In the face of the official document of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, the Sixth Department was so angry that he died!

You are taking advantage of the opportunity to blackmail, you are blackmailing, you know?

We have lost a lot, this time you nobles have also lost a lot, we are all for money, how can we not be moral, take the opportunity to extort, you are too much!

Three years, three years of preparation, the daylily here is cold.

No, not in any way!

As we all know, on both sides of the game, whoever has better concentration will be able to get better conditions. Xungui also invested a lot of money on his side, but it was only money.

Once the civil servants can't clean up the mess, the national policy of encouraging industry and commerce, the value of the treasure banknotes, and the confidence of commercial investment ...... The household department could not explain to His Majesty, and the officials could not pay the allowance.

Even the Ministry of Rites can't bear it, and says that the construction of a better Ming Dynasty is what?

This major event punctured the cowhide.

What to do?

Hurry up and think of an idea, and let this army leader agree to send troops!

At this moment, Xu Jingchang's mansion gathered three princes in Beijing, including his uncle Xu Huizu, Qi Guogong Qiu Fu, and Chengguo Duke Zhu Neng.

As for Li Jinglong, the Duke of Cao Guo, he is still in Liaodong and has not returned.

These three, plus Xu Jingchang, the Duke of Dingguo, are enough to represent the honor.

In fact, Xu Jingchang was reluctant to get together with them, because he was now a transcendent political envoy, and he should have been high up, pitting civil officials and military officials, and he belonged to the two ends of the favor, and the two ends did not stick to the pot.

However, these nobles are too wasteful, and they don't see clearly where the interests lie, and Xu Jingchang has to work hard to give them guidance.

"You have to think clearly, this time it's not about asking for that little bit of money."

Zhu Neng grinned and said: "Dingguo Gong, that's not a little bit of money, that's millions a year, or even more." ”

Xu Jingchang glared at him angrily, "Stupid, what's the use of having more money?" In your hands, it can still be taken away, and this way of wealth can be cut off at any time. The dignified national prince, hereditary replacement, how to see it? Maybe the eye sockets are too shallow! ”

Zhu Neng was speechless and bowed his head in shame.

Xu Huizu pondered: "What do you mean, do you want to have a way to keep this financial road for a long time?" ”

Xu Jingchang nodded, "Uncle, now is a godsend opportunity to improve the status of the water master!" ”

"Sailor? What do you do to elevate their status? Qiu Fu snorted: "Fighting is about archery and horse shooting, where is the use of things in the water?" ”

When Xu Jingchang heard this, his face sank directly, "Qi Guogong, if you have the ability to cross the river with reeds, you will take the soldiers and horses to directly attack the Wa Kingdom, relying on your unparalleled cavalry and shooting, sweeping the barbarians, isn't it beautiful?" ”

Qiu Fu was dumbfounded.

Xu Jingchang took a deep breath, "Why can't you understand?" Why is Xungui suffering in the court now? Because the big guy has empty status, but he doesn't have much actual government affairs, even when it comes to war, money, food, and military orders are all in the hands of Wenchen. Now that we have the foundation to go to the West, and we want to use troops against the Japanese country, we just take the opportunity to improve the status of the naval division, and when the time comes, we will pay equal attention to the water and land armies, and we will have two more rights to speak in the DPRK, understand? ”

Qiu Fu was stunned, Zhu Neng still didn't understand, "Dingguo Gong, if there are more water masters, there is obviously only one more, how can it be two?" ”

Xu Jingchang was completely speechless, "Since there are two armies, on top of the two armies, do you want to set up a yamen to be responsible for coordination?" ”

Zhu Neng was dumbfounded, it was really an eye-opener, can he still play like this?

At this moment, Xu Huizu gradually understood Xu Jingchang's intentions.

The difficulty in employing troops abroad lies in the failure to cultivate corresponding interest groups and the lack of a guarantee of interests in the court.

Xu Jingchang's hard work is also for this.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be better to let Zheng He go directly, if he wins the battle, he will put it in his own pocket?

However, this kind of thing is in my own pocket, and it may be broken at any time.

The interests need to be shared, tied to the imperial court, and guaranteed by the system.

If you want to open up overseas interests, you need the sailor to escort you, and on the other hand, if the military commander pinched the sailor, he could pinch the money bag of the civil official at any time, and the root of his life.

You must know that although the Ming Dynasty imposed a sea ban, this sea ban only banned the imperial court, but it did not prohibit the big families in the south of the Yangtze River from smuggling and making a fortune.

"We have elevated the status of the sailor and opened up the pattern. Not only can there be one more force in the court, but if the civil officials want to monopolize the interests of the sea and are not allowed to go to the sea, we can bring out what they have done over the years, understand? ”

Zhu Neng and Qiu Fu both nodded again and again, and they had to say that it was true that they stabbed their buttocks with a rolling pin and opened their eyes.

Compared with Xu Jingchang's great lack of virtue, several of them are so weak that they have nothing to say.

But they still hesitated, "Dingguo Gong, the position of the sailor has been improved, so we can't let Zheng He be on an equal footing with us, right?" ”

Xu Jingchang squinted his eyes at Qiu Fu and snorted, "Qi Guogong, do you think you are much more noble than the Three Treasure Eunuchs?" ”

Qiu Fu's face turned red, and he hurriedly said, "I didn't mean that, I just didn't think it was appropriate." ”

"It's really inappropriate, so many nobles, all of them are known as famous generals, and they can't even find a few decent commanders of the sailors, and they also make the three treasure eunuchs hard, I can only say disgusting, disgusting!"

In an instant, Qiu Fu's old face turned purple eggplant, and Zhu Neng coughed again and again to relieve the embarrassment.

Xu Huizu sighed: "In this way, it is true that we need to cultivate more sailor talents, and Xungui's side cannot be complacent." ”

Xu Jingchang snorted: "It's not just Xungui, it's just the martial arts side, choose from there, Your Majesty will only be happier." ”

Qiu Fu was surprised, "Dingguo Gong, is it inappropriate for you to do this?" ”

Xu Jingchang sneered: "It's really inappropriate, I should let Fang Bin, the secretary of the Ministry of War, directly suggest to Your Majesty, I see if Your Majesty will agree?" ”

"This ......" Qiu Fu's old face turned red, and he could only focus on Xu Huizu after all.

"Wei Guogong, do you think so too?"

Xu Huizu sighed: "What if you don't do this? Why do we always suffer losses in the face of civil officials, because there is a steady stream of civil officials, and we can't compare. ”

Qiu Fu argued: "Didn't we also run a martial arts school? ”

Xu Huizu said: "It's true that you have run martial arts, but which of those who lead the troops in power is not a noble general?" Not to mention anything else, even the Three Treasure Eunuchs can't tolerate it, the military generals, compared with Wenchen, seem to need reform more! ”

Who needs reform more?

It's not a civil servant, but a military general!

These words are really harsh, as top nobles, Qiu Fu and Zhu Neng don't like to hear it, but they can't refute it.

Xu Jingchang finally sneered: "Actually, on the side of the sailor, it is said that a big ship is better than a small boat, and more soldiers are better than few soldiers...... With the armament of firearms, whoever has stronger firearms will have a greater advantage. On land, it is still possible to defeat the strong with the weak, but at sea, it is difficult. Now that the status of the sailor is elevated, in fact, the one who can get the benefits is the honor. Don't you know that the navy is an aristocratic service? ”

Xu Jingchang sighed: "I have worked hard to leave a piece of land for your honors. Do you really think I need these things? It's really troublesome to talk to you about things, and if I knew this, I would have talked to Jian Yi and Xia Yuanji...... I am willing to help them, two civilian officials are in charge of the army, and there is no difficulty in using literature to control the military. ”

Qiu Fu and Zhu Neng's faces were instantly ugly.

Xu Jingchang does what he says, he really has this ability.

"Dingguo Gong, those civil officials who can't fight, they will only do bad things if they are in charge of the army."

Xu Jingchang snorted: "Don't talk about people, your second and third generations of nobles really know how to fight?" The people cultivated by the martial arts side are a big deal to give them a civilian background and let them supervise the generals. ”

"I'm telling you this, not to scare you, but to remind you that the current Ming Dynasty is at a juncture of change, the yamen is increasing and decreasing, and the authority is increasing and adjusting, all in a single thought, you don't make a mistake and mislead others!"

At this point, the two of them were finally speechless.

"Dingguo Gong, since this is the case, we will all listen to you." Zhu Neng said honestly.

Xu Jingchang corrected: "I want you to know where your interests are!" We must have a long-term vision, we must have a big picture, and we can't have small noses and small eyes. ”

Xu Jingchang's beating, the two princes were silent.

Back at home, Zhu Yong listened to the canine father's narration and mercilessly gave him the biggest white eye.

"No matter how good people Dingguo said, you are all to blame, so you are self-contained, with a small nose and small eyes."

Syllable!

Zhu Neng slammed the table, "Little rabbit, how can you talk to your father?" ”

Zhu Yong rolled his eyelids, "Dad, you'd better not scold your son for being a little rabbit." ”

"Why? You can't scold yet? ”

"That's not it, it's mainly bad for your old man."

Zhu Neng was stunned for a moment, then became furious, jumped up and was about to fight.

"I'm going to fucking kill you bunny."

Zhu Yong turned around and ran, and disappeared in a blink of an eye, not to mention, he slipped faster than a rabbit.

But the next day, Zhu Yong appeared outside the General Administration.

"Dingguo Gong, I can't be the same as those wastes, I want to go to sea!"

Xu Jingchang was slightly stunned, and then said: "Zhu Yong, going to sea is dangerous, and it is not a good errand to leave your hometown and drift on the sea." ”

Zhu Yong sighed, with a childish face, full of helplessness, "What's the solution, it's all my father's incompetence, I have to do it!" ”

Xu Jingchang was stunned for a moment and stretched out his thumb, "Very good, just rush this, Xungui finally didn't lose to the civil official." ”

Zhu Yong was stunned, and at this time, an elderly important minister walked over next to him, and it was Song Li, who had been driven overseas by Zhu Di before......
