Chapter 37 Rectification

After hearing Li Banghua's order, Zhang Changying couldn't help but subconsciously glance at the white-haired old soldiers under the school field.

If this is according to the regulations, let them have morning and evening exercises, these old soldiers will not have to die on the spot to show him.

If he turned around and made hundreds of lives because of the exercise, he would not be able to do it as the commander of the five military battalions.

So Zhang Changying felt that this ...... Can't get out.

"Mishi-sama."

Zhang Changying stubbornly said: "The soldiers are negligent in practice because of a lot of secondment affairs on weekdays, and this is not good for direct recovery." ”

"In case ......"

When Zhang Changying said this, he intentionally or unintentionally let go of his figure a little, so that Li Banghua could see the old soldier behind him, and then continued: "In case someone dies suddenly because they can't bear the practice, then I'm afraid we won't be able to bear this responsibility." ”

There is no need for Zhang Changying to point it out at all, Li Banghua knows who Zhang Changying is talking about.

And the reason why he wants to strictly supervise morning and evening exercises, and proposes to be assessed once on the 15th, is to get rid of these old soldiers.

So he said with a cold face: "Daily training is the duty of a soldier. ”

"Now, the official has put an end to the campaign, paid the food and salary on time, and let them practice every day, isn't it right?"

Li Banghua first reprimanded Zhang Changying, then relaxed a little, and said: "The current situation in the Beijing camp is also seen by the official, so you don't need to go around in circles with the official." ”

"These soldiers, those who can practice will stay, and those who can't be trained, the official can call the shots, and give them double salaries this month, so that they can leave the Beijing camp directly."

"But the official said ugly things in front, there is only one chance, miss this opportunity, and when the assessment is not up to standard, they will be eliminated, and the official guarantees that they will not get a penny more than the original salary."

"This ......"

Zhang Changying was a little embarrassed, he felt that on this day, Li Banghuajing had a problem for him, "Lord Yushi, if you give them the opportunity to quit on their own, I am worried that the people of the three major battalions will be clean at that time." ”

"If you're clean, then recruit again!"

Li Banghua did not have the slightest intention of compromise, "The three battalions of the Beijing Division are the foundation of my Ming Dynasty and the last barrier of my Ming Dynasty." ”

"With these old, weak, sick and disabled people in front of them, they can't even lift their knives, can this official still expect them to defend the Ming Dynasty?"

"This official might as well tell you directly, this time the official is ready to leave his life in the three battalions, unless the official is dead, from now on, the three battalions must come according to the standards of the official."

"This official doesn't care what you want to do, and no matter who supports you behind you, in short, whoever dares to obstruct this official, this official will kill whom!"

To tell the truth, the salary standard of the three battalions has never been low, Li Banghua does not believe it, and after he pays the silver in place, there will still be people who want to leave.

Although Li Guozhen is the governor of Beijing, he can only influence a few soldiers with his wine bag and rice bag that only knows how to make money.

What's more, the soldiers of the Beijing camp are weak, even if they take 10,000 steps back, all the soldiers of the Beijing camp are clean, so what can they do?

With the silver taels allocated by His Majesty, is he still afraid that he will not be able to summon soldiers?

Looking at Li Banghua, who had a resolute expression and no room for turn, Zhang Changying couldn't help but sigh, feeling that he was like a mouse in a bellows, angry at both ends.

"Since Lord Goshi has already made a decision, then I won't say much about my humble position."

"It's just that there is something else I want to ask my lord."

Zhang Changying took a deep breath, then stared at Li Banghua, and said, "Lord Yushi just said that the existing soldiers are registered and registered, what about the soldiers who have been seconded?" What about the soldiers who are 'not here'? ”

"According to the records of the military register, there are more than 100,000 people on it, if Lord Yushi really clears them all in one go, I am worried that there will be problems."

Zhang Changying and Li Banghua both knew very well that the so-called 100,000 people, only a slim 20,000 or 30,000 really existed, and the rest were only names registered in the military register.

However, as long as there is a name registered in the military register, then the Beijing battalion will have to pay the money according to this roster, and it is self-evident who this salary will end up into.

And this matter of empty salaries involves too many people and too many problems.

The people and things involved behind this, even if Li Banghua is the imperial history of the left capital, he can't bear it at all.

It is precisely for this reason that Du Wan ignored Li Banghua's identity just now and jumped out directly to fight against Li Banghua.

At this moment, Zhang Changying asked this matter again, just to determine whether Li Banghua had really made up his mind to do this.

Hearing Zhang Changying's question, Li Banghua was silent for a long time.

According to his character, there is no need to ask this question at all, except for the soldiers who have been seconded, he will not hesitate to directly dismiss those who eat empty salaries.

After all, he had already said just now, in order to rectify the Jingying, he didn't even want his own life, what else was there to fear.

But the problem is that when Lao Zhu looked for him yesterday, he gave him a strict order, telling him to only train and leave nothing else, so if he directly dismissed these people, it would be disobedience.

"Hoo ......"

Li Banghua took a deep breath and decided to go back to the emperor and make a final attempt to see if he could change the emperor's mind, "Remove their affairs, let's slow down first." ”

"In this matter, after the official has consulted His Majesty, make a decision."

"Yes."

Zhang Changying heard Li Banghua say this, and his heart couldn't help but feel slightly relieved, as long as Li Banghua was not tough to the end, then this matter could be easily solved.

As for asking Your Majesty, there are so many people who have their hands on the Beijing camp, and when Li Banghua's recital is handed over to the cabinet, it will inevitably be another round of trouble.

With Zhang Chang's understanding of Chongzhen, he felt that this matter would definitely not be resolved in the end.

And the problem that he can figure out, he believes that Li Banghua must also see it clearly, the reason why after knowing this result, he also said that His Majesty would deal with it, in Zhang Changying's view, this is that Li Banghua didn't want to force Li Guozhen and them too quickly, and he also compromised a little.

Zhang Changying thinks this is very good, as long as everyone doesn't fall out, it doesn't affect him to be the commander of the five military camps, you are in secret, you can fight as much as you like, he doesn't bother to care at all.

After discussing the matter of the soldiers, Li Banghua continued to speak: "In addition to the training of the soldiers, all the equipment of the three battalions must be the same as the soldiers, and they should be inspected twice a month. ”

"Whether it's armor, war horses, or firearms, as long as they don't meet the standards, they will all be eliminated."

Li Banghua explained everything in the army, and also ordered Zhang Changying to recruit new soldiers according to his standards from today onwards and replenish the three major battalions.

According to Li Banghua's plan, if nothing else, at most, the Beijing camp will be able to regather more than 50,000 soldiers.

And if these soldiers train for another four months, they dare not say how strong they are, at least it will not be a problem to fight the enemy.

Of course, the premise of all this is based on the assumption that nothing else.

But thinking about Li Guozhen, Li Banghua couldn't think that it was very unlikely that there would be no accident.

It's just that this matter is not something he can control, as a courtier, all he can do is do his best to obey the destiny of heaven, as for the final result, as long as he has a clear conscience, there is not much else to do.
