The reform of the military system is far more complicated than civil affairs, and it is necessary to let the officers and men in the army see hope and have the courage to kill the enemy, and at the same time to restrict the formation of factions in the army.

The gate of the Xiying camp was closed, and Jin Xiaoding invited the famous chefs of several restaurants in Nanjing City into the barracks to prepare meals for the generals and general soldiers.

The army of the Ming Dynasty in the south of the Yangtze River gathered, and the secret agents of Nanjing City tossed up and down, and inquired about the news through various channels. Some of those people were from Sichuan, some from Fujian, and some from Beijing. Whether it is the princes of the Ming Dynasty or the helpless Dolgon in the north, everyone is closely following the movements of the Ming court.

But now, no matter how well-informed people are, they can only look at the closed gates of Nanjing Xiying, and they are helpless.

After three days, Zhai Zhe returned to Xiying.

More than 20 people were detained for three days, some of whom had nothing to do with themselves, some of whom did not dare to come forward, and where could they come up with any charter.

As Zhai Zhe wished, after the account was raised, the generals only said their difficulties in the details, and no one dared to question the direction of his decision-making.

Li Guo, Jin Shenghuan and Chen Youlong all need to go back to streamline their troops. The cavalry battalion under the command of Xiao Zhiyan and Che Feng has a quota of 30,000 people, and there are only three or four thousand cavalry at present, and the construction of cavalry has a long way to go.

After the reform of the military system, all the regular soldiers were recruited, which belonged to an independent system under the control of the General's Office. The government soldiers retained a certain amount of reserves, and the general's palace regularly sent people to practice. In this way, it can reduce the cost of raising soldiers while ensuring that the strength of soldiers and horses is not reduced. Moreover, Zhai Zhe did not think it was appropriate to completely deprive the local governors of their military powers.

The business is over, and the king of Jin set up a banquet to entertain the generals, which is not only a celebration, but also a feast. The banquet was set up in the barracks, and the soldiers served as the men who served the dishes, and all kinds of dishes in the south of the Yangtze River were served in turn, which were rare treasures.

Delicacies, some people feast, others like chewing wax. Zhai Zhe deliberately brought out his favorite bamboo leaf green to entertain the generals, but his favorite wine may not be suitable for everyone's taste.

After a lively night, Zhai Zhe said goodbye and left halfway through drinking. The power of the King of Jin is getting heavier and heavier, and when he is there, it is difficult for the generals to let go of their hands and feet. Even Meng Kang didn't dare to joke with him like before.

The next day, because Xiangyang City was facing the pressure of the Qing court in Nanyang, the General's Mansion ordered Zuo Ruo, Jin Shenghuan and Gong Chen to return first.

The generals of Huguang were about to part, and Xiao Zhiyan wanted to talk to Zhai Zhe alone, but after thinking about it, he didn't know what to say. Do you want to thank Zhai Zhe for giving him the position of general? I still have to show that my sword is not old, and I don't live up to the trust of King Jin. These are not needed, he doesn't need words to show it, but he knows that this is Zhai Zhe giving him his last chance, not just a chance to be promoted and knighted.

Chen Youlong packed up and also returned to Changsha.

He already knew the requirements for the restructuring of the Jin Dynasty's army, but none of the generals in the army were as complicated as him, because Changsha still had a general soldier who did not come to Nanjing.

According to his prediction, Liu Chengyin may not agree with the reform of the imperial army. If Liu Chengyin didn't cut his troops, he certainly wouldn't want to do that.

In the past few days, he has been hesitating whether to find the general to tell him in detail. Perhaps, it is a good opportunity to say goodbye to the general.

In the midst of this, a constant commotion sounded outside the military tent.

Someone was shouting: "Is Mr. Chen here?" Is Mr. Chen from Wugang here? ”

Chen Youlong opened the curtain and walked out, and saw a middle-aged man with a beard standing twenty steps away from the big tent and shouting loudly. Look at the service of that man, who belongs to the general's personal guard.

He was not very familiar with the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, and when he went to Nanjing, he saw all the fresh faces, and arched his hand: "It is below" His trip to Nanjing, just by virtue of being familiar with the general soldiers, is also worth it.

The person returned the salute and said: "I am the general's guard Fang Jin, and the general wants to see you."

Chen Youlong was shocked in his heart, the smile on his face was more cheerful, and said: "It turned out to be Lord Fang" He was closed to the news again, what human rights in Nanjing City were tilted towards the government and the opposition, and who was around the general who could reach the sky, he still inquired clearly.

"Master Fang, wait for me to change my clothes later"

Fang Jinwan smiled and stood still.

After a while, Chen Youlong entered the account and changed into a set of Yu Jing's cloth robe and walked out. He hesitated to look at the soldiers behind him.

Fang Jin said with a smile: "General Chen doesn't need to bring his subordinates, there are cavalry waiting outside the big tent for the guards" He saw Chen Youlong's appearance like a countryman who had never seen the world suddenly came to the bustling streets of Nanjing City, and his behavior was a little shy and shrunk.

But Fang Jin didn't dare to despise him in his heart, the general soldiers who came to Nanjing to participate in the military conference in the past few days will be the pillars of the Ming army. Even if you catch up with this batch, after the military discussion and reward, the system in the army has been established, and it may not be so easy for later people to become the general soldier.

Chen Youlong went out of the camp with Fang Jin, and the two rode side by side, followed by fifty personal guards and cavalry.

Fifty cavalry horses are handsome, their armor is bright, and their soldiers are straddling their swords at their waists, and their backs are hung with birds.

Chen Youlong's garrison was in the wilderness of Wugang, and when Liu Chengyin was transferred from Wugang to Changsha last year, he took almost all the good equipment in the army with him. When he saw the equipment of these cavalrymen in the distance, a trace of envy flashed on his face, and he thought that if he reorganized his command into regular soldiers, the general's palace promised to gradually equip them with soldiers and firearms, and a wave of heat turned in his heart.

How did he know that the pro-soldier guard was the most well-equipped soldier of the Ming Dynasty, and Bao Guang had been commanding 2,000 soldiers and horses as the chief soldier. Soldiers, horses, and armor are all top-notch. The only cavalry of the Ming Dynasty, most of which were in Jingzhou, and the rest were in Nanjing City.

The group did not walk fast, and the business travelers along the way showed fear on their faces and moved out of the way.

Chen Youlong had the heart to ask Fang Jin what the general's summoning was about, but he was worried that he was not familiar with Fang Jin, so he opened his mouth without authorization, and it would be bad if it didn't reach the general's ears.

He walked all the way into the city of Nanjing, not even paying attention to the prosperity along the streets.

Until he arrived in front of the Jin Palace, the personal guards and cavalry were waiting outside the door, and Fang Jin led him in.

Fang Jin could sense Chen Youlong's nervousness along the way, and a person like him, who had been by King Jin's side, couldn't understand the fear and expectation of a side general for King Jin.

Walking through the two courtyards, Fang Jin asked Chen Youlong to wait outside, and walked into a large palace by himself. After a while, he came out to greet him and said, "King Jin summons"

Chen Youlong walked in, and Fang Jin stayed outside the door.

Since returning to Nanjing and stationed in the Jin Palace, Zhai Zhe no longer let people accompany him when he met with courtiers and military generals. Fang Jin heard less and less news.

Chen Youlong walked into the gate of the palace, and Zhai Zhe was sitting directly opposite.

"Meet the general" Chen Youlong knelt on the ground, he used a military title, unlike others who called Zhai Zhe the prince.

"Get Up"

For example, Zuo Ruo, Feng Qin, Xiao Zhiyan and others saw that Zhai Zhe only had etiquette in the army, and there were also military generals like Chen Youlong who had always followed the etiquette rules of the Ming officialdom. Zhai Zhe didn't take it to heart.

Chen Youlong stood up. He was known as the "Five Yama Kings" in Hunan, and he was like a helpless child when he arrived here.

"I summoned you here to inquire about something" Zhai Zhe frowned and asked, "Is Liu Chengyin really sick or fake?" ”

Chen Youlong's mind changed sharply, Xu Yiyang had been staying in Changsha Mansion, how could King Jin not know the truth about Liu Chengyin. He really wanted to take this opportunity to bring down Liu Chengyin, but the little cunning in his heart warned him that he couldn't answer too bluntly.

"The last general didn't know that he had invited him to accompany him when he came to Nanjing, but he said that he was sick and avoided it."

"Liu Chengyin didn't come to Nanjing, but is he afraid of this king?" Zhai Zhe's brows tightened tighter and tighter.

King Jin's words made Chen Youlong's heart cold, and he knew that Liu Chengyin was finished.

Liu Chengyin was very, very bad when he was in a hurry, and it was during the period when King Jin made up his mind to rectify the government. The blood of nearly 100 people of the Zhang family on the Xiangshui side dried up, and the wind of silk catching and thieves arose in the south of the Yangtze River. In the past two or three months, many people have died

Zhai Zhe stared at Chen Youlong for a long time, and said: "If Liu Chengyin is seriously ill, he will no longer need to serve as the chief soldier of Changsha, if he pretends to be sick, hehe"

The two syllables "hehe" have made his meaning clear.

Chen Youlong could only be silent. The military town did not listen to orders, and in Zhai Zhe's eyes, it was a hundred times stricter than the chattering Donglin Party. Liu Chengyin's move is a way to seek death.

"At present, only the general soldiers of Zhuzhen know about the restructuring of the army, after you return to Changsha, Liu Chengyin will definitely ask you for news, I have decided to let Xu Yiyang temporarily serve as the military envoy of the two towns in Hunan, and you will act according to his orders."

Chen Youlong heard it clearly and said: "The last general obeys the order" I heard that Xu Yiyang was the sole ruler of Hunan, and he was relaxed in his heart, he thought that he had a good relationship with Xu Yiyang.

Zhai Zhe relaxed his breath and instructed: "When you return to Changsha, you must do your best to organize your troops and horses, and wait for the summons of the imperial court's Northern Expedition."

"Obedience"

Out of the gate of the Jin Palace, it was still those personal guards and cavalry who escorted him back to the western camp.

The focus of the army's reorganization is in Huguang.

In addition to Xu Yiyang's multi-position in Hunan, the military envoys sent to various places still need to be out for some days, and the military envoys are only temporarily set up this time.

Chen Youlong did not dare to delay, and chartered a passenger boat the next day and returned with the fleet to and from Huguang.

The Ming Dynasty only occupied a sporadic state capital in Jiangbei, and there were often water cowards in the Yangtze River waterway, so the merchant ships traveling between Huguang and Jiangnan either traveled in tandem or followed closely behind the sailors.

Arriving at Changsha via Dongting Lake, it happens to be the Double Ninth Festival.

On both sides of Xiangshui, the autumn leaves are scattered, and in the orange island, the fruits are abundant.

Chen Youlong returned to the barracks first, and when he saw that the soldiers in the camp tent were all right, a big stone fell to the ground in his heart. There is a plug Yinxi in Changsha, and Liu Chengyin does not dare to make a mistake.

He had just returned to the barracks, and immediately someone came to visit.

Liu Chengyin did not come, Xu Yiyang appeared first.

After Zhang Xinzheng's family was killed, Huguang's two-tax reform was implemented smoothly. Xu Yiyang is not familiar with those complicated digital accounts, and his tax supervisor is actually just a decoration, used to deter the youngsters, and there is nothing to do.

Xu Yiyang was dressed in a strong suit, and as soon as they met, he asked: "Mr. Chen, how is it, the trip to Nanjing has gained a lot?"
