Section 161 Martyr

Seeing Yu Qian enter the imperial study, Bai Minghe hurriedly retreated to the side.

His posture of standing in front of the Ming Emperor is already a great disrespect, not to mention, Confucianism has a derogatory connotation for whispering.

If you are above board, why don't you dare to say it out loud, but you have to whisper it.

At least, that's how Shiramei Crane understood, so he quickly stepped aside.

"Yu Aiqing has arrived, sit!" Yu Qian, Zhu Qiyu belongs to the kind of respect and fear from the heart. is too upright, and his ability is extraordinary, and he is the work of saving the Ming Dynasty, and you can't find fault with it, such a person and the emperor don't have a headache.

Zhu Qiyu sat back on the throne and signaled that Bai Minghe could start.

Bai Minghe walked in front of Yu Qian in a few steps and smiled: "Lord Yu, tomorrow is the Great Dynasty Meeting." Long live Kuanren, I want to give more rewards to those soldiers who have contributed to the Ming Dynasty. ”

Yu Qian didn't speak, and said in his heart that these Eight Achievements of Reward were made by you Bai Minghe.

"Lord Yu, imagine that the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are fearless of the enemy, even if they face ten times the enemy, they dare to fight to the death. Then the Ming North Defense is very stable. But why did the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty fight for the Ming Dynasty? ”

Zhu Qiyu was afraid to know what Bai Minghe meant, but when Bai Minghe asked like this, even Zhu Qiyu didn't know how to answer.

Now that I think about it, the question of the white crane is really difficult to be a human being.

Yu Qian lowered his raised head slightly, if he changed people and asked himself in a different place, he could at least say it with reason. But in front of him is the Ming Emperor, and to say it too falsely is to be disrespectful to the emperor. And it's too real to say, with Bai Minghe's kind of character here, he can cut the human heart for you and analyze, and the general reason is simply untenable.

Bai Minghe said, "Lord Yu." The first reason to fight to the death is. The military law of the Ming Dynasty is harsh, war is death, and not fighting is death! ”

"Yes!" Yu Qian agrees with the statement of the white crane.

"The second reason is favor, a good boss will not retreat from fighting to the death, and the sergeant will also fight to the death for this general!"

"Yes!" Yu Qian nodded again.

"The third reason is to fight against the odds. Fighting or not fighting is death. This reason can be more helpless than the first reason for military law, killing one is enough to be the heart of the people! ”

"Yes!" Yu Qian nodded for the third time, and he couldn't refute what Bai Minghe said.

Bai Minghe laughed: "Then Lord Yu, a Ming official, read history books, read the art of war." There are many generals with integrity, so there are many who fight to the death. I ask Lord Yu if I met the eunuch Wang Zhen. Who will fight to the death. So, what is the reason for the rout? ”

"The art of war is excessive, and people's hearts are scattered. The generals are not in harmony, and the command is abnormal. As for the reasons for the defeat in the First Battle of Tumubao, this official can discuss with you for three days and three nights, as the Decree of Long Live says, it is not a crime of war! ”

Yu Qian's answer was equally perfect, and the interests of all parties were considered.

Bai Minghe asked again, "What if." Therefore, the soldiers are concerned about the Ming Dynasty and the safety of Long Live it. Even if you hate traitors. But what about a desperate fight? ”

"Thirty thousand horsemen, 500,000 Ming Dynasty. Bai Minghe ......" There was already murderous in Yu Qian's tone: "You answer this official, 500,000 people fight to the death regardless of the back road, what will be the result?" But is this possible? The morale of the army has been completely lost, and the hearts of the people have collapsed. So what organizes the First World War? ”

Hahaha!

Bai Minghe looked up to the sky and laughed: "I don't accept it, even if a group of soldiers who have no command, or even no weapons, only death-willed soldiers." I bit and killed those 30,000 cavalrymen. ”

"Is it possible?" Yu Qian asked rhetorically.

This is what Yu Qian dared to ask at the court meeting. Let's ask everyone in the art of war in history. Is it your ancestor of the white-named crane, the killing god Bai Qi, can you organize a battle to the death without morale?

"Long live the reward...... Bai Minghe then put forward the statement about the word. According to Bai Minghe, a sergeant in the family who died in the battle for the Ming Dynasty was given a wooden plaque with the word martyr. Then, in turn, the iron and wood plates, the bronze wood plates, the silver wood plates, until there are five soldiers who fought to the death for the Ming Dynasty at home, and they were given gold and wood plates.

Detailed grading system, detailed tax exemption policy, detailed glory policy.

When they reach a certain level, all the equipment for the soldiers in the family to fight will be rewarded by the inner treasury.

Yu Qian didn't answer immediately, but thought about it repeatedly.

After more than ten minutes of modern time, Yu Qian sighed softly, and stood in front of Zhu Qiyu and saluted: "Long live, Bai Minghe's mind is clear." Kechen also had a few questions, military households are lowly registrations, military households are tuntian to pay grain, military households can only produce one official for five dings, military households cannot change their nationality, military households must suffer when they go to war, and the children of military households are not allowed to pass on. It's hard......"

Yu Qian is not a pure Confucian student, and he does not have the idea of treating military households as extremely cheap in his heart.

After saying this, he said to Bai Minghe: "No tax, Bai Minghe knows how many military households there are in the Ming Dynasty." Do you know how many tuntians, do you know how much a military family has to pay to feed a soldier, can you afford the white crane? ”

"I'm safe!" Zhu Qiyu actually opened his mouth to answer for Bai Minghe.

Yu Qian and Bai Minghe were both stunned, Yu Qian didn't expect that Emperor Ming would support Bai Minghe to come to this point. The white crane was equally surprised, but what was even more surprising was that the secret about Lolu could not be told.

Yu Qian saluted again, and nominally asked Bai Minghe: "Bai Minghe, the most bitter thing for military households is to go out to fight for armaments." ”

"I've got it!" The white crane gritted his teeth.

The system of the Ming Taizu Guard was excellent in the early stage, saying that it was to feed millions of soldiers without spending a penny of the imperial court.

But in fact, the combat effectiveness of the Ming army is constantly declining.

In order to live, there is extra money to go to the soldiers who go out to the army at home to equip well. The equipment prepared by the Ming Dynasty is also limited to the soldiers of the Thirteen Towns and the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and the ordinary guards rely on themselves.

"White Crane, one million military households in the Ming Dynasty!" Yu Qian's tone was a little stern.

"I'm a guarantor for the white crane. If there is a change, it will be the demolition of my palace, and I will not miss a penny to the military department. But I also want to say that whoever dares to be greedy for a penny in it, I will kill him of the nine tribes. Zhu Qiyu was also ruthless. Then he stretched out his hand and pointed at the white crane: "The white crane, that matter, I am right." ”

The white-named crane bowed: "Long live, within two years, please see the ministers to build an iron-like Datong and Xuanfu for Long live, as well as the Hetao!" ”

Speaking of this, Yu Qian couldn't retreat: "Long live, the court will be criticized." Long live Chen Qi, this matter is delayed! ”

"Tomorrow, long live the gift of the gift. What do you think? ”

"According to Lord Bai's performance, but after the vote, the official will arrange some details. There is also the fact that the taxes they pay are not paid to the household department, but to the guard posts and also to the military department. Lord Bai's first sum is at least a tax of more than one million mu of land, calculated at one mu and three and a half buckets. ”

"700,000 stone grain, grain or silver, or gold bars!"

Yu Qian really wanted to scold Bai Minghe, you bastard, you are really rich. Just ask Da Ming the official at the moment, that wealthy businessman dares to casually say that it is 700,000 stone grain.

"White Crane, one million stones, in the military department!" When Zhu Qiyu arrived at Tumu Fort together, he felt a chill in his back.

Think about it, if these soldiers really read the queen of the Ming Emperor at that time, and fought desperately for themselves or any future emperor, not to mention a million stones, even ten million stones were worth it.

But who would have thought, Yu Qian said again: "Maybe there is still some armament!" ”

"White Crane, leave thirty stones of gold and hand it over to the military department." Zhu Qiyu directly took charge of the white crane.

Bai Minghe knelt down at this time: "Long live, the minister has another request." Please long live the east factory to move a place, the cost required is not a problem. In the quarry next to the east factory, the minister plans to build a yard called the Stele Forest. Military households who get gold medals can leave their names in the Forest of Steles. There are also a few streets built around, and dozens of shops are built by the way. ”

"This matter ......" Zhu Qiyu didn't dare to agree, and after thinking about it, he said: "Dongchang can move somewhere." What does Yu Aiqing think? ”

"Long live, let's let Lord Bai circle the place first."

Yu Qian's meaning is very clear, he understands what Zhu Qiyu means, and he raised the military household so high at once, I am afraid that the civilian officials will not agree at all, only step by step. What's more, there is no gold medal at the moment.

It was easy to move in the East Factory, and according to the number of people in the East Factory now, the place was already very tight.

Moreover, Dongchang also asked for a larger prison, as in this case, Dongchang's existing cells are not enough.

"Two Aiqing go and prepare, tomorrow the Great Dynasty will wait for your results!"

After Zhu Qiyu was excited, he was a little upset by Yu Qian's words, he is the emperor, but some things cannot be done by temperament, even if it is a good thing.

Fortunately, Yu Qian handled this matter, and it was estimated that the official would rush out if he was replaced by Bai Minghe.

Out of the south study, Yu Qian snorted coldly at Bai Minghe: "Bai Minghe, you are too arrogant." ”

"Lord Yu, don't you want a strong soldier?" Bai Minghe asked rhetorically.

Yu Qian was choked at that time, he knew very well how powerful the civil official group was, Bai Minghe's approach was tantamount to challenging the authority of the civil official group, in the eyes of the civil official group, only after the sage book was the hero of the country, when would it be the turn of the lowly military household. Fortunately, this matter is handled by yourself, and if you give it to Bai Minghe, it will be another mess.

There was really nothing to say, Yu Qian just said: "Bai Minghe, this official wants to see how much silver you have." ”

"Ah...... I don't know! Bai Minghe played a scoundrel with Qian: "My account book is now checked with gold bars, and it is calculated with stones. Shirana Crane smirked.

Yu Qianqi's face turned pale, and he shook his skirt vigorously and ignored Bai Minghe. Shirana Crane stood there and just smiled evilly.

To Bai Minghe's surprise, after Yu Qian took a few steps, he suddenly turned around: "Bai Minghe, if this matter is really done, your Bai Minghe will be able to do it for a thousand years." With that, Yu Qian no longer paid attention to the stunned white crane and strode away. (To be continued......)
