Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Aimee Zhu's words contained a lot of information. After listening, the minister of military aircraft thought about it, and did not speak in a hurry.

Removing Duke Qian from the position of Chief Military Officer in Yunnan is a due act, not to mention that Mu Tianbo is guilty now, even if he is not, for the reform of the Ming army, his post as Chief Military Officer will also be removed.

Otherwise, how to reorganize the Yunnan New Army?
As for the withdrawal of the seal of General Annan and the seal of General Annan, it is obviously to reduce his right to conquer the countries in the southeastern peninsula.Because General Annan was ranked after the conquest of the South, and he focused on appeasement and protection, not conquest.

As for the adjustment of the rights of the Duke of Guizhou to expropriate and attack Yunnan chieftains, it is more interesting.

It seems to retain this right, but it needs the permission of the admiral of Yunnan.When rights become second-hand, they are no longer rights.

At the same time, it also means that Duke Qian will be under the military control of the admiral of Yunnan.

The only thing that can be considered a benefit is that it is allowed to keep a battalion of soldiers.

Because at present, even if the new army of Ming Dynasty is a high-ranking general at the level of admiral, no matter whether it is the title of governor, or the rank of uncle or marquis, there is only one general (thousands) of soldiers, and the soldiers are deployed by the Military Affairs Council. , not his private soldiers.

Qian Guogong can own a battalion of personal soldiers (3000 people), whether it belongs to private soldiers or deployed by the Military Affairs Council, it is quite affordable.

Whether military generals at the Duke level will have a battalion of personal soldiers in the future is unknown to the military ministers, but at present, Duke Qian has become the general with the most personal soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, according to what Zhu Yuxi said, Duke Qian could only lead this battalion of soldiers to fight, which is actually equivalent to a general.

The third item that Aimee Zhu said is to investigate the Mu family's property and punish those who commit crimes in the Mu family, which is also the right thing to do.

Daming's land tax reform and the new business tax policy are about to be rolled out across the country, and Yunnan is unlikely to be an exception.All the fields occupied by Duke Wei were tracked down and confiscated, and it is impossible for Duke Qian to have special treatment in this regard.

Punishment of those who commit crimes in the Mu family is necessary to maintain the authority of the Ming law.

After some thought, Ye Tinggui, the assistant director of the Military Affairs Council, spoke first, saying: "I agree with your Majesty's three points. With this arrangement, it will not appear that the imperial court is mean to Duke Qian, and it can also make Yunnan peaceful and peaceful, and work together with other provinces. Stepping into the rhythm of major reform and development."

Yuan Jixian asked with doubts: "Your Majesty, are the soldiers of Duke Qian's battalion dispatched by the court, or are they recruited by himself? Nowadays, the number of generals' personal soldiers is no more than one. Is it too much for Duke Qian to have one battalion?"

Aunt Zhu smiled faintly, and said, "Grand Qian's personal soldiers will naturally be deployed by the Military Affairs Council. As for whether there are too many of them—since he is the Duke who is leading the army, his personal military deployment should be different from other generals."

These words made all the ministers of military aircraft show strange expressions.

Because Auntie Zhu's meaning is very clear, if other military generals are promoted to Duke in the future, the Military Affairs Council will also deploy a battalion of personal soldiers.

Yuan Jixian did not raise any other objections, and the rest of the people also agreed with the three arrangements for Qian Guogong, so the matter was settled like this.

In the next two days, the relevant decrees and decrees of Duke Qian were signed and issued by Aimee Zhu, the Military Affairs Council or the cabinet.

As for the specific implementation, it will not be completed in a short time.

Because these official edicts are only sent to Yunnan, it will take a month-this is because the Ming Dynasty is peaceful, the banditry is basically calm, and the roads are gradually being repaired. If it is at the end of the dynasty, it will take more than three months. Any time is possible.

On May [-]th, Zhu Wei held another military meeting, but it was to discuss the promotion of the New Deal.

"Nearly three years have passed since the first trial implementation of new policies in Yingtianfu in June of the first year of Zhaowu, such as 'separation of local government, law, taxation and military powers' and 'officials can be promoted'.

It is obvious to all that the trial implementation of the New Deal in Ming Dynasty in terms of official administration, commercial taxation, judiciary, land taxation, and education has achieved good results.

Under the New Deal, the administration of officials was clear, various taxes were greatly increased, the living standards of the people were significantly improved, and the national strength also increased significantly.

By September of the first year of Zhaowu, the New Deal was successively implemented in other prefectures in Nanzhili, Chongqing, and Sichuan.

After the Northern Expedition ended, the Zhaowu Second Year New Deal was implemented in the provinces north of the Yangtze River, which greatly accelerated the recovery of people's livelihood and economy in the provinces north of the Yangtze River after the war. Up to now, the northern provinces have shown signs of prosperity.

Therefore, I decided to spread the New Deal to the eight provinces of Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan, Guizhou, and Yunnan in June this year.What do you think? "

At the beginning, when Auntie Zhu tried out the new policy in Yingtian Mansion, Yuan Jixian suggested that it should be tried in Yingtian Mansion for three months first, and if there were no major problems, it would be extended to the whole of Nanzhili and Chongqing.

Then observe the effect for one to three years before deciding on the scope of further promotion.

However, because the provinces north of the Yangtze River were severely damaged by natural disasters and wars, the old classes, vested interest groups, stubborn forces and other obstacles to the New Deal were almost completely smashed, comparable to a blank sheet of paper.

Therefore, in the spring of the second year of Zhaowu, Zhu Yuxi made a decisive decree to promote the New Deal to the northern provinces.

As for the three provinces of Liaoxi, Liaodong, and Nanhai recovered in the third year of Zhaowu, they were naturally governed directly in accordance with the New Deal model.

Therefore, among the 24 provinces actually owned by Ming Dynasty, only Zhejiang and other eight southern provinces have not yet implemented the New Deal.

In fact, it is not at all implemented—for example, the municipal shipping departments in Zhejiang, Fujian, and Guangdong provinces have long been taken back by the imperial court and changed to customs, governed by new politics.

The commercial tax of the eight provinces is also collected in accordance with the New Deal because it depends on whether there is transportation with other provinces.

It can be said that although these eight provinces have not implemented the New Deal, they have already been deeply affected by the New Deal.From Aimee Zhu's point of view, the implementation of the New Deal in these eight provinces is almost a matter of course.

However, after she finished speaking, the Chief Assistant Yuan Jixian still stood up and raised objections.

"Your Majesty, although the three-year period has come, the effect of the New Deal is very good. But this year, there will probably be a war between the Ming Dynasty and the Oirat and Heshuot Khanates. At this time, should the eight provinces in the south of the Yangtze River focus on stability?
After all, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, and Guangdong are all important financial and taxation areas for our Ming Dynasty. Fujian also shoulders the important task of helping immigrants from the South China Sea to open up wasteland, and Hunan is an important granary for our Ming Dynasty.

If the New Deal is implemented at this time, causing local turmoil, it will be detrimental to the country and the people! "

Auntie Zhu knew that Yuan Jixian's words made sense, and she was thinking of Daming, so she was not angry.

But there was a murderous look in her faint smile, and she said: "I just want to let some people think that there is an opportunity to jump out when my Ming Dynasty is fighting with foreign enemies.

If they don't jump out, how can the New Deal be implemented more smoothly?Who will enrich the bitter and evil frontiers of Liaoxi, Liaodong, Gansu, and the South China Sea? "

Among the ministers of military affairs, except for Li Yan and a few others who knew Aimi Zhu's intentions, the rest of them couldn't help their eyelids twitching when they heard this, and thought to themselves: So your majesty wants to invite you into the urn.

Even Yuan Jixian, after hearing Zhu Yuxi's words, was only slightly stunned and did not refute.

I just sighed secretly in my heart: I hope those people can see the situation clearly and don't ask for trouble.

After that, a group of ministers of military and aircraft discussed the specific links of the comprehensive promotion of the New Deal to the eight southern provinces, as well as some areas that are prone to problems.

This kind of discussion is conducive to the implementation of the New Deal, rather than hindering the implementation of the New Deal.

Coupled with the internal meetings held by relevant departments, three days later, on May [-]th, the imperial court issued a series of related edicts and decrees.

The five provinces of Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Fujian, Hunan, and Guangdong all have water access to Nanjing, so they were the first to receive the news.

However, the reactions of the gentry in these places were not as intense as Aimee Zhu imagined.

Not to mention actions, even in terms of words, the feedback from Jin Yiwei Nanzhen Fusi and the local government seems to be quite different from what Aimee Zhu expected.

Even the reactions of some gentry and landlords were beyond her expectation...
Zhejiang, Hangzhou City.

At this time, Hangzhou was a real coastal city, and it was one of the important foreign trade cities of the Ming Dynasty. The former Hangzhou Shipping Department and the current Hangzhou Customs rank first among the customs of the Ming Dynasty.

Second more.

Good night~
