For a moment, Li Rubai also had tears in his eyes: "I am a guilty person, and I received your majesty's grace to form the Guards Cavalry. This was originally an opportunity for me to redeem my merits, but your majesty treats me so favorably. I really don't know what to do." I repay His Majesty¡¯s kindness!¡±
Zhu Youxiao smiled and said: "As long as Li Shuai helps me educate the boys in the academy and provides many good generals to the Ming Dynasty, that will be the best reward for me!"
Hearing this, Li Rubai suddenly felt a murderous aura and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will train those boys hard!"
The students at the Daming Military Academy in Beijing all felt an inexplicable chill and didn¡¯t know what the problem was!
Next, Zhu Youxiao made Qi Jin, the infantry commander of the Guards, the Marquis of Anyuan, and Qin Liangyu, the deputy commander, the Marquis of Huaiyuan. At the same time, he revoked Qi Jin's position as the Infantry Commander of the Guards, granted him the title of Imperial Marshal, and appointed Qi Jin offered wine to the Infantry Department of the Royal Military Academy of the Ming Dynasty!
And Qin Liangyu naturally took over as the commander-in-chief of the infantry of the Guards. This female general, who will be famous throughout the ages, finally created a miracle under Zhu Youxiao and became the first female marquis and the first female marshal in the history of China!
As for the folklore of the female generals of the Yang Clan, stories such as Mu Guiying taking command are all made up by later generations and cannot be compared with Qin Liangyu, a female general who fought with real swords and guns!
After sealing these four people, the remaining people have already figured it out. No matter how powerful they are, they can't surpass these four people, and most of the remaining people are not very old. As long as there is a war in the future, those who will be granted the title of marquis or duke will be There are plenty of opportunities!
In fact, what makes these generals feel most at ease is that Zhu Youxiao provides them with a way out when they are old and frail. Not only do they have titles and honors, but they can also teach at the Royal Military Academy. Even if they can't make sacrificial wine, they can still do it. A lecturer is also a good choice!
At this time, Zhu Youxiao walked up to Cao Ling and said with a smile: "Are you going to let me make you a marquis? Or do you want me to make you a prince?"
Amid everyone¡¯s envious expressions, Cao Ling stood up and saluted: ¡°If you reply to your majesty, all your vassals and ministers will be happy!¡±
Next, Cao Ling said with a flattering smile: "Of course, if your Majesty is merciful, it would be best if you can make me a Duke!"
"Go away!" Zhu Youxiao laughed and scolded angrily: "You are the only one who still wants to be a prince? You are so beautiful! There is no reward for you this time, but I can give you two choices!"
When Cao Ling heard that Zhu Youxiao asked him to choose again, he quickly said seriously: "Whatever your Majesty wants me to do, I will do it. There is no need to choose!"
Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said: "Last time you led the troops to destroy the Japanese country, you should be made a Duke, but your age is there. If you become a Duke now, it will not be good in the future. I did it, so I brought you with me this time to suppress you and not let you make any contributions. Originally, I wanted to let you take over the Guards Cavalry after Li Shuai retired, but then I thought of using your ability. If you stay with me, I'm afraid it will be a waste, so I ask you yourself, do you want to lead the Guards Cavalry or do you want to attack Commander Xiong!"
Zhu Youxiao's words were very sensible and reasonable, and he made his thoughts about Cao Ling clear without any concealment. In the eyes of others, everyone envied Cao Ling for being so favored by the emperor, and Cao Ling was also completely moved!
And Cao Ling also understood what Zhu Youxiao meant. Now that the border of the Ming Dynasty has expanded to thousands of miles, it would be difficult to just let Xiong Tingbi hold the line. However, except for Cao Wenzhao, there is no big talent in the border army who can help Xiong Tingbi!
Therefore, Zhu Youxiao planned to transfer Cao Ling to the frontier army. Firstly, he would not bury Cao Ling's talents. Secondly, he would give Xiong Tingbi an assistant. Thirdly, Zhu Youxiao wanted to place an assistant among the generals of the frontier army. Someone you can completely trust!
Don't blame Zhu Youxiao for his political tactics. In fact, he had already received the news that many people in the border army were secretly doing some dirty things. However, these people had a bottom line in their work and did not cause any big problems. , plus the war was serious and these people needed to work hard, so Zhu Youxiao didn't touch them!
This time, Liaodong and the grasslands have all been pacified. It can be said that the mission of the border army has shifted from external combat to internal elimination of remnant enemies for a period of time. Zhu Youxiao will naturally take advantage of this period to deploy his own manpower to completely eliminate the frontier army. The demons and monsters!
Since he understood Zhu Youxiao¡¯s intention, Cao Ling certainly would not disappoint the emperor. He immediately raised his chest and said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to stay in the border army and expand the territory for your Majesty!"
Zhu Youxiao hammered Cao Ling's chest with satisfaction and said with a smile: "I know you know my thoughts. Since you chose to join the border army, I will not treat you badly. The Guards Cavalry and the Blood Banner Army will not treat you badly." You choose two thousand good hands to put up the frame,A question!
"This little emperor said that the war is for profit, isn't that the same as them?"
Oppa rolled his eyes and asked with a smile: "I heard that overseas are barren lands. I wonder how your majesty can profit from these places?"
Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and asked someone to collect the map. Then he walked up the royal steps and sat behind the dragon bookcase. He looked at Oba and the leaders of the tribes who had their ears pricked up with a smile on his face!
When his appetite was whetted, Zhu Youxiao said with a smile: "This is supposed to be a secret, but Tuxie Tuhan, Prince Horqin and the leaders are all our own now, so it doesn't hurt to talk about it!"
Oba hurriedly saluted and said: "Your Majesty, please enlighten me!"
Zhu Youxiao then said: "In fact, it is nonsense to say that overseas is a barren land. The overseas area is vast, but the population is not large, and those people are not well educated. In many places, people practice iron and do not know how to refine it. , the only weapons used in fighting were wooden sticks, but these places produced abundant products, such as silver from the Japanese country, gems and spices from Nanyang, which were all scarce in the Central Plains. After conquering these places, it was natural to take whatever they asked for. In the past two years, the imperial court Just from these two places, the profit exceeds tens of millions of taels of silver, otherwise how would I have the money to support millions of elites?"
After Zhu Youxiao said these words, the eyes of Auba and the leaders of the tribes suddenly lit up!
Isn¡¯t this our old profession?
"What's the point of fighting in all directions? To put it bluntly, isn't it just robbery everywhere?
We are experts at this kind of thing!
¡°When I think about being able to grab so much real money, the leaders of all the tribes feel eager to give it a try!
Buhe said directly: "Your Majesty, I have done nothing, but I was named a prince by your Majesty. Every time I think about this, I feel ashamed. I ask you to lead the troops to fight and expand the territory for your Majesty!"
Oba glanced at Buhe who was stealing his limelight in annoyance, and then said: "Your Majesty, I have your Majesty's trust to lead the Mongolian tribes. In order to show the loyalty of the Mongolian tribes to your Majesty, I kindly ask your Majesty to allow the Mongolian tribes to gather large armies. Fight for His Majesty!"
The leaders of the various tribes also followed suit and said: "Your Majesty, please allow me to fight for your Majesty!"
When Zhu Youxiao saw that these guys had taken the bait, he laughed and said: "My dear friends, you are eager to fight, and you really live up to the reputation of the descendants of Genghis Khan. However, the Mongolian tribes are famous for their cavalry, and overseas expeditions require thousands of miles of boating. The place is mostly densely forested and islands, making it inconvenient for cavalry to fight, so I still say the same thing, I appreciate your kindness, but I can show you a way to make a fortune!"
The leaders of various tribes wanted to fight for the sake of making a fortune. When they heard that Zhu Youxiao was going to give them directions, they immediately said in unison: "Your Majesty, please enlighten me!"
Zhu Youxiao calmly said: "First of all, I will build fifteen cities in the grassland and the roads connecting these cities. The purpose is to strengthen the trade between the Central Plains and the grassland. After the cities are built, you can trade with merchants nearby in the city. The grassland The cattle, sheep, horses, and skins on board can be exchanged for silk, ironware, glass, and tea from the Central Plains. Not only can these Central Plains products be enjoyed by you, but you can also transport these goods to farther places. Naturally, I can exchange for more good things and exchange them with merchants from the Central Plains. I¡¯m afraid it will be difficult not to make a fortune by then!¡±
Facing the pie drawn by Zhu Youxiao, the leaders of the tribes all fell into sweet fantasies, but many people suddenly thought of a question. There is a wasteland farther than the Mongolian grassland, who can they do business with the most?
But this doesn¡¯t seem to be an important matter. As long as you have pasture and herdsmen, you can raise countless cattle, sheep and horses. If you exchange these things for the goods of the Ming Dynasty, you will also make a lot of money!
With such a bright prospect, all the leaders of the tribes smiled happily, and the original unwillingness and resentment in their hearts completely disappeared!
It doesn¡¯t matter whether they are Han or Mongolian!
Who cares about the emperor or the Great Khan!
As long as it makes you rich, why care about the details?
What¡¯s more, the Ming Dynasty¡¯s soldiers and horses were so powerful that even Lin Dan Khan died. What¡¯s the use of continuing to fight?
It¡¯s better to do business honestly and count money, then you can live a comfortable life like this!
And this is exactly what Zhu Youxiao wants to see. He first uses a powerful army to make the Mongolian tribes fearful, and then uses economic means to make the Mongolian tribes completely attached to the Ming Dynasty. When these people react, they will never be able to separate from the Ming Dynasty. Got it!
But Zhu Youxiao knew that this did not happen overnight. It would take decades of subtle changes before the grassland could completely settle down and eventually become the racecourse of the Ming Dynasty and Jiangnan beyond the Great Wall!
Zhu Youxiao saw that everyone was in an enthusiastic mood at this time, so he added another piece of firewood: "This time I summoned all my dear friends in Kulun and held the Naadam Conference at the same time to show the importance of the imperial court to the grassland. I will send war horses to this Naadam Conference. A thousand horses, a thousand oxen, and a thousand sheep, as rewards for the warriors who won the championship on Naadam, please tell your warriors to perform well and not to live up to my expectations!"
The leaders of the ministries hurriedly saluted and said: "I would like to thank your Majesty for the reward!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)??In order to show that the imperial court attaches great importance to the grassland, I will send a thousand horses, a thousand oxen, and ten thousand sheep to the Naadam Conference this time. Warriors, perform well and don't let me down! "
