When arranging various support matters prepared by Zunhua for Xifengkou, Zhu Youzhen felt that he had discovered the true meaning of the Ming Dynasty's "Son of Heaven guarding the country".

Yongle Emperor Zhu Di really deserves the title of the Emperor.

His vision and ambition are by no means comparable to ordinary people. Zhu Youzhen's heart pounded with excitement for his discovery.

What "the Son of Heaven guards the country", the Yongle Emperor should never have thought of the word "guard"! In the heart of Emperor Yongle, it should be "the gate of the town of Tianzi", right?

Emperor Yongle, who was stationed in the north all the year round, insisted on moving the capital to the north, not because he was afraid of the so-called Jianwen Yu Party. Maybe he just didn't want the smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River to corrode his Ming ambitions, right?

The greater significance of the relocation of the capital by the Yongle Emperor was to establish a complete base for attacking northward.

As long as there is a capital city, in the face of the threat from the north, the most elite Beijing camp of the Ming Dynasty can be ready to go out of the fortress at any time.

With the capital in place, the Ming Dynasty can complete the preparations for the attack in the shortest possible time, and can launch an effective attack on the northern grasslands at any time.

The Great Wall, in the eyes of Emperor Yongle, was not a building for defense, it was just a further forward base for the Ming Dynasty to attack the enemy in the north.

From this point of view, the defects in the defense of the capital are completely non-existent. In the Yongle era, what enemy could withstand the attack of the Ming Dynasty and attack the capital of the Ming Dynasty instead?

Zhu Di, who failed to completely conquer the grassland, probably hoped that his descendants would be able to completely solve the security problems in the north, and expand the frontier beyond the grassland by attacking, so that the capital could gain real strategic security.

Zhu Di may be afraid that his descendants will forget the safety of the frontier among the women of the deep palace, and he reminds his descendants with the nearby frontier.

Next to the couch, how can you allow others to snore!

It's a pity that the unscrupulous descendants of later generations have turned the capital, a good offensive base, into a defensive base. From this point of view, it cannot but be said that Wenchen has misled the country.

Zhu Youzhen was really saddened by his new discovery.

Thinking back to the Yongle era, the army of the Ming Dynasty was invincible in all directions; The Daming Navy is the world's largest ocean-going navy.

What a powerful navy that can deliver an army of 26,000 people to thousands of miles away from the sea frontier!

This data was not possible until the Opium War in the previous life, when the sun never set, the British Empire.

Yongle era, what a majestic and glorious era.

It's a pity, it's a pity.

In the pen of the Ming literati, the Yongle Emperor left the focus on his four-character comments on the brutality and ruthlessness of the ten tribes.

The great exploits of Emperor Yongle to conquer the four seas are not as good as a "Yongle Canon" compiled by his subordinates.

This is the so-called tradition of the Ming Dynasty to control military force with literature.

Thinking about the Yongle era, did the Ming Dynasty use literature to control the military?

In the Hongzhi Dynasty, Liu Daxia's fire burned all the glory of the Yongle era, and the fire also completely destroyed the offensive strategy of the Ming Dynasty.

From this point of view, it is not an exaggeration to say that Liu Daxia is a sinner of China through the ages.

Of course, Liu Daxia is only a representative of Daming Wenchen, and Liu Daxia alone will never be able to do this.

Since the time of Hongzhi in the Ming Dynasty, the ministers of the Ming Dynasty have imprisoned the Son of Heaven of the Ming Dynasty step by step.

The capital has also gradually transformed from an offensive base into a huge prison cage. The invincible heroes of the former Ming Dynasty have also transformed into jailers in the capital who can only put on a scary appearance.

Pathetic, pathetic!

Zhu Youzhen's heart is unspeakably uncomfortable, this is the Ming of the literati.

Looking at Daming's freehand map, Zhu Youzhen only felt that there was a fire burning in his heart.

Along Zunhua, Xifengkou to the grassland, even on this freehand map, it is still a good way to use soldiers.

If the Ming court doesn't do it, then let it be done by Lone!

Zheng Ping carefully adjusted the harness on his body for the Zhang Dog baby in front of him as he walked.

Although his hands were adjusting to reduce the burden of the teenager, Zheng Ping was secretly happy in his heart.

"The newcomers have suffered enough now, right?"

Newcomer?

The young man in front of Zheng Ping is actually no longer a newcomer.

These teenagers are all from the youth team of Yanshenzhen Manor, and although they are newcomers compared to Zheng Ping, they can also receive more than three months of training.

According to the study habits of the Xinwang Mansion, it is time for these teenagers to leave the school.

I don't know if it's a psychological factor.

During the training, Zheng Ping always felt that the actions of these teenagers were a little awkward.

Although the basic training of newcomers has been completed, it seems that these newcomers are always not in place in terms of details. Compared with the old man who came out of the palace, there seems to be a big gap. But if you really want to ask for it, it doesn't seem to make a difference.

It wasn't until the teenagers went to Zunhua from Yanshen Town, Qingzhou, this time that Zheng Ping found that his feeling was not wrong, and the newcomer did have a lot more problems than the old man who came out of the Xinwang Mansion.

Everything was fine when the team left at the beginning. But with the extension of time and distance, all the small problems that could not be seen in the training of newcomers were exposed.

The leggings are not tied tightly enough, the backpack is too loose or too tight, and even eating, sleeping, and going to the toilet are exposed to various problems.

Is it because the training requirements are not strict enough?

No.

Zheng Ping felt that he had the same requirements for Niu Jinxing (Niu Er) at that time, and Niu Jinxing did a good job.

Is it because there are too many people trained and the instructors can't take care of them?

Neither is it.

When the Shin Wangfu later trained new recruits, the instructors and team members also had a 1-to-5 ratio.

What's wrong with that?

Zheng Ping was confused.

The long-distance march was already very difficult, and this time the youth team was not like a car when they went to Yanshen Town from the capital. This time, both old and new, they have suffered a lot. Among them, the newcomers suffered a lot because of the small problems in the details.

After half a month of arduous trekking, Zunhua is finally coming.

Thinking about the hardships along the way, Zheng Ping was very emotional: Sure enough, if you read thousands of books, you still need to walk thousands of miles.

Zheng Ping found that all the results of the training, both good and bad, were reflected in this march. After this march, he had a deeper understanding of the training syllabus issued by King Shin.

Looking at the uniform equipment on the teenagers and the consistent marching dress, Zheng Ping suddenly had an irreverent thought: "Has His Royal Highness King Xin traveled thousands of miles?" ”

His Royal Highness King Shin probably hasn't walked through, right?

How could something that could be trusted by the king's religion be so realistic?

The most important thing is that the outline handed down by His Royal Highness King Xin, as far as Zheng Ping knows, has never had such a training method in the Ming army.

Where did Shin learn it?

Zheng Ping was puzzled.

Isn't the knowledge of King Xin a gift from heaven?

His heartbeat suddenly accelerated by a few beats, and Zheng Ping didn't dare to continue thinking about it. He shouted loudly: "Zhang Gouwa, have you suffered this time?" Let you practice your movements unstandardly. ”

"Huh." Zhang Gouwa didn't reply, only smiled innocently.

Looking at Zhang Gouwa's innocent smile, Zheng Ping had a headache.

Zhang Gouwa's performance is the most troublesome. He seems to be obedient, and he listens to everything you say, but no matter how you teach, he seems to be lacking a little.

"If only Niu Er was here." Zheng Ping is now extremely nostalgic, and believes in the seemingly honest but cunning Niu Jinxing (Niu Er) in the Wangfu.
