Today, under the summons of Chongzhen, Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng, the general of the new army of the Ming Dynasty, Wang Chengen, the eunuch of the Xichang Factory, and Sun Chengzong, a cabinet scholar, gathered in the imperial study, and the telegraph used by Chongzhen for experiments was placed in the main hall of the imperial study. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

After Chongzhen introduced the role of the telegram to several of his courtiers, everyone's eyes lit up, and several of the people present were smart people, and they immediately thought of the important role of this telegram after it became popular.

It just so happened that the New Army had recently suppressed bandits in the vicinity of the capital, and the scope of this crackdown on bandits could be completely expanded, so let the New Army bring equipment and lay down lines while suppressing bandits.

"Sun Aiqing (Sun Chuanting) You are in charge of the training of recruits, how is it now" Chongzhen asked Sun Chuanting, this is the army that Chongzhen has invested all his money, so he is naturally extremely concerned.

"Back to the emperor, the 15W infantry has basically been assembled, and now it is stepping up training, and in the next half a year, it will be able to form combat effectiveness, but in terms of cavalry, due to the problem of war horses, there is no way to pull out the donkey in cavalry training now." Sun Chuanting was a little embarrassed to explain to Chongzhen, after all, the cavalry trained with donkeys, what is the matter.

"What's going on, I don't seem to have lacked the silver of the new army, how can this situation still occur" That is, Sun Chuanting, who died in the battle for the Ming Dynasty in his previous life, so Chongzhen can still be trusted, if he changes to other generals who Chongzhen doesn't remember, Chongzhen would have blown up his hair a long time ago, and it would be strange if he dared to fool his new army like this, and he didn't drag it out and cut it.

"Your Majesty, there is no large-scale horse breeding factory in China now, and the war horses used by the new army are still the war horses exchanged for military rations by Yuan Chonghuan and the Mongolian Ministry," Sun Chuanting said cautiously, after all, the location of the horse exchange is too close to the front line, and it is easy to attract criticism.

"Do you really think that I don't know about these small actions, but I just turned a blind eye to see that you are dedicated to the Ming Dynasty, but what a few Aiqing don't know is that our Jiliao Governor Yuan Chonghuan is not as honest as he said, the scale of his private mutual market is not as small as he told you, there are no horses on the side of the new army, but the 40,000 iron horsemen on Yuan Aiqing's side have begun to gallop on horses in Shanhaiguan" Chongzhen has not yet said something, according to the information sent by the hidden pile that Dongchang ambushed Yuan Chonghuan, Now our Yuan Inspector is preparing to think about how to kill Mao Wenlong, but Chongzhen is not ready to interfere in this matter, Mao Wenlong is not an obedient good thing, with capital, he will support his own army, and if he kills, he will be killed, but as soon as Mao Wenlong dies, the Jurchens may have to invade on a large scale if they lose their scruples, and they must prepare for this aspect early.

"The emperor, Yuan Chonghuan, is a student of the minister, he will definitely not betray the emperor, betray the Ming Dynasty" Sun Chengzong immediately stepped forward to exonerate Yuan Chonghuan, sure enough, the relationship between classmates and master and apprentice in this period is the closest, and these things are done to help exonerate.

"I understand, Sun Aiqing (Sun Chengzong) you send a letter to Yuan Chonghuan, telling him that there is no need to secretly open a mutual market, and I agree to his approach, but I don't want to see my new army being forced to use donkeys to train, and the cavalry of his Yuan Inspector's division has already been formed and roaring through Liaodong." Yuan Chonghuan's cavalry is the future Guanning Iron Cavalry, if Yuan Chonghuan is unwilling to use this army, Chongzhen does not believe that he can make it serve his own death with his own edict, and none of these generals who are far away from the capital will make them worry.

Sun Chengzong doesn't know what to say about his students' practices now, but he just hopes that the emperor is not suspicious of Yuan Chonghuan, otherwise, his students will be in danger.

"The matter of the recruits is solved, it's time to take a look at my other personal soldier, but the current Beijing camp is rotten, and it's time to rectify it, this matter Sun (Sun Chengzong) Aiqing will hand it over to you" Although the 100,000 Beijing camp is rotten, but Sun Chengzong is also a capable person, let him toss maybe he can also make the Beijing camp have some combat effectiveness, it's better than being lazy like this.

"Is the equipment and treatment of the emperor's Beijing battalion the same as that of the new army" He has been idle for many years, watching these young people being entrusted with important tasks one by one, saying that it is false to say that he is not envious, and now the emperor finally remembers himself as an old minister.

"I want to, but a new army costs tens of millions of dollars a year, no matter how much I want, but there is no money, the Beijing camp can be configured according to the original configuration, but I will make up for you with military salaries and weapons or something" The Beijing camp can be cleaned up and used to defend the city or fight the peasant army, the army is barely enough at present, Chongzhen does not plan to expand at present, it is really unaffordable, it is too expensive.

As for the matter of telegraph, I plan to let Xichang establish an espionage department to transmit intelligence, this espionage department is directly responsible to me, and local officials can use the espionage department to transmit news, but no one is allowed to interfere in the operation of the espionage department, and those who violate the order will be directly dealt with as treason and collaboration with the enemy, and they will be killed on the spot." With such a sharp weapon as the Espionage Division, Chongzhen will not be able to hand it over to others, and only by grasping it in his hands can he let it go.

As for the news of the Espionage Department and the reopening of the mutual market, a few Aiqing don't need to take it to the court to discuss, and the ministers can't discuss any results, you go back and write an excerpt and submit it directly, and I will let people approve it.

With the cooperation of Chongzhen's order issued by the new army, the manpower of the West Factory began to go from BJ City to all parts of the country, laying lines and setting up generators. The huge wooden gear turns and stands up with the generator, and the amount of electricity emitted is already considerable.

In order to keep it secret, each craftsman can only be responsible for one part of the generator, and the magnet polishing is completely handled by another group of craftsmen, and all the craftsmen and their families involved were taken to a secret Huangzhuang by the people of the West Factory, and this generation can only live under the care of the West Factory.
