The first thousand three hundred and forty-nine chapters

"Oh, I understand." Zhang Han responded with a wry smile. This was not a headache, but he didn't want to set up a special person among his sons early. But now it seems that his mind is still wrong, and the sons will still have differences after all. This is the limitation of the times. Fortunately, there are ready-made examples from abroad, so it is not difficult to introduce them. You can't make your son like Zhu Ming's royal family. There is only one person, and the rest are raised as pigs.

This is something Li Shenming said conveniently. No matter Zhang Han’s two uncles, people related to the Chang family, or Sun Jingting or senior officials who are friends with Sun Jingting, it is not convenient to say this.

One is the foreign tribe of the Chang family, whose power is mainly Changwei, and the other is Sun Jingting, who is also the foreign tribe of Yu Niang, who has quite strong strength in the top management.

If it really becomes a battle for the throne, it will be really difficult to deal with at that time.

Zhang Han thought of this and said in a stern manner: "My son Zhang Zhen is the eldest son, of course heir to my future status, but it is not easy to do in name now. Why can Brother Zunlu teach me?"

"It's simple." Li Shenming smiled and said, "Set up a big banquet, which is said to be a strong banquet for the war. When the time comes, you will be able to carry Zhang Zhen out and call him Shao Gongzi or Yun Shaojun. Everyone will understand."

"Good, great kindness." Zhang Han praised: "Brother Li solved a big problem for me."

"That's right, that's right." Li Shenming said with a complacent attitude: "Each military command is responsible for its own duties, and he is in charge of the subordinate department and serves as a political official. Isn't it just that he has some advice on major policies and guidelines?"

Zhang Han smiled but said nothing. Li Shenming was leading himself to the prime minister who assisted in the Yin and Yang, but it was nothing. In the future, Li Shen was really a prime minister who had not escaped.

...

Wu Bo is wearing a gray jacket and clothes, and his style is the same as that of ordinary civil servants in the military department. He is simple and capable, and is different from military uniforms, but there is also a clear difference from the robes of ordinary Ming literati and doctors.

He carefully avoided a small puddle that had just melted snow, but a large cart drove by and splashed out some snow water on the hem of his robe.

Wu Boyu sighed and gently brushed the hem of his robe to talk about psychological comfort.

He returned from Xiaohe Fort a hundred miles away from Qingcheng. He moved his family to come at the end of last year, and some relatives also followed him. Wu Boyu is a juren, and his family spent a lot of money to support him. Before he passed the Jinshi exam, he became an aide first. He didn't make much money and was trapped in Zhang Han's hands. He saved a lot of money in the past two years, and he considered not to invest his hometown to buy land.

In the future, Hutchison and the Ming Dynasty will have a battle. This is the consensus of people with insight. It is very interesting to say when and how to fight this battle.

Wu Boyu is worried that war will be linked to war in the future, and it is inevitable that Hutchison will win. With the current weak national strength of the Ming Dynasty, it is impossible for Hutchison to be a rival... Wu Boyu is very concerned about information outside the Military Information Department, including things that the senior officials of the Military Information Department accidentally revealed, and thus he knows the terrible potential for war hidden by Hutchison.

Take this Eastern Expedition as an example. In two months, 80,000 combat soldiers and a considerable number of baggage soldiers were to be mobilized, and there were more than 10,000 four-wheeled chariots alone.

And there was not a single car in the Ming Dynasty, and the logistics capabilities were completely tragic.

At the same time, the Military Control Commission also prepared more than 500,000 stones of grain, including fine grain, rice and flour. There were also a large amount of coarse grains and beans for feeding horses, fine salt, side dishes, and canned food, and they also set off with the convoy.

At the same time, a large number of live pigs, cattle and sheep prepared by the agricultural and animal husbandry department recently were also concentrated in Qingcheng, as well as a large number of chickens and eggs, which were used to supplement nutrition for the soldiers in front of them.

In this regard, there is only a little dry food when going to the battle, and eating is a meal every day. How can the Ming army who is hungry for one day the next day compare?

In terms of weapons, all are the most elite weapons created by the Military Industry Department, including cannons, muskets, bayonets, spears, waist knives, shields, short swords, and guns. They are all from the factory assembly line and are forged with the best steel casting produced in Lingqiu. The armor is hard and well-worked, while the weapons are extremely sharp. After the full construction of the past six months, not only did they make up for the vacancies of each regiment, but also had a large amount of consumption reserves.

Wu Bohe has never fought a war and is not a leader, but the mountains of food and military supplies in front of him were seen with his own eyes. Hutchison's merchant army was training hard every day, and the Ming Dynasty could not even be trained every five days. The contrast between the two sides was too far apart.

In terms of financial resources, the Hutchison merchant army consumed more than seven million military pay per year, but Hutchison could still afford it and had more and more efforts.

This shows that Hutchison's financial resources are comparable to those of the central government of the Ming Dynasty, and are even more than that of the financial income.

The Ming Dynasty also had in-kind taxes, but they were consumed at all levels, and only some food was left to the center, ensuring that the military and civilians in the capital were not hungry.

There were more than 400,000 Han people on the grassland under Hutchison's rule, and Han people settled in Hetao one after another. The ability of Hutchison's Military Office headed by Zhang Han is unquestionable. Within a few years, at least 200,000 people could be moved into the Hetao area.

In addition, under the control and influence of Hutchison in Datong, and under the control and influence of Hutchison, and about 200,000 Mongolians, there were nearly one million people under Zhang Han's rule, and more than one million people in Taiwan and Kuandian, it happened to be over one million.

With a population of one million, he could raise an army of 200,000, as well as a huge overseas fleet and base, and was fully capable of threatening the life and death of the Ming Dynasty. In Wu Boyu's eyes, such a result was a miracle. Zhang Han must have been born as a saint. The so-called saint's appearance for five hundred years was born in Wu Boyu's eyes. In Wu Boyu's eyes, it was only three hundred years. Nearly three hundred years ago, there was Emperor Gaozu of the Ming Dynasty. Now the Ming Dynasty has internal and external troubles. It seems that the end of the dynasty is over. The time for the saint to establish the new dynasty is ripe.

The usual purpose of the propaganda department of the Military Intelligence Department is to use this matter as a propaganda point. It is not long before the national destiny of the Ming Dynasty was changed.

After the reconciliation, this statement became more obvious, but it was still impossible to point out clearly, after all, that was not conducive to spread within the Ming Dynasty.

The current propaganda center is still in the Jiubian area, which is where the Hutchison power region overlaps.

The capital area was very cautious and almost gave up when going south.

The gentry in Jiangnan was very powerful and paid great attention to the script and drama. If you were not careful, it would lead to unnecessary rebound, and it would backfire and not be beautiful.

When Wu Boyu heard the news recently, Zhang Han planned to remove the propaganda bureaus of the military intelligence and military orders, and set up a propaganda department to be responsible for propaganda promotion and master different propaganda methods of various classes. Wu Boyu knew that Zhang Han had always been very concerned about propaganda. Unlike the Ming Dynasty, the court had no awareness of this aspect at all. If there was any decision made by the court, only the court officials and literati. If you know the affairs of the court in the country, you can just interpret the mansion and copy it. Unlike the beginning of the founding of the country, Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty also attached great importance to this matter. There were Shenmingting in various places to educate the people and the people. After the dynasty, he gave up some good measures when establishing the country.

Because Qingcheng is narrow and has many people, Wu Bohe is only a middle-level official at the deputy bureau level. Although his salary is high, it is difficult to buy a house and settle down in Qingcheng. In addition, he did not send his income back to the family, and his return to the family was limited. In guilt, he brought many relatives to the grassland, resettled a lot, and spent a lot of money. Still, many tribe members rely on his family and family members to eat under his own family and had to buy a big house near Xiaoheihe Fort to settle their family members and relatives. Usually, they just run away from each other.

The weather has been warm recently, and many areas have bleed. Fortunately, there are roads built by the military commander, otherwise it would be muddy everywhere.

Wu Boyu retreated aside. Seeing the convoy of big cars coming out of Qingcheng, this time the big mobilization was even more powerful than when fighting the condom. There were many people talking about beating Lin Danhan on the streets and alleys of Xiaoheihe Fort. Everyone was very excited and high, because people knew that Lin Danhan was the last big banner of Mongolia. As long as they beat Lin Danhan and his Chahar tribe down, the entire Mongolia would be completely conquered by Huji.

Although there are also Virat Mongolia and the Tatar tribes in Central Asia, those are not considered serious Mongolian tribes on the grassland, which is equivalent to the feeling of a foreign country.

The conquest of Weilath and restored the Beiting and Western Regions should be the matter after Hutchison mastered a larger territory and obtained more human and material resources.

After the convoy left the city, Wu Boyu patiently waited for a cavalry of hundreds to leave the city. He knew that Zhang Han would take charge of the command of the Eastern Expedition this time. The garrison in the city was almost empty, and only a small number of troops of about a thousand men remained in Qingcheng, mainly to ensure the safety of the Qingcheng Army and Zhang Han's mansion. The situation in front of him confirmed the rumors. This time, he was afraid that he would do his best, not only to fight Lin Danhan, but also to fight with the Donglu.

After the army left the city, the South Gate resumed normal traffic. Since it was a period of strategic mobilization, the access control was much stricter than usual. However, when Wu Bo and the Military Intelligence Department personnel showed up, the guards immediately gave in.

Wu Boyu was a little embarrassed. In fact, he never felt that he was a military intelligence officer or a spy in an operation team that killed people without blinking. However, outsiders didn't quite understand that there would always be such a bad reaction to him.

Fortunately, the relatives of the tribe all live in Xiaoheihe Fort and did not have the chance to see this reaction with their own eyes. Wu Boyu could only comfort himself in this way.

After arriving at the location of the Propaganda Bureau, I couldn't help but complain to Zhang Yongan.

Zhang Yongan made a low-key hand gesture, and then whispered: "Sooner or later we will set up a new department and we will leave the military intelligence department at that time. Before that, you should be cautious when speaking. Will our official Yang feel a little uncomfortable when we hear it?"

Wu Boyu woke up and said that there may not be no military personnel around him and Zhang Yongan. After all, they are surrenders, not the core personnel of Hutchison, and it is natural to be monitored.
