Daming: My grandfather is Emperor Hongwu!

Chapter 203 Ming Dynasty's Military Secrets.

It turned out that the military power of the entire Ming Dynasty was hidden in that secret compartment that had always been kept secret!
After the old man closed it, he patted it firmly, and smiled at Zhu Xiongying, "We are the only ones in the world who know about this matter, even your father only knows a little bit of it!"

Although he said so, Zhu Xiongying clearly saw something else in the old man's eyes.

The old man said so, but the subtext in his heart was, grandson wants to know?Want to know? Ask us?
So, Zhu Xiongying leaned forward, using the old man's favorite method, tugging at his sleeves and dangling, "Grandpa, let my grandson take a look, just take a look, my grandson will absolutely keep it secret, don't tell anyone!"

The old man was obviously very pleased with his grandson's intimacy with him, and said with a smile, "Of course you can't tell people that if you are an emperor, if you don't have military power in your hands, you'd be a fart!" Then he tapped Zhu Xiongying on the head and continued , "You want to know?"

"En!" Zhu Xiongying nodded vigorously.

The old man glanced to the side, and Pu Guochang, who was hiding in the corner, appeared out of nowhere, opened his hands silently, and yelled at the outside.The palace servants and eunuchs standing at the gate also retreated silently.

The secret compartment was pulled open by the old man, and he took out a book that seemed to be a bit old, which seemed to be read frequently on weekdays.

"Do you know how many soldiers and horses there are in all parts of the world?" the old man whispered.

Zhu Xiongying shook his head, "How would my grandson know where to go?"

"130 battle-ready soldiers!" The old man opened the brochure, "Grandson, we Gaosun you, the guards in various places, the border gates, we as the emperor sometimes don't care about it, we must choose someone we trust to command! "

"Look, the commanders and soldiers from all over the country are all following our heroes who have conquered the world! Every year, we will send Xu Datang and them to various places to train soldiers!"

Zhu Xiongying suddenly realized that almost every year there are noble generals from the court who go to various places to join forces.Such as Hebei, Henan, Shandong, Shanshan and other places.And all the people who came out were the people the old man trusted the most.

In the early years, it was mostly Xu Da Tanghe, and in recent years, it was Cao Guogong Li Wenzhong, the son-in-law captain Mei Yin, the adopted son of the old man, General Pingan, and others.In addition to the north, the same is true for Zhili, Jiangxi, Huguang and other places in the south, and the southwestern region is handed over to Muying.

"Training soldiers has two advantages. First, if soldiers don't practice, they can't fight. What do we do with soldiers who can't fight? Second, to train soldiers can let soldiers know about the court and our emperor. We can also know about the local army. Among them, who can fight, who can use, who is loyal, who is lazy!"

As he said that, the old man suddenly opened the book, and there were many names of people drawn with red lines on it.

"Look, grandson, this is the general that we have promoted from below over the years!"

Zhu Xiongying looked at those names, some were familiar, some were unfamiliar.

The familiar faces are Sheng Yong, Qu Neng, and Bu Wan!

These three seem to be the shining figures in history when they fought against Zhu Di.

"These people are still young, and they have experienced at the border for a few years. When we are old, you and your father will need them!" The old man continued to laugh, "We are old, and those veteran killers who founded the country are also old." .And the older they get, the more idiots they become, and they won't be able to count on them in the future. It's these young people who rely on them!"

As he said that, the old man took out another booklet, "This is the roster of our capital's garrison. Do you know how many garrisons our capital has?"

Zhu Xiongying shook his head again, "My grandson already knows that Lan Yu is in charge of the capital camp, and my grandson's three uncles are also leading troops in the capital camp. And the uncle is also in charge of the imperial guards!"

"Haha! Lan Yu and your uncles are able to hold the military power because of your father's face!" The old man continued to laugh, "It stands to reason that they are foreign relatives, and it is one thing to trust them, but the real use is another. One thing!"

"Don't look at them with soldiers, but they don't have our lives, they can't move a single soldier!"

These words were naturally expected by Zhu Xiongying. The old man was killed in a sea of ​​corpses and blood all his life. He seemed to have given power to his subordinates, but in fact he could not surpass him in anything, especially the military.

"The capital has a total of 19 garrisons, and this is the most capable elite in the entire Ming Dynasty!" The old man continued in a low voice, "Ping An, Li Jian, the captain-in-law, is the governor of the Chinese army's governor's mansion and commands the nine thousand troops in the Beijing camp." Riding, [-] Qingqi.!"

"You haven't seen these 9000 people yet. Grandpa will take you to see them some other day. They are all fully equipped, and they are unstoppable!"

"Our adopted son, He Fu'er, is in charge of [-] firearms soldiers, and all the firearms in the Ming Dynasty's capital camp are in his hands. Cannons, firecrackers, hehe!"

"All the generals in the Beijing camp were selected and promoted by us alone! Or they are veteran generals in the army. No matter who leads the army in the Beijing camp, there is one thing, the promotion of officers must be decided by ourselves !"

As he said that, the old man suddenly paused, and rubbed his forehead with his hands, "Someday, let's call them all into the palace and let you meet them!"

Immediately, the old man took out another thick notebook from the imperial case.

"This is the roster of Jinyiwei!" The old man continued with a smile, "There are 3000 Jinyiwei soldiers all over the world. They are our eyes and ears, helping us see the world of the Ming Dynasty!" As he spoke, his tone became serious , "You, don't learn from your father in the future, and don't let those plague-stricken scholars lead you down!"

"Officials all over the world are heartless, they're all low-skinned, they don't care about beatings. There's no way to expect them to be quiet, so people have to watch them. This Jinyiwei must never be cut!"

"With these Jin Yiwei around, those officials who want to break the law and do bad things secretly have to think carefully. Remember, don't trust people. When you grow up in the future, no matter what the people below say, you have to believe three points, doubt seven points, Otherwise, let them lead the way!"

Zhu Xiongying said solemnly, "Grandson remembers it!"

The old man nodded in satisfaction, "You are still young, study hard first, and learn government affairs from us and your father. After two years, people around you will also be able to work as errands. Let them go wherever you want." where!"

Zhu Xiongying suddenly laughed, "Grandpa, in all dynasties, which emperor did not guard against the prince like a thief? You, not only trust your father unconditionally, but also dote on your grandson so much. When your grandson is old, let him form his own team?"

That's what the old man meant, Zhu Xiongying is young now.When he gets older, he can be like Zhu Biao.It's justifiable, you can promote whoever you want to promote.

"Haha!" The old man laughed loudly, "This world will belong to you sooner or later, why should we guard against you? We were born and died in this life, for whom? To guard against anyone, we can't guard against our children and grandchildren!"
