Chapter 411
Feng Ziying didn't have that much time to think about his family's rewards. At this time, his thoughts were all entered into the open sea of ​​intensive discussions and negotiations-the strategy of borrowing was occupied.

"Master Zhang, I understand what you mean. Master Chai sent you a letter before leaving, and I was also entrusted by Master Chai to convey his meaning to you. The nine borders' food and salary must be the most important thing, but there must be some emphasis, Ji Liao , especially Liaodong must continue to increase investment, students can understand, but there is no need for Xuanda and Jizhen,..."

Feng Ziying and Zhang Jingqiu stood on the map board and explained patiently: "Currently Nurhachi's main energy is still on digesting and annexing the Hada and Huifa tribes of the Haixi Jurchen. The war against the Ula tribe has not yet made substantial progress. In the short term, it is impossible for them to commit crimes in the South..."

"Ziying, I know you have put a lot of thought into military affairs, so Zishu wrote to me and said, if you have worked in the Imperial Academy for one full year, would you like to come to the Ministry of War?"

Zhang Jingqiu also felt that Feng Ziying had a broad vision, considered far-reaching issues, and had put a lot of effort into military intelligence. He did not expect his research on the situation in Liaodong to be so in-depth, and was very pleasantly surprised.

According to the usual practice, Shu Jishi should enter the Hanlin Academy to take up such positions as editors and reviewers in order to have better development prospects in the future.

In other words, you have to stay in the Imperial Academy for at least a period of time. Only with this qualification can you be considered qualified to join the cabinet. The experience of the Shu Jishi who compiled history is innumerable.

Seeing that Zhang Jingqiu changed the subject, Feng Ziying also knew that Zhang Jingqiu was more worried about Xuanda and Jizhen's defense, so she couldn't help but sighed.

It seems that Jianzhou Jurchen has indeed put a lot of pressure on the capital, but he believes that now, or within three to five years, Nurhachi does not have the strength to go south.

Without completely annexing and digesting the tribes of Haixi Jurchen, without wooing or forming an alliance with Horqin and Waikha tribes, or even completely solving the Chahar tribe, Nurhachi will not rush south, at most he will It will just cause trouble for Liaodong.

The defense of Xuanda and Jizhen is of course important, but the financial situation of the imperial court is such that there must be a choice of priority, which still needs to be done according to the timeline.

Liaodong is the most important thing now, and now Hetao goes all the way to Bansheng. At present, the confrontation between Bu Shitu and Su Nang Taiji has formed. After solving the strategy of going west to Shazhou and Hami, we only need to stabilize Living in Gansu and Ningxia towns, it can be said that there will be no major problems in the entire nine-sided land, from three sides to the seven towns of Xuanda, so the defense of Liaodong should be strengthened in the future, and Jizhen should be taken into account, and then Denglai and Liaodong should be developed. On the front line, strengthen Liaodong's strength to curb the expansion of Jurchen.

But the new minister of the Ministry of War obviously didn't agree with his point of view, especially that Xuanda needed to strengthen defense as much as Jizhen, which Feng Ziying couldn't understand.

There is only so much money, if you lean towards one side, you must relax the other side, it is such a realistic problem, he always thought that Zhang Jingqiu would be clear about this issue, but now it seems that Zhang Jingqiu is not as smart as he imagined .

"My lord, where the students go is also the court's arrangement, and the students naturally obey, but what the students want to talk about now is the issue of Xuanda..." Feng Ziying felt helpless.

Zhang Jingqiu also smiled and shook his head, this guy is really persistent, does he really think he can't see the situation clearly?

"Ziying, if Xuanda is weakened, there will be many consequences..."

"Master Zhang, it's not to weaken Xuanda, but to temporarily stabilize the current situation. Whether it's Su Nang or Lindan Batur, it's impossible for them to commit crimes in the South within three to five years. Students dare to say this! And Jianzhou Jurchen didn't The courage to go south regardless of the flanks! Why can't the limited money be spent on more needed places? Don't adults understand the importance of Denglai? Strengthening Denglai is to supplement the stamina of Liaodong!"

Feng Ziying stared into Zhang Jingqiu's eyes and said word by word.

Zhang Jingqiu also looked at Feng Ziying. Changing to another concubine, Zhang Jingqiu had already sent a sentence, but Feng Ziying, he cherished his talents, and he also knew that the emperor admired this son very much.

Smiling, Zhang Jingqiu nodded: "Well, Ziying, what do you think about Shandong?"

"Establish the Governor of Denglai, take charge of the Second Guard of Denglai, Qingzhou Guard, and Tianjin Guard, set up a naval fleet, fully manage it, and open up the back road of Liaodong..." Feng Ziying was categorical.

Zhang Jingqiu was taken aback, and immediately contemplated.

There is actually a reason why he said before that he would continue to strengthen Xuanda.

After Wang Ziteng returned to Beijing, he said that the two towns of Datong in Shanxi had mobilized elites to fight the rebellion in Ningxia and Gansu. Now that the two towns are seriously short of troops, they demanded that they should be replenished immediately, and that they should give priority to military pay and food. The strong opposition from these warriors will have an impact on the entire opening of the sea and debt.

Moreover, Wang Ziteng also vaguely revealed that if he was asked to serve as the governor of the three sides, he would rather resign. This would inevitably lead to another wave of turmoil, and the emperor would not allow this to happen.

But now Feng Ziying has come up with another new strategy, the establishment of a new governor of Denglai and the formation of a naval fleet. This is undoubtedly a very attractive position. Maybe this can remove Wang Ziteng from the position of Governor Xuanda?

On the Liaodong side, Wang Ziteng didn't want to go and didn't dare to go. He didn't want to go on the three sides, but he couldn't be allowed to occupy the position of Xuanda Governor. Elite strength.

The Beijing camp was in the hands of Niu Jizong, and the soldiers of Xuan Da were in the hands of Wang Ziteng, and Wang Ziteng's methods were extraordinary. Maybe after another two years, Xuan Da might become Wang Ziteng's sphere of influence. This is something the emperor cannot tolerate.

In order to dismiss Prince Teng, there must be a position that is attractive enough and can be confessed to the outside world.

Governor Dunley, well, that's a good idea.

Seeing that Zhang Jingqiu suddenly fell into deep thought, Feng Ziying stopped talking and waited for Zhang Jingqiu's thoughts.

It took a long time for Zhang Jingqiu to wake up from his thoughts, but he didn't bring up this topic again, but only mentioned the possibility of establishing a naval fleet in Fujian and Zhejiang.

Feng Ziying immediately understood that Zhang Jingqiu must have been pressured by scholars and civil servants from the south. For them, since they wanted to open the sea and borrow money, the debtors must be southern businessmen. Naturally, they must protect the sea to the greatest extent. Trade security, so that they get their money's worth.

This is also a reasonable thing, but it involves many aspects, and it is inevitable that there will be some disputes.

After coming out of the office of the Ministry of War to check the time, Feng Ziying went straight to Qi Yongtai's residence.

"Master Qi, Master Zhang has basically accepted our point of view. Denglai must manage well in order to support Liaodong, build a water fleet and open Haidenglai. Do you think you can convince other people?"

Qi Yongtai couldn't bear to see the tired look on his student's face.

In the past few days, Feng Ziying, as an envoy of all parties, has been sending messages and messages, and she is very tired.

This is also unprecedented. After all, the imperial court has not yet formally finalized the Kaihai-debt strategy. It is worried that it will die prematurely due to resistance. , so compromises can only be achieved through this semi-open dialogue and communication.

Only when the opinions of all parties gradually unify and basically reach a consensus will the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of War formally propose a strategy to the cabinet and make it public. At this time, the court officials can discuss and discuss in the court openly. , more like a solicitation and discussion.

"Ziying, will Xuanda's side be a little thin if this is the case?" Qi Yongtai has a calm temperament and needs to consider every aspect, but this often means being a little conservative.

"No, Lindanbatur is still young and has not yet formally grasped the real power of Chahar, and Su Nang is too busy competing with Bu Shitu, and has no time to look south, but in another three to five years, I am afraid that Lindanbatur will have to be considered. The question is whether to support Lindan Batur to control Horqin and Waikalkha to compete with Jurchen, and support the winners of Bu Shitu and Su Nang to attack Chahar eastward in order to form a confrontation with Jurchen. It depends on the situation. It's decided."

Feng Ziying's words did not reassure Qi Yongtai, "Then what do you think?"

"Master Qi, it's hard to say now. If Lindan Batur really has the ability to control Waikalka and Horqin, then Dazhou should support him, and must suppress the Tumote people to avoid dragging Lindan Khan down. In this way, Jianzhou Jurchen will not tolerate Lindan Batur taking away Horqin and the tribes of Waikha. There is bound to be a war, which is beneficial to us. If we can’t control it, then we have to support Su Nang or Bu Shitu to go east to western Liaoning.”

Feng Ziying sighed softly.

In the history of the previous life, Lin Dan Khan was the latter. As a result, his collapse even collapsed the entire left and right wings of Mongolia. In vain, the Jurchens of Jianzhou took advantage of it, and the Jurchens who controlled the entire Mongolia could unscrupulously move from Liaodong The thousand-mile front in Hetao posed a threat to Daming, making it impossible for Daming to defend against.

So Feng Ziying is worried that Lindan Batur may still be the same as in the previous life in this life, and the inertia of history is often quite huge.

"You're not optimistic about Lindanbatur?" Qi Yongtai sensed Feng Ziying's worry, and said carefully: "If Lindanbatur is an adou who can't afford it, Horqin and the Waikalkha tribes are temporarily powerless for us. Can you make a fuss about the remnants of the Ula and Yehe tribes of the Haixi Jurchen?"

Feng Ziying's eyes lit up, and Qi Yongtai actually started to pay attention to military affairs. This was a novelty, and he suddenly realized: "Master Qi, are you going to join the cabinet?"

 There are two more at twelve o'clock in the evening!Lao Rui asked for a guaranteed monthly pass for June, and tomorrow I will beg my brothers to prepare the guaranteed monthly pass and give it to Lao Rui!
