As these generals said, there are very few generals in the army who are not greedy, if Chu Yi really wants to kill, I am afraid that all the generals will really go out of ten, so even Chu Yi can only select some of the most heinous people to deter the army.

These generals dare to be greedy for military salaries in the army, and all of them naturally have their backgrounds, and even some of them can be related to the British public honors.

That is, Chu Yi, if he were someone else, it would not be easy to win so many generals at once.

The noble group, including the British Prince, was already on Chu Yi's side, so Chu Yi had already greeted the nobles in advance when he killed these people who were greedy for military salaries.

Of course, even if these nobles do not support it, Chu Yi will not hesitate, it is not an easy thing to control the military hearts of more than 100,000 people in the Beijing camp, not to control a few governors, but to win the approval of a group of soldiers.

Even if it is to gain the hearts of the military, Chu Yi will inevitably choose this method.

Obviously, this method is very effective, especially through the news that Jinyiwei and Dongchang investigated in advance, which of the generals in the army who were selected by Chu Yi as the object of Liwei this time have caused public resentment in the army, and it can be said that there is no one in the army who does not hate.

This time, Chu Yi selected these generals to kill them in front of everyone, and the repercussions can be imagined, only to see a piece of black oppression, more than 100,000 soldiers watched the hundreds of generals who were doing evil in the military camp on weekdays, and the generals who bullied the soldiers were cut off their heads, everyone was stunned at first, and then shouted loudly one by one.

"Father-in-law Chitose, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live!"

The cheers sounded, and on the high platform, the British Gong Zhang Mao and others couldn't help frowning when they heard this, but after looking at Chu Yi, no one said anything.

Although the cheers of the soldiers are a bit hairpin, no one is a fool, with the degree of trust that Chu Yi received from Zhu Houzhao, I am afraid that as long as Chu Yi does not rebel, Zhu Houzhao will not do anything about it, and the title of a thousand years old is nothing at all.

If you want to find Chu Yi's trouble on this point, then you are really asking for trouble for yourself.

Chu Yi let out a long roar, and all the soldiers were silent, and their eyes fell on Chu Yi.

Chu Yi pointed to the millions of taels of silver and stacks of acres of land contracts piled up beside him with his big hand, and said in a deep voice: "Soldiers, next click on anyone's name and come forward to receive your severance silver and land contract." ”

Although many people in the army do not seem to have left the barracks, most of them are very supportive of Chu Yi's actions, after all, many of them are already old, and they have even stayed in the army for a lifetime, and if they continue like this, I am afraid that they will not have a few years to live.

Being able to receive a severance silver, and having two or three acres of heaven and earth, is enough for them to spend the rest of their lives safely.

"Anyang Li Musheng!"

Seeing a white-haired old man wearing a tattered military uniform slowly walking onto the high platform, looking at that appearance, Chu Yi was worried that the other party would accidentally fall.

This Li Musheng can be said to be one of the few people in this army who has reached the age of 60, and it is rare to say that 70 is rare, and it is quite rare to be able to exceed 60 in this army.

It's just that he is still in the army at such an age, Chu Yi can't help but sigh, what can such a soldier do on the battlefield besides sending him to death.

The contract of fifty taels of silver and two acres of land made Li Musheng cry with excitement, and he bowed to the ground, first in the direction of the Forbidden City, and then in the direction of Chu Yi.

Chu Yi bowed slightly, watching Li Musheng's figure leave.

One by one, figures walked out of the army and ascended to the high platform to receive the severance silver and the land contract.

From morning to evening, hundreds of paperwork were handled at the same time, and it took a full day to dismiss the unqualified soldiers who needed to be eliminated from the list of generals.

When the last soldier left with the dismissed silver and the contract, there were almost 60,000 people left on the school field at this time, and many of them stood for a full day, and they were about to be unable to hold on, but Chu Yi stood on the high platform, looked at the remaining 60,000 and strong below, and nodded slightly.

No matter what these people are, at least they are all strong after eliminating the old, weak, sick and disabled, and since they are strong, it is not too difficult to get a group of elite soldiers with strict training.

And on the high platform, there were originally piles of millions of taels of silver, and now there are almost more than one million taels left.

Originally, it was intended to be used to buy the hearts of the army, Chu Yi looked at the remaining Wenyin and the soldiers present who were depressed because they had stood for a day, took a step forward, and said: "All the soldiers, after selection, can stay in the barracks, they are all the elite soldiers of my Ming Dynasty, Your Majesty will not treat the soldiers lightly when he reorganizes the Beijing camp this time." ”

Saying that, Chu Yi arched his hand in the direction of the Forbidden City and said: "According to the order of the Son of Heaven, anyone who has been selected to stay will be rewarded with five taels of silver each!" ”

Everyone watched the dismissed soldiers leave one by one with the silver of the white flowers, and many people even had a little thought, should they also leave with them, at least they could get a sum of silver, right?

At this time, when he heard Chu Yi say this, the Son of Heaven did not forget them, but gave them a reward, and suddenly all the soldiers shouted excitedly.

Compared with the cheers when they watched the generals who were greedy for military salaries being killed, this time the cheers were naturally loud and loud, attracting many people's eyes.

That's five taels of silver, on weekdays, the military salary is down, and it can reach them less than three cents of silver every month, so if you calculate it, Chu Yi sent a large amount of silver taels this time, which is equivalent to more than a year's salary for each soldier, how can this not make all the soldiers excited.

After all the soldiers calmed down, Chu Yi looked at the group of people and spoke again: "Your Majesty has mercy on the meager salaries of the soldiers and specially issued an order, and from now on, every soldier in the army will be doubled!" ”

"Your Majesty Shengming, Your Majesty Shengming!"

You must know that at present, when the Ming Dynasty recruits soldiers, it generally only gives three to five taels of settling-in allowance, and as for the salary, it is five to eight taels a year.

Even in an army like the Qi family's army, when recruiting soldiers, each soldier's annual salary is between ten taels and eighteen taels.

As soon as Chu Yi opened his mouth, he doubled the salary, if it is said that according to the current salary that the soldiers of the Beijing camp can get, after doubling, it means that each soldier's annual salary has reached about ten taels.

Zhang Mao, who was sitting there, couldn't help frowning, coughed lightly and whispered to Chu Yi: "Chief, now that you are rashly increasing the salary of the soldiers, I am afraid that the cost of raising soldiers will be doubled!" ”

A soldier costs about ten taels a year, not counting armor, weapons, etc., if this is counted, a soldier will be maintained, at least 30 taels of silver a year.

It's not that I don't know, I'm really shocked, according to Chu Yi's plan, the Beijing camp will be expanded to about 200,000 people, if it is calculated in this way, even if the investment in weapons can be regarded as a one-time time, then to maintain such a 200,000 army, at least 5 million taels will be invested in the first year, and at least about 3 million taels will be required every year to maintain the army in the future.

According to Chu Yi's investigation, in the past, the Ming Dynasty fed more than 100,000 soldiers in the Beijing camp, and it cost hundreds of thousands of taels every year.

The Ming Dynasty paid taxes every year to throw out grain and other things, and if it was only three or five million taels of silver, it would only be three or five million taels, which meant that the imperial court was simply not enough to maintain so many soldiers in the Beijing camp.

Zhang Mao, Xu Guangqi, and Zhu Fu No matter what, at least Chu Yi is their ally at the moment, they haven't heard Chu Yi mention that they want to increase the salary of the soldiers, and when they hear it in their hearts at this time, they are shocked one by one.

Even if the Ming treasury is emptied, it can't afford to raise so many soldiers, you must know that this salary is added, and it is not so easy to lower it again.

Chu Yi knew what they were worried about just by looking at the expressions and reactions of Zhang Mao and the others, but Chu Yi shook his head slightly at Zhang Mao and the others, and said with a little confidence on his face: "Everyone, since Chu dares to make such a decision, he naturally has a way to solve the problem of salary. ”

However, Zhang Mao and the others didn't believe it, Chu Yi instructed the people of Dongchang and Jinyiwei to monitor the documents and distribute silver taels to the excited soldiers present, while he retreated to the side with Zhang Mao and the others.

Zhang Mao looked at Chu Yi, his face was full of worry and said, "Lord Steward, please think twice about the salary!" ”

Zhu Fu stroked his beard and frowned: "What the British public said is very true, Lord Steward, it's not that we don't believe you, it's really a military salary of millions of taels every year, and the court can't take it at all, and at that time, if you're not careful, it will lead to a mutiny." ”

When soldiers eat food, once the promised salary cannot be distributed, what the consequences will be, as long as you are not a fool, you can imagine it.

Mo said that it was a few princes, even Han Kun, Cheng Xiangwu and other generals who had won Chu Yi's kindness all looked at Chu Yi with a worried face.

Chu Yi smiled: "Chu has his own way!" ”

Xu Guangqi hurriedly said: "The old man knows that there is still a confiscated property in the hands of the chief manager, and the key is that this property can support so many years or three years, but in the future, the chief manager can't go to the house every year." ”

As Xu Guangqi said, it is impossible to raid the house for a long time, just once or twice, and if you really raid the house at every turn, it will cause public anger.

Chu Yi glanced at everyone and said slowly: "Everyone, the matter of military salary, this governor will make it clear to Your Majesty, you should believe that Your Majesty will not let Chu do it, if Chu has no way to solve the problem of military salary, Your Majesty alone will not be able to pass that level." ”

Hearing Chu Yi say this, the British Duke frowned and said: "That's it, since this is the case, we will wait for the Lord Steward to come up with a solution, otherwise, please forgive me for offending the Lord Steward, and I will definitely jointly write to the Son of Heaven to stop the Lord Steward from acting recklessly." ”
