Chapter 730: God Helps Justice
Last Updated:
2024-08-03 14:45:32In the hottest hour of the afternoon, the civil and military ministers were discussing matters in front of the emperor in the Rouyi Hall, but they could not reach a complete consensus because Zhu Gaoxu did not make a clear statement.
As expected, all the nobles shouted for war and killing. They were looking forward to such a war. When they learned that something happened in Annan, some generals were so emotional under their indignant speeches that people wondered if they were secretly happy.
Victory in war can give military generals more say in the court; and military merit is the only reliable way for every military general to establish his own status and reputation.
Dukes and marquises volunteered. He Fu, Liu Sheng and others patted their chests and said that they would not kill the rebels and bring their heads to see them; they probably just wanted to consolidate their current positions through military merit. Zhang Fu also wanted to lead the army because

The imperial court had decided to march south again, but Zhu Gaoxu was not moved by this.The military industry and transportation system he envisioned have not been established at all, and actual profits from overseas have not been seen yet; the haze of various wars has soon appeared before us.The treasury was temporarily short of cash. If the annual cash income of several million strings of cash was used to fight a war, it would probably be used up in two battles, and the official and military salaries would not have to be paid. Therefore, if Zhu Gaoxu wanted to go to war, he could only rely on the existing ruling system, which meant adding a heavy burden to the people and military households in various places.Under a ruling system based on corvée and land tax, foreign wars could not divert domestic conflicts, but would only have a counterproductive effect. The events at the end of the Qin Dynasty and the end of the Sui Dynasty were lessons from the past

The weather was hot, and the doors and windows of the Rouyi Palace were open for ventilation. At this time, a cool breeze blew in, and Zhu Gaoxu suddenly felt a lot more comfortable; and just now he had been talking about things at sea, and he vaguely felt that this cool breeze was like a sea breeze.At a certain moment, somehow, a fragment of his memory was evoked.(A long time ago, when he was wandering along the coast, he met a middle-aged friend who had retired from the army. Once, the two chatted until late at night at the beach. They talked too much, most of which he had forgotten, because they were not important. But some of the words of that friend suddenly popped into his mind: A woman cares about herself the most, followed by her children, and then men.)Zhu Gaoxu suddenly felt that that sentence seemed to make sense.When Zhu Gaoxu was distracted, Chen's voice sounded a little trance-like, "Chen Zhengyuan is still young, and there is no one

Yao Fang had just returned home and didn't even have time to eat a meal, so he told his new wife Qin that he had to hurry out to the palace to have sex.Qin ordered the maid to boil water while she went to the room to find some decent clothes for Yao Fang. Yao Fang had been traveling on the sea for several months, and her skin had become rough and tanned by the sea breeze. She needed to take a bath, change clothes, and get ready before going to see the emperor.She picked out a light and breathable white gauze lining, a straight long gown, and a square flat towel. Then she personally helped Yao Fang bathe, very attentively."Why did the emperor summon my husband?" Qin couldn't help but ask him softly.Yao Fang said, "Before, several thousand of us stayed at the coast of North Korea. There were many civil and military officials in the fleet. They wanted to inquire about the news of Japan, but they all ended up being helpless. Only I thought of a way and

By the end of June, the 34,000 soldiers of the Six Guards had been assembled for the southern expedition. Civil officials Xue Yan, Hou Hai, Pei Youzhen and others had already left Beijing in accordance with the imperial order.Zhang Fu, the Marquis of Xincheng, was formally appointed as the General of the Expedition to the Barbarians in the Fengtian Hall. He was ordered to command the entire military power of the Beijing Camp Southern Expedition Army, the Annan Military Governor's Office, and the garrison troops mobilized from Guangxi and Guangdong, and was given the power to act at will. Chen Xuan was the chief commander of the navy, commanding all fleets participating in the war, but had to obey Zhang Fu's military orders. Liu Sheng, the Marquis of Anyuan, was appointed as the Left Deputy General of the Expedition to the Barbarians, and Yin Desheng, the Marquis of Heyang, was appointed as the Right Deputy General of the Expedition to the Barbarians.When the arm

The rainy season in Annan has not yet passed. It often rains in Dongguan City, making people feel that the roads are rarely dry, and the weather is still very hot. Most of the Ming army's troops near Dongguan are in the city and garrisons to reduce the incidence of diseases. It is said that the rebels have occupied various cities downstream of Dongguan.Liu Ming, the imperial envoy who had been sent to Annan, was feeling very depressed and caught in a dilemma living in Dongguan.The emperor asked him to come and recruit Chen Jikuan's rebels, but he obviously failed. There was no imperial edict or official document in the court ordering him to return home. Liu Ming could only stay here and ask various people for information. The person he had close contact with recently was Nguyen Tri, an Annan man and the governor of Dongguan Prefecture.There was a patio in the backyard of the government office. Rain curtains were flowing from the eaves on all four sides, a

More than 30,000 soldiers of the Beijing Army, led by generals such as Zhang Fu and others, carrying a large number of firearms, first boarded the warships of the Chaohu Navy and then traveled to Guilin Prefecture. The water journey was nearly 3,000 miles and took more than one and a half months. If there had not been no rivers and waterways, the Ming army would have taken even longer to walk.Pei Youzhen, in the seat of the Guangxi Provincial Administration, took the imperial edict and asked local governments to gather a large number of corvée men and official ships, and sent the belongings of the officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp to Nanning Prefecture by land and water. In Nanning Prefecture, they received tens of thousands of garrison troops recruited from Guangxi and Guangdong, and continued to march towards Annan.It was already mid-September when the army passed through the original border, Zhenyi Pass (You|Yi Pass).According to the seasonal d

The post road from Lang Son to Beijiang Prefecture is less than 200 miles. Zhang Fu's troops marched without any hindrance. The weather was good these days, with only one rain on the road, and the army maintained a marching speed of more than 40 miles a day. It was expected that within four to five days, the government troops would be at the gates of Beijiang.Yin Desheng, the Right Deputy General of the Zhengyi Campaign and Marquis of Heyang, led the troops under Zhang Fu this time; but he really hated Zhang Fu as the commander-in-chief and his old subordinate Huang Zhong.Back then, Yin Desheng was still a young man who admired the heroes of the past and present. He could get excited when he sang "Leaning on the Railing with Furious Hair" and was always ready to serve the court and make achievements. However, the first time Yin Desheng went to the battlefield, he was poured a bucket of cold water, which made him gradually face the reality.He first followe

On the green plain, there was a bustling crowd, flags were flying, people were shouting and cursing like in a busy market, and arrows were whistling in the air everywhere.In some places, the Annan rebels even organized volleys of bows and arrows, forming dense long-range arrow strikes. However, the Ming army usually had elite soldiers with more armor in the front, and the front row was mainly composed of spear and shield heavy infantry; to prevent the front line of the square from retreating too quickly, thus affecting the stability of the entire army. Therefore, if the rebels wanted to make progress only with bows and arrows, it would only be a waste of physical strength.Amid the noise, the rebel infantrymen holding spears and magic guns came to the front one after another and began to approach the Ming army. (The magic gun is a matchlock gun with a cast barrel, sealed by a wooden horse, and firing arrows.)The rebels in the south let out fierce shouts, b

The sky gradually darkened and the lights came on. Gao Xu held Miao Jin's hand and followed the crowd into the concert hall.People were all dressed up, especially women, who were all dressed up. Some wore traditional clothes such as ruqun or aoqun, while others were dressed in modern fashion. Each figure seemed to be wandering between the classical and the modern.Among them there are many foreigners, probably all of whom came to Taicang to attend international conferences.In terms of fun, people might prefer to watch a movie rather than enjoy such pure music. However, there were still many listeners tonight, and the auditorium gradually filled up.Perhaps some of them value the rarity of concerts and do not attend them often, while others simply value their style.Gao Xu's main happiness comes from Miao Jin's company. Imagine if he came alone or with someone unrelated, his feelings would be much worse. He is willing to be with Miao Jin and exp

There were long commercials playing on TV, but no one changed the channel.Miao Jin was doing chores and preparing ingredients for lunch. Gao Xu began to check his various instruments, which were all measuring tools he had collected a while ago.There is a ray detector, which, according to the manual, can detect radiation, including ultraviolet light, laser and other electromagnetic waves. There is a torsion balance experimental device, which can measure the gravitational constant. And an air measuring instrument.There were also some uncommon small devices. In short, except for the large instruments that were difficult to carry, he tried his best to buy all the instruments that could test general constants.Miao Jin would occasionally look over here curiously, but before she asked, she might have guessed what Gao Xu was going to do.Gao Xu would tell her clearly as long as she asked. Because when he was going to look for the cave in Huangshan, h

Gao Xu usually doesn't like watching TV. But today, when Miao Jin was watching TV in the living room, he was gradually attracted by the TV program, so he stopped what he was doing and sat next to Miao Jin.There was a studio on the TV screen, with two hosts, a man and a woman, talking about the animation "Zootopia" like a crosstalk. It was neither news nor entertainment, but a show that mocked reality.Miao Jin saw Gao Xu sitting over and said, "This TV station should be more inclined to the left-wing viewpoint."Gao Xu asked, "Why haven't I heard of the distinction between left and right wings?"Miao Jin said, "It is originally an imported product. That is how foreigners describe Ming Dynasty politics. There is no clear distinction between left and right in China. So we generally don't use such words. It is normal that we don't hear them normally."She glanced at Gao Xu and continued, "This classification first appeared in the parliament during

Gao Xu's drama project has less than half the investment of the animation project, with a total investment of about 40 million yen for 15 episodes; the profit expectations are also completely incomparable to those of animated films. As Wang Siqi and most people believe, the fastest way to make money is still the movie box office.But Gao Xu has invested more energy in costume dramas.The crew built a filming site in the Western Regions. From 509 to the first half of 510, a production period of less than a year, Gao Xu flew twice to personally observe the filming site. His subordinate Sun Jing also stayed in the Western Regions for a long time, passing various information back to Taicang.A large media company in Taicang has signed an exclusive premiere agreement with Dream Incubation Studio.The terms are a bit complicated, but the key is to adopt a cooperation model with floating copyright fees.

The glass window on the outer wall is located in the east direction, so the sunlight cannot enter the studio in the afternoon. Therefore, Gao Xu often has a slight illusion that it seems to be later than the actual time.At this moment, the phone in his coat pocket rang. Gao Xu's phone rarely received calls because he had set the Do Not Disturb function, so no calls could be received from numbers that were not saved. He took it out and saw that it was a person who he did not contact often but had saved the number a long time ago, Sun Jing.Gao Xu stood up from his desk, walked to the corner by the glass window, glanced at Wang Cheng not far away, and answered the phone.Sun Jing's voice asked, "Are you still busy with work?"Gao Xu said, "Yes, I am working on two projects at the same time, so I am a little busy. How is Mr. Sun doing recently?"Sun Jing, "Very boring. I don't have to go to work, but I've been idle for so long that I feel like I'm

This was the second time Gao Xu and Xiao Yu had a meal together. Last time they were at the company cafeteria, and today they were at a roadside fast food restaurant.After finishing work at the agency, Gao Xu drove off the main road and found a parking space. Then he randomly found a restaurant where he could eat and walked in with Xiao Yu.It was very lively inside, with all kinds of customers, including well-dressed office workers and some homely citizens, men, women, young and old, making a big noise in the room, mixed with the loud shouts of the shop assistants passing on information. Although the air conditioner was on, the shop was open and there were many people, so it was still very hot inside.There were several dishes to choose from, all of which were simple and convenient. Gao Xu and Xiao Yu gave up on the braised pork intestines with radish, and roast duck was too greasy, so they chose roast chicken.The roasted chicken skin was cut into p

After many twists and turns, Gao Xu finally contacted the director named Ma Xuan.Ma Xuan has an account on the Internet where he posts some career news. Gao Xu's assistant Yu Ni left messages and sent messages, but it took several days for her to get a response. Gao Xu came to the hall and looked through the information records on Yu Ni's computer."He doesn't seem very proactive." Yu Ni said.Gao Xu said , "You claim to be the assistant of the investor of "Dream Seekers", but he may not believe you. If our studio also has such a certified account, it may save some trouble."At this time, Shidai Heng walked by and greeted him, "Mr. Liu."Gao Xu nodded and said, "We are trying to contact Ma Xuan, the director you recommended."Dai Heng came over and said, "He should have received a lot of similar messages. And there is indeed some false information on the Internet. For the purpose of advertising, people may lie about their identities, which

The people who work here, including Dai Heng who has only been here a few days, seem to have gotten used to the environment.The studio was in good condition. The morning sun shone in through the French windows, and the room was clean and tidy. In addition to the solid wood desk and bookshelf, and a full range of domestic electrical appliances (Made in China products are more expensive), there were also comfortable leather chairs.Gao Xu was in Xiao Deng's office at the moment, sitting on one of the leather chairs, holding a tablet and reading the text he had just copied from Xiao Deng's computer. Of course, he couldn't help but listen to the sound of her keyboard at the same time.He put down the tablet, picked up the cup next to him, and found it was empty. So he stood up and walked to the water dispenser, filled up half a cup of hot water, then took a tea bag and put it in the cup to soak for more than ten seconds, then took it out and put it next to him.

The next screenwriter who came to the studio for an interview was named Dai Heng, who should be a relatively unknown person.Gao Xu looked out from the glass wall and when he saw Dai Heng, he immediately guessed that this person was probably not married yet. Dai Heng was wearing a brand new suit, a white shirt with a small cross collar, and a pair of casual leather shoes that didn't match. The most unpleasant thing about Dai Heng was his long hair, but unlike the image of Ekin Cheng, Gao Xu felt at first glance that Dai Heng was not suitable for that hairstyle. Some hairstyles look good, but they are picky about the face.But these are not problems. Now that the people have arrived, Gao Xu needs to get to know them a little bit.Gao Xu pressed the phone on the desk, "Xiao Yu, ask him to come to the office to meet.""Okay." Xiao Yu said into the phone outside, his voice coming from the desk inside.Dai Heng came in from the door with a bag on his
