Chapter 129: Bigger and stronger

Yes, our family really puts military power.

As everyone in the Zhejiang Army thought, Eunuch Wei gave up the command of the joint fleet.

High moral character, high moral character!

My father-in-law was very satisfied with the surprise look of the Zhejiang soldiers looking at him, including the slightly opened bearded mouth of Ningbo Mansion with the small eyes.

In ancient times, Kong Rong gave up pears, and now I, the eunuch Wei, gave up power, are all wise men!

Since ancient times, there have been matters involving power and important weapons involving the country. How many people can give up their military power?

My father-in-law dared not say that he was the first, but it should be fine to be ranked in the top ten.

Of course, if the military power is given up just to pursue a wise reputation, the father-in-law can only do it unless he calls Dada and Erer on his forehead.

The command of the joint fleet was handed over to Shi Dezheng and Shen Yourong, which was decided by his father-in-law when the Special Administrative Region planned to establish a joint fleet. For this reason, he summoned a group of naval generals, especially the naval general Wang Dali, and bet with them all night. After losing several thousand taels, he was eager to convince a group of naval subordinates.

It is easy to seek thousands of troops, but it is rare to have talents.

My father-in-law never thinks he is a material for leading troops to fight wars. He is just a good thing to bet on women, but he is really not good at leading troops to fight wars, especially naval battles.

It’s like a mountain that’s across the road.

Since you don’t have this ability, you might as well find someone with the ability.

As a gang of three heroes, Shen Yourong is a famous general in the world, especially Shen Yourong is very powerful. He has both water and land. Not only can he kill Tartars in Liaodong and Jizhen, but he can also sweep away Japanese pirates and red-haired ghosts at sea. He is a real omnipotent talent.

When Fujian Governor Jin Xue established the expeditionary army, the commander of the Japanese was Shen Yourong. If it were not for the Japanese invasion and retreating, Yang Yinglong, Bozhou, would have rebelled, Shen Yourong would have been famous for his commander of the Japanese forever.

Since Shi and Shen are so powerful and are close to you, there is no reason why my father-in-law doesn't "club" them for their own use. My father-in-law can still give him the command of a mere joint fleet.

More importantly, if Shi Dezheng and Shen Yourong became the commander-in-chief and chief of staff of the joint fleet, then there would be no reason for Zhejiang not to treat the joint fleet as a treasure. In this way, whether it is the Zhejiang Party or the officialdom in Zhejiang, who would be willing to "withdraw shares" from the joint fleet after the Eastern Expo is completed?

Zhejiang does not withdraw its shares, and Fujian has no reason to withdraw its shares.

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Fujian has always been the leader of Zhejiang. This is determined by the political structure in the early Ming Dynasty and now. The reason is not that Fujian Province insists on recognizing Zhejiang as its eldest brother, but that Fujian has not produced many Jinshi as Zhejiang, and Fujian people have insufficient political influence in the court. The fundamental reason is that the Fujian dialect is difficult to understand.

There are clear rules for the dynasty that the ministers of the imperial court do not enter the cabinet, and there are also hidden rules for the Fujian people not to enter the cabinet.

Therefore, if a commander and a chief of staff can tie the elite Zhejiang soldiers' water and land forces, including Fujian soldiers, to the ship of the father-in-law, it will be cost-effective if the father-in-law doesn't visit the kiln for half a month.

Military power is actually a symbolic meaning.

If you can fight, lead your troops.

As long as the eunuch in the military supervision exists, my father-in-law doesn’t have to worry about the Zhejiang Party being able to kick him away. At least, before the emperor’s death, the Zhejiang Party will not be able to drive him away from Wei Jianjun no matter what.

"This is the holy intention, so there is no need to refuse the two generals."

My father-in-law made a decision after a word, but he did not allow Shi Dezheng and Shen Yourong to refuse humbly, so he made the decision on the spot. Then Yu Shi and Chen said:

"The joint fleet was established by Your Majesty, and it is the pillar of the sky in the southeastern sea, and the foundation of the peace and stability of our sea. In the future, our Ming Dynasty's coastal defense will depend on the joint fleet. So what Your Majesty said clearly to us is that this joint fleet must be bigger and stronger, and should be able to be the leader of capable people, and our family must be unconventional and use only talents.

When we arrived at our house, we didn't have any other explanations to the two generals. In just one sentence, our joint fleet, if there are any system, training, garrison, and personnel problems, you two must tell us, boldly say, don't worry, don't worry

Our family is a eunuch. In the eyes of outsiders, we are His Majesty's slave. Those who give face call us father-in-law, and those who don't give face call us dog eunuchs. Hey, it doesn't matter. What's wrong with calling our family is whether our family can do something for His Majesty and for the people of the Ming Dynasty.

If you want to do things, you are not afraid of offending others; if you want to do things, you have to have a strong mind! Our family might as well say something to you. Our family doesn’t like those civil officials. They think they are children of saints and look down on themselves too high, look down on us eunuchs, and look down on you martial artists, which is not good!”

Speaking of this, Eunuch Wei laughed at Ningbo Prefecture: "Let's talk about Ningbo Prefecture, don't think our family doesn't like you either. What we don't like are the officials in Beijing. If you do practical things like Ningbo Prefecture, our family likes it very much. When you take the Eastern Front, our family will definitely ask for contributions to you Ningbo Prefecture in front of His Majesty!"

"The lower official knows what my father-in-law meant, but he never thought too much."

The prefect Wu, who had received a silver note, was in a low attitude, and even the "lower-official" claimed to have been promoted. However, he was not without etiquette. After all, the young master Wei in front of him was a maritime eunuch who was appointed as the imperial admiral and a serious imperial envoy.

“That’s good.”

Eunuch Wei nodded with a smile, and said to everyone: "When General Yu, who was fighting against Japanese devils with Qi Shuai, guarded the Kinmen, he wrote to the Supervisor to discuss the two problems and two pretexts of using troops. After receiving the letter, the Supervisor was angry and said what the military man intended to write a letter. Without asking, he scolded General Yu and took his post. What does this mean? It does not mean that the civil servants in the Supervisor understand military affairs, but that these civil servants are a layman commander and commander blindly, and cough with his mother Jiang Tuzi."

After realizing the aphasia, the father-in-law quickly pretended to cough lightly, "Why did General Yu write a letter? Isn't it because General Yu knows the problem? If General Yu doesn't understand, he can write a letter? So, we have to tell you, especially the two generals. This joint fleet was handed over to you by His Majesty, and it was also handed over to you by our family. In the future, you two have to take responsibility. We don't want you to just obey the dispatch, but sincerely hand over the joint fleet to you, hoping that you can use your own abilities to show the majesty of the joint fleet, the majesty of the Ming Dynasty, and the majesty of His Majesty!"

"If you have any ideas, just say what you have. If you have any requirements, please do it immediately. If you can't do it, our family will have to help you even if you can go back to Beijing to beg for grandpa and grandma!"

Speaking of this, Eunuch Wei stood up with his hands and looked at Shi Dezheng and Shen Yourong with great earnestness: "Does the commander-in-chief and the chief of staff have anything to say to our family? If not, let's listen to your two plans for the Battle of the East."
