Chapter 81 Countermeasures
Several people arrived in the house and took a seat. Ma Mingfeng ordered to see the tea. After chatting for a few words, he saw Chen Zilong first said: "Today, I came to visit Li Zhenniang, mainly because I heard that Li Zhenniang has a daughter who is not only beautiful but also virtuous. I want to take her as her adopted daughter. I wonder if Li Zhenniang can bear it? I wonder if Brother Ma is willing to see me take advantage of you?"
Li Zhenli naturally had received the news long ago. In fact, this matter was still what she asked for. So when she heard this, she immediately said with a smile: "It is Xiang Jun's blessing to be able to worship Mr. Chen, and I am not too late to be happy."
Ma Mingfeng also nodded repeatedly and said, "It is Xiang Jun's blessing to be able to worship Mr. Chen, and it is too late for the boy to be happy."
Chen Zilong looked at Ma Mingfeng with a smile and said, "I really didn't expect you to be so funny. He just learned other people's words to make me foolish. To be honest, aren't you worried about what you should call me when you see me in the future?"
Ma Mingfeng laughed and said, "Since you are Xiangjun's godfather, you will be my cheap father-in-law in the future, and naturally my old man Taishan, hehe, but since the old man is determined to marry me, he must buy some accompanying him. In fact, according to the son-in-law, there is no need to accompany you, just send your "Huangming Jingshiwen Edition" over. I heard that my father-in-law has the manuscript of Xu Guangqi's "Complete Book of Agricultural Affairs" in his hand, so why not send it together?"
Chen Zilong laughed and said, "I knew that your advantage is not easy to take. Hehe, Master Ma, who can make Hou Fangyu, one of the four young masters, retreat, and Master Ma who can make the girls in Nanjing crazy about it. How can you take advantage of your advantage so easily?"
Then Chen Zilong said seriously: "To be honest, if my works are valued, no matter how valuable they are, they are worthless in the eyes of people who don't know the goods, but if they are knowledgeable, they should be priceless. This is my work that I have worked hard for many years. I chose the text to make the Ming Dynasty, preserve the differences and differences, and pay attention to military and economic purposes, including politics, military, taxes and services, finance, farmland, water conservancy, schools, rules and regulations, etc., and prepare for the rules of a generation. The next master of the later students is my proud work in my life. If anyone knows this book, he will not take any money, and he will not sell it. If you really want it, I will actually record a copy and can get it for you, but you have to promise me that you must make good use of this book and do not let me down. Otherwise, even if you are a disciple of Mr. Shizhai, I will still condemn it!"
Ma Mingfeng also said with a serious expression: "Mr. Chen may not know anything. The boy has been fond of studying, military affairs, taxation, geography, finance, school and other matters since he was young, and he has been obsessed with it now. It's a pity that there are no corresponding books around him, so he can only talk about military affairs on paper and make empty talk. If he can get Mr. Chen to give it to him, it will be like a tiger with wings and a huge joy."
"Oh? Since you have studied military affairs, let me ask you, what military books have you studied?"
"I don't know much about it, but Sun Tzu still understands some of the 36 strategies of the Art of War. In addition, I am recently studying the "General Essence of the Successful Martial Arts" written by General Yu, and have some experience in the formation."
"Oh? You said you are studying "The General Essence of the Successary Wu Jing"?" Chen Zilong's eyes lit up and he said with surprise: "This book is indeed written by General Yu, but it has disappeared many years ago. I wonder where you came from?"
Ma Mingfeng did not hide it, so he told him about how he got to know Yu Zhenlong, how he had made a golden orchid with him, and how he was given a military book.
Chen Zilong sighed when he heard this, "I really didn't expect that there were so many twists and turns here. Yang Ge's master is so talented, but unfortunately his mind is so narrow. Now the personal soldiers around him are all distracted. I'm afraid he is not far from defeat. It's a pity that when Zi leans on him as the Great Wall today, if Mr. Yang dies, I really don't know where my Ming Dynasty will go?"
Ma Mingfeng sneered: "Actually, my Ming Dynasty is not short of good generals. Yang Sichang is nothing in it. Lord Sun Chuanting's talent is far better than him. In fact, it is not a problem of the ability of the general. The key is the person in the Forbidden City, who is in the ninth level, swaying left and right, and is also suspicious. The most hateful ones are those eunuchs. These people are both despicable and useless, and blackmailing and falsely accusing their own people very good. If they meet the enemy, they can only sit and watch. In fact, it is good to sit and watch. Many people fled at the first time, and some people waited, and they actually did Jiang Gan and directly conveyed false news. The person in the Forbidden City did not use his brain at all and directly fell into the counter-espionage plan. This is an internalist in the civil war and an outsider in the foreign war. Hehe, with these people here, how can Lu Gong be defeated? How can I be defeated in the Ming Dynasty?"
When Chen Zilong heard this, his expression changed drastically. He did not expect that the young man in front of him would be so bold that he even dared to blame the emperor. However, when he thought about it carefully, the other party was right. Although Zi was respectful to the wise and had great suspicion today, he sent those eunuchs who had no ability, no brains, no brains, no brains, no brains, and no more than a loss of trouble. This was not only useless, but also misled many major events, making the relatives feel sad and the enemy happy.
However, it is useless to just criticize. Those who do practical learning mainly consider how to reverse the situation. So Chen Zilong asked: "However, what should we do to turn the tide and turn the overall situation?"
Ma Mingfeng thought for a while and said, "In terms of selecting materials and cultivating talents, we must reduce talents in a variety of ways. Not only classics, but even talents from all walks of life in astronomy, geography, agriculture, medicine, and medicine should be selected and granted official positions; in terms of livelihood, taxes and service in disaster areas should be reduced and serviced, disaster relief grain should be dispatched to help the people; in terms of political affairs, redundant staff should be eliminated and expenses should be saved; in terms of military affairs, the elderly and weak should be eliminated, the military should be streamlined, and the evil military should be eliminated, and the military should be eliminated, and the military should be eliminated, and the military should be eliminated, and the Western fire should be actively purchased.
The equipment, trained soldiers who are skilled in using firearms, as for dealing with thieves, they can let the people form a group training. For those who are well-established, they will not hesitate to reward them. This will not only mobilize the civilian forces and save military expenses; in terms of diplomacy, they will imitate foreign trade, encourage foreign risks, and impose tariffs on merchants. This will not only give coastal people a way out, but also raise military expenses for the Qing army, killing two birds with one stone."
Chen Zilong was shocked when he heard Ma Mingfeng's words. He thought for a long time and felt that the countermeasures proposed by Ma Mingfeng were very bold, and even some were shocking. However, if he really did what he said, it would be absolutely no problem to defeat the Qing people's attack, and it might even bring the Ming Dynasty back to its former glory.
