Chapter 230 Three birds with one stone (1)

Although the Ming Dynasty was able to overthrow the Fang Dynasty, drive Emperor Shun of Yuan and others into the grasslands, and then from Hongwu to Yongle, they repeatedly swept the grasslands in the northern desert, and defeated the Tatars and Ola to 700 pieces. These cavalry and firearms were once two magic weapons that were invincible, but now they are too far from that golden age. There are even many handguns made in the army during the Yongle period. As for the policy of raising horses, they have undergone many changes. Now, Yang Yiqing, who is in charge of raising horses in the west, is a capable person, so the horses in the Beijing camp have finally been replaced.

But that was the Beijing camp and the regiment camp. Now the two thousand vanguards of the government army still didn't even see a single horse hair. But this was nothing to the five hundred young soldiers who were sealed with swords. The title rewards and money made everyone excited, so they practiced the spear formation that Xu Xun suggested to Wang Shouren to improve. Although they only had a few moves, they only used the rounded bamboo pole in the front at first, which looked quite funny. However, as many people were injured due to lack of tacit cooperation, etc., everyone dared not underestimate this seemingly playful training, especially when Xu Xun ordered the upper end of the bamboo pole to sharpen.

If this is not careful, it will really kill people!

kill

In the midst of shouting and killing, Xu Xun was discussing the firearm with Wang Shouren. Xu Xun was very open-minded. After all, this avant-garde young army of the government army had no foundation before. No matter how they trained, it would be a joke to want to go to the battlefield within a year. But whether it was Zhang Yong's instigation, Liu Jin's hint, or even Miao Kui's previous show of goodwill, Tong said that such a group of people really wanted to pull up, and there was only one best way - the firearm. Therefore, he said a three-stage shooting at Wang Shouren at this moment, and then took a sip of water. Wang Shouren continued.

"When the King of Qianning pacified Yunnan, he relied on firearms and these three-stage shooting. This not only made up for the difficulty of firearms to fire continuously, but also kept the firepower output continuously. Moreover, Emperor Taizong of the North Expedition to the Shenji Camp was repeatedly made because of this firearm. But now, except for the Shenji Camp, other battalions have to use firearms on a daily basis. It is difficult to ascend to the sky. And if you really want a firearm, then you have to prepare. Those guarding the inner palace of the Shenji Camp who specializes in fire medicine are all insatiable people!"

Xu Xun used to think that three-stage shooting was an invention of foreigners, and later read a popular history lecture.

Only then did he realize that it was the founder of the ancestor sect. However, what he didn't expect was that Wang Shouren scolded the eunuch again after a few words, and he had to sigh in his heart.

This person is really unchanged!

At this moment, Ma Qiao's deliberately lowered voice suddenly came from outside: "Mr. Xu, Master Wang, the little marquis asks you to discuss something!"

With a word, Xu Xun almost jumped up at the same time as Wang Shouren. Although Wang Shouren hadn't seen each other for most half a month and still missed Zhu Houzhao, he did too much writing for His Royal Highness the Prince when he was kept in the dark a few days ago. He grabbed the hat on the side of the high court without thinking and said to Xu Xun without hesitation: "Brother Xu, you can deal with Your Royal Highness, I will urge them to practice first!"

Seeing Wang Shouren so fast, Xu Xun was stunned, but he had to go out. After drinking Maqiao, he came in. Seeing that he was so angry, he scolded him, "It's enough to just lead him in when he comes, why do you have to report it in a fuss?" But he hid a word and said nothing - just because of this announcement

Wang Shouren was frightened away!

“My adult

You don’t know that because the arrow of the Crown Prince when he was reading in the West Garden, no one in front of us would recognize the 500 people in the first place that the young marquis was the Crown Prince. Wouldn’t it be a lot of trouble to bring it in? And if there is something wrong, you can’t afford it if you have something to do. The person is in your barracks south, and the young one will not nod and you will pass by.

This honest and honest man now not only clever, but also knows to be a little irrelevant. Although Xu Xun laughed and scolded him a few times, he was quite approving. However, when he arrived at his own barracks, he saw that Zhu Houzhao was surrounded by several eunuchs and everyone looked extremely vigilant.

Xu Xun looked at this scene and was stunned: "Your Highness, you are..."

"Xu Xun, this condition is too bad, it is worse than that in Xiyuan!" Zhu Houzhao walked around Ma Yu Yongcheng in anger, shouting with lingering fear, "There are mice in your dignified commander's house!"

Xu Xun, who thought something big happened, suddenly didn't know what to say... Although the conditions in Xiyuan were not good in the past, Zhongxian was a royal family, which was much better than the old school ground outside Andingmen. As for the rats, he had seen them during military training in his previous life, and even more in the military camp. When he lived in an old wooden house, he could hear mice chewing on the beams at night when he was sleeping, and he was not surprised.

He had no choice but to be funny, but he could not show his face. He had to come forward to comfort and deceive him. Until Zhu Houzhao gradually calmed down, he gave him a message to him, but when he understood the purpose of His Royal Highness this time, he was stunned for a moment.

He was not Zhuge Liang who frowned and thought about it, so why did he ask him about such a thing?

When Xu Xun saw the look at him was full of blame for what you did. Liu Jinli was innocent, while Zhang Yong spread his hands helplessly. As for those who were familiar with him, they looked at each other with their eyes and nose, as if I didn't know anything. So Xu Xun simply knocked everyone out, asked Zhu Houzhao to sit down and carefully investigated all the requirements of the prince of the East Palace. Then he finally came up with an idea.

"Your Highness, I have an idea, please listen to me

…”

Zhu Houzhao didn't say anything and was a little suspicious at first, but as he listened, he became so energetic that he jumped up and patted Xu Xun's shoulder twice: "Okay, it's true, I know that only you can have this good idea! However, none of my hands is useful in writing poetry and articles. Could it be that you can write it? Yes, yes, Wang Shouren is determined to be good at this matter!"

"Why is the king in charge..." Xu Xun remembered Wang Shouren's appearance just fleeing in panic, and knew that this matter was on this person who was thinking about major issues such as military strategy, border affairs, and military formations. It would really cost people a lifetime. Only the people he knew had many ideas and methods, but most of them were not good. After thinking about it, a wonderful idea suddenly came to his mind.

"I'm not bothering the king. Your Highness also knows that he has worked very hard now, so I'll find another Gao Ming. In short, when you go back, you'll prepare what you should prepare first and rehearse what you should rehearse. In a few days, although it's not difficult, you can't make mistakes, right?"

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you!" Zhu Houzhao nodded happily

Before leaving, he smiled and gave Xu Xun a thumbs up, "I don't worry if you do your business!"

When he saw Zhu Houzhao away, Xu Xun took a flaw and told Liu Jin about Xiao Jing's previous attitude. Seeing that this old man in Shaanxi was still unwilling to accept it, he finally happily escorted Zhu Houzhao away. Only then did he think carefully.

Since Zhu Di moved the capital of Beijing in the early years of Yongle and designated it as the capital, this ancient capital that had been rising and falling for several years has gradually flourished. At first, there were barren wastelands on all sides of the city, with vast land and sparse populations. However, since a large number of palace servants and family moved to Beijing, plus luxurious ministers and nobles, these vacant lands were almost exhausted in decades. However, more and more southern merchants were rushing into Beijing to look for business opportunities. By the Hongzhi period, there were almost few empty houses in the inner city. The palace mansion gradually built sheltered houses outside Zhengyangmen to wait for southern merchants. The merchants who went north to do business also made great efforts without hesitation. Therefore, in a large area south of Zhengyangmen, hundreds of merchants gathered in a prosperous scene.

Compared with the Dagong-Governor-Governor-Governors in the inner city, it is not so cramped to build a house here.

Especially the giant merchants from Nanzhili and Fujian, Zhejiang and Guangdong
