Chongzhen pointed to Phi Dao.

"The purpose is to build a city on Phi Island, surrounded by walls."

"Build five hundred gun emplacements, each equipped with a red-clad cannon!"

Shen Shikui slapped his ears vigorously.

Did I hear you right?

The entire Phi Island was built around a week to build a wall, and 500 gun emplacements?

Impossible, impossible.

Where did His Majesty get so many green bricks and concrete?

"Your Majesty, you must have been joking just now!"

"When did you joke with you?"

"All the soldiers and people took action, three meals a day of white rice is enough, meat and esophagus are enough, and every month it is still five taels of silver!"

The military and civilians on Phi Island, they used to eat gruel twice a day.

Now with such good food treatment, they work very hard.

If three meals of large white rice are enough, and the meat and vegetables are enough to be put in the Sui Dynasty, let alone build the Grand Canal, even if the Grand Canal is dug into Siberia, the people will not complain.

In the feudal era, many soldiers could work desperately for two meals a day.

If there is really enough rice, meat, and vegetables, the soldiers are not just ordinary soldiers, but dead soldiers.

Throughout the Ming Dynasty, ordinary soldiers were paid seven taels of silver a year.

Ordinary long-term workers, or workers, pay five taels of silver a year.

Therefore, Chongzhen offered the workers five taels a month, and the workers worked very hard.

The monthly wage of five taels of silver is almost twelve times the wages of ordinary workers.

Not to mention letting them build the city walls and repair the forts, now let them take kitchen knives to cut the Eight Flags soldiers, they will not turn back.

Chen Hongfan and Shen Shikui froze.

Five taels of silver a month's wages?

That's scary, right?

"Your Majesty, is five taels of silver a month's wages too much?"

Chongzhen rolled his eyes.

"Much? Isn't there work to do every day? Including the refugees in Jingshi Division, they may have no work after the construction of houses and warehouses! "

"This is poverty alleviation in disguise!"

Chongzhen's words made Chen Hongfan and Shen Shikui very moved.

During this period of the Ming Dynasty, most of the people who came out to work were free people without land, and they could only engage in long-term labor, help, etc.

Long-term workers and helpers receive 5.5 stone of grain per year, which is converted into 5.5 taels of silver in cash.

Too much silver is copied, which can easily lead to inflation.

Chongzhen could use rice and white noodles as a salary.

Officials and people were desperate to distribute grain directly as silver, because they no longer had to go to grain merchants to buy high-priced grain.

"Your Majesty is wise, but this silver is issued to the soldiers and civilians of Phi Island, and they can't use it!"

"Give them food directly!"

Chongzhen's words made the people completely boil.

"Your Majesty rest assured, we will definitely work hard and repair the walls and forts on Phi Island as soon as possible!"

Chongzhen thought about it, where is this?

"The grain and bacon left for you are enough for you to eat for a year!"

"When it's about to run out, Xu will send personnel to send supplies!"

"I plan to return to Jingshi and there are still many things to deal with!"

Chen Hongfan asked curiously, "Your Majesty, do you need a hundred Dafu ships from us to send you back?" "

"Yes, of course, you can send us directly to the other side, and take this thousand jin yiwei from Goryeo across the Yalu River, and then cross Liaodong to return to Jingshi!"

What?

Crossing Liaodong back to Beijing?

My ears aren't broken, are they?

Chen Hongfan looked at Shen Shikui and asked in a low voice, "Just now His Majesty said that he was going to cross Liaodong to return to Jingshi Division?" "

"Yes, I thought something was wrong with my ears!" , Shen Shikui softened his ears.

Chen Hongfan and Shen Shikui looked at Chongzhen in unison.

"Your Majesty, Liaodong has long been under the control of Jiannu Eight Banners, and you want to cross Liaodong to return to the Jing Division? You're not kidding, are you? "

Chongzhen thought for a moment, he could copy ten thousand war horses with a thousand brocade clothes.

Each Jinyiwei had ten war horses, and Jinyiwei wore stainless steel plate armor and stainless steel chain mail, and was not afraid of the Eight Flags soldiers who wore two layers of cotton armor.

If he could take Jinyiwei all the way through Liaodong, kill back to Jingshi, destroy their base in the hinterland of Jiannu, and take away the Daming people who were taken captive before, I don't know how Huang Taiji would feel? You might vomit blood in anger.

"I have a plan for a long time! They came to my Daming Pass before to loot, why can't we go to Liaodong to be dashing and dashing and then return to Jingshi? "

Crazy, Your Majesty is crazy.

Isn't this thousand brocade guards going to die?

Chen Hongfan grabbed Chongzhen.

"Your Majesty, can't you go! Take the boat directly back to Tianjin Wei, and then return to Jingshi to be safer! "

"Presumptuous! Xu decided to go to Liaodong to explore the strength of the Eight Banners of Jiannu, are you afraid? "

"Don't be afraid, isn't it just to take a stroll around the Jurchen Eight Flags Lair?"

When Chongzhen heard the old nest, he was instantly happy.

"Good! Worthy of being a good boy! "

Crazy, crazy.

"Your Majesty, then we will go crazy with you!" , Chen Hongfan and Shen Shikui asked together.

Chongzhen patted Chen Hongfan and Shen Shikui.

"Don't mix it up! Xu is planning to cross Liaodong and return to Jingshi Division! "

Chongzhen's tone was firm and unquestionable.

Chen Hongfan and Shen Shikui were a little hesitant, in case His Majesty died in battle.

Isn't Daming completely chaotic?

At that time, the civil officials supported the prince to succeed to the throne, and Daming completely became a pawn of the civil officials and the clans.

"Your Majesty, think well! What should Daming do in the future if you are gone? "

Chen Hongfan persuaded sincerely, and Chongzhen did not hesitate.

"Don't be afraid! It's a good idea! "

After Chongzhen copied all the materials needed by Phi Island, the materials for building the fortress on Phi Island, and the shells equipped with the red-clothed cannon, he took a thousand brocade guards and took the Dafu ship to approach the opposite shore of Phi Island.

"Report, Your Majesty, the Ming army Dafu ship has really landed, and the Ming army is landing!" , Ao Bai came to the marshal tent with a few scouts.

Huang Taiji had a terrible headache, remembering the hundreds of red-clothed cannons he had seen transported to Skin Island before, and the whole person was like sitting on pins and needles.

"Who is the enemy leading general?"

"How many soldiers and horses?"

"Is the Daifuku ship still on the shore?"

Ao Bai brought a few scouts up.

"Tell me about your investigation!"

A scout pointed to the shore.

"About a thousand or so Ming troops landed, and we don't know who took the lead!"

"Their Daifuku ship has gone in the direction of Phi Island!"

Huang Taiji looked gloomy.

"Dog Daming, it's really too small to look at me Daqing!"

"A thousand people, not enough for us!"

Huang Taiji was very confident and looked at the generals around him.

"A thousand people, who went to destroy them?"

Junta stood up: "The last general wishes to be a white banner and destroy them!" "

"Junta, you are a general under Azige!"

"Azig, who do you say to let go?"

"Just go from the Jun Tower!"

Junta nodded, and with the strength of one of his own troops, fifteen hundred people moved towards the shore.
