Qi Changguo couldn't help but burst into tears of gratitude to Zhu Youxiao. He didn't expect that His Majesty would still remember his father today.

You know, since Zhang Juzheng fell, his father has been demoted again and again. No one in the government can think of their Qi family army, the Qi family army that is so powerful that the world is.

Zhu Youxiao's praise for his father and him made him feel like he had eaten honey. He couldn't help but burst into tears in his eyes and nodded heavily.

Zhu Youxiao patted his shoulder and asked Qi Changguo again: "Li Ge Lao reported that the soldiers in your Yiyang Institute are well-trained and have received the true teachings of the Qi family army. Can I see it?"

"I have followed the order to bring them all into Wuchang City. Please review your Majesty!" Qi Changguo bowed to Zhu Youxiao solemnly, and then turned around and waved his hand to make an invitation.

Zhu Youxiao nodded and left the main hall of the royal palace. As soon as he arrived at the school ground, he saw that the soldiers of the Yiyang garrison in Qi Changguo were indeed standing on the school ground in an orderly manner. Although most of them were not tall, they were all full of energy and strong.

Zhu Youxiao had to admit that Qi Jiguang was really good at training soldiers, and many of his ideas did not lag behind modern and modern military theories. It can be seen from the Yiyang soldiers brought out by his son today.

However, due to its precision, this kind of corps that are mixed with various combinations has limited the number of people and is not suitable for promotion, so it has also assembled dozens or even millions of troops in the Ming Dynasty in this way.

It can be understood that in a sense, the Qi family army can be regarded as the prototype of the special forces unit, and it is suitable for combating guerrilla or unconventional combat troops.

The Japanese pirates back then were such enemies. As a complex of pirates and Japanese ronin, they could not afford large-scale battles of hundreds of thousands of troops, but they had strong individual combat capabilities and were good at raids and interspers. The Qi family army was targeting this point and used the exquisite and complex tactics to form a combat advantage of combining forces against individual soldiers.

The Imperial Guard now has the most conventional infantry, cavalry and artillery, and the navy that has just been established, and now only has the air force and special forces.

However, the creation of the Air Force is like the Navy. It has to wait for the Royal Academy of Sciences, the Royal Academy of Engineering, and the Ordnance Department, to develop the latest scientific research results before the most basic foundation can be established to form a technical force such as the Air Force.

However, in order to enable the Ming Dynasty to gain an advantageous position on sea and in the air in the future, these must also be accelerated.

But now the most urgent task is to use the foundation of Qi Changguo and his Yiyang soldiers to create a special forces unit of the Ming Dynasty.

"Qi Changguo, I will ask you, your father was able to form the Qi family army based on Yiwu miners and suppress the Japanese pirates. Now I have asked you to select soldiers from the Imperial Guards and even the whole country to build another Qi family army. Can you guarantee that they can fight against the Wolf soldiers in the Southwest, the Pirates in the Southeast, the Fanyi of the South China Sea, and the Tartars outside the Pass?"

Zhu Youxiao asked this very clearly, which was to ask Qi Changguo whether he could build a special forces unit that could defeat all types of troops under the scale of the war.

The reason for asking this question is naturally that Zhu Youxiao is not without foundation. You must know that after the Qi family army pacified the Japanese pirates in the south, their performance in fighting against the Tartars was not worse than that of Li Chengliang's cavalry.

Qi Changguo even said that he did not dare. As the descendant of Qi Jiguang, although he adhered to family education, he did not dare to say that he wanted to be compared with the Qi family army founded by his father.

"You don't have to be humble. As the saying goes, "Better than be better than be better than be better than bet." By looking at the morale of your Yiyang soldier, you can guess that you not only have the true teachings of Qi Shaobao, but also have further results. Moreover, I believe that if your father reborn, I naturally hope that you can bring out better soldiers than him." Zhu Youxiao said, and asked again: "How about it, do you have confidence?"

Qi Changguo is not a stupid person, so he naturally knew that Your Majesty wanted to value his own intention, so he gritted his teeth and said, "I obey the order, please rest assured. I will definitely be able to train an army that can win every battle."

"No need to boast about Haikou. You will not be asked to recruit you now. All your Yiyang soldiers were invaded and reorganized into the Imperial Guard system, and your position as a thousand households will be dismissed. I will preach the decree to Liu Ruoyu. You will enter the Royal Military Academy to participate in the third phase of the military student training, study for one year, and after graduation, I will re-grant you the position. How about re-recruiting soldiers?"

Zhu Youxiao said without waiting for Qi Changguo to answer, and said, "Although I know that your father is a genius military strategist, for the Ming Dynasty, it is like Song Zhiyue Wumu, but many military theories will not be known. I asked you to go to the Royal Military Academy to understand at least the most avant-garde military concepts at present, which can broaden your horizons. I will let the Royal Academy of Sciences, the Royal Academy of Engineering, the Ordnance Department and the Hanlin Academy open to you for free. You can learn more about it. Future wars will be much more complicated than this. Even one day, the cavalry that dominates the world will become history, and specialized troops like the Qi family army will become the norm."

After Zhu Youxiao finished speaking, he looked at Qi Changguo. He knew that even though Qi Changguo had a family background and was well-versed in the theory of literature, theory and martial arts, he would not be able to digest his own words. Just like Chang Yanling and Qin Botong and others back then, he had to explore and learn by himself before gradually understanding the theoretical knowledge he instilled in them.

What Zhu Youxiao needs to do now is to see if Qi Changguo can do it to give up his position as a thousand households in order to create a stronger Qi family army (special force soldiers). He is willing to start from scratch and get into the Royal Military Academy, and everything starts from scratch.

This is a difficult choice for many people, just like you are already an officer of the Military Division, but now you have to return to school and start as an ordinary student.

The same is true for Qi Changguo. Since Zhang Juzheng fell, his Qi family has been on the decline and has no support in the court. He has spent a lot of effort to save his own thousand households. Now he has given up suddenly, which is indeed a test.

However, when Qi Changguo thought that everything from his Qi family was given by His Majesty the Emperor, now that His Majesty the Emperor has asked him to abandon his official position and go to the Royal Military Academy, he can only obey.

"I am obeying the order, and ask Your Majesty to dismiss Wei's position as a thousand households in Yiyang! Let me rush to the capital to participate in the assessment of the Royal Military Academy!"

Qi Changguo bowed heavily to Zhu Youxiao.

"I'm sure. I'll let Mr. Li write the specific order and hand it over to you after he's done." Zhu Youxiao asked Qi Changguo to retreat. As soon as he left, Zhu Youxiao called Wu Jin, the chief of the East Factory, and ordered: "Transfer my order to Liu Ruoyu, the chief of the Royal Military Academy. At the end of the year, no matter how outstanding Qi Changguo performs, he will be dismissed. If he participates in the second re-entry selection, he will be directly promoted to the third excellent student training. After the training, he will be directly awarded the colonel commander level!"

Seeing that Zhu Youxiao was still assuring Qi Changguo that he would make him smoothly, Wang Chengen was asked to pass on a secret order to Liu Ruoyu, the eunuch of the Sili Supervisor and the admiral of the Dongchang, who was responsible for the admissions of the Royal Military Academy, to depose Qi Changguo in the third phase of the military student admission examination. This made Wang Chengen very curious and couldn't help asking: "I dare to ask Your Majesty, why is it like this? I wonder?"

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but smile: "If you don't give him a stumbling block to Qi Changguo, can he understand how difficult it is to enter this Royal Military Academy? He can study hard for a year in the future in the future. Don't be too humble to me. I will tell you, a general like him has a sense of arrogance in his bones. How can he become a calm and calm general without experiencing setbacks? Moreover, the Royal Military Academy is like a Hanlin Academy to a literati for military personnel. If Qi Changguo can't even accept this small setback, how can I feel at ease to let him take charge of the special forces troops in the future and complete various complex tasks."

"Your Majesty is wise!"

After hearing what Zhu Youxiao said, Wang Chengen couldn't help but flatter Zhu Youxiao. Zhu Youxiao didn't say much, just smiled faintly.

...

Although the rebellion of King Zhu Huakui of Chu ended, Zhu Youxiao did not intend to leave Huguang directly. Zhu Youxiao planned to meet the gentry in Huguang once.

Even, I have to go to Jiangling once.

In the pacification of King Chu's rebellion, Zhu Youxiao naturally gained a lot. Not only did he get a rich fortune and family property from King Chu Zhu Huakui, but he also deposed many vassal kings such as the King of Chu and King Lu. Almost tens of thousands of royal relatives and nobles in the entire Ming Dynasty were implicated and lost the right to legal parasitics. Moreover, these tens of thousands of people were almost all the upper class among the Ming Dynasty's relatives, occupying more than half of the resources occupied by the Ming Dynasty's relatives.

Therefore, the financial pressure of the central court will undoubtedly be greatly reduced.

Moreover, in addition, Zhu Youxiao also issued a clear order to continue to encourage royal relatives from all over the country to engage in business and trade, and the Royal Bank will give him loan discounts. Of course, if you are interested in other professions, if you just want to be a simple artist, Zhu Youxiao also agreed.

But there is also a red line. Zhu Youxiao did not allow the vassal kings to participate in the military, and even to have too high power in politics.

When Zhu Youxiao arrived at Jiangling City, the officials of Jiangling City had been like Jiangling County Magistrate Chai Shuo and other neatly marquis outside the city gate. However, Zhu Youxiao did not greet these local officials. After a few questions, he went straight to the place where Zhang Juzheng lived.

But because Zhang Juzheng has now become a typical example of the entire Ming Dynasty being characterized as a powerful and treacherous minister, his hometown in Jiangling was already dilapidated, and his private gardens were even divided up by other powerful factions.

The Jiangling County Magistrate suddenly knew that His Majesty Zhu Youjiao was coming, so he was also ready to go in a hurry. He did not expect His Majesty Zhu Youjiao to suddenly visit Zhang Juzheng.

In his opinion, he thought that His descended to Jiangling was to go to Xianling to worship his ancestors, but he did not expect to come to see Zhang Juzheng!

The Jiangling County Magistrate secretly regretted not renovating Zhang Juzheng's old house to deceive him. But now, His Majesty saw that Zhang Juzheng's mansion became so dilapidated that his ancestral hall had no roof.

Seeing that His Majesty Zhu Youxiao was frowning, the Jiangling County Magistrate couldn't help but sweat.

Zhu Youxiao did not have the temper of Jiangling County Magistrate, and suddenly said very kindly: "Bandang knew loyal ministers. Although Zhang Juzheng was suspected of holding the young master hostage to command the world, after all, all his actions and the new coup reforms he implemented were the will of the late emperor, and it was not considered a disloyal and unfaithful act. Moreover, during his ten years in power, my Ming Dynasty was indeed prosperous, unlike the scenes before and after my ascension, foreign affairs were constantly smoked, and dozens of cities were lost. Seeing that countless Ming people were slaughtered by barbarians and were indifferent, and the disputes between the party and the fining were intensified within the court. First, the Donglin Party, the Zhejiang Party, the Chu Party, and then the Donglin Party and the eunuch Party. It can be said that the country has no peace and the people are suffering. If Mr. Zhang had been in charge of the government for another ten years, how could this result be."

Jiangling County Magistrate Chai Shuo then realized that His Majesty Zhu Youxiao’s intention was to rehabilitate Zhang Juzheng, otherwise, he would not have said good things about Zhang Juzheng every sentence, and his praise was continuous.

Although Chai Shuo, the magistrate of Jiangling County, had fiercely opposed Zhang Juzheng's new policy because of measuring the land, now that His Majesty mentioned it again, he could only nod in a submissive way.

At the same time, in order to increase his good impression in front of His Majesty Zhu Youzhai, Jiangling County Magistrate Chai Shuo had to hurry to guarantee: "Please rest assured that I will definitely renovate Zhang Ge Lao's mansion and ancestral hall to commemorate Zhang Ge Lao's contribution to our Ming Dynasty."

"Well, just be sure you understand," Zhu Youxiao said, and then instructed Li Mingrui: "The right minister of the Ministry of Justice, who caused Zhang Ge's hometown to starve countless family members to death due to his detention, and the eunuch of the Silijian, etc., must be severely punished! If they are still in the world, let them taste the taste of starving to death. If they have passed away, they will collect their property to expand the strength of the state-owned capital of the Ming Dynasty."

As Zhu Youxiao said that, he personally walked to Zhang Juzheng's spiritual throne and personally posed three incense sticks for Zhang Juzheng.

Zhu Youxiao reassessed Zhang Juzheng as a loyal minister of Bandang, and also ordered people to renovate the Zhang family's mansion and ancestral hall, and the news spread like wildfire as soon as it was published by the Ming Dynasty.

Among them, Zhu You proofreaded the comments on Zhang Juzheng caused an uproar in the world. No one expected that His Majesty would re-overthrow Emperor Wanli's denial and demotion of Zhang Juzheng, but chose to affirm Zhang Juzheng again. Everyone could see that His Majesty is to rehabilitate Zhang Juzheng to affirm the new policy by rehabilitating Zhang Juzheng, and pave the way for the future promotion of the new policy, and to encourage more ministers to participate in the reform of the new policy, especially those officials who are determined to reform.

But as a result, Zhu Youxiao's actions aroused the vigilance of a large number of conservative or selfish officials. They felt that they had to stop His Majesty's crazy behavior, otherwise they would have to face the danger of losing their privileges, just like those vassal kings.
