The historical Azhen River Guard, in February of the sixth year of Yongle, when 56 people, including the Jurchen savage leader Jia Lingha and Huo Vulture, came to the court to guard it with their residence, and set up 11 guards such as Foduo Bald River at the same time.

From the point of view of ownership, Azhen Hewei belongs to a part of Jianzhou Wei, so it has no qualification to pay tribute, only the qualification to trade in Liaodong Mashi.

And for this trade qualification, Ah Zhen Hewei needs to pay tribute to Jianzhou Wei, and he is also bullied in the horse market.

The border army of the Ming Dynasty is even more lacking in virtue and smoking, and often uses the mutual market to deceive tribes from all over the country to come and cut off their heads, and one can accidentally put his life in the horse market.

Su Jianghai, Yang Jilu and others were killed by the Ming border army.

It's just that even if it's so dangerous, these tribes have to go to the horse market.

Because they have been kidnapped by the goods of the Ming Dynasty! Without Daming's tea and rhubarb, they will not be able to live.

In the Ming Dynasty, tea has always been an important means of controlling the Us-Tibetan, Mongol tribes, and Jurchen tribes, and the tea control has been played until the Qing Dynasty.

If it weren't for the success of bringing Britain to grow tea in India, I am afraid that the tea sanctions of the Qing Dynasty would have been in effect.

In addition, the most coveted by the nomadic tribes around Daming is the iron pot! Daming's control over the iron pot is also very strict.

In the horse market, there are enough tea, salt and cloth, but the iron pot is extremely difficult to buy, and the procedures are cumbersome and complicated.

In order to prevent the sold iron pots from being re-fired into weapons and armor, Daming even kept selling Luo pots and Guang pots that were difficult to re-furnace.

It's just that there is a big misunderstanding here, because both the Mongols and the Jurchens are reluctant to melt the iron pot, after all, it is too expensive! It's so hard to buy!

If the herdsmen do not have an iron pot, their lives will be extremely inconvenient, and even when the Mongols get married, the man will be ridiculed if he does not have an iron pot.

Therefore, the ban on iron pots in the Ming Dynasty simply fattened the smugglers and border army generals, because the horse market does not go into the treasury and is at the disposal of the local border army!

…………

Three days later, Wu Tulin looked at the big ship and went away, and his small eyes revealed indelible ecstasy.

Shaman bless! Shaman bless! He cried out in his heart.

He couldn't believe that this was actually true, that someone would really bring him tea and iron pots from the sea.

"Chief, can this group of people really come to sea?" A teenager looked at the big ship in a daze, and even shrank back in fear.

Wu Tulin turned his head to look at him: "Are you scared?" Afraid of something you don't know, or something you don't know? ”

The young man nodded: "Their ship doesn't look like people can build it, it's too ...... It's too tall, and so is the strange cloth on the boat! They...... Are they using evil powers, as the shaman said? ”

Wu Tulin snorted coldly, and suddenly kicked the young man in the chest angrily, and said viciously: "Even if it is an evil demon, it is an evil demon who can bring tea and iron pots!"

As he spoke, he shouted to the young man behind him, and immediately someone rushed into the village on horseback.

After they had killed all the men, they arrested all the women and children.

Wu Tulin looked at it coldly, and after doing all this, he left fifty people behind and brought all the women and children back to the tribe.

He could not tolerate anyone getting involved in the trade. No one is allowed to leak the news.

So he went all the way back to the tribe, and he sent people to sweep all the way, and found that any small tribes that had come into contact with people from overseas had to be eliminated one by one.

As a person who has been to the horse market in Liaodong, he clearly knows how much wealth this trade will bring!

It was as if he had seen the rise of the Horde!

…………

Everyone is working hard for the strength of the tribe, Daming, Jingshi.

After two months of fighting, the first replica breech 75 gun was forged.

It uses the forging method commonly used in the Ming Dynasty, that is, it is rolled into a cannon barrel with iron, and then the iron hoop is used on the outside one by one.

After forging, it becomes one. It's just that on the outside, it's like bamboo.

Liu Daxia, who was in charge of supervising the construction, personally asked the soldiers to try to practice this cannon.

As a result, under the same amount of gunpowder, the cannon of Eastern Qin was about half farther than that of the Ming Dynasty.

When increasing the amount of gunpowder, the cannon imitated by the Ming Dynasty was also the first to explode.

But it is just such a cannon, but it is already much stronger than the Ming Dynasty's general gun and bowl mouth gun.

After all, in the process of imitation, Liu Daxia asked the craftsman to directly copy the caliber and barrel length.

Although I don't know the ratio of times to diameter, it is definitely more reasonable than the firearms before the Ming Dynasty.

The result of this imitation made Liu Daxia very frustrated, and he wanted to use a new casting method to try it out, and finally chose the clay mold method.

The telescope also failed, because the craftsman accidentally broke one of the lenses when he took it apart.

No matter how hard the craftsman tries to put it together, it can't make that lens whole again. Liu Daxia was furious, and the craftsman's head had already moved.

As for the plate armor, it is even more difficult to imitate than the cannon, and each piece of armor has to be hammered out one by one, which makes Liu Daxia's mood even heavier.

At the beginning of the month, Liu Daxia, who was worried and angry.

directly read out the Ten Evils of Military Administration compiled at the end of last year in front of the Manchu Dynasty ministers.

Historically, this recital was played in June of the fifteenth year of Hongzhi, and Liu Daxia asked to resign and return to his hometown at the same time.

It's just that this time because of the matter of Dongqin, he didn't mention the matter of resigning. Moreover, a lot of content has been added to the ten evils of military administration.

He not only cited the hardships of the northern and southern armies and the land and water routes that took turns on duty to transport grain, as well as the situation of the border troops being tired and exhausted, and the border generals being deducted, but also listed the current situation of the poor and miserable military households in the garrison and the first war.

This piece of music is frightening, but it is not because of the situation, but because Liu Daxia stabbed the hornet's nest!

The erosion of the border army and the erosion of the guard is known to all ministers, and Emperor Hongzhi also knows it.

But they really can't come up with a good solution, and they don't want to offend these stubborn diseases in various places until they have to.

After all, the imperial court has no money, and many times it can only be a stable word first, and recuperation with the people runs through the entire Hongzhi Dynasty.

Therefore, although Wang Heng seconded the proposal, he asked the emperor to rectify the military affairs in the southeast to prevent the wolf ambitions of the Eastern Qin.

However, more ministers still said that the delay in the handling of this matter cannot be handled lightly.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at this piece with a frown, and asked for a long time: "Qing said before that the people of the world are poor. There has been a standing law for expropriation since the ancestors, why is this the case now? ”

Liu Daxia was annoyed recently, and directly stiffened his neck and said, "That is to say, it was not levied according to the usual law." If you take Duo wood from Guangxi every year, and take incense and medicine from Guangdong, the cost is calculated in tens of thousands, and the rest can be imagined. ”

Whoa-the civil officials of the Manchu Dynasty all looked sideways, and Liu Daxia actually wanted to get involved in the matter of paying taxes.

Shoufu Li Dongyang hurriedly played a round and said: "Lord Liu's loyalty can be learned, but this matter still needs to be discussed!"

Emperor Hongzhi sighed and changed the topic: "Then the guards in various places, are they really rotten so much?"

Liu Daxia said directly: "When the minister was an official in Guangdong, he saw that the military households were as poor as the common people."

Emperor Hongzhi asked again: "If you have monthly food and you have food for travel, why will you be poor?"

"His handsome deduct more than half, how can he not be poor?"

Emperor Hongzhi burst into tears: "I have been in power for so long, and I don't know how to be a man and a king because the army and people in the world are poor!"

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty knelt down, and several major ministers also began to cry and plead guilty.

…………

Qianqing Palace.

Liu Daxia, who was in the next dynasty, was left behind by Emperor Hongzhi, and Hongzhi didn't care about the actions in the court.

At this moment, the monarch and the ministers were opposite, but Liu Daxia was ashamed, and the harmed Emperor Hongzhi had to shed a few tears.

"Did you hear any news from Dongqin again?" Emperor Hongji asked.

Liu Daxia hesitated, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen requests to open the arms trade with Eastern Qin!"

"Huh?" Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "Is it because the Eastern Qin cannon is not going well?"

Liu Daxia arched his hand and said: "If you don't seek to be the same as the cannon of the Eastern Qin, then the cannon made by Weichen is already better than the cannon in the Ming army!"

"That being the case, the secretary should step up the restraint and strive for an early success, instead of making noise in the court."

Liu Daxia had a headache, and he said sadly: "Your Majesty, it's not just a cannon, if you don't buy a telescope again, I'm afraid it won't be able to be made!" This plate armor is also, if it is forged as we do today, I don't know if it can succeed in the Year of the Monkey! ”

"Wei Chen has figured it out, even if he buys cannons, plate armor, and binoculars from Dongqin, it will not be considered a loss of my prestige! After all, what we really built is not as good as Dong Qin, it is better to buy it first to deal with one or two, and after thorough consideration, with the material resources and manpower of my Ming Dynasty, it will definitely be better than Dong Qin! ”

Emperor Hongzhi stood up, looked at Liu Daxia helplessly and said, "Do you think I don't understand? But if you want to buy it, you have to approve the silver in the treasury, which makes the Manchu civil and military know, can they agree? ”

Liu Daxia thought for a while and asked, "Your Majesty, do you know about Hufu riding and shooting?"

"Of course I know!"

"Since you know, why can't Your Majesty be King Zhao Wuling? King Wuling of Zhao is a master of Yi long skills to control the country, so Zhao can expand the land for thousands of miles, and the national strength is strong! Now that the Eastern Qin Dynasty is prosperous, why can't we master the long skills of the Ming Dynasty to control the Huang? ”

Emperor Hongzhi was silent for a while: "But if the Manchu Dynasty knows about it...... It'......"

"Your Majesty!" Liu Daxia glanced at it and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty doesn't come forward, and this silver can also be released without the treasury, but it has to be cleverly named!" If Your Majesty trusts Wechen, you can hand it over to Wechen! ”

Emperor Hongzhi's eyes lit up, and he immediately felt that this matter was feasible! It's just that if this matter happens in the east window, then Liu Daxia will inevitably have to bear the black pot for the emperor.

Thinking of this, his heart warmed, and he felt that Daming still had honest and loyal ministers.

"That's it...... Just Yiqing! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Liu Daxia hurriedly thanked him.
