However, this is the Kannai.

In front of the Ning army, Mao Wenlong was contained, and there was a Denglai sailor in the back.

Even if Huang Taiji had the intention of making a detour to enter the customs, he did not dare to use the troops of the Eight Banners to attack Dengzhou and make a big gamble related to the fortunes of the country.

As for attacking across the sea - Houjin has no naval division, let alone a navy.

The formation of a sailor must be supported by strong skills.

Besides, there is Phi Island in front and Juehua in it, and Houjin, who is proud of riding and shooting, is barely going to the sea even if he is trying to scrape together.

In this Liaodong and Bohai Bay, it is also completely the world of the Ming Sailors.

The Apocalypse sent Yuan Keli to patrol Denglai was also intended to stabilize the Shandong Peninsula so that it would not be disturbed by the rebellious army that had retreated from Liaodong and the thieves who took advantage of the situation to disturb the land of Shandong, which was next to Gyeonggi.

At the same time, it can work together with the Guanning Army, just like a pair of pincers, the outer tongs build slaves, the inner Gongjing division, and the three guarantees the safety of the place, counting in one fell swoop.

Yuan Keli is worthy of being one of the few patriotic pillars in the late Ming Dynasty, a hero of the anti-gold resistance, in just five years, he suppressed the chaotic Denglai bullets, and whether it was military and political affairs or civil production, they were all well managed.

In Chongzhen's eyes, the only threat to this city is probably that after Yuan Keli resigned, the successor technical talent Sun Yuanhua was used by people with intentions because he was not good at politics, causing the Wuqiao Mutiny.

"Since Lao Tzu is here, we must not allow such history to be repeated!" Shigejin silently made up his mind.

"As long as Duke Yuan does not resign, as long as Mao Wenlong of Dongjiang Town is still alive, the Wuqiao Mutiny will never happen! Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming's generation never had the opportunity to bring my Huaxia cannon casting technique to surrender to Jin! ”

With Yuan Keli and the civil and military team of Dengzhou City, Chongzhen carried out a very detailed and ordinary approach to the city defense of Dengzhou.

While feeling Yuan Keli's talent, he sincerely expressed his admiration for Dengzhou's civil and military efforts, and happily made the idea of "this city unbreakable" public.

Although this guy is just a small garrison from Guanning, Liaodong, after all, his experience and ability are there, and he is good at treating stubborn diseases, so he can't accept it.

As a result, the apprehensive entourage of civil and military officers was really appreciated, and they were all relieved and happy.

Chongzhen actually doesn't like a group of officials to have fun on state affairs, because that is likely to indicate that this group of guys are vegetarian and don't do.

However, Denglai's bureaucratic system, under the leadership of Yuan Keli, obviously belongs to the category of doing practical things, so he also laughs very frankly.

He also took great pains to salute them, sincerely thanking them for their behavior of containing a large number of Houjin military forces for the Guanning army.

Especially in the window period when Sun Chengzong had just succeeded Wang Zaijin and passed through Liaodong.

At that time, the Guanning army had not been in force for a long time, and many fortresses and Ningyuan were still catching up with the progress, and the outside of Shanhaiguan was extremely dilapidated, and there was almost no ability to resist the Houjin Iron Cavalry.

If it weren't for Yuan Keli and Mao Wenlong, they would desperately contain on the flank, consolidate the sea frontier, and attack southern Liaoning.

And repeatedly fought for the Liaoning Peninsula and coastal land, which greatly consumed the strength and energy of the slave chieftains, and it is really difficult to say whether the Guanning defense line can be built.

When the civil and military officers of Dengzhou saw such words and deeds, they were immediately moved.

Some of them even burst into tears, leading this kid to be a confidant.

- No military salary, no merit, just fooling around like this day and day, the hearts of the babies are really bitter.

Well, now, someone can finally understand the babies, although there are only ten people, but there is a big yellow dog with a tongue sticking out to dissipate heat.

After all, in terms of containing the Houjin offensive, the Denglai Naval Division could only rank second in terms of geography and the type of army.

At this time, the east of the world was, after all, dominated by the army.

In particular, the Guanning army, under the leadership of Yuan Chonghuan, won the great victory of Ningyuan, bravely won the tragic victory of Juehua, and seized the entire section of the western Liaoning corridor, and firmly wedged it with the military city of Jinzhou.

This later army has leapt to the top of the existing army of the Ming Dynasty.

The soldier died for his confidant, and Chongzhen and his party were so far that they could be regarded as truly integrated into the Denglai system, which was somewhat resistant to the Guanning Army, which came later.

As for being attacked from within by Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming, it was finally a chain reaction that could only occur after Yuan Keli resigned and died, and Mao Wenlong was killed.

And those three shameless guys, who are still under the command of Phi Dao Mao Wenlong at this moment, are closely watching Houjin's movements, ready to poke him Xiaoju at any time.

If you say it rashly, it will only make the Guanning Army, the Phi Dao Army, and the Denglai Army, and the friendly forces of the three sides suspicious of each other, which will do all kinds of harm but not benefit. After all, at this time, Yuan Chonghuan was already very dissatisfied with Phi Dao Mao Wenlong's words and deeds.

Throughout the history of the late Ming Dynasty, Chongzhen felt that only when these three friendly forces worked together to help each other, and paid equal attention to the sea and land frontiers, could they effectively curb the threat of the Houjin to the Jiliao defense line, and make it difficult to make the fate of Emperor Chongzhen tired, which may not have happened to Huang Taiji.

Therefore, for these bad events that may happen in the future, Chongzhen will not even reveal the slightest tone, and will only silently try to change.

Sometimes when I think about it, it's quite difficult to travel through people. Although we know the trend of history, we must carefully weigh what we should do and what we should not do, what we should say and what we should not say.

The only thing that makes Chongzhen feel a little regretful is that most of the Denglai defenders, who are the Han of Shandong, are tall and thin, showing a state of malnutrition, and there are even many people with vegetables and yellow muscles and thin faces.

Once people have read a book, some will become more pedantic, some will become more shameless, and some will only become more upright.

Chongzhen feels that Yuan Chonghuan, who is very good at making things and making money, is infinitely close to the second category, while Yuan Keli completely belongs to the third category.

There is even a saying in Denglai officialdom - if the military salary is not enough, it will be made up.

It is impossible for the imperial court to even deduct the governor's salary, but the Ming officials' superficial salaries are really not enough, and Yuan Gong is a pedantic person, so what can a little bit of Lianglu do.

Even the latest batch of military salaries were issued only after Zhang Pan, who had traveled in Beijing to no avail, received the help of Zhongzhen, and fearlessly followed Wei Zhongxian's door.

Otherwise, Yuan Keli is still in office, but if he changes someone, there is a high probability of mutiny.

Chongzhen, who is well versed in psychology, can see that although Yuan Gong acquiesced to this matter on his face, he was extremely painful in his heart.

Chongzhen even guessed that it was probably because of this that Yuan Gong finally made up his mind to resign and go into hiding.

But there is really no way to do it, there are some urgent needs, and they have to be solved.

If a soldier can't even fill his stomach, if he can't even settle down with the elderly, wife and children at home, how can he protect his family and defend the country with peace of mind? How can you fight desperately with the fierce Jiannu?

At this moment, I am very eager for the early arrival of spring, so that the properly preserved sweet potato seeds can be scientifically planted, and the yield can be increased as much as possible, and a few more mouths and stomachs can be fed.

Although it is a coarse food, it is easy to regurgitate acid and fart if you eat too much.

However, "there is no idle land in the four seas, and the farmers are still starving to death", and the bitter haha who face the loess with their backs to the sky are limited by poverty, but they dare to have higher material pursuits.

If Gu Tongying and the others, who should have arrived in Jiangnan and settled down, they could try their best to transport a batch of sweet potatoes and corn, and even potatoes as promised.

Then, these high-yield crops in the south of the Yangtze River, where the land is fertile and the water source is abundant, can only reflect half of the value, and once they arrive in the Central Plains and take root in the north, they can reflect the value of ten points.

As for Xu Guangqi's attempt to use the bureaucratic landlords of Beizhili to promote the trial cultivation of these new crops in the Gyeonggi region, according to Chongzhen's secret investigation, it is simply difficult.

Master Xu is in his sixties, his energy is somewhat lacking, and he has been unable to find the planting tricks of new crops for a long time, and he cannot form a high yield.

Moreover, Chongzhen feels that this Confucian scholar, the most avant-garde literati in the Ming Dynasty, has studied his views on new crops for more than ten years, but he may not be higher than himself.

After all, many theories that are difficult to overcome will become common sense that are well known to the people after the practical test of time.

At least, Lord Xu didn't know that just one sweet potato, one potato, could grow a lot of green and lovely vine seedlings, and just one corn kernel could grow a strong corn seedling.

In the 22nd century, except for those in the big cities who think that cows are used to kill and eat meat, and watermelons are bastards sold in fruit stores, even half-grown children in the countryside know a lot because of their ears and eyes.

Hiding wisdom in the people and storing grain in technology is the best interpretation of this.

More and more frequent natural disasters and military disasters, higher and higher tenant rents, more and more fierce land annexation, and more and more noble people who do not care about the lives of the people.

The hard-working and kind-hearted cornerstone of the Ming Dynasty, the people who can carry boats and overturn boats, are so oppressed that they are about to lose their breath.

After all, for those powerful nobles who are accustomed to sucking the blood of the people, it is better to watch the blood bank full of the blood and sweat of the people overflow, and it is better to raise pigs and rats cheaply.

They are also unwilling to give up these profits that are about to overflow to the people who support them, and they are not willing to let even the slightest gap appear in the inventory.

Chongzhen's idea is very simple, instead of blushing and begging those who are full of food and brains to help grow new crops, it is better to spend energy on promoting food where it is most needed.

At that time, the "sweet potato prosperity" that is talked about in the history books will be greeted by the hard-working and kind people of the Ming Dynasty.

Instead of being prostrate on their feet by a group of wooden people, and raising their hands high, they humbly dedicated themselves to the Houjin nobles who had never produced anything, to achieve the so-called "prosperous Kangqian era".
