Daming: I, the emperor who trains the carpenter

Chapter 890 Rebellion?Not to liberate Daming!
Ming dynasty,

Wenyuan Pavilion in the capital.

One of the centers of Ming Dynasty, where the cabinet is located, is now eerily quiet.

In the past, the cabinet was full of people coming and going at any time. Various documents from the six departments, documents from various provincial governments, and border military newspapers were sent to the cabinet one after another, making this place lively and orderly.

However, in the current cabinet, Wen Tiren, Shi Fenglai, and Yang Sichang are sitting under the plaque of loyalty to the public and the country in the cabinet, silent and speechless.

After a long time, Shi Fenglai finally said: "Your Majesty, you have issued three imperial edicts against yourself."

Wen Tiren sighed, and looked a little ashamed: "This is our crime. If we can solve the current predicament of Daming. Sigh."

Yang Sichang interrupted the conversation between the two: "Don't talk about these useless things, now that His Majesty's crime has been issued, if we can't reverse the current situation, if we can't deal with Liaodong, then we will end gone."

Shi Fenglai glanced at Yang Sichang: "To put it bluntly, everyone knows that the imperial court's confidant is the Datong Party in Liaodong, but the Datong Party is easy to deal with? Not to mention, everyone in the court shouts and kills the Datong Party, but How many people have contacts with the Datong Party in private?"

"Can these people be dug out? Do you dare to dig them out? More than 80.00% of the officials in the entire capital, once they are dug out, will the court still exist?"

Wen Tiren rubbed the space between his brows with some headaches, he knew these things well.

When did Ming Dynasty turn from prosperity to decline?

To be precise, it is from the second half of the first year of Chongzhen.

There are fewer and fewer officials from the new party in the court, and more and more people from the old party and the Donglin party. The court's control over the local area has weakened, and the local gentry has once again grown barbarously. In addition, Chongzhen completely rejected the new policies and laws. Let those old systems reappear, and the entire Ming Dynasty's operating system has become bloated and dull again, full of blood-sucking corrupt officials everywhere.

It is very difficult to make the administration of officials clear. It took Zhu Youxiao and Zhang Haogu seven or eight years to reverse it bit by bit. This requires not only severe punishments and strict laws, but also the training and teaching of talents, and continuous propaganda and supervision. , the people need to restore confidence in the imperial court, the law needs to be reshaped, and an efficient and reliable operating mechanism is needed
In short, it is not easy to govern the government at all. This kind of situation usually only happens at the beginning of the founding of the new dynasty. Those veterans who conquered the world are still there. come over.

From the second generation onwards, various problems will inevitably appear.

When the Ming Dynasty came to the Tianqi Dynasty, the administration of officials had become a big problem, not only the administration of officials, but also merchants, frontier troops, guards, local government offices, and even various aspects.

Zhang Haogu led the members of the New Party to carry out drastic reforms with the awareness of daring to die, to clean up the carrion abscess on the Ming dynasty.

Until the 13th year of the Apocalypse, there were still many provinces in the south of the Ming Dynasty that had only superficially completed the New Deal reforms, and there were still countless vested interests in various parts of the Ming Dynasty who were still eager to move.

After all, Zhang Juzheng's whip method has only been implemented for a few years?
Those people could afford to wait, and they did. They waited for Chongzhen.

Building a healthy system is hard, but breaking it is easy.

Chongzhen abolished the New Laws and New Deals in a brutal way. He thought he could establish a new order, but he was wrong. The New Deals and New Laws were gone, and the original order of Ming Dynasty did not exist. He was not Zhu Youxiao, the emperor of Tianqi. The ambition and greed of those with vested interests were aroused, so Daming came to where he is today.

In today's Ming Dynasty, who among the high officials in the court does not do business with Liaodong?
Even those Donglin Party members who speak righteously, no matter how much they talk about Datong thieves and traitors during the day, they still have to check the profits of doing business with Datong Party members at night.

That's why Shi Fenglai said that some things cannot be dug out.

This matter cannot be mentioned, nor can it be said.

The three fell into silence again. After a long time, Wen Tiren said: "First find a way to collect the money, and when the troops from all provinces enter Beijing, we will have a way to deal with Liaodong."

"That's the only way to go." Yang Sichang said.

Nowadays, regardless of whether the Datong party occupies a bitter cold place like Liaodong or Northwest, the strength of the Datong party cannot be underestimated. The Datong party is capable and determined. They have been dormant in Liaodong for so many years. is the scariest.

Now the Datong Party members are making frequent moves, which fills Yang Sichang with worry. He doesn't know what the Datong Party members are going to do, but he has a hunch that the uncertain days of the Ming Dynasty may become more and more difficult to endure in the future.

The society of Ming Dynasty is bleak and windy, which can be seen by anyone with a heart. Emperor Chongzhen was addicted to food, but he had ambition but no ability. However, the ruling and opposition areas were full of members of the old party and Donglin party. It is better to expect them to govern the world well. Pray they are not greedy.

While people in Zhili were panicking, Liaodong was a different scene.

At this time in Liaodong, the people in Shenyang City are still immersed in the festive aftertaste after the Lantern Festival. Compared with the displacement of the people in the Central Plains, the people in Liaodong are undoubtedly very happy. They can live and work in peace and contentment. Surplus food, surplus money on hand, children can read and write, adults also have jobs that can earn money.

Undoubtedly, Liaodong now has a bit of harmony in the world.

Shenyang used to be the Imperial City of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and now it is the center of the Datong Society. People have entered here continuously. Everyone has a happy face, obviously something good is about to happen.

The sound of the horse's hooves was getting closer and closer, and with a long hiss, several people got off their horses and entered inside talking and laughing.

"Have you heard that President Shi of the Northwest has captured Shanxi, and the soldiers are approaching Zhili?"

"Yes, yes, President Shi arrived a few days ago. I heard that there is a big event this time."

"Well, I heard that Boss Huang from Southwest is also here, and Boss Zhao from Dongyang is also here."

"With so many great generals coming back, is it possible that Shoufu has to make up his mind?"

"It's very possible. Now my Datong has a strong army and horses, and the corrupt and fatuous Ming court is still squeezing the people. Now the world is in turmoil. Who else can rule the world except me, Datong?"

Several people talked and walked further and further away.

At this time in Qinzheng Hall, Zhang Haogu also smiled and chatted with several people one by one.

Shi Kefa, Huang Degong, Zhao Yuqi, and Zhou Yuji rushed back to Liaodong one after another. The return of these important figures in charge of one's military and political affairs to Shenyang undoubtedly shows the importance of this meeting.

This is the sixth year since the founding of Datong Society, and it is also the sixth year that Datong Party members have established the core concept of "retreating to Liaodong and immersing in development".

Now that bigwigs from all over the world have returned to Shenyang, and important military generals and local cadres have come to Shenyang, it undoubtedly means that a new collective meeting of the Datong Society is about to be held.

Before that, Zhang Haogu needs to understand the actual situation in various places.

"Shoufu, the current situation in Nanyang is not very good." Huang Degong held a cup of tea, looking a little tired, but his eyes were sparkling.

Zhang Haogu nodded: "I know a little about the situation in Nanyang. Now those Westerners are starting to make trouble again."

Huang Degong said: "Not only that, the situation in the imperial court is currently in turmoil, and local uprisings are frequent, and the decline of the imperial court has undoubtedly been revealed. Those chieftains and small countries that were surrendered because of the strength of the imperial court before are now ready to move."

"Not to mention anything else, just to pay attention to the north and the south, many people jumped out and said that they want to restore the country, and want to reproduce the Great Nanyue Kingdom."

Zhang Haogu snorted: "Fuguo, Great Nanyue Kingdom, those people are just thinking about it!"

"What's going on with Batavia?"

Huang Degong said: "Governor Qian is a smart man. He kept in touch with me a few years ago. The town stationed in Batavia is now under my control. If it weren't for the steel factory in Batavia, would I want to maintain four It is not easy to repair ordnance in a town."

Zhang Haogu nodded: "Qian Zhiwen is capable and has a certain pattern. He has been trained in Nanyang these years. He is a rare person who can see the world with his eyes open. This person can be won, and he must be won. of."

Huang Degong said: "Well, I have also contacted Governor Qian several times, and he also wants to talk to you, Chief Assistant."

Zhang Haogu smiled: "If someone wants to come, then I must welcome him. Tell Qian Zhiwen, talk about Datong Society, talk about me, Zhang Baorui, and welcome him to Shenyang."

Huang Degong also said with a smile: "That would be great. Governor Qian will fly over if he knows the news."

Zhang Haogu smiled again, and then said seriously: "Your mission is very important. Nanyang is a place that is related to China's national destiny for the next 300 years. It is the hub of exchanges between the East and the West, and it is also the hub of the Maritime Silk Road. . Batavia is the focus of Nanyang today, and it must gain a foothold here.”

"If Batavia is a point, then Jiaozhi is China's tentacles in Nanyang. Only when the points and tentacles are there can Nanyang be stable."

"Nowadays the Central Plains is full of flames of war, thousands of miles away in Nanyang is also raging. Westerners, small countries in Nanyang, and countries such as Dacheng, Nanzhao, and Toungoo must pay attention and be cautious."

Huang Degong's expression also became serious: "Shoufu, don't worry, I'm paying for blessings, and Nanyang can't be lost."

Zhang Haogu pondered and said again: "Originally, I planned to send you someone to help you deal with the exchange with Nanyang countries. After all, our focus for a long time in the future will be in the Central Plains. But now that Qian Zhiwen has the intention to join us, then I can ask Qian Zhiwen to assist you at that time, and I can rest assured that you are in Nanyang."

Huang Degong nodded: "Well, Governor Qian is capable. Over the years, the court's power in Nanyang has become weaker and weaker. Governor Qian can travel among the Nanyang countries and Western forces to maintain the stability of Batavia. It is really admirable to be able to protect the interests of Nanyang, with him, I can deal with those people with confidence."

Not long after talking with Huang Degong, Zhang Haogu invited Zhao Yuqi again: "General Zhao, I haven't seen you in the past few years, you still have the same demeanor."

Zhao Yuqi laughed: "Yuanfu, you are the one with the same style. I have been in Dongyang for the past few years, but I miss my hometown very much."

"Not only do you miss your hometown, but the soldiers also miss your hometown?" Zhang Haogu asked.

Zhao Yuqi nodded: "Well, the soldiers are very concerned about their hometown after hearing the merchants talk about the drastic changes in the Central Plains."

Zhang Haogu nodded slightly: "It's human nature."

"Speaking of which, letting you take the soldiers to sit in Dongyang is a grievance to these elites and you. Right now, our attention must be concentrated on the Central Plains. I plan to transfer you and the soldiers return."

Zhao Yuqi's eyes lit up: "Yuanfu, but I want to."

Zhang Haogu nodded: "Well, Dongying is no more important than Nanyang. Nanyang is far more important to us than Dongying. What's more, Nanyang borders on the southwest of the imperial court. Huang always wants to be in charge. But Dongying has been interrupted now. If the spine is damaged, it will not be a threat for a while."

"After you return to Dongpu, arrange the follow-up matters. The governance of Dongpu should be handed over to the shogunate and the daimyo, and let them handle it."

Zhao Yuqi asked, "How many [-] to [-] shogunate troops have been trained by Dongying?"

"Leave it to the shogunate. As long as they are not stupid, they will rely on us and rely on those shogunate troops to entangle with the daimyo. Otherwise, no matter which daimyo Shangluo, they will not end well." Zhang Haogu said very straightforwardly, the shogunate now The controllers are all pro-Datong, or they are supported by Datong.

As long as they have a little brain, they will not have other ideas. Datong exists and Datong is strong, so they can continue to be in power safely, instead of the whole family being sent away one day.

Then Zhang Haogu met Zhou Yuji and Shi Kefa again.

Zhou Yuji described the situation in Shandong: "Shoufu, half of the soldiers of the four towns in Shandong are recruits and surrendered guards. World War I. Moreover, there are [-] reserve militiamen in Shandong, who are currently maintaining local law and order to suppress those lawless gentry, but they can go into battle at any time."

"It's just that we are in a strategic stalemate with Zhu Chunchen now, and Zhu Chunchen has some means."

Zhang Haogu nodded, looked at the map, and said, "Shandong, don't be impatient, and put development first."

"Now we are no different than before. Every time we win a place and liberate the people of a place, we have to take root in a place, develop a place, and put the brand of Datong here. Shandong is not like Ganshan. Ganshan is originally difficult, but Shandong is. A wealthy place along the coast, an important town of money and grain, and a large industrial province, it is the old foundation of our Datong Society."

"Currently developing well, isn't Shandong the vanguard of our Datong Society's advance into the southern country?"

Shi Kefa also reported the situation in the Northwest to Zhang Haogu: "Currently Gansu, Shaanxi, and Shanxi are under the control of our Datong Society, but the three provinces have also reached the limit of our army. Our army was originally expanded with three towns. , although there are eight towns now, it will take some time to completely digest the three provinces, especially Shanxi, where it needs to be cleaned up."

"If we march to Henan or Zhili again, we will be powerless."

Regarding the situation in the Northwest, Zhang Haogu knew very well that having three provinces was already very good. After all, Shi Kefa only had so many people and so many things in his hands.

"Well, we're not rogues. We can't leave it alone after the fight. The Northwest has a considerable scale now. The priority is stability. The soldiers need to train more. The enemy in the Northwest is not the Central Plains." Zhang Haogu said slowly.

Shi Kefa understood what Zhang Haogu meant. The three sides of Gansu and Shanxi originally dealt with the grasslands and the enemies of the Western Regions, and those people were the biggest threat to the Northwest.

After communicating with several generals in succession, Zhang Haogu communicated with the chiefs of various ministries such as Zhang Ruitu, Lu Xiangsheng, Zhou Jinyong, Huang Liqing, and generals such as Cao Wenzhao and Fang Yunchu.

After communicating with the core executives of these Datong Society separately, Zhang Haogu held a core meeting of the Datong Society in the Hall of Qinzheng.

The chiefs of the twelve departments of Datong and the generals of the military all attended the meeting.

At the meeting, Zhang Haogu formally proposed for the first time the idea of ​​punishing the people and innovating the world: "Before we developed in Liaodong and strengthened our strength. It was to build high walls and accumulate food widely."

"Now that we are stronger and stronger, we can say that the army is strong and horses are strong, and it is time to officially cleanse the world. Datong enters the Central Plains, and the time has come."

Regarding Zhang Haogu's idea of ​​formally breaking with the Ming court and competing in the Central Plains, no matter whether it was the chief of the twelve divisions of Datong or the generals of the military, no one raised any objections. Everyone looked at Zhang Haogu excitedly. Good old, finally, they finally waited until this day.

The unification of the core high-level opinions is just the beginning. The heads of ministries, the governors of the provinces, and the generals of the military have also begun to inform the personnel of all parties, so that everyone has a psychological and ideological preparation for the upcoming second Datong Society. Set up a collective meeting.

In the seventh year of Chongzhen, on the sixth day of March, Jingzhe.

Shenyang, inside Fengtian Hall.

The Datong Society held the second collective meeting. The chiefs and vice-chiefs of the various ministries of the Datong Society, the governors of each province, the prefects of each prefecture, the magistrates of each county, the generals of the military, the governors of all towns, the Xietong, and the standard Including the school lieutenant and the capital lieutenant all participated in this collective meeting.

Fengtian Hall was crowded with people, and it was densely packed as far as the eye could see. Everyone was wearing formal clothes.

Zhang Ruitu and Lu Xiangsheng presided over the meeting. They first talked about the development of Datong Society in Liaodong in the past five years, and then talked about the development of Datong Society in Northwest China, Shandong Province and Jiaozhi.

Through food storage, industrial development, commercial development, and the population of the people, the great situation of Datong Society, which has sufficient money and food, and strong soldiers and horses, is shown to everyone, so that people can understand that Datong Society has become stronger and stronger.

In the end, Zhang Haogu, who was sitting in the chair, said: "Cadres of the Datong Society and comrades of the Datong Party, it took us five years to reach the present step by step. What is it for? For the sake of great harmony in the world! For the safety of the country and the people.”

"We spent ten years implementing the new policies and laws, but ultimately failed. But the lesson of that time reminded us, let us know that in a decaying world, in order to complete the innovation, we must have the courage to teach the sun and the moon to change the sky awareness."

"In the past, the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty was tyrannical, and the people were in dire straits. Under natural disasters and man-made disasters, China sank for nearly a hundred years. In the end, there was a stone man with one eye who provoked the rebellion of the Yellow River. Now the Ming court is incompetent, and the people suffer innocently. We Datong party members have been here for 500 years. With the changing situation, how can we sit back and watch the people suffer and China be robbed?"

"Those feudal, depraved, and decadent old societies are time to be completely wiped out!"

"After 15 years of arduous struggle by our Datong party members, it is finally time for a result."

"Starting today, our goal is to liberate the whole world."

"Get rid of the old qi of the six heavens, and open up a new heaven for all generations!"
