Emperor Ming Dynasty

Chapter 201 A myriad of thoughts (third update, ask for tickets, ask for subscription)
The three war zones are limited to one city or one prefecture, it is better to control them.

As for the military region, it is basically based on the province as the unit. Similarly, it can also be converted into a war zone at any time.

Qin Yiming represented the chieftain's interests, and Zhao Guangyuan represented the guards, officers and soldiers.

Similarly, the two represented King Yu's interests in Sichuan and jointly supervised Wang Yingxiong.

Then again, in a sense, the military region is also a province, an initial attempt at dividing the provinces.

The province of Huguang is really too big.

At this time, the Hunan region is different from the rotten battlefield of Hubei, and it still retains its vitality.

The division of provinces is expected to become a reality, and the military region is such an attempt.

Although Sichuan is also large, it is not the right time, and the troops must be used wisely.

"Hunan region?"

Zhu Yixi looked at the generals, hoping that someone would volunteer, but all they saw were dodging eyes.

Finally, Zhu Yixi looked at the somewhat honest Li Jizu: "Li Jizu, Hunan will be handed over to you."

"You are in charge of Hunan, General Yang is in charge, and you are the vice-controller. You should be based in Changsha!"

"Ah?" Li Jizu was a little dazed, he didn't expect that he would be involved in this matter.

But after all, he remembered Zhu Yixi, and he responded obediently.

In any case, it is also a control, one level higher than the general soldier.

Yang Zhan, who was from Sichuan, was even more unexpected. You know, he was a member of the general and he was a new follower.

In the envy of some people, he and Li Jizu knelt on one knee to accept the order.

When the general soldiers began to flood, the control began to show its glory.

But Chen Yongfu, You Shiwei and other high-minded people looked at Li Jizu deeply, feeling a lot of emotion in their hearts.

Zhu Yixi nodded. How could he not value Li Jizu as a little brother?

In the future, the Lingnan region will be the biggest goal of military expansion, and the Hunan Military Region will show its prestige at that time.

This is military merit, a large number of merit points.

"As for the Hubei area, Zhu Meng of the Sanguan Camp is in charge, and Chen Dong of the Pro-Barracks Battalion is in charge."

It took Zhu Yixi a whole meal to discuss and complete this arrangement.

The direct descendants, the bandits, and the officers and soldiers, the three major factions, were all exposed to rain and dew, and they were all taken care of, and no one had anything to say.

To govern an army means to govern generals and people, balance and fairness are necessary.

The king of Yu gave them all the promotion and fortune.

I'm just disappointed with the scarcity of control, but it still can't extinguish everyone's happiness.

The banquet officially opened, King Yu sat on it, condescending, looking down at the crowd, watching every word and deed.

Self-proclaimed as the direct descendant of the Qin army, Li Jizu cordially discussed the trespassing war with Zhu Meng, and was quite interested in talking about its prosperity and decline.

However, the official army camp is the most powerful, but it is divided into two factions.

The frontier army led by You Shiwei looked down on the inland officers and soldiers headed by Chen Yongfu, such as Zhao Guangyuan, Yang Zhan and other Sichuan troops, so they simply divided them into two.

The rogue camp, headed by Bai Wang and Hui Deng, is not so subdivided, with a full face, bright eyes, and full of momentum.

They all gathered under the banner of King Yu, there were factions in the party, and people's hearts were different.

Orderly competition is what Zhu Yixi likes.

"His Highness He was granted the title of King Yu—"

Zhao Shu looked at the generals who were smelling of alcohol, couldn't help getting up, raised his glass, and congratulated him.

"His Highness He has been granted the title of King Yu!"

The generals also got up quickly and said respectfully.

"Congratulations—"

Zhu Yixi also laughed loudly: "This is not my joy, but the joy of everyone."

After speaking, he drank it down.

In this way, the atmosphere came to a peak.

Seeing this situation, Zhu Yixi tactfully left.

With him as the lord, no one can let him go.

Seeing that King Yu was gone, the generals became even happier. There was a steady stream of dirty jokes, and there were countless vulgar and slang words.

"Your Highness, Director Yan just said something about the copper coins."

Zhao Shu also took the opportunity to leave the banquet and found the breath-taking King Yu.

Described the matter of copper coins in detail.

"Since the finances are overwhelmed, let's do it!"

Zhu Yixi looked at the palace of Xiangyang Mansion, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Kong Fang can't do it, so let's imitate solid copper coins of silver coins!"

"The copper content should not be less than [-]%, and its size must be grasped."

The profit of minting coins is really too high.

Others don't know it, but Zhu Yixi understands that he has brought China from the copper and silver dual standard to the silver standard by himself.

But still not enough, the safest thing is the gold standard.

It seems that only after the trade with Japan will there be enough gold for coinage.

Perhaps, you can participate in gold mining in South America...

It is a pity that banknotes cannot be issued, and precious banknotes are like waste paper, which has no credibility among the people.

With drunkenness, Zhu Yixi thought more and more.

Back to the palace, the sisters went directly with each other.

With the help of the Buddhist teachings learned from Miaoxian, Zhu Yixi is quite interested in the method of arhat stacking.

The upper and lower sides were surrounded by softness, and for a while, the waves were turbulent, and it was difficult to hold on, and hundreds of millions of Buddhist scriptures gushed out...

The Dharma is boundless, and the sea of ​​learning is boundless. Zhu Yixi practiced a serious study attitude and became more and more sincere.

……

"Admiral?"

Runing Mansion, Xinyang Prefecture.

After being accepted, Hong Niangzi and her party also had a place to live.

Although Runing is large and has [-] prefectures and counties under its jurisdiction, because Li Zicheng decided to use Xiangyang as his base, he adopted a policy of plundering Henan, so that Runing was abandoned.

The so-called, when you look at the plateau, the rate is tens of miles, the taller ones are lush grass, and the lower ones are Julu.

On the other hand, the king of Hanyang also gave three thousand stones of food and grass, which solved their urgent needs.

But all of this comes at a price.

For example, at this time, Hong Niangzi has the canonized military order of the king of Yu in the hands of Hong Niangzi. With Hong Niangzi as the leader of the army, she will lead two thousand troops and enter Ruyang.

Ruyang is the prefecture of Runing.

"Red Lady, are you really going to Ruyang?"

The dignified and virtuous Mrs. Tang, her beautiful eyes were full of concern, she couldn't help saying: "If you make a mistake, what should we do?"

"I have to go!"

Hong Niangzi sighed, wiped the dust off Tang Niangzi's face, and said coldly: "Let's stay in Xinyang, it's the King of Hanyang, no, it's the kindness of King Yu."

"But there will be no pies in the world. Everything has a price."

Thinking of this, she tightly grasped the military order for the appointment and dismissal of generals, and she was even quite happy in her heart:
"I heard that the intruders were moving around Luoyang, and it must have attracted the attention of King Yu. We marched into Ruyang, fearing that they would threaten the intruders."

Seeing the happy expression on the red lady's face, Mrs. Tang was stunned, and she, who was smart, immediately asked: "You don't want to avenge your husband, do you?"

"Red lady, trespassers are powerful, don't hit the rock with your egg!"

"This is the best chance."

With tears in her eyes, the red lady showed a determined face, shaking her cloak, and said in a deep voice, "This is the best opportunity."

"I must take Li Zicheng's dog head as a memorial to Li Lang's spirit in heaven."

Her plump chest fluctuated, revealing her extremely excited mood.

Seeing this, Tang Niangzi said in a trance: "You can avenge your husband, but what can I do?"

"You take good care of the Li family."

The red lady said decisively: "Adopt an heir to inherit Li Lang's incense."

As she spoke, she looked up at the sky: "If I never return, I can still eat some incense in the future."
