Chapter 332 Old Zhu Returns to Fengyang

The Maritime Affairs Bureau needs to train them in the days before going to sea, systematically learn about marine disaster response, and even Zhu Biao is preparing for the basics of ocean currents and disasters.

Astronomical knowledge, navigation knowledge, marine survival knowledge, self-rescue, boats, development of tools needed for navigation, basic necessities of life suitable for long-term ocean voyages all need to be planned in advance.

……

On an island far away from Daming, Xu Da and Chang Mao's strategy has made great progress.After three days of continuous fighting, the Japanese pirates were also forced to become dogs jumping over the wall, and began to fight back with all their brains.

The pirates had already attacked Xu Da's defense. Xu Da, who was sitting in the command camp, commanded the next step with a clear mind.

Chang Mao was worried that the Japanese pirates' attacks would become more and more fierce. If the casualties were too great, the soldiers would collapse and run away, standing in the camp and circling anxiously.

"Chang family boy, you can't win the battle like this. Those Japanese pirates just attacked a little bit more violently, so you messed up? Don't be like your father. You come back bravely, but you must know what you want."

"I..." Chang Mao wanted to defend himself, but finally stopped talking and went out to watch the battle.

After the two armies fought several times, the trenches dug by Xu Da had been filled with the corpses of Japanese pirates, and the stretchers of the Ming army were transporting wounded soldiers back and forth.

Chang Mao looked at the stretcher.He had to admit that His Royal Highness' foresight, the gauze disinfection, the stretcher for the wounded, and the bean sprouts they brought that can be used after soaking in water, all came in handy.

As the stretchers came and went, Chang Mao also felt the fatigue of the Ming army. These navy troops were already at the end of their strength, but Xu Da seemed to have other plans, and he was not in a hurry to sit in the big tent.

There was no guarding army on the left side of the camp. Seeing Japanese pirates running towards the left side, Chang Mao was so anxious that he picked up his knife and rushed down.

His hand that drew the saber was firmly pressed down by Xu Da, and the saber returned to its sheath. Chang Mao turned his head and pointed to the open space on the left: "There are no defenders here. Once they attack, our food, grass, soldiers and horses will suffer severely." attack."

The left side is an important place for food, grass and soldiers, Xu Da said with a smile: "I just want them to attack the left side, the more people the better."

If it weren't for Xu Da being an elder.Chang Mao might call a lunatic, but he didn't, watching the Japanese pirates quickly enter the open space, getting closer and closer.

At this moment Xu Da waved his hand: "Pull the string."

boom!boom!boom!
Tu Mozi was blown up several feet.

The limbs of the Japanese pirates were blown up by the buried land mines, and fell heavily to the ground with the weightless cotton puppet.

A large area of ​​black Japanese pirates was blown flat in an instant. Xu Da stroked his beard and looked at Chang Mao, his eyes seemed to say: Boy, you are still too young, learn it hard.

In the Qianqing Palace, Old Zhuzheng and Empress Ma were hugging their grandson, teasing: "When we are not in the capital, the court will hand it over to you. We will take this little guy with us too."

Empress Ma came over and said kindly: "After you go back, order someone to clean up for the princess, remember it."

Zhu Biao stood not far away, listening to the words of Emperor Zhu and his wife, nodded.This year is the first year of adding the emperor's grandson, and Lao Zhu will personally take the child back to Fengyang to worship the ancestors.

Zhu Biao was notified of this sudden decision, and Chang Meirong and the wet nurse would go with her.

"Biao'er, what are you still doing in a daze? These days, the memorials in the imperial study are all yours. We will take away some ministers. You can directly decide what to do." Old Zhu told his grandson with his hands behind his back several times. up.

Standing there, Zhu Biao was treated as an invisible person by the Emperor Zhu and his wife: "Your servant will retire."

"Why haven't you left yet?" Old Zhu urged Zhu Biao.

Back in Yongning Palace, Zhu Biao was sitting there casually flipping through books, while Xu Miaowei concentrated on embroidering her own things, and the two were doing their own things.

"Drink some tea." Zhu Biao put down the book and looked at her who was busy.

"Concubines can't drink cold." Xu Miaowei turned her head, embroidering her own things arrogantly.

After another half day of silence, Zhu Biao remembered going to Fengyang. Xu Miaowei said that she was not feeling well these days, so she didn't go.

"In the next few days, Gu will live in the imperial study, and it will be more convenient to deal with the memorial. You drink alone and have an early rest. Tonight or tomorrow night, Gu will have time to accompany you. You choose a day."

Zhu Biao asked Xu Miaowei, and he still loved her more.

"The concubine wants to sleep with His Highness every day." Xu Miaowei said with her lips pouted.

"Only one day, I'm very busy at other times." Zhu Biao refused.

Xu Miaowei thought for a while and said, "Then let's talk to you about the separation of powers at the Beiping Army Academy."

"En." Zhu Biao leaned against the bed, glanced at Xu Miaowei, and said directly: "The Maritime Affairs Bureau lacks a chief official, and I want Xu Huizu to take up this important position, and promote him more in the future."

Zhu Biao originally thought that Xu Miaowei would be happy when he said that he wanted to focus on Xu Huizu.Who knew that she shook her head seriously: "I think he still needs to be tempered, and his actions are a bit frivolous. It's better to choose someone else, such as Sanbao."

"Gu treat him as his own family, and let him take charge of this matter, Gu can rest assured." Zhu Biao looked at her.

"Your Highness, my concubine does not agree with this matter. It is better to let him spend more time in the National Academy of Scholars, so that he can be worthy of the important task."

Zhu Biao walked to her side and said, "Tell me why you recommended Sanbao to manage the Maritime Bureau."

"Yes, Your Highness." Xu Miaowei put down the needle and thread in her hand, saluted Zhu Biao respectfully, and then said: "Your Highness, I thought that Sanbao had participated in the shipbuilding of the shipyard, and he was always in charge of the sailors. The familiarity with Xu Huizu is far better than that of Xu Huizu. Therefore, the concubine thinks that only the Three Treasures are competent."

Zhu Biao helped her up, and every time she asked her about government affairs, she would answer respectfully and sternly, which made him want to laugh.

"Sambo is Gu's entourage, and letting him manage the Maritime Affairs Bureau will exhaust him," Zhu Biao said.

"Then let Tang Ding go." Xu Miaowei thought for a while and said, "Your Highness, the courtiers and concubines should not interfere in this matter. Your Highness should decide everything."

Zhu Biao sat back on the couch again, closed his eyes and meditated: "I have a headache, it's not good to use my brain too much."

"Yes, Your Highness." Xu Miaowei replied softly, reached out and lifted Zhu Biao's head on her legs, and gently helped him press his forehead: "When the emperor leaves the palace in the future, I will go with His Highness to see him off."

On the third day, Zhu Biao took Xu Miaowei to see off the old couple, Chang Meirong and the child, Zhu Xi and the others.

Li Shanchang, Hu Weiyong, Chang Yuchun and Lan Yu all followed Lao Zhu to Fengyang.

On the palace road, Sanbao talked about the construction of Daming post offices in various places in the north, and the arrangements for officials from various places.

Sanbao copied a complete copy of the list of Nanzhili post office officials and gave it to Zhu Biao, and then the two went to the imperial study.

Zhu Biao asked Sanbao to tidy up those memorabilia that piled up into a mountain: "These days when the emperor is away, you can just stay alone in the imperial study and change the memorabilia."

Sanbao nodded: "Your maidservant has written down, wherever the master is, this servant girl will be there."
