Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Five
Qian Yuan couldn't stand it. This was largely due to Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor with the lowest background in history, never had the idea of playing a game of chess in the country in terms of finance. He often made the case for matters and chose to solve the current problems as soon as possible.
Similar things also happened in local governments, but the government's strong self-repair ability can make some corrections. For example, the position of governor was temporarily set up for special management in his early years, but in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, he became an actual chief official.
Zhang Jingzai, who has the military affairs of the governor of the Zhejiang Province, is mainly responsible for two aspects: one is to ensure logistics supply, and the other is to be in Zhejiang, or to be precise, the Japanese pirates around Hangzhou Prefecture.
So without Li Tianchong's nod, Zhejiang Province could not squeeze out the money for Zhao Wenhua to use, which was also the fundamental reason why the latter was angry and bared at the former.
The government offices below naturally have money, but without Li Tianchong's permission, who dares to mobilize silver to recruit soldiers in large quantities?
Of course, Zhao Wenhua has this ability and courage, but it depends on whether it is worth it or not.
So, Qian Yuan’s idea is really poisonous. This is to provoke Zhao Wenhua to bite Li Tianpeng…
Zhao Wenhua repeatedly thought about whether Qian Yuan’s advice was reliable, whether Lu Bin could take on the heavy responsibility, which Fuzhou to attack...
However, Hu Zongxian and Qian Yuan had a chat. Both of them were pragmatists and had a strong spirit of hard work.
Qian Yuan started his business from scratch in his previous life and knew all about these things.
The most important thing Hu Zongxian did as the prefect of Hangzhou was to provide supplies to the surrounding officers and soldiers, and many ideas did not coincide with Qian Yuan.
Hu Zongxian is silent and solemn in daily life, but he talks endlessly about government affairs and speaks of eloquence.
To talk about the hardship Hu Zongxian had lived during this period, we should know that the court ordered Zhang Jing to be the governor of Zhejiang and to govern the troops of Jiangnan, Jiangbei, Zhejiang, Shandong, Fujian and Huguang, and acted cheaply, but did not mention the supply.
After all, the governor of Zhejiang was the first, and many things needed time to get started. In this case, as soon as the soldiers were out, the local government and garrison offices ignored them and let the government offices in Zhejiang, Suzhou, and Songjiang take charge. To be precise, the governor of Zhejiang and the governor of Yingtian.
Therefore, the supply of the officers and soldiers of Jiaxing Prefecture, which had been hit hard by the Japanese riots, was the Governor's Office responsible for the supply of the guest soldiers.
But Li Tianchong turned around and threw the responsibility on Hu Zongxian's head. During this period, his hair was so tired that he turned a lot white. When he woke up in the middle of the night, he was squeaking inside the house, and he wanted to bite Li Tianchong to death.
"There are two biggest problems at present, one is the poor source of troops, and the other is the poor supply." Qian Yuan analyzed carefully: "Even if the enemy soldiers win for a while, it will be difficult to station in the sea for a long time. Moreover, it is very expensive to come from afar. If you want to quell the Japanese, you still have to use materials locally and train again. The imperial court's order to recruit soldiers was a clear vision."
"The second is that the supply is not effective. As the younger generation saw with their own eyes, the officers and soldiers under Yu Dayou, Lu Tong and others were barely able to get through, but the rest... the military discipline was dispersed, and the soldiers and Japanese pirates were dispersed when they met in close combat. This was not only because they did not have blood courage, but also because they were not able to provide enough supply was also the key reason."
Zhao Wenhua woke up from his meditation and frowned and asked, "Zhancai, talk carefully."
"As for the soldiers of the vanguard in Hangzhou, they all do not farm and have no land to farm. They all make a living by doing business and selling goods. Earn silver is enough to support their families." Qian Yuan sighed: "Now the Governor's Office has ordered the training of soldiers. These soldiers are enclosed in the military camp, with no support at home, and the money is extremely small, and they are not enough for themselves..."
Hu Zongxian said quietly: "After all, it's a shortage of money..."
"Yes, let's just say it's simple." Qian Yuan smiled and said, "In the battle of Chongde, there was a bloody battle on the top of the city. The soldiers gradually lost their support. The village hero hesitated and refused to step forward. The younger generation ordered the killing of a Japanese man. The head level could be exchanged for thirty tael silver and cashed immediately..."
"What's the result?" Zhao Wenhua widened his eyes.
"So…" Qian Yuan pulled the corner of his mouth, "In the end, seven or eight village heroes made a pot of porridge at the top of the city... and grabbed the Japanese pirate's head on the ground."
"Money can understand the gods..." Zhao Wenhua sighed: "Everyone can understand the gods, what is it to kill a Japanese pirate!"
"Money can make ghosts push the mill. This sentence is placed in Zhejiang... Money can make ghosts push the mills push the mills." Qian Yuan smiled and recalled the historical materials he had read in his previous life. It seemed that although the Qi family army could fight, it was quite easy to spend money.
"It seems that you can try it..." Zhao Wenhua whispered: "There are a little more than a thousand people, just five hundred people, let Lu Bin do it."
"Okay, I'll write a letter tonight." Qian Yuan nodded calmly.
The three of them chatted for a while, and suddenly Yang Wen rushed over.
Qian Yuan frowned and went out of the pavilion, "What's wrong?"
"The Japanese pirates attacked many places along the coast of Zhejiang, and Li Zhongcheng, who was patrolling Shaoxing, was surrounded." Yang Wen whispered: "It's best to leave today if you want to go back to Songjiang."
"Okay." Qian Yuan walked back quickly and said briefly.
Zhao Wenhua smiled gloatingly, "I know what he is going to Shaoxing to do? Haha, I'm going to pay homage to Mr. Ji Quan."
Qian Yuan and Hu Zongxian both remained silent. Zhao Wenhua curled his smile and patted Qian Yuan on the shoulder, "Try your best, next year's provincial examination, and the spring exam the next year."
Qian Yuan sent the two out of the mansion, and hesitated for a while and pulled Hu Zongxian's sleeves, "Master Hu led the guerrilla Qi Jiguang and his juniors to take care of each other..."
Hu Zongxian glanced at Zhao Wenhua who was walking in front and nodded slightly.
After leaving the mansion, Zhao Wenhua smiled and turned around and asked, "What did the Qian family say?"
Hu Zongxian remained calm and bowed respectfully and said, "The food garden is exquisite and inevitably attracts people to covet it."
"I'm envious of this." Zhao Wenhua turned around and looked at him from afar, "It is said that he snatched it last year..."
"It's true." Hu Zongxian had already learned about this matter clearly. "He is deeply thoughtful, cruel, and he will be revenge."
"And there are many connections." Zhao Wenhua sighed, "You should be responsible for recruiting soldiers. Let Lu Bin go to Yanzhou Prefecture or Chuzhou Prefecture to recruit soldiers. Silver... If the local government office refuses, you will pay a little while for a while... Let's see how I deal with Zhang Tingyi!"
Hu Zongxian nodded, but was very surprised. It seemed that Zhao Wenhua was very confident in dealing with Zhang Jing...
When he sent Zhao Wenhua back to his residence, Hu Zongxian hesitated and asked: "Mr. Meicun, have you heard of the method of making a composition?"
Zhao Wenhua's body stiffened and he slowly turned around, "Add a bonus?"
"Yes, use silver and strength to arrange ten armors. If one armor is insufficient, then add the armor to supplement it, so it is called "released". Hu Zongxian gritted his teeth and whispered: "Only this method can gather a large amount of silver in a short time to serve as military funds."
Zhao Wenhua walked back and forth in the courtyard for several times, hesitating and proposing the composition method was indeed a solution, but he was afraid that he would be impeached if he had made a statement.
The reason is very simple. The so-called method of enhancing the organization is to add a delegation. It disrupts the original rotation sequence of each A. In the absence of military funds, insufficient first A will definitely become the norm.
Zhao Wenhua is a member of the Yan Party or Yan Song's godson, and his status is not low, but this kind of thing... Even if Yan Song covers up the sky with one hand, there are many young people in the Censorate.
Hu Zongxian took a few steps closer and asked softly: "Why... let the governor's yamen?"
Zhao Wenhua's eyes lit up and he nodded slightly, "Make it clean."
Hu Zongxian bowed and withdrew, feeling in his heart that this godson, who is truly Yan Fenyi, was carved out of a mold and wanted to grab the credit but refused to take responsibility.
However, Hu Zongxian didn't care. He was too clear about the consequences of the introduction of the composition method. This was not just a simple extra school.
Let Li Tianchong take the blame in front of him. Once something happens, with Zhao Wenhua's strong recommendation, he may not be impossible to reach the top in one step.
The ambitious Hu Zongxian thought so, and he was a little excited, a little depressed, and his mood gradually became depressed.
