Chapter 344: The Young Army Expands Again!

Back in the city, Zhu Jianji first went to inspect the Academy of Engineering, and according to the demand, instructed the Academy of Engineering to continue to reserve talents, and recruited embroiderers who were good at weaving, and began to develop Jenny machines.

Jenny is actually quite simple.

But there is a specialization in the art industry, and Zhu Jianji still plans to let professional people solve this problem.

If Jenny machine comes out, then the people of Daming can be properly solved in the piece of clothing, plus sweet potatoes have been promoted and planted, and within a few years, the food problem will be solved.

The population will start to skyrocket.

With the population explosion, the pressure on health care and education will follow.

In particular, the medical reform is a guarantee to ensure that the Ming Dynasty moves from the royal road to the hegemony, and the medical level does not go up, and there are many lives and deaths, and it is difficult to achieve the effect of population explosion in a short period of time.

If Zhu Jianji wants to build the Ming Dynasty into a blue star hegemon in his lifetime, especially for future development, if he wants to occupy the territory of the oil-rich countries in the Middle East as his own, he must have a large population.

After arranging the work at the Academy of Engineering, on the way back to the imperial city, Zhu Jianji called Liu Jing to the chariot frame, and after such and such instructions, Liu Jing immediately went to arrange manpower.

Zhu Jianji instructed two things.

The first thing is to continue to strengthen the infiltration of Mobei, especially the Jurchens.

Be sure to be clear about the Jurchen's every move.

This is important.

Because the end of the Ming Dynasty comes from the Jurchen entry.

Zhu Jianji will definitely strangle this situation before it happens.

What's more, in the spring of next year, when preparing for Jingtai Liting, knowing that the enemy will win a hundred battles, we must clearly grasp what measures Li Gunaha has taken in the northeast, and when we are conquest, we can let go of it.

The second thing is to install the details.

But the object is Annan.

Because Baozong and Li Sicheng are currently inseparable, Zhu Jianji hopes that Baozong can defeat Yunnan, and when the time comes, he can only bring people to receive it.

Well, provided that Han level did not defect.

Therefore, it is necessary to let the fine work of Jinyiwei go to Annan, and help Baozong collect information as much as possible, infiltrate Annan's civil and military officials, and strive to corrupt Annan from the inside.

Zhu Jianji has such an idea: to form a crushing control over other countries other than the Ming Dynasty like the beautiful country does to Europe, for example, the national leader of Ukraine turned out to be from the United States.

So it's normal for the king of Annam to be a Ming person.

returned to the imperial city and went to the Qianqing Palace, but Lao Zhu was not there, and when he asked the eunuch on duty in the palace, he said that Lao Zhu and Queen Hang went to the East Palace together.

Zhu Jianji was not in a hurry to return to the East Palace.

In the spring of next year, the Jurchen Jingtai court will be ploughed, and the Donggong Military Research Institute has been asked to prepare 30,000 firearms and equipment, but at present, there are only 20,000 people in the young army of the Donggong, and the army needs to be expanded by 10,000.

Let people go to the Sixth Department to inform the governors of Jiuqing and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies in Kyoto to discuss the matter.

Now the Ming Dynasty has no money and cannot carry out military reform, but the expansion of the young army is a necessary thing, and it is necessary to find important people from the military department.

This is a major national event and needs to be discussed by Jiuqing.

lest the courtier Ziye say that Zhu Jianji is dictatorial.

Jiuqing and the governors soon gathered in the Qianqing Palace, and found that His Majesty was not there, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was sitting behind the imperial desk, and they were all a little surprised, secretly thinking that His Majesty Jingtai's operation was likely to be a precursor to the Zen position.

Maybe there only needs to be one more innovation, and Zhu Qiyu is willing to Zen.

Lay down Annan, or Jurchen.

In this way, His Majesty's martial arts will be there, and he will not continue to stay on the throne to rob His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of political achievements, and according to the current situation, it will probably be the last year or two.

Hang Min was in the Academy of Engineering, and Zhu Jianji didn't wait for him.

To everyone: "Today I went to inspect the Donggong Military Research Institute and the Academy of Engineering, according to the current level of firearms production, I estimate that before the end of this year, the existing batch of firearms of the young army can be iteratively replaced, in this way, the original 20,000 Dongfeng rifles of the Donggong Young Army, but pick and choose, or can dig out about 5,000, these 5,000 are unlikely to be scrapped, but the young army does not need this old-fashioned Dongfeng rifle, so these 5,000, Lone intends to equip it to the border army or regimental camp, why do you think the Qing family? ”

When everyone heard this, their eyes immediately turned red.

Especially the governors of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies immediately looked at Yu Qian with a hostile face.

These 5,000 Dongfeng rifles will be rushed to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.

Equipped with local capital divisions.

Especially the border army.

There is an urgent need for such powerful firearms.

Yu Qian's face was silent, his age was already past the time to be competitive, and Yu Qian knew that whether it was the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies or the Ministry of War, the so-called military power was a false phenomenon.

Let's try it soon, everyone. 】

The military power of the Ming Dynasty is now firmly controlled by His Majesty and the Crown Prince.

In addition to the military generals, the transfer of military horses, the distribution of military salaries, and the armament, the governor's office and the military department of the five armies cannot rule alone, and must go through the Qianqing Palace or the East Palace.

Since the elimination of the Tang family's relatives and the suppression of the civil official group, His Majesty Zhu Qiyu, with the support of the Jiuqing, has gradually returned the military power to the imperial power.

So it doesn't matter who these five thousand Dongfeng rifles are given to.

Zhu Jianji saw it in his eyes, and his heart was suddenly surprised, so he smiled and said: "Then there is no need to discuss, give the Datong border army, pass on the will of the orphan, let Zhao Fu, who is stationed in Datong, select five thousand elites to form a Shenji battalion, and after the New Year, the Donggong Young Army will distribute five thousand Dongfeng rifles, and will continue to distribute the corresponding ammunition after the year." ”

The governors of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies were overjoyed.

I didn't expect to get 5,000 firearms so easily.

Zhu Jianji's next sentence made these governors understand the reason, "Since the Datong border army has added 5,000 Dongfeng firearms, the combat power has soared, and the strength of the troops can be appropriately reduced, and this year Li Gu Naha actually stole my Daming firearms technology, the wolf's ambition is obvious, Lone plans to conquer the Jurchens after the beginning of spring next year, and the young army of the East Palace is only 20,000 people, and the strength is slightly shallow, so Lone plans to expand the army by 10,000 people, and select 10,000 elites from the garrisons in Datong and its surroundings to be incorporated into the Young Army of the East Palace, do you think it is feasible?" ”

The governors of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies did not object.

His Highness is already very kind.

With the current strength of the imperial power, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could have ordered the selection of people from the local capital divisions of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to join the young army, but he did not, but took 5,000 Dongfeng rifles in exchange.

It belongs to the exchange of interests between monarchs and ministers.

Yu Qian, the secretary of the Ministry of War, said: "Your Highness, Datong is a border army, and now the Jurchens are building firearms in the north of Liaodong, which cannot be underestimated, and in the year, the weather is treacherous, although our country has taken precautions in the people's livelihood projects to ensure that the people live and work in peace and contentment, but the Mongolian departments in Mobei have suffered disasters year after year, and they are likely to disturb the border, so it is best for the border army to not move, but the expansion of His Royal Highness's young army is the trend of the times, and Weichen thinks that the elite can be drawn from the regimental camp to supplement the young army. ”

The young army can actually be restructured.

However, Zhu Jianji is still the prince, and this operation has to wait for Zhu Qiyu to take the throne.

When everyone heard this, they were secretly touched.

Who would have thought that Yu Shaobao, who was in full swing back then, single-mindedly controlling the military power, and did not dare to let the imperial power wantonly and feared that the next Tumubao would be so vigorously supporting the expansion of the young army.

Yu Shaobao has a lot of trust in His Royal Highness the Prince!

Zhu Jianji was also secretly happy in his heart.

After all, he made Yu Shaobao a stronger person.

said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then do not move the border army, transfer 10,000 people from the regiment and battalion into the young army, and hand over the matter to Yu Shaobao, and complete the matter within half a month." ”

Yu Qian led the order.

Zhu Jianji was in a happy mood.

Young Army......

30,000 people!

After the end of the year, equipped with the latest firearms, 30,000 young troops can sweep all countries in this era.

It's time to expand outward.

As soon as the cement and steam engine are made......

There is no such thing as fighting but not curing.

At that time, the first thing to be done is to completely incorporate Mobei into the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

Because Mobei has been Chinese territory since ancient times!
