Chapter 296 Don't agree

Yu Xiaotian hated the Manchus from an early age. After entering the customs, these Manchus brought profound disasters to the Chinese and destroyed a large number of brilliant culture left by ancient China, brought China into the abyss of humiliation, and even left a great shadow on China until the 21st century. Sound.

So now he has come to this era. If there is a little chance, he doesn't want to see the day when the Manqing Tahs enter the customs. Unfortunately, at present, he has no ability to influence the direction of history. He can only watch the giant wheel of history run forward according to the original trajectory, but he is unable to stop it.

I'm afraid this is also the fundamental reason why Yu Xiaotian has spared no effort to develop his strength since he came to this era. The most fundamental reason is that sooner or later, he wants to change the course of history and save Chinese civilization from the hands of the Manchu and Qing tars.

So at the end of last year, although he concentrated on dealing with Chu Cailao's affairs, after learning about the business of the Dongjiang army, he still sent people from the director's office. After choosing the opportunity to thaw the sea ice along the coast of Liaodong, he sent two or three ships to buy a few ships of grain and transport them to the Dongjiang army.

Of course, Yu Xiaotian is absolutely not arrogant enough to think that his strength can affect the course of history. He just wants to establish contact with the people of the Dongjiang Army in this way and have a deeper understanding of the situation in Liaodong.

In addition, the Dongjiang army did have the good things they need. Since Jiannu rebelled, the Ming Dynasty banned Ming merchants and Jiannu from conducting any form of transactions in the Ming Dynasty. Although a large number of Jin merchants were still making a fortune secretly, secretly hooked up with Jiannu to transport a large amount of food out of the customs and solve the problem. Jiannu's demand for food has also provided a large amount of military food for Jiannu, but such a ban still plays a role. At least in the medicinal market in the south, ginseng, Korean ginseng, tiger bones and other things have become rare shortage of goods, and only a few people can get some from Jin merchants or the Dongjiang army.

And these ways are only in the hands of a very small number of people. These medicinal traders are curious about hoarding goods. At present, the price of these northern specialties is extremely high, and it is difficult to find.

At present, sea wolves also have a demand for these medicinal materials. In addition, through Maoshengyuan, they have also secretly established their own pharmacy, so they also need such things.

Yu Xiaotian will definitely not consider trading with Jiannu Taranzi at the time, so the only way to get these things is to solve it from the Dongjiang army.

However, Mao Wenlong's business reputation of the Dongjiang Army is obviously not very good. In order to raise food and salaries, Mao Wenlong issued a lot of empty checks to many patriotic merchants, so that many merchants went bankrupt. He has heard about this matter, so although he wanted to help Mao Wenlong, he did not It is generous enough to send a large amount of grain to Mao Wenlong.

After this year, he sent people to take a few boats of grain to Liaodong. He just wanted to get on line with the Dongjiang Army first and exchange a few boats of grain for some Chinese medicinal materials such as ginseng and tiger bones from the Dongjiang Army. Of course, animal skin is also a good commodity. Such a business can still be done. Even if the Dongjiang Army really repudiate the debt, he will be a big deal. Even the loss of a few ships of grain, such a loss is still bearable for him. It is right to help Mao Wenlong and make a little help, which can also make him feel more or less comforted.

And he believes that if Mao Wenlong knew the name of the sea wolf, he would be willing to do business with him. At present, he has decided to do arms trading, and Dongjiang Army is undoubtedly a good buyer. It is estimated that Mao Wenlong will definitely raise his hands and feet after learning the news. Welcome him to Liaodong to do business.

In addition to the incident in Liaodong, Yu Xiaotian also sat down to sort out his plans for the future taking advantage of the typhoon in the past few days.

After a day's rest, his staff member Lin drank some rice porridge and finally recovered. He watched the chicken cage village in the rain, especially after seeing the special wall of the chicken cage village and the built fort, Lin Yiyang threw himself into the ground with admiration for filial piety.

The wall of Jilongzhai is basically built according to local conditions, using local materials and directly mined stone. Unlike the wall in other places, it is built with wood, and basically all of it is made of stone.

Although the wall is not high, it is very strong. The stone seams of the wall are bonded with lime clay. Although it can't catch up with the strength of cement in later generations, it is also quite good and can withstand the bombardment of ordinary artillery in this era.

Moreover, the wall of the chicken cage village is also used as a polygonal burg structure. There are enough holes left on the wall and rooms for Tibetan soldiers, which are connected by channels. Through the holes in the wall, effective crossfire can be formed under the wall, and a small number of defenders can effectively defend the village. But for the attacking side, it is not easy to attack the fortress.

It is difficult for the attacker to find the weak points of the wall and can't effectively exert the firepower of heavy artillery. If the attack alone, it is difficult to effectively attack the wall without ten times the strength of the defenders. Even so, the attacking side may have to pay an extremely heavy price.

What's more, Yu Xiaotian also built two forts at the mouth of Jilong Bay, in which a number of heavy guns were displayed. If the smaller fleet wanted to attack the bay, it would basically be completely destroyed in front of the firepower of these two forts.

So even if it can't be said that Jilong Bay is already solid at present, at least it can't be taken by anyone who wants to take it. It can be seen that Yu Xiaotian has begun to plan here a long time ago and invested a huge amount of money to operate it to the current scale.

And according to Lin Yiyang's observation, the sea wolf people here have also begun to build a fort at the mouth of the bay on the east side of Jilong Bay. Once this fort is built, it is equivalent to completely blocking all the waterways into Jilong Bay. This Jilong Bay can basically be said to be rest assured.

After looking at the situation in Jilongwan, Lin Yiyang sighed and was even sure that the chess game played by Yu Xiaotian was not small. He was not only satisfied with being a group of pirates roaring in the sea. Following such an ambitious person, Lin Yiyang also began to be full of confidence.

At the invitation of Yu Xiaotian, Lin Yiyang also took the opportunity to rest in the chicken cage. The two sat in the chicken cage and chatted about the current trend of the world.

For the future of the Ming Dynasty, it is obvious that people like Lin Yiyang cannot have a clear understanding, especially those living in the south, who can't experience the situation facing the people in the north.

However, Lin Yiyang still has a clear understanding of the current serious land annexation problem of Daming, because he is also a direct victim of such a matter and hates it.

However, when Yu Xiaotian mentioned Jiannu in the north, Lin Yiyang sneered and did not think that Jiannu would become the enemy of the Ming Dynasty. At best, it was just a disease of ringworm.

In the view of a scholar like him, although Jiannu has been very noisy over the years, after all, the number of people is small, and the Ming Dynasty is dangerous. Although the Ming army has many failures to deal with Jiannu in recent years, which has caused Jiannu to ravage in Liaodong, it is at most rampant for a while.

Daming's jurisdiction is thousands of miles away, and there are many soldiers and generals. As long as you rise up one day, you can completely defeat Jiannu, which is not enough to worry about.

Yu Xiaotian was quite speechless about this, because Lin Yiyang's idea represented the thoughts of the vast majority of people in the Ming Dynasty in this era. They lived in a relatively peaceful interior and did not know the ferocity and power of Jiannu at all, let alone the pain endured by the Han people in Liaodong.

In their eyes, Jiannu has always been just a group of jumping clowns, not opponents of Daming at all. Even if Jiannu is very arrogant at present, in their opinion, it is just rampant for a while, and there is no need to worry too much.

Yu Xiaotian shook his head and said, "Mr. Lin, your words are not good! I'm afraid Daming is not as powerful as you think!

Let's not talk about the luxury chaos that is raging in Sichuan and Yunnan at present! I'm afraid it has been four or five years since the rise of the luxury chaos. The rebels killed people. First surrounded Chongqing, and then surrounded Guiyang, forcing the soldiers and civilians to eat each other!

And the court sent troops to suppress it, but it failed repeatedly. Can it be said that there were no soldiers in the Ming Dynasty? Why can't it be extinguished? Did it poison the place for several years?

The Ming Dynasty is no longer the Ming Dynasty in the year of Hongwu! At present, there are a lot of corruption in the Ming Dynasty, the generals are greedy and afraid of death, and the civil servants are violently restrained! In the dynasty, there were treacherous sicks in power, and eunuchs took control of the government!

Originally, with the national strength of the Ming Dynasty, Jiannu should indeed be nothing, but the court did not use people properly, so that the literature and martial arts poured into each other!

The Dongjiang Army in Liaodong fought alone, but never received enough support from the court. Even the limited grain and salaries issued by the court were still floating on the way and fell into the private pockets of officials.

How can soldiers kill in this way?

Thousands of miles of levee collapsed in the ant nest! Although Daming looks very powerful on the outside, in essence, it has already been full of holes by moths and can't stand any wind and rain!

Recently, before we set out, I heard that there had been a people's uprising in Shaanxi, and there has been a severe drought in Shanshan and Shaanxi for years, but the court did not care about it and did not want to give relief at all, so that there was a tragedy of people eating each other in many places, but the court still refused to reduce or exempt taxes. The people could only rise up without making a living!

I'm afraid Mr. Lin will say that this is just a disease of scabs! But if it goes on like this, it will *, a spark can start a prairie fire. Once one day the people are forced to be helpless and have to ask for life from the thief, I'm afraid the world will be completely chaotic!

It can be said that it is the first clue, but it has not attracted enough attention from the imperial government!

But I can bet with you that if within five years, you will definitely see a large number of people in the north. If there is no chaos I expected within five years, I will wash my hands from now on and become a good citizen in Lu'an from then on!"

After listening to Yu Xiaotian's words, Lin Yiyang frowned. From Yu Xiaotian's words, he seemed to feel that Yu Xiaotian was not optimistic about the future of the Ming Dynasty, and he had never heard of what he said about Shaanxi. He didn't know why Yu Xiaotian was on the Fujian Sea, but he still paid attention to so far away. Local affairs.

In a word, when he chatted with Yu Xiaotian intermittently these two days, he could clearly feel that Yu Xiaotian was not optimistic about the Ming Dynasty at all, and even thought that the Ming Building would collapse. As for when it collapsed, it was just a matter of time.

However, so far, although there is luxury chaos in the southwest and rampant construction slaves in the north, on the whole, there does not seem to be a greater chaos in the Ming Dynasty. Lin Yiyang can't figure out why Xiaotian is so not optimistic about the future of the Ming Dynasty, and insists that the situation in the Ming Dynasty will worsen.

He can't deny that after nearly 300 years, Daming is indeed seriously ill, full of corruption, and the world is full of anger and resentment. However, in his opinion, these things are not irreparable, as long as the emperor can work hard to govern, the civilian ministers, the generals use their lives, and The foundation of the Ming Dynasty has been in existence for more than 200 years, and it will not cause chaos in the world.

Therefore, Lin Yiyang did not pay attention to Yu Xiaotian's assertion. He just felt that Yu Xiaotian was too unfounded. Although he was a pirate leader, although he had a foresight, how could he understand the general trend of the world know much better than him as scholars? So he didn't take Yu Xiaotian's words too seriously and laughed at them.

Seeing that Lin Yiyang did not pay attention to his words, and even despised him, Yu Xiaotian couldn't help but be a little discouraged and a little angry, but on second thought, he felt that he was so angry at all. Not to mention that Lin Yiyang would have this view, I'm afraid that his words were even to the chief assistants and important ministers of the current dynasty. Listen, no one will take his words seriously, or even treat him as a paranoid madman.

After all, Daming has more than 200 years of foundation here. Even if there is something wrong with it, in the eyes of many people, it is just a disease of ringworm, which is not a big deal.

What's more, Lin Yiyang is just a scholar living at the bottom. Although he can be said to be more involved and more knowledgeable than some of his peers around him, his position determines that it is impossible for him to have a wide range of vision, let alone see the future situation.

Even Yu Xiaotian himself, if he hadn't come from later generations, he wouldn't have had this vision. Now few people can see the future direction of the Ming Dynasty, not to mention that the current emperor is still alive. No one can imagine that his life expectancy is less than two years left, let alone anyone can guess. The next person to be the emperor of the Ming Dynasty and cut off the Ming Dynasty is Emperor Chongzhen.

So Lin Yiyang didn't take these things for granted at this time. This is because he is the boss of the sea wolf. Lin Yiyang did not laugh at him for being unfounded. If others said these things, he would have been able to do it. He was sprayed to death by Lin Yiyang.

So Yu Xiaotian simply changed the topic and stopped talking about these things with Lin Yiyang. He has already said what he should say, so he can only wait for the time to verify his words. At that time, he believes that Lin Yiyang will be surprised and regard him as a heavenly man. Sometimes he predicts this kind of thing, if he uses it. Indeed, it is a sharp weapon. I guess Lin Yiyang will give up on him at that time and follow him all the way.

(Let's have a four-word chapter!)
