Chapter Fifty-Eight: A Year of Death Suspended
The next morning, besides, he went to the Beizhen Fusi near Andingmen again, and this time he saw Liu Shouyou, the pacification envoy.
The Beizhen Fu Division is an independent organization, and it is at the same level as the Du Commander and the Commander, so Liu Shouyou enjoys the title of Du Commander, but ordinary people still call him the Du Fu Envoy, and this title is much more scary than the Du Commander.
Liu Shouyou is not scary, on the contrary, he is very literati, medium in stature, well-maintained, if he is not wearing a brocade guard uniform, he is completely the image of a standard civil official.
He didn't wear a python robe, but he must have it, maybe he didn't want to wear it on his body every day.
"It's Brother Yunming, I entered the palace yesterday and didn't see you."
Moreover, when he walked into Liu Shouyou's second hall, Liu Shouyou was burying his head in reading a file, and after seeing it, he walked out from behind the table and said with a smile.
"Besides, I was ordered to meet my lordship." Besides, come forward and salute.
"Don't be polite, you just work near me, you are a neighbor, not my subordinate, you understand this, right?" Liu Shouyou returned the salute with a smile.
"This ...... To be honest, I just received an official document from the Ministry of War and the seal of a commander, and I don't know anything else. And said with a wry smile.
"Then I'll tell you, there is no inner supervisor to explain the emperor's will to you?" Liu Shouyou also seemed surprised by this.
"Nope."
"Okay, sit down first, I'll tell you slowly."
Liu Shouyou sat down on a chair carved from Nan wood, and sat opposite him, and a servant came in, carrying a plate, on which instead of tea, a pot of freshly brewed wine was served.
"Come, it's cold, drink two cups first." Liu Shouyou took the cup that the servant had poured and said.
Besides, I'm in a daze, drinking this early in the morning? It's more fierce than the military attachΓ©.
"Drink, there is a prison behind me, I don't know how many unjust ghosts have accumulated in it, the yin qi is heavy, and if you don't drink a few glasses of wine every day, you can't bear it at all." Liu Shouyou said with a smile.
Besides, when I looked back, I didn't see the prison, and I didn't feel any yin energy.
"When you first arrived, you didn't feel anything, but after a long time, you can feel it, and you will develop this habit of mine when the time comes."
Besides, smelling the aroma of wine, it was his favorite flower carving, and when he drank it, a hot current rolled around him.
"Everyone here drinks?" Besides, he asked curiously.
"Drink them all, as long as you don't drink too much, you'll be fine."
After drinking a pot of wine, Liu Shouyou took out a silk handkerchief to wipe the corners of his mouth, and then said slowly; "The emperor means to let you build a new brocade guard here, this is the name for the time being, how to use it in the future, you have to listen to the emperor's will. This team has to be built by your own hands, not according to the model of Jinyiwei, in that case, you don't have to rebuild, you just have a ready-made person to pull over. β
"What team does the emperor want me to build?" Besides, he was curious.
"It is such a team, which not only has the full characteristics of Jinyiwei, that is, detective, arrest, interrogation, and conviction, but also must be able to go deep into the outside of Cyprus and go overseas to conduct intelligence reconnaissance and collection, which is not the most difficult, the most difficult thing is that this team must be able to fight independently, not relying on any official army, and can fight with various tribes and overseas pirates outside Cyprus under any circumstances."
Besides, I'm stunned, Nima, what kind of troops is this?
Isn't this a team that integrates the CIA, the FBI, and the Navy SEALs, any of them alone is difficult enough, and if you want to play a one-handed game, the emperor's brain is very open.
"Well, it's hard, I honestly don't know how you can do it, it's not my business anyway. The emperor's will is like this, this team is selected by you to recruit and train into an army, first a guard's establishment, and then see that the need can be expanded, for the time being, not the money of the Ministry of Users, but all the emperor's silver, there is no limit to the funds, how much you need to make a budget can go to the palace to spend money, and the personnel need to make a list of resumes These report to the Ministry of War for approval, this is also the procedure, but the recruited personnel must be the children of a good family, and must not let the ruffians as traitors and criminals mixed in, if there is such a phenomenon, you will be unlucky. β
Besides, if you are stunned for a while, you really have to suspect that something is wrong with your ears.
"What's the matter, my lord, I feel like I'm stabbing my hands, this official is not easy to be, to be honest, I was shocked when I heard it, if I was asked to play your role, I would definitely not be able to do it, but the emperor seems to believe that you can do it." Liu Shouyou looked at it and said with a smile.
"Since it's the emperor's will, you have to do it if you can't do it, so take your time." Besides, half of it was to say to Liu Shouyou, and half was to comfort himself.
"Take your time? That's not good, the emperor said, the recruitment and training of personnel must be completed within half a year, and they can be pulled to overseas within a year. β
Besides, when he heard this, he stood up, then sat down again, and said with a wry smile: "My lord, you also know that this can't be done at all." If it's a ready-made centaur, even if it's a month, but this ......"
Liu Shouyou smiled: "You told me that this and that is useless, if you really think it's not good, you will go to the emperor to resign." β
Besides, he was discouraged: "Forget it, I'm still waiting to be punished by the emperor." β
"Even if you know each other, the emperor didn't say it explicitly, but I also know what the emperor meant, that is, let you do everything you can to toss, toss to become famous, and it will be unspeakably expensive in the future, if you mess things up, I will be your place of residence behind me, and I will not show mercy to my subordinates at that time." Liu Shouyou said.
"Yes, my lord, I won't trouble you then, just take the medicine and commit suicide." And the vents.
"That'll do fine." Liu Shouyou smiled.
Moreover, although he does not understand military affairs, he also knows that it will take a year or two, preferably three years, for a new army to go from recruitment to training to being able to basically complete all operational requirements. Although there are also those who are pulled into the battlefield after two or three months of assault training, they are basically cannon fodder.
In his previous life, he knew that in World War II, most of the people sent to the battlefield by the former Soviet Union were civilian students who had no training at all, and as a result, the Soviet army suffered a particularly large number of casualties on the battlefield, and the number of prisoners was particularly alarming, which was the result of insufficient training, or lack of rigorous training.
By doing this, the emperor forced him to death, which was basically a death sentence with a one-year reprieve.
Of course, there is also a way, not half a year, just a month, that is, to use Murong Yanran's method to transfer all kinds of talents from the Qinwang faction, whether it is reconnaissance and intelligence collection, or arresting and killing, there must be special experts in the Qinwang faction, as for fighting with the nomads or pirates outside the Saiwai, the Qinwang faction will transfer hundreds of masters like Zhou Dingcheng, and then transfer dozens of top masters like Murong Yanran, and they will basically be able to sweep.
As for whether there are so many masters in the Qinwang faction, I believe there are.
However, if he does so, he will expose himself too much, and how can the imperial court tolerate such an "external force", which is bound to concentrate the masters of the inner world and wipe out this force, and he may not be able to escape the law.
In any case, he only has one year, and then he is on death row, isn't it really the same as a one-year delay in death?
Borrowing troops from Qi Jiguang is a way, and I believe that it can be done by relying on Zhang Juzheng's face. However, Qi Jiguang only trained soldiers who went into battle to kill the enemy, and the rest of the tasks may not be completed by these people.
He turned his mind and thought of another question, why did the emperor let him take people to go outside the country and toss overseas, and he didn't go through the procedures of the six departments, and the emperor paid all the funds out of his own pocket?
He couldn't figure it out for a while, but since the emperor paid out of his own pocket, this money was not easy to take, it was too hot.
"My lord, you think slowly, to be honest, I don't understand the things here, and I don't want to understand them, I can only wish you good luck, and I also wish you not to fall into me." Liu Shouyou said with a smile.
"Your Excellency, you're busy." Besides, he's busy.
"By the way, there is one more thing, the emperor asked me to take you to visit our famous edict prison and see the various torture instruments there, saying that it will open your eyes." Liu Shouyou looked at the situation with interest.
Besides, he immediately shuddered: "My lord, this can't be done another day, the impact is too great, I can't accept it at once." β
"Okay, I'll show you around when you're ready." After Liu Shouyou finished speaking, he sat back behind his huge table and read the file, and he didn't know who was unlucky and was about to fall into his hands.
Moreover, looking at the file in his hand, he secretly prayed for the man: Brother, kill yourself quickly.
Besides, after sitting there and thinking about it for a long time, it was still chaotic, so he looked up and said, "My lord, do you still have wine?" β
"Yes, I'll have another pot delivered. It's good, it's teachable, and you can learn to develop good habits with me so quickly. Liu Shouyou said with a smile.
"It's not a pot, it's a jar." Besides.
"A jar of wine? You want to be better than the blue, but this speed is too fast, it seems that you can really fulfill the emperor's will. Liu Shouyou was a little surprised, but he still didn't forget to tease a few words.
He high-fived the servant and asked him to send another jar of flower carvings, and it should be cooked.
After listening to it, the servant could stuff a goose egg into his mouth, but he didn't respond for a long time, Liu Shouyou commanded in a deep voice, and the servant woke up like a dream and ran down to prepare wine.
"What? I can't think of it so quickly, getting drunk to death is also a very elegant way, in line with the habits of our literati, but it is not easy to simply get drunk to death, the best way is to get drunk and bury it in the snowdrift, this is the most comfortable way to die, Yongle Nian University scholar Xie Jin is such a way to die, and he also died in Jinyiwei, but that is Nanjing Jinyiwei. Liu Shouyou babbled.
"My lord, don't make fun of me." Besides, he said goodbye.
"You're not trying to kill yourself?" Liu Shouyou looked surprised, and the scene was very full.
"Why should I commit suicide, it's that my body is cold, like the adults said, you have too much yin here, and you can't bear it without drinking." Besides.
"Okay, you can bear such a blow, it seems that the torture tools in the back can't do anything to you, you can also bear it. Why don't we try it in the morning? Liu Shouyou said happily.
"Yes, my lord, that one resolutely refuses to try, and would rather die than try." And let's cut the railroad.
