Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 538 Great Changes in the World
Behind the Dongjiang army, no officials from the Ministry of Rituals needed to be introduced. As soon as they came out, the people in the capital recognized them.Because this army on horseback is the three major battalions under the Yumajian, and it is the Ming army they are most familiar with.

The chests of most soldiers of this army can be said to be covered with medals.There is no need for officials from the Ministry of Rites to introduce. The people in the capital can guess that there are medals for those battles: the Battle of Tianjin, the Battle of Tumote, the Battle of Nanyang, the Battle of Tashan, the Battle of Guihua City, the Battle of Jinzhou, The Battle of Grassland, the Battle of Yaozhou Station.It can be said that almost all of Daming's war victories over the years have been represented by the three major battalions.

For this army, the people of the capital gave the warmest cheers!And the three major battalions were not surprised, and gave the emperor the greatest cheers.

From the previous appearances, it can be seen that the army with higher merits will appear later.One of the most intuitive evidences is that there are more and more medals on their chests.However, what surprised the people of the capital and even many civil and military officials was that there was actually an army behind the three battalions.

This army is obviously the finale army. They are all infantry, and the number is not large. It can be seen at a glance that there are no other troops behind them.In this way, everyone who saw it was even more strange.Some impatient people couldn't wait to ask the people around them.

"Which army is this? It's the finale army?"

"You ask me, who I ask, I don't know!"

"It's strange. Have you seen the medals on their chests? There's only one piece. Why are they the last ones?"

"That's right, it's true that there is only one medal but it is at the end. Could it be that this army has some credits that we don't know about? But, it shouldn't, this army only has one medal!"

"..."

When they were all discussing, Zheng Zhilong, who was standing in the ranks of military officers, didn't see the words on the flag, but he recognized it at first sight, that was his subordinate, selected from the Denglai Navy to participate in this battle Army on parade.

Before, he was puzzled.Watching the troops passing by, there was no sign of the Denglai Navy.He even wondered for a while, might it be because he found that the navy had made too little contribution, or that the Battle of Lushun Bay, which defeated the Jianlu Navy, was too simple, so he disqualified the Denglai Navy from the military parade?

To be honest, Zheng Zhilong had such doubts when he saw the Dongjiang Army and the three major battalions all appearing, and the Denglai Navy had not yet been seen.

In fact, the navy has always had no status, which is also recognized.Even if such a situation occurs, in the eyes of everyone, it is reasonable and there is nothing wrong with it.

But at this time, Zheng Zhilong was stunned when he saw that the Denglai Navy had appeared as the finale.No matter what, he didn't expect to be the last to appear.

After recovering from the initial shock, Zheng Zhilong, as someone who had talked about the future with Emperor Chongzhen, probably guessed the emperor's intentions immediately.The future belongs to the navy!

Having reached this conclusion, Zheng Zhilong immediately showed a very excited expression, and turned to look at Emperor Chongzhen with enthusiasm in his eyes: The last general will definitely do his best to carry the Ming flag to the end of the ocean!

At this time, some people in the capital had already seen the words on the banner clearly, and they were all stunned. For a while, there was a rare quiet moment in Fengtianmen Square.

Seeing the reaction of the people in the capital, these soldiers of the Denglai Navy were actually uneasy.

When we were still at the Royal Horse Prison camp, when officials from the Ministry of Rites came to arrange the order of appearances, some people questioned whether there was a mistake. Even the Denglai navy officers themselves thought there was a mistake.

However, the officials of the Ministry of Rites only replied to them at that time: "This is an imperial decision, and there will be no mistakes!"

Since it was requested by the emperor, the other troops have nothing to say.When the soldiers of the Denglai Navy came out at the end, they inevitably lacked confidence in their hearts.

After the people in the capital reacted, they all started whispering, nothing more than wondering why a mere naval division appeared in the finale?
Although their words were not spoken loudly based on etiquette, they were eventually heard by many sailors.In this way, they are even more guilty.Even when they walked, they didn't have the momentum of the army in front of them.

Emperor Chongzhen on the top of the city had been parading troops all the time. Seeing this scene, he understood what was going on.

Therefore, after the officers and men of the Denglai Navy shouted "Long live my emperor", suddenly, Emperor Chongzhen said loudly: "Although I only awarded a medal to the Denglai Navy, a good fighter has no great merit. It is because the Denglai Navy is invincible at sea that it has guaranteed a series of victories against the captives. I can say that without the Denglai Navy, Ming would not be able to turn the tide of the battle in one fell swoop, making Jianlu unable to parry..."

Hearing this, the soldiers of the Denglai Navy thought to themselves, no!If it weren't for them, the Dongjiang Army would not have existed at all, and the previous wars would not have been effectively dispatched, nor could the materials be transported to the maximum extent.Without them, Da Ming could only push through Ning Jin's line of defense step by step...

Thinking about it, the officers and men of the Denglai Navy involuntarily straightened their chests.For Emperor Chongzhen, on the basis of the respect due to the emperor, there is also the mentality of being kind to others.

After listening to others, the explanation of Emperor Chongzhen was acceptable.Only some serious people secretly compared the three camps in their hearts, feeling a little unconvinced.However, the emperor has said so, so the emperor's golden words can only prevail.

They were thinking about it, but they heard Emperor Chongzhen say again: "The great change in the world is the biggest in history. The future of our Ming Dynasty will largely depend on you. I think you are qualified to be the finale, I believe in you, you will not let me down!"

Only Zheng Zhilong had foreseen his words.Zheng Zhilong was the only one who could understand what the emperor meant by the great changes in the world.
However, the others were all dumbfounded.

The great change in the world is the biggest in history?Doesn't this mean that Jianlu is going to be destroyed, isn't this world going to be peaceful?Even if there is the Southwest Shapu Rebellion, it is nothing more than a trivial matter.The emperor must have made a slip of the tongue, right?

Although it is such an idea, the emperor is wise and mighty, so it is definitely impossible for him to say something wrong.Besides, didn't the emperor say that Daming's future depends on the Denglai Navy, so what does this mean?Is it necessary to rely on the Denglai Navy to win, and the enemy comes from the sea?

Needless to say, many people think along this line of thought.Especially those important officials of the court, knowing the emperor's attitude towards Xiyi, and thinking of the things about Xiyi mentioned by the emperor before, they probably understood why the emperor said that.

However, these people far away in the northern capital, whether they are ordinary people or important officials of the court, do not know enough about the threat of Xiyi.Therefore, even if someone thinks of it, it is a bit disapproving.However, the emperor has made such a decision, and it can only be like this.

What they didn't expect was that soon, the prophecy of Emperor Chongzhen began to gradually manifest.When that time came, they all couldn't help admiring the emperor's foresight.

After the military parade is over, there will be a grand court meeting in the Huangji Hall. In layman's terms, it will be a year-end summary meeting.

Chongzhen's 17-year treasury income, because the bank has started to make a lot of money after these years of accumulation.However, the most important thing is to verify the preferential exemption quota for officials and gentry and call for payment of owed taxes.

Zhang Pu, a "cool official", presided over this matter, and Changshu conspired against and dismissed hundreds of officials. The article was supported by Sun Chuanting, Minister of the Ministry of Officials in Nanjing, and Yang Tinglin, the censor of Zuodu, Nanjing.It can be said that Zhang Pu did not encounter many difficulties in his work in the southern provinces.Especially after the sugar-coated shells were useless, it was even smoother.

Although the cleared tax fields and the collected tax arrears did not enter the national treasury and were directly used for local people, they greatly relieved the pressure on the national treasury, making other aspects more incoming and less outgoing, so the surplus would naturally be greater. .

The profits of the glass factories, although not yet the bulk of the treasury's revenue, have already begun to emerge.It can be foreseen that even if it does not become the largest income of the national treasury next year, it will definitely become the largest income of the national treasury the year after.

After talking about money, it is a matter of civil and military matters.

In terms of Wude, the most important thing is the war against captives, as well as the restructuring of the Jingying and Jingji local guards.After the troops eliminated from the regular army were transformed into engineers, they built roads and bridges. To sum it up in one sentence, their achievements were limited.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't care about this.In this day and age, road construction is entirely done by manpower, how fast can it be!Besides, even the cement has not been developed, and the ground is soaked by rain, so it must be busy again.

Emperor Chongzhen remembered this matter in his heart. Although he didn't know the specific cement formula, he had read a lot of historical travel novels anyway.Cement was always mentioned, and he had an impression of the general situation. He would tell Song Yingxing to test it later, and he would definitely be able to test it out.After all, Xiyi already had this thing, so the difficulty shouldn't be too high.

In terms of writing, there have been many things in the past year.

Liaodong and North Korea are going to set up new provinces. Although the Jiankui have not yet been completely wiped out, the emperor has already ordered that they be selected and some will be sent there first.This situation is a big one, and the progress must be reported.

In addition, even the achievements of Nongsi must be clearly reported to the emperor.There has not been much progress on the hybrid rice project led by Nongsi.After all, there is no plastic, no greenhouse, and the experiment is completely done in a natural environment, and the progress is very slow.However, the other things of Nongsi, such as the promotion of sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn, etc., made the emperor quite satisfied.

Kaiwu Division is even more sensational across the country.The lesson that the emperor taught the prince has been spread all over the world with the palace newspaper, and the shock caused by it can be imagined.

In fact, Emperor Chongzhen also contributed to the flames secretly, and he hoped that the seeds of technology would germinate.

……

After everything was done correctly, Emperor Chongzhen said: "This year's situation is good, and I hope that the next year will be even better. As all the ministers are about to celebrate the New Year, I will announce another happy thing."

After finishing speaking, he nodded to Cao Huachun, the eunuch in charge of the supervisor of rites.

When Cao Huachun saw it, he immediately bowed to salute the emperor, then stepped forward, carefully picked up an imperial edict from the imperial case, and turned his head to look at the queue of generals below.

　The child's energy is too strong, I am willing to bow down!
