"San'er! Mother is here! ”

At dusk, a cry sounded, and the shout contained full emotions, which made people cry when they heard it. Then, more shouts sounded, and although there were many people making sounds, they all roughly meant the same thing, that is, to recognize relatives and call people.

However, under the countless sincere shouts, the Yulin Army was still silent, and walked forward without a pause, only the sergeants who were shouted trembled slightly.

The women who shouted next to them did not expect any response, they only hoped that their voices could be heard by their sons, so that they could know that their father and mother were doing well.

"Dog baby, my father and mother are doing very well, and your salary and silver have also been received, don't worry, be a good soldier, and when the time comes, my mother will tell you about family affairs."

After shouting about their children, the women began to babble again, regardless of whether the children in the team could hear it or not. These plain words were even more touching than the shouts just now, and some of the Yulin sergeants who heard the familiar voices had moist eyes and tears sliding down.

However, no one ran out of the group, not even a single one turned to watch, and the whole team walked forward without the slightest pause as if they did not see these women and old people.

This shows the rigor of its discipline.

Listening to the voices that kept calling for his children, Zhu Youxiao was also very sad in his heart. For five years, none of the teenagers he recruited went home, and all of them were training non-stop. He wanted to give them a vacation and get them home together, but he didn't dare.

"Fortunately, there are not many days like this, and it is now the beginning of June of the forty-eighth year of Wanli, and it is only two months before Wanli's death." Zhu Youxiao suppressed all his emotions fiercely, and then said to himself silently in his heart.

It's coming, it's coming, my time is coming soon!

If someone carefully observes Zhu Youxiao's team, then they will find that this time the team is very large, and there are dozens more four-wheeled carriages alone, almost like moving. But it was true, and the dozens of extra carriages were full of equipment, spears, leather armor, and clothing for three thousand people.

These are all accumulated in the name of Zhu Youxiao's loss and replacement in the past few years, no more, no less, just three thousand. It happened that this time it was transported to the salt field in the name of field training.

At this time, the Yulin Army, compared with the first time to walk to Tianjin, the speed is much faster. Full-time training day by day, without distractions, dedicated to boiling up the body, training killing martial arts, undoubtedly made these 900 people physically strong, although it was noon, but by the time the sun set, they had already walked almost half of the distance.

After encamping and resting for a night, as soon as the day dawned, Yulinjun buried the pot to make rice, and after breakfast, they set off, and when it was almost noon, they had already walked to the salt field.

At this time, the salt works have completely changed, the entire seaside tidal flats, all surrounded by cement buildings, full of warehouses and salt houses, wide and straight cement roads, like huge blood vessels, the entire salt works into one.

With a large group of men and horses, along the widest main road, Zhu Youxiao came to the central area of the salt factory, where in the center was a three-story building, all made of cement. This house is the masterpiece of the construction team, and under the technological conditions of this era, the blacksmiths still built steel bars that can only support such a high, and any higher is dangerous.

This building is the center of the salt factory, and the flow of people in and out shows that it is very busy, and it is true, there are many things to do every day to collect salt, transport goods, and arrange production. Next to the small building, there are some houses made of cement, which is where the management of the salt works live.

In front of the small building, Wang Wenyan is leading a group of people, behind him is a group of people, Liu Bin, who is in charge of the salt farm, Lao Zhoutou, and the person in charge of the construction team, Ding Mian, he is a disaster victim who grew up in the construction team, it seems that he has read books before, knows a lot of words, because of his strong ability, righteousness, and high prestige among the people, he was promoted by Wang Wenyan and is responsible for the specific work of the construction team.

After some greetings, Zhu Youxiao led the team to station. The Yulin Army still abides by military discipline and does not live in private houses, but camps on its own and forms a camp alone. After many field training and training, Zhu Youxiong has long come up with a set of methods for camping.

The next day, as soon as it was dawn, Zhu Youxiao began to carry out his own plan, gathering 3,000 spearmen, and organizing them into the Yulin Army for training. The reason why he dared to be so bold and was not afraid of being exposed to gather these three thousand people, and the reason why he went out to train at this time was because of the news he got that night.

Wanli is in bed to recuperate!

In the forty-eighth year of Wanli, Emperor Wanli's health has been much worse than before, especially in recent months, he has been frequently ill, and taking medicine is even more commonplace, and July this year is his limit.

On July 21, Wanli died.

Of course, Zhu Youxiao knew so clearly, he only knew that in July, Wanli died. At this time, there is only a month left until July, and some of his actions can be carried out.

Emperor Lao Tzu was bedridden, and Zhu Changluo, as the crown prince, naturally had to serve the decoction and serve him closely, whether from the perspective of filial piety or from the transmission of power, he had to do so. The crown prince's position has long been consolidated, and taking over the throne has become a fact, and no one can stop it.

Although it is critical at this time, most people are not very concerned, even if the news of Emperor Wanli's poor health is transmitted outside the palace, the courtiers do not have much turmoil, and the class is still on the same day, and life is going on as usual.

Wanli has been in power for too long, so long that everyone will think that the name Wanli can be used forever. Even if Wanli's body has been complaining from time to time in recent years, no one has thought of that kind of thing. In the past few years, Wanli has been sick too many times, so many that it makes people numb, and every time the courtiers think that something will happen, there will always be news of the emperor's recovery.

After this repetition, no one ever had those subtle thoughts. Including this time, no one has any different opinions about Zhu Youxiao's trip, they think that it is the same as before, but a greedy teenager with his entourage went to check his own property.

In addition to the leaves to the high.

With a delicate mind, he found the extra carriages, and he always felt that the other party went out unusually this time, and it seemed that there was something behind his back.

Of course, these are just his instincts, an intuition cultivated over the years of ups and downs in the sea, without the slightest basis or reason. This idea, he just put in his heart, no one told him, but secretly, he strengthened his attention to the palace.

Wanli's health is sick, which is naturally the attention of everyone, and after Zhu Youxiao got out of this whirlpool at this time, it was equivalent to breaking away from the eyes of the courtiers and hiding in the dark. It was just this opportunity to carry out some plans to ensure that he could successfully ascend to the throne.

Because of the butterfly effect brought about by what he did, he always feels a little different at this time. It seems that some people have formed an alliance against him and restrict him. It can be seen from the matter of the Tiangong workshop that if it weren't for his strict precautions, if it weren't for the fact that his products really couldn't be replaced, and if it weren't for Wanli's very hostile to civil officials, all their twists and turns would not be released.

Without the above kind, Zhu Youxiao's little industry would have been occupied by people for various reasons, including the Tiangong workshop, including the salt farm, none of which could be saved.

Even Zhu Changluo, who was originally very close to him, has gradually distanced himself from him in the past few years, and every time he meets, he criticizes Zhu Youxiao, saying that he should not compete with the people for profit, and should not use the throne of Taisun to do business. The occurrence of Zhu Changluo's attitude, according to the information that Zhu Youxiao has mastered, among which Wang An played an extremely important role.

And Wang An is the most like a scholar among the eunuchs in the entire Ming Dynasty, in other words, Wang An is close to civil officials. And from the only reliable historical material on him - those things in the Ming Dynasty, I learned that Wang An and the Donglin Party were friends.

Zhu Changluo's attitude, in a certain aspect, is precisely the attitude of the Donglin Party towards him. Zhu Youxiao has very reason to suspect that among the forces that united behind the scenes and obstructed his development was the Donglin Party.

Wang An is very capable, since Zhu Changluo became the crown prince, he has been constantly solving problems for Zhu Changluo, supporting him all the way to the present. These were all seen by Zhu Youxiao and remembered in his heart.

It is precisely because Wang An is so capable, and there is the Donglin Party standing behind him, and the other party still has a certain hostility towards him, in order to ensure that he can go smoothly, Zhu Youxiao had to come to the salt field, take out the strength he secretly prepared, and carry out his own crazy and bold plan - hiding troops in the palace!

The civil officials of the Ming Dynasty were very bold, and later generations also had a lot of post analysis in this regard pointed out that the death of several emperors of the Ming Dynasty was faintly inextricably linked with the civil officials, whether this is true or not, Zhu Youxiao did not intend to gamble, he was used to taking everything into his own hands and stifling the variables, even if this practice was very risky.

In the palace, there are also officers in the last phase of training, including Qi Jin, Yu Zhigao, Wang Chengen, and Wei Zhongxian. Outside, he has eight hundred subordinates, Wang Wenyan, and Liu Ruoyu, as long as he plans carefully and covers it up properly, the risk is not very great.

Although three of the six people he relied on were eunuchs, this did not mean that these three people were very weak, and there was no incompetent person who could leave a name in history, and besides, after so many years of getting along, these three people had long been tied to his carriage, and there was no choice but to follow him all the way to the black.

Moreover, the entire Tibetan military plan was formulated by Zhu Youxiao alone, and the others did not know about it in advance, and only when the Tibetan military operation really began, he would call up people to act, and at that time, even if he wanted to leak secrets, it would be too late, besides, he did not want to rebel, but just wanted to make sure that he had ascended the throne.

Of course, the plan to hide troops will not be launched so quickly, at least until his cheap son Zhu Changluo hangs up. Zhu Changluo was known as the "January Emperor", and he hung up after only one month of reign, and in September, Zhu Youxiao ascended the throne with the year name Apocalypse.
