One morning in October, Jia Yun announced a major state event at the morning court!
This matter is to establish a school, which is a very extraordinary school.
The school is called Jinkyo Military Academy!
From now on, only officials who have studied at the Shenjing Military Attaché Academy are eligible to be appointed as military attachés of fourth rank or above!
Jia Yun personally serves as the dean of the Shenjing Military Academy, and the deputy dean has not yet been decided.
The five teachers are tentatively designated, namely Lian Liang, the cabinet minister and minister of the Ministry of War, Lu Lian, the minister of the bodyguard department, Cao Wu, the commander of the Zhongwu Camp, Tang Daqian, the commander of the imperial guards, and Xin Yong, the general manager of the internal firearms factory.
This is an action that Jia Yun has planned for a long time!
Obviously, in this way, the emperor Jia Yun can better control the general power, and in the future, all military attaches above the fourth rank will become his emperor's disciples!
Jia Yun did this in order to quickly upgrade the Qing Dynasty's army and catch up with the West in the military field. In the future, the main battlefield for the Qing Dynasty's army will not be domestic, but the world!
Let Lian Liang be the teacher because he is the Minister of the Ministry of War, has both civil and military skills, and has strong comprehensive ability.
Lu Lian was previously the Jingying Jiedu Envoy, and also assisted Jia Yun in seizing the throne. Although Jia Yun promoted him to the rank of second-class Duke after he ascended the throne, he was also transferred from the Jingying Jiedushi Envoy to the Guards Department.
Interior Minister.
The Jiedushi envoy in the Beijing camp and the ministers in the bodyguard department were both first-class military attachés, but their actual power was much different.
The real power of the Jiedu envoys in the Beijing camp is naturally very large, while the real power of the ministers in the bodyguard department can be considered small.
There are only a few hundred foreign guards in the Guard Department, and the top leader is Cao Wei, the internal minister who leads the Guard Department. There are six internal ministers...
It can be said that although the so-called Minister of the Guard is of high rank, his main job is nothing more than to assist the Minister of the Guard in guarding the palace. To put it more bluntly, the Minister of the Guard is somewhat like the leader of the Palace Security Department and is not even the top leader.
This means that although Jia Yun granted Lu Lian the title of second-class Duke, he still seized Lu Lian's military power.
Lu Lian himself also knew that Jia Yun did this out of lack of trust in him.
He was not close to Jia Yun before. When Jia Yun raised an army to seize the throne, he, as the governor of the Beijing camp, was originally going to lead the Beijing camp to the capital to deal with Jia Yun, but he was temporarily persuaded to submit by Lian Liang.
Lu Lian was also open-minded. In his opinion, he had already been made a second-class Duke of the highest rank, and he could at least serve as a minister of the first-class bodyguard department, and he would have a chance to gain Jia Yun's further trust.
After serving as minister of the bodyguard department for five months, Lu Lian had successfully gained further trust from Jia Yun.
So this time, Jia Yun asked Lu Lian to serve as a teacher at the Shenjing Military Academy.
Although this is just a teacher's status, this kind of teacher is not simple. In the future, almost all students will be military attachés of the fourth rank or above, including senior military officers of the first and second rank.
Jia Yun's appointment this time is also a signal that he reuses Lu Lian. As long as Lu Lian becomes a teacher at the Shenjing Military Academy, he will probably be reused by Jia Yun in the future.
Cao Wu and Tang Daqian were also appointed as teachers at the Shenjing Military Academy. Jia Yun could use them to enhance the loyalty of the students in the academy to him, the emperor.
Both of them also participated in the Southern and Northern Wars, and both made great military achievements and had considerable experience as military commanders. Moreover, Tang Daqian was good at firearms, so Tang Daqian could give lectures on firearms.
As for why Xin Yong, the general manager of the internal firearms factory, was appointed as a teacher, the answer is obvious: Xin Yong was asked to teach firearms.
Although five teachers have been tentatively appointed, these five teachers all have their own jobs and are busy with their essential work. Naturally, the time and energy the four of them have to spend at the Shinkyo Military Academy is limited.
But it doesn’t matter. In addition to the five teachers, Jia Yun will also appoint ten assistant teachers.
Today's morning meeting, when Jia Yun announced the decision to establish the Shenjing Military Academy, it aroused objections from several officials, including Cabinet Minister Yuan Yanghao and Minister of Rites Feng Xie.
Only a few officials objected. Prince Liang, Prince Nan'an, Ji Cunxiao, Cao Wei, Lian Liang, Xiao Fu, Yu Zhu, etc. all expressed their approval, while some princes and officials remained silent.
Among the officials who objected, some were not opposed to the establishment of the Shenjing Military Academy, but had other objections. For example, some believed that Cao Wu and Tang Daqian were still young and not qualified to be teachers, and some believed that Xin Yong was a craftsman.
His background is not enough to be a teacher...
Under this situation, Jia Yun relied on his current high prestige to naturally decide the matter!
…
…
Previously, Jia Yun had merged the inner firearms battalion and the outer firearms battalion into the Shenjing firearms army.
Jia Yun also planned to merge the inner firearms factory and the outer firearms factory into Shenjing Firearms Factory in the future, and move the inner firearms factory from the northeast corner of the inner city of Shenjing to the western suburbs of Shenjing.
There are two main reasons for this.
First, the main camp of the Shenjing Firearms Army is in the western suburbs, which is also the main camp of the original Waiwai Firearms Camp.
Secondly, in the future, firearms will be strictly controlled in Shenjing City, especially the advanced firearms developed by Jia Yun. This can ensure the safety of Jia Yun, protect the safety of Shenjing City, and also allow Jia Yun to have some freedom. Otherwise, he, the emperor, will
You need to be very cautious even when moving within the city of Shenjing.
In the future, the Shenjing Military Attaché Academy will have in-depth ties with the Shenjing Firearms Factory and the Shenjing Firearms Army. Considering this, Jia Yun established this academy near the West Wall of the inner city of Shenjing.
A month later, after many craftsmen worked hard, a mansion located near the west wall of the inner city of Shinkyo was simply transformed into the Shinkyō Military Academy.
One morning in November.
Jia Yun, who had gone to the morning court, had breakfast and paid greetings to the two empress dowagers, accompanied by a group of royal officials and protected by many eunuchs, guards, officers and soldiers, left the palace and came to the inner city.
Jinkyo Military Attaché Academy near Nishigaki.
At this time, there is already a group of military attache students waiting here. This group of students is not too large but not too small. There are twenty people, all of whom are preparing to be promoted to military attachés of the fourth grade or above. They constitute the military attache in Shenjing.
The first batch of military attache students studying in the academy.
After Jia Yun arrived, in front of him, five teachers, Lian Liang, Lu Lian, Cao Wu, Tang Daqian and Xin Yong, hung the plaque of Shenjing Military Academy on the gate of the college.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Jia Yun stood under the plaque in front of the gate, facing the crowds of people at the scene, and said loudly: "I announce that the Shenjing Military Academy is officially established today!
"
Immediately afterwards, Lian Liang, as a teacher representative, gave a speech in which he mentioned the twenty military attache students in the first batch. At the end of the speech, Lian Liang loudly said: "Classes at the Shenjing Military Attaché Academy will begin today!"
Immediately afterwards, Jia Yun led everyone into the college and came to a large classroom transformed from a hall. Xin Yong stood on the podium. Today's first class was given by Xin Yong.
This is also Jia Yun's arrangement.
Because Jia Yun knows very well that in future wars, firearms will become more and more important!
Military attaché students further their studies at the Shenjing Military Attaché Academy. They mainly study in two aspects. One is loyalty to Jia Yun, and the other is military literacy. Among military literacy, firearms are a key point.
Xin Yong was inevitably nervous. Although his status was now higher due to Jia Yun's promotion, he was a craftsman after all, and the twenty military attache students sitting in the audience were all preparing to be promoted to the fourth grade.
Not to mention the above military attachés, there were also many princes, officials, eunuchs, and bodyguards present, and even the emperor Jia Yun was sitting there.
Nervous as he was, Xin Yong still started his class...
This class is not long, only half an hour, which is an hour.
The content of this class is naturally related to firearms.
In just half an hour, Xin Yong gave a general introduction to all the current firearms of the Qing Dynasty, including the trip mines developed by Jia Yun, explosive packs, bayonet flintlocks, grenades, and Zhongwu rocket launchers. Of course, there was no shortage of praise during the process.
Jia Yun.
Jia Yun has told Xin Yong in detail that Xin Yong can only introduce advanced firearms to military attache students and is not allowed to pass on the secrets of research and development.
For example, Xin Yong can introduce how to use Zhongwu rocket launchers, introduce the weight, transportation, range, rate of fire, power, etc. of Zhongwu rocket launchers, but he cannot teach how to make Zhongwu rocket launchers.
Military attachés who are studying at the Shinkyo Military Attaché Academy generally do not need to understand the research and development secrets of how to make Chungmu rocket launchers.
After half an hour of lecture, Xin Yong came to Jia Yun nervously: "Your Majesty, is there anything inappropriate in what I just said?"
Jia Yun smiled and patted Xin Yong on the shoulder: "That's very good."
Xin Yong immediately breathed a sigh of relief and became excited. Not only was he excited about Jia Yun's appreciation, he was also excited that he had given lectures to so many princes and officials today. Even Jia Yun sat in the classroom for half an hour, starting from the beginning.
Wei listened carefully to his lecture.
In the past, how could he, a craftsman, have expected that such a thing would happen? Jia Yun's kindness to him was really profound. Now he is really grateful to Jia Yun, and his loyalty is simply overwhelming!
…
…
Another month passed and it was December.
One day in December, Prince Zhongshun, who had been imprisoned in Jingshan for more than half a year, was lying on a shabby bed in a simple bedroom in the dilapidated prison. His face was as white as wax, his eyes were closed and he was breathing on the pillow. He ended his life in resentment towards Jia Yun.
On the last journey, Xiao Ran passed away, but before he died, he suddenly opened his eyes and refused to close his eyes!
Since Prince Zhongshun was imprisoned in the dilapidated prison in Jingshan, his material life was not only very bad, but he was also in a very bad mental state every day. Such material life and mental state made him age a lot in just a few months.
My body also collapsed a lot.
Recently, Prince Zhongshun fell ill. It was not a fatal illness. However, under the arrangement of Jia Yun and the operation of Prince Zong Lingliang of the Zongren Mansion, Prince Zhongshun failed to receive good treatment. In addition, his material life was still very poor.
Oops, including diet, so this non-fatal disease killed Prince Zhongshun!
Prince Zhongshun, who didn't want to die, who wanted to live as richly as before, ended up dying tragically in the dilapidated prison in Jingshan.
Thinking back to the day he was imprisoned in Jingshan, he had thought that he would probably die here soon after being imprisoned in such a terrible prison.
He was right about this!
On the day that Prince Zhongshun died of illness, the news spread among the royal family and the imperial court, triggering many people to discuss it in secret, but it was just a discussion in secret.
If the death of Prince Zhongshun had occurred when Jia Yun first ascended the throne, it would have caused a commotion. After all, this was a prince, and a prince of the royal family. In terms of blood relationship, Prince Zhongshun was still Jia Yun's uncle.
However, now, there will be no more turmoil, and no one even blames Jia Yun face to face for this matter, not even the Empress Dowager.
In fact, the Empress Dowager had long expected that Jia Yun would probably not let Prince Zhongshun live for long, and would probably kill Prince Zhongshun.
The death of Prince Zhongshun was not only Jia Yun's revenge on Prince Zhongshun, but also a serious warning from Jia Yun to the Xia family royal family. He warned the Xia family royal family that he now has the ability and courage to severely punish the members of the royal family, even the prince!
This warning is also necessary.
Because Jia Yun was the sixth prince who came out of nowhere, he was not welcome in the Xia family royal family until he raised an army to seize the throne.
In the early days when he started to seize the throne, many people in the Xia family royal family tried to cause trouble.
Even though he had stabilized the court and secured his power by suppressing the rebellion of the Qing Dynasty and defeating the Ming Dynasty, there were still some members of the Xia family royal family who were not convinced by him and still tried to cause trouble.
After Xia Hao, Xia Huang, and Xia Yi learned about the death of Prince Zhongshun, they all became even more depressed and lost. They couldn't help but become afraid, fearing that one day they would die tragically in Jingshan Forbidden City like Prince Zhongshun.
The Empress Dowager "summoned" Jia Yun to the Ningshou Palace area. She said it was a summons, but in fact it was an invitation.
The Queen Mother chatted with Jia Yun alone for a while. There was no one else present but the two of them. Not only did the Queen Mother not dare to blame her face to face, she instead expressed her apology to Jia Yun tactfully, meaning that she should recognize Jia Yun as a new member as soon as possible.
Emperor...
The Empress Dowager Yin also took advantage of Jia Yun's greetings in the morning to chat with Jia Yun alone for a while, and also expressed her apology tactfully...
Jia Yun knew that the apology of these two palace nobles was their helpless act. They were doing it to save themselves, Xia Hao, Xia Yi and others.
But Jia Yun still felt happy. In his opinion, this was the surrender of the two palace nobles to him, but he still would not relax his surveillance and guard against them.
…
…
In a blink of an eye, it’s December 30th, which is New Year’s Eve. This is the New Year’s Eve of the seventh year of Tianzhi.
On New Year's Eve, the Rongguo Mansion was busy. Not only were they busy with ancestor worship, but on New Year's Eve, Jia Mu and other people who had titles had to enter the palace in court clothes according to their rank to pay tribute in the morning.
As the emperor, Jia Yun is naturally even busier today.
Even so, that night, Jia Yun reunited with Qing Wan, Bu Wuniang, Xue Baochai and other harem women, and spent the New Year's Eve of the seventh year of Tianzhi happily.
The next day is the first day of the first lunar month, the first day of the first lunar month of the prosperous age!
Jia Yun was still busy on this day, and in the midst of his busy life, he started his prosperous reign!
The seven years of Tianzhi that have just passed have been a very important year for Jia Yun, especially since he raised an army to seize the throne and became emperor. Starting from the first day of the first lunar month of the first year of the prosperous age, he will create his prosperous age...
