Ming politicians

The problem of the vassal king is only one aspect, and there are more problems that need to be dealt with, or arranged. Yang Sichang and Lu Xiangsheng have made it clear that they are willing to contribute to things. Yang Sichang was the former chief assistant of the cabinet and had a great influence. Moreover, he is also very familiar with how to act as an agent for government affairs. It is said that such a person can be used with confidence, but Su Tiancheng can't be completely relieved. The key lies in Yang Sichang's understanding. After all, Yang Sichang entered the imperial court through the imperial examination. He is not very familiar with some practices in Dengzhou, Laizhou, and Qingzhou. It cannot be said that it was Yang Sichang’s fault that the status of merchants was the lowest and that they must be strictly controlled. The Ming system was like this. In this era, no one really understood the power of capital.

Don't talk about Yang Sichang, Zhu Shenxuan has a process of transformation, but Zhu Shenxuan's status is different, and his understanding is different. He does things for Su Tiancheng wholeheartedly. Since he took care of money, Zhu Shenxuan has fully realized that there is no Money is not good for anything. Every day, the money in the Governor's Mansion is spent like water, and it must be supported by quite high taxes. The three prefectures of Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou rely on the income from business and trade. Zhu Shenxuan has long been addicted to it, and now Zhu Shenxuan does not have the concept of looking down on merchants.

Under such circumstances, Su Tiancheng could only temporarily let Yang Sichang have an on-the-spot understanding of the relevant situations in Dengzhou, Laizhou, and Qingzhou.Infect Yang Sichang with facts, let Yang Sichang realize the importance of business.Realize the correctness of the current policies in Dengzhou and other places.Only when Yang Sichang truly changed his understanding from the heart can he play a positive role.

Lu Xiangsheng made an arrangement to go to Fujian with Su Tiancheng.

Wu Sangui finally got his wish. After the selection of sergeants, he entered the Jiangning Battalion again. This time he served as the guard commander of the Second Battalion of the Infantry Battalion of the Jiangning Battalion.

The Jiangning Battalion has always been very cautious in appointing high-level officers.For so many years, the officers of the first level of guard commanders have hardly moved. The guard commanders of the Jiangning battalion are different from the guard commanders of the local guards. sergeant.There may be only a few hundred people, and thousands of people are very good, but the guard commander of the Jiangning battalion is different. The army under his command is close to [-]. In addition to the frequent battles of the Jiangning battalion, sometimes.After the battle deployment is finalized, the commander of the guards will take on the task alone, command tens of thousands of troops to fight, and even command a single aspect of the battle.

Speaking of which, the guard commander of the Jiangning Battalion.The resources at his disposal even surpassed that of the general army.

More than ten years have passed, except when it was first established.In the Jiangning Battalion after that, the team continued to grow, but there were only a few officers who really entered the rank of guard commander, Di Huaixiang, Qin Rui, Liu Wenxiu, Ai Nengqi, Li Dingguo, etc., among them Liu Wenxiu and others The three of them, together with Wu Sangui, were appointed as commanders of the Jiangning camp and guards.

As a brave and huge army, the Jiangning Battalion has a very clear command hierarchy. The commander of the army is Su Tiancheng, who has no supervising army. Next is Hong Chengchou, who is equivalent to the deputy commander. Qu Qingze's position is very special, equivalent to Jiang Ning The chief of staff of the battalion, and one level below, are Sun Chuanting and Bi Maokang, who are in charge of different aspects, and then there are many guard commanders, who are responsible for commanding their respective troops. [

But the military regulations of the Jiangning Battalion are also very clear. Subordinates obey their superiors, and disobedience is never allowed, let alone the disadvantages of mercenary self-respect. In this regard, Wu Sangui is very emotional. With an army of nearly 15, it can be done It's really not easy for orders to be banned and military orders to fall like a mountain. From this, he also became more aware of Su Tiancheng's ability, put away his small thoughts, and honestly follow Su Tiancheng to work hard, there will always be a good future.

This time Wu Sangui received the order to prepare for the expedition to Fujian, and the commander of the army was Su Tiancheng.

The countdown to departure has entered, and all relevant arrangements must be implemented.

The [-]-strong army was divided into two parts. Hong Chengchou led a [-]-strong army, via Henan Province, directly entered Zhejiang Province, and temporarily avoided Nanzhili. Su Tiancheng led an [-]-strong army and entered Quanzhou, Fujian by boat. At that time, the troops stationed in Taiwan Wang Dazhi will also lead some soldiers from the Jiangning Camp to Quanzhou to make peace with Su Tiancheng.

How to manage Taiwan Island, Su Tiancheng's thinking has changed. He used to plan to use Taiwan Island as his final foothold. Once he had a conflict with the imperial court, he would control Taiwan Island and develop towards Luzon and Southeast Asia. But now it is different. Yes, Su Tiancheng's determination is to control the world tomorrow.But Taiwan Island is very important, especially in the current situation, Su Tiancheng mainly relies on sea trade, the goods shipped from Daming, and the goods shipped from overseas are almost all under Su Tiancheng's control. The huge price difference inside is the source of Su Tiancheng's profits. This is similar to the tariffs hundreds of years later. Since Xiong Zijian was stationed in Quanzhou, Fujian, it echoes Dengzhou. Unless they are doing business honestly, thinking about evading taxes, or thinking about smuggling, once they are discovered, they will be in a situation where people and money are empty, and in front of a powerful navy, everyone is honest. The warships of China, Spain, and Portugal did not dare to show their teeth in front of the Jiangningying navy, let alone the possible pirates.

Controlling Taiwan means completely controlling the Taiwan Strait, and Taiwan, as a key trading and transit location, will play an increasingly important role in the future. Once Su Tiancheng starts to expand abroad, Taiwan's huge role will be fully displayed.

For a long time, the missions of the Jiangning Battalion were mainly carried out by He Renlong, Liu Wenxiu, Ai Nengqi, and Li Dingguo. The former guard commanders gradually began to focus on stationing and guarding. It was also what Su Tiancheng meant, he was good at discovering talents.

After Lu Xiangsheng followed Su Tiancheng, he once mentioned Zu Dashou and Zu Dale, saying that when he left Liaodong, these two people insisted on coming to Dengzhou together, but the court did not allow them, and they could not. leave.In fact, there are still many military officers who come to Dengzhou. Zuo Liangyu, who was stationed in Wuchang, wanted to enter the Jiangning Camp many years ago. However, if these people want to enter the Jiangning Camp, it depends on Su Tiancheng's attitude. how.

This time the Jiangning Battalion was divided into two armies. Qu Qingze, He Renlong, Liu Tiehan and Wu Sangui followed Su Tiancheng into Fujian by boat; Liu Wenxiu, Ai Nengqi and Li Dingguo followed Hong Chengchou into Zhejiang; states etc.

The division of labor in the Governor's Office is also very clear. Zhu Shenxuan is in charge of all aspects of Shandong, Fuzhou, Xuanzhou, Gaizhou, Taiwan and even Quanzhou. Yang Sichang is mainly responsible for people's livelihood, and Zhang Pu is mainly responsible for In terms of business affairs, Su Jun and Su Ertong stayed in the Governor's Mansion. One of the most important changes was that Su Jun became Qu Qingze's deputy and began to be in charge of intelligence matters. Qu Qingze had been alone for a long time. He is in charge of intelligence affairs, but with the changing situation and the continuous development of the intelligence system, it is impossible for Qu Qingze to be busy alone. Qu Qingze has taken a fancy to Su Jun and thinks that Su Jun is flexible and able to do intelligence work well. Of course, Su Jun's identity is more reassuring, he was originally a servant of the Su family.

As for prefectures and counties, the focus is different. The main tasks of Jinan, Yanzhou and Dongchang Prefectures are to resolve land mergers, clarify land taxation, and prepare for spring plowing in the coming year when the Spring Festival is approaching. matters, to solve the many difficulties encountered by the common people, in Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou, the focus is to adjust the layout of commerce and trade, and start to tilt towards Jinan Prefecture and other places appropriately, Fuzhou, Xuanzhou and Gaizhou and other places, the key task , or do a good job of defense.

In addition, the matter of relief for victims of disasters cannot be relaxed.

Officials in prefectures and counties have figured out their responsibilities and do things according to the requirements. The salaries of officials in Shandong have been greatly increased. With more money in hand, the requirements for doing things are different. They must be much stricter. up.

Before Su Tiancheng left Dengzhou, two things were done, which made him very relieved. This was a good start.

The first thing is the issue of establishing a school. After Zhu Shenxuan, Qu Qingze and others’ suggestions, temporarily set up a comprehensive school. The school is located in Dengzhou, less than ten miles away from Fucheng. In the future, Most of the officials in Shandong and other places will come from this school, and the teachers of the school are also very complicated. There are old and stubborn Xu Eryi, many foreigners from overseas, and even so-called Japanese pirates from Japan. The person in charge is temporarily held concurrently by Deng Hui, the prefect of Dengzhou. [

Su Tiancheng put Xu Eryi in the school to let Xu Eryi have a good experience, or to be sharpened. He believes that after a period of time, Xu Eryi can completely change his mind.

There are many kinds of education in the school, but the most important thing is the education on the concept, and the idea of ​​obedience and service runs through the entire teaching.

The second thing is that Zhu Shenxuan properly solved the problem of the vassal king. Both Lu Wang and De Wang were honest. Maybe the situation in Shandong was different. The two naturally understood the direction of the wind. At the request of the government, the merged land was sold at a very low price, which surprised the literati in Shandong. The royal family members all sold the merged land. If they, the literati, continue to insist, it will definitely be bad. fruit to eat.

Su Tianhao and Xu Jili also wrote a special letter, informing Jinan and Yanzhou that many matters were progressing much faster.

Development is inevitable, things can never be finished, but Su Tiancheng has been able to leave Dengzhou with peace of mind, to expand the territory. (To be continued.
