Originally, Xu Guangqi wrote "The Original Geometry", and then Sun Yuanhua wrote another book. Most civil servants and generals were not interested in these, but the attitude of whoever liked to see whoever looked.

But at this time, let alone those civil officials who think they can be knowledgeable, even those who are not even able to read among the military generals can't help but want to go and see what the technological foundation the emperor said looks like? After reading it for a while, will you suddenly have a whim and come up with a very wonderful idea?

Seeing that some ministers had already asked Xu Guangqi and Sun Yuanhua privately, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but smile from the bottom of his heart. New things, even as emperors, would be difficult if they were not allowed to know the benefits of them and just force the cow to eat grass and drink water. But now, taking advantage of the opportunity to explore Siberia, we have taken out a roughly available steam engine in time, which actually made these Ming officials interested in technology. It has to be said that this is a virtuous cycle and can complement each other. I believe that when Xu Guangqi comes up with specific plans to promote basic scientific knowledge in the future, it will be easy to implement it!

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly had another idea.

So he immediately announced: "I have decided to build a new shipyard in Tongzhou to make iron ships. They are all made of iron. Use this steam engine as power and no longer use boatmen to row, and they can move forward against the wind!"

As soon as this decree was announced, it immediately attracted the attention of all civil and military officials. Many people's first thought was that they were wondering: all made of iron? There were iron ships in the past, but they were wooden ships wrapped in iron armor. If they were all made of iron, wouldn't they sink? Of course, some people's first thought was to pay attention to how the steam engine drove the ship. Anyway, no matter what, everyone became interested in this iron ship!

Looking at the expressions of the ministers below, Emperor Chongzhen was happy. He wanted this effect. In the shipyard in Tongzhou, he would build an iron-armored ship in a great way. Regardless of whether it is practical or not, he would first build an iron-armored ship that could be opened to blind the eyes of people of this era. In this way, it can indirectly play the greatest and most effective promotion role for the dissemination of technology.

Finally, the court talks ended.

This court discussion is not shorter than the previous one. But in the past, when the court discussion ended, many ministers were exhausted and not many were willing to speak. But this time, all civil officials and generals, after Emperor Chongzhen left first and walked out, were all whispering with their familiar colleagues while walking. Everyone had doubts, excitement, excitement, or... Among the many expressions, there was no tired look, no tired person who didn't want to talk!

As these court officials dispersed, the content of the court discussion spread. If it was said that in the past, it would be a great event in the capital that could win a battle with Jianlu, then at this time, this kind of news has no influence at all, and it is even more gossipy than the emperor's private visit to Jiangnan. But all these news does not have the content of this court discussion, which is shocking and interesting.

Regarding the prospects described by the emperor, in the capital, whether rich or poor, men, women, old or young, there are all contents that they are interested in and discuss them carefully. Some are excited, some are happy, and of course they are worried... But no matter what, the momentum is huge.

In mid-October of the fifth year of Chongzhen, when the cold wind began to sweep across the north of the Ming Dynasty, Hai Lanzhu finally returned to Shanhaiguan with more than 700 cavalry and a Tsarist Russian prisoner.

Emperor Chongzhen naturally did not break his promise and added the throne of imperial concubine to Hai Lanzhu, chose a good day to marry Hai Lanzhu, and at the same time, he was granted Buhe as Earl of Korqin. This treatment can be said to be higher than that of Concubine Tian and Concubine Yuan, because only the empress's father was granted the Count, and Concubine Tian's father was only granted the Left Governor in his original history.

No one has any objection to the treatment given by Emperor Chongzhen. After all, the Korqin tribe defected to Daming very early and secretly made many contributions to Daming. In the end, even his son died in the war against Jianlu.

The Mongolians who defected to this year also felt at ease when they saw Emperor Chongzhen giving him such treatment. Among the Han ministers, Wen Tiren and others had some objections, but with Wu Keshan's death in battle, the Korqin tribe went to Guihua City for reorganization, which was also in line with the ancestral system. The emperor's concubine's family had no actual power and would not have any relatives who endangered the imperial power, so there would be no objection.

In the Forbidden City, on a wedding night, Emperor Chongzhen sat facing Hai Lanzhu and looked at his bride carefully.

To be honest, Hai Lanzhu is particularly beautiful today. There is a kind of maturity that other concubines do not have. In this era, Hai Lanzhu was an older young woman, but in later generations, Hai Lanzhu had just graduated from university and just started working. At this age, Emperor Chongzhen, who had traveled through time in his later generations, would not mind in his heart.

Looking at her, thinking about the fascination of the slave chief Taiji in her in the original history, and thinking about some legends about her in later generations, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly felt a little unreal. If he didn't seem to feel the butterfly effect before, then at this moment, facing the beautiful bride, he really felt the butterfly effect.

Thoughts slowly answered this era. Emperor Chongzhen remembered the first time he met her. He thought that she was wearing a man's clothing that could not be fake anymore, but he jumped out to stand up without any sense. Thinking about the past in the chat group, suddenly, an idea flashed through Emperor Chongzhen's mind: Is he and Hai Lanzhu considered an online dating? If so, it should be the earliest online dating on earth, right?

When Emperor Chongzhen looked at Hai Lanzhu, Hai Lanzhu was also looking at Emperor Chongzhen at the same time. She did not have the shyness of the Han children, so she looked at each other openly, but her cheeks were a little flushed, which made her look more charming.

A series of events with Emperor Chongzhen flashed in his mind. Seeing Emperor Chongzhen not speaking for a long time, Hai Lanzhu took the initiative to speak: "Your Majesty, I heard that Your Majesty wants to personally conquer Jianlu from Liaodong?"

"..." Emperor Chongzhen did not expect that his bride, the first sentence he said was not "It's getting late, Your Majesty should take a rest", but asked about military and national affairs, is it a bit unsightly!

However, Emperor Chongzhen thought about it and probably knew what Hai Lanzhu was thinking at this time, and nodded and said, "I have already started to prepare, including food, weapons, army, and even the arrangements of post-war officials, and the governance matters of various places. If there is no accident, next year, when Jianlu is at its weakest time, the imperial army will personally fight to pacify Liaodong in one fell swoop!"

"I have a request." Hai Lanzhu heard this and said with a hint of sincerity: "When I personally march next year, I hope that Your Majesty can bring me with me, and I will see with my own eyes the great revenge will be avenged!"

Taking the concubine to the battle? Emperor Chongzhen thought, the court officials would probably stop him? But when he looked back, he probably would have many ministers opposed the matter of his command in person. Since this is the case, why bother to care about this? Moreover, Hai Lanzhu is not as good as others. She can ride a horse and shoot arrows, and she is also familiar with Liaodong. She will not be a burden if she takes care of her. She can also hug and sleep at night. That's fine!

Thinking of this, he agreed, which made Hai Lanzhu, who was a little unsatisfied, overjoyed. While being grateful, he served the emperor with all his heart.

However, Emperor Chongzhen thought of his own side from what happened just now, and he should make some preparations for the imperial commander to personally fight. Thinking of this, he contacted Sun Chengzong, Cao Bianjiao and Lu Xiangsheng in Liaodong the next day, and Hong Chengchou in Guihua City to convey his will.

At the same time, in the lobby of the prefectural yamen in Yongchang Prefecture, Yunnan, the person sitting in the main seat was not the prefect of Yongchang Prefecture, but two people sat together. One of them was wearing a python robe, while the other was wearing a big red robe. It was obvious that it was much bigger than the prefect.

The older one was the imperial envoy and the cabinet assistant Min Hongxue, and saw him scan the people below. On his left hand, there were generals at all levels who trained the Tang Wang Army, and on his right hand, there were all the chieftains who summoned them.

At this time, he spoke with a majestic expression: "The small country on the border of Dongwu has coveted China for a long time! Over the years, he has ignored the magnanimity of the Emperor of Ming, repeatedly offended the border, killed my people, robbed my property, and even occupied my Ming territory without returning. Such evil deeds are not worthy of precepts for other countries if they do not teach them a lesson!"

The chieftains standing below are from Wadian Pacification Department, Ganya Pacification Department, Zhandafu Pacification Department, Manmo Pacification Department, Longchuan Pacification Department, Lujiang Pacification Department, etc. The territories of these chieftains are all between the Yongchang Prefecture and the Daming border. It can be said that if Donggo's army continues to advance, their territory will also be threatened.

Therefore, when they heard the words of the Emperor's Officer of the Ming Dynasty, they all smiled happily.

Before that, they had always been worried. Since the powerful general Liu Jian was transferred to the north, only Dongwu attacked the Ming Kingdom and burned, killing and looting in Yunnan, but the court had not made any noise. Mengmi, Mengyang, and Mubang, the places closest to Dongwu were all taken away by Dongwu. They had to be worried, fearing that Dongwu would fight forward, and their respective strength would not be able to withstand Dongwu's military attacks, and they would end up in Mubang and other places.

In fact, in the original history, the Ming Dynasty was unable to do anything to the Jianlu in the north, the natural disasters and man-made disasters in various places, and even the thieves flew around, let alone the southwestern border. Therefore, the Ming Dynasty never sent troops to Dongwu until it perished.

These toasts were obviously no longer as good as before this time, and were even more excited.

In the past, even if the court had to deal with Togo, it would have only let the Yunnan Governor solve the problem by himself. But this time, the cabinet minister was the head of the imperial envoy. Although I don’t know what it means to be the vassal king, the vassal king, this specification is enough to prove the court’s attention. It seems that the court is serious about Togo!

While they were thinking, Min Hongxue continued: "Today we call you to know that Dongwu must pay the price for what he did. The court decided to send troops to teach Dongwu a lesson. You all sent troops to be responsible for the food, grass and supplies, and cooperated with the imperial army. Do you have any opinions?"

There has always been a practice of asking local chieftains to send troops to cooperate with the war. Therefore, these chieftains did not object to Min Hongxue's request. In fact, when the imperial army drove from Yunnan to Yongchang Prefecture, although it was a matter of reforming the military system of the garrison, some of the chieftains of Octavia had already noticed it. At this time, the prepared chieftains immediately left the line and patted their chests and promised loudly: "Mr. I, the imperial envoy, are willing to send two thousand troops to cooperate with the imperial army!"

"Our Lujiang Pacification Department is also willing to send 1,500 troops, and it is just by the imperial envoy to dispatch it!"

“…”

The Tang King, who was sitting next to Min Hongxue, was very excited to participate in such a military controversy for the first time. Especially when he heard that these chieftains were very cooperative, he was even more happy. With the backbone of his own army, with the cooperation of these chieftain troops, he believed that I would destroy Gula as if I was to attack the cave.

Min Hongxue had been the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou before and knew the situation of the chieftains. Although these chieftains passionately reported one army after another, he was not happy at all. Because he knew that the chieftains' soldiers were actually not very strong, and they could be used to fight and showed a fierce side when fighting with the wind. But if they fought a tough battle, these chieftain soldiers would be unreliable. The key battle with Dongwu still had to rely on the imperial army to fight themselves!

After listening to them, Min Hongxue nodded and responded, and then said seriously: "Since that's the case, please go back and prepare your troops first. In half a month, you must obey orders and not neglect any. If anyone dares to delay the military plane, I will punish you strictly without lending!"

He was an imperial envoy and an assistant to the cabinet. His words were like thunder and no one dared to fart. As soon as the military discussion ended, the chieftains rushed to their comfort department one after another.

In the back hall of the prefect's yamen, the King of Tang finally recovered from his excitement. When he remembered something, he couldn't help but worry. He said to Min Hongxue who was drinking tea: "If some of these chieftains colluded with Dongwu, the news of our Ming Dynasty's dispatch of troops would definitely be passed back by them. In this way, Dongwu is prepared?"

After saying that, he felt a little difficult to deal with. He must have told these chieftains about this, because they have to use their troops, but there is a risk of news leaking after talking, which seems to be a bit of a dilemma!

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Min Hongxue was still drinking tea calmly.
