By the end of the year, the capital was already covered in silver.
As the end of the year approaches, busy figures can be seen everywhere in this towering palace, with lights and decorations, and the New Year atmosphere has already appeared in this capital.
In the corridor in front of the Ganqing palace, the emperor stood in a fox fur. In the snow in front of the palace, the princes and daughters were having fun.
Next to the emperor were the two dukes of Daheng, Xu Feng and Zhao Wu.
"Have you heard of the fake Ming side?"
The emperor stared at the playful prince and daughter and spoke casually.
Xu Feng and Zhao Wu looked at each other, and then Xu Feng bowed to the emperor: "I have heard of something."
After saying that, Xu Feng pondered for a while, then said: "The dispute between the north and the south has completely broken up. Shi Bangyao, a hard-working minister, was either demoted or dismissed, and was still in the pseudo-Ming Dynasty, and was excluded so much that he had no say..."
"If it is in the army, it will be a fight,"
"Site struggle between the local government and the court, and between the generals..."
"After a while, there was a pseudo-Ming general who informed our army and harmed friendly forces..."
"With the navy, Li Dingguo did a good job and dispatched naval troops to attack many times, which made Zheng Zhilong and the pseudo-Ming court more and more disagreeable. Not long ago, due to the problem of garrison in Penghu, Zheng Zhilong's subordinates also had conflicts with the pseudo-Ming navy..."
The emperor asked again: "If the army in the border town is not moved, the Beijing camp should not be moved. How long will it take to end the war when using troops against the pseudo-Ming?"
Xu Feng bowed again: "According to the strategic plan formulated by the General Staff, it will take up to half a year."
"Half a year..."
The emperor frowned. Of course, what he was concerned about was not the military strength of the Southern Ming Dynasty. In fact, as long as he thought, even now, he could pacify the false Ming Dynasty.
But it is easy to calm down, but it is not that easy to be stable.
In the reforms of the north, many landlords and gentry traveled far away to the south of the Yangtze River!
These people are undoubtedly firm opponents of his reform policies.
We also want local gentry and landlords in Jiangnan. If the knife really falls on them, they will not sit still and wait for death.
Even if the Nanming was destroyed in fact with the thunder, to stabilize Jiangnan, without hundreds of thousands of troops, and not to clean up the entire Jiangnan, let alone reform, don’t even think about stability!
And this process cannot be solved in a few months.
"The key to pacifying Jiangnan is not how to fight, but how to stabilize the situation after the war."
The emperor spoke slowly: "The General Staff not only needs to formulate a strategy for fighting, but also needs to formulate a tactic of maintaining stability after the war and suppressing dissatisfaction."
"I understand."
Xu Feng responded and bowed to the emperor.
"The Beijing Army must also be prepared. When the war begins in the future, Lin Danhan will never be at peace..."
"I understand."
Zhao Wu replied quickly.
The emperor looked at the princes and daughters playing, and was silent for a moment before he slowly spoke:
"I asked the Martial Arts Academy to open another department to train the children of various nobles. What do you think?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Xu Feng and Zhao Wu looked at each other immediately. Then, they did not dare to neglect and immediately bowed to the emperor: "Your Majesty is wise!"
The emperor waved his hand and said unhappily: "Okay, it's not that you flatter, it's that you give advice!"
In this way, the two looked at each other again, and then Zhao Wu bowed and said, "Report to Your Majesty, my Daheng Martial Era has all followed Your Majesty in the battles across the country. Most of them are in their prime, and their children are not old, and they are at the age of learning to understand their principles."
"But most of the military generals and generals from all families are in charge of the whole place or are commanding troops outside, so it is rare for the children in the family to be controlled."
"In time, I am afraid that the playboys are everywhere, relying on the power of my father, causing trouble and doing things arbitrarily..."
"But if strict supervision is imposed, it will be well cultivated..."
"I think your Majesty's intention is the best plan."
The emperor nodded and then looked at Erwazi: "What about you, what do you think?"
"I think it's OK."
Xu Feng nodded: "The lessons of the deterioration of the former Ming Dynasty's martial arts are still vivid in my mind, so we must prevent this."
"OK."
The emperor nodded: "Tomorrow morning, you two will write a charter and submit it to the court."
"I obey the order."
The two dukes bowed again, and then retreated at the instructions of the emperor.
...
"We thought His Majesty had forgotten this matter, but we didn't expect that we would mention it again this time."
While walking, Xu Feng took the lead in speaking.
"oh?"
Zhao Wu was surprised: "Your Majesty has mentioned this before?"
"A few years ago, at that time, we were still the governor of the three sides."
Erwazi was a little dazed. He still clearly remembered that it was the first time he quarreled with Brother Xiu, and the source of the quarrel was that he didn't want Brother Xiu to be so stupid and loyal anymore...
In the blink of an eye, everything changed...
"This strategy is really OK."
Zhao Wu nodded: "The Beijing Army is busy with things, and those kids at home are so lawless. The people in the mansion cannot control them. If this continues, they will sooner or later cause a big disaster."
Speaking of this, Zhao Wu seemed to remember something, suddenly looked at Xu Feng, and said angrily: "Your eldest son is not a good thing. I went to my house to play with my second boy before, burning my study room!"
Hearing this, Xu Feng also shook his head with a wry smile. He has been taking various important positions over the years, and he really has no energy to take care of his family affairs!
It’s a blessing that the boys are not big yet, otherwise he would probably have to be too big just by wiping his butt.
As his thoughts circulated, Xu Feng suddenly shook his head: "Your Majesty's move must have profound meaning."
The smile on Zhao Wu's face disappeared, and the two looked at each other and everything was clear.
It is obvious that the reform has been halfway through, and the next step is to return to normal order.
The first obstacle to normal order is naturally the vassal states in various places.
If you are in charge of the place, you will be in charge of military and political affairs. If you have enjoyed such power, who can willingly let go?
If you rebel, probably no one will have the courage to be so stupid.
But if you make trouble in secret, it is absolutely indispensable. Such a force cannot be ignored by anyone!
But it is also obvious that no one can stop His Majesty's will. This Majesty who really angers them is a matter of one or two people.
During silence, Xu Feng suddenly spoke.
"Say it first."
"What?"
Zhao Wu was shocked and suspicious.
Xu Feng looked serious and stared at Zhao Wu without any doubt:
"If you are not tactful, this supervisor will deal with it in advance!"
After looking at each other for a moment, Zhao Wu took a deep breath: "You can do it. If you keep it, it's useless, but it will harm others!"
After saying that, Zhao Wu was silent for a while and said, "You have to communicate with Zhou Yuji, as well. Shaanxi is all his old subordinates."
"We have already said that Zhou Yuji is now trapped in the North Korean birds, but his head is very big."
"He wishes we could help him deal with the tail here, otherwise, if he is involved..."
