Some civil officials in the DPRK and China made a gesture, Wang Huazhen was generous, and even the first assistant Ye Xianggao felt that the time was almost up, and his student Wang Huazhen could step on Jiannu.

Only a few people such as Xiong Tingbi of Liaodong Jinglu raised objections, but they were accused by some people of being gutsless rats, and even attacked them for wanting to occupy a position all the time so that they could privately swallow military salaries.

Of course, Zhu Youxiao did not trust civil officials as much as before, and Wei Zhongxian also suggested that Wang Hongyu should be asked about this matter.

So the Apocalypse sent someone to ask for his opinion.

Of course, Wang Hongyu is not optimistic about Wang Huazhen.

This person's ability to recruit troops is very good, but it is a mess to use people and fight wars.

Except for Mao Wenlong, everything else is basically a faint move.

Offense can be offense.

Either it will be pushed forward little by little by more stable people like Xiong Tingbi and Sun Chengzong. Either a large-scale attack will be commanded by itself, and the Hunhe Army, the Shennong Army, the Southwest New Army and the trilateral elite will be the core.

Wang Huazhen's suggestion was categorical, and he had to be reminded to strengthen his defenses against Nurhachi's attack.

solemnly returned his opinion to Tianqi, and suggested that Wang Huazhen could be promoted and Xiong Tingbi could be in charge of Liaodong.

In the future, after the bear was attacked by a group, Sun Chengzong was used to steadily suppress it.

This advice is the safest thing to do.

You won't win, but nothing will happen.

After two years of development, you can go north to level Nurhachi.

After replying to the letter, Wang Hongyu also arranged a little public opinion base on his side to create a momentum.

When I talked to these seekers, I told them about the dangers of Nurhachi in Liaodong, especially the huge consumption of manpower and finance.

Then take the Tusi who are very close to them as an example, in order to shorten the distance and strengthen their personal feelings, and then truthfully tell that the heavy armor rate of Jiannu is extremely high, and the strength of individual soldiers is far above that of the Tusi soldiers who are in chaos.

Previously, Salhu Yang Ho and Juniper divided their troops, rushed forward, and fought in waves, and lost the elites of the two towns of Jiliao and a large number of excellent military veterans.

Yuan Yingtai relaxed his management and blind self-confidence, and killed many of the elite of the three sides and the main force of the Southern Army in the Battle of Liaoshen.

It was easy to lose the battle and the losses were very heavy.

Therefore, it is not advisable to fight in vain at this time, but to advance steadily, and it is better to spend more money for a while, rather than directly annihilate the whole army, not to mention the empty people, money and land, and invest dozens of times the cost in the future.

It's like Salhu was defeated, and he began to give 18 taels of silver to each soldier and horse to aid Liao, not counting weapons and basic supplies, it cost more than 2 million taels a year, and almost all the silver in stock since Wanli was issued.

After Liaoyang and Shenyang were lost, the Liaoyang salary was increased by 3 million taels, and now the tax burden on the peasants is already very heavy.

If you lose again, recruit and raise troops, buy equipment and support officials, how much silver will you need every year.

In the end, some of this grain and silver came out of the indicators of the officials in Huguang, and if they were out of their indicators, they would be multiplied by bureaucracy and corruption.

The people in Huguang originally thought that after quelling the rebellion of Hao'an, there would be basically no major danger.

But after listening to Wang Hongyu's speech, they all felt that it was indeed harmful to everyone.

Most of the officials, the wealthy, the merchants, and the common people realized that it was terrible to lose more and lose more.

"Huguang is ripe, the world is full" Huguang is a region with high grain production and tax collection, and it is of course unwilling to continue to raise taxes at this time.

At present, Wang Hongyu, Tianqi, and Wei Zhongxian do not advocate taking the initiative to attack Jiannu, but adopt a prudent defensive method to prevent the defeat from causing a greater burden on the people.

Wang Hongyu knows the power of public opinion, the apocalypse has not yet reached the point of a thousand words, and he must get the support of public opinion in order to withstand the pressure of the Donglin Party.

Under the guidance of Wang Hongyu, as well as the benefits of Wang Hongyu solving the Extravagant Rebellion, developing the economy of the southwest, and also driving Huguang, many of them supported Wang Hongyu's proposal.

Some young scholars agreed, and they rushed to tell each other and create public opinion:

"What Wang Jingluo said is absolutely right, we believe his words."

"Yuan Yingtai is a Liaodong economic strategy recommended by the Donglin Party

Defeated the battle with three times the strength of Jiannu!"

"The Donglin Party will only play lip service, at that time, they made Yuan Yingtai's boast of the sky, and as a result, they lost more than 100,000 troops of the Ming Dynasty and lost the only two big cities in Shenyang, Liaoyang and Liaodong."

"More than a dozen counties were occupied by Jiannu, and hundreds of thousands of Liaodong people became slaves!"

"How can anyone in the Donglin Party know how to fight, they will only use their mouths, this is the root of the Daimyo!"

"The Liaoshen Campaign led by the Donglin Party has wiped out the family foundation of Emperor Wanli of Daxing for decades!"

"Wang Huazhen won't be Yuan Yingtai's second, right?"

"I think this person has never fought in a war, and he is good at bragging, except for his good recruiting skills."

"Shoufu Ye Xianggao is his teacher, do you want to let him bury the army again!"

Under Wang Hongyu's propaganda, the relatively fierce Huguang boy ran to discuss the matter, and the direction of public opinion quickly became unfavorable to the Donglin Party. br>

Of course, Huguang also has government officials who have defected to the Donglin Party, and Yang Lian, the backbone of Donglin, is.

There were also scholars and literati who conspired with the Donglin Party, who quickly reported what they had heard and witnessed to the next level, and the relationship network of the scholars was quite large, and the angry tide of the prince quickly spread to Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Lianghuai, Henan, Hebei, and Shandong, and soon spread to Beijing.

The government and the opposition shook, the court shook, Shoufu Ye Xianggao was shocked, and the Donglin Party was scared.

The literati who were clearly expecting Huguang to oppose Wang Hongyu now have completely failed in their plans.

Yang Lian and others scoffed at Wang Hongyu, thinking that he was using money and power to win over Hu Guangshilin, which was a low-level approach.

If you win over now, you will connive and harm your hometown.

In fact, Yang Lian was completely wrong, Wang Hongyu wanted to guide Huguang Shilin slowly, and then exert his strength when the Southwest United School had an effect.

He is now more concerned about Huguang's economic, ecological and long-term development.

In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, there was a saying that "the lake is wide and ripe, and the world is full", and it has not changed since. Obviously, the plain in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, with Huguang as the center, has replaced Suchang and become the base of commercial grain in the country.

The technology and level of agricultural production in Huguang have improved, the crop structure has been diversified, and the commercialization of agricultural and sideline products has been prominent, but the enclosure of the lake and the cultivation of land are serious, and many fish ponds have also been filled into paddy fields due to high grain prices.

There is a trend of deterioration of the ecological environment, and grain production is not only not good for growth, but on the contrary, risks are gradually accumulating due to the gradual increase of floods.

We must put an end to this practice of "enclosing lakes to create farmland" and reclaiming wetlands.

The reduction of wetlands and lakes has directly led to the weakening of the water storage capacity of Hunan and Hubei, which not only destroys the natural ecology, but also floods the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, causing force majeure damage.

Wang Hongyu went all the way north from Guangdong to see that there were so many lakes in Hunan, and he heard the old people say that hundreds of years ago, there were several times more lakes in Hunan than now, and many lakes were connected by rivers, and many lakes disappeared due to the creation of fields around the lakes, and the rivers lost their flood channels and became prone to disasters.
