Chapter 562: Party Strife
Chatting is usually nonsense, but the more experienced people are, the more they are often the center of attention.
Between the various armies, after each introducing his place of origin and background, most of the time, the next thing is to listen to the of the captain.
When Lao Tzu was back then, how was he in Beijing, how did he enter the royal school, how did he catch thieves in Shandong, how did he take a sea ship to Zhejiang, and how did he feel when he took a sea boat?
This feeling can be great, at a glance, there is a sea on all sides, the sea and the sky, the mood is comfortable, that is, sitting on the boat, the lips will be chapped, the fresh water on the sea is not delicious, I can't take a bath for more than ten days, and I feel a little uncomfortable at the beginning.
After that, how to exterminate the Japanese people, what are the Japanese robbers, in the final analysis, they are just a group of outlaws, compared with the royal captains, they are still a rabble, what is a rabble, the rabble is unorganized, it looks murderous, but once the war is unfavorable for a long time, it begins to be discouraged.
The classic battles, in the mouths of the commanders, such as a number of treasures, the coolest one, is naturally the urn city of the widows, they have nowhere to escape, the brothers pushed over, keep a good array, come one by one to die, and finally forced into the corner, all in one net.
When those big-headed soldiers heard this, they only had envy.
In fact, they are all men, who don't want to be invincible, but the reality is like this, they are strong men, they can't eat enough, they can't wear warm clothes, when they are about to fight, they see that the situation is not right, the military attaches have already run away, and most of them are not willing to sell their lives.
But listening to the captains talk about their experiences, they have a wonderful feeling, as if they are in two worlds, in their world, everyone is not afraid of death, from the brigade officer to the ordinary captain. They are all brothers of their own family, everyone cries together, laughs together, practices together, and charges together; But what about their own world, in their own world, there are officials and soldiers, and there is an essential difference between officials and soldiers, and officials are officials. The officials eat and drink spicy, dance the whip in their hands, and the soldiers have yellow muscles and thin muscles, and they cower.
"Liu Wuchang, who is the person you respect the most?" Someone asked playfully.
Wu Chang's waist pole is straight. Although he was sitting, he had already developed a habit of maintaining such a sitting posture, and replied without hesitation: "Naturally, it is Xu Futai." ”
Everyone www.biquge.info the name and remembered the name.
Then the chief asked, "Who do you respect?" ”
The big soldiers in the army replied in unison: "We also respect Xu Futai." ”
"Nonsense, you don't know Xu Futai, what do you respect?"
"We respect Liu Wuchang. The people who Liu Wuchang respects are the people we respect, Liu Wuchang respects Xu Futai, and we naturally respect Xu Futai even more. ”
The captain couldn't help but stare at him. I also felt that it was very reasonable, and in my spare time, I naturally began to instill the soldiers of the Royal Academy one by one, and the big-headed soldiers who listened couldn't help but secretly speak.
It's time for the trumpet of rest to blow. Everyone turned off the lights and went to sleep.
Severe drills. Gradually, there is a little bit of a look, at the same time, the fast horse has arrived at the Tianjin Manufacturing Bureau, and the order of 10,000 guns has been delivered directly here, in addition to long knives, fire guns, and military uniforms of the new army in winter and summer, the required fire folds, kettles, straps, and military supplies, everything.
The official document of the governor of Zhejiang, Yamen, demanded that the new army must be met first, and it is best to deliver all the supplies within two months.
Ten thousand firearms, maybe a few years ago, I am afraid that without three or four years of effort, it will not be able to supply at all.
And now there are many workshops in Tianjin Manufacturing Bureau, and there are more than hundreds of workshops for manufacturing firecracker accessories, absorbing more than 100,000 craftsmen and apprentices, and large-scale manufacturing has gradually begun to appear some improvements in technology and manufacturing process methods.
The key to this is the difference between self-employed and large-scale production, in the past, the craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty also made firecrackers, but most of them were alone, from ironmaking to forging, almost all of them were completed by a few people, and now, efficiency is related to profits, hundreds of workshops but where there is a faster manufacturing method, it can be promoted immediately, so that the method of increasing efficiency and improving the process is almost every few months in the Tianjin Manufacturing Bureau to improve all of them, and the efficiency is increasing again and again, and the craftsmen are gradually becoming proficientAt the same time, there are workshops specializing in training 100 forging steel to supply materials for it at any time, and Tianjin Manufacturing Bureau has gradually been on the right track.
The purpose of the Zhejiang Governor Yamen is naturally very simple, the new army is no longer a simple short-term army, after all, it is the Zhejiang New Army, not the Xuanfu New Army, if it is Xuanfu, you can also get a few horse teams out, to maintain combat effectiveness, firecracker equipment is indispensable, and now the Tianjin Manufacturing Bureau has recruited Japanese craftsmen to improve the steelmaking process, and recruited Franco craftsmen to improve the process of firecrackers, plus some of the technical level of the Ming Dynasty itself, blended together, the accuracy of the firecracker, the rate of fire, and even the loading time, It is already much higher than the Furlong machine guns on the market and the guns equipped by Xuanfu.
The reorganization of the new army has begun to proceed step by step, Xu Qian, as Futai, naturally can't stay too long in Yuhang, and has already returned to Hangzhou, at the same time, Chun'an's Fang Xianfu is completely collapsed at this moment.
On the side of the imperial court, there has been hostility towards him, and a large number of officials are impeaching, even the cabinet side, which has also published a newspaper to apply for punishment, which means that it is obviously very obvious that his husband has become an outcast.
In the eyes of the princes of the court and the central government, Fang Xianfu is just a supporter of pseudo-learning, a cunning wallgrass.
At this time, it is useless to explain more, and the fall of Yang Biao is the last straw that crushed Fang Xianfu, the new army is already in the hands of Xu Qian, and the officials in Zhejiang are also Xu Qian's supporters, Xu Qian has an outstanding reputation among the people, if at this time, Fang Xianfu wants to do it, even if he is the governor, I am afraid that it will be more than lucky.
He sat in the hall, looked at the news of Ming Pao's reorganization of the new army, then put the newspaper down, and then sighed, looking at his friend thoughtfully.
"Mr. Zhou, you have already read the Ming Pao, the old man is now the general trend has gone, I really didn't expect that the official released the general system to the three provinces, but the result is this ending, so far, where to go, it seems to be ......"
Zhou Zhi took a deep breath and said, "My lord, why don't you retreat as advance, and take advantage of the current to simply retreat bravely?" ”
For example, when you encounter a certain hurdle that you can't get over, you will find a reason to resign, go home and study for two years, and when you see that the time is almost over, you can generally re-enter the court and regain your position.
Many ministers of the Ming Dynasty have experienced such a stage, such as Xie Qian, Xie Qian has already resigned, but the court has invited him to go out of the mountain for three days and two times, but Xie Qian has always refused, the reason for refusal may be really fame and fortune, but it is more likely that the time is wrong.
Zhou Yu already had a bad premonition, if this governor continued to do it, not only would he not be able to maintain his qualifications, but it would be a great obstacle to Dong Weng's future, and the longer he stayed, the more likely he would be ruined, and in this case, he could only take a step back.
Fang Xianfu shook his head: "No, it's easy to take a step back, but to enter, I'm afraid it's not easy, the current situation, at the time when the two tigers are fighting, the princes of the court and the central government are already tired of the old man, if these people in Zhejiang are suppressed in the future, the old man will definitely be classified as the same party." But these people in Zhejiang can't talk about friendship with the old man, and if they enter the court in the future, they naturally don't want the old man to go out of the mountains and have many things. Now it is no longer the time of the Zhengde Dynasty, but the situation of the old and new party contention. ”
When Fang Xianfu said about the Zhengde Dynasty, he meant that because Liu Jin and others were in power, many people chose to resign, and when Liu Jin was finished or the new monarch ascended the throne, these people were invited back to the court and entrusted with important tasks.
The so-called old and new party struggles refer to the party struggles in the Northern Song Dynasty, where the old and new parties headed by Sima Guang and Wang Anshi had a fierce conflict over their political views and the class interests they represented, and the old and new parties took turns to come to power.
But the question is that Fang Xianfu is neither the new party nor the old party, so what will happen? There is only one ending, that is, he will be forgotten, the new party doesn't like him, the old party doesn't like him, you are not a local tyrant, everyone doesn't be friends with you, so Fang Xianfu has a hunch that if he resigns this time, I'm afraid that he will have to recover again, and I'm afraid that he will never have a chance again.
From a magistrate in Guangxi to the governor of Zhejiang, every step is full of many hardships, so that Fang Xianfu can completely give up his previous efforts, which is absolutely impossible, since he can't give up, then he can't resign and die...... All of them will die in office.
He obviously hasn't realized until now that the struggle in the court is no longer a struggle between a certain faction and a certain faction, nor is it a struggle between a certain person and a certain person.
Although the party strife is still only in the beginning, it is almost foreseeable that in three or five years, the imperial court will fall into unparalleled turmoil.
For ordinary officials, they may not want to see this ending, but for those who are ambitious, this is not an opportunity.
It's just that which side to bet on?
