In the Ming Dynasty, there were more than 1,000 post stations in the country, of which Sichuan had the most, and there were 199 water and land post stations in total. How to rectify the post station has become a major problem facing Zhu Youxiao.

Today's post stations are actually used by many private individuals. It's not that military affairs and government affairs can be delivered quickly, many businessmen are also using post stations to transmit information, and the eight-hundred-mile expedited service also serves businessmen, after all, businessmen have money, just bribe the post man.

Just when Zhu Youxiao was thinking about how to rectify the post station, Xiong Yanbi had already entered Beijing.

Zhu Youxiao hurriedly summoned Xiong Yanbi, and after Xiong Yanbi saw it, he asked Zhu Youxiao: "I don't know what happened to His Majesty summoning Wei Jianchen?" ”

Xiong Yanbi was very calm in front of the emperor, and he was unofficial anyway.

"Xiong Aiqing, I summoned you this time to ask you to inspect the Nine Sides on my behalf and rectify the military discipline of the Nine Sides. What does Xiong Aiqing think? Zhu Youxiao asked Xiong Yanbi.

"Your Majesty, the discipline of the nine-sided army is abolished, and the military generals oppress the military households, if you don't rectify it, it will be difficult for the nine-sided army to be peaceful." Xiong Yanbi's expression suddenly cheered up, and he didn't have the attitude he had before, and said very happily: "Weichen is willing to inspect the nine sides for His Majesty." ”

"Okay, Xiong Aiqing is willing to patrol the nine sides for me, and I am the most assured." Zhu Youxiao said happily, while showing some trust to Xiong Yanbi, trying to further envelop him. Xiong Yanbi bowed slightly, and arched his hand: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

"In this way, Xiong Aiqing will definitely meet many oppressed military households when he goes to inspect the nine sides, these military households have no livelihood, and they must need help from the imperial court, I will give you 1 million taels, and you will help the soldiers and civilians of the nine sides according to the situation. In addition, Aiqing is holding the sword of Shang Fang, and I will send another 2,000 Beijing battalions for you to call, if Aiqing finds that the military generals are bullying the military households and deducting military salaries, they can be cut first and then played. Zhu Youxiao said to Xiong Yanbi.

Xiong Yanbi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, he didn't expect the emperor to give such strong support, it seemed that he was really determined to rectify the border army.

"Your Majesty is wise." Xiong Yanbi praised that although he had a stinky mouth, he didn't dare to be presumptuous to the emperor, and at the same time, the emperor was not the kind of straw bag who didn't understand anything.

"There is another one, I decided to transfer troops from the nine borders to the capital for rotation training, so as to gradually organize all the border troops into a Beijing battalion, and then send them to the border, what does Aiqing think?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"Your Majesty, after you rectified the Beijing camp, the atmosphere of the Beijing camp has indeed taken on a new look, but although the Jiubian military households need the imperial court's military salary, they are more self-sufficient. If all of them become the Beijing battalion, I am afraid that this military expenditure will go to the sea. You must know that there are more than 800,000 border troops. Xiong Yanbi hurriedly persuaded that if the more than 800,000 border troops were to be built into a Beijing battalion, the demand for military spending would indeed be too amazing.

"It's not that all of them are organized into Beijing battalions at one time, and the more than 800,000 border troops must also have empty quotas, and in the end, 500,000 can be formed. Although the military expenditure required is quite large, it is no problem to train 100,000 yuan in the first batch. Zhu Youxiao said that he had been thinking of this plan for a long time.

The border troops were transferred to the capital in batches for training, and all the officers were replaced by those trained in the martial arts hall, and all the officers trained in the martial arts hall were all members of the Han Emperor Party and had undergone ideological education from the Ministry of Political and Educational Affairs, so there was no problem with loyalty. Even if one or two individual brainwashes are not very thorough, as long as other officers with high loyalty exist, a kind of 'momentum' will be formed.

After a few rounds, all the border troops on the nine sides will become the Beijing battalion, and then the school can easily command. At the same time, it can also put an end to the problem of deducting military salaries, after the border army is organized and trained into the Beijing battalion, the military salaries are directly into their bank accounts, but the hands of military generals.

"Since Your Majesty has made a decision, the minister must fully cooperate." Xiong Yanbi actually didn't agree with this decision, mainly because of military spending. However, if we succeed, we can completely rectify the problem of the border army. Since the emperor said that he could solve the military expenses, then what else was he worried about, just do it.

"It's hard work." Zhu Youxiao hurriedly said, and then summoned Sun Chuanting into the palace, and kept Xiong Yanbi to have lunch in the palace together.

How to reorganize the border army, Zhu Youxiao only made money and decisions, and the specific implementation still had to be presided over by Sun Chuanting, the secretary of the military department, and Xiong Yanbi went to the border towns to carry it out.

"In this rectification, in addition to Liaodong, in Jizhou Town, Xuanfu Town, Datong Town, Taiyuan Town, Yansui Town, Ningxia Town, Guyuan Town, and Gansu Town, each town will send 100,000 young and strong soldiers to Beijing in accordance with the proportion of one-eighth. Zhu Youxiao explained that if one of the eight border soldiers in each town is selected, it will not have much impact on the border defense.

In addition, this transfer does not necessarily require elite soldiers, only young and strong people. The physical condition of the border army was actually very good, especially in the towns of Ningxia and Gansu, where the soldiers were known for their strength.

Dispatch 100,000 border troops, the supply of grain and grass along the way must be absolutely clear, in history, the border army into the king of Beijing Qin, often go to the middle of the mutiny, the main thing is that there is no supply of grain and grass, the military attache and urge the soldiers to march, artillery or something is so heavy that it is fatal, halfway to see that no one can live, simply kill the official mutiny.

"Then the grain and grass will be distributed in full by the Ministry of War." Sun Chuanting said.

"Yes." Zhu Youxiao nodded.

After some deliberations, the plan for the rotational reorganization of the border army was formalized. In fact, the reorganization of the border army in turn is also a last resort.

The border army is now constantly eroding, and if we do not kick all the traditional military attachés, there is no way to cure the problem at all. These military attachés support their families, bully military households, and run away during wars, they are completely a group of moths.

But now that the border army is still under the control of this group of moths, if Zhu Youxiao shouts and shouts to kill as soon as he comes up, and he has the posture of killing all the military attaches of the border army, what if they turn against him? Even if it can be extinguished, it will be tossed half to death.

If you want to kick the military attachés in the border army away, and at the same time take back the military cantonment land that has been encroached upon by the military attachés and magnates, you must first control the army.

Wait for Zhu Youxiao to reorganize several batches of border troops, and then transfer back to Jiubian. When the time comes, it will be necessary to liquidate those military attachés and those military cantonment lands that have been encroached upon, and that is a matter of one sentence.

At that time, even if those military attaches wanted to resist, they would find that there was no way to join forces with others, and all the towns were already the Jingying troops under the direct command of the emperor, and it was impossible for the rebellion to succeed.

As long as the land in the military cantonment is liquidated, the financial revenue of 20 to 30 million stone grain will be increased every year. Although it may be affected by natural disasters, there is still a financial income of tens of millions of stones.

The main task of Xiong Yanbi's inspection of the nine sides this time is not to punish those military attachés, but to first grasp a few typical deterrents to prevent the border army from continuing to erode, and at the same time distribute relief to the military households in difficulty, so that this explosive barrel can be calmed down first, so that Zhu Youxiao has enough time to deal with the problems of the border army.
