Zhou Zheng listened, compared to the map of Liaodong, and said: "The action must be slow, and you must walk solidly. You can't go to war on one day. You must fight for a thousand miles like in the Wanli period. You must fight steadily and stand firmly. The time for the Northern Expedition is not yet ripe. Be patient..."
Lu Xiangsheng nodded and said: "What the lord said is. Since the lord transferred the cavalry to Gansu Town, there have been a lot of actions to build captives, and they have come to our front to test and pretend to attack. Horqin seems to have troops coming over, deliberately holding a group, North Korea The official over there has already warned that there should be no big problem."
Zhou Zheng paced and said: "Korqin's reaction is not surprising. They have been married to Jianlu for many years. Wait a minute, they are simmering, we need time."
Lu Xiangsheng responded, and then said: "The lower officials once tried to go north. Their cavalry came and went like the wind, and they could easily break through the Linghe River and threaten Jinzhou. Whether it was to encircle Wei and save Zhao, or to fight for aid, we were very struggling to deal with it. Not to mention the problems of the army, just to say that even if we break through Shenyang and do not eliminate their main force, Liaodong will still be difficult to put down. Shenyang is too far away from Jinzhou, it is not easy to respond, the food and grass are not available, and it is impossible to gain a foothold. They have consumed too much of their troops, and now, I don’t dare to head-on with us, which really hurts."
Zhou Zheng stopped, looked to the north, and said, "These are indeed the difficulties we face. I am now trying to block Liaodong and threaten Horqin again. The pressure on the construction of the prisoners is huge. Huang Taiji is in the dying state. At most one or two years, we can After slowing down, Jianlu was almost weakened."
Lu Xiangsheng stood behind Zhou Zheng and said, "My lord is talking about it. My lord, have you crossed the Linghe River?"
Zhou Zheng thought for a while, shook his head, and said, "I want to go, but you may not agree. I will go to Lushun, Weihai by boat."
Lushunwei, Weihaiwei, guarding the Bohai Sea, guarding Tianjin.
Lu Xiangsheng nodded, and Zhou Zheng's circle was obviously to inspect the military reform and stabilize the military.
Zhou stayed in Jinzhou for three days, looking at the direction of Shenyang from time to time.
Since the suppression of the Northwest Rebellion, the enthusiasm for the suppression of Liaodong has risen unprecedentedly. Zhou Zheng is not only under pressure, but also about to move in his heart. Fortunately, reason told him that it was not enough for the time being.
When Zhou Zheng looked north, Huang Taiji also knew that Zhou Zheng had arrived in Jinzhou.
Sitting on the Shenyang Imperial City, looking at Jinzhou from a distance.
He kept coughing, his face was pale, and his eyes were sunken. It was a sign of the imminent end.
There were two people standing beside him, one was Ji'erhalang with a frosty complexion, the other was only three years old, and the ninth son Fulin.
Fulin was still very young, white and ignorant. He didn't know why he had to stand on the head of the city, looking at Huang Taiji in a wheelchair from time to time.
Huang Taiji finally suppressed the cough, and sighed softly: "Back then, if I made up my mind to fight Zhou Zhengyun to the end and kill him completely, I might not have fallen into such a field."
Ji'erhalang was indifferent for a while, shook his head and said: "I really want to be like that. It hits Zhou Zhengyun's tricks. He just wants to fight with my Qing Dynasty blood at all costs and consume my Qing forces. My Qing Dynasty has a sparse population and it is extremely difficult to replenish. Different."
Huang Taiji didn't seem to hear it, and tried his best to look up to the south, saying: "Zhou Zhengyun, when I was in Shengjing, I saw this son is extraordinary. After all, I cherish his talents and let him go south. It's too late to regret..."
Jierhalang didn't speak this time, looking at Huang Taiji's profile, his heart was filled with sadness.
When did Huang Taiji regret it? When was the mouth soft? Now there are more and more words like this. Could it be really bad
It was about to June, when the weather was getting warmer, Huang Taiji felt the hot breeze and said, "How is Mr. Ning's land reclamation?"
Jierhalang said, "I have fewer Han people and a vast land with sparsely populated people. This year's summer grain may not be much."
Jianlu was a fishing and hunting nation, and could not farm at all, nor would he put down his knife and pick up a hoe. Therefore, the situation of Jianlu was still very serious.
Huang Taiji coughed again and again, and finally stopped, looked at Ji'erhalang and said: "I heard that someone wants Concubine Zhuang and the queen be buried?"
There was a burial system in the Manchus. For example, the Virgin of Dorgon was forced to die with Nurhachi.
Ji'erhalang was silent for a moment, and said, "Mr. Ning opposed."
Huang Taiji also hesitated in his heart. He reads a lot, knowing that women's political affairs often bring great troubles, especially young masters. The usurpation of the throne occurred most at this time.
Huang Taiji didn't speak, but looked towards Jinzhou and said softly: "At this time, I really want to sit down with Zhou Zhengyun and have a good drink."
Ji'erhalang can understand how much Huang Taiji's thoughts are, but this is only an extravagant hope after all. On the one hand, Zhou Zheng will definitely not come back, and on the other hand, if he really wants to come, Huang Taiji will not drink with him, and will kill Zhou Zheng impatiently.
Zhou Zheng naturally didn't know that Huang Taiji was looking at Jinzhou in Shenyang City. Three days later, he went to Lushun by boat and met Huang Long, He Kegang and others in Lushun.
I checked the navy, and after I met with the students of the Naval Military Academy, I watched a military exercise with the navy.
Then, Zhou Zheng went to Shandong and held several meetings with the governor of Shandong, the governor, and the generals. I didn't know how many times he talked. It was June 12 before he left for Henan.
Zhou Zheng took Henan for five or six days and went south along the canal to Suzhou.
In Suzhou, Zhou Zheng was greatly welcomed, and officials and gentry, a large number of businessmen, lined up to see Zhou Zheng. To say that Zhou Zheng’s most direct beneficiary of this reform is the businessman!
The farmers have not really felt it yet.
Zhou Zhengzhou met with too many people publicly in Suzhou, and one after another emphasized the importance of the'reform'.
The prefects of Suzhou and others tried their best to endorse it, and Suzhou seemed to support the reform with one heart and no opposition.
Zhou Zheng inspected the various processes of the reform, but was quite satisfied, and then set off to Yingtianfu, where the governor's office of Nanzhili was located.
Lu Daqi personally rushed to the Suzhou River and reported to Zhou Zheng on the boat.
Lu Daqi obviously stayed up too late and was very haggard. Holding a thick handwritten note, he said, "My lord, the biggest problem Nanzhili has encountered at the moment is the land problem. Then the officials who have been born out of inaction, people are superfluous and corrupt. Wait. The lower officials have strongly promoted the policy of'responsibility to people', strengthened supervision, review, etc. At present, the bottom layer is old and slick, and you have to find a way to replace it. Blindly pressure is not a solution..."
"In terms of taxation, commercial taxes, etc., are well implemented. After all, the tax amount is relatively small. The biggest problem encountered in food tax is that it has become a habit to be in arrears over the years. Second, it is serious land mergers that cannot be collected. It also includes the handling of officials at all levels and so on..."
"When Mr. Qian Ge arrived in Nanzhili, he did solve many problems for the lower officials. At least in terms of public opinion in Shilin, there was a lot of relaxation. Some big gentry's attitudes have also changed. Generally speaking, Mr. Qian Ge Still did something..." (End of this chapter)
