The Royal Guards Regiment has two battalions, four Guards Regiments, three each in the First Regiment and the Second Battalion. The army hoarded in Linqing had as many as twelve battalions.

Zhu Cihong's army has about 2,000 soldiers and horses in a battalion, and the 12th battalion gathers here, with 24,000 people.

The management and transfer of 30,000 people is an extremely challenging matter, and it is said that as the commander of the army, Zhu Cihong will be very busy, and he will not have the leisure to wander around the city.

But Zhu Cihong understands the tragedy of Emperor Taizu better. The attempt to concentrate all power in the hands is itself a wrong management concept, and the abolition of the prime minister has broken the head of a well-established bureaucracy, so that in the end, there is a black and white cabinet in the middle.

Zhu Cihong's establishment of a military affairs system and the construction of a military affairs system at the corps, regiment, and battalion levels is, of course, to build a perfect military civilian system, so as to free Zhu Cihong from complicated affairs. At this time, Zhu Cihong only needs to grasp the overall situation, maintain and improve the military affairs reminder, and maintain the personnel system of the whole army to control a large army, instead of knowing unnecessary details.

In this regard, Yang Wenyue played an outstanding role as the chief military adviser of the Military Affairs Department, and Si Qi played an outstanding role as the executive military adviser of the Military Affairs Department.

Feeling this, Zhang Zhen quietly rushed over and gently handed a copy of the report to Zhu Cihong: "Your Highness, Jiannu is expected to arrive in Linqing tomorrow." ”

After listening to this, Zhu Cihong decided to confirm all the preparations before the war. He called Yan Wei and asked, "How is Lin Qingjian Qingbi Ye going?" ”

When Yan Wei heard this, he immediately said, "Your Highness." At this time, it was started a month and a half ago, and all the counties around Linqing had already conveyed the order, and the people in the vicinity had organized the transfer of 69,179 households to the nearby county towns and fortresses. Merely. The movement of Jinan Mansion was a little slow, and many wealthy families were worried that the fields would be invaded, so they were only willing to stick to the dock fort and were unwilling to enter the city. ”

"Has the grain from all over Jinan gathered into the city? Is the question of food enough? Zhu Cihong asked again. One of the key points of Jianqing Bino is to prevent the enemy from forcibly stealing food from the map and maintain the battle. Zhu Cihong built Linqing New City, and its practical building materials were not expensive. On the contrary, Zhu Cihong consumed a huge amount of money on requisitioning grain and rice.

Thanks to the fact that it is Zhao Shiyao, the proprietress of Hengxin Commercial Bank, who is presiding over this matter, if there is another person, Zhu Cihong will have to worry about the unnecessary loss of it. Rao is like this, Zhu Cihong hoarded 400,000 stones of grain and rice and still consumed 830,000 taels.

Among them, the manpower and material resources consumed are innumerable.

"The grain stocks in the county government warehouses and the grain merchants' warehouses have all been requisitioned and purchased into Linqing and Jinan." Yan Wei's face was heavy: "But there are many big landlords in Shandong, and when thieves ravaged Henan, many landlords built dock forts, cultivated land in peacetime, and entered dock forts for protection in wartime. After hearing about it, Shandong also built it one after another. Yes, in the countryside. The collection of grain in those Wubao villages was quite difficult. ”

Seeing this, Zhu Cihong did not have a pessimistic expression, but called Si Qi, the executive military adviser of the Military Affairs Department: "After the Qiming City Workshop started production at full capacity, didn't it give the whole army a round of equipment?" I remember asking the Department of Military Affairs to find a home for these armor knives and guns that had been replaced and obsolete. Moreover, there is a military advisor called ...... Called...... Xu Wen? I heard that he volunteered to take this errand, saying that he had found a lot of homes in Hebei, Shandong, what happened? ”

"The subordinates were negligent and did not ask in time. Some time ago, he was out of the city and busy. Yesterday at night, I rushed back in the starry night. The subordinates looked tired, so they didn't ask much. Si Qi heard this. Suddenly there was a burst of surprise and embarrassment: "My subordinates will send someone to call him over." ”

After speaking, Si Qi found a guard to call Xu Wen.

Taking advantage of this gap, Si Qi introduced this Xu Wen to avoid embarrassing the atmosphere on the field: "This Xu Wen went from Beijing to Dezhou with the military martial arts school, and finally went south to settle down here in Linqing." Last time, His Royal Highness disposed of the governor of Texas, and went to appease the military academy in person. The atmosphere of the military academy settled down. After that, Xu Wen was the most active and the most intelligent in learning general affairs. Therefore, his subordinates recruited him into the Military Affairs Department, and he volunteered to eliminate the next family of soldiers. ”

In fact, the stability of the military academy is also a matter of whether it is big or small.

Zhu Cihong's words in Beijing were excited. said that he wanted to resist the Jiannu invasion, which made everyone's hearts surge, and under the encouragement, hundreds of people in the Jingshi followed out of the city regardless of the future, and boarded the ship all the way from Tongzhou, intending to follow Zhu Cihong.

But then Zhu Cihong led the army to Cangzhou alone, although the siege of Linqing was relieved in the first war, but it was not known by these scholars in Tongzhou. Later, it was reported that Zhang Biyuan, the deputy envoy of the military garrison, returned with more than 100 Jurchen heads and other Qing army heads.

In this way, when these people were surrounded by the Qing army in Texas again, how hesitant and disappointed they were, and how confused they were about the future can be imagined.

In this case, the family of the scholar who chased after him can bring it back with a little relief, not to mention the Texas Zhizhou to add fuel to the fire?

But as soon as Zhu Cihong left, the situation suddenly reversed.

Zhu Cihong did very little in the past, in fact, he briefly introduced the battle situation in Hejian Mansion. talked about Zhao Ting's emotions when he died in battle, and said that he built the Beijing Temple, and the pride of the old man when he bowed down. It's easy to set things right,

At this time, the scholars who knew about Zhang Biyuan's evil deeds were immediately filled with righteous indignation, saying that they would follow Zhu Cihong, the prince who really resisted the Qing Dynasty, to join the army. Next, it will be very easy to teach these scholars in the curriculum of the military academy.

In this era, the talent in a county is only in the double digits, and the number of people in the promotion is one of the best. In other words, every Jinshi is almost the top student in the provincial college entrance examination in later generations. Juren is the champion of the college entrance examination at the prefecture-level city level, and Xiucai is the champion of the college entrance examination at the county level.

And Zhu Cihong here, the Jinshi have all gone to be officials, obviously not. But a rough calculation shows that there are eighty-nine lifters, hundreds of talents who have not been counted clearly for a while.

Such a person entered Zhu Cihong's shogunate, even though he couldn't recognize the world in Zhu Cihong's chest for a while because of the old knowledge system. But when their talents were not used in the imperial examination, but in practice, not in intrigue, but in unity, the power that erupted was enough to make people marvel.

It is precisely because of this that Zhu Cihong can easily control a military force of 30,000 people.

is also official, Zhu Cihong has the confidence to fight the most vicious, brutal, and powerful enemy of the empire! (To be continued.) )
