After thinking through the matter and figuring out the current situation, Zhao Bing issued an order to Jiang Jin, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War who was staying in Qiongzhou, to deploy the general deployment of the Huguang Road to fight against the bandits, Han Zhen, the commander of the Privy Council, was the commander, and the sixth, seventh, eighth and ninety-four divisions crossing the sea and heading north, gathered troops to attack Jingzhou all the way, occupying this strategic location, and completing the strategic encirclement. At the same time, the Second Brigade of the Guards helped Huaiyong and Pinghai Army to capture Mingzhou Prefecture, occupy Qingyuan Road, and exempted the threat from the eastern wing of Shaoxing.

After Ma Tingluan took over Shaoxing Prefecture, he immediately began to rectify the situation. The current primary task was to eliminate the remaining forces of the Mongolian Yuan. After all, the emperor stayed here, and if something went wrong, he would not redeem it. With the cooperation of the First Brigade of the Guards, the cleaning was launched. There were precedents from Guangzhou and Quanzhou. First, a group of old officials were identified and replaced, and the merchants and travelers related to the Mongolian Yuan were arrested.

Shaoxing is close to Hangzhou, which is a place of prosperity for business. Of course, the greedy Mongols of money don’t know how to do this piece of fat. They are using their special identities to set up a business here, occupying fertile land, and thus becoming rich. There are countless Mongolians and Semi people gathered here, but they did not expect that the sky would change overnight. None of the ten people could escape, and people could run away, but they could not take it away after years of accumulation, and they were all sealed and deprived of officials.

What Zhao Bing did not expect was that although Ma Tingluan was gentle and elegant in his usual manner, he was not ruthless in killing people, even worse than himself. All Mongolian and Semu officials, from officials to officials who were sentenced to officials who were "suppressed" in the village, were executed, their family wealth was confiscated, and their family members were appointed as officials. And they were not polite to the officials of the Song Dynasty who rebeled and surrendered back then, regardless of whether you offered the city because the people were slaughtered, or if you opened the city to welcome the thieves in accordance with the "edict" of the Empress Dowager, and took them all; they were not merciless to the merchants and gentry who were investing in the enemy, and they all caught them in one go.

Ma Tingluan was so angry that Zhao Bing couldn't stand it anymore. He had no objection to killing the Mongols and his sluts. These people were beneficiaries of the Yuan Dynasty and the most stubborn supporters. Even if they surrendered in the current situation where the enemy was strong and we were weak, they would be a lie to think that they would change the sky. Once they fail slightly, they would jump out to help the enemy again. It would be better to kill them, so as not to leave any future troubles.

Zhao Bing, the former Song Dynasty officials who rebeled and took the initiative to help the enemy, did not have any mercy and executed them for the crime of treason. The minor children and female relatives were appointed as slaves. For passive surrendering to the enemy, only one of them was investigated for the crime of one's crime, and the family members were exempted. Those who could take the initiative to offer the city when the royal army came, the previous crime was exempted and the previous crime was dismissed and they were appointed. Of course, there were also those who used this to escape. This was different from the time when they attacked Quanzhou. They were walking around, and now they were going to stay with them. Therefore, no one surrendered without asking for details. It was not good for the future battle. After weighing them, they would still have their lives left.

As for the current fake official, Zhao Bing thought that he would still regard his official voice and public opinion, and then deal with it according to the law. Those who should be killed should not be killed if they should be killed. However, the gentry and powerful people in the countryside should also be treated differently. Those who are guilty of great crimes and are extremely aided by the evil and are resolutely suppressed and collected their property. Those who can safeguard the interests of the countryside, are eager for justice, especially those who are anti-Yuan and assist the Song Dynasty, should praise them and protect their rights and interests. After all, these people need to maintain the local area.

There are also those merchants, the business of officials, businessmen, Mongolians, and Semen were completely accepted by the government; the wealthy and big merchants, Zhao Bing thought that it would be difficult for these people to get rich if they had not colluded with the government and colluded with the Mongolians, so they had to crack down on them and dig deep into their crimes, of course, to solve military expenditures and expenses; among those, small merchants and handicraftsmen did not have to pursue them, after all, the circulation of materials is still inseparable from these people, and taxes will also be guaranteed by them in the future.

If there is punishment, there must be comfort. Officials and families of soldiers who died in the country should be praised and compensated. Land should be allocated first, tax exemptions should be reduced and exempted, and those with fame should be given priority to be re-entered. The people are the basis of rule and an important source of labor, soldiers and taxes. The rights and interests of those with bourgeoisie should be guaranteed. For the "proletariat", relief should be provided first, and then the situation should be clarified and the land should be allocated reasonably, so that those who ploughed have their own land and those who live have their own houses. However, Zhao Bing knew that these tasks were extremely cumbersome and could not be completed in a few days, and the current situation would not allow it, but postures must be done.

Taxes are the foundation of the country, and Zhao Bing is very cautious about this. After all, the war has just begun. The war will last for several years, or even more than ten years. No one can tell when it will end. The war is not only due to the human effort, but also requires huge financial support. It is impossible to satisfy the confiscation of enemy capital. Therefore, he cannot, nor dare to reduce taxes without authorization, and naturally he cannot completely restore the old system. He can only temporarily reduce some unreasonable donations and miscellaneous taxes to appease the people, and wait for the situation to stabilize and discuss with the ministers before deciding.

At this time, Zhao Bing also found that he had too little policy reserves for the battle to restore the country, and it was difficult to deal with new situations and new situations, and everything still needed to be improved. As a relatively representative city, Shaoxing decided to develop and improve it as a test field. Therefore, he issued several edicts in succession based on the situation and followed and summarized the implementation situation so that a complete set of policies could be formed so that there would be rules to follow in the future.

There is still a problem that can be solved at the moment, that is, it is late autumn, and Jiangnan is not as good as Qiongzhou for four seasons. A single dress can fool you for a year. The winter here is still very cold, and a single dress cannot survive the winter, so winter clothes must be prepared at present, and the number is not small, and at least 200,000 sets are required for one person.

After Zhao Bing discussed with Ma Tingluan, Xu Zongren and Chen Zhongwei, they also thought it was not too late. At this time, the army was fighting outside, and the distance in Qiongzhou was too far away. The winter passed by, and the other bases had limited financial resources and it was difficult to complete such a huge task. Only Shaoxing was a place of stability, and this place has been a traditional area for raising silkworms since ancient times. The annual silk production was huge and it was also an important source of taxation.

After conquering Shaoxing, a large amount of silk was accumulated in the treasury and a lot of them were copied. Now it is the harvest season for silkworm cocoons, and there is no shortage of materials for making cotton coats. However, the hospital is still in Qiongzhou, so there is something shortage of manpower. Fortunately, Shaoxing is much more developed than Qiongzhou's economy and the processing industry is many times stronger. Zhao Bing has already set a precedent in Qiongzhou's marketization, so he now uses subcontracting to hand it over to local workshops of all sizes and large, and finally solved the problem with money.

This incident also reminded Zhao Bing that the army is fighting outside, and the amount of gunpowder consumed every day is quite large, and it is unrealistic to transfer all the way from Qiongzhou to a thousand miles away. Especially in the trade wind season, it is even more difficult to ensure the transfer on time. This will definitely delay the opportunity for war, so the establishment of a later base is urgent. He also issued an order to Zhou Xiang to divide the gunpowder workshop and the gun bullet workshop into two, and come to Shaoxing with the next batch of supplies to establish a new workshop to prepare for the coming war.

Zhao Bing had a headache about the tedious government affairs, and now these things are all over him and the three old men. It really makes him worry about everything. He Ying Jieyan and Liu Fu stayed in Qiongzhou, and Wen Tianxiang is in Jiangxi. There is only the escort team led by Lu Xiufu who had been floating in the sea for a month in front of him. Recently, the work they did was equal to the two of them. He was not good at military affairs and was commanding and capturing Jiankang to annihilate the Zhending Army, but he did the work of the logistics minister. Not to mention that it was so awkward.

With this thought and a scapegoat, the two sides are in the adjustment stage before the war. Zhao Bing took advantage of this opportunity to issue an order to summon Lu Xiufu and lead the ministers of his escort to Shaoxing to discuss matters, and transferred the Fifth Division of the Imperial Army to assist in defense. Ma Tingluan and others were too busy, but at present there was a lack of manpower. The war was at a critical moment. It was time to convene a collective discussion to discuss the next plan, so they did not object, nor did they see through the little emperor's thoughts...

After receiving the order from the young emperor on the tenth day of September, Lu Xiufu and Zhang Shijie led a group of ministers and the Fifth Division to Shaoxing by boat. The army was stationed outside the city. Lu Xiufu and others changed their boats and came to the city to meet His Majesty. Ma Tingluan led people to welcome them into the government office. Zhao Bing was already waiting in the second hall. After the ministers met, they exchanged a few more greetings. Lin Zhiwu introduced the situation of annihilation of the enemy's new army, Yidu army and forced to surrender to Yingzhou army. Ma Tingluan talked about the Shaoxing Prefecture, and Zhao Bing informed the latest domestic and foreign incidents he had learned.

"Your Majesty, the current situation is extremely beneficial to our dynasty. Our army should take this opportunity to launch a full-scale attack and strive to complete control of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River before the pseudo-Yuan fight for the throne. Then we can resist the enemy by natural danger, stabilize the east of the Yangtze River, and then pacify the entire south of the Yangtze River!" Lu Xiufu said first after hearing this.

"What the Prime Minister of Land said is exactly, but it is still difficult for us to make an accurate judgment on when the battle for the pseudo-Yuan to fight for the throne will fall. However, the rainy season is about to end. After the Yangtze River enters the dry season, the water surface narrows, which will facilitate the enemy troops in the north of the Yangtze River to cross the river and also help the Yuan army fight. Therefore, I think the task of controlling important towns along the Yangtze River should be completed before the winter arrives in November. Of course, the longer the kids of Kublai Khan, the better. They rob the power, and we will take advantage of the chaos to grab the territory!" Zhao Bing said with a smile.

"Haha, Your Majesty is right, winter is conducive to the enemy's combat. If our army cannot control the natural dangers of the Yangtze River, there will be endless disasters!" Lu Xiufu also smiled.

"Your Majesty, our army brigade has been wandering outside the sea and waiting for fighter jets. It has been in the sea for more than a month. Now the food and grass are about to be exhausted. Soldiers rely solely on dry food to fill their hunger. If this continues, it may not only affect morale, but also reduce physical strength. I think it should be carried out as soon as possible to encircle and annihilate the enemy Zhending Army and take advantage of the victory to attack Jiankang!" Zhang Shijie said with a sad face at this time.

"What Shushu said is good. Tens of thousands of people floated on the sea, and they cannot be supplemented. They lack meat, fruits and vegetables, and their physical strength is difficult to maintain. It is time to move troops as soon as possible, but the Zhending Army seems to be hesitating and is reluctant to go to Pingjiang!" Zhao Bing nodded, but sighed.

"Your Majesty, we have sufficient troops to attack Jiankang and force their navy to fight us on the river!" Zhang Shijie suggested.

"It's not appropriate. Jiankang's city is strong and easy to defend but difficult to attack. The Zhending Army was organized by the northerners to defend the city. If they defend the city to the death, the attack may become a protracted war and restrain our troops; if they give up, they will leave room on the defense line and become a nail in our hearts. In addition, our troops seem to be sufficient, but there are still many important towns along the river to attack one by one, and other routes are progressing slowly. Even the most powerful Huai'en army has not yet arrived in Ezhou. In this way, our troops are still very tight." Zhao Bing shook his head and said.

"In addition, defending the Yangtze River must rely on the navy, and the enemy navy suffered heavy losses in the conquest of Japan and China. The Jingxiang Navy, Huguang Navy and Jianghuai Navy were basically completely lost. The coastal Navy Fuzhou, Quanzhou and Guangzhou Navy also lost its combat effectiveness under the repeated attacks of our navy. Now the only troops that can fight are the New Navy stationed in Longwan and the navy of Wanhu Mansion of the Liangdao. If we cannot annihilate it, it will cause trouble for our future defense, but if we do not leave the Yangtze River, we can escape to Jiangbei at any time."

"Your Majesty, but the enemy is refusing to send troops. Do we have to wait forever? If it really doesn't work, can we fight Hangzhou and mobilize the enemy first!" Zhang Shijie said with a worried look on his face.

"Hangzhou is now surrounded by us, and its troops are empty, leaving only the Yidu Army's baggage and leftover guards and some newly recruited village soldiers and archers. They take them like taking things out of their bags. They know that the enemy's army is willing to urge the Zhending Army to go south to reinforce. Even if we capture Hangzhou, we need a large amount of troops to defend. Obviously, we want to disperse our troops!" Zhao Bing said.

"Your Majesty, the Zhending Army has not moved for a long time, wouldn't it also make us very passive?" Lu Xiufu interjected.

"I will definitely move, they can't wait!" Zhao Bing said with a smile.

"Why is Your Majesty so sure?" Lu Xiufu said with doubts when he saw His Majesty's confidence.

"Left Prime Minister, Your Majesty has already dug a pit and is waiting for them to jump!" This was Ni Liang frowned and explained, "During the Battle of the Tomb Protection, Your Majesty ordered Dong Yicheng's troops to attack Liujiagang and rob their stored grains. The first brigade of the Land War occupied Pingjiang while the Yidu Army reinforced the Shangdu Army."

"So what?" Lu Xiufu pondered for a moment, but still couldn't understand the mystery, and asked with a frown.

"Prime Minister Lu, General Ni is stupid, I'll explain it!" Zhao Bing looked at the others and stared at him in a difficult situation. If Ni Liang said anything again, it would embarrass everyone and he took the conversation.

"Please explain your doubts!" ​​Lu Xiufu and others politely said.
