Zhu Houzhao put his hands behind his back, looking excited, and walked around in this warm pavilion.

He didn't take what Ye Chunqiu said to him in the past particularly, but now Zhu Houzhao has deeply understood that if this new army wants to expand, it must have money.

Earn a lot of money...

Zhu Houzhao's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was having some idea in his heart. He almost wanted to take out his own treasury, but after thinking about it carefully, his own treasury seemed to not support many soldiers.

At this time, Ye Chunqiu suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I took a prison official named Ma in the Warriors' Left Camp. He claimed that today's affairs were related to the Imperial Horse Supervision."

Ye Chunqiu had to report this matter. Zhang Yong cheated him so badly that he had to fight back.

After hearing this, Zhu Houzhao showed anger on her face and said angrily: "Is that so? This Zhang Yong is really outrageous. So what should Ye Aiqing do?"

Ye Chunqiu saw Zhu Houzhao having thoughts, but he was not polite at all: "Let the Xichang personally interrogate and follow the clues..."

It is best to ask Xichang to come and ask about it. The admiral and eunuch of Xichang is Gu Dayong. Gu Dayong has always wanted to use him, but how could Ye Chunqiu be willing to be used by him? Since that is the case, let Gu Dayong be used to examine the horse supervisor, so that Gu Dayong cannot avoid it.

Think about it, this is something that Your Majesty wants to ask about himself. Do you Gu Dayong dare to do it perfunctorily? But once you have to find out the truth, you will inevitably involve Ma Yong, and Ma Yong will definitely fight back. This means that Gu Dayong, who originally wanted to use him to defeat Liu Jin or Zhang Yong, was used by him and stood on the table and fought with Zhang Yong.

Zhu Houzhao naturally didn't know Ye Chunqiu's thoughts, nodded and said, "It's appropriate to let the West Factory conduct a thorough investigation. The supervisor was a man in the palace after all, so it was not good to hand it over to the Jinyiwei. It's so good. I'll use it for the life of the valley."

Zhu Houzhao ordered the eunuch to call for someone, then looked at Ye Chunqiu excitedly and said, "What are the next plans for the new army? Ye Aiqing, sit down, I will have a long talk with you."

If we say that before, the Zhenguo Mansion and the New Army were just a dream for Zhu Houzhao, but now, when this dream is truly within reach, Zhu Houzhao is no longer just as interested as it is, and he hopes to participate.

"When will the number of people be expanded? One hundred people are too few after all."

Ye Chunqiu thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, the most urgent task at the moment is not to expand the army and horses, but to equipment. Today, the soldiers used long sticks to break the Warriors' camp. Because the new army does not belong to the guards for the time being, and therefore there are no armor or military uniforms. Now, while there are still few people, we should first tailor a batch of weapons based on their strength."

Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up and he nodded, "I give them clothes."

Ye Chunqiu shook his head instead and said, "I mean to be tailor-made, and it also needs to be based on their characteristics. Although Your Majesty's reward is their glory, since you want to build elite soldiers, you still need to be based on their own situation."

Zhu Houzhao was a little confused and looked at Ye Chunqiu with a suspicious look on her face and said, "I don't understand it now. Isn't it all the same?"

He blinked and looked at Ye Chunqiu with great excitement, hoping that Ye Chunqiu could help him solve his doubts.

Ye Chunqiu did not hide his own privately and said, "On ordinary military households, there is no armor in combat. Your Majesty, this is certainly because it is costly money and food; on the other hand, it is because most military households are weak. Not to mention military households, even if they are personal soldiers, it is very inconvenient to let them wear armor. But since Your Majesty is familiar with military affairs, he should know that armor was more common in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Why is this?"

Zhu Houzhao was stunned for a moment: "Maybe...well...I won't pretend to understand. You say, say it quickly."

Zhu Houzhao was quite well-behaved at this time. Ye Chunqiu was very satisfied. This was the real Hanlin attendant. He could answer the emperor's doubts at any time: "That's because many soldiers in the Tang Dynasty were professional soldiers. Most of them were from low-class backgrounds and strong bodies, and could afford armor. This was actually similar to the Japanese samurai. Most of the Japanese samurai were nobles. Therefore, they were strong and adapted to high-intensity training. Even if they were carrying heavy armor wrapped around their bodies, there would not be too much inconvenience. However, most of the soldiers in the Ming Dynasty were the poorest people. Many people could not even have enough food, let alone practice. How could they bear armor?"

Ye Chunqiu immediately said: "But the new army is different. The new army gives the best conditions and conducts the most hard training every day. Although it has only been two months and has gradually become stronger, it will not take long. Their strength will only increase more... I have a physical refining technique, which is of great benefit to the improvement of physical fitness. They practice hard, not to mention that everyone is as strong as a cow, but they are enough to become the most powerful elite. Since this is the case, what does it matter if the armor weighs more than ten pounds of armor covered with it?"

After pausing, Ye Chunqiu continued: "This is what I said varies from person to person. Since the new army is strong, they can carry heavy armor. Then...their equipment must be equipped with heavy armor. In this way... when they go to the battlefield in the future, there will be an additional layer of protection. Ordinary swords will not hurt their vitals."

Zhu Houzhao suddenly realized that it was like this. He suddenly realized that there was so much knowledge in this training, and he did not consider such a problem at the beginning.

Ye Chunqiu said again: "Therefore, I must tailor a set of equipment for them so that they can exert their maximum combat power. Training is like building a house. First, we must lay the foundation and set the framework, what military rules are, how to practice, how to fight, what equipment is needed, and other things need to be solved one by one. At that time, when the Zhenguo Mansion has money and continues to expand the scale, it will be much easier."

Zhu Houzhao nodded repeatedly when she heard this, and said repeatedly: "No, not bad, what Ye Aiqing said has given me a lot of inspiration. Oh, you also have to design swords and armor. Actually, I am very good at this. If you are in the palace, I will think about it with you?"

Ye Chunqiu smiled, this guy... just don't cause trouble for himself, but... even though he thought so, Ye Chunqiu found that he was willing to get along with him, because to a certain extent, as a time traveler, Ye Chunqiu was quite lonely. In this old-fashioned era, most people did not agree with Ye Chunqiu's thoughts and behaviors, but Zhu Houzhao was able to inspire thoughts, and Ye Chunqiu felt very relaxed with him.

"I obey the order."
