Chapter 149: People who have no long-term worries must have immediate worries!
The arrival of Gu Yanwu and Huang Zongxi completely overturned Mao Pijiang, Fang Yizhi, and Chen Zhenhui's understanding of Lantian County.
If there is anyone in Jiangnan who can truly convince these three people, these two are undoubtedly on the list.
However, after these two people arrived, they only focused on asking for food and drinks from Lu Xiangsheng, saying that the pig food in Yushan Academy was really enough.
Lu Xiangsheng was obviously prepared. After his wife and young son prepared a Jiangnan-style family banquet, they went down, leaving the scene to the six people in the room.
Gu Yanwu and Huang Zongxi were very rude, treating Lu Xiangsheng’s home as their own. Without waiting for the host to greet them, they picked up their chopsticks and started eating and drinking quickly, and impatiently knocked on the table to let everyone know. Pijiang and the others poured wine quickly.
After eating and drinking for a while, Gu Yanwu put down his chopsticks and asked Lu Xiangsheng: "I heard that the county magistrate is at Buwu Sea?"
Lu Xiangsheng smiled and said: "The ocean fleet has already guarded Malacca. The newly deployed maritime power is to connect the near sea with the far sea, and the Ming Dynasty's Xuanwei Division in Nanyang will also be fully opened."
Huang Zongxi said with a smile: "Now we have reached the point of carving up the world. The Ming Dynasty must not fall behind others."
Gu Yanwu sneered and said: "What if we fall behind, as long as we can catch up and win back from those people, Yun Zhao is narrow-minded. , bound by some red tape.
In my opinion, Lan Tian should use all his troops to bring peace to the world and end this troubled world as soon as possible."
Mao Bijiang said in surprise after hearing this. "Can a mere Guanzhong conquer the world in a short time?"
Gu Yanwu ignored Mao Bijiang's words and continued to say to Lu Xiangsheng: "Lantian County now focuses on using the academy sect, and brother Jiandou is We and other leaders, who are called old literati by the academy faction, must not be led by the academy faction."
Lu Xiangsheng slowly drank a glass of wine and said: "Gentlemen are in groups but not party members. That's the true face of a gentleman."
Gu Yanwu waved his hands repeatedly and said: "No, no, no, one faction is dominant. This is not the essence of Yun Zhao's wild boar. He knows the essence of power, and power without restraint is. He must put shackles on this ferocious beast."
Huang Zongxi shook his head and said: "No, no, if two factions are deliberately formed, party struggle will be inevitable. The struggle for power in the Northern Song Dynasty, and then the bloody struggle in the Ming Dynasty, are all lessons learned from the past."
Gu Yanwu laughed and said: "Brother Taichong underestimated Yun Zhao, the wild boar spirit. Lantian has been divided into three obvious factions, the so-called old literati headed by Brother Jiandou, and the new literati headed by Yushan Academy. You must not underestimate the royal family headed by Lantian Thief
Yun. Zhao is very different from all the people in power we have seen, that is, he does not have a pathological attachment to power;We really need to set some rules for our miserable Ming Dynasty world.
What he wants to do is to be the patriarch of all generations, not just an emperor.
Brother Taichong talked about the party struggle between Niu and Li in the Tang Dynasty, talked about Wang Anshi, and talked about the system of chief ministers and assistants in the Ming Dynasty. All these seemed to have failed.
However, you have all ignored the positive meaning behind these events. "
Fang Yizhi said on the side: "Other than causing harm to the country and the people, I really can't think of any positive significance of these incidents.
Lu Xiangsheng said to Fang Yizhi: "Shut your mouth. Don't talk too much when the elders are talking." "
Huang Zongxi said: "If Yun Zhao wants to do this, he must remove the military, legislation, and judiciary from the party struggle, otherwise he will follow in the footsteps of Niu and Li's party struggle.
Gu Yanwu frowned and said: "Yun Zhao shouldn't be that simple. I even think he has deeper changes inside. Can Brother Jian Dou solve a certain family's doubts?"
Lu Xiangsheng said: "Yunzhao's work has always had the effect of moisturizing things silently. We can't see the effect until the truth comes out."
Take the current epidemic prevention and control as an example. He issued the "Body Bathing Order", "Clean Clothes Order", "Rodent and Pesticide Order" and finally the "Mask-Making Order". We all No one can see the reason clearly.
It wasn’t until Han Lingshan explained it to us personally that we understood the underlying truth.
To this day, when the epidemic in Henan, Hebei, Shanxi, Shandong and Gyeonggi Province is still in full swing, only a few people are sick in Lantian County. Even in places like Mianchi that cannot be strictly sealed, the number of sick people is still high. It's not too much, and it gradually fades away.
At the same time, hundreds of dead bodies were transported out of Luoyang City occupied by Li Hongji every day, and the place was about to turn into a ghost.
I also specifically asked about the epidemic situation in other places, and the results were not good either. Lantian City was also closed and the same ban was implemented, and the results were much better.
This is the magic of Yun Zhao. He can always come up with seemingly simple ways to solve the most difficult problems.
Last year, Yun Zhao also issued a "Field Restriction Order", which was beyond my expectation.
This order seemed arrogant, but it further calmed the people in Guanzhong.
From then on, no family with more than a thousand acres of land in the Guanzhong territory had any land confiscated. However, the number of acres that were actually confiscated was not that large. More big families had to split up their family acres. Separate families.
The big family that was supposed to be the most difficult to deal with, at this moment, the fragile big family fell apart due to internal and external troubles. A "Field Restriction Order" even had an effect that the "Tianfa Order" could not achieve.
Therefore, I think that we should give Yun Zhao a greater degree of trust. I believe that as long as Yun Zhao does not become stupid, his suggestions should be implemented..."
Mao Pijiang, Fang Yizhi and Chen Zhenhui sat on their knees beside the table, serving wine and food to the three bosses.dishes, while listening to them talk about things they didn't understand.
I couldn't help but risked Pijiang's hand and said: "Shouldn't the biggest problem Yun Zhao faces be the imperial court, Li Hongji, Zhang Bingzhong and others?"
Huang Zongxi smiled and said : "Only those of you who are trapped in a corner of the south of the Yangtze River think so."
Fang Yizhi said: "Does it mean that the world has definitely belonged to the Yun family?"
Gu Yanwu said: "You should say that you belong to Guanzhong people. From now on, the world will be ruled by Guanzhong people."
Chen Zhenhui said: "Guanzhong is a peaceful corner, but we still have to face the Ming Dynasty's millions of people. The army and millions of thieves, what do they have?"
Lu Xiangsheng looked at these three young people with pity and sighed: "You know nothing about the general trend of the world..."
p>Mao Bijiang shook his head with difficulty and said: "How can people in this world succumb to the hands of thieves!"
Gu Yanwu smiled brightly, picked up the wine glass, looked at Mao Bijiang and the other three and said: "In this world, thieves are saving the world, and gentlemen are harming the world. Now a certain family finally understands why Yun Zhao has to stand still."
Huang Zongxi cupped his hands and said: "I would like to hear the details."
Gu Yanwu pointed at the three men from Mao Pijiang and said: "Yunzhao is waiting for Li Hongji and Zhang Bingzhong to kill all the people like them before he will accept a white and clean land."
The expressions of the three people in Mao Bijiang changed drastically...
Lu Xiangsheng said: "It's time to make some changes, otherwise, if the waves come together, you will all be nothing but fish and turtles!"
April's The grassland is still cold in spring.
Li Dingguo sat on a spread out wool carpet, concentrating on grilling the leg of lamb in his hand.
Zhang Guofeng was looking at the horizon with a monocular in his hand.
A group of light cavalry galloped on the yellow grassland. In the distance, there was a Mongolian herdsman playing a morin fiddle and singing a ballad about Genghis Khan.
These herdsmen are all Mongolian herdsmen accompanying the army.
Li Dingguo didn't like carrying heavy baggage around. He thought the Mongolian method of supplying food and grass was very good, so he reluctantly used it.
This obviously did not comply with Lantian's military regulations, so he spent a lot of energy to convince the stubborn guys in the Military Affairs Department to allow him to test it.
As of now, drinking mare's milk, eating cheese and dried meat, and occasionally killing sheep and goats to replenish it will have no impact on combat effectiveness.
The advantage is that the army can run farther.
The disadvantage is that he needs to carry more herdsmen. After all, his army not only includes combatants, but also auxiliary personnel who outnumber combatants.
The land here is barren, with only hay and few trees. Li Dingguo is now very skilled at using dried cow dung to roast mutton.
However, Zhang Guofeng refused to eat it. He preferred to eat some roasted mutton that smelled like cow dung.Pasta, or rice.
The current army is engaged in the work of enclosing the land, so they are very busy every day. Not only do they have to drive away the scattered herdsmen through robbery, but they also need to kill people to declare who is the owner of this land. Owner.
"The march on the grassland is very detrimental to the artillery carriage. I can't figure it out. Why do you have to run around with the artillery carriage?"
Zhang Guofeng put down the telescope in his hand and saw Li Dingguo doing it. He bit the leg of lamb and carefully moved his body outside.
“You have to get used to it. From now on, artillery will be part of us and must be carried at all times. We have to get used to it, and the soldiers also have to get used to it. We not only need fierce firepower, but also fast speed.
Yun Zhao has a huge appetite. He will not be satisfied with the current land. Confining Lang Xu may not be his ultimate goal, so we must be prepared to run to the horizon.
You will definitely encounter many problems while marching now, and this is all to lay the foundation for the future."
Seeing that Zhang Guofeng had no intention of eating meat, Li Dingguo answered and continued to chew on the leg of lamb.
"What do we need this wasteland for?"
Zhang Guofeng spit out the dust in his mouth and asked again.
Li Dingguo said: "The population of Guanzhong has almost reached 10 million, and the land has long been insufficient.
After we unify the Ming Dynasty, the people will have a good life. After the people have a good life, they will multiply like mice.
When the time comes, they will need more land. Why do you still ask me such a simple question?
I remember that the students at Yushan Academy seemed to have discussed this matter.
The women in Guanzhong are very good at giving birth. Since they have had enough food, they will give birth to babies when they have nothing to do. Guys of the same age as us, Which one doesn’t have two or three children?
Wouldn’t it be better to have ten or eight children in a lifetime?
How much land is there in Ming Dynasty?
< p>If we don’t take advantage of the fact that we are stronger now and occupy more land, it will be very difficult for us to grab it again when others have taken over all the land.”
