Chapter Nine Hundred and Ninety Six: Accepted

[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember in a second, never lose it!

Since I am determined to go to Gold Island.

Then in the future, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and family members will be continuously sent out.

No one can guarantee that no one will take advantage of the high mountains and the emperor to go his own way.

Therefore, the commander-in-chief must not only have sufficient prestige, but also have sufficient power to ensure that the soldiers can obey.

The reason for raising the title is actually the most realistic consideration.

Most of the generals in this Western Expedition are hereditary commanders, thousands of households...

Soldiers went on expeditions not only for a bite of food, but also for the opportunity to make meritorious deeds, military officers, needless to say.

If even the coach is just Marquis of Pingxi, although prestige can convince people, I am afraid that many people will think how they can surpass Fang Jinglong, Marquis of Pingxi who is the coach. Faded.

The essence of conferring on Fang Jinglong is to raise the level of the Golden Continent. Just like the guardian of Nanjing, he will never let a marquis go. Even if Wei Guogong is inferior, he must be the one who suppresses Nanjing. Only in this way can he let the next one go. Soldiers see hope.

"Your Majesty, this... the minister has not made an inch of merit..." Fang Jinglong couldn't help but said.

"Pingjiaozhi, isn't it a great achievement?" Emperor Hongzhi seemed to have thought of rhetoric long ago, and said: "Not to mention Lingzi Fang Jifan, who has made outstanding achievements over the years. These achievements, whether large or small, I didn't seal them up because he was still young. Reckless favors and honors have only fueled his arrogance. He is my son-in-law, and I only have one daughter. I and Qing's family are as good as Qin and Jin. I don't have generous gifts, and I have my own considerations. But Qing and Ji Fan As a father and son, this edict of grace should have been issued a long time ago, but I have always wanted to wait. This wait has been three years since I started thinking about it. Now... it is time. I remember, The ancestral home of the Qing family is in the Shandong area."

Fang Jinglong said respectfully, "Yes."

Emperor Hongzhi said: "This old land of Qilu is called the Duke of Qi. I have discussed this matter with the cabinet. All the scholars in the cabinet are happy to see this."

Hearing that His Majesty has reached a consensus with the cabinet, Fang Jinglong finally breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, he has been worried that His Majesty will go his own way, which will cause opposition within the court. Maybe His Majesty can suppress the opposing opinions for a while, but after a long time, he is afraid that it will breed There are a lot of troubles, if there are any disputes after I go to sea, it will be beyond my reach.

Now this question need not trouble him.

It's just... Qi Guogong...

Fang Jinglong seemed a little embarrassed.

This Qi is a big country with a great reputation. In history, Qi even called itself the Eastern Emperor... Fang Jinglong felt a little inappropriate with this title.

It is necessary to know that the Dukes of the Ming Dynasty included Wei Guogong, Zheng Guogong, Wei Guogong, Song Guogong, Cao Guogong, etc. Most of them were named after the country titles in the Spring and Autumn Period. After Jingnan, there were Cheng Guogong, Ding Guogong, and British Duke. However, it can be said that what Fang Jinglong is most afraid of is that the big tree attracts the wind.

Without much hesitation, he hurriedly said: "I dare not admit the title of Qi State, so why not use the title of Lu State, and beseech Your Majesty's permission."

Emperor Hongzhi was taken aback, never expecting Fang Jinglong to be so cautious to pick out his words.

Taking a deep look at Fang Jinglong, he couldn't help saying: "Qing is as careful as a hair, and is cautious, why did Fang Jifan give birth to a child?"

This is so true...

If it wasn't for the Son of Heaven, it was an ordinary person who said that, a slap in the face would have been slapped in the face long ago.

What is this, saying that my son is not like myself?

Fang Jinglong said calmly: "The subject has a brain disease, and his temperament will change drastically. Please learn from your Majesty."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded and nodded: "Confucius was born in Lu, and the Spring and Autumn Annals were made by the sages, and the chaotic officials and thieves were afraid. This country of etiquette is also a country of auxiliary transportation. Please use Lu as the name, then, according to what you said Yes, Duke Chilu."

Hearing that Emperor Hongzhi finally agreed, Fang Jinglong was overjoyed and said, "I obey the order."

After the matter was preliminarily settled, Emperor Hongzhi was in a good mood. He sat down and said with emotion: "Going abroad this time is very dangerous. What are your plans?"

Fang Jinglong was also prepared for this question, and said: "Since the first emperor Yingzong, the discipline of the guards has begun to collapse and decay. Fang's family has been in military positions for several generations. Don't you know that? Most of the military fields occupied by Emperor Taizu Gao are now occupied by military officials, and the military households have no food to eat, so they can only rely on the military officers, making them less than ordinary private slaves. If things go on like this, the military households will be dressed in rags and look like beggars. Sooner or later It is the source of evil."

Fang Jing paused, and then said: "This time I went to sea, in my opinion, most of the military households are still enthusiastic. They have no way out. As for the military officers, they each have their own ideas. This is what I think. If the military officer wants to If you want to stay in China, you don't have to force it. I will take the first group of people to go to sea. If you are lucky enough to arrive safely at the Golden Island, you will find a fertile land and start farming. First, make sure that everyone can have enough food. The titles of the guards can exist, but their organization needs to be broken up again. All military positions and military households, and the land they reclaimed, are all recognized. The old method of military fields is really useless. The Golden Continent is everywhere. The barren land, only the land reclaimed by the military households, promises to be privately owned, and the soldiers are willing to work hard. When they have a field, they will distribute cattle and horses to keep them. In normal times, they are asked to cultivate and farm. At that time, in addition to the standing army and horses, young and strong men were recruited to practice. When they had fields, they took root in Huangjinzhou, allowing them to reproduce on this land with peace of mind. The cultivated land shall not be plundered by others, but we shall work together and work loyally and courageously.”

Fang Jinglong thought for a while, and continued: "I have checked the situation of the Golden Continent, and I probably know that the threat of Franji is not the main point now. Although they are also trying their best to develop the Golden Continent, at least for now, it is not a worry. , at the moment, the most important thing is..."

Fang Jinglong talked about his views on Huang Jinzhou.

Emperor Hongzhi listened carefully and nodded repeatedly.

In fact, along the way, Fang Jinglong had already sent Xu Jing's information about Huangjinzhou to him on a fast horse, and he had been carefully checking and understanding it all the way.

Now, in Fang Jinglong's mind, the Golden Continent actually has a preliminary impression.

He has the experience of guarding Guizhou and Jiaozhi. At the same time, the sexual army has more experience in fighting. Although the situation in Huangjinzhou is different from Guizhou and Jiaozhi, the essential problems are the same.

Coupled with the correspondence between him and Fang Jifan these days, he was more or less influenced by Fang Jifan.

To develop the Golden Continent is nothing more than scholars, farmers, businessmen, but these four are not a relationship between superiors and inferiors, but need to go hand in hand.

Reclamation first, based on agriculture, and then establish a commercial port, contact Daming's fleet, trade the products of the Golden Continent with those sent from Daming all the way, and use this as a center to obtain enough supplies.

Then there is the establishment of low-level workshops, trying to be self-sufficient in ironware and some living utensils.

After that, it is to start school, not to study, how to unite people's hearts, how to let hundreds of thousands of families, and their future descendants, generate centripetal force?

What is Huaxia? The so-called Huaxia is more of a cultural community, with the same species, same language, same book, and same track!

"At Xishan Academy, quite a few students have signed up enthusiastically and are willing to join the army. Among them are 73 engineering students, 37 medical students, 327 captains and wrestlers from the Tuntian Institute, and 327 students. There are arithmetic, literature, astronomy and geography... Among them, there are the most captains and wrestlers in the Tuntian Institute..."

Speaking of this, Fang Jinglong was very satisfied, and couldn't help but smile on his lips.

What is most needed now is land reclamation, and the captains and warriors of these garrison farms are indeed the most precious wealth.

Of course, there is also a reason why the captains and wrestlers of the Tuntian Institute enthusiastically signed up.

They cultivate various varieties and research crops here, but everyone knows that the Golden Continent is the birthplace of many crops from overseas.

In the eyes of the captains and warriors of the Tuntian Institute, there...is a golden land, which bred countless magical species that amazed them. Therefore, in addition to the feelings of family and country, more people hope to see it. Meet the fabled Golden Isle.

"Besides, there are other scholars, students, and various scholars, six hundred and seventy-three people. This is the current number. I don't know if it will increase. I even heard that there are many Young Scholars and Juren have all signed up, but they hope that their identities will not be announced...Your Majesty...you see..."

"Yes!" Emperor Hongzhi was overjoyed: "This is what scholars should do. Huangjinzhou needs these talents. It seems that Fang Jifan's campaign to conquer the West has achieved remarkable results. Since they have the heart to join the army, I will not stop them. "

Fang Jinglong settled down, and said: "Besides, there are various craftsmen who also need to be recruited. My subject Fang Jifan recruited more than 1,300 people in Xishan and promised a lot of money. With these people, I will After arriving at Golden Continent, a library and academy will be built, yes, Xishan Academy will borrow these people to set up a branch..."

Fang Jinglong said: "This Golden Continent is thousands of miles away from Daming. Ordinary people have almost cut off the hope of crossing the ocean. But in the future, I plan to let scholars try their best to communicate. This Xishan Academy and the Golden Continent Academy, every Every few years, we send scholars to each other to visit each other, not only that, every time a ship goes to sea to search for periodicals, all the accumulated papers need to be sent to the Golden Continent."

Although Fang Jinglong is a general, he attaches great importance to the academy. This is the foundation of his son's career. In Guiyang, although he has no contact with those medical students and engineering students, he doesn't know how good or bad they are. Tuntian Xiaowei and Lishi who worked in agriculture. But these people have made great contributions in Guizhou and Jiaozhi. In his heart, those hundreds of captains and wrestlers can be worth 100,000 troops.
