Chapter 388 Unification of mountains and rivers

On the ninth day of the second lunar month in the third year of Hongwu's reign, the prime minister immediately started working with unlimited energy after his marriage.

The entire military aircraft was spinning rapidly like a top that had been whipped.

On the ninth day of the lunar month, the Military Aircraft Department issued an order: Tong Derong was removed from the post of Da Zhangjing in the Military Aircraft General Office, and was transferred to the position of Zuo Shi (Second Rank) of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, acting in charge of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. The former Shangshu of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Feng Chengyihou, was promoted to the House of Nobles.

Although there was a slight discrepancy between his position and Li Jiang's position during the conversation the day before yesterday, Tong Derong was still very happy. After all, the real power was only in his hands.

He took office happily.

On the tenth day of the lunar month, Hainan Province was established, and Xinran was relieved of the Ryukyu Navy dispatch. He was appointed governor of Hainan Province and stationed in Lingao.

On the same day, he promoted the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion from the first-rank left governor Aya to the first-rank, and sent a temporary dispatch of the southeastern governor. His task was to conquer all the islands in the southeast.

On the 11th, Jiangnan Province was divided into two. The west was Anhui, which means Huizhou in Anqing. Zhu Yuanzhang was appointed as the first governor and was stationed in Hefei. The east was Jiangsu Province. The original governor was promoted to the House of Nobles, and Li Shanchang, an alternate member of the central committee, was promoted to Buzhengsi.

Bu Zhengshi, who actually controls the power of the governor.

On the 12th, the Governor-General of Huguang was established, which governed the two provinces of Hubei and Hunan, with Dongting Lake as the boundary. The power of the two provinces was temporarily under the governor's control, pending further dispatch by the Central Committee.

On the 13th, the Ministry of Civil Affairs submitted the "Reformation of Enke in the Third Year of Hongwu to Civil Service Recruitment Examination Guide", and the Military Aircraft Department approved it after discussion.

The world was in an uproar! Some scholars raised their arms and shouted, this move is to dig up the roots of our ancestors, and we, the saint disciples, should recommend Xuanyuan with our blood!

On the 15th, reports of the southern war reached the capital. Sichuan and Yunnan had been pacified, and the central government was requested to send out governance officials.

On the 17th, the military aircraft replied: Yunnan and Guizhou were temporarily under military control, and the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou was appointed, and the former commander-in-chief Tang He was transferred. Sichuan was specially established as a province, and was also managed by Tang He. Officials from the three provinces were dispatched after the civil service examination.

On the 20th, Lingnan was pacified. According to the military order, Guangnan East Road was changed to Guangdong Province and Guangnan West Road was Guangxi Province, with Guangxin as the boundary. The former military commander of the southern theater was changed to the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi.

On the 22nd, the Military Aircraft Department issued a military order, and the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion and the Deputy Department of War sent the Shaanxi army into Long to join the Yumen garrison and enter the Western Regions. The Sichuan army was to rest and prepare for one month and must enter Tibet in April of the third year.

.

On the 24th, after a fierce argument, the Military Aircraft Department finally reached an agreement to mobilize 200,000 Guards troops to invade the Northeast along the Western Liaoning Corridor.

Xu Da, who had been promoted to the right commander of the Fifth Army Commandery Mansion, sent a temporary dispatch: the Northeastern Governor.

The next day, when Xu Dalai was bidding farewell, he was privately instructed by the Prime Minister to punish all men who claimed to be Jurchens and had pigtails.

Xu Da received it in astonishment.

On the 28th, Chang Yuchun, who was in Monan, received a secret guest.

The guest wore a curtain hat and sent a secret letter to Chang Yuchun.

Chang Yuchun opened it and saw that it was written by Prime Minister Li Jiang himself.

The letter asked him to contact the seven kings including King Liyi of Monan with the help of the letter holder, and join forces to march into Mobei. Then, he would build a new city in the middle of the Mongolian Plateau, at the southern end of the Kent Mountains, on the banks of the Tula River, a tributary of the Orkhon River.

The Prime Minister has already chosen the name of the new city, "Ulaanbaatar".

But building a city is not the ultimate goal. The ultimate goal is to use this city to radiate the entire Mongolia and form effective control, and return the land to its roots.

Chang Yuchun held the letter and was speechless for a long time. He knew very well how difficult this task was, and he could barely make all the Mongolians surrender, but it was not easy to achieve control and return to the country.

Chang Yuchun, who had always been brave and resolute, felt hesitant in his heart for the first time.

He put down the letter, stared at the face behind the curtain for a moment, and asked: "Your envoy can win over several powerful princes, so you must have a high official position in the Yuan Dynasty! And you also carry

Such a confidential letter further shows that you have a close relationship with the Prime Minister. So I make a bold guess that you are the King of Ruyang."

The visitor laughed "haha", and the air he exhaled blew the mesh scarf under his hat, revealing a bit of gray beard under his chin. He said meaningfully: "Captain Chang, there is no need to ask more, you just need to know that I can help you."

.”

As soon as the word "I" came out, Chang Yuchun immediately understood it, so he stopped asking any more questions and quickly stood up and bowed deeply. Just kidding, how can the prime minister's father-in-law be neglectful?

However, he still kept it in mind and said respectfully: "From now on, I will rely on my husband to support me!"

The old man shook his head and swung his curtain and hat, pointed at the letter and said, "Captain Chang, don't worry too much. The letter clearly states that I am only here to help, and you will always be the main priority."

Chang Yuchun exhaled softly, bowed to the ground again, and said sincerely: "Thank you very much, my father-in-law, for your help."

On March 1, Li Jiang walked into the military aircraft department in a hurry. As soon as he sat down, he summoned Zhang Jing to start assigning tasks.

Wei Yixiao, who was one step ahead, joked: "Old Li, Prime Minister Li. You said you didn't even take a break after your wedding and took us around for almost a month. Doesn't Madam have any objections?"

Yang Xiao happened to come in at this time, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but advise: "Old Li, newlyweds should spend more time with my wife. Just let us old arms and legs do the work."

"Oh?" Li Jiang stopped what he was doing, raised his head, glanced back and forth between the two of them, and said suspiciously: "There is resentment, there is a lot of resentment! Do you dislike the heavy workload? I said, Lao Yang, you are also an innate master, so you have the nerve to say it.

Old arms and legs?”

Yang Xiao choked and said awkwardly: "Age, I'm talking about age!"

"Bah! Two innate masters are competing in age. We, the acquired masters, can only wait to die." Wei Yixiao said sourly.

"Who is waiting to die?" Fan Yao asked as he was approaching.

Wei Yixiao curled his lips and said disdainfully: "Here comes another innate master. Let's chat."

Fan Yao couldn't figure out what to do and looked at Yang Xiao, hoping to get a hint from him.

Just as Yang Xiao blinked twice, Li Jiang spoke, "Old Wei, I'm not talking about you. Look at your appearance now. First of all, your mentality is wrong! Brother Ren Qian'er has already opened up the Du Vein after taking Pei Yuan Dan.

It’s about to hit the Ren channel. What about you? You’re still at the point of warming and nourishing the Du channel.”

Leng Qian happened to come in and looked silly when he heard that he didn't know why.

Wei Yixiao refused to accept it and said in a daze: "Leng Qian is younger than me..."

"Wow, haha..." Li Jiang and Yang Xiao laughed together. Fan Yao basically knew what was going on through Yang Xiao's hint, and he also laughed together.

Wei Yixiao listened to the laughter and thought about the age issue of Li Jiang and Yang Xiao that he had just criticized, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Leng Qian looked at the laughing people and became even more confused. He shook his head and walked to his seat.

If it weren't for the Military Aircraft Department's regular meeting every morning, he would definitely go back to his room without bothering to deal with a few lunatics.

After several people were seated and the attendants brought tea and closed the door to the conference hall, Li Jiang's face suddenly became serious.

He said seriously: "Brothers, you must have felt during this period that I am a bit eager for quick success."

A few people were joking, but they really didn't blame Li Jiang. Just when they were about to say something, they saw Li Jiang lowering his hands, signaling that no one should interrupt.

Li Jiang's voice continued: "There is a reason why I did this. Because my martial arts practice has reached a bottleneck recently, and there is no other way except seclusion. Therefore, the "Charter of Power" stipulates that the prime minister can serve two terms.

I can't finish it."

Ah! The four of them were inexplicably surprised.

Just listen to Li Jiang continue to say: "The prime minister is elected every four years. Next year I will be full and Lao Yang will take over as prime minister. I have made up my mind, you don't need to persuade me anymore!"

He waved his hand and slashed down to show his determination.
