Chapter 634: Asking for Papers

Zhu Houwei smiled after thinking for a while: "Tomorrow, let these sixty-eight scholars come to Fengtian Hall and test their knowledge."

Zhang Jimeng was stunned, and then said: "The minister obeys the order, and I will arrange someone to notify you later."

In fact, not only Zhang Jimeng, but also the corners of the other important ministers twitched when they heard the emperor's arrangement.

What kind of place is the temple of Fengtian!

That's the Golden Luang Palace!

That was the place where the Manchu ministers met in court, and scholars without official status generally only had one chance to enter the Jinluan Hall before they went out.

This opportunity is the palace examination, and the tribute students who can come to participate in the palace examination can basically be regarded as officials.

Now the emperor directly wants to meet these qualified scholars in the Jinluan Palace, which is really a great honor for these scholars.

However, no matter how great the honor is, it is not in line with the etiquette system, but the etiquette system ......

If it weren't for the Jiajing Dynasty, or the first two years of the Jiajing Dynasty, then the ministers would still be able to argue with the emperor on the basis of reason, and even quarrel with the emperor, but in the face of the current Jiajing Emperor, hehe...... Or forget it......

The current Emperor Jiajing must have made up his mind, and it is almost impossible to change it.

However, in any case, the Manchu Dynasty also had to bear it, perhaps it was precisely because of the emperor's strength to override public opinion and the dictatorship of the cadres that there would be today's Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, this kind of trivial matter should not be opened, so as not to hurt the harmony and tacit understanding between him and the emperor.

"Yan Aiqing."

"The minister is here."

"How's the preparation?"

Yan Song replied solemnly: "Back to Your Majesty, the military department asked the Tongzhou Military Factory to make ordnance day and night three months ago, according to Your Majesty's decision, it should be able to prepare 3,000 artillery pieces of various types, 200,000 of the latest muskets, ammunition is not counted, and the rest such as hot air balloons, swords, guns and armor are enough, as for the food baggage, it has now been transported to Yancheng, which is enough to support the 200,000 army for half a year."

"Not bad." Zhu Houwei is very satisfied, this is a capable minister who does practical things!

Daming's military reserves have always been insufficient, and there is no way to do it, after all, it is necessary to supply military regions around the country and supply the daily training of large battalions on the outskirts of Beijing, which is an extremely terrifying number in itself, plus King Ding's trip to the Americas took away 250,000 troops at one time, almost emptying the inventory of military factories.

Therefore, in the past two years, almost all the ordnance produced by the military factories has not continued to be supplied to the military regions, and only a small amount of ammunition has been supplied to maintain peacetime training, and the munitions produced are mainly supplied to the large battalions in the suburbs of Beijing for training.

Three months ago, Zhu Houwei set a time limit for the conquest of Japan and asked the Ministry of National Defense to supervise and handle all arms matters.

As for whether the weight of grain is only enough for half a year, it will be too little, there is no problem at all, and it can even be said that it is too much......

This crusade against the Japanese State, Zhu Houwei did not intend to show mercy to his subordinates, he just wanted to kill the Japanese thieves and slaughter them, naturally he didn't need to think about anything else, just to raise the war with war, not to mention that the Ming Dynasty had a terrifying sea power, and the transportation baggage could reach any coast of the Japanese State anytime and anywhere, for fear of running out of food? That's a joke.

"The Wa country, the evil neighbor of China, the cruel and perverse state, its people are incorruptible and shameless, cunning and aggressive, miserly and lewd, extravagant and hypocritical, cunning and rampant, once used the field of projectiles, poured the country's troops, and conquered the Central Plains......

The thieves of the Wa Kingdom have absorbed the culture of China for thousands of years, but they have become ungrateful and frenzied neighbors.

The Ming Dynasty is inclusive, not to worry about the small country of Fanbang, but this vicious dog has been disrespectful to the Ming Dynasty for more than 100 years, since the Hongwu Dynasty has been less than two hundred years, this vicious dog killed my Ming envoys, thieves invaded my coast, killed my army and civilians accumulated tens of thousands, all kinds of crimes have been exhausted, full of evil!

As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor of all peoples, and the lord of the community, I should carry a three-foot sword to conquer the Japanese kingdom and kill every thief's head!

The Ming army, invincible, invincible, should use the bullet of Huaxia to penetrate the wolf ambition of the despicable slaves, and use the sword of the blade to cut down this group of lowly Fusang clowns......"

The emperor said impassionedly, and several important ministers were already dumbfounded.

"Your Majesty...... This is ......"

"Ask for a letter!"

The ministers understood...... To be honest, this article is average, if it is written by any of the ministers present, it is estimated that the style can be ten times stronger!

But this is written by the emperor himself, so it is the most wonderful essay in the world!

But the emperor hates Japan, and he doesn't want to fake the hands of his courtiers, so the ministers naturally have nothing to say, they can't say that the emperor is the emperor, you can't write it, the writing is too good, why don't we write it for you.

Isn't that just a slap in the face of the emperor, and whether he wants to live anymore......

"Tell the world about this article!"

"Your Ministers obey!"

Announcing to the world and publishing in a newspaper are two different concepts, and of course publishing in a newspaper can have the same effect, but the meaning is completely different.

To announce to the world, how to announce it, is to send this document to the local government, and then the local government copy it several times and paste it at the door of each yamen, and send someone to read and explain it, so as to achieve the result that the subjects of the world know.

But in fact? Originally, what could be announced was the county government, but if it was far away, or the content of the notice was unfavorable to the magistrate, it was not certain whether the magistrate would take out the notice.

But now it is different, now the notice is not sent to the local government, the place of issuance is the money bank, the tax department and the newspaper office, and the local money bank, tax department and newspaper office are responsible for transmitting the latest decisions of the imperial court to the ordinary people, and it goes directly to the towns and villages.

In this way, the probability of the people being blinded by the government can be reduced to negligible, after all, it is a tripartite alliance, the money bank represents the royal family, the tax department represents the government, and the newspaper represents the people.

Over the years, the legal notices, the new tax policies and the major decisions of the imperial court have all been announced to the world in this way, and the people have obtained specific news, and it is naturally not easy to be exploited by the government in the name of ingenuity.

Zhu Houwei chatted with several important ministers for a while, and then let a few people leave, and his eyes fell on the map of Japan on the imperial case.

War is not child's play, even if the Ming army has an overwhelming advantage over the miscellaneous fish of the Japanese Kingdom, Zhu Houwei will not have the slightest contempt and carelessness, because this will be his first and only personal expedition, he will destroy that despicable nation with his own hands, and he wants a complete victory!

And this battle to destroy the country will also become the best interpretation of Emperor Jiajing's martial arts!
