Zhu Houzhao hasn't had such a pleasure for a long time. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In other words, I have never felt so full of hope as I am now, and then reprimanded the masters with a straight face.

You, you, you, and you.

Don't you usually talk nonsense every day? Didn't you say that you want to govern a big country? Bah, how can the new army of the town come out? Otherwise, how can this town and government treat one as ten, my wise eyes are like torches, without these wise eyes, how can I look at Ye Chunqiu?

What is this, this is a harbinger of the Holy Monarch.

What's more, Zhu Houzhao seemed to see hope all of a sudden, and he couldn't wait to give himself a high hat of Zhenguo Gong now, Zhenguo Gong is cooler than being the Son of Heaven.

Several ministers and ministers couldn't say anything today, and only only promises remained.

What can be said? Usually, as soon as Zhu Houzhao talks about how to pacify the Japanese, how to break the captives, and how to train the troops, the faces of the ministers will be pulled down, their reasons are very simple, the people below just perform their duties, Your Majesty don't worry about this, the people below can always do things well.

But now, slap in the face.

Fortunately, at this time, even Xie Qian, who was the most excited, was immersed in joy, and he didn't bother to bother with Zhu Houzhao.

After a reprimand, Zhu Houzhao said unsatisfied: "Zhuwei wants to get rid of the old evils, and learn from the new army of Zhenguo, Zhuqing will retire for the time being, and Ye Aiqing will stay." ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and withdrew.

In the warm pavilion, only Zhu Houzhao and Ye Chunqiu were left, Zhu Houzhao exhaled, let out a sigh, and finally covered his stomach and smiled.

Ye Chunqiu looked at this guy...... It's sad, sometimes I think he's good, sometimes I think this guy is ...... Well, it's still not a slander.

"Ye Aiqing ......"

Zhu Houzhao stood up, he looked extremely energetic at this time, looking at Ye Chunqiu with bright eyes, which was completely different from the decadence of the previous days.

He stepped forward, directly slapped Ye Chunqiu's chest, and said, "I thought you had an accident, it seems that Jiren has his own natural appearance, how is Fang Cai's performance, is there a male lord?" ”

Ye Chunqiu said without hesitation: "Your Majesty is the male lord. ”

Zhu Houzhao laughed happily: "When others say this, I don't believe it, but if you say this, I believe it." ”

Actually, I lied to you too, Ye Chunqiu said silently in his heart.

Zhu Houzhao put his hands behind his back, looking full of ambition: "The new army of Zhenguo is really an eye-opener for me, I would never have imagined that those people are so illiterate, if it weren't for today, I would still think that the new army of Zhenguo is really vulnerable, finally ...... I feel like there's a lot to do now, have you just heard me clearly? I want to get rid of the shortcomings of the guard, all the guards in the world, from now on, they must follow the example of the new army of Zhenguo, Ye Aiqing, I want to be a promising son of heaven, this is your encouragement to me, I must do what I say, you come and see, what is the secret of training the new army? I spread the word ......"

Ye Chunqiu saw that he was arrogant, thought about it, and then said: "The most important thing in training the new army is to govern the army strictly, and the drill of the new army of Zhenguo is four hours a day, which is the basic, and occasionally it has to be drilled." ”

After four hours, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but speak: "When you say this, I finally know where the shortcomings of my Daming Guard are, oops...... Such a simple problem, I haven't seen it before, this group of fools. If you hadn't reminded me, I'd have been kept in the dark right now. Okay, I've memorized this one, and I'm going to spread it. ”

Ye Chunqiu looked at Zhu Houzhao with strange eyes, in fact, he didn't want to splash Zhu Houzhao cold water, but he still said: "I just want to practice for four hours a day, but I can't let the soldiers be undersupplied, Your Majesty is in the palace every day, but if Your Majesty is allowed to practice, can you afford it?" ”

"Uh......" Zhu Houzhao couldn't answer for a while.

Ye Chunqiu said again: "Your Majesty can hold on, and the ministers can also hold on, if you give the best supplies, four hours a day, it's nothing, although the new army only has a hundred people, but every day you have to kill a dog, two sheep, and a few chickens and ducks, more than 100 eggs, and 100 meters of white flour and 100 catties, um...... The minister will do the math, and it will cost about a dozen taels of silver in a day, of course, this is only the most basic, after all, since you want to supply, you have to hire someone to supply, in this way, even if it is thirty taels a day, it is almost nine hundred taels a month, and it is about ten thousand taels a year, oh, this is just the most basic expenses, of course, the minister is to report to many miles, in fact, there is no need for so much, it is estimated that seven or eight thousand taels is enough......

Zhu Houzhao's face collapsed suddenly.

Embarrassing.

10,000 taels of silver a year for 100 people, which is only a relatively basic expense...... Well, if it is a thousand people, it is 100,000 taels, and 10,000 people is 1 million taels, that is to say, all the silver taxes of the Ming Dynasty now add up, and they can only support 30,000 such 'elite soldiers'......

30,000 ...... And the army of the Ming Dynasty is as many as one or two million.

Ye Chunqiu was afraid that Zhu Houzhao would not believe it, and then said: "Ordinary guards, take the pro-army as an example, their treatment is reasonable, but it is only three meals a day to be full, but after all, the nutrition is insufficient, if Your Majesty lets the minister practice for four hours, the minister will not be a problem, but if Your Majesty only gives me white rice, I don't see much oil, but let the minister practice for four hours, I am afraid that the minister will not only not become a soldier, but it will not take a few months, and he will die of exhaustion." Therefore, in order to train the new army, the first thing is to have silver, and the ministers must first recruit a hundred people, and the same is true. ”

Zhu Houzhao's mood became very melancholy, and all of a sudden, he fell from the clouds, and it turned out to be ...... It's still money.

If all the guards follow the example of the new army, I am afraid that in less than a month, the treasury will be empty.

It seems that Fang Cai, he told a few masters that he wanted the guards to follow the example of the new army, okay, I hope they didn't take it to heart, and I won't mention it in the future.

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but say: "Ye Aiqing, could it be that the new army can only have these 100 people forever?" ”

Ye Chunqiu shook his head, but Zhu Houzhao rekindled his hope: "Your Majesty, that's why the Zhenguo Mansion needs to earn a lot of silver, and if there is silver, there will be a new army, and if there is no silver...... There are only military households. ”

The word "military household" sounded to Zhu Houzhao, but it was like a snake and scorpion, he couldn't help but shudder, and hurriedly said, "I ...... To earn money...... Of course, it was handed over to Ye Aiqing to earn. ”

Ye Chunqiu pursed his lips and smiled: "Minister...... I will live up to His Majesty's trust. ”

Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up, and he felt more and more that Ye Chunqiu was credible, and now he felt so good when he looked at Ye Chunqiu, who was jumping around and then always looking old.
