Chapter 651: Minzhou

Shang Xi naturally didn't understand what Yun Xi was talking about, but it didn't matter, Yun Xi didn't want to teach Shang Xi.

Yun Xi got off the court in the morning, and after answering this morning's recital, he met Song Hu, and after Yun Xi was immersed in his thoughts and said something for more than an hour, it was already noon at this time, and Yun Xi immediately took Shang Xi to lunch.

Naturally, Yun Zhi made fun of her during the meal, and even Yun Yun, who had a relatively good sense of existence, and Yun Lan, who didn't even say anything during this time, laughed and laughed.

However, Yun Xi was not in the mood to do this, he remembered in his heart that Zhu Ji and Xu Huizu were inspecting various places in Sanqin, and thought: "I don't know what the soldiers in the Sanqin area are. After they have made their rounds, let them report on the excerpts. ’

……

……

"Ah, I'm dying of thirst, but I can finally drink enough water." Zhu Ji said this when he saw the water on the table, and immediately picked up a huge water cup and drank all the water in one go.

Of course, Xu Huizu's performance was not as exaggerated as his, but he also "goo-goo-goo" and drank a large glass of water into his stomach.

Zhu Ji drank the first cup of water and picked up the kettle again. He was so thirsty that he didn't even have time to ask the guards to pour him water, so he drank it directly into the kettle.

He didn't put the kettle down until his stomach was completely filled with water and he couldn't drink even a drop of water. He drank so much water that his stomach bulged slightly, as if he had just swallowed a pheasant.

Xu Huizu had also drunk enough water at this time, and recovered his spirit that was a little sluggish because he had not had water to drink for a long time, and smiled at Zhu Shu: "Your Royal Highness King Su, you are too indecent, you are afraid that you will let them prepare a few more water cups for you, and after drinking one cup and drinking another cup is much better than this." ”

Zhu Ji sat down on the chair and said, "Where can I take care of this!" ”

"It's not like I've never been hungry before. One year, the Mongols intercepted half of the grain that was being transported from Hetao, and although they did not take all the grain, they burned most of the grain, so that there was not enough grain to eat in Ganzhou. Lone took the lead and only ate six taels of food a day before Ganzhou Zhuwei could survive until another batch of grain arrived. ”

"I thought that drinking less water was the same as eating less, but I didn't expect it to be completely different. Every day, after drinking the two taels of water in the kettle, I feel that the rice is pulling my throat at lunch, which is too uncomfortable. ”

Since Zhu Ji and Xu Huizu left Ganzhou in mid-June, they first went to Xining, then rushed to Nianbo, Zhuanglang and other places to inspect, and left the Sanqin Xingdu Division in July to come to the Sanqin Dusi.

Starting from Lanzhou, they successively went to Didao, Guide, Qizhouwei and other places, and came to Minzhouwei in late July.

This place in Minzhou is located near Bashu, with steep cliffs and no water in many places. It is true that all garrisons have water sources, but there may not be water sources in between one garrison and another. Zhu Ji was not prepared for the first time to come to this kind of place, and he drank all the water halfway, and for the first time in his life, he realized how terrible it was to drink without water.

After a while, when Zhu Wei had basically recovered, Xu Huizu continued: "In the past few days, I have been patrolling in Minzhou Wei, and I think that the soldiers of Minzhou Wei are much stronger than those in Xining and other places. ”

"At that time, naturally, although Minzhou has not withdrawn from the defense of Jianfu, but this place has been recovered by Huining Hou and other commanders very early, this place is close to Xi'an, and the officials of Sanqin are also very concerned about the education of the people here, and it is not surprising that there is such a thing."

"Sanqin Xingdusi is too far away from Xi'an, and there are not many more Han people in the local area than Fanmin, especially after Shang Bing got a large number of people to Yiwu, the problem will be even more serious, even if you want to educate Fanmin like here, there are not enough people to educate." Zhu Ji said.

"Anyway, from Linzhao Mansion, Qizhou Wei to Minzhou Wei, the people here are quite loyal to the Ming Dynasty. I have been to Liangguang before, and the Tusi there are very obedient to the Ming Dynasty, and the people here are similar to them. It's always a good thing. Xu Huizu said.

"It's a good thing indeed." Zhu Ji also agreed.

After the two of them had dinner, Xu Huizu proposed to continue to inspect the various institutes, but Zhu Ji refused, Zhu Ji said: "Unless it is to return to the station of Minzhou Wei, tomorrow Gu will resolutely not continue to set off." The conditions here are too bitter, except for the station of Minzhou Wei, the conditions in other places are even more bitter than those in Ganzhou. Tomorrow you have to rest for a day. ”

"In fact, in addition to the lack of water, Minzhou is stronger than Ganzhou. I even think it's better here than Yunnan. Yunnan miasma is very heavy, when Fu Youde and others entered Yunnan, the number of people who died of illness was no less than that of those who died under the hands of the Yuan soldiers, and later there were no more soldiers from the Central Plains to Yunnan, and the soldiers who were stationed in the local guards were all locals. Xu Huizu said.

"According to what you say, isn't it a good thing that the eighteenth brother changed his title from Minzhou to Yunnan, and was later kicked from Kunming to Yongchang?" Zhu Ji said.

"But no, Minzhou is a continuous mountain to the west, and it is almost impossible to expand the territory if you want to; And the land of Yunnan, although it is dense with miasma, is easier to pass through than the continuous high mountains, and it is much easier to be rewarded if you want to make meritorious contributions. Xu Huizu said.

"Lonely look, my eighteenth brother is not a stable person, and it doesn't look like he is willing to live a stable life on the turf. In this way, he is most likely willing to go to Yunnan. Zhu said.

"I think so too." Xu Huizu said with a smile.

"Forget it, don't talk about him, will you go back to Minzhou Wei tomorrow?" Zhu said.

Xu Huizu was helpless. Zhu Shu, who was able to endure hardships along the way, revealed his princely nature when there was no water, and he was reluctant to continue to inspect other remote places. He couldn't leave Zhu Ji alone in this institute to continue the inspection by himself, and decided in his heart, 'When you go back to Ganzhou, next time I come here alone, I will inspect again,' and said: "Since this is the case, I will go back to Minzhou Wei." After resting for a few days in Minzhouwei, I went to the next place to make an inspection. ”

"Where is the next place?" Zhu Ji asked.

"Go to Xihe, Chengxian, Huizhou and other places in Gongchang Mansion. There are also some guards here that are mainly composed of fans. When you have seen these places, you will go to Hanzhong, and from Hanzhong to Xi'an, so that the entire southern region of Sanqin has been turned. ”

"Rest in Xi'an for a few days, and then go to those guards in the north of Sanqin, from east to west, just back to Ganzhou."
