Chapter 800 A lot of questions (plus more)
early morning.

The atmosphere in the court was not right that day, Yang Tinghe, Jiang Mian and others came very late, and when the foothold was not stable, Peng Ze, Minister of the Ministry of War, hurried to Yang Tinghe's side and informed Yang Tinghe of the emergency report on the southeast coast.

"...The two envoy teams of the Japanese kingdom had a dispute over tribute, and burned, killed and looted Ningbo and the surrounding areas. The commander of the guards envoy Yuan Ban and Liu Si of the hundred households were captured. Hu Yuan of the hundred households led troops to fight against the Japanese and was unfortunately killed. ..."

The battle for tribute broke out.

It's only the initial stage now, the Japanese people are killing each other while looting the Daming City at the same time.

It is the local soldiers and civilians who suffer.

Yang Tinghe's face was very ugly when he heard the news.

Previously, the emperor increased the budget for southeast coastal defense affairs, and specifically mentioned that two groups of envoys from the Wa Kingdom would go to Ningbo to pay tribute. At that time, he also mentioned that there might be disputes, just like what happened today, I don’t know. It would be thought that someone instigated the Wa people to do this.

But actually...

The emperor is in the capital, how can there be instigation?
This is a bit of a prophetic meaning.

Regarding the troubles caused by Japanese pirates, the court deliberations failed to come up with results.

One sentence explains why in the battle to pacify King Ning, Wang Shouren did not go head-on with King Ning's soldiers and horses, but chose to go around the back.

When the emperor said earlier, no one took it seriously, but now that it really happened, what's the use of talking nonsense?

Or because the emperor's proposition was not adopted by the courtiers, which finally led to today's disaster, the emperor is angry and doesn't want to talk nonsense with you.

Sun Jiao was questioned.

At that time, if it was really expected that the local people in Nanjing would use the water army to fight the rebels of King Ning, it would be hard to predict who would win and who would lose.

It feels like there are moths eating the pillars and beams of the Ming Dynasty, but as the specific person in charge, he doesn't even know how to get rid of the moths, allowing the moths to do whatever they want.

Therefore, Wang Shouren went overland to besiege Nanchang first, and then came to siege the city to fight for aid, so that the rebellion of King Ning was put down early.

Needless to say, Fei Hong, who didn't know that Zhu Si would be furious?
This was the case when the emperor issued a warning in advance. The budget reduction in the Southeast Coast was proposed by Sun Jiao and approved by Yang Tinghe. At that time, Zhu Si also specifically consulted Yang Tinghe’s opinion. Nothing will happen, so...

Sun Jiao didn't expect that things would develop to this point one day. If he had known this, he would not have argued against the emperor's increase in Eastern coastal defense costs.

Jiang Mian came over and asked with a serious face: "Are the local troops so vulnerable? How many troops do the Japanese have?"

Peng Ze thought to himself, who wouldn't know how to say clichés?

……

Yang Tinghe was slightly taken aback after hearing this.

But the Ministry of War is under a lot of pressure, because the heavy responsibility of eradicating the robbery is now in the Ministry of War, and because the Northern Ministry of War is a bit far away from the incident, it is obviously beyond the reach of the troops, and Wang Shouren, the formerly powerful Shangshu of the Ministry of War in Nanjing, is now He went back to his hometown to defend the system, and now the minister of the Southern Military Department is Tao Yan, a veteran minister from the water transport, and he expects Tao Yan to send troops to quell the Japanese plague?

The ministers present did not know what to say.

Aren't you very capable, Peng Ze?Previously in the northwest, it was said that you could be tied with Wang Qiong, and that Wang Qiong was jealous of your ability and suppressed you!
But now you can't count on you in the northwest, and if something bad happens in the southeast, you are still helpless, so you are still on the same level as Wang Qiong?
Wang Qiong can recommend Wang Shouren casually, and everyone will praise him, how about you?Your subordinates are full of people like Chen Jiuchou, so how can such a wimp entrust you with such a heavy responsibility?

……

Because it was an urgent battle report, many follow-up situations were not heard. It is not even known whether the Japanese pirates have run away, continue to cause trouble, or have been arrested.

……

Zhu Si suddenly looked at Sun Jiao: "In Zhejiang Province, do you have enough food, grass, supplies, etc. in Pingwa, the local guards where the Japanese were prepared, and the Qianhu Office?"

Does this still need to be reminded?
If the emperor does not give an order, how can the local government and the guards sit idly by?

Yang Tinghe said: "The Ministry of War ordered all provinces in Zhejiang to guard against death, prevent the Japanese from invading our state capital, and concentrate troops and horses to wipe out the thieves. Is it necessary for me to remind you?"

"This……"

"Then put down the Japanese pirates' rebellion as soon as possible. I have greeted Nanjing before, but with little success. No matter how the local banditry evolves, it will not affect the stability of Jiangnan's tax-heavy land. In addition, the guards need to increase their troops to stop it. We cannot allow the Japanese pirates to escape from the sea after their looting! Since they dare to commit crimes in Daming territory, let them come and go!"

Because King Ning's main force was traveling by water, and there were thousands of warships, if it was a direct water battle, Wang Shouren had no chance of winning.

Can anyone really predict this kind of thing?

Next to him, Liu Chun asked: "Didn't the Ming Dynasty always have a tradition of preparing for Japanese in the southeast? There are guards for preparing for Japanese in various places, but why is there even a lack of warships...?"

Sun Jiao was filled with remorse and reluctantly said, "Probably enough."

Peng Ze, Minister of the Ministry of War, has a big head.

Don't talk about encirclement and suppression, just talk about how to prevent problems before they happen?Everything has already happened, so be careful!

In order to reduce the responsibilities in this incident, the local government tried their best to report the number of Japanese people as high as possible, but the actual situation is how many people can be loaded in a few tribute ships?
This creates inconsistencies in the message.

When Zhu Si heard the report, his tone was still calm: "I have said long ago that the Japanese know small rituals but have no great righteousness. They are afraid of power but not virtuous. They are also beasts. The flow of my heavenly dynasty into the Japanese country will be several times the profit if it changes hands. , They will definitely fight among themselves for the right to trade, but this time the disaster will extend to our Daming territory, it is really abominable."

Because Jiang Mian said this sentence suddenly, the few people who walked out together fell into deep thought for a moment.

Zhu Si let out harsh words.

There seems to be such a rumor, but did the emperor bring it up at the court meeting?But if the emperor didn't mention it, where did he hear that Daming was building a ship?
At this time, Sun Jiao followed quickly with a dark face, and asked as he walked: "Everyone, do you want to prepare warships? The old man has heard that when Tang Bohu supervised the mines in Xishan, they allocated a lot of money, food and materials to Sanwei, Tianjin. , preparing to build a shipyard, and then there was a problem with the southeast coast defense. His Majesty once proposed to increase the shipbuilding funds in the Ministry of Accounts, but was rejected by...

The southeast coastal guards of the Ming Dynasty have not experienced war for more than a century. The soldiers are mainly responsible for cultivating the land on weekdays, which is very different from the warriors in the Japanese country who made coups every day and drew their swords at every turn. Organized, you can launch a counterattack at any time and let the Japanese drink a pot.

I only know that the local government is now organizing soldiers and horses of the guards to chase and kill. It seems that the harvest is not very big. After all, there is a two-day break in the news. Even if there is a delay, it means that at least two days after the incident, the Japanese pirates were not caught Fa-rectification.

There are not many Japanese, and they are afraid of the counterattack of the Ming army, so their actions are quite secretive. However, the individual combat ability of the Japanese is much stronger than that of the guards on the southeast coast, which makes them invincible around Ningbo. relaxation related.

At the end of the court meeting, Peng Ze ran to Yang Tinghe to ask for advice, regardless of the face of his Minister of War.

Now Sun Jiao is almost tied to the same boat as Yang Tinghe.

……

Seeing Peng Ze's useless appearance, Yang Tinghe felt angry.

In addition to this matter, Yang Tinghe once stood up and took care of everything. Whoever speaks out is slapping Yang Tinghe in the face, so no matter whether he has any opinions in his heart, he chooses to remain silent.

Remind the emperor to send troops to encircle and suppress?

Peng Ze was not easy to answer.

Run to the Ming Dynasty to play wild, want to run after looting?Even if things can't be avoided, at least they can't be allowed to evacuate smoothly, catch people back, kill them as an example to others!
"Okay, let's talk about other things... After this matter has a result, come back to me!"

The problem of Japanese pirates in Ningbo became the first topic of discussion.

Jiang Mian said: "Huh? I seem to remember that His Majesty once mentioned... shipbuilding?"

Because the report in Ningbo was also very confusing, probably because the situation of the Japanese people was not clear. Most of the wars took place at night. The Japanese people used the cover of night to complete the burning, killing and looting.

Peng Ze smiled wryly: "My Ming Navy has not experienced a water battle for decades. In the past few years, King Ning rebelled, and Nanjing couldn't dispatch enough ships to prepare for the war. It is still up to Nanchang to prepare civilian ships. If we had to fight in the water then, I'm afraid..."

Of course, the combat effectiveness of King Ning's rebel army was indeed weak. Siege of cities and territories was not their forte, and they could not defeat Anqing, which was also the main reason for the rapid failure of the rebellion.

"However, I have heard about the shipbuilding in Tianjin and have never stopped. If it goes well... there should be some warships that can go into battle now, right?"

Fei Hong said: "I'm afraid His Majesty will use this matter to attack us today, it's better to deal with it as soon as possible."

Zhu Si was a little impatient.

If anyone insists on mentioning it, it is tantamount to running into the muzzle of a gun. If you have the guts, just hit one and try!
The cabinet represented by Yang Tinghe, Qiao Yu and other six ministers are all pretending to be dumb. Who would dare to poke this hornet's nest at this time?

in the hall.

I don't know to directly order the local government to destroy it?But the question is, why did it happen?Who should coordinate the localities?Who will coordinate?Did you listen to Nanjing, or did you listen to the command and envoy of Zhejiang?At the local level, should the local magistrates be used to coordinate the people, or should the censors be used to coordinate?Should the inspection department send troops?If Nanjing's garrison comes forward to coordinate, will they listen?
Peng Ze said: "Send troops nearby, this can be arranged by the Ministry of War, but now the situation of the Japanese is unknown, and their movements are also unknown. If they retreat directly to the seaside and set sail to the sea, should they dispatch ships from Nanjing to intercept them? Our Daming Navy lacks warships. of."

As soon as Sun Jiao's words came out, several people present couldn't help shouting "Fuck".

The emperor is so prescient?
Originally, you only thought you were talking, but you even took actual actions?

The pressure on the defense of the southeast coast only started last year. It was said that the ship was going to be built, but the imperial court hadn't approved it yet. So the emperor planned ahead and sent people to build the ship first?

If the court doesn't allocate money, the emperor pays for it himself?
Although it is said that warships may not be produced now, but this kind of awareness of preventing problems before they happen is really not comparable to ordinary idiot emperors.

　The second is sent, the emperor asks for subscription and monthly ticket support!thank you!
