Chapter 195 The war is about to begin

Jinke released the results, Qionglin had a feast, and then the official appointment.

According to past practice, new scholars must first study in various ministries and become familiar with the operating mechanism of the imperial court, and then go to the Hanlin Academy to gain qualifications for a few years. When their qualifications are mature, they will be sent to various places to take charge of an official government.

Zhu Houzhao was eager to hire people, so he could avoid going through the qualifications test, but it was still indispensable to study in various ministries and become familiar with the operating mechanism of the court.

The top three in the first class, Sun Yuanying, Zhao Dezhu, and Yang Shen, were awarded the title of Shujishi of the Hanlin Academy.

After a period of study and further study, the 1,500 Jinshi admitted had a certain degree of understanding of the imperial court's operating mechanism, and the next step was to assign official positions.

Sun Yuanying joined the Military Ministry, and Zhu Houzhao intended to train him to become the head of the Military Law Department of the Military Ministry.

When Zhao Dezhu joined the Ministry of Industry, Zhu Houzhao had only one position for him. He was good at farming, so he would help Ming Dynasty develop a high-yielding crop.

Yang Shen retained the Hanlin Academy, and added the title of editor of the Hanlin Academy to his title of Shujishi.

Tang Yin joins the military and is assigned to work under Hu Dakui. Zhu Houzhao has only one request for him. As long as he can't practice to death, he will practice to death. If the prodigal Tang Yin can't do it, then he can get a heroic Overlord Spear Tang Bohu.

Zhu Biqiao, who was sent to the Gongyuan examination room by King Su, dared to sleep soundly in the examination room, and his grades were a mess, was also given to Hu Dakui to practice hard. Didn't he like to dance with guns and sticks, and Zhu Houzhao made it possible for him.

The time has come for the British Duke Zhang Mao to be excited, expand his territory, shock foreign countries, and revive the military power of the Ming Dynasty. The time has come for the Zhang family to once again dominate the battlefield.

As Liang Chu said, the places they hope to serve are the rich and prosperous places in the south of the Yangtze River and the Central Plains, such as Liaodong, Mobei, Yunnan, Sichuan and other places, which are not within the scope of their consideration at all.

Fighting costs money. When a cannon is fired, there are thousands of taels of gold. To attack a remote place like Annan, the transportation of grain and grass is a big problem.

They arrived late. If the imperial examination had been held earlier, they might have been able to become officials in Jiangnan. Unfortunately, it was too late to say anything now. The officials in Jiangnan had already been occupied by old Hanlin officials who had been in the Hanlin Academy for many years.

It's just that the officials who are sent out are at most a county magistrate. It is impossible for them to become a highly influential official like a prefect or governor.

Wang Yangming said sincerely that he hoped Zhu Houzhao would be more sensible.

"No time!"

If the reforms had been completed, Zhu Houzhao would not stop anyone he wanted to fight. But now, in this situation, it is really not appropriate to start a war.

Resources, he now needs a lot of resources. Since the resources that Ming has cannot satisfy him, he can only plunder them from outside.

All the ministers could see it clearly, so Zhu Houzhao didn't know, but ten years was too tight, and he had no extra time to proceed slowly.

They have a clear view of the situation. Although reforms are in full swing in various places, there are still many lawless people hiding in the dark and watching. Once something unexpected happens, those people will fight back crazily and cause unimaginable disaster to the Ming Dynasty.

.

"Your Majesty, think twice."

"The military fully supports all of His Majesty's decisions."

The attack on Mobei and the extermination of Fusang were all the work of Jiu Bian. The Zhang family did not even touch one side. This time, no matter what, they must show off the style of the British Zhang family.

"What Mr. Wang said is absolutely true. The Ming Dynasty is now at a critical moment of destruction and re-establishment, and it is really not appropriate to start a war."

"No time for what?"

Zhu Houzhao ordered his people to open the map that had been drawn in advance and said loudly: "You must all know the purpose of calling you here. Please share your opinions!"

Moreover, most of the places where they are transferred are in Liaodong, Mobei, Yunnan, Sichuan and other places, which have nothing to do with the word "rich". In the past, it was almost a daydream for them to make money. The only option was to work hard and strive to be transferred back to the capital as soon as possible.

.

He was just an illegitimate son who was not recognized by the Fengcheng Hou Mansion. It was Zhu Houzhao who gave him the opportunity to rise, allowing him to successfully counterattack and become the new Fengcheng Hou. He should repay such kindness with his life.

Nowadays, it is at an important juncture of political reform. Money is needed everywhere. If a war breaks out, it is still unknown whether the Ming Dynasty's finances can be maintained.

But the imperial court arranged it like this, and they had to obey. As soon as they entered the officialdom, they asked for this and that. They didn't want to do it anymore, right? The imperial court was not their father and mother, and they would spoil them in everything.

The first assistant of the cabinet is Wang Yangming, the second assistant of the cabinet is Yang Yiqing, the official secretary is Liang Chu, the household secretary is Wang Zuo,

Wang Qiong, the Minister of War, and Liu Yu, the Minister of Rites,

Hong Zhong, Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Li Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Industry,

Fei Hong, the bachelor of Wuyingdian, Wang Hao, the bachelor of Wenyuange, Mao Ji, the bachelor of Dongge, Jiang Mian, the bachelor of Jinshendian, Liu Zhong, the Guanglu doctor. The head of the military department, the British Duke Zhang Mao, the commander-in-chief of the fifth military camp, and the three

Hu Dakui, the commander of the Qianying Battalion, Li Cheng, the commander of the Shenji Battalion, Fengcheng Hou, Shi Wenyi and Zhang Cai of the Jinyiwei command room

All the ministers who stood at the top of power in the Zhengde Dynasty were present.

Many new scholars who were sent abroad were extremely dissatisfied with the place where they were about to go, and they could be said to be full of complaints and grievances.

The civil servants headed by Wang Yangming looked at each other in confusion. Zhu Houzhao's ambition to take back the territory that the Ming Dynasty had given up was commendable. However, they were not a military department eager to make achievements, and they had many more issues to consider.

"Brother Shen, where are you sent to serve?"

A small number of Jinshi who did not get any arrangements and could only stay in the Hanlin Academy and dawdle around felt extremely lucky. Staying in the Hanlin Academy and dawdling around was better than being sent to Liaodong and Mobei to suffer hardships in places like Liaodong and Mobei where they had nothing to offer.

Just after arranging the new scholars, Zhu Houzhao immediately convened the ministers to discuss matters, and it was inevitable to attack Annan, Jiaozhi and other countries.

He was a rough man and an extremely pure martial artist. He would fight whoever Zhu Houzhao asked him to fight without any worries.

Yang Yiqing, Liang Chu, Wang Zuo, Wang Qiong, Hong Zhong, Li Yu, Fei Hong, Wang Hao, Mao Ji and others also started to persuade him.

"It is understandable that Your Majesty wants to take back the territory that the Ming Dynasty once gave up, but at this critical moment of reform and uprightness, rashly starting a war will not be good for the country!"

However, they were happy too early!

Hu Dakui, who was most loyal to Zhu Houzhao, was the first to express his stance.

"Wherever your Majesty's blade points, the general will hit you!"

Lan Tian, ​​Liu Jingyu, Feng Xun, Lan Tian, ​​Zhu Yunming and other new scholars all had their own arrangements. They were either poached by various ministries of the imperial court for key training, or they were released to serve as officials.

Li Cheng, the commander of Shenji Battalion, remained silent and just looked at Zhu Houzhao quietly. He would do whatever Zhu Houzhao said.

"I was sent to Deqing, Liaodong. Brother Wang of that place also knows about it. It's hard for me!"

After all, Liaodong is bitterly cold and Mobei is remote. Yunnan and Sichuan have just suppressed the chieftain forces, and they are still in chaos. If they go there, they may lose their lives.

"Brother Li, this is quite good. Unlike me, who was sent directly to Mobei. My Ming Dynasty and the grassland tribe have had grudges for many years. If I go, I don't know if I can come back alive."

The ministers were confused and couldn't understand what the emperor meant by his words, and they kept mumbling.

"Things are like this. Such and such"

The civil and military ministers present here did not say that they were absolutely loyal to him, but they could also trust him. Zhu Houzhao no longer kept it secret, and immediately told them about the space of the Qiankun Pearl and the great fusion of time and space ten years later.

Anyway, we have to talk about this sooner or later. If we tell them earlier, we can prepare earlier.
Chapter completed!
