King Luhuang of the Ming Dynasty: My father, Ming Taizu

Chapter 186 The true strength of King Lu Wei

Looking at Lu Wangwei who was waving a wooden sword and cheering.

Seeing Lan Yu downcast and helpless.

Looking around, the blue jade guards looked confused and couldn't even accept their failure.

As well as the civil servants and generals who were watching the battle in total silence.

Zhu Di suddenly said excitedly: "Old Shi! Teach me! Teach me how to train soldiers! Your fourth brother has been fighting for half his life and has never led such soldiers! If there were such soldiers, I could also be a wolf!

Think about it, if your fourth brother became the prince who sealed the wolf and lived in Xu, that would be an unprecedented feat! "

Zhu Tan laughed dryly when he heard this.

Fourth brother, the situation is too small!

What does it mean to be a prince who has sealed the wolf in Xu?
Before Zhu Tan could answer.

Crash-!
All around, whether it was Zhang Yu, Zhu Neng, Qiu Fu, generals from the Peking military, Feng Sheng, Fu Youde, Xue Xian and other princes and marquises, they all surrounded him!

"His Royal Highness King Lu, teach us! How did you train this soldier?"

"Such a powerful army, it is the best in the world! Your Highness, King Lu, please teach me how to control your subordinates!"

"Your Highness, Prince Lu, still needs a concubine? Your Highness has several daughters, all of whom are as beautiful as flowers. As long as Your Highness is willing to teach Your Highness, those daughters will all be His Highness's!"

Zhu Tan looked at everyone with unshaven beards and came up to them without any regard for dignity, and was speechless.

"Training this kind of soldier is very expensive. Everyone, can you afford it?"

Zhu Tan couldn't help but said.

The crowd instantly became noisy.

"It's the court's money that's being spent. It's the court that has the final say whether you can tolerate it or not."

"Didn't His Highness give the court a lot of money? That money is enough!"

"It's good to have such a strong army to take out to steal money! I heard that Yuan Ting took away countless rare treasures when he fled north. It doesn't take much. As long as there are 5 such elite soldiers, those Yuan Ting can be completely wiped out. Extermination, it won’t matter how much money you have to pay for it!”

Zhu Tan:
He knew that many of the generals who followed Zhu Yuanzhang in founding the country had fallen into disgrace.

Now that we see such a strong army, it is estimated that their bandit attributes have also been activated.

Zhu Yuanzhang originally saw Zhu Tan surrounded by many generals there, and he was watching the fun with a smile on his face.

When he heard that these generals were interested in his money, his eyebrows suddenly rose.

"What's going on? What a mess! You are all noble ministers of the imperial court. How can you be so noisy and chaotic? Hmph!"

After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, everyone hurried back to their places.

Emperor Hongwu still had prestige after all.

at this time.

On the martial arts field.

The martial arts exercise between both sides has ended.

At this time, Lu Wangwei was showing off his power and shouting repeatedly.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw this, he immediately beamed.

Look at how knowledgeable people are.

Even if you win, don't shout "mighty", you know to be loyal to yourself first!
It can be seen that this kid, Lao Shi, has always worked hard to educate these Lu Wangwei to be loyal to him!
Listening to Lu Wangwei shouting "Long live" in the audience, it seemed that all the glory belonged to him at this moment.

And this is also the most enjoyable thing about being an emperor!
It was all the efforts of my subordinates, but all the glory went to myself.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt a warmth surge all over his body, and he was inexplicably excited.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but stood up and said with a smile on his face: "Okay! Okay! Haha."

After saying that, he smiled at Zhu Tan and said: "Good boy, the soldiers you taught are good! We are very satisfied!"

Not far away, when Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhu Yuanzhang looking like this, he couldn't help but said sourly, "Ningy little man!"

Zhu Fan saw Zhu Ping's appearance and smiled slightly.

My second brother is afraid that he will become Lao Shi's mortal enemy.

Soon, Lan Yu and Guo Ying walked up to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Lan Yu's expression was a little embarrassed, even a little broken.

After all, it was agreed at the beginning that Lu Wangwei would be completely defeated, otherwise Duke Feng would definitely be in trouble, and it would be a good thing if His Majesty did not punish him.

Who would have thought that this time not only was there no complete victory, but it was a disastrous defeat!
Lan Yu felt extremely depressed when she thought that her dream of becoming a prince had come to nothing again.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't take it seriously.

To be honest, the performance of Lan Yu's personal guards has been extremely fierce.

It's a pity that they encountered such a strange army as Lu Wangwei.

Who would have thought that even though they lost all command, they could still cooperate perfectly without losing their position.

What is even more unimaginable is their combat power and endurance!
This kind of physical ability is even inferior to the Semu people who were famous for their physical strength in the early Ming Dynasty.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the combat skills and tactical level of Lan Yu's personal guards are obviously higher, but they were beaten to death by King Lu's guards.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Guo Ying in front of him and said with a smile: "Well done! The performance of Lu Wangwei surprised us all!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, my victory depends entirely on the sacrifice of my soldiers!"

Guo Ying's answer was neither humble nor arrogant.

Lan Yu suddenly felt unconvinced and said: "Wu Dinghou, your soldiers are just stronger because they are stronger! I will go to Shandong to recruit troops in a while! When it comes to fighting, I am still unconvinced! If the swords used are not wooden swords, , but a real weapon, we may not be defeated!"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled.

He didn't take Lan Yu's words seriously at all.

The more his subordinates compete, the emperor likes to see the results.

The most fearful thing is that the subordinates are like a pool of stagnant water, or simply monolithic.

If they don't fight anymore, how can he, the emperor, be the judge?
Hearing this, Guo Ying fell silent immediately.

In short, he has won today, and there is no need for him to engage in some verbal disputes.

This is true for both being a human being and being an official.

You can take advantage, but you can't take advantage of everything.

Otherwise, you will suffer a loss next time.

however.

Zhu Tan smiled slightly when he heard Lan Yu's words.

He has never had any intention of concealing his edge.

in contrast.

He even hoped to let everyone in the Ming Dynasty see the power of firearms and the role of craftsmen.

In today's Ming Dynasty, the first and most noble people are naturally the princes and nobles, followed by the scholars.

As for the others, they can all be classified as inferior people.

Such a social structure is unhealthy and abnormal.

Only when all strata of society have a path for advancement and can enjoy the benefits of national development can the entire society be dynamic and progress.

Zhu Tan's original intention was never to bring the entire Ming Dynasty into the industrial age by himself.

That is unrealistic and impossible.

Only by transforming the entire country from a social level can the Ming Dynasty truly get on the right track.

I was thinking in my mind.

Zhu Tan smiled at Lan Yu and said: "Yongchang Hou, I, King Lu, are more than just strong and strong! The current King Lu has not shown his true combat power! If he is really on the battlefield, , Even if all your people are killed, King Lu Wei will still be unscathed!"

The words fell.

Everyone was shocked.

Your Highness, King Lu, what does this mean?
When Lan Yu heard this, her face suddenly turned red.

It was already embarrassing enough to lose just now, but now being looked down upon by Zhu Tan was even more intolerable!
He couldn't help but sneer.

"His Royal Highness, King Lu, are you exaggerating? Although my personal guard is ineffective, it is still an elite in the battlefield! Even if it is defeated this time, your King Lu's guard also lost nearly 400 people!
Even the commander, deputy commander, and even less than a thousand households were wiped out!
With such a result, you actually think that on the battlefield, you can destroy us all without any damage? "

Zhu Tan smiled and said: "Not only that! Even if you have ten times more personal guards, the result will be the same!" After hearing this.

Lan Yu couldn't help but laugh angrily.

"So, His Highness King Lu regards your subordinates as trash? I will bring an army of 50,000 people and I will be completely wiped out by you, but your people will not suffer any losses? Haha"

This is looking down on people!

Isn’t it just a win?

Madness!

Not only Lan Yu, but also everyone else frowned when they heard Zhu Tan's words.

"His Royal Highness, Prince Lu, won once. Isn't this too arrogant?"

"This Lu Wangwei is indeed tyrannical, but the blue jade personal guards are not bad at all! How can it be possible that, as His Highness King Lu said, even if he is ten times more powerful than Lu Wangwei, he will be defeated?"

"If even Marquis Yongchang were beaten like that, then wouldn't we be like that?"

Not only the ministers, but also Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't listen anymore.

Even though you are powerful, you still give us face.

But you can’t brag, right?

Good guy, you can defeat an enemy ten times your size and still get away unscathed. Do you think your people are heavenly soldiers and generals?
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but shake his head.

It's like this every time!

First he brings surprises to himself, and then he brags and offends a lot of people!

It even makes me a little unbearable!
Ugh.
Can't he imitate the stable prince?

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and looked at Zhu Tan, saying: "Old Shi! Marquis Yongchang cannot be insulted lightly! You just won one game, don't be arrogant!"

Zhu Tan smiled and said: "Go back to my father! I am telling the truth, not arrogant!"

the other side.

King Qin Zhu Xi saw that Zhu Tan was finally "besieged" by everyone, and even his father did not stand on his side.

Suddenly I felt energetic.

He coughed lightly and said: "Old Ten! Don't talk nonsense! Marquis Yongchang has fought in the south and north for so many years, and has made great achievements. Isn't what you said just now an insult? What's more, your King Lu's guard and the Marquis Yongchang's bodyguard have already lost to the enemy. So many! If it weren't for the wooden sword, your soldiers would be almost four hundred! How can this be considered unscathed?"

Jin Wang Zhu Fan had a smile on his face.

Lao Shi is really talented!

Arrogance is really arrogance!
However, this is the right thing to do.

If he is really talented, super capable, and open-minded, he can win people's hearts everywhere.

That proves that he is really ambitious!

Then I won’t be able to spare him!

The eldest brother’s position as the crown prince must not be shaken!
Zhu Di couldn't help but shake his head.

"Tenth brother, this is too crazy!"

Then, he smiled bitterly again.

"If my soldiers can do this well, I'm afraid I will be as crazy as my tenth brother!"

Only King Zhu Di of Zhou heard what Zhu Di said and couldn't help but said: "Fourth brother, is there a possibility that what Lao Shi said is true?
Have you seen him bragging so far?
He is an honest man! "

Zhu Di sneered and said: "No matter how he was before, but now, he must have a basis for his words, right? What Lao Shi means is that Lan Yu can't defeat his 5,000 King Lu guards with 50,000 people, and Lao Shi's soldiers Still unscathed!

Isn't that nonsense?
Even if Lan Yu brought 50,000 pigs, he would still have to kill a few Lu Wangwei, right? "

Zhu Ru smiled bitterly and said: "Anyway, I believe my tenth brother! Whatever he says must be something!"

Zhu Di shook his head.

"You are just trying to find a way out of trouble! No matter what happens, you won't use your brain!"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Tan and said: "Yongchang Hou is a minister of the country after all! You should be more prudent in what you say and do, and don't make fun of it! Okay! That's it for today! We'll just treat it as a moment of joy and bragging! If you continue to talk nonsense , we are going to punish you!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's words fell.

There was a burst of snickering all around.

"Your Majesty is wise! His Royal Highness Prince Lu is really bragging to no end!"

"Maybe he's so happy! After all, he trained to become the best in the world, so it's normal to be a little crazy!"

"Haha. It's just a pity that Marquis Yongchang, who has been famous all his life, has become a stepping stone for others!"

Lan Yu looked at Zhu Tan, snorted, and said: "His Royal Highness King Lu! Let's think about the Northern Expedition! It's no better than a martial arts field! It's a place where we really have to use swords and guns! Although I lost, if we talk about it, In actual combat, I’m still not convinced!”

Only Guo Ying stood there and smiled bitterly.

By doing this, aren't you forcing His Highness to show off again?

In fact, only Guo Ying knows what the real power of King Lu Wei is!
really.

When Zhu Tan saw Zhu Yuanzhang scolding him, he immediately became energetic.

"Father! I am not lying! I can show it to my father!"

Done.

Zhu Tan looked at Lan Yu again and said with a smile: "Yongchang Marquis, if you don't believe it, you can stand here and watch!"

Hearing this, Lan Yu was stunned and said, "His Royal Highness, King Lu, how do you want to show it?"

Zhu Tan asked with a smile: "How about Marquis Yongchang bringing 50,000 troops? In short, there are 200,000 troops gathered in Beiping City! It's easy to count 50,000 people! Look, I brought Lu Wang Weiping with me." Your army of fifty thousand!"

Hearing this, Lan Yu frowned immediately.

"His Royal Highness King Lu, your Majesty is here, please behave properly!"

Zhu Tan smiled and ignored Lan Yu.

He turned to Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "Why don't you ask your father to see the strength of Lu Wangwei on the battlefield now?"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said, "What other tricks do you have?"

Zhu Tan hasn't answered yet.

suddenly.

King Yan Zhu Di shouted, "That's right! Those muskets from Lao Shi! Those things are really sharp! That's right."

The words fell.

Xu Da, Feng Sheng, and Fu Youde also thought of the power of the musket they had witnessed at Zhu Tan's place the day before yesterday.

They also wrote a memorial and reported it to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang also remembered this incident after hearing Zhu Di's words.

He looked at Zhu Tan and couldn't help but said: "Old Shi, are you talking about the musket? We used this firearm a lot back then! However, it is not as powerful as you think! Even according to what Wei Guogong and the others played, this weapon It’s sharp, but it’s not as exaggerated as you said, right?”

Zhu Tan smiled and said: "Is it that powerful? Father and you will know at a glance!"

talking.

Zhu Tan asked Guo Ying, "Marquis Wu Ding, do you know if we have enough ammunition?"

Guo Ying smiled and said: "Enough, completely enough!"

Zhu Tan nodded and said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "Please give me a chance, father! Let me show the power of firearms to father and everyone!"

Zhu Yuanzhang naturally had no objection when he heard this.

In fact, he was also quite interested in the power of this firearm.

When the memorial from Xu Da and others was presented, he just felt that it was just a firearm and there was no need for him to personally intervene.

Now that I have the opportunity to see it with my own eyes, it’s even better!

Think of this.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "Since you are determined to show off, let's get started!"

Zhu Tan smiled and said: "My son, I obey the order!"

talking.

Zhu Tan said to Guo Ying: "Please arrange it with Marquis Wu Ding!" (End of this chapter)
