Wishing You Eternal Happiness Chapter 529: : Collusion between officials and bandits
This is the young hero that Mr. Xianyun praised endlessly.
After the Zhou family was rehabilitated, the emperor allowed Zhou Linghuai to enter the Tengwen Museum and participate in the compilation of the "Collection of Documents". After this matter spread, many people in Beijing talked about this matter and this person.
Because Zhou Linghuai's reputation was not well known, many people felt that he had wasted his reputation and that entering the Tengwen Museum was a sign of the emperor's grace.
Later, a student from Youzhou could not help but sneer: "But you are ignorant and ignorant. The peaceful days in Beijing have been too long, and you have become the frog well people who only know how to talk. , sit in the well and look at the sky."
"Four years ago, the Di people invaded the north. It was Zhou Gongzi who took off his illness and helped Yin Shizi raise food and grass in a short time, and helped Yin Shizi stabilize the situation in Youzhou. Yin Shizi now had no worries and brought the Three thousand elite soldiers from the royal palace guarded and supported the battlefield. Only then did Prince Yin and eight thousand elite soldiers led by Harmon meet on a narrow road, and with three thousand elite soldiers, they killed Harmon and fled."
"..."
As soon as this matter was mentioned, some people became curious about Mr. Zhou and asked many questions.
It was later learned that Mr. Zhou was so weak due to congenital deficiencies that he had difficulty even walking on the ground. He had been sitting in a wheelchair since he was a child and lived in seclusion.
So he has read books all over the world and is extremely talented, but his reputation has never been known.
It made everyone sigh for a while.
After hearing this, he was not surprised.
Song Mingzhao only realized that there are people outside and mountains outside the mountains. He changed the subject: "The Jiangdu Si Qianshi and the general office are in the Zhejiang Dudu Commandery Department, which is within the jurisdiction of the Zhejiang Dusi. Zhejiang Dusi is directly under the Zuojun Dudufu. After Song Xiuwen's case was investigated, he was imprisoned. Recently, there have been frequent disturbances by Japanese pirates and bandits in the coastal areas of Zhejiang."
Mrs. Yu frowned: "Is it always like this before, or did it become like this after Song Xiuwen was imprisoned?"
Yu Youyao understood immediately upon hearing this that her grandmother suspected that Song Xiuwen and even the entire Zhejiang Dusi were colluding with Japanese pirates and bandits.
Song Mingzhao put down his tea cup: "Master Yu secretly visited the soldiers who were discharged due to injuries and illnesses. According to them, Japanese pirates and bandits along the coast often come ashore to commit mischief, and they only fight in small ways. Therefore, the navy suppressed them. The intensity of Japanese and bandit suppression is not high, but compared to the past, Japanese pirates come more frequently these days."
Mrs. Yu’s face darkened.
Presumably they are also Japanese pirates and water bandits. They have often disturbed the border, but now they are more frequent than in previous years. Without conclusive evidence, we cannot say that they are colluding with Japanese pirates and water bandits.
The Dusi of Zhejiang took control of the naval forces along the southeastern coast and mobilized the whole body. Without evidence, the court could not do anything to them.
On the contrary, when Japanese pirates and water bandits were rampant, naval operations were indispensable.
Otherwise, when Japanese pirates and water bandits come ashore to do evil, the court will also suffer losses.
You are really confident!
Zhou Linghuai smiled lightly: "Song Xiuwen's case directly affected the entire Zhejiang Dusi, and even the Zuo Army Dudu's Office was involved. Everyone in Zhejiang officials was in danger, and the navy was also distracted. Without capable generals, the division is like a paper tiger. It cannot stop the Japanese pirates' ships even if they think about it. It will be a matter of time before the Japanese pirates come ashore. At that time, the court will be faced with a problem, that is, whether to exterminate the Japanese pirates first or to kill them first. Rectify Jiangnan?"
This is the Zhejiang Navy's method of dealing with the imperial court, and it has strangled the imperial court by the throat.
If the Japanese bandits were exterminated first, the imperial court would be inseparable from the Zhejiang Dusi, and the rectification of Zhejiang would not be possible. The Zhejiang Navy would become even more rampant and not take the imperial court seriously.
If Zhejiang is rectified first, it is inevitable that Japanese pirates and water bandits will invade the coastal areas. By then, Japanese pirates and water bandits will rob official ships and merchant ships at sea, causing huge losses to the court. They will burn, kill and loot ashore, which will completely destroy the dignity of the court.
No matter how you choose, the court will not get a good result.
How should the court choose?
Yu Youyao frowned: "Dusi of Zhejiang, you are determined to accept the generals sent by the imperial court, but you can't command the Zhejiang Navy? Is that why you are confident?"
In this case, why did my cousin plot to go to Zhejiang for Ye Hanyuan?
When Song Mingzhao was about to speak, Zhou Linghuai explained: "Master Ye is not proficient in water warfare. He will not be able to conquer the Zhejiang Navy for a while. After he goes there, he will still need time to learn water warfare."
Yu Youyao understood immediately after hearing this: "However, the Zhejiang Dusi, Japanese pirates, and water bandits may not give Mr. Ye the time and opportunity to learn. As soon as Mr. Ye arrived in Zhejiang, he had not yet taken control of the navy. The Japanese pirates and water bandits should It's disturbing. If this battle is lost, Lord Ye's authority in Zhejiang will be wiped out, and he will be even more unable to control the navy. If he can't survive two or three years, he should be transferred. The worse situation is that the Japanese pirates and water bandits will become evil. If there is trouble, the court will still ask for punishment."
It’s no wonder that Zhejiang Dusi is so confident.
Song Mingzhao nodded: "This situation is not new in Zhejiang. If there had not been Li Qiguang's rebellion and Ning Yuanbo's accusation against Song Xiuwen, Song Xiuwen would have been transferred back to the coastal area of Shandong next spring."
Unfortunately, things are unpredictable and Song Xiuwen never got over it.
Yu Youyao understood. Although Song Xiuwen arrived in Zhejiang, he did not completely conquer the navy.
Song Xiuwen was probably accused of being a scapegoat for Zhejiang Dusi.
Yu Youyao's face was not very good-looking, and she couldn't help but look at her cousin: "What should Master Ye do when he arrives in Zhejiang?"
Song Mingzhao was frowning, and Zhou Linghuai said quietly: "You can only train navy masters yourself."
Song Mingzhao's expression moved slightly and he couldn't help but turn his ears.
Yu Youyao frowned: "But it is not easy to train a navy. Within a year and a half, the navy will not be able to fight at sea. Even after a year and a half of training, it is not as good as the Japanese pirates and pirates who stay at sea all year round. Water bandits."
Zhou Linghuai smiled half-heartedly: "Not all bandits at sea do evil. There are also bandits who specialize in robbing Japanese pirates. If the army can be organized and reorganized, it can also become a powerful force. Moreover, the Zhejiang Navy~IndoMTL.com~ has attacks every year Many soldiers were discharged from the army due to injuries and illnesses. Why? Because the money they received, apart from household expenses, did not have any extra money to treat their illnesses. As long as they were lured with benefits and recruited again, they were very willing to return to the navy. ”
An understatement that hit the nail on the head ended the Zhejiang Navy's predicament.
He took a trip to Zhejiang and had a secret conversation with Song Xiuwen before he learned about the current situation of the Zhejiang Navy. Zhou Linghuai had already seen the whole picture while he was in Beijing.
Song Mingzhao said quietly: "The bandits on the water are not easy to contain."
Song Xiuwen was also a very capable general. After he was transferred to Zhejiang, he tried to recruit water bandits and recruited new veterans, but he failed.
He does not deny Ye Hanyuan's ability.
It’s just that Ye Hanyuan used to be in the northern border and was not proficient in water warfare. It would be even more difficult to recruit water bandits.
————————Digression——————
I don’t plan to write about the plot of Jiangnan, so I will explain the situation in Jiangnan. This is a story about strategy + house fighting + romance. Strategy is the first priority, so there are many situations about the court in it. Every situation is , are all related to the overall situation. If they are not explained clearly, the subsequent situation cannot unfold.
The superior of Zhejiang Dusi is the Zuojun Dudufu, so when the situation in Zhejiang is over, he goes directly back to Jingzhao. Therefore, the situation in Zhejiang must be explained, otherwise there will be no connection.
The author's plotting situation will not be a rake in the east or a stick in the west. You may as well calm down and take your time to read~ You will not be disappointed~
