Regarding Mao Wenlong, the emperor's previous relationship was a bit complicated.

In his analysis and judgment, it is indeed very unfair to kill Mao Wenlong in history by Yuan Chonghuan.

But Mao Wenlong's domineering self-righteousness was not a random fabrication. Despite all the complicated reasons, the emperor was still a little concerned about this.

Therefore, since the founding of Dongjiang Town, the emperor adopted a new model, which not only gave Mao Wenlong military command, but also controlled military discipline and food and salary, and also had supervision of the secret reporting system.

Now, the emperor has enough confidence to be able to firmly control the Ming army, including the Ming generals, and Mao Wenlong is no exception.

After a while of silence, the emperor spoke slowly and said, "Mao Qing, don't be restrained, you can look up and look at it."

Mao Wenlong trembled, and he quickly bowed to thank him, then slowly raised his head and looked at the emperor.

The emperor was very young. Although he had a beard, he was in his twenties, in Mao Wenlong's eyes, he was young.

The emperor's smile, if he didn't know how many corrupt officials and evil gentry have been killed in the past few years and how many criminals have been exiled, no one would think that the emperor is violent.

The emperor looked healthy, but he couldn't be said to be strong. But Mao Wenlong knew that the soldiers on the front line could make a contribution to the victory in a few years, but the emperor was an indispensable strong backing for victory.

Since Jiannu rebelled against the Ming Dynasty, Mao Wenlong has been in Liaodong. It can be said that he witnessed the entire Liaodong war. From the defeat of Sarhu to the fall of Liaoshen, Jiannu's rise swept through most of Liaodong, he saw it.

After three dynasties, Jiannu was finally suppressed and fled north in a mess. Although Emperor Tianqi was young, he showed decisiveness in killing and had amazing foresight and strategy.

Even Mao Wenlong always admires and is even frightened whenever he thinks about it.

Since the Battle of Guangning, the emperor's strategy was almost correct, and the generals appointed were all loyal and brave.

The renewal of weapons and equipment, the innovation of tactical and tactical strategies, the raising and transportation of food, grass and materials... All of these are the reasons for the Jiannu's defeat, and it is unimaginable without the strong support of the emperor.

"Long live!" Mao Wenlong only glanced at it, then bowed and bowed again.

The emperor smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Mao Aiqing has made great contributions to pacifying Liao. Gou Aiqing does not disappoint me, and he can be praised for his good intentions."

"The remnant of Jiannu fled north, and he was already in turmoil and died for no more than a day. I summoned my two beloved ministers to meet, just want to hear your strategy. Not only do you destroy the slaves, but I am concerned about rebuilding and stabilizing Liaodong."

"Tang, Song, and even this dynasty, the north was the enemy of the Central Plains dynasty, and Liaodong can also be called the source of war. During the Song Dynasty, there was Liao first, and then Jin..."

History is different, but there are also similar ones. Liao, Jin, and Qing dynasties all rose from the Northeast, causing a devastating blow to the Central Plains dynasty.

Therefore, the emperor not only defeated Jiannu, a major concern, but also built Liaodong into a solid base, expanded the territory of the Ming Dynasty to the north, and formed a more powerful defense.

In more than ten years or decades, Liaodong will no longer be the front line, but the rear.

"Long live." Mao Wenlong bowed and replied: "I think that although Liaodong is called bitter and cold, it is a fertile land. If it is good at managing, it can also become a prosperous land. As long as the population grows, the land for cultivation increases..."

The emperor listened and smiled, not feeling anything new.

To develop the Great Northern Wilderness and build the Great Northern Wilderness, the emperor understood and thought more deeply about various policies and measures than anyone else.

Population is indeed the most important. Without millions of educated youths going to the Northeast, they will still be called the Great Northern Wilderness.

However, relying on current productivity, transportation capacity and other factors, as well as the impact of major disasters, immigration and development to Liaodong will be a slow process.

Even if it was slow, the emperor didn't care much. As long as he kept pace and resolutely implemented the development plan, there would be no such thing as Jaxar and Nebchu in history.

Because, according to the emperor's plan, it takes not many years to reach Heilongjiang every year.

The Heilongjiang and the Greater Xing'an Mountains were not the emperor's ultimate goal. The emperor also wanted to include the black gold buried underground in Siberia in the hands of the Ming Empire.

The cold of the Little Ice Age could not destroy Tsarist Russia further north, the Mongolian tribes in the north, and it would not stop the emperor's will and the Ming army's pace of expanding borders to the north.

As for the confidence in the supervision and constraint systems he designed, the emperor no longer had to consider too much about the history of which minister. He could use it if he could use it, and retreat if he couldn't. No one could be domineering or even fostering troops to cause chaos.

"Build a fort ten miles, with roads connected, occupying a side garrison, and making every step of the way. A hundred miles are not the limit every year, and two hundred miles are also possible..."

The emperor pursed his lips slightly and agreed with Mao Wenlong's suggestion, while also believing that his courage and pattern were not as big as his.

It’s better to build a fortress than to build a city. He has thought of the name, such as Changchun, Siping, Harbin, Qiqihar, Jiamusi...

The strategy of building cities and roads is not only suitable for expanding borders from Liaodong to the north, but also for Mongolia. Hohhot, Baotou, Ulanqab... is just a goal that the emperor wants to achieve within more than ten years.

Jiannu had basically no chance of making a comeback. How could Lin Danhan, who was unifying the Mongolian tribes and repeating the glory of his ancestors, be the opponent of the Ming army?

The entire north of the Ming Dynasty was a game of chess, and the northward advance was the only strategic plan. By repeating Korqin and setting up Zhasak, Mao Wenlong also understood this clearly.

In this regard, Mao Wenlong supported the emperor and had great confidence.

Through the war in Liaodong, the court used huge resources to train and build a powerful army that could sweep all enemies. The weapons and equipment were crushed, and the cavalry walls pushed horizontally. Can this force still make it silent?

"The old place of Nuergandus was restored and included in the direct jurisdiction of our Ming Dynasty. I think it is not difficult to repeat the glory of Taizu and Chengzu under the command of His Majesty, the wise and powerful emperor..."

Mao Wenlong praised the emperor, paused for a moment, and looked up slightly to observe.

Hahahaha, the emperor laughed so hard, at least Mao Wenlong thought so, and he couldn't help but feel relieved.

"It is not only about expanding territory, but also steadily occupying and actively managing it." The emperor stopped laughing and said, "If the occupied land becomes a burden to the court, it is still enough for one or two years. No matter how long it takes, what is the meaning of it?"

The emperor pondered for a moment and said, "Mao Aiqing, I want to know how many troops Liaodong needs to complete the task of destroying slaves and expanding borders?"

Mao Wenlong hurriedly bowed and replied, "Long live back, I have repeatedly calculated and felt that 36,000 is enough."
