The first thousand three hundred and seventy chapters offer suggestions again
Zhu Ping'an saw that the Marquis of Linhuai seemed to have something to say, so he asked Liu Dadao and the others to escort the food and wages and walk in front. He and the Marquis of Linhuai slowed down and trailed a few meters behind them, leaving a distance for conversation.
Sure enough, the Marquis of Linhuai exchanged a few pleasantries and then sighed and said, "Oh, I regret not listening to my wise nephew."
"What is uncle referring to?" Zhu Ping'an asked softly, not knowing what the Marquis of Linhuai meant.
"A few days ago, you suggested that I petition the Holy One to build more warships and restore the old ones, but I didn't listen to you. One time when I was having a drink with Duke Wei, I mentioned this, but I didn't expect that Duke Wei would remember it. He
I submitted your suggestion to the Holy One, and the Holy One approved it. I didn’t know about it until I received the newspaper from Di yesterday. I heard that the Holy One also sent a reward to the Duke of Wei’s palace in the capital."
The Marquis of Linhuai beat his chest and said, regretting that he did not listen to Zhu Pingan's words. This achievement and reward should belong to him. If time could go back, he would definitely adopt Zhu Pingan's suggestion and go to the saints.
So that’s what happened.
To be honest, after hearing the news, Zhu Ping'an was a little happy, not because the Marquis of Linhuai did not listen to his advice, but because he was more happy for the warships at Jiangkou. The number of warships increased, the strength of the navy increased, and the power to fight against Japanese invaders increased.
It has also been strengthened, which is good news for the future eradication of Japanese pirates.
"When we were having a drink, Duke Wei Guo became a little absent-minded after hearing my suggestion, and then left in a hurry. At that time, I thought he was worried about the affairs of the rear family. Now that I think about it, he just hurried back to write some memorials.
I'm gone. This thief. I have to come to the door one day to ask Duke Wei for an explanation." The Marquis of Linhuai thought of the scene when he had a drink and shook his head repeatedly, feeling regretful.
"Uncle, calm down the fire, it will damage the liver." Zhu Pingan opened his mouth and softly comforted him.
In fact, it is not appropriate to criticize Wei Guogong too much for this matter. Although it is a bit unethical for him to sneak up on Shu, but after all, the advice is that you don't want it first. Others want what you don't want, so it is best not to be too harsh.
"This thief is still on guard. I have to come to him to ask for an explanation." The Marquis of Linhuai snorted.
Yingtian defense?!
After hearing what Duke Wei said, Zhu Ping'an's eyes couldn't help but light up. It turned out that Duke Wei was Yingtian's guard.
In Yingtian today, there are three people who are most powerful, or have the most real power. One is the Exhibition Machinery Engineer, which is actually the Minister of the Ministry of War of Yingtian, because the Minister of the Ministry of War of Yingtian will basically hold this official position concurrently, and the other is the guarding eunuch, and also
One of them is Yingtian Guards. The three of them are jointly in charge of Yingtian affairs. Although it is the Minister of the Ministry of War of Yingtian who calls the shots, the say of the other two cannot be ignored.
As he is responsible for the military preparations in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, he will definitely have to deal with them. In any case, Duke Wei Guo owes him a favor. It will definitely be smoother when dealing with him in the future.
After the Marquis of Linhuai regretted for a while, he looked at Zhu Ping'an with his small eyes and said with admiration, "The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and each wave is stronger than the last. The wise nephew was promoted to the fifth rank at the age of less than a year, and his vision is harmonious.
His ability is truly admirable.”
"Uncle, Ping'an deserves the award. I feel ashamed. It just happened to happen last time." Zhu Ping'an said modestly.
"My nephew is too modest. Ahem, I regret not listening to my nephew's words. I wonder if my nephew has any good suggestions about the current situation?" The Marquis of Linhuai stared at Zhu Ping'an with his small eyes without blinking.
, said with great expectation.
Forehead
Is this the reason for your visit? After hearing this, Zhu Ping'an finally understood the reason for the visit of the Marquis of Linhuai.
"Uncle, Ping'an has just entered the officialdom and has some immature ideas. What good suggestions do you have? Last time, it was just the right time." Faced with the expectant gaze of the Marquis of Linhuai, Zhu Ping'an gave a bitter smile.
"My dear nephew, if you and my uncle-in-law's family have anything we can't talk about, feel free to tell us what you think."
Linhuai Hou urged.
Well, after all that was said, what else could he do? Zhu Pingan couldn't help but smile bitterly.
However, the Marquis of Linhuai is a noble person and comes from a family of military commanders. Some words may be passed down through their mouths, which may be more appropriate than for me, a civil servant who has just entered the officialdom.
Zhu Ping'an raised his head and looked at Linhuai Marquis, "Uncle, Ping'an does have some immature ideas, please give me some advice."
"My dear nephew, you are too polite, but there is no harm in talking and we can learn from each other." Marquis Linhuai said with a smile.
"Uncle, the current situation has nothing more to do with my uncle's identity and responsibilities than the Japanese invasion." Zhu Pingan said softly.
"What my nephew said is true. Nowadays, Japanese invaders are becoming more and more serious. In coastal areas such as Shandong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Fujian, there are reports of Japanese invaders almost every day. Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Japanese invaders are now the worst."
Marquis Linhuai nodded and sighed.
"My uncle is now the admiral of Caojiang and the left guard of the naval army in the Yingtian Left Army Governor's Mansion. Let's not mention the Japanese invaders in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shandong, Fujian and other places for the time being, but only talk about the Japanese invaders in the area of South Zhili. Now the Japanese invaders are stationed in Baoshan, Jiangkou.
The sea was dangerous, and the wind was raging in the southern Zhili area. Taicang, Yingzhou, Xuzhou, Susong, Huaiyang and other places were harmed by Japanese pirates and suffered heavy losses. Japanese pirates roamed from one place to another. Due to administrative boundaries, the officers and soldiers in each place had their own
In order to fight, it was difficult to coordinate against the Japanese pirates, so they were taken advantage of by the Japanese pirates. If the situation was favorable, they would burn, kill, and loot. If the situation was unfavorable, they would flee to another place to commit crimes and escape the pursuit of the government and the army. The Japanese pirates became increasingly arrogant and suffered losses in various places.
It is becoming more and more disastrous. Ping An secretly believes that Yingtian is the fundamental important place, Zhenjiang and Jingkou are the throats of the Yangtze River and Huaihe River, and Guabu and Yizhen are the gateways to water transportation. Why not follow the example of the eighth and ninth years of Jiajing and other years and station additional general military officers in Zhenjiang?
Or the Jinshan Guard, which regulates the Yangtze River, has overall control over the Huaihai Sea, supervises the coastal defense, and has jurisdiction over the Su and Song prefectures, and coordinates the officers and soldiers from all over the South Zhili. In this way, the South Zhili people will play a game of chess, work in unison, and coordinate to fight against the Japanese. Wouldn't it be disadvantageous?
Alas. What does uncle think?"
Zhu Pingan thought for a moment and said softly to Marquis Linhuai.
As the Marquis of Linhuai listened, his little eyes became brighter and brighter. He nodded repeatedly and said, "Imitating the old practice of the eighth and ninth years of Jiajing, we will add a general military officer to take overall control of Huaihai, supervise the coastal defense, and govern the Su and Song prefectures.
Come, we can change the situation where each region fights independently and unify the military power of each region, which will be of great help to control the Japanese. Because there are old practices to follow and we will not overstep our bounds. My nephew suggested this, which is a great good, a great good."
This suggestion is simply tailor-made for me, and the value of this suggestion is much higher than the last suggestion of adding warships.
The Marquis of Linhuai was full of praise for Zhu Ping'an and was extremely satisfied.
Haha, Mr. Wei Guogong, can you steal my nephew? I want you to look good in a few days.
Thinking of the way Wei Guogong read the newspaper in his residence a few days later, the Marquis of Linhuai couldn't help but grin.
"At that time, the position of Commander-in-Chief may be difficult. For the position of Deputy Commander-in-Chief, my uncle will work hard to get it. There is still hope."
Zhu Pingan blinked slightly and said.
There is a follow-up. When the Marquis of Linhuai heard this, his eyes became brighter and his breathing became faster. Deputy Commander-in-Chief
This is a serial plan. The Marquis of Linhuai was extremely satisfied with Zhu Ping'an's suggestion.
