Is the maritime ban good or bad?

If you look at this problem from the perspective of modern people and don’t think about it, it will naturally be bad and the impact will be extremely bad!

What a joke, don't let people go out to sea.

Are you not doing business anymore?

Self-produced and sold?

Is it possible to keep the country in a far distance?

However, people don’t think so at this moment, at least, the ruling class doesn’t think so.

For example, when emperors were emperors, they did not do business, and they did not know how much income they could bring in maritime trade. Therefore, all emperors of the Ming Dynasty supported the maritime ban. Once pirates and Japanese pirates started to have a fight, they would impose severe maritime bans.

What they were looking for was nothing but was just a waste of time. Just block the sea and block all the pirates and Japanese pirates outside.

As for officials, a large number of them focus on agriculture and neglect business, and they look down on business at all. Therefore, if the sea ban is banned, they will also ban it, and they also seek to save trouble.

Some of them have certain relationships with merchants, or they are from merchants, and they also support maritime bans!

Why?

It’s very simple. The sea ban is banned and no one else is allowed to go overseas to do business. The merchants they control can only make money overseas. In this way, they will pay!

This is true for the wealthy maritime businessmen, and the Yan Song party is the same. They are all jealous of the profits of maritime trade and want to do their own business, so they strongly support the maritime ban!

Zhang Juzheng didn't know this. At least he was not very clear at this moment. He was just an ordinary scholar and was also an inland scholar. Haijin had no connection with him at all.

He thought about it carefully, and then he immediately estimated: "This sea ban is probably right. After all, the sea is so vast that the imperial court cannot control it at all. If some people go out to sea to collude with pirates and Japanese pirates, wouldn't the coast of Ming Dynasty be in chaos again?"

When Yang Cong heard this, he frowned. Zhang Juzheng's idea was probably the idea of ​​most court officials. The sea ban actually has no direct relationship with them, but they all think that banning is better than being unable to help, because banning is easy to deal with!

How to explain this question?

He thought about it but still couldn't explain it, because it was too troublesome to explain it, and people who had never been in contact with it might not be able to understand it. It would be better to let Zhang Juzheng and the others see the facts, and believe them to understand.

As the two of them were talking, the fleet had already entered Denglaishui City.

This water city was originally built to defend against Japanese disasters. Its scale is not very large. The surrounding city walls are less than one mile long, but the city walls are very high, even higher than those in ordinary cities, more than three meters high.

As for why it is built so high, of course, it is to prevent the Japanese pirates from taking over the city wall by using large ships. You should know that the height of the side of the sea ship and the cabin on the deck are about ten feet high. The cabin of the Dafu ship is more than two feet higher than the water surface. If the city wall is built too low, people will jump directly from the cabin. Therefore, the wall of the Denglaishui City is very high, and the Fu ship is much shorter in front of it.

There is another feature of Denglaishui City, that is, there is a harbor in the city, and the entrance has been blocked by a large wooden gate similar to the city gate.

In other words, the fleet can enter the city directly through the sluice gate, and even if it reaches the dock, it will be considered to be inside the city.

At this time, the commander of the Dengzhou Guard had already waited on the dock with all the officials of the garrison station alone, because this time, there were not only Yang Cong and his seven disciples, but also Guo Jiang, the grandson of Wuding Marquis Guo Xun.

The Shandong Dusi and Liaodong Xingdushi are just under the jurisdiction of the Left Army Governor's Office, and Wuding Marquis Guo Xun is the left governor of the Left Army Governor's Office. Dengzhou Guard is also under the jurisdiction of the Shandong Dusi. The commander of the Dengzhou Guard naturally wants to curry favor with this young governor.

Of course, even if Guo Jiang did not come, the commander of the Dengzhou Guard would not dare to neglect it, because Yang Cong, who came this time, was the governor of the five provinces, and his power was much greater than that of Guo Xun, the Marquis of Wuding. Later, Yang Cong was very strict in arresting it. These guard officers were all trembling when they heard it.

Although Yang Cong has "retired" now, his influence is still there. In just a word, it is still very simple to deal with him, a small military officer.

In short, Yang Cong and his group received grand welcome and warm hospitality from all the officials of Dengzhou Guard. That guy, the commander of Dengzhou Guard, was so humble that he almost called grandpa in front of them.

As for Qi Jiguang, he became the leader of Dengzhou Guard, and the commander nodded and bowed in front of him.

There is no way, the Qi family is awesome. Originally, the Qi family was one of the several major families in Dengzhou Guards. It is even more amazing now. Not only did Qi Jingtong become the governor of the Navy, but he was in charge of all the warships along the coast, Qi Jiguang also became Yang Cong's closed disciple. This guy has an unlimited future!

The group rested in Dengzhou Acropolis for a day. The next morning, Yang Cong politely declined the old man of the Qi family and took the other disciples and Guo Jiang on the warship, continued to go south, and headed straight for Jinling City, Nanzhili.

Along the way, Yang Cong introduced his disciples about naval battles and ordered the fleet to take the opportunity of supply to enter the coastal David's garrison to inspect the stations. Zhang Juzheng and others' impression of the Ming army suddenly changed drastically.

Although scholars have always said that the Ming Dynasty is invincible, they are skeptical about the combat power of the Ming army, because since the Zhengtong period of Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty has been bullied everywhere, and even the little Dongying and Annan do not take the Ming Dynasty seriously. What prestige does the Ming army have?

Even if Yang Cong brought the Ming army to wipe out the pirates and Japanese pirates and conquered the Annan Mo family, they probably thought that this was Yang Cong's magic, not that the Ming army suddenly became different.

However, after seeing the rigor of these coastal garrisons, they finally realized that the current Ming army seemed to be very different from the previous Ming army. At least the guards in the coastal garrisons were intact and had a strong and powerful look, and they had undergone strict training at first sight.

After saying goodbye to the coast and entering the river, Yang Cong called Tan Lun, who was most likely to become the commander, and asked cordially: "Zi Li, how are you? What do you think after seeing so many ward stations?"

When Tan Lun heard this, he couldn't help but sigh: "The students originally thought that if these garrisons were either lacking training and lacking energy, they would not be able to continue their meals and were hungry and pale and thin. I never thought that they were so well-trained and so mighty."

Yang Cong smiled and said, "Well, before my army came to Southeast to be the governor, they did say similar to what you said. Do you know, how they became like this in a short period of time?"

When Tan Lun heard this, he couldn't help but say with admiration: "My teacher is really a god. He can actually train them to this way in just two or three years."

Yang Cong was slapped by this flattery and wanted to roll his eyes. What is this about?

He said angrily: "How can you train the teachers one by one in so many places and so many garrisons? If you want to train the teachers, you can really travel to so many places in just two or three years, and you can train all the garrisons very well. That's really a god. It's obvious that being a teacher is not a god, and you don't have so much time to train them."

When Tan Lun heard this, he couldn't help but say silence: "What's going on? Why did they suddenly become so powerful?"
