Chongzhen discussed with the cabinet members again and again, and decided to send an additional 30,000 infantry troops from the remaining 120,000 recruits in the Beijing camp on the basis of the number of troops requested by Liu Hongji.

In fact, if it weren't for the defense of Zhang Xianzhong and Zuo Liangyu in the south, Chongzhen even wanted to send 100,000 troops, but was politely rejected by Li Banghua, the secretary of the Ministry of War.

Not to mention that the war in the south endangers the capital, if the battlefield is full of recruits with no experience in killing the enemy, as long as there is a collapse, the consequences will be one-sided.

There are not many soldiers, and only generals who have led soldiers can truly understand this truth.

The army did not move the grain and grass first, even if Liu Hong was in a hurry to take revenge, according to the plan of Li Banghua, the secretary of the military department, and Ni Yuanlu, the secretary of the household department, to send 50,000 troops, and it would take at least six or seven days to prepare equipment, grain and grass, cotton clothes, and baggage.

But where can Liu Hongjian wait so long, the Qiantun city is broken, and the Xuanliao defense line will directly face the invasion of tens of thousands of troops from Jianyu.

Although there are 120,000 veterans of the border army, it is more than 2,000 miles of the Great Wall defense line, even if the border army recruits another 150,000 new soldiers, but like the Beijing camp, they have not been trained for a long time.

Soldiers who have not experienced the test of life and death cannot be regarded as real soldiers, and it is simply a fool's dream for them to guard the Great Wall and fight against the ferocious and ruthless Jianyu.

The most critical part of the problem is that there is no war horse, which is too passive, and the ghost knows which three places to start from in three ways, and it is too late to urgently deploy troops at a critical moment.

According to Huang Degong's recital, Jianyu seems to have a good understanding of the border army's deployment situation, and it seems that he can directly find the weak points of the border army's defense.

But Liu Hongjian didn't care much about this, if the problem really was Zhu Chunchen, now that he was in prison, the others could only count on Huang De's function to act cautiously.

Liu Hongjian explained his worries to Chongzhen, and suggested that he lead the 3,000 battalion and the Shenji battalion to take only three days of dry food and ride on horseback, and the rest of the baggage, grain and grass followed the infantry army.

Otherwise, Mo said that he would have to prepare for another six or seven days, that is, the marching speed of the infantry army, and if he wanted to reach the border town, he would have to walk for six or seven days, which was really fatal.

Rao is like this, the whole cavalry is still two days later, the 23,000 battalion cavalry is okay, after all, they are veterans, not to mention the 2,000 people in the Qianhu Camp, the problem is the musketeers of the Shenji Battalion.

They are not only new soldiers, but most of them have no experience in horseback riding, and even if they are taught by veterans in two days, they can only master the initial riding skills, more than 27,000 war horses, which has squeezed out the mobile strength of the Beijing camp.

Counting the more than 2,000 people in the Thousand Households of Banzai Mountain, a total of more than 7,000 musketeers, each person must be issued at least 30 rounds of paper shells, that is, 200,000 rounds, which is also a problem for the Ordnance Institute.

And this is only enough to support one or two battles, and the supply line of ammunition will stretch from the capital all the way to the border pass.

But this is a problem that cannot be helped, before the development of the next generation of bullets, Liu Hongjian did not intend to hand over the technology of the firing pistol and paper shell to the Ministry of Industry, there are many people, and the cutting-edge technology must be strictly blocked in the ordnance institute.

Chongzhen and the ministers discussed the matter again, and finally Chongzhen finally nodded.

The 3,000 Battalion, the Shenji Battalion, and the Banzai Mountain Thousand Households are scheduled to set out on 29 February to build a captive.

After everything was worked out, when Liu Hong gradually came out of the warm pavilion again, it was already dark.

"An Guohou, please stay!" There was shouting from behind.

"Huh? What is the matter with Grandpa Li? Liu Hong gradually turned his head and saw that it was Li Yunkui, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

The first time Chongzhen reprimanded him last time, it was because of this Li Yunkui.

Later, he specially ordered Jinyiwei to investigate this Li Yunkui and found that this old thing was really a cow.

Since he was a child, he entered the palace as a small yellow gate, successively served as a supervisor, a young eunuch, and then a seal of the silk and a palm seal, and set up a supervisor palm seal, and an internal official supervisor palm seal, until a few days ago he was promoted to the palm seal of the ceremonial supervisor and the commander of the East Factory.

From entering the palace at the age of eight to be a little yellow door for cleaning, to now becoming the boss of the ceremonial supervisor palm seal, the supervisor of the East Factory, and the peak of the eunuch life, Li Yunkui has spent 40 years.

In the past 40 years, he has served Zheng Guifei, Li Guifei, Empress Zhang Yan of Yi'an, and finally Empress Zhou of today's Long Live Lord.

He survived Chen Ju, Wang An, Wei Zhongxian, Cao Huachun, and now Wang Chengen.

Liu Hong gradually looked at this guy's resume and felt that his teeth hurt, this special N, it is a stone in the toilet.

"Master Hou, I heard that when you went to Grandpa Guo's house to get people, you killed a lot of people?" Li Yunkui's tone was not as yin and yang as just now, and it was even quite 'kind'.

"So what? What's the matter with you? Liu Hong gradually couldn't figure out the details of this guy, but he didn't care.

"Master Hou don't want to be like this, the old slave has offended a lot before, and I hope that Lord Hou has a lot, and if he can forgive, he will be forgiven."

Li Yunkui was almost choked to death by Liu Hongji's words, but he still held back, and even lowered his posture and said.

If Li Yunkui were asked to sum up his experience in the industry over the past 40 years, and how to go from a small yellow door to the palm seal of the celebrant supervisor, he would probably tell you two words: forbearance.

"Well, one by one, farewell!" Liu Hong's heart is now full of border passes, border troops, and Jianyu, how can he have the heart to talk to this dead eunuch with a crooked belly, and then leave after speaking.

"Master Hou, don't worry, we haven't finished talking yet!" Rao is Li Yunkui has a good temper, he has lived for nearly fifty years, and he has never seen such a rude person who does not play according to the routine.

Although you are the Hou Ye, he is the master of ceremonies and the commander of the East Factory, no one is bad?

Mo said that the supervisor of the East Factory can supervise the officials of the whole world, and only the post of the master of ceremonies is above 10,000 people under one person.

If the first assistant of the cabinet is the foreign minister, then the palm seal of the celebrant who holds the power of wearing red is the internal minister, and without his cooperation, the cabinet cannot even be presented to the emperor at all.

But all this changed from the moment Anguohou arrived.

Although the current cabinet chief assistant is Zheng Sanjun, the decision-making power has been transferred to Chongzhen and An Guohou, and the current cabinet has only become an executive body, and the papier-mâché cabinet is the courtier's satire of the current cabinet.

Li Yunkui's idea is very simple, and now that he is sitting in the position of internal minister, he also wants to be like Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao, An Guohou and Wang Chengen, one outside and one inside, to create a new policy for the Ming Dynasty and leave a name in history.

For this reason, he can ignore all the previous festivals, and even give up Zhu Chunchen, the person who once helped him, for this reason.

"If you have something to say, let it go!" Where did Liu Hongjian know that he had so many thoughts, this old miscellaneous hair, noisy!

"Lord Hou, Wang Chengen's father-in-law is gone, but this palace still has to operate, this Ming Dynasty still has to prosper, long live Lord has high hopes for you and me.

For this reason, our family can put down the previous festival, and hope that the Hou Ye will also treat the prince like a prince, and work with our family for the long live Lord! ”

Li Yunkui said politely on the surface, but his meaning was also obvious, now the palace is under his control, and the inspectors are also under his control.

You An Guohou are going to the border to fight again, and there is no cooperation from Li Yunkui in this court...... Hehe!

His requirements are not high, treat him as well as Wang Chengen!

"You? Unworthy! ”

PS: Friendship pushes a book: "The Dusk Jun of the Great Zhou" In the first year of Tai'an of the Great Zhou, the beggar Zhang Lingyang ascended to the sky in one step and became the emperor of the Great Zhou.

Greedy women, believing slander, favoring ministers, using eunuchs, raiding the family of ministers, and exterminating the clan at worst, making the 'people' resentment boiling, and the world criticizes...... If you like it, you can read it.
