I am the king of the dead

Chapter 210

Yang Hong looked at Zhu Qiyu with a smile on his face. He had no idea that His Majesty had the habit of seeing him off, so he stood in the strong wind and watched the soldiers of Daming go to the battlefield.

He was quite surprised that His Majesty knew that the carts pushed by the soldiers were called Wu Gang carts.

Wugang chariot is a light vehicle with a towel and a cover. It can transport gunpowder, grain and grass and other supplies at ordinary times. It can be lined up in a row during battle and used as a camp. There are also four shooting holes for shooting with crossbow arrows.

The Wu Gang chariot of the Ming Dynasty was born out of the decisive victory chariot built by the second emperor Beishou and Zong Ze when he was staying behind in Kaifeng capital in the late Northern Song Dynasty.

Any armament does not come out of thin air, but rises from the ground.

Daming's Wu Gang Chariot is an out-and-out offensive weapon. In grassland warfare, this type of cart is the most useful. Even if it is temporarily stationed, it is excellent to form a circle to defend against the enemy with firearms.

During Emperor Taizong Wen's second Northern Expedition, he built 30 Wugang chariots to transport grain and grass with the army, and only then did he have a journey of thousands of miles.

It took six full years to gather enough strength. The first World War broke the backs of the Tatars.

For more than 40 years, the Tatars still haven't calmed down. Although Tuotuobuhua is still a Khan, they were overthrown by the Oirats.

Yang Hong also went out with the army back then, how heroic was Emperor Taizong Wen?
"Crossing the river, crossing the river, crossing the river, the eternal masterpiece." Zhu Qiyu took a deep breath. He not only knew the function of Wu Gang chariot, but also knew the origin of Wu Gang chariot. It was Zong Ze's decisive chariot.

Crossing the river were Zongze's last three words before his illness and death.

It is a pity that until Liu Futong's suicide three-way northern expedition, the Yuan Dynasty fell apart, and no Han army had ever crossed the Yellow River again.

Zhu Qiyu didn't speak anymore, this time there was melodious singing again, besides Yu Qian's blunderbuss song, there was also a red scarf song. Amid the sound of beating drums, the four soldiers left the two camps slowly.

Yang Hong returned to the lecture hall with His Majesty. Yang Hong's sacrifice of wine, now he has no military affairs, but to sort out the list of military students in the lecture hall next year and other matters in the lecture hall.

There are also some descendants of the old relatives of honored ministers who have not completed their studies, waiting for Yang Hong and others to teach and give them extra lessons.

If next year, the descendants of these old relatives who failed to graduate still fail to graduate, they will be sent to Kaiping Guards to guard the border for a year, and they will continue to be evaluated in the lecture hall when they come back. If they fail, they will be sent directly to Jiaozhi went.

Zhu Qiyu handled the official documents in an orderly manner. After Wang Wen, the general manager, took office, the words of the world on Zhu Qiyu's desk finally became orderly.

In the early morning of the next day, on the official road of Daming, the stage horses were galloping fast.

The postman leaned over and tried to maintain his balance. The horse was galloping on the road. There was a bell hanging around the horse's neck. When it was galloping, the bell could be heard two miles away.

After hearing the bell, the postmen of the water horse post and delivery station immediately began to select the post horses, turned on the horses, and immediately mounted the horses and galloped.

The speed of the front horse is relatively slow. When the rear horse and the front horse are parallel, the horses will not stop. On the horses, the postmen will deliver the official documents.

Then the front horse started to speed up and galloped towards the capital again.

Repeatedly, until the army reported to the capital.

There are nine post stations in Longchang and nine official road post stations in Daming.

And the farthest one of the nine official road stations is from the capital to Luchuan, which is about [-] miles away. The time limit for these [-] miles is [-] days, that is, it will take [-] days to reach Luchuan by the emperor's edict. time.

But beyond the deadline, it is expedited.

Expedited is the magnificent scene of countless postmen galloping on the official road of the Ming Dynasty. They galloped wildly and did not leave their horses when transferring official documents. The expedited deadline is forty days from Luchuan to the capital. more than five days.

This is because the road from Luchuan to the capital is not easy.

For example, the official road from Beijing to Shenyang is [-] miles, and the deadline is [-] days, but if it is urgent, it can be shortened to about [-] days.

The official road from Daming to Guangzhou is about 56 miles, and the deadline is 30 days, but if it is urgent, it can be shortened to [-] days.

The Ming Dynasty set up Huitong Pavilion in the two capitals, and served as the principal to manage the post roads, postmen and post horses in the world. The "Regulations on Yinghe Giving Posts" was the guideline, which was very complete, and even the post horses had retirement benefits.

For example, after running for five years without running to death, it will be upgraded to a BMW, raised in a post station, and no longer work until it dies of old age.

Post stations, post horses, and post pawns are the guarantee for the imperial power of the Ming Dynasty to touch the top and bottom of the Ming Dynasty.

It is the channel of the water flow of government orders. If the station is lost, what is the similarity and difference with losing the world?
The rushing postmen handed over the official documents to the Huitong Hall, and the generals of the Huitong Hall submitted them to the lecture hall. Yang Hongyuqian and others led the various departments of the Ministry of War, dismantled and inspected the military newspaper wax paint, and then handed over the small papers one by one. A small red flag was inserted on the geomancy map.

Yang Hong pulled out a black flag on the Kanyu map, which was a den of thieves near the Yanshan Mountains for more than [-] years.

Yang Hong said with a smile: "The first cottage has been razed to the ground by Marquis Wuqing with the cannons of the generals. The opponent's resistance is extremely fierce, even with guns. .”

"It's a pity to think of something good, Shi Heng didn't talk nonsense with them."

"Four military regiment battalions, strive, shine, practice, and show off. The troops are divided into four groups and advance alternately."

The entire Yanshan mountain range was handed over to Shi Heng and the Siwu Regiment Battalion he brought, and Shi Heng lived up to expectations and was the first to report the good news, and the advance of the Siwu Regiment Battalion was like a dragon crossing a river. Snakes, uproot them!
"Report!" The sergeant in the same hall handed another battle report to the ambassador of the Ministry of War. The Ministry of War immediately began to disassemble and inspect it, and translated it from the negative script to the positive script. Then the positive script was compared with the positive script, and finally the translated military newspaper and handed it over to Yang Hong.

This time it was the Four Braves Battalion led by Yang Jun, the eldest son of Yang Hong.

Yang Hong pulled out another black flag, and said with a smile: "Siyong Battalion also pulled up the first village. They went to Taihang Mountain. The terrain of Taihang Mountain is dangerous, and this speed is extremely fast."

"Report!"

Not long after, Yang Hong pulled out another black flag, this time it was Guangning Bo Liu An.

Liu An used to be the commander-in-chief of Datong. Zhu Qizhen Datong knocked on the door, but Datong Mansion did not open the door, but Liu An and Datong prefect Huo Xuan went down the city wall, intending to meet Zhu Qizhen, who was still the emperor at that time.

Later, he had to go to Beijing to plead guilty because of Zhu Qizhen's poisonous trick of killing three scholars with two peaches. Zhu Qiyu forgave him for his crimes and meritorious deeds.

Liu An can't be promoted to the rank of the bandit, but this is training, and if he trains well, he can fight well when he fights against the tiles.

This time Liu An went to Gouzhu Mountain, which is the mountain range where Yanmen Pass is located, to fight bandits, and it was as if he had returned home. He himself was the guard of Datong, so he was naturally at ease.

The battle reports from Daming continued to gather in the lecture hall, Zhu Qiyu didn't give any orders, he couldn't let Yang Jun's four-yong battalion, the general's cannon of the Bravery Battalion and Shenji Battalion move ten meters away, right?
That was outrageous.

He can still participate in the overall strategy and stamp it.

The specific combat still depends on the generals of the Ming Dynasty to play on the spot, especially the terrain, formation of troops, and camping.

If the imperial court has to ask when the sergeants will be honored, the generals should stop fighting.

Let's all make hard-core crops in the capital together, how good is it?
Putting down the banditry was extremely quick, almost a crushing victory!
Accompanied by Ye Bushou's burning of wasteland on the grassland, the capital of the Ming Dynasty seemed to be able to smell the faint smell of gunpowder in addition to the smell of burning fire.

Only one month later, Shi Heng had already attacked from south to north, and wiped out the bandit dens in the entire Yanshan Mountains. In order to get more head rewards, Shi Heng did everything he could, even hiding in the tunnels of the stockade. All the thieves were caught out.

His Majesty issued a killing order to prevent killing good men from taking credit. In order to make more money, Shi Heng had no choice but to dig three feet into the ground to catch the bandits.

Shi Heng asked the class teacher, because in the bandit den in Yanshan, it is really impossible to catch even a single bandit.

A few days later, both Yang Jun and Liu An asked for class teachers.

This time the Ming army returned to the camp extremely quickly, it only took more than ten days, before the first snow fell on the capital, they returned to the barracks in the three earth cities outside the capital.

This is a rapid march, and the Ming army marched at the fastest speed to check whether there will be any lagging behind during the marching process of the army.

Zhu Qiyu asked Jin Lian, Shangshu of the Ministry of Household Affairs, to allocate enough grain, grass and meat from the five hundred warehouses of the capital, and sent them to the three earth cities.

Alcohol is not allowed in the army, but it is allowed to drink during rest and bathing, so some wine will be rewarded, and it will not be sent to the military camp, but to the military camp on the other side of Tucheng.

Zhu Qiyu slammed this punch out, and then took it back, to test whether the generals trained in the martial arts hall are useful, whether the post station in the Ming Dynasty conveys the military information in a timely manner, and whether the commander can strictly restrain the troops of each team. Death, what is the combat effectiveness of the Ming Dynasty's Beijing camp?

Combat power is a very metaphysical thing, but the Ming army did implement orders and prohibitions. The old records gathered by Lizheng and commanders from all over the country to Wang Wen, the commander-in-chief, also exaggerated the good military discipline of the Ming army. Did not receive any harassment.

Zhu Qiyu was very satisfied with the speed and efficiency of the Beijing camp's rapid departure and return to the camp.

Similarly, the concubine general he was worried about, using the name of the emperor's disciple to act recklessly, did not happen.

Cracking down on bandits and bandits, and cracking down on gangsters and professional beggars in the city, is to constantly cut off the wings of powerful families, and this kind of cutting is a persistent national policy.

"Reward the three armies, and in a few days will be awarded outside the Deshengmen!" Zhu Qiyu looked at the entire map, all the black flags were removed, and finally settled down a bit.

The army is the ballast of the court.

This punch is like a tiger!

Zhu Qiyu's army was divided into three groups, the [-]th Regiment Battalion, and the Beijing Division suppressed the bandits, which directly shocked the world.

Sun Zhong, who was far away in Shandong, stared blankly at the news in his hands. He couldn't believe it. He looked at his own silver market. The loss was due to trying. If something really happened...

The Emperor Daming let alone a fist, stretched out his finger, and it killed him.

Sun Jizong asked dully: "How is this possible? It must be hype! Exaggeration!"

"About [-] bandits in Gouzhu, Taihang, and Yanshan were wiped out in one and a half months. How could this be possible! Even we only know a few of them. How did Your Majesty know?"
