Chongzhen chat group

Chapter 851 Various Rumors
However, there are only Qian Fugui in Shenyang, and it is indeed a bit rare. If possible, even if Jianlu can be an internal response, it is also possible.It's just a little hard to trust.

Emperor Chongzhen was thinking about it, but Qian Fugui chatted privately: "Group leader, Haoge was deposed as prince, and Aixinjue Luo Amin was sent by Huang Taiji to guard Liaoyang."

Seeing this, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help shaking his head, Hauge's status plummeted, so that the news from Qian Fugui's side came slowly.The news of Hauge's deposed prince has already spread to the Horqin Grassland.

He was thinking about it when Qian Fugui sent another private message: "Group leader, there are still some news circulating in Shenyang City, I don't know if it's true or not!"

"Well, what news do you want to hear?" Emperor Chongzhen asked immediately when he saw it.

Seeing that the group leader agreed, Qian Fugui told all the news he had heard.

"There are rumors that Hauge was abolished as the crown prince, and Huang Taiji has no other sons. It is said that he plans to appoint other brothers from the Aixinjueluo family as the crown prince..."

Emperor Chongzhen frowned when he heard this.Could it be that these words were passed on by Huang Taiji himself?In this way, the pressure on him from his brothers will be reduced a lot, and even in order to fight for the crown prince, one by one fights with each other, and also wants to please him, the emperor. Countermeasures against rumors.

While he was thinking, Qian Fugui continued: "There are also rumors that Huang Taiji wants to move the capital to the north. This matter is also very clear. One of the reasons is that Daming threatened Liaoyang, and Huang Taiji was sending people to Opening up wasteland and farming in the north, the few supplies and the like are being transferred there..."

Seeing this private chat, Emperor Chongzhen immediately felt that it was impossible.As the emperor, he naturally understood that moving the capital was not so easy, and it involved various things.Even if Jianlu had fewer things to do than Daming, it was impossible to say that he would be accommodating.

However, he also noticed some useful news from it, that is, Huang Taiji suffered from lack of food, and was afraid that Daming would send troops to destroy the harvest like last year, so he simply went to the north to farm.

According to the impression of Emperor Chongzhen in later generations, the Northeast region is one of the largest commercial grain bases in the country, and one of the important places is the Songnen Plain on the other side of Heilongjiang.It would definitely not be a good thing for Daming if he really wanted to let Huang Taiji go there to farm with peace of mind.How to do things needs to be discussed carefully.

"There is also news that Huang Taiji admits that Da Ming is strong, and that he can't defeat Da Ming now. Some people have proposed to withdraw all troops, just use Liaoyang as the boundary, and defend it to prevent Da Ming from attacking. It is also said that some people are already thinking about it. Seek peace with Daming, no longer mention the state of brothers, you can be affiliated to Daming as before, and guard Liaodong for Daming."

Seeing this message from Qian Fugui, Emperor Chongzhen twitched his mouth slightly, just to see, not to mention whether Huang Taiji would really do this, even if it was true, Emperor Chongzhen would still suffer from the truth that he would not die if he beat a snake. got it.There is only one possibility for Jianlu, which is to be wiped out!
"..."

Then Qian Fugui also told a few rumors, but none of them were major issues, so Emperor Chongzhen didn't take it to heart.He thought for a while, and told about Hao Ge and Hai Lanzhu, so that he could remember to lie.In addition, if there is any movement, it must be notified in time.

Then, he forwarded these messages to Liu Wangshi, Gao Yingyuan, and Wei Mulan, so that Sun Chengzong, Cao Bianjiao, and Lu Xiangsheng all knew what to expect.After arranging these, Emperor Chongzhen withdrew from the chat group, and his thoughts returned to the present.

Now Zheng Zhilong's Fujian Navy has returned to Taiping Port and is currently resting.Although heading north, the Fujian navy did not participate in direct battles.However, due to the difference in climate between the north and the south, as well as unforeseen circumstances at sea, the Fujian navy lost about [-]% of its strength.However, with this navy stationed, the fleets of the Netherlands and Portugal are much more secure. Then Xu Xiang doesn’t know if he hid or went to cause trouble. Anyway, I haven’t heard any movement recently, and it may be the New Year’s Eve The battle at Thirty was the reason why Xu Xiang was hurt?
How the Dutch and Portuguese fleets transported the food from Nanyang to the north to support the Liaodong battlefield is still a problem.After all, the Fujian navy has just returned, and it is not suitable to move northward for the time being, and needs to arrange to exterminate the pirates.

If you want to collect civilian ships to transport to the north, you still need to guard against pirates, and you still need to send a fleet.But if the Fujian navy cannot be mobilized, there is only the Denglai navy.But the Denglai Navy has a supporting role in Liaodong...

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly had a solution, so he first contacted Zheng Zhilong and Li Zhiqi through Liu Jinsheng and Zheng Zhiwan, and after getting their confirmation, he implemented this idea.That is, the Fujian navy first sent some warships to escort the grain northward, and at the same time the Denglai navy also sent warships southward. The two sides probably met in the coastal area of ​​Jiangsu Province, and then the Fujian navy returned, and the grain ships were escorted by the Denglai navy itself. Go to Liaodong.

Although it can be solved in this way, Emperor Chongzhen still felt the lack of maritime transport capacity and insufficient navy.However, in order to solve these problems, whether it is recruiting people or building ships, money is needed.As a result, Emperor Chongzhen was particularly worried about getting the sea trade on the right track as soon as possible after the opening of the sea.

No, before arriving in Suzhou, Emperor Chongzhen decided to go ashore and go all the way by land.Because the biggest head of sea trade is the raw silk business.And the raw silk of Daming is the most in the Taihu Lake Basin, and there is a famous saying that the lake silk is all over the world.

The concentration of lake silk is not in Suzhou City, but in the towns below Suzhou City.

The concept of towns at this time is different from the concept of towns in later generations.At this time, the size of "city" is much smaller than that of "town".Generally speaking, the residents of a "city" range from one hundred to three hundred households.Individual super-large "cities" have between [-] and [-] households.

At this time, the "town" is generally between one thousand and several thousand households.In some very large towns, the number of residents may even reach or exceed [-] households.For example, Nanxun Town, which is one of the places where Emperor Chongzhen is going this time, has more than [-] households.A large town like this is already fully qualified as a prefectural city. It depends on whether the government has set up a county government and built a city wall here.

Under the suggestion of Liu Xingzuo, the commander of Jinyiwei, who was the head of security for the emperor's tour this time, Emperor Chongzhen finally decided to go to Suzhou for a rest first, and then go to the towns below Suzhou.

After the abandoned state landed, a group of northerners saw that on the Jiangnan side, every ten miles or even every few miles, there were towns and villages, densely populated, which opened their eyes.

　Thanks to Forty Frogs, Emperor 1 of the Tang Dynasty, Qinshui Bingxin for their reward!
