Although the Ming Dynasty in the third year of Chongzhen was on the verge of collapse, it was still far from the situation of complete collapse. At least Emperor Chongzhen believed so.

The bandit forces in Shanxi and Shaanxi have not yet swept across the Central Plains, Huguang and other places, nor have they captured the Zhongdu of the Ming Dynasty. They have dug up the ancestral tombs of the Lao Zhu family, shaking the foundation of the Ming Dynasty.

The Jianlu Eight Banners in Liaodong had not yet conquered the peninsula and incorporated Korqin and other tribes. Huang Taiji had not ascended the throne and became emperor. He founded the name of the Qing Dynasty, Ming Manchu, Mongolian and Han army Eight Banners.

The Ming Dynasty's finances, administration, etc. have not fallen to the darkest time, and even the border warlord forces have not yet been completely finalized...

"Parent Wang, the treasury allocates another sum of silver to the Military Preparatory Court and the Xishan Musket Battalion."

Emperor Chongzhen leaned on the dragon throne and reached out to Wang Chengen and said, "The West Mountain is too important to the future of the dynasty. They must not be allowed to have any stagnation."

"Here!"

Wang Chengen bowed and responded.

Since leaving the palace to go out to visit the West Mountain, Emperor Chongzhen's mood has improved a lot. Looking at the many changes in the West Mountain, Emperor Chongzhen saw hope.

Whether it is the Military Preparatory Institute, the military and military bureaus under its jurisdiction, the Military Weapon Bureau and other departments, or the Xishan Musket Battalion, they are all moving forward according to his plan.

The Ming Dynasty never lacked talents, but lacked the Bole who knew the wise and keen eyes.

If he could be called a pragmatic talent, arranged in the right position and given them absolute support, Emperor Chongzhen always believed that the Ming Dynasty would definitely become better.

"The Emperor... Wang Qia, Minister of Military Affairs Department, and Han Du, the chief assistant of the cabinet, please see him!"

Pang Tianshou hurried into the Dongnuan Pavilion and bowed to Emperor Chongzhen and said, "In Zhending and Baoding's two prefectures, a large number of victims gathered. According to the memorials submitted by the two prefectures, the number of victims directly entering may exceed 300,000."

"Prince!"

Emperor Chongzhen raised his sword eyebrows and looked at Pang Tianshou and said in a deep voice.

This disaster came so quickly.

I issued an edict to Shaanxi Ming that only after a period of time, more than 300,000 victims gathered in Zhending and Baoding prefectures.

It seems that some people in Shandong and Shaanxi must have taken advantage of this matter, even dispersed the victims and refugees under their control, and fled to the north to Zhili in large numbers.

I remembered what I did in the court in recent days and killed a group of corrupt officials. I intuition told Emperor Chongzhen that things must be not simple.

"My... Wang Qia, pay homage to Your Majesty!"

"My memory...Han, pay homage to Your Majesty!"

Seeing the two people hurriedly walking into the hall and bowing to him, Emperor Chongzhen narrowed his eyes slightly. If the disaster tide was not handled properly, the advantages he had gained before would be gone.

"No gift."

Emperor Chongzhen spoke.

"Your Majesty, you are currently in Zhending and Baoding, and there are many victims from Shanxi who fled to escape." Han Yu said with a serious expression and a slightly anxious tone.

"If the court cannot handle this matter properly, once the disaster victims entrenched here will cause civil unrest and break through Zhending, the defense lines of the two governments of Baoding may cause chaos in the northern Zhili.

But if the entrenched disaster victims are put into Zhili, and only the eight prefectures are governed, many disaster victims may not be able to be accommodated.

According to Zhending, the prefects of Baoding and the two places said that there were a large number of victims in Shanxi who were fleeing toward the north Zhili."

"Your Majesty...the state must make a quick decision in this matter."

Wang Qia followed closely and said: "No matter what the situation is, if it is handled improperly, it will bring passiveness to the court and even shake the foundation of the country.

I dared to ask Your Majesty to bring down the order and place the victims who fled to Shanxi nearby, and the Ministry of Revenue allocated money and food for disaster relief.

In addition, the treasury allocates part of the money and grain to ensure that the disaster can stabilize the wave of disasters."

At that time, Emperor Chongzhen called the Military Affairs Office and issued an edict to the emperor, "What are you going to do? There is no food in Shanxi and Shaanxi, but there is one in Zhili. The emperor ordered the victims to enter Zhili!

Wang Qia thought in his heart that there would be today.

In addition, the many adjustments made by Ming's imperial edict have been taken seriously to officials in Shanxi and Shaanxi, even vassals, officials and gentry and other groups.

This is called Wang Qia's thought that the current situation formed under the rule of Zhending and Baoding prefectures must have a close connection with the local governments in Shanxi and Shaanxi.

It took only how long that more than 300,000 disaster victims came to Beizhili regardless of their own. This matter was strange.

"It is not possible to place it nearby under the rule of Shanxi."

Emperor Chongzhen thought for a while and said, "If I do this, then the previous verbal orders will become a laughing stock, which will cause the dynasty to lose its majesty.

Furthermore, the prefectures under the rule of Shanxi still have important tasks to do. At this time, the matter of disasters and disasters is called a review.

Since these victims from Shanxi and Shaanxi believe in my oral orders and are willing to leave their hometowns to flee to Beizhili, I cannot hurt their hearts.

The government had hurt their hearts before, but they had already hurt too much."

Perhaps the sudden outbreak of disasters this time is full of strange things.

However, in the eyes of Emperor Chongzhen, if this group of people who fled to escape and could properly resettle them, then the couple would have fully controlled the Northern Zhili in the future and lay a solid foundation.

Moreover, the resettlement of 300,000 victims means that there are 300,000 less bandits who are trapped by bandits.

And so on, 400,000, 500,000...

Although the pressure was very high and the challenge was severe, this did not affect Emperor Chongzhen's decision.

"Your Majesty, you must think twice!"

Han Du bowed and said, "So many victims who have flocked to the Northern Zhili rule will definitely cause a great impact on the order of the capital, even the price of grain and distribution.

If the court did not properly handle this incident, once a storm occurred, the capital would inevitably be in chaos, which would undoubtedly shake the foundation of the Ming Dynasty.

And for the court, with so many disasters, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be thieves hiding rampant places. Once…”

"Han Qing, when encountering a problem, what you should think of should not be how to properly solve it, but instead be a hand-off manager?"

Emperor Chongzhen frowned and said, "These are my people, the people of the Ming Dynasty. Even what you said really exists.

Can you just ignore it?

Could it be that according to Wang Qing's opinion, if these problems are placed nearby under the rule of Shanxi?

What kind of problems does Shanxi have? Isn’t it unclear to the two Qing families?

I am afraid that the disaster relief money and food allocated to Shanxi will be secretly intercepted by corrupt officials who have not been caught.

This matter does not require the responsibility of the Cabinet and Military Affairs Office. I personally appointed the ministers to preside over the disaster relief work of the victims who went directly to the disaster. All the expenses should be allocated by the treasury."
