I'm a big dick

Chapter 156 Banquet at the Hall of Martial Heroes

Now, the Li family has been blown up, and the Liaoxi warlords have not yet formed due to the overhaul of the Guan Ning Jin line of defense.

The gentry in Liaodong either perished or descended to Houjin, or lost their land and moved to other places, turning into paper tigers. This was the time when Xiong Tingbi could make a big splash.

In the new military system, the prohibition of raising private soldiers and prohibiting family members from joining the army prevented the emergence of warlords to the greatest extent.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao did not have much to worry about Fang Zu Dashou returning to Liaodong and Kong Youde returning to Dongjiang.

Zhang Yu'er was busy putting on and tying the robe for the emperor, and finally took two steps back, looked it over carefully, and smiled with satisfaction.

Zhu Youxiao also returned Hexi's smile, and asked casually: "Why is Xiaobai always sleeping these two days, it seems to be different from before!"

Zhang Yu'er also found it strange, and glanced at the white lady lying lazily in the den, but couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Forget it." Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said, "It's probably because it's warm and lazy!" After finishing speaking, he walked over to take a closer look at Xiaobai.

Seeing him approaching, Xiaobai immediately became vigilant, his calves stood upright, and his different pupils stared at Zhu Youxiao, as if he was ready to escape from the clutches of the clutches at any time.

Seeing Xiaobai's shining eyes, Zhu Youxiao knew that it was all right, but he was very displeased with his defensive appearance.

Zhang Yuer hurried over, picked up Lady Bai, and smiled at the emperor: "Miss Bai is fine, the emperor can go to the Hall of Martial Arts without worry!"

Zhu Youxiao rolled his eyes, turned around and left the hall.

In the side hall of the Hall of Martial Arts, all the generals had gathered together, discussing and arguing around the big sand table in the hall.

The sand table has been expanded a lot, and the important towns on the nine borders and the grasslands outside the Great Wall have been marked in as much detail as possible.

Moreover, the internal officials have already told them that with the permission of the Holy Majesty, they can make noise and read the information in the hall without being too rigid.

It was only after seeing such an intuitive big sand table that the generals could better understand how serious Daming's side problems are.

Not to mention that the tribes of Mongolia are very quiet, it is a temporary peace bought with money and materials, that is, rewards from the city, and when the times are bad, tribes will still come to plunder.

Since the end of Wanli, the imperial court has issued reward silver to the Mongolian tribes outside the Xuanfu every year. At the beginning, it was only a few thousand taels.

When the Jiannu rebellion started the war, the Mongolian tribes became the targets of both sides.The reward silver demanded by various Mongolian tribes from the Ming Dynasty increased sharply, and now it has reached more than [-] taels.

These materials are on the bookshelf next to the sand table, as well as the food and salaries required by the border towns every year, as well as the cost of transporting these food and salaries by the imperial court.

What is this, a disgrace to a real soldier!

Eating the food brought in by the country from all over the country, and taking the military salary issued by the imperial court, but they can't resist insults, and they have to spend money to buy peace.What is the face of the court?What is the significance of raising soldiers in the country?

In addition to training soldiers, the first batch of martial arts officers, according to the arrangement of the Ministry of War and Zhu Youxiao's request, often discussed and studied together, and they were familiar with each other.

Therefore, looking at the signs of the situation of the enemy and ourselves on the sand table, reading these internal materials, debates and even quarrels are inevitable.

"The root knot is building slaves. If it weren't for the corruption in Liaodong, how would the Western captives dare to make an inch?"

"If the soldiers in the border town are strong and the horses are strong, how would the Xilu dare to make a mistake?"

"Nonsense! If it weren't for the fear that Xilu would fall to Jiannu, how could he agree to his excessive demands?"

"Hey, as soldiers, we couldn't suppress the rebellion, and couldn't recover the lost land. I'm really ashamed."

"When you eat food and get paid, you feel at ease, but when you fight for the country, you suffer repeated defeats. What a disgrace, it's really embarrassing."

Zhang Pan raised his head and made eye contact with Cao Wenzhao, a guerrilla in Liaodong Town.

The two people's remarks were surprisingly consistent, and they couldn't help but look at each other with wry smiles, giving birth to the meaning of heroes cherishing each other.

"After Dongjiang town recruits and trains, attacking Jiannu from the sea will make them exhausted." Kong Youde pointed on the sand table, "Look, how can Jiannu be able to defend against such a vast coastline?"

Mao Chenglu thought so deeply, and pointed his finger out from Phi Island, heading north along the Yalu River, and said happily: "If you go up the river and copy the rear of Jiannu, it will also make it hard to defend."

Zhang Pan smiled and nodded, but his eyes were on southern Liaoning, Lushun, Jinzhou, Nanguan...that was a strategic idea he had long ago.

"Master Sun, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, is here." The voice of an internal official came from outside the hall, and all the generals in the hall hurriedly put their clothes down and bowed to greet him.

Sun Chengzong stepped into the hall, although he was old, he was in good spirits.

"The last general pays homage to Master Sun." All the generals bowed and greeted the Shangguan.

"Exemption." Sun Chengzong raised his hand with a smile, glanced at him, and nodded with satisfaction.

Sitting down on the seat in the middle, Sun Chengzong stretched out his hand to signal the generals to sit down, stroked his bushy beard and smiled.

After all the generals were seated, Sun Chengzong coughed lightly and said, "You must have read the situation on the sand table, as well as the documents and materials, right?"

Hearing the response from the generals, Sun Chengzong's face became solemn, and he said slowly: "I think you didn't have much sense of urgency before, but after you understand it, you will know that the state affairs are in danger and the court is in trouble."

"The son of heaven is holy, he pays equal attention to civil and military affairs, and he has painstakingly planned to ensure that the army is strong and profitable, and there is no shortage of food and wages. You are the elites in the army. Your majesty is looking forward to prosperity. I hope that you will shake up the army and decline. The soldiers will use their lives and the soldiers and civilians will be at ease. pregnancy……"

"After you all return to your town, you should strictly train your soldiers according to the new law. After a few months, there should be thousands of elite soldiers in each town; after a year, they will all be brave warriors..."

"In the battle against the Eastern Captives, one of the most important is to have the courage; if you have the courage, you dare to fight, but if you don't have the courage, the armor and the army are also a display..."

"For more than ten years, Kong Chi was a slave, and Liaodong was completely lost. The Holy One was worried, and the soldiers and people were terrified. However, this time of crisis is just an opportunity for you to train the army, send troops generously, and make great achievements."

Sun Chengzong stood up, glanced aggressively at the generals, and cupped his hands, "Everyone, can you praise Yue Fei and Han Shizhong's aspirations, build a campaign of suppression and mopping up, and make a name for your wife and son, and your name in history?"

"The last general should serve the country loyally."

"The final general will do his best to defend the dangerous frontier and die on the battlefield."

"The last general will not hesitate to die, and be proud of the horse leather shroud."

…………

All the generals stood up and bowed. They were all impassioned. Although their words were not fancy, they were full of martial spirit.

Sun Chengzong smiled, nodded again and again, and said: "Everyone is not afraid of life and death, and generously sent out the teacher, the Holy One is not stingy with the prince's reward?"

As he spoke, he called the generals to gather around the sand table, pointing out the situation, and discussing the combined attack.

When Zhu Youxiao came to the Hall of Martial Arts, he took his seat directly in the main hall, and the public will see him.

"Everyone is free from courtesy!" After seeing Shi Li, Zhu Youxiao nodded with a smile, and stretched out his hand to signal the generals to take their seats.
