Longevity begins with Jinyiwei

Compared with the indifference of the people, in the court, the reaction to this war is obviously much greater.

In the Qianqing Palace, all the military staff of the General Staff Headquarters were busy, summarizing the military situation from all over the place, arguing endlessly.

In front of the military situation map, all the cabinet ministers and ministers of various ministries stood, and beside them were Wu Xun from the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies and several first-class military staff officers from the General Staff Department.

Between civil and military forces, the battle over this military situation map was full of red faces, and its intensity was no less than that of the puppet Ming court.

The Son of Heaven was sitting in the side hall, but he was sipping tea unhurriedly. As for the civil and military debate, he seemed to have not heard it at all.

The root of the problem between civil and military is very simple.

Regarding the war between the south of the Yangtze River and the northern border, Wu Xun was unscrupulous.

The civil servants who were new to Daheng's military affairs were very cautious, for fear of mistakes and problems.

Such an argument, the Son of Heaven naturally has no intention of participating in it, and is even happy to see it succeed.

Today's Daheng Wuxun General, under the great victories, seems to be proud of his soldiers. At this time, it is obviously a good thing for someone to pour cold water and take the helm.

Otherwise, the emperor has no doubts, it is really hilarious, and it is probably not an attack from the south to a defense from the north.

That's two sides blooming and a full-scale war.

Thoughts flashed, the emperor put down his teacup, turned his chair, and looked at the map of Daheng in the side hall.

The foundation of Nanming has never been the weak Nanming guards, but the navy.

The existence of the navy gave Nanming the confidence to advance, attack, retreat and defend, and if the Nanming navy could not be contained, it would undoubtedly be difficult to wipe out Nanming.

It is obvious that the recovery of Penghu and the annihilation of the Penghu Navy of the Nanming Dynasty have no suspense in this war of pacification.

The Fujian navy of the false Ming Dynasty was squeezed to the coast and lost the most important mobility of the navy.

The only thing left is the horizontal push on land. The ending is already doomed. The only unknown is when the Jiangnan battle will end.

And, it is destined to be difficult to rule Jiangnan.

Looking at the land in the south of the Yangtze River, the emperor subconsciously looked at the ocean on the map.

Penghu...Taiwan...Luzon...Champa...Sumatra...Manchuria...

There is no difference from Southeast Asia in later generations, but, without exception, there are traces of Western Yi.

There is no doubt that before human beings set foot in the starry sky, the ocean is the future of human beings.

Whether it's the humiliation of later generations or the current grand plan and hegemony, Daheng obviously has a certain demand for these places.

The center of gravity of Daheng in the future must be in the ocean!

Only in this way, Daheng will never rest on his laurels!

Only in this way can we have enough wealth to support the people of Daheng!

There is no doubt that there is a world of difference between the wealth of a country and the people of a country, and the wealth of the world and the people of a country!

He wants to make this sea area the inland sea of ​​Daheng!

In the past 5000 years, who wrote the history and the glory of civilization will always be in this land of China. In the future, the Han people should also lead the direction of the world.

Thoughts flowed, the eyes of the emperor also fixed on the city of Nanjing.

According to the strategic layout in his mind, Beijing, the capital, obviously cannot support such a strategic layout.

Stepping into the ocean and devouring the wealth of the world means that the commercial and maritime trade in the south of the Yangtze River will develop rapidly with the times.

And if the imperial court is still in the north, the phenomenon that the control of Jiangnan is weak at the end of Ming Dynasty, and the local wealth is difficult to be used by the imperial court will inevitably reappear!

Moreover, commercial sea trade is developing rapidly, if the imperial court cannot get in touch with it in time, it will inevitably lead to a backward policy on commercial sea trade, resulting in various loopholes in the system and accumulating huge ills!

Furthermore, the importance of maritime trade lies in the navy, which lies in the ocean-going navy. The imperial court has been in the north for a long time, and its control over the navy will undoubtedly be greatly reduced!

Not to mention Taiwan and Luzon, these places are quite far away from the south of the Yangtze River, let alone the capital of Beijing in the North, and there is no effective way to go back and forth for more than half a year. rule!

As for Nanjing, it is undoubtedly an excellent choice. It is connected to the river and the sea, radiating from the north to the south. It is undoubtedly of great benefit to Daheng's marine strategic layout. Similarly, it can also support Daheng's development of the ocean!

Of course, everything has pros and cons.

Moving the capital to the south will inevitably lead to weak control of the northern border towns, and will inevitably make the development of the north weak. At the same time, it will certainly be impossible to maintain such extreme disaster relief. Of course, there is the most important grassland border trouble!

It will also make the imperial court fall into prosperity, thus losing fighting spirit, getting used to stability and stability, and weakening combat effectiveness...

All kinds of disadvantages will inevitably appear.

The gaze of the Son of Heaven moved between Tibet and the grasslands, and then it was fixed between the rivers and roads in the north and south.

If there is a problem, then there is a solution. If there is a concrete road connecting the north and the south, then, even if there is no change in the means of transportation, the speed of land transportation can be increased by at least ten times!

For example, repairing rivers, strengthening sea trade, and using rivers and seas can also strengthen the connection between the north and the south.

For example, on the frontier of the grassland, a thorough plowing and sweeping is enough to severely damage Mongolia and bring peace for more than ten years. When technology develops and the real generation gap of firearms appears, several more plowing and sweeping will be used to suppress it with iron and fire. , to win over by business, Mongolia will naturally complete the transformation from rebellious to singing and dancing.

The only thing to worry about is the control of Tibet, but as long as the court is determined, this can also take time to evolve. Moreover, to completely solve the problem of the grassland, the Tibet must be pacified.

Otherwise, the plague of the grassland will never be eradicated.

As long as new learning flourishes, science and technology prosper, and industry and commerce flourish, all problems can be resolved gradually.

It's just that these problems in the north must be resolved before the capital is moved. Otherwise, when the political, military, and economic centers are all in the south of the Yangtze River, it will not be so easy to solve the northern problems at that time.

"Ten years... 20 years?"

The emperor muttered to himself, but his heart became more and more urgent.

He is no longer young, standing in his thirties, although he is in his prime, but in this era, the average life expectancy is only in his fifties.

Even if he is successful in martial arts and has strong energy and blood, who can guarantee that he can live a long life!

But what he wants to do, the great cause he wants to create through the ages, has only just begun.

And these things can only be done by him, and only he can do it!

No matter how wise the king of future generations is, he can only tinker with the framework he set!

If he doesn't do too many things, no one will ever do them before he suffers a big loss!

Chapter 557 Internal and external troubles, demons dancing wildly

"What do the General Staff and the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion do for food?"

With the north wind fluttering and the battle flag flying, Duke Zhao Wu of the Liao Kingdom sat on the battlements cursing, not paying any attention to the terrifying distance between the tower and the ground.

"Damn it, if I knew I would have gone to Jiangnan, being a striker is better than being here!"

Zhao Wu jumped down from the battlements, still cursing: "Even if you defend, you are not completely beaten!"

"Your Majesty has said that the best defense is offense!"

"Slap him first, and it won't be too late for us to guard!"

"I'm trapped here in Juyongguan, with tens of thousands of troops, eating and sleeping every day, and eating and sleeping, what is this?"

The deputy general laughed along with him, but he didn't dare to answer. He didn't dare to say these words.

After cursing and cursing, Zhao Wu lost his energy and leaned weakly on the battlement with a look of lovelessness on his face.

He didn't know what the group of civil servants were thinking about keeping him in Juyongguan.

Border towns, after so many years of war and management, the defense system has already been completely reborn. All major border towns are hoarded with heavy troops, and each major city has dozens of red cannons at every turn.

Such a strict and perfect defense system is completely like an iron wall. Even if Lin Dan Khan attacks aggressively, it is estimated that he will be hit with blood.

In a short period of time, it is impossible to break through the defense system of the border town.

Put him here to help him in an emergency, not to go to the border to organize a big battle.

But when he thought of the fierce battle in the south of the Yangtze River, one by one commanding thousands of troops to destroy the country, he was blowing wind here, and after blowing the wind, he had to fight a war that could only be defended but not attacked, he thought. I feel bored just thinking about it!

"Okay, don't stick around here, hurry up and find out, where is that shriveled Lin Danhan, is it Datong or Xuanfu?"

"Damn it, this bastard, I'm going to kill him sooner or later!"

……

But at this moment, on the Monan Grassland, the battle flags covering the sky and the sun were waving, and the torrent of iron cavalry stretched to the sky, just like in the past, rushing away to the south once again.

The post-gold iron cavalry who once drove Lin Danhan away from Mobei is now insignificant in this torrent of iron cavalry.

But as the undisputed master of this torrent of iron cavalry, the Great Khan of Mongolia, Lin Dan Khan, did not appear to be in the slightest of high spirits at the moment.

In the past, he thought that Emperor Daheng would personally march to the south of the Yangtze River, but now the situation is very clear, Daheng marched on both land and water, sweeping across the south of the Yangtze River, while Emperor Daheng still sat in the capital without any movement.

This person is in the capital, and Lin Danhan doubts very much whether he will run into another head of blood when he goes south, and then return to the grassland in desperation.

Even, this time, could it be a trick for him?

To seduce him to go south?

Thinking of this, Lin Danhan felt a little guilty.

Even with the army around, he didn't feel the slightest sense of security.

My family knows their own affairs. After the last alliance, Jin went south in a big way. Not to mention not getting the slightest benefit, he also suffered heavy losses. This made many tribes have opinions on him as a big khan.

This time, if it happens again, his position as the Great Khan of Mongolia will probably be unstable!

As his thoughts flowed, Lin Danhan looked rather gloomy, and his gaze wandered around the banners representing the leaders of various ministries, and the chill had already emerged.

"Great Khan, Taiji has already led his troops out!"

A general came galloping on horseback, clasped his fists and reported.

Lin Danhan looked towards the direction of Hetao, and there seemed to be worry and anticipation in his eyes. After a while, he nodded: "We will proceed according to the plan, tell Abu Nai..."

Speaking of this, Lin Danhan pondered for a while, but still didn't say anything, but in the end, he changed the subject: "Look at Dorgon and Azig, they are wolves, and wolves are not so easy to obey! "

"The last will obey!"

Lin Danhan didn't say any more, and the generals on the side also resigned.

……

Shaanxi.

Since the early years of Chongzhen, the emperor led the Yongwei Battalion into Shaanxi to suppress the rebellion. The first battle was Yan'an Mansion, and it was the battle that wiped out Yan'an Mansion that year that brought the whole of Shaanxi back to peace.

As time went by, border towns rebelled, and the whole of Shaanxi naturally could not escape the fate of being swept by the flames of war.

Naturally, the court at the time could not talk about disaster relief. It was not until the end of the Ming Dynasty that the emperor defeated the two thieves Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, and completely suppressed the rebellion. Shaanxi, which had been in chaos for many years, returned to order.

But order belongs to order, and natural disasters also belong to natural disasters. The whole of Shaanxi can be said to be the hardest hit area in the whole world!

Drought year after year, hardly a drop of rain!

Today, under the government's engineering disaster relief policy, the whole of Shaanxi has become a huge engineering site!

Up to now, there are more than 350 million young and strong people registered by the imperial court to participate in the project, and there are more than 170 million people in Shaanxi!

More than 170 million young and strong, under the overall planning of the Ministry of Industry, are building roads, building canals, or expanding reservoirs and rivers on this dry land of Shaanxi...

Projects, large or small, are in full bloom in Shaanxi. In the name of the project, the people affected by the disaster in Shaanxi are provided with the qualifications to survive.

In order to coordinate the engineering and disaster relief of the entire Shaanxi, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Households, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Ministry of War, and even the Daheng Engineering Institute, almost half of the civil and military departments of the imperial court, and hundreds of officials, in order to maintain stability, mobilized nearly One hundred thousand troops participated in the disaster relief project.

For example, in Liquan County, Shaanxi Province, according to the plan of the Daheng Engineering Institute and the Ministry of Industry, nearly [-] young adults were mobilized to build a large reservoir in the Liquan County section of the Jinghe River to regulate the flood of the Weihe River and store the water in the reservoir for radiation. Surrounding counties!

According to the estimation of Daheng Engineering Institute, it only needs to wait for the dew from the sky to store water in the reservoir. Even if there is another drought, the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in the surrounding counties can be protected, and the people's ability to resist disasters will be greatly improved. Greatly reduce the possibility of cement and sand accumulation on the river bed of the Weihe River and flooding!

The Liquan Reservoir began in May of the fourth year of Zhaowu. Up to now, most of Liquan County has become a huge construction site!

Bullock carts, horse-drawn carts, and even human-powered carts loaded with sand, gravel, cement, bamboo chips, and green bricks were constantly transported to the reservoir project site.

On the construction site, countless people are busy with all kinds of farm tools. From time to time, explosions can be heard that resound through the sky and the earth. The mountains and rocks are excavated. After only a few months of construction, this Liquan Reservoir has already begun to take shape.

But nowadays, the construction site that seems to be in order is already undercurrents. The secret work in Mongolia, the secret work in the East Factory, and those with ulterior motives, when the clouds of war are shrouded, there are already demons dancing around.

On the hill to the west of the reservoir, the original Ningshan Village in Liquan County has become the place where the Liquan Reservoir project is coordinated. In the village, there are soldiers standing tall, which can be called heavily guarded!

In a dilapidated courtyard on the northwest side of the village, there was a burst of shouting, and there were bursts of explosions, followed by heart-pounding wailing. The entire courtyard was already filled with a disgusting stench of blood.

In the courtyard stood guards in brocade clothes, and outside the courtyard were battalion soldiers in armor.

In the wailing room, it was a complete hell on earth, the room was stained red with brown blood, and on the torture racks, there were prisoners who had been tortured beyond human appearance.

Several Jinyiwei are still mercilessly using all kinds of cruel punishments on these prisoners.

"There are secret Mongolian works, and there are false ones..."
