Chapter 605
The suggestions made by Chen Zilong were naturally what Zhao Ming thought.
He was not unwilling to care about the situation in the Longwu court, knew Zhu Yihai's situation, and understood that he could not disobey the policies of the Longwu court.
However, in order to be the position of crown prince, Zhu Yihai was cautious and did not give Zhu Youjian an excuse to attack him. Zhao Ming was actually not optimistic about the practice of Zhu Yihai being cautious.
Once the emperor made up his mind to do anything, he could always find excuses, and even without excuses, he could do things.
Isn’t it just a false idea to kill Yue Fei?
Zhu Yihai said in a deep voice: "I still have to consider the intention of your family, after all, this is agreed by all the ministers!"
Seeing that Zhu Yihai did not mention the court, but considered whether the general officials could accept it, Chen Zilong knew that Zhu Yihai did not object to this proposal. After all, according to this method, the Zhejiang faction did not directly send troops to challenge the contract signed by the court and the Qing Dynasty.
This can not only help Donghai Town itself, but also enhance the combat power of the Zhejiang Group and facilitate the fight between Zhejiang Group and Longwu.
"Your Highness, these men are still led by the commanders. Donghai Town is responsible for the full set of equipment and supplies, and pays all the military expenses of the commanders. All the equipment after the war can be brought back!" Chen Zilong said immediately.
This is equivalent to Donghai Town spending money to ask Zhejiang towns to help with the war. The towns not only have money and food, but also get a full set of equipment and an army that has experienced the war.
This made Zhu Yihai moved. After the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the court used various reasons to limit the expenses of non-directed people, forcing Zhejiang towns to reduce their spending and lay off their troops.
Now it's just right, sending a group of people to Jiangdong is equivalent to asking Donghai Town to help them raise soldiers.
The key to whether the position of the crown prince is stable depends on whether the Zhejiang-based towns are strong and have enough support from the army. Unless Longwu wants to fight a civil war, the position of the crown prince Zhu Yihai will not be shaken.
At this time, Xia Wanchun also said: "Your Highness, I think it is feasible. This will not only help Donghai Town, but also the Qing Dynasty cannot be said to be the imperial court sending troops!"
Zhu Yihai stood up, walked back and forth in the flower hall for a few steps, suddenly stopped, and made up his mind and said, "Okay, I will write to the handsome ministers!"
Chen Zilong was immediately overjoyed, "I am on behalf of the military and civilians of the East China Sea, thank you for your help!"
Zhu Yihai waved his hand, "Boan Gu's arms, the military and civilians of Jiangdong are also Gu's children, Gu just supports Gu's children!"
At this moment, Zhu Yihai compiled several letters and asked Xia Wanchun and Chen Zilong to go to Jiangbei and Zhejiang to lobby for the general officials.
Chen Zilong finally breathed a sigh of relief when he received Zhu Yihai's letter. With the secret support of Zhejiang troops, Donghai Town was not fighting alone. Not to mention defeating the Qing army outside the pass, seizing the pass, and protecting Lushun and North Korea, there was no big problem.
To develop Nanyang, a large number of labor is required, preferably a batch of labor, with experience in farming or a skill, hard-working and high-quality labor.
The local natives in Nanyang do not have these conditions.
In Zhao Ming's opinion, the most suitable people to explore in Southeast Asia are China, North Korea, Japan, and even the Annan people.
These nations that have been influenced by Chinese Wenhua are generally hard-working and good at building.
If you want to quickly develop the Nanyang Ocean, you will definitely not be able to hope that the lazy and barbaric natives will not be able to do it. They can’t even farm well and have not established a decent civilization for thousands of years.
Zhao Ming's main goal of guarding Lushun is to protect North Korea, hoping to export a large amount of cheap and effective labor from North Korea after occupying South China Sea to help Donghai Town develop the South China Sea.
After all, Donghai Town only controls the three prefectures of Jiangdong, and with Taiwan, the registered population is less than 8 million, so it is still very difficult to develop Nanyang.
Because Donghai Town is now difficult to obtain population from the areas controlled by the Helongwu court in the north, if Lushun is lost and North Korea is in danger, even if Donghai Town defeats the Netherlands and Spain, it will not be able to develop the Nanyang in a short period of time.
Zhu Yihai has five great King Kongs, Zhao Ming, Fang Guoan, Zhang Mingzhen, Li Chengdong, and Wu Zhaosheng.
Wu Zhaosheng, a town, stationed in Nanjing, belonged to the Eastern Palace Guard, and all the generals were registered and booked, which was inconvenient to mobilize, so it was mainly to find the remaining three town soldiers.
These three towns were stationed outside, and there were much more troops than those registered in the booklets. Half of the soldiers and horses in the court had no files, which was just convenient for the implementation of the plan.
After Chen Zilong received Zhu Yihai's letter, he immediately left Nanjing with Xia Wanchun and went to Jiangbei. He first met the old coach Zhang Mingzhen, who was guarding Taizhou.
Zhang Mingzhen was Zhao Ming's old boss, and Zhao Ming had served as the leader of him. When Zhang Mingzhen saw Zhu Yihai's letter, he naturally wanted to help Zhao Ming. He immediately ordered his general Ruan Jin to change his name to Ruan Hu, leading a battalion of soldiers, took off his armor and equipment, crossed the river from Nantong, and headed to Jiangdong.
After meeting Zhang Mingzhen, Chen Zilong went north to Huai'an again to meet Li Chengdong.
Li Chengdong's defense zone is located on the front line of Huaijiang. Faced with the pressure of Ajige in Xuzhou, he needed to maintain a large army of large numbers, but the Longwu court repeatedly reduced his food and salary.
Now the court only gives him 30,000 people money and food, and he often owes him, but he has 100,000 troops, and his life is very difficult. He is worried that he cannot solve the problem of organization and food. After receiving Zhu Yihai's letter, he immediately responded to Chen Zilong's proposal and took this opportunity to knock on Donghai Town and asked Donghai Town to give him more money and food.
Chen Zilong naturally agreed to the vassal state, and Li Chengdong immediately expressed that he would send 6,000 troops to Jiangdong. However, Zhao Ming borrowed several of his officers last time, and none of the officers came back. This time, Li Chengdong was careful and sent Li Yuanyin to secretly, so that he could firmly grasp the command of the 6,000 troops to avoid being annexed by Zhao Ming.
Li Chengdong just chose the officer he borrowed last time, not a confidant, so he was deceived by Zhao Ming and didn't want to come back. It was not considered that Zhao Ming was capable. This time he sent his son Li Yuanyin. If Li Yuanyin didn't come back, then Li would really be convinced by Zhao Ming.
After convinced Zhang Mingzhen and Li Chengdong from Jiangbei, Chen Zilong immediately arrived in Hangzhou again, met with the Duke of Yue Fang Guoan, and brought two instructions.
First, let Fang Guoan send troops to Huai'an, increase the strength of the Huaihe River line, and restrain the Qing army in Xuzhou. Second, I hope Fang Guoan can send a group of troops to join Donghai Town and reinforce Liaodong in the name of Donghai Town.
In the Duke's Mansion Hall, Fang Guoan read Zhu Yihai's letter and smiled, "That is, your highness has an order, so I will naturally obey the order!"
Chen Zilong was overjoyed when he heard the words, "In this way, Donghai Town is so grateful to the Duke!"
Fang Guoan received the letter and said to Chen Zilong: "Class Chen, go and rest. I will make arrangements!"
