Chapter 142

"real?"

When Huang Taiji heard this, he stood up and breathed quickly: "There are really 300,000 shi of food?"

Fan Wencheng presented the note in his hand with both hands: "Fan Yongdou, the head of the Fan family, used the Haidong Qingfei letter to report the letter. There will be no mistake!"

Huang Taiji grabbed the note and read it quickly, then turned back and read it carefully several times, with an extremely excited expression.

Huang Taiji let out a long sigh of relief and laughed loudly: "Okay, okay, okay! That's great! Mrs. Fan has done a great service for me, Daijin!"

Fan Wencheng was also very happy. With these 300,000 shi of food, Daikin could survive this most difficult time.

During this period, more and more people complained about the Seven Hatreds' revolt, especially the issue of 40 million taels of silver for disaster relief, which simply put Huang Taiji on the fire.

The truth about the Di Chao Incident in the 17th year of Wanli is actually quite simple. This is just a misunderstanding. In fact, the court's disaster relief incident in the 17th year of Wanli is true, and it is indeed the case. The amount of money for the disaster relief was 400,000 taels, not 40,000 taels.

Ten million taels, because in the Ming Dynasty, the words "qian" and "shi" were written as "qian" or "shi" in accounting, and in the record form, they were written as "qian" or "ten".

Since the Di notes were transcribed manually, there was a one-word error. Searching for the Di notes from the same year of Wanli, you can find the same incident, but the problem is, it says 400,000 taels of silver.

There is a huge difference between 400,000 taels of silver and 40 million taels of silver. There are millions of people affected by the disaster. With 400,000 taels of silver for disaster relief, the average victim has less than three taels of silver on his head. This is different from the 40 million taels of silver for disaster relief.

An average of thirty taels of silver per person is a completely different concept.

But the problem is, they don't believe it at all when evidence and reasonable explanations are given.

Because language is pale, every household lost its cattle and sheep, and suffered heavy losses. The grain purchased only gave the people of the Jin Kingdom a mouthful of food, but could not fill the big hole caused by the snow disaster.

Huang Taiji would be lying if he said he was not worried about rumors shaking the foundation of the Kingdom of Jin. People are generally ignorant. Once he worried that ordinary people would be deceived by rumors and take risks, he could only send troops to suppress the rebellion, but Dajin

The country's population is not large, and if one more person dies, the strength of the Kingdom of Jin will also be weakened.

Ordinary people are illiterate, and those who can get the Wanli Di banknote must be a powerful person in the Kingdom of Jin. Is this someone who is dissatisfied with him?

Who is this person?

The three Dorgon brothers?

Amin?

Mang Gurtai?

or it could be……

Regardless of whether there is any evidence or not, Huang Taiji does not dare to be careless in this regard.

Huang Taiji finally saw the essence of the problem. These 300,000 shi of grain could not be bought with just money. They also needed to build five fortresses in the twin cities and near Meituo Lake.

Cheng Shijie actually guessed wrong. Ordinary Jian slaves did not have territorial awareness. As for Shuangchengwei, the hometown of Jian Zhen Jurchen, many people had already left there. It was too bitter and cold there.

But the problem is that no matter how bad Huang Taiji is, he is still the king of a country. The position he sits in is destined to have a different structure, a different vision, and a different way of thinking about problems.

Cheng Shijie could see the importance of the strategic position of the Shuangcheng Guards, and Huang Taiji could also see it.

Huang Taiji looked at the note and sneered: "This Cheng Shijie has some bad intentions, he is quite capable of finding opportunities to find opportunities!

Fan Wencheng laughed and said: "The people Cheng Shijie relies on are nothing but the navy of Ning Haijun. He thinks that our Kingdom of Jin is not good at water warfare. With the navy, we can defend Meituo Lake. In fact, he is short-sighted!"

"Short-sighted? These words..."

Huang Taiji quickly reacted. Meituo Lake is different from Jinzhou and Lushun Port. It is a natural ice-free port. It does not mean that the temperature in Lushun cannot reach below zero, but because the salinity of the seawater will affect the freezing of the seawater.

The higher the salinity, the lower the temperature required for freezing.

But Meituo Lake is different. This is a freshwater lake. The temperature drops rapidly in September every year. It usually freezes in early or late October. Starting from November, horse racing can be done on the ice of Meituo Lake. That is,

It is said that from November to the end of February of the following year, the entire ice surface is frozen for more than three months and nearly four months.

Just like Dai Jin took advantage of the ice to cross the Yalu River and kill North Korea.

The ice in winter is a natural boost for Jiannu.

Battle of Juehua Island,

In the Battle of Pi Island, as long as it involved an attack on the sea, Jiannu could only rely on the thousands of miles of winter ice to attack along the ice.

Huang Taiji nodded and said: "What Grand Scholar Fan said is absolutely true! Through this transaction, Ben Khan has clearly seen his true qualities. He is nothing more than a warrior, brave and intrepid, greedy for money and lust. Such a character is certainly worth it.

It’s a headache, but it won’t be a big deal after all!”

Fan Wencheng said: "They are just people like Ying Bu and Peng Yue!"

Huang Taiji laughed loudly: "That's right, that's right! Let the Fan family continue to trade with Cheng Shijie, and the King of Khan agrees to give the land of Shuangcheng Guards to Cheng Shijie for farming!"

"The more fields he farms, the better the income will be, and the more beneficial it will be to King Khan!"

Fan Wencheng laughed and said: "The pigs need to be fattened before they are killed!"

"Let the Fan family try to bribe him."

Fan Wencheng said with a smile: "King Khan, don't worry, it is not difficult to deal with such a guy who is inexperienced and greedy for money and lust. With the strength of the Fan family, it is too easy to win him over!"

Huang Taiji laughed heartily.

It turns out that he underestimated Cheng Shijie.

This is a very terrible mistake. He underestimates Cheng Shijie and no one can underestimate him.

…

"There are three hundred and sixty-year-old feather insects, and the most handsome one is Haidongqing. The nature is golden and the spirit is fire, and the strange material reflects the Yaoguang star." The author of this poem is the Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, and the content is to praise a majestic hero.

Haired with sea green.

Haidongqing has a rare flight speed among birds. It can fly at a speed of more than 140 kilometers per hour at high altitude, dive at a speed of more than 200 kilometers per hour, and fly at a height of more than 5,000 meters. Most birds and some small mammals are...

included in its attack range.

Using Hai Dongqing to communicate is a very effective method. Even if the whole journey from Shenyang to Jinzhou is more than 800 miles, for Hai Dongqing, it only takes two to three hours.

Fan Yongdou had two slave-building eagle slaves beside him, who were responsible for training and feeding the pair of Haidongqing. It took only one night after his news came out. At dawn, Fan Yongdou received a secret order from Huang Taiji. In principle,

That is to say, they agreed to Ning Haijun's request and appointed Bao Chengxian as the plenipotentiary representative to negotiate with Ning Haijun.

Huang Taiji agreed to give the land of Shuangchengwei and more than 200 miles from the south of Meituo Lake to the seaside, a total of 320 miles from east to west, approximately 16,000 square kilometers, to Ning Haijun for farming.

However, Huang Taiji made another request, that is, Ning Haijun must sell them 400,000 shi of grain instead of 300,000 shi. In addition, for the grain farmed in the Shuangchengwei area, Jiannu will pay the price of ten shi of silver.

Acquired from Ning Haijun.

When Xie Jinglin reported the latest negotiation results to Cheng Shijie, Cheng Shijie did not hesitate, taking advantage of the fact that Admiral Ning was around him.

Cheng Shijie held a small meeting and got straight to the point: "Now I have to make temporary adjustments and need a task to establish a military control committee. The level... is temporarily set at the executive committee level."

The Executive Committee, in Liaodong's system, is lower than the Management Committee, but it is a subordinate level of the Management Committee. In fact, it is equivalent to the level of a health institute. Jinzhou, Haizhou, Fuzhou, and Gaizhou are all executive committee members.

Although Zhenhai and Lushun are also at the executive committee level, this level is a deputy presiding over the work, which is equivalent to a lower level.

But it is higher than the grassroots organization working committee of the management committee.

To set the tone of the working committee, there are actually not many choices within Ning Haijun. Apart from Shen Mingyu, Zhang Yu, Li Zhixiang, Zhao Wencai, etc., only generals of Liu Qingsong and Zhou Ning's level are qualified.

.

At this moment, Chen Dayong raised his hand and said, "How about I do it?"

Chen Dayong's rank is supposed to be on the same level as Shen Mingyu, Chang Yu, and Li Zhixiang, and one level higher than Li Fang, Liu Qingsong, and others. Being the director of the Military Control Commission is considered a humiliation.

In fact, Chen Dayong had no choice. Since his official script was in the naval system, he usually had no combat missions. Just like a worker in a factory, he completed his job and did not need to live in a military camp. He could return home.

But the question is, how dare Chen Dayong go home?

His old father gave him fifty-three concubines. The Chen family is now prosperous and owns more than 860 acres of land. Every concubine wants to give him a son and a half. It is good to have children.

Get close.

In this case, as long as he goes home, the concubines will swarm him, eager to squeeze him dry. Naturally, it feels very good at first, but as time goes by, his waist can no longer bear it.

My steps are weak and my limbs are weak...

In the past, Chen Dayong was a pacesetter in training, and with his extraordinary endurance, he often ranked among the top five in the armed cross-country competition of the Quaning Navy. But now, let alone the top five, it is good to be able to keep up with the team.

Now, he is simply afraid to go home.

But what if you don’t go home?

Whenever he was off duty, his adopted sons and daughters would wait outside the military camp, waiting for his father to come home?

In this case, Chen Dayong decided to carry out the mission. He would rather face the vicious slaves than face the fifty-three concubines at home.

Cheng Shijie listened to Chen Dayong's registration and nodded: "This military control meeting is very suitable for you to do!"

Speaking of this, Cheng Shijie pointed to the huge map. This was a high-definition map that Cheng Shijie enlarged and printed from later generations. He specially hired a Russian translator and spent more than three thousand yuan to draw it again. The excuse was that it was a film and television prop.

"This is Meituo Lake. Along the lake, I plan to build five cities, namely East Lake City, West Lake City, North Lake City, Shuangcheng and Little East City."

Cheng Shijie pointed to the Meituo Lake with an area of ​​4,600 square kilometers and said: "To defend these five cities, we need the cooperation of the navy. I plan to have the navy mobilize forty 400-ton gunboats."

, plus fifteen transport ships, to form the Meituo Lake Naval Force. As for that, transfer Chen Shishi there, and Chen Shishi will be transferred to the deputy director of the Shuangcheng Military Management Committee!"

"What about the soldiers?"
