Me, traitor!Convincing people with virtue stunned the empress

"Prime Minister, another 20 troops have been conscripted this year, and my Da Zhou now has nearly 60 standing troops."

Zhao Yun said in a deep voice.

Yang Yi touched his chin.

Today, he specially came to visit the military camp that he hadn't been in for a long time.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Yun gave him a surprise.

A look of surprise appeared on Yang Yi's sharp-edged face.

"There are so many?"

Li Kaigu smiled and said, "Prime Minister, under the leadership of the Prime Minister, our Great Zhou army has encroached on a lot of the territory of the Qing Dynasty, making my Great Zhou from a weak and small country to one that no one dares to provoke... ..”

"My Da Zhou Erlang is proud of this, one by one enthusiastically signed up and poured into the army, saying that they want to do their best for Da Zhou. Ninety percent of the recruits recruited by the army this year are admirers of the prime minister... …”

Yang Yi smiled.

"It is also a good thing to have recruits. These recruits are the fresh blood of the army."

"With the continuous addition of these new recruits, our Dazhou can always maintain a strong military strength."

He looked at Zhao Yun, Xue Rengui and others.

"How many people has the Musket Battalion expanded to?"

Xue Rengui said in a deep voice: "Reporting to the Prime Minister, there are now 5 people in the Musket Battalion..."

Yang Yi raised his eyebrows, this number was really beyond his expectation.

He pondered: "With so many people, are there enough guns and ammunition?"

Although he knew that the Musket Battalion was developing rapidly, the scale was far beyond his expectations.

[106] The lie was exposed by Her Majesty the Queen!Yang Yi's proposal!Build a bank?

Xue Rengui said respectfully: "Prime Minister, don't worry, Your Majesty has allocated a lot of money for military expenses these days."

"The Musket Battalion is well supplied."

Yang Yi nodded slightly.

It seems that Her Majesty the Empress still cares a lot under her own "whip".

He pondered for a moment, and then took out the [Shenwu Cannon Design Drawing*1] he had prepared.

"Zilong, take..."

He handed [Shenwu Cannon Design Drawing*1] to Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun quickly took it.

Yang Yi smiled and said: "This is the design blueprint of the Shenwu Cannon, you hand it to the Military Weapons Supervisor and let them develop it as soon as possible..."

Zhao Yun said respectfully, "Yes, Prime Minister."

Xue Rengui showed doubts on his face.

"Prime Minister, what is this magical cannon?"

Yang Yi smiled and said, "It's a weapon that has a longer range than a musket and is more powerful than a musket!"

Xue Rengui was shocked.

In his opinion, muskets are already extremely powerful.

Unexpectedly, Yang Yi actually made a cannon that is more powerful than a musket!

He respectfully said: "The prime minister is really a god and a man, "six seven seven"..."

The corner of Yang Yi's mouth curled up slightly, and he gave instructions to the soldier next to him.

The soldier withdrew, and after a while, he brought an old man in.

Seeing everyone looked at him.

Yang Yi said in a deep voice: "This is Li Shizhen, Mr. Li, he is an excellent doctor."

"I brought him here today because of an important matter!"

Seeing Yang Yi's seriousness, everyone's heart trembled.

Yang Yi continued: "Although there are accompanying doctors in the army, they are not practical."

"For one thing, the number of doctors is scarce. If our army suffers a large number of casualties, they will not be able to take care of them at all."

"Secondly, the physique of a doctor cannot be compared with that of a soldier. It is difficult to sustain during the march and when saving lives and healing the wounded."

"So, Truth intends to ask Li Shizhen to teach the soldiers in the army the simplest medical methods such as hemostasis and bandaging, as well as some common sense of hygiene."

"When most of the soldiers understand these first aid methods, at least they can increase the chances of survival for themselves and their companions."

"Secondly, medical soldiers can be set up in the army. These medical soldiers must be able to read and write, and the number does not need to be too large. If there are 15 people in a battalion, the survival rate of soldiers on the battlefield can be guaranteed."

Yang Yi had already discussed with Li Shizhen, and he also informed Li Shizhen of some medical methods and common sense from later generations.

Let this well-known doctor sum up a set of medical first aid methods suitable for marching.

At least [-]% of the soldiers in the army must learn it.

At the very least, knowing some common sense can make you live longer.

After all, many people in the army died of wound infection or excessive blood loss.

If they can do certain treatment methods before being treated, their survival rate can be improved.

Secondly, if some soldiers are literate, they can learn some in-depth medical knowledge and become medical soldiers.

For the army, the importance of medical soldiers is self-evident.

When everyone heard the words, their expressions lifted.

They all said: "Prime Minister is wise."

They are all veterans in the army, of course they know the significance of Yang Yi's actions to the army.

...........

Purple Palace.

Shangguan Wan'er respectfully said: "Prime Minister..."

Yang Yi raised his eyebrows.

"What about Your Majesty?"

Shangguan Wan'er said: "Your Majesty is reviewing the memorial in the hall..."

Yang Yi nodded in satisfaction.

It seems that these days, the Empress Dowager is indeed walking on the path of Mingjun again.

He walked to Qianyuan Hall.

After a while.

"His Majesty........"

Yang Yi's voice suddenly sounded.

Wu Zhao was taken aback for a moment, she glanced at Yang Yi who walked in, and said lightly, "Why are you here?"

Yang Yi said with a half-smile, "Your Majesty doesn't seem to want to see me?"

Wu Zhao snorted softly, and raised her phoenix eyebrows.

"You sycophant doesn't see anyone all day long, I thought you were looking for fun again."

Yang Yi's eyelids twitched.

Gan!

This girl's intuition is quite accurate.

He said calmly: "Your Majesty has really wronged this humble minister."

"The humble minister is a great Zhou, but he sleeps all day long and sleeps all day long. He is dedicated to work and forgets to eat and sleep."

"Wei Chen has been running around in various places in Luoyang, supervising the reconstruction of Luoyang."

He almost believed even himself in what he said.

Wu Zhao glanced at him, with a strange expression on his face, and said, "Two days ago, I went to the newly built east city wall to look around, why didn't I see you?"

Yang Yi: "..."

He pondered: "Maybe I just missed it. When Your Majesty came down, I might have reached the south city wall and the north city wall."

"Really?" Wu Zhao said with a half-smile, "I even specifically asked the people on the east wall, and they said they haven't seen you for many days."

Yang Yi: "..."

Gan!

It was dismantled on the spot.

Isn't that embarrassing.

He said calmly: "Really, that may be because Wei Chen made a mistake in his memory, and he hasn't been to the East City Wall during this period of time."

The corner of Wu Zhao's mouth smiled: "But I went to the south wall and the north wall, and asked again."

"They all said that they haven't seen you in the past few days!"

Yang Yi: "......"

The atmosphere in the hall was quite quiet.

Yang Yi coughed lightly and said: "Your Majesty, the business of our Great Zhou has flourished, and the explosive increase of merchants has also brought many problems. For example, they need to carry large sums of money around, which is quite cumbersome. I have a It’s a good proposal, it can solve these problems of businessmen, and it can also bring a lot of business to the court, would you like to listen to it?”

Wu Zhao nodded seriously.

"Although your method of changing the subject is very blunt, I still want to listen to your suggestion..."

The corner of Yang Yi's mouth twitched, and he said nonchalantly, "Ahem, actually, the proposal of this minister is to build a bank!"

"Bank?" Wu Zhao raised her eyebrows, she looked at Yang Yi suspiciously...

Yang Yi smiled slightly and said: "Your Majesty, the so-called bank is to set up an institution controlled by the imperial court, and let the people deposit all their money in it..."

"And people can find banks to withdraw money in other places."

"In this way, they can prevent them from running around with money."

Although the development of banknotes in the Song, Ming, and Qing states has been developing, it is only limited to domestic.

At least, it is quite difficult to go to Song State or Zhou State with the banknotes of Ming Dynasty to spend. Most places do not support the banknotes of these other countries.

After all, fighting is very common these days, and no one wants to take risks.

For example, the Qing Dynasty has been destroyed, and those who hold the Qing Dynasty paper money directly vomit blood at a loss.

Only gold, silver and copper coins are hard currencies.

Therefore, when a large number of foreign merchants flowed into the state of Zhou, they inevitably brought heavy gold and silver with them.

Even encounter robbers because of these.

Wu Zhao frowned: "How do you get the people to deposit their money willingly?"

She understood what Yang Yi's bank meant.

But the crux of the problem is whether these people are willing to deposit their money in the bank.

Yang Yi smiled: "Your Majesty, the issue of issuing national debts was the same. Didn't they rush to buy them later?"

"As long as the bank sets the interest rate, the higher the deposit period, the higher the interest rate. This method of directly generating money will definitely attract many people..."

Wu Zhao's eyes lit up.

What Yang Yi said is completely feasible.

For ordinary people, their money basically does not flow in and out on a large scale.

In this case, the money will always remain in your own hands, and it will not decrease, but it will not increase either.
