I am the carpenter king

() Sun Chengzong naturally understood his own thoughts very well, and he spoke eloquently. Since Emperor Tianqi showed such interest, he naturally spoke in more detail.

"Your Majesty, there is only one short-term goal, and that is to stabilize the situation in Liaodong. One is to stabilize the morale of the army, and the other is to stabilize the hearts of the people in Liaodong. Liaodong is the gateway to the capital and has the Liaohe Plain with abundant water and grass. To build a cavalry with combat effectiveness, it is naturally inseparable from horses. Liaodong is an indispensable place to raise horses, and Ming Dynasty is indispensable.” Stretching out his finger to the large map, Sun Chengzong looked quite excited. Cavalry is his dream.

Gently nodding his head, Emperor Tianqi kept thinking in his heart that in history, it was when Sun Chengzong was in Liaodong that the situation in Liaodong improved.It is also the Sun Chengzong in front of me who established a cavalry team in Liaodong, which is the famous Guanning Iron Cavalry in history, the last cavalry worthy of battle in Ming Dynasty.

"Stabilizing the situation in Liaodong, consolidating border defenses, and establishing a strong cavalry are all military measures. Liaodong is a remote place. With such a foundation, we can implement administrative reforms in Liaodong. It is remote and resists It will be relatively small, and I believe there should be no problem. Even if there are some disclosures, the army is close at hand, and the problem can be solved as soon as possible. I believe that once the situation stabilizes, the imperial court will allocate money to build a horse farm and resume production in Liaodong. It shouldn't be a big problem. After one or two years, the situation in Liaodong will be stable and there will be plenty of food and money, so it shouldn't be a problem to supply the army in Liaodong." Emperor Tianqi lowered his head and muttered to himself.

Sun Chengzong on the side saw Emperor Tianqi pondering, so he stopped talking. He just listened to Emperor Tianqi's words, and his heart was suddenly quite excited.Emperor Tianqi not only agrees with his opinion, but also seems to be reforming the Liaodong system, so that the original constraints and ties will not exist.If he gets the full support of Emperor Tianqi, Sun Chengzong is confident that within three years, Liaodong will be changed.

Kneeling slowly on the ground, Sun Chengzong's face was quite serious, and he said loudly: "Your Majesty is the wise master. Please go to Liaodong, and I will definitely fulfill your majesty's wish." It was assigned to Emperor Tianqi, so that many troubles could be avoided, and the criticism of those people would not fall on him.

Slowly nodded, Emperor Tianqi walked to Sun Chengzong's side and helped him up, and said with some embarrassment: "Aiqing, as the first assistant scholar of the cabinet, I can't bear to go to Liaodong at this time. My teacher, I can't bear to put my husband in danger." Emperor Tianqi is acting, as the saying goes, Liu Bei beats the child to buy people's hearts.

"Your Majesty, I am grateful to Your Majesty for not giving up, and to be able to be a minister by Your Majesty's side. This is my dream. Even if I die for Your Majesty, I am willing." Sun Chengzong did not get up, and still knelt on the ground with a stern face. Said.

"Sir, get up first, let me think about it!" Emperor Tianqi is very confused now, he has a lot of ideas but doesn't know how to implement them, he really wants to be quiet.

"Your Majesty, if you don't allow me to go to Liaodong, I ask you to resign!" Although Sun Chengzong stood up, the words in his mouth were resounding, and he would definitely not miss such an opportunity.At this time, he was also hot-headed, and he blurted out such words.

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Emperor Tianqi looked helplessly at Sun Chengzong in front of him, so he had no choice but to say, "Okay, I will let Aiqing go!"

"Your Majesty, forgive me, I'm rude!" Sun Chengzong also sensed something was wrong, and quickly saluted Emperor Tianqi, saying in a deep voice.

Waving at Sun Chengzong, Emperor Tianqi's eyes still fell on the map, and he turned to Sun Chengzong behind him and said: "Sir, look here."

Following the place pointed by Emperor Tianqi, Sun Chengzong looked over, and then he was slightly taken aback, because he was familiar with that place, where is Shanxi and Shaanxi!I don't know what the young emperor thought of.

"Sir, I don't think it's enough to have an iron cavalry in Liaodong. This is the land of Qin. From ancient times to the present, the people of Qin are brave and martial, and it is a good source of soldiers. The most important thing is that it is backed by the vast Yellow River Plain. , the Hetao Plain is a famous place for raising horses in ancient times. If a powerful cavalry is established here, the situation will be different. Not only can it guard against the surprise attack of Houjin in Liaodong, but it can also attack at any time. Strategically Very active." Emperor Tianqi's eyes were fixed on there at this time, not only to deal with Hou Jin and the Mongols, but also for Shaanxi and Shanxi.

A few years later, the severe drought caused the people to be unhappy, and the peasant uprising broke out.But the real reason is that there are traces to follow. The officials in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces were corrupt, and the frontier army even existed in name only at that time.The most important thing is that there is a big smuggler of the Ming Dynasty here, that is, Shanxi merchants.

At this time, because of the interruption of the Silk Road, most of Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces became big landlords.In a year of good weather, these people may still be able to be a rich man safely and walk away from the officialdom.But there was a severe drought there, and many businessmen had no choice but to start business.

Due to geographical restrictions, there is no advantage of Jiangnan here, and many industries cannot be engaged in.In order to survive, these people started some illegal business.That is smuggling, and the targets of smuggling are the tribes of Mongolia and Houjin.These people may not have thought that they did not die in the hands of the court, but in the hands of those peasants and military households, which has to be said to be a kind of irony.

To avoid such a thing from happening, there is naturally no way. Of course, the Emperor Tianqi has never thought about stopping the severe drought, because that is something he cannot do.The solution is disaster relief. Disaster relief must solve several problems, the first being the problem of food.Emperor Apocalypse thought about this issue, and he needed to promote several high-yield crops and work hard to increase food production.Although I have an impression in my memory, Emperor Tianqi doesn't understand the current agricultural situation, so I can only talk about it later.

As for the second question, it is about the administration of officials in Shaanxi.In history, Emperor Chongzhen mainly focused on appeasing Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, but it didn't work.One is because the suppression is not in place, and the other is because the relief is not in place.All the food distributed by the imperial court was hacked by unscrupulous businessmen and corrupt officials in partnership. If these people could not survive, it was a desperate rebellion.Coupled with the instigation of those who were determined to rebel, the peasant uprising was naturally out of control.
