With the end of the campaign against the Tsarist Russian Empire, Zhu Youxiao began to adopt economic cooperation with the Xiaoyuz Khanate, the Khiva Khanate, etc., and the army fought very little, for more important economic construction, Zhu Youxiao continued to turn part of the troops into construction corps, so that they could continue to stay there, enrich the population of the border areas, and if there was a war in a short time, they could also take up arms and continue to participate in the battle.

Sun Chuanting sat in Bingzhong Fort and became the newly established governor of Zhubao Province, managing all military and civilian affairs in this province, Zhang Bingzhong was in charge of military training, and his deputy was He Renlong, Shuo Lei sat in Zhubao and became a pure local administrator, and Batur became the newly established governor of Xiping Prefecture in Xiping City, responsible for military and civilian affairs in this area.

After Zhu Youxiao arranged these local affairs, he transferred all Mao Wenlong's troops back to Beijing, this guy belongs to the militants, and he is not as good as a few cadres under him to take care of local affairs, at least like Kong Youde, Shang Kexi and later the vassal kings of the Qing Dynasty, and Mao Wenlong is now only a general trained by Zhu Youxiao, and his three subordinates are now also fierce generals, they can't be idle, they need to continue to play their specialties in the army.

Mao Wenlong's troops were streamlined, and finally left a scale of 10,000 people, each of the three major subordinates brought 3,000 elites, and Mao Wenlong himself left 1,000 soldiers as escorts. These 10,000 elite soldiers are not only grass-roots officers who are the backbone, but also recruits who have performed outstanding in battles in recent years.

As for the soldiers who retired from Mao Wenlong's department, Zhu Youxiao did not let them collectively turn into a construction corps, but handed them over to Zheng Sanpao and let him be stationed in that nameless town, but now they have a name, the new name is Dingjun Fort, and the soldiers have become an armed police force, Zheng Sanpao has become the commander of the armed police in Zhubao Province, responsible for local security, this is a new form of armed force, will be mainly responsible for local security, and will also participate in formal battles if necessary.

After Mao Wenlong's troops were reorganized, Zhu Youxiao left them in the capital to continue training, and continued to maintain the most advanced equipment in terms of weapons and equipment, Zhu Youxiao did not want this army to guard the capital, that would be too wasteful, now the capital is safe even if there is no soldier garrison, the people live and work in peace and contentment, the officials work hard to deal with things, and foreign enemies will not be able to come here at all, Zhu Youxiao's purpose is to send this elite army to Zhu Youzhen and become the core of Zhu Youzhen's armed forces.

Since Zhu Youzhen was recalled to the capital at the end of the sixth year of the Apocalypse, Zhu Youxiao handed over many daily state management matters to him to take care of, at first to prevent himself from causing turmoil after his sudden accident, and then saw that he had no accidents, so he re-made the plan and continued to let Zhu Youzhen replace his daily management and exercise his leadership ability.

After nearly two years of testing, Zhu Youxiao found that Zhu Youzhen's ability is indeed outstanding, not only maintaining the hard work and diligence of his previous life, but also paying great attention to exercising his physique, and there will be no premature aging, and then Zhu Youzhen's suspicious and indecisive character is gone, but he is very good at listening to everyone's opinions, and he is also very assertive, and fully meets the conditions of a qualified monarch.

Since Zhu Youxiao arranged for Zhu Youzhen to fight with Mao Wenlong, Zhu Youxiao planned to send Mao Wenlong to Zhu Youzhen, so that Zhu Youzhen would have a strong army and loyal generals. Mao Wenlong did not live up to his expectations, put into practice the training methods of the soldiers he sent over, and trained a fierce and ferocious army.

Song Kangnian is the military advisor that Zhu Youxiao has prepared for Zhu Youzhen a long time ago, that is, the prime minister candidate after Zhu Youzhen, Zhu Youxiao also handed him over to Sun Chengzong early*, whether it is military, economic, or political talent, this guy is a good learner, and he is very proficient. Zhu Youxiao is rare in his heart, Song Kangnian is really worthy of being Li Zicheng's prime minister, compared to Niu Jinxing, this guy likes to enjoy much stronger, but everyone has their own strengths, Niu Jinxing is much more powerful than Song Kangnian in terms of accumulating money, and now it is still Zhu Youxiao's big treasury.

Zhu Youxiao called Zhu Youzhen to his study, and the two brothers sat together and had a thorough long talk, explaining to him their true purpose, except for the secret that he had crossed over, other topics such as what kind of country and social system to establish were explained to Zhu Youzhen one by one, which made Zhu Youzhen very surprised.

Zhu Youxiao said: "Brother, the first emperor died early, leaving only two of our brothers and two men, and my brother was weak a few years ago, so I had to let you suffer a lot, and I was tired in every way, not only to accept the harsh military school study, but also to go out to learn art, the purpose is that in case of an accident for my brother, you can accept the national honor and continue the glory of the Ming Dynasty." It is not only to expand the territory, but also to sweep away your competitors, which is why many cousins are arranged to establish overseas countries. ”

"Now that I see them all in the mix, I'm going to let you go out for a while. Now in North America, Fu Guan, Zhao Shujiao, and Man Gui only occupy a part of the coastal area in that place, which is also the room I left for you to develop in the future. I plan to let you take Mao Wenlong's 10,000 elite soldiers, as well as Song Kangnian's military advisor, and you will set off to North America together, and continue to expand the territory for the Ming Dynasty there and occupy more land. ”

"After arriving there, we will immediately establish the same various schools as the Ming Dynasty, whether it is a technical college or a military academy, we must build it, and then we will carry out a completely free compulsory education school, whether it is a child of the Ming Dynasty or not, even if it is a child of the local indigenous people, it will also carry out free compulsory education, and the cultural tradition of the Ming Dynasty will be passed on there, becoming the second Ming Dynasty."

"There are already two of our overseas territories in the south, you can jointly negotiate with them on how to develop there, as long as I am alive for a day, it is unlikely that they will be independent, you can try to cooperate with them, as for the future, it depends on your own ability, whether to let them become a country on their own, you can decide for yourself."

Zhu Youzhen quietly listened to Zhu Youxiao's narration, born in the children of the imperial family, there are countless things of fratricidal brothers, and he has also worried about the future, after all, only the two brothers are the sons of the first emperor, and they are not only the brother's helpers, but also the biggest threat to the throne, but from the way the brother treats the emperor's uncles and cousins, he is indeed sincere, and the relationship is very admirable.

Zhu Youxiao went on to say: "The dynasties in history have risen and fallen several times, leaving us countless lessons and lessons, but the most important point is the hearts of the people. Now that my brother can govern the Ming Dynasty to the peace of the country and the people, have you seen some tricks from it? How much can you understand? ”

"First of all, we must ensure that the people have the most basic conditions for eating and dressing, so that they are well fed and clothed, and there will be no rebellion." Zhou Gong spit and feed, the world returns to the heart', this is a moral issue, as long as you set an example yourself, others will follow suit, this is the education problem of traditional culture, it is very difficult to become a moral model, but someone must become a model. Moreover, it is necessary to master a strong source of wealth, possessiveness is born of human beings, people die for wealth and birds die for food, it is a popular truth, this is also the purpose of establishing the Ming Dynasty Royal Trading Company for brothers, only by mastering strong capital, can you implement your statecraft, the first grandfather was subject to this, so that the Donglin Party people made waves. The last is to master the army well, and the future military generals must be born in military academies, and the monarch is the dean of the academy, they are all disciples of the monarch, standing on the commanding heights of morality, controlling people's hearts by moral means, and making them lose the basis of rebellion. ”

Zhu Youxiao's views are not the same as the emperor's mental art in history, but they really grasp the key to the problem, making Zhu Youzhen feel that this is the real emperor's art, the foundation of the country, which has also become the cornerstone of Zhu Youzhen's founding in North America.
