Chapter 64: I follow the law

Listening to Liu Xian's words, Zhu Yijun was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Liu Xian with interest, this old man is obviously more interesting than Yu Dayou!

After pondering for a moment, Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "I hope that Jingying can restore the glory of Chengzu and chase the north." ”

"As long as Your Majesty supports the ministers, it is not impossible to do it!" Liu Xian's face didn't change, but he said lightly.

This time, it was Zhu Yijun who became interested, looked at Liu Xian and asked: "Okay, you can talk about it, but the ugly words are now in front, I don't like people who amplify words." ”

In the next few decades, there will be a Yuan Chonghuan in the Ming Dynasty who loves to shoot guns, is there still a Liu Xian?

"There are several elements of a strong army, and the minister thinks that the first thing is the soldiers." Liu Xian said directly, not polite at all: "The soldiers in the Beijing camp are not good, if the emperor wants to strengthen the army, then he must select soldiers." ”

This time Liu Xian was out of the way, he used to fight in southern Xinjiang, and once thought that he was going to die of old age in southern Xinjiang.

I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to enter Beijing in this life, and I would have the opportunity to face the saint, but if I couldn't succeed, Liu Xian felt that he could say what he wanted to say. Anyway, if the emperor is disgusted with himself, then he will go home to support himself.

"The new army does not mean that it cannot fight, if the soldiers are good and well-trained, they can become elite soldiers after a few battles."

"If the soldiers are not good, the training is not good, and the war is just a run away, and even the bandits cannot be defeated. The key is that these people can't be trained, and it's useless to fight a few battles, so the minister said that soldiers are very important. ”

Zhu Yijun nodded, a very good point of view, and also very insightful.

Seeing Zhu Yijun nodding, Liu Xian continued: "Most of the officers and soldiers in Beijing are hereditary, and the children of the powerful are rampant, and the results of several training sessions are not good. If you want to completely reorganize the Beijing battalion, you must select soldiers. ”

"Tell me what you want to do?" Zhu Yijun looked at Liu Xian and said, "If you want to train troops from the selection of people, I might as well let you train the new army." ”

"The minister is going to conduct an assessment of the Beijing camp, and all the unqualified ones will be dismissed, whether it is an officer or a soldier, whether it is a son of a powerful person, or a grace and a son, all of them will be dismissed from the Beijing camp."

Liu Xian said this, raised his head again and said: "The shortage is recruited from the people, and it is best to recruit troops from the disaster-stricken areas." ”

"First, being a soldier and eating food can give them a way to live, and second, if they can endure hardship, they will be able to endure training. If Your Majesty can let the ministers do it, then the ministers will definitely be able to train an elite army. ”

Zhu Yijun looked at Liu Xian, you really dare to say it, and you really dare to do it.

In his heart, Zhu Yijun naturally has such thoughts, but if he really wants to do this, it is really not easy, there are too many things involved. Zhu Yijun also thinks that this matter is still immature, so he has been a little hesitant.

However, Zhu Yijun also knows that if he really does this, how much pressure he will face will be.

At this time, Zhu Yijun thought of Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Juzheng was not there, and he was facing the pressure head-on, if Zhang Juzheng was there, then he would share the pressure with him. Glancing at Liu Xian, Zhu Yijun's heart moved.

This is a veteran, he has fought for the Ming Dynasty all his life, his beard is white, and he is covered with scars.

But even so, he did not spare his life, he saw the intention of promoting him to the rank of admiral, and he knew what he would face if he did so, but he did not hesitate to lose his reputation.

What are you afraid of? Your own blood is cold? Or are you stuck in playing with power?

"Yes!" Zhu Yijun's face was expressionless, the corners of his mouth opened slightly, and he only said two words lightly.

Liu Xian raised his head and looked at Zhu Yijun, his face was full of surprise, and even his body trembled: "Your Majesty, is this true?" ”

In fact, it is inappropriate to ask the emperor like this, but Liu Xian was really excited, he didn't think that the emperor would agree, but the emperor agreed, how could Liu Xian not be excited? When he received the decree to appoint himself as the admiral, Liu Xian was looking at what he should do.

In the past, there were civil officials on his head, and it was impossible to show his skills, but this time it was different, he was the emperor above.

How to keep the official system of the admiral and how to keep the admiral from becoming an empty shelf, Liu Xian thought all the way. In the end, Liu Xian figured it out, that is, to hold power. From the beginning of the selection, be sure to hold it in your hand.

The selection of soldiers and the promotion of military generals are all decided by themselves, rather than relying on the recommendation and promotion of civilian officials.

"I have a golden mouth, so naturally I will forget it!" Zhu Yijun looked at Liu Xian and said loudly: "I am a great tomorrow, I can do what I say, I can do it, if anyone is dissatisfied, I will make the decision for Aiqing." ”

Liu Xian charged into battle in this matter, and Zhu Yijun had to support him behind his back, otherwise he wouldn't be able to do it.

"Command!" Liu Xian knelt on the ground and said loudly.

Zhu Yijun could see Liu Xian's trembling body and sighed, maybe he disrupted his plan, maybe he didn't coordinate with his own pace, but when he planned and coordinated his pace, could he still meet someone like Liu Xian?

"Get up!" Zhu Yijun waved his hand and said: "Go on, I have given you the power to select soldiers, and I will let the celebrant and eunuch Zhang Cheng do this with you." Rest assured, he doesn't interfere with anything, and if there is trouble, he will deal with it. ”

Let Zhang Cheng go, mainly to support Liu Xian, showing Zhu Yijun's attitude.

"The second thing is money." Liu Xian said directly: "When the soldiers are paid, corruption in the army is frequent, and less than thirty percent of it is in the hands of the soldiers, and there are many children of the officers and magnates in the Beijing camp, and the emperor allows the ministers to severely punish the corrupt ink." ”

"No!" Zhu Yijun waved his hand and said directly: "I will ask the Imperial Horse Supervisor to send someone to take charge of this matter." ”

This matter is the most offensive, Zhu Yijun will not let Liu Xian carry it, the most suitable person and institution is Zhang Cheng and the Imperial Horse Supervisor.

There must be a supervisory organ for the army, and Zhu Yijun is ready to build the Imperial Horse Prison into a supervisory organ and intelligence agency for the army. In fact, the emperor's control over the army was not strict, and one of the most important points was that the intelligence was not in place.

Another point is jurisdiction, the local government has jurisdiction over the army, this is the most fatal, Zhu Yijun wants to take back this power.

Hearing Zhu Yijun say this, Liu Xian felt that something was wrong, let the eunuch do it? However, he also knew the pressure and risk of doing this, and he also knew that this was Zhu Yijun's love for him, so he said directly: "The minister's decree." ”

"You don't have to worry about the military salary, in the future, the military salary in the Beijing camp will all be directly allocated by the household department, and the military salary will be paid in full to the Admiral's Yamen, if someone is greedy for ink, you can play it directly to me." Zhu Yijun didn't believe it, who would dare to take the money that he didn't spend if he had a life.
