Chapter 238: Market Advocacy

Overnight, Jiannu lost control of the Liaodong Peninsula and suffered huge losses.△Small,...o This made the wild boar skin who returned to Liaoyang truly realize the arrival of the crisis.&1t;/p>

After some losses, the strength of the wild boar skin had dropped to about 100,000.&1t;/p>

The Ming army is twice the number of wild boar skins. If you attack at this time, it is entirely possible to drive wild boar skins out of the Liaohe Plain.&1t;/p>

However, the Ming army did not have large-scale cavalry. At that time, Jiannu would drill into the mountains and it would be difficult to annihilate the main force of Jiannu. Moreover, the territory controlled by the Ming army would be large, and the situation would be reversed again.&1t;/p>

At this time, the wild boar skin had to defend a larger territory, which had a great effect on their military strength. The production in Chenyang and Liaoyang places had been almost destroyed by Jiannu, and with the destruction of the guerrillas, there was no production. If it was recovered early and could not be opened, it would be useless.&1t;/p>

Therefore, the Ming army was step by step and built the Taizi River defense line in addition to the Liaohe River defense line.&1t;/p>

The wild boar skin truly realized the crisis and immediately sent people to the deep mountains and forests to capture the Jurchens. The so-called Jurchens are those Jurchen tribes wearing fish leather jackets.&1t;/p>

Tungus wild boar skin was actually forcibly kneading out a new nation, and under the banner of Jurchens, absorbing the Jurchens in large quantities into this robber gang. Of course, during the absorption process, violent arrest methods were actually adopted.&1t;/p>

Obviously, there are many Jurchens in the mountains. In order to make up for the disadvantages of military strength, the wild boar skin can only expand its army wildly.&1t;/p>

However, due to the withering of production, Jiannu's life was obviously not so easy at this time.&1t;/p>

There is no shortage of food for the time being, but iron is beginning to be in short supply. Especially in terms of steel, it cannot keep up with the damage and the replenishment of personnel.&1t;/p>

Obviously, the steelmaking technology mastered by Jiannu was the folk technology of the Ming Dynasty. It was even worse than the technology in the south. This kind of steelmaking technology requires a lot of labor.&1t;/p>

Smelting pig iron into mature iron and then forging into steel requires a lot of fuel. In this process, getting a piece of steel requires constant stirring and forging, and the labor force requires too much. And within the scope of Jiannu's occupation, production was very withered, and the population of Han people under Jiannu's rule also decreased sharply, and there was no such much manpower and material resources to support Jiannu's steel production.&1t;/p>

So much so that the steel produced by Jiannu himself has poor annual output.&1t;/p>

The smuggling channel was completely cut off at this time. The eight major merchants in the future had been confiscated by Zhu Youxiao. At this time, the Ming army anti-smuggling troops were also patrolling the border, and there were various reporting reward measures. So much so that Jiannu wanted to get a large amount of steel through smuggling, which turned into a daydream-like idea.&1t;/p>

However, Jiannu could barely raise an army of 70,000 to 80,000 people. Although the equipment may be uneven, the materials for food and other aspects can still last for a few more years.&1t;/p>

Of course, if there are more troops, it is not necessarily the case.&1t;/p>

The Ming army's destruction of wild boar skin production and the policy of killing their living forces has achieved very good results.&1t;/p>

News of the Liaodong victory was sent back to the pass, and Zhu Youxiao immediately asked the Daming Daily to continue to report.&1t;/p>

Previously, local rebellions continued. The main reason was that those reactionaries saw the Ming Dynasty defeated again and again in Liaodong. They were excited to think that the time for rebellion was up, and they couldn't help but jumped out to rebel.&1t;/p>

"The oo3 Division will be awarded the second-class merit once, and the fallen soldiers will be given pensions according to the first-class merit level. In addition, the Tengxiang Cavalry Army will be awarded the third-class merit once..."&1t;/p>

After reading the battle report, Zhu Youxiao rewarded meritorious service according to the list reported by Sun Chuanting.&1t;/p>

The rewards of the Central Army mainly include special merits to third-class merits. After making merits, you will have the opportunity to become an officer, and you will have a better place to go after you transfer to a career, etc. The rewards in the physical body are mainly land. This time, the Ming army recovered the Liaodong Peninsula, and it is obvious that the land has been obtained again.&1t;/p>

The rewarded land reached 30,000 mu, of which the 3rd Division received the most land rewards, followed by the Tengxiang Cavalry Army. Other troops involved in the battle also received a batch of land rewards.&1t;/p>

After the Liaodong Peninsula is recovered, the most important thing is to reap the benefits of war. Without the support of the benefits of war, the Ming Dynasty would not be able to expand externally.&1t;/p>

The royal consortium naturally moved, and Royal Capital and the royal merchants went out to rush to the Liaodong Peninsula to divide the fast cake.&1t;/p>

The most delicious thing about this cake is naturally obtained by Royal Capital. As a group of royal merchants who supplement the power of Royal Capital, they can also obtain a lot of resources that can be opened.&1t;/p>

Another thing is that the military has also divided a piece of cake through military achievements.&1t;/p>

However, arable land is only a part, and minerals, forestry, medicinal materials, and fisheries all have great interests, as long as it is opened.&1t;/p>

Royal Capital currently has transferred a lot of funds to Taiwan for opening. This time, the Liaodong Peninsula is obviously not so sufficient.&1t;/p>

However, it does not hinder the opening of Liaodong.&1t;/p>

After Yang Guorui entered the palace and discussed with Zhu Youzhai several times, he decided to establish a subsidiary of Royal Bank, called "Liaodong Opening Company", and then go public and raise funds directly.&1t;/p>

Before Liaodong opened a company to go public, Daming Daily reported on this "Yaozhou Victory".&1t;/p>

"The three armies used their lives in this battle. After a bloody battle, they successfully annihilated nearly 40,000 troops from Jiannu and successfully recovered the entire Liaodong Peninsula."&1t;/p>

The news of the victory immediately made the entire northern Zhili towns and towns very lively, with people and businesses setting off fireworks everywhere.&1t;/p>

Because of the economic prosperity of Beizhili, the lower-level people have had jobs and guaranteed groups that cannot be worked, which has generally solved the problem of food and clothing.&1t;/p>

In addition, this year, Zhu Youxiao began to strictly enforce the administration and administrative efficiency of Beizhili, and the phenomenon of corruption and extortion of the people has been completely suppressed. No one dares to openly embezzle, and no one dares to extort the people. And many miscellaneous taxes have been cancelled, and ordinary people’s impression of the court has been greatly improved.&1t;/p>

The official army won a battle on the front line, which is naturally worth celebrating.&1t;/p>

Those merchants also celebrated the victory to attract the attention of the people. Various taxes in Northern Zhili were on the heads of these merchants, and even agricultural tax fell on the heads of merchants due to land management reform. But at this time, the royal consortium had risen in Northern Zhili, and a large number of consortium merchants rose and gained the right to speak.&1t;/p>

Those businessmen who cannot adapt to the trend will be eliminated by Xun. Many of the businessmen who follow the trend will become royal merchants jointly operated with Royal Capital.&1t;/p>

In addition to those royal merchants, a large number of merchants also founded their own industries with the prosperity of economic momentum after the emergence of import and export tariffs.&1t;/p>

These businessmen who rose up with a series of reshuffle activities no longer attacked the court's decision to impose commercial taxes in Northern Zhili.&1t;/p>

The relationship between the imperial court and the merchants in the northern Zhili area was greatly eased.&1t;/p>

It can be said that Zhu Youxiao has initially cultivated an interest group, and the original emperor of the Ming Dynasty was the representative of the interest group of the landlord class.&1t;/p>

Therefore, the popularity of Beizhili is getting better and stronger day by day, and its status is becoming more and more stable.&1t;/p>

The next day, the Daming Daily reported another news that made everyone feel extremely excited. The title was "The Emperor's Resolution to Restore Liao in Three Years", which promoted and promoted Zhu Youxiao's plan to fully recover Liaodong in three years.&1t;/p>

The intention is obvious, that is, to prepare for the listing of "Liaodong Company Opening".&1t;/p>

After the news came out, Daming Daily made an appointment for the military and interviewed it. As the public opinion propaganda organization of the Royal Consortium, it naturally has various official connections, so it is very simple to make an appointment.&1t;/p>

This time, Daming Daily interviewed a commander in the commander who did not want to be named, and the staff officer claimed:&1t;/p>

"The emperor decided to recover Liaodong in three years. It seems reckless but it is not. It is a steady strategy. Some people think this is nonsense. If the Liaodong officers and soldiers are still in the same way as those who were damaged in military discipline two years ago, weapons and equipment were cut off from corners, military pay was deducted, and ordinary officers and soldiers could not even have enough food to eat, then it would be nonsense to recover Liaodong in three years."&1t;/p>

"But over the past two years, the emperor sent Sun Chengzong to governor Liaodong Town and tried every means to raise military expenses. After Sun Chengzong governor Liaodong Town, he rectified military discipline, organized troops, and built a defense line in the Liaohe River. He had stabilized the Ming army in one fell swoop. For two years, Jiannu did nothing and failed to plunder any population and materials from our Ming Dynasty."&1t;/p>

"At the same time, the emperor appointed Mao Wenlong to open the Dongjiang town to harass the rear of Jiannu, and has achieved great results. Jiannu was not familiar with production, and the Dongjiang army had made their rears full of holes through guerrilla warfare in the past two years, and the production was severely damaged. The emperor also seized the eight Shanxi merchants smuggled with Jiannu, completely cutting off the channel for Jiannu to smuggle materials from the Ming Dynasty. Now the production of Jiannu is not enough to support them to maintain a large number of troops for a long time. Our Ming Dynasty only needs to continue to block Jiannu for two or three years to make Jiannu collapse completely."&1t;/p>

"At the end of last year, the emperor added a large number of well-trained, well-equipped and disciplined Central Army to Jinzhou Town, and immediately won the Yaozhou victory this year. With the current military strength of the Ming Dynasty in the Liaodong region, even if it launches a full-scale counterattack against Jiannu, it can recover Chenyang. The reason why it does not launch a full-scale counterattack immediately is mainly to not give Jiannu any opportunity to counterattack and a possibility of turning the tables. In the next two years, our Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers will be step by step in Liaodong, and their military strength will be further improved. The Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers in Liaodong will have the most excellent equipment, the most sufficient military pay and supplies. In two years, Jiannu will be a gang of robbers who are seriously lacking in combat materials and may even lack food. At that time, they will be able to win in one battle, and they will not be able to recover the entire Liaodong without any suspense."&1t;/p>

The strategic goal of regaining Liaodong in three years is no longer important. Whether it is leaked or not is not important. The Ming army will definitely have absolute power to crush Jiannu in Liaodong. Jiannu knew that there was nothing he could do.&1t;/p>

After some advocacy, Liaodong Kai Company was officially listed. On the same day, the share price of Liaodong Kai Company soared all the way. The previous advocacy obviously gave investors great confidence. (To be continued...)&1t;/p>

ps: The first update!&1t;/p>&1t;/p>
