Chapter 262 Xishan Musket Camp

"Emperor, you will move all the military battle bureaus, military weapons bureaus, firearms, gunpowder and other places under your jurisdiction to Xishan with the Military Preparation Institute. That's the garrison..." Wang Chengen bowed slightly and reminded Emperor Chongzhen.

Wang Chengen has a new understanding of the importance of the military preparatory institute, especially the military battles, military weapons bureaus, and his royal courts are handed over to Xu Guangqi's special office. Where should I remind you, as a close servant

He must remind him.

"I'm thinking about this too."

Emperor Chongzhen stood up and walked back and forth in the East Warehouse. He frowned and said, "The place in Xishan is a distance from the capital after all.

What really happens? Even if you want to solve it, there is no time left.

If there is no special army responsible for the garrison in the Xishan area, hidden dangers will inevitably arise, such as custody and craftsmen's escape from home.

In addition, the military weapons bureau, military war bureau and other departments have all moved to Xishan Luoya with the Military Preparatory Institute. I plan to ask the Military Preparatory Institute to take charge of it."

As the firearms, gunpowder manufacturing units, military weapons bureaus, or military weapons bureaus in the Ming Dynasty, they are from different systems, called the Military Preparatory Institute engaged in the development, and riding on them to command, they will inevitably call some people.

, there are some resistance or even secretly stumbling.

As for the current style of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen didn't have to think too much about it. He did not have a deterrent military preparatory in his hands. It would definitely be unrealistic to control the military battle and military weapon bureaus.

"Emperor, do you want to set up a garrison in Xishan?" Wang Chengen followed Emperor Chongzhen and carefully expressed his thoughts.

"not good."

Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "If you really want to set up a garrison, is it the Xishan Guard in charge of the Military Preparation Institute? Or is the Military Preparation Institute in charge of the Xishan Guard?

Wang, go and call someone and call Gao Qiqian to me."

"Here!"

Wang Chengen hurriedly bowed and replied.

The Ming Dynasty's ward system has been completely destroyed and cannot play its original role at all. It has even become a borer attached to the Ming Dynasty.

If the Ming army wants to restore its former strength, it must use a new military system to gradually ban the degenerate garrison system and train a new army.

The experiences explored by the Xiyuan Martial Arts Hall, including the orphans he raised, were planned by Emperor Chongzhen.

When the political level of "civil and noble" is reversed, we will correct the so-called "good men are not in the army" ideology of the Ming Dynasty and cultivate more professional soldiers. Then the Ming army will surely become stronger!

The Wubei Institute is in charge of the firearms and gunpowder affairs under the jurisdiction of the military bureau, the Military Equipment Bureau and other departments. This is the firearms that Emperor Chongzhen wanted to integrate the military production in the Jingji area with continuous mass production and high-quality firearms with strong performance and high-quality energy sources.

, to lay a foundation for the subsequent rectification of the three major camps, meet the needs of dressing, and lay a foundation.

"I will raise my servant and pay homage to the emperor."

Looking at Emperor Chongzhen who bowed Gao Qiqian and stood with his hands behind his back, he thought for a while and said, "Gao Qiqian, how has the reconstruction of the Four Guards Camp?"

Since we want to give the Martial Arts Academy privileges and ask Xu Guangqi and others to build the first military-industrial system of the Ming Dynasty, we must eliminate all hidden dangers and truly solve the problem.

Gao Qiqian bowed and said, "Go back to the emperor, thanks to the elite troops drawn from the Yongwei Camp and the Zhongyong Army, the Four Guards have been rebuilt.

Although it is still not as powerful as the Yongwei Camp and the Zhongyong Army, I believe that in the end, the Four Guards will be here…”

This ability to praise is really strong.

The Four Guards, who had never been to the battlefield and had seen blood, wanted to catch up with the Yongwei Battalion, the Zhongyong Army, and the Tianxiong Army, was purely a delusion.

“Good done.”

Emperor Chongzhen calmed down and said, "I want to move the Military Preparation Institute to Xishan. The Military Bureau, the Military Equipment Bureau and other departments have firearms, gunpowder, etc., and they must also move them.

Considering that the place in Xishan is far away from the capital, I decided to create the Xishan Musket Camp, which is nominally under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Horse Prison, but in fact it is directly under the jurisdiction of the Military Preparation Institute.

From the Four Guards, you select 3,000 soldiers and set up a guerrilla general, wait for Xu Qing to dispatch, and take on the garrison of the West Mountain.

After the settlement in Xishan, the Xishan Musket Battalion recruits another 5,000 auxiliary soldiers, and treats them equally. Do you know what to do?"

"I understand!"

Gao Qiqian hurriedly responded, but a little surprised and suspicious in his heart. His own emperor was too kind to the Martial Arts Institute.

They moved to Xishan and set up a special army, which was directly under the jurisdiction of the Wubei Academy and nominally belonged to the Imperial Horse Supervision. Isn’t this explicit intention to block the court’s ministers?

In fact, Gao Qiqian was right to guess, but he thought it was a bit superficial. Emperor Chongzhen did this by using various methods to expand his military power under actual control.

The Zhongyong Army stationed in Fengtai Camp and the Xishan Musketeer Camp stationed in Xishan were all transferred by Emperor Chongzhen, rather than being able to mobilize with a letter from the Ministry of War.

This is to proceed to rectify the three camps in the future. The group of generals and schools who graduated from the Xiyuan Martial Arts Hall can avoid accidents when taking over the three camps.

The good and bad of the three camps will be related to Emperor Chongzhen's future plans, to quell the Shanxi rebellion, gradually replace the old army, conquering the eight banners of Jianlu, etc.

"The Emperor... set up the Xishan Musket Camp. If the ministers in the court know about it, it will cause some storm, right?" Wang Chengen stepped forward and said.

"What kind of storm can it cause?"

Emperor Chongzhen asked back: "The Xishan Musket Camp was nominally transferred from the Four Guards of the Imperial Horse Supervision. I asked the Four Guards to go to Xishan to be responsible for the garrison of the Military Preparation Institute. Is there anything wrong with it?

Wang Baobao, you are the eunuch in charge of the seal and the supervisor of the great masters. Don’t always be so scrupulous. If you can really share more worries for me, do you understand?"

"I understand."

In fact, if you want to check and balance the Ming Dynasty, all forces will restrict each other. The eunuch group in the inner court must be supported and help Emperor Chongzhen share his worries more.

Influenced by Wei Yin of the Tianqi Dynasty, the eunuchs in the Chongzhen Dynasty were far from that level. Emperor Chongzhen must train them to stand on their own, such as Wang Chengen, who are trustworthy and usable eunuchs.

As for eunuchs like Gao Qiqian, they just need to be tied to each other. If they really don’t open their eyes, they will kill them on the surface.

However, through Wang Chengen and others' performance, Emperor Chongzhen also knew in his heart that it would take some time to go to call those credible and usable eunuchs who truly stand alone. To be a good emperor of the Ming Dynasty is really a long way to go, and everything is necessary
