Chongzhen raised his head and smiled kindly at Sun Chuanting!

"How is the defense of the capital?!"

"How is the capital's military equipment? Is it very corrupt? I want to hear the truth!"

Chongzhen stared and asked, he wanted to know if the Ming army was as bad as Su Chen said!

When Sun Chuanting heard this, hope rose in his heart. He was stunned by the corruption of the capital's army these days!

This is a mess at all!

He hastened to complain to Chongzhen!

"Your Majesty, the capital says it has an army of [-], but the actual number is less than [-], and most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled!"

"Besides, the iron sword and armor equipped with weapons are simply useless."

Upon hearing this, Chongzhen immediately became angry!

Hit the table hard!

"I was saving money to give money to the soldiers and horses of the capital! Where did the money go! What I gave was money for a hundred thousand troops!"

Chongzhen originally thought that the army in the capital was not as bad as Su Chen said, but he didn't expect that there were only [-] soldiers left, and the rest were empty-pay quotas!

He sewed and mended his clothes in Chongzhen and wanted to send money to the soldiers, but he was embezzled by others!

Since the Dongchang disappeared, these courtiers have become more and more presumptuous!

This Daming sucks!

No wonder the immortal master wants me to fight my way out!

This kind of court minister must be killed!

"I need your reforms in Chuanting's army, and you have to train a new army for me!"

"A new batch of new troops will be recruited in the capital, tentatively 1 people!"

"Replace the current Shenji Camp!"

"You will be in command directly!"

After finishing speaking, Chongzhen handed the militia training manual to Sun Chuanting!

Sun Chuanting took the manual and read it!

The more I look at it, the more frightened I feel!

"This, this, the method of army training is really amazing!"

He only glanced at it for a few times before handing it in, and then he was shocked!

There was a storm in my heart!

If they were trained according to this militia manual, even Jiannu might not be able to beat this batch of new troops!

"Your Majesty, the equipment of the new army is all firearms!"

Sun Chuanting said that although firearms were very common in the Ming Dynasty, but due to the low efficiency of muskets, they often exploded, resulting in low power, but the new army trained by Chongzhen this time actually used muskets and cannons!

This is what puzzled him the most!

Chongzhen remembered what the immortal master Su Chen said, that firearms are the greatest advantage of Ming Dynasty, and he must vigorously develop firearms, so he nodded!

"Chuan Ting, this time I will ask the best craftsmen in the entire Ming Dynasty to create a new batch of matchlock guns!"

"Look at the back of the training manual is the new musket we are going to equip!"

Hearing what Chongzhen said, Sun Chuanting hurriedly turned to the last page and read it!

"Flint gun!?"

Sun Chuanting has also used muskets, and he can see the difference between the flintlock and arquebus at a glance!

"Why doesn't this flintlock have a fuse?!"

As the name suggests, the matchlock gun is ignited with a fuse, and it is very troublesome to reinstall the fuse every time it is fired!

"That's the beauty of a flintlock, it fires without a fuse!"

"Just pull the trigger to fire the bullet!"

The flintlock gun is fired with flint, which is infinitely faster than the matchlock gun!

"what?!"

Sun Chuanting was horrified when he heard this!

If they are all equipped with this flintlock gun, the firing frequency will be greatly increased!

As a general, he immediately thought of the benefits of this!

Originally, the arquebus could only shoot one round when the opponent sprinted, but the flintlock could shoot ten rounds. What a big improvement!

If there are such a group of 1 people equipped with flintlock guns, even if there are [-] enemy troops, he will have the confidence to defeat them!

"Your Majesty, this kind of food and equipment, and this one tael of silver per month, this..."

Sun Chuanting thought that Chongzhen could not have painted him a big cake. How much was the budget for these one hundred bronze cannons alone? At least it cost millions of dollars. Does Ming Dynasty have so much money!

Last time Chongzhen begged ministers to raise donations because of tens of thousands of taels of silver!

"According to this standard, our Daming treasury will be filled immediately!"

There was a sneer on the corner of Chongzhen's mouth!

There will be a batch of money in the account soon!

After Sun Chuanting left, Chongzhen said to Wang Chengen!

"Go, call Zhou Kui to me. The start-up capital of Dongchang and Shenjiying still needs the full support of my father-in-law!"

As Chongzhen spoke, he was still playing with the pistol that Su Chen gave him!

"I heard from the immortal master that this pistol can kill people from a hundred meters away. I don't know if it's true or not!"

"It seems that I have to find someone to test the gun first!"

After a while, a plump Zhou Kui walked in wearing mended clothes!

"His Majesty!"

"Yue Zhang, get up, you're doing well these days!"

Chongzhen said with a half-smile, Zhou Kui's heart felt cold when he saw it!

"Thanks to Your Majesty's blessings, although I have no money left at home recently, the thought of sharing all my money for His Majesty's worries makes my heart very happy!"

The fat on Zhou Kui's face kept trembling and said flatteringly!

"Oh? That's really hard for my father-in-law. The 3000 taels of silver you donated last time solved my urgent need!"

Chongzhen's expression remained unchanged, and Zhou Kui felt a bad premonition in his heart!

"It is the blessing of the old minister to be able to share the worries for His Majesty, Your Majesty!"

Seeing Zhou Kui being so brazen, Chongzhen couldn't help it!

He picked up the teacup in his hand and threw it at Zhou Kui!

"Good luck to you, you bastard, it's so miserable to hide from me!"

Chongzhen gritted his teeth, the roots of his teeth hurt from hatred!

It is this group of ministers who have become the king of subjugation. This time Chongzhen will not give face to anyone, not even Yue Zhang!

Damn you have to die!

Zhou Kui was stunned by this blow, and blood kept dripping down his forehead!

"His Majesty……"

He raised his head blankly, looking at Chongzhen in disbelief!

Since his daughter married Chongzhen, he has always treated each other with courtesy, what's wrong!

"I don't know why?! Wang Cheng'en brought Jin Yiwei to steal the Zhou Mansion for me. Anyone who dares to stop him will be killed! I want to see how much black money my good father-in-law has garnered!"

Chongzhen said sternly, like a hungry wolf!

When Zhou Kui heard this, it was like falling into an ice cave in an instant!

His face was extremely pale!

Chapter 194 Kill Kill Kill!

Zhou Kui lay on the ground and didn't dare to look up!

Muttering to himself all the time!

"Your Majesty, for the sake of the queen, please spare our family!"

Knowing that his corruption has been exposed, Zhou Kui wants to impress Chongzhen with his emotional card!

When Chongzhen was the king of Xin, his daughter married him. It can be said that he has been going all the way. Chongzhen and his daughter have a very good relationship!

"Forgive you, who will forgive me!"

Chongzhen slapped the table, you can see the anger in his heart, he and Queen Zhou are extremely affectionate!

He always thought that his father-in-law was fully supporting him, but he didn't expect that he was being played around all the time. The whole court said that he was an upright official, but he didn't expect that everyone was getting richer behind the scenes, and only he, the emperor, was a poor ghost!

Chongzhen waited in the palace for the results of Wang Chengen's house raid!

After two hours, Wang Chengen walked in with blood on his face!

Chongzhen hurriedly asked with concern when he saw it!

"What happened to Cheng En?!"

Now for this eunuch who committed suicide with him, this is the person Chongzhen is most assured of!

"Reporting to Your Majesty, there was a man in the Zhou Mansion who said he was the eldest son of the Zhou Mansion who blocked the servants, and he had already been chopped off by himself!"

Wang Chengen said sinisterly!

Zhou Kui sat up all of a sudden, crying ghosts and howling wolves!

"What! Son, that's the queen's own brother, how dare you!"

Zhou Kui pointed at Wang Chengen with one hand and burst into tears!

He was old enough to have a son, and he valued this son very much. He didn't expect to be chopped off by an eunuch today!

Even Chongzhen looked at Wang Chengen meaningfully. He didn't expect that this very well-behaved little eunuch in front of him would be so ruthless!

However, he was relieved, the more ruthless a person is, the more people will be afraid of doing things!

Now Wang Chengen is sharing the firepower for himself, taking all the responsibility on him, and preserving Chongzhen's reputation!

"Cheng En, how much gold and silver does the Zhou Mansion have!"

Chongzhen wanted to know how much money his father-in-law had!

Is it as rich as Su Chen said!

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the slaves have dug three feet into the Zhou Mansion, and have seized all the gold, silver, jewelry, silver tickets and antiques in the Zhou Mansion!"

"It's just that the banknotes checked by the servant just now have exceeded 700 million taels!"

Wang Chengen was also taken aback by my number. A mere head of state without real power can have so much money, which shows the corruption of the Ming Dynasty!

"The bank notes are 700 million taels!"

Chongzhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry!

The laugh is that this time the national treasury is instantly plentiful, comparable to ten years of taxation!

The one crying is that this person is his father-in-law!

"Zhou Kui, do you know that Emperor Taizu invented a special punishment for corrupt officials!"

Chongzhen said with a half smile!
