Chapter 617: Long Live My Emperor (Eighth)

Zhu Houzhao's eyes became particularly stern. He may not care about other things, but he always valued this military.

In recent years, in order to enhance the combat power of his personal army, he has actually taken out a lot of treasury to subsidize the guards. Now, seeing that Yanshan Guard, which was still excellent last year, had only gotten mediocre, he couldn't help but get angry.

He looked along the way and found that the four guards in the upper four exams were excellent, so his face was much more relaxed. The four guards and the Warriors camp were both admirals of the Imperial Horse Supervisor. Zhang Yong knew that Zhu Houzhao liked this, so he naturally regarded his preferences. In order to train the inner guard, he was almost worried.

Seeing this, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help laughing again and said, "It's great to go to the four guards, it's great. Thank you for your hard work for your partner Zhang."

After receiving twice in a row, Zhang Yong was very happy.

Zhu Houzhao continued to watch. In fact, he was looking forward to something in his heart. He wanted to see how the performance of Zhenguo New Army was. He turned to the end and finally found the performance of Zhenguo New Army. But... his face suddenly fell down.

It's the last.

The last meaning is that there is no worst, only worse. This new army is equivalent to laying the bottom among the guards.

Zhu Houzhao seemed a little unbelievable, her face suddenly turned blue and white. After looking at it for a long time, she frowned and said, "Why is the evaluation of the new army like this? Although the new army is a start-up, it is not so unbearable."

He looked up at Xie Qian.

Xie Qian was helpless. He hoped that Ye Chunqiu could fight for a breath, but in fact, the new army was really bad. He couldn't tell what had been done in the training, and it was very inappropriate.

Xie Qian had no choice but to say: "This is the result of the collaborative discussion between the Ministry of War, the Imperial Horse Supervisor, the Censorate, and the Ministry of Personnel."

This means that this is the consensus of everyone. In fact, Xie Qian originally wanted to use the word mediocrity to evaluate the performance, but the attitude of the Imperial Horse Supervision and the Ministry of Personnel was very firm. Xie Qian knew that if the people in the palace were involved, it would be difficult to convince the public if they were mediocre.

Besides, he has always been fair in his work. Although he wants to let go, he is still a little embarrassed.

When Zhu Houzhao heard him say this, his face became even worse. He knew who Master Xie was. Even he said this, there would be no doubt about this matter.

But... Is the new army really such a bad situation?

Zhu Houzhao was still a little suspicious. The most important thing was that this had a deep blow. He always hoped that he was the Duke of Zhenguo, the general officer, and hoped that Ye Chunqiu, the consultant of Zhenguo Mansion, would train him a private army, and then sweep the desert and put down the Japanese pirates.

This is his long-cherished wish. The Tumu Fort's change actually changed the ambitions of too many people. Wang Shouren was like this. He took this as a shame, and Zhu Houzhao was like this. He could not accept that his ancestors were insulted by these Hu people. Therefore, he learned from people since he was a child and asked about military affairs. When he became the emperor, he became more and more out of control.

But... the new army gave him a big blow, so that he was not furious at this time, or even blamed Ye Chunqiu, and just said lightly: "Oh, is it? According to the opinions of all the ministers, what is the problem with the new army?"

Ye Chunqiu sat aside, about to stand up. Xie Qian and the others might not understand his military training method that transcends the times, but Ye Chunqiu felt that the little emperor might be able to understand it.

But before he could speak, Zhang Yong took the lead and said, "Your Majesty, I have some simple opinions and don't know whether to say it or not."

Zhu Houzhao looked at Zhang Yong. This year, the Warriors Camp and the Four Guards were excellent. It can be seen that Zhang Yong was indeed a hardworking and great contribution. Zhu Houzhao said, "Let's talk about it for a partner Zhang."

Zhang Yong was overjoyed. He knew that his weight had increased a little in His Majesty's mind, and he was naturally proud. He talked freely: "There are three problems with the new army. First, the recruitment of scholars, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce are suspected of attracting popularity. Your Majesty, the scholars, farmers, industry and commerce in the world are divided into three classes. Whether it is a military household, a craftsman or a scholar, they all perform their duties and use troops to fight. What should the slaves say that scholars cannot succeed. How can scholars use troops and how can they fight? Isn't this the truth that the so-called scholars use nothing?

Zhang Yong's words were filled with guns and sticks, which was said to be the new army that should not recruit scholars, but that scholars would not use military force. Naturally, Ye Chunqiu and Wang Shouren were both scholars. Isn't it just that he secretly matched the thoughts he wanted to express?

Ye Chunqiu squinted his eyes and looked at Zhang Yong, and couldn't help but laugh. The truly strong army has always been composed of good families. What is good families? It is a family with a fairly decent family. Such people often fight bravely. Did the Ming Dynasty rely on your so-called military households? History has long proved that these military households are extremely decayed and cannot be used at all.

At this time, Zhang Yong said again: "But Ye Xiu was a bit arrogant and wanted to recruit scholars. In fact, I know what Ye Xiu thought. He is also a scholar. But training troops is not a joke. Since he knows that Your Majesty is particularly concerned about military affairs, how can he be so willful?"

Zhu Houzhao narrowed her thick eyebrows and her face became even heavier, but she continued to remain silent.

Zhang Yong continued to say: "The second thing is that Ye Xiu's method seems to have not understood the methods of training troops. Throughout history, I have experienced many improvements in the practice methods in the world. However, Ye Xiu's method does not know how to learn from the experience of his predecessors, but he is doing it recklessly. Everything is taken for granted. This method of training troops is by no means a joke, and it is not a matter of course."

Zhang Yong paused and continued, "As for these third things, I heard that Ye Xiu's training was divided into three periods, one was morning exercise, followed by day exercise, and in addition, it was night classes..."

Speaking of this, Zhang Yong couldn't help laughing, as if he thought it was a joke: "I won't talk about morning exercises and exercises, but the results are here, but this evening class is a joke. Ye Xiu actually took turns to teach the new teacher knowledge like in school. Isn't this... not putting the cart before the horse? Since this new army is a army, then those who join the army, I will say rudely, they will be going to fight to kill the enemy in the future. What's the use of imparting knowledge? The funniest thing is that Wang Shouren taught them the Four Books and Five Classics, while Ye Xiu taught them various methods of arithmetic, as well as many so-called wind, geography and humanities knowledge. Of course I know that Ye Xiu is well-versed in history, but what's the use of the officers and soldiers of the new army to learn?"

At first, Ye Chunqiu just thought that Zhang Yong wanted to take the opportunity to take the blame, but at this moment, his heart was shocked.

He suddenly discovered something serious...
