Longevity Begins with Jinyiwei - Chapter 690

【Longevity starts from Jinyiwei】【】

The navy of Daheng was restructured, with four main navies and two navy patrol battalions. The fundamental purpose of such a huge navy scale was naturally to keep up with the rhythm of the era of great navigation.

We are preparing for Daheng’s complete march to the ocean. At the same time, Daheng’s increasingly prosperous maritime trade business also needs a strong navy to rely on, so as to deter the night, so as to ensure the smooth flow of maritime trade and ensure the ocean of Daheng. The strategy was successfully implemented.

But these are just the obvious functions.

In any era, any ruling order and any policy implemented must consider a fundamental factor that cannot be ignored.

That is domination!

Policies must not endanger national governance, and this is also true in Daheng today.

The restructuring of the navy is to move towards the ocean, to stabilize maritime trade and commerce, and to increase the country’s fiscal and tax revenue.

But it is undeniable that the center of sea trade lies in the south, and the center of gravity of the navy also lies in the south.

In this way, it is very obvious that it is completely inconsistent with the fundamental rule of the strong and the weak.

I am afraid that the navy is directly under the center, but the navy is far away in the south of the Yangtze River, and the center of the imperial court is in the north. If things go on like this, the court’s control over the navy will inevitably weaken, and the army of the navy will inevitably evolve into a weak and strong force. Branch Bureau.

Even though there are many ways to restrain the navy, this is an inevitable issue that must be considered.

fo

Therefore, there is a situation in which the Bohai Sea Division is located in Tianjin.

No matter how important the functions and strategic significance of other navies are, no matter how important their functions and strategic significance are, in the end, they are not as important as the Bohai Sea navy guarding the sea and borders of the capital!

The Bohai Sea Division is located in Tianjin, Tianjin Prefecture is under Beizhili, and Tianjin Ship Division is directly under the center. It is only two or three days away from the capital.

In this way, even though the Bohai Sea navy and the other three major navy masters are equal in name, in fact, whether it is the emperor or the center of the imperial court, they all regard the Bohai sea navy as the Beijing army navy.

It is an important part of maintaining strong stems and weak branches!

Therefore, if it is said that the Daheng Marine Division, the most powerful one, was in the south of the Yangtze River, and after the reform of the Daheng Marine Division, the distribution of other naval divisions, whether it is warships, ordnance, and generals, can be said to be slow, but Only the Bohai Sea Master, from the beginning of the restructuring, has been changing rapidly with rapid changes.

The scale of its establishment is also second to none among the major navy divisions in Daheng. According to the navy restructuring regulations, the scale of the Bohai Sea division is more than double that of other navy divisions!

As the sea gateway of the capital, Tianjin Port is the shipping company of Tianjin Municipality and the North-South shipping hub, but in fact, Tianjin Port is also a huge military fortress.

Just the fort against the sea, in this port of Tianjin, there are nearly a hundred large and small, and these forts are not under the jurisdiction of the navy, or the Tianjin prefecture, or even the Tianjin Guard, but directly by a battalion of elites. The battalion, that is, Tianjin Haiwei Battalion is stationed there.

In Tianjin, the rivers leading to the capital, the official roads, also have layers of cards and are heavily guarded.

As the shipping becomes more prosperous, whether it is the emperor or the civil and military affairs of the court, more and more attention is paid to Tianjin, the gateway to the capital.

Those courtiers in the court, if they say they understand the new era, are still lacking, but if they talk about centralized rule, strong and weak branches, and prevention of wrongdoing, the courtiers in the court can be described as consummate.

Even the emperor, in many cases, has borrowed these methods from the courtiers.

Bohai Sea Mariner, Tianjin Left and Right Guards, Haiwei Camp, Tianjin Prefecture, Tianjin Shipping Division…

Obviously, in this small area of ​​Tianjin House, under the attention of the imperial court, the balance is not uncomplicated.

“What was the tax revenue of Tianjin Shipping Division last year?”

Looking around, the emperor seemed to remember something, and suddenly asked.

Huang Wen immediately replied: “Reporting to Your Majesty, the Tianjin Shipping Division received nearly 1.38 million yuan from customs duties last year, and a total of 1.3 million yuan was turned over to the national treasury, of which 60,000 yuan was approved by the court and was used for port expansion. 7,200 yuan is the daily consumption of Shibo Company…”

The Son of Heaven asked, “Has paper money now completely replaced silver taels?”

“Reporting to Your Majesty, according to the regulations of the General Administration of Ships, since the eighth year of Zhaowu, all sea trade transactions will be settled in paper money. Therefore, in the Department of Ships, they are all paper money. In other parts of Tianjin Prefecture, there are still a lot of silver coins in the private sector. Circulation of copper coins…”

The emperor nodded, looked around the port, and finally settled on the merchant ship docked on the sea surface of the port.

The distinction between Hua and Yi is clearly reflected in every place, even in ships.

Whether it is a warship or a merchant ship, there are extremely obvious differences between Daheng and Xiyi.

The most obvious difference is the word “li”.

The pavilions and pavilions, the unique beauty of the Han civilization, are very different from those of the Western Yi.

After his eyes were fixed for a moment, the emperor asked again: “Xiyi is trading in Daheng, is there any difference?”

“Most of the Xiyi have no etiquette and are barbaric and rude. The current imperial regulations stipulate that there are delimited areas for business in the Xiyi, which cannot be crossed. There are also strict registration and control measures for the merchant ships of the Xiyi to dock…”

“Although there are occasional violations, it is still generally abiding by the rules.”

The Son of Heaven chuckled, and Xiyi followed the rules, which was undoubtedly a joke.

If it weren’t for these years, the Daheng navy roamed the coastal waters, fought several naval battles, and beat Xiyi to the ground, how could Xiyi be so honest.

Even so, outside the scope of Daheng’s navy’s activities, there are not a few of Daheng’s merchant ships who were looted by Xiyi.

If they can’t beat them, they will trade for merchant ships. If they can beat them, they will plunder the colonies for the army.

This set, in Xiyi, has already matured and become a system.

The wonderful system of the East India Company has long been mature and sound.

Xiyi merchant ships run rampant in the world, almost unimpeded, and they are the king and hegemony. It is also here in Daheng. In the past, it was blocked by the former Ming Dynasty, and now Daheng ~www.mtlnovel.com~ has beaten Daheng many times. Only when he was honest, he could only choose to abide by the rules and order of Daheng.

Thinking of this, the emperor couldn’t help shaking his head. The thinking of the heaven and the kingdom is still too heavy. Although Daheng is now in contact with overseas, he has too much prejudice and too much pride. Those who are really willing to look overseas are still too much. Too little too little.

The most helpless thing for the emperor is that he does not want to look abroad, but it is not because of the seclusion and self-confidence of the Qing Dynasty in later generations, but just because he is too arrogant and regards Daheng as barbarians, not worth mentioning. .

Even if the emperor pays attention, it is of no use at all.

After all, for Wenwu, reality is reality.

But now, the reality is that Xiyi has been beaten by Daheng many times, and has no power to fight back.

The idea of ​​guarding one-third of one acre of land to live on, seems to be the mainstream thought of scholars.

As for Wu Xun, his energy now is all in the north and southwest, and few people can spare the energy to pay attention to overseas.

Moreover, the navy, after all, is only a rising star, and the main body of Daheng’s martial arts is still the generals who conquered the Quartet on land.

Even Li Dingguo, the leader of naval martial arts, was a land military general who became a monk halfway through.

Obviously, under the influence of these factors, if it weren’t for the current customs tariffs, it has become the most important tax revenue for the imperial court. No matter how overseas, it will not even appear in the center of the imperial court, and it will not cause the slightest disturbance.

Just like in the former Ming Dynasty, the Fujian navy fought back the Xiyi many times, but in the former Ming Dynasty hall, there was no disturbance at all…
