Chapter 249: Steady and Steady
On August 15, 2018, the third year of Tianqi, this day was for the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the recovery of Shenyang. The good news from Liaoyang has been passed back, making this festival more festive. ◇↓◇↓小◇↓小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小
Early in the morning, a group of civil and military ministers entered the Meridian Gate and came to the Huangji Hall.&1t;/p>
The emperor took the initiative to ask them to attend the morning court, but the number of times was really not very long. At present, the emperor was already diligent in his ability to attend the morning court three days. There was even a precedent for the morning court to be held for half a month before.&1t;/p>
Well-informed people already know that the Ming army recovered the Liaohe Plain in Liaodong.&1t;/p>
Everyone knows what this means. The most core thing is the benefit.&1t;/p>
After the Liaohe Plain was recovered, it was tens of millions of arable land. Although Liaodong was relatively cold and bitter, the arable land was excellent. At the same time, it also produced a large amount of fur, medicinal materials, wood and other things.&1t;/p>
In the past, when Liaodong was not captured by Jiannu, a money tree of ministers in the court could get a lot of money from Liaodong through various means of making money every year.&1t;/p>
When the time comes, with the eunuch loudly, "The Emperor is here."&1t;/p>
Zhu Youxiao came to Huangji Hall, and all the civil and military officials bowed as usual.&1t;/p>
"Long live my emperor, long live my life."&1t;/p>
"Flat."&1t;/p>
Zhu Youxiao sat on the dragon throne and looked very good. There was also a look of joy between his eyebrows. After some officials observed his expressions, they came to the conclusion that the emperor was in a good mood.&1t;/p>
Zhu Youxiao was in a very good mood. The regaining of the Liaohe Plain made Jiannu lose the territory for displaying production. There was no opening in other areas, let alone Han people. Jiannu had no productivity at all.&1t;/p>
"Yesterday I received a good news. The court officers and soldiers have recovered most areas such as Chenyang and Liaoyang, and Jiannu has withdrawn to Tieling. Now Chenyang and Liaoyang have been recovered. I want to hear the opinions of my dear ministers and how the court should restore administration." Zhu Youxiao said to the court officials.&1t;/p>
"Report to Your Majesty. I believe that the court should select officials, restore Liaodong prefectures and counties, and move people from the pass to Liaodong to cultivate seeds. In just a few years, the court will be taxed, and the finances will be greatly improved." An official immediately jumped out and suggested.&1t;/p>
Zhu Youxiao just nodded, but did not agree, but asked other officials: "What are your suggestions?"&1t;/p>
At this time, Wang Shaohui stood up and reported to Zhu Youxiao: "Your Majesty, I think that although the Liaohe area has been recovered, the main force of Jiannu has not been annihilated during the recovery of Liaohe. If he rashly immigrated to the Liaohe area to cultivate, wouldn't it give Jiannu another opportunity to take advantage of it? At that time, Jiannu only needs to make a comeback and plunder it in the Liaohe area, and this problem may be difficult to eliminate."&1t;/p>
"Absurd. Absurd. The 300,000 troops of the imperial court gathered in Liaodong. Are you still afraid that Jiannu will come to plunder?"&1t;/p>
"Jiannu is just a disease of scabies. If the frontline officers and soldiers use their lives, why should they be afraid of it?"&1t;/p>
"Immigration and cultivation are the right way. If there is no support from the people, how can the front-line officers and soldiers fight?"&1t;/p>
As soon as Wang Shaohui finished speaking, he was criticized by a group of Donglin Party. These Donglin Party wanted the court to restore Liaodong administration as soon as possible, and quickly immigrate to the people.&1t;/p>
This is the most in line with their interests. Instead of selling assets to those companies like the previous recovery of the Liaodong Peninsula, they would not get any benefits at all. However, the Han Imperial Party can get a lot of benefits from it. Because the Han Imperial Party is the spokesperson for the rectification of the royal consortium.&1t;/p>
However, their Donglin Party has no interest in the Royal Consortium. Moreover, with the opening model of the Liaodong Peninsula, it is difficult for officials to collect any civilian paste from the people. After all, those resources are opened in the hands of those companies. Exploiting those companies no longer have their power, which is the tax bureau's business. There is no reason to exploit them if there is a group of workers left.&1t;/p>
Or whether to immigrate to Liaodong on a large scale is also related to the struggle of the system.&1t;/p>
The Donglin Party did not want to see the Beizhili system continue to spread, thereby harming their interests or class interests.&1t;/p>
Since the North Zhili imposed the commercial tax, traditional big merchants have basically been eliminated. Those who survived were merchants from the royal consortium, which was completely unhealthy for the capital class and the gentry class represented by them.&1t;/p>
At this time, Shen Qing jumped out and said, "I think what Lord Wang said is reasonable. Although the Liaohe area has been recovered, the Jiannu's centipede insect died without being stiff. At this time, it will only give Jiannu a chance to take advantage of it, and at the same time it is still betting on the lives of the people. Since some people think that Jiannu is not worth worrying, there is no need to rush to move the people to Liaodong to reclaim their crops. Who will pay for the cost of this migration?"&1t;/p>
A group of Donglin Party looked stunned, and thousands of words were silent, but it was worth convincing!&1t;/p>
Zhu Youxiao nodded and echoed: "What I'm saying is so good! Who will pay for the funds for the migration of the people? The court's finances now have budgets. Once there is a fiscal deficit, it will be bad."&1t;/p>
"Your Majesty is wise. Since the court has insufficient funds, the matter of moving the people to cultivate Liaodong will be postponed for a while, so it is not easy for Jiannu to take advantage of it."&1t;/p>
The Han Imperial Party agreed, and soon the basic argument came out.&1t;/p>
That is, we will not immigrate to the Liaohe area for the time being, but will wait until the situation in Liaodong is completely stable.&1t;/p>
This argument is actually what Zhu Youxiao wanted. It is indeed a good thing for the Ming Dynasty to recover the Liaohe Plain at this time. But behind this good thing, there are great risks.&1t;/p>
That is, the Ming army will face a problem, that is, the wild boar skin also began to fight guerrilla warfare on the Liaohe Plain, and robbed the east and the west with hammers?&1t;/p>
At that time, the wild boar skin led the gang to rob supplies, and their internal strength was stable again. After a few years of consumption, the Ming Dynasty's national strength has been involved in Liaodong in this way. How to face the next natural disaster?&1t;/p>
As long as the Ming Dynasty does not immigrate to the Liaohe Plain for the time being, there will be no way to grab the wild boar skin. At that time, we can only grab the Ming army's military supplies, but can the Ming army now be able to grab the wild boar skin? Even if they are asked to grab some things, they will have to pay a huge price.&1t;/p>
"Of course, although we will not immigrate to the Liaohe area for the time being, the administration of cities such as Chenyang and Liaoyang can be laid first. The Ministry of Personnel will select some officials to send them!" Zhu You proofread the proofreader of Wang Shaohui and ordered.&1t;/p>
"I obey the order." Wang Shaohui bowed and received the order.&1t;/p>
This morning, Zhu Youxiao achieved his goal smoothly again. He did not leave any chance to revive the wild boar skin.&1t;/p>
In the eyes of many officials, the Liaohe Plain is indeed a piece of fat.&1t;/p>
In fact, in Zhu Youxiao's eyes, the Liaohe Plain is indeed a piece of fat, and the Royal Consortium is destined to swallow the resources of the Liaohe Plain.&1t;/p>
At the same time, the entire Northeast is also the fat meat in Zhu Youxiao's eyes. Although the winter in the Northeast during the Little Ice Age was a bit scary, it was not impossible to produce. At worst, some crops with short growth cycles, such as soybeans, and minerals and forests in the Northeast are all resources needed by the Ming Dynasty.&1t;/p>
The upcoming small glacier will cause a large number of natural disasters.&1t;/p>
In the face of natural disasters, as long as the total per capita resource is expanded and the allocation is clear, it will be able to survive. It is imperative to take over the entire Northeast.&1t;/p>
After the morning court, Zhu Youxiao returned to the palace and went to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with the Queen.&1t;/p>
The officers and soldiers on the front line received the mooncakes sent by Zhu Youxiao in the logistics supply, which was prepared very early.&1t;/p>
These moon cakes were in the hands of officers and soldiers at all levels, and were moved by the soldiers at all levels. Under the leadership of the instructor, they all declared their swearing to repay the emperor's kindness to the death.&1t;/p>
Sun Chengzong and Sun Chuanting received an imperial edict from the capital to quickly move to Malay.&1t;/p>
"The Emperor Fengtian Chengyun, the imperial edict said: Sun Chengzong, the governor of Liaodong, and Sun Chuanting, the governor of Jinzhou Town, made great contributions to recovering the territory of Liaohe River. He specially granted two men a Qilin robes, a thousand taels of gold. He also granted the title of Grand Tutor of Sun Chengzong and the title of Prince Sun Chuanting's Young Master. In addition, the military situation on the front line changed rapidly. In order to adapt to the situation of war, he ordered the establishment of the "Liaodong Command" with Sun Chengzong as the commander of the command, and Sun Chuanting as the deputy commander of the command. Liaodong Town, Jinzhou Town, and Dongjiang Town are all under the command of the Liaodong Command."&1t;/p>
"My minister Sun Chengzong (Sun Chuanting) thanked the emperor for his kindness." Sun Chengzong and Sun Chuanting received the imperial edict, which also meant that the Ming army in Liaodong had moved from dispersed to unified combat and command.&1t;/p>
Then the eunuch passed a letter from Zhu Youxiao to Sun Chengzong and Sun Chuanting, mainly explaining the operational matters.&1t;/p>
In the letter, Zhu Youxiao told Sun Chengzong and Sun Chuanting to advance carefully, with the main combat idea of preserving their own live power and killing the enemy's live power.&1t;/p>
The content of the letter is not about commanding the front line to fight, but about expressing the needs of the Ming Empire to Sun Chengzong and Sun Chuanting.&1t;/p>
The demand at this time is stability.&1t;/p>
The demise of a dynasty is usually caused by turmoil. If you want to be stable, the Ming army cannot lose its troops and generals.&1t;/p>
After reading the letter, Sun Chengzong and Sun Chuanting immediately replied to Zhu Youxiao, asking the eunuch to take it back. Such correspondences between the monarch and his ministers are still frequent, which is obviously a good habit. Keeping communication between military officials and both parties explain what they want to do and what goals they want to get can also reduce many unnecessary misunderstandings and suspicions.&1t;/p>
"This advance is the best strategy." Sun Chengzong also agreed with the emperor's opinion. He and Sun Chuanting had basically speculated that the wild boar skin was likely to launch a major counterattack during the Ming army's attack on Tieling.&1t;/p>
On August 15th, the Ming army celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival in Shenyang.&1t;/p>
The next day, Sun Chengzong and Sun Chuanting were in the central army, and 200,000 Ming troops in Chenyang set out north on the same day, slowly advancing towards Tieling.&1t;/p>
What is wrong is that the wild boar skin is indeed planning to counterattack. On the way the Ming army attacked Tieling, Jiannu's scouts appeared one after another around the Ming army, killing them hard to resolve.&1t;/p>
Before the two sides had even entered war, the competition between reconnaissance and anti-reconnaissance began to take place fiercely. (To be continued...)&1t;/>&1t;/p>
