Chapter 924 924: The fifth year of Yuanhuang (Part 4)

"Tianshu Guard, Tianxuan Guard, Tianji Guard, Tianquan Guard, Yuheng Guard, Kaiyang Guard, Yaoguang Guard... This name sounds pretty good." She raised her hand and took out a list of military generals under the tent, and the latter followed their respective strength, military merits, prestige, and martial arts fortunes... Chen Tang made these data into a simple data map, which looked clear and clear.

She looked at the list and pondered for a long time.

Chu Yao always sat quietly on one side and waited.

Until Chen Tang put down the list: "It is temporarily planned to let Chu Jie be the general of Tianshu Guard, Gong Shuwu is the general of Tianxuan Guard, Wei Shou is the general of Tianji Guard, Tianquan Guard is the general of Tiansu, Yuheng Guard is the general of Yufeng, Kaiyang Guard is the subordinate to Yunce and Xian Yujian, and the last Yaoguang Guard is the subordinate to Xun Ding. Each guard has two deputy, let them recommend it themselves..."

These are all after she thought about them carefully.

Yun Ce and Xian Yu Jian have too shallow foundations. They are completely military generals from the bottom and have no private military force.

If they did not consider the problems of their master, the two could be treated as confidants. However, because the master and the gods had an inexplicable relationship, Chen Tang could not let them command the guards separately out of caution, but she could not let them down because of this problem, especially Xian Yujian - he was among the top three among the generals when he followed him, and he could not treat them unfairly. After thinking about it, he would not have any objection to put their brothers in the first guards.

Bai Su is currently the strongest and most experienced female martial artist except herself, and should occupy a single guard.

If it weren't for the women's camp that could carry the banner, at least two of the seven guards would be left for the female generals. However, Chen Tang was not in a hurry. She planned to insert Lu Ji and others into other guards, and it would be legitimate to promote them in the future. Alas, let's do it slowly.

Chu Yao asked, "Where is Xu Wenshi?"

In terms of qualifications, Xu Wenshi is not inferior.

Chen Tang waved his hand: "He is still too young."

Of course, this is just an excuse.

Xu Quan was young, but his age was not the youngest among the generals, and his time to join was not short. He was Xu Jie's cousin. His hardware was not strong enough, but his overall soft power was very strong. It was a bit surprising that he failed to earn a general.

But Chen Tang also has his own considerations.

It's still the same reason. Xu Jie and Qin Li and the others are close to each other, and their interests are closer than other court officials. Chen Tang trusts Qin Li and believes that Xu Jie has followed her promises for so many years, protecting He Yin so well, and his character is trustworthy. Both are rational people. But Chen Tang trusts the people around them, and these are unstable factors.

Xu Jie has a good character, which means that the Xu family has good character?

Even the head of the Xu family, Xu Jie could not control every clan member who was in the same mind as him, and it was even more impossible for them to maintain absolute calmness and rationality. Instead of testing them with interests, it would be better to sharpen them again. In Shen Tang's vision, Xu Quan was at most the leader of the Seven Guards and Two. With his current age, he could reach this position and occupy the light of early investment.

Or enter the Rufu.

She plans to set up another Siru Mansion outside the Seven Guards.

It just so happens that the names of the four divine beasts can be used.

Green dragon, white tiger, vermilion bird, black twilight.

Chen Tang said: "Grind it again..."

Chu Yao also thought of the joints and sighed: "Everything is arranged by the lord. Wen Shizheng is in the most reckless and passionate age. He is inevitably a little impetuous. It is better to polish him and make him calmer. As for what he will do in the future, it depends on his personal ability."

After saying that, neither of them mentioned this again.

There are not as many military generals under Chen Tang's tent as literati. The ingredients are purer and simpler to arrange. Soon, they settle down the people. However, this list needs to be discussed with others to see where it is not comprehensive enough and perfect.

When Chu Yao retreated, his personal guards also came with midnight snacks.

"Zhizong, have you thought of a place to go?"

She lowered her head and tasted the hot porridge.

The porridge is thick and the rice grains are crystal clear.

The craftsmanship of the kitchen is getting more and more exquisite every day.

Chen Tang has been busy dealing with various matters these days. Lu Ji and Yang Ying have been taking turns to work by their side. All the gains are first-hand information. Naturally, she knows the seven guards and four commanders she had imagined. As Chen Tang's personal guard, Lu Ji has a low sense of existence but is a confidant.

When Shen Tang had no old age, no small family, and no blood relatives of the same race, some sensitive positions would naturally be handed over to the personal guards' confidant. Lu Ji would not be unclear about these things. As an enlightened king, Chen Tang was also willing to respect the wishes of his subordinates.

Lu Ji said: "Ruan Mansion."

But he wanted to speak but stopped.

Chen Tang sucked two mouthfuls of porridge: "Tell me, don't hold it in my mouth."

Lu Ji was encouraged and continued to say: "Entering the Mansion can protect the safety of the master, but the last general knows that martial arts is still necessary to fight in practice, and hopes to go to Zhechong Mansions regularly to take turns."

Chen Tang thought it was something that was hard to describe.

He said: "Warriors are the important weapon of the country, and they need to be prepared for danger in times of peace. They are polished from time to time but placed in the arsenal. When needed, they will rust long ago. I am sure if you want to take the rotation. Not only will the generals take the rotation, but Zhechong Mansions in various places also hold regular battle exercises to maintain the highest combat power at all times... You must be killed with one blow when you show it out!"

The border troops can still fight and maintain their state.

The mainland is not good, and they will only become lazy after a long time.

Chen Tang didn't know how long this balance could last. All she could do was to improve her strength as much as possible, accumulate more confidence, and use the strongest state to deal with the future. She did this, and she would also do the same in her tent until she was invincible!

Lu Ji listened to Chen Tang's murmur.

This is a good way to maintain combat power.

Breaking the relatively closed environment of Zhechong Mansions in various places, let them see the strength of other Zhechong Mansions and have to roll up.

only--

Lu Ji gritted his teeth and asked: "Is the national treasury sufficient?"

Chen Tang: "..."

Those who are poor in these years are Chen Tang's private treasury, but the national treasury has been in good condition. At least for so many years, I haven't heard Wu Hui say that he is short of money. If I remember correctly, Wu Hui asked the same question not long ago - um, is he actually calling him poor?

Temptingly tell yourself that the treasury cannot withstand the creation?

Chen Tang pursed his lips: "Go and send me the Minister of Revenue here."

Xun Zhen, the Minister of Revenue, heard the order, had not yet reacted at first. When he remembered his current identity, he felt an inexplicable ominous premonition in his chest. He cleaned up and got up to go to Chentang camp and came up to greet him: "I have met the Lord."

The Minister of Revenue has received all the remarks, so it is reasonable to change the words.

Chen Tang pushed a book to Xun Zhen.

Said: "Look."

The tone is mysterious, arousing Xun Zhen's curiosity.

When Xun Zhen picked it up and opened it, Chen Tang's slightly tentative words came from his ears: "Hanzhang, look, how many things can our current family achieve? According to the lowest budget..."

Xun Zhen just glanced at it briefly.

With a snap, he covered the book crayon.

He said with a serious expression: "No, I don't have money."

Chen Tang: "…The treasury is still rich."

Xun Zhen, the Minister of Revenue, took office, and Chu Yao sent all the accounts he had previously been responsible for. His accounting method was improved during the Heyin period, and every data was clear and clear, allowing Xun Zhen to see the skills of butler Chu Yao, which was indeed great! Every account was calculated clearly. Even so, Xun Zhen still had to stay up late and re-check the reconciliation.

The Ministry of Revenue has not been built yet.

He had no deputy, so he could only roll up his sleeves.

The only thing that is thankful is that he is a literary scholar, and he is extremely efficient in assisting with literary assistants, otherwise he would have been busy for ten days and half a month. When Chen Tang sent someone to find him, he had just finished counting and was about to start making a budget - the salaries of officials are all from the treasury, and the money must be reserved. The construction of the capital requires a large amount of money. The pensions of soldiers who died in wars over the past year must also keep up, and another large amount of expenses. In addition, he also reserves a fund for disaster relief in various disaster situations in various places in the coming year...

Oh, and there are also military expenditures in the Beimo area.

Make money and get it all.

Spend money and use it like mud and sand.

Xun Zhen took several deep breaths and tried hard to explain to Chen Tang: "If it were the original state treasury, it would be enough, and there would even be a lot of surplus every year. However, today, there are more people waiting for salary in the lord's tent, more soldiers, more city passes waiting for repair, and more local government offices waiting for recruitment and reconstruction... So the treasury is not enough!"

There are too many babies and not enough breasts!

Not to mention a few items written in the book.

Which one is not a money-burning job?

The soldiers of the government are self-sufficient and have to allocate additional military pay. They use this batch of manpower and pay for them... Xun Zhen certainly knows the benefits of doing this, but this benefit costs money! Not to mention that he will follow the Zhechong Mansions in various places to maintain combat effectiveness. Even the two smallest Zhechong Mansions will be a war of two or three thousand people, including the venue, supplies, losses, manpower, and medical care... Which one is not money? If you don't say anything, the exercises must have a lottery to be worth fighting, right?

You have to pay for the lottery!

When Xun Zhen thought of Chu Yao's accounting, his account was in good condition, and it was his turn to manage the accounting. The treasury was deficit all day long...

Who can stand this?

Chen Tang gritted his teeth: "Can't you think of a solution?"

Xun Zhen understood Chen Tang's temperament. The so-called "thinking a solution" is the subtext of "I don't care about it, I don't care, you have to do it for me." He is not Chu Yao's spoiled, and said, "The Lord, look at how much money can Zhen's body be sold?"

The implication is that there is no way.

Now everything is in trouble, and there are hungry mouths everywhere. No one can make money and recover their blood. The national treasury will have to wait for the autumn harvest next year. Xun Zhen is very confident that the lord attaches importance to agriculture, and a large part of the national fortune is used in this regard, so as to ensure a bumper harvest in various places as much as possible. If the farmland output in the entire Kangguo country can maintain the level of Longwu, the taxes collected from the autumn harvest next year will definitely be considerable, and the national treasury will be rich.

now?

It's absolutely impossible!

Chen Tang was asked by Xun Zhen’s question.

Her face turned dark: "I can't move it out?"

Xun Zhen simply settled all the items with her with his fingers. Official salaries vary according to their grades. Because Chen Tang likes to replace part of his salary with welfare, the actual expenditure of money is not as high as other countries. However, the pressure on the treasury is still very heavy. Sergeant pensions cannot be cut, capital construction costs cannot be cut, and disaster relief funds cannot be cut...

This hasn't mentioned the small expenses yet.

Construction expenditures for colleges in various places, teaching teachers in various colleges, doctors and medicinal materials in medical centers in various places...
To be continued...
