Wanli Xinming

Chapter 52 On Soldiers

Chapter 52 On Soldiers
On January 26 of the second year of Wanli, the emperor paraded the Beijing camp at the Nanhaizi School.Due to the sloppy queue of the Beijing camp, the military etiquette was not respected.Under the emperor's wrath, the head of the Beijing camp and those who had inspected the Beijing camp were all beheaded, which shocked the world.

Due to the long period of time, the combat demonstrations of Jizhen and Jingying firearms and car camps that were originally arranged have not been read.After Zhu Yijun made a killing, he drove back to the city.Accompanying the ministers on the way back, they basically wanted to understand why there was no envoy from the foreign vassal to watch this great review together.

After Zhu Yijun returned to the palace, he told Empress Dowager Li about the situation in detail.When Empress Dowager Li heard this, her heart was beating wildly.

Zhu Yijun's actions today have far exceeded the limit of her political ability, and she can't analyze whether it is right or wrong.In the end, he could only say: "Since the emperor and Mr. Zhang had planned for a long time, they did very well. After that, I still have to discuss with Mr. Zhang more." Zhu Yijun agreed.

After this incident, Empress Dowager Li generally did not speak on political issues. Only when Zhu Yijun pressed questions, did he express his views, with a timid tone.Zhu Yijun judged that the emperor's position was stable, or he could break a little bit.

On the second day after returning to the palace, Zhu Yijun sent an order to the Ministry of War and Shuntian Prefecture, and cooperated with Qi Jiguang, who was stationed in Nanhaizi, to select the soldiers of the Beijing camp.Those who are not selected will be repatriated to each guard station with tolls.

Qi Jiguang led Jizhen officers to select, out of [-] soldiers from the Beijing battalion, only [-] met the requirements, and the remaining [-] soldiers were all placed by the Ministry of War and Shuntian Prefecture.

Shi Duchen, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, couldn't beat Qi Jiguang, so he reluctantly said: "I have agreed to supply the Beijing battalion, and cooperate with Qi Jiguang to select soldiers, and I am not afraid of difficulties. However, the soldiers of the Beijing battalion come from various guards in Gyeonggi, Beizhili, etc. There are also Liaodong and other places. The ministers checked the selection book of the military department. Five or six out of ten people whose names do not match are mostly those who do not work. If there is no distinction between the good and the bad, they will all return to the guards. Dangerous." And so on.

Zhang Juzheng received the shrine, but he also had a big head.In recent years, Jingying has drawn troops from various guards, but it is no match for the overt or covert resistance of the guards and Qianhu, plus its own intention to take empty pay - the situation that the selection book and people do not match has accounted for it. Half of them were recruited from around Gyeonggi, for review or pretense.

If these people were sent to the guards according to the records in the selection book, the guards would not pick them up at all, because the soldiers on the selection book were all farming the land for thousands of households and never left.These idlers with only names are gone, who cares about him?Over time, there will be chaos.

If they are not sent to the guards, these more than 3 idlers will be placed on the ground in Gyeonggi, and the results of last year's crackdown will be wiped out immediately.Zhang Juzheng discussed with Lu Tiaoyang for a long time, and came up with two solutions: one is to pay a sum of money for farming cattle seeds, and send them to border towns with their families to reclaim wasteland; the other is to directly distribute them to the Ministry of Industry or the inner government to let them build roads Or work.

Two things must be requested, and Zhang Juzheng petitioned Zhu Yijun for the Holy Trial.After Zhu Yijun reviewed the performance, he approved: "As proposed, if there is still something that cannot be arranged, they will all be resettled in the Huangzhuang and Huangchang in Gyeonggi."

Zhu Yijun said that there was something he couldn't arrange for him to pick up again, but how could he not use the privilege?At the same time, he instructed Jian Sili, Zhang Jing and others to go to Nanhaizi to pick people first.If there are those who can farm the land, choose Huangzhuang to open up wasteland; those who can't make crops, pick the strong ones to work at Zhang Jing's place.The "Daming Neifu Industrial and Commercial Group" run by Zhang Jing began to expand production after the new year.

Zhang Juzheng saw Zhu Yijun take out the land in Huangzhuang to set up the soldiers of the Beijing camp, and sighed to Lv Diaoyang, "The emperor is really a wise master!" I think this year's emperor is okay.

As a result, after Huangzhuang and Zhang Jing finished selecting candidates, less than half of the remaining 3 people were left. This matter was much easier.But Zhang Juzheng was taken aback by the ability of the imperial factory to absorb the population, and his resistance to Zhu Yijun's opening of the imperial factory was lowered.

After Qi Jiguang had been practicing in Nanhaizi for a few days, Zhu Yijun asked him to see him again.At the same time, Zhang Juzheng and Tan Lun, the British company, Zhang Hong of the Sili Supervisor, Zhang Jing of the Royal Horse Supervisor, and others were called to the Wuying Hall to study the reconstruction of the Beijing Camp together.

Zhang Juzheng meant that the Beijing camp should still be placed under the commander-in-chief of the five armies, and the available military positions should be selected from the frontier generals and the foreign guards, and the Ministry of War should be inquired widely. Famous play.Then use this as the backbone, and then build the Beijing Camp.

Tan Lun fully agrees with Zhang Juzheng's opinion, thinking that although the four families of Wuzong Shi and Wai are also rotten in the later period, but now that the Jingying has been completely overthrown and rebuilt, it will not go to the old road of the past.Zhu Yijun was noncommittal after hearing this, and asked the British Duke and Qi Jiguang for their opinions.

After the British public returned home this time.Strictly ordered his two sons: "After a hundred years of my life, no descendants in our family may participate in political or military affairs, but only do etiquette, escort driving, etc. If there is any violation, it is not my descendant of Zhang Rong!" Knowing what happened on the school grounds today, I was almost scared to pee, and nodded straight after listening, and suggested that Zhang Rong write this into the family rules and regulations.

At this moment, listening to the emperor's question, Zhang Rongyi began to express his opinions righteously.The cloud mountain fog cover that said, nagging a little bit of dry goods.It can be summed up in two sentences: "The emperor is wise, and the saint is far-reaching; the first assistant has a high opinion, and he is old and holds the country."

Seeing the emperor looking at him, Qi Jiguang hurriedly said: "Chen Wufu, how can I pre-empt the major affairs? What the emperor said, what the minister should do." Zhang Juzheng listened and nodded subconsciously.

Zhang Hong and Zhang Jing didn't say anything new either. Zhang Jing said that he was sending a middle officer to the guardhouse to inspect troops and horses, but Zhu Yijun interrupted him directly.

Zhu Yijun said, "From the perspective of Jingying, except for Jiubian, all the inland guards in this world are unusable, but?" Zhang Juzheng and Tan Lun looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

Zhu Yijun said: "If I want to revitalize the military equipment, if it is like the Beijing camp, is it feasible?"

Zhang Juzheng shook his head when he heard it.Zhu Yijun asked, "Why not?"

Zhang Juzheng rationalized his thinking, and echoed: "Your Majesty, there are three major disadvantages of current military equipment: First, the guards and localities are intertwined, and they are not unified. After a long time, the military households proliferated, and the guards were all focused on civil affairs, and the military preparations were inevitably slack, this is one of them."

"The mainland has been in peace for a long time, and the laws and regulations have become more and more rapid. There are all kinds of gangsters in the Dusiwei. They are all addicted to the silk tube, and their muscles are slow and their intelligence is dull. The second." It was the first time that the British Duke attended a small meeting hosted by Zhu Yijun, and when he saw Zhang Juzheng say this to the Department of Defense, he was stunned.

Zhang Juzheng continued: "After Renzong, the civil ministers came to the town, counseled the military affairs, and cleaned up the frontier reserve. What followed was the husband of Jiexi, who kept a low voice. After a long time, the antagonism of civil and military has fallen - Qi Jiguang and others, the world When there is nothing to do, they are regarded as cattle and horses, and when there are problems, they are ordered to give up their lives! It is better to treat them lightly, and to be more responsible. This is what the emperor said last time, "It is not easy for military generals in the country". Civil and military status is different, not one dynasty It's understandable, this is the third disadvantage." Qi Jiguang heard this, and the circles of his eyes were a little red again.

Zhang Juzheng finally concluded: "If the emperor wants to invigorate his military equipment, he must take a multi-pronged approach such as military system, selection of generals, guards, localities, and transportation. So Meng Lang?" Zhu Yijun sighed after hearing this.

Zhu Yijun said: "Yeah, Taiku can run mice—" After listening to the emperor's jokes, the ministers quickly made a smile.

Zhu Yijun continued: "If you want to start the revolution, there is no such condition. And there is still a big problem in military affairs. The soldiers don't know the generals, and the generals don't know the soldiers. If you want to fight, you must train the soldiers by the generals." He pointed at Qi Jiguang and said, "It's like Qi's army."

Qi Jiguang hurriedly knelt down and said: "It's all the emperor's army, how dare the minister call this title?" Zhang Juzheng said next to him: "Yuan Jing doesn't have to be like this. If you get close to the emperor in the future, you will know that the emperor has no such taboos." Zhu Yijun listened. nodded.

Zhu Yijun continued: "When I saw the military appearance of Jizhen this time, I had an idea, can I train the army of the world to be like the army of Qi family?" , holding that smile in his stomach, listening with a serious face.

Zhu Yijun said: "I think if every general has Qi Jiguang's ability, they can train in the same way as he does. Wouldn't that be enough?"

When Zhang Juzheng heard it, he all looked at Zhu Yijun, waiting for him to express his thoughts.Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "The capital martial arts school is now full of people with rough academics and arrogance. The Chinese style is martial arts. If you don't succeed, you are still the people. I want to reform it. The commander-in-chief will be the mountain chief!"

 I'm sorry, Mrs. Mo was on a business trip, and after the child finished his homework, Mo also hurriedly wrote it - another four hours late, sorry!What do you think of Zhu Yijun's establishment of a military academy?Can discuss.
