Chapter 865 Return to Beijing (Part 2)
.The wind blows on the sea, and the clouds are covered with clouds.
"Can I let go?" Silently took the coconut and whispered: "For more than ten years, no one can truly understand what I have done. So although it is now vigorous, once I am no longer in power, I will definitely be destroyed one by one. People say that people will die, but I want people to die, and I cannot accept this result!" As he said that, he grabbed the coconut shell with one hand and said word by word: "An old man said, "A real man should not have power for a day." I used to think it was an excuse for him to be in a wealthy place, but now I know how much helplessness and how much helplessness are contained in this sentence!"
"Then do you want to be poisoned?" Chen Jing's face became serious: "Brother, people cannot fight with the sky..."
"There is another old man who said, fighting with the sky is endless fun!" Chen Si put the coconut on the table and sneered: "The seeds I planted have been for more than ten years, and now they are still in the seedling stage. It is said that for ten years, I must strive for at least ten years. I believe that in ten years, even if I can no longer block the wind and rain for them, they can withstand it!"
Chen Jing didn't understand what the seed of silence meant, but he knew that his brother needed him, so he stopped asking, but said in a deep voice: "Say, what do you need me to do?"
"I asked you to go from Shanghai to Luzon at the beginning." I turned silently to look at Chen Jing: "One is that you are suitable for this job, and the other is to find a way out for our Shen family. If you manage it well, you will be the greatest support for me." He said, "This time I brought both children to the south, let the eldest son be Wu Baipeng as his teacher, and let the second son be Zheng Ruozeng as his teacher. These two are not only knowledgeable, but also useful talents. I believe that the apprentices they taught will not be nerds.
Why does this sound like a entrusting one's own son? Chen Jing was shocked and said in a trembling voice: "Is this true of my words?"
"Where do you want to go..." Chen Si smiled and said, "I still have a wife and children in the capital. Can I ignore them in order to entrust the orphan? It's just that they can learn skills from their two masters. If they don't go to the career of their career in the future, there will be a way out."
"You are still worried," Chen Jing said angrily: "Everyone says, brothers who fight tigers, father and son soldiers go into battle. "You have to fight to the death, but you still have to fool me here!"
"It's not hard." Chen Si smiled bitterly, "But the court is changing, success or failure, you have to make the worst plan." He patted his brother with a worried look on his face and smiled mockingly, "Don't worry, I have a Clipper in Tianjin Wei. When things are not good, I will run away immediately and never go anywhere. Let's go directly to you. Let's have free time overseas together and do not let this life down!"
"I hope there is no day." Chen Jing grinned, and the next moment he said emotionally: "But if there really is that day, even if there is a sword mountain and fire, I will take someone to pick you up!"
"That's the mission of the eldest son." Silently smiled: "You have managed Luzon well, don't let others drive them back to their country."
"I underestimate me, right?" Chen Jing said suddenly: "I said, "Why are you happy to tie your eldest son to the Southeast Navy? It turns out that it is for the preparations in the future. As expected, old man is very cunning."
"What are you doing if you are not in the navy?" Chen Shu laughed and cursed: "Do you go ashore and become an army?"
After a quick meeting, Chen Jing took his son back.
After seeing off Chen Jing, Chen Mo took Shen Zhiqing back to Qinghua. Because the domestic political situation was unstable, Li Weibang could not leave, so the matter of going to Beijing to contribute the country could not be completed. He had to deliver the map seal to Chen Mo and handed it over to the Emperor of the Celestial Dynasty.
In order to help Li Weibang suppress the chaos, Wu Baipeng, the new official, ordered the guerrilla general Chang Sanchi to lead 10,000 officers and soldiers to stay in Qinghua to intimidate Xiaoxiao. Then, together with Chen Mo, he marched towards the north of the Suishun City. There, Wu Baipeng opened a government office and formally formed the Nanyang Jinglifu Mansion. Chen Mo had already assigned him his subordinates, and left 20,000 troops for his control...
Wu Baipeng was quite dissatisfied with the fact that the governor of the Ming Dynasty had only this army, and his soldiers were not worth 100,000. His own strategy, which was one level higher than the governor, was not even as good as a governor. With these 30,000 troops alone, controlling Annan today was barely enough, but it was a dream to control the entire Indochina Peninsula.
Silence cannot help. The rules of the Ming Dynasty, which province is the army, which province is maintained. The central government only cares about the nine border troops. No matter how they line up, it was not the turn of the army stationed in Annan. Silence still gave up his old face and asked the Ministry of War for 30,000 troops.
"Thirty thousand soldiers are definitely not enough, but can you recruit them?" Silently comforted Wu Baipeng and said: "There are people in the Indochina Peninsula. Although they are not tall enough, training can be used at least."
"It doesn't cost money to recruit soldiers? It doesn't cost money to raise soldiers! It doesn't cost money to armor and weapons?" If the problem is not solved now, Wu Baipeng will be even more helpless when Chen Si left, so he said anxiously: "Besides, his heart will be different. Can the locals use it? Don't be afraid that they will train them like they did back then, and they will betray them and will be a death knell for themselves."
"That's because I haven't found the right method." Chen Si smiled and said, "As long as I find the right method, I won't worry about anything."
"Then you're going to tell me a solution!" Wu Baipeng looked unyielding. If he didn't do this, he was afraid that silence would not take it seriously.
"Okay, I'll tell you a way to recruit soldiers without money, raise soldiers without money, and armor and weapons without money." Silently said, "You should be familiar with military books, and you should be familiar with the Tang Dynasty's military system."
"You mean?" Wu Baipeng's eyes lit up. Without heavy hammering, he immediately understood three points.
"No," Chen Ji said, "We went from south to north all the way. I have observed carefully that most of the land in Annan is deserted."
Baipeng had already entered the corner and nodded, "The Southern and Northern Dynasties in Annan have been around for decades. In the past few decades, both sides have repeatedly ruthlessly, and war has spread throughout the country. The population is only one-third of the Mo family's usurping the country, so most of the arable land is not cultivated."
"What a precious wealth!" Silent smiled like an old fox and squinted his eyes and said, "And it's once-in-a-lifetime, after a series of changes, all the princes and nobles of Annan and the south and the south dynasties had their food off..." The Northern Dynasties were defeated, and the people who tied their wealth to the Mo family naturally followed him. Although the Southern Dynasties defeated, most of the civil and military officials of the Southern Dynasties were under the Zheng family, so they were also finished. Therefore, the power of Annan is now at an unprecedented low point.
"It would be easier to do without those nobles' trouble." Chen Si smiled faintly:... You should immediately issue an announcement to reclaim the land without a lord. If anyone wants to farm, you can go to the Jingliufu to claim it. Each household can be divided into ten to twenty acres. There is no need to pay any initial fees. Only ten households need to send one strong man to join the army and bear the soldiers' armor, grain and fodder for the soldiers... If the soldier performs well, for example, if he makes meritorious service, he will increase the land for these households; if he performs poorly, for example, if he commits a crime, he will reduce the land for him. I believe you will soon get a loyal and capable brigade who can fight well."
Wu Baipeng had nothing to say. He had to admit that the trick of silence was too cruel... Annan's land annexation was even better than the Celestial Empire. Almost all the land was from those great nobles and generals. To put it nicely, the peasants called tenants, but to put it bluntly, the life of serfs was extremely miserable. Now Shen Mo was going to take advantage of Annan's reshuffle and the powerful landlords were the weakest to distribute the land to the peasants, and the army was also the peasant's soldiers, which would inevitably protect the new land relations. Naturally, the civil and military officials and the military people in Annan were opposed.
In this way, if the nobles want to rebel, the army will not follow the people and will not agree. In order to obtain more land in the family, the army will inevitably enforce orders and fight bravely, and only obey the command of the Legislative House.
This is the wonderful thing about the military system of the palace. Unfortunately, the land annexation of the Ming Dynasty was hopeless and there was no such condition.
After solving Wu Baipeng's problem, Chen Mo wanted to lead the remaining more than 10,000 troops back to Guangxi from Zhennan Pass. Before leaving, he called Shen Zhiqing again to Wu Baipeng and ordered him to kowtow to the teacher. In the future, if his father violated his master's behavior, Wu Baipeng would just implement the family law for himself. Zhiqing obediently did it.
On the second day, Chen Si set out to Wu Baipeng and Shen Zhiqing left the city to see him off. Perhaps because he was reluctant to part, Zhiqing sent him all the way and saw him leaving Guishun City for thirty or forty miles. Chen Si refused to let him send him off again: "I'll send him off again, I'll follow me in Guangxi."
"It's good to go back with dad." Shen Zhiqing said with a pout, "I won't see you in the future."
"Don't do this." Chen Mo whipped him with a horse whip and scolded with a smile: "I thought I didn't know your intestines?"
"Haha..." Shen Zhiqing blushed and said, "Dad, what are you saying? Why can't I understand?"
"No wonder people say that Dahan Erjiān Sanguai Gu" shook his head silently and smiled: "If it were your brother, you would definitely not blush."
"My brother" Shen Zhiqing widened his eyes and said, "Does he like Sister Aman too..."
,Puff..., the guards around were laughing.
Chen Si smiled at the guards and said, "Don't laugh, this kid is pretending to be confused when he understands it!" Even if Chen Si and Yin Ruohan's son, how stupid can he be?
"I didn't..." Seeing that my father guessed everything he thought, Shen Zhiqing twisted and said, "I just wanted to go back with my father. Guangxi had just been pacified, and Sister Aman must need help around her."
"You're going to help you?" Chen Si held his smile and said patiently: "You don't know anything now. You can only cause trouble for your sister Aman. Learn all your skills from Master Wu so that you can help her a lot in the future."
"But, go..." Zhiqing held it in for a long time before he said, "I'm afraid that in a few more years, Shiqing will take the lead."
"Do you think everyone likes the Royal Sister?" Chen Shu laughed and said, "Don't worry, your brother told me before leaving that Sister Aman is not his food, so he wouldn't have snatched you." He said, "Boy, when did it start? If your brother hadn't told me, I really didn't know you had such a little thought."
"Actually, it's all the children's wishful thinking." Seeing that the father didn't seem angry, Zhiqing plucked up his courage and said, "Sister Aman always treats me as a child."
"If you say this, you are a child." Silent patted him with a whip and said, "First turn yourself into a man, and then conquer her. This is what a man does!"
"Well, I understand Bu..." Zhiqing never dreamed that his father would talk to him like this, and he said in a very emotional way: "I didn't expect you to activate it like this."
"When will my father pass?" I looked at his eldest son in silence and lovingly, and sighed for a long time: "Aji, when we part today, we will see you and my father and son again. You are alone in the south, but Mou Wan must take care of yourself.
”
"Dad..." The first time I saw my father's eyes feeling reluctant, Zhiqing's eyes suddenly became wet: "Take care too..."
The father and son bid farewell, Chen Si led the army back to the country all the way north. A few days later, he arrived at Zhennan Pass. In front of Zhennan Pass, the surrendered King Mo Chao Mo Maochao and Mo Dunrang knelt on the side of the road to greet him.
Silence represents Emperor Longqing, and severely rebuked their unjust behavior. Mo Maoqia and Mo Dunrang cried bitterly, expressing their sincere remorse. Mo Dunrang also cried and said that they had never thought of betraying the Celestial Empire. They were all the arrogant and arrogant devil Mo Jingdian who colluded with Wei Yinbao and even had the act of sending troops to the Celestial Empire. They could not even persuade them.
Chen Si rebuked them again for their indecisive attitude, and finally announced to the two of them that the court had dealt with the court. The Mo family should have been punished, but because of the first offense and the contribution of the suppression, he was given a lighter punishment and demoted the Annan Chief Commander to the Annan Xuanwei Envoy Office, and Mo Maoqian was demoted to the Xuanwei Envoy, north of Gaoping and south of Zhennan Pass as his territory, and was protected by the official army.
The Mo family thought it would be good to save their lives this time. Who would have thought that they would survive in a desperate situation and continue to survive as a chieftain, and also be protected by the Celestial Empire. Naturally, they were ecstatic and vowed to be the people of the Ming Dynasty forever and never rebel.
