"It's better to ...... Let's open five-five! "Last year's bloody suppression of the nobles, Chongzhen now feels that he is actually a little unbearable.

"No, Your Majesty, the most urgent thing at the moment is the training of middle-level generals in the army, and the nobles are up to three hundred...... Five hundred! Liu Hong gradually thought for a while and said.

There are about 180,000 imperial relatives in the Ming Dynasty, although all of them were punished by Chongzhen and retracted the iron coupons, but there are still as many as 100,000 who have been demoted to the common people at the lowest level.

That's a huge number! China has been up and down for 5,000 years, and it is such a wonderful thing that the Ming Dynasty has exhausted itself to death and dragged itself down.

What's the use of keeping them? If you can fight, continue to grab the land, otherwise go home and nibble sweet potatoes!

"At most, half a year, when the martial arts hall is fully equipped, it can be expanded by another thousand, and then it can be opened in five or five." Seeing that Chongzhen was a little hesitant, Liu Hongjian said.

"There's one more question, Your Majesty." Liu Hong gradually glanced at Chongzhen, because what he was going to say next might make the uncle mutter.

"What?" Chongzhen asked.

Wang Erxi, the celebrant who was waiting on the side, brought over a bowl of black medicinal soup, it was time for Chongzhen to drink the medicine.

"Have you considered the vassal king?" Liu Hong gradually whispered.

Liu Honggradually didn't want to mention this question, but he had to mention it, as except for the emperor, the vassal kings were treated the highest, but they were even worse than the honorable.

It's not that the vassal kings didn't want to be loyal to the country, but even if they did, there was no way.

Since Chengzu Zhu was ruthless, all the vassal kings in various places have become pigs in captivity in the imperial court, and they cannot take the imperial examination, join the army, or even go out of the domain.

A little bit of inaction, except for the baby rolling the sheets.

"Vassal King!" Chongzhen's eyes immediately flashed with a hint of fierceness.

"What does Youming want?" Chongzhen also put down the medicine bowl he picked up, if he didn't know that Liu Hongjian would not harm him, Chongzhen would have gone crazy on the spot.

"In the three hundred years of our Ming Dynasty, the vassal kings have all contributed nothing to the Ming Dynasty, and they have dragged down the burden of the court, and the ministers think that it is not that they do not want to serve the court, but that the court has blocked their way.

The ministers also know the emperor's considerations, but the times are different, if you are worried about rebellion, then the generals in charge of the army everywhere have this suspicion, why just suppress the vassal kings? ”

The Daming clan experienced a full demotion, and the prince demoted the county king and the county king to the general of the town country......

Before the demotion, there were 28 princes in the Ming Dynasty, and nearly 200 county kings, which means that there are still more than 20 county kings.

He thought further, knowing that if the industry of the Ming Dynasty took off in time, there would inevitably be more resources and more dumping places for commodities, just as the primitive accumulation of European capitalism in later generations would be.

Da Ming also needs to take this road, and no one can avoid it.

If you really go around grabbing territory in the future, these territories will definitely need someone to garrison them, so the question is, are the generals of the army really more reliable than the vassal kings and will never rebel?

The answer is obvious.

In this case, why not use the clan relatives, they have the blood of the Zhu family flowing in their bodies, and they have a natural sense of belonging to the Ming Dynasty.

And at that time, the feudal king went overseas to become a feudal lord, and he was able to vacate the huge feudal land in the country for the people to cultivate.

Wouldn't it be safer for the imperial court in this way?

The explanation was as fierce as a tiger, and Chongzhen was a little dizzy, he didn't know what a colony was, and he didn't know what capital accumulation and commodity dumping were.

But there is one thing he listened to, yes, when that day comes, if all the vassal kings are sealed to the place that belongs to the Ming Dynasty, why not do it?

"By the way, Your Majesty, I'll show you something fun!" Seeing that Chongzhen was deep in thought, Liu Hongjian didn't force it, after all, he was just an opinion, and as for how to do it, it had nothing to do with him.

Liu Hong gradually took out two small objects from his waist, opened one of them and handed it to Chongzhen, while he took the other one and walked out of the hall.

"Youming, are you going to Gong Gong?" Chongzhen was holding a strange gadget in his hand and hadn't figured it out yet, but when he saw Liu Hong gradually getting up and walking out, he thought that Liu Hong was getting urgent.

"Your Majesty, wait a minute, don't be scared later!" Liu Hong gradually rejoiced in his heart, and after walking out of the main hall, he continued to walk out for twenty or thirty steps, and turned on the walkie-talkie.

This thing was given by the Academic Affairs Office for emergency use when I was working as a librarian in the medical school library.

Because charging is not very convenient, for more than a year, except for the occasional use of his mobile phone, the pair of walkie-talkies has been forgotten by him in the ring.

I found out a few days ago when I was sorting out a large pile of books in order to write physics, chemistry and other textbooks for the College of Engineering.

"Your Majesty, do you hear that? Hear it, answer, over! After Liu Hong gradually turned on the walkie-talkie, he brought the walkie-talkie to his ear, and vaguely heard the sound of sizzling and cheering, so he tried to speak into the walkie-talkie.

"Ah——!!!h There was an exclamation from the other end, and it was obvious that Chongzhen was taken aback.

"Your Majesty, did you hear what the minister said? Hear a reply! Liu Hong gradually repeated.

"Yes...... Is it Youming? You...... How did your voice come from here? Chongzhen was really frightened, and he put the walkie-talkie on the table and didn't dare to pick it up again.

After speaking, he got up in disbelief and walked out of the hall to find Liu Hongji.

"What is this? Where did it come from? How is it so weird! The two returned to the main hall, and Chongzhen was shocked and immediately began to ask a series of questions.

"Hehe, the ancestor gave it." Liu Hong gradually thought of his rhetoric.

He can't say that he is not from this era, otherwise he is worried about scaring this uncle, so he can only talk about Zhu Chongba, after all, people at this time still believe in ghosts and gods.

The reason why Liu Hongjian took out the walkie-talkie to talk about things was to let Chongzhen settle down, and the ancient emperor was worried that the generals in various places would support the army and plot a rebellion, largely because of the inconvenience of news transmission.

If there is a way to transmit military orders in real time in the future, this problem can be solved to a large extent.

Nowadays, although it is impossible to build a mobile phone or walkie-talkie and other anti-natural communication tools, it seems that the most primitive telegraph is still promising, and this thing seems to be mentioned in the technical books he brought.

"What Youming said, I will think about it again, but there should be no problem." Chongzhen pondered for a moment.

Although Liu Hong gradually explained to Chongzhen what a walkie-talkie is and what a radio is, he is a layman himself, and how can Chongzhen understand it.

He just thought that if he could really seal the vassal kings to a land that did not belong to the Ming Dynasty, it would be enough.

As for letting these descendants of the clan learn some military skills, it is also necessary to ask for assistance from the imperial court twice in three days.

"I always heard Fan Aiqing of the Ministry of Industry say that the pavilions and pavilions you built in the West Mountain are beautiful, and I am a little tired of staying in this palace, in a few days, I want to go and take a look, Youming, you can prepare."

After discussing various matters, Chongzhen picked up the decoction that had been cold and drank it all.

"This is not a problem at all, Your Majesty, the minister will retire first?" Liu Hong gradually got up and planned to flash people, Xishan was still stepping up the final construction, and he needed to make decisions on many things.

"Well, what kind of walkie-talkie is this, let's stay here, if I have anything to do, I don't need to send a message to anyone." Chongzhen glanced at the walkie-talkie in Liu Hongji's hand.

PS: Stay up late and add more, the conscience of the industry is woody, and the reward has accumulated enough to make a change, and when the cold comes slowly, the cold will pay off the debt.
