Chapter 43 I hope that the world will be peaceful

Dingguo is finally over.

Nanjing, where the dust settled, even He Xi breathed a sigh of relief.

The National Assembly is a major reform of China's traditional political structure. Sometimes He Xi doesn't know if it's right or wrong. After all, there's a magical law in history that whenever people feel like they've figured something out. Things will go in a different direction.

He Xi didn't dare to say that he had established this system perfectly, but it was also the ultimate he could do.

The whole system is enough to maintain an industrial system.

And what He Xi hopes for most now is nothing else, that is, peace in the world.

After all, there are no other problems overall, all that remains is execution. There is no problem with the big framework, just waiting for a little bit of implementation, especially in the next few years. If you want to reform all the local governments of the Ming Dynasty, this is a huge project.

This project is so big, all He Xi's preparations are for this one thing.

He didn't want to be distracted by other things.

As long as he can do these things peacefully, he can complete the industrialization of the Ming Dynasty. And he was thankful.

It's just that sometimes, the more you are afraid of something, the more you come.

In the fifth year of Longwu, there was one thing that was sent to He Xi's desk. The change that is in full swing has encountered problems.

This question is the Annan issue that He Xi had anticipated a long time ago. Annan Chen has been elevated by the people below, not for a day or two. Sooner or later, the usurpation of the throne will happen.

It's just a matter of time.

But the question is, how did this happen all of a sudden? It's a very problematic thing.

The lord of Annan, who was overthrown, sent people to Daming to ask for help, and the people who asked for help were killed in front of Ming officials in Guangdong.

It was the first time that the news spread loudly.

Not only the newspapers in Guangdong, but also the newspapers in Beijing reported this incident at almost the same time, which made He Xi feel that there was something behind it.

There is no need for He Xi to arrange, Yao Guangxiao has already touched this matter almost completely.

I reported to He Xilai.

He Xi said, "Tell me, what's going on?"

Yao Guangxiao said indifferently: "After several years, things have been mixed together, and the first thing is the matter of Guangdong. Where in the world there are the most Jianwen remnants, it is not overseas but Guangdong. Of course, Jianwen's remnants are in the past. Now the adults are heavy-handed in Guangdong. Many people are in the way, and they will naturally fight back."

He Xi naturally knew that the place with the most remnants of Jianwen was Liangguang.

Perhaps this is not accurate.

Without him, with the deepening of He Xi's reforms, from the central to the local, there are more and more remnants of Jianwen.

It's nothing more than some people whose interests have been damaged, holding Jianwen's sign to make trouble.

As for why Jianwen has the most remnants in Guangdong.

The reason is simple: Guangdong is the most affected by the new law.

During the Hongwu Dynasty, Guangdong was far away, and many of Nanjing's policies were not implemented very well. After all, the Central Plains dynasties of the past dynasties did not attach too much importance to Guangdong, and it was too remote.

Even in the Hongwu Dynasty, the importance of Guangxi was better than that of Guangdong. Without him, Guangxi can connect Hunan. It is a traffic artery connecting the north and south, not to mention that Guangxi Tusi is not stable. There is always a need to fight.

But this is not the case in Guangdong, and even Guangdong was not defeated by the Ming Dynasty, it was Yuan Shou who surrendered to Guangdong and sealed Dongguan Bo.

In this way, Guangdong, like some places in the south, was not too damaged in the chaos at the end of the Yuan Dynasty.

This preserves a lot of the old production order left over from the Yuan Dynasty. Before that, the Jiangnan region, prepared to say, the four prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River, Zhejiang and Jiangxi, attracted the attention of the Nanjing court.

Also hit hard by punches. Not to mention, Ding Xian's previous cleaning.

The so-called South, its

In fact, these places are just these, plus Fujian and Guangdong. At this time, although there is some heritage, it is far from it, and the lake is ripe. The world is full of feet.

There's a lot of toast in it, and it's going to be warned. Economically underdeveloped.

These places were suppressed, and Fujian was the beneficiary of the opening of the sea, and a large number of Fujian people were in the South Seas, and even went to the East and even the West. Let the official dialect not be popular overseas at all, but the Hokkien dialect is popular.

In this case, the local tyrants in Fujian are more interested in overseas interests than in Fujian's land.

The local tyrants in Fujian want to recruit their hometown children and go out with them, so they are not too opposed to the new deal.

Guangdong is different. Most of Guangdong's local resources are not very good, and the Pearl River Delta is relatively good, and the geography here is remote, and the orders of the central court are not very well executed here.

In addition, He Xi has been appeased by other places at the Dingguo is meeting, Suzhou, Hangzhou, Bailu Cave, and Fuzhou. But Guangdong was ignored. With the lake wide.

However, Huguang can't make trouble, and there are more and more Jianwen remnants in Guangdong.

He Xi snorted coldly and said, "What use can they use such means?"

"It's useless." Yao Guangxiao said: "They just want to divert your attention, so that you don't focus on them, just fool the past. As for the spread of the whole world in a few days, it is not for them to do it. There are a lot of people involved, and you should know who they are."

He Xi said, "Some people can't hold it back."

He Xi naturally knows who it is?

The first is the military.

He Xi naturally knows the importance of the army, and no matter what the situation, the army must be stable. The latest to complete reform and reorganization is the armed forces. Now the army has long been in accordance with He Xi's arrangement. The full establishment of the system means that some local reforms have not kept up, and the retirement system has not yet been completed.

After all, the retirement system seems to be a military system, but it is actually a social reform.

Without a conscription system, there would be no retirement system, and without a post-retirement management system, the matter of retirement would be meaningless.

Without the conscription and retirement system, there would be no continuous follow-up troops, so the army of the Ming Dynasty is likely to become a one-time army.

In fact, before the completion of the overall reform, He Xi is not ready to fight.

But the generals in the army couldn't hold back. Especially last year, King Yan made great progress in the Western Regions.

After the original Dingguo meeting was over, King Yan returned to the Western Regions, was silent for more than a month, and completed a feat, taking Ili in one fell swoop before winter came.

His war for supremacy with Timur advanced hundreds of miles westward.

Judging from the map, Timur has reached the point where there is no way to retreat, Central Asia seems to be vast, but there are not many places with abundant water and grass, that is, it is just a basin.

That was the core territory of Timur, and if he retreated, the king of Yan would come to the city.

Therefore, this year and next year are the days of the decisive battle between King Yan and Timur. Once the Yan King was victorious, he would replace Timur's position in Central Asia, and his influence would be able to spread to India and the Mediterranean coast.

If it fails, it goes without saying.

However, the Privy Council felt that King Yan would not be defeated.

After all, there is a generational gap in the weapons of the two sides, and there is also a generational gap in the army, not to mention. King Yan can use the money to buy enough weapons in Daming, which can even be said to be endless.

King Yan himself is also a general. In this case, it is strange that it can still fail.

In this way, the regimental forbidden army that assisted King Yan in the attack at the beginning was a great achievement, and King Yan naturally had a reward, not to mention that the court would not treat him badly.

After all, King Yan rewarded it, but the court didn't reward it, and the forbidden army in other towns would not listen to the court in the future. That's the big problem.

Of course, the army rewarded by King Yan will be withdrawn in formation and sent other troops over. And rightfully so.

But in any case, it stimulated the enthusiasm of the Ming army.

Passion for making a difference.

Not to mention, the matter of conquering the south, He Xi promised at the Dingguo meeting.

Of course, at that time, the expedition to the south was only from Yunnan to fight Burma. In fact, this battle has already started last year. He Xi promised something, and naturally he would not break his promise.

However, He Xi limited the scale.

There are many reasons for this, the most important of which are a few. First, there is the issue of logistics. The road of Yungui cannot guarantee the passage of the army at all. Coupled with the logistical needs of the firearms troops, it is not comparable to the era of cold weapons.

He Xi summoned people and calculated it.

It is difficult to maintain an army on the front line in a fighting state for a long time. Therefore, only two regiments of forbidden troops were mobilized at the front, and the rest were local guard troops.

This is the most economical way to play.

Second, it is because of Myanmar's topography, climate, and environment. He Xi also felt that a large-scale operation should not be launched.

If it is said that fighting Myanmar is like a decisive battle between the north and the south, a general battle, it can be calmed, He Xi gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, that is, he made up his mind.

That is, a handful of things.

But that's not the case. Myanmar is vast and sparsely populated with dense jungles.

If you want to hide people inside, you want to hide people, and it is difficult to find foreign troops.

And because of the climate, it is not a good thing for the northern army to stay here for a long time. If nothing else, the epidemic alone is enough to kill people.

Not to mention, Myanmar appears to be a whole, but in reality it is fragmented and independent. It's hard to unite, and you can't even afford to fight a big battle. In this case, the best way, and the most economical way, is nothing else. It's a battle of conquest.

Conquer, serve, give. Conquest is to get the opponent to surrender and send tribute.

This is also a common way of fighting in the Spring and Autumn Period. Both sides are endless, and if they are defeated, as long as they surrender, give money, or whatever. Victory over one side, will let them go.

This is not their pedantic, but the economic situation at the time.
