Wang Jiayan wanted to stay Zhang Ping for a while, how did this Zuo Dudu save Zhou Yuji in Shanxi in the midst of thousands of troops? He admired it, but he couldn't think of it, and if it was him, he wouldn't be able to put himself on it.

In addition, he also wanted to exchange ideas with Zhang Ping about the army's recruitment, training, and future use of troops.

Now, is the army of the dynasty still combative? He is very skeptical, there is no need to look at anything else, the Beijing camp is like this, and the other armies are definitely not much better, the army must be governed by the generals, how should the generals be selected? Wang Jiayan also wanted to hear Zhang Ping's high opinions.

In addition, Li Zicheng has grown to a million people, and the Jianyu of Liaodong is still eyeing him, what kind of strategy should he formulate? He felt that the emperor was right to withdraw Ningyuan's Wu Sangui Department, how should he recover Ningyuan and even Liaodong next? The land cannot be lost just like that.

Zhang Ping's essence of Ning Yuan and Shanhaiguan in the early dynasty was so clear, Wang Jiayan believed that Zhang Ping, the young governor, was definitely far-sighted, and he must have specific ideas, and he even suspected that the withdrawal of Ning Yuan was not thought up by Emperor Zhu Youzhen, but the governor persuaded the emperor, because he knew what the emperor was like.

"Governor, do you have time?"

Zhang Ping knew what Wang Jiayan wanted to do, but he really didn't have time, he wanted to talk to Jiang Dejing about weapons manufacturing first, the reason why he proposed the establishment of an industrial manufacturing bureau was because he knew that the management department of weapons manufacturing was in the Ministry of Industry, and it was difficult to say whether there was a professional military factory under the Ministry of Industry. War is imminent, and the manufacture of weapons is not something that can be done overnight.

The function of the Ministry of Industry to manufacture weapons is in the Yu Heng Division, this Yu Heng Division, there are not many people, and there are really a lot of things in charge, such as the system of national weights and measures, the manufacture of official utensils, the receipt and dispatch of military expenses, military supplies, and the verification and write-off of military expenses, military supplies, and arms manufacturing and expenditures in various places, the procurement of Dongzhu, the management of smelting and casting money, the procurement of copper, lead, and sulfur, and the appointment and dismissal of the supervision of the Baoyuan Bureau. Zhang Ping knew that Yu Hengsi definitely didn't have any professional talents, if these people could understand a little bit, that is, they would only learn when they got to the post, and they would only understand a little bit of the surface.

This is also a matter of no choice, this era is still an era in which everything is inferior, only the reading is high, the hard-working people govern people, and the laborers govern people, the key is what the books you read are the four books and the five classics, which are useless at all.

The national system is sometimes also a major factor affecting social development, everyone thinks that production technology is just a small skill of carving insects, which is done by people in the chin, and science and technology must be developed, so the ghost believes it?

"Lord Wang, so be it! Pontus is very busy, if you wish, go to the place where Pontus lives in the evening, and we can talk for a long night. ”

Wang Jiayan was so happy when he heard this, "Tonight, the lower officials will go to visit the Metropolitan Governor." ”

"Welcome! That's it, Lord Wang can go directly after work, the governor of Pontus lives in the North Post House, let them prepare the wine and food, the long night is not fun, we eat and chat. ”

"Whoever is the official will be bothered."

Zhang Ping returned to the Qianqing Palace and sent Jin Zhijun to report to Zhu Youzhen about sending Bi Maokang to Zhu Youzhen, who was not a member of the cabinet and had no authority to directly send officials to run errands.

"Flintlock pistol?"

"That's right! Flintlock pistol! ”

Zhang Ping told Zhu Youzhen: "This kind of gun should be said to be the most advanced individual weapon in the world at present, the Western army has begun to turn around, we are already backward, people are far away from us, there is no way to send a large number of troops, otherwise we would have been wiped out long ago." ”

"You say we're lagging behind?"

"At least militarily."

"And what does this gun look like?"

"The appearance of the gun is similar at all times, and the firing principle of this gun and the arquebus is the same, but it is not afraid of rain and snow, and it can be used at any time."

"How awesome?"

"Of course!"

"You said Bi Maokang would make it?"

"That's right! He figured it out twelve years ago. ”

"Twelve years ago? Why didn't he give it to me? ”

"Huh! I must have given it to you, you didn't take it seriously, besides, as far as the officials you use can look at this kind of carving insect skills? ”

"Damn! Zhou Yanru misunderstood me? Zhu Youzhen remembered Zhou Yanru again.

"You just know? A soldier who can make a big invention can't be an official anymore, who do you say you use? ”

"Don't say it, don't say it, Xuan'er, you did the right thing, you will arrange this kind of thing directly in the future."

Shame! Shame! Zhu Youzhen is absolutely embarrassed.

"This is definitely not possible, in an emergency, the minister can do this."

"Good! I give you this power, but why should Kim Zhijun go to find Bi Maokang? The military situation is so serious, and the errand of the military department is very heavy? ”

"Hehehehehe! Let me tell you, Jin Zhijun, this guy is a soft bone, Li Zicheng came in, he directly surrendered to Li Zicheng, Li Zicheng failed, and he took refuge in Jianyu. ”

"Really? Kim Zhijun is so hateful! ”

"That's right! This kind of person is very hateful, and the reason why the minister let him go is that the officials of the various ministries have not yet adjusted, and slipping his legs is also regarded as waste utilization, and when he comes back, the idea clicks him. ”

"Hahahaha! You're so damn it, just do it! I agree. ”

"Which minister went to Jiang Dejing to talk about the establishment of the Daming Academy of Sciences."

"Don't look for him yet, he just came, ask for instructions on the establishment of the Agricultural Production and Development Bureau, look for people everywhere, and are arresting people on a business trip."

"That's it! Is Jiang Dejing still quite positive? In the evening, the minister invited him to the North Post House to drink, and chatted while drinking. ”

"Wow! You're going to drink it again! So I will send you two jars of good wine. ”

"Hey, hey! Send two more altars, and the minister also invited Wang Jiayan to talk about the recent strategic deployment. ”

"Then the three of you can't finish two jars?"

"Hey, hey! Your Majesty, the brothers you brought with your ministers have been in the capital for so many days, and they will do errands when they come, and the ministers want to reward them with a few jars of wine to drink, and add a few dishes to them at night to reward them. ”

"Yes! The soldiers you brought are good, you made a meritorious service yesterday, I rewarded them with imperial wine, when are you going to get that intelligence bureau? ”

"The minister thinks so, it's okay for the current Dongchang Fanzi to do something about stealing chickens and dogs, it's really not okay to let them get intelligence, and the people who stayed in Shanxi can't do it, the minister wants to wait for them to assist General Zhou Yuji and Wang Guoxing Marquis to complete the task and all be transferred to the capital to participate in business training, and the qualified group will be discharged into a group, or they will be killed if they go out."

"Hmmm! The Intelligence Bureau is important, you have to hurry. ”

"The minister knows that now the military is still the top priority of our dynasty, military operations, intelligence first."

"I see that those soldiers of yours are good, and yesterday's actions were really neat, compared to my brocade guards."

"Jin Yiwei? Your Majesty, do you still think that your Jinyi Guard is the most powerful army in the world? To say that the old Jinyi Wei is almost the same, I don't know how many people in the Jinyi Wei at this time are gangsters and scoundrels in the capital who spent money to get in, why did the minister recommend Li Ruoqi to the emperor? Not only is he loyal to the emperor, the key is that he is honest and does not deceive, in the past two days, Jinyiwei has been performing various major tasks, and it is not appropriate to clean up internally, you will know if you let Li Ruoqi check it in two days. Jinyiwei is the emperor's personal guard, according to the regulations of the selection is strict, everyone is extraordinary, should be the most powerful army in the country, but after that incident, most of the Jinyiwei have disappeared, why? There are a lot of people who spend money to get in, and only a few of them go to the south to fight against the bandits, where are the others? Went home. If they were all like Li Ruoqi, Jin Yiwei would definitely do something vigorous, why wouldn't there be no record in history? ”

After Zhang Ping finished speaking, Zhu Youzhen was shocked, "Xuan'er, what you said is true?" ”

"Really? In a few days, the court will be in order, can't you let Li Ruoqi check it? With Luo Yangxing and Wu Mengming in charge of Jinyiwei, it's strange if you don't recruit some ruffians? If they don't do this, how can they make money? ”

"You said it was all done by Luo Yangxing?"

"I will know in the first trial."

Zhu Youzhen was angry, "How can you say this? Who else can I trust? ”

"Huh! Your Majesty, this is related to the atmosphere of the imperial court, and related to the advocacy of the country, everyone thinks about their own affairs, everyone thinks about making money, what else is it? This is also the reason why the minister proposed to build a martyr's memorial, the atmosphere is broken, and nothing can get better. Your Majesty, you are also a person who is proficient in history, and in the end of that dynasty, it was not because of the bad atmosphere that the country had no cohesion, but it was precisely because there was no cohesion that not many people cared about the survival of the country, and the court rebelled against their relatives. ”

Zhu Youzhen suddenly seemed to understand something, "Xuan'er, what you said is so right, when I was reading history, I was stuck in this problem, you pointed out me at once, Wang Chengen went to pass the decree, and asked Fan Jingwen and Ni Yuanlu to come over to discuss the matter." ”

Wang Chengen agreed and went to pass the decree, and he was still thinking along the way, as soon as people say it, it is the truth, and our family is really convinced.

"Xuan'er! You see everything thoroughly, how do you do it? ”

"Huh! Your Majesty, isn't it how smart and good at thinking the minister is, because doesn't the minister study history? Many things have been studied thoroughly by later generations, and the minister just knows it. ”

"Hmmm! What you said is reasonable, the so-called authorities are obsessed with bystanders, and in the future, you will have to talk to me more about this matter. ”

"Hey, hey! As long as the emperor prepares the wine and food, as soon as the minister drinks, the head immediately begins to believe in the reins, and many things come out like spring water, if there is no stimulation, sometimes I can't think of anything. ”

"Hahaha! If you want to drink, just say no? Can I not give it to you? In this way, after a while, you can teach the prince and a few of them, so that they can also understand these truths. ”

"Yikes! Your Majesty, you said this, the ministers have forgotten, they haven't seen the prince in the past two days, and the prince asked the ministers to tell him historical stories in this regard! ”

"Really? I have a rule here, they have a very tight study schedule every day, and we are very busy these two days, so we don't have a chance to meet at all. ”

"Actually, the minister thinks that the prince should come out to learn how to govern the country with you, the effect of studying behind closed doors is not good, practice brings true knowledge, and real talent cannot be learned from books."

"Hmmm! You're right! Practice brings true knowledge, this sentence is a wise saying, I listen to you, tomorrow I will ask the prince to follow the court to learn how to govern the country. ”

To say that this Zhu Youzhen has not learned the imperial technique, it is also a good thing, how many emperors in history have prevented their sons from being like thieves, but I don't know if Zhu Cihong has learned this thing? He felt that Zhu Cihong, this kid, was more treacherous.

Fan Jingwen and Ni Yuanlu came in, "Your Majesty, what do you command?" ”

"Huh! The two Aiqing sat down, I said one thing, you should hurry up and implement it. ”

"Please ask the emperor to command."

"Find a prominent position on Chang'an Street, I am going to build a martyr's memorial hall, all the heroes who sacrificed in our dynasty are enshrined, this memorial hall is to be built magnificent, magnificent, all the martyrs who have made significant contributions to the country in the future can enter the memorial hall to enjoy the offering, you have to through the investigation, select the list of heroes who died in the battlefield of defending the country before the dynasty, and put their tablets in the memorial hall immediately after repairing, and commemorate the statues of Yuan Chonghuan, Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting, Sun Chengzong, and Mao Wenlong."

Zhang Ping was surprised, as if he hadn't said Sun Chengzong and Mao Wenlong, but these two people are indeed heroes.

Fan Jingwen and Ni Yuanlu were surprised, how could the emperor suddenly think of this play, and then they understood, and saw what Zhang Ping said to Zhu Youzhen.

But the two of them immediately understood what it meant, this is to encourage morale and encourage everyone to contribute to the country, and the two of them feel that it is very necessary, anyway, the country is not short of money now.

But both of them wondered, this Yuan Chonghuan was ordered by Emperor Chongzhen to be cut with a thousand knives, how could Yuan Chonghuan be the first to bring it up? It is said that Yuan Chonghuan should be regarded as a hero. But whether it is a hero or not, Zhu Youzhen has the final say.

Zhu Youzhen said: "Do you think it's incomprehensible for me to treat Yuan Chonghuan as a hero? To tell the truth, when Zhu Cixuan proposed that Yuan Chonghuan was a national hero, I didn't understand it and was very angry, but after thinking about it carefully, no matter what Yuan Chonghuan did wrong, he resisted Jianyu and achieved great victories in Ningyuan and Ningjin, and he was a hero. As for who can enter the memorial hall, you make a list, and then we will discuss it together. Cixuan is right, as long as the people who died bravely for the country are heroes, including the traitor Shang Kexi's father and brother, they must not tarnish their reputation because of Shang Kexi's rebellion. ”

Zhu Youzhen's words shocked Fan Jingwen and Ni Yuanlu, my mother! This emperor has changed, and he has become so open, which is ahead of the times! This little guy also has the ability, and he actually said that the emperor, a person who doesn't eat oil and salt, is obedient, what kind of thing is reincarnated?
