Chapter 381 If you want to fight well, you must first sharpen your weapons!
"It's good to have faith, but I'll have to check the soldiers and horses first."
Hearing Yue Fei say this, Zhu Gaoxian nodded, this is normal, although he shared a part of his memories with Yue Fei, but a famous general like Yue Fei must be believed with his own eyes, and he will be more sure in his heart.
"The three major battalions are stationed not far from the Beijing Division, and it is also very convenient to review."
Zhu Gaoxian said with a smile:
"I just cleaned it not long ago, and now the three major battalions are basically like commanders and are dedicated to the public."
Yue Fei glanced at him and understood in his heart that since Zhu Gaoxian was now the crown prince and the next emperor of the Ming Dynasty, then this army was bent on the public, so it was naturally towards him......
"Five Military Battalions, Fengzi Battalion, Shenji Battalion......"
Yue Fei pondered for a moment, then said:
"Your three battalions should all be elite soldiers, do you want to equip them all with divine arm bows and giant axes like my back army?"
"After this, you can start training the military formation, and you can ride on foot."
Zhu Gaoxian thought about it, leaned over and asked:
"Are these things expensive?"
Yue Fei said expressionlessly:
"It's a lot of money, and I barely managed to get together a back-and-back army by smashing pots and selling iron, and the rest are just ordinary soldiers."
After Zhu Gaoxian heard this, he immediately waved his hand:
"Build!"
"You tell me the drawings and materials, and I order the Ministry of Industry to allocate a group of skilled craftsmen to develop them as soon as possible.
Anyway, the current Ming finances are basically on his side, and since he is determined to start a war with the Tatars, this cost is indispensable.
It's really not enough, it's a big deal to let Jinyiwei investigate and punish a few more corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and make up for them with the people's fat and people's plaster they embezzled......
"General Yue, then do you want to pull a battalion out by yourself? For example, build another back-up army? ”
Yue Fei was moved after hearing this, but after thinking for a while, he still shook his head and refused.
"Forget it, now it's not my dynasty, and the Beiwei army doesn't have to be rebuilt, I'll help you train these three battalions."
"It takes too much energy to carry the Wei Army, how can you have so much time when you become the Ming Emperor in the future?"
"In my opinion, there are three battalions as the elite of the army, and it is enough to rely on them."
Zhu Gaoxian smiled slightly, he was actually very interested in Yue Fei's invincible back-to-back army, but since Yue Fei had said so, he didn't want to be strong.
Anyway, with the divine arm bow, the long-handled giant axe, and Yue Fei's training in the art of war, the three battalions will definitely be able to quickly improve their strength again, and in the future, with the three battalions as the core, it will be easy to train the Ming army......
Yue Fei Zhengse reminded him:
"I can remind you that military training is very costly, so you must not empty the treasury, and when the time comes, it will be really bad if the people are miserable."
Zhu Gaoxian nodded, he naturally understood the disadvantages of being reckless:
"Don't worry, General Yue, I'm not the one who doesn't know what to do."
"If the army wants to continue to achieve victory, the key lies in the elite, in the logistics, and in the commander."
"I would not do such a stupid thing by emptying the treasury and disregarding the people's livelihood for the sake of fighting a war."
……
When the Ministry of Industry Shangshu was summoned to the Wenhua Palace, he was still a little confused, what did the prince do when he suddenly summoned him?
I haven't heard of any major construction projects recently.
"Song Qing, I came to you alone, I have an important matter that I want to explain to you."
Song Shangshu's face suddenly turned straight, he arched his hand, and said:
"Please also ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for your orders."
Zhu Gaoxian looked at the drawings in his hand again and asked people to hand them to him.
"This, this ......"
Song Shangshu can achieve the position of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, and the doorway is naturally proficient.
At a glance, he could see that there seemed to be something strange about the two drawings handed to him by the prince.
"This is a secret map of weapons that Gu has worked hard to obtain, and it will be of great benefit to the army."
Zhu Gaoxian stood up, walked in front of Song Shangshu, stared at him and said slowly:
"Song Qing, I want you to immediately select a capable craftsman and develop the weapons on it, and the time is limited to half a month, can you do it?"
Song Shangshu was slightly stunned, and did not immediately answer Zhu Gaoxian's words, but lowered his head and looked at the drawings carefully and carefully for a while before raising his head, and his tone was very cautious:
"His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister has taken a cursory look at the whole picture of the drawings, and the specific details still need to be studied carefully, but they should be able to be made."
"Even this drawing, it may consume a lot of materials, and there may be a shortage of manpower......"
Zhu Gaoxian knew that this person's ability was still relatively strong, so when he saw him say this, he was also determined in his heart.
He smiled and patted Song Shangshu's shoulder, and his tone was gentle:
"If you want money and materials, you will let the household department fully cooperate with you."
"Lack of manpower, you choose by yourself, and you agree to everything."
"As long as you can develop the weapons on the drawings, Lone will definitely be rewarded!"
"But there is one thing," Zhu Gaoxian's tone gradually increased:
"You must make these weapons on time for Lone, and you must ensure the quality and quantity!"
"In addition, it must be strictly confidential, and the Lone Club will let the Jinyi Guard be responsible for the guard, and there must be no leakage of any rumors in the workshop!"
"Otherwise, you'll have to touch the head on your neck first."
Song Shangshu is a standard technical official, and he is not usually very keen on officialdom, anyway, for their Ministry of Industry, the main thing is to build palaces and take care of various water conservancy projects.
Therefore, after listening to Zhu Gaoxian's words, he did not show any fear, but stared at the drawings carefully and looked at them again, as if he wanted to engrave the contents of the drawings in his mind, and then said to Zhu Gaoxian very seriously:
"Please rest assured, Your Highness, the minister will go back to gather the master craftsman, and he will definitely complete what His Highness has ordered within the time limit."
"As for the allocation of property, manpower, security, etc., please ask the person you designated by Your Highness to be responsible."
Seeing him like this, Zhu Gaoxian was naturally very happy, and directly called an inner court guard general to come over and arrange this matter.
As the saying goes, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools.
Since he was about to fight with the Tatars, as long as he had these two secret weapons provided by Yue Fei, he would definitely be able to destroy the Tatars.
Then for these skilled craftsmen below, it is naturally better to be polite.
Otherwise, relying on blind pressure alone may affect the progress of weapon manufacturing, and it will be inappropriate to delay the war when the time comes.
"Okay, you go, Song Qing, as long as you do this well, Lone is still the same sentence, and you will definitely be rewarded!"
