Chapter 101 The future backbone of the Ming Dynasty's army
"This reminds me, not bad." Zhu Houzhao thought about it, and it was indeed true.
"Then add to the imperial edict that the businessmen who are interviewed want to be officials, and they and their families cannot do business.
The imperial court is willing to pay to buy their businesses and let them Focus on being an official and doing business for the imperial court." Zhu Houzhao immediately came up with another idea.
"Your Majesty, how can a businessman give up his property?" Liu Jiandao.
"Exactly. Let's see if the businessmen who want to be officials are determined and confident enough?" Zhu Houzhao said with a smile, feeling that he thought well.
But who among those big businessmen is not involved in many things?
They can and dare to sell their business to the court.
Is someone other than a big businessman qualified and capable to serve as a senior executive in the Ministry of Commerce?
Liu Jian and others thought secretly.
The establishment of a business department will never be simple and smooth.
They can't resist His Majesty, so just watch first.
If the Ministry of Commerce does not have enough capable people, it will not be established, and there is nothing your Majesty can do.
Decided to deal with the Ministry of Commerce, Zhu Houzhao asked the ministers to get busy.
He also understood that it was relatively simple for Jin to take action.
But it’s much harder to wrap up the ending.
Wang Shouren stayed and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the establishment of the Ministry of Commerce has pros and cons. The most important thing is to establish a good supervision mechanism and have a balance.
Otherwise, Businessmen are officials, and they will be more greedy and greedy. Once one family becomes dominant, the consequences are unpredictable. "
"Well, Lao Wang, write down what you think of, and I will take a good look at it." He said quickly.
He felt that what Lao Wang wanted to do would definitely be more comprehensive.
As for the separation of military and political affairs, that's fine.
It can be what he wants then.
"Yes." Wang Shouren responded, and then said: "Your Majesty, have you selected the five hundred people? I will take them to the Jin Dynasty tomorrow."
This time, we will attack the Jin Dynasty. , although it is only the first step of the plan.
But the military cabinet, which was about to reorganize the national army, has decided not to start from the Beijing camp, but from the Jin area.
There are guard posts and frontier troops in Jin area, and with this comprehensive cleaning, it is just right.
When others went to rectify, Zhu Houzhao and Wang Shouren were not at ease. After all, it was not just the army, but also tens of thousands of Jianghu people.
Only Wang Shouren goes there in person to do it well.
In addition, Zhu Houzhao also needs Wang Shouren to see all the situations in Jin.
The land of Jin that will be swept away will be the vanguard of Ming Dynasty governance.
"Get ready. I will take you there early tomorrow morning." Zhu Houzhao nodded.
“Yes.”
····
The other side.
"Looking at the situation of this action, I am afraid that His Majesty has already issued the order and prepared for a long time before he was able to sweep away all these officials, martial arts forces and bandits in one fell swoop." Cabinet, Li Dongyang He said in a determined tone.
"Well, this time the righteous forces contributed so much, it seems they made some kind of deal." Xie Qian nodded.
"The affairs in Jin Dynasty can be settled normally. What really worries me is the Ministry of Commerce.
With businessmen as officials, it is still an entire department, which is unprecedented.
And as everyone knows, businessmen's habits are that if they don't handle it well, the consequences will be disastrous," Liu Jian said solemnly.
“Not only that, according to His Majesty’s wishes, the imperial court will control more and more shops and businesses in the future. If the Ministry of Commerce is strong enough, its influence will be difficult to estimate.
That's fine, the main thing is that His Majesty will understand what's going on in the business world. Then, I'm afraid there will really be trouble in the world tomorrow. "Xie Qian sighed.
Liu Jian and Li Dongyang were slightly silent.
One land, one business world.
Once the two core interests of Ming Dynasty come into contact, Even they don’t know what the consequences will be.
“The affairs of the Ministry of Commerce will not be that simple. It is not easy for Your Majesty to find businessmen who are powerful enough.
Let's do our own thing first. His Majesty is not a patient person, and he may not be unaware of many things.
Let’s see later. "After a long while, Liu Jiandao.
Li Dongyang nodded slightly thoughtfully.
A major earthquake in the officialdom occurred in Jin.
As well as establishing the Ministry of Commerce, recruiting businessmen as officials, The imperial examination added a business test paper to select 100 people.
These two incidents were still the first to explode in the capital.
Relatively speaking, the latter attracts more attention.
"Have you heard that the Jin region captured more than a hundred officials at once because of the smuggling of slaves and grassland people? The factory guards were the first to be struck hard by the new policy."
< br>"It's good to chop it off, that's how it should be. Corrupt officials should be killed. Your Majesty did a good job."
"Yes, yes, we should let the factory guards catch more corrupt officials. Since the New Deal, come to our place." There are fewer people collecting money.”
···
“There are so many wonders in this world. Even businessmen can become officials!”
“Shopkeeper Li, why don’t you sell this restaurant to the court and become an official? Let’s try it as an official.”
“Hahaha, it’s an eternity for a businessman to be an official. Our emperor...”
“Quickly, send the news to my boss immediately. ”
····
The incident in Jin Dynasty was like a thunder in the official circles of the capital, making many officials tremble.
Fear in my heart.
Because they realized that the New Deal was really coming.
The butcher knife is here too.
The Ministry of Commerce matters have even greater influence.
Countless carrier pigeons or manpower spread the news quickly to all directions.
Influence is rapidly fermenting within the Ming Dynasty.
Early the next morning.
Zhu Houzhao took Wang Shouren to the Emperor Wu's dragon riding camp.
Emperor Wu's 10,000 dragon riders and more than 300 noble disciples who had been forcibly sent in all arrived neatly.
Standing at the front were five hundred figures who had removed their dragon knight armor.
These figures wear a round red iron plate on their chests, which is exquisite and gorgeous in workmanship. A red dragon is carved on the front, majestic and domineering, and on the back is their detailed identity in the Dragon Riders of Emperor Wu. Their faces were sad and reluctant, and the atmosphere was quite silent.
After the salute, Zhu Houzhao looked at the five hundred people, raised his brows, and shouted loudly: "What are you unhappy about? I want you to be promoted.
< br>
I even ask you to rectify the troops of Jin and make our Ming army stronger.
The duty of Emperor Wu’s Dragon Cavalry is to fight for the Ming Dynasty.
Went to Jin to reorganize the army and fight again. "
"I tell you, once you are a Dragon Knight of Emperor Wu, you will always be a Dragon Knight of Emperor Wu.
You must not disgrace Emperor Wu Longqi, understand? ”
"Yes!"
"The final general will never disgrace Emperor Wu's Dragon Cavalry!"
Five hundred people shouted loudly.
"Okay, I believe in you, all of you are good.
With you here, I believe that Shanxi's hundreds of thousands of troops will definitely get better and better."< br>
"There are one last words.
Brothers, you know that I hate corrupt officials the most. They use the strong to bully the weak.
You are all officials now. When you arrive in Jin, you will be the lowest. They are all seventh grade.
If one day you are tempted and want to disgrace the Dragon Riders of Emperor Wu, just look at the Dragon Riders iron plate in front of you." >
"I never hope that one day, I will personally order you to be killed.
But for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, I will never show any mercy.
Do you understand?"
< br>"Understood!!"
Five hundred people roared hysterically, with some crying hidden in the loudness.
"The sun, moon, mountains and rivers will always be there! The Ming Dynasty will always be there!"
Five hundred cheers came out again.
Zhu Houzhao's eyes turned slightly red and he waved his hand.
"Okay, let's go, I'll watch you and see you off."
"Boom! Boom!..."
The military drum sounded, heroic and heroic.
I don’t know who takes the lead among the five hundred people. It is clear that Zhu Houzhao does not like people to kneel, and the kneeling ceremony has been clearly abolished in Emperor Wu’s Dragon Cavalry.
But they still knelt down and saluted, then mounted their horses and left the military camp.
Almost everyone shed tears.
Many of the nearly 10,000 Martial Emperor Dragon Riders who were watching were also red-eyed.
Most of them have been together day and night for several years and have experienced life-and-death fights.
Coupled with the treatment and environment of Emperor Wu Longqi who are the best in the world, the depth of feelings cultivated is definitely incomprehensible to most people.
And this parting may never be seen again in this lifetime.
Zhu Houzhao stood on the general stage, watching the five hundred people disappear, feeling a little depressed.
But he had already been prepared.
To set up military pavilions and consolidate the army, it is necessary to have a group of strong, reliable and loyal backbones.
Emperor Wu’s Dragon Cavalry is the best and only choice.
This time there are fifty-three health centers and nineteen towns in Jin.
A total of three to four hundred thousand troops are involved. No matter how powerful Wang Shouren is, it is impossible for one person to rectify it in a short time.
He needs a group of backbones to quickly cut through the mess and deal with the general system, and then slowly train a powerful army.
After all, he couldn't stay in Jin for a long time.
Having these carefully selected five hundred people at hand is enough.
Zhu Houzhao turned his eyes and looked at the remaining Emperor Wu Dragon Cavalry.
“Our brothers have left, but they will always be our brothers.
They just went to another battlefield to fight for the Ming Dynasty.”
"They are only the first batch. There will be many of you in the future, just like them.
Go north, go south, go east, go west, go to my Ming army everywhere, let them become More powerful.
You will be the backbone of our millions of troops in the future."
"Remember, no matter where you go in the future? We must not disgrace Emperor Wu Longqi, understand?”
"Understood!"
Nearly ten thousand shouts rose into the sky.
"Okay, train hard, be literate, and learn more knowledge.
You have to become stronger."
Zhu Houzhao did not stay long. Leaving with the sound of training.
Wang Shouren rushed to Jin with more than 20 people from the military pavilion and 500 Emperor Wu's dragon cavalry.
January 24th.
After more than three days of fighting and following the clues, most of the people have been arrested.
All that is left are some small fish and shrimps in this first step of the plan.
Of course, these small fish and shrimps will not be spared.
But Cao Zhengchun, Guo Bujing and others would not ask more questions.
At this time, they were all feeling quite happy and expectant, but mixed with a little heaviness.
Because this was just the first step of the plan, they had to be surprised by the gold, silver, and assets they obtained.
From 158 officials and 748 minor officials, 2,689,236 taels of silver were confiscated.
