Chapter 459: A Navy Is Necessary

However, Yang Houzhao's proposal was collectively "rejected" by the cabinet the next day.

It's not because of pirates, now the coastal areas are not peaceful, who dares to rashly open the sea market.

Yang Tinghe asked Yang Houzhao, although what he said was not so straightforward, but it meant that.

"What if the lifting of the maritime ban causes the Japanese invade the coastal areas and then invade the Central Plains?"

At that time, the people will definitely say that the emperor is tossing blindly, and Yang Houzhao does not want to bear this crime.

The first battle failed, and Yang Houzhao was sullen all day.

But because he heard about the sea ban, Li Zhao had been recording the things that he had an impression of lifting the sea ban in his mind that day, so he didn't pay attention to Yang Houzhao.

At night, the little emperor lay on the bed and pondered, without any other thoughts, and Li Zhao noticed something unusual.

She asked, "Long live the Lord who doesn't tell me anything on his mind now?" Why is you alone in a daze? ”

Yang Houzhao turned around and looked at Li Zhao, his wife's clear eyes seemed to be able to speak, which always made people feel smart and smart, and they wanted to talk to her about something.

But Ah Zhao understands the tax reform, and it is impossible to even understand the lifting of the sea ban, right?

Yang Houzhao's tone was listless, and said: "Telling you will only make you annoyed, and you can't help." ”

Oops, you know you can't help before you say it?

Li Zhao put his lover's shoulder, rested his chin on it, and winked at him: "Long live the lord." ”

Her coquettish tone was affectionate, and Yang Houzhao had the softest ears to her, where was she still reserved, and told all the cold things.

It turned out that it didn't pass, Li Zhao thought of this result, but he didn't expect the officials to be so conservative and refuse without thinking.

She pretended to think, her eyes rolled, and then she looked at Yang Houzhao: "Long live the lord, is it too simple for the concubine to think?" If we are afraid of a Japanese invasion, why don't we build a navy?

With such an army, it can defend the country at sea and protect normal trade at sea, so why not? ”

Build a navy?

Yang Houzhao didn't know if it was feasible or not, but in his bones he was a person who liked the Jin Ge Iron Horse, and the navy came to protect the people and trade along the coast......

His eyes gradually lit up under the light, and then he excitedly took Li Zhao's hand: "No matter how difficult it is, I have to stick to this proposal." ”

Li Zhao's hand also used some strength to encourage him, in order not to fall behind and be beaten, it was necessary to build a naval team, which was also the real reason why she supported the opening of the sea ban.

The Mongols in the northwest really can't become a climate, and the island countries are the real enemies of the dynasty.

****

Building a navy is a light thing to say, but don't forget that the army costs money, and fighting a war burns money.

What was the military system of the dynasty? Tuntian.

The army owns the land for itself, and then in wartime there is an enemy on one side, and King Qin of the Eight Directions supports it.

But what is the emperor going to build, an independent navy?

That is, this army has no fields, and what do they eat without fields? If you want to pay the army, where will the salary come from? The silver of the treasury.

What about the silver in the treasury?

Have you forgotten that the treasury has always been empty and there is no money, so this naval force can be built?

Again, how can it be called a navy, to sail at sea, and what to sail?

Boat.

Where did the imperial court come from?

So in the early dynasty, when Yang Houzhao mentioned this proposal, there was an unbelievable emotion on the faces of the cabinet and the celebrant supervisor, how did the emperor come up with it?

It's not good to be self-sufficient now, and you have to do things that are hard to achieve.

Yang Tinghe gave Yang Houzhao these reasons to "top" back.

That is, he does not agree.

Yang Hou looked at the suspicious expressions on everyone's faces, his expression became heavier and heavier, and he brought Li Yangdong up.

Li Yangdong was originally standing at the forefront, and said busily: "Weichen is here." ”

Yang Houzhao asked, "Master Li, do you also think that I am messing around, I am joking?"

Over the years, I have had confrontations with the Japanese Kou, how many losses have I suffered, and why? It's because the pirates are thieves every day, but we are in the inland, but we can only be thieves, but there is no thief prevention every day.

When the army was transferred, the pirates ran away, and the property and lives of the coastal people could not be recovered.

If we have an army at sea, the duty is to patrol the coastal areas, this is not only to guard against thieves every day, but also when we see the Japanese at sea, we can directly start a war, and we can't hit the inland at all, isn't that good?

I think it's so necessary, so you can't even figure out such a simple reason? Do you want to disagree too? ”

For the first time, the little emperor raised a series of questions as seriously as an adult, which shocked Li Yangdong's heart, he looked up at the little emperor in slight surprise, his calm eyes and solemn face really seemed to have grown up in a trance.

He opened his mouth,

Yang Houzhao asked again: "Scholars cultivate themselves and rule the country and the world, Lord Li, are you satisfied with your political achievements now?"

Can you guarantee that you will be passed down through the ages?

Could it be that you have been a child prodigy since you were a child, and your belly full of learning, but you don't want to do something for this country, for the people, and for your loyal emperor?

Are you really willing, to be a do-nothing first assistant, when the time comes, there are only a few strokes in the history books, no merit and no fault, is this really your ideal? ”

It turned out to be an aggressive word, and it also used the agitation method.

At this time, the emperor was more like a sharp sword that had opened the box and leaked out, but the sword had not yet been unsheathed, but it was already foreseeable that it would be radiant and sharp when it was unsheathed.

After this questioning, the people in the hall were all stupid, and they looked at him blankly, silent.

After a long time of not seeing each other, this tranquility was broken by Li Yangdong.

At this time, Li Yangdong's face was calm, but his heart was already tumbling with turbulent waves.

Every sentence of the little emperor's words was like a hook, hooking his new house.

If a person lives for a lifetime, he must leave a green name, so that he will not be in vain.

He didn't want to be like a few predecessors, without merit or fault, or most of the records in the history books were power disputes, he wanted a different record.

Like Yu Qian, upright and resolute, defending Beijing.

That's his ideal.

So now in the peaceful years, he is helping the little emperor to change the country, why not.

He blurted out, "The establishment of a navy can be discussed." ”

Yang Tinghe reacted that Lord Shoufu was moved by the emperor's words, and of course he couldn't refute it directly.

He said, "My lord, but we don't have ships or soldiers." ”

Li Yangdong said: "On shipbuilding, there is a traitor Chen Youliang, he didn't fight well, but the ship was built very well, the drawings of the warships of Zheng Gong's Western Ocean should still be in the military department, feasible, I hope the rats haven't eaten out yet." ”
