Chapter 508: Navy?
Yang Jing discovered the tragic discovery that he was getting more and more busy now. He thought that he would solve the salt merchant and everything would be fine, but he knew that there were more and more things. He was so busy that he would not touch the ground every day, which was really depressing.
These days, I have been staying on the platform every day. Either things need to be dealt with here or things need to be dealt with there. The leisure I originally imagined was impossible to find at all.
platform.
As busy as ever, in addition to those servants and those new soldiers, the emperor Yang Jiewei was even more busy.
...
"Since that's the case, then transfer Wu Sangui outside the pass and let him follow Man Gui and Zhao Rujiao to fight with the Mongolians." Yang Jie heard a bunch of reports from his servants, then asked Sun Chengzong, and finally came to this conclusion.
"I obey the order." Sun Chengzong replied.
"Who will change the defense in that place in Shaanxi? Master Sun sees who is suitable? There are many bandits in that place, and the new army needs to suppress it..." Yang Jing said again. The issue discussed today is that the territory of the Mongolian Imperial Army is about to expand, so the court should also send more troops to suppress it. Now, relying on the 10,000 men and the 10,000 men of Man Gui and Zhao Rujiao is not enough. Moreover, the 4,000 Zhao Rujiao still has to stay at Xifengkou to support it. In fact, there are only 6,000 elite soldiers on the grassland. Although there are also many border troops "idle", those people, Yang Jing and the General Staff, did not take them.
Use it as a support, that is, let them follow the new army to fight Qiufeng. The real combat power is still the new army. Therefore, the suppressed army must also increase capacity. Another important factor is that leveling up. After competing with the bandits, it is time to compete with the Mongols. After competing with the Mongols, it is time to compete with the wild boar skin. This is also the upgrade route set by Yang Jing. Even if Yang Jing is a time traveler, even if he is able to open a golden thigh, he does not expect that the newly trained new army can defeat the wild boar skin in the field. Those who need to level up will not stop at all.
"Report to Your Majesty, I think that there are no need for so many people to be there in the Shanxi merchant case now. Instead, one of Kong Youde or Geng Zhongming can be transferred to Shaanxi. This will further temper them!" Sun Chengzong replied again.
"Well, indeed, just transfer one of them to Shaanxi. In addition, when will the sea surface be thawed? This is also a matter of transporting money," Yang Jing said with a headache. Now that he has brought down the salt merchants, there are more troubles, and there is no reason for the headache.
"Return to Your Majesty, according to the latest returns, the sea surface should be completely unblocked in a few days. This troop transport ship is safer, so it's better to wait a few more days." Sun Chengzong replied.
"Well, indeed, I'd better wait until the seal is completely unblocked before leaving. If the ship sinks, it will be bad. The new army is my treasure. I can't afford to lose. By the way, I can still set out in advance. When I arrive in Tianjin, it's just right to catch up." Yang Jie said again.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Sun Chengzong did not refute.
"Then Master Sun see, who is more suitable to send? How should I handle the transportation of silver? But there must be no accident..." Yang Jing asked. Thirty to 40 million taels of silver are really eye-catching. If I lose or get robbed during the escort, it will be a strange story in the world. I guess I have to go to sweep the toilet with this face.
"Your Majesty, I think that one person can be selected from the monk Lei Dayong to be responsible for escorting the silver back to Beijing. In addition, the commander in the south is probably about the same, and he can also escort the silver back to Beijing together. Therefore, the people should be almost the same..." Sun Chengzong said again.
"Well, that's good. Now the south is supposed to send troops there, and Shanghai also needs to move in. This..." Yang Jing felt for no reason that one word was full of things, one after another, endless.
"Since that's the case, then transfer all the monk Lei Dayong and Kexi to the south. Shang Kexi leads troops to assist Fang Hongzan in escorting the money back. As for Lei Dayong, just take the fleet to Shanghai. It's time to build a military port in Shanghai, and the fleet also needs a place to settle down..." Yang Jie thought for a while and said.
"I have received the order, but Your Majesty, will this fleet of barbarians follow you?" Sun Chengzong agreed and asked again.
"The fleet of the barbarians? Well, let them follow. The time for the new army to be on the sea is still short. Let them learn more from the barbarians. As for the cost of employment, I will give it. If I can convince them to concentrate on working hard for me, it would be better. You might as well raise the conditions." Yang Jing thought for a while and said.
"I received the order!" After Sun Chengzong finished answering, he suddenly asked: "...Your Majesty, the navy and the barbarian fleet have been transferred away, what should I do about the coast of Liaodong?"
"The coast of Liaodong?" Yang Jing was in trouble. Although the salt merchants were defeated, they needed to re-arrange and re-arrange everywhere to try to fit their grand strategy and intentions. This really hurt Yang Jing's brain.
"...the coast of Liaodong..." Yang Jing took advantage of the sand table and looked carefully again. His mind suddenly dropped from the national level to the small strategic level outside the customs. Yang Jing was not smart enough.
"Your Majesty, Songshan Fort is near the sea. Now, Donglu surrounded Songshan Fort, which is very close to the sea. It can even be said that this section of the coastline has been controlled. The day before yesterday, several staff members used this section of the coast to send intelligence and firearms to Donglu, so they won the deduction. I think this is indeed a loophole, and it is also necessary to patrol this sea area strictly to prevent spies from approaching this section of the coast, and to prevent firearms from docking here. Once firearms such as cannons come ashore from coming from here, Songshan Fort is in danger... In addition, according to the idea of those staff members, Songshan Fort is very close to the sea, and water camps can also be used to harass. I see that the strategy of fighting Donglu and horses, it may be better to implement it on this sea. I believe that the effect should be better..." Seeing that the emperor had not made up his mind yet, Sun Chengzong mentioned another thing.
"Oh! And this is also happening! Sending the firearm to the shore?" Yang Jie was shocked! This was really quite surprising. Think about it, if someone really sent things like cannons to Songshan Fort, Songshan Fort would be really finished. What followed was the collapse of the entire plan. Looking at the distance from Songshan Fort to the coast, Yang Jie's heart beat wildly...
"This is indeed a loophole! I didn't expect that there are such talents in the General Staff? Who is that? If he hadn't reminded him, he would have missed a big deal!" Yang Jing's heart beat hard before he calmed down. Now the ice on the sea has not been completely unblocked, but the ships can indeed force the sea to go to sea. Although there is a certain danger, if the Donglu got the cannons and got it ashore, it would be a big trouble. Now it seems that the trick he missed must be made up as soon as possible. What's more obscure is that it involves the issue of power and territory. This thing that Yang Jing didn't care much before, but now he only feels a headache...
After being shocked, Yang Jie felt that this was good news. He was busy planning for the entire new situation recently. He was already busy and dizzy and had no intention of caring about Yuan Chonghuan. He did not expect that the "General Staff" that was basically supported by himself can now gradually cultivate talents by himself. If things look at this way, it is another good news. This is far better than relying on history to support himself. Now, history has changed its trajectory, and his advantages are gradually fading away. He can no longer do "magical operations". Now, it depends on people to confront people. Such people who can think about problems are indeed urgently needed.
"When you go back to your Majesty, this person is also a student of the new army, and his attendant on the platform is named Kim Yousun." Sun Chengzong reported.
"Well, Kim Yo-sun? Haha, I remember it, it's good." Yang Jing laughed when he heard it was this name. He was familiar with this name. He had seen it on the platform and had some impressions.
"Your Majesty wants to see you?" asked Sun Chengzong.
"Well, let's see." Yang Jing became interested. Yang Jing, who was not smart enough, needed someone to think about the problem for him.
After a while, a servant came, and Yang Jie recognized him all at once.
"Kim Yousun?" Yang Jing asked with a smile.
"The student is here!" Kim Yousun, who had just entered the platform, immediately stood attentively and bowed very seriously.
"No gift!" Yang Jingai said with a smile.
"Yes!" Kim Yousun then let go of his hand.
"I heard that when you were deducing, you used the coast of Songshan Fort to send the news and firearms to Donglu, so you won the deduction. Is there anything wrong?" Yang Jing asked with a smile.
"When you go back to Your Majesty, there is indeed this matter. Although it is just a deduction, the students think that the navy should be sent to patrol this section of the coastline strictly and prevent spies from using this section of the coast to convey information. In this way, Donglu is blind outside the pass, unable to see or touch anything. This is the fog on the battlefield that His Majesty often teaches us..." Jin Youshen replied immediately.
"Okay!" Yang Jing immediately applauded for these words. Yang Jing was quite pleased. The General Staff had been trained for so long and finally began to produce talents.
"Thank you for your praise." Kim Yousun quickly modestly.
"Then I ask you, what do you think of Yuan Chonghuan's strategy of asking for trouble for the Donglu horse?" Yang Jing became interested and planned to take the exam. He just needed someone to think for himself. Now he is busy with the layout of the entire world. Faced with the small situation where Yuan Chonghuan was outside the pass, he was not energetic and unable to do so. Instead, someone needed someone to think for himself.
"When you go back to your Majesty, the students think that the idea is good, but the implementation needs to be strong, and they must not be ambushed by the Dongliu, and they must not be discouraged. Even if they lose some, they must continue to implement this strategy. Even if they cannot win, it will be good to consume the Dongliu's strength." Kim Yousun began to talk freely.
After listening to it for a while, Yang Jie said nothing new, and it was almost the same as what he had heard before.
"Well, very good. I see that you seem to have a lot of insights into how to siege the Donglu, and I am proud of your reminder that the coast of Songshan Fort is indeed a big loophole and should be strictly prevented. I plan to send someone to take charge of this coast. I wonder if you are interested?" Yang Jing asked.
"Your Majesty, the student is willing." Kim Yousun blushed and immediately replied that he had been on the platform for a long time. He had been looking for an opportunity to release it, but it was rare! His seniors and brothers were all doing big things. They were so envious that they tried their best to find an opportunity to release it and go out to do something, but the emperor seemed to have forgotten their existence and just asked them to stay in the General Staff. Now that there is another opportunity, there is still no chance to let it go.
"Okay! You also know that Yuan Chonghuan's strategy of fighting the East Captain and probing horses is better. However, the east side of Songshan Fort is indeed a huge loophole, and it needs to be filled. So, you will be responsible for improving Yuan Chonghuan's strategy and filling in Shanghai. Do you understand? As for the ship, you can dispatch some from the Yousi Water Camp to you. If you beat it well, you will be punished if you break it..." Yang Jingai smiled. Since someone discovered this loophole, you might as well let the person you found try to plug this loophole. Yang Jingai doesn't have that much energy or mind to care about Yuan Chonghuan now.
"Students receive the order!" Kim Yousun immediately replied happily. Now he can finally stand alone. This opportunity is really rare. Thinking about his predecessors all have great prospects, Kim Yousun couldn't help but be excited.
After saying some encouragement, Yang Jingyu sent Kim Hee Sun away.
...
"Master Sun, the coastal coast of Liaodong should indeed be restored early, and it must be strictly prohibited. Especially in the Songshan Fort, information and firearms must not be allowed to land..." Yang Jingwei said seriously.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Sun Chengzong agreed.
"... Give Mao Wenlong some news and let his water camp go out to patrol immediately to avoid taking advantage of loopholes in the sea. His water camp is more reliable. In addition, the Songshan Fort section allows him to take special care of the Donglu. Although Kim Hee-sun, Kim Hee-sun is mainly busy with the exploration of Donglu's horses and may not be proficient in the sea affairs. As for Yuan Chonghuan, he should also remind him that his water camp should pay attention to this section and strengthen patrols. In addition, he must not have conflicts with Mao Wenlong. All state affairs should be put first..." Yang Jing thought about it and aggravated his tone. This issue is not a simple coastline issue, but also involves the issue of territory and power. No one wants to be inserted on his own territory. But now Yuan Chonghuan's water camp is too poor and does not take the responsibility. Mao Wenlong may not be willing to insert it into the territory that originally belonged to Yuan Chonghuan, which is a problem.
The coastline of Songshan Fort was originally a territory under Yuan Chonghuan's control, and Mao Wenlong would not have been in charge of it. Donglu could not transport things from this place and send intelligence. Therefore, this coastline has always been an irrelevant place and is not valued. However, it is different now. It is controlled by Donglu, so there is a problem... It was originally controlled by Yuan Chonghuan, which was Yuan Chonghuan's territory. Mao Wenlong and Yuan Chonghuan have never dealt with each other. In history, there were even more Yuan Chong.
Because Huan killed Mao Wenlong, Mao Wenlong would not care too much about this, so as to avoid a conflict with Yuan Chonghuan. Yuan Chonghuan's water camp ability is limited. Now it seems that this area has become the junction of forces and a forgotten place. There are indeed loopholes. Even if the firearm is not transported, Yang Jingwei does not want Donglu to get news from here. Yang Jingwei does not want Huang Taiji to know the situation inside the pass. Nothing else, he does not want to fight with others when the enemy map is fully opened.
"I received the order!" Sun Chengzong frowned and replied. He originally wanted to propose that the emperor hand over all the matters at sea to Mao Wenlong, but think about the disputes between Yuan Chonghuan and Mao Wenlong, and think about the disputes between Mao Wenlong and the coastal officials. This topic should not be mentioned for the time being. You have to find an opportunity. Such a general one-size-fits-all approach is a must. I am afraid that Yuan Chonghuan and the coastal officials will oppose it. Although they may not be able to resist the emperor, there are frictions and gaps between the officials who have been repaired, which will continue to split. It is not a good thing. I frowned several times and wanted to talk about this issue several times, but I didn't say it out. The disputes about interests here are not that simple.
"Oh, Master Sun is something wrong?" Yang Jie looked at Sun Chengzong who was frowning a few times, and looked at Sun Chengzong's hesitant expression, and knew that Sun Chengzong had something to say, his master would not frown in ordinary affairs.
"Report to Your Majesty, I don't know whether to talk about this matter or not." Sun Chengzong did not intend to hide it when he saw the emperor ask. He had to think of a solution in advance.
"What's the matter? Master Sun just talks about it." Yang Jingwei said.
"Report to Your Majesty, I am thinking that the loophole in Songshan Fort is actually the root of the distribution and jurisdiction of rights. Now, Mao Wenlong is in charge of one part and Yuan Chonghuan is in charge of one part, and each has its own water camp, and each has its own water camp, and the water camps are in charge of their own territory. This makes the sea junction have loopholes. I think that if one person can hold the matters at sea to be responsible, it will be more beautiful. In this way, there will be no gaps on the sea..." Sun Chengzong said his idea, but he also felt that this idea was unrealistic. For a long time, Mao Wenlong wanted to demarcate the boundary with Yuan Chonghuan, and even discussed the demarcation location and demarcate the boundary.
The east, including the sea, is under Mao Wenlong's jurisdiction, and to the west of the sea, it is under Yuan Chonghuan's jurisdiction. Yuan Chonghuan would not agree with this method of demarcation. Jinning's territory is too small and the water camp is not responsible for the matter. How big can it be? Therefore, in this secret, the two people are also fighting fiercely. The court also has their own opinions on this matter. Of course, most of them support Yuan Chonghuan. If he wants to support Mao Wenlong's jurisdiction over the sea, then Yuan Chonghuan's territory will be pitifully small and will definitely be opposed by many people. The interests involved are difficult to explain. Without saying anything else, what should be explained by the word "drift or not"?
"One person is responsible for the matter at sea? Did Master Sun say Mao Wenlong?" Yang Jing asked without hesitation. Now on the Liaodong Sea, Mao Wenlong's water camp is responsible for the matter. Yuan Chonghuan's, it is really not responsible for the matter.
"If you hand over the sea affairs to Mao Wenlong, it would be a good thing, but I'm afraid that the court will be under great pressure, and the matter will not be beautiful. Moreover, if you hand over the sea affairs to Mao Wenlong, Mao Wenlong is suspected of becoming a big shot, and he has to consider it..." Sun Chengzong said in embarrassment.
"Well, don't leave it to Mao Wenlong? Leave it to others?... Well, wait, wait, what did I remember,... Yes, yes! Why did I forget this? Yes, yes, yes, yes, should do this!" Yang Jing, who had been unable to understand his thoughts, at this time, his thoughts finally understood.
