Da Ming Tai Shi

504 Calm
In the anticipation of people from all walks of life in Guangzhou, Chen Yunfu's Yiren finally entered Guangzhou at the end of April.

Just a month ago, the 20 troops from the four southwestern provinces had just left Luchuan and entered Annan.

The Southwest Campaign has officially begun.

In another Ming Dynasty in a parallel time and space, a war also broke out in the Southwest this year. Emperor Yongle Zhu Laosi sent Zhang Fu to lead an army of [-] to conquer Annan Kingdom, but Zhang Fu failed to win this battle.

It's not that they lost, but because of logistical support and water and soil reasons, they had to end hastily.

That is the Ming Dynasty in another time and space, definitely not the current Ming Dynasty.

In this Annan campaign, Chen Jikuo's Chen Yue Dynasty faced not only 20 wolves-like athletes of the Ming Dynasty, but also a large group of wolves of capital who were waiting to make a fortune from the war!

These people may not be able to fight a full infantry battalion when they are tied together, but their strength is definitely several times more terrifying than this 20 army.

The six arsenals in the four southwestern provinces were almost fully wound up. Bows, arrows, crossbow machines, muskets and cannons were continuously produced from the arsenals as if they were free of money, and then they were loaded into vehicles and sent to the front lines.

At the same time, a logistics team composed of 30-year-old powerful peasants and slaves followed the army all the way. Wherever the army went, a wide official road was built, and then the carriage tracks that symbolized absolute dominance were paved.

And the Xiongguan Pass, which the Chen Yue Dynasty relied on as a barrier, was destined not to be rebuilt after it was blown into ruins by the artillery of the Ming Dynasty.

In a word, wherever you go, you will be the land of Daming.

There is no possibility of peace talks to withdraw troops.

Central officials once had such a worry.

That is, after it is defeated, governance is a big problem.

But this worry is no longer a problem with the intervention of capital.

Because catching slaves is simply too busy.

What a waste of time teaching.

Those who can't speak Chinese and don't admire the culture of the Central Plains will be taken away as slaves.

They are needed for the tens of thousands of miles of railway track projects in Daming.

This is the natural aggressiveness of capital.

In a country where capital accounts for an increasing proportion, once its war machine is activated, both short-term mobilization capabilities and long-term war potential are huge.

why?
Because there is a lot of money and resources.

The Ming army, which has become more and more comfortable with the coordinated tactics of infantry and artillery, can completely destroy all obstacles in front of it with artillery.

It can be called a dimensionality reduction blow.

It's a bit far-fetched, war is no longer an area that Chen Yunfu pays attention to now, because he can't imagine that at this point in time, there is any other country that is qualified to make his Daming suffer defeat.

Sufficient soldiers, abundant logistics, and terrifying war potential.

Looking at it slowly, it was only 20 troops. Three to five hundred years ago, with just this 500 troops, Chen Yunfu had enough confidence to single out the entire Northern Song Dynasty plus Khitan.

The smoke of war cannot blow into the border of Ming Dynasty.

Just like the city of Guangzhou at the moment.

"The ministers and others see the great king Sheng Gong Jin'an."

Countless people crowded together, bowing and singing in unison.

Wherever Chen Yunfu looked, there were subjects.

Finally, Chen Yunfu's eyes fell on Chen Jinghe.

"It's all free."

"Thank you king."

After the officials and the people thanked them, Chen Yunfu didn't get out of the car to meet the officials at close range to salute the corporal, and turned back after calling Wu Shigao's name.

"Let's talk about it when we enter the city."

Wu Shigao boarded the car in fear, and carefully lowered half of his buttocks, his whole state was like a child who made a mistake, at a loss what to do.

"Everyone knows about the Guangdong matter, how did it turn out like this?"

Although Chen Yunfu asked in a calm tone, Wu Shigao was still sweating in an instant.

"If you go back to the king, it's all because of your negligence, and you deserve death."

"There is no need to say such things."

Chen Yunfu raised his hand to stop Wu Shigao's confession, and said: "Now Gu has wiped your butt clean, this time it's been exposed, and next time, Gu won't be so easy to talk about."

"Yes, yes, sir, I would like to thank the great king for his great grace."

Wu Shigao immediately knelt down on the ground as if relieved of a heavy burden, kowtowing continuously.

You see, although the kneeling ceremony has been clearly abolished for many years, why do these high-ranking officials always kneel when facing Chen Yunfu?

Because the invisible 'braid' is in my heart.

Chen Yunfu can't just kneel down because of the 'voluntary' of these officials, and punish them.

Doing so will, on the contrary, make officials across the country kneel more simply in the future.

"Get up, kneel down can't solve the problem, think about it carefully, how should you be the chief envoy in the future."

Chen Yunfu raised his hand: "Who is the prefect of Guangzhou?"

"Fang Jian."

"Such a big mess happened in Guangzhou, right under his nose, he is really incompetent." Chen Yunfu said in an understatement tone that made Wu Shigao feel cold all over his body.

"Let him kill himself."

This is, let Fang Jian take the blame!
Wu Shigao understood instantly in his heart that this time the imperial court or Chen Yunfu himself, for the sake of the national railway track construction project not to stop and to continue the great cause of conquering the Southwest, made a compromise with the businessman, but this anger was really suffocated in his heart.

You have to find someone unlucky to let this breath out.

As for this unlucky guy, his rank can't be too low, and he can't be Wu Shigao. Looking at the borders of Guangdong, no one is more suitable than Fang Jian.

From the second product, the prefect of Guangzhou!

Mu Shiqun standing in the carriage glanced at Wu Shigao, nodded and turned to leave.

It can be predicted that when Chen Yunfu gets out of the car again, he is doomed not to see the prefect of Guangzhou.

"I'm alone in Nanjing. I heard that you have a guy named Jiang Zhengxun who does a good job."

"Let him pick up the prefect of Guangzhou."

Jiang Zhengxun?
Wu Shigao was so startled that his eyeballs almost fell to the ground. I didn't hear that Jiang Zhengxun had any serious background.

After all, in Guangdong, Jiang Zhengxun's background is easy to figure out. If he really had a big background, he wouldn't have hesitated for so many years at the fourth and fifth ranks.

When did this kid enter the Sacred Heart without making a fuss?

Although surprised, Wu Shigao expressed his opinion quickly.

"Yes, I will definitely work together with Jiang Zhifu in the future to prevent any further troubles in Guangdong."

"Ah."

The car fell silent, and in the following time, Chen Yunfu didn't say anything to Wu Shigao, just thinking about the endgame of Go on the table alone, while the latter cleverly started to work as a secretary, standing on the sidelines for Chen Yunfu. Serve tea and pour water.

The chariot slowly drove up to the chief envoy's yamen, and Mu Shiqun's report woke Chen Yunfu from his contemplation.

After drinking all the tea in the cup, Chen Yunfu got up and walked out, and said hard work when passing by Wu Shigao.

This made the bones of the latter almost shatter, and he followed closely behind, saying "should" over and over again.

Going down the stairs, Chen Yunfu strode towards the inside of the yamen, and when he passed by Chen Jinghe, he paused and took a look.

And in the eyes of Wu Shigao behind Chen Yunfu.

Standing beside Chen Jinghe was Jiang Zhengxun.

"This holy family is too grand."

At this moment, Jiang Zhengxun didn't know that he had turned into the new Guangzhou prefect at this moment, he was still wondering.

Where did Fang Jian, the prefect of Guangzhou, go?
And Chen Jinghe moved his lips, and finally lowered his head again.

The storm has passed, and everything in Guangdong has returned to calm.
