It will take time to completely conquer the Mongolian grassland and the Uszangdusi, but Wu Zongrui does not have that much time. The world is undergoing drastic changes. Although the Wu Dynasty is still at the top of the world, the countries in East Asia are only following the Wu Dynasty, and the West

The country also had tentative contacts with the Wu Dynasty. The warship formations of the Kingdom of Portugal and the Kingdom of Spain were completely defeated by the navy of the Wu Dynasty on the Taiwan Island and temporarily succumbed. However, in the following time, the rapid development of technology

Development, the emergence of the steam engine, led to the peak of the first industrial revolution. If the Wu Dynasty could not dominate the development of world science and technology, it would still fall behind by then, and a scene hundreds of years later might still happen.

The greatest wish of Wu Zongrui, who traveled through time, was to make the Chinese nation stand at the top of the world, and to make full use of the Chinese nation's thousands of years of culture to influence the world and pave a golden road for the rapid development of the Chinese nation.

The steam engine must appear in the Wu Dynasty, the birthplace of the first industrial revolution, and it must also be the Wu Dynasty.

The first industrial revolution in history started in 1733 and ended in 1840. The first industrial revolution in more than 100 years completely changed the structure of the world. The owner-peasants gradually disappeared, bringing with it the industrial bourgeoisie and the

industrial proletariat.

The Wu Dynasty was still a society dominated by farmers. With the strong support of the imperial court, a large number of business classes appeared in the south. Many workshops sprung up like bamboo shoots after a rain. The prototype of the capital class was already in place, and the commodity economy gradually occupied an important position.

In some places, it has surpassed the agricultural economy, but this is far from enough. Moreover, the court also needs to prevent the unlimited growth of the capital class and avoid excessive interference of capital in the government affairs.

The Imperial Court of Wu was already at the forefront of the world in its emphasis on and introduction of science and technology. In the schools opened in various parts of Wu, science and technology knowledge such as mathematics and geography began to be widely taught. Although the imperial examinations still existed, the format of the examinations gradually began to change.

, it is no longer entirely focused on the Four Books and Five Classics, and scientific and technological knowledge such as mathematics and geography are also included in the examination.

Many scientific and technological achievements have begun to appear in many workshops in the south, such as the progress of the textile industry, forms of division of labor and cooperation, one-stop production lines, etc., which are eye-catching.

This is the result of Wu Zongrui's efforts. If it were not for his high prestige and a large group of loyal and supportive officials, Wu Zongkun might not be able to do this.

Sometimes, Wu Zongrui had to succumb to reality, because most of the officials in the court grew up reading the Four Books and Five Classics. It was basically impossible for them to completely change their minds, as if they were ascending to heaven.

Schools in various places and the Royal Academy in the capital must cultivate a large number of scientific and technological talents as soon as possible. The imperial court is in urgent need of these scientific and technological talents with new ideas. The development and growth of the Chinese nation needs to rely on these talents. Next, Wu Zongrui will try his best to introduce them from all over the world.

talents and let them serve the Wu court.

Calculating it this way, Wu Zongrui doesn't have much time.

A person's life is limited, and his energy is also limited. Therefore, while Wu Zongrui is striving to promote the reform of the Wu Dynasty, he must also carefully train the prince Wu Fancheng so that Wu Fancheng has the most advanced ideas at the moment and can lead the future direction of the Wu Dynasty.

If possible, the emperor's grandson should be carefully cultivated.

Having conquered the Ming Dynasty, Wu Zongrui was not satisfied, and his sense of worry became even stronger.

No matter how full the ideal is or how detailed the plan is, it must be advanced step by step and realized slowly step by step. Some things cannot be rushed, but some things cannot be delayed either.

For example, when it comes to the integrity of the country and the stability of the domestic situation, this matter cannot be delayed too long.

If the internal affairs cannot be completely stabilized and territorial divisions persist, it will be difficult for the imperial court to concentrate on people's livelihood, scientific and technological development, and external expansion.

Stabilizing the Mongolian tribes and the prairie is the first step. Next, we need to stabilize places like Uszangdusi.

Wu Zongrui treated the Empress Dowager Bumubutai of the Qing Dynasty kindly and did not kill the Emperor Fulin of the Qing Dynasty. On the one hand, he had enough self-confidence, and on the other hand, he also wanted to win over and control the Mongolian tribes as soon as possible.

The Eight Banners Army was completely destroyed, and tens of thousands of Eight Banners Army sergeants were incorporated into the Denglai New Army. These sergeants received the education of the Military Lecture Hall and kept in mind the military discipline and rules of the Denglai New Army, whether they were Manchus or Mongols.

, they will not suffer much discrimination among the new Denglai army, and their families will also be resettled.

This move completely stabilized the north. The few Manchu nobles with ulterior motives had no chance at all. They could not recruit people. If they were not careful, they might be reported by the Manchus around them and eventually die. A large number of Mongols entered Denglai.

Among the new armies, it can also influence the Mongolian tribes and urge the Mongolian tribes to surrender to the Wu court as soon as possible.

All of this is still missing an opportunity, and this opportunity is Bumu Butai, the empress dowager of the destroyed Qing Dynasty.

Wenhua Hall.

Wu Zongrui put down the memorial in his hand and spoke to Zeng Yongzhong, Lu Faxuan and Liao Wenru.

"The cabinet will make arrangements for marrying Bote. The Horqin tribe will send their Dorobele to see the bride off. The court should treat them well and give them a positive signal. As for the settlement of Bumbutai and Fulin in the capital, there will be no discussion in the future.

As mentioned, there is no need for the imperial court to kill them. We have basically stabilized the situation in the north and the Eight Banners Army has been completely destroyed. This gives us enough confidence. We should not publish too much news on this matter in the Royal Daily to avoid causing many

Bad discussion.”

"Qiao Mingjun led the troops stationed in Nurgandusi, and led the troops to defeat the Tsarist Russian army, forcing the Tsarist Russian army to pay a large amount of money and food compensation. He did a good job. He also warned Tsarist Russia that if they dare to behave like this again in the future

, the Denglai New Army will have to repay double the amount, but the conditions in Nuergandusi are difficult and the transportation is inconvenient. The court needs time to completely repair the official road to Nuergandusi, so they should pay more attention to Qiao Mingjun.

The money and food compensated by Tsarist Russia do not need to be transported to the capital, Qiao Mingjun will handle it, which is regarded as a reward given to them by the imperial court."

"The 50,000 Denglai New Army soldiers led by Liu Ning have already entered the Mongolian prairie. Originally, I planned to ask Liu Ning to wait and not rush to build a city in the Mongolian grassland. But now it seems that this is not possible. This matter cannot be delayed any longer. It must be

Build a city on the Mongolian grassland as soon as possible to complete the direct control of the entire Mongolian grassland. I have already made a decision on this matter. The cabinet has come up with a more detailed plan. After discussion at the court meeting, the imperial edict was issued to Liu Ning."

After saying these words, Wu Zongrui picked up the memorial on the desk again and opened it slowly.

"Someone in the court suggested that Zuodu Yushi should be included in the cabinet. Sir, Lu Ting, Wen Ru, what do you think..."

The hall fell silent for a moment.

Huang Zongxi, the imperial censor of Zuodu, was already a legend when he took office. Without Wu Zongrui's strong recommendation, Huang Zongxi, who only had the reputation of being a civil servant, was able to become the county magistrate in his lifetime. It was a blessing from heaven.

Huang Zongxi did not achieve many achievements in the Inspectorate, and there was a big gap between him and Wu Zongrui's expectations.

The reason for this is very clear to Wu Zongrui. In history, Huang Zongxi, as a key member of Fushe, put forward the idea of ​​"the world is the master and the emperor is the guest" and replaced the emperor's "law of the family" with "the laws of the world".

It can be said that in terms of academics and thoughts, Huang Zongxi is worthy of being a great Confucian, but in terms of officialdom and politics, Huang Zongxi has not made any achievements.

To put it bluntly, Huang Zongxi is very good at studying academics, but his ability to engage in practical work is average.

A nerd is unlikely to make a good bureaucrat.

Wu Zongrui already had the idea of ​​adjusting the candidates for Zuodu Yushi.

The power of the Inspectorate gradually increased, and it played an important role in suppressing official corruption. After the Wu Dynasty completely abolished Yanguan, the important role of the Inspectorate was instantly highlighted. Unfortunately, Huang Zongxi did not

Being able to seize this opportunity well and twist the Inspection and Inspection Council into a tightrope, laying a strong foundation for the Wu Dynasty to continue to move forward. Instead, they hold on to the idea that people are originally good by nature and try to correct it through education and discipline.

Deviation among officials.

There is another most important cognition in Huang Zongxi's thought, which is to appreciate the Yanguan system.

This was something Wu Zongrui couldn't tolerate. The Ming Dynasty's system of talking about officials was useless. It fostered a group of people who boasted and did not do practical things. It greatly promoted party strife and accelerated the collapse of the Ming Dynasty.

It was Liao Wenru who broke the silence.

"Your Majesty, I think that the Censor of Zuodu should join the cabinet, but I feel that Mr. Huang is not suitable to continue to serve as the Censor of Zuodu in the Inspection Council..."

Liao Wenru spoke first, as Wu Zongrui expected.

Liao Wenru had nothing to worry about in front of Wu Zongrui. Neither Zeng Yongzhong nor Lu Faxuan could do this, so on many sensitive issues, Liao Wenru was the first to speak.

Wu Zongrui nodded with satisfaction and looked at everyone before speaking.

"Wen Ru's suggestion is good. Taichong has been in charge of the Supervisory Council over the years and has done a lot of things. However, I think he seems to be more suitable for academic research, so I simply let him go to the Imperial Academy and go there.

Play an important role. As for the candidate for Zuodu Yushi, the cabinet will propose the candidate within three days and submit it directly to me..."

After Zeng Yongzhong and Lu Faxuan left, Wu Zongrui looked at Liao Wenru, sighed softly and spoke.

"Wen Ru, the next period of time is very important. If the imperial court's plan can be realized step by step, the country will be rich and the people will be strong. It will not be a big deal for all the countries to come to the court. To achieve all this, we need the performance of Denglai's new army.

Come out to determine the role of the Poseidon Needle, so you and Liu Ning must firmly control the Denglai New Army. Without my will, no one else is allowed to interfere with the affairs of the Denglai New Army. As for the prince, he can be given some military power.
