15: Zhu Yuanzhang is confused, there is a problem with our health system?

Zhu Di was scolded by Zhu Yuanzhang for a while, and temporarily forgot about 'Chengzu', and turned his attention to Zhu Youzhen.

After Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, Zhu Di took over the words and pointed to the source of the problem, "How many warriors are there in the Chongzhen Dynasty......?"

Speaking of this, Zhu Di realized that he was stupid, if there was enough food and grass, how could Zhu Youzhen not even have the confidence to resist the thief Li Zicheng.

He patted his forehead and continued: "You just tell me if the current Chongzhen Dynasty still has the strength to fight." "

In this regard, Zhu Youzhen was silent, he sat on the throne all day long, and heard the news that there was either a shortage of food and salary here, or there was a military disaster in another place.

As for how much combat power the Chongzhen Dynasty Daming still mobilized at this time, in fact, Zhu Youzhen had no bottom in his heart.

If not, Zhu Youzhen would not have chosen to hang himself after Li Zicheng broke the Beijing Division, but should think about how to break the situation and save the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Gaoxian took Zhu Youzhen's expression into his eyes, and knew how poor Zhu Youzhen's control over the grassroots and officials was.

Later generations often said that Zhu Youzhen's killing of Wei Zhongxian was a bad move, but the key to the problem was whether Zhu Youzhen killed Wei Zhongxian or not.

It's about whether someone can take over Wei Zhongxian's position and have Wei Zhongxian's ability.

Zhu Youzhen killed Wei Zhongxian too quickly and ruthlessly, so that the factory guards representing the imperial power were directly abolished, forming a huge power vacuum.

Without the dirty knife hanging on the head of the factory guard, wouldn't the Donglin Party be lawless and catch Zhu Youjian's goods and flicker

?

Again...... If you just kill Wei Zhongxian, this stupid thing is stupid and you will abolish Jinyiwei.

Jinyiwei has a very bad reputation among the civil servants, why is that? Because Jinyiwei is the eyes and ears of the emperor, he can listen to the world!

The existence of Jinyiwei made the officials tremble, and they had to be careful in doing things, and they couldn't be too presumptuous.

Losing the factory guard and abolishing the brocade guard, this Zhu Youzhen is not allowed to sit on the dragon chair and be deaf and blind.

Zhu Youzhen, who abolished the Jinyiwei, actually realized the seriousness of the problem and tried to reorganize it afterwards, but the Jinyiwei he formed was just an empty shell, without any deterrence.

Thinking of this, Zhu Gaoxian shook his head and sighed: "At this time, the Chongzhen Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, if you talk about combat power, it should be the first mite Qing. "

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the map and wondered: "This mite Qing is not located in the bitter cold land of Liaodong, why can its combat power still become the first in the era of the Chongzhen Dynasty?"

"According to Gao Xian, Da Ming should have a lot of firearms at this time, and these things are not ...... that Tartars can make."

Speaking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and asked in a low voice, "Could it be ......

?"

"That's right. "

Zhu Gaoxian sighed, "In the Ming Dynasty of the Chongzhen Dynasty, the most famous ones were the Jin merchants, and there were eight of these rival merchants. After the mite Qing occupied the country, these people were named the Eight Great Locust Merchants by the Tartar Emperor. "

"These are the same people who have been selling food, ordnance, and clothing to the Tartars for many years...... As long as you can think of it, there's nothing they don't dare to sell. "

"Shameless!" Zhu Di shouted angrily: "Could it be that Da Ming was too harsh on them and didn't let them do business?"

In this regard, Zhu Gaoxian just shook his head, and did not dwell too much on the issue of businessmen.

In his opinion, betraying the country is betraying the country, and these people are always going to be killed, and it is useless to talk about it.

Saying too much will deepen Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di's antipathy towards businessmen.

You must know that if you want the country to be rich and the people strong, business development is indispensable.

"Of course. Zhu Gaoxian shook his head and said, "You can't blame the merchant for the reason why Mite Qing is strong." The Chongzhen Dynasty's corrupt border army also sold a lot of things to the mite Qing Tartar, including the important weapon of the red-coated cannon. "

"What!?" Zhu Youzhen was dumbfounded, "These people even dare to sell red-clothed cannons?"

In Zhu Youzhen's consciousness, most of the red-clothed cannons in Jiannu Tartar were captured in the war, but he didn't expect them to be sold by the border army!

Zhu Yuanzhang's brows were already wrinkled, the border army was so rotten, it was not good news, he looked at Zhu Gaoxian and said, "Could it be that the entire border army is rotten?"

This question involves the issue of the guard system set by Zhu Yuanzhang, but Zhu Gaoxian still decided to say it.

"Grandpa Huang, the guard system you set up actually began to erode after the Yongle Dynasty. "

"By the time of the Chongzhen Dynasty, the Northern Guards and even the border army, the middle and high-level levels have been rotten. The food and salary allocated by the imperial court must first go through the hands of the major generals, then the middle level, and finally leave some soup and water for the soldiers below. "

Not only that, but these soldiers had to plant the land in the only time they had to sow grain. It would be fine if all the food grown belonged to the soldiers themselves, but even these things had to be in the hands of the generals. "

"And Mites Qing, in fact, with the strength of the Chongzhen Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, they could have been cleaned up a long time ago. That's why it can't be extinguished, it's nothing more than four words - raising your own respect!".

"As for the guards in the south and other places, not to mention. Most of the capable soldiers, under the oppression and exploitation of middle and high-level generals, chose to become refugees. And those who can't escape can only be exploited to death!".

In fact, the problems mentioned by Zhu Gaoxian have existed since ancient times, and the corruption of the army has always started with corruption.

Corruption is human nature, and the corruption of the system is the predetermined end.

From the moment this system came out, it was destined to only adapt to it for a period of time, and it was not suitable for long-term implementation.

The voice was in his ears, Zhu Yuanzhang's face was as black as ink, and the system of Wei was his pride, but he didn't expect it to be corrupted.

In Zhu Gaoxian's words, Zhu Yuanzhang also tasted other flavors.

Although Zhu Gaoxian didn't say it explicitly, Zhu Yuanzhang was able to understand.

The corruption of the health center system is also related to the household registration system. Even...... It also has a certain relationship with the officialdom rules set by oneself.

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Gaoxian thoughtfully, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart for Zhu Gaoxian's boldness.

It's not that no one has noticed the problems of the health office and household registration, but in the Hongwu Dynasty, absolutely no one dares to mention it in front of the old man.

Regardless of the emotions of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di, Zhu Gaoxian's words continued, "After talking about the army, let's talk about the group of Ziwenchen of the Chongzhen Dynasty." Except for a few Wenchen who can be counted by hand, most Wenchen only cares about their own interests. "

"What country is ruined, in the eyes of these people, it is just another alternation of the country. Change the emperor, change the master, they will still be officials. "

Wenchen's question has already been said by Zhu Gaoxian before, so I will not repeat it in detail here.

He changed his words and said, "As for the money and food that you mentioned just now, father, it is actually very easy to solve. "

"How to solve it?".

As soon as he heard this, Zhu Di became interested.

As the saying goes, everything is difficult without money, and the same is true at the national level.

The army can be corrupted, not to mention the rule of the officials of the Chongzhen Dynasty, in this case, don't want to collect all the money and grain.

Let these already corrupt people collect money and food, not to mention that they must be corrupt, these people even dare to make a fortune with the holy decree!

Increasing the amount of forced labor and increasing taxes were considered light, but the worst ones forced the people to sell their fields and buy their children.

Most of the 'dog emperors' scolded by the people in the last years of the dynasty came out like this.

Of course, it is not excluded that there are emperors who do put mud on the wall, such as Yan Gou after speaking.

When Zhu Di's thoughts were fluttering, Zhu Gaoxian's tone was quiet, and he said coldly: "Raid the house! As long as there is an army with strong executive power, starting from controlling Shuntian Mansion, it will raid the homes of those corrupt officials and silverfish!"

"This method is good!" Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his palm and agreed, "To deal with corrupt officials and corrupt officials, you should be ruthless, these dog things are cheap!"

The aura of the two emperors was in full swing, and the hall was filled with a sense of tranquility for a while.

Zhu Youzhen was a little confused, and said: "But how can the army that the grandchildren in the capital have little complete trust to raid their homes? Even if they raid their homes, the stolen silver will still go into the pockets ......of those corrupt officials and corrupt officials."

"Stupid! stupid!".

Before Zhu Youzhen finished speaking, Zhu Di scolded him with a scolding on his head, "You don't, don't you have the three of us? When your help button is vegetarian!".
