I, the Ming Dynasty, can still save me

Chapter 41: There are so many talents?
Zhu Youxiao went out for a while, and after much deliberation, he felt that there was currently no suitable candidate, so he could only use it like this for now and make plans later.

Returning to the Nuan Pavilion of Qianqing Palace, the brazier and kang in the room were already burning. The servant immediately took the cold Nuan Pozi from Zhu Youxiao's hand and handed it over to another one, for fear that Zhu Youxiao would catch a cold.Compared with the outside, the room is bright, warm and comfortable, and sleeping in it is simply a beautiful thing in the world.

In winter, the house is warm but dry, so I ask the person next to me to pour a cup of tea to quench my thirst.After handing it over, he took a sip gently.

"Cough...cough, why is it so hot!"

In the past, it was Wang An who served Zhu Youxiao. He was the most attentive and attentive to Zhu Youxiao's food and daily life, and he always prepared tea and food every time.

He just felt unwell and went to rest, otherwise he would have scolded these dog slaves for being so careless when he saw this.

The little eunuch who handed the tea turned pale with fright and was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and knelt down and said: "My slave deserves to die, my slave deserves to die, please forgive me!"

"Forget it, forget it, from now on the tea water will be [-]% hot. Just get flat!"

"Please remember this, I will pay attention to it in the future. Thank you for your forgiveness, Your Majesty."

At this moment, Zhu Youxiao suddenly understood what it means to be a new person, not as good as a new person. People and things that you are used to and comfortable with are more valuable than knowing each other.

The serving young eunuch had already prepared the title book for the list of Jinshi in the 47th year of Wanli.When Zhu Youxiao got to the bed and was waiting for him to be wrapped in a soft gold quilt, he handed the folding book to Zhu Youxiao smoothly.

Zhu Youxiao took it over, opened it and read it carefully.It doesn't matter if you don't read it, I was surprised to find that there are several familiar historical celebrities in it.

During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the list of Jinshi was divided into the top three.

Only three people will be selected from the first class, the number one scholar, the second best candidate, and the third best. The first class will be awarded the Jinshi and the rank; the second class will take a certain number and be given a Jinshi background; the third class will take a certain number and be given the same Jinshi background.

There are three people in the first class, Zhuang Jichang, Kong Zhenyun and Chen Zizhuang.What impressed Zhu Youxiao was Chen Zizhuang, who was determined to resist the Qing Dynasty in later generations and was one of the "Three Loyalists of Lingnan".Later generations also visited his memorial hall in Guangzhou.

There are 64 people in Erjia. At a glance, there is one person whom I have heard of in later generations.Ma Shiying?Isn't this a treacherous minister from the Hongguang Dynasty of the Southern Ming Dynasty? It's just that this treacherous minister also had integrity, resisted the Qing Dynasty many times, and finally died unyielding.

There were 270 people in the top three. Due to the large number of names, he only briefly glanced at the list, and there were two names that stood out to him.

Yuan Chonghuan and Sun Chuanting were both Jinshi in Wanli 47th year!
Needless to say, Yuan Chonghuan was highly controversial in later generations.Yuan Chonghuan was undoubtedly capable. He had gathered a number of good generals under his command. Ningyuan was under Houjin's control. Although the restoration of Liaoning in five years was empty talk, his presence in Liaodong was indeed effective.Having achieved the Ningyuan and Ningjin victories, he still has some abilities.

As for Sun Chuanting, he was also like thunder.His "passing the court's death will lead to the death of the Ming Dynasty." Later generations admired and praised his integrity.

Historically, this person was indeed an all-rounder, with strategic awareness, courage to take on tasks, and the ability to provide sufficient troops and food under limited mobilization.

When using troops in the late Ming Dynasty, the most important thing was food and pay. Sun Chuanting was governor of Shaanxi. When he first took office, Xi'an's four guards could not gather 1200 soldiers to guard the city gates. So he appointed Qing military officials at all levels, such as clearing the source of troops and The censor of the field strictly supervises the implementation.

The local farmland had long been divided up by landlords and noble officials, but he was not afraid, attacked the powerful, and thoroughly investigated the phenomenon of private occupation of farmland and empty pay.

In the end, 9338 battalion soldiers and 2517 maintenance engineers were cleared, and they were divided into camps for training.

Previously, Xi'an's four guards could not pay for the 1200 troops directly under the governor's jurisdiction. After he cleared the army, Qingtian, and the three guards cleared out 145242 taels of silver, and the right guard cleared out 13556 shi of wheat beans, which was enough to pay for [-] combat troops. .

"Gold is abundant in money, and grain is abundant in crops. At present, it can support the army's prosperity and prosperity, and in the future, it can formulate long-term plans for prosperity and strength."

"The army's rations must gradually return to their original amount, so that they can gradually regain the prosperity of the previous dynasty." When Zhu Youxiao saw it in later generations, he deeply agreed. Only with money can we have strong soldiers. How can soldiers fight if they don't have enough to eat?

The important thing is that he dared to be cruel to the gentry and landlords.And now Gyeonggi’s farmland needs people who dare to fight against the powerful.

Thinking of this, he drew a circle on the names of Yuan Chonghuan and Sun Chuanting.

With this surprise discovery, his interest increased greatly, so he asked the serving eunuch to bring over the list of Jinshi in the last term, that is, in the 44th year of Wanli.

Since the years were similar, it was easy to look up, and the list was quickly delivered to Zhu Youxiao.After flipping through it, I found a person I was familiar with, Hong Chengchou.

Although he surrendered to Huang Taiji in later generations, he defeated Li Zicheng many times. Although the Battle of Songjin failed, he was defeated because he was tricked by Emperor Chongzhen. He is still very capable.

So Zhu Youxiao drew a circle on Hong Chengchou's name.

The discovery of these three people also excited Zhu Youxiao. Since they have been Jinshi in recent years, others such as Lu Xiangsheng are expected to win the imperial examination in the near future.

He also lamented that Zhu Youxiao's start was indeed thousands of times better than that of Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian. At least the cards in his hand were good ones!

The situation in Liaodong has not yet collapsed, the war in the southwest has not yet started, and his internal funds are still abundant.Although there are party disputes in the imperial court now, there are still many capable people, all of whom are enterprising and want to reform.

The imperial court also had such outstanding reserve talents as Yuan Chonghuan, Sun Chuanting, Hong Chengchou, and Lu Xiangsheng, which really inspired and determined the path Zhu Youxiao would take in the future.These are people who have experienced hundreds of battles and have survived the storm. As long as you use these people correctly, there is no need to worry about not being able to save the Ming Dynasty!
But he is not prepared to reuse all three of them now, and it is not advisable to encourage them.It would be better to let them develop according to the historical trajectory first.When you think of a perfect use, it's not too late to promote him.

There was only one exception, and that person was Sun Chuanting.

Nowadays, if we want to farm in Gyeonggi, some military camps must be cleared to make available land, which will definitely offend the interests of local landowners and nobles.

Sun Chuanting also did this in Shaanxi, but now that he has just entered officialdom, I don't know if he has the courage.

But how can you know without giving it a try?

After thinking about it, he asked someone to put away the list of Jinshi.

He had a lot to do today, which also gave him a lot of troubles.But at least many things were done as planned and achieved remarkable results.

Wei Zhongxian achieved remarkable results in recovering the stolen goods. Zheng Yangxing and the Wei Dynasty paid nearly 130 million taels of dirty silver.It can just make up for the cost of consoling Liaodong this time.

In the future, there will be Chen Linquan, Chen Bangyan and Chen Yongshou, as well as other illicit funds in the palace that have not yet been recovered. The future is promising.

As for Wei Zhongxian, Wang Boyu and others suggested training the Four Guards Warriors Battalion. He was more concerned about selecting some talents he trusted from the Four Guards Warriors Battalion.

Therefore, the number of people he requires is very small, and they must be smart, capable, and literate people.If there are people who are really talented and hard-working, it is not impossible to use them as generals in the future.
