Wei Liangchen thought Zhang Hu wanted to enter the Imperial Horse Prison.

Zhang Hu was originally a man from the palace, but he followed Gao Huai to Liaodong to become the commander of the Flying Tiger Army. Now that Gao Huai has fallen, he wants to return to the palace and it is not too much to take up a ministry in the Imperial Horse Supervision.

After all, after leading troops for a long time, I will inevitably have some feelings for this "profession". In the palace, there is no other place except the Imperial Horse Prison that can meet Zhang Hu's conditions. The military battle situation is also related to military affairs, but it is mainly about manufacturing, rather than directly leading the army like the Imperial Horse Prison.

If a man does not care for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth.

Zhang Hu followed Gao Huai for ten years, and the situation is not good now. It is normal for him to plan a way out for himself.

Liangchen did not think that this condition was inappropriate. He considered the possibility of this condition. Wanli was not the kind of person who broke the bridge across the river. Gao Huai had too much focus, and the firepower of the outside court was concentrated on him, and Guan Bian's spearhead was also aimed at him. Therefore, even the emperor, Wanli had to sacrifice Gao Huai to give the outside court an explanation. However, Liangchen thought that as long as Wanli was willing, he could still withstand the pressure and save it.

As long as Zhang Hu has a part-time job in the Imperial Horse Supervision, he and his tax soldiers can listen to Wei Liangchen. No matter how you look at it, it is a very cost-effective transaction.

Liangchen was about to agree, and he had great confidence in persuading Wanli.

If Zhang Hu was from the outside court and the good ministers said good things for him, I'm afraid Wanli would probably listen, but Zhang Hu was a person from the inner court and was sent by him from Wanli. In the tenth year of Liao, he had no contribution and had worked hard.

Combined with Wanli's emphasis on eunuchs and his extreme disgust to the foreign dynasty, the good ministers were sure that as long as they came from Wanli's perspective and proposed the various benefits of protecting Zhang Hu, Wanli should not object.

In this way, he can capture the Flying Tiger Army through Zhang Hu. Although there are only a few hundred people left in the Flying Tiger Army, it is better than not.

Liangchen wanted to take the Flying Tiger Army to Fushun, and he had already had the reputation. Wanli asked him to investigate Gao Huai's debts to arouse border quarrels, so he would be open and upright with the Flying Tiger Army. Because this Flying Tiger Army is the person involved. You Nurhaci said that Gao Huai owed you money, so okay, I will confront you with these staff members, okay?

However, soon, Liangchen realized that Zhang Hu's request could not be done at all, and it was no longer a matter of inappropriateness, but rather an excessive amount.

Because what Zhang Hu proposed was not that he would enter the Imperial Horse Prison alone, but that he would bring hundreds of tax soldiers under his command to the Imperial Horse Prison together. Of course, they did not collectively castrate themselves as eunuchs, but wanted to build a "staff" from the Imperial Horse Prison.

To be precise, Zhang Hu proposed that they must become soldiers under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Horses, just like the Tengxiang Guards and the Warriors Camp. If they cannot form an army alone, they will be incorporated into the Four Guards or the Warriors Camp.

Liangchen was very self-aware of this matter, and he thought he could not do it.

The difficulty is too great, and it involves the fundamentals of the Imperial Horse Supervision.

The Imperial Horse Supervisor is the Ministry of War of the Inner Court. It not only leads the Four Guards of Tengxiang and the Warriors Camp, but also takes charge of the responsibility of supervising the Beijing Camp. It is the only military yamen among the twenty-four prisons.

This yamen has a strong position in the inner court and can even compete with the Sili Supervisor at a specific time. The military eunuchs sent by the inner court to various places are basically selected by the Imperial Horse Supervisor. It can be said that at least half of the military eunuchs and the eunuchs guarding are from the Imperial Horse Supervisor.

Looking at the Ming Dynasty, Daqian, who was born in the Imperial Horse Supervision Bureau, was no weaker than the factory man in the Admiral Dongchang, such as Cao Jixiang during the Tianshun period, Wang Zhi and Liang Fang during the Chenghua period, Zhang Yong and Gu Dayong during the Zhengde period, and later Gao Qiqian during the Chongzhen period.

The gun comes from power, and the big shots also come from big shots.

The Imperial Horse Supervisor is a place where big shots come from.

The Tengxiang Four Guards and Warriors Battalion under this prison are even more personal troops among the personal troops. If Zhang Hu's Flying Tiger Army wants to join, it will be difficult for him to ascend to the sky.

The main responsibility of the four guards of Tengxiang is to "more than the front line", namely the Imperial City of Guards.

This imperial guards were originally called "Three Thousand Houses in Yulin". Later, based on the three Thousand Houses, the guards of the Beijing Army enriched the horse-raising soldiers and the official troops of the Yuan Shenwu Foreward, and formed the Tengxiang Left, Right Guard, Wuxiang Left, and Right Guard, collectively known as the "Four Guards".

During the Jingtai and Chenghua period, the three major camps of the Beijing Army were reorganized into the regiment battalion system. The warriors and strong flag troops of the Tengxiang Guards were drawn, and the Warriors and Four Guards were also formed, and the camp officials were selected among the commanders of the four guards. The two battalions were in Hongzhi and Zhengde during the Zhengde period. After many rectifications, the quota was set at more than 6,500.

However, no matter how many changes have occurred in the organization of the Tengxiang Four Guards over the past two hundred years, what remains unchanged is that this imperial guard has always been led by the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and the outside dynasty cannot get involved at all.

If the four guards of Tengxiang are the Imperial City Guards, then the Warriors Camp is the special forces among the imperial guards.

The Warriors Camp was an army established during the Yongle period. Although there were not many people, only two thousand people, all the personnel in the camp were young Han people who fled back from Mongolia alone. Needless to mention their physical fitness, they were even more powerful when fighting.

When he was young, Emperor Yingzong Zhu Qizhen was very ambitious and dreamed of surpassing his great-grandfather Emperor Yongle, expanding territory and establishing great achievements. So when Wang Zhen instigated him, he personally fought in a sensation, but in the end he was wiped out with an entire army and ended up being captured. This was the "Tumu Fort Incident" that led to the decline of the Ming Dynasty from prosperity.

When more than 300,000 troops were defeated by thousands of people, the only one that retained its entire establishment system, was not disbanded by the Mongols, and killed the enemy in front of them, and escaped unscathed.

Later, the Warriors Battalion participated in the "Beijing Defense Battle" organized by Yu Qian and became the main force and core of the defending army. Unfortunately, after the incident, the Ministry of War led by civil servants believed that the Warriors Battalion was not a regular army of the Ming Dynasty, but was just a ban on the troops led by eunuchs, so they did not pay more attention to it and continued to send them back to the Imperial Horse Prison, and all the treatment was also average.

When Cao Jixiang rebelled during the Tianshun period of Emperor Yingzong, he relied on two elite soldiers, one was the Warriors Camp in the Imperial Horse Supervision, and the other was the Black Flag Arrow Team promoted by the East Factory.

The Warriors Camp is still following the initial system of the country. Every year, people are sent to the border to recruit young and strong Han people who fled from Mongolia to always maintain the combat effectiveness of the Warriors Camp.

However, whether it is the Tengxiang Four Guards or the Warriors' Battalion, the weight of the imperial guards determines that the Flying Tiger Army cannot join through the "political review". The former is to directly guard the imperial city, while the latter is the only elite force that can be mobilized by the Dawei. How can a team similar to the horse bandits composed of Han people, Jurchens, Mongolians, and Koreans stay by the emperor?

"I'm afraid I can't do anything about the Imperial Horse Supervisor." Liangchen would not say that he could do it. Although he needed the Flying Tiger Army, he would not temporarily pull them over by deception.

Wei Liangchen's answer did not surprise Zhang Hu much. He said: "Can Wei Sheren know why these people are willing to join my Flying Tiger Army?"

In addition to money and women, Liangchen couldn't imagine what price Gao Huai could offer.

Zhang Hu looked at Zheng Duo: "What did you tell Wei Sheren for?"

Zheng Duo stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "When we join the Flying Tiger Army, Eunuch Gao once promised that we could be the emperor's personal army in the future."
