Chapter 1004 The fleet returns!(1/2)
~~~~~~
Things like taking away a man's wife and daughter...
Although Li Yuanqing doesn't bother to do it, it doesn't mean that if this kind of thing comes to his door, he will definitely turn it away...
After all, the butt determines the head.
Just like Zhou Yu hitting the yellow cover, one is willing to hit and the other is willing to suffer.
Especially this kind of joint is at the right time...
Even if Mao Yuanyi really cannot hold up the wall, it will not cause any harm to Li Yuanqing. On the contrary, it will only have advantages and no disadvantages.
Before, Li Yuanqing was worried about how to send a message to Wang Zaijin...
Wang Zaijin, in the history of the late Ming Dynasty, can definitely be regarded as... a capable minister who can truly govern the world.
His policy of abandoning the whole of Liao and sticking to Shanhaiguan has been proven countless times in later generations. This was the most reasonable, effective and feasible policy to solve the disasters in Liao at that time.
Because even if the Ming army abandoned more than half of Liaoxi, the Jin army would not be able to set up any strongholds or bridgeheads in western Liaoning as an outpost to march into the Ming Dynasty.
Since Lao Nu captured Guangning City before and burned it down, it was already destined that in a short period of time, it would be difficult for Hou Jin's military focus to move forward to western Liaoning.
Because this will cost a lot of financial, material and manpower.
This was a heavy burden that the Hou Jin Dynasty could not bear at this time, even if the talented and strategic Huang Taiji was in power.
Even if Houjin has established a country, it is still a predatory and bandit armed group.
If they want to gain wealth, they mostly have to rob it.
Once the powerful gate of Shanhaiguan was closed, it would be difficult for Houjin to find a breakthrough in Ming Dynasty's frontal defense line.
Especially the Ming Dynasty and the existence of Juehua Island.
Even if the Hou Jin Dynasty established a bridgehead in western Liaoning, the Ming army would have been in an invincible position with the innate advantages of Juehua Island Navy.
Even if the Jin army later enters the pass from a fortress such as Xi sealing the mouth, it will no longer be able to pose a real threat to the Ming Dynasty.
But there is no longer the shackles of salary that can be compared to a 'demon'.
The Ming court and Emperor Chongzhen also had more energy, especially more money, to deal with the internal affairs of the Ming Dynasty, without having to continue to increase taxes on the people again and again.
The karma of the Shaanxi refugee army may be within a controllable range, instead of being like the later "single fire that can start a prairie fire".
such a pity.
Everyone has his strong and weak points.
Although Wang Zaijin's vision is superior to others in the general direction, and can even be said to be ahead of his time, he himself also has problems of one kind or another.
For example, defects must be reported, being too stubborn...
This is destined to mean that he cannot go very far in the officialdom, let alone be too practical.
After all, although the Ming Dynasty was a cabinet system, since Lao Zhu deliberately deposed Hu Weiyong as prime minister, the cabinet system of the Ming Dynasty has become nothing more than a charade.
The Ming Dynasty's cabinet system is lifelong, but few people can stay in the position of chief minister for three to five years, let alone ten or eight years.
One emperor and one courtier.
This is doomed, no matter how good the strategy is, it will never be truly implemented at the grassroots level.
This is doomed~~, the cabinet can only be a 'slaughterhouse' that balances the interests of all parties, and has long lost the meaning of its own existence.
But Wang Zaijin still has some real abilities.
The reason why he was unable to perform was more of a problem with the system and Emperor Chongzhen's inability to continue to have trust in him.
The icing on the cake, how can it be like providing help in the snow?
When Wang Zaijin was at his peak, it was almost impossible for Li Yuanqing to win over him or get close to him.
But~, according to the general trend at this time, according to the temperament of Emperor Chongzhen, if Wang Zaijin is castrated again, I am afraid that the countdown has already begun...
If it were Sun Chengzong, this old man, even after he was castrated, it would be impossible for Li Yuanqing to win over him.
Because this old man's heart and blood have already been completely dedicated to the entire Ming Dynasty.
But the king is in Jin...
Li Yuanqing couldn't help but smile lightly.
How could he be willing to be kicked off the stage like this...
And in the future, as long as Wang Zaijin bows his head, it will not only be his business...
…………
Li Yuanqing and Yang Jiao's mother have been an old couple for a long time. Without the fresh 'adjustment' prepared by Yang Jiao's mother, most of the time when Li Yuanqing came to her, it would be more like 'handing in homework' and enjoying the tenderness of the relationship.
It is not a pure love between men and women.
But today, with so much happiness coming, Li Yuanqing showed off his power so much that Yang Jiao's mother still didn't get up at noon the next day...
At noon the next day, although Li Yuanqing was a little tired, he was extremely energetic.
Thousands of streams merge into the sea.
From everything going smoothly, to being world-famous, to now, facing such a big dilemma, Li Yuanqing's heart has long been like a deep pool, unfazed by favors and humiliations.
His wealth and vision were no longer comparable to that of the small businessman in later generations.
After having a comfortable lunch, he held a short meeting with the Political Affairs Office and briefly arranged the affairs to welcome the fleet. Li Yuanqing went directly to the dock to wait for the fleet to return.
Originally, Li Yuanqing wanted the fleet to go directly to the military port in the south of Nanxinkou. After all, the military port was more private. The size of the fleet this time was really large and too ostentatious.
But after careful consideration, Li Yuanqing gave up this idea.
At this time of year, Changsheng Island, including Liaonan, obviously needs a dose of stimulants. Even if the news spreads, to some extent, it will not only have negative effects.
Li Yuanqing also deliberately ordered the Political Affairs Department to prepare a rather grand welcome ceremony. Many people had already begun to gather on the pier.
The sons and daughters of Nanyang have worked hard for several years, and they should finally be able to enjoy the glory of their hometown.
In the public room in front of the dock, Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong were drinking tea and looking outside.
Naturally, Li Yuanqing would not shy away from Chen Zhong about this kind of matter, but Li Yuanqing had to firmly control the accounts personally.
At this time, looking at the excited people outside, Chen Zhong couldn't help but spit out: "Yuan Qing, if, if we give up the foundation we have worked so hard to accumulate for so many years, I will really not be happy about it, no.
What a pleasure!”
But Li Yuanqing laughed loudly: "Brother, if the old ones don't go, the new ones won't come. Liao land is in a turbulent and troubled time at this time, so we should look further away! Furthermore, who will win, now it's time to say
It’s too early.”
Of course Chen Zhong also understood what Li Yuanqing meant, and he breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "Yuanqing, Liao land is a bitter and cold place, but the court is still like this... Hey, just thinking about it makes me fucking chill! That's right.
Well, Yuanqing, what's going on over there on Jeju Island? If not, we will retreat directly to Jeju Island. What can the court do to us?"
Li Yuanqing certainly understood Chen Zhong's profound meaning.
If the two troops retreat to Jeju Island, with Dongjiang helping here, and the front-line connection between Xihaerwei and Yemuhewei in the north, to a certain extent, Changsheng Camp's sea trade offensive will be more convenient than it is now.
Quite a few.
However, if that were the case, Li Yuanqing would have to fade out of the Ming Dynasty's political landscape.
But in this situation, even if Li Yuanqing wanted to give up the interests of Changsheng Island, he would never give up the political territory of the Ming Dynasty.
Just like fishing or catching rabbits, as long as you have the tools and everything is ready, all that's left is patience...
"Brother, after all, Jeju Island is a land of alienation. You can rest assured. The soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it. There are so many strong winds and waves, and our brothers have come over. How can we capsize in a small ditch like Governor Yuan?"
Chen Zhong nodded somewhat depressedly, but after a moment, he regained his energy and said with a smile: "Yuan Qing, I don't know what good things the fleet brought us."
Li Yuanqing smiled: "Brother, don't worry. This time, there are quite a lot of treasures in the fleet, there must be one you like!"
The fleet arrived earlier than expected. Around four o'clock in the afternoon, the huge sails, like white clouds covering the sky, slowly sailed into the harbor.
The fluttering bloody red eagle flags and the tumbling sun and moon wave flags instantly brought the whole emotion to the climax!
The people shouted loudly, and the sound almost pierced the sky.
The bright red men on the fleet could not contain their excitement. They waved to the crowd on the shore and shouted desperately.
Some people even took off their shirts and waved their red jerseys desperately. You know, it was only the end of February and it was still winter.
Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong had already arrived in front of the dock.
The fleet hasn't entered the port yet, but there are already several small boats heading here quickly.
Look at the flag, Xu Heizi and Yang Xiaochuan have arrived!
Not long after, more than a hundred generals including Xu Heizi, Yang Xiaochuan, Zhang Yang, etc., quickly arrived on the shore. There was a huge roar and they knelt down respectfully in front of Li Yuanqing.
"Commander, the boat is kowtowing to you!"
"Commander, Heizi is back!"
"Commander..."
Even Xu Heizi, who has always been strong, couldn't help but shed tears at this moment. Because of his mistake, he had been away from home for too long.
To be continued...
