The grand entry ceremony of Qian Guogong Mu Mian will never forget. In fact, since he became the new leader of the Mu family, nothing has ever made him so excited. Although compared with the sphere of influence of the Mu family, Bang Ge Tshu can only be regarded as a small place. This barren and flooded land has not aroused the interest of various dynasties in the Central Plains since ancient times. In the era of farming, annexation of it was indeed not worth the cost. But now the world has changed, and the strong transportation capacity of sea ships has made the role of the port increasingly prominent, and Dhaka City has gradually become a piece of fat in the eyes of neighboring countries.

After taking down the Daka, the Mu family's control range could be extended to the Bay of Bengal. They could move westward to grain production areas such as Goa, and retreat to rely on the Ming vassal states such as Myanmar and Siam as strategic buffers. What made Mu Mian most happy was that in addition to his territory, he also tested the combat effectiveness of the Pingnan Army through war and once again felt the strong morale of the team under his command. The soldiers of the Pingnan Army who had not been through the battle formation for a long time were all excited and wrote the excitement and satisfaction on their faces. Mu Mian could see that the smiles of his subordinates were from the bottom of their hearts. This smile was much more sincere and brighter than when they wiped out local rebellions and defeated the troops.

The military operation was surprisingly smooth. When they heard that they were going to deal with the bandits in the Bang Geshua Bay, the soldiers from all over the country whipped their fists and made preparations for the battle as quickly as possible. In particular, the officers and soldiers of the Mu family fleet were ready to fight with the Nanyang heroes. Just as everyone was feeling uncomfortable in their hearts for the slaughter of their compatriots, they heard the commander temporarily changing their minds and joining forces with the Nanyang heroes to deal with foreign enemies, they screamed in excitement, and asked the letter of war to send it to the Central Army where Mu Mian was located like snowflakes.

Shao Yunfei was more at ease than Mu Mian. He personally rushed to Malacca with the eldest son of the Ye family, Ye Qingyang, to formulate a combat plan with Mu Mian, and communicated the cooperation steps between the two sides and the distribution of interests after the war. He wrote down some prone barriers in advance in the form of provisions, and allowed the decision-makers of both sides to sign. It was not until the conditions such as food, equipment and war cooperation were foolproof that he joined hands with Mu Mian to launch this offensive. The Nanwuli fleet rushed to Dhaka City from the water, and the Mu Family fleet followed closely behind, ambushing the Gary pirates who came to support Dhaka City in one fell swoop in the ocean.

This was a brilliant victory. The Pingnan Army and the servants of the Tu kings such as Myanmar, Siam, and Nanyue were unstoppable, and they did not encounter any effective resistance along the way. The defenders of various places in Bangges were unprepared, and most cities were taken down in the first wave of attacks. Some Turkish chiefs also resisted step by step with the terrain, but the gap in strength between the two sides was too big. The Pingnan Army itself belonged to the troops hammered out in the mountains. The tribal warriors from Myanmar, Siam, and Nanyue were also masters of jungle warriors. In two or three hours, the stubborn leader of the Bangges tribe had to face the reality of defeat.

The only thing that made Mu Mian regret was that Dhaka City announced its surrender without insisting on the arrival of the Pingnan Army under the continuous shelling of the Shaw Fleet. The reason for the surrender was also very sufficient. Bang Geshi had admired the culture of the Celestial Empire. All the things that had done before were sorry for the Ming Dynasty were all because the national teacher colluded with Timur and kidnapped the king. Now the king and the national teacher died together, and the royal heir Sephdin did not know where to go. The court officials and the garrison troops naturally had to make the most appropriate choice for the safety of the people.

Such weak actions greatly reduced the victory of the Pingnan Army. All the strategies arranged in advance were lost, like a heavy hammer hitting cotton, without any effort. Although the central army where the Duke of Qian Guo Mu Mian was located used a tactic of not entangling with the opponent to attack Dhaka City, it was still three days later than Shao Yunfei entered the city. Fortunately, there was a prior agreement between the two parties to the cooperation. After receiving sufficient compensation for his fleet, the one-armed pirate Shao Yunfei readily handed over Dhaka City to the Mu family in accordance with the agreement.

Ye Fengsui, the leader of the Nanyang hero, was a careful man. In order not to cause unnecessary trouble to the Mu family, the Nanyang Fleet, which participated in the operation, did not attack the banner of the Pirate Republic, but followed Shao Yunfei's joint fleet and unified the Flame Phoenix Flag, and the logo on the ship was also changed to the two words "Yanhuang". These two words had unexpected effects in the war. The Mu family's naval soldiers, who were originally a little irresistible to the heroes of the South China Sea, fought bravely in the battle, for fear of letting the other party take the lead and comparing their own might.

The word "Yanhuang" is also the code name for this military operation. According to the plan, the Mu family army will focus on Dhaka and force small countries such as Nepal and Bhutan to escape from Timur's control with force, and remain neutral in the upcoming decisive battle between the two sides. The Shaw Fleet, some Nanyang heroes and Mu family naval divisions will join forces to attack Kolkata, Cuiyuzui, Yuli and other Gulf Coast ports, and clean up the navy and pirate ships of the Gulf of Bengal before the Arab fleet arrives.

"It's still a great deal to fight this kind of war." Kuang Guo Duke Mu Mian lazily stood up from the Taishi Chair and reached out to take over the map and household registration presented by the left-behind minister of the Bang Gestu, and was full of ambition. He could foresee that after the end of this operation, the reputation and strength of the Mu family would rise a lot. In the Ming Dynasty, where the situation was becoming increasingly unclear, strength and reputation represent the continuation of the family's glory and wealth. For the sake of the family, the two generations of the Mu family spent their hard work in the southwest. Unlike the spontaneous new policies of the six northern provinces, the promotion of various policies in the Mu family territories relied on the power of the four major families of the Mu family brothers and Liu, Fang, Su, and Bai. When Mu Ying was alive, the princes of the southwest took a unique approach to refer to the gains and losses of the imperial court and the six northern provinces, and created this kind of iron-fisted policy that strongly promoted industry and commerce, established education, and repaired public facilities. When Mu Ying was alive, the princes in the southwest took a unique approach to refer to the gains and losses of the imperial court and the six northern provinces, and created this kind of iron-fisted policy that strongly promoted industry and commerce, established education, and repaired public facilities. When Mu Ying was alive, the princes in the southwest took a unique approach, and created this kind of iron-fisted policy that strongly promoted industry and commerce, established education, and repaired public facilities.

Strategy. Although this policy has caused a lot of bloody storms due to the favoritism of officials and the boycott of local tyrants during the promotion process, the results have been very obvious after nearly twenty years of high-pressure implementation. At present, the main source of income of the Mu family and the four major families has completely shifted from taxes to industry and commerce, and the emerging industries and bridge and road construction in the Yunnan-Guizhou area have also reached a certain scale. In the mountainous areas, agriculture itself is not the strength of Yunnan-Guizhou. After experiencing the initial blood, the people gradually gained benefits from the Mu family's policies, gradually shifted from hostility to praise. After the selection of several families, the officials sent by the court gradually moved from greed to integrity. Looking at the Ming Dynasty, compared with the disorder of the new policies of the six northern provinces and the corruption in the central area of ​​the imperial control, the Yunnan-Guizhou area seems harmonious and peaceful.

Although this dispatch of troops may arouse suspicion from the court, Mu Mian rationally chose the former compared to the future attack by Timur's army alone on the southern front. Before sending troops, he had already sent a long memorial to the court on "The siege of the Bang Gestula to avenge the people of the Ming Dynasty", and ordered the messenger who passed the memorial to ride a fast horse at 800 miles, and he must wait until the Pingnan Army enters Bang Gestula before reaching the capital. As for the reasons the envoy made up to explain to the court the reason for the delay on the road, there is no need to worry about the Duke of Qian. If the corporals of the Mu family do not have this ability to lie, they will not have to make a living in the Mu family.

Ye Qingyang, a hostage and liaison officer from the Ye family, sat beside Mu Mian. As a representative of his allies, he had the right to enjoy the honor of surrender together. Ye Qingyang made great contributions to the achievement of the cooperation agreement between the two sides. "If the Arab coalition forces led their troops to attack, they would not let Nanyang go because of the disagreement between Borna and the Ming Dynasty, nor would they bypass southern Yunnan because of the Mu family and the court. They could not see the differences between us. In their eyes, we only have one name, China." The little guy's speeches made by the counselors of the Prince Mu's mansion still echoed in Mu Mian's mind.

Looking at the smiles of the generals on the surrendered platform, the proud look of the soldiers behind him and the overseas Chinese who came to watch the ceremony, the Qianguo Duke Mu Mian was a little moved. In fact, it has always been his heart disease about how the Mu family will develop in the future. It is his ancestor rule to maintain good relations with the court, and it is the Mu family's ancestors' rule. But this big tree has been eroded into hollows by insects, and it is dangerous to fall down at any time. When sitting under the tree, it will smell a bit like waiting for death. It is also a way to establish a country in the middle of the country like the six northern provinces where the King of Yan is located, but Mu Mian doesn't know how to do this.

How loyal the army can be, and the scolding of the newspapers in China will also make the Pingnan Army weaken the morale of the Pingnan Army. The family interests and loyalty and righteous thoughts are always fighting in his mind, making him not know where to go. In this case, the slogan chosen for this joint military operation touched his heart, Yanhuang, these two words were like magic to deeply attract people's eyes, which is more exciting than the Ming Dynasty, the loyalty of the emperor and the country, and the expulsion of the Tartars. Along the way, Gao Leshan, the general of the Mu family who was over fifty years old, waved such a big flag to supervise the battle, and chased the soldiers carrying shell boxes under him faster than rabbits.

The fighting outside the southwest was so intense that the Central Plains was as excited as if they had a sudden drink of strong wine. Almost everyone was talking about the war thousands of miles away. Some small vendors and street literati may not even tell where the thorns were, and how large it was, but these did not affect their interest in the war. After so many years, this desperate court was finally willing to take the gun to the outside world, which is the reason for making people happy.

In the palace, Emperor Jianwen and his cabinet ministers did not think so. Mu Mian played this beautifully, which made them unable to express their suffering. The border general had the power to make arbitrary decisions when the enemy was in urgent need, so Mu Mian's method of secretly sending troops did not violate the laws of the Ming Dynasty. After the city of Daka was captured, the Pingnan Army attributed all the credits to the cabinet for planning. The emperor was far-sighted and also won enough face for the court. However, Yunwen and Huang Zicheng knew in their hearts that this military operation represented another local regime separating from the court and no longer took the royal majesty seriously.

At the same time, newspapers intentionally or unintentionally revealed that Wu Anguo was the main behind-the-scenes planner of this operation, which gave the emperor a headache. Success and failure were both Anguo. Every time this disaster-like name appeared, it would make Emperor Jianwen unable to sleep or eat. If he hadn't sneaked into the Nanwuli, Emperor Jianwen would be sure that the head of the Mu family would not abandon Zhu Biao and Mu Ying and would not deal with the pirates in the South China Sea, but instead joined forces with the thieves. Those thieves said it nicely, they were all descendants of Yan and Huang, but when did they offer a penny of tax to the court?

"Long live, in fact, Mr. Mu led the Pingnan Army to fight outside the decisive battle with Timur, which is a blessing for the people of the world." The lecturer Fang Xiaoru kept feeding Yunwen a happy pill, "This way the war will not burn to the Ming Dynasty. Even if Mr. Mu cannot support it, the Ming Dynasty still has enough time to mobilize troops from other places."

"I'm afraid that Timur had no intention of attacking the Ming Dynasty, and was forced by Wu'anguo, he had to attack. Qi Xueshi was in danger!" Zhou Chongwen, the Minister of War, was afraid that the emperor would not be angry, and then added angrily. "The personal reputation of Duke Qian and Duke Dingliao took the opportunity to increase a little. Now, in the eyes of the people in the world, there are only Wu'anguo and Mu Mian, so how can you remember long live your life?"!

In an instant, Zhu Yunwen's face turned ashen. Zhou Chongwen's words were obviously provoking. Emperor Jianwen knew this. But he understood some things in his heart, but could not control his actions. The memorial on the desk became a punching bag again, and was waved by the emperor's hand and fell to the ground with a sensation.

"The emperor calmed down. Mr. Mu was confused by villains for a while. After this period, he would think of the benefits of Long Live. It is better to reward the frontline soldiers and let the people of the world know that Long Live is not a successful master, but a qualification to lead the Ming Dynasty to compete for the heroic spirit, and use it to win the hearts of the people of the world." Grand Secretary Huang Zicheng bowed, picked up the memorials on the ground, and put them in a regular manner on the desk. Huang Zicheng has some feeling after devoted himself to studying Wu'anguo's methods of doing things these days.

Enlightenment. Why do some things do better than yourself in Wu'anguo's hands? Why can Wu'anguo turn bad luck into good times every time he is in a difficult situation? Huang Zicheng believes that the main reason is that Wu'anguo can face up to the changes that have happened no matter what circumstances, and find the most favorable way to deal with them. The Ming Dynasty is in danger at present, and any pressure from the outside world is enough to accelerate the collapse of the court. However, making full use of external pressure and turning it into motivation can actually make the dynasty revival.

"Wait, besides waiting, what else do you teach me to do. Since I ascended the throne, I have not done anything to blame the Mu family, but the Mu family has actually defeated me like this." Emperor Jianwen interrupted Huang Zicheng's suggestion angrily. He knew that he could not deal with Mu Mian. If he issued an order at this time, the princes in the southwest would probably go and never look back. But as the emperor, being played with by his ministers, it would be hard to swallow this tone. Fang Xiaoru was pedantic, Zhou Chongwen was not successful enough, and Huang Zicheng could not come up with a good solution. Li Qi could only flatter him. Looking at the cabinets like paper dolls, Zhu Yunwen felt a chill.

"I have already started to make arrangements. This time, the north that supports the new policy will definitely suffer a great loss, and it is not even a little bit of his Majesty." Huang Zicheng said, bowing his body and saying. When he said this, his face turned slightly red. I don't know if it was because he felt that he had let down Shengen down or because of some extreme measures he secretly used. Sitting in his position, some things are not very conscientious.

"No matter what you do, don't forget the conscience of a scholar." In the Yixue School of Peking, Bai Dexin put down the newspaper in his hand and spoke earnestly. He claimed to be a moral person and was famous for his scolding for twenty years. Since the death of his old opponent Bo Chen, his pen has become more and more sharp. For big and small things, those who fall into Bai Zheng's writing usually end up being analyzed to pieces.

Bai Zheng made an example in the past few days, and published an article in "Peking Spring and Autumn" to exaggerate the military operations of the Mu family in Yunnan, so that when the students saw the newspaper, they came over strangely and asked if someone had pretended to be the teacher's name. It was no wonder that the students had this question. Since they came to Peking, they have gone from being unbounded to scolding women to being in the government without any seniority and seniority. From merchants' unintentional trafficking of humans to being unlawful to Liao and Mongolian joints, they did not abide by national laws and regulations to looting other countries. From the court to the court to indulge corrupt officials to harming the people, to the cabinet sharing the spoils. Whether it is the new policies of the six northern provinces or the Neo-Confucianism in the south, they were all knocked down by Bai Dexin. After Bo Chen left, some royal literati seized the opportunity to rush their troops to the north, and were sniped by Bai Zheng with a sword, from the other party's personal moral greetings to academic loopholes, they caused wars everywhere in the newspaper.

"If Bai stopped cursing one day, it means Bai was completely desperate for this country." In private, Bai Zheng once said this to his disciples. That's why he made an exception this time caused a greater shock than cursing. The small study room was crowded with people at this moment, some of whom were studying in Yixue, learning to write articles from Bai Zheng, and preparing to take the imperial examination. Some graduated from here, and later went to the Peking Academy to further study and enter the northern emerging industries. Everyone gathered in the study room curiously just to listen to Bai Zheng's reasonable explanation.

"What the saints say is correct in their hearts, not to let you close your eyes and act recklessly by personal perception. Instead, let everyone look at the facts in front of you and question your conscience." Bai Zheng stood up and opened the window of the study. The apartment he bought was the former residence of Wu'anguo. The study was set on the second floor. When you open the window, you can just see the scenery on the street. Late autumn is the harvest season, and the streets of Peking are extremely lively. This is the money bag of the six northern provinces. Every autumn, the rich people from all over the world will do it.

Come and buy all kinds of goods. As the year-end settlement is imminent, the increasingly mature stock market in Peking, which has experienced more than 20 years of struggle and has experienced a big blowout in the late autumn, allowing shareholders to make a small profit. Walking on the streets of Peking, you can often see some retired veterans or Mongolian princes who own a lot of land but want to transform into factory owners, pouring into Mingdi Building with income from selling grain, fur, wood and other items, and using their savings for a year to exchange for hope.

Since the imperial control area began to impose additional sales tax on products from the six northern provinces, sales of some daily necessities targeting ordinary people's homes have declined sharply. The factory adjusted its direction and produced high-profit luxury goods requires funds, so some newly issued stocks have low value, which is a great time to earn money to build positions. Standing in the study window, Bai Zheng can see a long queue waiting for him to open the door every day.

No one is willing to fight. Although the court's persecution of the six northern provinces is getting tighter and tighter. But factory owners would rather reduce costs or risk smuggling than see the two sides fighting between the north and the south. Although they are making less money now, fighting means that the trade route is interrupted and they have lost all their money.

At present, the only way to make all forces in the country give up prejudices and seek consensus is to pour out pressure on the outside. A powerful Timur is on the side, which slowly eases the tension between the various kings and the courts. Although the vanguards of the Anton Army are still stationed in Jinan and Kaifeng, non-field troops from various garrisons are also sharpening their swords. However, invasion of powerful enemies is imminent, and no forces dare to take the lead in taking action. As long as there is no fight, there is hope for disagreement. A nation's internal disputes, compromise is the best choice. For example, the six northern provinces use the method of offering to the court to the court to cancel or reduce the additional taxes against the north, which is a good ending, at least much better than bleeding.

The prosperity outside the window is heart-warming. Bai Zheng learned the study of governing the world, not the art of keeping a door closed. He knew the source of this prosperity. Although he was not satisfied with its various flaws, he did not want it to be destroyed in war. In fact, except for the madman who was eager to kill and seek merit, no adult liked war, especially when he pointed his compatriots at his compatriots. What touched Bai Zheng the most in the past few days was the flaming phoenix flag of Shao Yunfei and the two words "Yanhuang" painted on the bow of the Nanyang Fleet.

I have always wondered if these two words were written by Wu Anguo. Bai Zheng felt that only that big black man could come up with such unexpected good words. Bai Zheng hated the ruthlessness of the new policy, but did not want it to be completely destroyed, hated the shamelessness of the southern court, but did not want to see the Southern Dynasty buried in a civil war. He had been asking him for his whole life, but he didn't know why he used such complicated ideas. He was not until he saw the words Yan and Huang that were exaggerated in the newspaper.

"We are all descendants of Yan and Huang. We can divide ourselves into six northern provinces, northwest, southwest, and southwest, but in the eyes of foreign enemies, we are all black-haired and black-eyed." Lao Baizheng was a little excited and his words were a little passionate. "In fact, we do not belong to the court, nor do we belong to any prince, we only belong to ourselves. This is our own home, and only the madman always thinks about smashing it. That's why I admire the behavior of Mr. Mu and Mr. Wu in defending the enemy outside the country."

"But the madmen in the south don't understand this truth, and they always force us again and again." Among the students, the son of a small factory owner whispered. His father's factory has suffered a lot of losses recently due to the court's additional tax measures. Seeing that the family was in decline, the little guy was very dissatisfied with the court.

"It will get better slowly. Didn't Lord Zhan Yi go to the court to engage in activities? Besides, it is impossible for the south to not use our things. Everyone takes a step back, and there will be benefits. The court will not be unable to see that it is powerful." A young man who was an aide in the prefect's office said with a smile, "Actually, they also like to be unanimous to the outside world. If you don't believe me, please look at the newspapers from the south these days. It's not the same as ours, and you can cheer for the Mu family loudly."

"This statement is not false. After all, everyone is descendant of Emperor Huangdi of Xuanyuan." Bai Zheng smiled and opened a series of newspapers from the south. His disciples had this experience to make him happy. He has been a scolding man for his whole life, but now he is old. Instead, he hopes that the times of his descendants will be more and more perfect, and no one will hold a pen every day like him.

Like the newspapers in Peking, the newspapers in the south are also full of praise for the Pingnan Army. These topics can no longer arouse Bai Zheng's interest. As he flipped quickly, a line of titles hidden in the last page suddenly jumped into his eyes. The title of the title is not big, but it is as shocking as a bolt from the blue.

"Gusu and Zhu Er are traitors"! The seven words made Bai Zheng lose his soul.
Chapter completed!
