"If there is a war with Timur, hundreds of thousands of military and civilian transfers must rely on the Western Regions Province as the rear, and Wailumu can only become a transit station, so we have a lot to do."

Jiang Gui said excitedly.

Da Ming is too big.

It's so big that it's out of reach, and it's different from other regions.

The grasslands and deserts are also large.

But Daming has a city and a population, not a desert and no man's land, or a large area of land where only a small number of people live.

From a village to a village, from a county town to a county seat, from a state capital to a state capital, the Ming Dynasty is big and the civilization is splendid, far beyond people's imagination.

"This is an opportunity not to be missed."

"The most bitter thing is Senan Province, there is no way to fight at all, and the big training twice a year is just a waste of effort, and you can't get war merits."

"Liaodong Province is no longer good, and there are no fighters there, the country's energy has been focused on the southwest in the past two years, and how many generals have relied on the work of recovering Jiaozhi, and we don't even have a hair."

Ren Li was full of complaints.

Although the name is polite, when it comes to speaking, it is the most coarse of the few.

"That's pretty much the way it will be in the future, where there is a war, which side can get the merits, we can't compare to the Beijing camp."

The treatment of the Beijing camp was the same as that of the border army.

However, the soldiers of the border army were keen to participate in the selection of the Beijing camp and become the soldiers of the capital.

"Only the soldiers in Beijing will not miss the exploits of any side, but we can only defend one side, how can the future be compared to the other party."

The lord of the previous imperial court issued it, and the soldiers of the Beijing camp took half of it, and the rest of the places were divided into half.

"Inevitably."

"Can't there be a war in the south, and our soldiers here will be transferred to the south by thousands of miles, right? Although it is convenient to have a train, it can kill people if they are not adapted. ”

"And the environment in the South is very different from that in the North, and the way of fighting is also different."

"Then why can Jingying?"

"The soldiers of the Beijing camp come from the north and south of the river, and they are dispatched in the middle and have adapted to it."

A few people, you say a word, I say a word.

Zhang Fu came to the Western Regions by order, and the local soldiers smelled the smell of war, not only did they not fear, but they all geared up.

The new generation of generals is screaming and wanting to get military merits.

Zhang Fu brought 6,000 soldiers.

Led by Liu Zhen and Huo Zhen respectively, the army was settled, and in the barracks, Liu Zhen and Huo Zhen came to Zhang Fu's office.

During the day, Zhang Fu met with local officials and generals and said hello.

"The morale of the local army is high."

Liu Zhen said with a smile.

Many generals came to greet him and asked about the situation of the war and whether it was going to be a war.

They are all sons and daughters in the army, their comrades, military preparations, they can't hide their eyes, and they all want to take the lead, so Liu Zhen couldn't help but sigh.

"Compared with the noble system formulated by the sage, the noble system reformed by His Royal Highness the Imperial Prince has made many nobles in the capital not very satisfied, but I didn't expect it to be local, but everyone is looking forward to it."

"Of course."

"The old nobles are full of food and have a big appetite, and small fish and shrimp can't make them interested, but the generals in the border areas are different, they are hungry wolves, and they can eat anything."

Huo Zhen said heartily.

The 2,000 Mongol knights he brought with him did not participate in the war to recover Cochin, and they also did not catch anything.

"I have to write a letter to His Royal Highness."

Zhang Fu said calmly.

"What's wrong? So fast. Liu Zhen wondered, they had just arrived in the Western Regions Province, how could something go on.

"It's a good thing that the soldiers in the border areas are eager to fight, but if they don't get too far, if they are not controlled, maybe they will have the courage to start a war in person and harm the interests of the Ming Dynasty."

"Zhang Shuai is too careful, no one dares to do this at the moment." Liu Zhen said with a smile.

"You don't understand."

Zhang Fu sighed.

The war in the northwest was not wanted by the imperial grandson and the imperial court, and they only came to prepare in advance.

The imperial grandson sent a mission again, which has already explained the imperial grandson's intentions, mainly to appease Timur, rather than forcing the other party to turn his face.

If the news spreads, or if the generals in the northwest know the truth, I am afraid that most people will be disappointed.

Just as Huo Zhen said.

Too many generals did not have enough to eat.

His Royal Highness the Emperor Sun has restructured the nobles, although the rights are much smaller, but it is also a real noble system, and the lowest baron can also guarantee the title of three generations and a hundred years of inheritance.

People always want to struggle.

The people wanted to get rich and become officials, and the generals also wanted to become nobles.

The strength of the Ming Dynasty aroused the ambitions of the soldiers.

But the direction of the imperial court's governance still hopes to open up the southeast, not the northwest, and it can't be led by local generals, or destroy the national policy of the Ming Dynasty and let the Ming Dynasty temporarily change its plan.

At this time.

Guizhou.

Mountains are connected to mountains.

"Azu, are you going to the capital?"

Inside the hospital.

The girl followed behind the old man, who was dressed in a short shirt, holding a fishing basket in his left hand and a fishing net in his right hand, like an ordinary fisherman, but behind him two sturdy men.

"Yes, you are obedient at home, wait for Grandpa to come back from the capital, and bring you something fun."

"Azu."

"You can take me with you."

"Hahaha."

"No."

The old man laughed.

The men behind him couldn't help but smile when they watched the young lady in the family coquettish to their grandfather.

"General."

"General."

"Father."

After entering the house, several adults gathered around, and one of them glanced at the little girl, and the little girl pouted and left unhappy, knowing that her father was going to discuss something important with her grandfather.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suddenly summoned his father back to the capital to report on his work, is there anyone who impeached his father?"

The old man's son worried.

's father has been in Guizhou for 20 years, is it that the court is suspicious of his father, and the middle-aged man is worried.

"Gu Gong can't leave."

"Everyone is convinced of Gu Gong, the court can't know people, I suggest that we jointly send a letter to the court and ask the court to keep Gu Gong."

"Yes."

Said two men dressed as toast.

"Nonsense."

The old man suddenly snorted.

Whether it is a Han official or a local official, they are all quiet, which shows the prestige of the old man.

"I am an official of the imperial court, no matter where I go, I should follow the dispatch of the imperial court, how can you be self-reminded, and you have not listened to the teachings of the past few years."

The crowd was silent.

"Gu Gong, your kindness to our Guizhou will never be forgotten."

Toast's face was full of reluctance, and he said movingly.

People are not heartless.

The old man was also moved.

Guizhou is too poor.

The registered population is only 100,000, and the establishment of Guizhou as a province is very controversial in the imperial court, and in the end, it is His Royal Highness the Imperial Prince who makes a decision to upgrade Guizhou to a province and enjoy the resources of the imperial court.

Guizhou has a smaller population than Yunnan, and Yunnan has 260,000.

"The imperial court has changed a lot over the years, and the old man also needs to go to the imperial court to inform Guizhou about the matter, Guizhou is too poor, and Yunnan next door has begun to develop greatly, and if you want to make the people rich, the support of the imperial court is indispensable."

The crowd had nothing to say, so they gave up on consolation.

True.

As the old man said, Guizhou is indeed too poor, and the registered population is only 100,000, and many of them are immigrants from the mainland.

Actually, there are only a few cities.

The huge Guizhou is still a wild area, with a sparse population and backward productivity.

A few days passed.

When the people of Guizhou learned that General Gu Cheng was leaving Guizhou, they came to Gu's mansion one after another, begging General Gu Cheng not to leave, hoping that General Gu Cheng would continue to stay in Guizhou and govern Guizhou.

"The king's command cannot be disobeyed."

The old man was old and strong, and he rode out of his home early in the morning and walked out of Guizhou

It can be described as 100,000 mountains, over the mountains and mountains, extremely hard.

From Guizhou to the newly established Hunan Province, as if two worlds, although Hunan Province only has a population of more than 2 million, but it is also more than ten times that of Guizhou, has been connected by train.

"Is this the train?"

The old man sighed.

Personally accompanied by local officials, the old man boarded the steam engine train on the platform.

"Woo woo woo~"

The train sounded.

"Click, click."

The first half of the goods are pulled, and the second half is transported by people, and people and goods are transported.

"Da Ming has changed a lot."

The farther north, the more cities passed, the more dense the countryside became, and everywhere was full of civilization, and the old man found the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, and the old man showed a relieved smile on his face.

"Old Gu, we are in the mountains, and we almost forgot about the outside."

Several of the juniors were dumbfounded.

"yes, so let you go out and walk a little more, and increase your knowledge."

Beiping Social Daily.

The news of the entry of Gu Cheng, the chief military officer of Guizhou, into Beijing was published, and the newspaper recorded the great achievements of this veteran general at length.

"Guizhou, the most low-key province in the Ming Dynasty, is often overlooked."

"I, the old general of the Ming Dynasty, entered Guizhou from the sixth year of Hongwu, pacified the Tusi, and divided the six governors of the three states."

"Stabilize Guizhou, ensure local peace for 20 years, so that all the Tusi in Guizhou smoothly returned to the governance of the political secretary and the judge, and became the interior of the Ming Dynasty, and the old general Gu Cheng has made great contributions to the country and the nation."

"If the old general Song Sheng is the Dinghai Divine Needle of my Ming Dynasty in the northwest region, stabilized the northwest of the Ming Dynasty, and guaranteed the people's aspirations, then the old general Gu Cheng is the Optimus Prime of Guizhou."

The old man has just entered the capital.

The railway station in the capital rushed to greet the old man with a large number of ordinary people and civil and military officials.

"Old General Gu, you have worked hard."

Students chanted with flags.

Gu Cheng saw the scene on the platform on the train, and he didn't know what was going on at first, but after the explanation of the train staff, he knew that he was here to greet him.

"How can the old man dare to receive such an honor."

"His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun said it personally, and all major newspapers have published the exploits of the old general, and the people of the entire capital are cheering for the old general, welcoming your arrival."

The old man had never faced such a scene, and he was a little uneasy and stunned, but he couldn't help but feel relieved in his heart.

I learned that General Gu Cheng had arrived.

Zhu Gaochi met this person for the first time, along with Zhu Di.

Gu Cheng has been in Guizhou for 20 years, and he does not kill and kill, let alone rely on the strong force to bully the weak.

Historically, this person was captured by Zhu Di during the Battle of Jingjing.

In the first year of Yongle, Zhu Di released this person and returned to Guizhou to re-guard Guizhou.

When the local people heard the news, they happily went out to worship, and the rebels all returned, and the local people set up a shrine for him in Jingning.

Zhu Gaochi should be of great use for such talents.

"Guizhou's stability and development today are inseparable from the merits of General Gu Cheng." Zhu Gaochi spoke highly of it.

"I dare not be ashamed."

Gu Cheng belongs to the kind of general who is an outsider in the civil war and an insider in the foreign war.

When fighting with the rebellious toasts, he never lost, but he was defeated in the hands of Zhu Di and was captured by Zhu Di, but Zhu Gaochi liked generals like Gu Cheng very much.

Zhu Gaochi personally stepped forward to take Gu Cheng's hand, and saw that Zhu Di's eyebrows were raised.

The son's behavior has won the hearts of many people, and the routine is very powerful.

Really.

Although Gu Cheng saw Zhu Gaochi for the first time, he was moved by Zhu Gaochi's grand courtesy.

Zhu Gaochi is sincere.

Yunnan, Guizhou and other regions are not naturally united with the Central Plains.

A general like Gu Cheng, who has paid meticulously for many years, has mainly focused on education, brought civilization and productivity to the local area, and relocated a large number of people to the local area to encourage local large-scale production.

Those who have personally been to the southwest and northwest can clearly feel the difference between the local area.

In fact, the Northwest is the same, with veteran generals like Song Sheng, who have also been carefully governed for decades.

However, after hundreds of years of sowing discord in the Qing Dynasty, local contradictions were intensified.

This is true not only in the Northwest region, but also in Guangdong.

The Han nationality has been divided into Hakka and Tujia, and the two factions are incompatible, and they have become mortal enemies for generations, not to mention the northwest region, where the biggest tragedy in the world has occurred, which makes people dare not talk about it in detail.

This is the difference between governance and bondage.

Later generations often put the Qing Dynasty's fetters on the head of the Ming Dynasty, which can be described as a big joke in the world, and even the facts can't be seen clearly.

Only by clarifying history and getting to the root of the problem can we hold our heads high, shake off the ideological shackles, and make great strides forward and develop.

"Old General Gu is willing to move?"

"Wherever the court tells the ministers to go, the ministers will go."

Gu Cheng said without hesitation.

Zhu Gaochi clapped his hands and laughed.

He needs a general like Gu Cheng who can govern both civil and military affairs and is good at educating local generals, not a general who only knows how to slaughter.

Southeast Asia, what is needed is Gu Cheng.

It can exert power and virtue.

The combination of virtue and virtue is the king's way.
