Chapter 66: Organizing the Army

When the news of Zhu Youlang's victory in Ganzhou came back to Guangzhou, the whole city was decorated with lights, and countless soldiers and civilians rushed to tell each other, especially those businessmen who spontaneously celebrated, all because of Zhu Youlang's opening of the sea, which allowed them to have great development.

"Brother Qu, this majesty still has to fight to the death with the Tartars, this is not appropriate, we can't come up with so much money now." Yan Qiheng looked at Qu Shiyun seriously, he hoped that Qu Shiyun could persuade Zhu Youlang.

Qu Shiyun frowned and thought for a moment: "Squeeze it, now is a rare opportunity, if Your Majesty can win, then Erguang will be stable, and then we will carefully govern Erguang, and great things can be done." ”

"The problem is that now the treasury is no longer squeezed, the capital is newly established, and it costs money in all aspects, not to mention, Your Majesty still has to do so many things." Yan Qiheng retorted eloquently.

But Qu Shiyun didn't see it that way, he took a few account books and pointed to it: "After Your Majesty's examination of the law, now the parents and officials in the following places are extremely cautious, and the taxes have obviously increased. ”

"Brother Qu, why don't you understand, have you ever thought that Your Majesty won the victory in Quanzhou and took Huguang, this government affairs cannot be compared with Guangdong, Your Majesty will continue to implement it like this, and if you don't withdraw the army at such a time, you will be in charge of Guangdong Province, and then the Northern Expedition will be carried out in one fell swoop after the military and financial resources are sufficient."

Qu Shiyun was silent, he understood that Yan Qiheng was translating, this was worried about the power of the warlords in Huguang, their business in Huguang was not comparable to Zhu Youlang for a long time, if he was not careful, it would be a turmoil, if it could not be solved, it would inevitably be another Guan Ning, which would suck up the new court.

"We ought to trust Your Majesty." After thinking for a while, Qu Shiyun's eyes looked at Yan Qiheng firmly: "Your Majesty has come all the way from Zhaoqing, relying on himself, we should believe him, even if we lose, as long as Ganzhou is still in our hands, Guangdong will be safe." ”

"Ugh." Yan Qiheng looked away with a disappointed face: "Now it's not a question of whether you can win or not, but Your Majesty blindly marching north and taking Huguang and Jiangxi is just a waste of strength." ”

Saying that, Yan Qiheng pointed to the map and said: "With the power of one province, it is not enough for the Northern Expedition, it is better to quickly digest Guangxi, and then move westward to stabilize the middle of the country, so that the southwest is all in hand, so, and then concentrate on defending Tongguan, then the southern convenience can be self-satisfied without attacking." ”

"Although you are reasonable, but what is the situation now, the enemy's knives are stretched out to the top of the head, what strategy is still to wait for Your Majesty to repel the Tartars, I think Your Majesty can be in the situation tomorrow."

Yan Qiheng sighed when he heard this, and in the end, Yan Qiheng said with a certain face: "Didn't Your Majesty say that you would urgently send officials to Ganzhou, and the old man will personally lead the team at that time." ”

"Whatever you want, but for now, it is better to carry out His Majesty's wishes." Qu Shiyun took a step back.

In fact, he didn't put too much thought on Huguang by Zhu Youlang, no matter whether Zhu Youlang pushed Zhang Juzheng or not, this is bound to fight with the head snake, and this Wuning will give Tartar a chance.

"Of course, with the cooperation of the current East Factory, the situation of the city is almost clear, the tax system is almost out, and the most important thing is that the time is ripe for the introduction of a whip law."

"Of course, Your Majesty has won this time, come to think of it, no one dares to stand up against it." Speaking of this, Qu Shiyun was in a good mood.

Just when Yan Qiheng set off for Ganzhou with the selected officials, Zhu Youlang, who was in Ganzhou City, looked around at the generals, and a schematic map of military strength hung behind him.

"After this battle in Ganzhou, I found that there was a huge problem with the camps." Speaking of this, Zhu Youlang pointed to the military force with his hand: "Eighty-ten thousand troops, in addition to the 13,000 cavalry battalions, there are 21 battalions and 70,000 eight armies, and more than 3,000 people and one battalion. ”

Zhu Youlang stopped and looked at the generals, and when he saw their puzzled faces, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"I am looking at the military system is a little out of place, I am ready to change the guard battalion system, one guard and three battalions, the guard is a permanent guard commander, the commander is the same knowledge, the command is the officer, the battalion and below remain unchanged, one guard and three battalions, one battalion is the infantry battalion, one battalion is the car battalion, and one battalion is the firearms battalion."

When Zhu Youlang said this, Jiao Lian, Zhang Jiayu, Wang Xing and others all looked at Zhu Youlang excitedly, and after Zhu Youlang saw all the generals with happy faces, he smiled and said.

"There are six guards, a total of eighteen battalions, and one battalion of artillery battalions is nineteen battalions, except for two battalions, one battalion belongs to Dongchang, and one battalion belongs to Jinyiwei."

"Your Majesty, no." Before Zhu Youlang finished speaking, Wang Xing immediately stood up: "We are elite, how can we be a spy." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, they are all armies that can fight well, how can they destroy the city wall."

"Bold." When Zhang Jiayu stood up to answer the call, Ding Siliang stood up very recognizantly and scolded: "Is there any courtesy of a monarch and a minister." ”

As soon as Ding Siliang's words came out, the faces of the generals instantly calmed down, and when Zhu Youlang saw this, he smiled as usual: "Calm down, everyone." ”

Zhu Youlang drank tea, and after seeing that all the generals had calmed down, he stood up and continued: "The army should have the appearance of an army, Wang Xing and Zhang Jiayu will be fined ten military sticks later." ”

After speaking, Zhu Youlang's face turned cold: "My army is not a vegetable market, so I can't tolerate you making noise." ”

As soon as the words fell, the generals immediately stood up and knelt down and said, "Ten thousand people are not going to die." ”

Zhu Youlang's face instantly returned to normal: "Get up, you have to remember that soldiers should take obedience to orders as their duty." ”

"If you don't keep it in mind, you must reflect on it all the time." The generals said in unison.

Seeing this, Zhu Youlang nodded slightly, and he took out a list: "Yu Long led the four guards of the pro-army, Wang Xing led the five guards of the pro-army, Jiao Lian led the pro-army six guards, Yang Keguan led the pro-army seven guards, Xie Furong led the pro-army eight guards, Zhang Mingzhen led the pro-army nine guards, and Zhang Jiayu led the imperial artillery battalion ......" ”

Zhu Youlang arranged the generals of the guard camp in one breath, but when Zhu Youlang said one by one, most of the generals' faces changed greatly, because all their old generals or related to them were not in their own guards, such as the volunteers led by Yu Long, they directly commanded the old Zhaowu army, and Jiao Lian belonged to the commanders of the volunteers, but when Zhu Youlang finished speaking, Zhu Youlang gave a look to Ding Siliang, and Ding Siliang immediately led the big push documents one by one.

"These are the provisions of the new military system, you go down, you must have a good understanding of the dispute with the soldiers, three days later, a drill will be held outside the city of Ganzhou, especially most of the battalion flags have been promoted and replaced, you must do a good job of training."

When the generals turned over the generals below the battalion, their faces changed greatly, because none of them knew anyone at all, and even if they arrived under the team flag, there was no imprint, which made them understand Zhu Youlang's thoughts at once.

This is a complete control of the army, and at this time, I also reacted, why did Zhu Youlang add the word pro-army, if it goes on like this, even if one day, they will not be able to take away a single soldier.

When they calmed down, they admired or admired in addition to admiration. After Zhu Youlang saw that they all accepted, Zhu Youlang opened his voice again: "For the sake of the equality of Zhang Xian and all the guards, so I did not call the feared one or two guards, but started from the four guards. ”
