I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 628
Zhang Fu glared at Zhu Yong angrily but didn't say much.

Then he cupped his hands and said to Li Tian,
"Previously, I didn't know that His Majesty had prepared so many back-ups, and was puzzled by His Majesty's plan to train the new army, but now I fully understand.

Please give your Majesty an order, I will order people to prepare for it, and it will be ready in a few days! "

Hearing what he said, Zhu Yong also stepped forward and said,

"The minister is also willing to go, and will definitely not disappoint His Majesty."

Seeing that they were completely convinced now, Li Tian felt very relieved.

He smiled slightly, and said,

"Actually, this matter is not in a hurry. The equipment of the new army is not fully prepared at this time, and it may take a while."

"Another point is that I actually didn't intend to let the two of you lead the army, you just need to find a trustworthy subordinate who is capable enough.

This time it's just training, not a real battle. It seems a bit overkill for you two dukes to lead the troops in person. "

The two were taken aback when they heard the words. Although their hearts were itchy, they could only grit their teeth and accept Li Tian's decision.

The reason why Li Tian made such a decision was not that he was worried about handing over the new army to them, but that in addition to the new army, they also commanded hundreds of thousands of guard officers and soldiers of the northern frontier army. Can't do without the two of them.

It may take more than half a year for the new army to go to the training, and this period is an extremely important period of time. Two trustworthy princes who are in charge are gone at once. This is very important for Li Tian's deployment. extremely deadly.

As for the next manpower selection, Li Tian didn't ask too much. He knew that after today, the two of them would never have any doubts about the new army.

The people sent out must be their very trusted confidantes, and it is more than enough to lead the new army to complete the training and deterrence tasks.

Due to the limited space in the arsenal, they did not directly test the power of the artillery.

Then they visited one last invention, the wooden handle grenade.

This extremely sharp close-combat weapon once again brought a lot of shock to the two dukes.

They have also seen the hand grenade made by local methods before, but it is not only inconvenient to carry, but also difficult to guarantee its power. Compared with the well-made hand grenade made by the arsenal at this time, it is like heaven and earth.

Zhu Yong said bluntly,
"With this thing, not only can it make the enemy's guts fierce when defending, but it can also play an extremely important role when attacking the city, even without the help of artillery!"

Zhang Fu agreed with Zhu Yong's words from the bottom of his heart.

The original homemade grenade, to put it bluntly, is actually a jar filled with gunpowder, and then thrown into the opponent's position.

If the jar is too small, the power is not enough, if it is too big, it will affect the throwing distance, and the airtightness is not good enough, so the power after the explosion is actually very limited.

But this grenade with a wooden handle is different. The power of the explosion is almost five or six times that of the previous one, and it is very light in weight. An ordinary soldier can throw it more than 20 meters away, but it is stronger than before.

This thing can not only play a huge role in hand-to-hand combat, but also a siege weapon.

You know, the highest city walls in this era are no more than ten meters high, and a grenade can be thrown more than 20 meters by an ordinary person.

It can be imagined that after the soldiers of the new army attacked the enemy's city, they didn't even need to build a ladder. They could just throw a grenade up and clear a large area of ​​people on the city wall.

Wait until no one resists on the city wall, and then start climbing the city.

In this way, I don't know how much fearless damage can be reduced.

You know, in this era, when the death rate is the highest, it is the time of siege.

After visiting the arsenal, on the carriage back, the heads of the two princes were dizzy. They didn't speak much along the way, and they even looked at Li Tian cautiously.

Only at this moment can they really see Li Tian's foresight.

They knew very well in their hearts that this new army of only 20 already possessed such amazing combat effectiveness, and over time, this number would expand to [-] or even [-].

At that time, not to mention Da Ming, even in the whole world, no one would be Li Tian's opponent.

Li Tianhao once said that 20 people would be able to ensure that Daming is invincible all over the world. It seems that this is not empty talk. Except for gods and ghosts, no one can deal with such an army!
They were very fortunate that they had stood by Li Tianzhuo's side from the very beginning, otherwise they would have really turned against Li Tian that day, and they might not even understand how they died.

Li Tian also seemed to see the wonderful change in their hearts at this time from their expressions, but he didn't say much.

In his opinion, blindly giving benefits is not the only way to win over a general with a heavy hand.

It is also necessary to give them a little warning.

The shock brought to them today was unprecedented. With their publicity behind the scenes, he believed that the capital would be peaceful for a long time in the future.

Only when his base camp is as stable as Mount Tai can he spare more experience to deal with the changes that will appear.

No matter how crude the method is, as long as it works.

The secret joy in his heart is not enough for outsiders.

After returning to the palace, the two of them turned around and left without saying much. Li Tian didn't stop him. He knew that they needed a process of digestion. A process of digestion is required.

This time may be a day or a few months.

At this point of time, he was still waiting anxiously.

After the two princes were sent away, the affairs of the new army came to an end.

After stabilizing the army's personnel, Li Tian has to start preparations again to clean up those unstable factors in the Chinese official group in the capital.

It's just that Li Tian doesn't know who is behind the scenes. He still needs Yu Qian and people from the intelligence department to start taking action after further reports arrive.

But before he could wait for this information, a new piece of news from Huang Yan came first.

It turned out that the undercover agents secretly arranged by Dongchang and the intelligence department discovered a remarkable piece of information on the first day they broke into the gang of assassins.

After getting the news, Huang Yan came forward to report in a hurry, so that Li Tian hadn't grasped the point after listening to him for a long time.

Li Tian was so angry that he almost ran away, so he kicked Huang Yan in the face.

"You bastard, sort out the language for me before you speak. After so much nonsense, be careful that I cut your tongue!"
