Chapter 66 Beating (1)

The emperor's meaning is obvious, so the drunkard should not drink.

It refers to the border, but it refers to the second line behind the border.

Since you are a second-tier line, you still have so much power in your hands, what do you need to do with so many soldiers?

At this time, Zhu Yunxi continued, "Look, there are a bunch of soldiers and horses on the front line and a bunch of soldiers and horses on the second line. Isn't this a problem of redundant soldiers and officials going on in my Ming Dynasty?"

(redundant,rong.)

"It wasn't that the Ming Dynasty had no money, and I was not willing to spend money. But if I had raised a bunch of people who didn't eat or do things, and even had bad things, then this money would be better than throwing it into water, and it would be possible to hear it even if I threw it into water, right?"

"And, this matter also concerns future generations!"

"The King of Yan is worthy of being the first king of the country. He has a great experience in military affairs, which is indeed extraordinary." Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, "This proposal, when we convene the Ministry of War and the Five Army Governors' Office in a few days, we can discuss it carefully!"

"I... damn you, you're going to have a trap for me again?"

Zhu Di was already cursing in his heart. Who dared to say that he made this proposal himself? There were too many people who offended and too many things involved.

This is going to destroy the jobs of a large number of people. If others know what they have proposed, then the good reputation they have accumulated in the army over the years will be a fool!

"The north must have smart and powerful soldiers. I will make a very beautiful metaphor. If you don't have a thousand days to defend against thieves, you can only be a thief for a thousand days."

"We are so cruel to fight the Tartars. They will cause trouble for us all these years as long as they breathe."

"How can you let others sleep soundly under the bed? King Yan, your method is very consistent with my heart, let's fight it out."

As he said that, Zhu Yunxiu frowned slightly, "But there is also a problem. It seems that the cavalry are more scattered among the provincial capitals of all regions and regions in the nine borders?"

"I remember that in all the wars, cavalry from all over the world gathered together to command the battle. There was no large-scale cavalry like the Tatars who could be drawn out at any time and attacked wherever they were, right?"

Zhu Di thought about his words several times in his mind.

After confirming that there were no traps, he said carefully, "It's not that there is no such thing as the emperor. The second camp of Tiger, Leopard, Flying Bear under my command are all cavalrymen. In addition to the Han army, there are also the three guards of Duoyan..."

"Look, it's still too scattered!" Zhu Yunxi sighed, "The cavalry is originally the steel sword of the Ming Dynasty. Dispersing it will not mean hiding the knife in the face of the enemy?"

Suddenly, Zhu Di's heart skipped a beat.

It's hard to guard against routines.

"I have a suggestion. King Yan, please listen. I have never trained in the border and I am not considered aware of the military. Please give me the staff and advisers." Zhu Yunxi continued, "What if the cavalry of each ministry was drawn out and a cavalry army specializing in fighting against the Tartars outside the Frontier?"

"As you said just now, there are many men who will take turns to go out to the frontier in Yanzhao? Is this what you said?"

"I..." Zhu Di was silent and could only smile bitterly in his heart, "I said it, but I didn't mean that!"

But if you think about it carefully, if you really have a large-scale cavalry unit, it will be harmful and no benefit to the war.

But, in whose hands is this army?

In fact, in Zhu Di's opinion, this is the key to the problem.

There is no need to speculate on the meaning of the emperor's words. The lice on the monk's head is obviously obvious.

Whose cavalry will be drawn?

Among the Nine Frontier Kings, King Ning had the largest number of cavalry and had the three guards under his command, which were not included in the military list.

"Five and Seventeen, why do you two offend him?"

Zhu Di could only mourn the two brothers in his heart. But when he thought of Ning Wang's attitude as if he was the eldest and the second, he couldn't help but feel happy.

"The Hu people have always had two advantages over the Central Plains. One is the geographical advantage, which comes from the north. The other is the military, and large-scale cavalry can attack at any time, which makes the soldiers and horses from all over the Central Plains dare not fight without permission, and can only defend themselves and fall into a disadvantage."

Zhu Yunxiong continued, "But if we form a large-scale cavalry regiment, we can beat him up with the methods of the Tartars." As he said, he grinned, "I may be searching elsewhere, but if there are 30,000 to 50,000 cavalrymen, I will really be willing to pay for the capital!"

Zhu Di thought about it, made up his mind and gritted his teeth, "Long live, in fact, there is only one of the iron cavalry. My big open fire weapon is sharp, and I can form a cavalry musket artillery team, and get on the horse and dismount to bombard it. It is elusive and has great lethality."

The Ming army actually had more mixed troops to fight, such as cavalry, archers, crossbowmen, firearms, infantry, etc. The Ming army did not lack the means to attack the enemy, but the problem was that these troops were not connected to each other on weekdays, and they could not be integrated if they were not famous generals in the army.

In other words, if these good soldiers are handed over to the hands of fools, they will not only fail to perform, but will also be bad.

If such a standing corps is established, the disadvantages of not being in charge of each other and neglecting cooperation can be avoided.

"The King of Yan and I coincide with each other." Zhu Yunxi smiled, "In fact, there are already such musket cavalry troops in the Beijing camp."

Zhu Di was stunned, "When...?"

"It has been planned for several years, and all the soldiers are both horses. The army does not regard rushing to the formation as its strength. When the enemy is dismounted from the horse and shot, the enemy chases the horse and leaves. Everyone in the team is equipped with muskets and horse-drawn cannon trucks for field battles."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Di sighed again in his heart.

"You're so hiding!"

After pondering for a moment, hesitated and asked, "Dare you ask the emperor, who is the commander of the army?"

"Jiangyin Marquis Wu Gao is the deputy." Zhu Yunsheng smiled.

"Oh, that man is still successful. His brother was studying in Wenhua Palace, and later served in the army. He went to the frontier in the 16th year of Hongwu." Zhu Di said, "In the early years, Wu Gao and the minister also followed the former Duke of Ying to the frontier. His man was not as brave as his brother, and he was even more capable. He was a suitable candidate for troops." As he said that, he asked again, "He is the deputy? Who is the main person?"

Zhu Yunxi smiled, "Duke Cao Li Jinglong!"

"Ah?" Zhu Di thought he had heard it wrong, and then said seriously after a moment, "Emperor, Li Jiujiang is not the one who leads the army, I think..."

Zhu Yunxiu stood up, moved his waist and arms, stood beside the iron stove and watched the roasted Hongshu break the other party, "You agree with forming a large-scale cavalry corps, right?"

Then, without waiting for the other party to speak, he continued, "There must be such a deterrent corps. Among them, the soldiers must be all elites of the Ming Dynasty."

"King Yan, do you think we can draw elite troops from all over the place? What are your feelings about going to King Ning this time?"

Zhu Di sighed again in his heart and said to himself, "I understand, isn't it just taking the blame again? I'll just take the blame!"

So he spoke, "The cavalry under his seventeenth brother is better than me. If the emperor wants to form a standing cavalry, the three guards of Duoyan under the command of King Ning will be the first to be affected."

As he said that, he paused, "Actually, this is also a good thing. The three guards of Duoyan should be rectified properly, otherwise the Hu people would be unruly."

"The King of Yan is truly insightful!" Zhu Yunxiu praised and said to the Hanlin official who was always sitting in the corner on the other side, "I wrote down all the words of the King of Yan and sent them back to the Governor's Office of the Five Army of the Ministry of War."

At this time, Zhu Di saw that there was still a person sitting in the corner.

And when the man heard this, he grinned at Zhu Di.

"It's so fucking ugly!" Zhu Di cursed in his heart.

Just let me take the blame, but are you still afraid that I will not recognize it? Do you still have to put the words on the paper?

"The establishment of a cavalry regiment depends on King Yan. Let Uncle Fifteen really help you when he turns around!" Zhu Yunsheng said with a smile.

Who doesn’t know that the King of Liao obeys the emperor? Assist? Hum?

Zhu Di bowed his head and said, "I obey the order!"

He gave up the stubbornness in his heart, which did not mean that he had no temper. The reason for his cooperation was that this standing army was really a magic weapon for him.

With such a corps, why worry about not being able to make achievements and eliminate the Tartars?

"I have also handed over my cavalry and musket troops in the capital to you, Commander Wu Gao. After practicing for a few years, it's time to go to the border to see blood." Zhu Yunsheng said.

Zhu Di was overjoyed, "The Emperor is wise."

"The young generals and officials of the Governor's Office of the Five Army in the Beijing are also required to participate in the construction and training of the cavalry corps. They cannot be made into weapons without being carved, they must be tempered!" Zhu Yunsheng said.

This is a matter of winning multiple goals in one fell swoop. It can not only mix sand but also train generals, but also ensure the loyalty of this large-scale cavalry legion to the court.

"I obey the order!" Zhu Di said.

"There is another thing!" Zhu Yunxiu looked up and smiled, "King of Yan?"

When Zhu Di saw his smile, his spine became cold.

"What's the matter with the emperor?"
