The first wind and rain drifted away

When Cao Wenzhao heard this, he was overjoyed in his heart, and finally let go of the worries in his heart, and knelt down to thank him and said, "The last general will obey the order!" will live up to the emperor's love! ”

Emperor Chongzhen raised his hands weakly, nodded and said firmly:

"I give you the sword of Shang Fang, and the noble generals under your command but there are troublemakers who do not accept it, take out your domineering spirit on the battlefield, you can cut it first and then play.

But there are people in the court who have impeachment rumors, and I will block them for you, and Aiqing doesn't need to worry too much.

Logistics, food, baggage, armor, weapons, people, etc., Aiqing doesn't need to worry about it, I will order someone to cooperate with you.

And Aiqing only cares about training, training to the death, and training to become an elite soldier. ”

Speaking of this, Emperor Chongzhen pointed to the soldiers who were eating happily in the outer hall and said:

I only have one request, within a year, Aiqing will use your 3,000 iron horsemen as a base to train 50,000 horses for me.

Among them, at least 30,000 soldiers who can fight and dare to fight must be guaranteed, and the opponent is Jiannu's strong army, can Aiqing be sure? ”

In a year, why is the emperor so eager?

Cao Wenzhao, who listened to it crookedly in front, did not answer immediately when he heard this, but thought secretly in his heart.

In a year, if you train cavalry, you will definitely not be able to do it, but the time to practice firearms is about the same, but there is a very critical point in this.

That is, there must be enough food, I wonder if the emperor has taken it into account?

What is Da Ming's financial situation, as a middle and high-level general, how could he not know?

Although the emperor said that everything was guaranteed, I just don't know if he knew the difference between becoming an army in one year and an army in three years?

The emperor treats me sincerely, and he must not deceive the emperor like Yuan Chonghuan, it is better to talk about things, so as not to delay the emperor's major affairs!

Thinking of this, he carefully considered the language and said: "Your Majesty, the last general has been in the army since he was a child, and he has been fighting in the military camp for more than ten years.

In one year, if the emperor wants to quickly train 30,000 elite soldiers, he needs 70,000 soldiers, and then the military law is strict, the training is hard, and it is uninterrupted.

Men who are willing to join the army, most of their families are poor and poor, and if they have enough food, they will believe that they can bear this sin without complaining.

It's just that the emperor, Qi Shaobao's strict training in the past was only a three-day exercise, not because of anything else, but because of ......"

"It's because it's expensive, and the financial resources are unsustainable, isn't it?"

Isn't that the money?

Cao Daoyou said that he was afraid that he would not have sufficient financial support, and in the end he would be stuck in the middle, not up or down, which was really embarrassing for him.

A fierce man who fights and kills, salty and eats radishes, cares about my financial situation.

However, this is the reason.

Who called the treasury of the Ming Dynasty poor into a dog, and owed the soldiers in front of him food and salary all the year round, it is normal for Cao Daoyou to have this worry.

Emperor Chongzhen interrupted Cao Daoyou's words with a smile, and waved his hand as if he was confident, as if the problem of money was not a problem.

"I know that the soldiers practice every day, not only because of the excessive loss of weapons, armor, shoes and socks, but also because the food standard for three meals a day has to be improved.

When you recruit soldiers, even if you let it go, you will be paid three taels of silver when you are selected for the Beijing camp, and if you become an elite soldier in a year, your salary will be doubled.

During the exercise, ensure the supply of military uniforms and armor, eat three meals a day, and have fish and meat at every meal, and there is no lie! ”

Hiss!

When Cao Wenzhao heard this, he gasped, and the whole person was stunned!

Obediently, how much money do you have to invest in such treatment?

Cao Daoyou has little culture, and his head is a little insufficient.

But he probably knew that according to the emperor's method, in a year, the military salary and logistics would add up, and there would be no two or three million at all.

Why don't you know, when did the Ming treasury become so rich?

Seeing this, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but be a little amused.

Alas, Cao Daoyou is also used to suffering, and poverty limits his imagination.

If he knew that his ultimate goal was to build all the governor's mansions of the five armies, form a new Beijing battalion, and restore the scale of 500,000 to Chengzu Zhu Di, I don't know what he would think?

After a few breaths, Cao Wenzhao came back to his senses, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, daring to love the emperor had already considered, and he was really worried about it.

The worry in Cao Wenzhao's heart was completely let go, and what followed was a lot of pride.

Recalling that for more than ten years, he has been imprisoned in the suffering of no soldiers, and his subordinates only have 3,000 soldiers and horses available at most, and they cannot fight against Jiannu.

If there are 30,000 elites in hand, Cao Wenzhao has the confidence to compete with the Jiannu battlefield.

"The Son of Heaven Shengming, the last general is willing to make a military order, train 30,000 elite soldiers within a year, restore the former glory of the Shenji Battalion, and fight to the death with the Tartars!

If it fails, the last general is willing to commit suicide with a knife and apologize to the emperor! ”

"Great goodness! Let's drink together! ”

Emperor Chongzhen said with a wine glass.

He didn't bother to correct Cao Daoyou's ugly habit of talking about death at every turn, and it is estimated that famous generals are like this, because they are not afraid of death.

At this moment, he is full of ambition in his heart, good generals and elite soldiers in hand, and the world can go sideways!

The formation of the Shenji Battalion was only his first step in rebuilding the Beijing Battalion.

There is no doubt about the importance of the Beijing camp, and the internal defense of the Beijing division and the external preparation for conquest play a pivotal role in the national military defense.

During the Wanli period, the Beijing camp was still usable, the Jiangnan soldiers were mostly used for Cao Yun, and the Jiangbei soldiers were mostly used as squad soldiers to enter Beijing for preparation.

It's a pity that it's completely eroded now, not to mention a big use, not even a use.

"General Xiao Cao, I am going to appoint you as the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, what do you think?"

Putting down the wine glass and solving the matter of Cao Wenzhao, Emperor Chongzhen began to settle Cao Bianjiao again.

Both of their uncles and nephews are fierce generals, and they both grew up from Guanning Iron Cavalry, and it is just right to send him to Shanhaiguan.

"Emperor Xie is very loving, but he is young and difficult to convince the public. The last general will recommend one person, enough to take on this heavy responsibility! ”

To the surprise of Emperor Chongzhen, Cao Bianjiao, who was twenty-six years old at the time, got up neatly and returned.

"Who? Why? ”

Emperor Chongzhen raised his head and asked.

"Datong guerrilla general Zhang Yunfu!"

Cao Bianjiao said the former question without hesitation, but he glanced at Cao Wenzhao for the latter question, and when he saw that the other party nodded, he gritted his teeth and said:

"Emperor Qi, the Guanning Iron Cavalry was not formed by himself, and it was difficult for outsiders to control it.

And General Zhang came from a family of generals in western Liaoning, and most of his brothers and fathers served in Shanhaiguan, so he was more suitable than the last general to serve as the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan. ”

After Cao Bianjiao finished speaking, Emperor Chongzhen was silent, and the cold glint in his eyes flashed.

This is the truth, Tianning Iron Cavalry has gradually become a private soldier, Zu Dashou's private soldier.

He knew that.

The reason why he let Cao Bianjiao go over was actually to seep into the sand, and he wanted to decompose the Guanning Iron Horse.

But now it seems that he is overly optimistic and a little eager.

Squinting at Zhang Yunfu, who was recommended by Cao Bianjiao, Emperor Chongzhen was a little hesitant.

I have never heard of this person in history!

I don't know what the ability is. Second, I don't know loyalty.

Bewilderment!
