Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Your Majesty, please rest assured. I will write a letter back to the teacher in Daming later. I think it will be okay."

    Tong Yuan agreed immediately.

    It¡¯s a casual thing, and selling arms is also good for Ming Dynasty.

    Arms trading is extremely profitable. It can bring a steady stream of wealth to the Ming Dynasty. It can also support its own military industry enterprises and cultivate military industry technology and workers. Once these weapons are sold, it can cause troubles around the world. It is really important to the Ming Dynasty.  There are many benefits.

    "Thank you so much~"

    Kansu II immediately smiled even more happily, then clapped his hands, and soon several beautiful Egyptian girls came up.

    "Master Tong, this is a little gift from me, please accept it."

    Tong Yuan looked at Kansu II, then at some beautiful Egyptian girls, and suddenly felt a little sore in his waist.

    This is not the first time that  The beauties sent by Kansu II had only been here for a few years. Over and over, Kansu II had already sent more than a dozen Egyptian beauties, and even made a bunch of children.

    "Thank you, His Majesty the King~"

    Tong Yuan smiled and finally accepted it.

    "Haha, as long as you like it."

    When Kansu II saw Tong Yuan accepting it, he was also very happy. It was just a few women, as many as he wanted.

    Then he thought about it and said: "The amount of arms I purchased this time may be larger. I am planning to form an army of 30,000 musketeers. I want to refer to your army of the Ming Dynasty."

    "I wonder if your country is willing to sell arms and weapons for the one-time purchase of 30,000 troops?"

    Kansu II knew very well that the most powerful army in the world today was the army of the Ming Empire. By reading the newspapers of the Ming Dynasty, plus the news from various countries.

    He knew about the Ming Empire¡¯s army sweeping across all directions.

    In Europe, England, France, and Portugal were beaten and unable to hold their heads high, so they could only make peace with the Spanish, cede territory to the Ming Dynasty, and pay indemnities.

    In Asia, the Ottoman Empire was beaten hard, and the Ottoman Empire signed the "Erzinjan Agreement" that was humiliating and humiliating. Not only did it cede the South Caucasus to the Ming Dynasty, but it also had to bear a huge compensation of hundreds of millions of taels of silver.

    Last year, the powerful Kazakh Khanate and Siberian Khanate were destroyed, and the entire vast land east of the Ural Mountains was included in the vast territory of the Ming Empire.

    Even the vassals, colonies, and vassal states under the Ming Empire are all better than the others. The entire South Asian subcontinent has been carved up by them. East Africa has also been divided into seven or eighty-eight, and is now expanding to West Africa.

    ãá reduce &#5 5 5 z¡¡w.co¡¡m ãá.  It can be said that the army of the Ming Empire is definitely the most powerful army in the world.

    If you can have a powerful army similar to the Ming Empire's army of 30,000 people, let alone the feudal military nobles in the country, you will have no problem sweeping across the surrounding areas.

    "An army of thirty thousand musketeers?"

    When Tong Yuan heard this, he was slightly surprised.

    Thirty thousand musketeers is not a small number. You must know that even the powerful Ottoman Empire only has 30,000 pure musketeers. This little Egypt actually wants to create an army of 30,000 musketeers.  , which shows the appetite of Kansu II.

    "Of course there is no problem with the weapons and equipment of an army of 30,000 pure musketeers. Our Miyun Arsenal in Ming Dynasty has extremely strong productivity. Not to mention 30,000, even equipment for 300,000 people can be produced for you in one year.  .¡±

    "But according to the construction plan of our Ming army, if we follow the example of our Ming Empire's army, just 30,000 muskets will cost at least several million taels of silver."

    "In addition, it must be equipped with corresponding artillery, bayonets, helmets, military uniforms, military boots, etc. All in all, it will be very difficult to complete without ten million taels of silver."

    Tong Yuan also knew a little about Ming Dynasty¡¯s foreign arms sales, and he also learned some of Liu Jin¡¯s tricks to deceive people.

    Since you said you want to learn from the Ming Dynasty¡¯s army, then fine, everything will be arranged for you.

    Not only muskets and artillery are required, but also bayonets, which have little technical content, are made for you. A bayonet is pressed out with a steam stamping machine in the Ming Dynasty, and then extremely polished and polished. The manufacturing cost is  Less than thirty coins, but as long as??You have five taels of silver.

    In addition, helmets, military uniforms, and military boots must not be missing, otherwise they will not have the momentum of the Ming Empire's army. As for the price, it is all combined with arms and weapons. Naturally, it is not cheap. It can be given to the clothing and shoe factories in the Ming Dynasty.  Get a wave of orders back.

    "Ten million taels of silver!"

    When Kansu II heard this, his eyes widened slightly, it was really unbelievable.

    Because the price was beyond his imagination. In his opinion, one million taels of silver was as high as the sky. Who knew it would cost tens of millions of taels of silver.

    "This is too expensive!"

    Kansu II sighed and shook his head.

    "Your Majesty, this is indeed expensive~"

    "And this is just the equipment. According to our Ming army, in addition to these, a soldier must at least be equipped with a war horse, a saber, a bow and arrow, a full body of armor, and a month's worth of food.  The standard is one tael of silver, and the average salary is five taels of silver, plus other items."

    "After all, it costs more than two hundred taels of silver a year to raise a soldier in my Ming Dynasty!"

    Mi He Mi.  "This is an important reason why our army of the Ming Empire is able to sweep across all directions, because we have always given our soldiers the best and the best treatment."

    Tong Yuan nodded solemnly. If you want to imitate me, the Ming Dynasty, let alone an army of 30,000. With the national strength of Egypt, even 10,000 will be very difficult.

    Of course, Tong Yuan¡¯s words are obviously a bit exaggerated. All kinds of equipment are calculated according to the price of foreign military sales. In fact, if purchased by the Ming army, they are all very cheap.

    This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading, there will be more exciting things to come!

    A musket costs one or two hundred taels of silver when sold to foreign armies, but only a dozen taels of silver when sold internally to the Ming army. At this price, the arsenal still makes a huge profit.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????? These are all based on market prices. In fact, the horses of the imperial army are free of charge. They are all collected from the nomadic tribes in the Ming Empire through taxes.

    Farmers farmed and paid taxes on grain, while herdsmen paid taxes on horses for grazing, which was called the horse tax. The horses collected from the horse tax were given priority to the military, and any surplus was paid to the Ming Dynasty treasury.

    In addition, the Ming army also had a large number of excellent pastures belonging to the army, which were specially used to breed and graze war horses.

    ??From the Hulunbuir Prairie in the east to the Beihai Lakeside, to the high-quality pastures of the Altai Mountains and Tianshan Mountains in the western region, or to the rivers in Central Asia, Yuzi and Yuzi, or to the pastures in the Caucasus region of Nanyun Province.

    The army has a large number of pastures, with vast areas and fertile playgrounds, and a large number of horses. Not only does it meet the needs of the military, there are even a large number of horses that can be sold to the outside world.  &#29306&#22914&#32&#115&#104&#117&#99&#97&#110&#103&#46&#99&#99&#32&#29306&#22914

    Of course, although they are all at cost price, supporting a Ming soldier is still a huge expense. The Ming royal family needs to spend tens of millions of taels of silver on it every year.

    "A soldier spends more than two hundred taels of silver a year?"

    When Kansu II heard this, he was dumbfounded again. He calculated and said, "I heard that your Ming Dynasty has more than one million troops. Doesn't this mean that your Ming Dynasty spends 200 million taels of silver on military expenses a year?"

    It¡¯s not that I don¡¯t know, it¡¯s just that I was shocked.

    " Two hundred million taels of silver, which sold the whole of Egypt, may not be worth much silver, but this is only the military expenditure of the Ming Empire for one year.

    "Haha, that's about right~" ãá reduce 75z¡¡w&#46c¡¡&#111m ãá

    Tong Yuan smiled and nodded.

    "No wonder your Ming Empire is said to be the richest in the world. It is truly well-deserved."

    "It costs tens of millions of taels to form 30,000 pure musketeers. This is really too expensive. I'm afraid I won't be able to afford that much silver."

    Kansu II frowned. Thousands of taels of silver were definitely a huge amount. Even if he was the king of the Mamluk Kingdom of Egypt, he would not be able to come up with such huge wealth at once.

    "Haha, it doesn't matter. With our relationship, I can help you contact Daming First Bank to provide you with a loan and purchase it in installments."

    "In addition, if you want to imitate our Ming army, it is best to hire some retired soldiers of our Ming army to train your army."

    "I can also help you introduce some people in this regard. Of course, the remuneration you can't give is too low."

    Tong Yuan looked at Kansu II and showed a hint of a profiteer's smile.

    It¡¯s better if you don¡¯t have money. If you don¡¯t have money, you can take a loan and earn some interest.

    This kind of loan to the country, the First Bank of Ming Dynasty is the best (Remember the website address of this website: www.hlnovel.com)??You definitely can't give it too low.  "
