Yan Chengjin walked vigorously and prepared to enter the palace to inform His Majesty that the warship carrying artillery was made and could go south in three days to expel Franchise men.

Qin Xun came out of the East Warehouse and was about to leave the palace and return to the yamen of the Ministry of War.

But in the square of the Meridian Gate, I saw a man walking with steady steps. Isn’t that a steady boy from the Censorate?

He walked up two steps and said lightly: "Mr. Yan, Your Majesty has just discussed with me that he is going to send someone to Hainan. Have you made your artillery ship?"

On Yan Chengjin's small notebook rankings, Qin Rong is the first and Liu Jin is the second.

However, Qin Xun was upright and could not find any other shortcomings that could be impeached except for the numerous concubines.

He is just a small censor, and he is not sure that he will die with one shot, so Yan Chengjin will not impeach him.

Yan Chengjin happened to ask him: "A big ship has been equipped with artillery, so I asked Lord Qin to go to the warmer hall with the subordinates again."

Qin Rong narrowed his eyes slightly, and followed Yan Chengjin back to the warm pavilion.

Warmhouse,

At this time, three people from the cabinet were waiting for the imperial guards.

Yesterday, Li Dongyang had just left the chamber and returned to the cabinet to read the memorials. The feeling of sitting down was very different from before. He felt that he could assist His Majesty for another ten years.

Emperor Hongzhi was extremely happy when he saw Li Dongyang standing in the hall: "Yang Gongshun, a three thousand camp, was in charge of the camp, and he needed to re-spatch one person to the camp, and Li Qing's family would recommend one person."

Li Dongyang thought about it carefully and said, "Mao Liang, a thousand households in Shenji Camp, can take on this important task."

Mao Liang was originally a hundred households in the Three Thousand Camps. When he was invited to reward him, he was promoted to the Thousand households in the Shenji Camp.

Outside the hall, the little eunuch came in to report: "Your Majesty, Lord Qin of the Ministry of War and Lord Yan of the Censorate are here."

Yan Chengjin and Qin Rong walked into the hall. After saluting, he was a little surprised and saw Li Dongyang in the hall.

"Your Majesty, Liangxiang Shipyard has built a gun ship."

When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he smiled and said, "I am discussing with Qin Qing's family just now whether to send someone to Hainan first. It seems that there is no need for anyone to create it. I will be rewarded with many rewards."

Yan Chengjin glanced at Li Dongyang, and Li Dongyang said uncomfortable: "Your Majesty asks you, what do you think I do, it's not what I do."

Mou Bin looked at Emperor Hongzhi: "Your Majesty, a strange man from the Li family was made by Li Zhaofan."

Emperor Hongzhi said a few times, but saw Li Dongyang's face pale and was about to faint.

Li Dongyang never thought that he would prevent day and night, but Yan Chengjin was hard to prevent. Zhaofan was in the capital day and night, and rarely went to Liangxiang, so how could he build a ship?

"Yan Chengjin, when will Zhaofan go to Liangxiang?!"

Yan Chengjin said truthfully: "At the time when Lord Li was in the Jamstones, it was said that Lord Xie Pi, the son of Lord Xie, had taught him well. In two months, he taught Li Zhaofan all the courses."

Xie Qian was anxious: "Yan Chengjin, don't swear by someone..."

Emperor Hongzhi said seriously: "Li Zhaofan made great contributions to building artillery ships for the court, and the Li Qing family should not be too sad."

Li Dongyang nodded and said, "Yes."

After three days, you can go south to Hainan, but this is not a long-term solution.

After Hainan was developed, it became a rich island.

Moreover, once the Silk Road is opened on land, there will inevitably be ships from Southeast Asia, South Asia, West Asia and other places to head to the Ming Dynasty.

Yan Chengjin deduced it for a long time and thought about it again and again.

There is another very important thing to enter the palace this time.

"Your Majesty, I plead for the establishment of the Municipal Bosi in Hainan and the preparation of Japanese guards in Hainan."

Although Hainan has only been reclaimed half, it will eventually develop.

If it becomes a rich place like Jiangnan, it will definitely attract Japanese pirates and pirates.

Hainan and its local area did not have Japanese guards, so they needed to transfer troops from Guangdong, which could not relieve their near thirst.

Hainan used to be a place of exile, but now it is different.

Emperor Hongzhi nodded: "It makes sense. How many soldiers are Yan Qing's family planning to station?"

Yan Chengjin thought about it carefully before saying, "It's enough to divide 50,000 from the Beijing camp."

The flesh on Emperor Hongzhi's face sucked hard, as if someone had a knife and poked his heart.

There were only 100,000 people in Beijing, and they were divided into 50,000 and were half missing.

The 50,000 troops were enough to go to war with the Tatars.

There are 100,000 Beijing troops in the capital. If you send 50,000 to Hainan, you need to recruit another 50,000 Beijing troops.

Qin Sheng wanted to beat the boy to death, and gritted his teeth and said, "The Xuanfu stationed only 50,000 troops, and you can defend the Tatars in the north. If you want 50,000 people to Hainan and fight thousands of Franji people, I... I really don't know what to say about you!"

If His Majesty is not here, he will press it on the ground and beat the kid.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Yan Chengjin with a bright look: "Why does Yan Qing's family need so many troops?"

Sailing ships need to be docked and replenished, so Hainan became an extremely important port for the Ming Dynasty to travel south to the West, and could collect taxes.

Yan Chengjin said: "Hainan has only been halfway through development, and hundreds of thousands of stones can be transported back to the capital, and it will become a granary of the Ming Dynasty in the future.

Hainan is surrounded by the sea, and there are many places to land, so garages need to be arranged.”

Li Dongyang and Qiu Jun are familiar with each other and know Hainan better than others. They are surrounded by the sea and require a longer line of troops and defense.

"Your Majesty, it would be worth it if you have dozens of stones of grain in a season."

Emperor Hongzhi thought for a moment: "Can't you recruit from the market?"

"The soldiers in the market are not as good as the elite of the Beijing army." Yan Chengjin said.

"There are too many 50,000 Beijing troops. I will give you 30,000. Go south to Hainan." Emperor Hongzhi thought for a while and said, "The 30,000 Beijing troops went south to Hainan and ordered Xu Jinzhong to lead the commander."

Yan Chengjin's heart moved slightly, and Xu Jinzhong repeatedly mentioned in his letter that he wanted to return to the capital.

You can take Xu Jinzhong and his family to Hainan.

I went to Hainan and was from Hainan.

Without His Majesty’s order, I’m afraid I won’t be able to come back.

After coming out of the palace, Yan Chengjin and Li Dongyang were waiting for the sedan chair in front of the Meridian Gate. Li Dongyang deliberately stood farther and looked elsewhere.

"Lord Li is getting better?"

"snort!"

Li Dongyang snorted coldly, feeling impolite, turned to look at him, and saw that the son had nothing to do, he looked elsewhere: "I don't agree."

Yan Chengjin said: "Li Zhaofan will go to Hainan in three days."

Li Dongyang was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and said, "Don't scare me!"

"There are three large ships in Hainan that need to be renovated, with different sizes. Li Zhaofan still needs to go south. It's really not a revenge." Yan Chengjin said.

Zheng He went south to the West, and his naval ship was organized with more than 240 ships and a crew of 27,000, which was equivalent to the sum of the five guards' naval troops in the early Ming Dynasty.

When the Portuguese sailed for a long time, the fleet they brought must be dozens or even hundreds of ships.

Although the two large ships in Liangxiang have already been equipped with the Red Barbarian General.

However, it took a long time to load gunpowder, and the two ships could not deal with the entire Portuguese fleet, and the three horse ships that went south needed to be improved.

Li Dongyang stood there and was stunned.

...

Li's Mansion,

Li Zhaofan packed up his luggage and prepared to sneak to Liangxiang while Li Dongyang went to court.

When I walked through the main hall with a slight hand and foot, I saw Li Dongyang getting up early.

Li Dongyang waved and said, "Come here."

Li Zhaofan felt a little guilty and walked over and asked, "What's the matter with my father looking for the child?"

"Yan Chengjin wants you to go to Hainan, why don't you say anything to Youfather?"
