Ping An Biography

At the banquet held by the North Palace of the Chu Palace to cleanse the navy and generals, Zhang Ning had the illusion of traveling again.The dresses of the female relatives are quite normal, with red and green skirts and skirts flowing in purple and red; but the new uniforms worn by the generals have completely deviated from the traditional style.

Before that, the clothes of the Suzaku army had metal buttons on the breasts, which were not the same as the robes, but now the navy's new uniform design completely imitated the modern uniform.A round top and wide cloth hat, a cyan jacket with a small cross-neck collar, six buttons underneath, a very stiff collar and a sailboat pattern embroidered on it; a spring belt tied around the waist; wide light gray trousers , It's just pants, no leg skirt, and leather boots.The flat and hard fabric, with gold and silver belt buttons and embroidery, looks no different from modern military uniforms.

It may be a fancy dress to wear on the body, but many people wear it together, and the herd mentality makes it easier for them to accept it, and Zhang Ning is also wearing a navy uniform.A group of generals may think that even the King of Xiang wears the uniform of the new army, which is strange; but Zhang Ning is really excited. He feels that the uniform worn by the officers is indeed more powerful than the robes.

In addition to the innovation in appearance, the next two months of training Zhang Ning began to go into battle in person, further instilling new thinking in words and deeds in the generals during the day and night.The pre-training is divided into two modes. In the morning, there will be "exercise" in the queue. In the past, when the instructors were studying, how did the instructors train, and Zhang Ning followed the example and how to train more than 20 generals; in the afternoon, there are lectures.The naval division plans to focus mainly on artillery battles, so the curriculum focuses on understanding Taoism.

After more than 20 people gathered in front of the watchtower, Zhang Ning asked, "Anything like a pear in the air, why does it fall down instead of flying into the sky?"

The generals immediately looked at each other, not knowing why.Many people saw Zhang Ning for the first time and didn’t know him well. When they first came to Wuchang, they encountered many strange things. First, they were ordered to wear this kind of clothes of unknown origin. Later, it was a bit strange for everyone to wear them together. I'm used to it, and now I'm asking this question again... Mother |'s pear was thrown in the air, how could it fly upwards without wings?Who would ask such a question!

But seeing Zhang Ning standing in front with a straight expression on his face, he didn't mean to make a fool of himself, everyone was silent and could only stand still and dare not speak.

"Because there is always a gravitational force on the ground, which is called universal gravitation." Zhang Ning walked up, stood in front of Zhao Hu and pulled him, Zhao Hu was dragged out of the queue without paying attention, "Zhao Hu is standing here , There is no force on the horizontal line, so it stands well. As soon as I pull him, he comes over. If something is in the air and there is nothing pulling it, it should float there instead of falling down immediately.”

Everyone looked bewildered, Zhao Hu asked: "My lord, what kind of hand is pulling that pear?"

"A force, gravitational force, the invisible hand formed in your imagination, has been pulling things into your arms." Zhang Ning said.

For a while, many people couldn't understand it. Zhang Ning just mentioned it, so he didn't talk about it.Then he began to take a lead ball and put it on a piece of smooth marble, first talking about stillness and uniform motion.

For some reason, the first lesson he taught was very strenuous. Many of the principles that he thought were simple, he could not make everyone understand after talking for a long time.

...Maybe it's because I don't have the talent to be a teacher?It may also be that the generals are all adults and have formed their own way of thinking, which is difficult to change for a while; moreover, most of these people have not read much, except for Zhu Guangyang and a few others, they only know how to read.

After the school disbanded, Zhang Ning returned to the cabinet study to reflect on himself.Xu Wenjun is still here, and he told Xu Wenjun what he said today again on a whim, but Wenjun understood it as soon as he heard it.He suddenly realized that it was probably because some generals were too stubborn in their thinking, and it was not his fault.

Seeing him happy, Xu Wenjun took the opportunity to say, "I saw Miss Luo today, and she has something to ask for."

Zhang Ning asked casually, "Where did you see it?"

"It's in the cabinet. She came into the palace somehow. Maybe she followed Master Yang, or maybe she found Chunmei. I didn't ask." Xu Wenjun said, "Miss Luo said that there is a way to save Xiao Qing's father, it depends on the prince. Do you really want to help her?"

After hearing this, Zhang Ning said, "She asked me for something, she didn't come by herself, but let you talk about it." He walked a few steps, thinking of Luo Yaoniang's promise, and he was unwilling to do even such a small matter?And she did promise Xiao Qing to save her father, but there was no other way at that time.

After thinking about it, he saw that it was still early, so he just took advantage of today to get things done.Immediately, it was reported that Xin Wei had not left the palace, so he invited Luo Yaoniang and Xiao Qing to the Chu Palace, and asked them what they could do.

After waiting for a while, Luo Yaoniang and the two came to the cabinet study.When they suddenly saw Zhang Ning's attire, they couldn't help being stunned. Luo Yaoniang joked, "My lord is going to sing an opera, which one?"

Only then did Zhang Ning realize that he had just returned from the military academy, hadn't changed his clothes, and didn't want to waste his time talking, so he said, "I would like to ask you what you want to sing. Listen to Wen Jun's words, is there a good way to save Doctor Xiao?"

Xiao Qing was not interested in Luo Yaoniang's bickering anymore, and hurriedly said: "The court assassins who were caught by the Ministry of Internal Affairs last time used me as bait. There was a woman among them. I suddenly remembered that I could exchange her with Lu Qian. People." Zhang Ning didn't interrupt, but listened carefully.Sure enough, she continued: "The female assassin who was captured was originally a Japanese pirate named Mochizuki Hongying; she also has an older sister named Mochizuki Qianxue, who should be by Lu Qianshi's side now. These two Japanese women are twin sisters. Adopted by Japanese pirates since she was a child, she is not only proficient in ambush and assassination, but also charming... Lu Qianshi likes Mochizuki and Qianxue very much, and often asks her to sleep with her. Now that Hongying is in the hands of the prince, Qianxue must really want to save her sister; at this time If through Qianxue's relationship, Lu Qianshi will definitely find a way to trade my father for this person."

Zhang Ning frowned and said, "Lu Qianshi is willing to go to prison to open up relationships for a Japanese pirate?"

Xiao Qing nodded vigorously: "Lu Qianshi loves Qianxue very much, as long as she can tell her the willingness to exchange, she will be eager to help us deal with it. I betrayed the people of Jinyiwei in Wuchang, if I don't find a way soon, my father ..."[

"Since this is the case, you should try it anyway." Zhang Ning said generously.He was indeed kind enough, not only did he not care about Xiao Qing, but now he wanted to replace him with another assassin.

He had never encountered a foreigner in the Ming Dynasty, and he heard that there were Japanese | among the assassins who were captured, so he also became interested for a while.And he is also very interested in Japan. I heard that the heavy metals there are very rich. The Ming Dynasty has not yet established a trade route with the Americas. The sea trade is mainly for the Japan|Japan trade route. Most of the imported gold and silver come from Japan. | this.

Immediately, he asked Xin Wei to go to Chunmei, the Minister of Internal Affairs, who had the authority to interrogate the assassin, so they happened to meet the pirate together.

A group of people went to the courtyard where the Ministry of Internal Affairs held prisoners, and the surroundings were heavily guarded. Zhang Ning and others sat in a hall and waited for the Ministry of Internal Affairs to bring them out.While waiting, Chunmei approached behind Zhang Ning and whispered, "Your lord, seeing that female Japanese pirate today, shouldn't have brought so many people, otherwise it would be fun."

Zhang Ning asked casually, "What's fun?"

Chunmei smiled and said in a low voice: "This kind of pirate is not protected by law in Ming Dynasty and Japan. Once caught, you can treat her as you like. You can humiliate and torture her as much as you want without any responsibility. They are all male bandits, they can only be killed, but it is rare to catch a female bandit."

Just as he was talking, he heard the rustling of iron chains dragging on the ground, and after a while, he saw a petite girl being led into the hall.The girl was small, and she seemed to be only ten years old, but maybe more than that. The ancient Japanese|people were short, so they looked small, otherwise they wouldn't be called Japanese.This girl should be the moon-watching red tassel mentioned earlier, with big eyes and small mouth, she is really good looking, her upper body is tied up with ropes, her breasts are more conspicuous because of the ties, she looks well developed.

"Untie." Zhang Ning ordered.The guard hurriedly said: "My lord, she is a pirate, so be careful."

Zhang Ning smiled but didn't answer, not to mention Japanese pirates, but later ninjas, he didn't believe that he could fly into the sky with shackles!He is not cruel by nature, and he is willing to be courteous before fighting. As long as Hongying cooperates, he doesn't need to use severe torture to force him.

Hongying stared at a pair of big eyes, and her attention was immediately attracted to Zhang Ning. He was the only man in the room, and he was called the prince. He was obviously a powerful person.

Zhang Ning said kindly: "Jinyiwei wants to assassinate me, but you are just a tool they use. I don't have to make trouble with you and use tools to vent my anger. Can you understand Chinese?"

Hongying said, "My lord, I can understand." She still spoke fluently, although her accent was a bit strange.

And Zhang Ning suddenly had a few words like flax falling in his mind, he couldn't help but smiled, then gradually restrained himself, and first asked casually, "Do you know what the current situation in Japan is?"

"What aspect do you want to know, sir?" Hongying answered cautiously.

Zhang Ning said: "Is it ruled by the shogun? Can the internal daimyo be restrained by the shogun, or do they fight each other?"

He really doesn't know much about the ancient history of Japan, and he doesn't know when the Japanese Warring States Period started. He only remembers the names of people like Tokugawa Ieyasu Toyotomi Hideyoshi.

Hongying said: "The current general who conquers barbarians is Ashikaga Yoshinaka, the sixth shogun of the shogunate... The villain doesn't understand state affairs, he only knows that the sixth shogun has not been in power for long. Japan | Japan used to be divided into Southern and Northern Dynasties, but decades ago Unified, daimyo? It should be obeyed by the shogunate; it’s just that the villain also secretly heard some things on the boat, and the Kamakura government in the Kanto region and the Kyushu Ouchi clan are not very obedient.”

Zhang Ning nodded, and couldn't hear any comprehensive description from a woman's mouth. He could only guess in a few words.Of course, he just ran into an opportunity to learn casually, and for the time being, he didn't intend to spy on Japan. Now Zhang Ning's primary goal is to resolve the civil war and seize the political power of Ming Dynasty.
