The talent problem has always been a big problem that troubles Zhu Youlang. Many positions in the court are in a vacant state. If he encounters the need for a large number of officials to recover the province, he will have even more headaches.

Zhu Youlang really wanted to educate talents by himself, and the Taixue had already established it, but the subjects taught were still the Four Books and Five Classics, and there was no modern science, which did not meet Zhu Youlang's wishes. Moreover, the Taixue was not hosted by the great scholars, and a good learning atmosphere had not been formed.

As for the scientific examination, there is no need to think about it. Now there are wars everywhere, so how can I have time to do this?

I hope that the knowledgeable people from the Qing dynasty area will come to vote, but the effect is not very good now. Apart from Huang Zongxi, Li Yong, Hatis, Jiao Ni, two foreigners who came to Wang Fuzhi for recommendation, no one has taken the initiative to vote.

Is my governance philosophy recognized by the scholars and officials? Or is it because I have no confidence in the Southern Ming regime?

In fact, I am already working hard to eliminate bad policies and trying hard to minimize various factors affecting social conflicts, but I still cannot get recognition from the scholars and officials? Is it because I have eliminated the privileges that the scholars and officials have, I cannot get recognition from them?

Besides, since I ascended the throne, I have won two consecutive victories. The Qing soldiers have not yet gained any benefits from me. In theory, it should greatly boost the morale of the military and civilians to resist the Qing Dynasty. Isn’t it optimistic about me?

Zhu Youlang thought for a while, but he still couldn't get the idea. But one thing he thought clearly - governing a big country is like cooking a small freshman, this statement makes sense.

If the whole country is liberated at this time, you will not be able to solve the problem of talent alone, let alone the major problems of political system and insufficient economic foundation.

It's not good to be fucked.

Zhu Youlang sighed deeply.

...

Jin Shenghuan's surrender letter arrived, and Zhu Youlang immediately announced the Grand Secretary to the palace to discuss matters.

Except for Qu Shixi who had already known about it in advance, no one else knew about Jiangxi. When they heard that Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren killed the official, they all congratulated Zhu Youlang one after another.

"My dear friends, don't say anything happy. I'm just a big shot now. Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren are indeed exciting anyway. However, the entire Jiangxi territory has not been taken down yet. This is one; Liu Tongchun, the capital of the Qing Dynasty, escaped, and the Qing army will inevitably take revenge. They will definitely advance in large numbers next time. How to defend Jiangxi is another problem; and the candidates for the Third Department of Jiangxi are even more troublesome. Everyone should discuss it."

After Zhu Youlang finished speaking, he rubbed his temples.

A headache, sometimes good things may not be good.

"Your Majesty, your headaches are all good things, it's better than bad things." Qu Shixi said.

"It makes sense to start the field. People are worried about three meals a day. How can they solve the next meal after eating this meal? The dignitaries and nobles are not worried about their livelihoods. What they are worried about is how to make more money, how to get more power, and how to improve the quality of life higher; and like me and my beloved ministers, what they are worried about is how to drive away the Tartars and how to make the world rule. It seems that the sorrow is also of high quality." Zhu Youlang said.

Everyone laughed.

"The emperor's desire to seek governance is a sign of light. I dare to say that it will take not long to achieve the emperor's long-cherished wish." Wu Bing said.

"Get back to the point, get back to the point." Zhu Youlang quickly raised his hand to stop.

If he doesn't stop it, he will be afraid that another sage competition will be held.

"Your Majesty, I am in charge of the Ministry of War, so I will talk about it from a military perspective." Chen Zizhuang came out to listen.

"Tell me." Zhu Youlang signaled him to continue speaking.

"Emperor, although Jiangxi was in the hands of the Qing soldiers in the past, the Qing soldiers were unable to open the battlefield in Jiangxi because the war between the east and west sides was started, and our dynasty adopted the strategy of defending the east and attacking the west, and had no time to take care of Jiangxi. Now that the matter of Jin Shenghuan comes, the Qing soldiers will inevitably take revenge. Since this, our dynasty was under the enemy from three sides and was under great pressure. For this reason, I think that Zhang Jiayu and Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren's troops should immediately cooperate to quickly take down Ganzhou and open up the north-south passage. After that, if the Qing soldiers come quickly, they will defend Nanchang; if the situation slows down, they can take down Jiujiang at the right time." Chen Zizhuang pointed to the map and said his plan.

"Yes." Zhu Youlang pondered without saying a word.

He was trying to search for the memories in his mind.

According to historical records, after Jin Shenghuan was correct, Tan Tai led an army of 200,000 to attack Jiangxi. At that time, Jin Shenghuan was attacking Ganzhou and was eager to retreat to Nanchang.

The Qing soldiers used Jiujiang as their logistics base and besieged Nanchang for eight months. Later, they asked He Tengjiao for help. Because He Tengjiao was too busy to take care of himself and did not send troops to rescue him. In the end, the Qing soldiers were out of ammunition and food, and they were captured by the city and were both killed.

Speaking of this, Jiujiang and Ganzhou are indeed important barriers to defend Nanchang. If they are in the hands of our army, they are of great significance to defend Nanchang.

Needless to say, Jiangxi must take the defensive momentum, and wait until the east road is in trouble before making a free move, and choose Jiangxi or Hunan to launch a counterattack.

"What Jisheng saw is exactly what I want. Jiangxi must take the defensive momentum at present. If you want to defend Jiangxi, you must defend Jiujiang, Nanchang and Ganzhou. I see that the clear army must first take Jiujiang as a baggage base, then Ganzhou, and finally besiege Nanchang. These two places cannot be defeated, and the Qing soldiers dare not attack Nanchang because they will fall into a situation of being attacked from both sides." Zhu Youlang said.

Seeing that the emperor agreed with his analysis, Chen Zizhuang was very happy and continued to say: "In this way, the emperor, I suggest that Zhang Jiayu go north quickly and Jin Shenghuan's troops leave Nanchang, cooperate with Zhang Jiayu, and take down Ganzhou first."

"First Ganzhou and then Jiujiang, this order is correct. However, the Qing soldiers would not give them that long time. Zhang Jiayu had been idle for so long, so he asked him to attack Ganzhou by himself. Jin Shenghuan immediately sent troops to attack Jiujiang." Zhu Youlang said.

Speaking of this, Zhu Youlang sighed again: "In this way, Jiangxi will have two troops, one is Zhang Jiayu, the other is Jin Shenghuan, and there is also a lack of a commander who is firmly in the central army's account."

His meaning is very obvious. Zhang Jiayu is his confidant and the Grand Marshal of the Central Army, but he lacks sufficient resources. If Jin Shenghuan is in command, Jin Shenghuan may not be convinced. But if Zhang Jiayu is in command, will Zhang Jiayu be convinced?

If there is a governor who convinces both of them and unified command and coordinate the two troops, he can quickly respond to the ever-changing battlefield situation.

It is best to be the first to be in charge of the army, but I have my own plans and cannot leave Guangzhou for the time being, so who should I send?

Is He Wuzuo recommended by Qu Shixi? If he was sent there, if he only hoped for this, I would be Jin, and Zhang and others would not be convinced.

"Your Majesty, why bother? I think that since Zhang Jiayu is the Grand Marshal of the Central Army, let Jin Shenghuan be allowed to obey Zhang Jiayu's command, so that he can be justified. Although Zhang Jiayu has not fought a big battle, he is loyal and talented, so he can definitely impress Jin Shenghuan." Lu Daqi suggested.

"Okay, okay, how can Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren be rewarded?" Chen Bangyan asked.
