Steam Daming: Stop calling me to supervise the country

Chapter 9 Reviewing Soldiers

In the western suburbs of Yingtianfu, the summer is scorching hot, with green hills, green willows, safflower and green grass, and the summer in the south is hot and humid.

Under the hot sun and wearing a dark red flying fish suit, Zhu Zhanchang really wanted to die. He couldn't understand what the ancients thought. How good is it to wear short sleeves in this weather, but three layers inside and three layers outside. of.

Today is the day to follow Zhu Di to review the soldiers. Zhu Zhanchang and his third brother are wearing new flying fish clothes. They are full of energy. Hanfu.

I also like it if it were me. Of course, Heisi will always be the white moonlight in Zhu Zhanchang's heart, and he has a good heart.

Immediately, he made a big wish that everyone in the Ming territory could wear black silk, of course women.

There are about 5000 standing soldiers in the camp in the western suburbs, and there is a battalion in each of the three directions of Yingtianfu, east, west, and north. Together with the troops in the city, the standing army of Yingtianfu is formed, with a total of 2 soldiers.

Zhu Zhanji was by Zhu Di's side, while Zhu Zhanyong and Zhu Zhanchang were by Zhu Gaochi's side. Today was the second uncle of the Han king, Zhu Gaojiu, but the third uncle Zhu Gaojiu was the only one.

The soldiers in the review were led by King Han. King Han was good at fighting and liked to be in the barracks. He went down and led the team in person during the review.

Zhu Zhanchang looked drowsy, and when he said that, the review was actually a simulated battle of soldiers, training weapons, and changing formations. Compared with the current military drills, it was far worse.

Regardless of the uniformity, the spirit is far inferior to the modern army.

Although the heavy armor is mighty, it will limit the movement of the soldiers.

But these armors are also part of the parade.

Because although there was a magic camp in the Ming Dynasty, the equipment was not enough, and it was still dominated by cold weapons. In this case, equipment such as armor was very important.

To put it simply, there is no problem with a fully armed soldier hitting three unequipped soldiers. If you cut someone without penetrating the armor, it will hurt a little bit.

Therefore, the armor has also become the content of His Majesty, and there is even a special display link.

Of course, not only Zhu Zhanchang was drowsy, but also his fat father. He didn't participate in the usual inspection, but I don't know why Zhu Xi had to pull him for this inspection.

Zhu Zhanchang was afraid of heat, and Fat Daddy was even more afraid of heat, but he couldn't lose the etiquette of the prince, and the fans of the maids in the back were about to fly.

After finally holding out until the review was completed, Zhu Di walked over with big strides. When he was not going to court, he liked to dress up in casual clothes in the military camp, which made him even more mighty.

Seeing Zhu Di coming, Zhu Gaochi hurriedly saluted: "Your Majesty..."

Zhu Di supported him: "No." The smile on his face was obviously very satisfied, and he pointed to the army behind him: "How about the prince, how is our Ming army?"

"Father, please don't call it that." Zhu Gaochi was called by Zhu Di and the prince immediately felt guilty, so he wanted to take two steps back and get in the car and go back to the palace.

Judging from Zhu Gaochi's understanding of his father, he usually has a bad face towards himself, often sternly urging him to lose weight and other things.

But when he is really polite to himself, when he has a smile on his face, that means trouble has come, and there must be something that embarrassing him that needs to be done by him, otherwise it will not be like this.

He would rather Zhu Di scold him a few more times than hear Zhu Di call him the prince with a smile.

Zhu Di pulled him over and hugged his shoulders affectionately: "Soldiers, Da Ming is mighty."

"Da Ming is mighty, Your Majesty is mighty."

The sound was so loud that Zhu Gaochi had already started to mourn in his heart.

"Gao Chi, these are all elite soldiers in a hundred battles, look at that kid, now he's a thousand households, and when he was in trouble, he followed me to kill the brave man, and the scar on his face was shot by an arrow. , Ming Da is a blessed person..."

Zhu Gaochi saluted: "Dad, if you have something to say, there is nothing your son can't do."

Zhu Di patted him on the shoulder and led him into the military tent, then said earnestly, "Gao Chi, it's been more than ten years since Jing Nan, and the young man who was twenty years old is now 34 years old. There are many injuries on their bodies, and they are too old to fight on the battlefield. They were all killed in the blood of the knife, and I just can't bear their miserable old age."

"Your Majesty, the DPRK has pensions for old and retired soldiers. The level of pensions varies according to their positions in the military."

"Gao Chi, I naturally know about the comforts of the DPRK and China. At the moment, my country is rich and the people are strong, and the wealthy households in the south of the Yangtze River even pay to be exempted from military service. In this way, the number of soldiers will be insufficient, and there will be fewer people who can recruit good warriors. How to deal with the crime of Bian Daming in other places." Zhu Di made the matter very serious.

Zhu Gaochi frowned and said nothing.

Zhu Di chased after the victory: "There is news from the north, and Oara is a little bit eager to move again. I plan to personally recruit next year, and at the same time, the Ministry of War allocates funds to increase the salaries of soldiers."

Zhu Gaochi thumped and knelt down: "Father, the court really can't afford so much money." He was wronged like a fat man weighing more than 200 catties, and his eyes turned red instantly.

Only his three sons and King Han were present, and King Han hurriedly stood up and supported Zhu Gaochi: "Brother, Dad is discussing things with you, what are you doing with your snot and tears, making the children laugh? ."

The King of Han naturally wanted to allocate more money, and the more he allocated, the more he received.

Zhu Di was displeased, and Zhu Gaochi said with a bitter face: "Nursing the people's livelihood, the people are prosperous and the country is strong, Your Majesty!!"

"You mean that I am cruel and tyrannical and prevent the people from recuperating."

On the surface, the King of Han defended his good elder brother justly and righteously: "Brother never meant that."

"Daming's frontier military expenditure has always been sufficient. After the Northern Expedition last year, the strength of Oara has dropped sharply. Even if the frontier is violated in a short time, my frontier officers will definitely be able to defend it, and His Majesty will fight in person." Zhu Gaochi wanted to stop Zhu Di this time, and asked him to cancel the imperial drive. The idea of ​​​​pro-sign.

The emperor's personal expedition will cost at least [-] to [-]% more than ordinary expeditions.

Zhu Di's face was completely dark, and Hao Shengsun jumped out at this time: "Grandpa Huang, it's not that my father is not allowed to go on an expedition, and the Owara clan is not an opponent of our Daming at all."

"That's right, Father, you can enjoy the flowers and the scenery more, and the son will go during the war." King Han patted his chest.

Zhu Di's face still did not improve, he looked at Zhu Gaochi coldly and said, "We will discuss the matter of the personal expedition. If Oara dares to violate our border, he will kill his clan and exterminate his species, only defending and not fighting back, when Daming is the cowardly Hui Song. Can't it?"

"Your Majesty, rest your anger."

Seeing this, everyone knelt down.

Zhu Di went on to say: "The Ministry of War allocates funds to increase the treatment of soldiers without delay. If you can't squeeze it out, it will be deducted from your salary in the East Palace."

After saying that, he walked out of the tent with a flick of his sleeves. This problem was completely thrown on his eldest son's head.

"Brother, I'm going to persuade the emperor." King Han also ran out.

Zhu Zhanji helped Zhu Gaochi: "Father, I'll go see Grandpa Huang first. I'll find a way with you tonight."

"Go." Zhu Gaochi waved his hand.

After the others left, Zhu Zhanchang walked up to Zhu Gaochi and said, "Father, my son has a solution."
