Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 548 Southwest Discussion (2)

Strictly punish the private money making, no matter how many people are killed in Sichuan and Guizhou, there should be no hesitation, otherwise the dignity of the central government will be damaged. Once this matter is hesitant and does not show the vigorous and resolute action it should be, then Just wait for the Ming Dynasty’s economy to collapse!
All the things Zhu Youxiao has done all along have been to re-establish the authority of the Central Committee, from the Hongwan and Yigong cases at the beginning of Yuji's accession to the throne, to the clarification of the Battle of Saarhu case, to the Beizhili Cangchang case, and then to When it comes to the Shandong water transport case, many groups were involved, and countless people were arrested and killed!
Zhu Youxiao worked hard to push forward these important cases against all opinions. He not only wanted to defend the imperial power, but also wanted to use these intimidations to erect the majesty of the central government!

The continuous struggle between parties to fight against dissenters has corrupted more than just the administration of officials. There has been a serious conflict between imperial power and ministerial power, and the authority of the central government has been continuously weakened... These have resulted in the current Ming Dynasty not being as clear-cut as it was in the early Ming Dynasty when faced with some emergencies. Most of them are passing the buck and waiting and watching.

Is this a big deal? !
If a country's ruling class emerges in such a state, big problems will occur sooner or later. People's resentment and disappointment will accumulate too much. If you don't overthrow it, who will overthrow it?

"Clearly sort out the causes and consequences of what happened in Sichuan and Gui, involving the private coining of money, and send a copy to Bi Ziyan, the Minister of Household Affairs."

Zhu Youxiao lifted up his robe sleeves and stared at the map in front of him, "The private coining of money, including the practice of indiscriminate coining, is definitely not possible in places like Sichuan and Guizhou. I'm afraid it can also be found in other places in the Ming Dynasty!"

"What is shown in Sichuan and Guizhou and other places is purely due to the influence of the counter-insurgency war, which makes some people's greed infinitely magnified. After the Sichuan and Guizhou incident is over, I will enlighten the world. I want to see if there is any Having learned from this experience, no one will dare to think about this in the future!”

Zhu Youxiao maintained the counter-insurgency situation in Liaodong, Sichuan and Guizhou and other places not only to temper the new army, to use war to promote certain changes, and to allow the rising war to divert some conflicts. In addition to the above, Zhu Youxiao also hid hidden secrets. This should solve some of the problems and create a strong deterrent!

The Ming Dynasty governed two capitals and thirteen provinces, and its territory was so vast. On these lands, some were barren and some were rich, and the development was extremely uneven.

Even if Zhu Youxiao had three heads and six arms, he would not be able to take care of both sides. It is true that he is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, but he is not the god of the Ming Dynasty, who can travel thousands of miles with just a thought!
"Your Majesty, should this matter be put on hold?"

Wei Guangxu showed concern on his face and expressed his worries, "After all, this matter is still being done. If it leaks out in the center, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble."

"Bi Ziyan is the financial minister of the Ming Dynasty appointed by me. There are some things that I must let him know."

Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and interrupted: "I believe in Bi Ziyan's character. If he doesn't even have this trust, then I will not let him be the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, let alone join the cabinet to assist in government affairs."

There is no need to use people who are suspicious.

This is Zhu Youxiao's principle.

"The minister obeys the order."

Wei Guangxu bowed and bowed.

"Continue to talk about Sichuan Guiping's rebellion."

After settling this matter, Zhu Youxiao continued: "This is a big deal!"

"Your Majesty."

Jin Xuan stepped forward, picked up the baton beside him, and pointed at the map in front of him, "According to the military information reported from Sichuan and Guizhou and other places, Sheni and Anni are currently surrounded. Despite some influence under Sichuan and Gui's rule, The final counterinsurgency never produced the expected results, but overall it was on the good side.”

"However." When talking about this, Jin Xuan changed the subject and said with a serious expression: "According to the military information compiled by the Military Affairs Council, as the situation in Sichuan and Guizhou becomes increasingly clear, it cannot be ruled out that the combination of Luxu and Anni can be , and even during this process, some chieftains under the rule of Sichuan and Guizhou may also participate in the rebellion. "

Zhu Youxiao's expression became solemn.

If we really want to talk about it, compared to the counter-insurgency in Liaodong territory, Zhu Youxiao paid less attention to the suppression of the rebellion in Sichuan and Guizhou. What he did was to give food to grain and money to give money. The intensive manual work planned around Hanzhong The manufacturing industry was not bred purely to solve the frontline military needs. It also concealed Zhu Youxiao's idea of ​​solving the northwest in the future.

One is the southwest and the other is the northwest. These are the most barren areas in the Ming Dynasty, but the positions they occupy are extremely important. Zhu Youxiao cannot abandon these territories.

If he abandons these territories, he will be a sinner through the ages!
Even deep in Zhu Youxiao's heart, he still has the idea of ​​​​fighting out from the southwest and northwest, such as the Yarkand, Snowy Plateau, Oirat and other forces in the northwest region, as well as the Indochina peninsula in the southwest region. Many of the forces are ambitious!
Rather than passively facing conflicts or wars, it is better to plan and deploy as early as possible. After the problems under the Ming Dynasty are initially resolved and the domestic situation becomes stable, war against the above-mentioned regions must be launched!
But all this takes time.

At least the Jianlu and Tusi rebellions have all been resolved, and even the surrounding structure has changed. Then Zhu Youxiao can form a new army based on different regions and use their best fighting methods to coordinate some of the forces in the country to launch such a campaign. War, this can not only further solve internal problems, but also open up territory for the Ming Dynasty!
"There is one more thing that the court should also pay attention to."

Zhang Kentang stepped forward and said: "That is the terrain under Sichuan Gui's rule. Although relying on the existing Chidao can basically meet the needs of the front line to suppress the rebellion, the losses are still too great."

"Aren't Sun Chuanting and the others planning the expansion and construction of Chidao?"

Zhu Youxiao frowned.

"There is expansion and construction."

Zhang Kentang replied: "But if these Chidao want to play their due role, I am afraid that it will be difficult to do so within a few years, and if the internal funds continue to support it like this, it may not be able to sustain it for a long time."

This is the key point that Zhang Kentang wants to talk about.

"What did the young master say here?"

Zhu Youxiao turned around and looked at the ministers of the Military Academy.

At this time, Wei Guangxu and Jin Xuan lowered their heads.

Since Zhu Youxiao Yuji came to the throne, he has cut off all matters concerning the transfer of internal funds to external sources without exception. If he wants to raise some money from internal funds, it will be harder than climbing to the sky. Unless there is a major problem, the national treasury If the turnover is really difficult, then the internal funds will allocate special funds.

But this money must be paid back!
Not only must you pay it back, but you must also pay interest, otherwise there will be no next time.

And as the Shaofu, Military Academy and other departments have been set up one after another, the main direction of internal funds is the fields finalized by Zhu Youxiao.

It's just different from the consumption of the Shaofu. The Military Academy is pure consumption. Although the Shaofu also accounts for a lot of internal funds, at least the money and food spent will gradually replenish the internal funds as batches of industries are built. This is also There is no guarantee that the two companies mentioned above will inevitably say something when they come into contact.
