mtl008 Chapter 224
Chapter 224
Now that the war in Jiangnan has ended, the two major departments of the royal family and the household department have begun to divide the spoils.
But the southeast series headed by Zheng Zhilong collapsed directly!
It can be said that their most confident warships were also wiped out in Jiangnan, although there were only more than 20 warships, but they were all the largest warships at present.
But it was destroyed by the artillery of the Ming New Army in the south of the Yangtze River, which made Zheng Zhilong dare not collide with the Ming New Army.
Originally, the pirate group led by Zheng Zhilong, their biggest reliance was their more than 1,000 warships.
It was to lead the Ming New Army to the coast for a decisive battle, but after seeing that the Ming New Army did not have the power and range of the conscience cannon, it directly died down.
Their dependence is gone, then they still have a fart!
Didn't you see that the Xiyi arms dealers were so frightened that they came directly to Dongfan to trade arms with them?
Do you really think these Xiyi are messengers of peace?
I believe that Xiyi is a messenger of peace, so he will not carry out bandit-like plundering in the South Seas, let alone eyeing the Ming Dynasty.
Coupled with the fact that the Imperial Shadow Force had wiped out all of their biggest hole card artillery units, Zheng Zhilong didn't have the courage to confront the Empire at all.
Hong Chengchou and Qin Liangyu were stunned!
"Is this a rebellion?"
"Dudu, this is not a rebellion, this is a group of soft bones, they don't have the courage to fight, but they are afraid of the power of Dudu!"
Hong Chengchou looked at Qin Liangyu with a smile, and knew very well in his heart that Qin Liang's 860 jade was definitely the henchman of the Son of Heaven, and Jian was in the emperor's heart.
He doesn't want to offend such a military boss!
Qin Liangyu said with a smile: "What kind of prestige, the governor of Bendu just pacified those toasts in the southwest, and there is no comparison with the governor of Yuan and the governor of Sun!"
I also have some regrets in my heart, these people are just not greedy enough.
If you don't have the ability to rebel, why do you want to jump out and make trouble?
As soon as the new army in the southwest arrived, they immediately retracted, and when the new army took a step forward, they retreated five steps.
After only a month of confrontation, some southeastern armies immediately ran away!
What's this called...
Everyone just fought a war of annihilation on a scale of 100,000, and they stopped fighting and left directly.
Hong Chengchou also had some regrets in his heart.
thought that this group of thieves in the southeast could hold on, but unexpectedly, these people saw that Jiangnan was wiped out by the new army of the Ming Dynasty.
These people were immediately intimidated, and they didn't dare to confront the Southwest New Army!
"This is the speed at which the Jiangnan New Army destroyed the Jiannu and Tartars too fast, and it directly scared them out. "
Qin Liangyu was dissatisfied with the lack of great feats!
After all, her purpose is to recover the southeast, and the task can be achieved.
In my heart, no matter what, Jiangnan can hold out for at least three (baff) months, and fight and fight.
It's a pity that the equipment and soldiers of the Ming New Army are too sophisticated and elite, and they are not at all comparable to the troops trained by their anti-thieves.
"Hehe, that's fine, especially after the empire has prepared a cannon without conscience, this official doesn't have to worry about coastal defense. "
Hong Chengchou, the governor of the southeast, had a stable heart.
What has been bothering him is the problem of coastal defense, as for the problem of internal tyrants, Hong Chengchou has already had experience in Shaanxi and Gansu governance, and he is not worried about not being able to clean it up.
Besides, the Son of Heaven also allowed Xiong Wencan to expand the scale of the 100,000 new army, and cheaply let him and Xiong Wencan govern the three southeastern provinces.
"Pontus did not expect that my Ming Dynasty already had his own powerful artillery.
At first, I was worried that you would not be able to guarantee the safety of coastal defense, and now there is no need for the Southwestern Army to stay in the southeast. "
Hong Chengchou said with a smile: "The empire has been unified, and there will be no more constraints in the locality, and there will be no big chaos."
We can confidently and boldly pursue economic reforms. "
He has applied for a grant from the Son of Heaven and asked for 30 million taels of silver to be withheld for the construction of the southeast industry!
This point, in fact, the Son of Heaven has already approved, and he is very calm!
You must come up with your own political achievements, and only in this way can you enter the new power center of the Ming Dynasty within five to ten years.
The Cabinet or the Military Aircraft Department will be his target!
However, Hong Chengchou feels that he is very likely to enter the cabinet, and his real power is not low.
Here's where Jane's benefits are!
Qin Liangyu didn't know how much silver there was in the southeast, but Hong Chengchou could estimate it. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
In particular, the silver intercepted by the Imperial Shadow Force has exceeded 600 million, and Jiangnan has about 670 million.
Giving two or three hundred million to the household department is already the limit, and the silver he withheld cannot be the household department, but can only be paid out by the Son of Heaven.
Because he wants to promote light industry, he has already discussed and finalized various cooperation with Wang Chengen.
At present, the royal family has established various factories and industries in the southeast.
Except for 30 million silver for infrastructure, the rest of the investment is from the royal family, plus local support. []
The southeast is mainly facing the South Seas, and you can play some sea trade without worrying about your political achievements.
Although Qin Liangyu didn't know what Jinyiwei and Shadow did, she still knew a little bit about it, but she didn't break it.
Soldiers do not interfere in politics, it is already a red line set by the Son of Heaven himself, as long as her military spending is always sufficient, she will not ask about these things.
Less leaning, Tian Ergeng walked into the handsome tent of the two, looking at the two of them talking happily, Tian Ergeng smiled: "Congratulations to the two adults for their meritorious service to the empire!"
"Lord Tian came to the southeast in person, I don't know if the matter has been dealt with?"
Qin Liangyu looked at Tian Ergeng and did not show any dissatisfaction.
I still attach great importance to the command of this brocade guard.
Being able to be promoted and make a fortune under the Son of Heaven shows that Tian Ergeng's ability is quite good.
Tian Ergeng smiled: "The harvest is quite fruitful!"
After that, Tian Ergeng looked at Hong Chengchou and said, "Lord Hong, Your Majesty has approved the funds you have applied for.
This is a bank deposit certificate, and within three months, the southeast will also establish the Royal Bank of the Ming Empire, and it can be mentioned directly at that time. "
Hong Chengchou signed happily, in a very good mood!
I also felt very emotionally in my heart, before His Majesty ascended the throne, it was very difficult to get hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.
That's like now, tens of millions of taels of silver, as long as it is reasonable, the Son of Heaven immediately approved it.
That's the gap!
Tian Ergeng said again: "As for this battle, the capture of the Southwest New Army, His Majesty has given instructions, half of it will be taken out to reward all the soldiers, and half will be used as a year-end bonus. "
"That's five million taels of silver, and that's how it was rewarded?"
Qin Liangyu was really shocked, although these thieves were not beaten, but this amount of silver was not a small amount.
Tian Ergeng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this is not knowing the truth of the empire.
If he knew that the empire had made more than a billion taels of silver this year, I was afraid that Qin Liangyu would not ask like this.
This also shows that Qin Liangyu, the commander, is very qualified!
It is really enforcing the rules of the Son of Heaven and abiding by the laws of the Imperial Army.
For this old general, he respects him from the bottom of his heart, and he can be described as loyal to the empire.
"Hehe, the empire is unified, take back the ownership of the south, the empire will only get better and better in the future, and the salary I am waiting for will not be increased in five years. "
Seeing Tian Ergeng say this, Hong Chengchou smiled and said: "Governor Qin, this is Your Majesty's grace, sympathetic to the soldiers of the new army.
The Jiangnan New Army also has a reward of fifteen million taels, which is not less than ours here. "
Xin said: "More than a billion taels of silver, take out 20 million taels, it's really not much, who told me that the new army of the Ming Dynasty is so strong?"
