I, Zhu Youjian: the first prodigal son of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 113 This time, it's different!

Qian Qianyi recommended Sun Chuanting.

Right now, this General Sun is still in Shangqiu Dangzhi County, and his official voice is clean and honest, so the officialdom is a bit unsatisfactory.

Not to mention, this Qian Qianyi really has vision, and the bandit suppression commander recommended by him is indeed the best candidate.

However, among the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, only Wei Zhongxian knew something in his heart...

That rebel is clearly the 'private army' of the idiot emperor Zhu Youjian, so what a fart it is!

"Where does the person recommended by Mr. Qian work?" Zhu Youjian frowned and asked, "Why have you never heard of it?"

"Your Majesty Qizuo, Sun Chuanting is currently the magistrate of Shangqiu County. He has been familiar with the art of war since he was a child. He is a clean and honest official with an excellent official voice. He is a rare young talent in our Ming Dynasty."

Qian Qianyi said seriously: "I implore Your Majesty Jian Ba ​​to appoint him."

The idiot emperor Zhu Youjian felt sad for a while, this 'water is too cold', is it 'head too itchy'?

My team, sending a bunch of idiots to conquer, is tantamount to giving away heads and acting as the captain of the transportation team.

Sending Sun Chuanting to conquer, isn't that...is it going to push Sun Chuanting, my backup general, into the pit of fire?
"The matter of suppressing thieves is just scabies, and I haven't taken it to heart yet," Zhu Youjian said with a smile, "Since this Sun Chuanting is quite capable, I might as well simply pull out one or two."

"Wei Zhongxian drafted an order to simply select Sun Chuanting as the commander of the border guards in Ningxia, allocate enough food and pay, and order him to recruit [-] cavalry, and immediately set off for Zhenyuan Pass."

Qian Qianyi was at a loss, and was speechless for a moment.

From the magistrate of Shangqiu to the commander, the span is a bit big.

From a small seventh-rank magistrate to a third-rank official with a heavy army in his hands, the emperor's "simple" is complete?

Are you kidding me?
"Your Majesty, my humble minister..." Qian Qianyi still wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Zhu Youjian waving his hand.

"The weather is getting warmer, and I want to personally conquer Goryeo. How can I not guard against those bow-legged people in the north?" Zhu Youjian said with a smile: "Let Sun Chuanting go, strengthen the defense of the Great Wall, train elite soldiers and strong generals, and when necessary, go directly to Wu Difficult to go!"

With a single word from the idiot emperor, Sun Chuanting was dispatched to the front line of the northern Great Wall, and the civil servants present seemed to have nothing to say.

There is no way, the emperor wants to make troubles, so let him make troubles.

Anyway, as long as you don't go to the south of the Yangtze River to collect taxes, increase Liao's salary, or suppress salary, it won't affect everyone's promotion and fortune, so let's take care of him.

However, the job of exterminating the Shaanxi-Gansu rebels...

Never let go!

So, just when Zhu Youjian was about to retire from the court, dozens of civil servants came out of the shift at the same time, each with a heavy face, and began to cry blood:

"Your Majesty, the old minister recommends one person, who will surely put down the bandits within half a year!"

"Your Majesty, I recommend one person, and within three months, the thief will be defeated!"

"..."

……

Well, as soon as I heard that as long as I was willing to fight against the bandits, the small magistrate of Shangqiu suddenly became a third-rank official holding military power.

The civil servants are very excited.

So, in less than a cup of tea, there were more than seventy "young talents" densely packed in Zhu Youjian's small book, and it was said that all of them were clean and talented.

Moreover, all of them are "great talents" who have been familiar with the art of war since childhood.

Zhu Youjian laughed happily, that's right.

I am a prodigal alone, and I feel that the efficiency is not enough. Now that everyone is willing to prodigal, let's lose together.

Anyway, with Mao Yuanyi guarding there, Zhu Youjian can rest assured.

"My dear friends, you are really the pillars of my Ming Dynasty," Zhu Youjian sighed, pinching the list of 'young talents' with a look of embarrassment on his face.

"The rebels are rampant, and dare to use my name to shout the slogan that the tiller has his land, and farming does not pay taxes.

It is tolerable, what is unbearable!
I can't wait to wipe them out within three days, but all my lovers know that I will use the power of the whole country to conquer Goryeo, and the treasury... really can't afford the money to suppress the bandits! "

The ministers of civil and military affairs nodded slightly, their faces revealing expressions of surprise.

It turns out that the root of the disease is here!

Isn't it because the court has no money?Is this a problem?It's just to wipe out a band of rebels, why don't we pay for the food ourselves?
Once the bandits are successfully suppressed, won't all of our 'young talents' grasp the military power and become a force to be reckoned with?
Eunuch, Wei Zhongxian, just wait and see!
"Your Majesty, I have a suggestion." Soon a minister came to his senses, fell to his knees with a 'plop', and said in a deep voice: "Suppressing rebels is a major national event, how can we give up just because the treasury is empty?
The minister is willing to donate fifteen shi of grain, three gold coins, and two silver coins, all of which will be used as military pay for suppressing bandits! "

Zhu Youjian: "..."

That's okay too?You, the left servant of the household department, donate fifteen shi of grain?

Before Zhu Youjian could say something, other ministers knelt on the ground one after another, and began to "donate money and food" with righteous words.

Some donated five stones, some donated 28 stones, some donated 61 stones...

Really, a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Youjian laughed, and said warmly: "My loves are usually frugal, and you don't even want to eat a morsel of coarse food. In order to suppress the thieves, you are able to generously donate your money. It is really a blessing to my Ming Dynasty!
Wei Zhongxian, prepare a pamphlet to record the money and food donated by all the lovers.

By the way, the money and food spent by those who voluntarily recruited soldiers to suppress the bandits are also recorded. When the bandits in Shanxi and Gansu are settled, I will reward them for their merits! "

"In addition, order the Daming Academy to work overtime to produce a batch of new firearms, and equip them with the local soldiers recruited by your love, so that the big guys can go into battle to kill thieves, and completely relieve my internal troubles in Daming!"

Wei Zhongxian squeezed the male duck's voice, and shouted happily: "The minister obeys the order!"

The great eunuch Wei Zhongxian has seen through it, the idiot emperor in front of him is about to prodigal again.

However, this time, it is estimated that everyone will accompany defeat together...

……

Under the "bitter remonstrance" of the ministers of civil and military affairs, Zhu Youjian reluctantly agreed to the "intrigue" in the Jinluan Hall, and let the rich and wealthy households in Zhili, Shandong, Henan, Shanxi, Shaanxi and other places recruit local soldiers and raise their own funds. Food and salaries to form an army to suppress thieves.

Even, if someone from a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River is willing to suppress the thieves, he is encouraged to recruit troops and go to the front lines of Shaanxi and Gansu!
Rich and powerful families everywhere are busy.

In the court, civil servants and ministers donate money and food, which is a technical job.

You can't donate too much, otherwise, wouldn't it be extremely bad for the dog emperor to say, "Where did you get so much money and food?"
Didn't you see that everyone is wearing patched court clothes...

But the wealthy aristocratic family needs to let go of their hands and feet when recruiting native soldiers, and they can recruit as many as they can.

Anyway, everyone has plenty of money and food, and the imperial court is also equipped with the latest muskets. If they try to find a way to privately buy a batch of Western firearms, it will be a reasonable and legal military power for everyone!
According to the military system of the Ming Dynasty, the military system is divided into two parts: the Beijing Army and the Local Army.

Among them, the Beijing Army, also known as the Jingying, is the elite of the Ming Dynasty Guards, who defend the capital in peacetime and the main force in wartime, belonging to the emperor's soldiers.

During the Taizu Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, there were 48 guards in the Beijing camp, and in the Yongle Dynasty, there were 72 guards. Three battalions of the Five Army, Three Thousand, and Shenji were established.

In normal times, the five army battalions practice the camp formation, the three thousand battalion leaders make patrols, and the Shenji battalion handles firearms.

In the future, the Beijing military system will become easier.

At the time of Zhu Youjian, the idiot emperor, there were still guards guarding the emperor, such as Jinyiwei and Jinwu, Yulin, Huben, Fujun and other twelve guards, as well as Wuxiang, Tengxiang, Zuowei and Youwei under the Yumajian. Wei and other four camps of David.

As for the local army, it includes the guards, frontier soldiers and militia.

The guards were stationed in the important military towns in the interior and the key points of coastal defense in the southeast. The frontier soldiers were the garrison troops defending against the northern barbarian cavalry.

The militia is an armed force that is not registered in the military and is assigned by the government to maintain local law and order. It is called minzhuang, volunteers or archers, machine soldiers, and fast hands in the interior, native soldiers in the northwest frontier, and Miao soldiers and wolf soldiers in the southwest minority areas. Soldiers and other chieftain soldiers.

In addition, there are mine soldiers, salt soldiers, monk soldiers, etc. formed by different industries and classes. In case of war, they are often called out to fight, and they return to the original site after the war.

With military power in his hand, when he speaks, his waist will naturally become tougher.

The civil servants and Qingliu have long thought about it clearly. The fundamental reason why everyone failed repeatedly and suffered heavy losses every time they fought against the eunuchs was that they could borrow the soldiers of the dog emperor to kill everyone.

This time, it's different!

Everyone, you have soldiers in your hands!
Eunuch, Wei Zhongxian, just wait and see!
