Boom, boom, boom The thunder roared, the rain poured down, and in an instant the sky and the earth were dark, only the thunder exploded overhead, and the pouring rain poured.
Zhu Xu rode a horse, desperately beating his horse and galloping, behind him were Cao Bianjiao and Chen Huxiao, leading five hundred cavalry to gallop on the official road.
The convoy of them and Li Dingguo and others had long been separated, and everyone was wearing a coat and desperately beating their horses forward.
Away from the sky.
Jinwei is not far away, and only when you get there can you take shelter from the rain.
Cao Bianjiao followed Zhu Xu's side, looking at Zhu Xu from time to time, his eyes showing worry.
Although the emperor often exercised and could ride a horse, it was the first time that such a vigorous long-distance gallop was the first time, and the emperor's body might not be able to hold it.
Chen Huxiao was even more worried, the emperor was a 'delicate' existence, and if he fell off the horse like this, he would have to be trampled to death by the horse behind him.
Zhu Xu was covered in water, especially on his face, blinking and looking ahead.
The rain was surprisingly heavy, and if he hadn't followed the cement road, he wouldn't have been able to see the road ahead.
Cao Bianjiao wiped his eyes, looked up, still didn't know how far away, hit the horse to Zhu Xu's side, and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty, why don't we find a place to hide from the rain first, and then leave when we are a little younger?"
” Zhu Xu had a hot pain between his thighs, and he must have been bleeding, but he still gritted his teeth and said loudly: "Don't stop, you must rush to the sky in one go.
Tsue!
” Cao Bianjiao could feel the trilling sound in Zhu Xu's words, turned his head to look, and could only follow Zhu Xu's side with a frown, just in case.
It has been two and a half days since Zhu Xu came out of the capital.
The heavy rain is pouring, such as fog, fortunately, there is a cement road, so it will not be difficult to walk, and you can run in the rain.
While the pain was unbearable, Zhu Xu became more and more worried.
It's only April, and there is such a heavy rain, but I am afraid that this year's rain will be much more than in the past, I don't know if the river embankments everywhere can withstand such heavy rain, and there is also the fear that the heavy rain will become heavier and heavier in the future.
Great drought and great flood go hand in hand!
It took more than half an hour for Zhu Xu and a group of people to come to the sky.
The outer camp of Jinwei, day.
Li Bangmei, the commander of Jinwei, had been waiting for a long time and welcomed Zhu Xu's group in.
When he dismounted, the five hundred cavalry, including Chen Huxiao, all looked at Zhu Xu with a look of reverence and awe.
Zhu Xu knew the situation himself, did not dismount, and entered the camp on horseback.
In a barracks, Zhu Xu bared his teeth and applied ointment to himself.
In front of him stood Cao Bianjiao, Li Bangmei, Cao Bianjiao's expression was a little strange, he had followed Zhu Xu for many years, and it was the first time he had seen such a side of the emperor.
Li Bangmei was secretly frightened, since Xuanzong, which emperor of the Ming Dynasty has been riding a horse like this?
Li Bangmei is Li Banghua's younger brother, and is currently in charge of the affairs of the Tianjin Guard, with the rank of captain, and has 3,000 soldiers and horses.
It's also the day.
The reason for the serious decline in the strategic position of Jinwei is that the military department also has the intention of saving military salaries.
At present, the main responsibility of Jinwei is to arrange coastal defense, train the navy, and protect fishermen, and is a small land and sea dual-use base.
Zhu Xu gritted his teeth and smeared it, carefully wrapped it in a white cloth, and put on his pants, then he looked up at the two, especially Li Bangmei, and said with a smile, "The first time we met, did I disappoint you?"
” Li Bangmei's expression changed slightly, and she hurriedly raised her hand and said: "The emperor once said that the country is strong and the army is strong, and now he practices it, why be disappointed, he is ashamed!"
” Zhu Xu laughed, this Li Bangmei was more sleek than his brother, leaned on the chair and looked up, looking at the continuous heavy rain outside, and said: "Sit down, there is no way to go around this day, let's talk first, and when we eat later, I will go to meet the others." ” Li Bangmei didn't dare to move, and looked at Cao Bianjiao.
The emperor's rumors and impressions in the outside world are very complicated: first, 'martial arts' overshadowed the previous generations of emperors, swept away external troubles in just a few years, and wiped out the court's henchmen Jiannu.
But on the other hand, the emperor treated the clan harshly, even abusively, and outsiders couldn't see it. followed by the restructuring of Nanzhili, how many nobles landed on the ground, and their titles were cut.
The most important thing is that the emperor's treatment of the Donglin Party, which has been criticized among Shilin, I don't know how many people scolded the 'faint monarch' in front of people, and secretly it can be imagined.
It can be said that the emperor is indeed awe-inspiring in 'martial arts', but not only has he made no achievements in 'cultural governance', but he has even been crowned with the word 'stupid', which shows how Shilin views it.
With such a complex emperor, whoever meets for the first time has to be careful.
Cao Bianjiao had no different color, raised his hand and said 'thanks' and sat down on Zhu Xu's left side.
Li Bangmei raised her hand and said, "Emperor Xie."
Then he sat down opposite Cao Bianjiao.
Zhu Xu's legs were uncomfortable, and he reclined on the chair a little, looked at Li Bangmei and said, "Tell me about the day.
Jinwei, I'm here to see it this time. ” Li Bangmei had long known that the emperor was coming, and when he heard this, he reasoned his thoughts and said, "Back to the emperor, in military affairs, there are 500 naval officers and soldiers, 20 boats, daily training, patrols, and never delay."
The other 2,000 and a half were army troops, as well as 800 cavalrymen, who were also strictly trained, and were also responsible for some matters such as farming and reclamation.

About Government ......
Present days.
Jinwei has 2,000 hectares of land and 60,000 people from the southwest, all of whom have been resettled......"
Zhu Xu listened quietly and nodded secretly.
Sky.
Jinwei is a relatively barren place, and in the past, it was Li Banghua who consolidated the sky.
Jinwei has set up some institutions to reclaim land and resettle military dependents.
Li Bangmei is a military general, not good at speaking, and he doesn't know how to ask for credit for himself, so he said concisely for a while, "Your Majesty, God.
The population of Jinwei is increasing, and the matters involved are more complicated, so Weichen asked the emperor to set up an official office to deal with it. ” Zhu Xu raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "What's the matter, can't you deal with it?"
At the beginning, Li Banghua left the sky.
Jinwei has recommended a lot of people to me, but without you, I specially promoted you here, so don't let me down. ” Li Bangmei's expression changed slightly, and she quickly stood up, raised her hand and bowed, and said, "The emperor misunderstood."
The minister is a military general, and now there are more and more political affairs, involving a wide range of affairs, if you concentrate on dealing with these, it is inevitable to slack off military affairs, and you can't take care of both sides, so the minister suggested that the emperor set up an official office. ” Zhu Xu nodded slightly, and immediately thought of Tang Ruowang, he originally planned to drive the Western gang far away, but now he is a little moved.
Jinwei may be better, the colonists can use these missionaries to invade everywhere and conquer the world, and so can the Ming Dynasty!
Zhu Xu patted his thigh lightly, looked at Li Bangmei and said, "Well, your suggestion is good, I will order the cabinet to discuss it, and you still have to do your best during this time." ” "Yes."
Li Bangmei said, secretly relieved in her heart.
He's been under a lot of pressure lately, days.
Jinwei is rapidly expanding, and it cannot be without the government.
"Tell me about Haiphong."
Zhu Xu said, this is what he cares about the most.
Li Bangmei's expression was solemn, and she said, "Back to the emperor, heaven.
There are three barriers in Jinwei, the first is the navy, although the number of the navy is small, but after the implementation of reserves, there will be many naval soldiers who can fight, as long as the order is given, it can be expanded to 3,000 people in a short time, and there are fifty warships, three of which are equipped with artillery and other firearms.
The second is the turrets, fifty turrets are expected to be built everywhere, hundreds of artillery pieces, and it is extremely difficult for intruders at sea to go ashore.
The third is on land, where we plan to build well-developed defenses and offensive fortifications to ensure that the days are complete before reinforcements arrive.
Jinwei does not lose ......"
Zhu Xu knew that everything was still being planned, and he should not be able to see what Li Bangmei said at present, so he thought for a while and said, "Well, when the weather is better, I will go to the turret to have a look."
In addition, we must be vigilant at all times, continue to strengthen the army, and maintain the combat effectiveness of our Ming army above all enemies, which is the confidence and goal that the army should have.
The corruption of Liaodong is not unrelated to the abolition of military discipline, so if you write an article on how to strengthen the army in peacetime and why the army is strong, show it to me, and if it is well written, it will be published in the court newspaper. ” Li Bangmei is also a Jinshi, so it is naturally easy to write articles, but the article must be reviewed by the Ministry of War, so won't his name enter the eyes of the emperor and the adults in the court?
"Yes!"
Li Bangmei looked excited, raised her hand and said in a deep voice.
Zhu Xu smiled and nodded, he wrote this article, Zhu Xu was signed.
As the country's situation stabilized, there were already voices in the imperial court calling for disarmament and reducing military spending.
Daming's army is only more than one million, and there are constant crises everywhere, such a voice seems extremely short-sighted, and it is a kind of inertial thinking, Zhu Xu wants to respond forcefully, so that the outside world knows his attitude.
Soon it was dinner time, Zhu Xu endured the pain and pretended to be fine, and appeared in the soldiers' canteen.
"See the Emperor's ......"
These people had already prepared, and they had to salute as soon as they saw Zhu Xu coming.
Zhu Xu waved his hand and said loudly: "It's all polite, sit down and eat, I'm also hungry, and I don't need everyone to accompany me." ” The soldiers all froze their faces, and their eyes did not leave Zhu Xu.
Zhu Xu was already used to it, and accompanied by Cao Bianjiao, Li Bangmei, Chen Huxiao and others, he went to a big table in front of him and sat down one after another.
Zhu Xu took a look, this Li Bangmei has eyesight, and knows that Zhu Xu wants to 'have fun with the soldiers', and he doesn't do any big fish and meat, which is basically the same as the soldiers.
"Eat, all eat, let them eat too."
Zhu Xu picked up the chopsticks, and he was already hungry.
Li Bangmei quietly glanced at Cao Bianjiao, and said to Zhu Xu: "Your Majesty, do you want to say a few words to the generals, they have never seen the emperor......"
Zhu Xu had already picked up the bowl, waved his hand and said: "I don't know how to be a soldier, so I won't talk nonsense, let's eat, the canteen is for eating, not for listening to my nonsense." ” Li Bangmei was stunned, the emperor's style of acting was completely unreasonable, and the previous routines were not suitable......
Zhu Xu devoured it, maybe he ate too many coarse cakes along the way, and the wine and vegetable soup here are really delicious, especially appetizing.
Zhu Xu ate chopsticks together, Cao Bianjiao, and Chen Huxiao ate one after another, and it was not the first time they had eaten with Zhu Xu, so they were relatively relaxed.
Li Bangmei couldn't figure out what Zhu Xu was thinking, so she had to pick up chopsticks and let everyone else sit down to eat at the same time.

Soon, nearly 200 people in the canteen sat down to eat, and the strange thing was that the whole canteen was silent, quiet and terrifying!
