Chapter 262: The Son of Heaven Guards the Country

Li Miao's action to clean up the backyard is like a gust of wind, which comes and goes quickly. Soon the backyard of the Li Mansion was restored to its original state. Li Miao is still the same as before, Li Miao has long been accustomed to this kind of life. Comfortable and comfortable.

As the New Year approached, the women in the backyard of the Li Mansion also began to get busy. Everyone has their own industry, and by the end of the year, they all began to have their own income. Fortunately, most of them are mainly silver tickets with downwind ticket numbers, and there is very little silver.

Lin Daiyu and Jia Yingchun are even busier. Not only do their respective industries need to be taken care of, but the backyard of the Li Mansion is also preparing for the New Year. The backyard of the Li Mansion was busy, but Li Miao was idle like something, with nothing to do.

The women in the backyard of the Li Mansion are busy with this and that during the day, and most of them count their small ledgers at night. This year's harvest is good, and there is a lot more money in the private house. I'm thinking about what to do in the coming year.

The people of the capital have long been full of confidence in the downwind transport dart game. There is a tailwind transport dart bureau at the border, and everything is fine. The flavor of the New Year in the capital has also begun to get stronger and stronger.

A large number of displaced people in the capital during the winter in Beijing this year still do not appear. Everyone has become accustomed to it. In recent years, with the rise of the tailwind transport dart board. There are many job opportunities. As long as you have a lot of strength, it is not a big problem to eat well.

Today's Hajj is the last Hajj of the year. After the court meeting, the yamen will be closed. Li Miao can also start taking annual leave. What Li Miao is most concerned about now is the results of the Northern Bureau. This is related to the scale of the expansion of the Downwind Transport Dart Bureau in the south next year.

The last great meeting of the year, according to the convention, will be a united meeting and a victorious meeting. Inspiring conventions. All in all, it was a festive meeting. Even if it's not festive, it has to be festive.

Especially the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, he should be smiling and beaming. Even if you pretend to be festive, this is a political task. But the emperor sitting on the dragon chair today really can't pretend.

The emperor's face was solemn, and he just got the news yesterday. This time, the steppe Tartars had 150,000 horses and horses, and they did not engage the Shunfeng Transport Dart Bureau in the border area. There were no attacks on the Granges in the border areas. Instead, he drove all the way straight to the hinterland of Beizhili.

In fact, the emperor also knew that the Shunfeng Transport Dart Bureau was in the border area, and he was only using the Grange to defend. They can only defend with the Grange. Fighting field battles and positional battles with the steppe Tartars, isn't that looking for death?

This year's steppe tartars have become smarter, and they are not entangled with the downwind transport dart board at all. All the way straight to the hinterland of North Zhili. The steppe tartar is also a wise man who eats a trench. In the past few years, I have suffered from the hard attack of the Grange. Heavy losses.

The emperor received the news that the steppe Tartars were driving straight in, many days later than Li Miao, who was standing among the ministers. The imperial court's post stations in the northern border area have long been destroyed. The spies of the imperial court hurried and rushed to deliver the news only yesterday.

And Li Miao uses flying pigeons to pass on books, and the speed of information transmission is not a star and a half worse. Li Miao had received the news a few days ago that the Grassland Tartars had already penetrated five hundred miles into the border and attacked the Grange.

When the emperor and the cabinet ministers received the news, they could only do nothing. Originally, I was expecting the steppe tartar and the downwind transport dart game to lose both! Now the serious problem of resisting the steppe tartars was once again put in front of the imperial court.

It is obviously impossible to defend against the steppe Tartars, and there is no such strength. Now there is only Wang Ziteng's Beijing camp, and there are twenty or thirty thousand elites who can have the strength to fight. But that can't be engaged in the field either. So in the end, we can only go back to the past and defend the city.

The steppe Tartars did not have siege equipment, and even if they did, they were not good at attacking cities. Besides, the price paid for the siege of the city is many times more cruel than the attack on the Grange. It is believed that the steppe Tartars will not choose to attack the city. Therefore, there is no need to worry about the safety of the capital, or even the safety of other cities.

The invasion of the steppe Tartars and the damage caused to Beizhili must be self-evident. The point is that this time it was succeeded by the steppe Tartars. There will definitely be more invasions in the future. The original plan to move the capital has been shelved, and it is on the agenda again.

Moving the capital is a last resort and a next resort. In the present and in the future, the northern region is the political center. No matter how economically developed the South is. Since ancient times, those who win the north win the world. Almost all of the people who have unified China have always been the northern forces.

The northern region of China has been a fierce folk since ancient times. They are always under the iron heel threat of the nomads of the north. If you want to survive, there is no other way but to fight. Unless you're willing to be a two-legged sheep.

Under such circumstances, for hundreds of thousands of years, the people in the northern region have gradually developed a martial fashion, and it is reasonable that the people are fierce. The strong genes have long been integrated into their bodies and souls. Therefore, the forces of the north are not comparable to those of the south.

How could the emperor and the cabinet ministers not understand this truth. Moving the capital to Jinling also means giving up the north. Abandoned the populace of the North. Lost the hearts and minds of the people in the north. What it means, they all understand.

Although I thought that after moving the capital to Jinling, I would make every effort to reorganize the dynasty. Restore the old mountains and rivers. But that's just a wish. Thou hast abandoned the people of the north like a mustard. How can the people of the north be summoned by you?

The founding emperor of the Great Zheng Dynasty directly built the capital in the current capital. Directly moved the capital of China to the north and moved thousands of miles away. The Son of Heaven guards the country, what a courage. It is also the only emperor in thousands of years.

Most of the capitals established by the original northern forces were near the Central Plains. There is still more or less room for himself. As the saying goes, leave a few lines of defense, leave a buffer. But the local people in the north suffered greatly.

Only the founding emperor of the Great Zheng Dynasty directly set the capital at the current capital. How could such an imperial northern populace not support it. The Son of Heaven guards the country. What a feat.

The founding of the Great Zheng Dynasty for more than 100 years is also because the Son of Heaven guards the country. The people of the north have been at ease for more than a hundred years. Protected from the trampling of alien iron hooves.

How can the peoples of the north not be grateful? And now the descendants of this Ming monarch want to abandon the people in the north and move the capital to Jinling. Of course, the emperor also knew that he did this. Ashamed of the people, ashamed of the ancestors and ancestors. But what could he do?

The emperor sitting on the dragon chair, the emperor who should have a happy face, couldn't pretend to be anything. Listening to the reports of the senior members of various ministries on the great achievements of this year. The emperor is disdainful, which of these credits belong to the imperial court, it should be from the Shunfeng Transport Dart Bureau.

But in a few days, all this will be trampled on by the aliens. will all be gone with the wind. How can you make the emperor laugh. Of course, the emperor will not mention the relocation of the capital. It's early, and besides, it's about to be the New Year, and besides, the alien race will not come to attack the capital.

To say that in the past two years, the north of the Great Zheng Dynasty has risen with the rise of the tailwind transport dart bureau. The economy has developed rapidly, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. The imperial court tax has increased year after year, and it is a scene of peace and prosperity.

Last year's Annan Guohe relatives, although the dowry cost five million taels of silver. But the emperor copied the first family in Jiangnan, the Zhen family. The treasury has also grown a lot. In addition, the second government of Rongning recently repaid more than 2 million taels of silver owed by the household department.

It stands to reason that the imperial court is not short of silver now. But the officials are corrupt. The emperor wants to rearmament, this is the foundation of the country. Without a strong army, everything is in vain. But there was not much money left that could reach the soldiers.

The root cause of everything goes back to the corruption of officials. The emperor now has a solid foundation. Since the death of Emperor Taishang, the centrists in the court have voted over. Now the throne is as secure as Mount Tai. But the officials are corrupt, and now they can't even strengthen the army.

The dynasties and dynasties died in the corruption of officials. There are no special circumstances, and the change of dynasties is due to the corruption of officials. When a dynasty prospers, it will gradually decay. That is, the corruption of officials.

Then there is the accumulation of hard work, and finally it slowly falls. It was finally replaced by a new dynasty. The new dynasty began to grow stronger because of the incorruptibility of its officials. In the end, there was also corruption in the administration of officials. In the end, it can only lead to destruction. And so on and so forth.

In the final analysis, the corruption of officials is caused by the greed of human nature. In fact, it is also an inevitable law. Power is one, officials have great power, and corruption is in the same thought.

When the corrupt officials in the DPRK and China accounted for the vast majority, plus the officials protected each other. Collusion between officials and officials. Most of those officials who are not corrupt are also because they do not have the conditions for corruption. For example, an official of the Qingshui Yamen like Li Miao.

Let's ask who still has the ability to rectify. How many people have to be rectified. And those people will wait for you to rectify it slowly? Those are not ordinary people, many of them are high-ranking officials with great power. So in the history of this world, there is no precedent for success.

This year, the last grand meeting of the Great Zheng Dynasty came to an end in an extremely depressing atmosphere. Many ministers also knew about the steppe Tartars, who had crossed the border. Therefore, repression has become the main theme of this great court.
