Chapter 144: The Duke of the Kingdom
Later Jin and now the Manchu Qing Dynasty, from the beginning of the defeat of Salhu in the Wanli period, has been the trouble of several generations of kings of the Ming Dynasty, 400,000 troops were defeated by the Later Jin, opened the abyss of the war in Liaodong, every year the Ming Dynasty has to spend huge sums of money into this battlefield that will never see hope.
And the annual salary has also continuously increased the burden of the Ming Dynasty, which is one of the main culprits that have brought down the Ming Dynasty, and it is the biggest threat to the Ming Dynasty, and now it has been disintegrated by Lin Fei.
Although the Manchu Qing Dynasty has not yet fallen, it is still between the white mountains and black waters, but the loss of 200,000 Manchu elites will inevitably lead to the Manchu Qing Dynasty no longer being able to invade the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty's strategy towards the Manchu Qing Dynasty will undergo fundamental changes, and this change is undoubtedly carried out in a favorable way for the Ming Dynasty.
It's no wonder that Emperor Chongzhen cried with joy, from today onwards, the burden on his shoulders can be easily cut off, and Daming can also slowly reduce Liao's salary, and he can also have more finances to face Daming's current problems.
"Sure enough, he is a fierce general that I value, this person's Wen Taowu strategy is simply beyond the ability of others, it is really a blessing of the Ming Dynasty!"
Emperor Chongzhen couldn't hold back his excitement and praised Lin Feidao repeatedly.
"Emperor, this is the reason why the emperor is blessed with great fortune, diligent and loving the people, and the heavens have sent down fierce generals like Lin Fei to help the emperor sweep away the barbarians and stabilize the Ming Dynasty!"
Wang Chengen, the companion on the side, now deeply trusted by Emperor Chongzhen, saw that Emperor Chongzhen was so happy, and he couldn't help but have a happy face and praise.
"Haha, you can talk! However, such a brave general, I must be rewarded well, and I must think carefully about what kind of reward I will give him for such merit to destroy the 200,000 Manchu army! ”
Chongzhen nodded and said happily.
At that moment, Chongzhen immediately summoned the cabinet elders to meet and discuss with these ministers of his humerus about rewarding Lin Fei, this matter is very important, and Chongzhen can not decide alone.
However, these pavilion elders all received huge rewards from Lin Fei, so they naturally spoke for Lin Fei, and the post of Tianjin Guard General was also put in the hands of Lin Fei's tall and strong.
And the reward for Lin Fei was discussed for a few days, and it was quickly released, and the rest of the rewards were naturally not worth mentioning, the biggest reward was the title of knighthood, the Ming Dynasty could not be divided into knights without military merits, and every time the knights were also extremely careful and careful, starting from the earl, they had the status of super-grade, and they could really compete with civil officials.
Therefore, even if it is an earl, it is something that countless military generals dream of, and this time Lin Fei sprinkled a lot of money to attack these money-greedy civil officials, so in the end, Lin Fei was directly divided into a first-class duke, which is what ordinary people call a national duke!
The tacit understanding of the Ming Dynasty is that a living person of the opposite sex cannot be a king, and the Duke of Guo is already the apex of the Ming Dynasty's title!
Becoming a national prince becomes a top noble, and he really stands at the apex of the Ming military generals, and can compete with civilian officials!
Of course, for Lin Fei, this is just an honor, what really makes him interested is the position of the chief military officer of Tianjin Wei, this position is in his own hands, then he can really have a reliable base, with Tianjin Wei and Datong to completely drive the whole, with the capital of rapid development!
Tianjin Weicheng, after a month, has let Lin Fei transfer a large number of craftsmen and handicraftsmen, Lin Fei's plan is to bring textile factories and other light factories to Tianjin Weilai, so that whether it is the import of raw materials or the export of products, there are a lot of benefits.
Moreover, there are also a large number of displaced people and people in Tianjin, which is enough to quickly establish textile factories and other light industrial factories.
On the other hand, Lin Fei also recruited a large number of shipwrights and shipwrights to prepare for the shipbuilding industry.
It's just that the shipbuilding industry is already a high-end industry, and he didn't have the slightest understanding of it before the shuttle, so he could only introduce the standard system and urge craftsmen to slowly accumulate technology.
He doesn't need to be in a hurry at this point, there are two years at most, the colored progress bar is enough to accumulate full progress, he can naturally return to the modern era, and when the time comes, he can focus on learning relevant knowledge, and let people study it slowly.
After eliminating the 200,000 soldiers and horses of the Manchu Dynasty, the situation in the world has been changed, and the sense of urgency in Lin Fei's heart is not so great, so he can naturally accumulate and develop slowly.
And there is still a lot of time from the west to surpass the east, and these times are enough for Lin Fei to slowly develop the Ming Dynasty and enter the Age of Discovery.
Of course, the upgrading and development of these industries will take time, and it is impossible for Lin Fei to spend time on this, during this time period, Lin Fei plans to expand his army again, expanding the 20,000 Lin Fei army to 50,000.
Now he is the Duke of the Ming Dynasty, and his status is extraordinary, but it has also aroused the jealousy of the Ming court, and only with the army in hand can he have the ability to make the Ming Dynasty dare not turn his face against him.
With 50,000 troops in hand, even if Da Ming really did it to him, he had the ability to quickly turn the tables, and 50,000 troops were enough to defeat the entire north.
And if the Ming court is at peace with him, then he doesn't mind waiting for a while, slowly devouring the entire Ming Dynasty, in short, for his plan, this world at the end of the Ming Dynasty will inevitably be controlled by him, this is what he wants most!
Time passed slowly, and three months later, 35,000 recruits were trained again, and now the recruit training has its own system, and the training of more than 30,000 people can ensure the completion of quality and quantity.
Lin Feijun was also officially expanded later, from a regular army of 20,000 to 50,000!
And Lin Fei's pro-soldiers have also expanded again, reaching 5,000 people, this time the expansion of pro-soldiers is also a reward for Lin Fei's army, after all, whether it is treatment status or glory, pro-soldiers are far from being comparable to the rest of the army, it can be said that joining the pro-soldiers represents Feihuang Tengda, and also represents Lin Fei's real lineage!
These descendants can all cultivate internal strength, and the future is the most reliable force for him to truly rule this world.
"Now that the 50,000 army has been expanded, the training needs to be stepped up!"
Lin Fei said to more than a dozen henchmen under his command, except for Xu Wuyang and Gao Dazhuang, who are special reasons, the rest of them have climbed up step by step, and their military talent and literacy have reached the top level of this era, and they are also the generals that Lin Fei values the most.
Each of them will lead a brigade of troops, distributed in the key areas from Datong to Tianjinwei, to ensure the security of the two places, and at the same time, they will also step up training to make the army's combat effectiveness stronger.
"Yes, Lord Guogong!"
All the generals have received orders, and now that Lin Feijun has expanded, each of them is rising, and naturally everyone is full of confidence and fighting spirit!
