Li Dingguo did not disappoint Zhu Youlang, and soon drafted a charter to submit it to Zhu Youlang for Yulan.

Zhu Youlang was still very satisfied after reading it. Although this charter was mentioned in all details, it was considered to be covered by the key points.

Zhu Youlang then approved a few pieces and handed them over to the Ministry of War to formulate a plan.

Zhu Youlang did not move the plan of Li Ding Guodao, the only place where he moved was the Hu Ben Army.

Li Dingguo means that the Hu Ben Army is the personal army of the emperor, and there is no need to serve as the main force to attack Changsha, just as the reserve force in the rear.

But Zhu Youlang didn't agree.

Although the Tiger Army has grown rapidly after the baptism of recent wars, it is still much worse than the direct troops such as Li Dingguo.

In Zhu Youlang's opinion, the Hu Ben Army still has many improvements.

The army can only maintain its combat effectiveness by constantly fighting, otherwise it will sooner or later become a guard of honor like a Jinyiwei.

For this reason, Zhu Youlang decided to go to the Hu Ben Army's headquarters in person to inspect the army that belonged directly to him.

...

...

Zhao Xu, deputy general of the Tiger Army, was shocked when he learned that the emperor was about to arrive.

He was completely unprepared!

Since the position of the general of the Hu Ben Army was vacant, Zhao Xu was actually the supreme general of the Hu Ben Army.

He hurriedly ordered his personal soldiers to blew the horn and assemble the soldiers. All soldiers must gather at the school ground for a limited time of incense.

Fortunately, the emperor also notified him in advance. If he suddenly appeared, Zhao Xu really didn't know what to do.

"Brother Xuzi, do we have to prepare the incense table and take a shower in advance? I heard that the ministers have to do this when they meet the emperor."

When Li Shitou heard that the emperor was coming to the military camp, he was both surprised and happy.

Zhao Xu gave him a blank look and said, "Stop causing trouble here. That is the constitution for the saint to enter the palace. Can Your Majesty be the same when you arrive at the military camp? Besides, you also know Your Majesty's character. He hates this kind of red tape the most."

Li Shitou scratched his head and laughed, "I just said that, Brother Xuzi, don't care."

Zhao Xu shook his head helplessly.

There is really no good way to deal with this fellow villager and kid.

As he was chatting, his personal soldiers suddenly came to report that the sage had arrived.

Zhao Xu hurried to welcome the horse, and Li Shitou followed.

When he came to the gate and saw the emperor wearing military uniform, Zhao Xu was a little moved.

The emperor has always paid great attention to these details and always wears military uniforms whenever he comes to the military camp.

"I, Deputy General of the Hu Ben Army, Zhao Xu, will meet Your Majesty, long live my emperor."

Zhao Xu knelt on one knee and clasped his fists and said politely.

"General Zhao will calm down."

Zhu Youlang nodded at Zhao Xu and said in a harmonious voice.

"I came this time to see how the soldiers were doing, and there is another important thing to announce."

"Please please, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Xu stretched out his arm and said respectfully.

Zhu Youlang walked towards the schoolyard surrounded by everyone.

This is not the first time Zhu Youlang inspects the Hu Ben Army, but his own son likes him. Whenever he has time, Zhu Youlang wants to come and take a look.

He climbed to the spot and glanced at everyone and said loudly: "I am here to see how you train and have you been lazy. Then I will announce a decision. The army will go on an expedition to attack Changsha soon! The Hu Ben Army is also among them as the main force."

Zhu Youlang paused for a moment, and then continued silently: "I know that some of you want to ask if you just came to Wuchang? Why did you fight Changsha again? I can tell you now, because the people in Changsha are still bullied by the Tartars!"

"You are all children of poor families, and you should be able to understand the feeling of not being able to eat. In the eyes of the Tartars, the Han people are the animals that create value for them to support them! As the emperor, I am naturally unable to sit idly by the heavens! This world is still in the hands of the Donglu, so there will be thousands of people living with tears like the people of Changsha! Changsha is just the beginning. I not only want to conquer Changsha, but also regain the two capitals and 13 provinces. I not only want to recover the inner and the inner palaces, but also the Liaodong!"

"I want to drive the Donglu to Ningguta, and I want my people to be able to stand up straight and be human, rather than be animals for the Tartars!"

"It is not enough to rely on me alone. There are still thousands of you. You are all good men of the Han family. Can you do it?"

"Fight! Fight! Fight!"

The soldiers of the Hu Ben Army shouted in unison.

Zhu Youlang was very satisfied and continued in a deep voice: "So you must do your best to the battle of Changsha. You cannot embarrass me or the Han family!"

"So hard for your Majesty!"

"Kill the enemy and serve the country!"

"Kill the enemy and serve the country!"

Zhu Youlang pressed his hands down and signaled the soldiers to keep quiet first.

"I will order the general to serve as a supervisor to send the newly produced guns and cannons to the Hu Ben Army. I cannot guarantee anything else, but I can guarantee that the equipment of the Hu Ben Army is the strongest in the entire Ming army!"

"As for military pay, you don't have to worry about it. In addition to the one allocated by the Ministry of War, I have also withdrawn part of the subsidies from the inner treasury to the Hu Ben Army!"

Everyone was moved when they heard this.

The treasury is filled with the emperor's private money.

The emperor did not hesitate to take out his private money to supplement the army, just so that they could kill the enemy with peace of mind.

This intention is really good!

As for Zhao Xu, he was already moved beyond words.

The emperor is really his mentor.

I didn't meet the emperor, he was just a country bumpkin who was digging for food and eating in the land.

After meeting the emperor, he was promoted all the way and became the deputy general of the first army.

Everything is like a dream.

As for the muskets and cannons, the emperor was also close to the Tiger Army.

Although other troops are jealous, they don’t have much to say.

Zhao Xu no longer knows how to repay the emperor.

"So hard for your Majesty!"

"So hard for your Majesty!"

With Zhao Xu taking the lead and shouting, the soldiers of the Hu Ben Army shouted together and shook the sky.

After reviewing the army, the emperor wanted to chat with Zhao Xu alone.

Zhao Xu led the emperor to the central army's tent, and after he stepped back, Zhu Youlang said in a deep voice: "Let's sit in Zhao Qing's house."

How dare Zhao Xu not respond, the emperor gave him a seat, but he sat very cautiously, leaning forward and focusing his gravity was completely in front.

"Zhao Qing's family, I will also go with me to attack Changsha this time. The King of Jin originally wanted to let the Hu Ben Army and I stay in the rear. But I think it is inappropriate. How can I stay in the rear and enjoy the happiness and watch the soldiers fight?"

"Your Majesty loves soldiers as much as his son, I admire them!"

"Don't say these flatteries again. I don't want you to become those slick old guys."

Zhu Youlang said half-jokingly.

"If Your Majesty personally attacked, I don't know whether to follow the King of Jin or stay in the Hu Ben Army."

"This time I want to stay in the Hu Ben Army."

Zhu Youlang expressed his true thoughts.

"Although the King of Jin is loyal, I still need to cultivate my own team. Zhao Qing is my loyal minister!"
