The prince controls the young army. There is ancestral precedent for this matter. His Majesty's request is reasonable and reasonable. It is your turn to oppose it, monsters like you.
There is no way to oppose the re-establishment of the Young Army.
Can limit the number of young troops.
Chen Ruyan, a doctor in the Ministry of War, came out and said, "Your Majesty, although it has been eight years since the Wala invaded the south, our Ming Dynasty has been recuperating and recuperating under your majesty's benevolent government, and its national strength has been rising. However, the heavy damage back then was really profound. In the past eight years, the local areas have been pacified many times, and the battle damage is not small. Now,
The regimental camp and the 26th Guards of the Pro-Army are still not fully staffed, and it is impossible to mobilize enough manpower to form a young army."
Zhu Qiyu glanced at Chen Ruyan and asked Yu Qian, "Is there no one in Yu Shaobao?"
Yu Qian was called out and had to go out of the queue and said: "We are really short of money, and there are an additional 10,000 horses. Will the expenses for weapons, armor and military pay come from the Ministry of Household Affairs or from His Majesty's treasury?"
The former, national finance.
The latter is paid out of pocket.
Yu Qian raised this question to return the problem to Zhu Qiyu.
Man, I can barely get it for you.
But money...
You have to ask Chen Xun, the Minister of Household Affairs.
Zhu Qiyu looked at Chen Xun.
Chen Xun had no choice but to come out, "It is indeed a bit difficult to come up with military pay, ordnance and equipment for 10,000 people at once. The main reason is that there have been many floods in recent years, and funds for flood control have to be reserved. Moreover, the counterinsurgency efforts in Huguang, Sichuan and other places cost a lot. After the war,
Appeasement also requires a lot of food, Your Majesty, why not reduce the number of subordinates in the young army?"
It is a pity that Xu Youzhen, an expert in flood control, died.
Chen Xundu said this, and Zhu Qiyu knew that the Ministry of Revenue really had no money.
Look at Zhu Jianji.
The meaning in my eyes is, son, what do you think I should do?
Zhu Jianji has been listening. Faced with the most elite career veterans in the country, his experience is still insufficient and he can't tell the truth of what these people say. However, Chen Xun's words should be credible. Jingtai has indeed been suppressing chaos every year for eight years.
, Daming has been unable to breathe.
He stood up and asked Chen Xun, "Chen Shangshu, can the Ministry of Household Affairs allocate a sum of money for arms for three thousand men?"
Chen Xun thought for a while, calculating silently. After a long time, he finally took a breath and said, "If you go back to Your Highness, if you mobilize troops to form a small army of 3,000 people, you are allowed to take away the ordnance from the original guard base, and you only need to make up part of it."
If it’s armor, that’s fine.”
Zhu Jianji nodded and looked at Yu Qian, "Yu Shaobao, are there any of the three hundred people?"
Yu Qian was stunned for a moment, "Three hundred?"
Everyone, not just Yu Qian, was a little confused. Didn't His Highness the Crown Prince say that it would cost 3,000 men to equip 300 men? Why would he only need 300 men and 3,000 men to equip 300 men? What kind of army would cost so much?
Zhu Jianji nodded, "I only want three hundred."
Although Yu Qian was confused, he did not hesitate, "I can give His Highness five hundred to be transferred from the regiment camp."
Three hundred young troops are too outrageous.
Zhu Jianji shook his head, "The regiment camp is the backbone of the defense of the Ming Dynasty. It must not only defend Mobei, but also quell chaos everywhere. It cannot move without permission. Let's transfer it from the 26th Guards of the pro-army army."
The international situation of the Ming Dynasty in recent years can be said to be miserable, but not bad, and Mobei Wala collapsed.
That's okay, the Jurchens have become stronger again.
And domestic uprisings continued.
There has been no rebellion in Jingtai for eight years.
The reason is that after the Tumubao Incident, the national strength was cut in half and all the elites were lost. In order to strengthen the regiment, the state imposed heavy taxes. In addition, land annexation became increasingly serious. In the end, it was the people at the bottom who bore the burden.
If life can't go on, it would be weird if it didn't happen.
To put down the chaos, Zhenbei needs elites.
Therefore, the heavy responsibility of the regiment and camp rests on our shoulders, so we can do nothing if we can.
The number of personnel is only 300, and the military expenditure is only a quota of 3,000. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has backed down to this point. If everyone does not support it, the father and son will definitely overturn the table.
Yu Qian said: "Wei Chen will ask the twenty-six guards of the personal army to fully cooperate with His Highness!"
In addition to the Jinyiwei, Tengxiang, and Wuxiang guards of the twenty-sixth pro-army, the officials of the other guards, except for worship, dispatching of troops and horses, and the power to allocate military salaries, all belong to the Ministry of War!
This is why Zhu Qiyu was under so much pressure before the Shi Heng turmoil.
Every military commander has his own agenda.
Civil servants hold great power.
As an emperor, the only people he could command were the tens of thousands of Jin Yiwei, and anyone else would have to sleep at night.
Chen Xun also immediately said: "The Ministry of Revenue will send people to the East Palace as soon as possible to hand over matters to His Highness the Crown Prince."
Zhu Jianji hummed and sat down.
Done!
Today Lao Zhu gave himself a big gift. Unexpectedly, he kept silent and actually wanted to form a young army for himself. This cheap old man insisted on getting it.
It's not in vain that I have worked so hard to prevent him from playing with women.
In other words, after the Shiheng turmoil and Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed, his thinking and way of doing things have improved to a higher level. If he regains his mentality and regains military power, he might really be able to create a prosperous Jingtai era.
It’s also very cool.
I have been a prince for eighty years, and it still tastes good when I lie down and chew on my old age.
When the ministers saw the prince sitting down, they were still muttering in their hearts.
Why does he only need 300 people?
Is it stupid?
In fact, if His Majesty the Crown Prince persists, even if he cannot raise a 10,000-strong infantry army, he can raise a personal guard force of 5,000 or 3,000 people. With His Majesty's cooperation, it will be difficult but can be done.
As a result, he didn't want to play his cards according to the routine, and he showed his trump card when he came up. There were only three hundred people.
Can't figure it out.
This doesn't look like the evil prince who strategized and beheaded Wu Qinghou Shi Heng in front of the Zhengyang Gate.
But there is one thing to say: the prince's performance in Fengtian Palace was remarkable.
Mature, steady and experienced.
And he knows how to measure!
He doesn't look like a ten-year-old child at all, more like an adult who has experienced hardships.
Zhu Qiyu was also greatly surprised. What kind of situation is this bastard? Why did he make such a big concession? What can three hundred people do? It is not enough for others to swallow up. Since there is a military expenditure of three thousand, three thousand people should be needed.
However, his son has already agreed, so Zhu Qiyu can't say anything else.
He must be allowed to establish his majesty as a prince.
Zhu Qiyu has been doing this ever since he came up with the idea of a Zen position. As long as his son decides something, he will never refute it, no matter whether it is right or wrong.
He coughed and said, "Do you have anything else to do, sir?"
One after another, ministers came forward to report.
To everyone's surprise, His Majesty never mentioned the matter of selecting a concubine for the Crown Prince.
Today's court meeting will take a very long time.
It was almost noon when we retired from the court.
Zhu Qiyu called Zhu Jianji and went back to the Qianqing Palace together. On the way, Zhu Qiyu asked: "Jianji, why do you only need 300 people? Don't you understand? Chen Xun agreed to the military expenditure of 3,000 people, and Yu Qian will give it to you."
Three thousand people.”
Zhu Jianji smiled and said, "Old Zhu, you just don't understand. It's better to have more troops than more troops."
Zhu Qiyu said angrily: "Speak like a human being!"
My son must have an idea.
Zhu Jianji said: "Jiang Yuan, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, is an old cunning guy. Old Zhu will give him a try when he has time. Since I want to form a young army of three hundred people, I will use the weapons supervisor on a large scale."
Zhu Qiyu suddenly realized, "Do you want to rebuild the Shenji Camp?"
Zhu Jianji laughed, "Shenji camp?"
Thinking too much.
I want to create a special force, the kind that specializes in beheading.
Of course, firearms are the main force.
It is unrealistic to have three hundred people with one Dongfeng sniper rifle.
Let the ordnance inspector work overtime to first solve the problem of spring steel, improve the steel-making method and the forging process of bullet casings, and then improve the gunpowder. In about three years, everyone will have an entry-level rifle. Isn't it difficult?
If you have money, you can do whatever you want! This chapter has been completed!
