Chapter 252 Li Jinglong's waste accident(1/4)

Fang Shiyu clenched his fist and said helplessly, the Jiujiang River broke its dike and the flood flooded into the Ganjiang River. The entire Ganjiang River had floods to varying degrees.

Zhu Ziyi said: "I can't control this thing. No one can predict that God will suddenly rain so heavily. There is not much food left in the court in the past two years."

After pursing his lips, he was still full of anger, but most of his anger disappeared in an instant.

Fang Shiyu stood up and said, "You are pregnant, so you should go into the house and sit. It will be cold outside and you will get sick."

Zhu Ziyi said, "That's not possible. You're bored outside alone. I can't make money, and I don't understand political affairs. The consumption of this family is so annoying. The King of Wu said that he had successfully proposed marriage and was scheduled to get married in April next year. The court cannot pay for the wedding ceremony, and he has to pay the money from the treasury."

Zhu Ziyi muttered, holding the key in her hand and said, "You should take this thing back and calculate it yourself. Anyway, it doesn't matter if I hold it."

The key to the treasury was placed on the stone table. Zhu Ziyi looked bored and lazy, and yawned and said, "It's too cold outside. I'll go back first. If you want to eat here tonight, remember to order Shangshen Bureau as soon as possible! Avoid that time, people will deliver the meal, but they won't give you the one." Zhu Ziyi stared at Fang Shiyu with a slanted look.

With his head down, Fang Shiyu didn't say anything. The maid next to him helped Zhu Ziyi into the room.

Looking at the key to the treasury on the stone table, Fang Shiyu smiled bitterly and said, "I want this broken thing to be useful." Taking a deep breath of air conditioning, Fang Shiyu knew how much money the treasury was, and those real money and silver were not allowed to lead to the market.

At least the court prohibited it.

If the treasure banknote does not collapse, the gold and silver can only become a strategic reserve. It is a pity to eat it.

After looking at Wei Hongcai beside him, Fang Shiyu said, "Send the key back to the queen and tell him that I will not have meals in Kunning Palace tonight!"

"No~" Wei Hongcai hurriedly stepped forward and entered the room with the key and gave it to Zhu Ziyi. When he walked out of the room, Fang Shiyu had long disappeared!

A month passed in a flash.

In the Palace of Peaceful Heart, Fang Shiyu looked at Meng Temu and said, "Do you Jurchens only have more than 4,000?"

"Report to your highness, there are only 4,300 Han Jurchens in Xingzhongwei, and there were originally more than 4,800 people, but they were damaged on the Korean battlefield."

Meng Temu didn't expect that he had been in the capital for so long, and the court kept making great moves, all of which were dealing with heavy rains in the south of the Yangtze River.

He had already had any expectations for seeing Fang Shiyu no longer existed, but he could not have thought that Fang Shiyu would summon him.

Fang Shiyu said: "Meng Temu, can you still remember where you came from?"

Meng Temu bowed to the ground, arched his head hard, and said bluntly: "Tungus."

"The soldiers of your clan have made great contributions in North Korea and have protected their flanks and made clear rewards and punishments in the court, but I have no good idea in your clan, but the population in your clan has withered."

"The remnants of the Jurchens who rebeled in Haixi and Jianzhou, and the rebels of Jurchens who moved in the country caused considerable damage to the mainland, cruel and bloodthirsty, and refused to accept Wang Hua."

"I often wonder whether such a tribe, Tian Cunzhi, was just to kill the people of the Ming Dynasty. I read all the ancient books and the female straight tribe who came over to Tungus back then!"

"Some of them, crossing the ice ocean in the extreme north, some of them head south to Ainu, and some of them are your Jianzhou, Haixi, and the North Mountain Wild Jurchens."

"I'll give you a chance to find people in the tribe, are you willing?" Fang Shiyu looked at Meng Temu and Ainu. It was the closest place to Japan in the north of the Ming Dynasty.

The Jiangnan matter has achieved some results. Although the war in the southwest cannot be put on the agenda in a short time, the countries in Japan should be taken down.

After all, Fang Shiyu has to do a lot of things to Japan

Meng Temu was stunned and said, "Meng Temu wishes to serve His Highness the King of Heavenly Thunder forever, and has no other intentions. He is more determined than Guan Gong, and he is more grateful to the King of Heavenly Thunder for his clarification!!"

Meng Temu couldn't react for a moment.

Good guy, I have only been a few days of stable life and I am about to get out of here? He is not unaware of Ainu's place.

But he finally took the 4,000 tribe members to find a half-time position in Xingzhongwei. Although there was no big reward for this Korean Battle, he was still getting more and more hopeful.

Go to find your own tribe? Go to Ainu? The place where birds don’t poop, survival is difficult.

Fang Shiyu said: "I know you are loyal, and I also know that the warriors of your clan are extremely loyal. I just have more important things to leave to you."

There was a smile on his face, and he didn't know whether what Fang Shiyu said was true or not. Meng Temu looked entangled and said sadly: "Please let the Heavenly Thunder King make it clear!"

"Simple, take your tribe members to wipe out the remnants of the Jurchens in Haixi, gather the Jurchens in the northern mountains, and take down the Ainu place."

"From the north, we will form a stimulus against Japan. The court will use troops in Japan in the coming year. If you can successfully take down Ainu and make achievements on the battlefield of Japan."

"It will not be impossible to be like the Duke and Marquis Wan Dai in the future." Fang Shiyu said calmly, and Meng Temu heard Duke and Marquis Wan Dai, his eyes narrowed, and he looked directly at Fang Shiyu's shoes, and said respectfully: "The King of Heavenly Thunder is interested, and the servant (the last general) is crushed to pieces, and he will not let you down!"

Meng Temu's words were extremely respectful. After Fang Shiyu knelt down and bowed, Meng Temu raised his head timidly and cowardly after hearing Fang Shiyu's laughter.

Wei Hongcai stepped forward and said, "Go out, your highness has finished speaking!"

Although Meng Temu had a lot of dissatisfaction with this little eunuch in his heart, he still bowed and knelt down and said, "I will take my leave!"

As he said that, under the care of Wei Hongcai, Meng Temu left the palace, and then the eunuch on duty took Meng Temu away from the palace.

Wei Hongcai turned to the Taoist palace and bowed and said, "Your Highness, your grandfather is not my race, and his heart will be different. The Jurchens are now in dying, which is not worth worrying about, but if they are in Ainu in the future, they will raise tens of thousands of soldiers."

"It's a threat to the court."

Wei Hongcai quickly spoke up to comfort him.

No one knows whether Meng Temu is loyal. Even if he is a loyal and loyal minister, will his descendants be loyal to the court?

"So what? He couldn't support a hundred thousand troops in Ainu, that place, and another island area. They rebelled on it, facing the fifteenth uncle in the south and the navy fleet of the court."

"Even if he has a million troops, he can only starve to death in Ainu!"

Fang Shiyu glanced at him and said, "Go and let the people below tell him that the people in Ainu have withered, so that the more people he brings, the better."

"According to the military expenditure, the court will pay for it according to the standards of the local army!" Fang Shiyu sneered. The place in Liaodong was still too important to the Ming Dynasty, and it was a top-notch treasure land.

If Liaodong is lost, the entire Ming Dynasty will face severe threats, and then the two large grasslands in the south and north of the desert may be lost.

At that time, what will happen will become unpredictable.

But if most of the Jurchens living in Liaodong were moved to Ainu and expanded their territory for the imperial court, they could not only control the Jurchens, but also pick up an elite soldier for free, why not do it?

As for whether they were obedient, no matter what, the Jurchens of this period were still very obedient, and those who were disobedient were almost dead!

Just after seeing Meng Temu away, Fang Shiyu had not yet waited for her butt to warm up, Tie Xuan and Xia Yuanji came to the Palace of Harmony together.

The two of them just bowed and Xia Yuanji stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, something happened."

"As such a big empire, nothing happened that day. Let's talk about it, what's wrong?" Fang Shiyu said in a deep voice. This empire is indeed very large.

No matter what trivial matters or the rebellion of the Miao chieftains can be considered a matter.

"The 80,000 troops of Dongchahatai raided Hami Guards and rushed into Jiagu Pass. They were in charge of Zhangye and had been besieging Zhangye for seven days. The court just received the war report!"

General Tie Xuan handed the report to Fang Shiyu.

Suddenly, Fang Shiyu stood up and did not go to read the military newspaper. He walked straight to the map of the world. The Hami Guard was on the western edge of the southern desert grassland and was always in the hands of the Ming court.

Now that the Hami Guard has been lost, Dongchahatai invaded the Hami Guard and surrounded Zhangye City, saying in a deep voice: "I don't want to show the court how many household registrations they have."

"Your Highness, this may be just a reason. The floods in Jiangnan, the imperial grain production was reduced, and exports were eliminated. Dongchahatai has no results after talking to Yang Ge Lao."

"It may be because the court did not sell food, so they changed it to rob it." Xia Yuanji said embarrassedly.

The imperial court did not sell food because of the flood in the south of the Yangtze River. The empire's grain reserves had reached the prescribed red line range, and a grain of rice was absolutely not allowed to leave Guancheng.

Fang Shiyu followed the Beijing-Ganzhou official road and extended all the way to Beijing City, and then said, "Where has the Beijing-Ganzhou official road been built?"

"The official road from Pingyang to the capital can already be used, but it will be farther from Pingyang to Dingborder Pass and enter Gansu through Ningxia. If it does not leave Dingborder Pass, the food road may be cut off by Tatar Tumote when the court faces Dongchahatai!"

Before Xia Yuanji came, he had already thought of countless plans in his mind. He could still use insufficient money and food to speak without support from the imperial court invasion.

But now that people invade, they will be able to sell their money and must be killed.

Fang Shiyu nodded and said, "From the capital to Pingyang, if you don't go to Ningxia in the border, go directly from Tumote, let Tumote send troops together and follow the court to wipe out the rebellion!"

"Wei Hongcai!" Fang Shiyu shouted, the military situation was like fire, and it was urgent to be imminent. Once Zhangye City was broken, the little majesty of the court in the northwest would be gone.

What's more, the Ming Dynasty's control and invasion of power in the Western Regions was not very attentive, and it can even be said that it completely ignored that place.

Wei Hongcai hurried forward and bowed, "Your Highness!"

"It is said that the Seventh Army Governor's Office and Wuying Hall discuss matters. Everyone must be present!" Fang Shiyu issued a strict order directly. I don't know what happened in the past few days. There are often a lot of vacancies in the Seventh Army Governor's Office.

I don’t know if anyone is on duty in Wuying Hall at this time.

Wei Hongcai left in response.

Fang Shiyu asked, "The 80,000 troops in Dongchahatai were invaded, the four cities of Gandhi were less than 20,000, and Jiagu Pass was even less than a few."

"I'm just afraid that when the Central Army moves, the Tatars and the thorns in the north of the Moon will go south when they hear the wind, and the seven guards in the south of the Moon will become nails that will be pulled out one by one."

"Although the grain prices in Jiangnan are stable, they continue to be between 19 and 28. The grain in Beijing can only barely cope with the autumn harvest in northern Xinjiang next year."

With his right hand clenched his fist and lowered his forehead, Fang Shiyu pondered for a moment and said, "Is there any way to solve the problem of food!"

It is not easy to send troops. The Central Army has only 280,000 people in the company. If you go to Zhangye City, you will have a chance to invade the south. Although it may give Tatars a chance to invade the south, it will not give Tatars a chance to enter the border town.

It's just a dangerous signal.

What really troubles the Ming Dynasty was the food problem.

Xia Yuanji said: "To solve the food problem, we should start with merchants. However, the imperial court's finances are limited, and the floods in the Ganjiang River are almost completely out of stock this year."

"The court's finances are extremely difficult, unless it is issued with treasure money!" Xia Yuanji said, and shook his head again: "Once it is issued with treasure money, treasure money will be worthless again."

After sitting in the position of Minister of Revenue for seven or eight years, Xia Yuanji was still clear about Fang Shiyu's purpose of restoring Baochao, and the existence of Baochao did greatly promote the commercial development of the Ming Dynasty.

Purchase trade.

After pursing his lips, Fang Shiyu suddenly smiled and said, "Tie Xuan, how long can Zhangye last?"

"The military newspaper said that Dongchahatai does not have large-scale siege equipment, but if it is siege, Zhangye has a lot of grain reserves, enough to supply more than 20 days without any food. If you save some money, you should be able to last forty days!"
