One-acre three-point land of the miracle doctor and peasant girl

Chapter 388

"What do you mean..." Shan Yucheng asked with a frown.

"Actually, the emperor understands in his heart that we only have 5 troops in our hands now, and he doesn't see it at all. What he wants is the military power of the tens of thousands of troops at the border..." Hong Xue said with a smile: "Now we Among the 4 people, except for the legitimate [-] left behind as private troops of the royal family to protect the state capital, we will dissolve the remaining [-] on the spot... Hurry up and make a note, let the imperial court send imperial envoys to supervise, and then we must Report the account statement and ask the emperor to send the money as well..."

"Silver?" Yu Yan's eyes lit up.

"Yes, our army has always been treated very well." Hongxue said earnestly: "Those who want to be discharged from the army must be given a pension, 60 taels for ordinary soldiers, and 20 taels for higher ranks, and 20 taels for those with military exploits." ... I roughly calculated that it would cost more than 300 million taels of silver... There are also 200 soldiers guarding the pass in the north. Let's pay the military salary until this month, and let the court pay it next month. Ordinary soldiers are paid for one and a half months Two taels of silver, half of taels will be added for each higher level, and we don’t prepare any food and winter clothes, it is estimated that we can get another [-] million or so..."

"Princess, didn't you kill our army?" Liu Guoliang quit.

"General Liu, our army has long been a thorn in the emperor's eyes, do you think it is still necessary?" Hongxue raised her eyebrows and asked.

"But……"

"Our army is just a name, if you become the leader of another army, why don't you quit?" Hongxue asked with a smile.

"What do you mean?" Liu Guoliang was momentarily confused.

"The idea of ​​the princess, I think it's really good..." Yu Yan had already reacted, and couldn't help but slapped the table to express his approval: "It's wonderful to take a drastic change from the bottom of the pot..."

"Can you stop playing charades?" Liu Guoliang quit, and his voice became louder.

"Father." Liu Zhuangzhi hastily called out to Liu Guoliang, who hadn't spoken before.

"What's wrong?" Liu Guoliang gave his son an angry look.

"My concubine means that the guards in the border towns are all pretending to surrender." Liu Zhuangzhi glanced at Hongxue and explained: "Afterwards, I will find a way to escape and return to serve under the lord. As for those who are disbanded, I believe the princess should have made arrangements, right?"

"Little General Liu is really smart..." Hongxue nodded in praise and said, "I also came up with the solution just now. I wanted to let the [-] disbanded soldiers go to Yangchun County. In the past, I trained to build a windbreak, and then I could help the common people reclaim wasteland or something...

And the soldiers guarding the border, after returning to the imperial court, will definitely be dispersed and incorporated into the imperial army. At that time, if you get sick, have an accident, run away, etc., just come back one after another..."

After a pause, "Also, didn't the lord ask for a stallion from Nanling? Well, as long as it is bred well, our army will be equipped with horses in the future, and a cavalry army will be established. I just thought of the name, and it will be called the Qingcai Army..."

Hongxue's idea came up, and as to whether or not to implement it or how to implement it, it was beyond her control. After two days of research with a group of advisers, Shan Yucheng finally finalized the final implementation plan, and calculated it in detail. The amount of silver required, as well as re-registering the names of all the soldiers, so that they can be documented when they return in the future.

However, it is easy to come up with these things, but it is much more complicated to operate in practice. Therefore, Shan Yucheng is almost busy running around the military camp every day without touching the ground.

In the palace, Shan Yu Wenhao leaned on the dragon chair in the study and was extremely tired. He thought that Shan Yucheng would be chased away, but now his army has also disbanded, and the military talisman is also placed on his dragon case now. He should be comfortable, but he didn't expect that there was money everywhere.

However, the thorn in my heart is gone, so I can spend some money, but what about other places?

The law and order in the capital city is unprecedentedly bad. There are reports every day in the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion. In addition, those state capitals in the northwest and southeast ask for money every day. Whatever post-disaster reconstruction, resettlement of victims... they all have to take care of themselves. The coffers were emptied.

What's more, Nanling seems to be starting to move around, and the border of Chi country is not smooth, some merchants are often robbed, and conflicts continue...

When there was Shan Yucheng's army guarding it, it seemed that there were not so many things going on?Why did everything come out as soon as his army withdrew?
Moreover, the Prince Cong faction and the King Cong faction are arguing, which annoys him even more. Could it be that he is too old to be the emperor now?
Thinking of this, Shan Yu Wenhao stood up again, walked back and forth in the study twice with his hands behind his back, and called Derui over.

"Your Majesty." Derry bowed respectfully and asked for instructions: "It's getting late, shouldn't it be time to rest? The Empress and Concubine De have sent people over to inquire several times..."

"Oh, don't mention them." Shan Yu Wenhao waved his hand irritably: "I'm resting in the imperial study today, let them all go back..."

Derui hurriedly turned to the door to convey Shan Yu Wenhao's meaning, and then returned.

"Derry, these years, you have been the only one who has not fought or snatched, but you are the most loyal..." Shan Yu Wenhao sighed and said, "Tell me, the crown prince or King Cong, who is more loyal to me?"

Derry's heart skipped a beat, and he thought, would he dare to answer such a question?Hastily smiled: "Oh, my majesty, Nian is now in his prime, not to mention that the two princes are your own sons, how can there be a son in the world who is not sincere to his father?"

But Shan Yu Wenhao shook his head and said, "You don't have to be afraid, just tell the truth..."

"Slaves are dedicated to serving the emperor, how can they look at court affairs?" De Rui hurriedly bent his body lower, and replied: "Besides, eunuchs and harems are not allowed to interfere in politics. Your Majesty, don't embarrass the old man." slave..."

He won't be unhappy by himself, these days, the emperor is far away from Dexiang, why?It's not because Dexiang took advantage of the queen, so he said good things to the prince everywhere, but the emperor's suspicion is not ordinary, and it is estimated that no one will make him believe it except himself.

Therefore, when Dexiang said that he didn't feel much about it once, but he always said that the prince is good every time, then there must be a problem. The emperor felt that the people around him were drawn by others, which he absolutely did not allow, so, recently These days, Texiang no longer has the opportunity to serve him closely, so he will not make such a mistake.
