Tian Guizi still needs to complete a series of finishing work on the Yellow River project and has to return to Kaifeng, while Su Yonglin returns directly to Zhongdu from Binzhou.
After all, the capital of the Ming Dynasty was in Zhongdu, not Kaifeng, and Su Yonglin really needed to return to Zhongdu soon to arrange the upcoming campaign to go south to destroy the Song Dynasty.
A battle that will undoubtedly be won without any controversy.
Having said that, there is also something to be said for how to bury the decadent, reactionary court and its ideals faster, better and more cost-effectively.
The Ming army needed to use the power of a mountain to crush the Jiangnan Kingdom to death in one breath, until it could no longer die, then crush the bones and scatter the ashes, and then put the ashes into cannons and shoot them out, so as to drive away evil spirits from the Jiangnan land.
When Su Yonglin returned to Zhongdu, he recalled Lin Jingchun who was working at Quanzhou Port.
After learning about Su Yonglin's recall, Lin Jingchun knew that something was wrong. He was afraid that something big was going to happen. After he hurried back to Zhongdu, he found that it was indeed something big.
Su Yonglin expressed that he would personally lead his troops south to the south of the Yangtze River to destroy the Jiangnan Kingdom, reunify the Chinese state, and completely end the divided governance of the Chinese state.
In this regard, there are many people who support it, but relatively few people who oppose it.
The reasons for those who oppose it are just the same.
One is that Su Yonglin's status is noble and important, and he is the Optimus Prime of the Ming Dynasty. It is unsafe to run around, and now he has to lead troops to fight, which is even more unsafe. Therefore, they firmly oppose it and hope that Su Yonglin will always be a good person from birth to death. They are all in the Zhongdu Palace and will never come out.
Another person thinks that although the Yellow River Project was successfully completed and everyone was very happy, a war would break out just after the Yellow River Project was completed, and the emperor would have to personally conquer it. Is this a bit exaggerated?
Su Yonglin disagreed with both of these statements and refuted them, insisting that he wanted to "conquer personally".
Then he caught Lin Jingchun and asked.
"The total amount of preparations for the Yellow River Project is about 50 billion yuan. Now only 40 billion yuan has been used to complete the entire project. The surplus of 10 billion yuan should belong to the current idle funds. Money will not make big money. When the court gets money, it should choose the right place to spend it instead of holding it in hand."
Lin Jingchun knew that Su Yonglin must be eyeing the 10 billion yuan when he called him back.
The completion of the Yellow River Project ahead of schedule is indeed a big surprise.
Moreover, during the construction process, the project headquarters scrimped on food and clothing, and went to the extreme in all audit work. They also constantly created new working methods to save the budget, and solved some costly problems at very low prices. matter.
After the entire project was completed, the pioneering work of the project headquarters and some workers made great contributions to reducing the scheduled expenditure by one-fifth of the entire project.
Based on this, Lin Jingchun felt that he had to treat Tian Guizi to a meal after he came back, or even kiss him a few times.
But then again, after this, everyone knew that the 10 billion money existed. Su Yonglin took this as the confidence to launch a campaign southward.
Lin Jingchun was not opposed to going south, but he felt that no matter how hard this war was fought, it would cost less than 10 billion. Part of it could be used to fight the war, and the rest could be used to build the post-war Jiangnan economy.
"It is true that these 10 billion dollars are still in the accounts of the Ministry of Finance and can be used flexibly. But to go south to attack Jiangnan Kingdom, will we need 10 billion dollars in military expenditures? It won't be that much at all, right?"
Sun Ziyi of the Privy Council gave a relatively safe military budget for the war. It does not cost that much, and it is still far from that much.
The two main battle corps, the First Corps and the Seventh Corps, are both in Jiangnan. If they attack from all sides, they don't need to spend much supplies at all.
At most, Su Yonglin could lead a force south from Zhongdu and fight directly towards Hangzhou. It would probably be a smooth push all the way without encountering any difficulties.
Therefore, this battle should be a crushing victory, so there were not many people in the entire court who opposed it. After all, no one thought that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty personally led the troops south and could not clean up a fragmented and internally penetrated country that was like a sieve. Jiangnan country.
That is really the greatest absurdity in the world.
At the State Council, the resolution on going south to completely attack Jiangnan and unify Jiangnan within the year was passed smoothly without any obstacles.
Subsequently, Su Yonglin transferred the specific operations to the staff headquarters, and the intelligence organization Tianwang Army and the Privy Council logistics personnel were allowed to participate in the military meeting to discuss the specific strategies and tactics of this march.
Among them, a lot of information given by the Skynet Army is quite interesting.
For example, before the war started, the central court of the Ming Dynasty had just passed a resolution to go south to attack Jiangnan Kingdom. The entire Jiangnan Kingdom had actually fallen into semi-madness. Many people, especially the ministers in the DPRK, had already formed groups to discuss the matter. How to moisturize the army after it goes south?
Some people are preparing to benefit Korea, some are preparing to benefit Japan, some are preparing to benefit Jiangnan, and some are preparing to flee to the countryside of Lingnan to remain anonymous.
Really, the Ming Dynasty has just passed a resolution and is preparing to formulate a tactical plan. It is still thousands of miles away from sending troops, and an escape route has been prepared over there.
It’s really just “flying generals” and “long-legged generals” per capita.
There are a lot of people ready to moisten it. Anyway, there are not many people who want to stay and defend Hangzhou to coexist with the country. When Jiangnan Kingdom has reached this point, it can be considered the end.
Oh, by the way, there is one, the Privy Councilor of Jiangnan Kingdom, Zhang Shi.
He had previously terminated the cooperation with the Ming instructors through the terms of the military contract, causing the Ming instructors to withdraw from the Song army. It is said that some officials in Hangzhou admired him very much. At the same time, it also triggered the Ming staff There was dissatisfaction among some within Headquarters and the Privy Council.
Now, he publicly declared that he would live and die with Hangzhou and his Song Dynasty, and called on officials to stay and fight to the death for the country to repay the emperor's kindness.
The fucking emperor has given you all the trouble to lose his imperial title and is still under house arrest in the palace. You are here shouting to repay the emperor's kindness?
Is it reimbursement or reimbursement?
These are not important, the main reason is that the name Zhang Shi makes everyone very unhappy, so as soon as they hear this name, many military personnel from the Ming Dynasty sneer on their faces, ready to give Zhang Shi a good look.
"He wants to live and die with the country so much, then we can meet his needs."
"This is a need I've never heard in my life."
"A new recruit of 50,000 who has never been on the battlefield wants to compete with my elite army of 200,000? Is he crazy or am I crazy?"
"This is not an ordinary Privy Councilor. We must punch him hard and punch him into the ground!"
Seeing the officials of the Ming Dynasty gearing up, Su Yonglin remained calm, but he really wanted to laugh.
What Zhang Shi did as a deep water wolf was so successful that he was hated by his real teammates and admired by his real enemies. For this, Su Yonglin really wanted to thank Zhang Jun.
Although he has been confused for most of his life, his two sons are really not confused at all.
So Su Yonglin stopped the officials' harsh words.
"Strategically, we despise our opponents and tactically, we value our opponents. Any opponent who dares to show his sword to our army has the same courage as our army. Facing opponents with the same courage, we must pay attention to them and must not underestimate them. he!"
Su Yonglin said sternly: "I emphasize again and again that weakness and ignorance are never the reasons for the destruction of a country, arrogance is! You should be vigilant every day! Don't be arrogant!"
"Here!"
All the participating officials agreed in unison, and then began to seriously plan tactics.
