New Shun 1730

Leaving the palace, without the ice bucket beside the emperor to cool down, the heat rushed over him all of a sudden.

Returning to the Yiguogong Mansion, the wedding was imminent, and he, the groom, seemed redundant. Many things had nothing to do with him, and everyone in the mansion was busy.

Returning to his own Earl's Mansion, he was still busy and chaotic.

There were too many things in the court, and it was estimated that even if the Academy of Sciences in Tsinghua Park was built, it would take a long time.

He and Dai Jinxian were having a very awkward relationship now, and he didn't want to talk about the land occupation and construction of the Academy of Sciences now.

It was estimated that he would have to stay in the capital for a while, and he couldn't do it without a confidant, so he wrote a letter and asked someone to send it to Weihai.

He sent back some of the orphans he selected, both boys and girls, and only let Kang Budai stay in Weihai to be in charge of the workshops.

He had full confidence in the navy, and if he didn't go to Weihai in person, it wouldn't cause too much shock.

There would definitely be shocks and doubts, and it would be strange if there weren't any, but as for the situation of collective riots, it was absolutely impossible.

The idea that Tian Zhenyi gave him was a bit hasty and sudden, but it was still very feasible. For the time being, returning to the capital to institutionalize some things is indeed far better than staying in Weihai to take charge of the navy.

According to Tian Zhenyi's inference, if he really wants to fight in Southeast Asia in the future, he will definitely be the commander, so staying in Weihai is really meaningless.

I just don't know who the emperor will ask to take over the Jinghai Jiedushi. It is estimated that he will choose someone related to Liu Yu. After all, to ensure that Xiao Gui Cao follows, if Hokkaido is taken and incorporated into Jinghai Province in the future, the consistent policy will definitely continue Liu Yu's policy, and the emperor should consider this.

That place is poor and hard, and no normal person is willing to go there, and it is far from the time to pick peaches.

At the morning court on the second day, Liu Yu went in on time, but the emperor did not mention that he wanted Liu Yu to return to Beijing to resign from the navy, but asked about the Japanese country first.

"The Japanese invaded and occupied Ryukyu for more than a hundred years, exterminated the vassal states, and deceived the Celestial Empire. I deeply hate this. How do you solve this problem?"

"The Ryukyu confessed his crime. Although his crime is abominable, he is powerless. The Japanese are the culprit. If they are not punished, they will be laughed at by the world."

"Now that most of the envoys of Western countries are in the capital, the Ryukyu came here to confess his crime and complain about his injustice. How can we ignore it?"

The fake Privy Councilor Jiang Chen said: "I think that the Japanese are ambitious. They invaded Silla during the Tang Dynasty and destroyed Korea in the previous dynasty. They controlled Ryukyu for more than a hundred years, which is a great humiliation to the Celestial Empire. If they are not attacked, the vassal states will think that the Celestial Empire is powerless. , fearing the loss of the heart of the vassal. Moreover, Japan is arrogant and has not paid tribute for a long time. I think we should cross the sea and attack it. "

After saying that, he looked at Liu Yu again and said: "Ying Suo Bo is familiar with naval warfare and has been at sea for a long time. He must know maritime astronomy. Moreover, after Ying Suo Bo went to Ryukyu, he went to Japan to pressure it, and his journey was smooth. The Japanese rely on the sea. If we can cross the sea, Japan is not a concern. "

"I think that we should move six divisions to conquer them and punish the culprit, so as to show your majesty's wisdom. "

This is to hope that Liu Yu will come out to make a guarantee. The overall situation of crossing the sea to conquer Japan has been decided, but the court still turned over the history books, worried that the Mongolian conquest of Japan would happen again.

The ministers are still as afraid of the sea as ever. In Liu Yu's view, this sea across the sea is much easier than conquering the Gobi desert in the Western Regions as long as the warships and navigation skills are qualified.

However, before Liu Yu came out to make a guarantee, several noble generals also came forward to support the war.

Their descendants were either in the army, or were forced by Liu Yu to march in the Western Regions during the conquest of Junggar. They were looking forward to the war and gaining military merit.

The emperor held the righteousness in his hand, and said that it was about face, and said that the envoys of Western countries were all there. With such a gesture, no one came forward to touch this bad luck.

Moreover, the conquest of Japan had been foreshadowed. It was not that the angel accidentally discovered that there was a problem with Ryukyu, but that Liu Yu was sent to Ryukyu after building momentum in the court and asking the Ryukyu students.

In this situation, no one mentioned "a small boat sent an envoy to Japan to question", and mentioning it would open the scar.

Thousands of miles apart, the Ryukyu matter has been concealed from the Wanli period of the previous dynasty to the present. Who dares to guarantee that the questioning is definitely true?

After a long preparation, plus the emperor's show at Zhengyang Gate that day, everyone knew that whoever stood up to oppose at this time would be scolded to death and be labeled a traitor.

The emperor waited for a while, and seeing that no one opposed the war, he said: "What the Privy Councilor said is very much in line with my wishes. But I think he must be sent on a long expedition across the sea."

"First, he is getting married today, and it is often said that Huo Guanjun will not talk about his family until the Xiongnu is destroyed. If he goes on the expedition, it will be unlucky for him."

"Second, Ying Suo Bo said that day that he wanted to train a well-organized army, and even without him, he would still win. No one can match him in training troops. Since he said it was a well-organized army, I have confidence in it."

"Ying Suo Bo has been in the army for a long time, and he has made great contributions. It is better for him to return to Beijing to rest."

A stone stirs up a thousand waves. Although it is necessary to keep quiet when attending court, the emperor's words still shocked everyone in the court.

Because of the presence of the ceremonial officer, it is not easy to exclaim, but everyone's heart is surging with waves.

What does this mean?

Liu Yu was stripped of his military power by His Majesty?

Does it mean that Liu Yu has fallen out of favor?

Changing generals before a battle is a big taboo in military strategy. Even if it is a so-called disciplined army, no one knows whether it can be used.

This is just what Liu Yu said. He did win the battle against Junggar that day, but the Qingzhou Army was also led by Liu Yu.

Is this victory over a controlled army? Or does victory lie in the fact that the soldiers know their generals as if they have arms to guide them? No one can tell.

Thinking back to the fact that Liu Yu was fined three years for "beating a Dutch sailor" a few days ago, and the emperor sent the seventh prince to Weihai, etc., could it be that Liu Yu did something domineering? Or is it to cultivate personal subordinates in the army, and His Majesty will be angry?

Are you afraid that after defeating the Japanese country and then making new achievements, you will not be able to defeat them in the end?

Not only those who were gloating over Liu Yu's misfortune and Liu Yu couldn't deal with it, but also those who were relatively close to Liu Yu's circle were all stunned at this time, not expecting that such an incident would happen today.

Duke Yi Guo was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. Could it be that Shouchang's mouth said something that he shouldn't have said? I have told him a long time ago that he should be more steady and not talk about everything. Accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger. Even if there are many tragedies between fathers, sons and brothers, do you really think of yourself as Huo Qubing? Besides, the champion died young and you are still alive. Can't you be more honest?

Several people covered their faces with wat boards and quietly observed Liu Yu. Neither Yi Guogong nor Qi Guogong wanted to come forward because they wanted to avoid suspicion. Jiang Chen came forward again and said: "Your Majesty, changing generals before the battle... is really a taboo for military strategists."

But the emperor smiled and said: "Didn't Uncle Ying Suo always say that in the future, when nobles come out of town to serve as commanders, and soldiers are drilled uniformly, it will be necessary to change generals? Is it possible that the army is like this, but the navy is not like this?"

This sentence sounds like trust, but also like beating, and a bit like grabbing the handle to release power. Even the minister who understands the emperor's heart does not understand what it means.

But Liu Yu came out and said: "Your Majesty, the same is true for the navy. I train the navy, and what I do is to train such a navy. If the naval battle fails, I will be responsible for it."

Everyone was a little confused. Now that the emperor has spoken, it is certain that Liu Yu will hand over power, because the emperor has forced Liu Yu to have no way out.

You said it yourself, you are practicing an organized army. If you yourself say that you can't win without you, wouldn't that be the crime of deceiving the emperor?

It was inevitable to hand over power, but what I didn't expect was that Liu Yu actually took the responsibility and said that if the naval battle failed, it would be his responsibility.

The fear of Japan is still deeply imprinted in the minister's mind, or it can be said that it is the fear of the sea. Since there are few people like Liu Yu who are so confident that half of the navy can destroy the Japanese navy, it is naturally difficult to understand Liu Yu's actions.

If you can't understand, you will be confused.

A few people who were quite dissatisfied with Liu Yu also secretly admired him in their hearts, thinking that although this man did not read the words of saints and was rude and arrogant, he was loyal and truly selfless.

But what does the emperor mean by replacing Liu Yu at this time?

Do you want to take the opportunity to see the imperial court's control of the navy? Is the navy's surname Li or Liu? If this is the case, even if Liu Yu happily hands over power at this time, there will still be a gap, and maybe he can be impeached?

When a few people who were thinking about it were thinking about it, they heard the emperor say: "Although you don't have to go to the sea in person, you are familiar with maritime affairs and the situation of the Japanese country. You can't avoid the important tasks of the Japanese military aircraft. This is one of them." "

"Secondly, the Ministry of Justice came to report that the Rakshasa people occupied their pastures, built fortresses, and never returned them. You have dealt with the Rakshasa people a lot and are familiar with the Western Regions. These days, you should carefully study the Rakshasa and the mountain and river geography of the Western Regions. If true. If there is a war, you will need to leave the Irtysh River."

In two words, although the minister still had a little fear of the sea and Japan and believed that he was a powerful enemy, he still didn't understand that the conquest of Japan was so simple, but he understood it. I was afraid that Liu Yu's favor had not been lost at this time.

He is required to participate in the major military event against the Japanese, and he is also required to be prepared to go out to control the Western Region. Could it be that he is preparing to fight the Rakshasa again in the northwest?

If so, it seems to make sense.

In the battle against Rakshasa in Heilongjiang, it was Liu Yu who made the biggest splash; when marching into the Western Regions, it was Liu Yu who took the lead, defeating a large number of young men in the army who were eagerly awaiting meritorious service. Behemoth, the war turned into a war at the level of reforming the native land in the southwest.

After weighing the balance, it should be that the Japanese only need to be punished slightly, but the battle with Rakshasa seems to be a little more serious, so Liu Yu is brought back?

Some ministers who have read the brief examination of Western countries also know that Sweden and Rakshasa have a history of enmity. This time the Swedish envoy came, and Dashun had previously sent the Swedish prisoners of the quasi-division back to Sweden. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that there was something wrong. This possibility.

When most people thought they had figured it out, Qi Guogong, who knew that he wanted to talk to Rakshasa but not fight, was a little confused.

He didn't know what was going on here, but he knew that Liu Yu would not go out to control the Western Region. At most, he would only scare the Rakshasa people.

I was confused for only a moment, but I soon figured it out. The more information I knew, the more I could figure it out.

He thought secretly: "This is a very good thing. Since you are in Beijing, I will be more confident about negotiating with Rakshasa."

There are actually many people who can fight in the court, but the one the Rakshasa people are most familiar with is Liu Yu. The rest of the people who had returned to their native land in the southwest and who had previously fought against the quasi-communist group had no problem organizing legion operations, but their reputations were not well known among the Rakshasa.

The Duke of Qi thought that if Liu Yu prepared to lead the army in the court, the Rakshasa people would be afraid of him no matter what. Only by getting into a fighting stance can we get more land.

As for the Japanese country, they could not be frightened and could only rely on fighting.

It's not that Liu Yu is the only one who can fight, it's that the Rakshasa people only know that Liu Yu can fight.

After thinking about it again, I felt it was clearer. Since the only way to rely on fighting was to rely on fighting, and Liu Yu thought that the Japanese navy was not worth mentioning, it was meaningless whether Liu Yu went or not. On the contrary, it would be more valuable to stay in the capital and prepare to leave the Western Region at any time.

One man can be as good as 20,000 soldiers.

He secretly praised it as a brilliant idea, but he didn't expect that it was his daughter's idea to avoid the trouble of leading the navy and going to Southeast Asia. He didn't really care about the survey of the northwest boundary.
