Chapter 45 Rescue Xiong Tingbi, hang the head of the civil servant for public display!
Zhang Gui was taken aback for a moment, thinking that Tianqi is really not a foolish king who only knows how to be a carpenter. He understood what he meant so quickly.
Tian Qi then smiled slightly: "But apart from agreeing to you, I have no other better way. If these technologies are handed over to the Ministry of Industry and the Bingzhan Bureau, they will undoubtedly make crude firearms. I also know that the Ministry of Industry and Bingzhan Bureau What is missing is not the skills, but the top and bottom are broken."
Speaking of this, Tian Qi said: "The Fifth Army Commander's Mansion no longer has any real power, but now, I have decided to restore some of his real power, and set up the Industrial Division and Ordnance Division in the Central Military Commander's Mansion where you were the Zuo Commander! The Industrial Division Song Yingxing, the disciple who is currently working for you, will be in charge of the sixth grade, and Qi Qing’s family will also be in charge of the Ordnance Department. The office and factory of the two departments are still located in Xishan. The purchase of raw materials and the sale of finished products of the two departments need to be approved by the West Factory, and The West Factory needs to report directly to me. I will give 10% of the profits of the two companies to the Zhang family, and the rest of the managers and craftsmen will also share 10% of their monthly salary. In this way, it is not in vain to let you do these things for me."
"Thank you, Your Majesty Long."
Zhang Gui and others all replied, and they all laughed sincerely.
Even Song Yingxing was delighted, because it meant that he, who had been waiting for the selection of officials in the Ministry of Officials, finally got an official position in the court.
"In this way, Xishan cannot be guarded by heavy troops."
"How about this, set up a fort in Xishan, set up a battalion, call it Xishan Camp, and still belong to the Beijing Camp. Next, train and expand the army, and form a Xishan battalion."
After thinking about it again, Tian Qi said to Zhang Gui.
"What your majesty said is that if you want to train your majesty's soldiers, you can't do without your majesty's generals. In my opinion, you must first set up a military training school, and select loyal, brave and wise people as future generals!"
"Because most of the good fighters in the world are private generals, they are not completely trained by the court, and they are not generals who are absolutely loyal to His Majesty. As a result, most of the good fighters are private soldiers of the generals, not soldiers of the court."
Zhang Gui took the opportunity to raise the necessity of establishing a military academy.
Tian Qi was silent for a long time after hearing this, and suddenly asked Zhang Gui: "Wu Bei Academy, how to train?"
"Select veterans who can no longer kill the enemy and return to the field to go to Beijing to train generals for His Majesty, instead of staying at home and only train the children of the clan! In addition, those who have been dismissed or dismissed from office can also be used as martial arts masters to replace Your Majesty. Practitioner! It can be regarded as the best use of talent. For example, Xiong Tingbi who has been imprisoned."
Zhang Gui replied.
After Tian Qi heard this, he looked at Zhang Gui for a while, and suddenly asked: "Then who do you think is suitable for this martial art?"
Zhang Gui knew the meaning of Tianqi, and replied without thinking: "Of course His Majesty is in charge!"
"Since you said so, I decided to try!"
"The army only obeys my orders, and the generals only obey my orders. This is indeed what I want to see. If it can be realized through a military training school as you said, it will naturally be the best."
As he spoke, Tian Qi said: "I agree! Xiong Tingbi will not be held accountable for his crimes!"
Immediately, Tianqi ordered the cannon to Wei Zhongxian: "Preach the will, let him go, and say that it is the uncle Guo's request."
Then, Tian Qi moved Zhang Gui again: "Other veterans or veterans who have served as soldiers, you will also be recommended for me, and the military preparation school must be set up as soon as possible."
"yes!"
Zhang Gui replied.
Xiong Tingbi was impeached and resigned because of the defeat of Guangning at the beginning of the second year of Tianqi, and was imprisoned together with Wang Huazhen in the imperial prison.
According to the development of the original history, he will be executed in the fifth year of Tianqi, becoming the first Liaodong strategist executed in Ming Dynasty.
Now Zhang Gui, a butterfly from later generations, flapped his wings a little, which changed Xiong Tingbi's personal fate.
Of course, in essence, it has little to do with Tianqi's motivation to execute Xiong Tingbi.
Otherwise, in history, Xiong Tingbi would not have been executed from the second year of the apocalypse to the fifth year of the apocalypse.
Xiong Tingbi's execution in history had a lot to do with his personal character. He had a bad temper and was stubborn, so he didn't deal with anyone. He didn't have a good relationship with the Donglin Party or the Eunuch Party, and he was unwilling to give in. , and fell to the end of life and death.
Of course, in Zhang Gui's opinion, it is a good thing that Xiong Tingbi's shortcomings can be used in the Military Academy to discipline future military students.
No matter what the background of the officer student is, Zhang Gui believes that Xiong Tingbi dares to discipline him.
…
Daming Gate.
Entering the Qianbu Corridor from here, the civil servants who went to the central government offices looked at these heads, and it is conceivable how they felt, some were deeply shocked, and some were angry.
"It's brutal!"
Wang Ji, who succeeded Zhang Heming as Minister of the Ministry of War, couldn't help but gritted his teeth and said something to his colleague Hou Xun when he passed by Daming Gate.
"Restoring Zhang Jiangling's official rank, ordering the military official Zhang Gui to rectify the Beijing camp, setting up the West Factory, setting up a military equipment school, and getting Xiong Tingbi out of prison. Everything is preparing for him to become a lone husband and a traitor!"
"Since our country's uncle and the **** Wei Zhongxian have been favored, today relying on these two people, they have become more and more unscrupulous, chaotic rituals and government, and they are relentless! Fanggong was punished, and Qian and Guan Ergong issued an edict. Prison, it’s just that they are threatening me, Donglin Qunxian.”
Hou Xun also followed up after listening.
Wang Ji couldn't help asking after hearing this: "What did he say? Is he willing to just watch this uncle of the country coerce the emperor to do mean and cruel things?"
Hou Xun replied: "He said that Qian and Guan Ergong were in prison, but they were not dealt with. It is clear that the emperor is setting a trap for my Donglin group of sages. Who is pleading for the two of them at this time, or criticizing Uncle Guo, etc. Whoever secretly harbors dissatisfaction with the emperor will be framed as the accomplice of Qian and Guan Ergong! He told us to bear it for a while and pay attention to the emperor's intention to train his own soldiers and horses."
"What he said was that the emperor suddenly ordered to rectify the Beijing camp, and only let the military minister Zhang Gui admiral supervise the military administration of the Beijing camp, and did not let me, my own soldier, participate. The old thing, setting up a military training school, is exactly the same as the old martial arts temple accepting a large number of military ministers from the frontier army as adopted sons! The emperor must first train his own soldiers and horses before he dares to implement his new policy."
Wang Ji thought for a while and said.
"So, you can't let the emperor have his own soldiers and horses! What's more, with the virtue of today's son, if you have soldiers and horses in your hands, you will definitely do evil things!"
Hou Xun suddenly said firmly.
Wang Ji nodded and asked, "Then what countermeasures did he propose?"
"What he means is that in today's world, not only do we not want the emperor to be a lone husband, but also the generals on the nine sides, especially the generals in Liaodong!"
"And if your Majesty wants to train soldiers and horses, he must first have money and food. Now the foundation of your Majesty's military training is nothing more than a large sum of money and food obtained from ransacking one's home."
"So, as long as you unite with the generals from the nine sides and your colleagues in the court to take advantage of the shortage of Liao's salary and the Jianlu to raise troops again, extort money and food from the court, and force your majesty to use all the gains from the house raids as Liao's salary. Your Majesty no longer has the foundation for military training!"
"Even if the proceeds from ransacking the house are too much, enough to provide Liao's salary for a year, we can also take the opportunity to report more disasters and rebellions in various places. In short, we will try our best to make the emperor's ransacked house use up, and finally let these raided houses return to our hands. "
Hou Xun said.
Wang Ji took it very seriously after hearing this: "It makes sense! Force the emperor to allocate internal funds to pay for disaster relief, and exhaust his income from confiscating his home. Let's see how he trains again?!"
Wang Ji said and asked again: "But what if the emperor doesn't dial?"
"How can the emperor disregard the life and death of the soldiers and civilians?! Once the towns and border troops are forced to mutiny and the refugees make trouble, it is not for fun."
Hou Xun sneered.
Wang Ji gave a "hmm" and said with a smile: "So, when the emperor is forced to allocate the proceeds from the house raids for military pay and disaster relief, it can just be used for what should be lost, and what should be embezzled!"
"Exactly! It's better to ask for more, so that the emperor not only has no money, but even finds that he owes money to the soldiers and civilians all over the world. So, let's see how he dares to train soldiers."
Hou Xun replied.
Wang Jidao: "His strategy is very clever!"
"He has already written letters to the generals in Liaodong and the governors of various places, and soon there will be urgent deliveries from the governors of Liaodong and other places."
Hou Xun said again: "At that time, we will see how the princes and others can facilitate this matter, and force the emperor to allocate internal funds for state affairs!"
Wang Jidao: "Don't worry, I have my own countermeasures."
…
"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Industry all submit the inscriptions and ask the imperial court to allocate money."
On this day, Han Yu, who has become the first assistant and is on duty in Xiyuan, received the question book from the fourth department and was preparing to draft the ticket. The Palace of Qinzheng submitted four inscriptions to the imperial court.
The so-called title book is the memorial book in the name of the official office, not in the name of the official.
After Tianqi read the test books, he threw the four test books on the ground on the spot.
