Sir, you have to pay more

Jia Liu was angry.

Before he became an emperor, someone bullied him, and now he is an emperor, and there are still people who bully him, superficially support him, but actually treat him as a big fat, and everyone wants to take a bite, so he is an emperor for nothing.

Do you really think that his Restoration Dynasty came to build a country peacefully!
"There are now two delegations from Zhejiang. Which delegation do you think I signed the contract with?"

Jia Liu pointed out that the current situation in Zhejiang is beneficial to the imperial court, which is the two delegations.

If there is only one delegation from Zhejiang, it means that the various factions in Zhejiang Province have reached an agreement, and this delegation is indeed here on behalf of the officials and gentry in Zhejiang Province.

In this way, for the sake of the overall situation, Jia Liu might really sign it.

Anyway, if you have too many lice, you don't itch, and if you have too many debts, you don't worry.

As Lao Bo said, kill them when the wings are hard.

However, the two delegations went to Xiangyang successively, which shows that Zhejiang Province is not monolithic, but has formed the Han School headed by Zhejiang Governor Wang Danwang and the Manchu School headed by Hangzhou General Cheng De.

The two factions are a little confused about the situation now, and they both want to dominate Zhejiang, so each of the lions opened their mouths to get the maximum profit from the new emperor.

Therefore, they must be made aware of the facts.

The method is very simple, Jia Liu asked Lao Li to come forward to reveal the existence of each other to both parties.

To this end, a vivid metaphor is given.

For example, if there is only one pork shop in the city, the common people can only buy meat from this one, but if another butcher shop opens across the street, the common people will naturally have more choices.

"If I want to build a garden, if there is only one construction team, no matter what price they offer, I can only hand it over to them no matter how dissatisfied I am. But if there are two construction teams, and they all want to take over my project, what do you think I should do? Do?"

Jia Liu breathed out a smoke ring in one breath.

After finally becoming Party A's father, and being bullied by the contractors, he might as well throw himself into the river.

The two guild leaders are both human beings, and they immediately understood what the emperor meant.

It is to let the two delegations bid against each other.

Whoever offers the lowest price will do the project.

what project?
Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang.

"Talk to them, talk slowly, let them hand over the plan, delay them, don't give a clear answer, anyway, I'm not in a hurry, I don't care if they Zhejiang attend or don't attend the Congress of Hundred Officials and Clans."

After finishing the order, Jia Liu called the attendant and said, "Yang, Liu."

"Whoo!"

The attendant hurriedly took a pen to record, but seeing His Majesty the Emperor walk to the door, looking at the starry sky and pondering for a moment, he said, "Xiaochunzi, Ade, how is the development in Taiwan, everything is okay?"

pause.

"Currently, are you sure that your naval forces are able to resist the Qing army in Fujian and at the same time draw out a force to attack the coast of Zhejiang? Do you have the favorable conditions for landing operations, and are you sure you can advance deep into the enemy after landing and gain one or two points? A big city, such as Ningbo, Wenzhou and other places.

If these conditions are met, can we march towards Hangzhou?If you are not sure about attacking Hangzhou, you can stop it yourself without asking for instructions. "

After finishing speaking, he thought for a while, and continued: "I have already asked you to prepare for the battle of crossing the sea and landing, and there will inevitably be many difficulties in this battle, but you must find a way to solve it, and don't limit yourself in thought.

The importance of the navy lies in its flexibility and maneuverability, because it can launch a landing operation in any of the enemy's coastal areas, or destroy the enemy's navy, or harass the enemy's coast, or occupy one or two bases.

After receiving the power, you should discuss carefully. If you can launch the Zhejiang campaign, you must first carefully study the enemy's situation, terrain, food, etc. along the coast of Zhejiang, and fully explain the purpose of the operation to the troops, so as to encourage and strengthen their enterprising will and firm their determination. "

Speaking of this, he said in a worried tone: "There is an anti-Qing basis in the coastal areas of Fujian, but the anti-Qing thinking of the people along the coast of Zhejiang is weak, and the local gentry and slaves have serious thinking. After you land, you may encounter strong local opposition.

In this regard, we must be mentally prepared, and we can focus on attacking the power of officials and gentry, but remember not to massacre the city, let alone kill the people at will.Wherever the troops arrive, we must ensure fair sales and not let the market be depressed. This point must be paid special attention to. "

Back at the desk, Jia Liu ordered to record again.

"It's May now, and it may be July when the letter arrives at your place. Will we be able to start crossing the sea in August at the latest?
You must ask the fishermen about the wind direction and ocean currents in detail, and ask more guides. After occupying Zhejiang, I will ask the Jiangsu side to give you some food, grass and military support, and then you can change your flag.As for the specific combat plan, I hope you will consider it carefully and come up with a general plan report, but you don't need to wait for my notice, and decide the date of dispatching troops by yourself. "

After a short pause, "In addition, I have ascended the throne in Xiangyang and proclaimed myself emperor. The Fujian side has not yet sent people to surrender. They may be hostile to me. Please know."

After saying that, he waved his hand and ordered the attendant to immediately send the telegram to Taiwan through a secret channel.

Turn around and look at the two presidents again.

One was shocked and the other was full of admiration.

Chairman Li was shocked, because he didn't know that the anti-Qing uprising in Taiwan's Tiandihui was actually managed by the emperor.

The leader was Xiaochunzi, who the emperor used to bring with him and liked to hold a stick.

What I admire is of course the father-in-law who has cleared his quota: the emperor of the Qing Dynasty deserves his son-in-law, because no one is more loyal to the Qing Dynasty than him.

"Since your majesty asked the minister to talk with the two families, why do you want to?"

Didn't Chairman Li mean that the two bids? Whoever bids the lowest will be the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang. Why did the emperor arrange for Taiwan to attack the coast of Zhejiang and even Hangzhou?

"I don't want to give it to the Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, but I also want it from Zhejiang."

The answer given by Jia Liu is simple and clear.

Because Zhejiang will be an important transit point for the Qing Dynasty's international ocean trade, how can Wang Danwang and Cheng De be privately owned, and it is even more impossible to give them the key position of governor of Fujian and Zhejiang.

It would be better for Yang Yuchun and Liu De to win Zhejiang directly, but if they fail to win, it will put great military pressure on Hangzhou. At that time, whether it is Wang Danwang or Cheng De, they will have to come to ask themselves the emperor.

After dealing with the matter in Zhejiang, Jia Liu came to a very secluded small courtyard of the Governor's Mansion.

Guards in yellow jackets are on duty at the gate, which shows that there are important figures in the courtyard.

"See the emperor!"

Several guards knelt down to salute at the same time, Jia Liu hummed, and looked at Baozhu after entering the courtyard.

The latter immediately went to a room and brought one person out.

It was He Shen.

Seeing that it was Guizi Liu who came to see him, He Shen snorted slightly and turned around, but he didn't want to look at the robber.

Seeing this, Bao Zhu wanted to reprimand him angrily, but was waved by the President to stop him.

"Brother He, I came to see you this time for no other purpose than to tell Brother He that you can return to Beijing now."

Jia Liu still had a slight smile on his face.

"Let me go back to Beijing?"

He Shen's heart moved, and he turned his face to look suspiciously at his good brother Dongge.

"Why, Brother He, do you think I'm going to imprison you for the rest of your life? No way, no way,"

Jia Liu smiled softly, "But I need to trouble Brother He to bring me a gift for Qianlong."

He Shen muffled: "What?"

Jia Liu nodded, and ordered outside the courtyard: "Bring it in."

A guard immediately walked into the courtyard with a box in his hands.

He Shen couldn't help being surprised, wondering what the devil Liu asked him to bring to the emperor.

Jia Liu waved his hand: "Open it and let He Zhongtang take a look."

"Whoo!"

The guard opened the box in response, and then saw He Shen's body trembling. It turned out that the box was actually the head of the fourth elder brother Yongxuan.
