"Damn it, Yandi's horses aren't that difficult to train! Don't move, we'll just sit here!"

Liu Xiu cursed angrily, and as soon as the words fell, the horse on his back immediately neighed, kicked up its hooves, and jumped a few times out of thin air.

Human, don't you let me move?

I have to jump twice!

This time, Liu Xiu was so angry that she was so angry that she didn't expect that one day she would be cured by a horse!

"Hahahahaha! I'm so happy! I'm so happy!"

An undisguised laughing sound came straight from the front, Liu Xiu took the time to look over,

I saw Zhu Yuanzhang and Xu Da laughing up and down,

Liu Xiu cursed in her heart,

"Who are these people!"

After seeing enough jokes, Lao Zhu patted his horse forward and asked with a smile,

"What's the matter?"

Liu Xiu blushed and said firmly, "This horse is too difficult to be fooled!"

Zhu Yuanzhang let out a long sigh, "So it's the horse's problem. I thought it was your problem."

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand to grab Liu Xiu's rein, as if trying to annoy Liu Xiu on purpose. As soon as Lao Zhu held the rein, the restless horse under Liu Xiu immediately calmed down.

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Liu Xiu, and then wanted to lead the horse forward. The horse really started to move forward with its pony legs.

"There's nothing wrong with this horse."

Old Zhu said while holding back a smile.

Liu Xiu completely broke her guard, "I don't know how to ride a horse! I admit that I don't know how to ride a horse anymore!"

"Oh, it's okay," Xu Da stepped forward and patted Liu Xiu's shoulder, "If you don't know how to learn, the stupid bird flies first, and there will be a day when you learn!"

Liu Xiu was speechless, she could only lower her head in frustration, and let Lao Zhu run forward while holding the reins.

The journey of the three of them was much slower, but they finally reached Jiangkou.

A sea breeze with a salty smell blows towards the face,

Zhu Yuanzhang looked and saw a large number of government soldiers digging the canal, and the whole process was orderly.

Lao Zhu traveled by water from Hangzhou Mansion to Anqing Mansion. As soon as he arrived, he went straight to Anqing Mansion. He really didn't pay attention to digging the canal here.

Xu Da said from the side, "This is the method that I told you so well."

Lao Zhu squinted his eyes and looked down from a high place. The more he looked, the more frightened he became, and he gradually saw the way.

"How do you think this kid's head is long? Hitting water with water? This is really good!"

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Liu Xiu subconsciously. Although he could understand it clearly, he would never be able to figure it out if he asked Old Zhu to think about it!

Liu Xiu smiled and said, "As expected of your Majesty, you can understand the method of beaming water in one go."

Old Zhu frowned, and said, "Do you think our Poyang Lake naval battle was for nothing? Then Chen Youliang was still thinking about digging a dam and flooding us. Didn't we see it through?"

"Tsk tsk, that guy Chen Youliang grew up in the water, and his understanding of water was second to none at that time. However, looking at it this way, he is still far behind you."

"Let's say this method of beaming water is simply a genius strategy. You first dig ditches on the river beach to divert the flood water, so that the flood water will change from a confluence to a diversion."

As Zhu Yuanzhang said, he drew in mid-air with his fingers, as if a huge flood was rushing in front of him.

"After the flood is diverted, it is considered to have relieved the force of the flood. The most genius is the place below! The water flows to the lower part, and the river mouth is high-lying. Just leads them to the side."

"Let several streams diverge and push into the sea from the side to change the direction of the flood and make it rush into the sea. Tsk tsk, what a genius! Everyone knows that water flows downhill, but you are the first to use it like this !"

After hearing Lao Zhu's explanation, Xu Da finally understood the meaning of the method of beaming water, and he was just parroting his tongue before.

But Liu Xiu was even more alarmed. Her water-containing method was a combination of Pan Jixun's genius ideas and modern water-control experience. It would be no problem to hang on to the traditional methods of water-control in the Ming Dynasty for decades.

Even Xia Yuanji, who is well versed in the way of water control, has only a half-knowledge.

But I didn't expect that Lao Zhu could see it so clearly just by looking at it!

Liu Xiu was speechless inwardly, and couldn't help getting a little deeper understanding of Lao Zhu.

Lao Zhu patted Liu Xiu on the shoulder, "Go, let's go down and have a look!"

Chapter 243 It's the background that came out

Lao Zhu took the lead and looked around along the embankment.

When he saw the rotten river embankment, his complexion was ashen, and there was a murderous look in his eyes.

"Hehe, even if Mu Yuandao didn't kill himself, we have to cut him down! The embankment is so festered, it must be a flood! I don't even know it!"

Liu Xiu was secretly startled, even Lao Zhu knew about Mu Yuandao?As expected of Jin Yiwei, there is nothing he can't find out if he wants to find out!

However, why does Lao Zhu not know much about Anqing Mansion?

Liu Xiu thought about it for a while, and figured out the joint. The Jinyiwei in the Hongwu Dynasty was far less powerful than the Jinyiwei in the later period.

Moreover, Lao Zhu set up Jinyiwei mainly to monitor the officials in Beijing, but the supervision of local officials is weaker.

So Lao Zhu didn't set his sights on the Anqing Mansion.

But now it's completely different, Lao Zhu has come here in person, no matter how far the Anqing Mansion's information is, it will be dug out and placed in front of Lao Zhu!

"We know what you're thinking." Old Zhu turned to look at Liu Xiu, his eyes were bottomless.

Liu Xiu's eyes flashed, and she bowed in salute.

Lao Zhu said casually, "Our daughter-in-law here doesn't want to understand."

Liu Xiu and Xu Da leaned over quickly, and they couldn't help being startled into a cold sweat.

"Go to your place and have a look."

Old Zhu walked towards Liu Xiu's main tent with his hands behind his back, glanced at Ma Sanbao, opened the curtain and walked in.

Ma Sanbao trembled all over and fell to his knees. He is a face saint!

Apart from Liu Xiu's father, I'm afraid it would be very difficult to find another person in the whole world who could not recognize His Majesty even when he was standing in front of him.

"This digging method definitely doesn't have enough people." Xia Yuanji frowned.

Song Zan sighed, "I thought I could walk around and ask officials from all over the surrounding area to call in labor labor to support, but all the letters were sent to the sea. Sigh..."

Xia Yuanji's eyes flashed, full of youthful spirit, and he said bitterly, "This group of dog officials! They are more diligent than anyone else in making money, and they shrink back when they are really needed! They should be cut off! "

"Hahaha! Yes! This group of dog officials can be kept if they don't kill them?"

Song Zan and Xia Yuanji looked over at the sound, and after seeing who was coming, Song Zan quickly knelt down on the ground,

Xia Yuanji was taken aback for a moment, feeling blessed in his heart, and bowed down tremblingly.

"See Your Majesty!"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand casually, "Don't waste time, tell us about the situation."

Liu Xiu and Xu Da also stepped in, Zhu Yuanzhang deliberately gave way to let Liu Xiu take the lead, and he chose a chair at random to sit down.

"Come on, tell me." Zhu Yuanzhang raised his jaw and looked at Xia Yuanji with unstoppable admiration in his eyes.

"Your Majesty..." Xia Yuanji gritted his teeth, simply ignored everything, got up and said, "Now there is a biggest problem, lack of people!"

"According to Brother Liu's method of drawing water, the canal must be dug to a certain depth, but the deeper the land is, the more difficult it is to dig. We must have a large number of people. And if there are more people, we can also build dams."

Liu Xiu nodded. He didn't advocate building dikes and dams at first, but only dug ditches because of insufficient manpower.

Zhu Yuanzhang pondered, "Indeed, if we can build a dam and narrow the mouth of the river, the effect of attacking the water with water will be better. But if the mouth of the river is narrowed, the flood that rushes in will be more violent, which requires digging deeper ditches." .”

"In this way, there is too much shortage of manpower."

"Hmm..." Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and said, "Tiande."

"The minister is here."

"Take our transfer order and let all the soldiers from all the military mansions in the Wu area move for us! We will raise three days of rations in our counties to support Anqing Mansion."

"Yes!"

"Song Zan."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhu Yuanzhang took off the sword, "Use our sword, take a fast boat, go around the surrounding prefectures and counties, and order them to bring over all the people who are burdened with labor, and the rations of the people along the way are provided by the local government. .”

A trace of killing intent flashed in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, and he said in a deep voice,

"If you still dare to pretend to be stupid for us, use the Tianzi sword, cut first and then play!"

Song Zan fell to his knees, took the Tianzi Sword with both hands, feeling cold to the touch,

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Your name is Xia Yuanji, right?"

"Student Xia Yuanji greets His Majesty!"

"You go with Mr. Song, but what you have to do is different. Every time you go to a prefecture or county, you go to the home of the local grain chief and ask him to transport the grain to Beijing directly. If they don't obey, It's still the same beheading and serving."

Xia Yuanji responded excitedly,

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

"Go."

Xu Da, Song Zan, and Xia Yuanji withdrew together.

Liu Xiu was dumbfounded by this thunderous method.

But in a few words, the manpower and food issues were resolved, and the most suitable candidates were selected!

Xu Da is the leader of the army, Song Zan is the leader of the army, and Xia Yuanji is the leader of the people.

Is this the son of a great tomorrow with MAX leadership? !

When only Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Xiu were left in the tent, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed,

"We see that the shit is rushing to the gate! If there is a heavy rain, it will definitely be flooded! Fortunately, your kid came here first. It seems that we reward you for the work of the station, and it is no problem!"
