Chongzhen was furious....and very angry....

There is a good saying: When a king is angry, blood flows like a river, and when a pariah is angry, blood is splashed....

In addition, the inner library is becoming more and more abundant, and Chongzhen, who has the capital, has begun to dictate the dynasty step by step...

Therefore, in the face of Emperor Chongzhen, who was angry, the first reaction in everyone's hearts was to keep silent. No one dares to guarantee that if he angered Chongzhen in front of him at this time, Chongzhen, who held the power of life and death, would he directly take down himself with a word.

So, in the blink of an eye, the morning meeting, which was still lively just now, became quiet. Except for Emperor Chongzhen, who was sitting on the throne, he couldn't hear any other sounds because of the constant panting of anger.

As time passed little by little, none of the courtiers kneeling in the court spoke. The anger on Chongzhen's face had been unconsciously replaced by disappointment.

Just as he was about to speak again, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, who had become more and more trusted by him, made Luo Yang's sex move.

Under Chongzhen's expectant gaze, Luo Yangxing spoke: "Your Majesty, the minister has an idea..."

"What an idea. Luo Aiqing, say whatever you think... No matter what you think, I will forgive you for your innocence..."Emperor Chongzhen's eyes lit up, and he ordered with a face full of urgency.

At this time, dozens of pairs of eyes in the court seemed to have been discussed, and at the same time converged on Luo Yangxing, waiting for Luo Yangxing's next words.

Luo Yangxing, who was kneeling in front of Chongzhen, didn't let everyone wait too long, and after quickly sorting out the thoughts in his mind, he replied in as much detail as possible: "Your Majesty." Governor Wei repeatedly asked the court to allocate enough firearms to support the Haw Par Army. Thus. The need for this batch of firearms and equipment must be very urgent. ”

"Since the imperial court has no way to meet this request, even if we allocate enough silver to the Haw Par Army, it is unlikely that this silver will be turned into firearms and equipment in a short period of time to help the Haw Par Army repel the Shaanxi traitors and the Mongol army..."

Chongzhen nodded thoughtfully and replied: "Luo Aiqing is right, although the silver can be used to boost the morale of the army. However, I also know that when it comes to the battlefield, no matter how much silver there is. None of them can be turned into firearms and equipment. ”

Speaking of this, Chongzhen's words changed sharply, and he asked directly to Luo Yangxing in front of him: "In that case, I don't know if Luo Aiqing has a specific solution... The Haw Par Army was flanked by the Shaanxi rebels and the Mongol army in such a difficult situation, and if the imperial court did not provide support to the Haw Par Army, I was worried that the Haw Par Army under the command of Governor Wei would not be able to stop the two armies..."

"At that time, not only will Shanxi be at risk of being occupied by Shaanxi traitors and the Mongol army, but even the capital where I am located will once again fall into a military disaster..."

did not disappoint Emperor Chongzhen. Luo Yangxing directly gave Chongzhen a positive answer.

"Your Majesty, there is indeed a solution here...."

"The minister's idea is. Since we can't allocate firearms and equipment to the Haw Par Army, why don't we send people to the Haw Par Army....From not sending some of the craftsmen who make firearms to Datong, we can build firearms for the Haw Par Army directly in Datong Province. ”

"As far as the minister knows......Shanxi where the Tiger and Par Army is located is not short of iron ore and coal mines... A very important reason why there is still a shortage of so many firearms and equipment is that the Haw Par Army lacks craftsmen who can make firearms..."

"If the imperial court allocates some craftsmen to the Haw Par Army, if the raw materials are sufficient, these craftsmen can create firearms in a short period of time, equip the Haw Par Army, resist the invasion of foreign enemies, protect Shanxi, and protect the capital..."

"In addition, the transfer of a group of craftsmen to the past can not only solve the urgent needs of the tiger and leopard army, but also the imperial court does not need to spend two silver. In addition, the minister also heard that due to the lack of funds and raw materials, the tens of thousands of craftsmen under the military department have all been idle. Therefore, let these tens of thousands of craftsmen eat the food and salary of the imperial court all day long, it is better to send them to the Tiger and Leopard Army..."

"In this way, it can also reduce the pressure on the military department and even the imperial court to support these craftsmen on a certain period of time."

In the eyes of these important courtiers, those lowly craftsmen were the lowest-ranking pariahs. In addition, these untouchables are now idle, so the military department does not pay them food and salary according to the system at all....

However, even if they were given a little bit of food every day that would not go hungry, tens of thousands of craftsmen, plus their families, would eat almost tens of thousands of taels of grain in a month.

Of course, there have also been talks about leaving these craftsmen alone.

However, as soon as this opinion was put forward, it was rejected by the cabinet. You know, it's not a few hundred, it's tens of thousands....more importantly, these tens of thousands of people still live in the capital.

Once the imperial court forced these 10,000 people to a dead end, the cabinet did not dare to imagine what kind of chaos these tens of thousands of hungry craftsmen would make in the capital.

Therefore, even if it was known that these craftsmen were idle, the imperial court had to provide them with rations to prevent them from unresting.

However, with the passage of time, these craftsmen have unconsciously become a thorn in the court, a thorn that has long wanted to be pulled out.

Especially in the military department, Yan zhòng, he had long wanted to drive this group of hard-working craftsmen out of the capital and let them fend for themselves.

You must know that the amount of silver allocated by the imperial court to the military department every month is a certain amount. Faced with a limited amount of silver, not a single official wanted to give it to lowly artisans.

Therefore, after Luo Yangxing finished speaking, the eyes of the military department Shangshu became bright. In my heart, I quickly became active.

Once these craftsmen are transferred out of the capital, no, even if only half of them are transferred...... The military department can also have at least 5,000 taels of silver left in a month, and 5,000 cars a month is 60,000 taels a year. Even if he only took 50% of it, it would be a full 30,000 taels of silver...

Thinking of the silver in vain, the sparkling eyes of the military department Shangshu directly opened his mouth in support and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister supports Lord Luo's opinion....rather than letting these craftsmen spend the imperial court's food and salary in the capital in vain, it is better to transfer them to the Tiger and Leopard Army..."

The military department has just finished speaking, and several military generals who work in the military department and can benefit from it. As if they had been discussed, he stood up at the same time and shouted in support to Chongzhen.

"Your Majesty, the ministers also support Lord Luo's opinion, in order to enhance the strength of the Haw Par Army, the imperial court should immediately allocate enough craftsmen to Datong to build firearms, equip the Haw Par Army, and defend against foreign enemies........."
