Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 596 Southwest Strategy
Concubine Tian Gui didn't expect it, and was a little surprised.But she immediately came back to her senses, she was a little moved and agitated, she walked a few steps quickly, came in front of Chen Yuanyuan, helped her up, and said happily: "You really have a chance!"

While talking, she stretched out her hand to help Chen Yuanyuan wipe away her tears, and said with a smile, "Look at you, I haven't seen you for two years and one month, why are you still crying?"

"Your Majesty, I'm happy!" Chen Yuanyuan didn't move, allowing Concubine Tian Gui to wipe her tears, and replied with a smile.

Seeing this scene, the maids around who knew Chen Yuanyuan all saluted to Chen Yuanyuan with smiles, "I've seen you, my lord!"

When Chen Yuanyuan saw it, she quickly replied, "My lord, I'm still your sister Chen!"

Concubine Tian Gui was very happy watching this scene, and immediately took Chen Yuanyuan's hand, walked in, and said at the same time: "You have done really well, you have made us women proud. I have heard His Majesty mention it several times, Say you did a good job! Come on, tell me in detail, how did you get here in the past two years?"

A group of maids surrounded the two of them and followed them in, all of them listening with pricked ears.

Chen Yuanyuan walked out of them, so to speak, she is their role model and their idol.

Today's Chen Yuanyuan is a celebrity in the Ming Dynasty, at least all the women probably know it.

Duke Zhongzheng Qin Liangyu, Deputy Envoy Chen Yuanyuan, and Princess Kunxing, the number one scholar in Gephysics, these three are equally famous.

And Chen Yuanyuan felt very relaxed at Tian Guifei's place, chatting with Tian Guifei, talking about everything, like a little sister who talked about everything.

Concubine Tian Gui is curious about the outside world and her experience; she knows everything without saying anything;
She is also looking forward to what good repertoires the palace has gained from the fairy world in the past two years. At the same time, she also shared her experience in these aspects with Tian Guifei, including the fusion of some southwestern folk songs and singing tunes.

I don't know how long it took before the servants came to deliver the decree, and the emperor summoned them to finish their conversation.

When he saw Emperor Chongzhen, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help being very emotional when he saw the changes in Chen Yuanyuan.

In the past, Chen Yuanyuan was just a weak girl, but now, she has become a qualified female official who behaves decently in front of him.

Although Chen Yuanyuan was also very grateful to Emperor Chongzhen, she did not lose her composure in front of Concubine Tian, ​​and told Emperor Chongzhen what she had seen and heard in the past two years.Especially on the southwestern chieftain's side, she told Emperor Chongzhen about what she saw and thought, and what Sun Chuanting wanted her to convey.

Emperor Chongzhen was very satisfied when he heard it, and made an exception to promote Chen Yuanyuan as the first female official, which did not disappoint him.It can be said that awakening the power of women in the Ming Dynasty has taken a big step towards women holding up half the sky; with Chen Yuanyuan as an example, women will definitely make more contributions to the Ming Dynasty!
When he was happy, he rewarded Chen Yuanyuan with a house in the capital, and added two false titles to Chen Yuanyuan, allowing her to receive two more salaries.

Afterwards, Emperor Chongzhen confessed to Chen Yuanyuan: "Qing will rest in the capital for three days, record a few videos by the way, and then set off for Shanhaiguan. Qing will have to work hard for a while!"

Chen Yuanyuan was sent out of the capital, so he couldn't record the video. Liu Weichao said that many of Chen Yuanyuan's fans were very disappointed.His popularity in video is less and better.

Emperor Chongzhen remembered this incident, and now that Chen Yuanyuan is back, he naturally wanted to send a video to Liu Weichao.

"My minister leads the decree!" Chen Yuanyuan replied without hesitation, "I am most happy to serve His Majesty!"

It was a little different from the answers of other courtiers. They didn't say anything about going up the mountain of swords or going down the sea of ​​fire, or about putting one's heart and soul into it. On the contrary, Chen Yuanyuan's answer made Emperor Chongzhen feel very comfortable listening to it, and he was even more happy in his heart, so he immediately told Chen Yuanyuan Hurry up to rest and shoot a video tomorrow.

In fact, at this time, it was getting late.The lights in the Wenhua Hall are already on.

However, although Chen Yuanyuan went to rest, Emperor Chongzhen was still dealing with government affairs, and he was thinking about things in the southwest.

After thinking about the news that Chen Yuanyuan brought back and the memorials that Sun Chuanting had been sending him, he finally initiated a video communication request to Liu Weichao.

Liu Weichao's side was quickly connected, and it was very obvious that the lights on Liu Weichao's side were much brighter than his.This also reminds Emperor Chongzhen that the technology on his side is still very backward, and it still needs to vigorously develop technology.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, he said to Liu Weichao first: "Chen Yuanyuan has already returned to Beijing. I will ask her to record some videos tomorrow, and I will send her to Duqing in Shanhaiguan in three days' time!"

When Liu Weichao heard this, he was overjoyed and said very happily: "Chen Yuanyuan is finally back, this is really great!"

A large part of the traffic of his online store comes from the release of videos.Although Concubine Arita has always provided it, Chen Yuanyuan is the most popular one.I haven't seen Chen Yuanyuan in the past two years, and his videos have been imitated again. Following his ancient style, the growth of fans has slowed down significantly.

Now that Chen Yuanyuan is back, he believes that he will definitely gain a wave of fans for him and activate those dead fans.

He is even thinking about asking Chen Yuanyuan to advertise his online store.

Emperor Chongzhen knew that Liu Weichao would be very happy when he heard the news, and seeing him now, as expected, he was also happy.

Because Liu Wei is super good, he is good!

Afterwards, he started talking to Liu Weichao, "Over there in the southwest, I was thinking, should we speed up!"

In the past, Liu Weichao concluded that one of the reasons for his failure in governing state affairs in the past was that he was impatient and eager for success, such as urging the front line to fight quickly, which led to the defeat of the front line.

Therefore, although he now has ideas in his heart, he still wants to see what Liu Weichao thinks.

Liu Weichao often listened to Emperor Chongzhen tell him about political affairs, so he basically understood the affairs of the Chongzhen Dynasty.Hearing what he said at this time, he immediately asked: "Is it because we want to concentrate our forces to deal with the coalition forces of Jianlu and Japan?"

"Yes!" Emperor Chongzhen nodded after hearing this, and said, "Now that the Japanese kingdom has begun to set foot in North Korea, I estimate that there will probably be a big war in at most two years. Just relying on the current military strength in Gyeonggi and Shanhaiguan The military strength is probably not enough. Moreover, once the war breaks out, Liaodong will definitely have to take advantage of the trend to recover. North Korea wants to occupy it, and the Japanese country wants to send troops. The required number of troops is not small. I don’t think it is good to delay the war in the southwest! "

Liu Weichao nodded when he heard that, once the war broke out in the Northeast, it would definitely require a lot of troops, not just to defeat the invading enemy.

Seeing him nodding, Emperor Chongzhen immediately went on to say: "But according to the news that Sun Chuanting gave me, according to the previous deployment, it may take more than two years to fight steadily. There is another one, that is, the imperial army, who has really tried his best." , but the environment is not acclimatized, and the number of non-combat attrition is still relatively large!"

Hearing this, Liu Weichao didn't think too much, and immediately suggested: "Hasn't it already occupied most of Guizhou? You can ask Sun Chuanting to use the locals as the source of soldiers to form a new army. Anyway, one of the characteristics of firearms soldiers is that Form an army quickly! Besides, to continue to expand the territory and expand the territory to the Indian Ocean in the future, we need an army that can adapt to the climate there, and it just so happens that we can form it this time."

Most of the troops under Sun Chuanting's command are from the Central Plains, mostly in Qin, Henan, and Hebei.It is easy to understand that they are not adapted to the climate of Yunnan-Guizhou and Dongwu (Myanmar).

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he nodded immediately and said, "Yes, I will definitely not be able to spare Dongwu, and I have to make some preparations."

Dongwu took advantage of the weakness of Ming Dynasty and sent troops to invade the border of Yunnan.

Originally, Da Ming had counterattacked and severely taught Dong Wu a lesson.

However, the three major expeditions in Wanli consumed the financial and military resources of the imperial court, so that when Jianlu rose, he had to mobilize troops from all over the country to conquer Jianlu.

At that time, Liu Ting of Megatron Dongwu was transferred away, and died in the battle of Sarhu.

On Dongwu's side, they took the opportunity to invade the border of Yunnan again, occupying Mubang and other state capitals, which are still in Dongwu's hands.

Since Emperor Chongzhen wanted to be the master of Zhongxing, if these lost territories were not brought back, then what kind of master of Zhongxing would he be!
Not only did he want to take it back, but he also wanted to destroy Dongwu, expand Ming's territory in the southwest to the Indian Ocean, and have a new outlet to extend its power closer to the Middle East.

This plan was discussed with Liu Weichao, and it must be done in the future.

At this time, after listening to Liu Weichao's reminder, Emperor Chongzhen naturally agreed: "That king of Shu is too disrespectful to me. Last time there was a chaos in Shu, he only paid a little money. Seeing Zuo Liangyu's branch After the rebels were wiped out, they refused to pay. Then let him pay for the money and rations for the formation of the new army this time, otherwise, I will clean him up!"

Although he is rich now, the King of Shu is the richest man in the world, and he has long been thinking about that money.Sun Chuanting used the money to form a new army; but at the same time, he also wanted Ma Shiying in Shu to form a new army. He didn't want to spend the money there, and let the King of Shu pay.

At this time, he was regarded as a person who had died once, and he had long since put aside the face of his relatives.If you don't give me face, I will give you face, that's the idea.

Of course, it's hard to say whether you are used to stroking wool or not.

Liu Weichao didn't mind at all that he put his mind on that Shu king.These feudal kings, according to what I said before, are going to go overseas, so we can't let them take their wealth out of China!
