    Yu Guozhen did not vigorously pursue the officials of the old dynasty in order to reduce the resistance of officials under Zhang Xianzhong and Liu Zongmin. He is now ready to unify China and carry out comprehensive construction, which can be said to be urgent.

    Over the past five years, he has accumulated technology, funds and talents, and is quite well prepared.

    He did not give these old officials much time to discuss, and then came the resettlement of the Jurchens.  The Jurchens were separated according to their respective tribes and were all placed in various parts of Toad Island - what Europeans called Australia.

    Based on Faxian City, four years ago, Chinese forces began to arrive in Toad Island. After a battle with crocodiles, poisonous jellyfish and other ferocious animals in Toad Island, they completed the inspection of strongholds around Toad Island.  The natives of Toad Island were very primitive and posed almost no threat to them, but it was an unexpected surprise to meet the colonists from the United Kingdom. After a brief conflict, this group of colonists, mainly gangsters and exiled prisoners,  They became the first batch of hard workers in China to open up Toad Island.

    Toad Island is not very suitable for agriculture, but the development of animal husbandry is quite good, especially the islands in the southeast, which are a paradise for animal husbandry.  Exile the Jurchens to these places, and divide them so that each group has only a few people, controlling their size, and at the same time allowing them to serve as pioneers.

    This can be regarded as the Jurchens¡¯ atonement for China¡¯s uprising.

    The approval rate for these two measures was 91%. This time Yu Guozhen did not arrange the voting results in advance.

    After completing this item, the fifth item follows.  Regarding unified strategy.  Nowadays, in China, besides Huaxia, there are three Han political powers, namely Zhang Xianzhong's Daxi, Liu Zongmin's Dashun and Li Yan's Chuangjun.  These three regimes all sent people to participate in Yu Guozhen's national unification conference and expressed their willingness to accept the five-year unification plan. However, in fact, except that Li Yan was indeed preparing for the five-year unification plan, what Zhang Xianzhong and Liu Zongmin did  .  They are still trying to separate themselves.

    However, after Yu Guozhen wiped out the Niu Jinxing forces with lightning speed, Zhang Xianzhong and Liu Zongmin lost all hope of luck, and they began to consider their options.  And got hints from Yu Guozhen.  Li Yan also actively contacted them. Li Yan revealed the agreement he had reached with Yu Guozhen, that is, he would lead his army to attack the former Hami Guards west of Yumen Pass.  Liu Zongmin and Zhang Xianzhong were also tempted by the idea of ??regaining their homeland in China in exchange for Yu Guozhen letting go of the past.  Liu Zongmin's target was Tubo, and he entered Tibet via Qinghai, while Zhang Xianzhong chose the southwest countries, taking the Ancient Tea Horse Road, to find China's land outlet to the Indian Ocean.

    In the past three years, Li Yan has made great achievements. He has even taken control of the Turpan Basin and is exploring Congling.  Here there were conflicts with Kokand and other countries as well as the rising Junggar people.  Liu Zongmin and Zhang Xianzhong also gained something, but their progress made Yu Guozhen very dissatisfied.

    "Therefore, the first choice for unifying China is still force. Li Yan, Liu Zongmin and Zhang Xianzhong must gradually hand over the land they hold, and the central government will dispatch soldiers and officials to take over. In exchange, the central government can provide them with sufficient logistical supplies.  , the amount is determined based on their actual number, and will increase or decrease based on the land and population they return to the center. In other words, the more land and population they return to the center, the more support they can get from the center. This is  Final ultimatum. Negotiations on this principle are not allowed. Therefore, I decided to form the Northwest Army, with Tian Boguang as the governor-general of the Northwest Army, the Qinghai-Tibet Army, Qi Niu as the governor-general of the Qinghai-Tibet Army, the Southwest Army, and Ye Wuya as the Southwest Army.  The Governor-General's Army will continue to exert pressure on the three parties to force them to accept our conditions."

    Although Yu Guozhen's words were still calm when he said this, everyone in the room almost sat upright in unison, because everyone could hear the murderous intention in Yu Guozhen's words.

    If Liu Zongmin and Zhang Xianzhong still don¡¯t know what they are doing, it is obvious that what awaits them will be a desperate situation with soldiers approaching!

    The total regular strength of the Huaxia Army is about 300,000, plus about 500,000 armed militiamen and 2 million ordinary militiamen. The formation of three major legions does not even require any mobilization.  Moreover, based on China's weapons research capabilities, at least from the military parade just now, it is not difficult for everyone to judge that the equipment of the Chinese army has made new progress.

    "In addition, form the Northern Army, with Wang Haoran as the governor-general of the Northern Army, to prepare for the war with the Rakshasa people. The three armies have extremely harsh fighting environments, such as the desert in the northwest, the plateau of Qinghai-Tibet, the dense forests and mountains in the southwest, and the  In the tundra, the four governor-general armies must be fully prepared to minimize non-combat attrition due to environmental reasons."

    Yu Guozhen must not deny that for the four major armies,The real enemy is not their opponents, but the harsh natural environment.  At the same time, this approach of attacking from all sides is also a great test for the newly established national strength of China. Among the former Ming officials present, some were muttering in a low voice that "the military was forced to depose" and "the lessons from Sui Yang's disaster are not far away." Ma Shiying  I looked back, but couldn't find who was saying that.

    He could only smile bitterly. He originally thought that he had tried his best to cooperate with Yu Guozhen in the past few years, and that Yu Guozhen would give him a suitable position, at least as a secondary assistant in the cabinet. However, he did not expect that this would be the outcome for him.

    At this time, he secretly regretted in his heart. If he had resisted resolutely at the beginning, he might have gained a name in history, but now it was too late to look back. Yu Guozhen had already controlled everything, and it might even cause him trouble in the end.  The Jiangnan gentry was also stopped with the cooperation of Ma Shiying and others.

    As for the question of how to deal with these gentry, Ma Shiying has not received an answer until now.

    Yu Guozhen¡¯s fifth national policy was quickly passed in the vote. This referendum was very new to everyone, so although the voting for the fifth national policy had ended, everyone was still unwilling to disperse.  Seeing them like this, Yu Guozhen smiled and said: "It seems that everyone still feels that they are still unfinished, and so do I Taking this opportunity, I would also like to share with you my views on China's future."

    Everyone¡¯s eyes lit up when they heard this, especially the old ministers of the former dynasty.  I was very disappointed today and was thinking about how to make things right. When I heard what Yu Guozhen said, I felt that I had an excellent opportunity to figure out what I meant, and all of them pricked up their ears.

    "Frankly speaking, I am not very happy when I ascend the throne today, but I am very worried." Yu Guozhen said: "Although I did not treat the emperor's clan very well in the previous dynasty, I did not dare to persecute it. Because I always thought, two or three hundred  Years from now, the descendants of me, Yu Guozhen, will also become members of the subjugated clan. Today I am sowing good deeds, and I only hope that they will bear good fruits then."

    As soon as these words came out, everyone was in a commotion. On this happy day, he mentioned the destruction of the country and the genocide. Yu Guozhen really had no taboos!

    "Impossible, the Chinese Dynasty will last for eternity!"

    "Exactly, Your Majesty, there is no need to worry, the Chinese Army will always be loyal to Your Majesty and to Your Majesty's descendants!"

    Someone below expressed loyalty. Yu Guozhen smiled and made gestures to suppress his voice: "Such flattery. Needless to say, there has been no dynasty for thousands of years since ancient times. After Qin unified China, we look at the past dynasties, Qin II  Let¡¯s not talk about the death of the dynasty. The Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty add up to only four hundred years, the Jin Dynasty is less than a hundred years, the Sui Dynasty is also the second generation, the Tang Dynasty is less than three hundred years, and the northern and southern Song Dynasties add up to just over three hundred years. The Ming Dynasty has more than 200 years.  Years Frankly speaking, it is already remarkable that the Chinese Dynasty I founded can be spread for three hundred years."

    Listening to him enumerate the dynasties of the past dynasties one by one, everyone became quiet, and some people had to start to really think about Yu Guozhen's meaning.

    "The reason why the previous dynasty was unable to break out of the cycle of alternation between law and chaos, I secretly believe, is on the one hand the reason for the court, and on the other hand the reason for the common people. In the court, there might be someone who monopolized power and dominated the government, or a group of parties would join together to fight against dissidents.  , or the emperor, or the vassal town, from the emperor and the ministers to the local officials and subordinates, all of them put their minds on the fight for power and profit, and they did not hesitate to sacrifice the overall situation, regardless of the life and death of the people. The people were afraid of things and loved their hometown, because they were afraid of things,  Therefore, the evil gentry and subordinates can collude and oppress them without fear of their appeals. Because they love their hometown, floods, droughts, and famine are not enough to make them move around. When they can't bear it anymore, the grievances accumulated over the years will get out of hand.  , so destroy everything, destroy everything, good and bad, and the jade will be broken into pieces."

    Yu Guozhen¡¯s analysis is still very superficial, but it is already the limit that he can allow these people to accept.  When he said this, he paused for a moment, and then said: "Therefore, I intend to use it for thirty or forty years to try to change these two disadvantages. I divide these thirty or forty years into four stages,  The first is the time to detect malpractices, the second is the time to correct errors, the third is the time to discipline government, and the fourth is the time to constitutional government. Everyone must know that when it comes to detecting malpractices and correcting mistakes, as for the discipline of government, it is not because I want to be the Supreme Emperor.  , but I want to achieve a balance between the three powers of monarchy, ministerial power and civil rights. Constitutionalism is to fix this balance in the form of a national constitution and pass it on to future generations, which cannot be easily modified."

    Yu Guozhen's confession was like a thunder to the officials of the old dynasty, especially to Chongzhen, who felt even more shocked: What kind of emperor is the emperor if he can't hold great power?

    Especially when all the ministers have their own selfish motives, the only one in the world who can think about the world is the emperor himself. Wouldn't it be a big mistake to hand over power to the ministers?

    Chongzhen could hardly bear it and asked Yu Guozhen to clear up his doubts in front of hundreds of people, no matter who else!  Ma Shiying, Qian Qianyi and others knew that Yu Guozhen always spoke truthfully and considered the problem in the long term. Yu Guozhen's words gave them a glimmer of hope after their initial disappointment - twenty or thirty years ago, HuaWhen they enter political training and constitutional government, perhaps their students can regain power!

    Perhaps only a few people have noticed that Yu Guozhen emphasized the balance between monarchy, ministerial power and civil rights, not just monarchy and ministerial power.  There is simply no balance between monarchy and ministerial power. On the one hand, the monarch needs to give his ministers the power to govern the country, but on the other hand, he is afraid that the ministers will take away all their power. In order to suppress the ministers, he often relies on the power of his relatives and eunuchs to restrict them.  , this will form another force that also belongs to the ministers to rise, or it will cause constant party disputes among the ministers.  But if civil rights are introduced to supervise the ministers and form a powerful force among the three powers, then the Chinese dynasty will be much more stable.

    Naturally, this is just his idea. There is never a perfect political system. All he can do is to make this idea as consistent as possible with China's national conditions and needs.

    Yu Guozhen was still unfinished and was about to continue talking when he suddenly heard a commotion outside. His expression did not change, but his interest in the conversation faded. After a while, someone handed over a note. Yu Guozhen glanced at the words on the note.  content, with a sarcastic look on his face.

    "I couldn't bear it anymore after all" He murmured, and then raised the note: "The students from the former dynasty are now gathering outside, carrying the statue of Confucius, to petition me!"
