Hearing this, Gao Yingxiang and the others looked at Li Zicheng with admiration! This time, the emperor only gave the number of 1,000 troops, and Li Zicheng, a guerrilla general, could not be fully manned, so it was naturally impossible for them to participate in it again. It's a shame to miss out on such a great opportunity!

Actually, Li Zicheng didn't say one thing. It's that he is unwilling to accept the current status quo, so he cares about the news outside the Hetao, thinking about what opportunities can make him soar again.

Time passed quickly, and half a month later, Li Zicheng selected a thousand men from various armies. Most of these subordinates are Mongols, and they are also the same people among the Mongols who are unwilling to accept the current situation like him, and still want to fight for glory and wealth, and make a fortune and make a fortune and make a wive.

For this matter, Hong Chengchou is also face-saving, when Li Zicheng brought a middle-level officer into Beijing, he actually sent it to the door of the governor's palace in person, so that many people could see it. The treatment Li Zicheng received was very envious, jealous and hateful.

And in the Beijing Division, when Emperor Chongzhen knew that the first person willing to stand up and accept this will was Li Zicheng, he had to admit after a while that Li Zicheng could stand out in the original history, and it was indeed his excellence. At least his sense of smell is very sensitive.

When Li Zicheng led the middle-level officers to Beijing, Emperor Chongzhen looked at the many pamphlets that had already been prepared on the imperial case, and a new idea sprouted in his heart, feeling that he should take this opportunity to do what he had thought about before.

So, the next day, the governors of the five armies and above, the governors of the two and above were all ordered to arrive at the Forbidden City early.

The Governor's Office of the Five Armies, at the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, had great power, and later Taizu made it clear that the Governor's Office of the Five Armies only had the right to command the troops, but not the right to transfer troops, which means that the Governor's Office of the Five Armies was only responsible for military training. The right to transfer troops belongs to the military department, as soon as there is a war, after the emperor's will goes down, the military department deploys generals and troops to go to battle, which is a counterbalance to prevent the generals from supporting the army and self-respecting. But in the late Ming Dynasty, the power of the military department became more and more great, and the governor's office of the five armies was actually reduced to the executive department of the military department, and it faintly became a subordinate yamen.

In this way, the Governor's Office of the Five Armies can be said to be an idle yamen, and even the assessment of hereditary military attachés will not do their best, because the determination of the final results and the selection of the list of military generals must be sent to the Ministry of War for decision.

It is also because of this that these chief officials of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies have almost nothing to do on weekdays, have nothing to do, and even the right to participate in and discuss politics has gradually disappeared. But in the recent year, when Emperor Chongzhen was involved in military and political affairs, he also asked these high-ranking officials of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies to attend. But because of historical reasons, these chief officials of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies almost played the role of spectators, and only when Emperor Chongzhen asked, did he answer. Just like in the last discussion of the war against the captives, Emperor Chongzhen consulted Zu Dashou.

In this case, the civil servants do not care, it is nothing more than a formality. The generals are not excited, they will not have any opinions anyway, they just go to the mud bodhisattva. There is almost a consensus on both the civil and military sides. Only Zu Dashou had gotten the tone of Emperor Chongzhen in the past, so he was a little looking forward to it.

However, it's been almost two years, and in addition to the Jingshi Junior Martial Arts Hall, I haven't seen any substantial improvement in the generals. To be honest, in his heart, he was faintly disappointed. But he also knew that if he wanted to change the status of the general, the resistance was too great. As long as Emperor Chongzhen keeps this in mind and doesn't talk about it, then he can still look forward to it.

At this time, these supervisors of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies gathered in front of the Wuying Palace. Although the weather is already a little cool, the wind is blowing cold. However, they didn't care about this, but after seeing their colleagues, they were all a little surprised, and they couldn't help but be a little surprised when they communicated with each other.

Zu Dashou was overjoyed because they found out that the emperor had given each of them a pamphlet yesterday, which was different and involved in all aspects of military training. Although there are many excerpts from the "New Book of Discipline", there are also a lot of practical things. Zu Dashou has actual experience in leading troops, and at a glance, he knows that the emperor has found a special person to compile it.

For example, the sentry detective who does not collect at night is more detailed than the content in the "New Book of Ji Xiao", and there are even many explanations of specific cases. There is also a description of firearms, how to use them with great power, and how to protect them to reduce the damage caused by firearms. It can be said that the description of firearms is the most detailed and profound in the Ming Dynasty today. There is also an explanation of how to face the severe cold, heat, desert, grassland and other specific environments when marching and fighting......

Zu Dashou probably guessed something in his heart, the emperor is probably going to fulfill the promise he said before. Thinking so, he was looking forward to it.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't let them wait long, and with a sound of "The emperor has arrived", Emperor Chongzhen appeared in front of them.

Zu Dashou and the others hurriedly saluted, and when they peeked at the same time, they couldn't help but be a little surprised.

I saw Emperor Chongzhen wearing a golden helmet and gold armor, riding a high-headed horse in front of them. Behind the emperor, there were also eunuchs such as Fang Zhenghua. In the hands of two of them, they also carried something covered with a red cloth, which appeared to be a plaque.

"Let's go, go to Jingying." Emperor Chongzhen didn't talk nonsense, just waved his hand and signaled to them.

Although Zu Dashou is the governor of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, he is really poor and serves as the temporary deputy commander of the Beijing camp. Therefore, he naturally understood the situation in Jingying, and when he saw the emperor's posture and the thing covered by the red cloth, he was not as inexplicable as other colleagues, but further confirmed his guess in his heart, and couldn't help but be very happy.

Sure enough, after Emperor Chongzhen arrived in Beijing, he did not go to the school field where the new army was trained as usual, but went straight to the Jingshi Primary Military Hall.

Although the first batch of new troops had already graduated from the Jingshi Junior Martial Arts Hall and had already fought in Liaodong. But now there are still students in the junior military hall of the Beijing Division, and they are all low-level officers of the follow-up new army.

With the arrival of the emperor, all the teachers and students of the Jingshi Junior Martial Arts Hall all came out to greet him. Just in the small square in the Jingshi Junior Martial Arts Hall, Qi Qi was full of people.

Emperor Chongzhen's gaze swept over these low-level officials of the Ming Dynasty, and found Li Zicheng and the middle-level officers under him, who stood in the corner on his side, separated from the others by a vacant seat, and the distinction was clear.

Looking at the eyes of these people below, with some excitement and incomprehension, Emperor Chongzhen spoke: "Since the establishment of the Jingshi Junior Military Preparation Hall, it has cultivated many talents for the Ming Dynasty. Now they have made great military achievements in Liaodong, laying a solid foundation for my Ming Dynasty to recover Liaotu, and I am very relieved by this! ”

They naturally heard about the deeds of their predecessors, and when they heard what the emperor said, they were all a little more excited.

"However, they were originally the elite of the millions of border troops selected by me, so although the content taught in the Jingshi Junior Martial Arts Hall is small, it can already allow them to dominate the battlefield." When Emperor Chongzhen said this, his face became a little more serious and said, "However, in the future, the soldiers in the Jingshi Junior Martial Arts Hall will not have such a good foundation as them, so they need to have the ability to learn to kill the enemy on the battlefield step by step." ”

When Emperor Chongzhen said this, he suddenly asked a question: "Do you know why I named it Jingshi Junior Wubeitang in the first place?" ”

Hearing this, whether it was the standing students, Li Zicheng who had just arrived in Beijing, or these chief officials of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, they were all a little surprised, and at the same time a little guessed. But Zu Dashou was already 100% sure by this time, and what the emperor promised at the beginning began to advance further. Thinking like this, although his city is deep, he still can't suppress a smile on his face.

Emperor Chongzhen's question naturally no one would stand up to answer, and he didn't want anyone to answer it, but just used this way of asking and answering himself: "I just want to prepare you with more in-depth knowledge of martial arts, so that you can have a deeper understanding of the changeable battlefield, learn more skills to kill the enemy, and be able to shed less blood on the battlefield!" ”

Speaking of this, he waved his hand, and the two eunuchs holding the red cloth covering the things walked in front of Emperor Chongzhen in unison.

This time, the focus of the audience was focused on the thing covered by this red cloth. Many people are very curious, they don't know what is covered under the red cloth, and what is the relationship with what the emperor just said?

Li Zicheng was also a little puzzled, since he arrived in Beijing yesterday, he has lived in the Beijing camp and come to the junior martial arts hall of the Beijing Division. He was originally excited, but after asking about the situation, he was immediately puzzled. Because the sacrificial wine of the Jingshi Junior Martial Arts Hall is just the birthday of the Governor of the Governor's Mansion and the Governor of the Governor's Mansion, and the lecturers are just ordinary people, so what about the emperor who said that he would teach it himself? Even if it's just a name, it's just a name?

In this case, it is impossible for the emperor to teach in person, right? After all, the biggest one in the Wubei Hall is the governor Tongzhi, and it is impossible for the emperor to live under it. It seems impossible to temporarily remove the position of the governor and the governor of the sacrificial wine for the sake of his own people?

Looking at the things covered with red cloth, Li Zicheng suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, wondering if the emperor's words just now should be for his own people, and set up another martial arts hall?

Thinking of this, Li Zicheng suddenly became a little excited. But then he immediately calmed down, who is he? is just a guerrilla at the border pass, or is he born a thief, how can the emperor set up another military hall for this? Fortunately, no one else knows about this idea, otherwise it will become a joke, and I don't look at how many pounds and taels I have!

He was thinking about it here, but he saw Emperor Chongzhen reach over and uncover the red cloth, and suddenly, a plaque was revealed. Everyone, including Li Zicheng, immediately looked at the words on this plaque.

"Daming High Martial Arts Hall"

It's just seven simple words, but it surprises everyone who knows them, and then excitement ensues.

Li Zicheng opened his mouth even wider, he didn't expect that it was really another martial arts hall, and judging from the name, it was obviously a more powerful yamen. Jingshi primary martial arts hall, Daming senior martial arts hall, Beijing division to Daming, which is more important? Not to mention beginner versus senior! The content of what the emperor said just now is all on this plaque.

Li Zicheng really didn't expect that the emperor's attention to the so-called Siberia would reach such a point that for them, a new yamen such as the "Daming Advanced Military Preparedness Hall" was set up. Thinking that the emperor wanted to teach him personally, he suddenly looked forward to this Ming Senior Martial Arts Hall.

Sure enough, Emperor Chongzhen glanced at the audience and said, "In the future, there will be more than the Jingshi Primary Martial Arts Hall, and I will set up other local primary martial arts halls as needed." And after graduating from the Junior Martial Arts Hall, or the soldiers who have made contributions on the battlefield, it is possible to enter this Ming Advanced Martial Arts Hall for further study, and I will be entrusted with important tasks! ”

Speaking of this, he raised his voice and announced even louder: "This Ming high-level martial arts hall, I will personally serve as the sacrificial wine, and the governors of the Governor's Mansion will ...... for the various departments."

Emperor Chongzhen's later words, few people can listen to them. They were all shocked by Emperor Chongzhen's words just now. Except for Li Zicheng, no one else, including Zu Dashou, expected that the emperor would personally serve as the sacrificial wine of the Ming Dynasty Senior Military Hall. In this way, the status of this Ming Senior Martial Arts Hall will be raised very high. You must know that the liberal arts scholars, the so-called protégés of the Son of Heaven, are only in charge of the palace examination by the emperor. And in the people of the Ming Dynasty Senior Martial Arts Hall, their sacrificial wine is the emperor himself, which is even more protégé of the Son of Heaven than the so-called protégé of the Son of Heaven!

The emperor personally served as the sacrificial wine, and it was reasonable for the governors of the five armies, the highest military attache of the Ming Dynasty, to serve as the secretary of the business. The specifications of this Daming Advanced Martial Arts Hall are so high, I'm afraid that what is taught in it is-like content, and I'm afraid it will also become a place where many martial artists in Daming want to go with all their might!

This time, the governors of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies were also overjoyed. The emperor served as the sacrificial wine, which means that this Ming high-level military hall will no longer be a decoration, and it is impossible for the military department to compete with the emperor. That is to say, the most noble origin among the Ming generals is this Ming high-level military hall; In the future, among the senior generals of the Ming Dynasty, many people will come from this Ming Senior Military Hall. In other words, at least from now on, the power to command the army will truly return to the hands of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies!

They were thinking about it, but Emperor Chongzhen personally led the eunuchs and directed them to a house in the Jingshi Primary Martial Arts Hall and hung the plaque. Looking at everything, everything is very simple, just a plaque and a room, but it has become the hottest place for everyone.

There is no accident, when Li Zicheng and the others were announced by Emperor Chongzhen as the first batch of students, their eyes were almost all jealous and envious!
