Chapter 114 Unstained Legion?don't make trouble

Wang Zongmu, who was the governor of water transportation during the Longqing and Wanli years, and Liang Menglong, then the governor of Shandong, began to advocate sea transportation in the fifth year of Longqing.

At this time, more than 13 years have passed since Yongle stopped shipping by sea in 150 years, and technical difficulties are obvious, such as unfamiliarity with sea routes and lack of skilled sailors.

After the imperial court approved, Wang Zongmu and others were cautious and carried out a short-distance trial operation first.

In June of the sixth year of Longqing, Wang Zongmu made a report: "The 12 shi grain grains left the Huai River on a certain day, and arrived in the Bay in Tianjin the next time, and there was no loss of rice."

It can be said that the success of the trial operation is of great significance, but the fact is that it does not gradually expand the sea transportation as people think.

In October of that year, Nanjing Huke sent a report to Zhang Huan during the incident, impeaching Wang Zongmu for dereliction of duty and concealing the report, saying that he had heard that eight ships had sunk in the shipping industry, and the people on board and more than 3000 shimi had drowned together.

Regarding this impeachment, Wang Zongmu made a detailed defense, but the result was still pending.The Ministry of Finance's opinion is that the seaway will continue to open, but the volume of transportation will not increase, and it will still be 12 shi.

Officials have neither concluded on the operation of Hai, nor verified whether the impeachment is true or false.The result of ignoring it is actually the victory of the opposition to the maritime faction.

In the second year, it was shipped again by sea, and the crow's mouth of the opposition actually came true.When the sea ships arrived in Jimo, seven ships sank in the wind, 15 soldiers were sacrificed, and some food was lost.

No matter how Wang Zongmu analyzed the cause of the accident technically, the opposition grouped up to attack, and he could have attempted a successful sea transportation, so he died prematurely.

To sum up, the reasons for the opposition are mainly Confucian theories, benevolent government, and love for the people.

They cited the number of casualties recorded in the history books, and then characterized the shipping as a product of the tyranny of the Yuan Dynasty, a tyranny that harmed the people and harmed the people.

Of course, due to the limitation of the technology at that time, the size, firmness and resistance to wind and waves of the ship, as well as the changes in the sea climate could not be effectively grasped, and the situation of the sea route was not familiar enough.Ships capsized and sailors died. It is an unavoidable fact that the transportation in the early days of the sea channel was difficult and dangerous.

Storms, fog, hidden reefs, and pirate attacks are indeed problems to be solved.But from the general trend, as well as efficiency and emergency preparedness, sea freight must be tried.

Moreover, Zhu Youxiao believes that the actual difficulty is not greater than imagined.

Ocean-going commercial transportation has been booming, and going to Sulfur Ball, Japan, and Luzon is not a long distance, and even going to Europe, Africa, and America has become a reality, let alone domestic short-sea shipping?
Then start from the sea transportation of Liaodong grain and payment, and take the first step to take the first step out of the waste of water transportation and the revitalization of the sea!

Zhu Youxiao put down the memorial and decided that Jian Ba ​​would be Shen Tingyang.Well, Chongming (Shanghai) people are from the same hometown as Xu Paulo, and they both have relatively broad-minded eyes.

Thousands of gold buy horse bones, Zhu Youxiao certainly knows how important it is to set an example.At the same time, he has also strengthened his method of selecting talents, the masters are among the people, and there are leftovers in the countryside!
Holding the book in his hand, Zhu Youxiao patted on the palm of his left hand, thinking about how to promote Shen Tingyang, and start a sea trial, when he saw Wang Tiqian come in.

Seeing Wang Tigan's expression and movements, Zhu Youxiao knew that this guy had something to do, raised his chin, and said, "But there is another memorial from the minister?"

Wang Ti groaned twice, knelt down and raised his hands high, and said: "Your Majesty, it's the servants who have their own performance."

Zhu Youxiao blinked, and reached out to signal Xiao Huangmen to bring Wang Gonggong's memorabilia, and opened it to read.

Regain internal exercises? !Shouldn't this be Uncle Wei's job in history? Why did you come to do it?
Zhu Youxiao glanced at Wang Tigan suspiciously, but the words "Wugou Legion" suddenly popped up in his mind.

The Unsullied Legion is very fierce. Gray worms and white worms can fight with a shield and a gun.

How about forming a group to practice well and send them to Liaodong to fight Jiannu?But these father-in-laws don't look like they can fight, do they?
It is not a new thing to say that eunuchs form an army. For example, the Jing army is composed of eunuchs.

But known as the army, the main duty of the Jingjun is to be deployed in the imperial palace and tombs, to undertake daily sweeping, incense, and watch shifts; or to guard the tombs, often accompanying the dead bones in the tombs.

In other words, what the Jing army does is servant work, not for fighting at all.

Forget it, stop this unreliable nonsense.Armors and weapons should be used closely by frontline soldiers!
Zhu Youxiao remembered that the Chongzhen Emperor in history also had a clean army. There were tens of thousands of them, all with the best equipment and generous military pay.

Then, these father-in-law soldiers screamed for training all day long, and it seemed like that was the case.But when Li Zicheng came, these father-in-laws swarmed and ran away.

Alas, no eggs, just can't do it!Zhu Youxiao didn't target anyone, but he could see clearly the fighting power of his father-in-law.

"The loyalty of the king's companion is commendable."

Zhu Youxiao knew that Uncle Wei had won the award, Wang Tigan was a little jealous, and he came to show his loyalty.

The purpose of training the Jing Army is to defend the palace and protect the royal family. If you don't agree, don't let this dog's slave feel cold.

After a pause, Zhu Youxiao said: "But training soldiers and martial arts is not the director of the palace, so let's discuss it from the perspective!"

Wang Tiqian was a little disappointed, but he didn't dare to argue, and kowtowed to accept the order.

Zhu Youxiao looked at Wang Tiqian, and said in a deep voice: "The palace is spending a lot of money, how is the Wang companion's investigation?"

Wang Tiqian hurriedly replied: "According to the secret investigations sent by the servants, the inner palace supervisor has the seal of Wang Chaofu, and the imperial supervisor has the seal of Li Chaoqing. Both of them are suspected of corruption and have a lot of private wealth."

Zhu Youxiao lowered his eyelids and said lightly: "Since we have found out, what are you waiting for?"

"I'll do it now, servant girl." Wang Tiqian cheered up, and retreated after saluting.

The inner palace supervisor is responsible for managing the daily needs of the palace, and is also responsible for the maintenance, development and renovation of the palace in the palace, which is rich in oil and water.

The imperial prison is an institution that manages and collects and purchases luxury goods exclusively for the royal family, and it is also a fat job with a lot of room for operation.

Moreover, Wang Chaofu and Li Chaoqing both defected to Wei Zhongxian earlier.Wang Tiqian also has his own selfish motives for attacking these two organizations or these two individuals.

But what Zhu Youxiao wanted was the result, since it was corruption, he never let it go.Besides, dealing with eunuchs is much easier than civil servants, it's just a matter of one sentence.

Alas, what a pity to see, greedy for gold and silver, but in the end it's all for nothing, why can't you see it?
Zhu Youxiao shook his head slightly, thinking of Liu Jin, Yan Song, He Shen and others.Work hard for me and be busy for me, why bother?
