The officers of both the senior and intermediate classes studied for a month, and after graduation, they returned to the army with a mission and immediately presided over the vigorous transformation of the army.

The army had been training for the rest of the month, and there had been no change, but the money was paid.

When the old commander returned, with the assistance of the military department and the general staff personnel, they screened and selected the officers and men, and selected those who were capable of fighting and those who were strong to stay, and they were part of the "New Ming Army" and were listed as regular soldiers, but regular troops and field troops.

The eliminated officers and men were diverted, and some of them became mobile township soldiers stationed in various localities, with such a joyful name as "unity soldiers."

Why use "Solidarity Soldiers"?

Nothing else, because the boss Yan Changwu likes the name......

The rest of those who are really not fit for the army will be disarmed and returned to the field, and the court will pay for the dismissal.

It is better than before, the previous imperial court either had no money, or it was deducted by officials at all levels, but now it is different, the imperial court military department attaches great importance to military salaries, ensuring that every officer and soldier can get their income.

An average of 50 percent plus the salary of all regular soldiers!

10 to 20 percent plus salaries for solidarity soldiers!

Officers and soldiers who leave the army are paid adequate severance pay.

The salary is sufficient, and no one is unable to get along with money, so such a major event as the diversion and transformation of the army was easily completed, and it did not provoke much backlash.

Yan Changwu's measures to capture the thief and capture the king first played a great role, and the commanders and generals of all ministries agreed with his governance, and the bosses of all ministries were still like this, and the others had nothing to say.

The troops have changed a lot!

Operational officers and political officers from the Southeast Province are recruited into various units and trained in accordance with the training program of the Southeast Province and in accordance with local conditions.

As a result of the reorganization, new armies were set up in Nanzhili, Jiangxi, Huguang, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, and Guangxi, of which 60,000 Gao Jie and Liu Zeqing were stationed in Nanzhili, 30,000 Liu Liangzuo were stationed in Jiangxi, 30,000 were Huang Degong in Huguang, 30,000 in Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, and Guangxi, and 20,000 in Nanjing, bringing the total number of new troops to 200,000, 60,000 united troops, and 300,000 troops in addition to the independent armies.

These armies are all controlled by the Southeast Province, the military system is like the Southeast Province, the training is also like the Southeast Province, and the food is also the food of the Southeast Province.

The salary is sufficient, the training is sufficient, and the large statue of the leader is hung, and the army only knows the leader, not the Ming Emperor.

With their support, coupled with the tens of thousands of Southeast Army brought by Yan Changwu, Yan Changwu was able to show his strength.

He issued a decree of the state and appointed Yue Qijie (Ma Shiying's brother-in-law) as the political envoy of Jiangxi, Yuan Shu (the son of Yuan Keli) as the political envoy of Huguangbu, and the highest local commander of Lianfa for the three places, and Chen Qianfu (a generation of celebrities) as the political envoy of Zhejiang.

In the study class, Yan Changwu instilled in him the concept of governance: loyalty to the monarch (that is, listening to his words), economic development, and people's livelihood.

Some officials found it difficult to adapt and withdrew from the group, but there were also some officials who rose up from time to time, and Yue Qijie, Yuan Shu, and Chen Qianfu agreed with his ideas and naturally got reused.

However, his set was very controversial among the officials of the Southern Ming Dynasty, and the officials generally believed that this was a huge overthrow of the herdsmen of the imperial court since ancient times!

"Monarchs, ministers, fathers, sons, fathers and sons, the three outlines and five constants cannot be overturned!" In the cabinet, Wang Duo, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, objected.

"We didn't overturn this system, the main thing is to be kind to the people, so that they can live, and provide us with soldiers and tax food!" Shoufu Sun Chengzong said clearly.

Yao Minggong also said: "Mencius said, 'The king is light, the people are important', although we are not to such a point, but to let the people get benefits, it is right!" ”

Cabinet member Ma Shiying said vulgarly: "We eat meat, the people drink soup, and everyone's interests are equal!" ”

As for the development of the economy, the Nanming bureaucrats are generally resistant, believing that the officials are in charge of the people, and how can they manage the meat and eat at home!

If it weren't for the example of the Donglin Party, I'm afraid they would have already knelt down and made a direct admonition!

Their non-cooperation is inevitable, it doesn't matter, Yan Changwu entered the palace to see Yongming Emperor Zhu Youchan.

Nanjing Ming Palace!

The Forbidden City of Nanjing, is the imperial palace built by Zhu Chongba in Nanjing, which lasted more than 20 years before and after the construction, covering an area of one million square meters, and the area is larger than the Ming Palace in Beijing!

The Nanjing Imperial Palace was built in the twenty-sixth year of the Yuan Dynasty (1366), and the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1392) was basically completed. The Ming Palace was the imperial palace of the three dynasties in the early Ming Dynasty, which lasted for 54 years. Until the nineteenth year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty (1421), Zhu Di, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, moved the capital to Beijing, and Nanjing set up Nanzhili, which was still garrisoned by the imperial family and important ministers, and its status was very important.

The Nanjing Forbidden City sits in the north to the south, there are four gates, the south is the noon gate, the east is the Donghua gate, the west is the Xihua gate, and the north is the Xuanwu gate. Enter the noon gate for Fengtian, inside is the main hall Fengtian Palace, the front of the hall is the Wen Building, the Wu Building. After the canopy hall, the body hall. The inner court has the Qianqing Palace and the Kunning Palace, as well as the East and West Six Palaces.

After Zhu Di moved north, for hundreds of years after that, the Nanjing Forbidden City was rarely repaired, and the wind and rain blew it, and the natural damage was serious.

In the fourteenth year of orthodoxy in the Ming Dynasty (1449), thunderstorms fell in the summer and June, and the halls such as the body and the canopy were struck by lightning and caught fire.

In the twenty-first year of Chenghua in the Ming Dynasty (1485), in May, "the wind in Nanjing pulled out the temple tree, destroyed the temple and the beast kiss of the imperial city".

In the first year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty (1522), "in autumn and July, storms, rivers overflowed, and the city walls of the suburban shrines and mausoleums were broken."

……

Yan Changwu brought the guards into the palace, which was his privilege, so some old feudals hated him for being a powerful minister.

He didn't want to be so high-profile, but he didn't imagine that He Jin and Han Xin were concocted by the palace people and died unexpectedly, so it was important to save their lives, what do others think of being able to bite me?

Maintenance workers and material vehicles can be seen coming in and out along the way, and they are busy repairing.

The Qianqing Palace has been repaired, but the scaffolding has not been dismantled, with a burst of lime smell, Yan Changwu asked to see it, and was soon allowed to enter.

His guards were placed outside the Qianqing Palace, lined up in battle formations, and did not move at all!

This place is the heart of the Ming court, the emperor really wants to be unfavorable to the ministers, and he does not dare to do anything here, and even to protect the safety of the ministers, otherwise the matter of the dispute between the monarch and the minister will be appalling.

"I've seen Your Majesty!" Yan Changwu knelt down very respectfully and saluted.

Don't rush anything else, Emperor Yongming is his father-in-law, and it is all worth it.

"That's it!" Yongming Emperor Zhu Youchan waved his hand, and Yan Changwu stood up.

Zhu Youchan has a very good complexion, although he is a puppet emperor, he has a correct mentality, knowing that this position should not be his turn to sit, and now he can sit on it thanks to the "virtuous son-in-law" in front of him.

And he doesn't have the kind of ambition and talent to govern the world, so he almost doesn't have a director, and when something comes to report, he says: "Very good, find the southeast prince to decide!" ”

The loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty were angry, and scolded him behind his back for not being on the wall, and he was not the descendants of the Zhu family.

Because of his attitude, Yan Changwu was very respectful to him, filial piety was generous, and those who dared to disrespect the emperor would be severely punished, so Zhu Youchan lived a comfortable life.

"The southeast prince came to see me, is there something wrong?" Zhu Youchan asked.

"Your Majesty, whenever a new dynasty is established, it will open Enke, so as to attract talents from all over the world and use it for our dynasty!" Yan Changwu played the road.

"Quasi-play!" Zhu Youchan agreed.
