The Ministry of War was divided into several departments: the Wuxuan Qing official department, the Qing official department, the Che Jiaoqing official department, the Wuku Qing official department, the Wuku Qing official department, and the Lifan Academy, and the Ministry of Rites in charge of external envoys.

During this time in the Ministry of War, Yinzhi had already reversed the military election and the Qingli Department of the Office, and understood how to deal with matters such as selection, investigation, and pension of military generals.

When Yinreng went, Yinzhi had already been transferred to the Armamentary Qing Lishu Department, which was mainly in charge of military registration, weapon inventory and military general examination.

After seeing Yinzhi again after a few months of separation, Yinreng exclaimed: "It is said that scholars should treat each other with admiration for three days. If they haven't seen each other for a few months, the eldest brother's figure has already risen as tall as Lord Sha Cheng."

Yinzhi's face, which was originally full of smiles, froze slightly, and his mouth was praising him so hard that he suddenly became listless.

If Hazhan hadn't been here, he might have raised his hand and knocked on the silly brother's head.

A metaphor for who is not good, compare him with Sha Cheng's old minister of orange peel, who doesn't shrink when he is older?

Hazhan welcomed the young prince into the Ministry of War office, and another Minister of War Li Zhifang was a civil servant. He stood with the tall and powerful Manchu generals of Hazhan, who looked small and thin.

Before being promoted to Beijing to become the Minister of War, Hazhan was once the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, and made great contributions to the suppression of the Three Feudal Rebellion.

He had rich experience in leading troops in the local area and belonged to the Zhenglan Banner. He introduced the Eight Banners to Yinreng in detail.

"The Eight Banners Army of the Qing Dynasty includes two types: the capital garrison and the foreign garrison. There are four major military regions outside the capital, located in Xi'an, Fuzhou, Guangzhou and Chengdu."

Yinreng heard Kangxi's analysis that Xi'an was the place where the capitals of the Han and Tang Dynasties were established, and it was an important military geographical location.

After the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, it relied on local garrisons to maintain national rule. At that time, there was no Eight Banners garrison. Fuzhou and Guangzhou were all the places where the anti-Qing and restoration of the Ming Dynasty were in full swing. Wu Sangui, Geng Jingzhong and others held their own troops until the Three Feudal Rebellion was pacified the previous year. Kangxi completely set up custom Eight Banners garrisons in Fujian and Guangzhou. Sichuan is close to Yunnan, Qinghai and Tibet, and is geographically far from the capital. There are many ethnic minorities there and are prone to chaos. Therefore, the Chengdu garrisons in Chengdu Prefecture belong to Manchuria and Mongolian. In addition to being responsible for governing the Sichuan Basin, it is also responsible for stabilizing the southwest part of the Qing Dynasty.

"The Eight Banners stationed in the capital city have branch camps, such as the Xiaoqi Camp, the Guards' Personal Army, and a total of nine camps, and they were directly ordered by the emperor."

During the Ming Dynasty, the Ministry of War was in charge of civil servants. In the Ming Dynasty, civil servants ruled military officials, which led to its destruction and disaster, causing a dispute between civil servants and military officials. Military generals retaliated against civil servants and imperial power. The garrisons in various places had no food and grass and weapons, and their combat capabilities were certainly not as good as those of the Qing army at that time.

With the lessons learned from the past, the Qing Dynasty adopted both civil and military governance in the establishment of the Ministry of War, and both Manchu and Han governance.

The eight banners are in it. It can be said that the actual power of the Ministry of War is useless. With the eight banners beside them, the military power is all in the hands of the emperor, and the Ministry of War is just the steward of the emperor.

Because of his reunion with Yinzhi, Yinreng first visited the arsenal. When fighting in the Eight Banners, they mostly used swords, swords, crossbows, and spears. Most of the Eight Banners soldiers did not use hot weapons. According to legend, the brave and warlike cavalry camp used swords.

Yinreng asked: "What about guns and cannons?"

Ha Zhan said: "The camp where there is no special gun or cannon is in charge of the arsenal together on weekdays."

These cannons left by the previous dynasty have been covered with dust. Looking at the Eight Banners, there are very few who can use guns.

Ha Zhan said: "If one person uses a gun and another person uses a knife, then the soldiers of the cavalry camp who use a knife can put them to death before they shoot. One of the guns is not practical."

Yinreng secretly complained: But the gun in "Detective Conan" is very powerful!

The gun used by gin can kill people in an instant, and assassination of the blocking gun is also terrible.

Perhaps seeing Yinreng being interested in guns, Hazhan took him to the warehouse where guns and cannons were piled up.

Yinzhi whispered to him: "The Qing Dynasty established a country with bows and horses, and it was not easy to use guns at all."

Because the technology is immature, the existing guns have a short range and are slow to load bullets, which greatly affects efficiency.

Only cannons can have the power to blast open the fortress, and the court also attaches some importance to it, but the existing cannons have low accuracy and limited power.

After seeing all kinds of guns described in "Detective Conan", and watching the Pirate War in "One Piece". Compared with the existing inventory, Yinreng's beautiful yearning for the strength of the Qing Dynasty's weapons was like a bubble, and it suddenly spread out.

Hazhan was still exaggerating the power of the Qing cavalry: "Among the Eight Banners, the banner owner of the Zhenghuang Banner is the emperor. This cavalry is the most brave and good at fighting. When riding a horse and charging in a formation, it is like a hungry wolf rushing into a flock of sheep, fighting fiercely, and nowhere can you live."

Yinzhi curled his lips: That was all during the reign of the two emperors, grandfather and great-grandfather.

The main force that suppressed the Three Feudal Rebellion was not the Eight Banners, but the reorganized Ming and Han soldiers, which were also called the "Green Camp".

The Eight Banners stationed in the capital did not fight, so the spirit and state of mind in the army was different.

This place has become a place where the children of the powerful and powerful family come in to "stay away". If you want to talk about excellent workers, there are also some, but if there are two or three of the ten people, the morale of the entire army will be different.

Among the three banners, there are the most "relationship households". They all come from prominent families, but there are not many who are truly capable.

Yinzhi felt awkward after seeing it too much, but because of his young age, Khan Ama did not give him power, so he could only learn and not move around.

"When we are going to visit the Eight Banners Capital, they will perform well and all of them are here," Yinzhi told Yinreng privately: "But in fact, if I hadn't made a temporary decision one day, I wouldn't know how casual they were in private. Shangguan did not punish them because of his prominent family, and even protected them because of his in-laws. When I grow up and can command soldiers, I will definitely train them well!"

Yinzhi wanted to train a team himself, especially when he saw the Eight Banners under the management of the Ministry of War, he strengthened his determination to take charge of the troops in the future.

The management of the Eight Banners cannot be blamed for the Ministry of War. The power of the Ministry of War and the Eight Banners comes from the emperor. The two are not subordinate. The military power of the Eight Banners is in the hands of the emperor, not in the hands of the ministers of the Ministry of War.

Yinreng wrote down Yinzhi's complaints in his small notebook and mentioned to Yinzhi: "Where is Ruogu now asking to visit the camp?"

"Then they will immediately gather people to deal with you with the best of their own."

Yinreng planned to take a look first, and asked Hazhan to see how the cavalry camp was trained. Hazhan then passed the information to the cavalry camp stationed in the city. The chief and vice president received the order and waited for the prince to visit the camp at the camp.

Yinzhi said: "In terms of position, the Knight Camp is responsible for the city gate. On weekdays, it is mostly patrol-oriented, but there is not much training."

This is the root of the problem. The capital is under the emperor's feet. There is no war to fight under the emperor's feet. The garrison here is responsible for daily patrol and inspection tasks, but its own training strength has been completely delayed.

How comfortable are the Eight Banners children stationed in the capital? It can be seen from their growing body shape.

Yinreng wrote down many small notebooks and raised questions to Yinzhi: "Ama Khan will not be unaware of these."

"What can Khan Ama knows? He can't punish the Minister of War. It has nothing to do with Lord Hazhan and Lord Li Zhifang."

Yinzhi shook his head: "The life of guarding the upper three flags of the banished gate is much better than that of guarding the lower five flags of the royal palace."

If something goes wrong at the root of the system, it becomes a place for the growth of worms.

"No, since there is a big problem, then Khan Ama will definitely want to change. He is not the kind of emperor who avoids doing anything even though he knows there is a problem. Khan Ama is hardworking."

Yinreng used his actions in the Ministry of Rites as an example to tell Yinzhi how to operate.

"What Gu did before was right and won the support of Khan Ama, so you see, Khan Ama ordered the establishment of a new 'literary department', and this imperial examination was also newly launched. So if the elder brother has been practicing, he wants to change the current situation of the Eight Banners and become more comfortable, then report to Khan Ama, let's learn. Although we can't really get power, you are the eldest son of the emperor and Gu is the crown prince. We can't do it ourselves, but we have Ama!"

"If you report to explain your thoughts, can Khan Ama blame you for his son's study experience? This means that you are thinking and growing up. He will be happy about your growth and will also carefully read your 'study notes'."

Yinreng knew that he had made too many comments, which made Khan Ama feel "aesthetic fatigue". Khan Ama doesn't care about his comments at all now, but my elder brother is not!

"Brother has not written a memorial to Khan Ama so far, right?"

Yinreng instigated Yinzhi: "You have been studying for so long, it is time to present your learning achievements to Khan Ama. There is no need to be afraid of writing incorrectly or not. If you write it well and think about it, this is progress. If the content you write is practical and can make some useful suggestions, it will surprise Khan Ama even more."

Yinreng continued to instigate Yinzhi: Didn’t you want to change the current atmosphere among the Eight Banners of the Capital? If you have a father here, you won’t be afraid of the sky falling. If you do this, you won’t lose money!

Yinzhi fell into deep thought: "Do you give Khan Ama? I do have many ideas to implement, but I am too young."

"Oh, brother is so stupid!"

He was young and was sent to the Minister of War and the Minister of War, and used Khan Ama's hand to pretend to be powerful.

If they were older, the courtiers themselves would avoid it and would not listen to them under the nose of Khan Ama.

It was because of his "weakness, pitifulness and helplessness" that Yinreng tricked the Ministry of Rites from the Minister of Rites to the Minister of Rites, which made the lower-level officials work overtime for half an hour every day, and even Kangxi himself added a lot of work to him.

"Brother is young, just come up with ideas, and someone will do it at that time." Yinreng blinked: "Well, that's what I did anyway."

When talking about his "great achievements", Yinreng was not ashamed at all, and he was a little proud.

Yinzhi suddenly realized that the stupid brother made so many "credits" in the Ministry of Rites, but he made no achievements in the Ministry of War. He was timid for a moment and fell behind the stupid brother instead.

Compared with Yinreng's bold moves, Yinzhi reflected on his caution in the first two months.

"You're right. We are princes, why should we be so restrained?"

The Eight Banners have "relationship households". No matter how big the relative households are, can they be able to compete with their fathers?

Seeing that his elder brother was persuaded, Yinreng pulled him to talk, "I plan to take advantage of this time to welcome the Zheng family to surrender and hold a military parade displayed by the Qing army. Even for this military parade, the Eight Banners children who stayed in the capital would have to participate in training."

"This is a good way to have the best of both worlds," Yinreng said: "And I have already mentioned this to Khan Ama before."

There are many additional trainings in the early stage of the military parade. Those who are given the Eight Banners can show themselves in front of the emperor. Those who want to make a name for themselves will naturally be willing to participate in the training. Those who are lazy and hate to work can be eliminated through training. Because they are meeting the emperor and showing the power of the Qing army to Taiwanese envoys, such a formal occasion cannot be embarrassing, and those who want to make a living will be timid themselves.

Yinreng gave him very sufficient reasons, and Yinzhi was really ready to move under his instigation.

"The military parade is a good idea. No wonder Khan Ama asked you to take charge of receiving Zheng, but you asked to come to me and were waiting for me here!"

Yinzhi was not stupid either. He gave him a few words of encouragement and immediately understood Yinreng’s plan.

Yinzhi said in confusion: "Why don't you report this to Khan Ama yourself?"

It was changed to advise him to come and report the memorial. If the military parade had a good result in the future, wouldn’t it be his?

Yinreng's guilty little eyes drifted, and he closed his head and said in a loss: "Ama Khan said I'm too noisy, so I'll learn hard and be mature and steady. He blamed me for always causing trouble for him, but I still won't get in the way of his eyes."

Yinzhi hesitated: The stupid brother seemed to be heartbroken by Khan Ama?

"How can Khan Ama say that?" Yinzhi thought of Yinreng being beaten up by Khan Ama since childhood, and he was extremely sympathetic to his stupid brother.

"The military parade is also a matter of the Ministry of War. I am in the Ministry of Rites now and can cooperate with you," Yinreng said very reasonably: "We are the sons of Khan Amawei Er who has been training. After studying for so long, it is time to show their abilities. This time we welcome the Zheng family to Beijing is a good opportunity. The Qing Dynasty is the victory side, and the Zheng family surrender is a happy event. If we do practical things, we will be the prince who can stand alone in the future. Brother, are you right?"

Yinzhi naturally knew that Yinreng was encouraging him to participate. He pondered for a while and weighed the pros and cons, and found that this matter was beneficial to him, and finally agreed to cooperate with Yinreng.

Yinzhi thought to himself: Brothers have a good relationship and have a common interest to maintain this relationship, which is great. In the future, my silly brother and I have become rulers and can support each other. Later, my younger brothers should not want to go beyond them.

Yinreng cheered and excited: It feels like the eldest brother is working in front of him, one word is cool!
