Hanson grunted and returned to the tent with a dark face, and the adjutant trotted to follow Hanson's annoyed sigh, pacing and sighing with his hands behind his back in the empty tent with a worried expression.

"Your Excellency the Governor, this is just a bunch of barbarians, so don't worry too much." The adjutant comforted the poor governor.

Johansen said: "I am not worried about this, although as a bait, we will be in danger, but I am more worried that this time we have paid such a heavy price, but we may not be able to get enough returns, according to the meaning of General Zhang Youde, it seems that the British do not want a piece of the Indian continent." ”

The adjutant kept his mouth shut, for politics, he didn't get involved too much, and he didn't understand it very well, at least in terms of the official propaganda of the two countries, both the Ming and the British declared each other to be traditional and unbreakable allies, at least on the surface, and the dirty adjutant behind his back also heard a lot, but for the military, the adjutant didn't want to think too badly.

But Johansen didn't think so, he muttered a few words, and then waved his hand: "You go out and supervise the work of those lazy guys, according to the estimation of the Ming intelligence agency, in three hours, the enemy will have a cavalry arrive here." ”

"Yes, Your Excellency." The adjutant hesitated any longer and walked out.

The East Indies were in the tropics, and the midday sun was particularly scorching, so many British soldiers could only hide in narrow trenches, taking advantage of the remaining shade to escape the hot weather.

Suddenly, the hoofs of the rainstorm sounded, and the soldiers clinging to the trench clearly felt the earth tremble slightly, followed by the shouts of warning, and everyone woke up from their sleep, and quickly poked out their muskets.

Pandit came with more than 10,000 mixed cavalry, and the prelude to no confrontation or attack was the sleeping lion, and it had to be crushed before it woke up.

Thundered...... The horse's hooves spread wildly and quickly approached the Han camp.

"Forward. Kill any yellow-skinned brute. Pandey's voice was extremely loud. He wielded his sword. In the midst of the torrent of cavalry.

The horsemen and elephant cavalry were boiling with blood and regained their courage. The demon is asleep now. Then there is nothing to scruple about.

"Bang bang ......" the smoke rises. Heads in top hats suddenly appeared on the horizon. An officer shouted in a language that Indians had never heard before. Then there was a dazzling swing of the bayonet.

In an instant, a dozen knights in front of him fell off their horses without warning. The horse still galloped forward, but the knight rested here.

The cavalry formation in the middle of the charge couldn't help but stagnate. Maybe it's a pause, and the dead and wounded are nothing. The only thing that shocked them was that the other party was already prepared and well-guarded. It's a trap. A lure of hungry wolves. in front of them. Where are the hunters? around their land. Where are herds of hounds ambushed?

Pandit was already in turmoil at the moment. He began to think. He's the hunter. racked his brains to set up a precision trap to hunt down the sleeping lion hunters. And now it seems. The hunter is not him. And he's just a team of elk that have strayed into a trap by pretending to be clever.

Pandit had even forgotten that this was a rapidly changing battlefield, that he had forgotten his mission, that he understood, that it was over, that it was completely over.

"Go ahead, crush them." Pandit still yelled, there is no way back now, since this is the case, then let's kill the fish and break the net.

"Kill." The cavalry was obviously not too confident, and even deserters had already begun to appear, but fortunately, the prince charged into battle, and there was no large-scale rout.

………

After penetrating deep into the East Indian border, King Sunk began to feel uneasy, so far, he has not seen a single Han Chinese, and unlike the last sneak attack, there is not even a single patrolling Indian soldier, what does this mean? The army was still advancing, but the scouts of the Sunk King brought one disturbing news after another, and after a short delay, the Sunk King still decided to continue his advance, and he had no way to retreat.

The army of Sunks scattered all over the mountains continued to advance, and it was obviously extremely troublesome to restrain this group of ignorant peasants, and the commanders and commanders of all sizes and thousands of commanders with their families' private soldiers whipped the forcibly recruited men with whips like grazing.

Suddenly, a black shadow suddenly appeared on the horizon directly ahead, and the army in front suddenly stopped, causing a commotion in the Chinese army in the rear, and the sound of abuse was endless.

"Can anyone tell me what's going on?" The Sunk King didn't know what was going on ahead and asked in a loud voice.

After a quarter of an hour, a panicked commander finally staggered over: "King, there is a Ming army in front, they ...... They seem to have been waiting for us for a long time. ”

"What? How many people are there? King Sunk's eyelids jumped and he asked.

"Thirty thousand, at least thirty thousand, all Han army." The commander replied.

30,000? King Sunk's heart was cold, his most elite Marati cavalry and elephant cavalry were annihilated by the 30,000 elite Han army, and now there were nearly 200,000 people on his left and right, but King Sunk knew that as long as those strange firecrackers sounded, at least half of them would drop their wooden sticks, battle axes, and rattan cards and scatter in all directions.

"They had no cavalry, everyone obeyed orders and retreated in an orderly manner." King Sunk had no choice, he did not want to be scattered by the rout, he would rather retreat, the enemy had no cavalry, and it was impossible to pursue, as long as there was no large-scale rout, these Han people did not dare to rush over.

"Look, what's that?" There was another commotion in the back, and then someone shouted: "Go and tell the king that there is a Han army in the rear." ”

Directly behind the Sunk army, at some point, a black team suddenly drilled out of the forests on both sides, and they started fighting, and the flag of the colonial army was fluttering in the wind, and Xu Dachang, who was riding on a tall horse, was full of murderous intent, and the Sikh officers were constantly ordering the soldiers to line up.

"Spread the order of the general army, the whole army marches in formation, but anyone who resists will not be killed." Xu Dachang ordered loudly.

The Indian soldiers who lined up the long snake began to march forward with a firecracker, although it was not neat, but it was also quite decent, the firearm in his hand was a knockout product of the Ming Dynasty three years ago, and the continuous improvement of the continuous firecracker, every three to five years, the imperial court would issue an order for a batch of new weapons to the arsenal, and the eliminated weapons would either be resold to the Ottomans, or they would be equipped with colonial legions, so the firearms of the colonial legions were mixed

The new repeating cymbals that were eliminated in the previous two years also included the models of the cymbals developed seven or eight years ago, and some of them were breech-loading Dutch muskets, but for them it was clear that these weapons were sufficient.

"Forward." The Haidu Army in front of them obviously began to move, and the two major armies lined up in a long snake formation and slowly moved closer to the Sunk army in the center......

Since the prince entered the camp training, he immediately attracted the attention of the Di newspaper, and the major Di newspapers have published the front page, each commenting on the approval, and naturally there are also words revealing the opposition to the kind of polemic and flooded, and now the text debate has become a landscape in the city of Nanjing. In order to refute the point of view of psychology, the scholars of science will naturally consult some classics about the study of the mind, and will also involve some knowledge about scientific manufacturing, which does not look at the unknown, but at a glance, there is really a group of scholars of science who are interested in scientific manufacturing, and unconsciously, the science of science has gradually changed, some people put forward the slogan of new science, the emergence of new science is no longer confined to the ideas of Shinong industry and commerce, and the same as psychology, all recognize the contribution of science and industry to society, but still conservative the concept of science in terms of political opinions, coupled with the promotion of Neo-Confucianism, in fact, the traditional science has disappeared, after all, the reason why scholars are called scholars, the fundamental reason is the birth of the imperial examination, and the emperor advocated Neo-Confucianism, in the fundamental imperial examination system has been greatly reformed, if you stick to the rules, then only with a set of four books even the qualification for the examination, the express provisions of the imperial examination is that you must pass a certain assessment in the law, manufacturing, literature and art, medicine and other disciplines in order to carry out the imperial examination, and the imperial examination is not to be admitted to the official do, but to start by the small officialsand slowly climb.

In this way, traditional thinking has undergone great changes under the social changes and Zhu Jun's reforms.

In front of Zhu Jun is a dense list, the names on the list can be described as shocking, this list contains the cabinet, the six ministries, the nine Qing, and even many provinces of local officials, all the officials are filled in with a red pen and an ink pen respectively, the officials of the red pen represent the heart party, and the officials of the ink pen represent the party.

Hu Yan stood aside, all the attendants in the palace, including Xiao Guizi, retreated, Zhu Jun flipped through the roster back and forth, and finally raised his head: "But is it true?" ”

Hu Yan hurriedly said: "There was a clue two years ago, the matter is serious, and Weichen didn't dare to report it, so he sent someone to investigate it secretly, and now there is enough evidence." ”

The formation of a party is the most serious event in the past dynasties, and once the ministers who joined the friends party are discovered, they will either cut off their heads or give them a career, which is absolutely not tolerated for the ruler, and what makes Zhu Jun depressed is that the names recorded in this list are too wide, which makes Zhu Jun panic all of a sudden.

"Hu Aiqing, in your opinion, how to solve it at this time?" Jun's tone was flat, and he didn't get angry, since the Ming Dynasty, there have been endless cases of forming a party, and there has never been a break, and he is surprised if no one has formed a party.

Hu Yan lowered his head and hurriedly said, "I don't dare to say it." ”

He really didn't dare to say that although Beizhen Fu was equal to the pro-army of the imperial court, and the commander of Beizhen Fu was the emperor's most trusted eagle dog, but no matter who was in this list, it was extremely difficult to mess with, and the matter was too big, unless the emperor made a decision, he would never dare to participate in it.

Zhu Jun half-closed his eyes, leaned back on the Luan chair and stopped talking, knowing that it was absolutely impossible to eliminate the alliances, even if they were eradicated by bloody and violent means now, it would not take ten years, and they would resurge, and they would be more hidden.

"I know." Zhu Jun stretched his waist, he had already made up his mind in his heart and regained his vitality.

"Then the minister will retire." Hu Yan didn't dare to stay longer, his hunch was that this seemingly careless emperor would launch a great storm up and down the government and the opposition in a few days, and he would still hide far away, and continue to do a good job of spying, plotting rebellion, and supervising the promising work.

"By the way, go and invite the two scholars in Beijing together, I have something to say." At the end of his life, Zhu Jun lightly instructed.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

There was silence in the Qinzheng Palace, Zhu Jun was silent with a smile, and the two scholars of His Royal Highness looked at the roster sent by Hu Yan with solemn expressions, and no one dared to speak.

"Wechen is guilty." First of all, Mu Tianbo, who had finished reading the roster, had already pleaded guilty with a ashamed face.

"Wechen is guilty." Zhou Mubai also knelt down.

Zhu Jun pretended to be surprised: "What? What is the crime of the two Aiqing? ”

Mu Tianbo was already in a cold sweat, and a drop of cold sweat dripped down the tip of his nose, as for the so-called Li Party, he had some contact, after all, many ministers are good on weekdays, and their political views are similar, so it is common for them to get closer, this kind of thing is not big or small, when the Ming Dynasty was the only one to form a party, Zhu Yuanzhang went down to kill more than 30,000 people. It has lasted for ten years, and he naturally believes that the current emperor will not be so ruthless, but it is difficult to guarantee that he will be charged with any crime.

Zhou Mubai seemed a lot calmer, he had practiced his ability to observe words and expressions, and he glanced at the emperor's expression, but he really didn't see any signs of Long Yan's anger, so he was not panicked, just lowered his head, and looked like he was confessing.

Zhu Jun really didn't get angry, just smiled lightly: "Get up, there is nothing wrong with forming a party, what I hate is forming a party for personal gain, forming a party to seek rebellion, and party strife, I know that you are still dedicated to public service, get up and speak." ”

Mu Tianbo and Zhou Mubai got up with a worried face, sat on the brocade pier respectively, and heard Zhu Jun's voice say: "I don't want to be harsh on you, you are also human, surrounded by colleagues, and there are also protégés and former officials, if you don't get your clothes wet, I'm afraid it will be too commendable." ”

Mu Tianbo said: "Weichen is ashamed. ”

Zhu Jun shook his head: "You don't have to be ashamed, it is human nature to form a party, and this is the truth that people are divided into groups." Speaking of this, Zhu Jun's words changed: "But if anyone wants to form a party for personal gain, or provoke a party dispute, I will never spare it." ”

"Wechen is always cautious

Zhou Mubai felt that the emperor meant something, especially the last sentence that provoked the party, Zhou Mubai was a habitual offender, and he was obviously warning himself.

"I've been thinking that it's inevitable that the courtiers will have political disagreements, and Emperor Taizu can't suppress the wanton killing back then, what is the reason? Because human nature has made it happen, what I am thinking now is, if I am a hundred years later, will my Ming Dynasty fall into party strife? Zhu Jun's tone is solemn, any entrepreneur hopes that his foundation can be eternal, can last for thousands of years, Zhu Jun is not without consideration for this point: "If officials do not agree with each other, it is easy to invite friends to form a party to suppress opponents, which is a very common thing since the past dynasties." ”

"Since I can't curb the party struggle, why don't we make the party struggle public?"

"Public?" Mu Tianbo was stunned, but Zhou Mubai was constantly thinking and digesting the emperor's meaning.

"Yes, openness, since you love to form a party, then I will give you the right to be righteous, but every official who joins the party must be filed with the Department of Suppression, and the party you form must also be approved by me." Zhu Jun thought along the train of thought: "Only in this way, although the two parties can argue with each other about political opinions, they can openly put forward them for discussion in the court. ”

The more Zhu Jun thinks about it, the more painful it is, the cabinet system is ready-made, but the so-called democracy is impossible, but the establishment of the framework of the political party, the party struggle to the foreground is also a way, for Zhu Jun, the terrible is not the controversy of the court, not those things that can be seen, but the behemoth hidden in the dark, but always control the pattern of the court, this is the real scourge of imperial power.

As long as the friends are on the table, the court can still find ways to control them, and those who form a party are in full view, in order to win a good image, naturally they don't dare to attack them, since they can't eliminate them, Zhu Jun's method simply controls them.

"What does the emperor mean?" Mu Tianbo still felt that he didn't quite understand in the clouds, and he didn't even know if the emperor was saying the opposite in a hurry, after all, forming a party is an antonym in this era.

Zhu Jun said calmly: "I have thought about it, I want to approve the formation of a party, one is the heart party, the other is the management party, and the other parties do not need to approve it. ”

What Zhu Jun wants to create is; In fact, the so-called democratic countries in later generations are divided into two kinds, one is the benign political party, which can also be said to be democratic centralism, the so-called democratic centralism, in fact, it is just the interest groups above the political parties to force the concentration between the parties, such as the United States, which is known as the model of democracy, on the surface, the competition between the two parties is very happy, but in fact the two parties are just one party, and the party programs, goals, and interests between the two parties are completely identical in many aspects of national policy. Both sides can agree on different points of view, but they can also succumb to the entire history of the United States for the sake of interests, no matter who comes to power between the two parties, no one party has ever provoked a demonstration against the other party, their rule is that we compete with each other, and when one side becomes the victor, the opposition party can also exist as an auxiliary party, I will not launch supporters against you, I will not see your jokes on major national policies, I will not stumble you in Congress, the so-called two parties, In fact, it is just one party, because there is still an invisible hand above the two parties that puts shackles on them.

And those vicious friends who are crowned by monkeys are simply the shame of democracy, those monsters who are packed one by one with the title of a democratic country full of gloss, one by one open their mouths for democracy, and they are free to keep their mouths closed, today I will dismantle your platform, tomorrow you will dismantle my Taiwan, there will never be the interests of the country in their eyes, in the difficult moment of the country, they can make a big noise, entangle the opponents on a large scale, and march against the ruling party, today it is a million people choking, tomorrow it will be a million people choking, when the rulers make a mistake in governance, they will not kindly point out the shortcomings, Offering help, but thinking that the opportunity has come, cynicism, constantly provoking the people against the ruling party, and constantly proposing all kinds of so-called 'good immediately' and 'surpassing so-and-so country within five years'' What is more, the so-called opposition parties have become opposition parties, oppose for the sake of opposition, constantly incite confrontation, impose ideology, and use deceptive means to breed trouble, and after coming to power, they will not think about how to develop, but will continue to use resources to build momentum, all the policies of their predecessors, and destroy the continuation of the economic development of the entire country.

"For the record, I don't see any so-called opposition parties in some of the great European countries, which are almost everywhere in more than 150 poor democracies. So far, no developing democracy has entered the ranks of developed countries, and don't mention Eastern Europe, which was a developed country 50 years ago.

In short, this so-called opposition democracy is very strange, why developed countries don't have it, it's very puzzling, is there a master to interpret it. 》

Since this is the case, Zhu Jun is not polite, the court is divided into two parties, which can also play a role in mutual checks and balances, and encircling their party program is Zhu Jun's top priority, first of all, their goals must be the same, in order to maintain the Ming royal family and work hard, for the livelihood of the people and so on, secondly, we must immediately formulate laws restricting the two parties, and finally, it is natural to start the Jinyi Guard to supervise.

Regarding the future Ming system, the younger brother borrowed a lot of 'isms' both the two-party system and the centralized ** system, in fact, the younger brother has read a lot of books because of the system problems, and has also checked a lot of information, and has studied the three systems today, and found that it is better to combine the ** plus a small amount of democracy, at least the future generations will not be my business, and the democracy of the United States is not ** at the beginning? At the time of the founding of the country, only white people with property were allowed to vote, and later poor whites, women, and blacks were joined by the nation. I calculated that most of the white people who immigrated to the United States at that time were poor, and the real riches were the rich men on the Mayflower. But I think if everyone in the United States had been able to vote at that time, the United States would have been a bigger version of Mexico or South Africa now.
