Everyone understands that due to the existence of the three anti-Qing forces at this time, the only way to prevent the civil war from breaking out after the Northern Expedition was to preserve their own strength.

Taking advantage of the time when everyone was "the flowers bloomed", Wu Zheng said in time: "Yanzhou was occupied by a 100,000 army of Dorbo, causing difficulties in our army's northern expedition... Ganyu!"

Wu Zheng poked the two words Ganyu on the map with his fingers, "It is the only place where our army can bypass Yanzhou from the coast... All the dukes must not miss the opportunity, and we will never come again!"

It is not that the Northern Expedition Army is concerned about the 100,000 troops in Yanzhou, it cannot become a fundamental obstacle to the Northern Expedition.

The young Dorbo is not the target Wu Zheng is afraid of, and even Chen Zhiyuan is not.

The reason for bypassing the Northern Expedition in Yanzhou is that the enemy is a friend, at least, it should be an ally!

No one objected again.

No one really dares to object.

In fact, as long as Wu Zheng did not hold this meeting and simply ordered the general, the general's mansion would quickly implement Wu Zheng's orders, and there would be no such debate today.

Is this obviously a kind of redundant thing to take off your pants and fart?

No, not entirely, although superfluous, it is indispensable.

Democracy and dictatorship are opposites.

But there can be a gray area between the two.

Wu Zheng wants this gray area, and he needs to grab time. At least, before opening up the civil wisdom, a military government is more executable and efficient than a formal court.

....

The army marched in, surrounded but did not attack.

This requires absolute discipline and execution.

Wu Zheng needed to select the chief general of this army.

Whether it is appropriate to lead the Taizhou Guard to station in Haizhou, Zhang Guowei and others, the objections of Wu Zheng, indeed, make Wu Zheng feel embarrassed.

Jiang Quanyi's "style" was indeed bad. Almost every battle there were "disobeying orders and disobeying orders". Due to Wu Zheng's indulgence on his subordinates, the newly promoted generals of the Northern Expedition Army, especially the middle and lower-level officers who came out of the military academy, were almost proud of their limited "disobeying orders and disobeying orders".

This is a sign worthy of "vigilance". Zhang Guowei, Fang Guoan and other old generals repeatedly reminded Wu Zheng.

But Wu Zheng has been "perfunctory" and delaying.

Isn’t Wu Zheng worried?

No, for Wu Zheng, the saying that power comes from the gun is unforgettable.

But Wu Zheng was not afraid of such "disobeying orders". He also firmly believed in one sentence that people with "temperament" always had some skills.

In Wu Zheng's mind, curbing and stifling a general's subjective initiative is equivalent to self-harm.

Then, we will limit this old system of soldiers following the general from a system perspective.

This is also the real reason why Wu Zheng founded the Jiangnan Military Academy.

The most different thing in the age of hot weapons and cold weapons is that mass production of elite soldiers has been possible.

Simply put, the assistants and generals in the Cold Weapon Age all came from the generals.

Ordinary children from ordinary families may not even be able to eat enough, so how can they have an outstanding physique and compete for such a very physically consuming battle on the battlefield?

The soldiers followed the general and continued to ban it repeatedly, and eventually became a big ending.

This is also the fundamental reason why the founding emperors had to take ruthless measures against their previous brothers once the imperial power was stable, because the emperor could not mobilize these troops at all, and the army only listened to those generals.

If you don’t clear the “portal”, are you waiting for someone to “clear the emperor”?

But the era of hot weapons is different. In just a few dozen days, or even dozens of days, an ordinary person who has just washed the mud on his legs can be sent to the battlefield by mastering a few simple steps.

Then, it doesn't matter if the generals confront Boone.

In this way, the chronic disease of following the general has been fundamentally solved.

In addition, the "baptism" of students' minds by the three major colleges in Jiangnan, and "loyalty to the nation and loyalty to the country" have gradually become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. As long as the General's Mansion does not subvert the concepts they adhere to, it will be impossible to have a group mutiny.

The rebellion that is not large enough can no longer intimidate the rule of the General's Mansion over the territory under its jurisdiction.

This is also the real reason why the Yixing Dynasty was in the past, and even if the Jianxin Dynasty had the righteousness of the royal family, countless civil officials and famous scholars could not shake Wu Zheng's status.

Wu Zheng has been making plans. It can be said that every step has its necessary reason.

This is a complete national transformation, and haste, no one can achieve it.

Wu Zheng did not want to argue with old generals such as Zhang Guowei and Fang Guoan, so he ordered Jiang Quanyi to return to Hangzhou Prefecture to report his duties.

....

Southwest of Yongkin Gate, on the shore of West Lake.

There is a relatively independent courtyard - the Princess Mansion.

Although there is no plaque, the sixth squad patrol officers in front of the mansion every hour make it impossible for ordinary people to get close to it and dare not get close to it.

Of course, there were some other courtyards and mansions here, but now they are gone.

It is said that if a horse is thin, don’t go to soldiers, and if a person is poor, don’t go to relatives.

But Wu Xiaomei is definitely not considered a poor person.

If she were poor, there would be no rich people in the world.

At this time, the famous Jiangnan Weaving Department covered an area of ​​800 acres. This was a strange existence in the territory of the King of Wu, where every inch of land was valuable. You should know that the King of Wu Mansion and the General Mansion in the front courtyard covered an area of ​​only 16 acres.

The Weaving Department has 30,000 weaving girls, 50,000 employees, more than 100 weaving workshops of all sizes and sizes, and less than 80,000 spinning machines.

The annual income of tens of millions of taels accounts for almost 30% of the annual income of the General's Mansion.

Can Wu Xiaomei still be considered poor?

The key is that Wu Xiaomei is the princess, an emperor of two dynasties and three generations, and the princess who was granted by the Ming Dynasty.

This is one more day than the princes and princes in Wu Zheng.

Yes, Wu Xiaomei’s original surname is Zhu.

It is really too difficult to keep secrets without airtight walls. It is no secret that this is being built on the upper floor of the new dynasty.

Don’t go to relatives when people are poor. In fact, people are rich, they cannot go to relatives, especially those who are sensitive. If they can, they will not leave, because this is related to politics.

Politics is always dirty, dirty, and killing people without blood.

Wu Zheng issued an order before, "No one mile in front of the eldest princess's mansion shall be approached."

Therefore, no one dared to approach the entire Hangzhou city, and even the speculators who have always regarded the direction of the wind and climbed the dragon and attached themselves to the phoenix were also discouraged.

In Jiangnan, no one dared to disobey the order of King Wu.

But there are always some people who are exceptions, such as Wu Bochang, Wu Bochang, and Princess of Wu, or Zhou Simin who could ignore Wu Zheng's reaction and insist on going to accompany Zhu Mei... There must be another person, that is Princess Wu Xiaomei.

Princess Zhou Simin cannot truly help Zhu Mei get rid of the reality of "circle ban".

But Zhou Simin could come and go freely under hundreds of troops day and night patrol, and no one dared to stop the concubine of the King of Wu, especially the concubine who gave birth to the eldest prince.

On the order of Zhu Ma, she invited Wu Xiaomei to meet at the eldest princess's mansion.

Wu Xiaomei began to hesitate, but after Zhou Simin said something, she agreed.
