Chapter 287 Establishment of a Province in Korea, Economic Theory

Wang Yue's soldiers came to the city.

Gunaha immediately retreated, and the city celebrated.

Han Minghun who was standing on the tower of the inner city, his face was covered with blood, and when he saw the Ming cavalry rushing towards him, he fainted directly.

He hadn't closed his eyes for seven days.

The inner city wall has long been riddled with holes, and it has been guarded for twelve days by a determination!

The number of casualties in each defense of the Korean army was as high as 110,000, and the number of casualties exceeded 200,000!

Many sections of the inner city are stacked with corpses.

Korean ministers such as Zheng Lintoe, Han Minghu, Kwon Jung, and Han Qu all wore armor and personally killed the enemy and pulled out all the slaves in their families.

The degenerate North Korean officers and soldiers alone could not hold on for so many days.

His family's capital has suffered heavy losses.

And Gunaha also suffered heavy losses, nearly 4,000 Jurchen soldiers died on the city wall, and he only had 7,000 Jurchen soldiers in total, and his vitality was really damaged.

And the number of Koreans who were damaged in the siege was as high as 300,000!

After this war, the population of the entire North Korea, where every family was white, and the population of the city in the elite area near Seoul plummeted by seventy.

Wang Yue built a camp by water, forty miles away from the Jurchen camp and more than seventy miles away from the inner city wall, and he just led the army to go around the city.

Let the fierce fighting be forced to stop.

"The North Korean army has become a climate." Wang Yue's eyes were gloomy.

The Korean army defending the city, after this battle, is all elite, if the king of Joseon raises his arms, it will bring great trouble to the Ming Dynasty.

Although the Jurchen soldiers consumed thousands of people, the rest were wolves, and one was a wolf for ten.

"Order, the whole army camped and rested, first looking for food and water." Wang Yue traveled lightly and threw the grain and grass to Zheng Guta, who was besieging Kaecheng.

"General soldier, Seoul is crumbling, the city walls will collapse at any time, if North Korea asks you for help, will you send troops?" Yang Shou and Chen Fengchen, who were the counselors of military affairs, came over.

Yang Shouchen has been rectifying military discipline, and the sinicization of Tatar soldiers is mostly due to him.

He was busier than Wang Yue, if he hadn't arrived in Seoul and the whole army was a little slack, he was afraid that he wouldn't even have time to speak.

"Don't save it!"

Wang Yue was still looking at the overall map of North Korea: "Restoration, come and see." ”

"We're here now, our supplies, it's a line."

"Once the Jurchen soldiers cut off our supplies, our 20,000 or so people will be alone."

That's right, Wang Yue arrived in Seoul so quickly, and he walked in a straight line.

Uiju, Guseong, Jincheon, Anju, Suncheon, Pyongyang, Hwangju, Eunba, Zuheung, Pyongsan, Geumcheon.

It also crossed Kaesong, and Kaesong is still guarded by Dusit.

"What do you mean?" Yang Shouchen asked.

Wang Yue was still thinking about it, because he had Jurchen soldiers in his hands, and once he was released, it would be really difficult to manage.

"Your Excellency wants to break up the army and surrender the city to the west? Expanding strategic depth? ”

Yang Shouchen frowned slightly: "Tatar soldiers are not available, these Tatar soldiers can do it for the sake of money, along with their comrades." ”

"And if you don't obey discipline, there are very few veteran generals in our army, and you can't suppress the Tatar soldiers at all."

Wang Yue said: "Zhou Xian, Zhou Yu father and son are good. ”

"Especially Zhou Yu, when he goes into battle to fight, his cavalry shooting is no worse than that of Tatar soldiers."

"It can be cultivated."

Wang Yue spoke very slowly, and said thoughtfully: "Order, Jiang Wan, who is stationed in Chushan, will leave for the south!" ”

Nobody knows.

Wang Yue also left a hand!

Jiang Wan, the Marquis of Dingxi, was not with Wang Yue at all, he led two thousand iron cavalry, hid in Chushan, and has been sheltering the people in Chushan, and training troops at the same time.

Chu Mountain is in the lower reaches of the Hunjiang River, and above it is the Daming City of Hengren.

And the Hunjiang River is called the Pozhu River in Daming.

The Pozhu River is the boundary between the Ming Dynasty and the Jurchen, the city of Hengren, was built by Zhu Qiyu, which originally belonged to the territory where Li Manzhu lived, and was bought back by Zhu Qiyu, and built a city here, giving the name Hengren.

Although the emperor forcibly brokered Wang Yue and Jiang Wan, Jiang Wan was also arrogant and unwilling to condescend to Wang Yue.

Wang Yue also gave him autonomy and gave him two thousand cavalry, which were stationed in Chushan.

"Order Zhou Xian, go south in Nanpu, and attack Shaliyuan, Yinli, Changyuan, Haizhou, Wengjin and other cities!"

Zhou Xian was left behind and stationed in Nampo to assist in the defense of Pyongyang.

"Please ask the governor of Liaoning to speed up the speed of entering the DPRK, and the army must be continuously transported to ensure the supply behind!"

"Give Zhou Yu another 1,000 men, the troops will go north, capture Panmunjom and Cheorwon, and defend the north gate of Seoul!"

"Restoration, I have to bother you to go."

Wang Yue made a decision: "Give you 2,000 people, be sure to occupy Hongchuan!" ”

On the map, Hongchuan is the center of North Korea, the waist eye on the waist, and controls Hongchuan, the east gate of Seoul, in the hands of the Ming army.

At the same time, the initiative of the battle situation was also in the hands of the Ming army.

"My lord, have you really decided?" Yang Shouchen was worried that the killing was too much.

It is easy for the Tatars to be released, but it is difficult to take them back.

"I didn't expect that Seoul would be held for so long, and if you want to dismember North Korea, you have to do this!" Wang Yue decided, and he did not hesitate.

Wang Yue asked Li Kan to be invited.

Lieberthal was in charge of immigration.

Take a look at the famous ministers and generals that the emperor matched with Wang Yue.

Therefore, Wang Yue can take a three-pronged approach, Li Kan is responsible for immigration, Yang Shouchen is responsible for sinicization, Jiang Wan, Zhou Xian, Zhou Yu and others are responsible for military training, and he Wang Yue is responsible for overall planning.

"Lord Li, this official wants to ask you to attack Shuizhou to the south, hold the southern gate of Hancheng, and beware of ships going to sea."

Lieberthal is as good as a stream, he is upright, but not a fool.

The emperor wants to take over the land of Korea, and his participation in this war will surely last forever, and he himself has the ability to command the army.

The emperor reused him, although he was subordinate to Wang Yue, at least he gave him a chance to stand out.

"Lord Commander, just give the subordinate a thousand soldiers." Lieberthal was confident.

He knew very well that he was stationed in Shuizhou, and he would not have to attack and plunder south for a while and hold Shuizhou.

He will collect the courtiers, and then train elite soldiers, ready to go south at any time.

"There's Lord Lao!"

Wang Yue saluted, and went to invite Qin Cheng, the eunuch guarding the town.

Although Qin Cheng was a eunuch guarding the town, he learned the art of war with Wang Yue with his heart, and he participated in the drills of the generals, rarely spoke, just listened and learned.

He also fought a few small battles, and he tried his skills well, which was remarkable.

"Father-in-law Qin, our army is short of talents."

"I have to ask you to lead the troops alone, take down Icheon, and hold Icheon."

"No matter whether the Chaoren or the Jurchens attack, they can't lose the city!"

Wang Yue said seriously.

Icheon, the city southeast of Seoul, the most important artery to the south and east, Wang Yue planned to hoard a large amount of supplies here as a base camp for the invasion of southern Korea.

Qin Cheng didn't expect that such an important task would be handed over to him.

This is Wang Yue's cleverness.

You have to give the eunuch a chance to make meritorious contributions, Qin Cheng is studious and has few words, and he didn't cause chaos in the army, he also reciprocated the favor and gave Qin Cheng a great credit.

"Rest assured, although our family is a eunuch, it is also bloody, Lichuan is in our hands, our family is in the city, and if our family dies, the city will die!"

Laid out.

After a day's rest, the armies split up and plundered their own territory.

He had no intention of attacking Seoul, but he placed pockets around Seoul to force the Jurchen soldiers to leave quickly.

And in the city.

Han Minghun woke up and found that it was quiet on the city wall, so he asked, "Has the Ming army ever entered the city?" ”

"Not yet."

Han Minghun looked slightly condensed: "Is the Ming army going to die in North Korea?" Quick, send someone to ask for Cheng Xin. ”

Cheng Xin came reluctantly.

Li Yao really disappeared, the five palaces burned for several days, and the emperor Li Jin never came out.

Cheng Xin faintly guessed that Li Yao was also waiting for the opportunity, and when the Jurchen soldiers retreated, he would come out and pick up the bargain.

The situation is getting out of hand.

He Cheng was uneasy in confidence, and he couldn't contact Wang Yue, who was close at hand, and the situation in North Korea became unpredictable, and he needed Wang Yue to enter the city and cut through the chaos quickly.

"Lord Han, don't worry, the Jurchen soldiers are no longer attacking the city, and the Korean army doesn't have to be nervous."

Cheng Xin said with a smile: "As long as the Jurchen soldiers don't know what to do and don't seek a way back, I will let them fall apart in an instant." ”

Han Minghun also guessed Wang Yue's arrangement, he would not directly accept North Korea, because the Ming generals also need military merits, and if they don't fight, there will be no military merits, and the Ming army will not agree.

There is another layer, Wang Yue does not attack the Jurchens, and let the Jurchens continue to surround them, which also has the intention of bargaining.

"The next country is willing to go to the table and ask for it!" Han Minghun was straightforward.

Cheng Xin is not interested, he also wants to make meritorious contributions.

The change of seizing the door is nondescript, he has merit, but it is not a great achievement, and it is much worse than expected.

Li Hongwei is dead, and it is impossible to make another change to seize the door.

It is possible to send Li Yao to Daming, and by the way, send the queen to His Majesty's palace for His Majesty to enjoy.

"Who will offer the table?" Cheng Xin asked.

Han Minghu's pupils shrank slightly, Cheng Xin actually wanted Li Jin's life!

What kind of enmity does Emperor Jingtai have with North Korea?

"The five palaces collapsed after burning, a ruin, the road to the underground palace has long been blocked, even if the king of Joseon still exists, he is just surviving in the underground palace, and when the food is gone, it will become a white bone, useless to find."

Han Minghun is also familiar with history.

A living Li Jin is more beneficial to him than a dead Li Jin.

When the Ming Dynasty controlled Korea, he would vigorously promote his vassals, especially Han Qu, Han Minghun and Quan Wei, and keep them in Korea and control Korea.

And a life and death unknown Li Jin is an excuse to expand his strength.

"Li Yao" came out to rebel at every turn, and every time they put down the rebellion, their local families would expand their strength, and over time, they would be able to be the next Li Sunggui and create the next Joseon Dynasty!

"Then send someone in there and dig it!"

Cheng Xin said loudly: "You want to see people in life, and you want to see corpses in death!" ”

Han Minghu's pupils shrank: "This ......"

"I don't see the king of Korea for a day, and Wang Yue doesn't enter Seoul for a day, this is what I Cheng Xin said!" Cheng Xin just needs to offer Li Jin to show his great achievements.

Seeing that there was no room for bargaining, Han Minghun could only sigh.

And the North Korean generals are also seeking a way back at the moment.

They all want to flatter Daming and get a good official position, as for the Li family, what does it have to do with them?

As long as Da Ming gives a lot, let them betray, without hesitation.

And the good news came to the center.

Zhu Qiyu announced the courtiers into the Palace of Nourishing Hearts.

"Wang Yue is already a blockbuster, and this battle is well fought."

Zhu Qiyu exclaimed: "Cheng Xin and Luo Qi are also talents, although the coup d'Γ©tat planned by them has not been completed, but it is also a great achievement, the three of them have taken the lead!" ”

"Gentlemen."

"I want to turn the north of Dingzhou, the west of Chushan, to Anzhou, into a prefecture, and divide it into Liaoning."

"For the rest of the land, establish a Korean province."

He said as he drew on the map.

The courtiers frowned slightly, and Yao Kui said: "Your Majesty, are you putting the dangerous terrain in Liaoning?" In case of a Korean rebellion, troops can be sent from Liaoning to directly quell the rebellion? ”

"Yao Qing knows my heart very well."

"The dynasty is a villain, the best at capriciousness, I just unified the dynasty, the initial period will inevitably be turbulent every year, if you want to completely dominate, it will take a while."

"Therefore, the dangerous terrain must be firmly in my hands."

"This is also the reason why I did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to move the people of the dynasty into the Liaohe Loop, and if the people who moved into us entered, their hearts would be towards the Ming Dynasty!"

"At that time, Taizong gave the northeast corner to North Korea, and when I established Jilin Province, I would take back this part and include it in Jilin."

Zhu Qiyu said: "The dangerous terrain must be controlled in the Daming Province, and it will be okay to wait until a hundred years later, and then change the division." ”

It will take three generations to completely assimilate North Korea.

The terrain in the north of Korea is steep, mountainous, and there is no oil and water, and these places are occupied by the Han Chinese, who give the terrain to the Koreans, and after 30 years, they are completely assimilated.

Hu Hu went to supervise Nanjing.

Yu Qian was training troops, and Sun Yuanzhen was building ships.

Now the important ministers are headed by Yao Kui, Wang Fu, Geng Jiuchou, Bai Gui and others.

Geng Jiuchou said: "Your Majesty, it is better to continue to the east, and then set aside a mansion, and also divide the three guards of Jianzhou into Liaoning, so that Liaoning also has a dangerous mountain range, which can be defended in danger, and can be waved into the court at any time." ”

"Then it will be divided by the Qingchuan River instead, and the north belongs to Liaoning, and the south belongs to North Korea Province."

Zhu Qiyu pointed to the Pozhu River: "Change the Pozhu River to the Hunjiang River, take the Hunjiang River as the boundary, and divide it into two prefectures." ”

"The government office is located in Turtle City, and this is Di Yu Ling, so it is called Di Yu Mansion;"

"To the east of the Hunjiang River, to the west of the Qingchuan River, it is called Qingchuan Mansion, and the governance is located at the boundary of the river, and the two prefectures belong to Liaoning."

"Take back the Jianzhou Sanwei, establish Tonghua City here, establish Tonghua Mansion, and return to Liaoning."

"In this way, there are nine prefectures in Liaoning."

The map of Liaoning has been expanded.

Siping and Tonghua, which originally belonged to Jilin, were all included in Liaoning, and from North Korea to two prefectures.

"North Korea establishes a province, referred to as South Korea."

"Ascend to Wang Yue, as the governor of Korea;"

"Cheng Xin is the political envoy of the DPRK Provincial Minister;"

"Luo Qi is the patrol envoy;"

"Promote Li Kan to be sentenced to the position of prosecutor and prosecutor;"

"Promote Jiang Wan to the commander of the provincial capital of Korea, and concurrently serve as the commander-in-chief of the Korean army;"

"Promoted Zheng Guta to the commander of the provincial capital of North Korea, the commander of the commander, and concurrently served as the deputy commander-in-chief."

"The rest will be rewarded after the success."

"The generals of North Korea will be rewarded according to their merits."

Zhu Qiyu directly crossed the Xuanwei Division and the Capital Division, and directly established the province.

"Spread the decree, the resettlement of displaced people in Beijing, and the priority will be given to resettlement to North Korea."

"And give the Han army generals local wives and concubines, settle down in northern Korea, move in a group of elite soldiers, and after entering the DPRK, they will be exempted from military registration and issued civilian registration."

Wang Yue used blitzkrieg, and Zhu Qiyu wanted to pursue fast.

Yao Kui whispered: "Your Majesty, are you too anxious?" ”

"What's the hurry?"

"The Ming Dynasty has been educating North Korea for a hundred years, and the people who were transported out of North Korea can speak Chinese, and there is not much difficulty in communicating with the Han people."

"Besides, North Korea was ravaged by the Jurchen soldiers, and the population plummeted, and it was the time for the Ming Dynasty to take advantage of the weakness."

"When the war is over, the Han people stay in Korea, marry wives and concubines, and recuperate."

Zhu Qiyu was no longer verbose, but said: "I want to enable the abbreviation of the province, now there are many provinces in the Ming Dynasty, it is inconvenient to call the full name, it is difficult to distinguish, simply use the abbreviation." ”

"For example, Shanxi is referred to as Jin, Rehe is referred to as Zhao, and North Korea is referred to as Han ......"

Gansu is referred to as Liang, and Ningxia is referred to as Yun; Shaanxi is referred to as Qin; Shanxi is referred to as Jin; Rehe is referred to as Zhao; Beizhili is referred to as Yan; Liaoning is referred to as Liao; North Korea is referred to as South Korea; Shandong is referred to as Lu; Henan is referred to as Henan; Hubei is referred to as Hubei; Hunan is referred to as Hunan for short; Sichuan is referred to as Shu; Yunnan is referred to as Yunnan; Guizhou is referred to as Guizhou; Guangxi is referred to as Gui; Guangdong is referred to as Guangdong; Jiangxi is referred to as Jiangxi; Fujian is referred to as Fujian; Zhejiang abbreviated as Wu; Anhui is referred to as Anhui; Jiangsu abbreviated as Huai; Nanzhili is referred to as Nanjing.

Two capitals and twenty-two provinces.

In this way, the land of Yanyun is from Beizhili to Ningxia, which is the land of Yanyun; The land of Yan Zhao is the land of Yan Zhao from the north to Rehe, which is the land of Yan Zhao.

Shaanxi and Shanxi are the good of Qin and Jin.

Zhejiang is the land of Wuyue, Jiangsu is the land of Huaisi, Hubei is the land of Xiangfan, Sichuan is the land of Bashu, Shandong is the land of Qilu, and Zhejiang is the land of Wuyue.

North Korea is abbreviated as Han, which is taken from the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period.

When Jiaozhi is recovered, there will be Gujiaozhou, referred to as Jiao.

And Hubei is the land of Xiangfan, which can also be referred to as Xiang, and it is also ancient Jingzhou, referred to as Jing, but Hubei is also an ancient Hubei country, and the level of Hubei is a little higher than that of Jing Xiangfan, as for Chu, Zhu Qiyu is very useful.

"In the future, you can use abbreviations."

Naturally, the courtiers had no opinion.

The emperor always likes to change things around, so let him be.

"Zhuqing, have you seen this island?"

Zhu Qiyu pointed to Tsushima Island: "This place is sandwiched between Korea and the Japanese Kingdom, and it is a strategic place, so we must take this island." ”

"It doesn't matter who's in charge now!"

"After taking Korea, immediately go south, take this island, and use this island as the center, build fortifications, hoard a lot of money and grain, and prepare for the capture of the Japanese kingdom!"

"And this island, Jeju Island is marked on the North Korean map."

Zhu Qiyu pointed to Jeju Island: "Once the war on Tsushima Island is not good, you can transfer it to this island." ”

"These two islands, which are horns of each other, can prevent the Japanese from entering Korea, and are also the bridgehead for us to attack the Japanese country."

The courtiers were not impressed.

The Ming Dynasty is not a sea power country, and even at this time, people have an extreme fear of the sea, no one has ever thought of conquering the sea, and there is no concept of a sea power country.

As long as Korea is controlled and the Japanese are landed, it will be easy to deal with the warships.

In a land war, no one is afraid of the Ming Dynasty.

"The provincial seat of North Korea is still Seoul, and the division of the specific prefecture is agreed upon by Wang Yue, Cheng Xin and others, and reported to the center."

Zhu Qiyu asked people to collect the map: "Tell Wang Yue that before Chinese New Year's Eve, Shun will recover all of North Korean Province." ”

"Send Sun Kefa to North Korea to serve as a ......"

If you don't send a bastard, how can you completely control North Korea?

"Let Wang Yue arrange it as he sees fit."

Zhu Qiyu said again: "Yao Qing, how about you say that I will move those Zhu family members who have been dismissed from the clan into a batch of North Korea?" ”

"Your Majesty, never!"

Yao Kui said: "North Korea Province is newly determined, the people are not convinced, if the person surnamed Zhu goes to North Korea, he will become the target of careerists, you can hand it over to Wang Yue, and in a few years, he will definitely present a complete and new North Korea to you." ”

Wang Yue's exploits in destroying the country are enough to be a marquis.

Zhu Qiyu bowed his head: "North Korea will do this first, Zhuqing, the matter of Jiangxi has been decided, and a total of 270 million taels of silver will be harvested." ”

This number made the courtier's jaw drop.

Jiangxi is really rich.

What about the richer Huai-Anhui provinces? And Nanjing, Zhejiang?

"The banks are set up well, and the exchange of silver coins by the private rich is very high, and I want to set up more banks, one in each prefecture this year, and every county next year, and other banks in the year after."

The courtiers were initially not optimistic about the bank, but the development was much more than expected.

"Qiu Jun published an economic theory in the newspaper, can you read it?" Zhu Qiyu said with a smile.

Qiu Jun is really talented.

He even put forward the theory of labor value, which expounded the essence of the economy and the relationship between labor and value.

Zhu Qiyu was stunned for a while, and he would really do what he liked.

Historically, Qiu Jun was an all-rounder, the first to create the theory of economic thought, and the economic thought created on the basis of science.

And now Qiu Jun, according to the economic arguments made by the government, has detached himself from the scientific thought and created a separate economic theory.

After it was published in the newspaper, it sparked a discussion in Shilin.

Heated discussions and heated debates in the newspapers.

On the basis of science, the physicist Chen Xianzhang actually stated the existence of the economy and the ultimate form of the economy.

Zhu Qiyu looked at it, this is not a planned economy!

What a weirdo this is!

Qiu Jun made a speech every month, adding branches and leaves to the original economic theory.

He jumped out of the circle of science, used ingenious economic ideas, explained the existence of economy, and debated with science.

Qiu Jun is also a great master of science, and the young Qiu Jun put forward a unique argument in science, which caused an uproar.

Qiu Jun is not only an all-rounder, but the apprentices he taught are also super talents, such as Xie Qian, Wang Wei, etc., such a person is just one chance away from becoming a saint like Wang Yangming.

Of course, Qiu Jun, who was in Jingtai's ninth year, did not reach the level of a great master of science.

But a genius is a genius, and he jumped out of the circle of science, began to discuss economics, wanted to create the way of economy, and asked questions with the way of economy.

Chen Xianzhang was not to be outdone, and used the principles of science to fight back against Qiu Jun.

The two of them wrote an article a month, and the newspaper printing was in short supply, which attracted the attention of the world's scholars, and the big troll Lian Gang, who was far away in Guangxi, actually wrote to the emperor and sent him a newspaper of Qiu Jun and Chen Xianzhang.

Pirated copies of Guangxi can't be bought.

It can be seen how fierce this economic battle has become.

"Your Majesty, although Qiu Jun is young, his thinking is old and spicy, and he has a unique way, and the old minister is ashamed of himself." Of course, Yao Kui paid attention.

Although Qiu Jun was suspected of pandering, it did not prevent him from starting a sect.

The emperor often said the word economic.

But it can't be explained, what is the economy? What can it be used for? Where does it end up?

Qiu Jun provided a theoretical basis for the economy.

Chen Xianzhang and Qiu Jun argued, and the two went back and forth, constantly enriching the existence of the economy.

Two supreme geniuses, the decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City.

actually talked about capitalism and socialism, although there are no two words, but Zhu Qiyu knows at a glance that these two meanings are these.

The physicists of the Ming Dynasty never disappoint.

"Qiu Jun is about to be sanctified."

Geng Jiuchou's mouth was quite sour: "When he completes his book, he will be able to accompany the Confucian Temple with this economy alone." ”

This is the highest vision of all literati, to accompany the Confucian Temple.

Qiu Jun, who is young, has expounded a complete economic system, as long as he is given another ten or twenty years, he will be able to create the economy together.

There is also Chen Xianzhang, the science that integrates the way of economy, I am afraid that it is necessary to get out of Zhu Zi's trap and find another way to make science shine again.

But Chen Xianzhang lost the opportunity after all, and he couldn't be sanctified by this.

But his achievements are definitely not low.

"I think that the way of the saint lies in the Gewu, who can create the Gewu, and the saint!" Zhu Qiyu said.

The courtier's eyes lit up, and then dimmed.

The next saint will be born among Hu Juren, Chen Xianzhang, Lou Liang, and even Wu and Bi.

And Gewu has another saint, and Jingtai Dynasty wants to produce three saints?

How prosperous should science be?

"The controversy over the economy is even more harmonious, and all the secretaries are all great talents, and they can also participate in the discussion, improve the economic theory, print it, and promulgate it to the world!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

"This year's Chongyang Literary Conference will include the study of economics, and I want to see how the masters of each faction explain the economy and how they can deduce the economy!"

Zhu Qiyu said seriously: "I want to see, what is the extreme of the economy?" What can it bring to Daming! ”

That's where it gets interesting.

The first half of the meeting was very successful, and the second half of the year will definitely be more interesting.

As long as the emperor doesn't get angry, it's still good.

"I have another idea, Zhuqing tastes and tastes."

Zhu Qiyu smiled: "Do you think that the paintings are too monotonous? The cookie-cutter paintings are only following the path of their predecessors, but there is no great innovation, and they do not go out of their own way. ”

"Should we diversify our paintings, don't stick to the works of our predecessors, always follow the predecessors, and never surpass the masters of our predecessors."

"The dynasty is full of vitality, why not go out of a new way of painting?"

"It's better to set up a winter day, set it up as the Lidong Calligraphy and Painting Festival, and gather painters and calligraphy masters from all over the world to gather in Beijing for a grand event."

"Calligraphy is the same, don't stick to the aesthetics of our predecessors, we want to walk out of the glory of our predecessors and create the glory of the Ming Dynasty."

"What do you think?"

That's a good thing.

Calligraphy and painting are elegant things, and the emperor's willingness to vigorously develop calligraphy and painting is a great thing for the country and the people.

During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong, calligraphy and painting developed greatly.

Now it is in decline.

If the emperor wants to restart calligraphy and painting, as long as he doesn't lose his mind, it will be a grand event.

The courtiers discussed, set up a calligraphy and painting festival, and held a grand event every year, which was interesting and meaningful, and the discussion was very intense.

But at this moment, the eunuch Hu Wenlin hurriedly came in: "Emperor, Mobei is in a hurry!" ”

Zhu Qiyu stretched out his hand.

The report was presented to Mao Sheng and Li Jin ensemble.

After reading it, Zhu Qiyu suddenly felt a toothache: "Hu Wenlin, you miss it." ”

Li Jin is in big trouble.

The Chechen Ministry that moved south was robbed by Li Jin, and if it was robbed, it was robbed, and as a result, the Chechen Ministry was attached to the table.

As soon as the above envoys arrived in Holin, Mao Sheng led his troops to rob the second batch of Chechen troops who moved south.

When Li Jin learned that the situation was not good, he sent troops north.

It just so happened that the main force of the Chechen Department went south, and when he learned that the two were strangled by the Ming Dynasty, he fought with Li Jin and Mao Sheng, and both sides had their own victories and defeats.

Chechnya actually invited the Warat tribes to go south, defeated Li Jin and Mao Sheng, and the two led the army to retreat back to Helin, and were defeated by Chechnya and fled back to Rehe.

Now the Chechen tribes are constantly attacking and disturbing the Rehe River.

"Your Majesty, this Chechen is not good."

Yao Kui frowned: "There are more than 100,000 male soldiers stationed in Rehe, Mao Sheng and Li Jin are all famous generals, but they can't beat Chechnya?" ”

The report is written in great detail.

Li Jin killed seven or eight thousand people, Mao Sheng killed tens of thousands of people, and the first big defeat was that the Chechen prisoners rebelled, resulting in the defeat of Li Jin and Mao Sheng.

The second time, it was the Warat tribes that were forced to withdraw from Helin.

For this he lost fifty or sixty thousand prisoners and countless goods.

"Rehe is safe, I built Rehe just to defend the Beijing Division, if this little attack can't be stopped, what's the use of building it?"

Zhu Qiyu wondered: "There are still so many soldiers in Mobei?" Where did it come from? ”

Last month, Li Jin and Mao Sheng proudly played the chapter, saying that Mobei is invincible for thousands of miles, and what kind of Chechnya came in the blink of an eye!

The Warat tribes? The tribes of Warat had already traveled west to seek refuge in the Golden Horde.

Why do you still run to Daming?

"Your Majesty, is something wrong with the Golden Horde in the west?" Yu Zijun said suddenly.

Zhu Qiyu frowned: "The Golden Horde has a civil war?" Da Ming didn't receive the news? Send a message to Chen You and ask Chen You to collect news about the Golden Horde! ”

"Your Majesty, if this so-called Chechen Ministry is a force separated from the internal strife of the Golden Horde, then its power is not strong."

Yu Zijun said: "Weichen thinks that he can order the Rehe army to fight a battle, cripple the Chechen department, and then surrender." ”

"As for the Warat tribes, they are just asking for money, we can use wealth to lure them, and then break them individually!"

"Since they have come from thousands of miles away, then stay in Daming as slaves."

Last year, Sun Yuanzhen crippled the Mongolian first department, and then surrendered.

But the courtiers were taught badly.

Now as soon as it is said that it will be surrendered, it will be crippled first.

"Yes!"

Zhu Qiyu is very confident in Rehe.

Rehe is a province built for war, and the concept of each city is based on war, and there are fortresses everywhere, except for soldiers and criminals, there is no good stubble.

No matter what strong soldiers go deep into Rehe, it is enough for them to drink a pot.

"The matter of Rehe is handed over to Mao Sheng and Li Jin to decide, and there is no need to report to the center."

Although there was an incident in which Song Weiqian's arbitrariness led to the defeat of the war.

But it did not change Zhu Qiyu's determination to authorize, he has always handed over the soldiers to whomever he wanted, and he completely delegated power, which was Emperor Jingtai's self-confidence.

"Where is Chen You?"

Zhu Qiyu suddenly asked, Hu Wenlin knelt on the ground and replied: "Back to the emperor, Governor Chen has sent troops from Ningxia, and the grain and grass have arrived in Gansu." ”

That's right.

At the beginning of September, Chen You had just selected 30,000 elite soldiers and left Ningxia.

On September 15, he arrived in Suzhou.

And the cavalry split 10,000 people in Yongchang, and Kou Shen waited here, leading these 10,000 people to enter Xining City.

Chen You and Kou Shen, the soldiers divided into two ways and quickly recovered Hami.

Meanwhile.

Qin Li, the eunuch of Gansu Town, was a guest in the Mawanhu Mansion.

Ji Jiancan's attitude towards Qin Li is very good.

Qin Li came from Hexi and brought a large number of gifts to Wanhu Mansion to negotiate the cession of several cities.

Daming wants to take Qinghai Lake as the boundary and divide it with the Ma Wanhu Mansion of Answer.

The city east of Qinghai Lake was delivered to the Ming Dynasty.

Qi Si Ji Jiancan did not quite agree with the land cut, the Ming Dynasty was already too powerful, they were worried that if they handed over the dangerous terrain to the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty would gain an inch and covet the land west of the river.

"Lord Zhenshou, my Wanhu Mansion is respectful to Your Majesty, and you rashly let Wanhu Mansion cut the land, I can't explain it to the people." Silk complained.

Qin Li knew that this mission was not so easy.

Especially after the Ming Dynasty annexed Hami, it would make the natives of Dosdusi feel terrified.

Although it is Duosi, in fact, it is only nominally subordinate to the Ming Dynasty, they are all local emperors, and they are traitors, and the emperor has no problem with them.

Before Chen You annexed Hami, he had to occupy a few cities and close the west gate of Gansu, and for this reason, he did not hesitate to tear his face with the Ma Wanhu Mansion.

This is the result of his discussion with Kou Shen, and he will take these cities at all costs.

As long as the Ming Dynasty quickly annexes Hami and covets Turpan, how about these toasts who dare to take the Ming Dynasty even if they are afraid?

Daming used strong soldiers to tell you that your resistance is a fart!

If we do not take the east of Qinghai Lake, the west gate of Gansu cannot be closed, and we will not be able to seek development with peace of mind.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty wants to send down the Holy Grace, and open the Fang City on the border, so that you can communicate with the Ming Dynasty."

Silk is the commander of the Ming Dynasty.

What's in these poor places?

Where you can't afford to eat, the terrain is still high, and there is nothing in the Gobi Mountains and Wilderness.

Opening a trade is a loss for the Ming Dynasty.

"This ......," Syll hesitated.

"Your Majesty also allowed you to enter Beijing for the Hajj."

"Let's put it mildly, you have nothing in this poor and remote place."

"What's the point of being a hereditary magistrate here?"

"If you are willing to cut the soil to Your Majesty, you go to Daming, Your Majesty will reward you as a Beijing official, no better than you eating sand here?"

Qin Li is telling the truth, this place is really poor.

He went all the way to the west, and what he saw was extreme poverty, not to mention that it was not comparable to Beizhili, even with Gansu.

Although she is Mongolian, she is a Sinicized local official.

His fief is on the shore of Qinghai Lake, very close to the Ming Dynasty, and he trades frequently with each other, and the degree of sinicization is also high.

Moreover, after the collapse of the Golden Horde a few years later, Duosi continued to war, and they would beg the Ming Dynasty to surrender and ask for annexation.

The Haikou mentioned in the late Ming Dynasty is the Haikou on Qinghai Lake.

Those who are on the sea are called Wakos.

Qin Li was not in a hurry, according to the plan, Chen Youhui would enter Hami from Suzhou in early October, and Kou Shen would take the first step to attack Hami from Xining and contain the main force of Hami.

So he still has time to merge vertically and horizontally.

And in North Korea.

Wang Yue scattered his soldiers out and conquered one city after another.

And he himself, leading the main force, surrounded but did not fight.

Gu Naha was also a human spirit, and he shrank in the camp to have fun, and he did not guard against Wang Yue, but the people in Seoul were anxious.

The Jurchens did not fight, and Wang Yue did not fight.

We can't sleep every day, what are we trying to do!

"Da Ming wolf ambition!"

Zheng Lintoe was very angry: "That Wang Yue must be attacking the southern part of my Korea and taking the opportunity to annex my country." ”

"Be quiet!"

Han Minghun was ten years old and the weather was hot, but he was dressed very thickly, had a serious illness, and said bitterly: "Now North Korea is a fish on the chopping board, there is no choice." ”

"The Ming Emperor is so domineering and unreasonable, the Ming Dynasty will be destroyed by his hands!" Zheng Lin said angrily.

Han Minghun also thinks so.

Emperor Jingtai is a copy of Emperor Yang of Sui.

It is precisely such an emperor that they have a chance, as long as Emperor Jingtai is killed and the Ming Dynasty collapses, they will be able to establish themselves as kings in Korea.

"The envoy is still rummaging?" Zheng Lin's pupils were full of sadness.

Han Minghun sighed: "We are ashamed of Jun En." ”

Cheng Xin sent someone to dig up the five palaces and go in to find Li Yao, who wanted to see people in life and corpses in death.

"Zijun, can the old man believe you?" Zheng Lintoe said suddenly.

Han Minghun smiled bitterly: "We are all grasshoppers on a rope, what can't we believe?" ”

Zheng Lintoe hesitated slightly, but still said: "Actually, Your Majesty has contacted the old man ......."

Suddenly, Han Minghun showed a look of horror: "You, you ......"

"Your Majesty has never failed the old man, and the old man does not dare to fail Your Majesty!"

Zheng Lintoe said seriously: "The old man knows that there is no suspense about the annexation of North Korea to the Ming Dynasty. ”

"However, North Korea is North Korea's after all, not Ming's!"

"The old man hopes that Your Majesty is alive, and one day, he will try his courage and rebuild North Korea!"

Han Minghun trembled a little at his fingertips.

He had a godsend in front of him.

As long as Zheng Lintoe is arrested and tortured, Li Yao's traces can be learned and handed over to Cheng Xin, which is a great achievement.

However, if he hid Li Jin, as long as he escaped the catastrophe, he would be able to gain more.

Han Minghun stood at the crossroads, unable to choose.

"Zijun, does the old man know what you're thinking?"

Zheng Lintoe said: "Everyone has selfish intentions, but since the old man dares to tell you, he is ready to give up everything." ”

"Zijun, no matter what you have planned, you must save Your Majesty!"

"He's not kind to you!"

Now the only one who can save Li Jin is Han Minghun .

During this time, Han Minghun personally supervised the war and won great prestige among the military and civilians, and there were many people in the army who were willing to serve Han Minghun .

Even if Wang Yue entered the city, he would have to treat Han Minghun as a guest.

"Brother Boju, do you know what you're doing?" Han Minghun was visibly nervous.

To keep Li Jin, the most difficult thing is how to explain to Cheng Xin!

Cheng Xin and Luo Qi are not easy to fool.

There is also a Wang Yue outside the city!

Wang Yue can fight from Yizhou to Seoul in less than a month, who dares to say that he is not a famous general?

Can such an amazing and brilliant character be fooled?

At the same time, if Li Yao is handed over, he will be able to make the most profit now, but he will be pinched by Daming in the future.

On the contrary, Li Jin will be the most profitable in the future.

"I know, the old man has nothing to repay Jun's kindness, and he is willing to die to repay Jun's kindness." Zheng Lintoe said seriously.

He has a strong sense of North Korean honor.

When Korea is established again, the name of the country will be changed back to Goryeo, and North Korea will never be used.

Because the name North Korea was given by Ming Taizu!

This is also the reason why Zhu Qiyu did not change the name of the Korean province, which was given by Emperor Taizu.

North Korea, from the "Great Biography of Shangshu" in the "Bright Sun", meaning elegant, and it is an ancient name, which was ruled by Emperor Taizu.

"Good! The little brother is willing to help Brother Boju! ”

After repeated consideration, Han Minghun decided to take a risk.
