279 The emperor asked the soldiers to be trained

Emperor Long Qian laughed and said, "Your idea is very interesting, you can give it a try, but you can't use my name." ”

No matter how ridiculous Emperor Longqian is, it is impossible for him to reveal his true identity in a private newspaper.

"You just open a new section to discuss how to save the country." Emperor Longqian continued to look at Jia Baoyu seriously, "Let Wang Companion dock with you in this piece, I want to see this newspaper every day." ”

Wang Chengen hurriedly said, "It's Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Long Qian threw the newspaper aside and said, "There is another important matter for you to come over today. ”

He paused for a moment, and then said: "Wang Ziteng, the envoy of the Jingying Festival, is your uncle, and he recommended you to train to suppress bandits, what do you think?" ”

Emperor Longqian's eyes were deep, and his voice was full of sadness.

The dignified king of a country actually wants a young man who is not as weak as the crown to train to save the country, which is simply a big joke in the world.

Jia Baoyu nodded and said, "It's okay to train soldiers, but it's this silver and food?" ”

Soldier training costs money, this is a reason that everyone understands, and military training is to burn silver, if you want to train an elite soldier, you have to pile up the silver like mountains and seas.

The Yue family army, the Qi family army, and the Tianxiong army all relied on sufficient salaries to achieve combat effectiveness.

An army without silver can only plunder everywhere, but this will lead to corrupt military discipline and low combat effectiveness, and can only bully the common people, and when they encounter a strong enemy, they will collapse at the first touch.

Emperor Longqian was silent for a while, and said, "I took out 10,000 taels from the inner treasury to train you in the army, can you repel the rogues?" ”

Ten thousand taels?

Jia Baoyu almost didn't laugh out loud.

10,000 taels is not enough to even plug the teeth!

Not to mention anything else, an army of 1,000 people, every day people eat horses and chew, the cost is hundreds of taels, and this is not counting equipment.

If it is a firearms unit, the cost is higher, and if it is a wartime state, 10,000 taels a day is about the same.

Therefore, war is a gold-swallowing monster, fighting to the end, fighting for national strength.

Although the national strength of the Tartars is not comparable to that of the Great Zhou, every time you fight the Tartars, it is not the strength of the whole country, if you really ignore it and launch a national war, ten Tartars are not enough to fight.

It's just that it requires great dominance and coordination, and if it is at the beginning of a dynasty, it can be achieved.

Right now?

It's simply impossible!

It has been decadent for more than 200 years, it has rotted to the roots, no one wants to fight, no one will fight, no one dares to fight.

Bad money drives out good money, this is the law of the market, but also the law of dynasties.

Those who are capable and capable of doing it are almost all squeezed out of the imperial court, and the rest are those who only eat and don't do it, and they also exclude others from doing it.

Under such a system, it is good to do more and make more mistakes, to do less and to make fewer mistakes.

Therefore, the first assistant of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the non-stick pan Wen Tiren has been in power for the longest time, and the others can do it for a year.

Jia Baoyu is no longer able to complain.

He looked at the lonely figure of Emperor Longqian, and he didn't know why, but he felt pitiful.

"Your Majesty, 10,000 taels of ministers can only give it a try, but in other aspects, can you give convenience to the ministers?"

Emperor Longqian breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that Jia Baoyu would open his mouth and ask him for food, but he really didn't have it, "But it doesn't matter, as long as you don't want silver, you can do whatever you want!" ”

Jia Baoyu asked for a piece of paper and directly listed all the things he needed.

"Your Majesty, everything the ministers want is on this."

Wang Chengen handed the paper to Emperor Longqian, who looked at it one by one and said with a smile: "The place where the soldiers are trained, firearms, and the sword of Shangfang?" ”

"I said Jia Baoyu, you are also a lion's mouth, can Shang Fang's sword be given casually?"

Emperor Longqian's heart was forever painful, and Yuan Chonghuan took the Shang Fang sword he gave him and killed Mao Wenlong, leading to the Dongjiang Mutiny.

If not, how dare the Tartars repeatedly offend?

"Shang Fang's sword can't be given, but where do you want to choose this training place?"

Jia Baoyu did not hide it, and said: "The minister wants to train troops in Tianjin. ”

"Tianjin, it seems to be Feng Yuanyang's territory." Wang Chengen said, "Feng Yuanyang, the governor of Tianjin, and Cao Youyi, the chief soldier of Tianjin. ”

Feng Yuanyang is the governor of Tianjin, in history Li Zicheng broke through the capital, Feng Yuanyang was ready to organize his subordinates to resist, who knew that the army was ready to arrest him and surrender to Li Zicheng.

Later, he fled back to his hometown and died of illness in his hometown of Hai'an.

Emperor Longqian asked: "The land of Gyeonggi is very extensive, why did you choose Tianjin as a place for military training, in my impression, the soldiers and horses in Tianjin do not seem to be strong. ”

Not to mention not being strong, Tianjin's soldiers have been synonymous with weak chickens since ancient times.

Jia Baoyu said in his heart, it was because the Tianjin military garrison and the general soldiers were weak chickens that I went, and if it was the same as the Guanning Iron Cavalry, I would send food.

The Great Zhou Dynasty did not lack soldiers who could fight, but people who could fight.

The generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty had to fight not only with the Tartars, but also with the civilian officials, and sometimes with the emperor.

In history, the Great Ming Pillar Shi Sun Chuanting was forced to death by Emperor Chongzhen.

Therefore, Jia Baoyu wanted to choose a suitable place to train his troops, this place could not be too far from the capital, and it could not be too close to the capital, and it had to have a certain economic foundation.

Thinking about it, Tianjin is the most suitable.

"According to what you said, from now on, you will be promoted to Tianjin Left Guard Qianhu, and you will go to Tianjin tomorrow for military training!"

When Jia Baoyu walked out of the Forbidden City, he still had an extra copy of the farewell and the edict of a thousand households in his hand.

Wang Chengen personally sent him out of the palace gate, "Lord Jia, congratulations, from today, you will be a military attache from the sixth grade!" ”

Jia Baoyu said helplessly: "Princess, I just won the case of Shuntian Mansion, and a small thousand households sent me away?" I still want to be the champion. ”

Wang Chengen smiled on his face, and said to Jia Baoyu: "Lord Jia, there is no shortage of champions in the imperial court now, what is lacking is Qi Shaobao and Lu Xiangsheng.

Besides, your ancestor is the Duke of Rongguo, who started with military merits, and he can still inherit the title if he has made military exploits!

Maybe Lord Jia can revive the glory of the Rongguo Mansion, and when the time comes, the Rongguo Mansion will be one of the three kingdoms, and the monarchs and ministers will get along, and it will surely go down in history and become a good story. ”

Jia Baoyu also saluted: "Princess, don't call me Lord Jia, just call me by my nickname, in terms of official position, you are much older than me." ”

Wang Chengen took a step forward and said intimately: "I'm obsessed with how old you are, so I will shout at you Brother Jia, and tell you the truth, the emperor doesn't think about tea and food these days, and worries about this stream of rogues every day."

If anyone can exterminate the Liukou, he will definitely become the mainstay of the Great Zhou, and he will soar in the future, just around the corner. ”

"Brother Wang is polite, thank you Brother Wang for your guidance, if you can improve in the future, you will definitely not forget your brother's kindness."

Jia Baoyu is now without any psychological burden.

What's wrong with calling a eunuch a brother?

Aren't eunuchs human?

Sometimes, these physically mutilated ones are more reliable than those loyal generals!

Jia Baoyu took out a silver ticket as usual and quietly stuffed it for Wang Chengen, this eunuch is a real boss, and he is better than the first assistant of the cabinet to fart!

When Jia Baoyu got out of the city gate, he didn't go home, but went to Wang Ziteng's house.

The uncle pushed the nephew, and as a nephew, he had to go over and thank him.

Family affection is important, but maintaining family affection is even more important.
