I'm really not doing business

Chapter 192 A Brand New Cannon Casting Method, Patentee: Qi Jiguang

The period when Yin Zhengmao pacified the Wodang bandits in Guangdong and Guangxi was from the fifth year of Longqing to the second year of Wanli.

During this period of time, the Ming Dynasty was really poor. Emperor Longqing, Longyu, was the guest, and the entire Daming Palace was demolished. Only 40 taels of silver were used to build the imperial mausoleum, and the final payment was made up in December of the first year of Wanli.

How can there be such a shabby mausoleum in the mausoleum of the Ming emperor?
It really does.

The mausoleum of Emperor Chongzhen cost a total of 3000 taels of silver.

At that time, the Ming court was poor, but Yin Zhengmao had to find a way if he wanted to conquer the bandits in the extreme south of Guangdong and Guangxi.

In the process of finding a solution, there will inevitably be corruption. Daming handed over all the Zhengfu from Guangdong and Guangxi for four years to Yin Zhengmao, and let Yin Zhengmao go to suppress the bandits and fight against the Japanese.

Therefore, Yin Zhengmao won, but the military pay of the three thousand guest soldiers, and the notoriety of harshly criticizing the powerful and wealthy gentry, were all Yin Zhengmao's crimes of corruption.

Yin Zhengmao's answer was also frank, saying directly that he had raised guest soldiers. After the war in Guangdong and Guangxi settled down, the placement of these guest soldiers became a huge problem.

At that time, either he followed the proposal of the court officials, dismissed the guest soldiers, promoted Yin Zhengmao to be a minister in Nanya, and seized his military, political, and financial power.

Either listen to the opinions of the courtiers, recruit Lin Afeng, and capture Luzon, so that these guest soldiers and pirates have a place to run wild.

Ting Yi, Zhang Juzheng, and Zhu Yijun finally chose the latter, and now it seems that the results are pretty good.

"What do you think, sir?" Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Juzheng and asked Zhang Juzheng's opinion. There were two courtiers in the side hall of Wenhua Palace, one was Zhang Juzheng and the other was Yin Zhengmao.

At that time, Zhang Juzheng kept writing letters repeatedly to prevent Yin Zhengmao from being corrupt, but Yin Zhengmao seemed to ignore Zhang Juzheng at all.

Zhang Juzheng bowed his head and said: "The hall of the Yin Ministry is loyal to the emperor and the country, all the whales are slaughtered, the place is peaceful, and the merits of the public are possible; to drive away the soldiers who are present, it should be a sudden change, and in the place of self-war, guard against the thieves and soldiers who are bound to die. It is impossible for the whole division to achieve victories without any other adjustments, and the service is not overwhelmed by the time. The ceremony of rewarding the shadows has not yet been paid enough, and the simplicity is in the heart of the emperor, and the great responsibility will have a day."

If Yin Zhengmao was in Guangdong and Guangxi, Zhang Juzheng would never speak so highly of Yin Zhengmao, but Yin Zhengmao has already arrived in Luzon!
The imperial court's rewards are no longer enough to reward Yin Zhengmao's achievements. Jane is in the emperor's heart and has a great responsibility. That is to say, the past is over. Naturally, I won't hold on to it anymore.

The interesting part is here, when Ling Yunyi went to Guangdong and Guangxi, the rich and powerful men and gentry in Guangdong and Guangxi all missed Yin Butang.

Yin Zhengmao is greedy and demanding, but Ling Yunyi is bloodthirsty!
Yin Zhengmao knew, because many wealthy gentry from Guangdong, Guangxi and Guangxi wrote letters to Yin Zhengmao, asking Yin Zhengmao to persuade Ling Yunyi that if you apportion, you should apportion, and if you want money, you need money. Don't engage in such movements as killing people, it's too scary.

"Did Yin Butang recruit pirates in Luzon?" Zhu Yijun asked the second question, asking Yin Zhengmao, what do you mean by recruiting pirates in Luzon?In addition to financial independence, you also need military independence, right?What are these pirates trying to do!
This is also a question that Yin Zhengmao must answer.

Yin Zhengmao bowed his head and said, "Yes."

"Your Majesty, the ministers are in the extreme south, and most of the pirates are desperadoes. But if there is a way, they are not desperate. Desperate, desperate, fleeing for their lives. The ministers gather for their lives. It is a taboo in the country. There are very few Han people in the Song Dynasty, so this method was born. For Ming Dynasty, they are pirates, but for Luzon, they are Han people, and they are one of the pillars of Luzon Governor's Palace in Luzon."

Yin Zhengmao flicked his sleeves and knelt on the ground and said, "I'm panicked, Rong Chen justified one or two things."

"Where does the theory of combat power come from in exile? He is emaciated, has no sense of shame, refuses to obey the discipline and restraint, gathers together and fails to disperse, but a group of mobs, the minister's strong soldiers, recruit soldiers from the two regions, gather in exile, and call it peace Hai, on the second day, Anmin. It’s just to give them a chance to breathe and settle down.”

Yin Zhengmao justified his actions. Lu Song was suspended overseas, and his own Han people were few, so he recruited exiled pirates in Guangdong and Guangxi. First, to reduce the gathering of pirates and prevent them from gathering and causing chaos. Second, to stabilize Lu Song. Song Governor's Mansion in the local rule.

That's why he did it.

Yin Zhengmao has been suppressing Japanese bandits for so many years, how can there be so many desperadoes, the most are a group of ordinary people who can't survive, they just take risks and go to sea for their lives.

If you look at Yin Zhengmao's words from another angle, it is to sympathize with the civil unrest, which is a serious crime!Those who sympathize with the rebels, do you, Yin Butang, also want to join the civil rebellion?
This is a matter of position, but Yin Zhengmao still said it, and he has a clear conscience.

"Yin Butang, if you play right in private in the future, you will be exempted from the big ceremony. You don't need to kowtow to answer." Zhu Yijun asked Yin Zhengmao to get up to answer, and then looked at Zhang Juzheng and asked: "What do you think, sir?"

Zhang Juzheng bowed his head and said: "I think Yin Butang's words are true. If you want to make extraordinary achievements, you must do extraordinary things. Gathering for a while is just increasing the number of Han people in Lu Song."

Zhang Juzheng bypassed the question of position, and was quite satisfied with Yin Zhengmao's answer.

Because this involves the issue of the efficiency of Ming's control over Luzon, the Luzon Governor's Office is highly dependent on the support of the Ming court, which is good news for Daming. The core of the Luzon Governor's Mansion's rule over Luzon is three thousand recruits , and these people are Ming’s recruits, this is the root, as long as this root continues, Ming’s rule over Luzon will not be broken.

"It's true." Zhu Yijun said with a smile.

Yin Zhengmao was a little confused. In his opinion, these two things cannot be passed so easily!
His corruption in Guangdong and Guangxi has caused a lot of trouble. Zhang Juzheng always asks him to restrain himself in his letters. The powers and tyrants of Guangdong and Guangxi even impeached him in his congratulations. So easy to pass the level, that's all, Guangju escaped, unexpectedly passed the level smoothly?
This is a matter of position. Is the court really not afraid of Yin Zhengmao's big troubles in Luzon?
Yin Zhengmao was actually very pessimistic about entering the capital this time. He was no longer a child. He was too clear about the messy appearance of the court. Although everything he said was true, it still needed the emperor and Yuan Fuxin.

Chaotang was able to tell the truth, and His Majesty thought it was reasonable!

This is even rarer than the sun coming out from the west!Is it possible that I am really a member of the old Zhu family living among the people?Otherwise, this kind of holy family is really unjustifiable.But in terms of how hard his father beat him when he was a child, it was definitely his own father.

Zhu Yijun looked at Yin Zhengmao's slightly shocked expression, and said with a smile: "Yin Butang, contradictory, I have to read it."

The main contradiction of Yin Zhengmao in Guangdong and Guangxi was the suppression of the Japanese bandits, and the others were secondary contradictions. The main contradiction of Yin Zhengmao in Luzon was to maintain the rule of the Ming Dynasty, and the others were secondary contradictions.

So even if what Yin Zhengmao said is a lie, these two reasons are completely sufficient. As long as the main contradiction is being resolved, then the rest of the matter need not be so fussy.

Zhu Yijun can still understand the priorities.

"The third question is about the Luzon City Shipping Department. The imperial court sent the admiral eunuch and the Haiphong Tongzhi to set up the capital salary office. What does Yin Butang think?" Zhu Yijun asked another question that was the most discussed.

Governor of Luzon, Daming collects taxes in Luzon, does Yin Butang agree?
This is a matter of conflict of core interests, which is related to the distribution of interests.

"As it should be, responding to coastal defense, anti-smuggling, and tax collection are common affairs of the imperial court, and the ministers can't rebel." Yin Zhengmao said without any hesitation.

Taking a step back, if Yin Zhengmao really wanted to become king on his own, he had to get the support of Daming. If he didn't pay taxes to Daming, why would Daming support him?The five-masted ocean-going ship parked in Tianjin Wei, if it sails to Luzon, it will definitely show off its might.

Besides, Yin Zhengmao never considered himself an enemy of Ming Dynasty. He was the Uncle Sishui of Daming, Minister of the Ministry of War, and Governor of Lu Song. Said Butang, he, Yin Zhengmao, can have what he is today, all thanks to Daming!

Do not pay taxes to the court, do you want to rebel?
Yin Zhengmao didn't want to rebel, and the Luzon Governor's Mansion also needed the support of the Ming Dynasty, so he was willing to pay taxes.

Coastal defense, anti-smuggling, and tax collection should all have the power of the imperial court. This is Yin Zhengmao's answer.

"What do you think, sir?" Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Juzheng again, and asked Zhang Juzheng's opinion. Zhang Juzheng bowed his head and said, "I am asking for credit for Yin Butang."

Zhu Yijun showed a very happy smile and said: "Okay, Feng Bao, let's declare the decree."

Feng Bao took a step forward, two small yellow doors opened a satin imperial decree, Feng Bao shook the dust again, and said loudly: "Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the edict said:"

"For great things, harmony among people is the first priority; for great achievements, it is especially important to have a favorable location. Just like the battle against Luzon, how can it be said that the outer islands are enough to establish the foundation of the world?"

"It is a wonder that has never been seen in the ages. The mountains and rivers left by the prehistoric people are the world of overseas survivors; there is no such thing as an encounter in a lifetime, and the regrets are returned to the heavens and the earth. Zhou Tian is a perfect person."

"The spirit of Zhong Heyue is for Shengchao Mianzhengshuo; when you live by the sea, you know that there are saints in China."

"Today, I honor my ancestors, heaven and earth, bestow the country's surname, and hope that you will be loyal forever. Only heaven can learn from you!"

"The constitution of the tired dynasty, the blessing of virtue, the imperial edict to the world, and the salty envoys to hear about it."

"Chin this."

As a scholar of literature, Yin Zhengmao certainly understood it. He knelt on the ground, bowed his head and said loudly, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

At first he thought it was an imperial decree for a routine reward, but just as he was about to straighten his waist, the three words "granting the country's surname" flashed in his mind, and he finally understood what the emperor had rewarded!
Doesn't this prove that he is really the exiled clan of the old Zhu family?

He immediately bowed down again, and said in a terrified tone: "I dare not, please Your Majesty take it back!"

Everyone in Yin Zhengmao was stupid. He thought he would give him some silver, silk, wine, etc., but the emperor gave him a big job and gave him the country's surname!
How can he be Yin Zhengmao?To receive such grace?
This thing is really the first time in the Ming Dynasty. It was not uncommon to give the surname to the country in ancient times, but in the Ming Dynasty, there was only one case in the Qianguo Mansion, and in the end it was changed back to the Mu surname. He Yin Zhengmao took this imperial decree, that is Ten thousand mouths can't tell!

Granting the country's surname, but the ancestral ultimatum!
Zhang Juzheng, you are too bold, how dare you do such a thing?

There was a moment of silence in the side hall of the Wenhua Palace, Zhu Yijun sighed heavily, and said in a slightly dispirited tone: "Is Yin Butang also abandoning me?"

"I'm terrified, I don't know what His Majesty said." Yin Zhengmao was a little confused, and the little emperor seemed a little sad.

"Did Yin Butang see the empty Huangji (temple) outside before entering the palace?" Zhu Yijun's tone became a little more tragic, and he said rather helplessly: "They have ordered my house!"

Yin Zhengmao finally understood!
They are all the courtiers left by the late emperor, but some traitors have become so bold as to burn down the imperial palace!If Yin Zhengmao didn't accept it, wouldn't that mean that he, Yin Zhengmao, was also a treacherous minister who did not repay the late emperor's kindness and was not loyal to His Majesty's position?
Yin Zhengmao thought over and over again, then bowed his head and said: "The minister accepts the decree!"

Facing the fire all over the sky, how terrified the little emperor should be, how terrified, how apprehensive, he suddenly heard that a loyal minister of the late emperor had returned to Beijing, hoping to get more support, even the gift of his ancestors to the country The trick of surname has been thought out, the little emperor needs support very much, there is no doubt about it.

Take a look at the faces of these treacherous men, what kind of force did His Majesty get!
Since His Majesty ascended the throne, His Majesty has never owed Yin Zhengmao a penny, and even rewarded him many times, Yin Zhengmao didn't care much about how much infamy he received.

"Yin Butang is exempt." Zhu Yijun smiled.

Zhang Juzheng sighed, you can act the little emperor, bullying Yin Zhengmao doesn't know the specific situation in the court, bullying Yin Zhengmao doesn't know the true face of the emperor.

The little emperor probably expected that someone would take a risk, and even waited for this day.

Zhu Yijun went to Taiye Pool to fish with a slingshot, always very close to the water, he was waiting for someone to push him down, he could swim!In the end, he didn't wait until he fell into the water, but waited until the hall was burned.

In fact, the Ming Dynasty’s change of the country’s surname did not mean removing Yin Zhengmao’s Yin, or making Yin Zhengmao completely abandon his ancestors, but a kind of honor. It is enough to change from Yin Zhengmao’s surname to Zhengmao’s in the memorial.

This is an approach to unite people and further confirm that Luzon is the territory of Ming Dynasty.

"Yin Butang comes with me." Zhu Yijun began to show off, showing off the results of his seven window displays.

The more Yin Zhengmao watched, the more frightened he became. Daming now showed its contradictions. On the one hand, Daming was thriving, and on the other hand, the life of the emperor of Ming Dynasty was threatened substantially. Everything can make Daming better, and everything can make His Majesty more dangerous!
Some squirrel flies are just too damn good!
Zhu Yijun and Yin Zhengmao talked about the changes from crank, circle to reciprocating motion, and completed the visit to the side hall of Wenhua Hall.

Gao Gong was introduced by Feng Bao, Yin Zhengmao was explained by the emperor himself, the holy family is upright, and simplicity is in the emperor's heart.

"What is this?" Yin Zhengmao looked at a very strange model and asked.

Zhu Yijun looked at the model in front of him and said: "The method invented by Qi Shuai is not very intuitive to look at the model. Let's go to the Bingzhan Bureau to have a look. This is a brand new casting method."

A brand-new casting method, patentee: Qi Jiguang.

Qi Jiguang is good at winning battles, and he pays great attention to the casting of ordnance. In order to cast suitable and usable cannons, Qi Jiguang also got a way after serious communication with the craftsmen.

In the Ming Dynasty: those who cast ten blunderbusses and cannons and can get two or three blunderbusses are called masters.

This is talking about the yield rate of Daming's cannons and firecrackers. Even if it is a skilled craftsman, the yield rate is only 20% to 30%. Moreover, once the chamber is blown on the battlefield, the problem will be very serious, and there will be mistakes in defense and offense. If you make a mistake, it is easy for the enemy to catch the opportunity.

How to improve the rate of good products and reduce the explosion of the chamber became Qi Jiguang's thinking. Qi Jiguang has been observing and summarizing his experience, and finally found the problem of the Ming Dynasty's cannon casting method.

There are roughly two types of cannon-casting methods in the Ming Dynasty. The first one is sand molds, that is, the sandmaker adds clay and water to the sand, continuously stirs and tamps it, and finally forms a mold. The sand mold of a large general cannon is as short as one month. , as long as three months, coupled with the horrible scrap rate, the sand mold casting cannon has disadvantages such as a long time and the inability to cast in large quantities. The same is true for the lost wax sand casting cannon method.

The second type is iron mold casting cannons. Iron mold casting cannons have several advantages. The clay mold is turned over to cast iron molds, and then iron molds are used to cast cannons, which is to change the mold from sand molds to cast iron molds, so that there is no need to waste construction time. , can cast a large number of cannons, and the cannon molds can be used repeatedly to reduce the cost of mold making; there is no need to wait for the mold to dry in the shade like clay molds, which greatly improves production efficiency.

This iron mold cast cannon is so good, why do we need to improve the process?

Iron mold casting is not a new technology. It has been widely used as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. There is nothing but advantages and no disadvantages.

The biggest problem with iron mold casting is the blasting of the chamber, so it is necessary to constantly thicken the gun wall to prevent the blasting of the chamber, and then the cannon becomes bigger and heavier, which runs counter to Qi Jiguang’s purpose of using artillery to fight in the field. A gun of seven or eight thousand catties can only be filled with twelve catties of gunpowder. After firing two shots, the barrel was shattered, so what else to shoot?
The biggest problem with iron mold cast guns is that the cooling is rapid from the outside to the inside, and a large amount of hard and brittle white cast iron will appear on the inner wall of the gun bore. If it is brittle, it will break due to the explosion.

The method with a relatively high yield rate commonly used in the Ming Dynasty is: double-layer iron cannons with internal forging and external casting.

The inside is made of wrought iron, and the outside is cast iron. Daming's artillery looks very ordinary, with a large number of trachoma pores on the outside. Sometimes when the artillery is fired, a piece will fall out. It doesn't matter if it looks ugly, as long as it has good performance.

Losing a piece will not prevent the artillery from continuing to fire, and it can be used after repairs, all because of the inner forged wrought iron core.

The gun core is forged from [-]-year-old wrought iron, so the outer gun body is damaged, but the inner gun body is still intact, because the outer pig iron is only used to strengthen the inner wrought iron gun chamber, and the craftsmen who poured the outer layer I can do whatever I want, and if I fall off, I just make up for it.

Therefore, as long as the inner wrought iron core of Daming's artillery is not broken, it can be used forever.

However, Qi Jiguang's methods are different from sand molds, iron molds, internal forging and external casting.

Zhu Yijun came to the Bingzhan Bureau, and the eunuch of the Bingzhan Bureau received the news too late, and His Majesty had already arrived before the cleaning was finished.

"Tianzihao No. 27 General Cannon." Zhu Yijun came to the warehouse and asked someone to pull back the tarpaulin covering it, and said with a smile.

The Tianzihao is made by the emperor, and the emperor personally supervises the work. The No. 27 cannon is not that it has 27 brothers. It is the first new casting method of Ming Dynasty.

There are 257 characters on the cannon body from top to bottom according to the official rank. From the two characters Chizao, the British Duke Zhang Rong, Dingguo Duke Xu Wenbi, Qian'an Bo Qi Jiguang to the names of the craftsmen are all on the cannon.

Standing in front of the cannon, Zhu Yijun looked up at the eight-pound gun and said with a smile: "This cannon is seven feet two inches long, with an inner diameter of three inches and an outer diameter of eight inches. It weighs 24 catties and has a range of about 1800 steps."

"The method of internal forging and external casting is actually very good. It has effectively improved the yield rate, but there is still a huge problem, that is, it cannot be cast in large quantities, and the production capacity is limited. It takes several months to cast a gun core. Production It's inefficient, and at the same time the inner diameter is up to six inches, it can't be any bigger."

"That led to the creation of this cannon."

"Water-cooled casting method in iron mold."

The long-term practice of casting guns has found that the most important and fundamental reason for the high rejection rate of artillery casting is the difference in cooling speed between the inside and outside of the gun barrel. This problem exists in both sand molds and iron molds, so the gun core is a compromise. way.

Moreover, the larger the caliber of the barrel, the thicker the wall of the barrel, and the more obvious the difference in cooling rate between the inside and outside of the barrel. Due to the difference in cooling rate, many barrels with insufficient material and uniformity will lose Due to thermal expansion and contraction, cracks occurred in the gun barrel.

Cracks in the gun barrel are waste products.

And the most important thing is that due to the difference in cooling rate inside and outside the gun barrel, some cracks are invisible on the outside, but inside the metal of the tube wall.

Therefore, all the artillery built at that time had to be tested for the first time.It is to fill the barrel with gunpowder but not shells, release it once, and the one with no cracks in the tube wall is qualified. This is called a test gun, but often the artillery that passes the test will explode or break the barrel when it comes to the battlefield.

The cracks caused by the difference in cooling rate will not be exploded once, but can be done twice or three times.

This is also the reason why ginseng iron can be used as a gift by Uncle Ning Yuan Li Chengliang.

Guangningwei has a cannon named Yaowei General Cannon, a double-layer 47-jin iron cannon, which can use 23 jin of iron bullets and 15 jin of gunpowder. The gun body is 1 times the inner diameter and weighs more than 1 jin. , but a cannon weighs more than [-] kilograms and is inconvenient to transport, so it can only be used as a city defense cannon.

Daming did not have a wide range of ginseng iron, so it is imperative to improve the process.

The answer given by Qi Jiguang and the craftsmen of the Daming Military Bureau is that iron molds can be cast on a large scale. The problem that needs to be solved is that the outer cooling of the casting cannon is too fast and the inner cooling is too slow, resulting in the accumulation of white iron. inside.

The craftsmen chose water cooling, internal mold water cooling technology.

After 27 times of trial production, the development of the water-cooled casting method in the iron mold was finally completed. The rate of internal water cooling is the result of more than 20 times of practice, which greatly speeds up the casting speed of the cannon. , greatly improving the yield rate.

Yin Zhengmao was amazed around the cannon, and soon understood the scope of application of this new technology. He said with a little shortness of breath, "Doesn't this mean that heavy cannons can be made?"

"Yes, Bingzhan Bureau designed a naval gun." Zhu Yijun nodded and said, "It has an inner diameter of three inches and five inches, and the outer diameter gradually changes from the thick tail to the thin head. The length of the gun body is about nine feet five inches. One point, a naval gun with a weight of about 2000 catties has a range of more than [-] paces, can hold solid bullets weighing [-] catties or blooming bullets, and can effectively penetrate a four-inch-thick wooden deck within [-] paces."

"Unfortunately, it hasn't been built yet."

Yin Zhengmao is a naval officer. Of course he cares about naval guns. The current powerful general guns have too many shortcomings. A gun must be at least five thousand catties. This load can effectively increase battery life by replacing it with food and fresh water. The new casting method can effectively reduce the weight and increase the power of the artillery.

The naval gun is still being trial-produced. He returned to the voyage this time, wondering if he could receive this more powerful and lighter artillery.

Following in the footsteps of the emperor, Yin Zhengmao looked at the factory building where the Bingzhan Bureau made cannons, and especially had doubts about the water cooling and the thickness of the cannon wall.

Zhu Yijun explained: "The tail has the greatest explosion power, so it is the thickest. It is also top-light and foot-heavy, and can also maintain the center of gravity, making the artillery more stable. The reason for this design is because of this graph, the curve of the explosion power."

"This is the result of bypassing the degree. The specific measurement method is like this."

Zhu Yijun explained the concept of lower chamber pressure. Drill holes in different parts and fill them with lead. After the cannon explodes, the lead is shot out and penetrates the depth of the wooden board, which is the specific embodiment of the chamber pressure.

The high chamber pressure at the rear makes the gun wall thicker, and the lower chamber pressure at the front makes the gun wall thinner. The purpose of this is to reduce weight without affecting the performance of the artillery, especially the service life.

Yin Zhengmao has been shocked to the point of numbness, His Majesty has really spent a lot of effort in order to Zhenwu.

Yin Zhengmao will stay in the capital for half a month, mainly to participate in court discussions and determine Luzon's prefecturalization plan. Before Yin Zhengmao entered Beijing, Zhang Juzheng had written to Yin Zhengmao and explained it in detail.

Yin Butang returned to Beijing and lived in the Quanchu Guild Hall. He belonged to the Chu Party and Zhang Juzheng's direct descendant, and was Zhang Juzheng's trump card in defeating Gao Gong.

That night, Zhang Juzheng specially opened a bottle of Guojiao and burned sweet potatoes. This is the wine brewed by His Majesty himself. It is a spirit of distilled wine. After filling Yin Zhengmao, Zhang Juzheng said: "Brother Shi Ting, this glass of wine is toast to the hero."

Yin Zhengmao and Zhang Juzheng were 12 years old.

Zhang Juzheng admired Yin Zhengmao very much. Wen Jinshi led the army to fight, and it was a thankless job. If he lost, he would die, but if he won, he would win on the battlefield and lose on the temple. Yin Zhengmao personally led the army to fight, he is a hero.

"Brother Shi Ting, give me back the badge of the Quanchu Guild Hall tomorrow." Zhang Juzheng drank it all in one gulp, and said with a smile: "How can I say that Yin Butang is already the surname of the country, and the rules cannot be broken."

"I sent several letters to Guangzhou before, repeatedly urging the department to restrain itself, but the department refused to listen. Now I can only go to sea and never come back."

Yin Zhengmao gulped down his drink and shook his head, saying: "I can't restrain myself, half of the people who have traveled hundreds of miles, I will be rewarded more and more when I see that I have succeeded in defeating the Japanese. Song, it's just to find a way out for the guest soldiers."

"Da Ming has no place for them, so it's just right to go to Luzon."

"It is true that there was Zhu Wan in the front and Hu Zongxian in the back. I, Ping Haikou, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, may not end well. Sometimes I think that it is better to die in the battlefield than to win in the battlefield. It is better to lose in the court, but people are in In the southeast, I am used to seeing the tragic situation in the world, so I have to do something about it."

Yin Zhengmao could understand Zhang Juzheng's letter of defense, but since he took over the Japanese mission, there was only one way to go, killing all the Japanese pirates who dared to invade, this was his only way.

"Who burned the palace?" Yin Zhengmao asked, frowning.

Zhang Juzheng was silent for a while and said: "Leaded by Zhang Siwei, Wu Dui, and Fang Fengshi, the number of ethnic groups involved in Shanxi alone exceeds 24 people, including Yang Bo's relatives and Wang Chonggu's relatives, and a total of 1728 people were killed."

"So much?" Yin Zhengmao said blankly for a moment, "Yuan Fu is afraid that he will be infamous."

"If you get scolded, just get scolded." Zhang Juzheng shook his head and said, "Some grievances, His Majesty can't bear it. It's not a big deal for a subject to be scolded."

"I don't think so." Yin Zhengmao disagreed with Zhang Juzheng's statement. He said solemnly: "Yuanfu's New Deal, this will be a specific breakthrough. Yuanfu is here, so there is no need to say more. If he is gone, it must be a counterattack. The beginning and the breakthrough."

Yin Zhengmao knew Zhang Juzheng's ambition clearly.

　Ask for a monthly ticket, woohoo! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
