Daming One Piece

Chapter 230 Great Ming Qi Number (Part [-])
break!

The so-called breakup is actually the imperial court’s suppression of the local powerful factions. Beigang is a chieftain, but it is different from the chieftains. In Guizhou and other southwestern chieftains, Beigang is all from the Ming Dynasty. There are refugees from Liaodong, refugees from North Zhili, Shandong, Henan, Shaanxi, Shanxi, and South Zhili, and of course, there are gentry families from various provinces.

Such Beigang, even if some people say they are "savage barbarians", no one will believe that they are Ming people, the same Ming people as the inland provinces!

Most importantly, Beigang has its own army!

It can even be said that Beigang is the only local powerful faction in Ming Dynasty, the Mu family in Yunnan only has a name, and the military town in Liaodong only has family members, and the payment of military appointments depends on the imperial court.

But Beigang is different. He collects taxes and trains his own army. Although the land and sea divisions are not strong, the navy divisions are also rampant.

Of course, the most important thing is to have money!

Beigang is rich!

Even richer than the imperial court, relying on the profits from overseas trade, Beigang earns no less than tens of millions of taels a year, and there is also the big granary in the South China Sea, all of which are Beigang's strength.

Have food and money, but worry about not having an army?
The only fly in the ointment?
too few people!
But there are fewer people, less than the slaves of the past?

Therefore, the Beigang rebellion... There is absolutely no problem.

"So, we need to make some plans in advance. You and my friends in the mainland can always help out a little bit. The most important thing right now is to transport people here first, and to create opportunities as much as possible."

Create opportunity?
What kind of opportunities to create, I am afraid only they know.

"But over there, my lord..."

My lord is aiming overseas...

"My lord's ambition is overseas, but... there are some things that he can't avoid if he wants to!"

Conspiracies are always brewing when no one is paying attention, even Shi Yiwen himself does not know that there is an undercurrent surging in Beigang.

At this time, for Shi Yiwen, he would rather spend more time in the South China Sea than jumping into Daming's muddy quagmire.

Ambitious overseas!

As a pirate, can you not value overseas?

But this does not mean that Shi Yiwen doesn't care about Daming. In fact, as early as the last time he went to Daming, he had established an intelligence network in the capital and other places, and has been paying attention to the changes in the situation in the capital.

Although history has undergone too many changes since the "Wang Gongchang Rebellion Case", the remnants of the Donglin Party were exiled, the power of Wei Eunuch fell to the opposition, the people were dying, the great victory in Liaodong, the Mengtar, Shi Yiwen didn't care about things like the epidemic in Donglu. What did he care about?
Will Apocalypse slip into the water!

"According to historical records, Apocalypse should have fallen into the water this summer!"

Once again, Shi Yiwen looked towards the north, the weather in September, even in Beigang, could feel a bit of coolness.

"Until now, it still hasn't disappeared. It should be that it didn't fall into the water!"

Talking to himself, Shi Yiwen's mood even seemed a little complicated.

From his brief contact with Tianqi, he can feel that Tianqi is definitely not the so-called "carpenter emperor", he is even a black-bellied master.Cuizhu Wei Zhongxian did crowd out dissidents and practiced lawlessness.But he really doesn't have the guts to pretend to be an edict.In fact, even if Tianqi is obsessed with carpentry, he still has a good grasp of the affairs of the court. As for Wei Zhongxian, such a power eunuch, most of the time, he is just a tool in the hands of the emperor.

Squeezing out dissidents may not be what the emperor needs.

Perhaps, this is also the reason why Emperor Tianqi fell into the water later - because the civil official group saw through his "hidden clumsiness" and saw through his means of using Wei Zhongxian as a tool.

So, he fell into the water...

Of course, Wei Zhongxian once again dealt a near-destructive blow to the civil official group with the help of the "Wang Gongchang Rebellion Case" two years ago. Will the civil official group still have the ability to fight back again?

Shi Yiwen has no answer in his heart, the only thing that is certain is that until now Tian Qi is still living in the capital, at least there is no news that he fell into the water.

"Hey, I don't know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing..."

When he was muttering in his heart, Shi Yiwen's emotions were complicated. If Tianqi hadn't died, even if Tianqi died and the crown prince succeeded in a few years, there would be no such thing as the diligent Emperor Chongzhen. At that time What did the Great Ming Dynasty look like?
For this, he has no answer in his heart, but one thing is certain is that it is extremely unfavorable to Beigang.The more chaotic the mainland, the better it will be for Beigang.

Only in the long-term chaos in the mainland can Beigang receive immigrants continuously.

But now?
"My lord, according to the information we got from Xi'an, since Gao Yingxiang conspired in Ansai, he has been leading his troops in Yanqing Mansion. This person used to be a horse trader. He was good at riding and shooting, and he had extraordinary physical strength. Go into battle At that time, he was dressed in white robes and white scarves, took the lead and defeated the officers and soldiers many times..."

Listening to Li Hengze's report, Shi Yiwen frowned slightly.

Gao Yingxiang, this name has finally come!
And Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng... What will they look like when they rise up?

"In addition, there are local bandits such as Wang Jiayin and Wang Ziyong in Shaanxi. At present, there are civil disturbances all over Shaanxi, but they are still within the control of the government. Even if the local bandits join forces, the government should still be able to deal with them, and if necessary, they can do so at any time. Mobilize frontier troops to quell the chaos."

Shi Yiwen has no doubts about Li Hengze's judgment. After all, the current financial situation of Ming Dynasty is far better than that of another world, and there is no Liaodong constraint. As long as the imperial court is willing, they can even transfer the elite frontier troops of Liaodong to Shaanxi to quell the chaos. Of course. , right now they definitely won't do that.

After all, in history, even at the last moment, they were still hesitant to mobilize frontier troops.I am afraid that Mongolia and Manqing will take advantage of the loopholes.

"Then what about the capital?"

Looking at Li Hengze, Shi Yiwen asked.

"How's the situation in the capital this year?"

Actually, what Shi Yiwen really cares about?
It is nothing more than whether the emperor is safe or not, and whether the prince is safe or not.

The answer was not unexpected. When he learned that Tian Qi was still in good health, Shi Yiwen felt mixed feelings in his heart, and finally he couldn't help but let out a sigh from the bottom of his heart.

Apocalypse is still alive!
That being the case, let's focus on the South China Sea!
As for Daming, I'm afraid it's resigned to fate. As for the future, it depends on Daming's fate...
