Zhu Youxiao is naturally very familiar with Hong Chengchou and Yang Sichang.Especially Hong Chengchou.Zhu Youxiao clearly remembered that although this person was not good at discipline in history, his ability was indeed very strong.In the Chongzhen Dynasty, he and Lu Xiangsheng performed best in encircling and suppressing the peasant army.Even, after the latter surrendered to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, when even the Manchu nobles were ready to give up the five southwestern provinces because Li Dingguotai was able to fight, he helped the Manchus occupy the entire land of China.It can be said that if it weren't for Hong Chengchou, it would not have been so easy for the Manchus to destroy the Southern Ming forces.However, Zhu Youxiao did not exterminate some figures who had not yet had time to betray the nation and the country because of the events that had not yet happened in this era.As an emperor, in line with the principle of using talents according to their talents and using as many talents as possible for their own use, he still plans to give Hong Chengchou and these people some opportunities to perform although they have suffered losses in history but have outstanding abilities.Otherwise, Zhu Youxiao would not have been promoted to their official position, and he has always paid attention to his career.But it's just that Zhu Youxiao didn't expect Hong Chengchou to disappear.This made Zhu Youxiao feel a little depressed.If you can be a dog for the Manchus, you can't be a dog for me?
Is it because what you are doing is depriving your class of interests?
However, aren't you Hong Chengchou a speculator who can be sold by a nation, and you still care about selling your own class interests?
Zhu Youxiao was puzzled by this.Then, Zhu Youxiao suddenly thought of what he had recently known about the gentry training overseas.Therefore, he hurriedly instructed Wei Zhongxian: "Wei Zhongxian!
Dongchang must find out the whereabouts of this person, live to see people, dead to see the corpse, if this person can no longer be used by the court, then do everything possible to assassinate him!
Have the families of all the missing officials been controlled?
”"Slave and maid obey!
Dongchang will carefully find out Hong Chengchou's whereabouts, but if we return to the emperor, we have no control over the families of these missing people, because when the slaves and maids know about their disappearance and send people to go, these missing people and even their descendants have disappeared, and even the land and property have been sold. ”Wei Zhongxian replied.Zhu Youxiao was stunned after hearing this, and said, "It's really thoughtful!"
It seems that there are really a lot of diehards who don't give up and want to go against me!
”Zhu Youxiao can basically conclude that Hong Chengchou and Yang Sichang, who are quite capable people in history, have already stood on the opposite side of him, the emperor.Therefore, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but look at Xiong Tingbi and Yuan Keli, who was ordered to return to Beijing to report on his work, and couldn't help but say proudly: "I don't know if the ministers in charge of the army such as Xiong Tingbi, Yuan Keli, and Sun Chuanting around me will be the opponents of Hong Chengchou and Yang Sichang in the future." ”"Spread the decree, the big and small Jiuqing and other hall officials, as well as all the elders of the martial arts hall who stayed in Beijing, will come to the Qinzheng Palace to see me!"
Zhu Youxiao suddenly commanded.He knew that he had to deal with it seriously, if the reactionary gentry forces at home and the foreign captives and foreign forces united with them.Therefore, he had to seriously discuss it with his close ministers.…… Not far from Nagasaki and Heido, there is a place called Kuga Island.In a Chinese-style house, Hong Chengchou and other reactionary gentry were sitting at this time.Hong Chengchou was frowning, glancing in the direction of the middle earth, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes, and then glanced at the gentry mercenaries on the island who were being trained by the Mandarin Duck Array."
Hong Gong has always been good at reading military books, I don't know what to say about these soldiers?"
Yang Sichang, who was also sitting here, asked about Hong Chengchou at this time."
Yes!
Hong Gong, you were good at using soldiers when you were in charge of the grain road in Zhejiang, and you captured me with only dozens of people, and I am very admired by the national treasure of the land until now, you tell me, how about these soldiers I trained, can I go back to Jiangnan in the future to turn him upside down?
”The national treasure of the Taihu Lake water thieves asked Hong Chengchou at this time.Hong Chengchou glared at him: "What do you want to do when you kidnap me, what kind of soldiers does Hong know, and if you capture a few water thieves, you know the soldiers?"
”Yang Sichang smiled: "Why should Hong Gong be humble, you and I have known each other when we were both Beijing officials, in Yang's opinion, Hong Gong is a person with a lot of strategy in his chest, and he is also quite popular in Shilin, and he will achieve a career in the future." ”"Yang Wen is weak!"
Hong Chengchou suddenly stood up, looked at Yang Sichang and shouted, and said, "You are enough!"
Hong doesn't have the heart to laugh with you now. ”Yang Sichang also lowered his face: "Yang didn't joke with you either, Hong Gong, do you think you can go back, don't hide it, almost all the gentry who are still in Middle-earth now already know that you Hong Chengchou took the initiative to disappear and went to sea with his whole family, intending to form a new army in order to achieve a great cause!"
”"You!"
Hong Chengchou pointed at Yang Sichang and gritted his teeth.Ye Chengmin, the son of Ye Xianggao, who was also here, hurriedly stood up: "Okay!
”Then, Ye Chengmin arched his hand to Hong Chengchou and said, "Please also ask Hong Gong to calm his anger!"
Now the tyrant's perverse behavior and cruelty to the gentry have long been obvious to all!
Today, he is clearing the acres of land, spreading the acres into the acres, and strictly chasing the endowment, who knows what harsh policies will come out tomorrow!
That's it, the key is that now the government-run cotton cloth and silk are rampant, and our homespun cloth is seriously unsalable, so if this continues, it will be difficult for our gentry to have the wealth of the past!
Although the gentry in Jiangnan have already rebelled and been brutally suppressed by it, it does not mean that the gentry in Fujian, Zhejiang, and Liangguang will be willing to be exploited by it!
”"It is foreseeable that this tyrant will not be satisfied with this in the future, after seeing the benefits of sea trade, he will definitely increase tariffs, and even commercial taxes, as evidenced by his pilot tariff collection in Songjiang and the new commercial tax in Tianjin!
How can we gentry sit still and wait for death, so there are not a few gentry who secretly support and go to sea with their families to directly unite with pirates, foreign fans, and Japanese pirates like us, and recruit and train soldiers. ”Yang Sichang took over and said."
In this case, why don't you unite and form an alliance, as it is now, some of them are training in the Ryukyus, some are training in the Japanese country, and how can they become powerful?
Aren't you afraid of being broken by the imperial court?
”Hong Chengchou couldn't help but ask."
None of the gentry are willing to break down and form an army, they are all looking for the cooperation of their own related pirate foreign domains, not all of them are recruited at their own expense, so it is very difficult to form an alliance, after all, there are many contradictions between the pirate foreign vassals!"
Yang Sichang replied.Hong Chengchou shook his head after hearing this, secretly thinking that these gentry were still afraid of spending too much money.But Hong Chengchou was not surprised, because if these gentry were willing to spend money, they would not resist because the imperial court took away part of their interests."
But it's not impossible, now the pirates and foreign fans have known the wealth of China under our lure, and have already rekindled the heart of Middle-earth, and therefore gradually have the intention of cooperation, once an alliance is formed in the future, it will be able to form a general trend, after all, the soldiers trained in various places are not to mention 200,000 soldiers and horses, not to mention 100,000, and the sea area of Middle-earth is wide, and the imperial court will be difficult to parry!
Exhausted!
”Yang Sichang continued, and said: "For this reason, Yang specially planned a strategy of counterattacking the mainland and plundering Middle-earth, and asked Hong Gong to advise, Yang's strategy is specifically the four corners and six corners, and the ten sides attack, specifically, Shuangyu, Ryukyu, Dongfan, and Kinmen are the four squares, and Hirado, Kagoshima, Manila, Manraka, Borneo, and Annam are the six corners, mainly from Shuangyu, Ryukyu, Dongfan, and Kinmen, and train troops to raise food in the six corners of Hirado and Kagoshima!
