Be the emperor from the postman

Chapter 974 Forming an Expeditionary Army

He Jinchao returned to Taiyuan and received a letter from Yang He from his son.

Yang He can naturally understand this little bit of his son, he wants to save his son's life no matter what.

For so many years in the Hammer bandit camp, if Yang He still can't see the situation clearly, it would be a waste of his life.

Although he doesn't have much talent in suppressing bandits, he was originally brought over to fill in the hole.

But the longer he stayed in He Jinzhao's anti-thief camp, the more he believed that Daming would be destroyed by He Jinzhao.

No matter what his son did, it would be tantamount to the destruction of Ming Dynasty.

It's just that all the towns in Shanshan and Shanxi are all serving He Jinchao. With these people as soldiers, it's hard not to fail to fight for him.

On the other hand, the imperial court may not even be able to pay soldiers and soldiers on time, let alone other treatment.

It was a heaven and a hell.

Logistics can't win.

Every locality is nothing more than falsely reporting a training number, and then desperately searching for wealth in the name of "training salary" and putting it into their own pockets.

"Dare to ask the commander-in-chief, how can I answer truthfully?"

"Have you been in business at home before?"

"No."

Now that he heard that He Jinzhao asked him to go to Macau together, he felt powerless.

The only requirement is to be able to swim and use firearms well. In the future, it will be a navy job.

"understand."

Chongzhen didn't intend to intervene, so I had to go in and intervene, someone came and called Zhao Xiaowu. "

Just relying on land transportation, trading with the Mongols, and indirectly selling to the Western Regions cannot be digested, and it is not appropriate to recruit refugees. "

These six towns soldiers have been the most capable soldiers since ancient times, right? "

This wave took the initiative to attack, almost thousands of miles away.

And Lu Xiangsheng himself had a death wish in his heart, and felt that his death would wake up the court.

This is the first time that the commander-in-chief has sent troops to occupy territory since he captured Sichuan, and it was even further south.

It didn't matter to He Jinchao, if Yang Sichang went out, it would only speed up the elimination of the vital forces of the Ming army and make Chongzhen hang himself sooner.

Now going outside to lead troops to fight, what can change the situation?
Marshal He's soldiers wished they could immediately pick up their swords and win titles for themselves.

He Jinzhao took the brochure and saw that in the past few years, in order to produce and let these people have work, he transformed many of the wealth of those princes into goods.

Most people feel that they are better than others, and they must do better than their predecessors in that position.

Under the influence of Little Binghe, He Jinzhao didn't have many ways to save him.

In order to gain the attention of He Jinchao, the imperial rebel, he also translated "The Complete Book of Mining and Metallurgy" by Agricola, a German mining and metallurgy scientist, and dedicated it to He Jinchao.

Otherwise, it would not happen that Chongzhen said to charge 50 taels, and then the people below received 500 million taels, telling the emperor that the people below are too miserable, can we pay taxes to the emperor for another year, etc.

At the beginning, Wu Dading gave orders with a majestic hammer, which really made him very envious.

"Yes, I'm going to send you 5000 people to start from Shanxi and go to Guangdong, and bring more people who are good at firearms.

This kind of thing was almost rare under the rule of the Ming Dynasty. Except for officials such as Xu Guangqi, it was extremely difficult for ordinary people to eat red eggs at home.

"That's not right. How can there be wars on several fronts? For the time being, we will form an alliance with Subadhi and support him in fighting Tsarist Russia." Zhang Fuzhen nodded hastily.

Or Zheng Zhilong didn't even look at it, and directly sent a messenger to the government.

"Principal Yang can say that the six towns on the nine borders of the Ming Dynasty all fell into the hands of my lord.

The Navy is a newly established military service. Now that it has joined the ranks, the Navy will expand its recruitment in the future, and it will definitely be able to go up.

Tell me, which ordinary soldier of the Ming army can live a good life like my hammer bandit?
Why do you, Yang Sichang, feel confident that you can defeat our well-equipped hammer bandits?
Besides, my commander-in-chief will leave Shanxi at any time and go straight to Beijing.

There was light in Zhao Xiaowu's eyes as he looked at the map.

"Master."

Yang He nodded again and again, relying on the Tang Dynasty, which is the Guanlong Military Group. The warlike nature of the Qin people to seek more benefits for themselves is passed down from generation to generation.

Zhang Fuzhen pinched his beard and said, "My lord, we can send people on the border of Shanxi to recruit refugees from the people of Henan."

It's a pity that inside the imperial court, they probably want him to die.

The imposition of taxes by the imperial court will cause more farmers to flee, resulting in barren arable land, and no one will cultivate it, falling into an endless loop.

On the other hand, the soldiers of the Ming army always think about when they will be able to pay their salaries.

"We have to get through the sea."

Zhang Fuzhen also understands that in terms of the effect of implementing salary training, the hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers of Ming Dynasty and the militiamen of various prefectures and counties are just talking on paper.

So many people eat horse chews, if you don't prepare more, you will be at a disadvantage in the future.

Coupled with the difficulty of marching on the road, this is all uncertain.

Let him become a real pirate in the future, don't even think about going ashore.

But today's Shaanxi is sparsely populated and needs people.

Wang Kexing and others were the first to sign up.

As the largest family of merchants who sponsored He Jinzhao back then, Zhao Xiaowu was forced into He Jinzhao's thief ship by his father.

Zhao Xiaowu made the request directly, with a hey smile.

Coupled with the fact that there was a grain bank to store grain before, the people of Shanxi became rich first.

Coupled with the Qing soldiers entering the fortress, he did not handle it very well.

He Jinchao forcibly relocated several times, looting everywhere to fill the population of Shanxi, and the land was almost divided.

Except for some fertile land in Shaanxi, the rest of Shaanxi has to rely on subsidies from Sichuan and Shanxi.

Yang Yuxiu held up a thick booklet:

Even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire, he still has to make a breakthrough. What a great opportunity!

"I want to open up a business route, and I need you to go, do you have the confidence to do it?"

"It's useless in recruiting refugees, and I can't afford it."

Now he can be regarded as experienced.

Zhang Fuzhen smiled and stretched out two fingers:
"In the past, there were 20 frontier troops in the six towns of Daming under the commander's command.

Of course, for this kind of expedition, there are some soldiers who are unwilling to leave their hometown too far, and the wife and children are the real business.

Now Tang Ruowang was appointed as a member of the expeditionary army by default, just to go to Macau to see if there are other talents like him.

"Yes." He Jinzhao patted the hammer beside him and said:
"But I have to give you a deputy. Yang Wenyue has done a good job in the south of Shanxi, so he should be transferred."

Especially the accumulated grain stored in Shanxi, Sichuan, still has to deal with the war.

Although Tang Ruowang also ate the red eggs, his heart was extremely bitter.

Such a miserable end can also make more people in the Ming court realize that there is no good end for being a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty.

It has to be said that this is an iron-clad fact, otherwise Yang He would not be so eager after hearing the news.

The news that the commander-in-chief was going to form an expeditionary force spread quickly among the army.

Many people are saying that their own commander-in-chief can replace the emperor surnamed Zhu in the capital and become the new emperor of the whole world.

"Marshal, am I the plenipotentiary representative of this move?"

But most of the time, you have to be in a hurry to figure it out, let alone talk about surpassing your predecessor.

"Yes."

You have to tell Yang Sichang that soldiers will be effective and invincible only if they win battles and live a good life.

Anyway, Yang He also said hello before sending it out.

It is better not to invest than to invest in these years.

After the Tang Dynasty, most of the forests here became deserts.

"Previously, in order to restore people's livelihood, we hoarded a large amount of raw silk, satin textiles, and wool products.

Fighting now is not conducive to the development of hammer bandits.

It's just that Chongzhen ordered the collection of training salaries, and that was our chance with others. "

But this kind of person would rather die than surrender to the hammer bandits, so death is the best.

Those who are not ambitious, put all the silver in their own cellar and hide it.

Zhao Xiaowu also wanted He Jinzhao's hammer.

Even He Jinzhao's large-scale organization of rescue and drought relief cannot be completely avoided, let alone other out-of-control territories.

Zhang Fuzhen didn't know much about shipping, but his master had sent people to Fujian, but unfortunately there was no news.

But when it comes to things such as giving birth, they will also bless the gods and Buddhas all over the sky to bless their wives to give birth smoothly, and they are not specific to the Lord at all.

He Jinzhao pointed to Guangdong with his hands behind his back and said:
"Now the entire sea is dominated by Zheng Zhilong.

They won the battle for Daming, so what?

Go far, go far, conquer the world, how can it be achieved without walking a little more?
"Send someone to call Yang Wenyue, Chen Chong and others over."

He also asked people to study the chemical fertilizer, most of which are manure, but it can't help the continuous disasters in Shaanxi.

He would only think that they were all lies, just to prevent him from sending out to suppress the bandits. "

"Since Yang Sichang wants to inquire about information from you, you should reply truthfully to him."

Which father can do things to send his son to die?

However, Shaanxi has been plagued by disasters for years, and it is almost very difficult to farm safely and steadily.

He said that if he didn't need money, he would believe it, but Tang Ruowang repeatedly promised that he would not need money.

For this, He Jinzhao was very happy, saying that he lacked useful foreigners like you, and Tang Ruowang was immediately awarded an official position by He Jinzhao.

Zhao Xiaowu hurriedly responded, and hurried out.

It's mostly useless.

Then he left.

"Yes." Niu Youcai responded and quickly delivered the order.

It's just that the generals have expanded their financial resources, and those who are ambitious can raise more servants.

The only one who ruled the roost with him was the Dutch East India Company, and Macau was occupied by the Portuguese at this time.

They are well fed, their armor is new, and their cannon are of good quality.

After arriving there to occupy the territory, do some business with others, and the goods will not be transported there until the road is opened. "

"Marshal, what are you calling me for?"

He Jinzhao stood up and took a few steps: "I don't bother to pay too much attention to the strife within the Ming court.

Not long after, Zhao Xiaowu came.

Although Yang Sichang was quite favored by the emperor in the court, once he left the court, someone would definitely take his place.

When Yang He served as the governor of the three sides, he knew how difficult it was to coordinate the soldiers below as a supervisor.

"Under Chongzhen's manipulation, the current Daming has already accumulated a lot, and even if Yang Sichang really wants to continue Daming's life, there will be countless constraints.

Zhang Fuzhen felt sorry for Lu Xiangsheng's death in battle, because this person's death in battle was completely avoidable.

"Lord."

With his current strength occupying the three provinces, if he dared to read it, he would not be able to read it back.

"Good good."

The Ming court was dilapidated by two fronts, and two fronts were the most taboo in war.

Yang Yuxiu continued: "We originally wanted to establish trade with Tsarist Russia, but the war is still going on there, the roads are not safe, and the red-haired ghosts also want to rob them, so we have to beat these grandchildren."

Yang He was also extremely worried about his son's life.

"Marshal, I'm afraid it's not easy to ask for advice on everything during the journey of thousands of miles. Please lend me the hammer."

He Jinzhao was not surprised by the correspondence between the two father and son.

After Yang He left, Zhang Fuzhen shook his head and said:
"My lord, Yang Sichang will definitely not be frightened by his father's words.

Hearing what the commander said, Zhao Xiaowu immediately rubbed his hands and said with a smile:
"Marshal, do you mean to open a business route?"

Yang He nodded, and he immediately wrote a letter, asking Zhang Fuzhen to read it.

After all, who wants to preach, but these people are not really religious at all.

"Okay, you go to the army to recruit brothers who are willing to go south, ask for water skills, and craftsmen are also indispensable.

There was an uproar in the Hammer bandit camp. Tang Ruowang went to Macau that year, and then went to the Central Plains.

"Now the Ming court mainly confiscates the land of Henan and Chu, where the people are hard-working soldiers rather than bitter thieves."

Zhao Xiaowu shook his head. At that time, he was not good at studying, and it was not his turn to do business. There were still a few older brothers in front of him.

Gain a firm foothold in Guangdong, or directly station troops in Macau. "

"Needless to say, I already know about your situation."

Even in Kham, Zhang Fuzhen used chieftains to deal with the Mongols, instead of the hammer bandits fighting in person.

They also have fields, houses, and wives at home.

It is too difficult to farm safely in this place.

It's all customary.

"Sea freight?"

The imperial court's huge increase in military pay did not change the treatment of soldiers of the Ming Dynasty at all.

"Ah."

There is no need to compare the two, there is no comparison at all.

Tell him to play it safe.Don't leave the capital easily and do the thing of hitting a stone with an egg. "

He made Lu Xiangsheng a stumbling block. Could it be that he thought that if he was a supervisor, he would not be able to meet Lu Xiangsheng's situation?
I really have never experienced the hardship of leading the army alone outside! "

"Correct."

In addition, the weather in the whole world is getting worse and worse, and it is extremely easy to cause a catastrophe.

He Jinzhao looked at the entire map of Daming and said, "Maritime transportation is extremely profitable. Only when this channel is opened up can refugees be recruited to work as transporters."

After He Jinzhao finished his orders, he asked Zhang Fuzhen to write another letter to Zheng Zhilong.

You can come together under the rule of the hammer bandits to study artillery, shipbuilding and other technologies, and you will be well paid.

But Tang Ruowang is a staunch believer, and once again conveyed his thoughts of wanting to preach correctly, saying that Emperor Zhu Youjian of the Ming Dynasty gave him four-character plaques and hung them in churches all over the country. I hope that Marshal He can do the same manage.

He Jinzhao expressed his indignation at this, and Chongzhen's operation was extremely substandard.

You just want to get such a big reward for making a little contribution to me, so I still send Italian missionaries from Chengdu to go with the army.

Tang Ruowang immediately said that the Italians are not as reliable as the Germans in doing things, and I will definitely get things done for Marshal He without bothering others.
