Chapter 204
The days have to be passed day by day, and things have to be done one by one. Zhu Houzhao has not gone to the morning court for some days, and the court did not exceed Zhu Houzhao's expectations. , things seem to fade a lot.Lao Di and Xi Ni's approach seemed to have worked again, and the civil servants stopped attacking Qi You.

Although there are still sporadic attacks, they are no longer in the same posture as before.

Xungui's side is no longer attacking Liu Daxia, Shangshu of the Ministry of War. Everyone seems to have nothing happened, and slowly calms down.

On the contrary, it was Zhu Houzhao's side, the news of the martial arts academy quickly spread throughout the entire Ming Dynasty, and countless people began to gather towards the capital.These people were descendants of nobles from various places, or descendants of hereditary military generals. For a while, the whole city of Beijing became lively, and Zhu Houzhao didn't care about the affairs of the martial arts academy.

The Martial Academy was placed in Xiyuan by Zhu Houzhao. The environment there was good, and it was close to the imperial palace, so it was convenient for Zhu Houzhao to do things.

Although the Martial Arts Academy has been put on the agenda, everyone knows that this thing still has to be done slowly, and it is impossible to do it overnight.On the contrary, the date of the martial arts assessment has already been announced. Registration is now open, and the assessment will officially start two months later. After the assessment, you will enlist in the army. Many people think that this is the stage of entry and start preparing for the assessment of the martial arts academy.

It will take two months for the matter of the Martial Academy to really start, but the news of the expansion of the Black Dragon Army has already spread.

The news of the Black Dragon Army's commendation meeting and memorial service has been spreading for a long time. The generous rewards and good treatment made everyone excited, especially the soldiers of the Tengxiang Four Guards and the Beijing Camp. To 3 people, this is a remarkable thing!Under such circumstances, who would not want to join.

Forbidden City, East Palace, Xianyang Palace.

Wang Shouren looked at the establishment of the Black Dragon Army formulated by Zhu Houzhao, with a slightly exciting expression on his face, and looked at Zhu Houzhao with some hesitation: "Your Highness, this is 5 cavalry. If you count the auxiliary soldiers and other non-combat soldiers, it will be about [-] cavalry. There are [-] people, isn't this a bit expensive?"

The imperial court allocated money to the Black Dragon Army. Wang Shouren knew about it. It was a total of 100 million taels, but to train 100 cavalry, this 100 million taels is really a drop in the bucket. Not to mention the most expensive war horses, it is just the armor of [-] cavalrymen And Zhan Ma Dao, this is not a small sum!The [-] million taels given by the imperial court is far from enough!

"Don't worry about the money, I will figure out a way." Zhu Hou looked at Wang Shouren and said confidently in his heart.

In fact, Zhu Houzhao didn't expect money from the court at all. It would be better to have the 100 million taels, and it would be fine without Zhu Houzhao.He also knew that the 100 million taels was given for the face of the prince. After all, it was dominated by the prince, and His Majesty wanted to pay. Who would stand up and oppose it like a fool at this time.

Once this is done, it will not only offend His Majesty the emperor, but also the future emperor, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Under such circumstances, offending two emperors at once is not the way to die, so the 100 million taels is very happy, but Zhu Houzhao also knows that the 100 million taels is the limit. If there are too many, these ministers will come out to oppose it. You can give face, but you can't let it go further.

For the equipment of the [-] Black Dragon Army, Zhu Houzhao plans to use plate armor, which is low in cost, high in defense, and has many advantages.

"Come on, let's take a look at the weaving made by Ben Gong!" Zhu Houzhao smiled and pulled a wooden board. This is a picture drawn by Zhu Houzhao. It is very large and simple, and it follows an easy-to-understand routine.

At the top is the three thousand black dragon guards, Zhu Houzhao pointed to the black dragon guards and said: "these three thousand black guards are the personal guards of the palace, there are only three thousand, but they are the most brave existence, and they are also for the sake of other soldiers of the black dragon army. To motivate them. The treatment of the three thousand Black Dragon Guards is better than that of the Black Dragon Army, and the last elimination system is implemented."

Wang Shouren knew what the last elimination system meant. When the Black Dragon Army was still in Xiyuan, it was the last elimination system.

This Wang Shouren doesn't want to express his opinion. After all, this is the personal guard prepared by His Royal Highness. If you object, what do you want to do?Although in Wang Shouren's view, these [-] black dragon troops are actually the prince's personal guards.Wang Shouren also had to admire the current His Majesty, he really has a big heart, and he really trusts His Highness the Crown Prince.

"In addition to the three thousand Black Dragon Guards, I plan to divide the Black Dragon Army into three battalions!" Zhu Houzhao did not intend to discuss the issue of the Black Dragon Guards with Wang Shouren, because this matter can only be "listen to me".

The regiment battalion is the current organizational system of the Beijing battalion, and it is used directly, which is in line with the habits of soldiers and generals, and there is no need to start from scratch.The founder of the regiment battalion was Yu Qian. Since the Civil War, the three major battalions of the Beijing Army (Five Army, Three Thousand, and Shenji) have been completely lost.In Jingtaizhong, Yu Qian selected [-] elite soldiers from the three battalions, and divided them into ten battalions for intensive training, called regiment battalions.

Each battalion has 1 people, and Zhu Houzhao's Black Dragon Army has 3 people. It is divided into three battalions. Each battalion has 1 people. There is one commander and three deputy commanders. But the establishment is full.

Although the Ming Dynasty was called Qianhusuo, many of the Qianhusuo were not full of people. In addition to the lack of pay, the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled, a thousand households had five hundred soldiers capable of fighting, which would be great.Most of them are about three or four hundred. Although it seems that there are many soldiers, most of them are not good at fighting. Most of them are military households who are farming. To put it bluntly, they are farming.

The training and equipment are not up to standard, and it is useless to go to the battlefield except to lose the battle, and even turn around and run when facing dozens or hundreds of Japanese pirates, because these people are farmers.

Zhu Houzhao's Thousand Households Office is the real thing. With a Black Dragon Army establishment of 3 people, plus a Black Dragon Guard establishment of 3000 people, including non-combat soldiers such as auxiliary soldiers, the number of the entire Black Dragon Army has directly exceeded 5.What is this concept?Once this army is well trained, it is really invincible, and it can fight whoever it wants.

Of course, this is Wang Shouren's opinion. In Zhu Houzhao's view, this is not enough. He needs a huge cavalry of 20 people to sweep across the entire grassland.

Fight from Liaodong to Central Asia, and go north to Fenglangjuxu Mountain, and even further to Lake Baikal, all the way.Zhu Houzhao also wanted to grab rye seeds. During the Little Ice Age, rye was a very suitable crop. Even before the Little Ice Age, the fertile land in the Northeast!Thinking of the black land there, how could Zhu Houzhao hold back, he just wanted to say: "The forehead, the forehead, all the forehead!"
