The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son

Liu Jian also looked dumbfounded, looked at the list carefully, and couldn't help but suck.

This is just a guard of five thousand people.

The design of His Royal Highness is a standing army with thirty-six guards in the future.

Not only that, but in the future, even ... a system for ensuring armaments needs to be established. In the event of a major war, the guard of these 5,000 people will be expanded to 20,000.

If it is calculated in this way, this military needs ... where is there so much money in the treasury.

This is equivalent to a bottomless hole.

Liu Jian looked at Li Dongyang and Xie Qian with a complicated eye, and Li Dongyang smiled bitterly: "His Royal Highness's mind is good, and the current health station is indeed a serious problem. Perhaps changing the hereditary health station to a standing army can indeed eliminate many hidden dangers. This is the first army set up by His Majesty. His Royal Highness Prince is eager for success, and it is understandable, but ... two million two silver, even if it is maintained in the future, it will need more than one million silver in a year, and it will need to be expanded in the future. And more health centers need to be set up, and the amount of money needed for this will only increase more and more! Hey, I am Daming, where there is so much spare power. Liu Gong, how do you think? "

There was a little helplessness on Liu Jian's face, and he sighed: "Isn't His Majesty very clear already? The prince under the supervision of the Kingdom has no reason to lose faith. This is about military affairs, not to be underestimated. , The Ministry of Military Affairs will try its best to cooperate in this matter. "

"What?" Ma Wensheng almost exploded as soon as he heard the cooperation. He came here today to find support, but not the two words he wanted.

Ma Wensheng is not stupid, and immediately pointed out a difficult point: "The military department needs to cooperate, you need to allocate money to the household department, if not, how to cooperate?"

Hearing this, Li Dongyang thought about it, then glanced at Liu Jian and smiled.

He seemed to understand the meaning of Liu Jian's words, so he said: "This is easy to handle, the military department, and other places, you can save some money. Here, the household department, there should be no less money."

Ma Wensheng was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't think of it. Even Li Dongyang, who is also a part of the Hushu Shangshu, actually agrees with it!

He couldn't understand that on weekdays, it was the princes of the cabinet that tens of thousands of silvers stole and groped, how could it be so generous at once.

Ma Wensheng was still unwilling, so he stretched his face and said: "Dukes and officials, there is a sentence, I don't know if I should say, although the former imperial history and the Hanlin Qingliu, catch the wind and catch the shadows every day, there is nothing to say, impeachment, It is a great evil to invite people to buy people's hearts. Over the years, after His Majesty's rectification, the atmosphere has changed a lot. It can be said that it has removed the old disadvantages of my Da Ming's hands-on talks. When something is wrong, you should be silent about everything. What you should avoid is overkill. How can you let it go like this absurd and absurd government? Instead of preventing it, you should indulge it ... what is the reason? ? "

Liu Jianbian looked like an old god, silent.

However, Li Dongyang smiled and glanced at Liu Jian, then he said: "Is it evil? How do you know if you don't try?"

Ma Wensheng raised his tone and said, "Can these five thousand people alone be two million or two silver?"

Li Dongyang said: "Since Ma Shangshu still knows that two million or two silver is not a decimal, and feels distressed, then ... in the palace ..."

Suddenly ...

This is really a wake-up call to the dreamer. Ma Wensheng, who has been annoyed for a long time, finally understood what was happening at this time.

Instead of opposing, the cabinet poured cold water on the prince.

It is better to follow the trend.

On the one hand, I heard that the cost is so great that a single army consumes so much silver. Your majesty is afraid of being distressed.

On the other hand, the prince spent so much money and built a new army of only 5,000 people. Sooner or later, he was about to hit the wall.

But everyone knows that today's prince is a character who does not see the coffin and does not cry. Now if he strongly opposes it, it will only provoke the prince. His prince will not do anything without support. Let him retreat from his own difficulties!

Sure enough ... Ginger is still old and spicy.

Ma Wensheng wanted to understand that the heavy mood suddenly became much lighter, and he said happily: "Okay, that's the case, then ... The Ministry of Warfare will try its best to cooperate with the Prince. Material resources, the Ministry of Military Affairs will certainly assist. "

Liu Jian said: "Don't forget that the previous system of guards has reached the point of no change. The prince's regulations are only excessive, but this does not mean that I am still conservative and incomplete, so ... In the effort of His Royal Highness, it is necessary to come up with a charter. This charter is to be stable. It must be reformed, but not too much. This is not a trivial matter, understand? "

Ma Wensheng had some thoughts in his mind. He deeply felt the heavy responsibility, so he said with awe: "The Ministry of Defense must do its best. This time, it will not let Liu Gong down."

"Very good." Liu Jian nodded his head, then said: "His Royal Highness Prince and Qi Guogong's heart is good ..."

He didn't continue to speak, but shook his head.

…………

This time, Zhu Houzhao was also taken aback, not expecting anything ... This time, the military department was very happy.

Give almost whatever you want.

The latest artillery, the latest gun ... Because the Ministry of Defense has no reserves, it quickly placed an order. All ammunition is paid in time.

Not only that, the military headquarters prepared for the new army camp, also vacated from the original military camp, and hired a craftsman to repair again.

As for the new military uniforms designed by Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan, there is no objection to the Ministry of Military Affairs, and they are directly looking for workshop production.

This new military uniform is no longer armored.

Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan agreed that the future form of war will change dramatically. Melee has retreated from the mainstream and retreated into the last stream. Because of the large-scale application of firearms, sooner or later the enemies facing Daming will also use firearms Opponent, then the armor becomes useless.

Once this heavy armor is useless, it is replaced by wearable military uniforms. At the same time, in order to ensure supply, the military will be equipped with more personal clothing.

In this regard, the Ministry of Defense still has no objection.

Immediately afterwards, recruiting talents, Daming lacked everything, but no shortage of people!

The backbone of a group of military academies with the command of the prince has already sharpened their swords. At the command of Qi Guogong, they drilled specifically to southern Jiangxi, western Zhejiang, Fujian, northern Guangdong, Shandong, and Shaanxi.

Southerners ... living in the mountains, living in difficult conditions, just like the original Yiwu and Yongkang soldiers of the naval division, these people used urination to teach themselves in order to survive. This ability of large-scale fighting was ancestral and can be traced back to Yanhuang period. Pride and Shandong, Shaanxi and other places have always been tall and strong, and they are the best candidates for recruiting troops.

This time ... no longer just recruited military personnel, but carefully selected, and the salaries given were not low. Going out to work, it is probably only the wages.

Not only that, for men who live in remote places, this salary is more attractive.

Soon, a steady stream of soldiers began to enter Beijing.

The Ministry of Military Affairs has also started to make books for all new members.

Immediately afterwards ... Wang Shouren received an order, and he was appointed as the first army commander without any surprise.

This Mr. Wang Boan, who can be described as Yunwen Yunwu, is a good piece of steel, always used on the blade.

From the first civil servant, he became a low-ranking military officer. The general people are generally unwilling, and Wang Shouren has never been an ordinary person. He has no complaints. Without saying anything, he carried his burden and entered the empty barracks first. It is considered to have left office.

Fang Jifan couldn't help feeling, Wang Shouren was the most conscientious among the disciples!

In Kaichun, the new members gathered together, and then ... Wang Shouren followed the method and practiced.

He needs to work out a method of training that can be promoted.

It didn't take long for a charter of Wang Shouren to be sent to Yuqian.

Emperor Hongzhi specially called the ministers to discuss.

At this point, everything was recovering, and the emperor Hongzhi was already covered with silver hair, and he seemed much older, and he was very worried about the establishment of this standing army.

The crown princes Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan were stubborn and compared with the old emperor, they seemed more capable.

Liu Jian and others are all there.

These days, the military department is almost like running water, and it can be said to be the first army.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at the money and money spent by the Ministry of Defense, but he couldn't help but say ...

This is too much money, so that the emperor Hongzhi could not help but doubt that he raised not soldiers, but 5,000 uncles.

Xiao Jing took Wang Shouren's play, and after reading it, everyone was silent.

The new army ’s proposal put forward by Wang Shouren is that the way of training is not the chief officer, the strength of the army, the significance of the coach is not big, but that the army needs to train a group of capable low-level military officers and backbone veterans, these People are the only guarantee for an army to maintain its combat effectiveness. Therefore, it is of paramount importance to protect low-level military officers and veterans.

In addition to this, among the minutes of military training, the role of backbone is particularly promoted.

To allow the military to achieve a ban on orders and orders, in addition to logistical support, so that officers and soldiers can have no worries, it is a system of drills and military laws that absolutely must be observed.

Of course ... in this charter, in fact, to put it bluntly, we still need money.

Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly, turned his eyes, and looked at Ma Wensheng: "How is Ma Qing's opinion?"

Ma Wensheng said: "Your Majesty, Wang commanded Yunwen Yunwu, and the minister did not hear anything wrong. But ... the soldier hierarchy he proposed divided the soldiers into three grades, the most debatable of which was the salaries of the veterans. Isn't it too much? There are also low-level military officers ... these seven-rank, eight-rank, and nine-rank military officers, their salaries ... "

"Father and Emperor." Zhu Hou said: "How hard it is for the soldiers to practice day and night, and the military law is strict. If they can't let them worry-free, how can they let them practice in peace, in case they need it from time to time. Children think this is The most secure regulations are that the children are the soldiers who have led the soldiers. They are well aware of the sufferings of the soldiers, but the imperial court must compare the baht here, which will inevitably make people chill. "

Emperor Hongzhi gave Zhu Houzhao a helpless look, and his heart felt sore. The child didn't know what to do.

"This matter ... Let's discuss it again." The emperor Hongzhi said that he distressed the silver, but he was determined to look at it again and see if the first army could be effective.

Seeing this, Ma Wensheng suddenly said: "Your Majesty, there is one more thing to be played by the minister."

"Huh?" Emperor Hongzhi looked at Ma Wensheng.

Ma Wensheng said: "A few days ago, the minister ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ appointed a person to go to the Weizhou Wei patrol camp, but found that the Weizhou guard was sensibly disciplined and well-organized. The battle was proud. At the beginning ... they had participated in the battle against the Tatars, and they have made many achievements. Now, they are still guarding Weizhou, and they are called elites. "

Weizhou Wei ...

Ma Wensheng suddenly mentioned Weizhou Wei, but it made many people interested.

Obviously, this is an ordinary health center, but Ma Wensheng, as a soldier of the military department, still praised him.

You know, the Weizhou guards raised by the court, but they do n’t need silver. A Weizhou guard that does n’t need silver can become elite, and as Ma Wensheng said, it can be called a strong army, then ...

Others speculate in their hearts.

But Fang Jifan was shocked when he heard Jiang Bin, Weizhou ... Jiang Bin ...

But that ... was favored by Zhu Houzhao in history, thinking that the righteous son is a powerful dog?
