Chapter 80 Build a navy and rebuild the white-rod army

Beijing

Ganqing Palace.

Zhu Youjian has been thinking about one thing recently, which is the extremely rampant corruption issue of the Ming Dynasty and the issue of staying in Nanjing.

It can be said that the officials who stayed in Nanjing were basically protected by wealthy businessmen and gentry.

He did nothing to the people and made no contribution to the Ming Dynasty.

After the fall of Nanjing, their best performance was to fight for power and internal struggle.

Even at the critical moment of life and death of a country, there is still internal struggle.

After an official investigates or offends the wealthy businessmen and gentry, they only need a letter.

Not only will everything be fine, but it will also cause the officials who investigate them to lose their posts and dismiss.

After Xiao Huachun and others assassinated many bandit leaders, the army led by Li Yan and Yan Yingyuan defeated the enemy and swept through the obstacles and swept across the thousands of troops.

The bandits of all walks of life either fled in sight or surrendered.

At this time, the backbone of the Ming Dynasty summoned by Zhu Youjian had also arrived in the capital.

Ah Qing entered the imperial study and interrupted Zhu Youjian's meditation:

"Your Majesty, Jinyiwei came to report that the people you summoned had arrived in the capital last night."

Zhu Youjian was overjoyed and picked up the teacup and took a sip:

"It's here, it's here so soon. I'll send an order to come to the Imperial Study room to see me immediately."

"Abide by the order"

"Zheng Chenggong, Qin Liangyu, Zhang Huangyan, Mu Tianbo, He Tengjiao, Zhang Mingzhen, Huang Degong and others meet the emperor."

After half a stick of incense, the seven people entered the imperial study and paid a visit to the emperor.

These famous national heroes in later generations were almost always rookies with no fame at this time.

Of course, except for Duke of Qian, Mu Tianbo and Qin Liangyu, these two were already well-known at this time.

Zhu Youjian smiled and nodded:

"Everyone is flat, you are all elites of my Ming Dynasty, so I'm a guest."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After the seven people sat down, Zhu Youjian looked at everyone carefully.

Zheng Chenggong is still a young man, and Qin Liangyu is already covered in white hair at this time.

Looking at the famous heroine in front of me, I remember that she was still fighting for the country at the age of 70.

Zhu Youjian couldn't help but feel sad and asked casually:

"Qin Aiqing, I want to ask you if you are Gui Geng this year?"

Qin Liangyu hurriedly stood up and saluted:

"Report to the emperor, I am 68 years old this year. Please rest assured that the old minister can still be loyal to the country for a few years until the end of his life."

Qin Liangyu misunderstood Zhu Youjian's meaning, and she thought the emperor disliked him for being too old.

Of course, Zhu Youjian could hear Qin Liangyu's consciousness until she misunderstood herself, so she laughed:

"Don't get me wrong with this, I will be the pillars of my Ming Dynasty in the future, and of course you will be no exception.

I want to hear what you think about the current situation of my Ming Dynasty. I can speak freely, and I will not blame you."

"emperor……"

It was Qin Liangyu who was the first to express his opinion:

"Emperor, although bandits are rampant, I think the Eastern abduction is the most threatening existence in our Ming Dynasty. We must take great precautions for their wolfish ambitions."

Cao Tengjiao:

"Your Majesty, I believe that the bandits in front of me must also find a way to eliminate them. If we don't wipe them out, our Ming Dynasty will never have peace, and it will be even more difficult to distract ourselves from the east invasion."

...

Everyone expressed their views on the current situation in the Ming Dynasty.

Although there are some differences, Zhu Youjian knew that they were all sincerely considering the Ming Dynasty.

They are all military generals, so of course they will not talk about people's livelihood and commerce.

Zheng Chenggong has been listening to their expressions carefully, but he doesn't say a word.

After the others finished speaking, Zhu Youjian's eyes turned to the young man:

"Zheng Sen, why don't you speak? Do you have different opinions from others?"

Zheng Chenggong was still calling Zheng Sen at this time. When he heard the emperor's question, he hurriedly stood up and saluted:

"Report to the emperor, Caomin is located on the southeast coast and is not very familiar with the situation inside and outside the pass, so he dare not speak irresponsible. He also asked the emperor to forgive his crime."

"Haha, I will not blame anyone who is loyal to the Ming Dynasty. This will show that you are open-minded and do not compete for fame with others."

"The emperor understands that if he has the opportunity to serve the country, he will devote himself to his entire life until he dies."

Zheng Chenggong was so moved that he fell to the ground.

He had never seen a high-ranking official so much as he had ever seen a high-ranking official. What a great honor it would be to be summoned by the emperor today.

Zhu Youjian stood up and helped Zheng Chenggong up and said solemnly:

"Hurry up and calm down, you will call Zheng Chenggong in the future. I will rebuild the Ming Navy and now I will be appointed as the governor of the navy. I hope you will not let my expectations down."

"What? An unknown junior was actually appointed by the emperor as the governor of the Ming Dynasty's naval army? What is this operation?"

Zhu Youjian's decision not only made Ah Qing open his mouth, but even Qin Liangyu and others were extremely shocked.

Zheng Chenggong was stunned on the spot and didn't react for a long time. It was incredible.

Seeing that Zheng Chenggong did not react for a moment, Qin Liangyu gently pulled his clothes:

"Mr. Zheng, thank you very much!"

Under Qin Liangyu's reminder, Zheng Chenggong woke up from his dream and hurriedly crawled on the ground and kowtowed heavily:

"Zheng Chenggong received the order and thanked the emperor for his kindness. Zheng Chenggong had no choice but to make the Ming Navy famous and repay the emperor's kindness..."

"Well, let's just be calm. I believe in you. After the whole country is unified, I will personally set foot on your Navy ship and travel around the world!"

"The Emperor's Holy Spirit"

Qin Liangyu and everyone stood up to bless the emperor with all his wishes, and they also wanted to see the Navy general Ming flag planted all over the world.

Zhu Youjian temporarily suppressed his inflated desire. The Ming Dynasty is still in crisis now, so it is more realistic to solve the current situation first.

Next, Zhu Youjian passed the order:

"Huang Degong, you will lead your army to surrender to Zuo Liangyu and temporarily become his deputy commander. If you try every means to gain a foothold, when the time is right, I will hand over his hundreds of thousands of troops to you to lead. Remember, if you say this today, no one can spread it."

"Abide by the order"

Next, Zhu Youjian said to Qin Liangyu:

"Qin Gaoming, you have fought for me for the Ming Dynasty all your life. I really can't bear to work harder you anymore. However, the Ming Dynasty is short of talents now, so I'm still going to work harder you once."

Qin Liangyu hurriedly stood up and saluted:

"Your Majesty, it's wrong for you to say this. As the wife of the Ming Dynasty, I will take the salary of the country and be loyal to the country. If you have something to say, Qin Liangyu can still fight for two years."

Zhu Youjian sincerely admired Qin Liangyu, the heroine. He stood up and supported Qin Liangyu, and asked her to sit back and said with a smile:

"I don't want you to go into battle to kill the enemy. From today on, you will be the governor of Sichuan and the wife of the first-rank imperial edict.

I will allocate two million taels of silver to you, and you will go back and recruit soldiers and horses to revive the White Pole Army.

You can fight or talk about Zhang Xianzhong. As long as he put down his weapons, I will divide him into kings, but if there is a condition, I will transfer Li Dingguo to the capital to me."

""Old minister Qin Liangyu, thank you Lord Long's kindness, the emperor, don't worry, as long as I, Qin Liangyu, have a breath, I will definitely not disappoint you."

Qin Liangyu was so excited. She felt that Daming was as kind as a mountain to her family, and she wanted to kneel down and thank her again.

Zhu Youjian hurriedly supported her, a white-haired and loyal Ming Dynasty. How could he bear to let Qin Liangyu kneel down?

After arranging Qin Liangyu, Zhang Huangyan was appointed as the navy commander-in-chief by Zhu Youjian.

We will fully assist Zheng Chenggong in building the Ming Navy and the base of Fujian.

Zhu Youjian would not treat other people badly, and the fact that the civil servants in the Ming Dynasty will not happen now.

Military generals will maintain national stability, and civil officials will govern the country!
