Eighth year of Chongzhen

Chapter 878
At the level of Li Huaipu, he already has the right to know the important and important events of the imperial court.

For example, the actions of the Ming army in Japan this time, after the relevant news is sent back to the country, the imperial court will issue it in the form of a notification to the senior officials above the fourth rank in a timely manner, and use this conscious action to cultivate the overall situation of the senior officials. At the same time, more court officials can gain a sense of honor to participate in government affairs, and enhance the cohesion and centripetal force of the court.

Li Huaipu said frankly in the title book that if the imperial court wants to run Japan well, it is best to rely on external forces to create irreconcilable contradictions in the country, so that the personnel stationed in the Ming Dynasty can play the role of mediators and arbitrators in it. Make one side bigger and maintain the balance of its domestic situation to highlight the importance of Ming Dynasty.

The large number of immigrants from Jiaozhi to Japan can also prevent the Ming Dynasty from repeating the failure of setting up a chief envoy in Jiaozhi during Chengzu's reign, and let the Ming people become the real masters of the northern part of Jiaozhi, so that long-term stability can be achieved.

Li Huaipu's plan is a bit like "using barbarians to control barbarians" in a later dynasty. Although this strategy failed at the time due to the decline of national power, the current Ming Dynasty's national power is in an extremely strong position, so there is still great hope that this strategy will be successful.

This will test the political wisdom of the Ming officials stationed in Japan. As long as the fire and timing are properly grasped, it will be easier to control the overall situation in Japan.

Although Li Huaipu did not clearly explain what specific measures should be taken, the big bosses in the court are all elite officials who use methods. How can they not understand that there is no clear meaning in the question book.

With the cunning and vicious habits of the Cochin people, when they are immigrated to Japan, they will definitely have conflicts and conflicts with the locals. Once the conflict between the two sides intensifies, many people are killed and injured, and the situation is turbulent, then the armed forces in Japan After being dismissed, only the Ming garrison can play a role in maintaining social stability. As long as they use a little tricks, neither side can make big waves.

However, if this is the case, the number of intertwined immigrants cannot be too small, and they cannot be scattered and resettled. Only when this ethnic group forms a large number of resettlement areas can the Japanese locals feel threatened.

Li Huaipu's strategy was widely endorsed by important cabinet ministers. After reading it, Zhu Youjian also appreciated it, and at the same time expressed his recognition of the minister's ability.

On the proposal of this question book, the cabinet put forward a more comprehensive strategy.

The cabinet ministers believe that Li Huaipu's strategy is feasible, but don't rush to implement it.

Now the situation in Japan has not been completely stabilized. After all, Ming and Japan are separated by the East China Sea, so it is extremely inconvenient to transmit information. Although the crown prince signed the "Hirado Treaty" with the new Japanese shogunate, the specific operation will not see the effect overnight.

Especially for disarmament, there should be a lot of resistance in the middle. It may take a lot of hands and feet for the Ming government army to wipe out the famous names in various places. This process may take more than a year.

If this is the case, then the Guangxi chief envoy can make preparations first, and start the relocation work when the time is right.

The most important thing about this kind of preparation is to screen the Cochin people and list those stubborn households, while the docile and obedient ones will be kept in the local area.

There is no need to be too gentle in the way of migration. The food and materials needed can be brought by the immigrants. Anyway, if they are moving, the Cochin people will of course take all their belongings with them.

At that time, I will tell the Cochin people that they will be moved to the mainland of Ming Dynasty so that they can live a better life. As long as they get to the port and board the boat, they will not be left alone.

The General Soldier of Guangxi will send soldiers to be responsible for the whole process of armed escort. If there are troublemakers on the road, they will be beheaded on the spot. I believe that iron and blood will make the Cochin people learn to behave.

The total number of immigrants is preliminarily set at around 30, and it is advisable for the number of people to be around [-] households at a time. Too many migrations at one time will bring considerable pressure to all parties.

If there are 30 households, the population should be around [-]. As long as the first team leaves five days after the second team picks up, and this kind of uninterrupted relocation, Dingkou of about [-] people will be able to move out in about two years.

With the super reproductive ability of the Cochin people, the population of around 30 seems small, but after decades, they will be able to reproduce several times in foreign countries. As for how many people can reach in the future, it depends on history This is something that Zhu Youjian cannot predict, and there is no way to control it.

The cabinet’s vote proposed that before starting a single one, the Guangxi government army should look for an opportunity to launch an attack on the Zheng’s lair entrenched in Thang Long Mansion, trying to destroy it in one fell swoop, and completely eliminate the threat posed by the Zheng’s group’s armed forces to the Ming immigrants. and hidden dangers.

In the past two years, the Guangxi government army and the soldiers of Zheng's group have been fighting continuously. With their fierce martial arts skills, strong adaptability to terrain and climate, and with the blessing of new guns, the wolf soldiers have given Zheng's soldiers Major damage.

According to rough statistics, after dozens of battles, the officers and soldiers have killed and wounded more than ten thousand Zheng's soldiers. With the passage of time, the Zheng's group's financial resources are almost exhausted. Large-scale armed counterattack.

Based on this point, Zheng's cabinet suggested that the emperor order Huang Zhen, the commander-in-chief of Guangxi, to select capable men and launch a surprise attack on Shenglong Mansion, trying to catch all the important people of Zheng's lineage, which would seriously damage his vitality and make him unable to fight with him any more. Daming fights.

The cabinet ministers believed that after the Zheng family suffered a devastating blow, the Ruan family in South Jiaozhi would definitely take the opportunity to seize the land occupied by the Zheng family, and the Zheng family had ruled in the North Jiaozhi for many years and had a strong foundation and connections. The Ruan family will be allowed to do whatever they want, and the two sides will definitely go to war because of this. Then it will be difficult for the Zheng family to pose a threat to the newly occupied land of Ming Dynasty.

It was Lu Xiangsheng, the second assistant, who proposed to order the Guangxi government army to raid Zheng's lair, and his inspiration came from the "beheading plan" adopted by Li Dingguo in Japan.

After learning that Li Dingguo's brand-new combat plan was a great success, several important ministers in the cabinet, Sun Chuanting and Lu Xiangsheng, all appreciated this strategy, and even Chen Qiyu, who seldom boasted, also expressed his appreciation for this plan meaning.

These important ministers all praised Li Dingguo, a rising star in the army, and believed that this battle was similar to Li Jing's surprise attack on the Turkic royal court in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. In fact, it is said in the Art of War that the essence of using soldiers is the essence of one heart.

Chen Qiyu even suggested to Zhu Youjian that if there is a large-scale war in the future, this son must be sent as commander in chief, and the ending will definitely not disappoint the emperor.

　Thanks to Wang Xiaoxiao Yiran and Lan Shuyue for their rewards.
