Having seen the xenon lamp, the officials were naturally more curious about the other treasures brought by Zhu Yushuo.

Even Liu Zhibo, who had seen the video of Chongzhen’s edict, was no exception.

He remembered that this was not what the princess showed him before?

Could it be that this magic weapon can also change its appearance?

Under the gaze of all the officials, mottled light and shadow appeared on the white cloth.

The pause screen at the beginning of the video was still there, but officials such as Long Wenguang and Zhang Jimeng who had been to Wuying Palace and had seen Chongzhen knelt down instantly.

"His Majesty!"

Long Wenguang, Zhang Jimeng and other officials knelt down and shouted tremblingly.

Even Liu Zhibo couldn't help but kneel down.

There were many more people on this white cloth than what he had seen on the tablet before, and it was easier for people to mistake them for reality.

Seeing this, Zhu Ailao had to explain again, "Everyone, this is just an image of the late emperor's presence, not the late emperor's personal visit."

After all, Zhu Yulao had explained in advance that there were "treasures" such as xenon lamps to strengthen the psychological resistance of the officials.

So after hearing what Zhu Yuluo said, these officials reacted.

But not only did the number of people kneel down not only not decrease, but they all knelt down towards Chongzhen on the white cloth.

Zhu Aelao was too lazy to talk anymore and just played the video.

For a time, all the officials watched the video of Chongzhen's edict attentively.

The officials watched the video, which was less than two minutes long, several times. It was not until Zhu Yuju turned off the projector that they all stood up.

Officials such as Long Wenguang, Liu Zhibo, Zhang Jimeng, etc. who had seen Chongzhen had their eyes red, and some were even still wiping tears.

Zhu Yuyao sighed slightly in her heart. Thinking of her father, she felt quite sad, but she had to calm down.

"You now have no doubts about my commission to supervise the country, right?"

Below, Long Wenguang, Liu Zhibo, and Zhang Jimeng exchanged glances with each other, and then they all kowtowed to Zhu Aao and shouted loudly.

"See the prison country!"

This bow and kowtow is completely different from the bowing ceremony that I saw Zhu Yuyao do before. It is the bowing ceremony of a minister to the emperor.

Obviously, all three of them recognized the fact that Zhu Yurao was appointed to supervise the country, and even acquiesced to another meaning represented by this matter - only the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty could supervise the country, and conversely, supervising the country also meant becoming the prince of the Ming Dynasty!

Seeing this, other people also fell down and kowtowed.

Including Commander-in-Chief Liu Zhenfan, as well as Li Yan, Liu Xiaolian, Fang Zhenghua and others who had been watching before, they all kowtowed to Zhu Aona and shouted in unison -

"See the prison country!"

Seeing the ministers bowing their heads, Zhu Ainao not only took a deep breath, but also raised her hand and said in a clear voice: "I wish you all to be safe!"

From then on, she became the real supervisor of the Ming Dynasty.

However, at present, her status as supervisor is only recognized by Sichuan officials. There is still a long way to go before she can become a veritable supervisor of the Ming Dynasty...

"Zhang Xianzhong captured Chongqing, and the next step will definitely be to attack Chengdu. Therefore, Chengdu's current affairs must be to prepare for the enemy.

Can anyone tell me how many soldiers and horses there were in Chengdu before I arrived, and who commanded them?"

Listening to Zhu A'ao's question, Long Wenguang showed his intentions. However, he had only been in Chengdu for a few days as governor. Everything was complicated, and he really didn't know much about the original military situation in the city.

Liu Zhibo stood up and said: "Returning to the supervision of the country, according to the regulations of the country, after the Zhengtong Year, the city of Chengdu should still have four guards, front, rear, middle and right guards, with a total of more than 20,000 people.

In fact, the military equipment of the garrison has been abandoned for hundreds of years, with as many as 89% of deserters, and the remaining ones are too weak to fight, and they have been destroyed in name only.

Now even if the officers and soldiers of the Four Guards are summoned, it is estimated that it will be difficult to exceed 5,000 people, and most of them will be old, weak and cowardly soldiers.

Later, Chengdu implemented a recruitment system to prepare for the invaders, and there was a post of Chengdu garrison general officer.

But in the spring, Zhang Xianzhong attacked Kuizhou and Chongqing. Cao Ying, the commander-in-chief of the Chengdu garrison, led his troops to fight. They were defeated and fled without trace.

Now there are only about a thousand soldiers from the camp who had fled back in the city. Most of them were frightened by the news of the enemy and were also unable to fight.

In addition, there were officers and soldiers from various government offices and several inspection departments, totaling about 2,000 people. They were a mob, and their combat power was also worrying.

The only ones with some combat effectiveness should be the more than 8,000 soldiers of Liu Zongbing who came with Long Futai to aid Chengdu a few days ago.

As for the combat strength of General Liu's troops, I don't know yet. Perhaps I can ask General Liu to tell me."

Hao Guangming heard these words through his mobile phone, and after calculation, he found that even regardless of combat strength, excluding the troops brought by Zhu Aona, Chengdu could only muster fifteen or six thousand officers and soldiers.

This number is not too much, but it is not too much if it is too little.

Of course, if we exclude those without combat effectiveness, the number of remaining officers and soldiers may not be ten thousand.

Zhu Aelao heard this and looked at Liu Zhenfan.

This man was also a martial arts scholar in the Chongzhen period, and his courtesy name was Jiayin, so he was also called Liu Jiayin in many historical records of later generations.

He came to the palace and said carefully: "Reporting to the prison country, there were originally more than 10,000 soldiers under the general's command. In the previous battles with Zhang Xianzhong's troops in Kuizhou, Chongqing, and Shunqing, they lost more than they won, so now more than half of the more than 8,000 soldiers are

The retreating troops gathered together.

Moreover, the camp has been short of food for three months, and it is difficult to sustain food and grass. There are still some wounded soldiers, the morale of the army is low, and the fighting strength is probably..."

Liu Zhenfan stopped here, but everyone understood what he meant.

The combat effectiveness of the eight thousand soldiers and horses under his command is also worrying.

Zhu Yasuo nodded and asked: "How much is the monthly military salary for the generals in General Liu's barracks?"

Liu Zhenfan chose to vomit his bitterness just now because he actually had the idea of ​​asking Zhu Yaora for military pay, but he was not sure whether he could get it. After all, he had not been a general under Zhu Yaara before.

Therefore, after listening to Zhu Yu'ao's words, he couldn't help but feel excited, and hurriedly said: "Go back to the prison country, and the soldiers recruited in the camp will be given one tael of silver and half a stone of food every month."

Zhu Aao looked at Long Wenguang again and asked: "Long Futai, is what Mr. Liu said true?"

Long Wenguang said: "It's true."

Zhu Ayao then said to Liu Xiaolian: "Liu is engaged. Later, he will supplement the military pay for General Liu's department. In addition, after General Liu turns over the military register, he will also pay out the pensions to his fallen soldiers."

"Yes." Liu Xiaolian responded.

Seeing this, Liu Zhenfan couldn't help but his eyes turned slightly red - this was the easiest time for him to ask for military pay since he took charge of the army. In the past, when had he not asked his grandfather to sue his grandma to get military pay?

So this middle-aged man, who was seven feet tall, knelt down with a plop, kowtowed to Zhu Auao again, and said: "I will thank the supervisor for all the soldiers!"

Zhu Aona said: "General Liu, there is no need to be like this. As long as your troops can fight against the enemy with all their strength in the future, the military pay will not be short."

"The general will definitely remember this!"

Zhu Ayao said to Long Wenguang again: "Long Futai, later you will ask the people below to make statistics. If the officials in Chengdu have arrears of salary, I will also ask Liu to make up for it."

One of the reasons why Zhu Yasuo was so generous was because she received a huge amount of money and food from the Prince of Shu.

Secondly, it is necessary to invigorate the hearts and minds of the people and the military in Chengdu through the repayment of salaries and military pay.

As for whether Long Wenguang, Liu Zhenfan and others would make false reports, she was not worried. People would be sent to investigate this situation later, and it would be easy to know the truth.

Besides, she had just shown her divine powers and a few treasures. Only those two people who were greedy, bold and short-sighted would dare to defraud her of money and food.

After Long Wenguang responded, Liu Zhibo took the initiative to stand up and said: "To inform the supervisor, Chengdu's city defense needs to be strengthened, and a lot of defense materials need to be prepared. Money and food are also needed."

Zhu Aona said: "How much food is needed in this area? Mr. Liu can write a note to Mr. Li later. If Mr. Li thinks it is okay and signs it, he can go to Mr. Liu to receive the money and food."

"Yes." Liu Zhibo responded first, then looked at Li Yan and asked, "I wonder what position this Mr. Li holds temporarily, and which yamen does Liu work for?"

Li Yan smiled and didn't care.

Zhu Yasao blinked her eyes, and then said with a smile, "I was negligent - the world is in chaos today, and the mountains and rivers need to be reorganized in order to wipe out the rogue bandits and drive away the Tartars.

Since I have been appointed to supervise the country, I am preparing to form a supervising government office to take on this important task.

Liu Xiaolian was originally the son of Zuo Zhongyun and Liu Lishun, and was ordered by the late emperor to assist the palace.

On his way south, he also did a lot of things, so he was appointed as the seventh rank of the Financial Secretary of the Supervisory Government.

Li Yan was originally a pseudo-shun scholar. He and his wife abandoned Li Chuang and joined the Ming Dynasty. He also protected the palace in the capital and made great contributions, so he was awarded the title of second-rank supervisor of the Imperial Palace."

Supervise the government?

The seventh grade is engaged in work, the second grade is supervisor?
