Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 1187 The Emperor Calls
Although Lu Wang is just a selfish young boy, and his political level is indeed not very good, but as the saying goes, "a wise man will lose a lot of worries; a fool will gain a lot of worries." He just said it right: Gao Yushi has been Zhu Yijun's companion for ten years, and Zhu Yijun's understanding of Gao Yushi is far better than others.

Zhu Yijun almost fully guessed Gao Yushi's intentions in doing this. He was indeed "doing multiple things with one stroke", and generally speaking, he was almost comprehensive, and no matter who he was, he should be grateful to him.

This is very pragmatic, because he has always been good at balancing the interests of all parties, and he can always hit the nail on the head under the chaos that others can't figure out.It's just...Zhu Yijun is not Zhu Yijun, nor Queen Mother Li, or Li Wenjin. He needs to think more comprehensively and in the long run, so he still has certain doubts about this highly pragmatic approach for the time being.

Zhu Yijun didn't doubt Gao Pragmatism's motives, and also believed that Gao Pragmatism could ensure the future income of the small island. For the time being, King Lu would definitely not suffer a loss if he gave up King Jing's legacy and switched to the small island.

But Zhu Yijun believes that all of this is based on Gao Pragmatism.Only Gao Yushi can guarantee the income of this small island, so what if Gao Yushi is no longer there?After all, he is not a god, nor can he live forever!
Who can guarantee that Gao Pragmatic's son also has the skills of his father?

The purpose of establishing a system of feudal kings is to let this feudal family enjoy wealth and honor forever, and the significance of giving land and property lies in this.But if Gao Pragmatic's approach is followed, then the nature of the industry that Lu Wang's family will live and live in in the future will change, from stable land income to unpredictable commercial income.

Still the same sentence, Gao Pragmatic, this exchange must be cost-effective, because no one dares to doubt Gao Pragmatic's business vision.But once Gao Yushi is gone, can the Luwang family really enjoy wealth forever by relying on this kind of commercial income?No one can guarantee this, not even Zhu Yijun.

It should be said that Zhu Yijun is still very concerned about his own brother, as long as he does not threaten the throne, Zhu Yijun is still willing to plan more for him.

Besides, if the Lu-Wang lineage were really impoverished because of this exchange in the future, I am afraid that Zhu Yijun, the emperor's elder brother, would still be blamed for his short-sightedness, which is of course unacceptable.

Now Zhu Yijun not only wants to rejuvenate the Ming Dynasty, but also wants to establish the achievements of the Taizu and Chengzu, completely conquer Mongolia, the 200-year-old enemy, and put an end to the northern border forever.Driven by this kind of psychology, Zhu Yijun now attaches great importance to his own reputation, and of course he doesn't want his future "sage king" glory to be affected by the matter of King Lu's property.

It's just... the trouble now is that the idea of ​​high pragmatism will definitely do more good than harm, at least for the time being, and he obviously has good intentions to help him get out of the dilemma, so he really can't refuse.

Zhu Yijun was in a dilemma, and the people sent by the Empress Dowager Cisheng had arrived.Zhu Yijun heard that it was sent by the queen mother, and immediately knew that the queen mother must be doing it for his younger brother, so he immediately announced the eunuch to come in.

The eunuch sent by Empress Dowager Li this time was not a well-known figure, and he didn't say anything else. He just honestly relayed what the Empress Dowager asked him to convey to the emperor, and then retired respectfully.

Zhu Yijun didn't react after listening, and was even a little dazed, or lost in thought.

"Did I think too far?" He asked himself in his heart.

The queen mother and younger brother obviously didn't think about what happened many years later, they only cared about the current income, and the current income... Anyway, if it is pragmatic, then it must be no problem, so the mother queen decided like this?
Zhu Yijun sighed, and could only smile wryly for a while, and thought to himself: I hope it's me who is bothering me.

Shaking his head, Zhu Yijun called Chen Ju in and said: "Tomorrow morning, you go to the Ministry of War to call for Pragmatism to come to the palace, and you say that I want to see him and ask him... well, just say that you want to ask him about the status of the Imperial Guard." thing."

Chen Ju knew that this was just an excuse, but the issue of the ownership of King Jing's inheritance was of great importance, and it was only natural that the emperor refused to announce it to the public immediately, so he quickly agreed.

Early the next morning, Chen Ju personally took people to the Ministry of War to call. Gao Wushi saw that Chen Ju had come in person, and immediately knew that most of the conclusions had been reached in the palace last night—the King Lu's entry into the palace could not be hidden from him, but he did not want to hide it from him. Knowing whether King Lu talked to the Queen Mother alone, or simply went to find his brother.Of course, after King Lu talked to the Queen Mother, it is also possible for the Queen Mother to find the emperor again, which is not much different for Gao Yushi.

The location of the emperor's summoning was still in the Wenhua Palace, and the time was after the lecture, so Gao Yushi could leave a little later. He first looked at the military training plan submitted by Qi Jiguang at the Ministry of War.

This plan was formulated more cautiously. In fact, it is a plan with two contingencies.According to this plan, the Guards should have combat effectiveness around March or April next year at the earliest, and reach the level that can participate in the war.

This time node is obviously relatively early, because the time when Daming can launch a general attack on the Chahar Department will not be earlier than March next year at the earliest-now it is the end of the year, and winter is definitely not suitable for launching troops against Mongolia. After all, even if the Mongols are In winter, you can also leave as you please, and the logistical pressure is not great.

On the other hand, since the Ming army was mainly infantry and equipped with a large number of firearms, the logistical pressure was far greater than that of Mongolia. Therefore, if you want to go out in winter, it is not much different from suicide.Even taking a step back, even if the main force of the Ming army was mainly cavalry, it couldn't compare with the Mongols in logistics.

Therefore, the first contingency of Qi Jiguang's plan is to aim at this earliest time node, and strive to achieve the initial training goal in March and April next year, that is, the level of "worthy of a war".

However, Qi Jiguang also made it clear in this report that if he really participates in the war in March and April next year, then it is best not to serve as the vanguard and the main force to rush forward, but to consider existing as the Chinese army. Only attack when the wind is blowing.As for other times, stability must be the top priority, and remember not to fight promiscuously, otherwise the loss of troops will be small and the loss of morale will be a big deal.

This principle is high and pragmatic, and he is very satisfied, because he knows that the characteristic of the army is that the more victories it fights, the stronger it will be. The difference is almost the same, and the level of equipment is the same. The "ever victorious army" will definitely be able to completely abuse the "every defeated army".

This is also the reason why many troops in later generations obviously have the same standard equipment, but those ace troops with a glorious history are more daring and able to fight than ordinary troops.

Therefore, Qi Jiguang's idea is that once the "early battle" is made, then this war will also become part of the training, and the victory will be used to make the troop progress faster.In order to achieve this goal, caution is necessary, and its requirement is equivalent to "only victory is allowed, not defeat" in some romance novels.

Another contingency of Qi Jiguang's military training plan is the "late war".If the war cannot be launched in March or April next year, no matter what the reason is, the Imperial Guards will not care about those, just improve the training level one by one, and always maintain the state of enlisting when they hear the order.

"When you hear the order, you will levy" is Qi Jiguang's term. In the words of later generations, it probably means "come when you are called, and you can fight when you come."

As for the military training rules written by Qi Jiguang, which is nearly [-] characters long, Gao Yushi has not read them carefully for the time being. He still believes in Qi Jiguang's ability in this aspect—he must be better than a half-baked guy anyway, and he is very self-aware about this.

Regardless of the armed guards under Gao Yushi's command, or the garrison troops in various places in southern Xinjiang, they are all at the level of a first-class strong army. After discussing some tactics, Qi Jiguang was asked to help formulate a training plan according to these tactical ideas.

In other words, he only provided some tactics that history has proven effective, and the corresponding targeted training plans were actually all planned by Qi Jiguang. If you really want to talk about the master of military training, you have to look at Qi Shaobao.

So he wrote a ministry report on behalf of the Ministry of War, agreeing to Qi Jiguang's military training plan.At the same time, he wrote a private letter, asking him to concentrate on training and only need to consider the combat effectiveness of the Guards, not the supply during the war.

Of course, these words are not aimless, but Qi Jiguang must also be able to understand the elegant meaning by listening to the string song: Gao Yushi is implying that if he really fights early, Jinghua will also be able to help him with logistics. To be sure, everyone performed well when they worked together, but if something happened to the government, it would be hard to say anything.

When that time really came, in order to ensure the victory, Gao Yushi would definitely let Jinghua take care of the imperial guards. As for how to settle the account at that time, that can only be discussed at that time.

After returning to the Ministry, Gao Wushi set off to enter the palace.

The Wenhua Palace is the most familiar place in the imperial palace for Gao Yushi, so there is no need to introduce it.At this time, the lecture was over and Zhu Yijun was taking a rest. He heard the eunuchs shout loudly: "Gao Yushi, Minister of Rongzheng, has an audience—" After that, he immediately declared Gao Yushi to enter the palace.

Most of the proper etiquette for monarchs and ministers has always been omitted in the Wenhua Palace. Zhu Yijun directly asked Gao Wu to sit down in the seat where he sat when he was a companion, and then said: "Sincerely, I already know what happened in Lu Wang's Mansion yesterday, but I still want to hear from you."

There must be people from Dongchang and Jinyiwei in Prince Lu's Mansion, there is no doubt about it, of course Gao Wushi knows that Zhu Yijun must know that he went to Prince Lu's Mansion last night.In addition, this kid Lu Wang would not discuss any "secret matters", and held a meeting openly and aboveboard afterwards, then even the specific conversation might be known to the emperor.

However, for Gao Yushi, there is nothing worth concealing about this matter. His original intention was that he didn't want the outside world to make a fuss before the matter was settled. However, there was no need for Zhu Yijun to keep it a secret, so he described yesterday's situation in its entirety. again.

Zhu Yijun nodded slightly after hearing this, and said: "Later, King Lu went to the palace to find his mother, did you know?"

Gao Wushi shook his head, and replied: "The courtiers know about King Lu's entry into the palace, but I don't know what happened after entering the palace."

Zhu Yijun was very satisfied with this answer, especially since Gao Wushi did not hide that he had his own intelligence system in his hands, which showed that he was still loyal to him.

In fact, such things as intelligence systems are not uncommon. There are high-level and pragmatic ones, but does Shenshixing not have them?It's just that Gao Pragmatic is particularly rich, and his Jinghua has a lot of manpower, so he can make a wider and more detailed layout.

The intelligence system of Shenshihang is mainly formed by the officials and disciples of their mind school, which is more limited.But in any case, there is not much difference in nature.

As long as they didn't put their hands directly into the palace, Zhu Yijun could turn a blind eye to these unspoken rules.

Of course, they all have their own "allies" in the palace. This is also an unspoken rule. Zhu Yijun is still too lazy to ask more questions—this kind of thing has happened in all dynasties, and Daming is of course not exempt from it. Out of the ordinary, he just turned a blind eye and closed his eyes like the emperors of all dynasties.

"The Queen Mother and King Lu probably agree with your idea, but..." Zhu Yijun frowned slightly, seemed to hesitate, and said slowly: "Tell me the truth, how long can the future income of the island be guaranteed not to appear?" Big bug?"

Gao Wushi was taken aback for a moment, and asked in surprise, "What does the emperor mean by this?"

Zhu Yijun waved his hand: "It's business, I've heard that even those salt merchants fail in business, you can tell me that if King Lu collects rent on this small island, at least how many years can he guarantee success?" Prosperous? There shouldn't be any accidents in your lifetime, right?"

It was only then that Gao Yushi knew that Zhu Yijun had thought so far, but he raised this question to show that he was indeed a simple "emperor" and still didn't understand business matters.

Li Ka-shing said, "The first factor that determines the value of real estate is the location, the second is the location, and the third is the location."

Some people in later generations thought that the key factor in the rise of "that small island" was the British, but it was not.

The British are of course one of the factors, but historically, the British occupied such a large territory, how many Hong Kongs have come out of them?
The root of its rise lies in the "location", that is, the location advantage. The reason why the British are interested in that place is also because of this.

The high-practical plan is equivalent to developing Hong Kong 200 years in advance, and it uses it as a trade foothold for the Spaniards, which is basically similar to what the British did in the original history.Of course there are differences, but that is mainly in terms of sovereignty, and the nature of trade has not changed much.

"So the emperor is worried about this?" Gao Wushi laughed and shook his head, "Your Majesty, I will not harm King Lu. As long as the small island is developed, Prince Lu's mansion will be given a golden job. It is almost impossible to have a ruined day if it is sold in the land.”

Without waiting for Zhu Yijun to ask again, he paused and continued: "Your Majesty, let me use an analogy: this is like granting the Changlu Salt Farm to Fan Fan permanently. You said, how could Fan Fan be defeated as long as he doesn't have any accidents?" ?”

Zhu Yijun was stunned for a moment and asked, "Are you sure?"

"I am sure."

Zhu Yijun stared into his eyes for a while, finally gave up, nodded and said: "Okay, then I can do as you like. But I have another important thing to ask you today."
