Daming: Grandpa Emperor, please get up and sit on my throne!

"For Your Majesty, for the Ming Dynasty... I would never repay you even if I die!"

After saying that, Wang Jinnian kowtowed three times. When he looked up, his eyes were red and tears were sparkling in his eyes.

Looking at Zhu Yunhuan's burning eyes.

It is extremely solemn and sincere.

This reaction was naturally within Zhu Yunhuan's expectations. To be able to come in here, the first requirement was a clean background and resume. Under his tactics of combining kindness and power, loyalty was inevitable.

Zhu Yunhuan raised his hand calmly.

He arranged it succinctly: "I have seen the latest achievements of the musket, and I have a clear idea of ​​it. So, there are three things you need to do next."

"The first one is to use the latest version of the musket as the standard and start full-scale production. The more production, the better."

"The second one is the formation and training of the Divine Machine Battalion, which I just mentioned."

"Thirdly, even though the current muskets are already powerful and their effectiveness has been greatly improved, this is by no means the best. I await your next iteration."

"Do you understand everything?"

All the difficulties have now been resolved, and the rest will be left to time.

These arrangements and plans had already been included in his planning budget, so Zhu Yunhuan made arrangements smoothly without any hesitation or doubt.

His voice was neither loud nor harsh.

But it seems like everything is under control.

However, it made everyone present subconsciously feel that "must not disobey".

In addition, after Zhu Yunhuan's previous intentional or unintentional CPU, this group of people had long regarded him as a god who "whatever he said was right, and as long as he said it was possible, nothing was impossible."

At this moment, no one suspected him.

All of them responded, "Yes! Your Majesty, we will obey your command!"

Zhu Yunhuan looked around and glanced at everyone, feeling quite satisfied - this was exactly the effect he wanted.

If they believe that something can be accomplished, they will do their best in this direction without any hesitation. This is the highest efficiency.

but.

After he looked around, he looked back.

But he suddenly noticed that everyone else's face showed only obedience, respect, determination, eagerness to try... and many other expressions, but Wang Jinnian's face showed a slight glint.

"What's the difficulty?" Zhu Yunhuan asked directly.

The formation of the Shenjiying, which Wang Jinnian was in charge of, was the process of completely transforming Zhu Yunhuan, the trump card, into a real and indestructible king bomb.

Zhu Yunhuan was of course extremely concerned and would not allow any mistakes to occur.

Wang Jinnian's eyes flickered, and he slowly stepped forward and confessed truthfully, "Your Majesty, I do have something on my mind, and I would like to boldly ask for your approval."

"You say." Zhu Yunxun said.

"This Alchemy Division... is the most secretive and important location in the world. The situation in the Ming Dynasty is still unclear, so maintaining the absolute secrecy of the Alchemy Division is a matter of course not to be neglected. However, since I want to form the Divine Machine Battalion, I need sufficient manpower."

"The Alchemy Department today."

"Excluding the various craftsmen and the Taoist priests from the Chemistry Department, there are over 500 firearmsmen in total. Some of them are from the Armament Bureau and the Military Equipment Bureau, not the military. Even those firearmsmen from the major Ming Dynasty prefectures have their own strengths, and not all are skilled marksmen... There are only about a hundred or two hundred who can be trained as firearms... And how many of them have the potential and qualifications to fully meet the requirements of the Divine Machine Battalion, I cannot say."

"So, this person has..."

Having said this, Wang Jinnian stopped abruptly, with a look of embarrassment and hesitation on his face. He glanced at Zhu Yunhuan with a flickering gaze and did not dare to continue.

but.

Although he swallowed the last words.

But Zhu Yunhuan still understood what he meant completely.

To put it simply, it is one sentence:

A good cook cannot cook without rice!

The Alchemy Department is surrounded by an iron wall, separating the inside and the outside. Not even a fly can get in or out. This is for the sake of keeping secrets and making plans before taking any action.

But with so many people inside, even fewer are actually useful. If they want enough qualified people to join the Shenji Battalion for study and training, and ultimately to form and expand the Shenji Battalion, they can only select and choose from outside.

However, due to the high confidentiality and importance of the Alchemy Department, Wang Jinnian took these into consideration and did not dare to speak it out easily, which made him hesitant and embarrassed.

Because I immediately understood Wang Jinnian's thoughts.

So Zhu Yunhuan didn't get angry, but directly pointed out what Wang Jinnian hadn't finished saying: "There aren't enough people, you want to go outside to join, right?"

What I was thinking was revealed.

Wang Jinnian suddenly looked terrified.

He cupped his fists and said, "The Alchemy Department is too important and confidential. I dare not break this rule, and I am even more apprehensive. So I can only ask Your Majesty to make the decision."

There's more to this than just muskets. The methods of steelmaking, the miraculous abilities possessed by the Taoist priests in the Department of Chemistry... all of them are of great importance.

Zhu Yunhuan pondered for a moment.

Then he smiled faintly and said, "Haha, the issue you mentioned is indeed based on my careful consideration of the current situation. What's wrong with it? Just think about doing the things I have instructed you to do well. You don't have to panic, and I won't blame you for anything."

"Instead, you brought this up..."

"It reminds me of something."

Zhu Yunxun said thoughtfully with a smile on his face.

But everyone could hear from his voice that he was neither distressed nor embarrassed by the question raised by Wang Jinnian. He was not even confused about "whether to keep it completely secret or make an exception for the Shenji Camp."

It was as if... he immediately had the best of both worlds.

Just like he always does.

"Your Majesty, have you made a decision?" Wang Jinnian couldn't help but feel curious and asked tentatively. At least he felt that this matter was really difficult to handle.

He was loyal and determined not to leak secrets.

But what he has is what he has. From Zhu Yunhuan's point of view, as long as people can move frequently in and out of the Alchemy Bureau, it means there is a risk of leaks.

This inevitably creates a dilemma.

If Zhu Yunhuan directly used the name of the emperor to search for qualified archers and send them in batches to the Alchemy Department - this would be too suspicious - not because of anything else, but because of the absolute trust and reliance on the Huaixi nobles that Your Majesty created... In other words, this would arouse the vigilance of many people.

At present, Zhu Yunhuan’s trump card has not yet been fully formed, and conflict is the worst option.

Think about it.

There's no good way to handle this matter.

Facing Wang Jinnian's question, Zhu Yunhuan also directly told him: "Yes, how to deal with this matter, I have actually already made plans a long time ago, but I didn't think about it before, so I didn't think about it, haha."

While speaking, Zhu Yunhuan had his usual gentle smile on his face, looking calm and relaxed, without any reluctance or guilt.

In fact, he didn't feel guilty at all.

As early as last year when he ascended the throne as emperor, Zhu Yunhuan was on guard against the Huaixi nobles and was secretly preparing a solution - first stabilize the Huaixi nobles, and at the same time recruit and expand the Jinyiwei. In addition, there was another big move in secret: in the name of hunting, he secretly contacted the Minister of War Ru Zheng, and asked Ru Zheng to make plans and preparations in the suburbs of Yingtian within the scope of his ability.

At that time, Zhu Yunhuan not only arranged other things, but also focused on arranging this matter.
