Chapter 253
Zhu Yuanzhang said worriedly: "But if you are magnanimous, it doesn't mean he can think about it..."

Zhu Yunxi glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang, wondering if he was probing on purpose, or if he was really moved.

"Grandfather, don't worry. Elder brother has also read the books of sages. People who understand things will not be stubborn..."

After a pause, Zhu Yunxi said again: "Even if my brother really can't think about it, as long as there are no loopholes, he can't do anything. If he really goes against the law, he will be punished by the Ming law, so Grandpa Huang doesn't have to think too much."

What Zhu Yunxi said did not mean that he would be tolerant unconditionally, after all, it was not in line with his character, and Zhu Yuanzhang would not believe it.

So Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said after listening, "Okay, let's do as you want."

Zhu Yunxi looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, and said with some emotion in his heart: "Grandfather, you shouldn't have deposed Lu Shi to death. This will not affect you well. After all, you were the one who made the decision to restore her..."

You must know that you are not joking.

It was Zhu Yuanzhang's gift to make Lu the crown princess.

It is indeed inappropriate to abolish her now.

If Zhu Yuanzhang said indifferently: "Do we still care about this? Huh... She was only able to be a concubine when she was virtuous."

"Now that she has become a poisonous scorpion, why can't she be abolished! A king can't be afraid of losing his reputation! Otherwise, he will be led by the nose!"

"Yes! Thank you, Grandpa Huang, for your teaching."

In fact, it is right to think about it, Zhu Yuanzhang has slapped himself in the face too many times!

He didn't even recognize the issued iron scroll, showing his infidelity to the fullest!

No one can compare to playing hooligans!
In history, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered people to make 97 pairs of iron coupons, each of which was divided into left and right, the left one was awarded to the meritorious officials, and the right one was hidden in the inner government.

In the iron coupons, the resumes of the heroes are recorded to record their merits, and the regulations on exemption from crime and salary reduction are written to prevent their mistakes.

A certain number of times to avoid death is stipulated in the iron scroll
Among them, Xu Da was the one who "avoided death" the most times. Xu Da himself was exempted from death three times, and his son was exempted from death twice.

And the promise Li Shanchang got was: I will avoid dying twice, and my son will avoid dying once.

However, everyone knows the historical fact that many people who got the iron coupons were not really able to "save themselves from death" in the end.

Avoiding death does not include rebellion, so use the case of treason to put you in it!
Therefore, to be a wise emperor, the most basic conduct is: cheating!

……

"Your Highness is mighty, Your Highness is mighty!"

"Your Highness is mighty, Your Highness is mighty!"

On the school grounds, Zhu Yunxi was wearing a suit of armor, standing majestically on the high platform.

Beside him are Qianhu Shengyong and Geng Rui, the son of Changxing Marquis Geng Bingwen.

At this time, Sheng Yong took two steps forward and said, "Soldiers and soldiers! It has been a while since His Majesty the Emperor Taisun's guard battalion has been established.

Your Highness attaches great importance to us, and you all know it well!Today is the time for me to show off my training results in order to repay Your Highness' great favor!Now the walkthrough begins! "

With Sheng Yong's order, the soldiers and horses of the guard battalion immediately began to practice.

First of all, various types of soldiers and horses are displayed separately, and then the military formation is coordinated with the drill.

"Da Ming Hui Dian Volume 130 IV" said: "In 16 years, order the world's guards, and those who are good at shooting will be selected from ten. They will go to Beijing for a test in shifts during the winter and lunar agricultural gaps. Those who fail will be fined to command a thousand. Hundreds of households. Those who are in the middle will be rewarded with five ingots. Those who are in the middle will be rewarded with six ingots. Those who are not in the middle will be rewarded with three ingots. Those who are not in the middle will also be given a road fee. The soldiers on each side will compete with the guards."

Cavalrymen must be good at riding horses, archery, and using guns and knives.

Infantry must be good at using bows and firecrackers.

The standard for training archers in the Ming Dynasty was to hit six of every twelve arrows to reach the standard.

And the military officer's standard is to shoot at least 160 steps away, and to shoot at a distance of [-] steps.

The standard for soldiers is to shoot at least 120 steps away, and it is also required to shoot at a distance of fifty steps.

Moreover, during the Ming Dynasty, the standard for crossbow shooting training was that for every twelve bolts shot, five of them could hit the standard.

Among them, the kicking crossbow can shoot eighty steps away.The crossbow can shoot up to 150 paces.

The kicking crossbow can be shot at a distance of forty steps, and the crossbow of a chariot can be shot at a distance of sixty steps.

As a spearman, you must be well-founded and proficient in using a gun.

In addition, it was stipulated that there would be 5000 people in each guard in the outer capital, and one-fifth of them should also be tested.

The rest of the guards will also be tested in turn.

If a large number of soldiers are unqualified, their superior military officers will be punished, mainly by suspension of pay or demotion or dismissal.

Even if some soldiers failed the test, the Ming court would give [-] Wen to the failed soldiers, which was regarded as encouragement and travel expenses.

Qualified soldiers and their superior military officers will be rewarded.

Chariots, infantry, crossbowmen, and cavalry are all displayed one by one.

The soldiers are very serious and dare not be negligent, because maybe this drill will fall into the eyes of the nobles, and they will be able to get promoted and make a fortune from then on!

What's more, His Highness the Emperor Taisun was watching on the stage. These days, Zhu Yunxi's attention to them moved them very much.

So everyone wants to show their best side, so as not to disappoint His Highness.

Zhu Yunxi had no doubts about his ability to guard the soldiers of the battalion.

No one dares to stuff in a bag of wine and rice. After all, it only takes one practice test to see it, so one's ability must not be faked.

And after such a long period of training, even those with slightly poor grades have already been eliminated, and he will not be allowed to stay here.

Therefore, in terms of individual combat capabilities, Zhu Yunxie's guard battalion should not be underestimated, not to mention crushing everything.

After the individual display of individual soldiers, the team began to practice coordinated operations.

The chariot soldiers quickly formed the outer fortifications with the chariots they were driving, and then the spearmen used their long guns to stand on the chariots to prevent the enemy's horses from crossing over, and were ready to stab at any time.

The crossbowmen stood on the inner floor, and lastly the musketeers of the infantry, with their ammunition ready and ready to fire.

Under the leadership of Sheng Yong, the entire army immediately moved into action, projectiles were shot out one after another, and arrows from the crossbowmen shot out one after another.

There is a saying that it is difficult to defeat four hands with two fists. In large-scale battles, it is often not about individual combat capabilities, but teamwork.

No matter how outstanding an individual's ability is, it has no effect in front of a large-scale and well-organized army.

Therefore, when the two armies are fighting, they will generally try to disrupt the opponent's army formation, causing the opponent to riot or be defeated.

As long as the opponent's army is dispersed, all the soldiers are like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

That's why there is a saying in history that the army was defeated like a mountain.

Zhu Yunxi watched the drill of the soldiers and nodded frequently.

The first thing the military formation needs to do is to be stable and orderly. It is necessary to respond quickly after receiving orders and execute them accurately without the slightest panic.

Regarding this point, there are many training methods in the world, and the methods of later generations are not necessarily better than the current ones. It is the most basic thing for soldiers to obey orders and prohibitions.

After the soldiers had rehearsed, Zhu Yunxi gave them some words of encouragement, in short, all kinds of high-sounding and exciting words.

So after saying a few words, the soldiers were so moved, their blood boiled, and they shouted "Your Highness is mighty" again and again.

Amidst the enthusiastic shouts of the crowd, the drill also came to an end.

In the barracks lobby, Zhu Yunxi was sitting on the main seat, and a "military meeting" was being held, and the generals took their seats one by one.

Zhu Yunxi praised and said: "I have seen the results of your training are very good. You can enforce orders and prohibit them, and the cooperation between the military and the government is also very strict. In a short period of time, you have become a strong army. You have worked hard."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your compliment!" The generals replied in unison.

Zhu Yunxi looked at the crowd and said: "Everyone, although these thousand horses are a guard battalion, your duty is not only to guard my safety, but also to pay attention to cultivating talents. I have an idea. Let's see if it can be realized." .”

Geng Rui saluted and said, "Your Highness, please give me instructions."

Zhu Yunxie said: "Soldiers are not many but fine, generals are not brave but resourceful. In the guard battalion, I want every soldier to be able to command the battle on the battlefield, so in spare time,
Soldiers can form teams of [-] or [-], commanded by the soldiers in turn, and even larger army formations can be commanded by them, so as to discover hidden generals. "

"In addition, the teams are allowed to compete with each other. As long as they don't hurt their lives, they can use any method to compete."

In fact, what Zhu Yunxi wanted was to regard his guard battalion as similar to a military academy, and continuously cultivate talents.

If one day he masters the power of soldiers and horses, the talents produced will be distributed to various households and military camps.

At that time, not only the quality of soldiers and horses will be improved, but also the combat capability will be improved to a higher level.

More importantly, this army will be firmly in your hands, and no one can shake it!
Sheng Yong nodded frequently and said: "What Your Highness said is that there are so many changes on the battlefield, so there may not be any accidents. If there are many soldiers who can command soldiers and horses to fight, then they can be foolproof."

Geng Rui also said: "This subordinate thinks it is feasible. There are already people in command among the teams. Now we only need to emphasize and strengthen training so that more soldiers can have the opportunity to practice. It can not only select talents as His Highness said, but also improve their skills. The combat power of soldiers and horses is indeed feasible."

After the two finished speaking, the other generals also nodded in agreement. After all, this is not a difficult task, but it just takes a little more time.

Zhu Yunxie said: "Since that's the case, then how to practice your own arrangements, and besides..."

After looking at the crowd, he continued, "I have asked the Weapons Bureau to develop a batch of the latest firecrackers, which have already been produced, and a batch will be delivered later, and there will also be a dedicated person to explain how to use it... "

Everyone was slightly surprised when they heard this. You must know that these people are experts in the use of firecrackers, so do they still need someone to teach them?
