Chapter 406

Luli's action of confining and banning sea frontiers had a great impact.

Almost all the officials and gentry in the coastal areas did not go to sea and did not engage in overseas trade.

Originally, Lu Li wiped out the Japanese pirates, and there was a wave of maritime trade, which became more prosperous.

However Lu Li's action of confiscating and forbidding the sea border, however, strangled everyone's neck, and no one could move.

Dare to pass? All the boats in Xu GE's hometown have been sunk!

The sea frontier has been closed, the mountain of goods can not be transported out, and a huge amount of silver is consumed all the time. Even if the sea merchants have a strong family background, they can not stand such a toss.

We must lift the ban as soon as possible, and we can't let Luli continue to ban the sea.

But How can we get Lu Li to lift the ban?

The first thing officials habitually think of is Impeachment! Spray dead Luli! Let him lose his official position and even go to jail.

At the instigation of Xu Ge Lao, the officials of the central court are ready to launch a massive collective impeachment, which will bring Lu Li into disrepute and put him in prison.

At this time, Zhang Juzheng quietly reminded Xu Ge: "are you not afraid to force Lu Li against you? Once Luli revolts... "

Hearing this, Xu Ge shivered all over, and the cold sweat on his forehead came out.

For those who do not have the strength to revolt, or even will not revolt at all, civil servants can be reckless to spray, can be reckless to slander the other party to revolt.

But Those who really have the ability to revolt must not spray. If the other side really raises the anti flag, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Who in the world can control Lu Li? Maybe there will be a new dynasty. That's bullshit?

Even Lu Li didn't have to be a real rebel. All he needed was a "Qing emperor's side" to attack the capital and pick up Xu GE's head.

In the past, the routine of political struggle was meaningless to Lu Li, and even brought about death.

"Taiyue, go to talk with Lu Li. Everything is easy to discuss! I'm from Huating, too. Lu Li and I are from the same hometown. We should have kept watch and helped each other. There's no need to be so stiff. "

After recognizing the reality, Xu Ge immediately counseled.

This is very normal, in front of the knife and gun, recognize counsellor is the fastest.

"Yes

Zhang Juzheng quickly took orders and wrote a letter to Lu Li immediately. There was no advice between his words, but all about friendship and ideals.

However, we all understand the meaning.

After receiving the letter from Zhang Juzheng, Lu Li showed a smile on his face, "isn't that right? In this world, the truth is in the hands of guns. Dare to fight against me, can't I be a Cao Cao? "

Later, Lu Li once again on a memorial, please set up a municipal shipping department.

Along with the memorial was Lu Li's plan for setting up the city shipping department, including staffing, financial accounting, tax rate standards, tax distribution and so on. The plan was very detailed.

Lu Li even set up a "detection department" in the Department of municipal shipping. Five thousand soldiers were dispatched from the nanzhili guard station to serve as the tax detection teams of the Department of municipal shipping to crack down on tax evasion and smuggling.

Under the deterrence of banning the sea border and cutting off the sea trade, although the officials of the central government were very angry, they could only recognize Lu Li's arrogant and domineering actions.

Emperor Jiajing received the memorial of "please set up a municipal shipping department" proposed by the cabinet. When he saw that the cabinet was "feasible", he had a strange smile on his face.

Obviously, this is a battle between the officials of the central government and Lu Li. As a result, Lu Li beat them up and suffered a heavy loss. They can only honestly admit it.

In fact, in addition to receiving the official memorial, Emperor Jiajing also received a secret letter from Lu Li.

In this secret book, Lu Li gave emperor Jiajing a detailed description of the prosperous sea trade along the southeast coast, claiming that the profits of sea trade in one year were worth hundreds of millions of silver.

By setting up the municipal shipping department and strictly implementing the tax payment standard, the Daming Treasury will receive tens of millions of taels of tax silver. It is not a problem to divide the inner treasury of emperor Jiajing into several million or even tens of millions of taels every year.

How can China's maritime trade have such benefits?

Although emperor Jiajing was clever, he didn't have access to this information. Some of them couldn't believe it.

It's just Even if we don't have so much money, if we can get more than one million taels of silver every year, the capital for cultivating immortals will be even more abundant.

Then try it!

Then, Emperor Jiajing issued a decree to set up the municipal shipping department in Songjiang, Ningbo, Quanzhou and Guangzhou to start the work of Taxation on maritime trade.

As for the "ban on the sea" and the ancestral law of "no sails allowed to go into the sea", no one mentioned it or cared about it.

Do you really think that scholars care about the method of ancestors? Does emperor Hongwu still have the ancestral method of embezzling 50 liang of silver and then peeling off the skin and filling the grass? Why don't you see the way that scholars defend their ancestors?

It's all about profit.

The imperial edict was issued, and the municipal shipping departments were quickly established.

With the 5000 "detective teams" sent by Luli, there was no obstacle to the formation of the municipal shipping department.Those who want to make a stumbling block in the city shipping department, in the face of cold guns and knives, instantly stop.

The idea of "burning the municipal shipping department" did not dare to come out at all.

Don't be surprised, what could the civil servants, gentry and scholars of the Ming Dynasty not do?

The emperors of the Ming Dynasty sent out eunuchs to collect taxes. I don't know how many eunuchs they killed. All kinds of warehouses, government warehouses, and even shipyards are on fire one after another.

Why did the Ming emperor use eunuchs? Why set up police guard, East factory and West factory? Is it just to fight with civil servants?

Don't think that all the eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty had "sores on their heads and pus on their feet". All of them were blacked out by civil servants.

Don't think that the emperors in the late Ming Dynasty were born with mental retardation. They were all deliberately tossed out by civil servants. The emperor who died in a strange way, their cause of death ha-ha.

For most of the civil servants in the Ming Dynasty, Lu Li never believed in their integrity. Only under the threat of force can he make them honest.

The municipal shipping department is composed of eunuchs in the palace, officials in the central court and the investigation team of Luli. Under the control of the three parties and the deterrence of force, the smooth taxation of the municipal shipping department can be guaranteed. Otherwise I don't know when it will become a channel for civil servants to earn money.

Overseas fleets are still patrolling the sea. Ships without the tax payment certificate of the shipping department are punished for smuggling and all their property is confiscated.

There are destroyers on the sea and detective teams on the shore. Who dares to refuse?

After the city shipping department was officially established, countless maritime merchants blocked by the land and sea went to sea one after another after paying taxes honestly.

Just this wave of tax payment made the shipping department collect more than 5 million taels of tax.

The account department received four million taels of silver, and finally there was silver in the empty Treasury.

Emperor Jiajing also received one million taels of silver.

I'll go! Do you really make so much money? Emperor Jiajing was smiling. Good, good. Opening the market is a good idea. I have more money to cultivate immortals.

After dealing with the affairs of the city shipping department, Lu Li focused on overseas.

……

February, the 42nd year of Jiajing.

The north is still covered with ice and snow, but the South China Sea is sunny.

On this day, Luli assembled his fleet and set out from Sanya base on Qiongzhou Island, heading south.

In addition to the North Sea fleet and the East China Sea fleet, Luli assembled 30 destroyers and took hundreds of transport ships to sail in the direction of Annam Da Nang.

Since Lu Li drove the Japanese pirates into the South China Sea, Lu Li's army was stationed on Qiongzhou island and did not continue to pursue them south.

The Japanese pirates were driven away by the land, so they didn't carry enough supplies on board. To survive, we have to rob.

So After last August, Japanese pirates looted all over Nanyang. Jiaozhi, Annan and Zhancheng are naturally plagued by Japanese pirates.

On this day, a group of Japanese pirates burned, killed and looted a large number of goods and materials near Danang. They were preparing to go back on board.

At this time Huge black smoke rose in the distance.

A huge fleet, riding the wind and waves, roaring.

"Here comes the Marquis of Huating!"

"Here comes the army in black!"

"Run

The Japanese pirates were so scared that they couldn't even care about the goods and the women they had captured. They turned around and ran away.

Some fled inland, some fled to Shanghai ships, and fled in a hurry.

"Marquis, are you going to sink them?"

Navy General Zhang Wei, pointing to the flurry of the Japanese pirates on the sea, asked Lu Li.

"Fire a few guns, hit a few times, and sink a few ships symbolically."

Lu Li waved his hand with a smile. "I'm waiting for them to open the way for me."

"Yes

Zhang Wei immediately took the order.

In the roaring gunfire, several Japanese warships running behind were sunk, and other Japanese warships fled in all directions.

Lu Li was too lazy to chase. He gathered the fleet and landed in Danang.

Tens of thousands of troops rushed directly into Da Nang and occupied it.

Then, all kinds of materials were unloaded, and labor entered, and the base construction was carried out vigorously.

A big flag of sun and moon was set up on a hill outside Da Nang. The bright flag was flying in the wind.

The faces of countless Annan people inside and outside Danang are very complicated when they look at the sun and moon flag waving in the wind.

This is Daming!

It has been more than 100 years since Emperor Yongle's expedition to Jiaozhi. Daming has come back!

Shunhua city to the north of Da Nang.

When Chen Wenli, king of Annam's Shunhua, received the military news and saw the Ming army landing in Danang, he immediately shivered.

"The Chinese government sent troops to Da Nang. What can we do?"

King Shunhua's face turned pale and he was at a loss when he sat on the Dragon chair.It's just that he didn't pay tribute for several years, and Daming sent troops to attack? Do you want to be so cruel!

It was Jiaozhi Li Dynasty in the north that once attacked the border of Daming. It has nothing to do with me!

"Your Majesty, you..."

"Don't call me your majesty, call me your majesty. I'm king Shunhua of the Ming Dynasty. How can I surpass the system and become emperor

The king of Shunhua was stunned. "Hurry up! Hurry up and tear down all the things that are out of order in the city of Shunhua. The king went up and asked to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty. "

Next, the city began to demolish illegal buildings everywhere.

A group of envoys also headed for Da Nang, ready to inquire about the origin of the Ming heavenly soldiers.

A few days later, the delegation sent by King Shunhua arrived in Danang in a hurry.

When he came to Danang, the official of the Ministry of rites named Ruan Yuzhang was stunned for a long time when he saw that Danang had become a big construction site.

"Stop! Who are you

The patrol soldiers stopped the mission and asked with guns.

"Subordinate, under the command of Annam Shunhua king, Ruan Yuzhang, the Minister of rites."

Ruan Yuzhang saluted the sentinel soldiers, "please send a message to the officers and men of the heavenly Dynasty, and the lower officials will come to visit the general of your department."

"The Minister of rites? Or an official? "

The patrol monitor looked at Ruan Yuzhang and nodded with a smile, "do you want to see my Marquis? OK, I'll take you! "

With that, the patrol monitor led Ruan Yuzhang and his party into Danang.

Ruan Yuzhang met Lu Li in a courtyard outside Da Nang.

"Xiaguan, under the command of Annam Shunhua king, Minister of rites, meet the general of the Chinese dynasty!"

Ruan Yuzhang paid a deep homage to Lu Li in a respectful manner.

"I'm not a general."

Lu Li laughed and said, "my official, Lu Li, marquis Huating, General Zhu, governor of nanzhili and governor of Nanhai, is still three ranks behind the general."

"It's the Marquis of Huating. Forgive me!"

Ruan Yuzhang bowed deeply again, and then asked Lu Li, "I don't know if the Marquis has any service for me?"

"You're trying to beat around the Bush to find out what I'm coming from, aren't you?"

Lu Li Chao Ruan Yuzhang took a look and said with a smile: "Annan is a vassal of Daming. We Daming have the obligation to protect the vassal. I know that the Japanese invaders plundered Annam, burned, killed and plundered Annam, and the people were in dire need of living. I hereby lead the army to pacify the Japanese. "

"Well This... "

Hearing this, Ruan Yuzhang's face was a little stiff.

Vassal or something is just a name. Even the symbolic imperial tribute "peacock plume" has not been given to Daming by King Shunhua of Annan for several years. Who really thinks that he is a vassal state?

Now, Huating Marquis of the Ming Dynasty leads his troops to Danang in the name of protecting the vassal state What can we do?

"Mr. Hou, although there are Japanese pirates and bandits in Annan, it's not enough to worry about. We don't need to trouble the Chinese army to come to pacify the Japanese."

Ruan Yuzhang quickly refused to let Lu Li occupy Danang.

"It's not a matter of trouble or not!"

Lu Li stood up, took a look at Ruan Yuzhang and said with a smile, "the territory of Daming is the territory of Daming. As the governor of the South China Sea, I have the responsibility of guarding the land and protecting the people. There is no doubt about the sacred mission of the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty to protect their territory! "

From the legal point of view, the king of the vassal state belongs to the vassal state enfeoffed by the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and the territory of the vassal state is also nominally the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

It's just No one is serious.

Now, in the name of protecting Daming's vassal state and territory, Lu Li led the army to occupy Danang, which is completely aboveboard and justifiable. No one can refute it.

Does King Annan disagree? You don't recognize that this is a Daming vassal state or a Daming territory? Are you going to rebel?

That's just right. Ten thousand troops stationed in Da Nang are still idle! Do you want to see if Daming's guns are sharp?

Danang is only the first step. In the north of Jinlan Bay and in the south of Zhancheng (Mekong Delta), we need to open up bases and garrison troops to protect the territory of the Ming Dynasty!
