Chapter 1326: Speed Up


The cabinet is cold and unusual, and the wind and rain are shaky.

Sun Chuanting looked at the pavilion elders present, his tone was quite resolute, and said: "Evil words confuse the public, and have bad intentions!"

In the name of ghosts and gods, attacking the imperial court, what are all departments doing!

” Since Zhu Xu succeeded to the throne, rumors have never stopped, inside and outside the palace, up and down the Ming Dynasty, rumors are almost everywhere, and the attacks and injuries to the Ming Dynasty are deepening day by day.

Especially since Sun Chuanting took the throne, the attacks on the cabinet ministers including Sun Chuanting have been overwhelming, bringing endless disasters to Sun Chuanting's governance and the 'new policy' of the Ming Dynasty.

This time, Sun Chuanting was really angry.

He is not afraid of those people outside, nor is he afraid of the so-called gossip, but he is not in a different place, too sensitive, if he touches the scales of the Qianqing Palace and provokes dissatisfaction, he, the first assistant, may really be driven out of power in embarrassment!

"I have already talked to Zhao Shangshu, and the Ministry of Officials has decided to set up a public opinion control department to control these rumors, and this matter will be quickly suppressed!"

Zhou Yingqiu's face was indifferent, and he said in a rather calm tone.

This matter is not only worried by Sun Chuanting, but also by everyone in the cabinet.

King Jing said: "The Governor's Yuan has sent forty patrols to the imperial history of the city, and soon we will be able to find the person who compiled these rumors, and we will definitely deal with it ruthlessly and make an example of it!"

” Sun Chuanting's face was fierce, his eyes were full of murderous intent, and he said: "One hour, I will only give you one hour!"

If I can still hear rumors within an hour, I will take three of you and three more Shangshu!

” This is quite a terrible threat, and the hearts of those present are cold, which shows that Sun Chuanting is really angry this time.

A group of cabinet elders left the palace one after another, and then the cabinet of the imperial court, the six ministries and many other yamen, a rare action, has disappeared for many years, and the Tiqi galloped around on the wide street of the Ming Dynasty.

In just half an hour, the ruffians and hooligans, street gangsters, some low-level officials, and some officials of the former dynasty were arrested, and there were four or five hundred more people in the capital prison in half an hour!

"My lord, I was wronged, I didn't smash that shop, let me out......"

"Big réndà people, I don't, the daughter-in-law of the Yang family has nothing to do with us, I'm just passing by, begging for grace from adults......"

"Adult, adult, those rumors were not written by me, they really weren't, I heard about them in the teahouse, and I just taught them to play casually for children......"

"My lord, my lord, I can't be offended for my words, the lower official didn't say anything, I really didn't say it......"

In the prison, countless people were shouting, panicking, and fearing, desperately rushing at the jailers, eager to rush out.

Some old people in the prison smiled and 'comforted'.

"Don't shout, this is a prison, either you have the means to reach the sky, or you just wait for a miracle, otherwise, cut off your head or sit in the bottom of the prison......"

"Hey, these newcomers, they will be honest after a while, they don't know the methods of these jailers......"

"Wait, when I was a child, I peed on the bed several times a day, and they would be clear, hey, it's still tender......"

A group of old prisoners sat on the haystack, bored, and commented on these newcomers, which was quite instructive.

In one of the cells among them, there was nothing else except for a little cleaner, and several old prisoners did not comment, each leaning against the wall, holding the grass in his mouth, with a leisurely and indifferent expression.

At the bedside, there was a middle-aged man, with dark skin and a few scars, leaning against it, never speaking or interacting with anyone else.

Because this person was the murderer of the murder case, sentenced to beheading the prison marquis, and has been waiting for death, no one dares to provoke him, this cell has a strange quiet.

The middle-aged man raised his head, looked at the person who was arrested, shook his head secretly, and sighed in his heart: 'Sun Chuanting is much stronger than Bi Ziyan, life is not easy......

The actions of the imperial court were so big that even the place felt like the mountains were pressing down, and they began to do things like crazy.

On the Qinhuai River, overnight, hundreds of Qinglou Song Workshops were seized, and more than 500 people were arrested.

Sun Chuanting's cabinet authority is growing day by day, and the local government is like a great enemy, where dare to slack off, a vigorous 'rumor-eradication' action swept the entire Ming Dynasty, and the number of people arrested for this alone is as high as nearly 10,000 people!

Countless copies, dànhé, some people from the 'Bushi Alliance' even committed crimes against the wind, and a joint letter from more than 100 Confucian scholars was published in Su Bao, the largest newspaper in Nanzhili.

All kinds of big truths, such as 'the disaster of the party', 'blocking the way of speech, leaving the field of direct ministers', 'the court is bad, and all the people mourn', etc., although they are not directly spoken, they are all angry and uneasy about the court's actions.

Huge pressure, like a tidal wave, surging and surging towards the cabinet.

Fu Changzong's old things were turned out again.

But without Luo Yangxing manipulating behind his back, everything seemed nondescript, quite scattered, and the attack power was weak, so Zhou Yingqiu dealt with it with his backhand.

But a series of things caused by this, Sun Chuanting did not spare his hand, all because of this case, the real power of a series of institutions of the imperial court was enriched, and further reached into the locality, the Governor's Yuan, Dali Temple quickly advanced, the anti-corruption bureau was wanton, and more than 100 officials of the fifth or sixth grade were arrested in one go, all over the court and localities!

The resulting instability and backlash poured into the imperial court, into the cabinet, and into Sun Chuanting, like a hundred rivers returning to the sea.

Sun Chuanting was in the Qianqing Palace at this time, he stood in front of Zhu Xu, and said, "At present, the biggest resistance comes from the local gentry forces, and if they don't move a little now, the place will tremble."

Although the imperial court does not have enough ability, energy, comprehensive, and concentrated handling of local affairs, such piecemeal beating is not a kind of preparation. ” Zhu Xu was playing chess, staring at the black and white chess pieces, and said 'um' casually.

Just like what he said to these pavilion elders a few days ago, Daming wants to break the Great Wall and water bottle in his head, he has already done the foreshadowing and made sufficient preparations, and now he is doing it, it is all a matter of course, and there is no resistance.

Sun Chuanting stood respectfully and said: "Jin Yiwei's side informed the cabinet that there was no participation of Luo Yangxing and others this time, and it was purely those who opposed the 'New Deal' who were backing up, and the ministers had already dealt with it properly and would not disturb the Qianqing Palace." ” Zhu Xu turned his head with a smile and said, "Well, I believe in your ability, these things, you don't need to come over to report these things, you can do things with peace of mind." ” Sun Chuanting's face was still reverent, and he said, "Yes."

The minister and the marshal's government have already coordinated, and they are almost ready on their side, and they may be requisitioned in advance, and the minister ordered Shandong, Tianjin, and Liaodong to do a good job in logistics, and will not drag down the war. ” Zhu Xu looked at him and said, "Don't mention this first."

What are you going to do next?

” Sun Chuanting said, "Consolidate the imperial court, straighten out the institutions, strictly enforce the authority, and at the same time promote the rectification of the rule of officials, from the inside of Beijing to outside Beijing, the current important task of the imperial court is still the first ...... of the rule of officials" Zhu Xu nodded and agreed: "Well, persevere, don't be afraid, retreat."

This year's imperial examination, you personally preside, the number of jinshi can be further expanded, after the previous minister, observe it, see if there are any talents, you can mention báchūlái.

It is also very important to rectify the rule of officials and train new people. ” Sun Chuanting could understand Zhu Xu's good intentions, and raised his hand and said, "The minister obeys the order." ” Zhu Xu said, "Eliminate the provincial prime ministers, how are you preparing?"

” Sun Chuanting thought for a while and said: "Liaodong is planned to be three provinces, Liaodong, Shanghe, Moyang, plus the three provinces of Naxu, I have a total of 25 provinces in the Ming Dynasty, if there is a prime minister, it is beyond the reach of the whip, and there is no need for a prime minister now."

The minister's plan to recall the prime ministers to Beijing is also ready for the parliament, and it should be completed this month. ” Zhu Xu nodded and said, "Well, what else is the plan?"

” Sun Chuanting said: "After this time, the minister plans to summon the governors of various places to enter Beijing in batches, go deep into the pool with them, and then act in concert to promote reforms in all aspects, so as to avoid changes in the imperial court and affect local morale......"

Zhu Xu fell softly, stood up, and said: "This is very good, you talk about it first, I'll see you later, press it, these adults have been in the place for a long time, they know all kinds of problems, all kinds of difficulties, they will be afraid, they will retreat, they must give enough pressure......"

Sun Chuanting turned sideways and said, "Yes."

The minister's meaning is to ask them to act in unison and create enough momentum, as long as the momentum is complete, it will be difficult to retreat. ” Zhu Xu walked to the desk, sat down and said, "Well, the idea is right, do it faster."

This year's Shenlong Mansion Trade Conference, you go there in person, in terms of business, you should make more preparations to promote development......"

Sun Chuanting said: "Yes."

The minister also planned that the two-pronged approach, commerce, may also be a key to breaking the collusion of the gentry. ” Zhu Xu smiled, Sun Chuanting thought more comprehensively, except for some blind spots, he basically didn't need to mention it.

When Sun Chuanting faced the saint, hundreds of big ships in Dengzhou gathered, floating quietly on the water.

Cao Bianjiao and Dolgon stood side by side on a hill, pointed to the sea and said: "To the north, it is Tsushima Island, there is a base there, which I captured two years ago, and now it is very good, suitable for the garrison of the army, and also suitable for the navy to dock, behind is North Korea, in front of Jiuguo Island, it can be attacked, retreated can be defended, it is an excellent place!"

” Dolgon had already studied the map in detail, and nodded: "It's indeed a good place, but to transport it over, we have to see how many people are seasick, and the naval battle is not suitable for us." ” Cao Bianjiao said: "Okay, let's go to Tsushima first, Tsushima is not far from Jiuguo Island." ” Dolgon's expression was calm, like a loyal general of the Ming Dynasty, and said, "Governor Cao, the last general wants to meet with Governor Yang, I don't know if it's appropriate?"

” Yang Dadu Governor is also Yang Sichang, this time the envoy.

Cao Bianjiao glanced at him, his face was as usual, and said, "Governor Yang has already gone to Ezo, and there are 30,000 Mongolian troops over there. ” Dolgon didn't answer this, he was silent for a while, and said: "According to the information obtained by the last general, the Wa country is an island country, the terrain is difficult, and the population is very dense, and the available young people are as high as millions, and their shogun is quite capable, 100,000 troops, is it really enough?"

” Cao Bianjiao glanced at him, showed a rare smile, and said, "You are worried, and the government and the opposition are also worried."

Now it is the summer harvest, the Wa country must be in a hurry, their fatal place is that there is no fortress, there is no cover, all places are within the scope of my Ming attack, the Wa country will be defeated!

” Dolgon nodded almost subconsciously, but in his heart he didn't think so.

The Wa Kingdom is an island country, with many mountains, many islands, peninsulas, complex roads, fierce atmosphere, and dense population.

The Ming people marched and always abided by the 'etiquette law', only punishing the first evil, and the rest were pardoned, isn't this going to be endless?

He didn't say this, his identity is very sensitive, and he can't say much at this time.

Cao Bianjiao didn't know what kind of thoughts he had, and he seemed to know everything, but in fact, he had a lot of reservations and didn't tell Dorgon.

At the same time, the Ryukyus, the Korean army was easily concentrated, and they were not stationed on Tsushima Island, but went to the Satsuma domain in Kagoshima, which belonged to Zuo Liangyu.

In this way, the army of the Satsuma clan has 20,000, and with their temporary expansion, it is close to 30,000!

To the south of Sakhalin Island is Ezo Island, which has a very resounding name in later generations: Hokkaido.

The current Ezo Island is still a desolate and sparsely populated area, and the reclamation is not good, even if there have been immigrants in the Ming Dynasty in recent years, preventing reclamation, the relatively large island is still only in a corner.

The 30,000-strong Mongol army was already stationed here, looking across the Tsugaru Strait, looking at the island across the water.

At this time, Yang Sichang and Qian Jinxiao, chief of the staff office, were in the camp to discuss specific strategies.

Qian Jinxiao looked at the map with a serious expression, and said, "My lord's previous plan was very good, but I landed at close range, took Edo, and disintegrated the Japanese kingdom in one fell swoop."

But not to mention whether we can reach Edo smoothly, if the Tokugawa shogunate takes them to withdraw in advance, we will not be able to pursue them for a long distance, and without backup and logistical support, if we fall into a bitter battle again, I am afraid that the whole army may be annihilated, which will affect the overall plan......"

Yang Sichang did not have any displeasure on his face, his eyes were fixed on the map, and he said: "The fear of the Shuai Mansion is right, the situation of the Japanese State is complicated, and it should be advanced step by step, steadily and steadily, and under the premise of ensuring victory......

But we can't wait, we can't turn the war into a stalemate, we can't keep going on ......"

The situation of the Ming Dynasty does not allow long-term tiring battles, and money and food cannot support it.

Qian Jin Xiaoxiao said: "Then, what do you think?"

The emperor has authorized you to command the front line, and you must not make mistakes. ” Yang Sichang was expressionless, and said: "There is still time, we will review the strategy and tactics again, formulate a quick and appropriate plan, order all armies to step up their positions, and order the military intelligence department to keep an eye on the Japanese state!"

” "Yes!"

Qian Jinxiao gave a military salute and said in a deep voice.

Yang Sichang stared at the map, looked at it for a while, and said: "The tactics in the early stage remain the same, use the navy to separate Shikoku Island from its own island and Jiuguo Island, and Dolgon's 50,000 troops will eat Shikoku Island!"

” Qian Jin said: "Then, if the Tokugawa shogunate attacks the Shimabara Peninsula on Kyukoku Island, how will Kagoshima attack?"
