At the end of the Ming Dynasty, I freely traveled through Yangshen

Chapter 6 My Daming is Really Saved
Seeing Wang Chengen's silence, Zhu Cixiang asked again, "Wang Banban, in your opinion, how much money do we need now to allow the army to regain the Central Plains, drive out the Tartars, and capture Yanyun?"

"I'm afraid it's an astronomical number."

Wang Chengen's face looked ugly. He also knew that Zhu Cixiang's words were true, so he asked, "What's the clever plan of the thousand-year-old master?"

"Ugh."

Hearing this, Zhu Cixi sighed, looking like he couldn't say what he said.

"Master Qiantose, is there anything you can't say?"

Seeing Zhu Cixiang's expression, Wang Chengen's heart skipped a beat and he subconsciously asked, "Is there something unspeakable about this?"

Although he had already spoken, Zhu Cixiang's expression was still a bit difficult to explain, "Today, the so-called Eight Banners of Manchuria only has more than 15 people, and among them, there are more than 20 traitors like the Sanshun Puppet King. They are considered the elite among the Manchus. It seems that there are [-] combatable soldiers, as well as tens of thousands of Lin Danhan's old tribe and other Mongolian tribes that are dependent on the Manchus. There are [-] to [-] enemy invaders outside the pass.

The rebels in the pass are so powerful that if they invade Xi'an, they will surely be able to summon hundreds of thousands of troops to attack Beijing. This means that if our Ming army wants to defeat the rebels, they will have to mobilize. One hundred thousand officers and soldiers will face the rebels. , and to face the Tartars, two to three times more people would have to be mobilized to face the Tartars, counting 50 to [-] officers and soldiers.

And because the two are in different locations, these officers and soldiers cannot be dispersed. One against two will be exhausted, so this means that if the Ming Dynasty wants to defeat the two forces at the same time, regain the Central Plains, and take Yanyun directly, at least There must be 60 officers and soldiers on standby. "

"With these 60 officers and soldiers on standby, does the imperial court have enough money and food? Even if we don't fight against the bandits and Tartars, and just maintain the situation, there must be at least 60 actual troops among the 30 officers and soldiers."

"I dare to ask Wang Banban, can the court afford the actual amount of 30 yuan according to Guan Ningjun's salary?"

Zhu Cixiang stood up, his expression suddenly became extremely serious, and he looked at Wang Chengen with piercing eyes, as if waiting for his answer.

"This…"

Wang Chengenzhi felt that there was a magic power that penetrated the soul in Zhu Cixiang's eyes, as if everything about him was known to him. In Zhu Cixiang's eyes, he felt a great pressure, but he also knew that the current finances of the imperial court, He had no choice but to bite the bullet and said, "No, the imperial treasury is empty, and it is often allocated for use after not being stored in the treasury for a long time."

"Snapped!"

Suddenly, Zhu Cixi slapped the table in front of him fiercely, with a look of determination on his face.

"Since the imperial court is unable to maintain the current situation, and if it continues like this, the high-rise buildings may collapse, then it is better for the strong men to cut off their wrists and retreat to the southeast where they can absorb a lot of wealth. As long as they enter, 2000 million yuan of wealth will be accumulated in a year, and the imperial court will be ready to hone its troops, the immortal said. , according to this plan, I have hope for the Ming Dynasty ZTE." Retreating to the southeast to accumulate wealth, this is the development route Zhu Cixi has arranged for himself, giving up some rotten areas first, which is like removing the rotten areas during surgery, and then letting the good areas go. Get nutritional supplements, and the empty areas will naturally grow back when there are nutrients.

"Is this what the immortal said? But if we abandon Beijing, Ming Dynasty will go into exile... Is this possible?" Although he didn't believe in any immortals, he still vaguely felt that what Zhu Cixi said was somewhat reasonable. After thinking about it carefully, Wang Chengen proposed his own He asked, "If Beijing and other places in the Central Plains were abandoned, wouldn't the Tartars and Luchou directly go south and destroy the southeast?"

"Why not?" Zhu Cixi turned around and asked, "If it is really so easy to be destroyed when fighting from the north to the south, then why did the Mongolian Han Mengge die in the battle of Xiangyang during the Southern Song Dynasty? When fighting in the Central Plains, the terrain is flat, so naturally we rely on Horses are as fast as the wind and as fast as thunder and lightning, but the southeast is a water town. The Yangtze River, Huanghuai River, canals, and the sea are natural chasms. These water network combinations can come and go freely. As long as the navy is trained well, it can be traversed here. This It is different from fighting on land.

Our Ming Dynasty has Fujian, Guangdong, and Tianjin navies, and whatever navies the bandits and Tartars have, they are all landlubbers. Moreover, the fleet under the Governor of Water Transport can also be converted into a navy in time of war. There are these natural chasms in the middle, vertical and horizontal directions, and with the advantage of the navy, the world in the southeast of our Ming Dynasty is as stable as Mount Tai. "

At this time, although the Ming Dynasty suffered successive defeats in land and land operations, the navy's external and internal wars were more victorious and less defeated. It can be said that its strength is second only to the Spanish Armada that spans the oceans, but it only has a low reputation in later generations. , you must know that at its peak, the Ming Dynasty's navy could radiate as far as the Strait of Malacca, and even further back, it also carried out the feat of sailing around the world in the Western Ocean.

Wang Chengen remained silent, as if thinking.

Seeing this, Zhu Cixiang continued: "If the intruders and others are allowed to enter Beijing, it will be equivalent to them facing the captives outside Shanhaiguan on our behalf. If they want to gain power in Beijing, they must defend the city of Beijing. This is It is a great righteousness. Once they settle in Beijing, these intruders have to know what it is to conquer the world. It is easy to defend the world. It is difficult to defend the world. The Ming Dynasty has an empty treasury and no money and food. If I want to fight the captives, why do they let them destroy the pot as soon as they come? Food to welcome the king's army? This is obviously unrealistic. War requires money. Once the cannon is fired, gold is ten thousand taels. The bandits have no money to fight. They don't have to offend the common people. Once they break something, they don't pay for it for three years. , equalizing land and exempting taxes, and showing the true face of the intruders will let the world see clearly the true face of the intruders, and we as orthodox naturally occupy the real righteousness. At the same time, they are guarding in Beijing, and the people of Beijing will definitely not let them go. They Once he faced the Tartars, he couldn't get away.

At this time, the Ming Dynasty was accumulating strength in the south, sitting and watching the battle between the captives and thieves in the north. At the same time, because the imperial court moved south and was not in the north, it naturally did not have to bear the salary between the clan and vassal kings. Once I accumulated wealth in this way, I would naturally have the opportunity to do that. The country of comeback. "

At present, the territory in the north has been eroded due to the intensification of wars and natural disasters. It has become a huge drag on the entire Ming Dynasty. If the strong man does not cut off his wrist, the real edifice of the Ming Dynasty will collapse.

At this moment, Zhu Cixiang's words became very sharp, and his eyes sparkled with brilliance, "As long as we can return to the south, the situation will actually change dramatically. This is not a tripartite confrontation, this is something similar to the late Yuan Dynasty. The weather has changed, these ugly captives are aliens, and these bandits have become the Red Turban Army, and we are naturally the lineage of Taizu who raised troops from the southeast to compete in the world.

Wang Banban, haven’t you understood what happened until now?The road pointed by the immortal is this Zhuangdao. As long as we can follow the plan of this palace, my Ming Dynasty will be great again!what do you think? "

All of a sudden, Wang Chengen understood everything. The immortal martial arts and the dreams of immortals were all just rhetoric. The prince in front of him actually had such a profound layout, could analyze all the situations so clearly, and also explained the situation. They were pointed out to him one by one. Wang Chengen knew what this meant. It meant that the young man in front of him would be the hope of the entire Ming Dynasty in the future, so his eyes changed.

Looking at the young man in front of him, Wang Chengen seemed to see a dazzling divine light shining in Zhu Cixiang's eyes. This light was so bright that he could not open his eyes, as if he was enveloped by a light curtain, and he who had figured everything out His body was trembling violently, and he kept murmuring, "Master Qiansui, Master Qiansui actually has such a plan, the hero...Master Qiansu must be the hero who gave me the Ming Dynasty! I, the Ming Dynasty... I, the Ming Dynasty, really It’s saved!”

....
　Hahaha, come on, wait for the news of the signing.
