Before the severity of the title of the secretary of the military department was clarified, the cabinet received a letter.

"Chen Bing's Affairs", this is a very simple and simple beginning.

However, the content has a full enlightening effect on the severity and makes him feel quite amazing.

Every word of this letter is said to the point.

Who wrote this? It's very insightful.

A look of approval appeared on his grim face, and he flipped to the cover and saw the signature.

The left squire of the military department, Yu Qian!

He immediately ordered someone to call Yu Qian to the cabinet and had a detailed discussion with him.

Yu Qian has not dealt with Yan Yan a few times, but in front of this big man, he is also free, neither humble nor arrogant, and he clearly expresses his opinions.

"Chen Guogong, I think that although this battle of Huailai is a great victory, all kinds of omissions in our army's military affairs have been exposed."

"Since the beginning of Warat's vassal, there have been few wars at the border passes, which has led to the neglect of the soldiers' defense, and until this battle, the lives of the people are finally ruined."

"The border army should drill from time to time, and my suggestion is to hold a drill every six months, demarcate the area, let the soldiers of several provinces participate in the drill together, and the winner should be rewarded heavily, and the last one will be heavily punished, so as to motivate the border army to strengthen its armament."

"And in this big battle, among the three major battalions, the divine machine soldiers faced the enemy's cavalry and disorganized their positions, and the five military battalions were negligent in the battle formation, and only three thousand battalions had strong combat strength, which was enough to deal with the enemy."

"This fully proves the importance of actual combat, and you must know that the 3,000 battalions are all soldiers with combat experience from the bondage."

"This is also the disadvantage of stationing troops in Beijing for a long time. Although there are hundreds of thousands of troops, it seems to be very powerful, but they have never had the experience of war, and when they really fight, they are not as good as tens of thousands of elites. ”

"I even saw the old white-headed and the thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy in it, how could this fight? It's obvious that the people below did it to fool the military department, but it will bring disaster in battle. ”

"I suggest that the three battalions be reorganized, and the strong ones among them should be selected to stay, and the old and weak ones should be eliminated."

"Singled out those who ate empty salaries and embezzled military salaries and severely punished them to deter the generals."

"At the same time, the three battalions went to the border passes or places where there was fighting in the south in batches to experience training, participate in the war against the enemy, and accumulate combat experience."

"Among the border army, people who are good at fighting are selected every year to be organized into three battalions to defend the Beijing Division."

"The Beijing division is the heart of the Ming Dynasty, and there must be no mistakes, and those who defend the Beijing division must be the most elite troops of the Ming Dynasty."

……

Yu Qian quickly turned his brain, listed his opinions in his mind, and talked eloquently.

Huailai battle, he deeply felt the powerlessness of the Ming Dynasty, if it wasn't for the sudden wind that saved the Ming Dynasty, I really don't know what the outcome would be.

He spent a lot of time studying how he could have avoided all of this.

Grim raised an eyebrow in some surprise.

Yu Qian made a summary of the mistakes of Da Ming in this battle, and listed them one by one in front of the grim, which made him refreshed, and in many places, even he didn't expect it.

As for the performances of the border army, the reward of gold and silver officials can stimulate the enthusiasm of the army and enhance their combat effectiveness.

It's a good idea.

So he found Li Xian and told him about it, and after Li Xian learned about it, he also praised Yu Qian.

He is not ignorant of soldiers, and he has served as the right attendant of the military department in the original history, so he naturally sees the ability of humility.

"Shoufu, with this person's talent, the position of the left squire of the military department, but he is a talent."

Said sternly, the meaning between the words made Li Xian can't help but raise his eyebrows.

The left squire of the military department, this is the first person under the military department, this is all condescending, then naturally there is only the military department.

After all, it is impossible for him to deal with various affairs of the Ming Dynasty while also being in charge of the military department, but in the allocation of cabinet affairs, he will be more inclined to be in charge of military affairs.

The secretary of the military department and the five left governors of the five military governors are the real military managers, and the appointment and dismissal of military attachés, the distribution of ordnance, etc., are all managed by the military department.

This is a very important position, and Kuang Yu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, happened to be emaciated because of the First World War of Huailai, and he just proposed to tell the old man.

Among so many competitors, give him the position of Shangshu?

He thought back on this man's deeds and nodded involuntarily.

Yu Qian is an honest official, noble character and extremely talented, and has made many political achievements in Jiangxi, Henan and Shanxi governors, and was once valued by Emperor Xuande.

It's just that there were too many bigwigs in that era, Yan Keng, San Yang, and Zhang Fu...... Covering his light tightly, now, at last, it was his turn to show his head.

He is indeed talented, and although the position of a squire is not low, it still limits his talent.

"Since he is a person who is Chen Guogong's favor, he will definitely not be an incompetent person, and the position of Shangshu is also suitable." He said slowly.

Although due to the separation of powers and checks and balances, the cabinet is not allowed to participate in the court push, but it is impossible for the cabinet to say that there is no influence on the court push, especially the official department Shangshu Wang Zhi, who is still severely pulled up by his father.

And although Yu Qian is very capable, the affairs of the court are not something that you can take the position if you have the ability. This is a long one, once Kuang Yu leaves, I don't know how many eyes will be eyeing him.

But now that the two have reached a consensus, this matter has become more than half.

Soon, Kuang Yu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, formally submitted a request to Zhishi, and then Wang Zhi, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, led the court push.

Not surprisingly, Yu Qian was pushed out by the court and submitted to the emperor as a candidate, and the emperor naturally would not reject the recommendation of the ministers.

As a result, Yu Qian, the left attendant of the Ministry of War, officially took up the post of Secretary of the Ministry of War.

He can finally build the military system of the Ming Dynasty according to his own ideas.

After taking office, Yu Qian formally wrote a letter requesting the reform of the Ming Dynasty's military affairs, and with the support of two members of the cabinet, his proposal was successfully passed.

In addition, there are many suggestions made by the grim.

For example, you can send a small force of cavalry to harass Warat, enhance the actual combat experience of the soldiers, and by the way, give them a heavy hammer when their vitality is seriously damaged.

For example, the army's salaries are given priority, even earlier than those given to officials. In a word, it is better to owe the officials than to the soldiers.

"Just do what you say!"

Zhu Qizhen slapped the board directly.

In this way, in the past few years, Yu Qian and Yan Yan worked together, taking advantage of the opportunity of the internal turmoil in Warat, they reorganized the defense and revitalized the three major battalions.

All of a sudden, the murderous spirit within the Great Wall was fierce, and hundreds of thousands of armored men stood on the frontier.

Aliens, all frightened.
