Chapter 83: The Empty Lantian
Chapter 83 The Empty Lantian
Yun Zhao does not allow the army to be infected with anything related to business.
Even if the Fenghuang Mountain Camp has become a prosperous town, the soldiers in the military camp can only be consumers forever and cannot become operators.
The identity of the Supervision Department is more sensitive.
They themselves wander on the edge of darkness. Once they were allowed to handle business, no matter how much money or Hanlingshan had enough ability to create a huge business alliance for the Supervision Department.
this!
It is absolutely not allowed!
Not only the army, the Supervision Department, but also the constables led by Zhou Guoping, are not allowed to be involved in business.
This was originally a ban in the army. After Qian Shaoshao proposed the secret spy department to do business, Yun Zhao found Zhang Guozhu again and told him that administrative officials except the business department were not allowed to do business!
Zhang Guozhu somewhat did not understand Yun Zhao's ban on military business.
Since ancient times, the army has been engaged in farming, doing business, and seeking military pay. This should be an encouraged act. Even if Lantian is not encouraged, it should not be prohibited at least, and such a severe ban is issued.
The Yun Zhao incident was unanimous with everyone in Lantian.
Even the most advanced Lantian military has never treated the military class as a real profession that can support a family.
For them, the army will always be one of the most expensive and food-consuming households in a country.
If we can save a portion of the money and food invested in the army, it is something that each of them likes to hear.
They didn't know at all that the profession of soldiers is naturally relative to merchants. Merchants are a group that pays attention to interests. For a real merchant, everything in the world has a price, and it doesn't matter if you sell yourself for profit, as long as the price is right.
Soldiers cannot do this. The essence of a soldier is to be strong, stubborn, sharp, and unable to adapt.
Soldiers who have lost these virtues have no combat power.
Similarly, the same is true for the Supervision Department and the Government Department.
Once laws, law enforcement, and policies become things that can be bought and sold, a country is not far from degeneration.
These things involve a lot of future knowledge and lessons, and Yun Zhao can't take them out to argue with these people. Instead of wasting time like this, it's better to directly order and determine the rules early when his orders can be executed without reason.
Zhang Guozhu asked a few questions, and saw that Yun Zhao's will was extremely firm, so he agreed.
Yun Yang wanted to ask, but after being glared at Yun Zhao, he changed to tell how ugly his military uniform looked, and that the military uniform that had little money looked good.
Han Lingshan's idea was different from others. He felt that Yun Zhao was preparing for the future and was worried about the pre-ban issued by the army, the secret spy department, the supervision department, and the constable in colluding with merchants to harm the interests of the people.
When the representatives were about to leave, Gao Jie was about to leave. His Third Army had 34,000 troops going to enter Shuzhong. Mr. Qinglong was also joining him in Shuzhong.
According to Yun Zhao's plan, after Mr. Qinglong helped Gao Jie to take down Chongqing Prefecture, he trained the Baigang Army and then took them out of Shuzhong and went straight to Yunnan to replace Yun Meng to start strategizing the southwest.
After shaved with bald head, Gao Jie looked heroic after putting on his new military uniform. Seeing him leave with a large group of troops in green military uniforms and carrying muskets, Yun Zhao's eyes became wet again.
At this moment, he believed that the invincible army in his memory would reappear on this land and move forward without any restraint until the ends of the earth.
"Don't worry, leave it to me in the Southwest!"
Mr. Qinglong looked at the soldiers in black surrounded by him, and was full of confidence in the future and himself.
"You have confidence in artillery."
Yun Zhao glanced at the artillery brigade that happened to pass by.
"Does Yun Meng have artillery under his command?"
"Yes, the number is no less than that of Gao Jie's subordinates. Yun Meng has worked hard in Yunnan for ten years and has everything he should have."
"Okay, if you can't go south to the southwest, Qinglong will never return."
"I don't plan to let you fight to the death."
“I know what to do.”
The proud Qinglong shouted and took the army of men in black who brought him back from Liaodong to catch up with Gao Jie who had already walked away, and headed towards Shuzhong with confidence.
This is the second Lantian army leaving Guanzhong without any concealment.
It also announced that Lantian officially broke with the Ming Dynasty!
The process of receiving the Ming Dynasty was truly started.
Yun Zhao couldn't be happy no matter what, but his body was trembling.
In fact, in the next month, Yun Yang's First Legion would leave Mianchi, which had been defending for a long time, and head towards the hinterland of Henan, with the ultimate goal of Jinan Prefecture.
Yunfu's Second Legion will also leave Nanyang and pass through Runing Prefecture to advance to Luzhou, Fengyang and Huai'an.
The Fourth Legion of Li Dingguo would also leave Lantian City and head south to take Xuanfu, and Datong would advance to Shuntian Prefecture.
As for Lei Heng's Fifth Army, he will leave Wuchang Prefecture and continue to move forward. After taking over Jiangxi that Zhang Bingzhong had just captured, the entire army will enter Zhejiang.
After Mr. Qinglong entered Yunnan, he would quickly arm the Yun family miners and jointly establish the 6th Army of Lantian with Yun Meng. In the southwest, he would not only fight against the remaining officials and nobles of the Ming Dynasty and the hurriedly formed troops, but also deal with the nearly 400,000 troops under Zhang Bingzhong.
Han Xiufen's ocean-going navy will continue to defend Malacca and occupy this military important area for Lantian. The general of the Lantian offshore navy Shi Lang will completely block the Ming Dynasty's sea frontier and expel Japanese and Korean navy, and will not allow anyone to set foot on the chaotic Ming territory at a critical moment.
In a blink of an eye, the New Year is here.
This year, Yun's inner house has little popularity.
Yunhu, Yunbao, Yunjiao, Yunxiao and other relatives have all gone to the place they should go, and Qian Shaoshao has also left Yushan City and disappeared.
It is not only the Yun family mansion that has become empty, but also the Yushan Academy has become empty today.
This time in previous years was the most tense moment for those students in Yushan who were preparing for the exam. They would not leave school and go home, but would focus all their energy on the upcoming high school entrance examination and the big exam.
Today, eighth-grade students don’t have to deal with the headaches in the high school entrance examination, and those ninth-grade students don’t have to have a headache because of poor performance and cannot achieve a good future.
They were all acted as experimental officials and set out with their seniors and the army.
The process is still the same. The army opens the way, and they are responsible for appeasement and management of the local area.
When they left, there were snow on Yushan Mountain. More than 3,200 village chiefs who were drawn from all over the country, including Yushan students from grade 8 and 9 who had not graduated, stood in the wind and snow and drank a bowl of farewell wine, and left Yushan sang a song.
The powerful soldiers left the pass, as usual, silently, without a huge oath-taking event, and without passionate pre-war mobilization. Six iron streams left their base in this cold winter day.
The group training in Guanzhong was almost 70%, and the remaining 30% of the group training did not start to rest like in previous years. Instead, they picked up their weapons and rushed to important places in Guanzhong, and took on the important task of defending Guanzhong.
Teams of trains and escort food and fodder and various military supplies left Guanzhong. Their tasks were very heavy. They were not only responsible for the logistics transportation of the six armies, but also had to bear the important task of defending officials of the Lantian governance.
It was already three o'clock, and orange lights in the big study leaked out of the crack in the door.
The large study room that used to be crowded is now particularly deserted.
Yun Zhao and Zhang Guozhu sat around the stove and roasted the fire, and roasted a few sweet potatoes and two cakes on the stove.
After the two of them ate two cakes with hot tea, Zhang Guozhu couldn't stand the quiet study room like a grave and said to Yun Zhao: "Are we considered a desperate bet?"
Yun Zhao sighed and said, "I originally thought there was still time, but Li Hongji's army actually took Tianjin within three days. A hundred miles away is the capital. I guess it won't take much time for them to take the capital.
The Ming Dynasty is about to end, and we must fill this vacancy."
Zhang Guozhu answered the question irrelevantly: "Is there really no problem with our battles in all directions? Will it not give the enemy a chance to defeat each other?"
Yun Zhao laughed and pointed at Zhang Guozhu and said, "What is the Ming Dynasty today? Don't you, the prime minister, know?"
Zhang Guozhu looked out the dark window and said, "Guanzhong is too empty."
Yun Zhao said: "Not empty, aren't you and me?"
Zhang Guozhu finally shook his head and said, "Let a million troops fight the world. Although this will make the enemy frightened, I still feel that it is too aggressive and should be done step by step."
Yun Zhao stood up and patted Zhang Guozhu on the shoulder and said, "Stop, I'll be busy tomorrow."
Zhang Guozhu shook his head and said, "I don't have to sleep, I'll just stay here and wait for news."
Yun Zhao smiled and put on a fur coat with Pei Zhong's help and left the big study room.
The long street outside the big study was empty, and only one dog heard the footsteps of Yun Zhao and others, and shouted twice. Soon, an army emerged from not far away.
The officer in charge saw Pei Zhong who was standing in front clearly and whispered: "Is Your Majesty going home?"
Pei Zhong said: "Yes."
Yun Zhao glanced at the young officer and said, "Why didn't you run away this time? There are opportunities to make achievements in front of you."
Xia Wanchun shook his head and said, "Your personal guards have been reduced by half. How can I leave with confidence?"
Yun Zhao took a step again and waved casually, "Look at you."
Xia Wanchun smiled bitterly and said, "You must be careful, our Guanzhong is too empty."
Yun Zhao suddenly laughed.
Because he found that as his footsteps sounded, the doors of every household would open, and a man holding a weapon would appear. These people all showed fierce expressions and looked around vigilantly. They would not close the door again until Yun Zhao left their doorstep, blow out the lights and go to bed.
"Zhang Guozhu, Zhang Guozhu, you haven't discovered until now that our greatest dependence is our own people?"
