Sun Chengzong naturally understood his thoughts very well, and he spoke eloquently. Since Emperor Tianqi showed such interest, he naturally spoke in more detail.

"Your Majesty, there is only one short-term goal, which is to stabilize the situation in Liaodong. Firstly, to stabilize the morale of the military, and secondly, to stabilize the morale of the people in Liaodong. Liaodong is the gateway to the capital, with the Liaohe Plain with rich water and grass. If the imperial court wants

To build a cavalry with combat effectiveness, horses are naturally indispensable. Liaodong is an indispensable place for raising horses, and the Ming Dynasty is indispensable." Pointing at the large map, Sun Chengzong looked quite excited about building such a cavalry.

The cavalry was his dream.

Nodding slightly, Emperor Tianqi kept thinking in his mind. Historically, it was when Sun Chengzong was in Liaodong that the situation in Liaodong improved. It was Sun Chengzong in front of him who established a cavalry team in Liaodong.

It is also the famous Guan Ning cavalry in history, the last cavalry worthy of the Ming Dynasty.

"Stabilizing the situation in Liaodong, consolidating border defenses, and building strong cavalry are all military measures. Liaodong is a remote place. With such a foundation in place, administrative reform can be implemented in Liaodong. It is remote and has little resistance.

It will be relatively small, I believe there should be no problem. Even if some disclosures are made, the army will be close at hand and the problem can be solved as soon as possible. I believe that once the situation stabilizes, the court will allocate money, build a horse farm, and resume production in Liaodong.

The problem shouldn't be big. In one or two years, when the situation in Liaodong is stable, money and food will be sufficient, and supplying Liaodong's army shouldn't be a problem." Emperor Tianqi lowered his head and murmured to himself.

Sun Chengzong on the side saw Emperor Tianqi meditating, and stopped talking. He just listened to Emperor Tianqi's words, and his heart suddenly became quite excited. Emperor Tianqi not only agreed with his opinion, but also seemed to be willing to reform the system of Liaodong, so that the original constraints and

The bond is worth its existence. If he gets the full support of Emperor Tianqi, Sun Chengzong is confident that he can transform Liaodong into a different place within three years.

Slowly kneeling on the ground, Sun Chengzong's face was quite serious, and he said loudly: "Your Majesty is a wise master. Please go to Liaodong Minister, and your Majesty's wishes will be fulfilled." Sun Chengzong also gave all his opinions.

Giving it to Emperor Tianqi would save a lot of trouble, and the criticism from those people would not fall on him.

Nodding slowly, Emperor Tianqi walked to Sun Chengzong and helped him up. He said with some embarrassment: "Aiqing, as the chief assistant bachelor of the cabinet, I can't bear to go to Liaodong at this time. Besides, sir, I am

As a teacher, I can’t bear to put my husband in danger.” Emperor Tianqi was acting, as the saying goes, Liu Bei beat the child to win people’s hearts.

"Your Majesty, I am grateful to Your Majesty for not giving up and being able to serve as your Majesty's side. This is your Majesty's dream. Even if you die fighting for Your Majesty, I am willing to do so." Sun Chengzong did not get up, but continued to kneel on the ground and said with a serious expression.

.

"Sir, get up first, let me think about it!" Emperor Tianqi is very confused now. He has many ideas but doesn't know how to implement them. He really wants to be quiet.

"Your Majesty, if I am not allowed to go to Liaodong, I will resign myself!" Although Sun Chengzong stood up, his words were very loud. He would not miss such an opportunity. At this time, he was also hot-headed, and he blurted out such words.

.

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Emperor Tianqi looked helplessly at Sun Chengzong in front of him, and had no choice but to say: "Okay, I'll let Aiqing go!"

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry, I'm rude!" Sun Chengzong also noticed something was wrong and quickly saluted Emperor Tianqi and said in a deep voice.

After waving to Sun Chengzong, Emperor Tianqi's eyes still fell on the map. He turned back to Sun Chengzong behind him and said, "Sir, look here."

Following the place pointed by Emperor Tianqi, Sun Chengzong looked over, and then he was slightly stunned, because he was very familiar with that place. Where are Shanxi and Shaanxi! I don't know what the young emperor thought of.

"Sir, I think it is not enough to have an iron cavalry in Liaodong. This is the land of Qin. From ancient times to the present, the people of Qin have been brave and martial, and it is a good source of soldiers. The most important thing is that it is backed by the vast Yellow River Plain.

, the Hetao Plain is a famous place for horse breeding in ancient times. If a powerful cavalry is established here, the situation will be different. Not only can it guard against the sneak attack of Houjin in Liaodong, but it can also attack at any time, which is strategically important.

Very proactive." Emperor Tianqi's eyes were fixed there at this time, not only to deal with Hou Jin and the Mongols, but also for Shaanxi and Shanxi.

A severe drought a few years later led to the disunity of the people and the outbreak of peasant uprisings. However, the real reason is traceable. The officials in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces were corrupt, and the frontier army had even been forgotten in name only at that time.

.The most important thing is that there was a major smuggler in the Ming Dynasty here, that is, Shanxi merchants.

At this time, due to the interruption of the Silk Road, most people in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces became big landowners. In good times, these people might still be able to be rich and stable and enter the officialdom. But what happened there?

During the severe drought, many businessmen had no choice but to start trading.

Due to geographical restrictions, there is no advantage here in the south of the Yangtze River, and many industries cannot be engaged in. In order to survive, these people have started some illegal businesses. That is smuggling, and the targets of smuggling are the Mongolian tribes and the Houjin. These people may

Unexpectedly, they did not die in the hands of the imperial court, but in the hands of farmers and military households. It must be said to be a kind of irony.

There are certainly ways to avoid such a thing from happening. Of course, Emperor Tianqi never thought about preventing a severe drought, because that was something he couldn't do. The way is to provide disaster relief. To provide disaster relief, several problems need to be solved. The first one is food.

Question. Emperor Tianqi thought about this problem and needed to promote several high-yield crops and work hard to increase food production. Although there is an impression in his memory, Emperor Tianqi does not understand the current agricultural situation. This can only be discussed later.

As for the second question, it is the problem of official administration in Shaanxi. Historically, Emperor Chongzhen mainly focused on recruiting Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, but it was ineffective. Firstly, it was because the suppression was not in place, and secondly, it was because of relief.

The grain distributed by the imperial court was stolen by unscrupulous businessmen and corrupt officials. If these people cannot survive, they will naturally rebel. Coupled with the instigation of those who are determined to rebel, the peasant uprising will naturally be

unstoppable.
