"On the slope at the foot of Changping, it was ordered that all those who are over five feet five tall and under thirty-five years old and serve in the army will be paid fifteen taels and one year."

"In addition, the whole family of the soldier is divided into land according to the head, one mu per person, exempted from taxation for two years, and only needs to pay two percent of the harvest with the imperial horse supervisor in the third year."

On the school stage, Zhu Youzhen was a big deal as soon as he opened his mouth, and he targeted the tenants of more than 1.6 million people behind the imperial horse supervisor.

1.6 million people, even if there are only 800,000 men after the men and women are half, and less than one in 100 of them is 5 feet 5 tall, it is enough to find 8,000 people.

And this is not the end, Zhu Youzhen continued:

"In addition, in Beizhili, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Shandong, Henan, and even Jiangnan, Zhejiang, or in the rest of the three provinces of Liangjing and Guangxi, except for Yunnan, Guizhou, and Guangxi, notices of recruitment can also be issued."

"Daming 60 million Dingkou, can't you find a man over 45,000 feet five?"

"Uh......" Hearing the words of His Royal Highness, Wang Chengen could only say with difficulty:

"Your Highness, if it is according to the salary of fifteen taels of silver a year, I am afraid that the imperial horse supervisor will not be able to continue......"

Wang Chengen is not telling a lie, but the imperial store, plus the imperial village, and the pasture of the imperial horse supervisor, after these places are rectified, at most 700,000 taels.

Not to mention the three guards of Yulin, if the four guards and one battalion alone are full, there will be 25,400 people, and each person will have fifteen taels of silver a year, which is 381,000 taels.

This is only the military salary, 25,400 people, at least 300,000 stone of grain per year, and the annual income of the imperial horse supervisor is only 1.2 million stone of grain and straw.

At this count, the grain that can be sold is only 900,000 stones, plus the straw bundles, the maximum income is 400,000 taels, plus the 170,000 taels of the imperial store, the annual income is only 570,000 taels.

570,000 taels were used to raise an army of 380,000, so there would be only 190,000 taels.

This is only counting the staple food, if you count the chicken, duck and fish meat for the New Year's holidays, then at least 30,000 or 40,000 taels of silver will be eaten, and then there will only be 110,000 taels left.

However, this is only the use of the four guards and one battalion.

Next to the four guards and one battalion, there are still the men and horses of the three guards of Yulin at the moment.

The three guards and horses, after the full staff, plus the military salary, will also use at least 400,000 taels of silver a year, so the imperial horse supervisor can't afford to raise it at all, and Zhu Youzhen also knows this.

But the army he wants is not an army that is just stupid to stay in the capital.

At the moment, he has a good opponent to use for training, and that is the Nekhalkha Mongol tribe.

The territory of the Mongol tribes in Nekhalkha is located in the vast hilly steppe area in the northeast of Yanshan and the west of the Liaoxi Corridor, and the army is strong.

The total population of the five major divisions is about 150,000, and the strength is between 20,000 and 40,000, which are basically all lightly armed cavalry, with only a small number of heavy cavalry, but there are hundreds of thousands of cattle, sheep and horses.

Judging from the cattle, sheep and horses alone, they are very rich, and since the forty-third year of Wanli and the establishment of the Ming Dynasty after the establishment of the mutual market, they have gained a short period of stability, and I am afraid that it is not impossible for cattle and sheep to exceed one million.

Due to the special geographical location of Inner Khalkha, Chahar Mongolia in the west, Horqin Mongolia in the north, Houjin in the east, and Guangning in the south, between the Ming Dynasty, Chahar and Houjin, there are many opportunities to be co-opted.

At present, Inner Khalkha Mongolia is divided into two large divisions and five sub-divisions, one of which is the Bayott Division, Taiji is a man named Engdel, and he is Nurhachi's son-in-law, the first Mongol concubine of Houjin.

This Engdel obviously belongs to the unsubdued kind.

Compared with him, he relied more on the two major parts of the Inner Khalkha of the Ming Dynasty, and the two Taiji, Fried Flower and Zaisai, were able to be won over by Zhu Youzhen.

It's just a pity that in March last year, after Nurhachi won the great victory of Sarhu, he fell into Kaiyuan in June and captured Tieling in July.

Since the place of trade between the three tribes of Ongirat, Bayuet, and Zarut and the Ming Dynasty was Tieling, Tieling was conquered by the Later Jin, which meant that the three tribes lost the market entrance with the Ming Dynasty.

As a large part of the Inner Khalkha Taiji, Zaisai contacted more than 20 people from Zalut Taijibak, Seben, and Korqin Belminan's son, Sang'er Zhai, and Taiji, and gathered more than 10,000 troops to prepare to ambush the Houjin army and regain control of Tieling.

As a result, Nurhachi personally led the army to counterattack the Zai Sai army, capturing all the heads and brains of the Zai Sai side, and Zai Sai, the leader of the five Inner Khalkha tribes that was once rampant, was broken in the first battle.

The result of the battle of Tieling stunned the five tribes of the Inner Khalkha Beyler, and in order to save Zaisai's life, the Inner Khalkha Mongols asked for 10,000 heads of livestock, plus Zai Sai's two sons and a daughter, in exchange for Zaisai to return.

Nurhachi did not kill Zaisai, but used Zaisai to hold the five Inner Khalkha hostages, sent ministers to Inner Khalkha, and signed an alliance with the five Beylers, and almost all the powerful nobles of the five Inner Khalkha tribes were present at this meeting.

At this point, all Inner Khalkha fell to Houjin.

Therefore, it stands to reason that the Nekhalkha Mongols, who were entrenched in the northern remnants of Yanshan less than 300 miles away from Changping at the foot of Zhu Youzhen, were the enemies of the Ming Dynasty at this time.

However, all military operations revolve around economics and politics, and not all Nekharkha tribes are unavailable to him.

These tribes all need to exchange markets with the Ming Dynasty to ensure the lives of herdsmen and nobles, which means that they will only superficially obey the Houjin, and will not send troops to attack the Ming in order to help the Houjin.

Zhu Youzhen read the military newspaper of the Ministry of War and had a general understanding of the situation in Inner Khalkha.

Although the five tribes of Inner Khalkha signed an alliance with the Houjin, not every lord followed the covenant, and the two brothers Chungnen and Ang'a, led by the Zalut tribe, and other small tribes of Beyler, often robbed the envoys of the Houjin and robbed the property and livestock.

From here, as long as Zhu Youzhen makes a surprise soldier and defeats the die-hard Houjin's Engdel at some point, he will be able to deter the rest of the Inner Khalkha tribes.

At that time, it is only necessary to establish an official mutual market with the four ministries in the area of Baima Pass, and then the four ministries will fall to themselves at that time.

The cattle, sheep and horses plundered from the Engdel Department could enrich the wealth of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and the complete fall of the Four Ministries to the Ming Dynasty would bring embarrassment to the political situation of the Later Jin.

Zhu Youzhen can use the imperial store to carry out mutual markets, and the four departments are mutually beneficial and enrich the imperial horse prison.

Not to mention anything else, as long as his soldiers and horses are enough to suppress the four departments of the Inner Khalkha, a simple coal and salt can make the four departments honest when they are in the market.

Although the Xiaoice period has not yet come, the low temperature period has come.

The trees in the northern part of Yanshan will always be cut down by them, and the cattle and sheep will have to graze, and once Zhu Youjian makes honeycomb coal, he can harvest four parts.

Honeycomb coal is not difficult, when Zhu Youzhen was young in his previous life, there was a honeycomb coal factory not far from his home, and the craftsmanship was very simple.

He also learned about the price of coal in the Shuntianfu area, and ten catties of medium coal were only thirteen yuan.

According to the ratio of coal and soil 10:3, the cost of getting 130 catties of honeycomb coal is only 130 wen, which is equal to one catty and one penny.

He can use conscription to ask the imperial horse supervisor to send one person from each household, and under the labor of 300,000 people, there is no labor cost.

It doesn't matter if there is no accelerant, just a large amount and a full tube.

Even if he sells 1,300 catties of honeycomb coal for the price of an inferior horse, he will make money.

The cost of 1,300 catties of honeycomb coal is at most 123 yuan, and according to burning 40 catties a day, it is enough to burn day and night for a month.

Even if the winter lasts for 120 days, at most it is just four inferior horses.

That is to say, honeycomb coal, which costs less than five taels of silver, can be exchanged for four inferior horses worth nearly thirty taels of silver.

Therefore, in Zhu Youzhen's mind, he has already begun to prepare how to greet the inner Khalkha, and at this moment, the selection of soldiers under the school field is over......
