Chapter 335: Quick Knife Cuts Through the Mess
Liu Daxia controlled the banknote customs in one fell swoop by means of a surprise attack, and another advantage was that he could clamp down on merchants.
Smuggling also has to be supplied by land merchants, and land goods generally have to go through Beiguan, as long as Beiguan is cut off like this, then this group of businessmen will have to be in a hurry.
Coupled with the officials of the three divisions of Zhejiang and the Ministry of Households, how many people have received benefits from it?
They hadn't been prepared before, but they didn't expect Liu Daxia to dare to move the banknotes! But the old fox only moved once, but not completely.
Now that the banknote customs have been controlled, they can only write a letter to report it, and let the people in the DPRK impeach one or two, and they don't dare to force Liu Daxia at all.
Ma Wensheng is worthy of being immersed in Zhejiang for many years, and he is still very clear about the affairs of this acre and three points of land in Zhejiang, and he only came up with an idea, so Liu Daxia took the initiative.
And Liu Daxia didn't dare to delay more, so he directly took office as a new official with three fires, thinking of cutting through the mess quickly and burning the second fire.
The Hangzhou Mansion, the officials of the three divisions of Zhejiang and the garrison generals all gathered together, waiting for the governor to raise the account.
Since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, after the remnants of Meng Yuanhai and the remnants of Zhang Shicheng were exterminated, the highest military rank stationed in Zhejiang was the deputy general, and there were two generals.
The adjutant general is a military position, which is probably equivalent to the regular army level in later generations, and is one level lower than the chief military officer of the town guard.
The three of them were the most panicked at the moment, because after all, the matter was still a military matter, and the three of them would inevitably be questioned.
"Your Excellency the Governor has arrived!" With a shout outside the hall, the officials sitting in the hall stood up one after another.
Liu Daxia didn't sleep all night, and only squinted for a while while waiting for the officials, but he was still in good spirits at the moment.
After he stepped into the hall, the hall full of civil and military officers immediately shouted in unison: "I have seen the Governor!"
"No need to be polite, please take a seat!"
"It's all here, aren't you? Who is the lieutenant general? After sitting down, Liu Daxia asked.
Quanli stood up: "Humble duty!"
"Well, this time the people occupy Shuangyu, have you found out any military information?"
"This ...... The humble only knew that the Huang people attacked the Shuangyu pirates and entered Shuangyu, and their warships once entered the waters of Haining! ”
Liu Daxia smiled coldly: "Do you know the grain stocks of Zhejiang's troops, ordnance, and official warehouses in various places?"
"Humble ...... Humble position, this ...... Zhejiang's guard offices, the number of soldiers is 5,600, and the lowly posts are only known, and there are almost no full guards! "Quan Li said embarrassedly.
"Then if you want to expel the Tyrants, what is your plan?"
After thinking about it, he said stubbornly: "The people are just overseas barbarians, and they are entrenched in Shuangyu, and they are bound to not be able to last long, as long as the soldiers of the Great Tomorrow fight hard, they can win the battle!"
"What a battle to win!"
Liu Daxia slapped the table and said: "The people have all hit the gate of Zhejiang, and you still don't know what to ask three questions!"
Bang - Quanli knelt down and defended: "My lord, it is true that military affairs in various places have been relaxed for a long time, and Zhejiang only has the coast, and there are maritime alerts from time to time......"
"Shut up!" Liu Daxia said angrily: "As a deputy general, the prime minister of Zhejiang military affairs, you don't think about suppressing pirates and water thieves, so you will cause trouble!" When asked about military affairs today, I don't know if you are the deputy general of Zhejiang, so you don't need to know the soldiers? ”
"Order, take Quanli from his post and go to prison, and escort him to Beijing!"
"Total ...... Your Excellency the Governor, you have been wronged! Wronged! …… Spare your life! "I was amazed.
didn't struggle much, and was escorted down by the soldiers brought by Liu Daxia, the governor with soldiers in hand, is so unreasonable!
Seeing this, the rest of the civil and military forces were silent one by one for an instant, just sitting calmly, and watched this drama of killing a hundred people.
Liu Daxia glanced at it, and then arched his hand: "Colleagues, I am deeply favored by the emperor and are the governors of the three provinces, not to embarrass you!"
It's really rampant, and he has already stretched out his hand to Zhejiang! The previous time he swallowed Ryukyu, he knew his wolf ambition! At that time, the Holy Lord had already issued an order a few years ago to let the coastal provinces rectify their military affairs, but since the decree was issued, there has been little response! ”
And now, the people are directly entrenched on Shuangyu Island, and their prosperity and arrogance can be seen! If it is allowed to occupy Shuangyu Island, it will inevitably gain an inch, and its ships will reach the city of Hangzhou at that time!
What's more, the Huang people have been abducting good people in my Ming Dynasty, if they are not curbed, within five years, the Huang people are afraid that they will be even bigger, and when the time comes, how should the entire southeast half of the wall deal with themselves? ”
"So at the moment, although Shuangyu is determined to be used for both suppression and appeasement, according to my understanding of the Huang people, they are greedy and mercenary, and they will not easily withdraw from Shuangyu Island! In order to deter the people, the top priority in Zhejiang at the moment is to prepare for war! ”
"All guards must replenish the soldiers' salaries as soon as possible to prevent sudden attacks by the trolls! The second is to gather troops for training, our army lacks drills, and if we don't practice for a few months, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with the soldiers! The second is the salary, training and gathering troops without pay, the emperor has a will, the treasury in the treasury of Hangzhou, immediately sealed, all used to reorganize the army. ”
Zhejiang's civil and military forces all looked at each other, and many of them had only heard of the Eastern Qin, and knew that the title of the Yellow People was rumored to be the East Qin people's many faces, so they had a contemptuous name for them.
However, the imperial court still made them feel that although they occupied Shuangyu Island, it was not necessarily more difficult to deal with than the previous pirates.
"Your Excellency the Governor, why should these barbarians be so knowledgeable from overseas? Give them some of their possessions, and then give them an order to explain the benefits and disadvantages, and they will surely go away! According to the inspector, Li Zan couldn't help but say.
Liu Daxia glanced at him and said coldly: "You are an official in Zhejiang, but you don't know as well as the old man's understanding of the people!" To tell you the truth, the people have towering ships, and they also have sharp firearms!
Have you ever seen such a barbarian? If it has a thief's heart, the southeast half of the wall will be turned upside down in an instant! This time, even if he does not use troops against the people, the old man will rectify the military affairs of the three provinces, so it can be regarded as a safe move! ”
"Then Lord Governor, how long will it take to prepare for the Quelling of the Dead?" Lin Fu also asked.
"It takes at least two or three months to gather troops, at least four or five months to train troops, and it takes a few months to raise food and grass for ships! There is no year, and the old man does not dare to move lightly! ”
The officials present were all worried when they heard this, and they would have to be troubled for a year if it took a year of tug-of-war! This gathering of troops is easy to say, but when troops from all over the country enter Zhejiang, there will inevitably be looting, and the cost of military salaries is also a lot of money.
Just oppose it at this time? They really don't dare, and they can only wait until "public resentment boils" before their impeachment can be effective.
"Colleagues, rest assured, the old man will order a strict military discipline, if there is a misfortune to the people, the old man will never let go! As for other affairs in Zhejiang, the old man will not interfere too much, and only hopes that you can work together to fight together! Liu Daxia naturally knew their worries.
The civil and military officers present hurriedly got up and said a few words together.
Liu Daxia saw that the time was coming, and immediately took out an order.
In order to cope with the shortage of troops in Zhejiang, it was decided to transfer 5,000 troops from Jiangxi and 7,000 troops from Nanzhili in advance. And transfer the Southern Jiangxi General Army Jin Ze to lead the military affairs!
This surprised the officials present again, and what surprised them was not the number of troops transferred, but the transfer of the general army of Nanjiang!
In the Ming Dynasty, only Jiangxi had two general soldiers in the southeast, one was the Nanchang general army and the other was the Southern Jiangxi general army.
These commander-in-chief officers are one level higher than the adjutant generals, equivalent to the commander-in-chief of the provincial-level military districts, and are in charge of the defense and use of troops in the province.
And the most important is the Southern Jiangxi General Army! The reason is that there are many bandits on the border of Ganzhou.
In order to ensure the smooth passage between the north and the south, the general army of Southern Jiangxi had to suppress bandits almost every year.
In another time and space, it was necessary to wait for Wang Yangming to appear, and the banditry in Nangan was finally quelled.
Therefore, the general army of Nanjiang must be much more experienced in military affairs than the deputy general of Zhejiang, who has been in peace for a long time.
