I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 1019
"You are my treasures, I created you with my own hands, please don't let me down!"

The two Zhu Yong on the side seemed to see the worry in Li Tian's heart.

So they stepped forward and said to Li Tian,

"Your Majesty, are you worried about whether they can perform as invincible as expected?"

Li Tian didn't speak, just nodded slightly.

Zhu Yong laughed loudly and said,

"Your Majesty, don't worry, although I dare not say that I am [-]% sure.

But there are [-] to [-]% certainty.

With the same number of people, I believe that there is no one in this world who is their opponent.

If the opponent is an ordinary army, even if the number is four or five times their number, they can still have the ability to defeat the opponent.

If there is the cooperation of other arms, they will be able to win the battle even in the face of thousands of troops.

This is not what I am talking about, but what I have summed up with so many years of combat experience.

Your Majesty can't believe the fighting power of the new army, but you can't believe the judgment of the minister and the British Duke! "

Zhang Fu also nodded aside and said,

"Your Majesty, please relax.

The enemy of our Great Ming, at present, the strongest is only the Mongolian iron cavalry.

With long guns and cannons in hand, the new army was born to be the nemesis of cavalry.

Facing such an opponent, they can win the battle, who else in the world is their opponent! "

The two of them talked about each other, and they were almost blowing up the new army.

In fact, Li Tian knew better than them what their real combat effectiveness was.

After all, they don't have the memories in Li Tian's mind that are hundreds of years beyond this era.

What he really worried about was not the combat effectiveness of the new army, but that they had never experienced this new style of fighting.

If they are given enough time to train, then Li Tian will never have any worries.

But they have only received more than half a year of training until now.

For the conscripts of later generations who often spend two to three years, it may be that they have just completed the training of recruits, and they are still far away from becoming a real soldier.

These worries in his heart can't be shared with others.

Time waits for me, he has no more time for them to adjust, and the new army has already set off, even if he wants to repent, it is too late.

Another point is that, as the old saying goes, actual combat is the best way to train a soldier.

No matter how strict the training in the barracks is, it is not as effective as a battle.

Whether they can really succeed, whether they can really stir up the banner of the Ming Dynasty's new army in the future, depends on whether they can survive this time.

Worrying now is useless, everything has to be judged by the final result.

Thinking about it this way, Li Tian felt much more comfortable.

Looking at the tail of the new army team, it is about to disappear from sight.

Li Tian said lightly,
"Whether the new army is vulnerable or invincible depends on their specific performance, so let us wait and see!"

Not far away, Zheng He, who was riding a horse and walking at the forefront of the new army, was chewing back and forth with various feelings in his heart at this time, and the degree of responsibility in his heart was not much worse than that of Li Tian.

He recalled a private conversation between Li Tian and him before departure.

Li Tian explained to him the real purpose of sending troops to Nanjing this time and who the opponent they were going to face was.

Zheng He took a deep breath after hearing the news that Li Tian planned to ask them to escort Nanjing's relegation and guard against the remnants of Emperor Jianwen's party taking advantage of the chaos.

He originally thought that this time was just a long-distance training for the new army.

Unexpectedly, there are so many shocking events hidden behind this.

But Zheng He is a person who has experienced many storms after all, no matter how shocked he was by the news he heard, he still calmed down quickly.

And promise to lead the new army well, and there will be no troubles.

Li Tian is absolutely assured of Zheng He's ability.

But no matter how outstanding Zheng He's ability is, if he plunged into the quagmire of Nanjing City without knowing it, he might be in a hurry at critical times.

So Li Tian vaccinated him in advance to let him understand how important his mission is this time.

In the end, Li Tian released a big move that he had prepared a long time ago.

He said to Zheng He,

"Uncle Bao, as long as you can guarantee to suppress all possible rebellions in Nanjing this time, and let me finish all these things safely, the credit will be yours.

With such a great achievement, when I propose to make you a Marquis, no one in the court will dare to object. "

The previous few pieces of information have shocked Zheng He enough.

But the last one surprised Zheng He so much that he almost jumped up on the spot.

"A eunuch can be named a marquis, this is something that has never happened before!"

He just wanted to persuade Li Tian to give up this plan, but Li Tian said very solemnly,
"Uncle Bao, I know that you may not be able to accept my decision for a while.

But I have been thinking about it for a long time, and making you a Marquis is also something I have been thinking about for a long time.

Leaving aside other things for the time being, just because you have led the army to go overseas many times, Yang Wo Da Mingwei's great achievement is enough to make you a Marquis and Prime Minister.

The most common excuse that people in the court used to stop this matter was that it was left by the Taizu, and he could not be named a Marquis unless he had made military achievements.

This time, what I have to do is too important, and a foreseeable chaos may be unavoidable.

Now the person I trust the most is you, Uncle Bao.

Uncle Bao, you will promise me to help me, right! "

Li Tian's almost pleading tone really made it impossible for Zheng He to refuse.

In the end, Zheng He had no choice but to nod and agree.

"This old slave would like to thank His Majesty for his kindness in advance. This old slave will never disappoint His Majesty..."

Hearing that Zheng He finally accepted, Li Tian couldn't help showing a gratified smile.

What he said earlier was indeed correct, he had indeed planned to confer a title on Zheng He a long time ago.

However, due to various reasons, he was unable to persuade the courtiers, even Yang Shiqi and others, so the matter was delayed.

As for why Li Tian insisted on doing this, there is actually a reason.

In fact, whether Zheng He's title is granted or not will not have much impact on his historical status.

Even if Li Tian didn't use the title of title to encourage Zheng He this time, Zheng He would help him finish the battle wholeheartedly.

But Li Tian did it in the end, and his decision was still so firm.

The main reason is that he now needs a role model, a role model that allows everyone to see his true determination.
