Chapter 405

Time passed day by day, and soon it was the end of the year.

The 41st year of Jiajing is about to pass.

A lot has happened this year. Tartar pirates in the north, Japanese pirates in the south, Yan Ge old fall, Xu Ge old upper, officialdom earthquake.

However It should have been a very difficult year, but it was very smooth and peaceful, giving people a sense of peace and tranquility.

Tatar was bombed by the first battle of Huating marquis. Now the banner is dead. Even the herdsmen dare not get close to the place ten miles away from the Great Wall.

The Japanese pirates in the South were swept from north to south by Huating marquis. They were driven out of the South China Sea and did not dare to go north at all. Since August, there has been no Japanese invasion in the coastal prefectures of Daming.

The "South Japanese and North captives" that once harmed the Jiajing Dynasty for several decades did not exist!

For a while, the world was peaceful. This makes the officials of various ministries in the DPRK not used to it!

Hai Rui's high-yield crop pilot work in Henan Province has also achieved great success.

Corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, wheat And so on high-yield crops, has obtained the astonishing bumper harvest.

All kinds of crops together, the autumn harvest of Henan Province has a total grain yield of 34 million stone!

Compared with the previous year's grain production is more than ten times higher!

If this data is not reported by Hai Rui, no one dares to believe it!

With so much grain, not only did Henan Province no longer worry about famine, but also the autumn grain collected by the imperial court from Henan Province had been piled up in countless warehouses.

Under the rule of Luli, nanzhili also gained a good harvest. In addition to ensuring the rations of the army and the people under his command, he also handed over countless grains to the court.

When the two sides add up, and the autumn grain collected from all over the country, the Minister of the Ministry of household found that the Daming National Treasury was full of grain.

There is grain in hand, but not panic in heart.

Drought in Shaanxi Province? How much food do you want? Is a million stones enough? If it's not enough, I'll give you two million stones!

Hai Rui went back to Beijing to face the saint, wrote a memorial to the promotion of high-yield crops in Henan Province, and advised emperor Jiajing that once the high-yield crops were promoted throughout the country, the people in the world would no longer worry about famine!

Emperor Jiajing is very happy: what's wrong with Laozi Xiuxian? What's wrong with me ignoring the government? The country is free from the danger of frontiers, and the people are free from the worry of famine. Which one of you can do it?

What about Qin emperor and Han Wu? What about Tang and song? Which one of you can do it? Stand up!

I didn't do anything, I became an emperor forever! This is the destiny!

In his heart, Emperor Jiajing decreed that Hai Rui should be promoted to minister of the Ministry of household and take charge of the promotion of high-yield crops in China.

No one in the court objected to this will. On the one hand, Hai Rui's character is too strong; on the other hand, Hai Rui's promotion of high-yield crops in Henan Province is too frightening. Even if someone envies Hai Rui, they dare not gossip.

Hai Rui took office. According to his agricultural knowledge in lujiazhuang and his experience in promoting high-yield crops in Henan Province, he made a detailed plan for the promotion of high-yield crops according to the actual situation of all provinces in China.

In northern China, corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes and wheat are the main crops. In Jiangnan, rice is the main crop. In other hilly areas, corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes and other crops are also widely planted.

In fact, the northern part of the Ming Dynasty was totally short of grain, mainly relying on the south to bring in grain to supplement the lack of grain production in the north.

Now, after the comprehensive promotion of high-yield crops, there is no shortage of food in the north. There will be no shortage of food in the south.

As long as high-yield crops are widely planted throughout the country next year, there will be no famine in Daming.

These high-yield crops are all produced by Luli.

Emperor Jiajing did not forget Lu Li. Isn't there no more Japanese pirates in the south? Then give him another general title.

As a result, Lu Li's title of general Hushi was upgraded to "General of Zhuguo". And then Jiajing sent dozens of maids to the palace.

The title of General Zhu is very good. It's only three levels away from the General Zhu. But What does it mean to send my sister again? I'm single. What's the matter? Have you eaten your white rice?

After receiving the imperial edict, Lu Li couldn't help rolling his eyes.

At the end of the year, instead of returning to Songjiang Prefecture, Lu Li built a "Nanhai governor's Yamen" in Guangzhou city to supervise Nanhai and handle military affairs.

Since the construction of Keelung Harbor Naval Base on WAN island in August, in the past four months, the multi thread operation of land departure has been in full swing, and the construction of naval bases everywhere has begun to take shape.

Qiongzhou base, Wan island base, Ryukyu base, Jeju Island base, Hokkaido base and Jinshan port base have been completed in succession.

Apart from the bay island base, which is a key development base, which has 50000 Japanese prisoners and 10000 garrisons, other bases have only 5000 garrisons and more than 10000 refugees collected by coastal governments.

The prisoners and refugees were responsible for industrial and agricultural production, and the garrison maintained order. In the future, we will continue to emigrate, carry out overseas colonization, and strengthen the construction of the base.

At the moment, there are a lot of coal, ammunition and various supplies in the bases. This enables the fleets under the land detachment command to obtain supplies from various bases and greatly increase their range.By the end of the year, the size of the fleet under Lu Li's command was further expanded.

Zheng Yuan presided over the construction of the sea ban is the ancestral law, Lu Li's false words to open the sea, is treason.

That's a good idea. More officials, like mad dogs, have caught Luli.

What is "supporting the army with self-respect", what is "born anti bone" and what is "rebellious mentality is known to all". He even impeached Lu Li for "calling hundreds of prostitutes" to join his generals in the military camp. They are immoral and illegal, and the scenes are ugly.

What's the news! You can spray as you like?

Emperor Jiajing was not stupid. On the contrary, he was a rare intelligent man with high intelligence quotient. Why don't you know what happened?

Lu Li set up the memorial of Shi Bo Si, poked the hornet's nest, and let these officials fight back and bite madly.

It's just What was the most important thing for emperor Jiajing? Cultivating immortals is the most important thing.

It's so noisy that I don't even know how to cultivate immortals. What a fart!

As a result, Emperor Jiajing issued a decree to reprimand Lu Li, and the proposal to set up a Shi Bo Si was naturally invalid.

In this way, the court hall will be quiet immediately.

Lu Li received the imperial edict of reprimand and frowned slightly, with a chill in his eyes.

Dare to fight against me? Do you fear that we have no idea who has the final say?

Lu Li immediately ordered that the North Sea fleet, the East China Sea fleet and the South China Sea fleet, the whole army set out to inspect the sea territory. All sea going ships were intercepted, and no sails were allowed to go to sea. Those who dare to resist were sunk immediately!

Don't you say "the law of ancestors" to Laozi?

Well, the ancestor's method is "no sail at sea". This law must be strictly enforced.

The order of banning the sea was issued, and the three fleets launched an all-out attack to intercept any sea going ships that dare to go to sea.

From the North Sea to the South China Sea, countless sea merchants and thousands of sea going ships in the coastal area of Daming were blocked by the powerful ships and cannons.

It's not like nobody's fighting.

There are always some guys who think they have a big future and no one dares to challenge the hegemony of land and sea.

For example Xu family in Songjiang.

As a leader of Qingliu, Xu Ge was the first assistant of the imperial court, but there was no Qingliu at home.

The Xu family has 240000 mu of fertile land, widely planted silk and hemp, and set up numerous silk workshops. They are now the largest maritime merchants in Southeast China, and none of them have any.

After Lu Li's ban on the sea was issued, countless sea merchants were chased back by powerful ships and cannons, but The Xu family is not afraid of Lu Li.

Head of the court. Let's know.

You are only a military general in Luli. Do you still fight against the chief assistant of the current dynasty? I dare you!

So the Xu family organized a huge fleet to sail out of Songjiangfu and set sail in the direction of Japan.

In today's Ming Dynasty, the main object of overseas trade in the East China Sea was Japan.

Overseas trade in Southeast Asia includes the grape duck people and Xiban duck people in Annan, Siam and even Malacca.

The Xu family's fleet went out to sea, which also led countless sea merchants from Su Song's two prefectures to follow.

For a while, a huge fleet of hundreds of sea going ships sailed into the ocean.

And then Jeju Island was the direction of the North Sea fleet, blocked in the East Sea.

"Attention, fleet ahead. This is the Daming North Sea fleet."

The destroyer stopped in front of the fleet, and the general of the fleet yelled to the fleet through the huge bronze loudspeaker: "according to the sea ban, it is illegal for your fleet to go to sea. Please lower your sails immediately

The five destroyers lined up, and the voice in the buzzer kept ringing.

However Xu family's head is very iron. They don't pay attention to this fleet at all.

, the Ming Dynasty is my home Xu Gelao has the final say, you are all the same!

"Hang the flag of Xu to show your identity."

A manager of the Xu family snorted with disdain, "run into it directly, and see which of them dares to stop it!"

The flag of the Xu family was raised high. The Xu family's fleet, with the following ships, rushed towards the intercepting destroyers ahead. They had no scruples and were extremely overbearing.

"Fire warning!"

At the command of the general, five destroyers fired a volley in front of the fleet.

Dense shells hit the sea, blowing up huge columns of water. The splashing water even spilled onto a leading Xu Jiahai ship.

"They're firing. What's to be done?"

On the ship headed by Xu Jiahai, the crew of the ship trembled.

"Just make an appearance. They dare not really do it!"

The manager of the Xu family disdained, "who dares to offend the Xu family in the Ming Dynasty? Keep going

The artillery warning was invalid, and the fleet was still rushing up.

Destroyer, sub fleet commander, holding a telescope to see this scene, face a cold.

"These moths are so arrogantWith a cold hum, the commander of the sub fleet waved and ordered: "gather fire and sink the first ship of the fleet!"

At the command, the five destroyers formed a battle formation, and the side guns aimed at the first ship of the fleet.

"Boom!"

The first ship of the fleet was bombarded with dense shells, which instantly blew the ship to pieces!

"Ah How dare you? How dare you? "

Seeing this scene, all the members of the Xu family's fleet, as well as the other sea merchants who followed them, screamed with fright one by one.

"Sail down, stop. Otherwise, sink them all

The frigid warning sounded again in the destroyer's buzzer.

This time, no one will return the iron.

A ship has been sunk. If you dare to resist, all the sinking is just a matter of firing more guns.

In this case, the Xu family fleet and the following maritime merchants can only return under the escort of the destroyer.

After this battle, no more sea going ships dare to go to sea in Daming sea area.

There is a direct conflict between Huating Marquis and Xu Ge Lao. Everyone is waiting for the final result.

After receiving the report, Lu Li saw that the North Sea Fleet sank a Xu family ship, but he just turned his mouth and didn't take it seriously.

, Lao Tzu has the final say at sea! This is maritime hegemony!

……

The capital.

Xu Ge received a letter from the Xu family. He learned about the fleet under Lu Li's command, sank a Xu family ship, and blocked all the fleet back to the port.

Xu GE's face was so blue with rage, but he had nothing to do!

Because Lu Li was also elated with a memorial, and submitted to the court a work summary of "strictly implementing the law of ancestors, cleaning the sea, and ensuring that pianfan could not go into the sea".

This is an honest and upright division. This is absolute strength.

This is to tell everyone clearly, who does not pay taxes, then do not want to do business.
