Chapter 1662 It's not easy to fool this emperor!

"Cute!" Mao Wenlong became curious and called him a very cute name.

"My grandson is here!" A young man with a baby face came up after hearing this and saluted Mao Wenlong. This young man also wore a hood and a flying saucer helmet, and was dressed in the same style as Mao Wenlong's personal soldiers. However,

He is not an ordinary soldier, but Mao Wenlong's god-grandson, named Mao Kaifeng - no one else can give him this name.

Of course, the name "Kai Kei" was not given by Mao Wenlong, but by Mao Kei Kei's biological father Shang Xueli. Shang Xueli was an old subordinate of Mao Wenlong who started his career, and later died in the battle with the Hou Jin Army.

Became a loyal martyr of the Ming Dynasty. He left five sons who had no one to rely on. They were named Shang Kejin, Shang Kexi, Shang Kehe, Shang Kexi, and Shang Kebit. Among them, Shang Kejin was cute because he was cute, and Shang Kexi was likeable.

He became a godson with Mao Wenlong.

Shang Kaitai changed his name to Mao Kaitai, and Shang Kexi changed his name to Mao Yongxi. Mao Yongxi now follows his brother Shang Kejin to lead the army, while Mao Kaitai follows Mao Wenlongan and waits on horseback.

Mao Wenlong ordered: "Go and find out, who does that cavalry team belong to? It's almost the New Year and they are still practicing so vigorously?"

"Come as soon as your grandson goes." Mao Keai responded, and then got up from the ground. A soldier of Mao Wenlong beside him led a horse to him. He got on the horse and ran away to the place where the cavalry was training in the distance.

When he arrived, he discovered that the cavalry were training a group charge in a fence.

There are still many people watching outside the fence - it is almost the end of the year, and of course it is the slack season, so the farmers under the Emperor's feet have also taken a break. It happens that there is a lot of fun nearby to watch, and there are farmers who have nothing to eat and nothing to do.

, so I came over to watch the horse racing.

Mao Kaitai was cute and could talk. He quickly caught up with an old man who was watching the fun and started asking around.

"Old man, do you know who these people are racing?"

"I know! They are all the emperor's servants living in Dongyuan, and they are the horse soldiers of the pro-army in front of the tent."

"Live in Dongyuan? Dongyuan is not..."

"Dongyuan used to be the garden of the Tian family, but today I don't like the garden, but I like the servants... so there are three gardens in the east, south and north, as well as the rebel farmland around Beijing, and there are many

The imperial village and imperial land are all being distributed to these servants one after another, and each household can get 500 acres!"

When it comes to getting 500 acres, this old man gritted his teeth!

500 acres! And it’s 500 acres around Beijing. It’s really worth my money! And these 500 acres are official farmland. They don’t need to pay taxes, and they won’t be extorted and apportioned by local officials...

"Take so much!" Mao Kaitai also swallowed.

The old man glanced at Mao Kaitai and smiled: "Young man, don't be greedy... The emperor's servants are still recruiting people! You are also a general, right? Go and give it a try. Although it is a bit harder, but

If you can really get the land, house and money, if you don't get the wife, the emperor will still act as a matchmaker!"

"You always talk about bitterness? How bitter is it?" Mao Kaitai asked next.

"How hard is it? You saw it...I started practicing right after dividing the fields!" the old man said, "I practice every day and I haven't stopped. It's almost Chinese New Year and I'm still practicing! I practice horse riding in the morning and archery in the afternoon.

.....Sometimes they are pulled out of bed to practice late at night! Not only do they practice, they also have to take a test. I heard that the test will be held once a month, and the Long Live Lord will personally check and assess it. Those who fail the test will be miserable!

"

Zhu Youjian seems to have learned the "997" and "elimination system" from Nizi... His 500 acres of land also comes with generous rewards and rewards, but they are not that easy to get!

You really have to work hard to practice!

Now we are just training people, and then we have to "train horses" - the horses must also be raised and trained!

"What a tragedy? How miserable?" Mao Kaitai asked.

"With a slap in the face, a fine of money... and direct dismissal, he is no longer a servant of the emperor, and the 500 acres of farmland must be returned. Do you think it is miserable or not?"

"Really know how to cut leather?" Mao Kaitai didn't quite believe it.

"Of course it's true!" the old man said, "I heard someone say... what is called the initial elimination, at least one household is eliminated every month!"

Zhu Youjian is really serious!

He is so stingy that he spared 5 million acres of land (most of which are imperial estates) to set up 10,000 households, but he can still let them live their lives? He didn't go to imitate the crowing of chickens in the middle of the night and urge the servants to get up and train.

This is already a sign of the emperor’s grace.

Mao Kaitai inquired about it and hurried back to report to Mao Wenlong and Yuan Keli.

After listening to the report, Mao Wenlong and Yuan Keli were both secretly surprised.

The Ming Dynasty actually produced a long live master who was not easy to fool!

It's just that this long-lived master personally went out to catch the servants' training. Isn't it too detailed?

Mao Wenlong looked at Yuan Keli and frowned: "Junmen, it seems that I am actually a wise master. We, as ministers, would not dare to deceive such a wise master..."

Yuan Keli glanced at Mao Wenlong and said to himself: How could he not deceive him? Millions of Liao salaries a year and so much military rations were spent in this way? Liao, Deng, Lai, Tianjin, Dongjiang and other places.

How many soldiers and horses are reported? How many are the real numbers... I wonder if there are 100,000? Among them, I wonder if there are 30,000 that can really be fought?

If we really want to find out, the emperor's ten thousand servants may not be enough...

...

Yuan Keli and Mao Wenlong met Zhu Youjian for the first time in the Wenhua Palace on the day after entering Beijing, which was the afternoon of the 10th day of the twelfth lunar month in the seventh year of the Apocalypse. Also meeting with them was the Minister of the Ministry of War.

The king was in the Jin Dynasty, and Yang Hao, the general counselor of the army in front of the account.

"Pingshen, Pingshen, give me a seat!" Zhu Youjian was as kind as ever, greeting Yuan Keli, Mao Wenlong, Wang Zaijin and Yang Hao and giving them seats.

Both Wang Zaijin and Yang Hao were used to the longevity man's smile, so they all sat down openly.

Yuan Keli was a veteran of four dynasties and received preferential treatment wherever he went, so he sat down in a relaxed manner. Only Mao Wenlong was the most restrained, sitting only halfway up his buttocks and supporting himself with his hands, making him look like he was sitting upright.

Zhu Youjian looked at Mao Wenlong with a complicated expression, and suddenly sighed: "What a pity..."

What a pity? What do you mean?

Mao Wenlong's scalp felt a little numb when he heard this. What did the young emperor mean? What did he want to do? There wasn't any swordsman ambushing him, right?

When he was nervous, Zhu Youjian spoke again: "I looked through the military accounts of Dongjiang Town a few days ago. The troop quota was reported at 200,000, and the salary was reported at more than 600,000... It's a bit fake, right?

?600,000 yuan to support 200,000 soldiers, and the average annual salary for each soldier is only 3 taels? How is this possible?"

We really need to check the accounts!

Mao Wenlong's heart was pounding, and he felt aggrieved and wronged, and he was about to burst into tears. Although he paid the bill and started a toll collection business on the sea between Ming Dynasty and North Korea, he was a few years older than those in Liaoxi.

The position is much more righteous. Those people in Liaoxi are cheating millions a year! He, Mao Wenlong, only gets hundreds of thousands a year. And he doesn’t get the money for free. At least he can contain Donglu... Although he is

He loses more and wins less, but he is not afraid of failure and can take the initiative to attack! There are millions of people in Liaoxi cheated every year. When have they ever taken the initiative to attack? Aren't they just guarding those strong fortresses?

In fact, anyone who knows something about military affairs knows that there is no need for so many fortresses in western Liaoning... It is enough to repair Shanhaiguan. Unless the guards of Shanhaiguan surrender to the enemy, the Donglu will not attack at all. Yes! Now that there are Hongyi cannons, ordinary siege equipment cannot reach the bottom of Guancheng and will be destroyed.

If we rely on human lives to fill Shanhaiguan, Donglu will not be able to fill it even if he dies!

Moreover, it is a long distance of 700 miles from Shenyang to Shanhaiguan. If the army wants to pass through the Liaoxi Corridor, the logistics line will be too long, and it will be exposed to the Dongjiang Army's soldiers... The logistics line will be pinched for you. If there is no food, the Donglu army will be hungry.
