Chapter 420 Reforming the Land
The castle of the Nanyang Military Mansion was three stories high, and there were a hundred civil servants and Wu Bian who worked in the castle on weekdays.

On Gao Gong's first day in the Nanyang Military Mansion, he went from the second floor to the first floor, and then from the first floor to the third floor, and scolded everyone. In one word, the entire Nanyang Military Mansion is a mediocre idiot!
After scolding, the evil spirit that came from nowhere in his heart spilled out, the old man got into the house and drove everyone away, bored for two days.

When he came out two days later, he threw two newly-made Nanyang wealth and goods accounts into Zhao Shizhen's arms, and asked him to tell the bookkeeping clerk, and they would be recorded according to this in the future.

The accounting method is not special. The Nanyang Military Mansion itself uses Chen Mu's accounting method, which is simple and clear.Gao Gong almost copied the format, which listed all the monthly expenditures in the account in detail. The only difference is that he gave two accounts.

Gold, silver, copper and iron, sulfur and nitrate, fleet expenses, daily entry and exit, and some caravan income, in the first book, are the official accounts of the Nanyang Army.

After a year in the official account, Mr. Gao forcibly made him eat as much as he could, and he didn't have any money left.

There is another one, where Chen Mu records all other expenses, and there is basically no balance left, but this is called a business account.

It was only at this time that Zhao Shizhen realized why Gao Gong scolded their entire yamen two days ago. In fact, he scolded Chen Mu for being a fool.

Well now, the distinction between the military government and the civilian population is very clear.

Near the end of the year, Manila is still hot, and this place has become the most prosperous harbor in East Asia outside of the Ming Dynasty. Both Ming ships and merchants from Southeast Asian countries are distributed here.

With the prosperity of the port, the sense of accomplishment in Chen Mu's heart also made him very gratified.

More and more people from the coastal areas of Fujian, Guangdong and Guangxi came here to live here. When the war just ended, there were no more than a hundred Ming people who settled here, but now there are thousands of them. You can see the faces of Han people everywhere. The law gave the right to possess a blunderbuss armor to protect property.

The law allows them to form associations, and at the same time organize township valor groups, and all clans together recommend the best talents to lead them. During wartime, they are ordered by the Nanyang Army and the commanders of each guard, and they lead troops to practice and protect the village in peacetime.

When the militia formed an army, Chen Mu kept instilling a sense in his lectures: the Han people are not safe overseas, and they must use their own force to protect themselves and unite to open up overseas.

It is not enough for the clan leader to only have experienced experience and insight, and he has to send outstanding heirs of the clan to study in the Navy Lecture Hall before he can lead the militia overseas.

Gao Gong watched all of this quietly, until Chen Mu gave them the opportunity to study in the Navy Lecture Hall, and finally said: "This is not right, the Lecture Hall is a place for Daming generals to learn, so what is the latest?" You let them form militias for future wars, but they have lived overseas for a long time, and three generations may be no problem, if future generations rebel, what should we do?"

Elder Gao Ge has a very clear understanding of the martial arts hall, and because of his clarity, he is more worried.

Before Chen Mu could answer, Gao Gong said, "You should send a letter to tell Lu Tong and Xu Jie to go to the Imperial College."

Needless to say, Gao Gong himself was deposed this time, and suddenly he understood Xu Jie a little better, and all the old and new grudges in the past were wiped out.

Gao Gong is absolutely unwilling to admit that he saved his life this time because of Zhang Juzheng's help. He is more willing to treat it as retaliation. Back then, he didn't insist on letting Xu Jie idle, and finally agreed to let Xu Jie be the army lecturer Long, so this time, he was able to turn the corner and reach Nanyang alive.

"Guozijian?"

Chen Mucai doesn't care if the Nanyang immigrants will rebel after three generations, and even if there are people among them who have superhuman strength and the talent to divide the country, he doesn't mind pointing out the way and helping them.

Not to mention 30 or 50 years, even if it is limited to ten years after Zhang Juzheng's death, the wealth and resources obtained by Ming Dynasty ruling the larger Chinese circle in these ten years are sufficient if they are properly dispatched to eliminate internal crises.

The worst result is to return to the state before Chen Mu came to this world.

Even if you only get a catty of iron from Nanyang, you will earn a catty.

It is impossible for Nanyang to counterattack Daming. Except for Zhonghua, no one in this world has the ability to govern China. This is not to underestimate people, but because others do not have such experience.In the entire planet, there are only a handful of countries that have governed a vast territory, and among these countries, only Ming Dynasty has a bureaucratic system ranging from imperial examinations to governing the people.

Even if the royal family is changed, no matter who it is, as long as they want to rule this land, they must use Han people; if they use Han people, the Han people will have a chance to overthrow it.

A huge country not only means power, but also a burden. Others can't handle it. Even if it is a Han regime, if it is not governed well, princes and generals will be kind to each other, let alone others.

"Guozijian." Gao Gong nodded, and said to Chen Mu: "If the successors of the chieftains follow the precedents, enter the Guozijian to study, learn etiquette, justice, patriarchal law, loyalty, benevolence, benevolence and filial piety, and then take over the post... If you can change the land and return to the people, you don't have to do so. To reform the land and return it to the people is to fight.”

"Sir, this is just right. I will send a letter to General Lu and Xu Shanchang later." Chen Mu nodded. This is also the purpose of letting these militia leaders study. Leading the army, at least let them know who they are. "When it comes to reforming the land and returning to the bloc, the younger generation has some ideas."

Gao Gong was worried about An Guoheng's affairs. Chieftains from all over the country hold local power in their hands, like a country within a country.

At this time, Chen Mu heard that he had an idea about reforming the land and returning to the bloc, and immediately asked: "What idea, but it doesn't matter."

"It is not necessary to fight to change the land and return to the country. The elder Ge has counted how much land Daming has overseas? As far as the land that has been proven, has garrisons but no king, there are no less than three provinces." Two-handed: "Seal them out."

Gao Gong shook his head resolutely, and said: "Not to mention whether it can be sealed, how to seal it is a big problem."

"Mr. Gao Ge, Mr. Chen needs soldiers, and the Nanyang Army needs soldiers. Armorica in the east has not yet been discovered, and a large army will be dispatched if it is found; the west will support Champa, and once there is a war there, soldiers will also be used, and they are still fine. For the southwestern soldiers fighting in the mountains, Chen can at most recruit tens of thousands of troops from Guangdong and Guangxi."

Chen Mu shook his head and said, "If you recruit troops from Guangdong and Guangxi, it will be a disaster for the country and the people. Next year I am planning to discuss with the imperial court to send the chieftain soldiers to the south, and it will be easy to reward for military exploits. Xinming is full of land, and soldiers who fight bravely will be given [-] mu What’s wrong with the fields? Their propaganda and consolation made the recruiting meritorious, so what’s wrong with governing tens of thousands of mu of land in the past?”

"What's more, the imperial family has accumulated evils for a long time. When they go to Xinming, the prince stays in the country, and the county king takes the general of Zhenguo, the general of Fuguo, and the lieutenant below to Xinming and other islands. How about guarding the land for generations...?"

In the middle of speaking, he ran upstairs in a hurry and shouted the newspaper from a distance. Chen Mu went out and walked through the long corridor to receive the letter. Arched: "The younger generation said that there are not enough soldiers, Lin Feng's letter, he sent to the wrong country."

　Good morning!
