"Ding'er, how many Youzhou troops do you support in Youzhou?"
Watching the conversation between Zhao Ding and Zhao Chongyuan, the father and son.
Queen Ma also realized the seriousness of the problem.
Zhao Qingzhan even just said that Uncle Jiu was so fierce!
"Isn't it just one hundred thousand?"
Zhao Ding said with a sarcastic smile.
"If you were a war horse, it would be worth 100,000 yuan."
Zhao Chongyuan said angrily.
Zhao Ding: "..."
Son of a bitch, that bastard revealed my family background! ! ! !
Zhao Qingzhan looked at Zhao Ding in astonishment: "One hundred thousand war horses? Uncle Emperor, don't you think that the Youzhou Army has at least nearly 30,000 cavalry?"
He doesn't understand the business of running a country, but he understands military matters.
The heavy cavalry has three horses per person, and the light cavalry has two horses per person.
One hundred thousand war horses.
This works out to at least more than 30,000 cavalry.
There are at least 8,000 heavy cavalry here.
"Uncle Jiu, you are too rich."
Zhao Qingzhan looked at Zhao Ding almost as if he was dreaming.
His eyes were instantly filled with little stars.
What is the concept of 30,000 cavalry?
He is a pig and can push over half of Nanchen.
"Uncle Emperor, are you short of men in Youzhou? I...I...I can do it. You don't need to give me any senior officials. You can give me a heavy cavalry vanguard battalion and I will lead the charge for you."
Zhao Qingzhan looked at Zhao Ding with excitement.
He didn't want to be an emperor, how could he be as happy as a general?
"Go! Go! Go...."
Zhao Ding pushed Zhao Qingzhan aside angrily.
Queen Ma also looked at Zhao Ding with a ghostly look on her face: "Ding'er, do you really have 30,000 cavalry in Youzhou?"
Compared to Zhao Qingzhan's straightforward temperament.
Empress Ma understood even more clearly what a terrifying number of infantry the 30,000 cavalry alone would need.
That would require at least 100,000 to 150,000 infantry.
Not to mention that Youzhou alone could not support this number. Even if Daqian could support so many soldiers, it would still have to pay a huge amount of military salary every year.
After all, raising an infantry requires the tax burden of 20 farmers, a light cavalry requires the tax burden of 100 farmers, and the heavy cavalry costs at least 1,000 people.
This is only the head fee and does not include equipment fees.
What is the cost to support such an army?
How terrifying that would be.
"Mom, it's not that exaggerated. How did I get so much money?"
Zhao Ding had a sneer on his face.
"Haha, it's not that exaggerated. Are you still pretending to be here? I know what Youzhou is like. If it weren't for you, I would have gone to Youzhou. Maybe one day, you and I would I didn’t even know you rebelled against me.”
Zhao Chongyuan looked at Zhao Ding angrily!
"Then I have to do something to protect myself, right? I can't be the emperor anyway. If one day I have to cut down the vassalage and I don't have any means to deal with it, then wouldn't I be very resentful?"
Zhao Ding spread his hands and looked at Zhao Chongyuan innocently.
"Uncle Jiu, I can give you my position as the crown prince. How about you give me the title of general? The requirements are not high. Just give me 10,000 cavalry and 30,000 infantry. I will immediately conquer Qingzhou in Nanchen." I will capture Beiliang for you, as long as you order it, I will do it!"
Before Zhao Chongyuan could speak, Zhao Qingzhan looked at Zhao Ding expectantly.
Zhao Ding: "..."
Zhao Chongyuan: "..."
Queen Ma: "..."
"Ruying, bring me the whip."
"Hey, eh, eh, a child's words are unbridled, a child's words are unbridled."
"What are you talking about? The position of the Crown Prince is one that can be given to you. Let's see if I don't kill him today..."
"Grandpa, I was wrong, I was wrong."
"Snapped!"
"Nine lives, Uncle Nine!"
…
Listening to the screams that sounded almost like killing pigs.
Zhao Ding covered his ears and sat obediently aside.
Watching Zhao Qingzhan jump up and down in Kunning Palace.
At this moment, he finally understood why his father and mother were so anxious to call him back.
After working on it for a long time, the root cause is here...
Good guy.
If you don't want the position of prince, you should change it to the title of general.
Do you think you are a martial arts sect from another world?
Is the Haw Leopard Room started?
Not long after, Zhao Qingzhan knelt on the ground with a bruised nose and swollen eyes, wiping tears.
Sniffling, looking at Zhao Ding with tears in his eyes.
Zhao Ding: "( ̄ー ̄)"
"Have you finished watching the play?"
Zhao Chongyuan stood beside Zhao Ding panting, holding a whip in his hand.
"Look...look...finished."
Zhao Ding swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked at Zhao Chongyuan.
"Then let's get back to your matter. You said that you were colluding with the enemy in Youzhou. I don't blame you. After all, Youzhou is poor. I am willing but unable to do so. You are trying to make a living for the sake of the people of Youzhou, and you also You haven’t done anything detrimental to Da Gan, but you have hundreds of thousands of collectors. Just because of this, not to mention it’s a rift, even if you cut off your head, it’s not an exaggeration!”
Zhao Chongyuan said angrily: "So I will give you three choices now. The first is to seize the vassal state in Youzhou. You, the King of Yan, will be demoted to a commoner. From now on, you can go wherever you want, let alone Youzhou. I don’t care about you even if you are from Beiliang.”
"I choose the second option!"
Zhao Ding swallowed and said.
Zhao Chongyuan grinned and said: "The second rule is that if you intend to rebel, your home will be confiscated and you will be executed."
"You really have to kill me, your son."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ding immediately quit.
"You are going to turn against me and your father, why can't I kill your son first?"
Zhao Chongyuan looked at Zhao Ding with a smile.
Zhao Ding: "..."
"Then number three!"
Zhao Ding looked at Zhao Chongyuan angrily.
Hearing Zhao Ding choose the third item, Zhao Chongyuan said with a smile: "The third item is that you go to the Imperial College obediently for me. When will you learn how to govern the country, when will you go back to Youzhou!"
Zhao Ding: "Why don't you tell me when I will trick that girl from the Xu family back to Prince Yan's Mansion and become our Zhao family's daughter-in-law, and when will I go back to Youzhou?"
"Can you say this openly?"
Zhao Chongyuan said angrily.
Zhao Dingshen nodded in agreement: "Well, what you said is right!"
"You guys."
Queen Ma smiled helplessly.
Seeing Zhao Ding nodding, Zhao Chongyuan said with a smile: "Okay, now that the matter has been decided, let's do it like this. From today on, Qing Zhan will follow you. As for how to discipline it, you can decide it yourself. , Just don’t beat him to death.”
"I?"
Zhao Ding poked himself and looked at Zhao Chongyuan in astonishment.
"if not?"
Zhao Chongyuan rolled his eyes angrily.
"Uncle Jiu, from now on, you will be my boss... Bah... you will be my boss. Whatever you say will be yours. I will never give you a second thought, nephew. As long as you are willing to give me a big brother..."
Zhao Qingzhan grabbed Zhao Ding's hand with excitement.
However, before he could finish the last sentence, Zhao Chongyuan's eyes had already fallen.
Zhao Qingzhan was so frightened that he immediately shut his mouth.
