Fortunately, Cai Fuyi, the governor of Yunyang, is very reliable. Huh

2,000 mules and horses and supplies for Xiangyang and Yunyang have been secured in advance, and they can be mobilized now. In addition, only a small part of the materials and grain needed were transported from the dam river in advance, and most of them could be transported from the Yangtze River.

The Hunhe Army and Jianshe Army of Junxian, Fangxian, Yunxi County, and Yunyang all assembled in Zhushan County. Yunyang Prefecture mobilized villages and towns along the county to boil water and cook for the army and provide rest conditions.

The county order of Zhushan County summoned all the people in the county to prepare temporary resting places for the Hunhe Army and the construction of military camps; Zhou Dunji's relatives, comrades-in-arms, and friends all took action.

The families of the displaced people in Zhushan County, who have been turned into military tuns, entertain the Hunhe Army and the Jianjian Juntun who have gathered from all over the country as masters, regardless of the old and the young, and they are more active than others in supporting the front line.

The most touching scene is that they gave up their new houses to other people who had come from the construction of the military camp, and they lived in temporary tents themselves, boiling water and cooking for outsiders day and night, and asking for warmth.

They also set up a stage to sing and tell stories for the Hunhe Army and the Jianjian Army that were heading to the front line.

More than a dozen little daughters-in-law took turns on stage to sing "Sending Relatives", which is a song written by Liu Fuwen, who has gone to county school and is now a member of Zhushan County. Huh

They have put on new clothes, although they are coarse cloth, but they no longer have to wear the same rags and messy clothes as they used to, and they hide behind and dare not see people, they have been reborn.

There are also some people who go to night school, most of whom can know dozens of words, and they didn't even know their own names in the past, but now they can settle accounts when they buy things; They can also participate in the management of the military cantonment, and they also have the power to supervise their superiors.

Local people are busy supporting the front line; Yunyang Governor Cai Fuyi is transporting supplies; The Yunyang Mansion is also operating in preparation for war; Wang Hongyu, Zhou Zhaoan, Qin Ling, Zou Wenqi, and Zhou Yijie met again after separation.

Zhang Mingshi had already led the artillery to set off in advance, and the other main forces of the Hunhe Army and the Construction Army, which had arrived in Zhushan County one after another, took a short rest and sent troops to Sichuan.

Yunyang Prefecture sent Lei Ming to sit in Zhushan County to uniformly dispatch personnel and materials in front of each county and coordinate all aspects of relations; The auxiliaries dispatched from various counties are also ready to obey Lei Ming's deployment at any time.

After handling the transfer of generals and horses, as well as contacting Beijing, Xiangyang, Sichuan, Baoding and other places, it is necessary to leave Yunyang again.

The war was well prepared, but it also had to have more support from the imperial court and a stable rear. Huh

In this way, you can cut through the mess with all your strength.

......

At this time, Jiannu had not yet recovered from the battle of the Hunhe River.

Although there are many people in Shenyang and Liaoyang, the loss of the Eight Banners is too great, and it will take at least half a year to expand the army from the savage Jurchen and Sauron, and the strength has not recovered in the short term.

There was also Zhang Shenwu fighting guerrillas in Tieling and Kaiyuan Mountains, so that the Eight Banners could not concentrate on management and replenishment, so there was still no war in Liaodong.

The situation in the capital is also stable.

Gao Panlong, a radical faction of the Donglin Party, was dismissed and went home, and Zhao Nanxing, one of the founders of the Donglin Academy and a radical faction of the Donglin Party, was demoted to two levels and retained. Huh

Zou Yuanbiao, the representative of the pragmatic faction of the Donglin Party and the founder of Nangao Academy, was promoted to the imperial history of the left capital.

When Zou Yuanbiao announced that Donglin Academy and Nangao Academy had nothing to do with each other, it was decided that the Donglin Party had split.

And Ye Xianggao, the elder of the Donglin Party and the first assistant who was in charge of the outer court, did not dare to have too much contact with Zhao Nanxing and Gao Panlong.

Shoufu Ye Xianggao has already moved to put the pragmatic minister: Cai Fuyi, the former political envoy of western Shanxi, to be promoted to the governor of Yunyang, and cooperated with Wang Hongyu to suppress the rebellion of Extravagant Chongming and An Bangyan.

A group of officials who supported Wang Hongyu were reused: Xu Guangqi, Ai Youzhi, and Sun Chuanting were all promoted.

There is also a clear line with Zhao Nanxing and Gao Panlong in advance, and Sun Chengzong, the teacher of the down-to-earth and capable Emperor of the Apocalypse, was promoted.

A group of people who were co-opted by the Donglin Party, or who took the initiative to move closer to the Donglin Party, but all the wiser people saw that the situation of the Donglin Party was in full swing was gone, and they all kept their distance from the Donglin Party. Huh

Even most of those speech officials who rely on their mouths to fix people and hear the wind and rain already know that relying on the means of spraying people and framing people to gain fame not only cannot improve their own reputation, but will lose their officials and be convicted for framing others.

Zuo Guangdou is honest, Wang Wenyan no longer has a source in the inner court, and no one in the Donglin Party regards him as a military advisor, he is about to be forgotten, so he feels safer, and he has learned to forbear.

Only Yang Lian is still quite confident, as if no matter what the situation is, he is like an iron fighter, and he is still the most powerful minister.

"I, Yang Lian, am a well-known honest and honest official, a well-known minister. Do you little martial artist think that you can defeat the scholars in the world by using some intrigues and tricks to curry favor with the eunuchs and curry favor with the emperor? ”

From his point of view, the scholar should stop the martial arts, eunuchs, and the emperor from coercing.

It's a pity that there is nothing to be done......

There are still two people in the capital who can't sleep, that is, the Emperor of the Apocalypse and Wei Zhongxian. Huh

In the past few days, Tianqi and Wei Zhongxian have repeatedly read the "Preface to the Theory of Production" detailed in Wang Hongyu's letter, and the more they read it, the more they want to read it, and both of them are impressed by Wang Hongyu's exposition.

According to the exposition of the "Theory of Production", the unsolvable problem of the Ming Dynasty - the economy, that is, money, will be realized in a few young years, so that a rich and powerful Ming Dynasty will stand in the east of the world.

Apocalypse has always feared that he would become the poorest emperor.

Before he came to power, his father spent millions of taels a month.

After half a year, he had no real power, and Wang An and Donglin spent millions of taels more.

In the end, the money was half the work......

Now don't worry, you may become the king of Zhongxing in the Ming Dynasty. Huh

......

Meng Biao, the host of Wang Hongyu's stay in the capital, was also in full swing at this time.

Meng Biao is accounting for the first three quarters of this year:

Several new shafts have been opened in the Xishan Coal Mine, and the output of blended coal has quadrupled compared to last year, and after deducting the cost of additional investment, it has earned 20,000 taels of silver in the first three quarters.

Honeycomb coal has not expanded reproduction, because of the initiative to reduce prices, a lot more sales, but minus the loss of price reduction, basically the same as the first three quarters of last year.

Flat glass and glass products began to be sold, and it is expected that an additional 4,000 taels can be charged a year.

The production of clocks and watches is booked at a discounted price because of the supply to the Hunhe Army, and it will be deducted from military expenses in the future. In addition to the market and orders, the income in the third quarter was 3,000 taels, and the deduction price was recovered 2,000 taels, with a total income of 5,000 taels. Huh

The construction team only started operation in the third quarter, and currently only recovers 70% of the cost, with a loss of 1,500 taels, and is estimated to make a net profit of 5,000 taels after returning to the cost in the fourth quarter.

It is estimated that the income of the construction team will exceed the total income other than coal in two years, and the development prospects are optimistic.

"My lord is wise, even our future is so bright~"

Not only Meng Biao, but also most of the craftsmen, are about to work harder and harder.
