Chapter 46 When the horses are happy, we are happy

In the last decade or so, they have often suffered crushing defeats.

Pressed against the floor by Kennu's iron rider, rubbing wildly.

Therefore, they did not have the face to ask the court for a reward.

Thinking that as long as he is not disliked by the court, he will already be Amitabha.

Therefore, the current Chen Weikun has worked very hard to create the illusion that the Shenji Battalion is still in the prime of fighting in front of Zhou Xian.

not only paralyze himself, but also paralyze Zhou Xian.

But after listening to Zhou Xian's praise, the soldiers shouted frantically at this moment as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

Chen Weikun was stunned.

He suddenly felt that the Shenji Battalion, which was very strong back then, was back.

The lost spirit of the army has also been reawakened.

Of course, Chen Weikun quickly shook his head and sensibly warned himself not to deceive himself.

Because a soldier who has lost a battle all his life can suddenly go into battle to kill the enemy?

This is clearly nonsense.

For Chen Weikun, the most important thing is that Zhou Xian is happy.

That's it!

As long as the vanity of the horse master can be satisfied, the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion will be mighty and unyielding, and they will be invincible in the world!

At noon, Zhou Xian ended his visit to the Shenji Battalion, left the barracks, and returned to the palace.

During the whole process, Xu Xianchun found that this horse master had a straight face throughout the whole process.

A similar look seems to be very similar to when he killed Qian Qianyi in the court.

Well, it's like.

Xu Xianchun trembled and distanced himself from Zhou Xian.

For fear that if you don't pay attention, you will be punished by this concubine who changes his face faster than turning a book.

Call......

Zhou Xian exhaled quickly.

Try to let yourself hold back your anger as much as possible.

But this thing is too difficult.

This is also playing Nima!

The forbidden army of the dignified Ming Dynasty and the army defending the important places of Gyeonggi.

They all looked like sick seedlings.

The formation is TM staggering, straining the band.

This......

can make Zhou Xian angry.

It is no wonder that when Li Zicheng attacked the city of Beijing, he was able to enter the palace unimpeded.

That's it?

Block a der, block it.

First of all, Zhou Xian tried not to bother Sun Chuanting for the time being, and let him quell Li Zicheng's rebellion according to his plan.

Well, even if Li Zicheng doesn't come to capture Beijing.

So what?

There is also Jiannu in the north, who gradually compresses the Ming defense line.

There are also the barbarian cavalry of the Mongol Warat.

Right now, with such a urine sex as this god machine battalion, can you still follow yourself to drive the expedition?

Even if Xu Rongbing can train and Hong Chengchou can train his troops, Sun Chuanting can also be strong.

Is it possible to split them in half?

With such an army, Zhou Xian really can't stand it.

Therefore, the first thing he did when he returned to the palace, Zhou Xian told the eunuch Hou Lianhui beside him.

"Hou Lianhui."

"The minions are here."

"In the past two days, you have sent someone to Shaanxi."

"Let's go see the situation on Sun Chuanting's side."

"Yes!"

Zhou Xian didn't dare to disturb Sun Chuanting rashly, but it was okay to send someone to see the battle situation over there.

All in all, now the construction of slaves is rampant.

But Li Zicheng in the territory should not be underestimated.

Zhou Xian wants to do both, but there is no one available in the court.

Not long after, Cao Zhengchun's voice appeared outside the palace gate.

He brought Zhou Xian a rare good news during this time.

That is the official entertainment hall that Zhou Xian asked him to organize, and the daily sales have exceeded 20,000 taels.

What do you mean?

That's a net income of 20,000 taels of silver a day.

That's a lot of numbers.

More than 7 million taels of silver in a year is enough for Zhou Xian to prepare for a new army that has been screaming in combat effectiveness.

"Cao Zhengchun."

"The old slave is here."

"In the future, one-third of your income in the official entertainment hall will be allocated to your majesty's treasury, and the next time you report to your majesty, you will also make up for your majesty's dividends for this month."

Hearing this, Cao Zhengchun was a little confused.

"Master Horse, Old Slave ......"

"Needless to say, I understand. After all, you've been following Your Majesty for too long. ”

Zhou Xian said lightly, revealing a murderous smile.

Cao Zhengchun's body trembled, and he only felt a chill in his back spine.

He didn't understand at all, how did he know about his report to Emperor Chongzhen?

"Let's go down."

"The minions are terrified." Cao Zhengchun trembled nervously, trying to explain to Zhou Xian.

"I'll let you go down." Zhou Xian's tone was emphasized.

Cao Zhengchun didn't dare to say anything anymore, and hurriedly retreated respectfully and respectfully.

Early the next morning!

Zhou Xian sat on the Taishi chair on the left side of the dragon head of the Qianqing Palace again.

Hou Lianhui cleared his throat: "In the early court today, the secretaries have something to do, and they have nothing to do to retreat." ”

"Chitose Lord, the lower officials have something to play."

Zhou Xian looked at it, and the person who spoke was Wang Mingrui, the secretary of the household department.

"Say."

"Chitose Lord, right now Jiannu is assembled thirty miles north of Shanggu County."

"Front-line military report, it seems that they are going to attack Shanggu in the near future."

Zhou Xian looked at the many ministers in the hall, frowned and asked, "Why didn't the military department report such a major event?" ”

Yan Mingtai, the secretary of the military department, was about to be out of the queue in embarrassment.

Wang Mingrui said: "My lord, the military department has not yet known about this matter. It was the military information transmitted to the lower officials by the road administration officer sent by the lower officials to repair the road to the north. ”

"Oh."

"That road chief, you must be rewarded."

"Yan Mingtai."

"The minister is here."

"You've got a snack for the valley."

"My lord, after the official disperses the court, he will convey the military order to urge the border guards."

"Well, after all, Shanggu Military Town is a border town comparable to the Xuanfu Army, so you must not lose it."

"Don't worry, my lord, it's the dog who guards Shanggu County now, and the old man told him that if Jiannu attacks, he will stick to it."

"The ancient county town is high and deep, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the old minister hoarded more than half of the red-clothed cannons in Liaodong in Shanggu."

The person who spoke was Sun Chengzong, he said so.

Zhou Xian is not worried.

Although the Jiannu of this period was strong, it was not so strong that it was outrageous.

Cavalry and artillery are tough?

It's pure head iron.

And Sun Chengzong will not be above the court, boasting in front of everyone.

"Okay."

Zhou Xian nodded and said to Wang Mingrui: "Wang Aiqing, how did you survey the damaged roads in the north?" ”

"Back to my lord, the lower officials have made detailed records."

"The northern region, which was only affected by the war of Jiannu, more than half of the land in Hebei and Shandong, was damaged for 170 miles, and if it is to be repaired, it will take 9.6 million taels of silver."

"What if we rebuild it directly?"

As soon as Zhou Xian's words came out, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were stunned.

Reconstruction?

Rebuilding official roads?

This is a shocking project!

You must know that the official roads of every dynasty in history were built with all their might at the founding of the country.

And it may not be able to be completed in ten or twenty years.

What's wrong with this?

If you say that you can repair the road surface, you can walk in front of you.

Suddenly on a whim to engage in infrastructure construction?

The most important thing is to build roads, and it depends on how they are repaired.
