Daming: Mixed in Dangzhi County, Beiping

"Ok!"

Zhu Di nodded slightly, "Now, you are the only two Dukes of Wuxun left in the Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, most of the generals in the army are convinced of your ability to lead the army.

In this way, you two will be responsible for searching for some experienced veterans, and then select some outstanding soldiers from each army. Hundreds or thousands of households can also come to the military academy to study! "

"The minister obeys the order!"

Xu Huizu and Li Jinglong responded quickly.

Zhu Di added: "As for those who teach reading, literacy and arithmetic, we will transfer some officials from Yan State, or recruit some scholars from Peking Academy."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhu Di looked at Guo An again, "Guo Qing, how many generals do you think this military academy can recruit?"

Guo An said directly: "Your Majesty, this military academy has twenty lecture halls, each of which can accommodate fifty generals.

So, a thousand people is okay.

If one hundred people share a lecture hall, two thousand people can be recruited! "

Zhu Di said: "Two thousand people... If all of them are drawn to the military academy, the military attachés from each guard station will complain to us, so let's draw a thousand people first!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Xu Huizu and Li Jinglong quickly responded again.

Zhu Di said again: "Okay, you will go in and check out this military academy. When you go back, write down the rules and regulations on how to teach the generals and soldiers in the academy and report it to us!"

At this time, Xu Huizu and Li Jinglong couldn't help but look bitter.

However, he could only slowly raise his hands and salute.

"The minister obeys the order!"

"Ok!"

Zhu Di nodded slowly and walked in on his own.

Behind him, Guo An quickly followed, introducing them as he walked.

As for Zhu Gaochi, Xu Huizu, and Li Jinglong, they listened with curious faces.

The more I listen, the more satisfied I become.

Lecture hall building, dormitory building, military attache's dormitory, canteen, latrine, library, ordnance building, sand table, school field, garden...

Everything shows that this military academy is not inferior to the Imperial College in the capital!
  It may even be more formal and complete than the Imperial College!

This Marquis of Dinghai is quite talented in construction!
  After going around, Xu Huizu and Li Jinglong had such an idea in their minds.

After going back,

Xu Huizu and Li Jinglong took action quickly.

Nowadays, the old princes of the Ming Dynasty have been cut off and cut off, and the only remaining princes left are Xu Huizu, the Duke of Wei, and Li Jinglong, the Duke of Cao.

Both of them are still famous generals in the world, and they were not beaten by Zhu Di.

Therefore, one can imagine the prestige of the two men in the Ming Dynasty army.

Moreover, the relationship between the two and Zhu Di is also very close, so it is most appropriate to leave the affairs of the military academy to them.

After returning, Guo An no longer cared about the military academy, but focused all his attention on the workshops in Jiangjun Mountain.

No matter whether the quarrel in the court was turned upside down because of the military academy or the civil servants Wu Xun got into a fight, it had nothing to do with Guo An.

This is the advantage of not having a specific official position.

In addition to working in the workshop, Guo An can also inspect the farm experimental fields.

Or, go and talk with Zhu Gaochi about the future business changes of Di Bao and the post office!
  Anyway, these things are what Guo An is most comfortable with, and they don't involve Zhu Di's taboos.

Half a month passed.

The civil and military battle in the court has also come to an end.

In fact, with the announcement of the military academy, those civilian officials also knew that the establishment of the military academy was imperative.

In addition, the money to build the military academy has not yet used a penny from the court.

Your Majesty intends to build a military academy, and no one can resist it.

They could tell by looking at the excited red faces of the generals.

But they were angry.

His Majesty actually hid it from them for such a long time. They were not informed by His Majesty until the construction of the military academy was completed. His Majesty was so out of their control that all the civil servants felt fearful.

Zhu Di had long been dissatisfied with the civil servants, so he took this opportunity to teach the civil servants a lesson.

Although there was no quarrel, these military attachés would cheat, and in the end they would make all the civil servants very angry.

If you civil servants are capable, don't just talk words and go to conquer the Tatars and Oasis!
  Furthermore, if you have the ability, just like Dinghaihou, you can research and develop magical artifacts such as dibao, rice seeds, and cement for the Ming Dynasty!
  All the civil servants were speechless.

In the end, the topic had already gone astray.

Until, an urgent report from the border army entered the palace!

"Locusts are slowly appearing in the land of Tatar... In less than a month, there will be a plague of locusts raging in the land of Tatar?"

"Is there another locust plague?"

"Your Majesty, this move is harmful to Tianhe!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, locusts are a natural disaster and are too vicious.

Our Ming Dynasty is a country of etiquette. Although the Tatars are barbarians, they have been taught a lesson, and some of them have also sent letters begging for surrender.

I, the Ming Dynasty, should accept their begging for surrender, and follow the example of Emperor Taigaozu, who settled the Tatars in the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty and slowly civilized them! "

Hearing this, Li Jinglong's face was full of ridicule, "What Han Yushi said is absolutely true. Your Majesty, our Ming Dynasty should indeed accept the surrender of these Tatars.

However, begging for surrender is not something that generals like us are good at.

I beg your majesty to allow Yushi Han to bring a few civil servants to the Tatar tribe, accept the Tatars' begging for surrender, explain the etiquette of our Ming Dynasty to those Tatars, and take those Tatars to move to the hinterland of our Ming Dynasty. ! "

Hearing this, Han Yushi's face immediately changed as he spoke.

On the side, all the generals were also full of excitement.

"Your Majesty, what Duke Cao Guo said is absolutely true. Our generals have defeated the Tatars and begged for their surrender. The only way to accept the surrender and be educated is by Han Yushi, a great scholar like him!"

"Your Majesty, all the civil servants of our Ming Dynasty have the spirit of a scholar, but they have no place to use them. Such great opportunities should be taken by the princes!"

"His Majesty……"

Han Yushi quickly explained: "It is my honor to serve your Majesty and the Ming Dynasty. However, I am already old and weak.

The land of Tatar is thousands of miles away from the Ming Dynasty. I am worried that traveling such a long distance will inevitably cause illness and miss your majesty's important business! "

"Yu Shi Han is joking!"

Xu Huizu smiled coldly, "Your Majesty, I think Han Yushi is suspected of bullying the emperor.

When Han Yushi was arguing with Wei Chen and others just now, Han Yushi had a loud voice, full of energy and blood, and his body was stronger than Wei Chen and others! "

"Yes, Your Majesty, Yushi Han is not yet old enough to know his destiny, how can he be old and weak? Such a blatant deception, I request your Majesty to investigate strictly!"

"His Majesty……"

"Okay, okay!"

Zhu Di waved his hands a little irritably.

The whole hall suddenly became quiet.

Zhu Di stared at Han Wei and asked: "Han Qing family, do you think our Ming Dynasty should really accept the Tatars' begging for surrender?"

Han Wei's face lit up and he was about to reply, but he suddenly remembered something. He laughed sarcastically and replied slowly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am not a military expert. I just think that my Ming Dynasty is a country of etiquette, and there is also the great ancestor." Following the precedent set by the emperor, it was only then that he felt that he should accept the Tatars' begging for surrender.

If your Majesty has any objections, I will definitely follow your Majesty's wishes! "

"Oh?"

Zhu Di smiled faintly and looked at Han Wei with a strange look in his eyes.

"We didn't expect that the Han Qing family would be so loyal!"

Han Wei hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty has learned from you. I am loyal to Your Majesty. The sun and the moon can tell you!"

Zhu Di's expression remained unchanged, while Li Jinglong and other generals on the side scolded him with contempt.

"Pooh!"

"Shameless!"

"A capricious villain..."

Hearing this, although Han Wei was extremely angry, he just lowered his head and ignored it.
