Chapter 642 Isn't this bullshit!

Emperor Chongzhen felt that there was nothing to consider since someone dared to die, wouldn’t he dare to bury it?

The biggest problem with the Ming Dynasty now is natural disasters, and it is a natural disaster similar to an earthquake that can directly bury people. The remaining floods and droughts have not had the impact on the Ming Dynasty as imagined.

Especially in Shaanxi, after the cultivation of sweet potatoes was spread out in Shanxi, and with the good things like potatoes, which are both vegetables and food, the biggest problem in the Ming Dynasty was originally short of food, which basically meant that it was solved.

As for why Emperor Chongzhen continued to purchase grain from various countries, the purely subconscious act of cheating turned those spicy chickens into agricultural exporting countries and labor exporting countries, which was simply beneficial to the Ming Dynasty without any harm.

Especially when the same grain as sweet potatoes and potatoes are spread out, the same amount of land can feed more people, and the impact will be more than a little.

The first thing that affects food prices.

Now the price of grain in the Ming Dynasty has dropped to a point where all landlords want to cry and even want to cut people down. Even the price of a good harvest recorded in the previous book cannot reach it!

In the good times, the price of a stone of rice was about six cents of silver. After the sixth year of the Tianqi period, it almost reached one tael of silver. In the first year of Chongzhen, it once rose to one tael of silver.

The price is rising, and the first thing that gets the benefit is the landlords who have a lot of land in their hands.

However, what no one expected was that Emperor Chongzhen, a foolish monarch, would rather use a large amount of money he had plundered to buy grain abroad, and would rather suppress the price of rice to one tael of silver.

It’s even more scamming now. The price of a stone of rice cannot even be sold for six cents. In some places, it has simply dropped to five cents or even four cents!

The next thing that is affected is the land price.

When food is not valuable and the land you get can no longer bring more benefits, the land price will inevitably begin to dive.

Of course, it is impossible to sell land, and it is impossible to sell it in this life.

Those damn mud legs are renting land to plant now, and the rent has been reduced to 20% or 30%. No matter how much, those sufferings are, would rather run outside the pass than rent land.

Then it affected those merchants who made a living by making wine, as well as restaurants everywhere.

What should I do if there is too much food? The prodigal emperor was still using silver to buy food from those small vassal states. The Ming Dynasty's own grain was once surplus. The Changping Warehouse and the Preparatory Warehouse were already so luxurious that they could change grain every two years!

Then take it to feed the animals. Anyway, the biggest benefit of killing the Tatars is that cattle and sheep and other animals began to flow into the people in large quantities and feed them openly!

Then, take it to make wine and don’t care whether it’s good or not. Anyway, it can be sold. It’s better than keeping the grain and rotting seeds, right?

With more wine and more cattle and sheep, it basically means that the population will usher in a new wave of outbreaks, and it also means that Emperor Chongzhen can receive more commercial taxes.

In the 13th year of Chongzhen, he was quite fucked. Although he unexpectedly killed the Tatar Khan and inexplicably copied Jiangnan, the two matters of railways and immigration still emptied the treasury, which had already had some wealth.

As for Emperor Chongzhen’s treasury, there was money, but Emperor Chongzhen did not want to use the treasury. What should I do if I encountered something and had to spend money but the treasury was gone?

This is happening now.

Emperor Chongzhen didn’t know who Cromwell was, and he was not interested in knowing that a barbarian whose head was stuck on the bamboo pole by Cao Bianjiao. I still have to care about who he was? Where did he come from?

I thought too much about this kind of thing that the Governor's Office of the Five Army needs to worry about. I, the emperor, only need to study and understand the Governor's Office of the Five Army, and there is no need to worry too much about the rest.

Aren’t the two bad species Guo Laoxiao and Wen Tiren just targeting my treasury? I’m paying this money!

After pondering for a while, Emperor Chongzhen said, "There is no problem of who comes first, so it is better to solve it together.

The immigration to the border has been planned, and I have allocated five million taels of silver from the treasury to the national treasury. I guess there is nothing wrong with this matter, right?"

After Wen Tiren and Guo Yunhou looked at each other, they bowed to Emperor Chongzhen together, saying that the problems that money can solve are not problems.

Anyway, I had planned to immigrate to the border, but the focus was not on the Stone Grassland where the Tatars were located. Now there are potatoes and other cold-resistant crops, and I just focus on the Stone Grassland and Nurkandus.

As for the remaining railway construction and other matters, it’s enough to do it step by step. Anyway, their expenses have been allocated in advance.

All that was lacking was nothing more than giving military funds to the Governor's Office of the Five Army, but he did not plan to suddenly attack Mughal and did not prepare for military funds in advance.

Seeing that Wen Tiren and Guo Yunhou had no other opinions, Emperor Chongzhen continued, "Since that's the case, I will allocate five million taels from the treasury to the Governor's Office of the Five Army as military expenses this time.

In this way, there will be no problem with the cabinet and the Governor's Office of the Five Army?"

Guo Yunhou really wanted to snatch the five million taels from the Governor's Office of the Five Army and stuff them into the national treasury, and was not afraid of snatching the Governor's Office of the Five Army and was not afraid of snatching the Governor's Office of the Five Army!

With an attitude of being less active than being able to act, Guo Yunhou bowed and said, "Your Majesty, this expedition to Mughals, the number of silver required for the army to set out is only one million, plus the logistics supply, only three million taels.

According to my opinion, it would be better to allocate the remaining two million taels to the treasury first, and wait until the army returns to victory, and then the treasury will allocate to reward the meritorious soldiers?"

Before Emperor Chongzhen expressed his objection, Zhu Chunchen's face turned dark: "Old Guo! Don't bully people too much!

If the army goes to war, it’s fine if you don’t allocate a tael of silver from your treasury. Now you still want to get the military expenses paid by Your Majesty to the Ministry of Revenue? Are you shameless!?"

Guo Yunhou snorted coldly, but ignored Zhu Chunchen, who was roaring wildly, and turned his "extremely earnest" eyes to Emperor Chongzhen.

Face? Can this thing be eaten or drunk? Or can it be exchanged for money? I am the Minister of Revenue, what do I want this thing?

I should pay more money to the Ministry of Revenue to pay money!

Emperor Chongzhen nodded meaningfully, and then asked, "What does Guo Aiqing mean?"

Guo Yunhou bowed and said, "I will tell you that the army will go to the Mughals and return to victory. At the beginning, it will be the autumn of the 14th year of Chongzhen.

With the treasury of this two million taels of silver, we can build more railways and allow the Ministry of Industry to repair some river bridges.

After the army returns, the Ministry of Revenue has the spring tax of the 14th year of Chongzhen as its foundation, and can be allocated to the Governor's Office in the Five Army in full. Isn't it a best idea to have both worlds?"

Zhu Chunchen snorted heavily and said, "Who in the court knows that Mr. Guo belongs to Pixiu! Can this silver be produced in your hands?"

Although he had long been thinking of not returning it after taking it off, Guo Yunhou still blushed and acted as shameless as His Majesty the Emperor. I can't do it!

Emperor Chongzhen, who felt a little amused, had long observed Guo Yunhou's expression, and had to smile helplessly and said, "Guo Aiqing should not make the idea of ​​making this money."

Even if this money is extra, it will be used to purchase weapons, ammunition and other materials. In fact, it will eventually flow to the national treasury. Why bother to hurry at this moment?

Besides, Mughals are different from small countries such as Myanmar and Siam. Their countries cover a large area and their domestic troops are not too weak. You must prepare more."

Hearing Emperor Chongzhen’s words, Zhu Chunchen and Zhang Zhiji bowed and said, “Your Majesty is wise!”

Zhu Chunchen and Zhang Zhiji, as for Mughals, actually did not have less understanding than Emperor Chongzhen, and even far more than Emperor Chongzhen.

In the impression of Emperor Chongzhen, Mughal was the third brother who was slaughtering shit with his left hand and grabbing food with his right hand. He was either slaughtered by the eagle sauce or was cheated by the Russians.

Especially the famous causal law of the kirizo in Zhanhushi's War, if his ship is not sunk, it is good; if his plane is not sunk, it is good...

For this magical country where missiles can play Brownian movement, Emperor Chongzhen didn't care much about it at all, and it would be better to kill him now, so as to save trouble in the future.

As for the Mughals now, that's a big deal? Even when they were the strongest, it wouldn't be difficult for the Ming Dynasty to press them to the ground to rub them, right?

But for Zhu Chunchen and Zhang Zhiji, that's not the case at all.

Judging from the information of the Jinyiwei and the information of the Five Army Governor's Office, the Mughal Kingdom's land area is about half of the Ming Dynasty, and its population is more than half of the Ming Dynasty. It is really a well-deserved enemy.

To be honest, even though the Governor's Office of the Five Army had been planning how to kill the Mughal Kingdom, he actually didn't plan to fight with Mughal so early.

After all, it is easier to fight to death first. Leaving Mughal to the end should be in the interests of the Ming Dynasty.

But man's calculations are not as good as God's calculations. No one would have thought that the guy named Cromwell would be so destined to be so destined, and he shouted the words "Ruler of the World" to make a great death. He not only killed himself, but also killed the Governor's Office of the Five Army, which led to the fact that he had to confront Mughal in advance.

Since we have to fight hard, in addition to sufficient troops, logistics and supply have become the top priority.

The Ming army has not given up swords and bows and arrows yet, and the army is still equipped with a large amount of equipment, but how can good things like muskets and cannons be missing?

Especially after Emperor Chongzhen bombarded Shenyang, the feeling of washing the ground with this cannon was like the trembling after visiting the brothel, lingering in the hearts of Zhu Chunchen and Zhang Zhiji, and it could not be removed.

Without saying that the artillery must be prepared in large quantities, and then go to Mughal to wash the floor with shells, then use muskets to open the way forward. Finally, let the soldiers hold their swords and sing songs and step onto the Mughal territory, and capture the king in front of the imperial court. It is simply perfect!

But in this way, the consumption of ammunition for artillery and muskets has become a big problem, and it also involves transportation issues. Hong Chengchou, the idiot, has not completed the railway until now!

Since the railway from Beijing to Wusizang and Duogansi has not been completely built, the plan to transport ammunition through the railway could only be stranded.

The most reliable route now should be to transport ammunition to the sea, to Myanmar through the sea, and then start attacking the Mughals from Myanmar.

In this way, the civil servants saved a lot of people and material resources, and transported more and faster ammunition.

Zhu Chunchen even chose the candidates for maritime transportation. It’s time to take the North Sea Fleet under Mao Wenlong’s troops out for a walk!

The South China Sea Fleet under Zheng Zhilong's troops did not say anything. They are still fighting against Kunlun slaves in Xi Kunlun. The East China Sea Fleet under Nanjuyi's troops is now blocking sea routes in Myanmar. Only Mao Wenlong's troops are still relatively idle.

Even if the combat effectiveness of the North Sea Fleet is weaker, it is not as good as the East Sea Fleet or the South Sea Fleet, but it is always okay to use it to transport ammunition.

Even these fleet soldiers adapted from the soldiers of Dongjiang Town were no problem landing as an army to use them, and they won two goals in one fell swoop!

Emperor Chongzhen, who had severe firepower syndrome, was even more interested in the artillery and washing Mughal's land after listening to the plans of Zhu Chunchen and Zhang Zhiji. It was exciting to think about it!

But after looking at Wen Tiren and Guo Yunhou, Emperor Chongzhen felt a little guilty.

It is certain that I want to go to the scene to see the fire and scrubbing the floor, but will this guy Wen Tiren lead all officials to advise you again?

This kind of thing is different from dealing with corrupt officials.

When dealing with the garbage, Emperor Chongzhen felt that it was not unreasonable. No one was trying to persuade him. If he said that skinning and solid grass would definitely turn those corrupt officials into scarecrows, there was absolutely no ambiguity.

Leading troops to personally attack Mughal and Wen Tiren and other civil servants are one of their jobs. You can't cut people down just because of this, right?

After pondering for a while, Emperor Chongzhen tentatively said: "First let the Nanjing Military Prefecture and the Duke of Qian send troops to support Li Chengyan, Cao Bianjiao and others, and be sure to defend Myanmar and not lose anything.

After Duke Cheng and Duke of England have selected the garrison, they will report to me that I plan to lead the Beijing camp and the other party to go with you."

As expected by Emperor Chongzhen, Wen Tiren bowed and said, "I have called you to your Majesty. Since Your Majesty returned from his expedition to Tatars, all parts of our Ming Dynasty have been in good weather and prosperity, and the country and the people are at peace.

However, when Your Majesty was expeditioning, there were many natural disasters everywhere in our Ming Dynasty. According to my stupid opinion, this is because the true dragon emperor did not live in the country."

...

Emperor Chongzhen, who was full of question marks, wanted to know how Wen Tiren came to such a conclusion?

The True Dragon Emperor does not live in the country? Wherever I go, it is the territory of the Ming Dynasty, isn’t it just in the country? Has I been in the country? Why don’t I know?

Isn't this bullshit!

If you don’t want me to go, just say it directly, there is no need to hide it!
