Chapter 467

Zhao Bing's edict quickly received a warm response from the officers and soldiers from Quanzhou. Of course, due to the differences in cultural levels, the things they obtained were far apart. Some were just a simple sketch with simple lines drawn on it, and tried their best to mark rivers, mountains, rivers, houses, fields, and roads with symbols that everyone could see clearly. Pen "Fun"                                                                                  

'BiQuGe.

A high CN level can not only draw the general situation, but also include words, mark the direction, make a rough estimate of the depth and height of the water. An article will even attach a text to further explain the population and folk customs here.

Due to their economic strength and vision, some soldiers have never left their hometown, but they are familiar with the local geography and have been engraved in their hearts. Therefore, the map drawn is more detailed, so there is a well and a path that is rarely visited. Some are local wealthy gentry, and their footprints must be much larger, and they have some understanding of the countryside outside their hometown. The map drawn is large in scope and has clear criticality, but it is not so detailed.

Of course, there are also high-level people. For example, Cai Wanyi was once the officer of Quanzhou City. He was very familiar with the situation inside and outside the city, and made detailed calibrations of the streets, towns and yamen inside and outside the city. Liu Zhu was once the navy camp of the navy, and the ports and waterways around Quanzhou were clear. The maps drawn were naturally clear, more reliable, and more practical.

Faced with hundreds of maps and materials that suddenly appeared on the case, Zhao Bing had to be confused, let alone distinguish them one by one. So he urgently established an "editorial committee" to organize and compile the information according to His Majesty's regulations.

Time is tight and the task is heavy. In order to complete the map drawing as soon as possible, he asked everyone to use the puzzle mode, first roughly draw the general picture, expand outward with Quanzhou as the center, fill in the blanks until the sketch picture is completed. Then draw the sub-picture pictures of each district and county, and this one must be more detailed, marked more accurately, and use a unified scale and legend until the sub-picture can piece together a more detailed sea 6 geometric map.

Of course, it is not possible to have a map of Quanzhou alone. Zhao Bing also ordered the Privy Council and the army to present the sea map from Qiongzhou to Quanzhou for revision. Because there are unexpected storms, if you encounter storms, you must choose a place to hide from the wind nearby. In addition, fresh water and rest are needed along the way. This requires relatively detailed information and should not be careless. On the other hand, in addition to instructing the Bureau of Affairs to step up the collection of information along the route and Quanzhou, the Privy Council and the Navy Army also sent scouts to reconnaise the hydrological conditions of the garrisons and the sea areas in various places.

At the same time, Zhao Bing considered that this battle, the only enemy naval forces they faced were Quanzhou naval forces, which were mainly composed of the Pu family's private army and the left-wing army, but their strength was far worse than Ali Hague and Liu Shen. What's more, Zhang Hongfan was recruited and destroyed in Yashan, so his combat effectiveness was limited. He expected that a large-scale water battle would not break out, and the sixth battle was the protagonist of this battle.

In this battle, Zhao Bing was preparing to use the forces of the three guards' personal army, with nearly 40,000 troops. Although they may be supplemented in Quanzhou, they may also get nothing. Therefore, they must bring enough food and supplies, and a large number of baggage ships must be used. In addition to dispatching the Baisha Navy, he also allocated baggage ships from the other armies to transport supplies. Considering that long-distance voyages are required, it is best to have wind resistance and a blessed ship suitable for navigation, which requires coordination from the imperial guards in front of the hall. In addition, Zhao Bing also ordered the capital to be the courtyard in the name of the Military Affairs Office, and the Military Arts Supervisor and Changping Office quickly raised the required materials and sent them to the Haikou Military Port...

While all the work was in full swing, we also arrived at the court meeting of the Sun. After accepting the worship of all officials, the Empress Dowager issued an edict to disperse the court and summoned the people to the ruling palace to discuss matters. After hearing a few words, the Empress Dowager became tired and returned to the palace first and handed it over to His Majesty. The ministers sent the Empress Dowager away and continued to discuss matters. At this time, everyone realized that the little emperor had gained the full trust of the Empress Dowager and began to delegate power to His Majesty.

"Your Majesty, the site selection of the salt farm has already come to light. With the assistance of local prefectures and counties, the Ministry of Works has surveyed most of the beaches and screened them. He thought that the three places are more suitable, so please let Your Majesty decide!" Qi Yaqing, the Minister of Works, presided over the site selection of the salt farm, said first.

"Well, please speak, Shangshu Qi, I will discuss with you all my dear friends." Zhao Bing nodded and said.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Qi Yaqing stood up and said, "According to Your Majesty's imperial order, I have selected three places. One is in Yangpu, Danzhou. There are villagers who dry salt. The methods are complicated, the yield is very low, and the area is narrow, which is not enough to meet the requirements of large-scale production. But the advantage is that there are skilled salt workers who can be produced after taking over the transformation. There is also a place where the Le'an water in Yazhou has vast tidal flats and the sea water concentration is the highest. The two mountains can be held to avoid wind and rain. However, it is located in a place where people are sparsely populated and very barren. There are many inconvenient transportation, and everything needs external supplies!"

"The other place is in the Xichanghua Army of the island. The tidal flats are large, and the area can be opened is less than 10,000 mu. The transportation is convenient, and there are villages and towns around it, which is easy to open. However, the amount of salt output is slightly less than that in Yazhou. If there is a big tide, it may be attacked." Qi Yaqing breathed a sigh of relief and said.

"What do you guys think?" Zhao Bing nodded and glanced at everyone and said.

"Report to Your Majesty, I think the Le'an River in Yazhou is the best place. Although it is barren, it is easy to transform and makes the most profits. It can be used as a key place!" Wen Tianxiang stood up first and said.

"Your Majesty, I think Danzhou is more suitable. There are already salt workers there and rich experience. You only need to mobilize people to make up for the shortcomings of the court. "6 Xiufu disagrees.

Zhao Bing was going to be bad as soon as he heard it. The two auxiliary members expressed their opinions one after another, which set the tone for the selection of the salt field. Then the people below could only choose one from two. What was even more troublesome is that the two people had different opinions. If they were not done well, they would have to be divided into two factions to start arguing. At this time, it was often not the choice was better, but it was turned into a dispute of will, which was not helpful for the solution of the matter, but it would delay the main business. If he participated in it, it would cause misunderstandings among the two ministers, thinking that they were in which side they were biased.

"Your Majesty, I think the Changhua Army is the best!" Just as Zhao Bing was in a dilemma, Xu Zongren, the Minister of Rites, stood up and said, "Your Majesty once had an imperial edict on the selection of the salt farm. There are three conditions, but only the Changhua Army has two of them."
