Su He's order was issued, and the governor's office and the cabinet focused on matters related to the southern expedition.
Wang Zhongce led the cabinet and carried out various matters in an orderly manner.
They began to select some officials, and most of them were officials who had made mistakes and some minor officials were promoted.
During the Song and Ming dynasties, Qiongzhou was a place where frustrated officials were exiled.
The current situation in Dahua, the three northeastern provinces and Java Island will be the best places for officials who have lost power.
In addition to selecting officials, Wang Zhongce also had to prepare a large number of immigrants.
Your Majesty's intention is very clear, to occupy that place permanently.
This requires clearing out local indigenous tribes and allowing Han Chinese to become the main population in these places.
The population in some provinces in China is still too dense.
With the current land output, it is difficult for the local area to feed this population, and food needs to be imported from the outside.
The Governor's Office received His Majesty's order, and everyone began to get busy.
The two busiest people are Chief of General Staff Li Fengming and Navy Minister Li Qingmu.
Li Fengming was responsible for formulating the plan for the southern expedition.
He didn't know much about the navy and needed to discuss combat plans with Wei Jingtao, deputy chief of staff of the General Staff Department.
Navy Minister Li Qingmu needs to reorganize the navy's establishment.
He wants to divide the current navy into the ocean-going main fleet and the guard fleet.
The military is still in the preparation stage, but some people have already started taking action.
Yang Qianhe, the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, called his right-hand man Yuan Pingsheng to his office room.
Yang Qianhe was silent for a while, and then said: "Lao Yuan, your application to go to the Western Regions was directly stopped by me.
You are also a capable person who has been following me for a long time, and your level is beyond words.
There is an important task in the bureau now that needs you to handle.
Our Military Intelligence Bureau played a great role in His Majesty's battle for unification.
The military intelligence provided and the former Ming generals who instigated rebellion are countless.
After the unification of the country, the secret guards became the Xuanwu guards, who usually guard the palace and replace the role of the Jinyi guards.
They serve as His Majesty's eyes and ears.
Our Military Intelligence Bureau is mainly responsible for detecting enemy intelligence.
After the reunification of the country, we suddenly found ourselves with nothing to do and no idea where our goals were?
I can only bribe some Houjin and Mongolian people.
But Xuanwuwei is better at this kind of thing.
The overall situation was very confusing before, and some people even regretted running from the secret guard to the Military Intelligence Bureau.
As the director, I am very worried when I see this situation.
It is said in the Military Book that if you know yourself and your enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger.
Our Military Intelligence Bureau is the eyes of the entire army.
If the army wants to win the war, it must not be blind.
I have issued a military order to Your Majesty. Our Military Intelligence Bureau will definitely be able to figure out the situation of the Dutch in Batavia.
Yuan Pingsheng, I leave this important task to you.
You must find out the strength of the Dutch before the naval fleet reaches Java.
Yuan Pingsheng, do you have the confidence to take on this task?"
At the end, Yang Qianhe also used the provoking method.
When Yuan Pingsheng heard about this mission, he was very interested.
Now the development of the Military Intelligence Agency is no longer as good as that of the Xuanwu Guard.
If you go overseas to open a military intelligence bureau, as long as you do this well, it will be a great opportunity.
The opportunity to go to Java Island, judging from the current situation, is much better than the Western Region he is about to go to.
Yuan Pingsheng wants to complete this task, and he will take this opportunity to put forward several conditions.
The forces controlling Java Island are Dutch, and they look and speak different words. It is extremely difficult to obtain precious information.
Yang Qianhe met his conditions and he was confident to complete this task.
"Director, this is a very challenging task.
I need to make two conditions.
The first condition is to ensure sufficient funds and dispatch some talents who are proficient in the local language.
When we go to a strange place, we can only use gold bars to clear the way.
Gold is the hard currency everywhere.
Gold bars are also the funds these people like to collect.
Without enough funds, I am not confident that I can collect intelligence.
The language problem also needs to be solved, as we don’t understand the local language.
If you can’t even understand the local language and writing, you won’t be able to start construction work.”
Yang Qianhe smiled when he heard that Yuan Pingsheng only made this request.
This subordinate works efficiently and does not make high demands.
He smiled and agreed: "Your request is normal, and the bureau has agreed to it.
For funds and related talents, go directly to Quanzhou Port, and someone will contact you then.
The Military Intelligence Bureau had previously set up a latent team in Quanzhou to prepare to explore the situation in various places in Southeast Asia.
We are not ready yet, war is about to break out.
Now it's up to you to fully take over this group and use the talents of this group to figure out the strength of the enemies in Java Island."
Yuan Pingsheng looked happy and continued: "Director, my last condition is that I want some of that kind of thing.
We are in a strange country and it is extremely difficult to find suitable products.
You must use that thing as a stepping stone to attract more people to the water.
The Dutch are a foreign race, so they should be able to use that thing."
When Yang Qianhe heard Yuan Pingsheng's words, his eyes became solemn. This boy was looking for trouble for him.
He thought for a long time, then took out a copper box from the cabinet and pushed it in front of Yuan Pingsheng.
"This is longevity ointment, it can enhance your success rate.
But we ourselves must not get involved in this thing.
If anyone comes into contact with this thing, you will never return to your homeland for the rest of your life.
I will also clean up the house myself when I come back."
Yuan Pingsheng picked up the box. The small box seemed as heavy as a thousand pieces.
He has seen the horror of what's inside.
No matter how determined a person is, if he gets exposed to this kind of thing, he will become a human being and a ghost.
But this kind of thing is indeed the best tool for their profession.
During the Unification War, some people wanted to use this thing to control the generals of the previous Ming Dynasty.
As soon as he made this suggestion, he was directly scolded by His Majesty.
His Majesty issued strict orders to the Xuanwu Guards and the Military Intelligence Bureau. Anyone who dares to use this thing on the Han people will be directly executed.
Everyone remembers this strict order. The Han people cannot use it, but the Dutch are barbarians, so they should be able to use it.
"Director, if someone really gets involved with this thing, I will shoot him without you taking action."
Yuan Pingsheng held the small box and walked out of the room with a heavy heart.
This kind of thing is a drug with outstanding effects.
But its powerful addiction can destroy a huge country.
His Majesty the Emperor monitors this kind of thing very strictly.
Even if the Military Intelligence Bureau uses one or two, it must directly indicate the purpose and report to His Majesty the Emperor.
He just wanted to give it a try before, but he didn't expect the director to directly allow it.
Yuan Pingsheng thought that he was thinking simply. It seems that going to Java Island will be more difficult.
But with the help of this kind of thing, Yuan Pingsheng is confident that he can get the most core information.
…………………………
It's a big deal to complain about injustice.
According to relevant regulations, Yanhuang Daily must continue to report every time the drum of grievance is sounded.
This is the first time that the drum of grievance has been sounded, and of course the relevant systems must be implemented.
Tang Defeng's case is not complicated at all and is easy to solve.
But Yanhuang Daily reported this incident in detail.
Wang's Tavern, a civilian tavern that sells sweet potato roasting.
Small traders in the surrounding area like to come to this pub to have lunch and chat.
Doufu Liu was drunk and asked, "Shopkeeper Wang, why don't you read the newspaper to our man today?"
At the Li's Restaurant across the street, there is a little girl playing music.
We men don't go to the Li family to support your old Wang family, but you read the newspaper to us every day.
We are all illiterate men, but we also want to know some important national affairs."
Someone next to him shouted, "Doufu Liu, don't you like listening to little girls playing music?"
You are short of money and can't afford to listen.
How much does a jar of shopkeeper Wang’s sweet potatoes cost? How much does a jar of Lao Li’s Erguotou cost?”
As soon as he said this, the people in the tavern burst into laughter.
Doufu Liu looked at the people who were making noises. He slapped the table and said, "Everyone is a fool. What's the point of making fun of me?"
The key is the question I raised, why doesn’t Shopkeeper Wang read the newspaper?”
Doufu Liu's words made all the guests in the tavern turn their attention to Shopkeeper Wang.
Shopkeeper Wang was a little confused. He wanted to read the contents of today's newspaper to these drunkards who usually like to fight in groups.
They really acted impulsively and started a drunken madness in his tavern, and then the situation became uncontrollable.
Shopkeeper Wang deliberately pinched his throat and said, "I feel the cold and my throat can't speak. Please be patient today."
Doufu Liu came to the counter with a bowl of wine in his hands and drank.
He took advantage of Shopkeeper Wang not paying attention and picked up today's newspaper.
"Lao Liu, I have a primary school student in my family. He is so smart.
When my son came home and did the questions, I learned to read.
Most characters cannot be recognized fully, but common characters can still be recognized clearly.
If you don't know Chinese characters, you are just being modest."
After Doufu Liu finished speaking, he read the contents of the newspaper while drinking.
"With the sound of drums, Tang Renshan raised his eyes and said, our..."
A big man stood up and grabbed the newspaper from Tofu Liu's hand.
"Tofu Liu, you just can't read, what are you reading?
As a handlebar type, I know more words than you.
I know more words, so I'll read the newspaper to you."
"Master Liao, you snatched my newspaper."
Doufu Liu took advantage of his drunkenness and yelled at Master Liao.
He had just roared twice when he heard Master Liao finish reading the contents of the newspaper.
Tofu Liu immediately threw the wine bowl in his hand to the ground.
"Damn it, when did we, a huge country, get bullied to the point of being bullied by barbarians?
Unforgivable, never forgiving.
Your majesty is wise and has decided to send troops to attack the barbarians.
I, Doufu Liu, am just a common man, but I often listen to shopkeeper Wang talking about newspapers.
I also know that only when the country is strong can we ordinary people be successful.
The country is ruined and the family is ruined. The most unlucky people are the common people like us at the bottom.
If it prospers, the people will not necessarily suffer. If it dies, the people will definitely suffer.
I don't understand any big principles. I only know that tooth for tooth and blood for blood.
If these barbarians dare to slaughter us Han people, we will fight back."
After Master Liao read the contents of the newspaper, he said excitedly: "Punch away with one punch to avoid hundreds of punches.
If we ordinary people can see things clearly, I believe the adults in the court can see them very clearly."
When the people in the tavern got the news, they were all very angry about this incident.
Support His Majesty the Emperor in sending troops to attack these barbarians who dare to massacre the Han people.
Yanhuang Daily published this incident.
The people all supported His Majesty the Emperor in sending troops.
If the Yi people dared to kill the Han people on Java Island, they would then dare to land ashore and kill the Han people.
The common people subconsciously believe that they must be completely wiped out of such hateful people.
…………………………
Degui Building, businessmen from the Dahua Chamber of Commerce gathered together.
They formed several circles.
Ding Wannian, Li Gong and others broke and reorganized the previous regional chamber of commerce into the Chinese Chamber of Commerce.
Nowadays, regional chambers of commerce have gradually disintegrated.
Things did not go as they thought, and all the businessmen united to help each other.
Instead, we use industry as a link to form an industry-focused chamber of commerce.
How can the relationship between fellow villagers be beneficial and reliable?
Once an industry chamber of commerce is formed, there is no way to stop it.
Ding Wannian convened the leaders of major industry chambers of commerce.
"Everyone is well-informed and knows what is happening in Nanyang, and His Majesty the Emperor has also made up his mind to send the navy to Nanyang.
This war will bring opportunities to some industries, and it will also bring crises to some industries.
I hope everyone will seize the opportunity and defeat those weaklings of the Southeast Chamber of Commerce."
Yang Wencai said angrily: "Our textile merchants sent ships to trade in Southeast Asia, and tens of thousands of pieces of silk were missing on board.
The fate of the crew members is unknown.
I think this is the hand of the Dutch. Many people in the Chamber of Commerce have been poisoned.
The Dutch must not be allowed to continue to develop. Your Majesty's approach is very correct.
The loss of this cargo ship caused many people in our Textile Chamber of Commerce to lose a lot of money.
I fully support Your Majesty's attack on the bandit-like Dutch.
If the imperial court issues war bonds, I will definitely try my best to buy them."
After Yang Wencai finished expressing his position, he said angrily: "Those weaklings in the Southeast Chamber of Commerce rely on their previous relationship with Westerners after the sea was completely opened.
These people don't do business well and unite with Westerners to suppress us.
If it weren't for the strict surveillance of the imperial court, these people would have dared to sell steam engines to Westerners.
After His Majesty sends troops, our relations with these Westerners will definitely deteriorate.
This will cut off the financial resources of those in the Southeast Chamber of Commerce.
Those people in the Southeast Chamber of Commerce are very good at inciting public opinion. We must be careful to prevent these people from inciting public opinion and affecting the policies of the Great China Dynasty."
When Ding Wannian heard what Yang Wencai said, he also looked down on those southeastern businessmen.
He had invited these people before to join their Chinese Chamber of Commerce.
At that time, they will jointly control the domestic market and sell porcelain and silk to Western businessmen at high prices.
These people are so short-sighted that they don't even want to unite and regard them as their biggest competitors.
Ding Wannian said firmly: "These people are grasshoppers after autumn, they will not grow up.
We don't need to be angry with these people. We should now focus on Nanyang, which is a treasure land.
Whoever moves faster will get greater benefits.
We are businessmen, we cannot let anger influence us, we should see the benefits clearly."
Li Gong said excitedly: "The benefits that Nanyang can bring are very huge.
The Spanish sold us a lot of sugar cane.
The sugar cane they sell is all from the Nanyang region.
If the navy can really capture this area, we can plant a large amount of sugar cane there, and then there will be no shortage of sugar in the country.
I heard that there is a plant called palm tree, which is extremely rich in oil.
If we can capture the Nanyang region, our country's oil shortage situation can also be alleviated.
This is good news for our chamber of commerce.
We must not let the Southeast Chamber of Commerce incite public opinion.
These people want to cut off our financial resources, and we must not allow them to do this."
Many businessmen in the Huaxia Chamber of Commerce can clearly see the wealth brought by victory in the war.
They reached a consensus that they could not let businessmen from the Southeast Chamber of Commerce manipulate public opinion.
We need to let more people realize the benefits that will come after victory in the war.
