"What General Zhu said is very reasonable, but it's all just an assumption, have you ever thought about it, now that most of my Ming elite are concentrated in the eastern Liaodong border defense, and they can't be moved lightly, how can there be decent troops to encircle and suppress the thieves?" Another speaker jumped out and said, maybe these officials live to participate in people.

"If we want to have elite troops, we must change the military system, eliminate the old and weak, organize and train new troops, and train them strictly." Zhu Hao said coldly.

"Train the new army, train the new army!" Emperor Chongzhen muttered, and the brilliance in his eyes was even greater.

"It's a good new army to be organized, and it's time for my Ming military system to be improved, otherwise the army can't fight, and the entire country will be ruined!" Emperor Chongzhen stroked his palms and said, "What kind of troops can be regarded as a new army?" ”

"The unified system, high spirit, strict training, and iron-like discipline are just like the Qi family army back then."

"I know it's easier said than done. If you let it go, how long will Uncle Huang be sure that he will be able to build a strong team? "Emperor Chongzhen is full of expectations.

"Forgive the minister's bluntness, the so-called impatience can't eat hot tofu, the disadvantages of the imperial court are not made overnight, and the training of troops to strengthen the country is not achieved overnight, according to the minister's method to train the new army, three years can become an army, five years can destroy thieves, ten years can be leveled!" Zhu Hao pretended to think about it.

"Does it take that long?" Chongzhen frowned.

"This is still the premise of internal unification, Jiangnan stability, and sufficient money and food, otherwise it will be longer! Zhongxing Daming is not a day's work, the emperor is in his prime, why be afraid of ten or eight years, has the emperor forgotten Yuan Chonghuan's five years of Pingliao's nonsense? As soon as Zhu Hao was excited, he shook Yuan Chonghuan out.

Sure enough, Emperor Chongzhen's face changed, and Yang Sichang, the first assistant, hurriedly said: "The emperor is angry, General Zhu is worried about state affairs, and he didn't mean to mention this person." ”

"The minister lost his words for a while, please forgive the emperor, but the minister's loyalty can be seen by the sun and the moon." Zhu Hao knew that he was in trouble and hurriedly made amends.

"Haha, how can I be such a stingy person? The two Aiqing don't have to be like this, I believe in the loyalty of the emperor's uncle. Emperor Chongzhen hurriedly said generously, "I don't know what the emperor's uncle can do, he can train the new army on a large scale and implement a new policy?" ”

"Your Majesty, if the ministers are unwilling, in fact they can't, the so-called greed can't chew too much, implement the new policy, and train the new army If it is carried out on a large scale, it is inevitable that the good and the bad will be uneven, and the effect will be greatly reduced. Zhu Hao said truthfully.

"Well, I was too anxious, but after listening to Uncle Huang's words, I finally have a bottom in my heart, and I will use you as a pilot to organize and train a new army, hoping that you will train as an elite soldier as soon as possible, protect the country and the people, and live up to my expectations."

"The emperor can rest assured, the ministers will be smeared with their livers and brains, share the emperor's worries as soon as possible, and redress the thieves in order to repay the emperor's kindness." Zhu Hao hurriedly expressed his loyalty.

"Haha, good, really ambitious, who dares to say that the royal children are talentless and incompetent, and they are the moths of the Ming Dynasty?" Emperor Chongzhen looked at the group of officials below.

It is said that in the early years of Chongzhen, there was an official who played a song, saying that the people of the clan were prosperous and did not work, and the country spent the world's strength to support it uselessly, and asked for the treatment of the clan. Emperor Chongzhen was young and vigorous, and he had already noticed this, so he prepared to reform it, but then he encountered great resistance and failed, and the official was also dismissed. Emperor Chongzhen was worried about this matter, and today he finally seized the opportunity to vent, and some of the officials disagreed, and some looked embarrassed, and so on.

"Zhu Hao listened to the seal, I named you as the chief soldier of Xu Huai, hung the general's seal, supervised the military of Yan, Xu, and Huai, organized and trained the new army, and eliminated the harm for the country as soon as possible!"

"Thank you to the emperor for his grace, but the minister still has one more thing to ask for, please ask the emperor for permission." Zhu Hao thanked him.

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"Since ancient times, the soldiers and the people have not been separated, and there is a good environment for the ministers to train the army.

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the whole dynasty, and many people jumped out to accuse him of being pampered and arrogant, but Zhu Hao ignored it, but stiffened his neck and looked at the emperor aggressively.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at him gloomily for a while, and suddenly remembered the queen's words, and said with a smile: "It is reasonable, the so-called employment is not doubtful, I will appoint you as the governor of the political envoy as the chief soldier, and I will also make you the lord of the East China Sea!" ”

"Thank you to the emperor, so the minister can concentrate on training the army, and repay the emperor's kindness as soon as possible." Zhu Hao was overjoyed and lost no time in expressing his loyalty.

Sun Chuanting and Hong Chengchou glanced at each other, both thinking that this young man was so bold! Dare to ask the emperor directly!

In fact, Emperor Chongzhen is also helpless, the generals and soldiers don't ask him for food and salary, it's already good, if he doesn't even give financial power to others, it's really unreasonable, Hong Chengchou supervises Shaanxi Bian is also like this, and in this way, the new army will be branded by the imperial court, and he is not afraid that Zhu Hao will support the army and be self-respecting.

He had a good calculation here, but he didn't know that Zhu Hao didn't look down on the money at all, and he wanted to come to the power of the political envoy, in order to transform this base area according to his own wishes. In the end, both sides were happy.

The court meeting has been talking about itself for more than an hour before the meeting ended, Zhu Hao went out of the palace after greeting everyone, and after a while, a carriage came up, it turned out to be Sun Chuanting and Hong Chengchou.

The three of them saluted, and Hong Chengchou said: "Mingfeng, you are really bold enough, you actually asked the emperor and important officials, but it frightened the two of us." "yes, Ming Feng, I really don't know what you think." Sun Chuanting complained.

"Hehe, there are two adults who are worried, and the sins of the students are also. I said this on purpose, for two purposes. Zhu Hao knew that the two of them had questions, so he smiled.

"What's the mystery in that?" Hong Chengchou was a little surprised by the wonderful idea of this young talent.

"The two adults have lived in the court for a long time, so they are naturally familiar with the emperor's temperament, but they are both upright people, and they can't compare to those who don't learn all day long and specialize in studying Tianyan, so it's not surprising that some things can't be figured out." Zhu Hao slapped a sycophant without a trace, and then said: "With the talents of the two adults, it is easy to pacify the thieves, but why can't they be killed repeatedly? It's not that the two of you are wrong, but the court officials are just hindering, and our long-live lord is suspicious by nature, and I always think that the two of you support the army and respect yourself, what if something goes wrong? In this way, the courtiers are obstructed, and the emperor is suspicious, how can the two of them have great merit? ”

"Ming Feng's words are reasonable, and the two of us also know that the court is like this, but they can't help it." Sun Chuanting shook his head and sighed, while Hong Chengchou looked at him eagerly, with some admiration, feeling that this young man was really unfathomable.

"I don't know if you two have found out, since Yuan Chonghuan, no matter how domineering the Liaodong generals are, as long as they don't commit treason, they are rarely questioned, and the treatment is very different from that in the Guannei."

"That's true, you don't say I haven't noticed, what's the reason for that?" Hong Chengchou asked.

"Without him, the emperor has exhausted the world's financial resources to build the elite of Guanning, how dare he easily punish these generals? Isn't that self-destructive? Therefore, I desperately want to be an official, the reason is to let the emperor remove his suspicions, so that he can train with peace of mind, otherwise I have the talent to ascend to the sky, and it is useless, I have reached the point where I have to restructure! Otherwise, the world will be ruined! Zhu Hao sighed.

"Listen to your words, it's better to read a book for ten years, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, Yan Yan, you and I are old!" Sun Chuanting smiled bitterly.

"But why was Yuan Chonghuan executed?" Hong Chengchou was a little puzzled, lowered his voice and continued: "There are no outsiders here, everyone knows that Inspector Yuan was killed by a counter-plot, and I am afraid that the emperor also knows." ”

"That's because Lao Yuan is a civil official and will never rebel, so he was easily killed." Zhu Hao said sloppily.

Sun Hong and the others glanced at each other, nodded at the same time, and instantly understood the key.

"Please forgive me, why is the emperor so relieved of you?" Hong Chengchou asked.

"Because I am a member of the clan and a member of King Lu's line, the emperor is more at ease with me than anyone else." Zhu Hao spread out his hands and smiled bitterly.

I see! The two of them suddenly realized, looking at him more and more differently, how long is this person's brain, but he is so far-sighted at a young age, he will become a great weapon in the future! How do they know that this kid has been a human being for two lives, and these histories are well memorized?
