"I grant you the right to mobilize the army at critical moments."

Ying Yi said: "Under my rule, for at least a long time, the mining rights of metal deposits such as gold, silver, copper and iron will not be delegated to the public."

This is the reason why the Moshi Department was awarded the mobilization of the army.

The trend of civil mining in the Ming Dynasty was extremely strong, especially after the combination of interests between civil officials, landlords and merchants occupied the mainstream in the middle and late periods, the country gradually lost its power in this area. Since the Wanli period, Shenzong launched a mining tax supervision department, and used eunuchs to supervise mining in various places and collect mining taxes. In order to regain power in this area, it was subject to large-scale boycotts.

The so-called competing for profit with the people is reflected here vividly.

Let’s not talk about the pros and cons of mining tax supervision.

Because mining was controlled by the interest groups of civil servants and landlords and merchants, the state's finances were not enough to make ends meet. To take back this power, it became a struggle for profit with the people. As a result, it was collectively opposed by all parties, and various pioneers came out to criticize, and even fought with force. By the Tianqi period, Wei Zhongxian carried forward this cause and therefore went further and further on the road to treacherous officials.

Although Nanyang was poisoned by the thieves, how could the thieves see the value of the mines with the short-sighted eyes of the thieves? The mines and iron houses in Nanyang are still in the hands of the landlords and merchants. If Ying Yi wants to take them back, he must use force, otherwise he will never succeed.

Such things can only be done when a force starts, and use force to open the way. If you ignore them, it will become increasingly difficult to deal with in the future - the big landlords and big merchants are not fools, they will definitely try their best to win over the new ruling group with their interests. If Ying Yi ignores them, wait for three to five years, he will not know how many people under his command will be won over into this interest group, or the big landlords and big merchants will simply invade into the ruling group under Ying Yi and become one of them. Once Ying Yi wants to deal with this matter, he will suffer a huge rebound.

We must set a benchmark as soon as possible and set the rules. In the future, we can follow this example without hesitation.

For example, commercial taxation is the same. You must first set a benchmark and set standards.

This has great benefits, and of course, the disadvantages are not small. For example, the areas that have not been ruled by Ying Yi will spontaneously oppose Ying Yi and block Ying Yi's expansion. But Ying Yi doesn't care - as long as the sword and gun are sharp enough, crush them and kill them.

The world that is made by real swords and guns is always more stable than what you get by compromise.

Ying Yi must hold everything related to minerals on the ground in Nanyang - at the beginning, these resources must not be controlled by others.

What Ying Yi wants is to be proactive, not passive.

Therefore, the Moshi Department has a heavy responsibility, and it is not as useless as before.

In the large-scale smelting of gold-yuan alloys, iron materials are the first, copper materials are the second, and silver is the third. This alloy is actually only related to these three raw materials, and is only the basic material of the components. Compared with ordinary steel and even various alloys hundreds of years later, it has huge advantages, but in the component system, it is only the lowest-end material.

However, the production scale of this alloy is the basis of the component system. The basic things have low performance, but the practicality is the strongest and cannot be ignored.

"It's August now, and I plan to complete the establishment of the gold-yuan alloy production line by October at the latest." Ying Yi said, "You have two months to grasp the Nanyang Minerals and the entire iron shops in various places, and orderly include them in the responsibilities of the Moshi Department. Once the gold-yuan alloy production line is completed, the demand for three raw materials, copper, iron and silver, will increase sharply. Don't let the production line and other raw materials!"

"Yes, lord." Jiang Xi was extremely solemn.

It took three days to level the valley and divide the equipment resettlement area and other infrastructure construction. At the same time, a steady stream of 100-steel steel ingots were transported here, and Ying Yi began to draw the Yuanqu.

The three ingredients in the Jinyuan alloy production line are much simpler than those in the Bafang Tower and the Earth and Mizu ritual. There are only fifteen ingredients involved, among which the smelting ingredient involves two basic ingredients, each of wood, earth, and water. There are three ingredients, and six ingredients; forging ingredients include four ingredients, two ingredients, two ingredients, and one ingredient; the ingredients are mainly metal, earth, and one ingredient; the ingredients are mainly metal, earth, and one ingredient.

Ying Yi started from the smelting of the corpus, and combined it with the ratio of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, six, three, two, two, two, two, and six, three, two, two, and four, and the corpus symbols were engraved on each steel ingot that formed the smelting of the corpus according to the corresponding rules.

There cannot be any mistakes or any mistakes.

The portrayal of each Yuan Talisman must follow the principles of Yuan Talisman itself. Only under the most microscopic and three-dimensional perception of the powerful soul, and under the most subtle and exquisite force of the powerful body, can it be successfully portrayed.

Every time a Yuan Talisman is carved, Ying Yi will have a deeper understanding of the mystery of this Yuan Talisman, just like the meaning of reading a book hundreds of times is revealed. Repeat it again and again, and the insights bit by bit, and some principles are gradually accumulated.

During this period, war reports came from all over the country.

Zheng Wu led his troops south, first gathered Zhou Li in Wuyang, and then divided his troops. He was headed by Zhou Li, and Qian Yue helped him in the east to attack Runing Prefecture. Zheng Wu personally led Li Huan to assist him in conquering the counties in Nanyang.

The Eastern Route Army of Zheng Wu's troops was progressing smoothly, and the Ming court did not have a strong military force in Runing Prefecture. It is still possible to resist the bandits by local officials, but it is a delusion to resist Zhou Li and Qian Yue's troops.

Zhou Li and Qian Yue have many veterans, especially Zhou Li and Qian Yue, who are strong in their bodies, cannons first. When siege the city, they first use artillery and then organize elite soldiers. The two of them take the lead in attacking the city wall, and the power to break the city is almost gone.

When Ying Yi received the war report, Ru Ning Mansion had already started all the counties under its jurisdiction. The bureaucratic system of the Ming court was destroyed, and the provincial governor's yamen and the imperial court could hardly follow up continuously.

Now Zhou Li and Qian Yue are still stationed in Runing, one in Xinyang and the other in the mall. We have to wait until the provincial government office and the Imperial Law Office build the governance framework to stabilize order before we can withdraw.

Compared with Zhou Li and Qian Yue's Eastern Army who led the troops to capture the Runing Prefecture, Zheng Wu personally led two troops to capture Nanyang counties. After capturing Nanyang, the capital of Nanyang Prefecture, he encountered 20,000 troops under Yang Wenyue on his way south to Xinye. He defeated the troops led by Yang Wenyue in a fierce battle and killed Yang Wenyue in the chaos.

"After Yang Wenyue was defeated, the counties in Nanyang had no more strength to resist."

Ying Yi put down the battle report and smiled and said, "Runing Mansion has already bought it, Nanyang is soon."

Then he said to Ye Bushang, who sent the war report: "Go back and tell Zheng Wu that once the prefectures and counties are conquered, they will be stationed on the spot, mainly to suppress, supervise public order, and prevent riots. If there is any recurrence in the area, just catch the landlords and merchants and beat me hard. Also, pay attention to Huguang and Huainan, and beware of the Ming army coming again."
