As for the commander Wang Wenjun, he had already arrived in Nanjing City.

But he did not stay in Nanjing for a long time.

After all, as a supervisor, Wang Wenjun still has a bit of the ancient style of Confucian generals, and he is determined to move his supervisor to Zhenjiang.

In his opinion, the Yangtze River waterway is guarding the Yangtze River and close to the canal, which is the fastest news distribution center. There are emergency delivery shops from all directions nearby, so that messages can be delivered quickly.

Of course, in private, he despises Nanjing City quite a bit.

After all, he read a lot. After studying the classics and history, he came to a conclusion that in any marching and fighting, except for Emperor Taizu of this dynasty, those who are involved in Nanjing will undoubtedly be defeated.

Although a gentleman does not believe in ghosts and gods, he still feels that this thing needs to be taboo, because it is too evil.

As soon as the commander was established, Wang Wenjun immediately issued an order to summon the provinces and the generals to come to see him.

The guards from all over the country also had many generals and guerrilla generals. He talked one by one. Then, he selected thirty-seven people from them and ordered them to recruit soldiers, follow Qi Jiguang's method of training, and gave them a new book of Ji Xiao, warning them that you would do your best to practice. Once the thief comes, I will guard here and dispatch it in the middle. You should use your life to give the thief a headache!

All the generals took the orders one after another.

In the past few months, Wang Wenjun summoned governors and governors from various provinces, either to coordinate the funds and stock exchanges, to allocate grain, or to arrange for the establishment of coastal water camps and fortresses in various provinces.

He was the right censor and the supervisor. He was humble and had a good time with everyone. The officials yearned for him and were respectful to him.

Of course, he did not give Ji Xiao's new book to these civil officials. It was something that martial artists thought about. Wang Wenjun gave it to him, but his collection of essays was his usual time, and they were all some of the insights of becoming an official in the second half of his life.

It is probably... life is wasted, complaining about the sorrow of being full of poetry and books and not being able to use it.

Or, after age, I look back at my life and find that my white hair has grown early and I have fame and fortune, but I also find that everything is finally written for a handful of loess.

After seeing it, the ministers exchanged one after another, and couldn't help but be impressed by Wang Wenjun's literary talent. They couldn't help but sigh and ask Wang Wenjun for advice.

Wang Wenjun naturally had his own set of theories and once said to others: "These words and poems are not for fame and reputation, but they are actually portrayals of my life. I have few confidants in my life, but it is hard to find a confidant in my life, but I am not sad about it. In the end, the breeze knows me and the bright moon knows me."

As he said, he said, "This bandit invades soon, and we are responsible for a huge relationship. Because of this, we need to keep our own mind and nature. If our mind is settled, then the bandits will be no problem."

Everyone suddenly realized what the supervisor meant.

Some people couldn't help but sigh: "What the prince said is very good. What the king fears most is impatient. Whether it is greedy for merit or impatience, he will not be able to lose his troops. Since ancient times, many defeated generals have been like this. The prince and his grandfather guarded the six provinces and controlled the military affairs of the world. He was still so leisurely and elegant, which was quite like Xie An in the Wei and Jin Dynasties."

Wang Wenjun smiled and said, "The responsibility is serious and I dare not slack off, but I only rely on these Xu Yaxing to please me. There is no need to say anything extra. We should try our best to eat the king's salary. I heard that the gentleman in ancient times could not change his appearance. Now... the military situation is urgent, and the pirates are about to come. I am just forcibly calm down. Where can I compare with the famous scholars of the Wei and Jin Dynasties? Well, there is no need to say too much if you praise him."

Everyone laughed and couldn't help but nodded secretly, but they thought that Wang Wenjun was really a wonderful person.

Judging from his demeanor, not to mention his supervisor, he is even a Grand Secretary of the Cabinet.

The civil servants are all scholars. What scholars pay most attention to is demeanor. This demeanor contains many things, including your tone of speaking, your words and demeanor, and your messages.

It is definitely not a false idea that Wang Wenjun can become the right censor.

"Prince, there is something wrong with the officials. That was a few days ago, the court reported that it was a Donglin Army stationed here in Nanzhili. All the military officials came to pay homage to the prince, but the people from the Donglin Army did not come. I wonder why?"

When Wang Wenjun heard this, his face looked a little embarrassed: "The Donglin Army has never taken others seriously. Even if I am the supervisor, they may not be able to look down on me."

"Isn't this arrogance?" Someone couldn't help but yell: "If such troops cannot be allocated, how can they be used in wartime? The prince came with a decree."

Wang Wenjun was not angry. He was very kind and comforted everyone: "You guys don't have to be angry about this. I think that if they do this, it must be that Governor Zhang has any hidden secrets."

After hearing this, everyone sighed: "The prince is so envious, and he really admires it."

Wang Wenjun just smiled and continued to lower his head to drink tea.

For him, this supervisor was effortless. The governor and the prefect communicated very smoothly, with almost no obstacles.

As long as people are coordinated, everything will be safe.

However, another month later, the reports from Nanjing and Fujian and Guangdong made Zhang Jing worry.

On the one hand, the Qianhu House of Fujian and Guangdong has been confirmed in Luzon and Ryukyu and other places, and Europa is indeed coming with a huge fleet.

Not only Spain, but also the Portuguese and the Dutch. In addition, there were a large number of Swiss mercenaries and the military horses of the French Kingdom.

This was almost a joint action that came out in full swing. I don’t know if the Dutch people were so clever that they actually meant that almost all the major powers of Europa hoped to come here to get a share of the pie.

It is said that there are hundreds or thousands of ships, but as for the number of warships among them, it is unknown.

I only know that the scale is particularly large.

Before the fleet arrived, urgent fast ships arrived in Luzon, Sumatra, and even Ryukyu, asking them to urgently stockpile supplies, especially food and gunpowder, to prepare for the vast fleet, and almost all colonies were building simple docks and ports in advance for supply purposes along the way.

Although I had been mentally prepared for a long time, I still didn't dare to underestimate Zhang Jingyi when I learned that I was coming.

On the other hand, it was the news sent by the Nanjing City Jinyiwei. They recorded the actions of the supervisor after taking office and sent them to Zhang Jingyi.

After seeing it, Zhang Jing was very disappointed. At first, he was not very disgusted with Wang Wenjun's ability. After all, the responsibility of the supervisor was to communicate, manage several provinces well, allocate resources well, learn from the former governor Hu Zongxian, and then let the generals in front fight well.

But... this guy's actions made Zhang Jingyi feel a little mysterious.

Therefore, he urgently went to Xiyuan to talk about this matter.

Emperor Tianqi was also stunned: "What is this person playing with? What is he going to do? I asked him to go to Jiangnan, not to write poems and essays."

After saying that, Emperor Tianqi was furious and immediately summoned all the scholars in the cabinet to meet.

Huang Liji and others are busy, please see you.

Before they could salute, Emperor Tianqi said, "Let me see for yourself."

After saying that, he ordered the eunuch to submit the report to them for circulating.

After watching it, everyone didn't say anything.

Emperor Tianqi said: "As a supervisor, how can you be so incompetent?"

Huang Liji said awkwardly: "Your Majesty... your official leisure..."

"Is this official leisure? When is this?"

"Your Majesty..." Yang Jingchen, the Minister of Rites, coughed and said, "I think most of the people who have always commanded the army are good at this, and there is nothing wrong with it."

Since the Minister of Personnel was transferred to the Minister of Works, there were also ministers to be appointed to the Minister of Works. Therefore, the ministry of these six ministries has undergone some adjustments. Now the new Minister of Rites is Yang Jingchen. Yang Jingchen, who is also from the Hanlin Academy, and he has a great reputation. His greatest achievement is that he is the deputy editor-in-chief of "Three Dynasties".

Although "The Three Dynasties' Essentials" is just a book, this book is roughly equivalent to "Yongle Encyclopedia". At this time, editing the Essentials is the most important responsibility of the minister. For example, the editor-in-chief of the Three Dynasties' Essentials is often the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet. Of course, the Grand Secretary is very busy and can only be responsible for some proofreading work. The real editorial matter falls on the deputy editors like Yang Jingchen.

This is the fat in the fat, because almost all ministers dream of writing books. It not only has its name left in history, but also means that your knowledge must be profound.

And knowledge... is the most important measure for scholars to enter the officialdom.

As soon as the "Three Dynasties' Essays" was completed, Yang Jingchen immediately became the Left Minister of Rites, and soon he was promoted to the Shangshu, which was almost certain.

Emperor Tianqi glanced at Yang Jingchen: "What does it mean to be true?"

"Your Majesty, the Confucian generals of ancient times, are like this." Yang Jingchen said: "A great brave man is calm in the face of danger, is good at strategizing, and wins thousands of miles away. Hasn't this been the case in history? Your Majesty just calms down his anger. I think that the prince is like this, which makes him quite confident."

Emperor Apocalypse: “…”

Zhang Jingyi couldn't help but say, "The so-called allusions of the ancient Confucian generals are probably far-fetched by history, but they just conform to everyone's appetite. Which general who commands the army is not working day and night, trying his best to make ends meet day and night, and there are so many elegant excitements. I have also commanded the army. Every time I am in battle, I am extremely anxious, for fear of being neglected, let alone the governors of these six provinces. The life and death of thousands of people are in their hands."

Yang Jingchen smiled, looked at Zhang Jingyi with a look of a bit of hairy look, and said with a smile: "This is different. The lower officials are talking about Confucian generals. They are not military officials like the governor. What is there to be a difference between civil and military officials."

Emperor Apocalypse: “…”

Immediately, Emperor Tianqi glared at Huang Liji.

You are the Chief Secretary, you have to say something!
