The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son

After many days of going out, he had just returned to Beijing. His Royal Highness the Prince had to be an east host, so that Fang Jifan would be exposed to the wind and dust.

However, Fang Jifan wanted to go back to meet the princess and the child.

It was hard to be pulled by Zhu Houzhao, but he couldn't get away.

So he had no choice but to sit down in Zhu Guozhao's house.

The banquet has been prepared for a long time, and they are all Fang Jifan's favorite dishes on weekdays.

After pouring a cup of rice wine, Zhu Hou took a cup of rice wine and said with a heart: "This time, I just realized the benefits of the country. Haha, the court lacked a group of people who pointed out the history of the imperial court, which is happy."

It's not that there is less Yu Shi, but the wind has been tight recently, and the Yu Shi have begun to pretend to be deaf and dumb.

Zhu Houzhao talked about his support for the Academy, and he also talked about the new army.

This made Fang Jifan very surprised, he said: "His Royal Highness, is this overdone? Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh dish, and wherever there is a gust of wind like your Highness, it comes."

Zhu Houzhao ’s intention is obvious. What he has to do is to let the new army replace all the previous horses and horses, and may even include the banned army.

This is a huge project.

Zhu Houzhao said: "But if you don't do it today, you won't do it tomorrow, when will you do it? We all know where the ills are, and we all know that this is not the way to go. I am now a mountain without tigers. It ’s the same, but it ’s possible to mix the days, but sooner or later, we will face terrible enemies. At that time, if we want to change it again, everything will be too late. Provincial, why is it still inseparable from the Flemish robot? After all, there is still no decisive power. Do you know the fist? The big fist is the last word. "

Zhu Houzhao said, clenching his fists, looking like he was about to hit someone.

Fang Jifan groaned in his heart, he didn't want to be the object of Zhu Houzhao's on-site teaching, so he nodded busy: "It makes sense, makes sense."

"So you have to help this palace." Zhu Houzhao stared at Fang Jifan, and said seriously: "In this world, 9,990 of the 10,000 people are stupid people, they can't understand these things, the rest Ten of them, and nine of them, but saw the problem, but did not resolve to correct it. A person in this palace was afraid that he would not be able to do such a big thing. Only you can help. "

Fang Jifan bit his face bitterly and couldn't help saying: "But the minister has been busy with too much work recently, just afraid that he can't get away."

"All in all, don't you want to hide." Zhu Houzhao said undoubtedly: "This officer, this palace can do it for you, you see, how about more than seventy appointments?"

With that, Zhu Hou Zhao took a edict from his sleeve with a smug look.

Fang Jifan looked at the edict in surprise, and took it ... After reading it ... was shocked, but he didn't know what to say for a while.

The crown prince is the crown prince.

but……

Fang Jifan said with emotion: "His Royal Highness is indeed loyal, although in this matter, the minister still feels a bit of Meng Lang, overdone, in this world, where there is self-salitation and self-confidence. But ... His Royal Highness Prince can still think of the minister at this time It can be seen that His Royal Highness is still loyal. "

Zhu Houzhao was happy: "Of course you need to be loyal, but there are other considerations."

Fang Jifan said: "What else to consider about your Highness ..."

Zhu Houzhao didn't like to deceive people, he said with a twist: "Well ... Of course, let you be the deputy of this palace. In this case, it may make the father emperor think that this matter is not the idea of ​​this palace alone, but You and I are colluding with each other. If the father and emperor are angry, then this palace will be less beaten. "

Fang Jifan: "..."

Although I felt a bit cold, but when things were about to happen, Fang Jifan couldn't solve it.

Zhu Houzhao's thinking is very simple. He wants to create a military horse that can promote the big, and completely replace the old army.

As a result, this first army became extremely critical.

Although in the past, it was not that Zhenguofu hadn't trained military horses, but after all, it was a nuisance and did not fundamentally subvert the problems in the Ming army.

But this time the meaning is different ... This is to borrow the first army to dig out the roots made by Wei.

Fang Jifan thinks it is a bit scary, after all, this is related to the abolition of many hereditary military positions, this is how many people have to move.

Stealing people's money is like killing a parent. This hatred is great!

Of course, if the military system can be abolished, it would be a matter of virtue.

Fang Jifan likes Jade, which is why his son always has JJ.

Only next ... The question is coming, how to create a killing machine that can be used at any time to the greatest extent, and how is it different from the former health center?

So Fang Jifan has been hiding in the study for several days, thinking constantly.

For half a month, he could hardly get out of the door, but he didn't make it.

Zhu Houzhao is probably the same. He is a serious person. As long as it is accurate, even the nine-headed cow can't pull back. The two write and write their own pictures, constantly perfecting their ideas.

Occasionally, Fang Jifan will call his disciples, especially Wang Shouren, who is best at this.

After half a month, finally, a charter was sent to Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao smiled and said, looking surprised, said: "Many of the ideas inside coincide with this palace, haha ​​... Laofang, really have you."

He pointed to the charter and said happily: "The first rule is to improve the salary system. This march to battle is a job of licking blood with a knife, even if it is a daily exercise, it is ten times harder than ordinary people. However, this person who bleeds and sweats can't even support his mother-in-law and children. This ... is too ridiculous, and should have a stable salary. This is true. "

"As for this second article, this palace is also expecting, haha, this logistics is the top priority, there is not enough support, there is not enough ammunition, there is no one to customize to solve these problems, what warriors rely on. "

"In addition, a solid military medical system, military law regulations, and ..."

"As for the quota ... Yeah, I ’ve done the calculation. According to your calculation, these 5,000 people are afraid that more than 1,500 people will be responsible for chores. If you subtract the military officer, you might be able to fight. Only 3,000 soldiers are missing. "

This made Zhu Houzhao enough to criticize. There are too few combat personnel. The vast majority of them are either responsible for logistics or medical care. If they are civilian, let alone mention, and military officers. So, will it weaken the combat effectiveness?

In fact, the ratio of soldiers has been there since ancient times.

During the period of the Three Kingdoms, the army of the Wei Kingdom accounted for 80% of the soldiers. After that, it was roughly this proportion. If there are 5,000 soldiers, there can be 4,000 soldiers who can actually fight. But in Daming, the proportion of soldiers was even higher, and when it reached 85%, it was more than 4,200.

For this era, the higher the proportion of soldiers, the better. After all ... soldiers are the key to maintaining combat effectiveness.

However, in Fang Jifan's establishment, it runs counter to it, which makes Zhu Houzhao somewhat reluctant.

Zhu Houzhao frowned and said, "If it were added, there would be 1,000 households under the head, and the other auxiliary units in the hundred households. I am afraid that only 50% of this soldier ..."

Fang Jifan said embarrassedly: "Chen also wants to delete some, but after careful calculation, that one seems to be useful, only so much, but His Royal Highness, here ... there is a small problem, you take a look . "

Zhu Houzhao shook his spirit. After all, his opponent Jifan still trusted. Although there were some objections, he was quickly attracted by other issues. After seeing a list sent by Fang Jifan, he immediately ...

He was melancholy and stared at Fang Jifan: "Will the military be crazy?"

…………

The Ministry of Defense Shang Shu Ma Wensheng has been worrying about the construction of a standing army by His Royal Highness these days.

Because ... in this matter, the Ministry of Military Affairs can't get in the way, as if the Tang Dynasty Military Department has become an outsider.

It also seems that because of the rumor that the hereditary military officer may be abolished, many military officers come to ask about it, fearing that their iron rice bowl has been smashed.

There are also some Qiu Ba, who are making trouble because they are not angry. It is nothing more than saying that their ancestors are meritorious. This is why they have hereditary military positions. Now they do n’t give a ration, how can they live?

Ma Wensheng was so stunned by this, but at this time, some officials sent a statute in a hurry.

It was sent by the town government. Ma Wensheng did not dare to neglect it. He took it out and took a look at it. He looked at the new system of the new army. Although he felt fresh, he still felt that the young people were overdone.

But when I saw a list attached to the back ... Ma Wensheng suddenly, his eyes fell off ...

He subconsciously said: "This old book of the old man, don't do it, don't do it, this is still not done by the Ministry of Military Affairs ~ www.readwn.com ~ Come here, prepare a car, prepare a car, go to the cabinet."

Ma Wen was so excited that he arrived at the cabinet. Liu Jian and others did not dare to neglect. After reading the list, he was a little ignorant.

"Is it wrong?"

"It's clear, how could it be wrong." Ma Wensheng said sadly: "Only five thousand people, the monthly salaries are divided equally, one person is five or two silver, how much is this? This is twenty-five thousand two, one By the end of the year, it would be 300,000. In addition, there are armaments, standing medicines, military uniforms for the four seasons, and ... "

"This year, 5,000 people in the area have actually spent nearly one million two-grain silver, princes, please tell me, the Ministry of the Army has only distributed this amount of money throughout the year. In these two years, the court There are a lot more silvers than before, and it seems to be more, but I ca n’t stand this kind of tossing. Xiaguan is not going to do it. The clever woman is still difficult to cook without rice. This is only the first army. I heard that In the future, we need to set up military horses and princes who do n’t know much, and all the emperors have learned that this royal prince and Qi Guogong were sold by the generals, and they could n’t get so much silver. ”

Ma Wensheng's face was red and his ears were red, and he was full of grievances. The latest chapter of the prodigal son of the Ming Dynasty comes from the website:
