The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 200 His Royal Highness Resurrected

Of course, Zhu Ying's drills are not to benchmark against the military parades of later generations. Even the current elites of the Ming Dynasty will have to persevere in hard training for at least half a year.

It only needs to reach the level of Zhu Ying's military training. For now, it is completely enough to deter the tributary country.

What's more, there are still more than three months before Zhu Yuanzhang's birthday, so it is absolutely possible to organize a grand military parade.

And after Zhu Ying practiced in the palace for the first time, a rumor began to prevail in the palace, which Zhu Yuanzhang had never thought of.

"That's the big brother. Am I dazzled? That's the big brother."

"Whether His Royal Highness is resurrected, or His Royal Highness passed away, is actually a scam. Why is this?"

"That's His Royal Highness. After yesterday's practice, although I was very tired, I still went to the Hall of Renzhi. The ones placed in the Hall of Renzhi must be fake."

"Maybe it just looks like His Highness the Crown Prince?"

"Silly, I'm ashamed to be with you. Yesterday's practice was all imperial guards. I know several hundred households among them. Except for His Royal Highness, who is qualified to practice imperial guards?"

"Yes, it must be His Royal Highness, no doubt, the training of the imperial guards, the emperor will never hand it over to a stranger casually. I was close to the training yesterday, so I can clearly see it."

At dawn the next day, many princes and grandchildren gathered together to discuss.

I have to sigh, the power of gossip is infinite, everyone was exhausted yesterday, but today they are all in high spirits.

The reason is entirely because of the gossip of His Highness the Crown Prince. They have lived in the deep palace for a long time, and there are relatively few news channels.

So when I saw Zhu Ying for the first time, it was directly defined as the resurrection of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"It's just how I feel, the eldest brother seems to be much younger." A prince said with some doubts.

"Nonsense, death and resurrection are coming, so what's so difficult about reverting to a child." Another prince said disdainfully.

In this way, everyone nodded in approval.

"Tell me, will the eldest brother come over today." A prince said.

"It will definitely come. The emperor asked us to follow the drill together. If it is not the eldest brother, who would have the courage. But speaking of it, this drill is very new, and it seems to have great power when walking."

A prince affirmed first, and then sighed a little, as if he understood the meaning of his father in his words.

All the princes nodded.

At first they were very resistant, but at dusk yesterday, all the formations began to conduct integrated training, and that scene was something that everyone will never forget.

The feeling of shock, especially when they participated in it, is more clearly experienced.

It's just a simple walk, line up, the majesty of the generals, and the deterrence of the army are fully exposed, which is simply unimaginable for them.

"I think the meaning of the father is to let us experience it for ourselves. In the future, we should use this method to train soldiers when we become queens."

"If there is such a large army for my use, then I will be the queen, and see who dares to disobey Wang Hua and directly suppress it. It is so comfortable."

The princes began to chat excitedly. Their greatest hope was to become a vassal king when they became adults.

According to the current regulations of Zhu Yuanzhang, the vassal king can have three guards and can also control an army of 800 people.

The number of soldiers training with them today is not much different.

After yesterday's shock, all that was left was excitement.

Of course, this is the treatment only for princes. Among the 30 people, there are only about ten princes, and the rest are grandsons who were concubines, looking at them enviously.

Even if they all belong to the royal family, there is a clear difference between them. Of course, the levels of princes are different.

"Brother Quan, why don't you say anything, the emperor values ​​you so much, I'm afraid it won't be long before you can become a feudal clan." A prince asked Zhu Quan.

Among these princes and grandchildren, Zhu Quan is the one with the highest rank.

Although Zhu Quan, as the seventeenth prince, is 14 years old this year, he is about the same as other princes.But last year, that is, the 24th year of Hongwu, he was named King Ning and the feudal land of Daning.

It was close to Mongolia, so many princes naturally understood their father's favor and envied him very much. At the same time, even the older princes spoke very politely.

"It's nothing, don't chat. It's almost dawn, and you should hurry back to the square team. The emperor must attach great importance to this. If the coach finds out and reports it, I'm afraid everyone will have no good fruit."

Zhu Quan was a little embarrassed, so he had to say a few words to let everyone disperse.

His embarrassment was not due to other periods, but everyone's speculation about the commander. As the few people who knew about Zhu Ying's existence, Zhu Quan couldn't directly reveal Zhu Ying's details.

Maybe there are some thoughts of the father in it, but I don't know how to talk to him after hearing everyone speculate that the elder brother Zhu Biao will come back from the dead and revert to a child.

Like Zhu Quan, there are also Zhu Yunqi and Zhu Yunxie.

Zhu Yunwen remained silent, and the princes and grandsons standing around all vaguely avoided, who in the palace would not know about the appointment of the grandson.

Zhu Yunxi's face was flushed red, and he wanted to tell the story of his elder brother many times, but he held back abruptly.

If he hadn't practiced too hard yesterday, he still wanted to go and play with his elder brother at night.

And hearing Zhu Quan's words, many princes also dispersed in a hurry.

Everyone has not been crowned king yet, and there is no place for the feudal domain. If the royal father left a bad impression in his heart and sealed up a dilapidated place, it is estimated that he would not even be able to support the guards.

The military salaries for the guards of the feudal king are all paid from the feudal land. If there is not enough money, food and taxes, even if there are three guards, they will not be able to support them.

In fact, apart from King Sai, most vassal kings seldom have three guards at full strength. Generally, those who have one guard are considered good.

If it is really poor, the quota of 800 people is actually no more than 800 people, so it will be a big deal.

Now it is not the Ming Dynasty after Zhu Dijing’s disaster. According to the rules set by Zhu Yuanzhang, in addition to the vassal kings, the county kings can also command troops. Although there are not many, it is basically a weaving of a guard, that is, a full staff of 600 people .

However, it is difficult for the vassal king to raise soldiers, let alone the county king as the heir of the vassal prince, most of them are only in name.

Except for a few who can achieve it, as far as the current Daming is concerned, it is considered good to be able to maintain the expenditure of the mansion, and [-]% of it is a face.

Besides, if the vassal king had many sons and brothers, even if he was a county king, it would be considered pretty good if he had a county with a small county as his fiefdom.

Of course, those who can live in the palace, even the grandsons of the emperor, are also the sons of the vassal kings, and the bastards are not eligible.

The concubine son of the vassal king was conferred the title of general of the town, and all the sons of the general of the town were no longer hereditary, and they were all reduced to generals of the auxiliary country.

They are also equipped with military power, but whether they can afford it or not depends on themselves.

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang treated all his descendants very well in terms of treatment. At least all descendants could get a salary in the court.

In other words, no matter how they live, the palace will be responsible for paying the money, including all the descendants of the Zhu family, and they will not starve to death.

It was the million-dollar royal family in the late Ming Dynasty, known as the Zhu Ming Dynasty, and that's why it came about.

It's just that Zhu Di himself is the superior vassal king, so he is worried.

Then they cut off the back road of these descendants, and they were not allowed to do anything, which caused the royal family to have no way forward. From birth, they had to eat and wait to die, and there was no other way but to make babies.

Obviously Zhu Yuanzhang didn't think so. In Zhu Yuanzhang's mind, whether it was military power or internal affairs, he should try his best to let the descendants of the royal family go, and his own family was the most reliable.

This is why Zhu Yuanzhang proposed to let Zhu Ying come to train all the princes and grandchildren.

These princes and grandchildren will be the mainstay of Ming Dynasty in the future.

Soon, the practice begins.

However, to the surprise of all the soldiers, after the formation was arranged, the first thing to do was not to stand in a military posture, but to eat breakfast.

This is very unexpected.

Even the soldiers of the emperor's personal guards have two meals a day. Breakfast is usually at eleven o'clock, and dinner is at four or five o'clock in the afternoon.

It's only early in the morning, why is there breakfast.

The big white steamed stuffed buns are still stuffed with meat and served with white rice porridge, which is really delicious.

Each soldier has three big buns and a bowl of porridge.

It was brought by the logistics soldiers, how could many soldiers be polite, they were already hungry after one night, and they ate it all at once.

There is also a time limit for breakfast, and the bowls will be collected after a quarter of an hour has passed.

Afterwards, the coaches knelt on one knee and began to shout: "Thank you Commander for the reward! Long live Ming Dynasty!"

Seeing the instructor, many soldiers took the lead. Obviously this is the arrangement of the commander. Wherever they hesitated, they all shouted excitedly:

"Thank you Commander for the reward! Long live the Ming Dynasty!"

"Thank you Commander for the reward! Long live the Ming Dynasty!"

"Thank you Commander for the reward! Long live the Ming Dynasty!"

Three consecutive beeps spread throughout the entire imperial palace, whether it was the harem, or Zhu Yuanzhang who was reading in the Jinshen Palace, or the civil and military officials who were queuing in front of Fengtian Gate, they could all hear it very clearly.

Feeling the excitement in this voice, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but tilt his mouth slightly, took a bite of the big white meat bun, and also took a sip of the vegetable and lean meat porridge.

His steamed stuffed bun and meat porridge were carefully made by the chef sent by Dasun. The aroma alone made Liu He who was next to him swallow his saliva many times.

Needless to say, the other little eunuchs who were serving had already secretly wiped the overflowing saliva with their sleeves.

Outside the Fengtian Gate, Lan Yu stood at the head of the five sense organs, and when she heard this voice, her face was filled with joy.

Of course, Lan Yu knew about the practice of the imperial guards, including the Xuanjia guards.

But so far, Sapphire has not been seen.

What he was happy about was not the result of the drill, but that Zhu Ying had begun to control the military power, which meant that the time when Zhu Ying could be named grandson was not far away.

In the past few days, Lan Yu went to the morning court to have a drink with the Huaixi nobles who were still in the capital. It seemed that some of them were the leaders. Basically, Lan Yu informed Zhu Ying of the situation.

Everyone is also very excited, which means that there is another object of allegiance.

But all generals are actually not very friendly to Zhu Yunqi, the main reason is that Zhu Yunqi's contempt for warriors is simply too obvious.

This also led to the lack of familiarity and intimacy between the general and Zhu Yunqi.

But if it was Zhu Ying, it would be completely different. With Sapphire as a bridge, in the hearts of many generals, it was completely their own feelings.

The current Ming Dynasty, under the rule of Zhu Yuanzhang, still belongs to the concept of emphasizing martial arts and despising literature, and most military generals treat civil servants like that.

That's why he has a much worse sense of Zhu Yunqi, who is close to civil servants.

In these respects, Zhu Yuanzhang certainly understood that if Zhu Yunqi had come to power, he would have massacred generals. Otherwise, just one Lanyu case would not have killed 5000 people.

Even for a famous general like Feng Sheng, who couldn't even find an excuse, Zhu Yuanzhang gave him to death in the end.

This is also to ensure that Sun Tzu can concentrate all the power in his own hands.

Zhu Ying left after the military posture.

Just leave the rest to the instructor transferred from Xuanjiawei.

Today's shout from the instructors was of course secretly operated by him, but he didn't say it explicitly, but only hinted at the two chief instructors of Qianhu who were transferred from Xuanjiawei.

Being able to get into a thousand households is generally not too bad in terms of worldly sophistication, a few hints are enough, and to be honest is too out of place.

It doesn't matter if the two thousand households don't understand Zhu Ying's meaning, as long as the two can understand.

After leaving the palace, Zhu Ying first went to the place where sweet potatoes were grown.

The sweet potato is still very important. In fact, Zhu Ying doesn't really want to come here. After all, there is no need to pay too much attention to crops like sweet potatoes. It's just that the old man is nervous and forces Zhu Ying to see it every day.

I am afraid that something will happen, this is related to the lives of tens of thousands of people in the future.

After the inspection, it is the Gunpowder Department that Zhu Ying is most concerned about.

The matchlock gun occupies an extremely important position in Zhu Ying's heart. It is a magic weapon that Ming Dynasty has expanded to the outside world in the near future.

Because in Zhu Ying's mind, in the past five years, except for the country of Wa, it is impossible to make a large-scale march in other places. Even in the country of Wa, the number of soldiers will be controlled at about 30.

Instead of an army of 60 or [-] at every turn.

The entire Ming Dynasty plus the soldiers in the field is more than 120 million, and the 60 army is half of the military strength of the entire Ming Dynasty.

In the last match, even if he wins, it will be hurting, the loss outweighs the gain, and will deplete Ming's own national power.

In Zhu Ying's mind, war is the continuation of politics, and meaningless wars are really unnecessary.

Once in history, Zhu Di, with an army of 60, conquered Mongolia five times, and almost wiped out Zhu Yuanzhang's family fortune, and he has not yet been able to conquer it.

It took an army of nearly 40 to fight Annan.

It would be a pity for the people of the entire Ming Dynasty, that is, later Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanji gave them a rest to recuperate, otherwise the Ming Dynasty would probably cause peasant uprisings everywhere.

With the matchlock gun, Zhu Ying can completely develop small-scale operations.

For example, the scale of tens of thousands of people is still very easy for Daming, without the slightest pressure.

And with the cooperation of matchlock guns, there are three thousand gunfire soldiers in ten thousand people. For many small countries, it should not be too easy.

And with the blessing of firecrackers, it can also develop effectively in overseas trade.

Like the colonization of later generations and the emergence of capitalism, Zhu Ying is ready to contain it, not in the form of private people, but in the form of royal chambers of commerce and the distribution of kings.

Finally, it was introduced into the territory of Ming Dynasty.

For example, in the territory once ruled by the Mongol Empire, Daming theoretically belongs to all inheritance, and the master is famous, so it can be entrusted to many princes and grandchildren.

It can also be used to export Han culture to the whole world, and to educate the barbarians from all over the world.
