Chapter 377 Beating Li Chengliang

Qi Jiguang left and asked nothing again. Although he was confused, he did not hesitate. No matter what Zhu Yijun did, Qi Jiguang was willing to fight for it, even if he gave his life.

After seeing Qi Jiguang away, Zhu Yijun turned around and returned to Wanhe Palace. This meeting seemed inconspicuous, but it was the belief of the wise and the ministers of the Ming Dynasty. Although Qi Jiguang had doubts, he firmly believed in fighting for Zhu Yijun. Zhu Yijun received unprecedented support from Qi Jiguang, strengthening his belief in continuing to move forward.

After the general direction was settled, the huge machine of Daming immediately started to move.

After Zhu Yijun's years of training, the Ming Dynasty machine is still running very fast. Once it runs with all its strength, the energy it generates is very, very amazing.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Works quickly completed the negotiations.

The construction of the two cities of Siping and Andong was immediately put on the agenda. Surveying and mapping personnel began to enter the two places, brick kilns began to be expanded, cement kilns also began to be expanded, and the Ming forces began to start operating in these two places.

Under such circumstances, Zhu Yijun summoned a man, a person who had been frightened since Zhu Yijun came to Liaodong. This man was Li Chengliang, the general of Liaodong, and a person Zhu Yijun must meet.

When Li Chengliang entered Wanhe Palace, he felt very nervous.

Judging from the emperor's performance when he came to Liaodong, Li Chengliang did not think that the emperor was close to him. Li Chengliang also felt that he had done something wrong with Nurhaci.

Emperor Nashulhazi's daughter is a concubine, which now seems more like a stroke of a god.

"I am the general of Liaodong, Li Chengliang, please see Your Majesty. Long live my emperor!" After seeing Zhu Yijun, Li Chengliang knelt down and kowtowed immediately, feeling uneasy.

Zhu Yijun was drinking tea at this time, taking a sip, and then putting down the tea cup in his hand.

After looking at Li Chengliang, Zhu Yijun slowly spoke, "Get up!" When Li Chengliang stood up, Zhu Yijun then spoke, "I have long been known for my name."

"When Mr. Zhang was still there, he praised his beloved minister a lot."

Li Chengliang didn't know whether Zhu Yijun's words were mocking or something, but when Zhu Yijun mentioned Zhang Juzheng, Li Chengliang felt relieved. Because the whole Ming Dynasty knew that when Zi was respectful to his teacher Zhang Juzheng today.

No minister can replace Zhang Juzheng's position in the heart of the emperor.

"I knew that the atmosphere was not good before the Ming Dynasty. Those who became officials were greedy for money and military generals drank blood." Zhu Yijun said calmly, "I have heard of my dear friends in Liaodong."

"I have taken a lot of money and have done a lot of things that have lie about merit, and I know it."

When Li Chengliang heard this, he was so scared that he fell to his knees on the ground and hurriedly said, "I am guilty!"

Zhu Yijun glanced at Li Chengliang and waited for him to speak. Seeing that he just confessed his guilt but did not defend himself, Zhu Yijun smiled and said, "I thought my dear friend wanted to defend him, get up!"

When Li Chengliang stood up from the ground again, Zhu Yijun smiled and said, "Then I will defend my dear."

"Liaodong is bitter and cold. The imperial court stationed troops in Liaodong. The money paid every year is pitiful. The soldiers are not well fed and don't wear warm clothes, and the soldiers are not well-equipped. How can they fight? Tuman people have to be punished if they can't beat the court every year."

"For the generals, you must always find a way to get some money, otherwise you will never be paid."

"It's not a big deal to exaggerate the credit and get more money. With layers of exploitation, it's good to have 60% of the military pay left when you get to the local area. I know all of these."

"Qi Jiguang also received an empty salary back then, and I know it."

"In addition, Qianli is an official only for wealth, let alone a general who puts his head on his belt. Who doesn't want to win a wealthy family with his wife and son?" Zhu Yijun said and laughed again: "I know these too."

Li Chengliang stood below, frightened, but could only listen quietly.

"Of course, I have made merits. Liaodong has been safe and sound for so many years, and I know it's thanks to my dear." Zhu Yijun looked at Li Chengliang: "I came to you today to tell me about my rules."

Li Chengliang hurriedly said: "I am obeying Your Majesty's order!"

"The past is over, and I know that many things are not to blame my dear, but from now on, the rules of the army are the rules of the army. It is absolutely not allowed to lie about military merits and kill good people."

"If I do something wrong with the law, don't blame me for not being misunderstood by the old love."

"I don't dare!" Li Chengliang immediately breathed a sigh of relief. This is just to ignore past grudges!

Zhu Yijun nodded, picked up the teacup and took a breath and said, "If you are an official in the Ming Dynasty, you will look like a minister in the Ming Dynasty. If you want to live a wealthy life at home, then you will find a way to make money."

"Liaodong is so big and there are so many places to make money. Can't you make money by following the rules?"

"Look at the dukes and lords in the court, which one of them is not profitable. My Interior Affairs Office also makes a lot of money, but that is all the money from the right origin. I have made it clear, that is, I didn't treat my beloved as an outsider. Don't let me down."

Li Chengliang quickly knelt down and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best!"

"That's good!" Zhu Yijun nodded with satisfaction: "You don't have any concerns about the matter of Jurchen. Do whatever you should do. Let them grow bigger, and Liaodong will still be in chaos."

"You are a minister of the Ming Dynasty. If you look like a minister, I will treat you as a minister."

In fact, Li Chengliang had long seen that the current emperor's strategy of dividing the Jurchens is much more wise than himself. After knowing this, Li Chengliang's concerns were much less.

"After the newly built Anton meeting was included in Liaodong, the city of Siping and Duoyan Three Guards was built, Liaodong will no longer be a place for four battles. Many fortresses can be removed, and soldiers also need to be diverted."

"I will set up the Liaodong Admiral Office in Liaodong in imitation of Ji Liao, and this admiral will be left to you."

There are only two admirals in the Ming Dynasty, one is the admiral of the Jingying camp and the other is the admiral of Jizhou. The admiral is different from the general. The admiral is directly under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Office of the Five Army and is under the control of the Military Affairs Office.

The general is controlled by the governor and the governor, and his power is different.

The admiral really had the intention of being the chief of the military region. Because it was a recruiting system and the salary was issued by the central government, Zhu Yijun dared to do so. In addition, the local civil and military divisions were divided, and the admiral strictly prohibited from interfering in local taxation and administration, which also prevented them from becoming bigger in the local area.

"After going back, I'll find out a strategy. I believe that your beloved is fine."
