Yong is uneasy, and when the time comes, there will be nothing in the world, and something will happen.

But Jiajing and Yang Tinghe are not the same idea at all.

From Jiajing's point of view, Yang Tinghe simply wanted to raise thieves for self-respect. He became more and more disgusted with Yang Tinghe, and became more and more worried that Yang Tinghe and King Yong might merge.

Thinking of this possibility, Jiajing's thoughts of killing Yang Tinghe became more and more intense.

Jiajing looked as if he trusted Yang Tinghe, and said, "Since Mr. Yang has an arrangement, I will listen to Mr. Yang." ”

Yang Tinghe did not feel Jiajing's thoughts about him, and Yang Tinghe was ready to resign. But it takes an opportunity.

After all, he is the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, not an ordinary official, and the resignation of the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty is a political event, not that he can resign if he resigns.

Moreover, Yang Tinghe may not have no love in his heart. So the matter dragged on.

Yang Tinghe immediately arranged to reward the soldiers, Zhang Jing and Yao Wei each had a reward not to mention, Zhang Jing was promoted several levels within a few months and became the political envoy of Zhejiang.

However, Yang Tinghe immediately issued a stern order, once again reiterating the ban on the sea. He was also asked to reorganize his coastal defenses and build warships.

Yao Wei led his troops to fight, and his execution was strong enough, and the coastal defense, which had been disturbed by the Japanese invaders, was once again tightly sealed.

For a time, the smuggling southeast family began to secretly connect with each other. Prepare to exert your strength to get Yao Gong away. Change someone who knows things, but Yao Wei has just won a big victory in the southeast, and for a while, he can't find a reason.

For the reconstruction of the water division, Yao Yan didn't know where to start.

After all, Yao Wei had been in the northwest and southwest, and he had experience in the cavalry on the prairie, and he also had experience in the Tusi in the ravine, but he had no experience in dealing with those enemies on the sea and how to deal with the sailors.

But inexperience doesn't mean you don't have to do things.

Xu Hai was enlightened, and in the absence of naval generals, he, a former pirate, was valued and became the target of key promotions, and was promoted several levels in a row for a while, becoming the commander of this Zhejiang naval division.

Xu Hai did not live up to Yao Ming's trust, but the construction plan of the sailor was brought up, which made Yao Wei have a toothache.

Without him, it's too expensive.

Xu Hai didn't have a lion open his mouth either. It's just according to Dongyong's specifications, of course, Xu Hai doesn't fully understand Dongyong's specifications, at least the Dongyong-type battleships that Dongyong has just entered service now, he doesn't know.

The plan he provided was a Daifuku ship plus a cannon.

Even this made Yao Yan have a toothache.

First of all, wood, after several years of procurement by Zhu Houhuang, the major official factories have left behind even if they are not used up, they are almost gone.

Now after a few timbers, the wood used for shipbuilding needs to be cut. But in Fujian, Zhejiang, there is big wood, is it good wood? Even if there is, it is deep in the mountains and old forests, and if you want to cut down trees, it is estimated that you must first build roads.

As soon as the road was built, all the money was spent in the sea.

And the wood I just got can't be used yet, so it has to be dried in the shade.

The difficulty in terms of wood is so big, but forget it, anyway, there are many things in the Ming Dynasty, and I can't find it here, Yao Wei is going to find it in other places, such as Liaodong Damu.

It can be solved anyway.

But the copper cannon, Yao Gong really can't solve it.

In ancient China, copper was not copper, it was money.

Where does Yao Qian have so much money? Zhejiang is a heavy tax area, and the fat is oily, but it can't tolerate such squeezing. The bronze cannon scheme was immediately rejected.

There was only an iron cannon.

But there are also problems with iron cannons, and the problems with iron cannons are not only problems of quality, but also problems of conscience.

Zhu Houhuang remembered very clearly that he shot a few craftsmen with only 300 shots, and some even committed suicide with their families. Why suicide?

Because Zhu Houhuang wanted to kill them, he couldn't do it.

The quality of China's iron ore is not good, it is almost a well-known thing, and it is impossible to manufacture qualified products under the system of craftsmen and craftsmen in the Ming Dynasty.

Unless you start from scratch, you won't be able to make a good product.

But artillery is not something else, this thing is too sensitive, the court official does not use the workshop of the court to make cannons, but starts a new stove and casts cannons by himself, what does he want to do?

Anyway, the Naxi officials of the imperial court will not measure the quality of firearms. They don't need it.

In desperation, Xu Hai paid Yao Gong a note, that is, to go to Dongyong to buy guns.

This ridiculous attention was actually passed by Yao Ling, and I don't know if Yao Gong really wants to sell cannons from Dongyong to supplement the Zhejiang Naval Division, or if he wants to test the level of Dongyong's cannon-making.

Anyway, as soon as Zhu Houhuang returned to Dongyong, he faced this matter.

Zhu Houhuang had a headache.

As for whether the artillery is take-out or not, Zhu Houhuang couldn't figure it out for a while.

At first, Zhu Houhuang didn't care much about artillery takeout, but he was bombarded by the artillery he sold many times, and Zhu Houhuang had to think about his own problems.

Yao Gong wanted to sell artillery, so he started anew on this issue.

Zhu Houhuang had no choice but to call people from the Shaofu, the military, and the Changshi Mansion over to discuss this issue.

"Artillery is a weapon of the country, and it must not be sold." Qi Jingtong was the first to speak and said: "It is a great shame that my Dongyong soldiers died under the cannons made by Dongyong Shaofu. Your Highness has already encountered such a thing in Japan, shouldn't you take it as a warning? In the past, it was a financial difficulty, and it was a last resort, so it was okay, but in the future, it must not be sold again. ”

The people in the military have an attitude towards artillery, that is, the more the merrier, so they have never opposed the artillery made by Dongyong instead of giving it to the army, but selling it.

It's just that this matter is a decision made by Zhu Houhuang, and they don't dare to overturn it easily. At this moment, Zhu Houhuang asked about this issue and immediately explained his attitude.

Of course, if there is opposition, there will be support. The strong opposition is the military, but the most supportive is the Shaofu. ()
