Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 362

The next day.

Qianqing Palace.

"Today I summoned all the ministers to the palace to hold this royal court meeting because I want to talk about matters in Liaodong."

Zhu Youxiao sat on the throne, looked around at the ministers gathered in front of the emperor, and said calmly: "Since the victory of Liaozuo, the Liao Bureau has become relatively stable compared to before, and Jianlu's arrogance has been suppressed. According to the situation reported by Yousi, the situation in Liaohetao, Horqin and other places has changed greatly."

"Although in the previous battle, our army defeated the invading Jianlu, we still cannot be careless when it comes to Liaodong affairs. Some arrangements for Liaodong must also be adjusted based on the actual situation in the border areas."

Since the end of the Liaozuo War, around the black land of Liaodong, not only the Ming Dynasty has been making corresponding adjustments to sort out the chaotic order of the past, eliminate some of the accumulated evils, and exchange for order and stability in the entire Liaodong region.

The defeated Jianlu Eight Banners were also on the move.

The top Jianlu leaders, headed by Nurhaci, have been running around to ensure that the invasion of Liaozuo is defeated and the subsequent adverse effects can be minimized.

Liaodong is a treasure land that contains countless possibilities. In a sense, it is an important place for the competition between the Ming Dynasty and the Jianlu. During this period, there were also various Mongolian and Tatar tribes. If one side makes progress, it means that the other side must retreat!

Zhu Youxiao never thought of giving up Liaodong. He not only wanted to use Jianlu as a whetstone to continuously hone the Ming army, but also wanted to develop and govern Liaodong and build Liaodong into the granary of the Ming Dynasty.

at the same time.

It is also necessary to make use of the rich mineral deposits under the rule to enable Liaodong to gradually build an intensive handicraft manufacturing industry, laying a very solid foundation for the future to sweep across Northeast Asia and completely conquer the Monan Mongolian Tatar tribes, vassal Korea, Japanese islands and other places. .

However, in order to realize this strategic plan, the prerequisite is that Beizhili can develop well and Liaodong can achieve a high grain yield.

Only if the above is done well and solidly, the successful experience of Beizhili can be quickly replicated in Liaodong. After several years of population accumulation, Liaodong can achieve rapid development of industries in various fields.

Prior to this, the things to be done in Liaodong were very clear. In addition to carrying out regular operations to defend Liaodong, Liaodong also had to gradually clarify the local order, promote water diversion for rice cultivation, innovate farming technology, exploit various mineral deposits under the control, and actively build external relations. The sea trade port gradually achieves self-sufficiency, and at the same time accepts bankrupt groups within the customs...

Therefore, this imperial court meeting for Liaodong is very important for the future of Liaodong. After this court meeting is over, it is understood that the governor of Liaodong, the governor of Liaodong and other local officials will not be adjusted before the five years of Apocalypse. They will They will do their best in their respective positions according to the needs at different levels!

Of course, Zhu Youxiao did not tell Central Committee Yousi about many of the above-mentioned ideas and plans. If one more person knew about it, there would be an additional layer of variables.

For important strategic deployments such as this, Zhu Youxiao, the emperor of tomorrow, can directly communicate with the selected important officials of Liaodong Yousi.

Liaodong must eliminate complexity and simplify, otherwise anyone can interfere with Liao Affairs and the Liao Bureau, then whose advice should be listened to in the end?

After listening to what the emperor said, the cabinet ministers staying in Dongnuang Pavilion, as well as Cui Jingrong, the Minister of Civil Affairs, got a lot of memorials and files related to Liaodong. This also made everyone understand that some adjustments to Liaodong were made. The emperor had made various preparations in advance.

"I think your Majesty is right."

Cui Jingrong, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, put down the memorial he was holding, stepped forward to bow and said: "Previously, the situation in Liaodong was unstable. In addition, there were many things happening in the DPRK. As a result, Liao affairs were not properly resolved as before."

"Now the situation is different. Since the great victory in Liaozuo, the rebels who have always been rampant have not dared to invade easily, and the order in Liaodong has also become stable. I believe that the previously pending governorship and the lack of officials in Liaodong should be replaced as soon as possible. We will make a clear selection so that Liaodong can reach a higher level, and then take the initiative to suppress the Jianlu rebellion and demonstrate our power towards heaven!"

Just your mouth can speak.

After hearing what Cui Jingrong said, Sun Ruyou, who was standing nearby, showed a look of contempt, while other cabinet ministers present showed different expressions. Speaking of which, many officials, including the governor of Liaodong, have not been supplemented until now. This is directly related to Zhu Youxiao.

the reason is simple.

Zhu Youxiao would rather leave these positions empty than ask a bunch of mediocre people who don't understand military politics to go to this special area of ​​Liaodong to cause harm.

After all, Liaodong's current relative stability was achieved with the lives and blood of countless athletes during the Liaozuo War.

It is impossible for Zhu Youxiao to let some mediocre people make trouble for Xiong Tingbi when nothing happens, or secretly impose constraints and schemes.

This also led to many matters in Liaodong. Xiong Tingbi could directly submit secret reports to the emperor. Many urgent reports involving Liao affairs were sent to the Military Academy first, and before the Military Academy had no special appointment, they were sent to the study room first.

But then again, the emergency period of maintaining order in Liaodong and initially screening the pattern of Liaodong has passed smoothly. If Liaodong wants to have new development and opportunities, it must adjust the local power structure. A Liaodong Economic and Strategic Office alone is not enough!

"What the Qing family said is exactly what I am concerned about."

Following Cui Jingrong's words, Zhu Youxiao leaned on the cushions and said calmly: "In view of this special situation, I intend to change the Liaodong Economic Strategy to the Governor. From now on, the Governor of Liaodong Rongzheng will be fully responsible for all matters of suppressing the captives. This position will still be held by Xiong Tingbi. Personally, as for the post of governor of Liaodong, I intend to let Hong Chengchou, a doctor in the Qing Dynasty Department directly under the Ministry of Punishment, take up the post."

"When the situation in the left Liao Dynasty suddenly changed, and the Eight Banners invaded fiercely, Hong Chengchou was ordered to go to southern Liaoning to coordinate the transportation of various military supplies before Liao Dynasty. Although he did not direct the operations on the front line, he was in the rear to solve various needs for the front line soldiers. This is a meritorious service.”

"Of course, since Hong Chengchou has been appointed as the governor of Liaodong, I feel that he will not be supervising military affairs for the time being. After all, he has the talent, but he still has to..."

"Your Majesty, I think it's wrong."

Sun Ruyou frowned and stepped forward, and immediately bowed and said: "If a governor is placed in Liaodong, and the governor of Liaodong's military affairs is fully responsible for the pacification of the captives, there will be a conflict with the governor of Jiliao. This is by no means a trivial matter."

"I have no intention of opposing Xiong Tingbi. His previous achievements in Liaozuo are known to both the government and the public. However, the patriarchal etiquette of the imperial court is laid out here. It seems that such important matters cannot be so vague and confused."

"Furthermore, Hong Chengchou has made outstanding achievements in the past and can be promoted to the position of governor of Liaodong. Even if he is not appointed as admiral of military affairs for the time being, it may cause quite a controversy."

"My minister agrees."

"My minister agrees."

Zhu Guozuo and He Zongyan stepped forward to second the proposal.

The imperial court meeting in front of them seems to be discussing matters in Liaodong, but it will also involve other places, and the first one to bear the brunt is the governor of Ji Liao.

After all, the Ming Dynasty had certain problems with certain local officials when they were first established. However, as time went by and changes occurred in certain areas, these problems were ignored.

However, for Zhu Youxiao, he has to start solving these problems and clarify certain boundaries of authority. If these hidden dangers are not solved, big problems will occur sooner or later.

What Zhu Youxiao wants is not to patch up patches, but to effectively solve practical problems. Therefore, the local power structure must be adjusted gradually, so as to achieve the effect of better troops and simpler administration and improve administrative efficiency...
