Chapter 179: Hunting (2)

Zhu Qizhen stared at the map for a long time, and said, "Please don't take it lightly, and set the charter." "When he fights against Warat, he will follow this.

"Yes." Zhang Fu also thinks so, it is related to the fortunes of the Ming Dynasty and the face of the emperor, how can he be careless?

Zhang Ning said solemnly: "This time, we must test the combat strength of each battalion, and those who fail to meet the requirements will be cleared out, don't be soft." ”

Zhu Qizhen bowed slightly, with a look worthy of being a good brother. Zhang Fu said approvingly: "Lord Zhang can say this, which shows sincerity. ”

You mean I've grown up, right? Zhang Ning wanted to roll his eyes, but finally held back.

The three of them discussed strategy and tactics, Zhang Ning and Zhang Fu said goodbye and walked on the path, Zhang Fu said in a deep voice: "A-Ning, do you really want to be more serious?" ”

"Huh?" Zhang Ning was puzzled and raised his eyes to look at him.

"Just start the gun, but 'Thundering' doesn't have long eyes, if there are people plotting against the Divine Machine Battalion......" Zhang Fu didn't finish speaking, but his worry was fully revealed.

His worries are not unreasonable, as long as a sergeant throws the 'thundering' in front of the emperor's imperial tent, Gu Xingzu will punish the nine clans for treason, Zhang Ning will also be pulled, this thing was invented by him.

It was precisely after thinking about this that he suggested that the imperial tent be set up at the highest point of the West Mountain, which was extremely far away from the place where the exercise would be. Zhang Ning said: "Grandpa Guo don't worry, even if there are people with natural divine power among the sergeants, it is impossible to throw it that far." Besides, Gu Houye arranged the gunner, as long as someone did not listen to the command, he would be killed immediately. ”

Knowing that this thing is dangerous, how can you not prevent it? This is a major event for the Nine Clans.

Zhang Fu didn't say anything more, and after arriving at his Chinese army's big tent, he immediately gave an order: "Tomorrow the fifth watch will make rice, the fifth watch will be lined up at three o'clock, and the exercise will start at the end of the day." ”

The word drill was learned from Zhang Ning, and he thought it was quite vivid, so he used it.

The sergeants of the three battalions were in an uproar, and the three major commanders all thought that it was just a royal parade, and there was no need to be so serious, it was completely possible to bury the pot in the middle of the day to cook and line up at the hour, so why get up so early?

Xue Xue asked to see Zhang Fu as soon as possible, trying to persuade him to change the hour, but was told that the British Duke had fallen asleep, so he had to return to the account in a huff.

Song Ying hesitated, and finally decided to follow the order, and the whole camp turned off the lights.

Gu Xingzu came to Zhang Ning to ask what was going on, and was also told that Zhang Ning had slept, and then looked at Zhang Ning's camp, the lights had been turned off, so he had to go back with a stomach full of question marks.

The civil officials had all kinds of ideas and said anything, only Yu Qian received an order to turn off the lights and go to bed early, and fell asleep as soon as his head was on the pillow.

Before setting off, the sons and daughters of the nobles had to be instructed by their fathers that it was rare to drive with them, and they must behave well, and it was best to be discovered by the emperor, if they were not discovered by the emperor, they would ask Zhang Ning for help and find a way to attract the emperor's attention. In short, whether you can find a future in the future is a matter of these days. So after receiving the order, I went to bed with him to nourish his spirits.

…………

On the fifth watch, halfway up the west mountain, on the camp, the fire was bright, the people were noisy and the horses were neighing, and soon the fragrance of food wafted in.

The sky will be bright, and the clouds on the horizon will reveal a line of fish belly white. In the open field, the personnel participating in the exercise had already completed their formations, the three battalions were at their peak, the sons and daughters of the nobles were full of energy, and the civilian officials were weak in their spirits, and their spirits were a little weak, but they were fighting one by one.

Zhu Qizhen was dressed in military uniform and rode on a white horse, and the white-bearded old man in court clothes on the left was Zhang Fu; On the right side of the jujube red horse is a young man in a python robe, who is Zhang Ning.

"Your Majesty, it's time to win."

"Let's go."

"The imperial parade begins, and the three armies listen to the order......" Zhang Fu passed down one military order after another, and each battalion received the order, and then acted.

Zhu Qizhen lightly clamped the horse's belly, the white horse galloped to the top of the mountain first, Zhang Fu bowed to see him off, Zhang Ning followed closely, and the civil officials led by Yang Shiqi followed Yuguan.

Soon the group came to the top of the mountain, Zhu Qizhen dismounted, and the accompanying ministers abandoned their horses one after another.

"Zhang Qing, let's watch it together." Zhu Qizhen's eyes fell on Zhang Ning, who had just tied the reins of the horse and passed over.

There are already chamberlains who have set up tents on the top of the mountain, put up royal chairs and tables, and have melons and fruit snacks. Zhu Qizhen did not enter the tent to rest, but walked to the open space in front of the imperial tent and came to the edge of the cliff.

"Your Majesty, no." Jia Xiaosi persuaded. If you stand so close, if any of your courtiers has bad intentions, you will be crushed to pieces as long as you push with your hand.

"It doesn't matter." Zhu Qizhen said lightly. He was dressed in military uniform, his posture was heroic, and the first rays of morning light pierced through the clouds and sprinkled on him, as if gilding him with a layer of golden light.

Zhang Ning said: "Tables and chairs can be set up here, and Your Majesty can sit and watch." "With the tables and chairs, Zhu Qizhen can't stand too close, and he can stop all people with two hearts to the greatest extent.

The civil officials are twitching, the emperor is sitting here, they can only be separated on both sides, so what do you think?

Yang Shiqi said: "Your Majesty, Lord Zhang's idea is very good. In this way, the emperor is not in danger, and he can watch the drill comfortably, killing two birds with one stone.

Zhu Qizhen bowed his head slightly, Jia Xiaosi instructed the attendants to carry the tables and chairs in the imperial tent and put them away, Zhu Qizhen sat down, gave Zhang Ning, Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong, and Yang Pu to sit, and the rest of the civil officials could only stand in the open space.

Many civil officials secretly scolded Zhang Ning and Yang Shiqi in their hearts: "You can take advantage of all good things, the little one is cunning, and the old one is treacherous." ”

When the clouds on the horizon are like the Red Sea, a big flag is waved on the flat ground halfway up the mountainside, and a huge "Gu" character on it flies up and down. This is the action of the Divine Machine Battalion.

Zhu Qizhen nodded, Zhang Ning took out a small flag, got up and walked to the edge of the cliff, and waved it three times downward. Before he could get back to his seat, there was a loud "boom" on the mountainside, and smoke and mud mixed with fire splashed everywhere.

"Your Majesty, be careful." I don't know who shouted, is this the earth dragon turning over? The civil official looked around in shock, but he stood far away and didn't see the movement of the mountainside.

Zhu Qizhen not only didn't pay attention, but got up and walked to the edge of the cliff to watch. Zhang Ning was the same, but he was about two feet away from Zhu Qizhen and took a step back.

San Yang also got up and walked over, and Yang Shiqi stood a little farther away to avoid suspicion.

Halfway up the mountainside, firelights kept flashing, smoke and dust filled the sky, and the earth shook the mountains.

Song Ying, who was staring at this, couldn't hide his ecstasy, he knew that the 'thunder' was extraordinary, but he didn't expect it to be so outstanding. Xue Xue regretted that he didn't let Xue Han and Zhang Ning move around earlier, and gave such a good thing, how could Zhang Ning be an idle person?

The generals are all frightened, if these things are thrown on them, will they still have their lives?

The soldiers of the 3,000 battalion clutched the reins of their horses, and the ears of the horses were stuffed with cotton strips, but the tremors on the ground still made the horses extremely uneasy. Don't let anything happen at this point. Quite a few people prayed silently.

The five military battalions are a mixed cavalry and infantry unit, and the ears of the war horses are also stuffed with cotton strips, and the infantry are excited, and many people whisper: "Is it okay to throw this on the battlefield?" "That's too simple, seeking military merit is like digging for something.
