"Brother said that the Eight Banners stationed in the pass are much worse than the Junggar Khan tribe in the Western Regions. They are not brave enough when charging, and there are some problems with military discipline."

Just now, the old mother's mentality was still the same. When she talked about the serious matter, Kangxi returned to her original role. There was still some restlessness in her heart who was angry about her son's marriage. After Yinreng finished speaking seriously, Kangxi was calm and calmly fell into thinking.

Yinreng said seriously: "The disadvantages of the Eight Banners System of the Qing Dynasty were already reflected during this Western Expedition. Has Khan Amake thought about how to improve this matter?"

Indeed, the Eight Banners system allows the banner people to be in the army for generations. When the father dies, the descendants will succeed them. The banner people can only rely on military pay, cannot make a living by other things, cannot do business, and cannot cultivate. Every year, the court spends a lot of military pay to support them. Even if they do not go to the battlefield and do not participate in training, as long as they are banner people, the family will rely on the court to support them.

"When the Qing Dynasty was founded, the original Eight Banners soldiers came from outside the pass. They grew up on horseback and were naturally brave and good at fighting. However, their descendants moved into the pass and grew up in the more comfortable pass since they were young. They had never been to a harsh place and could not adapt to the arduous training at all. In addition, they had no way to make a living, so many Eight Banners citizens were idle all day long."

"I don't know these things, but the war has begun, so we should not act rashly, otherwise it will affect the morale of our army. I attach importance to this battle and have the intention of commanding the army in person again. I do not want to leave regrets when fighting with the Junggar Khan tribe."

Kangxi hid his heart and cheered up his spirits to deal with it: "It's not time yet, Baocheng. Today's Fujian Navy, the training of the new army has matured, and the changes to the Eight Banners system can indeed be mentioned, but not now."

Yinreng nodded: "My son agreed with my elder brother's suggestion, reorganize the army and remove the hereditary system of the Eight Banners, of course, it was after the war."

If the war occurs, the peace will only lead to more descendants of the Eight Banners to become aborted people who can only rely on the military pay of the imperial court.

The reorganization of the army is to reshuffle it, and those with combat ability will be kept. Those who do not have combat ability will be allowed to leave their military status and seek other opportunities to make a living, rather than shrinking into the status of the Eight Banners and being corrupted by this rough and simple system.

The emperor pondered for a moment and said, "The combat power of the Eight Banners is not as bad as you imagined. Yinzhi wrote to you because he wanted to retrain troops and asked you to persuade me to agree to his request to retrain troops."

It is also a great time to remove the Eight Banners staff who were in the army, which Ledehong operated in the army. Once Kangxi agreed, Yinzhi would have the opportunity to gain more military power.

"The two emperors also agree with the elder brother's statement," Yinreng added: "The elder brother wants to retrain and select elite reorganization of the army. These are imminent, and Khan Ama needs to be unified."

Kangxi was silent for a long time and thought quietly.

Whether to give great military power to protect the Qing Dynasty? Once this opening is opened, the eldest prince’s prestige in the army will usher in the prosperity.

"He is not yet twenty years old in Baoqing." Kangxi looked at him and said, meaningful.

"Aren't there two emperor uncles? There are other supervisors watching. If the elder brother makes a mistake, someone will naturally correct me." The prince trusted the eldest son very much, and in turn persuaded Kangxi to delegate power.

Yinreng explained: "Khan Ama, what the Qing Dynasty needs is an army that can adapt to the difficult environment, an army that has fighting spirit and spirit, rather than some hereditary young men. As for how the new army is organized and managed, the Qing Dynasty has a foundation, and it is the order you issued a few years ago that allows the Qing Dynasty's navy to maintain combat power, maintain order at sea, clear pirates, and protect our people."

The Navy has done this, is it difficult for the Army to do it?

Is it difficult to no longer keep wine bags and clean the Eight Banners? It’s not difficult, it only depends on whether the emperor has the determination.

If the domestic unstable years were in the past few years, maybe I would not dare to do this. Now the domestic economy is taking off and there is vitality everywhere. If you move the Eight Banners, you will not collapse and the earth will even rescue the excess Eight Banners descendants from the banner and get other ways to make a living.

Banners are not allowed to do business, farm, sell art, and make a living by other means other than military pay. Not everyone has a position, so the banner people at the bottom are miserable!

Yinreng was determined to build an army, and Yinzhi had the ability to reorganize the army, and his two sons were waiting for Kangxi to agree.

Kangxi said: "After conquering the Western Regions, we will reorganize the military system. In this battle, I want to lead the army again."

Yinreng: "..."

Kangxi: "If Galdan does not die for one day, it will be a big trouble for me. As long as he is there, my heart will always be unstable."

Yinreng said the truth: "Then you may have to hurry up and set off."

Kangxi subconsciously replied to him: "What?"

"The elder brother wants to reorganize the army in order to train elite troops, fight blitzkrieg, and use terrain to surround and block. Now he is eager to send a letter because time is tight," Yinreng explained.

"The foundation of the Junggar Khanate is unstable. In the early years, it was composed of various nomadic tribes. Now Galdan has unified it, but it has been difficult to manage it."

Kangxi listened patiently and urged him: "Tell me the key point quickly."

"The supply of our army is transported by granaries from various places, while the supply of the Junggar Khanate is cattle, sheep, and horses. Their grain planting coverage area is not enough to maintain a long-term battle. Although they are brave and good at fighting now, it is because they still retain the combat power on the horse's back. But once they have been in a long time, their supply shortcomings are simply not as good as those of the Qing Dynasty."

Kangxi thought: "But it's not winter now."

"Last winter, the Junggar Khanate had already begun to experience food shortages," Yinreng added, blurting out: "This spring, there was another animal plague in their country, and most of the cattle, sheep and horses died, which made it even worse when the green and yellow were not met."

"Huh?" Kangxi came to his spirits: "Is it the news from Baoqing? Why didn't he report?"

It was the news that Yinreng dug out from the fourteenth mouth. He learned that this was the most difficult time for Galdan. In his previous life, due to the obstruction of Rakshasa, the Khalkha Mongolia missed the civil strife. Now he has no worries, so why don’t he take the opportunity to completely get rid of it?

Yinreng hinted that Yinzhi went to verify, but he was vague about where he got the news. If Khan Ama asked again, he would be rude to Xiaomei and let Xiaomei take the blame.

Yinreng glanced at the tool tiger Xiaomei. It was chasing its tail and circled around, and said to Kangxi with a smile: "Brother has sent a scout to verify it. Once the news is true, it will send a memorial to you."

In fact, Yinzhi's memorial was sent to the capital from 800 miles apart.

Regarding the attack on Galdan, Yinbi adopted the prince's suggestion after proofreading, cut off his food and supplies, forced Galdan to the city, and then used the plan to catch turtles in a jar.

But Yinzhi was really not sure whether he could capture Galdan. He had to increase his confidence and personally train a group of elites who could endure hardships. However, can Khan Ama agree to reorganize the Eight Banners children? If Khan Ama thought he could not wait to train his personal soldiers and manage his own connections, would a father and son have a gap? If a dissatisfied people and caused turmoil in the army, could he suppress the floating hearts?

Yinzhi not only needs to test the attitudes of the two emperors, but also pay attention to guard against old forces such as Ledehon. Perhaps because he knew that the eldest prince was unstoppable, Ledehon cooperated on the surface, but in fact he was staring at him tightly, just waiting for him to make any mistakes, he joined forces with his followers to attack him.

At first, Khan Ama took Nalan Mingzhu away, giving Yinzhi the opportunity to take charge of military power without being influenced by Nalan Mingzhu. Now Khan Ama sent Nalan Mingzhu to Yinzhi, and he had already gained a foothold in the army. One more Mingzhu is equivalent to an extra scheming strategist, but someone could look at Ledehong for him.

However, Nalan Mingzhu was not in the capital, and no one in the court in the capital would preside over the overall situation to help Yinzhi. If a court official and a censor participated in the impeachment, which would lead to Khan Ama changing his mind, it would ruin Yinzhi's plan for the Western Expedition.

It’s also a big blame for him being too young. If he had been in another ten years, who would have dared to question him. It is because he is only twenty years old now and has spent a lot of effort in the army to impress his subordinates.

Because of these concerns, Yinzhi took the lead in sending a letter to Yinreng.

Kangxi received a report from Yinzhi, confirming that the situation in the country of Junggar Khanate was not good and that the subsequent supply was insufficient. He happily said: "This is God helping us to unify the Western Regions!"

"Baoqing wanted to train another soldiers to form a team of soldiers in the west. This plan would be great if it could capture Galdan alive as he wished." Kangxi was more concerned. In addition to Yinzhi's obstacles when training another soldiers, he also considered the reaction of the court in the capital and the morale issues in the army.

In order to solve these problems, I couldn't wait to eliminate the great troubles of Galdan, so Kangxi decided to lead the army in person again!

"With me watching in person, the morale will never be affected by this again," the opposition to the rule of the eldest prince had no idea. It was more effective than any other method to go to the army.

As for the capital, the prince will continue to be left behind.

Before leaving, Kangxi held Yinreng's hand and was very excited: "I trust Baocheng's ability to deal with government affairs. I will go here and return within a year. When Galdan is destroyed, the war in the west will definitely happen. I will come back and take the crown prince's wedding!"

Yinreng tried hard to coax the excited Kangxi away and sighed: "Amma Khan said this, are you afraid that she will run away alone?"

During the Western Expedition of Kangxi, he often wrote letters to Yinreng, sometimes he would think of him, sometimes he would care about his health, and occasionally asked about the situation of the young princes and the young princesses in Yinreng's reply. What was unshakable was that every letter would end up saying a few words about the prince's wedding. From the beginning of the year to the end of the New Year, urging the marriage was like a storm, and Yinreng, who had been calm about getting married and let it go, was disturbed by Khan Ama.

The good news came from the war in the west, and the battle started in summer and lasted until winter. This winter, the Junggar Khan tribe once again ushered in an even worse year. The domestic grain harvest was a bad harvest and the cattle and sheep were too much. I heard that their army can only rely on eating lean camel meat to support it.

Galdan was forced to the end of his strength by the Qing army, but Kangxi did not stop the attack due to the cold, so he asked Yinreng to send reinforcements to transport more food and grass and winter clothes to support the front line.

It was not just the military suppression on the front line, but the Qing court was different from previous years. It even learned to suppress public opinion and constantly sent people to convey information, spread rumors, and distribute newspapers.

Recruiting Galdan's subordinates has shaken the hearts of the people of the Junggar Khanate!

"This year's Qing Dynasty's treasury is full of grain, and it's another bumper harvest year. Their rice is piled up and cannot be eaten, and the rats in the rice warehouse are all round and plump!"

"A few years ago, they had artificial incubation technology that has been brewing and matured for many years. Now there are chicken farms everywhere in the Qing Dynasty. The most common ones on the market are chickens that can be cultivated in a short period of time."

"In comparison, duck meat costs are higher than chickens, slightly less, and pork breeding time is longer and less. It's less common to the villagers' New Year's table and only one pot of pork is eaten by a family, but it's too little."

The herders of the Junggar Khan tribe heard that the Qing people disliked the New Year and felt that the whole family had little pork, and she shed tears of envy.

Under the influence of public opinion, the people's hearts gradually disintegrated. Galdan, who fled to Hohhot, fled to the collapse and killed two generals who persuaded him to surrender, which further aroused conflicts within the tribe.

Kangxi sent another letter: I made full preparations for this Western Expedition, brought many imperial physicians, and there were thousands of letters in the Tao, but I could not see the invasion of the evil spirits of the water and soil along the way. The weather became colder, so Baocheng wore warm clothes in the capital, so don’t catch a cold. Now I am worried for you, and when Baocheng marrys a concubine next year, there will be a concubine for you. I am afraid that it will not be too late to return to my year. I will go to the Empress Dowager for the Year, but now I will go through it briefly. When Baocheng returns in the next year, I will arrange peace for you. When the army is victorious, the Western Regions are in line, and the prince will take some happy events to join in. I hope it will arrive quickly.

As the wedding date approaches, Yinreng is influenced by Khan Ama and has aroused some tension and anxiety.

The uncertainty about future life is even more magnified by Khan Ama's close attention.

Yinreng couldn't stand Kangxi's urging to get married. He whispered: "Does Khan Ama know that this mentality of his son will make his son afraid of getting married?!"

Yinzhen, who accepted his confidant trouble, glanced at him and said lightly: "Do you know, brothers, how envious are you brothers?"

"In Khan Ama's heart, your major events in life are equally important as national events."

Yinzhen snorted: I don’t know how to be blessed.

With this hum, even the anger was sour.
