In the room, in the only house of the Ming Dynasty's Senior Military Preparation Hall, Emperor Chongzhen stood on the podium. On both sides of the podium, the governors of the Five Army Governor's Office were standing in front of them, namely Li Zicheng and his intermediate officers. They all looked excited and their faces were blushing.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at them, slowly swept everyone's face, and then spoke, "There are millions of troops in the Ming Dynasty, and many of them have made meritorious contributions. Not to mention anything else, in the Liaodong battlefield, Jianlu was beaten into a turtle with a head-shrinking turtle, and there was no such arrogance as before. Among them, many soldiers with outstanding military achievements emerged. According to my requirements, they are already qualified to study in the Ming Dynasty's Advanced Martial Arts Hall, and then I will entrust with important tasks. But..."

After dragging a long voice, looking at the Han and Mongolian soldiers below, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly raised his voice and said, "I have decided to choose you to be the first group of soldiers in the Ming Dynasty's advanced military preparatory hall. Do you know why?"

When they heard this, the governors standing beside them were a little curious. Logically speaking, this is true. These people in front of them were just ordinary soldiers from Guihua City. They seemed to have no contribution to the war to capture Hetao before. Some people might be just Mongols who surrendered to the Ming Dynasty later. Why did they become the first group of soldiers in the Ming Dynasty's high-level martial arts hall and become disciples of the emperor?

After hearing this, Li Zicheng and his officers understood why, because there was no other explanation except what they were going to do. But thinking about the places that were deserted and were actually of no value to the Ming Dynasty. Compared with those comrades who made contributions to the war with Jianlu, they seemed a little ashamed that they became the first group of soldiers and the first batch of true disciples of the Ming Dynasty's senior military preparatory hall. But from another perspective, it seems that the emperor attaches great importance to what they are going to do.

Sure enough, Emperor Chongzhen said seriously: "Because you want to expand territory for me and the Ming Dynasty. Some people may think that the northern land is barren, cold, even uninhabited for thousands of miles, and have no output. Even if such a place is taken down for me, the Ming Dynasty, it will be meaningless? But I want to tell you that it is of great significance!"

When Li Zicheng and others heard this, they couldn't help but feel excited and listened intently. The governors such as Zu Dashou were still a little confused when they blinked.

"The reason why we now believe that the northern land is barren, cold, and uninhabited for thousands of miles is a place where birds do not shit is because we see limited things. Our current ability can only use the things God gives us in a very limited way. For example, trees, coal, iron, copper and other things, in that place where everyone thinks it is barren, the number of these things is actually very huge... "

As soon as Emperor Chongzhen started talking, he kept talking, and the audience was listening carefully, listening to some things they had never heard before.

"Some people may disagree and think that these things are also available in our Ming Dynasty, and they do not care about these things in the North. But I can tell you that our ability to consume these things will become faster and faster, to a speed that you cannot imagine at all. If this continues, one day, the things given by God in our Ming Dynasty will eventually be exhausted. On that day, without wood, coal, iron, copper and other things, what will our descendants do?"

No one thought about this statement. Whether it was Li Zicheng, Zu Dashou, or others, they were shocked by the vision described by Emperor Chongzhen. They had never thought that what they saw in front of them would be exhausted in the future. If someone else said this, I believe many of them would think it was a worry. But this was said by the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and the effect would be different. They naturally thought it was far-sighted and imagined it seriously. If that day really came, what would the descendants do?

Emperor Chongzhen's voice was filled with a powerful tone, and he continued to say loudly: "Here, I can tell you a good news, a magical artifact that will make the Ming Dynasty take off, a magical artifact that can make the people of the Ming Dynasty rich, and a magical artifact that can turn copper and iron and other things given by God into our Ming Dynasty wealth. It is almost ready to be used. When this magical artifact can be officially built, the speed of consuming coal and other things given by God will be so fast that you can't imagine. I want to use this magical artifact to turn the Ming Dynasty into the most powerful country in the world, and let the people of the Ming Dynasty live and work in peace and contentment. No one will starve to death or freeze to death..."

Listening to these incredible words, everyone opened their mouths in surprise. What kind of magical artifact is it so powerful? As before, if it were said by ordinary people, the audience would probably just sneer and make a conclusion that "thinking dreams". However, this statement was said by the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty who spoke with golden words, then this is very credible. Especially the people present have been influenced by the "Secret Eye" and "Shunfeng Ears" mastered by the emperor. Now they believe that there is such a magical artifact.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at their surprised expression and did not explain what he said. It was actually the steam engine, the power device for energy conversion, which would allow the Ming Dynasty to enter the industrial age. Because these people would not understand this at the moment. Instead of wasting words, it would be better not to say it.

He looked at Li Zicheng and others and continued to say loudly: "Or now we are working hard to plan for the future of the North, which is not understood by most people. But one day in the future, when the resources we mastered by the Ming Dynasty are exhausted, our descendants will find that we have left them a treasure house of the North, which can continue to consume countless years. They will be infinitely grateful to us!"

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment and let them digest what they said just now, and then he said seriously and seriously: "You may not be able to wait for the glory of the future, but I know that I give you this honor to make you the first group of soldiers in the Ming Dynasty's Senior Martial Palace Hall. I also believe that you, the first group of soldiers, will be the pride of the Ming Dynasty's Military Palace Hall, and will be the role model for the soldiers who entered the Ming Dynasty's Senior Martial Palace Hall to learn from and be proud of!"

Hearing this, Li Zicheng and others were already full of passion. At this time, no one felt ashamed of standing here. They all held their heads and chests up, wishing they could roar to express their pride in their hearts.

"In fact, some people have realized this treasure house in the north now!" Emperor Chongzhen's face became much more serious and continued to explain, "A small Tsarist Russian country in the northwest has sent their troops and prisoners to send people they can to the north to try to occupy it first. I will never agree to this. You said, can you promise them to steal what we want to leave for our descendants to the future generations?"

"No!" Li Zicheng and others responded almost in unison. No one taught them because this was their subconscious consensus. For the Easterners, seeking benefits for their descendants is the most important thing. What Emperor Chongzhen had already explained so clearly, and the answer they gave was naturally very clear!

"Okay!" Emperor Chongzhen heard this and shouted loudly, and then said, "According to the news that I have received, there are not many people sent by Tsarist Russia at present. You have more than a thousand cavalry, which is enough to deal with them. Next, I will explain to you what you need to pay attention to when you go to the northern territory... "

Speaking of this, he pointed his hand at the governors of the Five Army Governor's Office standing on both sides, and then continued: "And they will also teach you all the details of your expedition to the Northern Land. I can tell you that only you can enjoy my personal teaching and their own teaching. In the future, the soldiers will not receive this treatment when they enter the Ming Dynasty's Advanced Martial Preparation Hall. The reason for this is that I feel that you deserve so much attention. I also hope that you will not let me down and build a big treasure house for our descendants!"

At this time, Li Zicheng had forgotten whether to grant titles or not. He was very excited and immediately left the seat and stood on one side. Then he clasped his fists with both hands and knelt on one knee and shouted to Emperor Chongzhen: "Don't worry, even if he dies, he will take up this treasure land!"

The other intermediate officers immediately followed Li Zicheng, knelt on one knee with his hands, clasped his fists, and made a promise in unison.

"Okay!" Emperor Chongzhen praised, "Once the General of the Cavalry, the horses of the cavalry were trampled on the sea of ​​great seas. Today, my soldiers will drink horses of the Beibing Ocean, so that our descendants will be as proud of the General of the Cavalry, and also proud of your generation!"

After saying that, he came forward in person, helped Li Zicheng up first, and then went to help other intermediate officers one by one.

Zu Dashou and others were watching all this by the side, and they couldn't help but feel excited. Why didn't they encounter such a thing when they were young? It's worth dying to do such a meaningful thing when the emperor met such a kindness!

After Li Zicheng and others returned to their seats, Emperor Chongzhen began to explain what to pay attention to in Beizheng.

He needed Li Zicheng to find out the terrain of Siberia and where there were people, and then he would decide where to build a city to facilitate the rule of the Ming Dynasty. One day, he would get on the train to make it more closely connected...

The things he mainly explained were actually some effective means of controlling Siberia by Tsarist Russia's invasion, such as using rivers, building cities at key points, and using these as nodes to further expand the Ming Dynasty's power in Siberia.

As a reward for these Ming soldiers, the spoils they received before would be rewarded to the soldiers who developed Siberia. Anyway, with the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, they did not like the first little wealth. At this price, these soldiers from the Northern Expedition would not have much supplies from the Ming Dynasty in the later period. Otherwise, the logistics supply would be a big problem.

In addition to these, Emperor Chongzhen, including the governors of the Five Army Governor's Office, explained to Li Zicheng and others various situations encountered in the north, how to prevent and deal with them, etc. The conquest of the north by Emperor Chongzhen, a time traveler, would be easier than the expansion of Tsarist Russia to the east in a dark way. At least, a rough map of Siberia was hung on the wall of the classroom.

There are many things to be said about in all aspects, just as Li Zicheng expected in Guihua City, their winter will basically be passed by the capital. In addition to theory, there is also military training, which also happens to be carried out in advance in the Beijing Camp.

Emperor Chongzhen was busy with all kinds of things every day, at least in the hearts of his ministers, so he could not spend it here every day. He just gave Li Zicheng and others a lesson on the first day, and the other content was explained by the governors of the Five Army Governor's Office, including Zu Dashou.

But even so, the specification is high enough. Although the Ming Dynasty's high-level martial arts hall is indeed very simple, and there is no yamen of its own. Only a room was requisitioned as a classroom in the primary martial arts hall of the capital; there was only a plaque that suggested that there was a new yamen here. But the emperor said directly that the governors of the Five Army Governor's Office taught, and this standard treatment soon spread.

For a moment, the topic of the capital was once again attracted by new things. Everyone would basically discuss the Ming Dynasty's Advanced Martial Arts Hall, and no matter whoever was, they would say a sentence or two. In the army, the response naturally became even greater. Almost all the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty wanted to go to the Ming Dynasty's Advanced Martial Arts Hall to further their studies.

This incident also shocked the Ming Dynasty's officialdom. First of all, the Minister of War Shen Yongmao couldn't hold back. In the past, he regarded the establishment of the Primary Martial Arts Hall in the Capital as a new army. If the emperor wanted to do it, he would do it and just think that the emperor was playing. Although later, it was proved that after the New Army passed the Primary Martial Arts Hall in the Capital, it was a good thing, and he did not worry too much.

But now the establishment of the Ming Dynasty's Senior Martial Arts Hall is completely different from the Primary Martial Arts Hall in the Capital. According to rumors, all localities can set up primary Martial Arts Hall, but if you want to go further, you must go to this Ming Dynasty's Senior Martial Arts Hall. In this way, will the road to promotion for warriors from various places be like the imperial examination, from the Primary Martial Arts Hall to the Senior Martial Arts Hall? In this way, wouldn't the final decision-making power of the power to command the troops held by the Ministry of War be taken away by this Senior Martial Arts Hall? This power has finally been fought from the Governor's Office of the Five Army. If it is lost like this, who can be willing to do so?

Thinking of this, Shen Yongmao couldn't hold back his anger. He sat in the position of Minister of War, forcing him to find Emperor Chongzhen to get back the power of the Ministry of War. However, Emperor Chongzhen looked at him and said lightly, which left him speechless and had to kneel down to apologize.
