Chapter 479, Daming War Machine, Start!
The problem in front of him is: the emperor's eldest son, King Yue, has married the Duke of Qianguo early, and his future is in the southwest.
Needless to say, the crown prince is the third son of the king, and his future is in the south. The fourth son of the emperor and the king, the original plan is self-evident.
The biggest problem with the rest of the princes is that they are still young.
Now that North Korea has taken the lead in raising a big problem, there is no chance for the Ming Dynasty to take the lead in seeking the Japanese and encircling North Korea in the north and south.
Zhu Houxi thought about this problem.
Since the news came from the Yalu River at the end of last year, Zhu Houxi has been thinking about possible opportunities and subsequent disposals.
At this time, he said very directly: "The King of Liao has a weak crown and has been taught by me since he was a child. His mother Mao's Ming book history, Shen Yi is broken, and the virtuous voice is heard all over the world. ”
"Your Majesty, by all means!" Yan Song was taken aback, "As soon as this case is opened, it will not suffer from widowhood but unevenness!" Although the kings of the clan are grateful for His Majesty's kindness, they ......"
In a word, there are so many vassal kings, who doesn't want to be able to get this opportunity to be at ease?
"The pros outweigh the cons." Zhu Houxi has already made up his mind, "If you don't hold me back, you will have a chance." In addition to making great contributions, allowing to be the lord of a foreign domain is the only way out without being demoted. ”
Now the ministers understand a little, it turns out that at the end of last year, when the two feudal kings, a duke, a marquis and an uncle were strictly arranged, His Majesty was probably ready to give this sweet date?
Obviously, this is to make some people see that the pie is getting bigger. In this way, Xing will not only not lag behind, but will also actively support Daming's new strategy.
There may also be a foreshadowing that if he does not do well or has different intentions in the future, the emperor can take several key positions back to the land at the right time......
Become a vassal king with real power...... Although it is comfortable, it is not necessarily easy to do.
On this issue, it's just a breath now.
On Li's side, he really took Yuan Yin's head to ask for guilt.
Even the Lantern Festival has not passed, the prince of North Korea is fierce and hateful, although he deserves to watch the lively Ming people with a word of "filial piety" praise, but after all, it is still "not exquisite".
The New Year's knife is unlucky!
It's really a barbarian, even if it's a so-called royal child.
But he was very likely to succeed to the throne as the king, and he was willing to sacrifice his land and become a minister, which still made the people of the capital blow up.
People with intentions have been preparing as early as possible, and since the tenth day of the first lunar month, there have been more and more scholars and businessmen to help ask for their lives.
It is not mentioned that it is accepted as real land, but from the perspective of culture and education, and from the perspective of the livelihood of the people, I ask the imperial court to make up its mind to solve the urgent problem of North Korea.
And this change also brought excitement to Shang Yuan and Mao Longyin to "figure it out" the last step.
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Shang Yuan and Mao Longyin also knelt outside the noon gate during the first day of the New Year.
Their strength is weaker, and the identity of Shang Yuan's crown prince is clearer, and the king of the Ryukyus, who has not been heard from for a long time, must be gone.
At the beginning of the new year, the two countries offered their lands as vassals.
In the National Palace, the Ming Emperor finally issued a clear decree.
The Korean prince Li Feng Andong Gong, the Liaodong Border Army, and the Beiyang Naval Division entered the DPRK to quell the turmoil, and the Korean national plan will be discussed after the civil strife is pacified.
Ryukyu Crown Prince Shang Yuan was crowned the Duke of Taitung, Ryukyu Law Department Mao Longyin was named Taitung guerrilla general, and the Ryukyu Maritime Division went to Ryukyu to expel the Japanese invaders.
Many years later, in addition to the attack on the Mengyuan Khan court in the Xuanning border area, the Ming Dynasty once again raised the battle flag.
Tianjin Zhigu, inside and outside Shanhaiguan, Ningbo Quanzhou, will soon be lively.
Cui Yuan, the president of Daming Bank, was cooperating with the Ministry of Finance and Taxation and the State Treasury to prepare for the redemption of the old 10-year treasury bonds and the sale of the new 10-year treasury bonds, while Yu Chengye once again convened the enterprises under the Huangming Assets Bureau to mobilize.
Chengguo Gong Zhu Xizhong has not been convicted, but he can't sit in the position of president of the Construction Bureau.
Elect new people.
But that's not the most important thing.
The most important thing is that he consulted with the vassal kings in the grain reserve as the auxiliary sect commander of the Zongren Mansion, which is also the auxiliary sect commander.
"Last year's income and statistics have not been completed, the army has not moved the grain and grass first, and the grain reserve number needs to be fully operational."
Yu Chengye, who cooperated with Lu Bing, Guo Xun and others to engage in two vassal kings in one fell swoop, is now more effective, at least these vassal kings are trembling at the moment.
Zhu Rangxu, the king of Shu, was still alive, and suddenly said very honestly: "You should share your worries for Your Majesty." ”
Yu Chengye said: "Now, it is still necessary for two companies to withdraw from the grain storage number, and they will no longer receive money and share profits in the future." One of them, His Majesty appointed the Liao Domain. ”
He was a weak vassal king who almost got rid of the vassal because of his sin and inherited the throne of the Liao king under the name of the Mao clan, and now he just trembled in his heart and asked in disbelief: "I don't know...... What is Xiao Wang's crime? ”
Yu Chengye shook his head with a serious face: "It's not a crime!" This is the grace of His Majesty. The other needs to take the initiative to fight. ”
Everyone didn't know why, but Yu Chengye said solemnly: "If there is a leak this time, Your Majesty has a clear will, it will really be a capital crime!" In exchange for the shares of the grain reserve and the rest of the enterprises held by the old land, he was given the position of the lord of a country. Ladies and gentlemen, do you still remember that in the early spring of last year, His Majesty issued a decree to compare the princes of all feudal domains, and clearly stated that those who have both virtue and ability, and who understand the righteousness, may divide the kingdoms as masters in the future? ”
There was silence in the hall.
Yu Chengye saluted to the King of Liao: "The prince of Liao is one of them, and now there is another country dedicated to the land and called the minister, and the king is waiting for the throne!" ”
Then there was a stirring in the temple again.
Is what you said in the first place true?
Maybe it was the previous wind and rain that made people too scared, or maybe the emperor had already encircled them in the capital and didn't look like he could rest assured of them, so he didn't take it seriously after calming down at that time.
Do you really want to do it now?
Some of the princes have already reached adulthood and can become a vassal!
Yu Chengye finally smiled: "Your Majesty said, there are still many opportunities to be loyal to the monarch and the country." The world is so big, and there are dozens of feudal states around the Ming Dynasty. Today, you need to make up your minds again. First express your argument, and then listen to the oracle before the royal car. In addition to the selection of a king by the prince of Liao, there are still many matters to be discussed with His Majesty and the princes. As the real master of a country, how to educate and govern foreign vassals is a new course. ”
So the hall was completely fried.
Ryukyu is comparable to a prefecture, right? North Korea is a province, right?
If you can really be the lord of the country with real power, what can the profit received from the shares converted from the previous Yulu and the land and house be counted?
The word "please...... In fact, it is to let them make up their minds at this moment, at least temporarily give up the profit sharing and go to the queue.
Naturally, there is more room for the operation of the grain storage number.
The plan really got to this point, and there was a lot that needed to be done in order to build the architecture.
Tang Shunzhi said that it is naturally impossible to be so rude in pushing all the local magnates clean and beating the magnates to divide the land, but the scale will not be small.
It is necessary not only to let the people of the foreign domain get an opportunity for large-scale distribution of benefits, but also to make room for the princes, civil and military, merchants, and ordinary people who moved from the Ming Dynasty.
And how to match the local pro-Ming faction, how to establish a new system, how to ensure a stable relationship with the Ming Dynasty, and finally the King of Liao and King Su, who were elected by the emperor, listened to it very much.
There's a lot to learn.
……
More than 30,000 North Korean refugees who have fled to Daming have now become Minzhuang's auxiliary soldiers, leading the way and assisting in transport; Many of the rest have become propagandists.
Gong Yongqing returned here and mobilized hard.
"If Master Wang really quells the rebellion, he will not allow the whole country to harm you as in the past! Those powerful and traitorous ministers, after killing your head and taking your house, will give you more land. In the future, like the people of the Ming Dynasty, they will not bear such heavy conscription. Officials, big households, all have to pay food! You see, these are all good grain seeds and iron farming tools that this official invited to His Majesty......"
He's like a chicken now.
Having been a diplomatic envoy in North Korea for many years, this is the most important opportunity in his life.
If this time goes well, can't he, the right attendant of the Ming Dynasty's Sanpin Rite Department, be the prime minister and minister of state of North Korea in the future?
Now he looked at "Anton Gong" Li again: "The Korean ministers, the local clans, who is loyal and who is traitorous, the official only knows the approximate, and the rest will be guided by Lord Li." ”
"I am also a minister, I should serve myself!"
Lee said it righteously.
After being crowned the Duke of Anton, he set off from Beijing and took nearly a month to arrive here, and Li received the exact news, and his heart finally fell to the ground.
Yin Ren and the prince of Joseon were really besieged and killed, and the news has come.
This also proves that Queen Wending and Yin Yuanheng should have been very sure this time, but they were out of control after all.
In another history, after the death of Li Yi, the prince of Joseon died strangely after only one year as king.
Queen Wending and the Xiao Yin brothers didn't dare to do anything.
And this time, the pressure to detonate the contradiction is even greater, but they can't do it so carefully and help Queen Wending's own son seize the throne so smoothly.
Right now, Li, who had already stabbed Elder Yin, was in a very advantageous position.
As the head of Li Yi's existing sons, he had already sent a letter to the south.
The matter of sacrificing land and becoming a vassal has not yet spread widely.
But the elimination of Wang Shizi and the emergence of a Li will only make Queen Wending and Xiao Yin's faction even more crazy.
Meantime...... In order to avoid future troubles, Li's other younger brothers who are still in North Korea are afraid that they are all in danger.
Does Yin Yuanheng dare to guarantee that there is no second Lee?
As long as Queen Wending and Yoon Wonheng really go crazy to this extent, then everyone in North Korea will inevitably be in danger.
At this moment, Li is not so vicious. Now that he had made up his mind, he resolutely began to go in this direction.
The sooner you take this road, the better.
Song Liangchen has already prepared for a winter, and now that the will is coming, where can he still hold it?
"I believe in the grain and grass transfer of the imperial court! Cross the river before it thaws! ”
This is a grand strategy that has been brewing since the year before last, and there is also the transfer and joint training of generals and soldiers in the middle, which is customized for the needs of conquest in all directions.
It's a little earlier now, but that depends on the opponent.
The current opponents are simply unable to form a joint force, and they are fighting separately and beware of each other.
In terms of ordnance and drill level, the fully paid Ming army, which has long been recruited by all soldiers, plus the future of being able to get rewards in the future, and having an official and a half-position in Daming or North Korea, are like a delicate girl swaggering in front of her.
Li looked at the appearance of the Ming army crossing the Yalu River in good spirits but in an orderly manner, and his mood was very complicated.
There has long been such an elite army, but after so many years, he has suppressed the desire to conquer everywhere, and Da Ming's plan is really beyond his imagination.
When he went to Beijing from here last year, Liaodong was still a peaceful and tranquil scene, and he had no intention of mobilizing troops.
Now that he's back here, within a few months, Liaodong has been like a machine running at full speed. From civilian officials to military generals, everyone performs their duties and does things that are beneficial to pacify Korea as soon as possible.
Some specific small practices, dispatching vehicles, ships, and materials that are transferred by sea and land, all reflect the organizational ability and efficiency beyond his imagination.
Behind what Li didn't know at all, it was the stimulation brought by Zhu Houxi who had just knocked on the hammer of the clans under the Emperor's Assets Bureau, and the temptation to let the vassal kings other than his son do it now.
The framework that belongs to the DPRK is in place, including enterprises that will rely on the human resources and products of the DPRK to do business in the future. Tied to the King of Liao, there will be so many relatives who can be diverted over to help the King of Liao stabilize the money bag of North Korea.
On the Tsushima Island, Yan Shifan finally received the latest order from Zhu Houxi.
After reading it, he laughed: "Sure enough, this is more enjoyable!" Zongsang, with North Korea, why bother with whether this pair of Falklands can be defended or not? Guard it well, Lao Wang, by order, we will attack from the southeast! ”
Wang Zhi was extremely excited, but Zong Qingkang immediately knelt down with a pale face: "Yan Sang, Wang Sang, you can't go!" Leaving us alone, how can we resist the Imperial Defender Alliance? ”
"Uncle Ben will not take all the grain that has been transported. With that spear team, are you still afraid that you won't be able to defend this Golden Stone City? Yan Shifan looked helpless, "I am Your Majesty's Emperor of Dongyingbo, how can I resist and disobey the order?" ”
"Can't hold it...... At the very least, your ship can withstand them from landing so quickly, which is a greater drain on them! Zong Qingkang begged bitterly, "You have been named Uncle Dongying, your inheritance is here!" Wouldn't it be good for the future to consume them a little more? ”
“…… The Holy Decree must not be violated! ”
Wang Zhi looked at this and smiled: "Uncle, the will is only for you." Zongsang also has a point, otherwise, I will stay with three small boats. ”
Yan Shifan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at him.
Wang Zhi nodded: "Listening to Your Majesty's will, North Korea naturally wants to fight quickly, and even think of summer grain." Uncle blockade the southeast of Korea and will soon be able to return triumphantly. Ouchi Yoshitaka had just passed through the territory of the Niko clan, and although he was clamoring for an attack on Tsushima Island, he was not willing to take risks until he had done a good job in securing the new territory. A slight setback here, that is, the prestige has plummeted. ”
Yan Shifan still didn't speak: That's why the Ming warships have to be withdrawn, so that what kind of bullshit imperial defense coalition army will attack. In Tsushima Island, there will only be Japanese enemies, so you can rest assured. The frontal fight was down, and the bullshit royal defense coalition army was defeated, and that was the rabble that immediately wanted to disperse.
"After all, the country is very big." Wang Zhi looked at Zong Qingkang again, "Since Zong Sang has taken refuge in the Ming Dynasty, how can he not protect the foundation of the Zong family?" Uncle, if you really only rely on fighting, how long will it take to beat them all? A quick solution and a quick revival of maritime trade is the only way to relieve Your Majesty's worries and be more conducive to Your Majesty's plan! ”
After Yan Shifan thought about it for a while, he stopped being verbose.
"Good! Lao Wang, I'll leave it to you here. Uncle Ben will go back when he goes! ”
Between Liaodong and Shandong, Xue Han also stood on the ship and looked east.
Before and after him, the shadow of the sail covers the sky.
