Chapter 707 East Sea Division 1
Chapter 707 Donghai Navy (1)
Songjiang Prefecture.
"Your Majesty's plan is wise and powerful."
Hong Chengchou sighed with emotion and looked at Chen Weiye and said, "With the clarification of the East China Sea Navy, the establishment of the navy and coastal defense camps in various provinces in the south of the Yangtze River made some restless groups honest.
Nowadays, under the rule of the provinces in Jiangnan, who still remembers the assassination in Jiangnan?
The situation has changed quietly.
Liu Xingzhi, the general general of the East China Sea Navy, is extraordinary. He only has the few naval warships under his command, and he dares to take the initiative to attack and destroy a so-called Japanese pirate force."
"The Grand Sima is right."
Chen Weiye nodded slightly and said, "Some people couldn't stand it at the beginning. They felt that the Ministry of Internal Affairs re-organized the weaving and made their interests suffer losses, so they wanted to instigate the Japanese riots and then let the court make appropriate compromises.
It’s a pity that the abacus is very good, but I forgot a fact.
Since the third year of Chongzhen, Tianjin abolished its garrison and established its palace, His Majesty has been planning for the development of the navy, especially when it is connected with maritime merchants in various countries in Europe, and constantly gathering shipbuilding groups.
The country is poor and the people are rich.
However, this Jiangnan assassination was intentional by Emperor Chongzhen. Even if Hong Chengchou investigated it, it would be impossible to find out the truth.
The risks and burdens suffered during this period were effectively divided. Otherwise, if a Japanese riot really needs to set up so many departments?
It is the front of the Songjiang Pinglu, the navy of various provinces, and the coastal defense camps of various provinces. Didn’t the Grand Sima see that these people who have been entrusted with important tasks are all generals and schools that Your Majesty values?”
The current situation facing the country and the dynasty is much less eased than before, but the undercurrents hidden behind it are also increasing.
He, the Minister of War of the Ming Dynasty, did a very strange thing.
Hong Chengchou narrowed his eyes slightly.
Why didn't I see it?
Do your job well.
During the investigation of the assassination in Jiangnan, the accompanying Ministers of the Interior Office, Zhang Kentang and He Tengjiao, followed the secret decree issued by Emperor Chongzhen to break the situation in the weaving field.
As long as the Grand Sima can do his job well and develop the East China Sea Navy, then when the situation eases, His Majesty will definitely make moves."
Chen Weiye thought for a while and said, "You have seen the news about the preface of the Songjiang Pangwu before you, including North Korea, Jeju Island, Xiao Ryukyu Islands, and even the Japanese islands across the sea.
If you don't understand, you are not allowed to return to Beijing.
Hong Chengchou sighed in his heart.
If we just simply quell the Japanese turmoil, we can have him as the Minister of War and be responsible for the overall coordination and dispatch, why do we need so many new departments?
However, the assassination of Jiangnan that shocked the government and the public appeared. Before Hong Chengchou arrived in the capital to take office, the furious Emperor Chongzhen issued an order to go to Jiangnan.
From Liaodong in the north, through Tianjin, to Denglai, along the south, Zhili, Zhejiang, Fujian, and finally to Liuqiu Town. The navy forces set up along the way are of course very weak.
But now, there are so many offices.
The so-called pacification of the Japanese is, after all, to develop the navy that the dynasty has been put on hold. Even if the battle lasts for a long time, the emperor is happy."
I can't find out clearly and I'm not allowed to return to Beijing.
After the navy in Tianjin, western Liaoning, Jinzhou, Dongjiang, Denglai and other places were successively established, they continued to hone and develop around the territory of Liaodong.
"What I am worried about now is that under the arrangement of Your Majesty, I am afraid that the people's hearts of the provinces in Jiangnan will become more and more far away from the court and the country."
With his achievements in suppressing the rebellion of the bandits, he was promoted to the Minister of War. According to common sense, he should go to the capital as soon as possible to be responsible for the overall work of the Ministry of War and ensure the stability of the Ming Dynasty's military level.
Suppressing the Japanese turmoil is true.
The Ming Dynasty was not without money.
However, these money and property were greedy for various groups, causing weakness in the Ming Dynasty's finances and causing serious corruption.
If there are too many offices, it will cause a lot of trouble.
While planning these things, the martial arts lecture hall that cultivated the power of the navy and promoted Zheng Zhilong to serve as the general officer of Liuqiu Town, and they were also quietly accumulating momentum."
But behind this, there are other plans, such as controlling the coastal areas of the provinces in the south of the Yangtze River, planning to transform the military forces of the provinces in the south of the Yangtze River, and intimidating the provinces in the south of the Yangtze River.
In fact, the power of the navy in the state is constantly improving.
This is what the emperor wants to gradually control.
Chen Weiye stepped forward and said, "Sir, you don't have to think too much, just do your part. This is what our Majesty values the most.
"I am the Minister of War. I want to return to Beijing to serve. It's unrealistic for not having a few years." Hong Chengchou calmed down and sighed.
It’s not that the Ming Dynasty has no family background.
Why?
However, this money has not been entered into the treasury from beginning to end. It was previously misappropriated to build ship factories, and is now used for development in Tianjin.
Once there is any danger at sea, there are actually very few naval forces that can effectively deal with it. The northern provinces are better, but the southern provinces are completely unsatisfied.
After all, all the Jinyiwei involved were dispatched to Dongjiang Town, and then secretly went to North Korea to seek new plans and deployments.
How many benefits have the imperial court gained since Tianjin opened the sea trade? The taxes collected by Tianjin Customs alone were a huge amount.
Hong Chengchou frowned and looked at Chen Weiye and said, "Our Majesty has wanted to rectify Jiangnan from the beginning, but it just lacks an opportunity.
"This is a game!!"
This is the reality of the Ming Dynasty.
After all, the various changes in the northern provinces, especially the stalls made by Sun Chuanting in Henan, actually made many people feel confused.
Look at the Military Affairs Office and the Cabinet, including Sun Chengzong, Lu Xiangsheng, Chen Qiyu, Sun Chuanting, Yuan Keli and other local governors, and even governors such as Li Banghua, Xiong Wencan and Fang Kongzhao.
Our Majesty is playing a big game.
In fact, they are all the same.
"Sima, you actually missed some."
But it is precisely this way that a Japanese attack gave the state a greater initiative. Once there was any passiveness, the court could allocate food and pay and accelerate the construction of the navy's strength.
"Forget it, I won't talk about these things."
Hong Chengchou waved his hand and said, "Since I received the order and did things, I would not give up halfway. Whether it was involved in the assassination in Jiangnan or the suppression of the Japanese, I would do it well.
Now we need to raise some money as soon as possible to ensure the development of the Donghai Navy. I think I want to go back to Jinling City to find the group of honorary relatives and other people to have a good chat.
If we don’t make clear some things, they will only pretend to be stupid. This is not good. Since they have done some things, they must bear the corresponding consequences for them, otherwise the matter will only become more and more serious! These problems in front of them must be solved as soon as possible."
