Chapter 141: Nanjing (29)
"The minister is going to ask," Ma Shiying, as the prime minister and minister of military affairs, although he had not yet entered the state, he still spoke first: "I don't know what kind of system the Generalissimo's Mansion is?" β
"The military system is the same as that of the guard office, I plan to build three associations and six standards first, as well as the troops directly under the generalissimo, add up, 30,000 people."
"Your Highness, now the household is ......"
"I know, I know!" Zhu Cihong interrupted him and said with a smile: "The money is from the royal treasury, and there is no need to use the ministry treasury." β
The crown prince is so rich?
For a while, the military affairs department was in a bit of a daze.
The guard office guarding Miyagi is the institution of the Gong Guard, although everyone still doesn't quite understand, under the guard, there are three battalions of forbidden army, how to distinguish between this guard and the ordinary forbidden army?
Although there are still vague places, the shelves for building the army have long been erected, and the forbidden army has been recruited near Kifu, and the three associations have only temporarily made up for the three marks of more than 15,000 amounts, and the household department has been desperately looting, the food is there, the barracks are ready-made, that is, the silver of the Anjia family and a large amount of armor and ordnance, what is needed is a huge amount of money, and now it is impossible to raise it for a while!
The crown prince is refreshing, and the fundraising and formation directly under the Generalissimo's Mansion of more than 30,000 people does not want a penny from the state treasury!
The Military Affairs Department has already assigned an errand, and Lu Zhenfei is in charge of the household department, so he immediately said: "Your Highness, this sum of money is really not small, you need to plan it well......
"I know." Zhu Cihong said with a smile: "It's not that I don't want to receive salaries, military salaries and food, or the Ministry of War will allocate them, but I will pay for the construction of the army myself." β
If according to the standards of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households, it is difficult to say how many things there are from the warehouses of the Ming Military Department and the Ministry of Industry, first of all, it must meet the needs of the forbidden army in the imperial city, and then Zhu Cihong's side. In this way, I am afraid that the family funds of the Nanjing Treasury are simply not enough to give.
Moreover, in recent decades, the law and discipline of the Ming Dynasty have been abolished, and whether it is firearms, weapons, or armor, I am afraid that there are few qualified and many scraps.
Instead of gritting his teeth and fighting a lawsuit with these ministers, it is not good to get into trouble with Chongzhen, it is better to hurt himself: This money, uncle, I am out!
After staying for a while, Ma Shiying smiled and said, "The matter of leading the guards, the ministers don't understand much......
"Lao Ma is really anxious about his surname and straight surname." Zhu Cihong joked: "Others are also vague, so they are not as willing to ask as you." β
"Your Highness forgives your sins."
"What is the sin?" Zhu Cihong smiled and said, "The guards and the forbidden army, of course, must be separated. The military camp system is forbidden, and the soldiers can use good families who do not have yamen gas and market gas. Military attachΓ©s, of course, are hereditary lords and generals. Of course, five is said to be a proofreading, according to the system of assessment, unqualified will be eliminated. As for the guards, of course, they are under the direct management of the minister, I mean, they are the children of the gentry and the generals of the family, of course, the children of the lords can also volunteer to guard the palace gate without being a fool, just make up for it. β
In this way, everyone present is from a Jinshi, which one is not a belly of knowledge?
At that moment, Lu Zhenfei nodded his head first, and said with a smile: "Now the ban on entering and leaving the palace is the Han and Tang Dynasty system, and those who are added to the palace can enter the palace at will, otherwise it will be approved by the royal department and the guards." Guards, using these children is equivalent to the Han Dynasty's Langguan Sui's Qianniu preparation, isn't this the truth? β
"Yes, it's just for everyone to do something." Zhu Cihong joked: "At this time, the country is struggling, and it is just a moment to see everyone's conscience." Of course, the imperial court did not make people work in vain, so they made up for it, and they were on an errand with peace of mind. If there is no chaos, the future of the garrison will be given to a place, and those who are willing to do the forbidden army will be the commander of a battalion. When the errand is meritorious, recorded in the first class, guerrilla general, the future of the first battalion with the band, how is it, is it not bad enough? β
"It's not bad." Ma Shiying said with a smile: "The second son of the minister, he doesn't like literature but likes martial arts, just right, please make up for it as a guard, I don't know if His Royal Highness will allow it?" β
"Don't tell me about this, talk to Feng Yuanbiao." Zhu Cihong said with a smile: "But the prime minister's son is a guard, I'm afraid there is no reason to disallow it, right?" β
He smiled again: "But I want to explain here first, Feng Yuanbiao's surname, he manages people, but he really talks about the rules, if he ......"
"Might as well as that!" Ma Shiying hurriedly said: "The courtiers are cautious and careful, and they will definitely be at ease on errands and obey discipline." β
"That's good!" Zhu Cihong smiled and looked at the rest of the people, Wang Jiayan Shili is a family heirloom, of course there is no son who practices martial arts, Lu Zhenfei and Wu Weiye's sons are still young, Qian Qianyi frowned as if something...... He didn't have the son of a guard, and I'm afraid his heart was full of regret.
Who is not shrewd, who can't see it, if there are children in the family who can't get into the jinshi, making up for this guard is really a shortcut to the south?
The promise of those officials is two-said, make up for the close servants, and get closer to the emperor and the prince than the ministers in the service, after a few years of hard work, Jane is in the emperor's heart, let it out, is not better than being an official? Even if you don't let go, you have been serving in the palace and protecting the emperor, it is always much better than Qiu Ba, who is a serious child!
As for the lack of money, it even vaguely means that the utensils and armor, as well as food and clothing, have to be reimbursed by themselves...... Compared to the benefits given by the imperial court, what is this!
is really willing to be a halberd for the palace, who cares about such a small amount of money!
As for the imperial court, it also saved a lot of money. It is rare that there are many children of the family, whether it is a civil official, a lord, or a military family, and the children sent are not much more reassuring than those recruited in the people? In these years, of course, there are corrupt gentlemen, but there are probably not many young people who can carry knives on duty.
It saves a lot of money, the safety of the palace is also guaranteed, and it can also raise future talents for the country...... It's also a shame that the prince can think of it!
Of course, invisibly, it is also to tie many families at both ends of the first rat back to the chariot of the Ming Dynasty, people have selfish intentions, and the current Son of Heaven guards are doing it first, so they naturally look forward to the children of the family, of course, they also hope that the Ming Dynasty can be good, don't be so slippery...... At this level, I'm afraid many people can't think of it...... In fact, these changes in front of us are to slowly bring back the hearts of the gentry, the nobles, and the generals. The fall of the Ming Dynasty was due to several major reasons, such as the inability of finances and the army to fight, the inefficiency of central decision-making and local implementation, and the lack of solidity of the people's hearts, and it seemed that overnight, all strata of the country abandoned the dynasty.
If it weren't for the shaving order, if you look at the whole country, how can there be real resistance?
But Zhu Cihong can't just sit here and wait for the shaving order to come, right?
Now like this, Nanming is about to become Nanqing, and there is really no way...... Ready-made examples, predecessors, posterity, easy to use, practical ...... It's all hand-twisted.
As for the experience of further apost, he wanted to use it, but he didn't dare.
β¦β¦β¦β¦ The military system of the Generalissimo's Mansion and the scale of the army, from the current point of view, Zhu Cihong's ambition is not too big. The number of 30,000 or so soldiers is about the same as that of a strong feudal clan now.
However, counting the soldiers and horses under his command, there are now more than 20,000 remaining embers of Liu Zeqing's department, Lu Zhenfei's Huai'an appeasement standard and thousands of Caoyun's Cao standard soldiers and horses who have been dismissed, Liu Konghe and other troops of several thousand people, Yangzhou Gao Qiqian and Huaiyang Town's soldiers and horses, there are all kinds of soldiers, these are called by Zhu Cihong The local garrison soldiers and horses have been strengthened There are more than 30,000 people, and Sun Chuanting of Xuzhou, who doesn't know now, the old Sun Tou has long been subdued by the prince, and the governor of Henan and Shandong provinces has been selected, who else can he be?
Sun Chuanting has thousands of Qin army soldiers under his command, plus more than 30,000 elite soldiers under Gao Jie's department, and nearly 10,000 mules and horses, which is also a very considerable force.
To be honest, the current Ming armed forces are probably the strongest in Xuzhou.
The prince himself was enriched by 5,000 elites and six rates as the backbone, and expanded into a strong army of 30,000 people, if the Fengyang and Luzhou garrisons directly obeyed the order, the existing battleable army of the Ming Dynasty, except for Zuo Liangyu, had already fallen into the hands of the prince.
Of course, it is doubtful whether things can go so smoothly.
Outside of the military system, it is an auxiliary institution at all levels of the government.
Changshi and Sima joined the army from the same product, and each led the military administration department, the military order department, the military training department, the military intelligence department, the military justice department and other departments, the role is clear at a glance, needless to say, the news department, the clean government department, etc., but people feel quite puzzling.
However, Fang Yizhi is being used by the third division of the news department, and there are two deputy directors of the fourth product, one is waiting for Fang Yu, and the other is Zheng Yuanxun, who has arrived in Huai'an, all of whom are the backbone of the restoration of the society, and it is really very appropriate to use them to take charge of the news department!
Before noon, the news paper issued by the news department has been sent all over the city, literate and illiterate, all already know, the crown prince worships the generalissimo, imitating the system of the Tang prince leading the army to supervise the country, the crown prince does not stay in Nanjing, but wants to lead his troops to the front, for the Ming Dynasty to play a Zhongxing situation!
β¦β¦β¦β¦ After coming down from the court meeting, in the cabinet, Zhang Guowei was born to be a person who does practical things, and the Ming Fa edict that was transferred was passed by him, and he handed it over, handed it over, and issued it.
Then there are the ministry affairs summarized by various departments, and it is also the war industry of him and Wang Duo, who are busy every day until they fall to the west, and then they have to go back.
In contrast, Li Banghua's energy is already low, after all, he is more than 70 people, and Shi Kefa takes care of the overall situation, and he has less to manage in detail, and now the most worrying thing about this cabinet is nothing more than the lack of salaries and weapons, and the ministries and institutes have not made up for it until now, and there are still vacancies among the ministers of the temple, those who ask for leave, and a lot of Ding worries.
Among the cabinets, the most idle is Gao Hongtu, he is in charge of the household department, and now the household department has no silver, no matter how it is said, there is no money, so he simply walks around with tea every day.
