Zhu Youxiao was naturally very familiar with people like Hong Chengchou and Yang Sichang.

Especially Hong Chengchou.

Zhu Youxiao clearly remembers that although this person was not as honest as ever in history, he was indeed very capable.

During the Chongzhen period, he and Lu Xiangsheng performed best when they encircled and suppressed the peasant army.

Even after surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, even the Qing nobles were ready to give up the five southwest provinces because Li Ding Guotai was able to fight, and helped the Qing Dynasty occupy the entire land of China.

It can be said that if it weren't for Hong Chengchou, it wouldn't be so easy for the Qing Dynasty to destroy the Southern Ming forces.

But Zhu Youxiao did not eliminate some people who had not yet time to betray the nation and the country just because of what had not happened in this era.

As an emperor, based on the principle of using talents as much as possible and using as many talents as possible for his own use, he still intends to give Hong Chengchou and others some opportunities to perform even though they have suffered great losses in history.

Otherwise, Zhu Youxiao would not have been promoted to their official position, and he has always been paying attention to his career.

But, Zhu Youxiao did not expect Hong Chengchou to disappear.

This made Zhu Youxiao feel a little depressed.

If you can be a dog for the Qing Dynasty, you can’t be a dog for me?

Is it just because what you do is depriving your class of interests?

However, are you, Hong Chengchou, not a speculator that can betrayed by the same nation, and you still care about selling your own class interests?

Zhu Youxiao was puzzled by this.

Then, Zhu Youxiao suddenly thought of what he had known about the gentry training overseas.

Therefore, he hurriedly ordered Wei Zhongxian: "Wei Zhongxian! Dongchang must find out whereabouts of this person, live to see people, die to see the body. If this person can no longer be used by the court, then he will try his best to assassinate him! Is the families of all missing officials controlled?"

"I obey the order! Dongchang decided to carefully find out the whereabouts of Hong Chengchou. However, if the emperor returns to the emperor, we can no longer control the families of these missing people, because when the slaves know that they are missing and send people there, even the missing people disappeared, and even the land has been sold."

Wei Zhongxian replied.

Zhu Youxiao was stunned after hearing this and said, "I'm really considerate! It seems that there are really many stubborn people who don't give up. I want to go against me!"

Zhu Youxiao can basically conclude that 80% of those who are quite capable in history, such as Hong Chengchou and Yang Sichang, have stood opposite to him as the emperor.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but look at Xiong Tingbi and Yuan Keli, who returned to Beijing to report their duties under the order, and couldn't help but think: "I don't know if Xiong Tingbi, Yuan Keli, and Sun Chuanting are the opponents of Hong Chengchou and Yang Sichang around him in the future."

"I sent an order to send an order to the officials of Jiuqing, etc., as well as all the veterans staying in Beijing to see me in the Diligent Office!"

Zhu Youxiao suddenly gave an order.

He knew that he had to deal with this matter seriously, if the reactionary gentry forces at home and foreign foreign enemies and foreigners united.

Therefore, he had to discuss and discuss with his confidants seriously.

...

A place called Kugashima not far from Nagasaki and Hirado.

In a Chinese-style house, there were now a group of reactionary gentry such as Hong Chengchou.

Hong Chengchou was frowning and glanced at the direction of the middle ground, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes, and then he glanced at the gentry mercenaries who were being trained on the island.

"Hong Gong has always been good at reading military books, but I wonder what his evaluation of these soldiers and heroes is."

Yang Sichang, who was sitting here with him, asked about Hong Chengchou at this time.

"Yes! Mr. Hong, you were good at using troops when you were in the food industry in Zhejiang. You captured me with only a few dozen people. I admire my national treasures so far. Tell me, how brave the soldiers I trained? Can you turn them upside down in the future when you go back to Jiangnan?"

The land treasure of Taihu Lake robbery was asked about Hong Chengchou at this time.

Hong Chengchou glared at him: "What do you want to do when you kidnap me? What kind of soldiers are Hong? If you capture a few water thieves, you will be considered as a soldier?"

Yang Sichang smiled and said, "Why should you be humble? You and I have known each other when we were both officials in Beijing. In Yang's opinion, Hong Gong is a person with a lot of strategy in his heart and is also well-known among the scholars. He will definitely achieve something in the future."

"Yang Wenwei!"

Hong Chengchou suddenly stood up, looked at Yang Sichang and shouted, "You're enough! Hong has no intention of joking with you now."

Yang Sichang also lowered his face: "Yang didn't joke with you, Mr. Hong, do you think you can go back? To be honest, almost all the gentry who are still in Middle-earth have known that you, Hong Chengchou, have you gone missing on your own initiative and go out to sea with your whole family, intending to form a new army to achieve great achievements!"

"you!"

Hong Chengchou pointed at Yang Sichang and gritted his teeth.

Ye Chengmin, the son of Ye Xianggao, who was also here, hurriedly stood up: "Okay!"

Then, Ye Chengmin bowed to Hong Chengchou and said, "Please calm down! Now that the tyrant is doing something wrong and cruel to the gentry, it is already obvious to all! He is a land area in the clearing of the capital, and he is strictly envious of the tuition. Who knows what harsh policies will be introduced tomorrow! That's fine, the key is that the official cotton cloth and silk are in full swing, and our local cloth is seriously unsold. If this continues, our gentry will not be able to become rich again in the past! Although some gentry in Jiangnan have already raised their troops and were brutally suppressed by them, it does not mean that the gentry in Fujian, Zhejiang, and Guangdong and Guangxi will be willing to be exploited by them!"

"It can be foreseen that this tyrant will not be satisfied with this next time. After seeing the benefits of maritime trade, it will definitely increase tariffs, and even commercial taxes. The pilot tariff collection in Songjiang and the pilot new commercial tax in Tianjin are proof of this! How can we gentry sit and wait for death? Therefore, there are many gentry secretly supporting our family to go out to sea, directly joining pirates, foreigners, Japanese pirates, and recruit soldiers and trained like us."

Yang Sichang took the speech and said.

"Since that's the case, why not unite and form an alliance? Like now, some train in Ryukyu and some train in Japan, and they are in a mess. How can they form a power? Are you not afraid of being defeated by the court?"

Hong Chengchou couldn't help asking.

"No gentry wants to break the family and form an army. They are all seeking pirates and foreign vassals who have their own connections. They don't just pay for their own money to recruit soldiers, so it's very difficult to form an alliance. After all, there are many conflicts between the pirates and foreign vassals!"

Yang Sichang replied.

After hearing this, Hong Chengchou shook his head and thought to himself that these gentry were still afraid of spending too much money.

But Hong Chengchou was not surprised, because if these gentry were willing to spend money, they would not resist because the court took away some of their interests.

"But it is not impossible. Now the pirates and foreigners have known that China's wealth has long been rekindled to plunder Middle Earth, and therefore they gradually have the intention of cooperation. Once an alliance is formed in the future, a general trend will be formed. After all, the soldiers and brave soldiers trained in various places are not only 200,000, but at least 100,000. The seas in Middle Earth are wide, so the court will be unable to resist! They are tired of dealing with it!"
