Zhu Yijun explained his strategic goals to Qi Jin, then said with a smile, "You did a good job in the Japanese Empire. I believe that you can do a good job this time."
"Your Majesty, rest assured that I will not let Your Majesty down!" Qi Jin nodded and bowed.
In fact, the Daming had never taken the war in the south seriously. Since ancient times, the Northern Frontier had been the main enemy of the Central Plains Dynasty. They had never heard that the south could cause any big trouble.
Even if there were a lot of things, and there were a lot of trouble, so what?
The Central Plains Dynasty had never put them in their eyes.
It had been like this since ancient times!
Now the Daming was unprecedentedly powerful. From the south to the north, from the land to the sea, the Daming were all powerful. No matter who they fought, they would lose.
Under such circumstances, how could the Daming put the monkeys in the southern woods in their eyes? Yes, even the people of the Daming thought that they were uncivilized monkeys.
Under such circumstances, Qi Jin was not worried about any accidents. The Japanese pirates of the Japanese Empire were beaten like that, not to mention these people over there.
Zhu Yijun would not interfere too much with the war because he believed that Qi Jin could win. Zhu Yijun only needed to tell Qi Jin the strategic goal and nothing else.
How to fight, Qi Jin knew better than him. Besides, the battlefield was changing rapidly, and he could not go to the front line.
After sending away Qi Jin, Zhu Yijun could not stay in Nanjing anymore. He was going to Song Jiang Mansion.
Zhu Yijun was very interested in Song Jiang Mansion. There was a new shipyard of the Daming. Zhu Yijun was going to go there to take a look.
Yu Zhigao was also building the second fleet of the Daming Royal Navy there.
Anyway, there was nothing to do in Nanjing. Zhu Yijun was going to take a look.
However, Zhu Yijun couldn't leave at will. He could only wait patiently. In the process, the people from the Royal Hospital arrived.
These people were treasures. They took medicine and settled down in Nanjing. When Liu Wei's army arrived, they would follow the army south.
In the Imperial Family's Martial Lecture Hall, there was actually a military doctor. Daming had also begun to have military doctors, but most of these military doctors were proficient in treating injuries on the battlefield.
This time, there was a war on the other side, and there were many cases of diarrhea and miasma. Zhu Yijun had no choice but to dispatch doctors from the Royal Academy of Medicine over.
There was also the Golden Pheasant Frost, which Zhu Yijun had been cultivating for a long time.
When Zhu Yijun sent people to the south to collect seeds, he specifically mentioned the Golden Pheasant Frost to Dongchang. Compared to others, Zhu Yijun knew the value of the Golden Pheasant Frost.
Although the wormwood could also treat dysentery, the Golden Pheasant Frost was regarded as a special medicine in this era.
After cultivating it for so many years, it was finally time to put it to use. There was also the first batch of Hundred Waves Multiple Breaths produced by the small pharmaceutical factory established by Li Shizen.
Although this thing was effective, there were also many side effects. However, on the battlefield, it couldn't be cared too much. If there was a chance of survival and not certain death, it would basically be used.
In the war in the south, medical care was very, very important. Once the medical care couldn't keep up, it would be over.
Liu Wei's army soon arrived. 30,000 soldiers were ready to go. Zhu Yijun also saw Liu Wei.
"Subject Liu Wei greets Your Majesty!" After walking into the main hall, Liu Wei hurriedly knelt down and paid his respects.
Zhu Yijun nodded. When Liu Wei stood up, Zhu Yijun slowly opened his mouth and said, "Seeing you today, This Emperor is also quite emotional!
This Emperor ascended the throne at a young age, and every day, I trembled with fear. Fortunately, with the assistance of famous officials and generals, I didn't make any mistakes, and only then could I Daming's power and prosperity today. "
"Nowadays, the Imperial Court is very gracious to those who have made great contributions, but This Emperor often thinks of some people, and sometimes feels sorry for these old people."
"Among them, There are a few people that This Emperor feels the most sorry for. One is Ma Fang, you, Yu Dayou, and the last one is your father, Liu Wei." Zhu Yijun said with a sigh, "These people are all famous generals of the Daming!
Qi Jiguang was made Duke of Qi, and if they were here, they might have been made Duke of Qi! "
Zhu Yijun looked at Liu Wei and said, "Fortunately, these generals all have successors, or I would feel even more guilty."
"Ma Fang's family has the Five Tigers of the Ma Family, Yu Dayou's family has Yu Zhigao, and Liu Wei's family has you. Now, all of you are veterans on the battlefield, pillars of the nation. Good!" Zhu Yijun said with a sigh, "You have made great contributions to the Japanese Empire, so you are now Earl, right?
Commander of Ji and Liao, very good, very good. "
"Are you satisfied?"
"This subject is not satisfied!"
Liu Wei said loudly, "This subject will immediately seek the title of Marquis. This subject will not say Duke of Qi in this life, but I will definitely strive to be Marquis to comfort my father's soul in heaven."
Smiling and nodding, Zhu Yijun said with satisfaction, "Good, it's good that you have ambition. Work hard, all of you, work hard.
This time, you are going to subdue Yang Yinglong, but this is only the first step. "
Saying this, Zhu Yijun took out his map again and said, "After subduing Yang Yinglong, I will promote you to be the Commander of Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan provinces. You will command the troops of the three provinces."
"With Deng Zhilong and the Duke of Guizhou as your deputies, send troops to attack Mang Yingli. I want to destroy Mang Yingli in one battle, and at the same time, here!"
Saying this, Zhu Yijun drew a circle on the map and said, "Take all of this land for me."
Hearing Zhu Yijun's words, Liu Wei was so excited that he was shaking. He knew that this was a test for him, and at the same time, it was also a sign that he was highly valued.
It was easy to say that he was highly valued, but if he didn't, how could he give such an important responsibility to him?
It was a test because this time, the Duke of Guizhou and Deng Zhilong were both under his command, and it was a one-sided battle.
Liu Wei hurriedly knelt on the ground and said loudly, "Your Majesty, rest assured, I will do my best and will not disappoint Your Majesty."
"You have to understand that this time, it is for the commander-in-chief, not for a general. I hope that you know the difference."
"You followed Zhang Weixian to the battle, and I hope that you learned something. You have the Chieftain's troops, the Duke of Guizhou, a high-ranking Honours, and Deng Zilong, a veteran general who has been in the south for a long time. Perhaps it will take more energy to coordinate their relationship than to fight a battle."
"In the Grand Council, among the younger generation, there is only one person, Zhang Weixian. You and Qi Jin are both candidates that I am optimistic about."
Hearing Zhu Yijun's words, Liu Wei suddenly shivered, and the excitement that had just risen was instantly poured with a basin of cold water.
Although Liu Wei and his father Liu Xian had stayed here, it had been so many years, and the situation was completely different.
His Majesty was right. There was the Chieftain, the Duke of Guizhou, and Deng Zilong. This time, he was afraid that he really had to put in a lot of effort.
However, Liu Wei also knew that the Emperor was training him to be the commander-in-chief.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, I know what to do!"
This time, when he said this, Liu Wei was much more stable.
