Chapter 411 Even if the one who bought the coupons is a bastard, he still has to redeem what he deserves!
Zheng Cai's situation is different from Zhang Mingzhen! Zhang Mingzhen is a famous general in Zhu Youjian's later memory. He is loyal to the court at this time, and the possibility of rebellion is very small. But Zheng Cai is different, this guy is an old pirate
With his background, it is difficult to say that he can cut off ties with the Zheng family, so his appointment needs to be carefully considered.
"What I mean is that Zheng Cai's original subordinates need to undergo military training in Tianjin for half a year before they can be used again, and his old subordinates cannot be deployed on the battlefield in the south in the next two or three years to avoid any accidents."
"Your Majesty, although Zheng Caiqi's troops only have more than a thousand people, they can't just live on their own after being reorganized by the imperial court, right? If they don't join the battlefield in the south, the navy won't have any other big things to do in recent years?" Huang Degong heard from the emperor what he said in recent years.
I don't understand why Zheng Cai's men have not been able to be put into the southern battlefield for years. If they are not put into the southern battlefield, what will they be used for?
"In addition to the southern battlefield, the navy also has other uses. For example, the normal patrol of North Korea's Dongjiang Airlines, and even the normal patrol of Japan in the future, all of which need to be done by the navy! My idea is that since the navy
With its strength greatly expanded, it is time to further reorganize the navy. The navy will be officially organized into one general headquarters and three fleet headquarters. The home ports of the three fleets are respectively in Lushun, Dengzhou and Songjiang. The navy's general headquarters is located in Lushun, Dengzhou and Songjiang.
In Tianjin, he served as Shuangyou and the Commander of the First Fleet of the Navy. Zhang Mingzhen was appointed as the Deputy Commander of the First Fleet. The home port was Songjiang. Fang Ruocheng was appointed as the Commander of the Second Fleet. The home port was Dengzhou. Zheng Cai was asked to bring his people to Tianjin first to prepare for the establishment of a naval base in Lushun.
Third Fleet."
"Your Majesty, how big are the three fleets of the navy?" After listening to the emperor's words, Huang Degong turned his attention to the topic of the navy's establishment. Compared with the expansion of the navy, Zheng Cai's personnel placement was a small problem.
"Compared to the army's division-level organization, but the overall scale is smaller. A naval fleet includes between 7,000 and 8,000 ground personnel, 100 to 150 main battleships, and an additional 200 or so
Other auxiliary ships, and the Navy General Headquarters has jurisdiction over a Marine Division. The basic formation of the First Fleet and the Second Fleet will be completed by the end of this year! The basic formation of the Third Fleet will be completed by the end of next year! The First, Second Fleet and Marine Division will be completed this year and next
The main combat mission is to complete the previous strategic plan. The third fleet's main mission in the future is to clear up and patrol pirates in North Korea and the Japanese waters." The Zheng family seems to have been conducting sea trade activities on the Japanese route. Zheng Cai should be concerned about this.
He is familiar with the sea conditions and forces in the area, so it would be more appropriate for him to do this.
"Your Majesty, is it inappropriate for Zheng Cai to be the commander of the Third Fleet?" Chen Xinjia expressed his concerns.
"I haven't decided on the command of the Third Fleet yet. I have ordered Zheng Cai and Zhang Mingzhen to come to Beijing to report on their duties first. I will make a decision after meeting with them." The formation of the Third Fleet still needs a process, and there may be some uncertainty in this process.
The navy will grow up a group of generals who can take the lead, so there is no need to rush to decide on a candidate to command the Third Fleet.
The memory of Zheng Cai and Zhu Youjian in later generations is very vague. I don’t know what he did specifically. I just remember that he seemed to have competed with Omu classmate in the real historical time and space, but it seems that he did not vote for Qing. So this person
Zhu Youjian was a little unsure whether it could be used.
When I think of Zheng Cai and Zhu Youjian, I think of Zheng Damu. I wonder if this celebrity is now beginning to show his prominence under the wings of his father? Zheng Zhilong is a speculator, warlord and pirate who is too strong, even if he is incorporated in the future
After leaving the Zheng family, he will never be allowed to continue to exist in the military. So can his son Zheng Damu be used?
In the memory of later generations, although Zheng Damu was determined to resist the Qing Dynasty, he still had warlord habits. However, under such circumstances, it seemed that every military leader looked the same. Even the recognized loyal general Li Dingguo looked the same. Otherwise
Why did Zhu Youfan, the cheap cousin, rather go to Burma than to Li Dingguo’s military camp?
After the navy basically controls Songjiang's stall, the next step is to enter Comrade Yiguan's base camp and officially start the decisive battle with the Zheng family. At that time, can we give the Zheng family a way out based on Omu's historical deeds?
?
It's hard to give the Zheng family a way out! It would be fine if they were just a pure warlord or pirate force. The problem is that the Zheng family is a large ocean-going interest corps combined with merchant and bandit armies. It's just a matter of integrating their military system.
It doesn't seem to be a good idea, nor is it very attractive. But if you accept it completely, it will be more difficult to operate. Forget it, we will find a way to deal with this matter later when we face it formally.
"Your Majesty, I heard that the Zheng family seems to have bought a large amount of national debt? Since they have blatantly opposed the court, can this national debt be confiscated?" Zhou Yanru listened to everyone discussing the situation of the navy for a while, and asked
He changed the topic in another direction. In his opinion, the Zheng family dared to go against the imperial court, which was a slap in the face. More than two million taels of silver were staked here. Don’t they take this money seriously?
Don't tell me, the Zheng family really doesn't take such a small amount of money seriously. For the Zheng family, which is truly wealthy, this small amount of money is just a small goal and cannot be treated as a big sum. It is estimated that Zheng Zhilong spent money to buy national debt.
It’s just for risk hedging investment!
Is the Zheng family buying treasury bonds just to hedge risks? Of course not! Zheng Zhilong bought treasury bonds for no other reason than to use the treasury bonds as collateral to borrow military bills. Military bills are now not only high-quality currency in the Ming Dynasty, but also throughout East Asia.
It is a widely circulated currency. When Zheng Zhilong first started, he also wanted to imitate the military stamps to create his own banknotes. However, after he made it himself, he found that the printed banknotes were difficult to be accepted and recognized by others. So he changed his mind and directly used silver to make his own banknotes.
The imperial court sold a batch of high-priced military notes to facilitate its trade settlement.
An economy of the size of the Zheng family does need a value currency that is easier to measure for trade settlement. In addition, for their sake, they have an internal economic cycle system, and they no longer make small fortunes like other businessmen do.
Now, it’s time to play big finance or even currency. Don’t look at people buying military tickets for more than 20 to 30% higher than the actual price. After getting it and hedging it through a series of settlement methods, it will actually be wiped out.
Even this premium is equal. With a large amount of military bills as a universal currency, it will be much more convenient for them to do trade, and it will be equivalent to the US dollar reserve for future generations!
"The Zheng family has already taken back the bulk of the money through mortgage loans. It doesn't make much sense to stop paying now. On the contrary, it will affect the credibility of the national debt! So forget this! The national debt only recognizes the bonds but not the people. This is a permanent system! Even if you buy the bonds
You are a bastard, you must pay what you deserve!"
