Chapter 1463 Zhang Jing’s second test (Part 2)
“Well, what do you think is the first priority for the plan to destroy the Japanese?” Zhang Jing looked at Zhu Pingan with burning eyes and asked again.
Zhang Jing also asked Hu Zongxian this question last time. Hu Zongxian’s answer at that time was: mobilize troops, mobilize troops, or mobilize troops.
Hu Zongxian regarded the deployment of troops as the first and most urgent task in destroying the Japanese. If the Japanese were to be destroyed, the troops must be mobilized.
Zhang Jing is looking forward to Zhu Pingan's answer to see if Zhu Pingan has any unique insights into the current strategies to control Japanese invaders.
"The lower official believes that the first priority in the plan to destroy the Japanese is unified command!" Zhu Pingan said without hesitation.
"Unified command?" Zhang Jing was slightly startled. To be honest, Zhu Pingan's answer was a bit beyond his expectation.
"Or rather appoint the governor." Zhu Pingan said softly.
“Where do you come from?” Zhang Jing asked with interest.
"Nowadays, the Japanese pirates are getting worse day by day. Countless Japanese pirates gather and disperse suddenly, wreaking havoc in the south of the Yangtze River. From Shandong Province in the north to Guangdong Province in the south, they are all within the scope of the Japanese pirates' ravages. The provincial power is limited, and the Japanese pirates are roaming around and committing crimes. It is difficult for the province alone to eradicate the Japanese pirates, and it is even difficult to fight and resist the Japanese pirates. In this case, if we want to eradicate the Japanese pirates, we must It is necessary to coordinate the troops and supplies in Shandong, South Zhili, Zhejiang, Fujian Province, Guangdong and other provinces, unified command, gather forces, deploy troops and generals, and destroy the Japanese pirates. In addition, our current military system in Jiangnan makes it difficult to effectively concentrate our forces to destroy the Japanese pirates. , now patrolling the sea has no responsibility to manage the army, no flags and flags on the river to fight against the Japanese, no Japanese soldiers to prepare military talisman, and no officer has ever fought in the war. To fight against the enemy, the militiamen have no regular training personnel except for lower-level officials, and there is no other valuable source of military supplies. Therefore, unified command is imperative. The only way to achieve unified command is to appoint a governor to appoint the governor of Zhejiang. No, in these extraordinary times, extraordinary things should be done. The governor of Zhejiang is far from enough. The governor of Jiangnan should be appointed. The governors include southern Zhili, Zhejiang, Shandong, and Fujian. Jian, Guangdong, Guangxi and other places were given all military and financial powers within the governor-general's jurisdiction. They had the power to coordinate the distribution of money, food and supplies in the jurisdiction, and had the power to command and mobilize the military forces of the provinces within the jurisdiction to unite the efforts of each province to fight and destroy Japanese pirates under unified command. The appointment of the governor of Jiangnan is a matter of human wisdom, and the subordinates think that this is the first priority to eliminate the Japanese. "
Zhu Ping'an looked at Zhang Jing and spoke slowly. Although his voice was not loud, it was loud and deafening.
"Governor of Jiangnan, governor of Zhili, Zhejiang, Shandong, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi and other places' military affairs."
Hearing this, Zhang Jing couldn't help but took a breath, and Governor of Jiangnan Zhu Ping'an also Too daring to think Well, the jurisdiction of the Governor of Jiangnan occupies half of the Ming Dynasty. It is also the most prosperous place in the Ming Dynasty. The power of the Governor of Jiangnan is also too great. He has the military power equivalent to half of the Ming Dynasty. The word "high position" and "power" is not enough. To describe the governor of Jiangnan.
Although Zhang Jing also thought about appointing a governor, he only felt that he should appoint the governor of the province of Zhejiang, or at most the governor of Zhejiang and Zhili, and the governor of Zhejiang and South Zhili. Just save. Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the most we have done is appoint governors to manage the military affairs of two provinces.
How dare you imagine that the Holy Emperor would appoint a governor to manage half of the Ming Dynasty provinces, including Zhili, Zhejiang, Shandong, Fujian, Guangdong, and Guangxi.
Zhang Jing didn't dare to think about it.
So, when Zhu Pingan said this, Zhang Jing couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
"Ahem, Mr. Zhu, you are still too young, and you are a bit fanciful. The governor of Jiangnan is impossible. From ancient times to the present, there has never been such a high-ranking and powerful governor."
< br>Zhang Jing coughed, waved his hand, and said bluntly.
Faced with Zhang Jing’s doubts and denials, Zhu Ping’an remained calm and calm, insisting softly, “Maybe it’s because Xiaguan is too young, but it has never happened in ancient times, which doesn’t mean it won’t happen in the future. Xiaguan thinks Appointing a governor in this way can achieve twice the result with half the effort and eliminate Japanese pirates in the fastest, best and most stable manner. ”
The reason why Zhu Pingan is so persistent is because he comes from modern times and is well aware of the development and evolution of history.
Historically, Emperor Jiajing will soon appoint the "Zheji Zhi" governor, whose jurisdiction covers half of the Ming Dynasty provinces such as Zhili, Zhejiang, Shandong, Fujian, Guangdong, and Guangxi, and holds half of the Ming Dynasty. Military power.
The "Zhejiang" governor who Emperor Jiajing is about to appoint is the actual governor of Jiangnan, and his jurisdiction is exactly the same as the governor of Jiangnan mentioned by Zhu Pingan.
The reason why Zhu Ping'an mentioned the governor of Jiangnan and not the governor of Zhejiang is because the "Governor of Zhejiang" literally means the governor of the two provinces of Zhejiang and South Zhili. The reason why he has jurisdiction over Shandong, Half of the Ming provinces including Fujian, Guangdong, and Guangxi were specially approved by Emperor Jiajing, who was actually the governor of Jiangnan.
Now when it comes to appointing the governor-general of Zhejiang Province, without the special approval of Emperor Jiajing, he will be the governor-general of Zhejiang and Southern Zhili Provinces, and his jurisdiction is only the two provinces of Zhejiang and Southern Zhili.
Only after Emperor Jiajing specially approved the jurisdiction of the "Zhejiang" governor-general, the governor-general of Zhejiang could govern Shandong, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi and other provinces.
When Emperor Jiajing decrees the establishment of a governor-general of Zhejiang Province in the future, and specifically stipulates that his jurisdiction will be southern Zhili, Shandong, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi and other provinces, the governor-general of Zhejiang Province will be the de facto governor-general of Jiangnan. Yes, I said it was right to appoint the Governor of Jiangnan, but it would be wrong to appoint the Governor of Zhejiang Province now.
So, Zhu Pingan said that he was the governor of Jiangnan.
Insisting on one's own opinion now may leave an impression that Hu Zongxian is too young and takes things for granted.
But!
Zhu Ping'an believed that after Emperor Jiajing appointed Zhang Jing as the governor of Zhejiang Province, Zhang Jing would be shocked and his scalp would be numb when he thought about what he said today, and his image would suddenly shine brightly in his mind. At that time, I will definitely leave an unforgettable impression in Zhang Jing's heart.
Zhu Ping'an is a good guy, he is a god at predicting things.
This is similar to suppressing and reversing desire, and the impression left behind will be even more profound. .
This day will come soon.
According to historical records, in as little as three to five days, or as slowly as ten days and a half, Emperor Jiajing would issue an imperial edict and appoint Zhang Jing as the governor of Zhejiang Province, with jurisdiction over Zhili, Zhejiang, Shandong, Fujian, and Guangdong. In the provinces of half of the Ming Dynasty, such as Guangxi and Guangxi, Zhang Jing could directly dispatch troops in Shandong, Southern Zhili, Huguang, Guangdong and Guangxi and other jurisdictions, without going through the cabinet or asking the emperor for instructions. At that time, if Zhang Jing wants to mobilize the Guangxi wolf soldiers, it will only be a matter of one sentence and one article.
Young, still young. It is a good thing for young people to have confidence, but confidence must be realistic.
Seeing Zhu Pingan's persistence, Zhang Jing shook his head slightly in his heart, and his score for Zhu Pingan's answer this time was not as high as the previous question.
It is necessary to appoint a governor, but the governor of Jiangnan is a bit taken for granted
Hu Zongxian's answer to this question, Zhang Jing scored a few points higher than Zhu Ping'an. (End of this chapter)
