At this time, Emperor Chongzhen no longer cared about those false reputations.
What emperor? His ambition is to grow the ball!
Also, if you have to worry a lot about your own son, how can you accept a Japanese as your son?
As for the beauties and property of the Japanese, if they are destroyed, they will still belong to the Ming Dynasty!
The most important thing is that Liu Weichao said that this Japanese country has always been evil to China! As long as possible, they will covet it!
During the Wanli period, Toyogi Hideyoshi sent troops to use Korea as a springboard to attack the Ming Dynasty; in the original history, he once again attacked China.
For such an ambitious race, we cannot let them go just because they behave well!
The Ming Dynasty has no shortage of minions at all. As long as the Ming Dynasty is willing, there will be a lot of foreign and small countries to serve.
Among other things, Dongwu's Toungoo dynasty has expressed this intention several times. However, we must fight what should be fought, and the Japanese country is no exception.
Based on this idea, Emperor Chongzhen did not meet the Japanese envoys at all, and issued an instruction: destroy the country as planned, and the Japanese war must end this year!
This decree was transmitted to North Korea through signal tower transmission, and then the news was sent to Japan by speedboat.
The reason why it is so troublesome is not that the wired telephone company has not yet launched its business. Qiongzhou can already provide wires, and the output is slowly increasing as time goes by.
However, the initial supply of wires was all for the imperial court, which was to meet the needs of the imperial court.
The most important thing is the communication between the bank branches in the thirteen provinces of the two capitals of the Ming Dynasty and the capital headquarters.
With wired telephone connections, at least deposits and withdrawals between provincial capitals will not be a problem, which can solve great economic difficulties and promote economic development. Of course, these deposits and withdrawals must be of large amounts.
In addition, with the foundation of wired telephones, each province will set up manual exchange bureaus, local chief secretaries, police inspectors, etc., and they will be able to communicate with the capital.
As for the state capitals below the province, we still need to slow down and push them back.
In the future, if there is a situation in each province, there will be no need to send urgent calls 800 miles to the capital. Instead, the news will be sent to the provincial capital, and then the telephone office in the provincial capital will call the capital. This can achieve the shortest communication time and grasp the national news as quickly as possible.
.
Within the Ming Dynasty, everything was progressing step by step. For example, the infrastructure construction in various places, the navy's southward movement, the railways and city repairs in the Western Regions, the establishment of joint-stock companies, the appointment of vassal kings, etc., were all flourishing.
However, in Dongwu's Toungoo Dynasty, there was a kind of breathless depression.
In its capital city of Ava, all the pedestrians on the road were sallow, skinny, and poorly dressed. Fortunately, the temperature was not too cold. Otherwise, a large group of them would definitely freeze to death.
At this time, the king of the Toungoo Dynasty was still King Talong. The difference between him and the previous kings was that he adopted a policy of rest and recuperation to restore national strength.
If the original historical development is followed, these policies of his are indeed very effective, strengthening his ability to control Donggo and reorganizing it according to his wishes.
However, in this plane, with the fluttering of butterfly wings, his policy of recuperation and recuperation was interrupted, and he colluded with the Yunnan bandit Li Zicheng, intending to eat Yunnan when the Ming Dynasty was in turmoil.
Unexpectedly, the seemingly powerful alliance between the bandits and the chieftains, plus the troops sent by Donggo, turned out to be so vulnerable. After just one battle, the alliance fell apart and was wiped out. King Talong tried to steal the chicken but failed.
In addition to losing a lot of rice, he also made himself look sexy!
No matter how he expressed his surrender to the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty refused to give up and stationed troops on the border to avenge him for sending troops to invade the Ming Dynasty.
This frightened him so much that King Long could only assemble his troops and prepare for it, but he did not expect that the Ming Dynasty was shouting and shouting loudly, but there was no actual action, which wasted the money and food he had finally accumulated.
It's okay to say it doesn't matter, if the Ming army really comes to kill him, King Long won't be able to bear it.
He has thought several times about simply moving the capital to the south. However, moving the capital is so easy. What if the Ming army takes the opportunity to attack?
Also, the most prosperous place in Dongwu, where the granary is located, is in the Awa area. If the capital is moved, it will be equivalent to abandoning this place, which is something he, King Long, can hardly bear.
If you fight, you can't defeat the Ming Dynasty, but if you defend, it's very uncomfortable. In this kind of life, money and food are consumed every day, so that other aspects of the Toungoo Dynasty are all diverting money and food to prepare for war, and they don't know when it will end!
Are you worried?
King Long is almost dying of sorrow!
He has even foiled a rebellion conspiracy against him, but he doesn't know when the next conspiracy against him will be brewed? However, he can be sure that as long as this situation does not change, there will definitely be another one.
How many!
I am really worried to death!
Daming is really such a bully!
King Long was worried about him. In fact, there were several people in Ava City who were also worried about him. They were worried to death.
These people were Li Zicheng and his men who fled into the Toungoo Dynasty.
In the past, in order to change his predicament, King Long even thought of dedicating people like Li Zicheng to the Ming Dynasty, and he did so. It was a pity that the Ming Dynasty also wanted his head, so he let him
King Long let people like Li Zicheng go.
However, from this, Li Zicheng and others naturally knew that they were the meat and potatoes of the Toungoo Dynasty.
If the Ming Dynasty agrees one day, then these bandits will still be sacrificed to the imperial court by the Dongwu people. Even if they are not dedicated to the imperial court, when the imperial officers and soldiers come over, they will not escape death!
Is this situation worrying?
Li Zicheng and others are definitely very worried!
But on this day, Li Zicheng was uncharacteristically fidgeting in his yard, instead of having a frown on his face.
I saw him standing up from time to time, ignoring the scorching sun, walking to the door of the yard and looking outside. After he couldn't see what he wanted to see, he turned back to the eaves in disappointment and sat in a chair to rest. However, after a while, he
Then he would take a look at the entrance of the courtyard again, and so on.
In the end, Song Xiance beside him couldn't stand it anymore, so he said to Li Zicheng: "Brother, Brother Niu will not come back so soon!"
After fleeing into Dongwu from Yunnan, there was no army around him, and after being placed under house arrest by King Long, Li Zicheng no longer allowed them to call him General. It was really meaningless, so he returned to being the big brother he was at the beginning.
Hearing Song Xiance speak, Liu Zongmin beside him also advised: "Yes, brother, we have been waiting for several years, and we don't care about waiting a little longer!"
When Li Zicheng heard what they said, he knew in his heart that what they said was reasonable! However, this was the only chance to change his destiny and the current situation, and he cared too much about it. Therefore, he seemed worried about gains and losses.
At this time, after listening to what they said, Li Zicheng suddenly sighed and said: "I am all implicated, otherwise, maybe you all could be officials in the imperial court! But now you are just like me, I don't know what will happen tomorrow?
"
Of course he had a reason for saying this.
After Li Guo, Gao Yigong and others surrendered to the imperial court, they had already made great achievements and became generals commanding an army. This news had naturally spread after such a long time.
Even the younger generation, Li Guo's adopted son Li Laiheng, became a deputy general and soon became the commander-in-chief. This made them not say anything on the surface, but they definitely felt emotional in their hearts.
If they were in high spirits, killing officers and soldiers, attacking cities, and cooking feudal kings, then the general soldiers of the imperial court would be bullshit, and they wouldn't care. However, now they are like phoenixes that have fallen to the ground, not as good as chickens, and they are the swords of Dongwuren.
The fish meat on the dish will naturally feel different.
To be honest, if they could surrender to the imperial court, they might have wanted to surrender a long time ago. However, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty had already issued a decree that they were not allowed to recruit troops, which blocked their way to surrender to the imperial court!
If you ask me how much sorrow you have, just ask these people in front of you. They know it best!
At this time, when he heard what Li Zicheng said, Liu Zongmin first shouted with a loud voice: "Brother, don't say this. The court is dark and the emperor is stupid. We are against his mother, just happy! We are voluntary, and
Brother has nothing to do with it!”
After he finished speaking, he stared at the little dwarf next to him with his bull's eyes.
Like Li Zicheng, he was named and was not allowed to surrender because he dug up the Yellow River when he attacked Kaifeng. Therefore, he had no way out.
However, Song Xiance had not been named, and Liu Zongmin was glaring at him, forcing him to express his position.
Not to mention, Song Xiance had not considered sneaking away secretly or surrendering to the court. However, he was a scholar, a small man with no power to restrain a chicken. Under the eyes of Li Zicheng and others, he was not able to do anything at all.
There is no chance.
Although Li Zicheng actually mentioned it to him and asked him to surrender to the imperial court. However, Song Xiance knew very well that Li Zicheng was testing him. If he really wanted to abandon Li Zicheng, he would be chopped into pieces by Li Zicheng.
?
He has been with Li Zicheng and others for a long time, and he has long known that Li Zicheng and others are cruel! Otherwise, Li Zicheng would not have angered other rebels!
At this time, when Liu Zongmin said it and glared at him, Song Xiance quickly expressed his position and said: "What my brother said is nonsense. We are brothers of life and death. We don't want to be born in the same year, the same month and the same day, but we want to die in the same year, the same month and the same day. That's righteousness."
Keep your word in mind, and you will have no regrets in life or death!"
Hearing what they said, Li Zicheng seemed a little relieved, so he stopped talking and looked up outside the yard again.
After a while, he couldn't sit still anymore, so he stood up and ignored the harsh sun to look at the situation outside the courtyard gate.
Probably because he didn't see anyone, he frowned and walked under the eaves, muttering: "If you don't come back, his people will come back soon!"
