The reason why Zhu Houzhao sent six first-class guards was because of the rebellion after the new strategy of the imperial court, and he would definitely be killed with a thunderous blow.

If the adhesion is continuous and ticking, I don't know how troublesome it will be later.

This is also the reason why Yang Shangyi was angry after he won first and then lost, and the rest of the towns were watching, the official army was so weak, it was inevitable that Xiao Xiao would have a heart of disobedience.

Fortunately, the imperial court dispatched troops to stabilize the situation in Jizhou.

"Elder Yang Ge, Da Sima is not here, you have to arrange the post-war affairs together, and the rewards and punishments are the most important." The emperor said after reading the recital.

"The old minister understands. Your Majesty, one more thing. The soldiers and horses inspecting Xuanfu and Datong have also been put in order, and the grain and grass will be complete in a few days. But now that the Jizhou Rebellion has been quelled, will Datong and Xuanfu still send troops and horses? ”

"Is it flat? Why don't I think so? Yang Ge is old at night, isn't he worried about any changes in Jizhou at all? ”

When the emperor asked this, no one else dared to raise their heads except Yang Yiqing.

It's Yang Yiqing himself, it's hard to say, what if something happens to Xuanfu and Datong?

But as the head of the cabinet, he had to consider the cost of using the army and the burden on the people.

In ancient times, when marching, a large number of grain and grass had chariots and horses, but these things were not unmanned, and they still had to be requisitioned by many people.

"When the imperial court's will to clean up the tuntian really falls, it may be more appropriate to say that the chaos has subsided. The soldiers and horses of these two places were still deployed according to the original arrangement, all the way out of the Bauhinia Pass, all the way out of the Juyong Pass, respectively guarding the main road into Beijing, once the situation changed, they had to obey the unified deployment of the chief military officers of Datong and Xuanfu.

I have sent the brocade guards to patrol the border, and under the pressure of this time, there may be some rebellious people who act boldly. As for the captured rebels, deal with them as they were. I only have one, I can't follow the rebellion of the court, and life will get better and better in the future, this reason doesn't make sense, right? ”

Enwei, Enwei, as an emperor, you really need to be gracious to the world, but you can't just be gracious and not subdued. That's why the ancients said that Enwei was distinct, so that the people below knew obedience.

In fact, the imperial court trained cavalry and stationed troops in the Hetao, and won two battles against the Tatars, and in the foreseeable future, the number of border troops and the number of guards could be reduced.

It's a bit bold to say, but the fact is that before Zhu Houzhao, Chen Bing of the Ming Dynasty was beaten like a million, what's the use of raising so many people?

So whether it is exile or beheading, Zhu Houzhao will take care of it, and Jizhou itself can also do without so many soldiers and horses.

Leaving some people behind is more conducive to the allocation of existing resources.

Zhu Houzhao just didn't understand what was going on with this Yang Shangyi, maybe it was because the comfortable days had passed for too long and he was a little lax. He didn't have a feeling that Jingshi Dongdaemun was very relieved at all.

Yang Yiqing turned sideways, and Wang Bing took two steps forward, "The minister was ordered to deal with the affairs of Jizhou Qingtun, but he didn't want to make a fuss about the Zunhua mutiny, this matter is the minister's negligence and dereliction of duty, please punish Your Majesty!" ”

"Wang Ge is old. Although I was said harsh behind my back, I am not an unreasonable person, you didn't know the situation in Jizhou in the past, and those rebellious soldiers have nothing to do with you. People are both good and evil, and if there are a few evil people in the world, I will let my henchmen and ministers follow to bear the blame, right? Get up, I'm not so confused. ”

Wang Bing listened to a few warm words, and the temperature on his face dropped a little.

In fact, this is a scene, he is holding the emperor, and the emperor will not really treat him badly.

"Your Majesty's reward is clear, and the old minister is inexplicably impressed!"

In fact, the ministers who were originally in charge of this matter were a little worried in their hearts, and if there was anything in their hands, they really didn't know what to do.

Now that the Emperor can tolerate this, the pressure is much less.

In fact, at the same time as the accident in Jizhou,

Xuanfu and Datong have begun to transfer the generals and schools of each guard on a large scale, with Wang Shouren leading the troops back to the west, and Jizhou in the east being pressed by the imperial forbidden army to fight in one place, and they will also have Beijing camps in these two places.

It can be said that there are soft and hard, and the imperial court is forcing them to complete the cleanup of the tuntian this time.

Yang Xing, the chief soldier of Xuanfu, and Shi Feng, the chief soldier of Datong, could not sit idle in the yamen with peace of mind, and all the soldiers, horses, grains and grass in the headquarters were prepared, and they all worked hard to prevent the people below from secretly causing trouble.

Shi Feng invented a special method, first, the generals and colonels at all levels must be on duty during this time, and they are not allowed to move around indiscriminately and leave their own areas without orders, and the general army looks at the deputy generals and the deputy generals look at the commanders, and there is an even more absolute one, he requires the commanders to report every two days whether the thousand households or hundreds of households are in their own places.

Wherever something happens in the future, he will pursue the commander.

This is the method adopted by the Ming Dynasty to prevent the clan from crossing the level and entering Beijing, because it is useless for the imperial court to make a will, so it ordered the local officials to point out the clans in their jurisdictions, and those who fail to do so will be punished accordingly, basically in prison.

At this time, it is not bad to use it for reference.

Although Datong's method is a bit one-size-fits-all, it does cut off the interconnection between the various health centers, and even if something happens, it is an accident in one place, and other places cannot form a connection with it, like Jizhou.

In the second way, Shi Feng ordered that no one could mobilize the soldiers and horses in Datong Town unless they got his warrant. Third, the treasury and granaries are guarded by three layers inside and three layers outside.

He himself led his men and horses to a few places where there was resistance in Qingtun.

is so strict and stubbornly guarded, it is basically almost used to use the sitting method.

In this way, he dared to make a statement to the emperor and say that Datong had nothing to do.

~~

Qianqing Palace.

Zhang Xuan came to meet the emperor under the leadership of his chamberlain.

He has actually been silent a lot in the past few days, unlike when he was in charge of Ningxia, many people in the court and the central government paid attention to him.

This silence actually did not match Zhang Zhang's original intention, so he himself gave the emperor a advice.

When he entered the palace, the emperor was standing at a table with his back to him, fiddling with something.

"Weichen Zhang Xuan, see Your Majesty."

"When it was close to the New Year, I wanted to summon you after the New Year. But I see that your words are earnest, and I can't bear to drag you for a few days. Bingyong, when I sent you to Ningxia, it was a personal job to hide from others, but now that the eight towns are together, the opposition from the central government has never disappeared, are you still willing to go out of the mountains again? ”

After Zhang Xuan came back from Ningxia, he changed into an official uniform with a round neck and a red robe, he was thirty-six or seventeen years old, but he suddenly stepped into a high position this year, and with the growth of his position, there was also his uncontrollable ambition.

If you don't have a chance, forget it. However, the emperor's determination to promote the clean-up of the military cantonment was to ignore the opposition in the court and use soldiers and swords to open the way.

He believed that even the emperor would feel a certain degree of powerlessness at such a time, so he had to help at this time.

Past experience has made him understand some things, officialdom, sometimes it is the right speculation, and it is immediately earth-shaking changes.

"The minister also knows how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, but His Majesty gives great grace to the ministers, if he does not go to the soup for His Majesty, won't the ministers be inhuman?"

Zhu Houzhao temporarily pressed the small mistake made by Zhang Xuan in the Ma Bin incident in his heart, and decided to focus on the overall situation at this time.

"After the New Year. After the Chinese New Year, you served as the right deputy imperial envoy and went to various towns to supervise the Qingtun affairs. I have already sent Jinyiwei as the first round, you are the second round, the first round will see blood, and the weather is bitter cold now, the people of Jinyiwei can stand it, you weak scholar, it is better to spend the winter in the capital now. ”

"Yes! Thanksgiving! ”

"Get up, come to me."

Zhu Houzhao rubbed his hands and showed him the things he had just been sorting out on the table for a long time.

Zhang Xuan took it with both hands, showing respect.

"Your Majesty, this is ...... Treasure ships? ”

In their hands was a model of a wooden treasure ship.

"This is a new thing that Ping Haibo gave me." Zhu Houzhao pointed and said: "The warships used in various places now are all 400 material ships, with a length of 8 zhang 6 feet, a width of 1 zhang and 7 feet, with double masts, which can be used, but they are too small. This new thing is a big treasure ship of 2,000 materials, with a total length of 21 zhang and a width of more than 4 zhang, each ship can be equipped with 4 copper and iron guns, more than 100 firearms, not counting the helmsman, fire chief, and people, and can carry 150 to 200 soldiers. ”

Zhang Xuan was shocked after a slight calculation, "Then if 50 ships are built, won't Your Majesty be able to have an army of 10,000 people on the sea?" ”

The emperor only smiled, "The cost of this kind of ship is two thousand taels each, and if I want to build 100 ships, it will only be 200,000 taels of silver." The main thing is 20,000 people, plus the salaries and food consumption of the miscellaneous servants, as well as the cost of all kinds of firearms, which is a huge number. ”

Zhang Xuan's eyes moved, "Then Your Majesty can prepare for the construction in batches, and there will be 10,000 people in the near future, and you can also be invincible at sea." ”

From his reaction, Zhu Houzhao could see that Zhang Xuan was a little different from ordinary Wenchen.

Basically, he is like Yan Song, everything follows the emperor's wishes.

As time passes, these people will gather more and more around him.

But Zhu Houzhao knew that he was doing the right thing, so he didn't care about the name of a traitor or not.

After all, there are some questions he can't answer......

Because he was a visitor from later generations, he could not explain the importance of the Age of Discovery, so he could only carry it out of his own volition.

"I also have this idea, come and come," Zhu Houzhao pulled him and said, "Look here, all of them can be equipped with artillery." All along the coast of the Ming Dynasty, these years have been plagued by the Japanese invaders, although it is from the sea, but the Japanese are also troubled, I want to build a strong sailor, straight to the nest! Once the sea is flat, the sea trade can be stable!

Besides, Ping Haibo has been saying that doing business abroad is different from doing business in Daming, and the court is in charge of everything in Daming, but overseas, other lords of other countries covet our wealth and become unreasonable, so it will be more troublesome. ”

Zhang Xuan nodded yes, "In this way, the preparation of the Daming Water Division is very necessary." In remote and small countries, sometimes the royal road is indeed difficult to educate. ”

"Hmm." Zhu Houzhao clenched his fists and tapped the table gently, "Don't be in a hurry, wait for the things in the north to be done." ”

But Zhang Xuan understood what the emperor meant, such a thing that costs money, there will definitely be a lot of resistance in the court at that time, and today he privately pulled him to say something in his heart, that is, so that he can understand the holy will in the future.

"Drive the captives from the north, get rid of the troubles, and your majesty's exploits can be traced back to the Holy Lord of ancient times."

"I remember that, but you'll wait until I'm done. How is it? The Emperor laughed, looking very happy.

"Yes!"

Zhang Xuan left the palace satisfied, he caught up with a good era.
