    "Your Majesty!" Li Rubai closed the booklet, pondered for a moment and asked, "How are the military positions arranged?"

    Zhu Youxiao said without hesitation: "You are responsible for selecting and appointing talents. I will never interfere with this. However, in the early days of the formation of the Guards, the commander and command inspector were changed once a month. The brigade commander and deputy brigade commander were replaced.  The guards and deputy guards are changed every three months!"

    Li Rubai couldn't help being stunned after hearing this, and said in astonishment: "Your Majesty, if this is the case, the soldiers will not know the generals, and the generals will not know the soldiers, which will be detrimental to the war!"

    Zhang Weixian also followed up and said: "Your Majesty, it is important for soldiers and generals to know each other. Only in this way can they be like arms and fingers. If they are changed frequently, I am afraid it will be inappropriate!"

    Zhu Youxiao smiled calmly and said: "My dear friends, when you use chopsticks, do you have to use only one pair? If you use other chopsticks, you won't be able to use them?"

    Zhang Weixian and Li Rubai looked at each other and seemed to have a taste. However, they still did not fully understand what Zhu Youxiao meant. They could only say in unison: "Your Majesty, please make it clear!"

    Zhu Youxiao glanced at the two of them and said: "The so-called soldiers and generals know each other, I think, has two meanings. The first is that the training procedures are not unified, which leads to the traces of the general being too obvious during military training. Such an army only needs to change the general.  , the combat effectiveness will naturally be greatly reduced. The second is an excuse for generals to support their troops and respect themselves. Only in this way can generals maintain their own troops and status. What I want to do is that all soldiers are trained in accordance with unified drills. I want to ask all soldiers  The soldiers are all carved out of the same mold, so what else can be said about generals not knowing their own soldiers, and soldiers not knowing their generals?"

    Zhang Weixian and Li Rubai still disagree with the first point raised by Zhu Youxiao, but the second point is fatal. This is Zhu Youxiao's hint to them not to think about supporting troops and respecting themselves, otherwise they will never get good results.  , in this case they will naturally not oppose Zhu Youxiao's approach!

    So the two of them saluted in a tacit understanding: "I understand, thank you Your Majesty for your advice!"

    Zhu Youxiao didn't care whether they really understood or pretended to understand. Anyway, his meaning had been conveyed. If anyone wanted to hold the army in his own hands, no matter how fast his knife was, he would definitely let these people go.  People know, they know!

    After handling the matter of the Guards cavalry, Zhu Youxiao said to Zhang Weixian: "Old Duke, I have handed over the matter of the Guards cavalry to Li Shuai, but the formation of the Guards infantry still needs the assistance of the Ministry of War.  !¡±

    Zhang Weixian quickly leaned forward and said, "Please give me your Majesty's orders!"

    Zhu Youxiao said: "Qi Jin and Qin Liangyu each brought 3,000 people to Beijing to form the Guards Infantry. Qi Jin was the Guards Infantry Commander, the Guards Commander-in-Chief's Deputy Commander-in-Chief, and Qin Liangyu was appointed as the Guards Infantry.  The deputy commander is in charge of the infantry of the Guards. In addition, he recruits 24,000 young men aged 18 to 20 in Beizhili. The infantry of the Guards consists of 30,000 people. Remember, I want to recruit  Soldiers, there are only three requirements. The first is that the family is poor, and the poorer the better, the second is that the family must be clean, and the third is that the body must be healthy and cannot have any disabilities or hidden diseases. Does the old man understand?  "

    Zhang Weixian now has to explain clearly whether he understands it or not. Anyway, he can do whatever the little emperor tells him to do. He will not have any objection, so Zhang Weixian responded: "I understand!"

    However, Zhang Weixian is not a puppet, and he also knows that the little emperor does not need puppets, so after accepting the job, he asked: "Your Majesty, may I ask how the newly recruited soldiers will be paid and paid?"

    Zhu Youxiao said without thinking: "The An family has ten taels of silver and a monthly military salary of three taels. The soldiers of Qi Jin and Qin Liangyu also follow this standard!"

    After hearing this, the elders here all felt sore in their teeth. This little emperor is not old, but his skills are never small. At this time, more than 300,000 taels of silver have gone out, and this is just the beginning.  Price, the expenses of this Guards army will be the bulk of the expenses in the future!

    Zhang Weixian also felt distressed, but he still responded: "I have written it down!"

    Immediately, Zhang Weixian asked: "Your Majesty, how should we deal with the existing departments in the Beijing camp?"

    Zhu Youxiao thought for a while and said: "The Beijing Camp is owned by the country. It is naturally commanded by the Fifth Army Governor's Office and managed by the Ministry of War. Military pay and equipment must also be coordinated by the Ministry of War and the various departments of the imperial court. However, the Beijing Camp is currently vacant and there are too many old and weak people.  We need to vigorously rectify and eliminate people, but there is no need to replenish positions for the time being. The old and weak people who have been eliminated will be sent directly to Huangzhuang for resettlement!"

    Zhang Weixian responded again, but secretly thought in his heart: "It seems that Long Live wants to separate the army controlled by the royal family from the army controlled by the court! But this is good, as I, the Minister of War, will not become an empty frame!"

    Zhu Youxiao naturally didn¡¯t know?What was Zhang Weixian thinking in his mind? Seeing that the things in the camp in the west of the city were almost done, he stood up and said: "The things that should be done today are almost done. I will go back to the palace first, and you guys will discuss it carefully. In the future, the Ministry of War and the Commander-in-Chief will  How should the government cooperate with the various ministries of the imperial court? Once the regulations are in place, Mr. Fang Ge can just give me a report and let me know!"

    "I would like to send you off to Your Majesty!" Several ministers bowed quickly and sent Zhu Youxiao out of the big tent!

    The remaining thing is how to coordinate and bargain between these people, but with Zhu Youxiao's pressure, they have changed their past habit of wrangling, and they are completely fighting in front of each other!

    Among them, the Guards are the emperor's personal troops. Except for matters surrounding the station that need to be coordinated with the imperial court, everything else, whether military pay or weapons, is managed by the royal family. Therefore, Li Rubai just borrowed a place for Zhang Weixian, Fang Congzhe, and Liu Yishui to negotiate.  All he has left is to watch the fun!

    However, the newly released minister of the Ministry of War, the British Duke Zhang Weixian, was blushing with Fang Congzhe and Liu Yishui, the two current ministers. The focus of their dispute was the issue of military pay. Now the Ming Dynasty's most heavily paid military personnel include Jingying,  The three major parts of the frontier army and the Liao army, as well as the garrison and people's strongholds in other places, can be put aside first!

    But just these three big pieces have already made Fang Congzhe and Liu Yishui want to explode, because the military pay of these three armies is at least three million taels a year, and there are still a lot of unpaid wages, plus the new defeat of the Liao army  , needed pensions and reconstruction, so Zhang Weixian asked for five million taels of silver. This did not include the loss and replacement of armor and equipment. If all were taken into account, even ten million taels of silver would not be able to stop him!

    Fang Congzhe, a man of such magnanimity, couldn't help but tremble with anger after hearing the figures reported by Zhang Weixian: "Old Duke, do you know how much the Ming Dynasty will earn this year? It's only 4.8 million taels.  If you open your mouth and ask for five million taels, is it possible that Ming Dynasty does nothing but supports your Ministry of War?"

    Zhang Weixian was originally an excellent Duke, and now he is the Minister of the Ministry of War with real power. If nothing else, he puts on more airs than others. Faced with the rebuke from the chief minister of the dynasty, the old Duke spread his hands and said  : "Your Majesty asked me to take charge of the Ministry of War. I must take care of the affairs of the Ministry of War. If you lose the war and your Majesty wants my head, I will have no problem with it. But making money is a matter for your court. This matter  I have nothing to do with you. I only know how much money I need to raise soldiers. I will ask you for as much silver as you need. If you don¡¯t give it, I will naturally go to your Majesty to complain. Instead of arguing with me here,  It¡¯s better to find a way to get money!¡±

    Fang Congzhe turned blue with anger at Zhang Weixian. He pointed at Zhang Weixian and shivered even more. He never expected that after the Ministry of War was separated, there would be such a situation. If in the past, with just one word from his dignified chief assistant, the Ministry of War would naturally  Wipe it, wipe it, go where it is due, it is not a problem to convert millions of taels of silver into tens of thousands taels. If an official from the Ministry of War is dissatisfied, he will directly reprimand him and he will naturally stop!

    Where do you dare to go to the emperor to express your love?

    It¡¯s really shameful for him!

    But now it doesn't work anymore. Zhang Weixian, an old man, is a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water. He only wants money and doesn't care about the difficulties of his chief assistant. He can't refute and rebuke, and he has no qualifications to reprimand.  Fang Congzhe really has no place to bite the hedgehog now!

    well!

    There is no way to live this day!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
