Chapter 958: Where is the right place to build a military port?
The capital, the imperial study.
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen has been correcting the music for decades.
Just open a piece of music and take a look.
"Wang Gongbi, the political envoy of Nanjing's right-hand cloth, distributed the trough powder to the people without authorization, causing chaos at the Anqing wharf and the loss of trough grain amounting to 8,000 stones."
As soon as he saw this, Zhu Youzhen's mood was like getting on a jumping machine.
"How can it be?" Zhu Youzhen was furious: "Now that the imperial court is so poor, Liaodong uses troops, and the Central Plains suppresses bandits, and everywhere needs money and grain, and Wang Gong Bi'an dares to distribute the grain at will?" Doing such a rebellious thing? ”
Cao Huachun thought to himself: My emperor, can you get angry after reading the recital? The second half of this piece is obviously saying that the situation was urgent at that time, and the water thieves killed it, and seeing that the grain in the tank was not guaranteed, they simply gave it to the people.
Zhu Youzhen: "I'm angry with me, and I'll give this prince Bi to me to take care of." ”
Cao Huachun couldn't help but speak, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, there is still half a section behind the recital." ”
Only then did Zhu Youzhen be patient and read the recital.
Then, it's embarrassing.
Forget it, hurry up and turn over a new piece to hide the embarrassment.
Zhu Youzhen picked up another piece of music, and when he saw it, Shi Kefa came to Anqing to take up the post of right senator and reorganize the Jiangbei army. As soon as he took office, he led the family soldiers to defeat the Huangmei water thieves and the Taiping King, and also led the family and the militia to pursue the thief army, and eliminated the thief army's paradise village, and beat the thief army to the north in embarrassment.
Zhu Youzhen's mood was as if he was on a jet machine.
"Shi Kefa did a good job." Zhu Youzhen was overjoyed, and now he could perfectly deal with the embarrassment he had just now, he played the chapter and said: "Demote the right political envoy Si Wang Gongbi by one grade, transfer him back to Nanjing, and let Shi Kefa take over the military affairs of Jiangbei with full authority." ”
Cao Huachun secretly thought: The emperor finally handled it like a serious emperor this time.
"That's right, Your Majesty." Cao Huachun lowered his voice and said, "Qin Fan sent someone to deliver a letter. ”
"Qin Fan?" Zhu Youzhen remembered, isn't it Zhu Cunji? A few years ago, Zhu Cunji had an unpleasant quarrel with the civil officials because of the robbery of fertilizer, and even dispatched the dead to rush the fertilizer truck, which was taken by Jinyiwei. Zhu Cunji handed over 50,000 taels of silver to help with the disaster, and Zhu Youzhen spared him.
I remember this very well.
"What is Qin Fan making trouble again? Who are you bullying again? ”
Cao Huachun said in a low voice: "Qin Fan seems to have been bullied this time......"
He read the letter revised by Zhu Cunji Demon.
After listening to this, Zhu Youzhen rolled his eyes angrily: "This old bustard woman in Qinglou is too ignorant, right?" Qin Fan is a dignified son, what happened to buy him a few Qinglou girls to go back to sing songs? She still dares to throw her face and not sell it? ”
Cao Huachun said in a low voice: "She is an old bustard in a green building, and she has no such guts, she must have the support of civil officials behind her." The Qin clan is far away in Xi'an, and the mountains are high and the king's mansion is far away. The officials who supported her were not afraid at all. ”
Zhu Youzhen snorted: "These civil officials are too much, but they have been making trouble, and Qin Shizi has never been able to attack the knighthood, and he is still forty years old, and he is still a prince." There is no King Qin in King Qin's mansion, how ugly! Now these civil officials are getting more and more troublesome, and even Qin Fan has to make a hindrance when he buys a few girls? ”
Cao Huachun smiled awkwardly.
Zhu Youzhen: "Do you really want to be a royal face?" For the sake of a few Qinglou girls, they all came to me, it's too infamous. You send someone to Suzhou for a trip, deal with this matter quietly, and let the old bustard obediently sell all the girls to Qin Fan, don't make a big fuss. ”
Cao Huachun: "Obey!" ”——
At noon, Shi Lang finished today's ideological and political class, and walked to the food group with a tired body.
Let him practice martial arts for half a day, he won't be tired, but in the upper liberal arts, he is too tired to do it. The mental tiredness made his whole person a little trance, swaying, walked into the canteen, served a meal, and gobbled it up.
Just as he was eating, he suddenly felt a shadow flickering in front of him, and Shi Kefa sat down across the table from him, and he actually had a side dish in his hand.
Shi Lang was taken aback: "Ah, Master Shi, why did you come to the barracks for dinner?" ”
Shi Kefa: "Come over and have a meal, I like the luncheon meat here." ”
Shi Lang was overjoyed: "I like it too." ”
Of course, a person like Shi Kefa can't come to the barracks just to get a meal, he came here today, but he came with the task given by Tianzun.
After a round of Tianzun's instructions in his mind, Shi Kefa suddenly asked, "Xiao Shi, you grew up on the coast of Fujian, right?" Since I was a child, I have learned a lot about things on the ocean. ”
Shi Lang hurriedly said: "Yes, the kid was born in Fujian, and he has been playing on the coast since he was a child, and he has heard a lot of stories about pirates, Westerners, merchant ships, and so on. ”
Shi Kefa laughed hesitantly: "Then the official is going to test you, if you are asked to choose a base at sea as a secret military port, where will you choose?" ”
This question really made Shi Lang stunned.
As a Fujianese, his first reaction was, of course, Yizhou Island.
However, he immediately reacted that there are now many Westerners on Yizhou Island, especially the red-haired people, who have built a chicken coop city on the island. The merchant ships of the Westerners, centered on the chicken coop city, radiated to the entire southeast coastal area.
If you also go to Yizhou Island to build a military port, you will definitely have to make trouble with Westerners, how can you call it a "secret military port"?
I'm afraid that while it is still under construction, the Westerners' ships will come to visit every once in a while.
Shi Lang thought about it seriously for a while, and then said cautiously: "I will choose Zhoushan Island." ”
Shi Kefa is secretly happy in his heart, Zhoushan Island? It is the same as the tentative place in Tianzun's mind, and this kid really has some ability.
Shi Kefa made a picture of him: "What are the advantages and disadvantages of Zhoushan Island, you can analyze and listen." ”
Shi Lang: "Zhoushan Island has a natural deep-water port, which can accommodate large ships, and all kinds of sea ships can rest assured and bold to anchor there without worrying about running aground. ”
"Zhoushan Island has been abandoned by the Ming Dynasty, and there are no Western pirates peeping, so you can easily keep the secret, this is the second."
Shi Kefa understood now, this kid has something.
What Tianzun said, this kid can actually say it.
Shi Kefa: "Then according to what Ling said, we can go to Jianjun Gangluo now?" ”
Shi Lang shook his head: "My lord, it definitely won't work now." ”
Shi Kefa: "Oh? Why? ”
Shi Lang: "Zhoushan Island is now a hiding place for pirates, in addition to the main island, there are countless small islands, the island is full of pirates, if you want to establish a military port on Zhoushan Island, you need to suppress the bandits first." ”
