Emperor Ming Dynasty

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the detailed report is in Longshan Lake on the Yalu River, which is inland and flows into the Yalu River because of the river."

Compared with the move of the Manchus to build the dock, Huideng was a little clearer, and they didn't hide it.

The Beihai Navy not only patrolled the Bohai Sea frequently, but even ventured into the Yalu River for the sake of war, spying on the reality of Manqing.

To this end, the Chief of Staff also got involved, dispatching engineers trained over the years to draw maps under the escort of elite soldiers.

After all, there are many mountains along the banks of the Yalu River, most of which are wild Jurchen tribes, and there is not much projection of Manchu power.

"Longshan Lake..."

Zhu Yixi shook his head, he had never heard of this place.

But it's okay, the built dock will be used at that time.

"Since Man Qing wants to build it, let him build it!"

The emperor suddenly laughed, and Prime Minister Hui Deng on the side shivered inexplicably.

"Is there anyone else in Jinzhou (near Lushun)?"

"There shouldn't be many people left."

Mrs. Hui Deng thought for a while, and said directly: "Before, Zongbing Li (Li Yingren) occupied an important place there and swept away most of the manor villages. The surrounding area is very empty."

"Jiannu directly gave up this place and guarded Fuzhouwei."

"Bring the map—"

Zhu Yixi didn't really know what to say, so he could only browse the maps drawn by the Chief of Staff in the past two years.

Thanks to the sweep of the navy, the Liaodong Peninsula is sparsely populated, and the maps are relatively detailed, and the general guards and cities are also clearly understood.

Looking at it this way, both Jinzhou and Fuzhou are basically still in the territory of the later generations of Dalian.

"What do you think is the right place to land from Liaodong now?"

When the emperor asked, Prime Minister Hui Deng was startled, and immediately said: "Whether it is Jinzhou or Fuzhou, it is too far away from the so-called Shengjing, so it is not suitable for a quick march."

With that said, Prime Minister Huideng pointed his fingers, skipped Gai County, and went directly up the coastline to the mouth of the Liaohe River:
"Although I don't know the situation of the Liaohe River, the navy can reach Shengjing directly from the river."

"If you are an infantry soldier, the path is the shortest. When going up the Hebei, there is no shortage of drinking water on the road. There are cities along the way, and it is convenient for soldiers to replenish themselves."

"Water and land go hand in hand?"

Suddenly, the emperor discovered a new bright spot.

"The navy went upstream, carrying supplies and baggage, and the infantry defeated the enemy and occupied the city."

"It's really a good way."

I'm going to say this?
Hui Dengxiang was a little confused, but seeing that what the emperor said was so reasonable, he could only choose to affirm it.

In fact, when the emperor wanted to say that he landed from Liaodong, he was not surprised, nor did he wonder why he didn't go from Liaoxi.

As early as when Wu Sangui crossed the sea directly from Kaesong to Incheon, he realized the importance of sea transportation to the imperial army.

As long as there is a boat, you can land on the coastline at will, and it is hard to guard against.

As for the west of Liaoning, the dozens of cities and fortresses were built by the Qing Dynasty into a long and narrow land of copper and iron walls, which has fallen behind the world.

But at this time, the emperor was still jumping for joy. He muttered about the three ways to advance together, the cooperation of the navy, etc., and fell into self-entertainment for a while.

Prime Minister Hui Deng didn't dare to disturb him, silently took out a folding fan from his bosom, on which was painted the appearance of Zhuge Kongming, with a jade pendant on the handle, which looked simple and elegant.

Although it is not as good as the lupine, it is not so obtrusive after all.

"Why, did you change the fan?"

Suddenly, the emperor came back to his senses and looked at the paper fan on the chest of the scarred Xianghui Deng, still feeling amused.

"Your Majesty, the general likes fans." Xiang Hui Deng said with a smile.

"what ever!"

Zhu Yixi waved his hand, he was too lazy to care about such trivial matters.

"Recently, the Beihai Navy's drills, you also have to take some refreshments, don't develop a wandering soldier."

"Don't worry, you will behead me when the time comes."

Whedon patted his chest, plausibly speaking.

The emperor ignored him, left the station on his own, and wandered on the beach.

The reeds are endless, the birds are flying everywhere, the fishing boats are wandering by the river, and the mouth of the Haihe River is quite lively.

"Such a good place can't be placed here."

The emperor muttered, thinking about the fort in his mind.

The establishment of Tianjin Prefecture does not mean the loss of its defense function, but it is even more important because of the advent of the maritime era.

Although the fort is conservative, it must be repaired.

After a few days of patrolling in Tianjin, the emperor did not take a leisurely stroll. Under the protection of Jin Yiwei, he walked around the countryside without permission in a micro-clothes.

The establishment of the township and the formation of the three elders of the township are the focus of his wait and see.

This kind of grassroots organization is very well established in Gyeonggi. The establishment of the township Zhang, township elders, and township police immediately liberated the county government and also violated the interests of the clan.

According to the past, people do not vote, and officials do not report.

But the three elders are close at hand, eager to see, how can they not know the truth, and the restrictions on the clan are slow and continuous.

For example, if a family loses cattle, sheep, or money, they will definitely not go to the county government, but now that the three elders are close at hand, they must go to someone who can make decisions.

Chickens crowing and dogs stealing, weddings and funerals, bridges and roads being built, and corvees and taxes all within a radius of tens of miles.All three elders have the right to participate.

And this also encroached on the right to speak of the local gentry.

Similarly, the three elders of the township who entered the stream as Cong Jiupin were naturally restrained by the county government, and the tax corvee dared not play tricks, and the restraint and exploitation of the common people seemed to be a little heavier.

There are pros and cons, who can speak?
Although it was just a quick look at the flowers, Zhu Yixi had a preliminary impression of the situation among the people.

Back in the city, the noisy city of Tianjin gave him the biggest surprise.

Thanks to the prosperity of shipping, merchants from the south continued to go north, and Tianjin became the first stop.

Cotton, hemp, silk, and wool are continuously piled up here, and then turned into a large textile field.

The girls in the city are more open-minded, especially the girls in their teens, who are willing to work in the weaving field and accumulate dowries for themselves.

After having money, the girls started to consume more, rouge, gouache, silk and satin fabrics, etc. also prospered.

For spiritual needs, besides storytelling, Kunqu opera from the south has also become a new favorite, and the babbling young lady is popular among women.

Market culture is becoming more and more prosperous.

However, for the literati and bureaucrats, Kunqu Opera is a low-level people, and only Zaju is the main drama, which can be on the stage of Yangchun Baixue.

Just as Ci was despised in the Tang Dynasty and admired in the Song Dynasty, Yuan Zaju was loved by the people in the Yuan Dynasty, and it became popular in the Ming Dynasty.

Without him, due to satirical allusions to the imperial court, it was repeatedly banned during the Hongwu and Yongle years, and the more banned, the more scholars and bureaucrats liked to watch it.

During the Longwan period, it was completely emptied. Instead, dramas such as moral education, eulogy, and immortality dominated the mainstream and gradually became empty.

As a result, novels occupied the mainstream of the market, allowing literati and bureaucrats to vent their emotions.

Writing novels was despised in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, but it has become a serious industry in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the history is so interesting.

Beijing is the most benevolent place with many rules. Zhu Yixi was very interested in the very different atmosphere in Tianjin.

When the emperor was wandering around the market with relish, Li Jizu, the chief soldier of Ji Town, was summoned eagerly,
