The problem of remaining officials has been properly resolved. Whether it is the remaining officials in Beijing or the remaining officials in the occupied areas, they are now more fulfilling under half of the Ming Dynasty than before.

The remaining officials should have been miserable and miserable in 1644, but on the contrary, their lives were full of sunshine! The remaining officials did not rely on them when they first arrived in Nanjing, but not long after, the beloved emperor remembered these loyal ministers. Although most people could not continue to be officials, the emperor had painstakingly arranged a stage of one kind or another! Dear officials, the sea is wide and the fish is leaping, and the sky is high and the birds are flying! The remaining officials finally realized that Nanjing is a vast world and has great achievements, so they all showed their ambitions.

If you can't go into politics, you can do business, if you can't go into business, if you can't go into politics, business, you can't go into politics, business, you can scold the streets, and even scold the streets and have status and income! - It's just that readers of the campaign column of Ming Pao are very trending to catch up with the Legend of the Condor Heroes. "Scolding" - or "critics" often claim to be "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and candidates attacked and abused by these "critics" are also compared to "big eagles" and can also be satisfied.

The remaining officials show their magical powers in this way: all the fighters among the remaining officials were recruited into the campaign team, and those with wide relations also joined the campaign team. Even eunuchs like Ruan Dacheng were also held by Chen Yanpeng. With the support of the rich man from Jiangnan, the treatment of the campaign team is much higher than being an official. If you are not aggressive, it doesn’t matter. If you have money, you can also choose to make a fortune in silence, such as investing in the three major joint-stock companies of China, Yaohua, and Zhenhua. Later, Tsinghua, Guanghua is not bad. If you have nothing, go to the Royal Club like Guang Shiheng - attracting investment, which is more affordable. After successful investment, you will get a commission of 2%. Don’t underestimate it, it’s very considerable!

When Chongzhen first arrived in Nanjing, he also went to court every day. Now, he used the excuse of being busy with military affairs, so he changed it to every five days, just like a weekly office meeting in later generations. One day, it would be enough to listen to the ministers quarrel in the court. Isn’t it just those things to read memorials on weekdays?

The Military Affairs Office also has four regular meetings every month. This regular meeting invited all the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet and the Six Ministers of the Ministry of War. Shi Kefa also served as the Minister of War, the Minister of Rites, the Minister of Personnel, the Minister of Personnel, the Minister of Works, the Minister of Works, the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Revenue, the Minister of Revenue, the King of Ding and Yong, and Wang Chengen, to participate in the meeting. As usual, Liu Jiyun spoke first. Liu Jiyun was responsible for the daily training of 3,000 recruits during this period, and reported:

"First of all, I reported to the emperor about the training of the three thousand new recruits. The three thousand new recruits were trained by 150 guards personally trained by the emperor, and the old led the new. The queue training has come to an end for the time being. These recruits are honest and obedient, but more than half of them can't tell the difference between the left and right front and back. At the beginning, there was a lot of jokes. Some people gradually understood after eating a lot of military sticks. Therefore, the queue training is slow and there is no way. Some new recruits don't have a memory even if they get military sticks, so the queue training is really not fast. So far, the training has been trained

After practicing for thirty-two days, in addition to the occasional mistakes among others, it is generally quite neat. As for the daily weight-bearing cross-country training, these recruits are quite hard-working, and there is a meal of pork stewed vermicelli the next day. The recruits' physical and endurance are pretty good, and the weight-bearing cross-country is done well. At the beginning of the shooting training, only because there are only 300 rifles, they can only train shooting in turn, but they don't know when they can be equipped with 1,000 rifles. If three people have a gun, the training will be easy to arrange, otherwise the shooting training plan will be difficult to complete."

Chongzhen copied the principle of selecting soldiers in Qi Jiguang and Zeng Guofan. The principle of recruiting new recruits is to recruit only honest and strong peasants in the countryside to serve as soldiers, and never use soldiers or rogues in the market. Military discipline is the first, and those who cheat will only corrupt discipline, so even those who cheat are skilled in martial arts are not considered in recruiting new recruits. Because the recruits are honest peasants, there are many sluggish people, so they have to train military sticks. Some new recruits have not been given military sticks. Even so, they still forget the front, back and left and right from time to time. However, the iron concept of discipline has penetrated into the bone marrow of these new recruits. Some people make mistakes occasionally, which is not a big problem. The military sticks will naturally make him go back.

Long memory. It is worth affirming that these new recruits have been able to implement orders and Chongzhen is satisfied. Funnyly, after being a nutritious meal in the military camp, this pork stewed vermicelli became popular on the market. Wang Chengen simply copied the famous snack in Nanjing, the later generations of Nanjing, "Duck Blood Vermicelli Soup". Therefore, "Pork stewed vermicelli" and "Duck Blood Vermicelli Soup" have become a must-have for banquets, especially for foreign tourists to taste it. There are more and more workshops here to buy sweet potatoes from Fujian to make sweet potato vermicelli, and more and more short-term training class members have been more enthusiastic about promoting the planting of sweet potatoes after eating pork stewed vermicelli.

Chongzhen asked Fang Yizhi: "Mr. Fang, how many rifles have you made now?"

Fang Yizhi replied, "Return to the emperor, the total number of rifles was made. Two hundred were made in the first month and six hundred were made in the second month. Since the crucible steel was made into high-carbon steel, and now the converter steel was made into high-carbon steel, the twist drill bit was made of high-carbon steel, and then drilled with a lathe, 100 barrels can be made every day, and 3,000 rifles can be made in a month."

Yongwang said: "The lathes that Master Fang wants can be made in ten days. In August, drilling machines and punching machines can be made. The first boring machine will be made in September. With these, Master Fang will only make a faster rifle! After September, you can use boring machines to make gun barrels, and cannons can be made continuously."

Chongzhen looked at King Ding, and saw that King Ding had no intention of expressing it, so he had to name:

"Ci Jiong, tell me about the progress of steelmaking. How will it help in the production of guns and cannons?"

King Ding was thinking about technical problems, and suddenly he was asked by his father and said:

"My son is stupid, and there are still many problems in converter steelmaking, which are being improved. In addition, the trial production of seamless steel pipes has been made into corresponding machines, but I don't know when it will be successful. If it is successful, a gun barrel such as a small cannon may be used. According to Eunuch Wang, after the machine is opened, the seamless pipe can be continuously produced, and the barrel will not be a problem."

Seeing that King Ding talked about himself, Wang Chengen said: "The trial production of seamless steel pipes should be obvious in September. If seamless steel pipes are successfully made, it will be much easier to make guns and cannons. As long as there is iron, steel can be made, and seamless steel pipes can be continuously produced from energy sources. The guns and cannons can be said to produce as much as they want. Of course, this requires money. As long as you have money, everything is not a problem."

When Zhang Shenyan heard about the money, he hurriedly said, "Go back to the emperor, since the court moved to Nanjing, money has to be used everywhere, especially the money and grain consumption of several major military towns, it requires three million taels of silver. The Ministry of Revenue really cannot afford to make guns and artillery. Now, guns and artillery are used to make guns and artillery. I also ask the emperor to get a charter for this matter."

Zhang Huangyan said in the interface:

"I heard from the emperor that I believe that the three divisions of Zuo Liangyu, Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo should be eliminated. The old and weak should be eliminated. The troops of Zuo Liangyu can be reduced to less than 80,000 people. Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo can be eliminated at least half of them. In this way, the military expenditure used for military towns can be reduced by at least one million. In addition, I ask the emperor to refer to the former plan of Sun Chuanting and Sun's reclaim. Any desert land can be jointly confirmed by the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Industry can be delivered to the local garrison to make up for the insufficient military expenditure."

Chongzhen had long been disarmament towards these warlords, and had discussed with Wang Cheng's loving many times. Today, he heard Zhang Huangyan's proposal and immediately expressed his opinion:

"What Zhang Aiqing said is indeed reasonable. I think the matter of military farming can be started first. The Military Affairs Office has drawn up a statement. What I mean is that each army will select and establish a Type A Legion and a Type B Legion. The Type A Legion is mainly for combat, and the Type B Legion is mainly for military farming, and it can also start mining. The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Revenue jointly surveyed the uninhabited land, and it can also reclaim wasteland or mines. The Type B Legion is self-sufficient in mining, and the imperial court will not collect taxes for the time being. After the Type B Legion turns to military farming and mine mining, it will maintain a minimum training and make no requirements for combat power. Even if it goes to the battlefield, it will be mainly logistics."

When Wang Duo heard that the emperor wanted to divide the military branches of A and B, he couldn't help but worry about something happening in the army, so he said:

"Emperor, the old minister thinks that this matter should not be too hasty. Zuo Liangyu, Liu Zeqing, and Liu Liangzuo's troops are mostly unruly. If they are too quick, I am afraid that there will be changes in the army. Our dynasty will move to Nanjing and everything will not be harmonious. The old minister thinks it is better to delay it for a while. When the emperor's new army is completed, it may be more appropriate to move again at that time."

Zhang Shenyan also echoed: "The old minister thinks it is also important to be cautious."

Chongzhen naturally knew that these warlords falsely reported and took military pay. To implement the A-B military service system and the military mining system would be like cutting off their financial path, and they would inevitably feel resentful. However, Zuo Liangyu claimed to be a 200,000 army. If he could feed the 200,000 army and feed the bastard, his combat power would still be diarrhea. What's the use?

"Dear friends, don't be so nervous and smile, you're young! Let's go with me to the shooting hall and try the pistols and rifles of the Ministry of Works. Let's discuss it after the trial, what if?"

The group came to the shooting hall of the Royal Club. The purpose of Chongzhen's construction of this shooting hall was to facilitate his own gun training. The second consideration was to let civil officials try shooting, which would add a little bit of martial temperament. Don't be a genius, you can only talk about the kingly way, and you must also understand that you have to rely on the domineering method of guns and cannons to win the real kingly way. If you don't have a little domineering, who will tell you the kingly way!

The pistols and rifles in the shooting hall are fixed on the gun stand, and can be aimed at left and right, but they cannot deviate from the shooting target area, and they cannot be taken down and taken away. This is for the sake of the emperor's safety and to prevent weapons from leaking, and this is specially designed in this way, and even the dropped shells are responsible for picking up.

Chongzhen was the first to come on the field and fired five shots in a row. Except for the first shot and eight rings, the other four bullets were all ten rings. Then it was Shi Kefa's turn, the chief assistant and minister of the Ministry of War. Finally, he touched the gun twice, and the guns hit the target.

Ma Shiying was often in the military, and was exiled, so she was strong. Although she had never touched a gun, she was not frightened. She stepped forward and held the pistol, imitated Chongzhen's posture, and fired the gun. The first shot was shot and the second shot was still shot. When it came to the third shot, she finally got on the target. Ma Shiying was also a fearless person. The fourth shot and the fifth shot were shot better and better. After the shooting, she was still unsatisfied.

Gao Hongtu and Jiang Yueguang tried the first shot, but they couldn't hold the recoil of the pistol too strong. They got older. After a shot, they were gasping for breath and could no longer shoot. Wang Duo had two of the five shots on the target, and they were quite satisfied with his achievements. Although Qian Qianyi was 63 years old, he was only taught to military academy students and was influenced by his knowledge of shooting. He insisted on firing five shots. Although he only had one shot on the target, he was overjoyed. Huang Daozhou was nearly 60 years old. Perhaps he was diligent in calligraphy and painting, and his hands were good. He actually shot two shots on the target, and the last shot was eight rings. Jie Xuelong was also good, and he was also sixty years old. He also shot two shots on the target, and he also shot a seven ring. Only Zhang Shenyan was weak and did not shoot a single shot. Chongzhen did not force him.

Then the group came outside. Chongzhen ordered people to lead a cow. A hundred steps away, he raised his rifle and hit the cow's head. The cow fell to the ground immediately. After falling to the ground, he kicked his four hooves for a while, and then there was no movement. When the ministers approached, they saw that the cow was dead and could not die anymore. The old ministers circled around the cow, but couldn't believe that a small bullet could kill a cow a hundred steps away.

Chongzhen clapped his hands and brought his ministers to the conference room of the Royal Club. After he ordered everyone to sit down, he said:

"The Military Affairs Office meeting will be held here in the future. There can be a sand table in the middle and a blackboard behind it. Etiquette and other things are important, but there is no need to be too particular. Practice is always the first priority. If you can avoid red tape, just avoid it!"

After pausing, he continued, "Your family, I have just seen that a strong cow, four ordinary people cannot subdue it. I can only shoot the cow by one shot, but it is still a hundred steps away. A cow can kill him with one shot, let alone a person. I can tell you that I killed fifty or sixty bandits while moving south with a pistol. When my 3,000 new army is trained, even if Zuo Liangyu's 200,000 troops are going to rebel, I can also lead the army to personally expedition and destroy him in one fell swoop. Besides, I don't know that he dares not move!

Zuo Liangyu didn't move. He, Liu Zeqing and Liu Liangzuo dared to make trouble. They had a few brains, but they were not enough to cut them! Therefore, dear friends, you don't have to look forward to it. Just follow my wishes, force the division of A and B to eliminate the old and weak. What I want is elite soldiers who can fight, not just fill in the numbers. They can't fight, but what's the use of using the number of people to bluff people! The Qing soldiers are only 100,000, and they claim to be "invincible". If my new army wants to achieve "invincible thousands", I will defeat the Qing soldiers and recover Liaodong with 50,000 elite soldiers."

After hearing the emperor's passionate words, everyone was brave enough to applaud naturally.

After the applause stopped, Liu Jiyun stood up and said:

"Your Majesty, the second phase of the Royal Military Academy has been enrolled, and the new recruits of 10,000 new recruits have been recruited, and they will start learning and training from tomorrow. I am afraid that there are not enough moral education instructors. I want to ask the emperor, should you ask me to take time to teach moral education?"

"There is no need for this. You can choose from the first phase, and use the old to lead the new. This will be done in the future. Dear friends will be very busy immediately. I will prepare for taking back Taiwan from the Dutch in three months, and drive the Qing soldiers out of North Korea in half a year. This is practical training, including the navy. From now on, political and military preparations must be started."
