Chapter 722: The Imperial Army is busy, stabbed and smashed the door (1)(1/2)

Your Highness, you can’t afford to offend me, Lao Liu.

Liu Jin looked bitter, what else could Zhu Houzhao say?!

Fortunately, at this time, Gegentana's crisp voice came: "The lamb leg is baked!"

"Ao~! I want to eat it!!"

When the naughty child heard that there was something to eat, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Mr. Zhang glared at him helplessly, and then scared the naughty child.

Take the lamb leg from Gergentana's hand and cut off the most fat piece on a plate for the naughty child.

Then he said: "I am so old, be more steady! Don't be always impatient."

As he said that, he sprinkled some spices for him.

Take out the iced juice from the ice kettle and pour it on him: "I'm not old yet, so drink some frost ice first. Then drink wine later."

The naughty child nodded obediently, then sat on the side of the table with a well-behaved look and started gnawing on the mutton.

This made the little eunuchs next to him stunned again. It was the first time in these days that they had seen the prince so well-behaved!

Although the prince is extremely smart on weekdays, he always avoids being able to escape.

Only when he meets some old ministers, he will show his royal style.

But most of the time, the prince didn’t get too good at breaking out. Now he is so well-behaved?!

Well... don't ask too much, don't think too much, these have nothing to do with us.

Just serve the prince well, and they don’t need to worry about anything else.

After eating the legs of lamb, he knocked away the yawning naughty child. Mr. Zhang finally had a few days off.

Emperor Hongzhi and Liu Jian now have to arrange rewards on the one hand, and on the other hand, they have to think about Mr. Zhang’s words.

Similarly, Tang Bohu, Xu Jing and others could not eat at home except for coming to pay their respects sooner or later.

The court is busy every day, and there are too many things in each department that have accumulated over the past year.

Seeing that the autumn examination is about to begin again, everyone has to prepare to deal with the autumn examination.

At the same time, each department must also conduct a review of the promotion, and the external adjustments should be made.

Then each department will recruit a group of new officials to come in and help everyone.

After Mr. Zhang won this battle, all the troops had to move.

The first thing is to have officials settled in Annan and go to Dongshu, and this time you must be careful.

In the past, those places were not valuable because the government did not point to their output, but now it is different.

First of all, there are only so many seized. If the land that is familiar to a year is damaged...

That's definitely the head of the city, so the cabinet has to consider who to choose.

The military headquarters is even more troublesome, and it is impossible to reward merit and do things.

We also have to place the bravery of western Guizhou, Qianzhou and southern Yunnan. Many good players have been born among these bravery.

According to the division of merits, the group that made meritorious people will go to the military school in the capital to study.

After graduation, they will be divided into Bashu to be responsible for guarding and replacing Bashu's own garrison.

The group who had slightly insufficient meritorious achievements were approved to join the National Defense Forces and would also come to Beijing for training.

The remaining ones who have made insufficient contributions have obtained a brand of "strong courage".

The family is exempt from land rent for three years, and the size of the merits is five stones to three dou, and the silver ranges from three taels to two cents.

Of course, if you join the official National Defense Forces, it will be awesome.

The military headquarters is now discussing how to reduce taxes and even send fields and farm tools to the National Defense Forces.

When Emperor Hongzhi realized the benefits of controlling the army, and these army could indeed fight.

To expand the royal influence in the army, this became his must-have.

For example, the military headquarters is now discussing the introduction of the military merit system in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and after a slight modification, it will be used for the Ming Dynasty.

What many people don’t know is that Mr. Zhang gave Emperor Hongzhi more than the memorial that was read out in public.

The real core thing is in the secret song.

"The "Lüshi Chunqiu·Everything" says, 'When flowing water does not rot, the door hinge does not rot, it moves'. This should also be the long-term strategy for my Ming Dynasty."

"In the prosperous Tang Dynasty, all the families were in danger, and the governors held too high power and even the country was destroyed! This should be a prudent for our great wisdom."

"Song taught the imperial examination to recruit all the people of the world, but because of his unrighteous position, he suppressed the military and eventually lost his country..."

Mr. Zhang’s secret memorial said it very clearly. The emergence of the mobility of civil servants ensures that the dynasty has difficulty with long-term powerful ministers.

But this is still far from enough. We must consider the sentence "Water does not rot, and the door hinge does not rot".

If the Ming Dynasty wants to ensure its own strength, it must ensure upward liquidity.

Therefore, the mobility of the army also needs to be increased.

What was the situation when the poor people were allowed to join the army in the early Tang Dynasty and earn their merits for their origins?!

"Cefu Yuangui" said that at that time, "all of them were brave enough to go to the enemy and fought for recruitment. There were countless people who valued their power, and they might be led by a sword to stab the trunk to show their courage."

Damn! In order to show his courage, he did not hesitate to stab his thighs with his sword to join the army.

Why is this happening?! Because at the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, poor people entered the ranks of high-ranking officials through military merits, and there were many people from the privileged class.

The most famous one is Xue Rengui.

Therefore, in order to obtain the right to join the army, they did not hesitate to show their courage in various ways.

What Mr. Zhang hopes is to continue this situation.

"The army was powerful for many years in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, pacifying Liaodong, and defeating Tiel, the Western Regions, and governing the Western Regions for nearly a hundred years! How strong the military front is."

The secret memorial said that Emperor Hongzhi was full of passion. Which emperor didn’t want to have a good harvest of both civil and military achievements?!

Who doesn’t want to leave a name forever after becoming emperor?!

Even the foolish monarchs have the dream of leaving their names in history.

But this thing cannot be done by doing it. Emperor Hongzhi felt that he was getting closer step by step.

Increase investment in the Defense Forces and increase control and support for the Defense Forces!

That's what he wants to do now.

"Why did the rebellion of the military governors arise in the late Han and late Tang dynasties? It was a mistake that the military power fell and the emperor's grace was not worthy of it."

"Our Ming Dynasty now has the officers' academy, military academy, and lieutenant generals all come from the emperor's sect!"

"The moon silver, the gifts given by the family, are all from the emperor! In this way, why do you have any rebellion?!"

"Even if there is someone who is in a rebellious mind, who is willing to follow the thief?"

Emperor Hongzhi read the memorial here and was almost astonished as he could.

Isn't this the reason?!

All the senior officials and assistants in the army came from my own, so what if there were a few people who were ill-behaved?!

How many people can they win over?!

What's more, Mr. Zhang has made plans, and the first thing is to transfer the school.

It is evaluated every year and must be adjusted for three years.

Soldiers who have served for five years without promotion will retire and return home.

Moreover, all the soldiers served in different places, which ensures that they will not be disturbed by the village.

In addition, even if they have a rebellious intention, those who follow the thief will consider whether their family will be implicated...

These things directly dragged the entire state and the military headquarters and Emperor Hongzhi.

It is obviously not possible to deal with it in a short while, so no one is here to disturb Mr. Zhang now.

But no one comes to disturb you, it doesn’t mean it’s really calm.

"Bang~!"

In front of the thatched cottage pavilion, the shark wooden guqi, which was claimed to be "not entering by knife and axe", made a "crack" cry.

Miaoan, Ashikari and the others were all frightened. They had never seen Mr. Zhang get so angry.

This clamwood short table was specially made by Milu, who found someone to make it. It was said that several chisels broke during the making.

Mr. Zhang also likes this shorter table quite a bit.

But now Mr. Zhang slapped him in the face and made a crack.

"Who is betting on this!!"

Then I saw Mr. Zhang's thatched cottage pavilion, Tang Bohu, Xu Jing and others knelt all over the ground.
To be continued...
