Soldiers Card System

It was still dark on the fifth shift, and people had begun to move in front of the Forbidden Gate. The lanterns in twos and threes had already been stationed in front of the Forbidden Gate. The officials of the various ministries of Zhu Zi Chong had already stood in front of the Forbidden Gate and were preparing to make an early morning.

Today is the Great Dynasty Meeting held once every ten days. Officials of the six ranks and above in Beijing, or those who have been granted a privilege to participate in the upper court, can enter the palace to participate in this Great Court meeting.

Xiao Cong got down from the sedan chair, wrapped in a brocade to the gate of the palace, and ordered the lieutenant who guarded the gate of the palace.

"Go, bring me a chair."

The school lieutenant looked around, and there were dozens of officials who came, among which there were more than a dozen high-ranking officials from the third rank. If you need chairs, don't plan to do your own ministry.

Kneeling on the ground numbly, the school lieutenant smiled tiredly and said:

"General, you see that my shoulders are still comfortable on my back, and I just sit on it. The final minister is in my body and I dare not leave without permission."

Xiao Cong took a look at the school lieutenant and scolded angrily:

"Your grandma's, I still tell you not to move."

Dong Cheng got off the horse, looked around in the crowd, saw Xiao Cong at the door, and came over in two steps.

"General, why is it difficult to be successful, this is no more than a blink of an eye."

Xiao Cong snorted in his nostrils:

"Okay, I know that this is the rising star of your military department. You value it. Young generals who are going to enter the guards in the future. Come on, there was an accident over there, and I hurriedly came over."

Dong Cheng waved his hand to the lieutenant. The lieutenant stood up and waved his hand. The imperial army near him shrank back and left the two of them.

"The Wangjiang naval battle is over. General Su Ping defeated the two battleship fleets of the Intels with one block and two."

"That's a good thing. This kid Su Ping has a hand in naval battles. He can win more with less. How many people have died?"

Xiao Cong said with a flash of red light on his face.

Dong Cheng shook his head: "The deaths and injuries were heavy. The battleships were as high as 90%, and the navy was even more than 70% killed. The warships were badly damaged and need to be overhauled."

"Even a tragic victory can't be counted."

Dong Cheng looked at Xiao Cong hesitantly. The expression on his face was very clear. Wangjiang's naval forces were greatly damaged. Now they have lost their ability to deal with naval battles. At the beginning, the Ministry of War wanted to build two warships and was stuck by the Husband. It's a neck, this time, Old General Xiao, you must come forward.

Xiao Cong's expression was also a little ugly.

"This victory is for the soldiers in exchange for their lives. The dead sergeants should be given preferential treatment. The disabled sergeants may be transferred to logistical services or local patrol camps. The aftermath must be handled well."

The palace gate suddenly opened, and several lanterns lined up at the gate of the palace, and the little **** headed by it was screaming.

"My lords, your majesty has an order, early morning."

Xiao Cong patted the clothes and looked around. It was a bit early this morning, and most of the adults hadn't arrived. Zhou Ping and Qian Qianyi, a few old men, came late.

Soon, the officials of the civil and military squads stood in order, and under the guidance of the **** with the lantern, they walked towards the Palace of Qinzheng.

Inside the palace, the bedroom.

Li Qing dressed in court clothes and sat on the side of Su Lu, his face a little ugly.

"In the Wangjiang battle, we damaged nearly 60% of the navy, and the only warship was severely damaged. From now on, what will we do to deal with the blockade of the British at sea?"

Su Lu teased Xiao Su Yi who was up early, his tone a little helpless.

"Soldiers come to block, waters come and earth cover, recruit soldiers without soldiers, shipbuilding without ships."

"It came with Su Ping's report to the Czech Republic yesterday. Didn't there be more than a dozen navy soldiers who came to the Ministry of War to report on their duties, and called them to the Great Court to celebrate their merits in the palace, and they suffered many scars."

Li Qing was a little stunned, and he pondered for a while and said:

"This, isn't it in harmony with the system?"

Su Lu glanced at Li Qing:

"Then there is no way. I can only wait for the British to fight. After all, our country is too big and there are wars happening everywhere. The Ministry of Households is also poor to deal with it. I want them to transfer the silver to the Shipbuilding Department. There is no reason. no."

Li Qing hesitated again for a while, unable to make up his mind.

Changning came in and asked for instructions and said:

"Your Majesty, the ministers have begun to enter the hall, it's time to get up."

Li Qing put down the hand-warming bag, gathered the sleeves of his robe, got up and walked out, before leaving the bedroom gate, suddenly said to Su Ge next to him.

"Su Ge, go, go to the Ministry of War and invite the navy generals who have returned to Beijing to report. All the disabled are invited. The ones with the most scars are ready to go to the palace to praise their merits. Let them think about what those scars are. Coming."

Su Ge led the order.

Li Qing entered the Palace of Qinzheng and sat down on the throne.

Beginning with Qian Qianyi, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, played the affairs of these days, and ordered Li Qingsheng in advance.

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu Yuwei, the Household Department Shangshu Zhouyuan, and when it was the turn of the War Department Shangshu Zhouping, as expected, the first thing was the Wangjiang naval battle. The navy was severely damaged and needed to replenish soldiers and ships. Please your Majesty's decision to approve.

"The warship that was damaged by 80% of the battle this time, it can be said that after this battle, there are no naval forces outside of Wangjiang Port, and the protection of the coast can no longer be guaranteed. Wherever the British want to go ashore, they will go ashore. ."

"Your Majesty, this is the autumn of life and death. I hope that your Majesty will approve to build more warships, absorb soldiers, restore the combat effectiveness of the navy as soon as possible, and win the battle against the British and special forces above the sea."

Zhou Yuan made a generous statement, asking for money out loud.

Li Qing glanced at Zhou Yuan, Shangshu of the Household Department. She naturally agreed to pay the money, but the Ministry of Households did not agree and it was useless to speak again.

Zhou Yuan went on duty: "Your Majesty, sir, according to Zhou Shangshu, my household department has no objection, and has already allocated a stern warship and twelve small grasshopper boats. This is enough. "

"A few days ago, Your Majesty approved the salaries and silvers of the soldiers in the Southern Territory Combat. The total of the guards in the first place was only 120,000 taels. The amount of money allocated by the Ministry of Household for shipbuilding to the Ordnance Mansion is already 690,000 taels. I The amount of money Han spent on military conquests throughout the year is only 1.5 million taels, which is one-third of it all at once."

As he said, Zhou Yuan took off his hat and held it in his arms with a look of exhaustion.

"Your Majesty, the minister said Zan Yue, I'm out of money, and my household is really out of money."

Su Ge entered the hall, and all the sergeants summoned arrived. Among them, three were seriously injured and unable to move, and five had broken legs and arms.

Li Qing waved his hand and pointed directly at the dispute between the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households. If the quarrel continued, this place would become a vegetable market.

"Come on, please come to the palace."

When Li Qing's voice fell, the dispute in the palace was quiet.

The Ministry of War, the General Staff House, the Ordnance House, the Household Ministry, and all the officials all looked at the entrance of the main hall in amazement.

Please come to the hall, your majesty is angry, you want to throw all the quarreling adults out of the hall?

Li Qing stood high above the throne and looked at the ministers in the hall, feeling helpless. It must be right to allocate money to the Shipbuilding Department, but Zhou Yuan was right, and the household was really out of money.

I can only send hope to the praise of these sergeants...
