Since so much silver is not in the hands of the country, who will it be in? Of course, it is in the hands of the rich and powerful. In layman's terms, there are three types of people: big landlords, big merchants, big bureaucrats. Officials at all levels of the Southern Ming Dynasty were all real rich people. The six great ministers of the Southern Ming Dynasty had all the wealth of less than five million taels of silver. Xu Xingxia could cut off his head.

More importantly, Jiangnan has always been the foundation of maritime trade. Whether it is the estuary of the Yangtze River, Hangzhou Bay, or Yuegang, Guangzhou, Macau and other places in Fujian, they are important foreign trade ports. Special commodities such as silk, tea, porcelain, etc. in China were transported from these ports. At that time, after these commodities were transported, the ships that came back were basically filled with silver.

It would be unreasonable if the White Army didn't help. If Nanming was willing to give money, the White Army would not move to Jiangnan for the time being. If Nanming was reluctant to save money, the White Army would have to launch troops against Jiangnan. Even if there were no infantry and navy, the cavalry would still be dismounted. If there were tens of thousands of musketeers who would suppress them together, how long could Jiangnan resist?

The Southern Ming Dynasty had a fatal place, which was that it had no effective army. Since the Japanese pirates were completely eliminated, Jiangnan's military affairs had long been slacked. The guards in Jiangnan had long been in name only. As for the war soldiers, there were no war soldiers in the Jiangnan area. Even in Nanjing, there was no decent army. Who would have thought that the situation of the Ming Dynasty would have such a change? It was simply too unexpected.

Compared with the Southern Ming Dynasty, the Northern Ming Dynasty seemed to have a greater advantage. There were troops, minerals, resources, and military factories in the north. The original army of the Ming Dynasty was basically left in the north. I won’t talk about the three major camps of the capital. The troops under the jurisdiction of the other five major military towns, who had lost the fleeing, had the remaining ones totaled, and there were probably 300,000 to 400,000 people.

There are also many minerals in the north. The minerals in Shanxi, the iron ore in Liaodong, and the gold ore in Shandong were all highly valued by the original imperial court. As the war slowly entered the firearm era, the demand for various minerals was increasing day by day. Iron ore was the most urgently needed mineral. Without enough iron ore, it would be impossible to produce weapons and equipment.

It turned out that the imperial court's military factories, including the Military Weapon Bureau and the Military War Bureau, were all opened in the suburbs of Beijing. The latest artillery casting workshop was also in the suburbs of Beijing. Now, King Fu has mastered the surrounding areas of Beijing, and these two major institutions. Naturally, they are controlled by the Northern Ming court. This is not good news for the Southern Ming court. There is no place to produce weapons and equipment around Nanjing. There is a Longjiang shipyard, but unfortunately it has been closed.

Compared with the Southern Ming Dynasty, the tax revenue of Beiming was certainly not that abundant. The land in the north was barren and the grain output was low, which was incomparable to the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River. However, the foundation accumulated by the Ming Dynasty for many years was in the north. Emperor Wanli's Neichang warehouse must have some savings. The powerful people in the capital were also very rich. When necessary, digging out the money in their si people's pockets would be enough for Beiming to last for a while.

The Fuwang Party is not stupid either. They also know that the income from financial resources and taxes in the north is not as good as that in the south. If it persists for a long time, it will be unfavorable to the north. Therefore, after seizing the power of the capital, the first step to do is to detain all the powerful people in the capital.

These people are fattening pigs, and they will slaughter them whenever they need them.

Before the meeting began, Zuo Guangdou said anxiously: "Sir, you are the son-in-law of Emperor Taichang. Now Emperor Taichang urgently needs your assistance. Please let the Chairman down and take the initiative to lend a helping hand! As long as the Chairman takes action, I think Emperor Taichang will definitely feel endlessly."

This is an urgent hope that Xu Xingxia publicly stated that she had taken the team.

Originally, the prince of the Ming Dynasty had no power, and it was even more impossible to master military strength.

But isn't this a special situation now? Under the current special oak situation, everything can be changed. What is Xu Xingxia's crime? The crime of the Fuwang Party is the most serious. Xu Xingxia is considered a riot at most, but the Fuwang Party is plotting against rebellion and usurping the throne. The blind man can tell which is more important. The current urgent task of the Nanjing court is to destroy the Beijing court first. Under this premise, everything else can be given up.

Zuo Guangdou also knows a little about the news from Jiangnan. Now, what Nanming needs most is military support. Especially in the current messy situation, the Southern Ming court urgently needs a powerful army to protect its safety. Xu Xingxia, the son-in-law, appeared so timely. At this time, any grudges in the past can be temporarily put aside. Even his own survival cannot be guaranteed. What else do you want to say?

Xu Xingfu knew exactly what was going on. Zuo Guangdou was so anxious that he felt worried about the fate of the Donglin Party behind him. I guess this time, the Donglin Party really felt that the crisis was coming. They must abandon their previous prejudices and firmly hold the white-clothed army to protect the safety of Nanjing. What kind of son-in-law and son-in-law are all used to make a fuss, so they must not take it seriously. Maybe, Zuo Guangdou is scolding himself for being greedy and getting more and more flawed.

The Donglin Party is attacking Xu Xingxia, and Xu Xingxia is also attacking Nanjing. Don’t you need my army’s help? No problem. My army can just enter Nanjing City. What? No? Haha, if the white army cannot enter Nanjing City, other things,

The white-clothed army ignored it. He smiled on the surface and said, "Mr. Zuo, don't worry. I, the prince consort, have anyone admitted it? That's all I have to say."

Zuo Guangdou hurriedly said, "How could it be? The Chairman and His Highness, the princess, are a talented man with a beautiful woman, a hero with a beautiful woman, a world-famous pair of unparalleled couple!"

Xu Xingxia said with a smile: "Sir Zuo, do you think I should go to Nanjing City? I would like to greet my old Taishan in person?"

Zuo Guangdou was delighted and hurriedly said, "Of course, this is a must."

He subconsciously thought that as long as Xu Xingxia arrives in Nanjing, it will be like a sheep entering the tiger's mouth. As long as he finds a way to bind him, things will be easier to deal with. Xu Xingxia is the core of the White Army and the spiritual Hun of the White Army. As long as he finds a way to control Xu Xingxia, it is equivalent to controlling his powerful White Army. Unfortunately, his joy was soon extinguished, and replaced by deep fear and deep entanglement.

What are you afraid of? What are you entangled? The white-clothed army! Xu Xingxia went to Nanjing City in person, could he not bring the white-clothed army? The current garrison force in Nanjing City is already very weak. If Xu Xingxia brought tens of thousands of troops to the city, let alone Nanjing City, even the entire Jiangnan would be over.

To put it seriously, isn’t this a way to attract a wolf into the house? Think about it, with Xu Xingxia’s style, would it be possible for the white army to leave if it enters Nanjing City?

Zuo Guangdou felt a sense of energy and hurriedly added: "But, there is no hurry. The Chairman is busy with military affairs. The journey to Nanjing is long and the time is long. I think the Chairman does not need to do it in person, so as not to delay the fighter plane. The Chairman only needs to send one or two capable subordinates to go there to show the Chairman's sincerity."

Xu Xingxia said intentionally or unintentionally: "Don't I go there in person?"

Zuo Guangdou said with a smile: "His Majesty Emperor Taichang will definitely understand Chairman."

Xu Xingxia sighed slightly and said with a little regret: "Since that's the case, there is nothing you can do. What you said is that it takes a long time to get to Nanjing here and it is easy to delay fighter planes. As the commander of the army, I really can't leave for too long. Let's do this, I will send 10,000 musketeers to Nanjing first to be responsible for protecting the safety of Nanjing City... What do you think? If I feel that the number of people is not enough, I can add some."

Zuo Guangdou complained secretly. This Xu Xingxia is really a guy with a bad stomach. You can easily avoid going to Nanjing while climbing at night, but you insist on sending 10,000 troops there. Isn’t this going to turn the tables and take Nanjing for yourself? Be good, 10,000 white-clothed army musketeers are enough to deal with the Ming army that has tens of thousands. That is the elite Ming army.

If these ten thousand white-clothed army musketeers really arrived in Nanjing, I was afraid that Emperor Taichang would become a hostage to the white-clothed army. This is absolutely impossible.

"Chairman, the army is also far away from the journey to Nanjing, and it is exhausted. I don't think it's necessary. Besides, the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River are very different from the arid places in the northwest. I am afraid that the soldiers of the army will not adapt to the local conditions and affect their combat effectiveness when they arrive in Nanjing. In fact, Henan and Shandong are the key transportation links between the north and the south. As long as your army guards Henan and Shandong, the thieves in the north will not dare to launch a troops south." Zuo Guangdou said as tactfully as possible.

Even if he was cut into pieces, he would not dare to let Xu Xingxia send his troops to Nanjing City.

Otherwise, all the bosses of the Donglin Party must drown him with saliva. The ideal situation is of course that the White-Clothed Army is located in Henan, Shandong and other places, and divides the Northern and Southern Mings. In this way, under the protection of the White-Clothed Army, Nanjing City is safe.

Xu Xingxia deliberately looked at Zuo Guangdou with his eyes cursed and said with great regret: "It seems that Lord Zuo doesn't believe us! Isn't this intention to send us far away? Does Lord Zuo think that our white-clothed army will arrest His Majesty the Emperor as hostage when we arrive in Nanjing?
