Six hundred and seventy-eight: callback to Hankow
Jia Jing sat under the tent and watched the soldiers outside training under the supervision of his own soldiers, recruit training This kind of thing Jia Jing didn't know how many times he had gone through, so he couldn't be more familiar.
What's more, with the help of Xue Qiu and others, Jia Jing is even more idle, these soldiers are all young men he recruited from various provinces, basically a few poems, and they join the army one by one............
In addition, Jia Jing promised a bunch of benefits, what is several times higher than the salary of other armies, there is a bereavement pension for the sacrifice or injury, there are condolences during the New Year's holidays, literacy is preferred, and those who have studied are directly officers after training!
So Jia Jing actually kidnapped a lot of people, and even a poem: "Rather be a centurion, than a scholar" directly made countless readers who felt that the imperial examination was hopeless, or who wanted to abandon their pen and follow the Rong road, joined in!
But Jia Jing felt that it was not enough! I think it's not enough!
These people are not simply preparing for the Japanese army, Jia Jing is ready to train them as a navy! As an era when the Air Force has not yet appeared, the Navy should be the most advanced and precious army in this era!
So it's not too much! Jia Jing's standards for them are completely according to the standards of the Yulin Army! It's even taller than the Yulin Army!
Because the Yulin Army only needs to fight on land, and although the reserve army prepared by Jia Jing can only fight on land and along the coast now, as long as the Luo Gang's people gain a firm foothold overseas, they will all go over to learn naval combat techniques from the Luo Gang's people!
Jia Jing is going to divide these people into two parts, one is the kind of pure water division that fights with ship artillery on the sea, and the other part is the marine type of the marine division, which is mainly responsible for island landing operations!
Because to completely exterminate the Japanese pirates, it is not only necessary to fight to the Dongying mainland to deter, but also to exterminate all the pirate bases on the islands around the Dayan Sea!
The sailor may not be suitable for Dayan, because Dayan has no interest in the ocean in his bones, Jia Jing knows it in his heart, and he also knows that no matter what step Dayan's future development takes, it should always be based on the army.
But that doesn't mean that Dayan can't develop a sailor! Yes and no, that's two different things!
Jia Jing has no interest in plundering resources and plundering population, because as long as Dayan wants it, he can completely rely on peaceful means to get it, as a big country, it is shameful not to have the bearing of a big country, and there is more help for the righteous and less help for the unjust, Jia Jing knows in his heart that doing those dirty things will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history forever! Therefore, he will never be qualified to win the real long-term kingship!
Strong, only qualified to be a king for a short time, and strong and benevolent, is the strong man who will always be king!
Therefore, Jia Jing is very interested in sailors, but at the same time he is not very interested, his great interest is to maintain the stability of the sea frontier around Dayan, or to escort Dayan's caravan to any corner of the world, to deter any country in the world, when a country's arrogant shouting gives him a little color, his fleet can wake up the king of this country from his sleep the next morning with strong ships and cannons! That's enough.
But to say what bloody primitive accumulation to rely on this fleet............ Jia Jing is not interested in this, and he also despises this kind of behavior!
But today, Jia Jing feels that his idea may have stabbed a hornet's nest!
Jia Jing looked at the secret decree in his hand again and again, and only after confirming it again and again did he reluctantly confirm that this was indeed an order issued by Emperor Yongxi!
But it is precisely because of this that Jia Jing is a little dazed............
Not really?!
He had already told Emperor Yongxi that he was going to form a reserve army, and Emperor Yongxi also agreed, so he was relieved to boldly recruit troops, but now it has just reached 60,000 people, so it was stopped?
Jia Jing rubbed his chin, puzzled! With the pattern of Emperor Yongxi, what is 60,000 people enough for? Therefore, Jia Jing even thought with his eyes slightly narrowed that it would not be someone who put on small shoes for Lao Tzu............
Jia Jing, who thought for a long time and couldn't understand, put his eyes on the last order to move to Hankou, and after thinking for a long time, he beckoned to Qingfeng and said, "Go and get the map!" ”
Qingfeng nodded, opened a box and hurriedly handed the map to Jia Jing, Jia Jing unfolded it and lay on it to look at it carefully for a long time, frowning and thinking for a long time, before Jia Jing slowly surrendered his gaze to a place............ Banshu Propaganda Division!
Jia Jing got up slightly and pointed there with his finger and said, "Is this the territory of Tusi?" Qingfeng stepped forward and looked at it for a while, and then scratched his head and said, "Since it's called Xuanwei Division, I'm afraid it should be a place where the toast gathers." ”
Jia Jing glanced at Qingfeng: "Don't you understand the Qiankun hexagram?" Qingfeng smiled bitterly, the focus of the Qiankun hexagram is now basically placed in the north or even further north of Liaodong, and the south may only be available in more important cities such as Jinling and Yangzhou, Banzhou Xuanwei Division............ Who knows what kind of bird doesn't poop?
Dayan is very big, and without the support of imperial power, it is impossible for the Qiankun hexagram to put all the places under his nose to monitor!
Therefore, Qingfeng bowed his head slightly ashamed and said, "I'll check it now." Jia Jing nodded, and then Qingfeng was just about to go out, when he bumped into Baoqin who was jumping and about to run in, fortunately, Qingfeng was fast enough, and quickly dodged away, making Baoqin think that there was an automatic door in front of him, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a while.
Qingfeng nodded slightly and was ready to go out, and Baoqin didn't care about stepping forward and lying on Jia Jing's body and said, "Hey! What is Brother Jing playing today? ”
Jia Jing smiled bitterly and stood up straight and pushed her off her back, but Baoqin was tall and still put her chin on Jia Jing's shoulder and looked at the map in front of Jia Jing with a curious smile.
Jia Jing smiled helplessly and said, "What are you playing?" Serious business............ Baoqin, go to your brother and see him scolding. ”
Baoqin pursed her lips, a little dissatisfied with Jia Jing's coaxing of her as a child, and bumped Jia Jing's side face with her little head: "I'm not going!" When he entered the schoolyard, he seemed to be a different person, and he almost scolded me............ Bad brother! I'm never going again! Hum! ”
Jia Jing amusedly put her shoulder on Baoqin, Baoqin shook her head dissatisfied, last time she ran over to play, she didn't know that it was the school field and ran in to talk to Xue Qiu, but thousands of soldiers in the audience looked at her in a daze............
Xue Qiu scolded angrily, and finally his emotions came up, and he scolded Baoqin with a sentence of "get out", and this sentence made Baoqin aggrieved for several days!
Baoqin is open by nature, more like the Tang Dynasty and modern women, the Xue family itself is a merchant family, at this time the citizen class, including the wealthy merchant class, is more open, and does not restrain women, and some people may say that most of the women I said above are women from the rich merchant class to criticize me This sentence is not right, but in fact, the foot wrapping in that era was not wrapped because of backwardness, but because of fashion............
Foot wrapping appeared in the Song Dynasty, not because of the so-called feudal etiquette, but because of its good looks............
At that time, women pursued the beauty of the three-inch golden lotus, so there was such a product as foot wrapping, and according to the traditional feudal etiquette, it was to criticize this kind of behavior of mutilating the body born and raised by the parents!
Therefore, since the Song Dynasty, the imperial court has repeatedly issued a ban on foot binding, but it is just not banned, even in the last dynasty, they can only strictly prohibit banner women from binding their feet, but they have not been able to control Han women from binding their feet. (But in fact, because they don't allow the banner people to engage in commercial farming, in the middle and late stages, most of the banner women can only choose to wrap their feet for their livelihood)
It wasn't until later that this behavior was linked to feudal etiquette, and this bad habit was really abandoned, but in fact, it had little to do with feudal etiquette............
But just this can be seen, even if the imperial court has repeatedly issued bans, it can't prohibit these rich businessmen from pursuing fashion, just like when Dayan opened the country, Emperor Taizu also issued a ban not to allow rich merchants to wear silk and satin, but the rich merchants only wear a layer of coarse linen clothes outside when they go out, and in fact, they still wear silk and satin brocade when they return home!
And after the Taizu Dynasty, Emperor Taizong and others didn't care much about this, and no one cared about them, and even now, those people are not wearing flying fish suits and bullfighting suits at home!
Jia Jing knew that in a few decades, these people would even dare to wear flying fish suits on the street, or even wear python robes to play at home! And it's not that there is any arrogance, but the flying fish suit python robe is really good-looking!
When Jia Jing first got the flying fish suit, he also liked it very much, and he didn't take it off when he wore it to sleep almost every day! But Jia Jing is legitimate, and those rich businessmen dare to do this, which shows that they are really "open-minded............
And Baoqin, who was born in a wealthy businessman's family, has followed his parents to the north and south since he was a child, and he is naturally more free-spirited, and he ran into the school field for a while, whether it is Jia Jing or everyone who knows Baoqin, even those soldiers don't think it's so strange.
So Xue Qiu was actually because Baoqin disturbed his training, so he scolded Baoqin in a hurry............ How could Bao Qin have suffered this grievance? I haven't paid attention to Xue Qiu for almost half a month now............
Jia Jing smiled and stroked Baoqin's little head: "Your brother also regrets it, he is in a hurry, and you don't pay attention to him when he wants to apologize to you these days." ”
Baoqin squinted her eyes slightly like a kitten, enjoying Jia Jing's "caressing" and even making a purring sound when she was comfortable, and said with a smile: "Since Brother Jing has said so, then I will reluctantly forgive him!" ”
Jia Jing smiled when he heard this, and then he was still looking at Banzhou Xuanwei Division in a daze, Baoqin stepped forward and said to Jia Jing when he saw this: "Where is my brother looking?" Is it here? Banshu ............ It seems to be a place for toast, right? ”
Hearing this, Jia Jing looked at Baoqin and said, "Do you know here?" Baoqin pondered for a moment with her index finger in her finger and then muttered: "I remember that a few years ago, when my father was still in good health, we went to Banzhou together, and the timber there was all good wood, which was very suitable for Neigong, so we bought there for a while. ”
When Jia Jing heard this, he said with interest: "How much do you know?" Baoqin frowned and thought for a long time before saying, "I don't have any impression, but I just heard that the toast over there has the final say, and what is the name of the one who does business with us............ Five divisions and seven surnames? It seems like this, I heard that they are very powerful, and my father told me that they can even have their own army, and even control the life and death power of everyone under their own rule, and they don't have to pay taxes to the imperial court............"
Speaking of which, even Baoqin smashed her mouth cutely, looking very envious, after all, it sounds no different from the emperor!
Jia Jing frowned slightly when he heard this, and then slowly leaned over the map, thinking hard about something, and Baoqin was careful not to disturb Jia Jing's thinking when he saw this.
At this time, Qingfeng also opened the handsome tent and walked in and said, "Master Hou, the matter of Banzhou has been clarified." Jia Jing was still lying on the map and said, "Speak." ”
Qingfeng bowed his head and said yes, and then said: "It is true that something has happened in Banzhou recently, I heard that Yang Yinglong, the Tusi of Banzhou, rebelled, and the imperial court sent a large army to conquer, and the result was ............ Seven or eight thousand people were lost. ”
Jia Jing couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this: "How did I know about such a big thing now?" Qingfeng said with some guilt: "We don't have much eyeliner in the southwest, and a lot of news is even learned through Jinyiwei's channels............ Subordinates are guilty! ”
Jia Jing suddenly waved his hand and said, "What does it have to do with you?" At the beginning, I said that I would develop the north first, and in places like the southwest, it is estimated that there are not many eyeliners of the imperial court............"
The Qiankun hexagram is very powerful, but not so powerful that it monitors the world............ That requires the support of imperial power, and this is what Jia Jing can't provide to the Qiankun hexagram now, and the Qiankun hexagram has developed to the present, so that even Emperor Yongxi's eyeliner can't detect the existence of the Kun hexagram, and it is necessary to give up a lot, so the volume of the Qiankun hexagram is actually very small, and it is not enough to spread to the whole Dayan!
In this case, Jia Jing must only focus on the most important north, and there is no need to lay an intelligence network in a place like the southwest where birds don't.
Jia Jing propped his hands on the map and looked at it for a long time before he smiled and said, "How did the imperial court deal with so many deaths?" ”
Qingfeng thought for a while and said: "I heard that His Majesty ordered Jia Yucun, the secretary of the Ministry of War, to deal with this matter, and Jia Yucun has sent someone to let Chongqing Taishou Wang Shiqi deal with this matter, and the imperial court put forward three conditions, offering 40,000 yuan to atone for his crimes, and the second son went to Chongqing as a hostage, and dismissed all the positions of Yang Yinglong, the Tusi of Banzhou, and handed over to his eldest son to inherit, and handed over the person who killed the officers and soldiers. ”
Jia Jing looked at the map and thought for a long time, before he got up and knocked on the map and said, "This is a delaying tactic!" ”
Hearing this, Baoqin blinked and looked at Jia Jing and said, "How did Brother Jing know?" I'm listening............ This seems to be the court asking Yang Yinglong to be soft and give face. ”
Jia Jing glanced at Baoqin with a smile, then turned to look at the school field outside, and said with his hands on his hips: "Because if it really ends here, it won't be so simple, Yang Yinglong himself is not dead, it can't be said, not to mention ............"
Jia Jing's eyes narrowed slightly, he knew Emperor Yongxi just like a son understood his father! His temper is definitely not so easy to stop!
Outsiders know that Emperor Yongxi is extremely good at forbearance, and maybe he will admit that he has suffered this loss! But Jia Jing knows more about Emperor Yongxi, on such a principled issue, unless there is a huge benefit, otherwise, Emperor Yongxi will not bear it for a second!
So even though he was thousands of miles away, after knowing the situation in the southwest, Jia Jing still tacitly knew what Emperor Yongxi meant!
Jia Jing licked his lips, as if he had tasted the familiar smell of blood!
He said in a deep voice: "Breeze! Qingfeng hurriedly lowered his head and said, the corners of Jia Jing's mouth curved a bloodthirsty arc and said coldly to him: "Go and inform everyone, early tomorrow morning, get ready to go, let's go to Hankou!" ”
"Yes!"
…………
"The court upholds the principle of benevolence, and it has always been a lenient and caring attitude towards your toast, on behalf of the court, this official assures you that as long as you say all this can be done, and you really sincerely repent, then Your Majesty the court will also be tolerant and forgive you for your recklessness!"
"I, Yang Yinglong, swore to the imperial court that if I can get His Majesty's pardon, I will continue to do my best to protect the court and the people for the court and Dayan as before! Absolutely no more trouble! Please be enlightened! ”
Wang Shiqi looked at Yang Yinglong, who had a sincere attitude and a firm expression, and knew in his heart that he was taking off his pants and farting, but this is what the will of the court meant, even if he was disgusted, he could only smile and comfort: "Yang Tusi rest assured, the court still trusts you, and Lord Shangshu Jia of the Ministry of War personally asked and guaranteed that as long as you admit your mistakes and have a positive attitude, and the conditions proposed by the court can be completed, then the court will definitely not blame the past!" ”
Yang Yinglong nodded gratefully and thanked him, then stroked the head of the young man next to him, and said softly: "Kedong, go." ”
The young man didn't have the slightest fear at all, nodded when he heard the words, then stepped forward and stood beside Wang Shiqi, looking like a little gentleman...............
Yang Yinglong arched his hand and said: "Dog Kedong, please take care of the adult!" Wang Shiqi nodded with a smile and said: "Don't worry, Yang Gongzi will definitely eat, drink, live well in my Chongqing, and after a few years, you will pay the ransom, and Ling Lang will naturally go home." ”
Yang Yinglong nodded, and then the two exchanged a few more words, and then went back, both of them couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief!
This meeting was held next to the Qijiang River, not far from Qijiang City, and the surging Qijiang River was on the side of the two, as if witnessing the end of this meeting where they both felt that the other party was hypocritical but had to be hypocritical!
