He knew that today's ambition is not only to become an emperor who rules vertically, what he has to do is what an earth-shattering feat, and Emperor Taizong, who created the prosperous era of Yongle, is one of the goals that His Majesty wants to surpass today.

Moreover, today's ambition is not limited to this, although His Majesty has not said it explicitly, but in private, he revealed some obscure news to Yang Hong and himself, and the eyes of the Ming Empire must no longer be limited to the land of Kyushu and the homeland of China.

With such an ambitious emperor, this is definitely great news for the warriors of the Ming Dynasty, bringing them endless imagination and a bright future.

As a model among the younger generation of soldiers, Shi Biao is full of confidence in his future, under the influence of Zhu Qizhen, from today's point of view, his uncle Shi Heng, who was originally regarded as an idol, has become a goal that he must surpass in Shi Biao's eyes.

"The future of the Ming Dynasty will be in your hands, remember, the iron hooves of the Ming Empire will never stop advancing and pioneering......" Zhu Qizhen in the inner school field, the bold words of those elite soldiers, still ringing in Shi Biao's ears, stirring his hard work, surging non-stop...... Compared to the prison, Wang Wen, who was already in much better spirits, followed behind a large inner guard, silently walking in the west garden where the winter snow covered the ground, the branches of trees and houses, and every hundred steps or so, you would see five guards with knives wearing thick and warm cotton armor, but in the chest and abdomen, Wang Wen saw a rather strange, like a curved mirror-like large armor composed of a half-body chest armor. This made Wang Wen couldn't help but look at it with some curiosity, but unfortunately, the guards with knives who patrolled the West Garden quickly disappeared from Wang Wen's sight.

"Lord Wang is quite curious about these armors?" The guard with a knife who led the way saw Wang Wen's expression, and couldn't help but ask with a smile, but between his eyebrows, he couldn't help but reveal a trace of pride and self-satisfaction.

"Well, this official is indeed quite curious, although this official is not familiar with martial arts, but he has also seen my Ming Dynasty's armor and soldiers, but he has never seen this kind of armor, so I can't help but take a few more looks." Wang Wen said as he walked with his long beard, and the snow under his feet creaked when he stepped on the pair of official boots.

"My lord doesn't know, this kind of armor is one of the new ordnance of the Xuanfu Arsenal, it is made of stainless steel, and it weighs no more than fifteen catties, but it can withstand the sword melee attack, the bow and crossbow are shot from a distance, and it is the most convenient and quick to wear." The guard explained with a smile.

--------------------, "Oh, the Xuanfu Arsenal actually has this ability?" Hearing the guard's words, Wang Wen couldn't help but be a little stunned. In the past, the old man really hadn't heard of such an excellent workshop in Xuanfu, could it be that His Majesty built it in Xuanfu? ”

"This is natural, Your Majesty felt that my Ming Dynasty's military armor was too cumbersome and complicated, and the logistics supply was extraordinarily difficult, so he ordered the construction of the Xuanfu Arsenal to produce standardized armor and soldiers."

"The last general is also these few ways to see this thing, don't look at it is only a dozen pounds of weight, but because it is made of stainless steel, the frontal defense, absolutely top-notch, the last general has also tried it with a bow and crossbow sword, can not enter. If it weren't for the excessive weight of the steel, if it was draped all over the body, it would definitely make it difficult for the soldiers to move, let alone deal with the enemy. Otherwise, if it is a whole body......" At this, the guard couldn't help but shake his head with some regret.

Thinking of a person stuffed into this kind of shiny iron can, slashing with a knife and axe, but still able to jump alive, Wang Wen, who fell into the crookedness, couldn't help but straighten his eyes, stumbled in his footsteps, and almost hit the dead tree on the side of the road.

The guard didn't see Wang Wen holding on to the dead tree and hurriedly walked back to the embarrassment of the road covered with ice and snow, and still introduced the new equipment of the pro-army guards in Zhu Qizhen to this Zuodu Yushi with great interest, in addition to the plate armor and helmets, there are also a lot of new equipment, but unfortunately Wang Wen is a Wenchen after all, and he didn't see the real thing, so he naturally heard the clouds.

In fact, in the West, from the 16th century to the early 17th century, plate armor really entered its heyday, this kind of heavy armor, can effectively resist the attack of hot and cold weapons at that time, whether it is an early arquebus, a sword spear axe, or an ancient bow and crossbow, can not effectively fight against plate armor.

With the rapid development of firearms, plate armor finally declined, but in many cases, plate armor was still active on the battlefield, and the last cavalry with cuirass was active until the beginning of the twentieth century, and finally withdrew from the stage of history.

And the plate armor at the beginning, it is also from simple to complex, and in the end, from complex to simple, and with the guidance of the great and wise traverser emperor Zhu Qizhen, the Ming Dynasty does not need to take such a detour, but directly develops the cuirass and helmets, as for other places, you can use chain mail to make up for it, and in winter, you can use cotton armor inside, anyway, this kind of cuirass is extremely convenient to wear, and there is no discomfort.

What's more, Zhu Qizhen is now developing and developing new firearms on a large scale, and he knows very well that in the future, the role that these armors can play will be lower and lower, so he will not bother to get a tin can for his soldiers to wear, in that case, he will not even be able to catch up with a local dog, let alone go into battle to kill the enemy. If you run into a clever opponent, you won't even get a chance to eat dust behind the enemy's butt.

For Zhu Qizhen, who is full of expansionism, righteousness, and imperialism, higher, faster, and stronger is the military concept he pursues, and as for the concept of safety first and second that hurts in the second, it is still left to other magic lamp-level characters to go crookedly.

Along the way, Wang Wen listened to the guard's nonsense, and he was not lonely along the way, and after a lot of effort, he finally came to the Chongzhi Palace. Wang Wen took a deep breath, straightened his clothes, and then walked into the Chongzhi Hall with the guard with a knife, and bowed respectfully to Zhu Qizhen, who was sitting on the couch and writing the paper: "Weichen Wang Wen, see Your Majesty." ”

"Wang Qing is flat, come here, sit down, I have been waiting for Qing for a long time, hehe......" Zhu Qizhen saw Wang Wen, put down the pen in his hand, moved his wrist, and asked about the current situation in Wang Wen's mansion with great concern.

Wang Wen was extraordinarily moved by Zhu Qizhen's intimate care, and his tone revealed this choked up, after all, Wang Wen, who asked himself to die, never thought that he would be able to escape the disaster of blood and light, not to mention, he was still able to retain his official position, although he would be demoted to Nanjing for retirement, but after all, he was a dignified second-class member, in any case, such an ending has far exceeded Wang Wen's own expectations.

-------------------- "Wang Qing, do you have any complaints in your heart about me putting you in Nanjing?" It didn't take much effort, and Zhu Qizhen didn't bother to go around the bend, so he went straight to the topic.

"Weichen doesn't dare, Your Majesty's every move has a deep meaning, not to mention that whether it is Jingshi or Nanzhili, they can all serve the country." Wang Wen shook his head, his tone seemed quite relaxed, no matter what, he went to Nanzhili by himself, which can be regarded as a useful place.

Zhu Qizhen looked at Wang Wen in front of him, and after a little silence, he made a final decision: "Hehe, it's good that Wang Qing can think like this, in fact, I let you go south to Zhili, and there is indeed an important committee and Wang Qing ......"

"Oh, I don't know what I want Weichen to do in Nanzhili? Please also ask Your Majesty to make it clear. Wang Wen's heart jumped, and he quickly lowered his head and replied respectfully.

"Do you remember, what position did I let you go to Nanzhili?" Zhu Qizhen sold Guan Zi at this time, and asked with a smile. "What is the duty of the secretary?"

"Your Majesty appointed the minister to the position of the Imperial History of the Left Capital of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate. The Metropolitan Procuratorate corrected the hundred divisions, identified the wrongs, and supervised the various provinces, which was the division of discipline for the ears and eyes of the Son of Heaven.

All ministers annihilate evil spirits, villains form parties, and those who rebel against politics will be impeached. Anyone who is obscene and corrupt in official discipline shall be impeached. Those who are not academically correct, and who write and say that they become chaotic and become constitutional, and those who hope to use them will be impeached. In the event of a period of pilgrimage, investigation, and the deposition of the same officials and the Ministry of Justice. The heavy prisoners of the big prison will be in the outer court, and the criminal department and Dali will be peaceful. They serve the hinterland, follow the outside world, and act in their own way......"

For the old business he had been doing before he became a secretary and cabinet member, Wang Wen was still familiar with the responsibilities of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. opened his mouth and explained to Zhu Qizhen the rights and responsibilities of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Whether officials violate the law and discipline, he has to manage, township test, meeting test and martial arts such considerations, as well as inspect the world's warehouses, including the inner library, the imperial city, and the five cities, there are also the imperial history of the Imperial Procuratorate There are wide eyes, and the famous Dengwen drum of the imperial complaint is also guarded by the imperial history of the Imperial Procuratorate.

In addition, inspect the country's schools, tea horses (Shaanxi), patrol Cao, patrol customs, Yuyun, India and horses, and Tuntian. Within the army, they supervise military discipline and performance, and each supervises its own affairs.

The patrol is on behalf of the Son of Heaven to patrol the Quartet, according to the vassal minister's fuzhou and county officials to investigate, impeach, major matters, and small matters. According to the arrival, the prisoner must first be interrogated, the case file must be swiped, and those who enter and leave for reasons must be justified.

It can be said that the power of the Ming Dynasty's Imperial Court far exceeded that of various dynasties, and it was completely able to compete with the officials, or even surpass it.

Not to mention that Wang Wen was spitting and explaining the functions of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, even Zhu Qizhen, who had already checked the powers and responsibilities of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, still felt a deep sense of glory for this powerful department at this moment.

Yes, if the Metropolitan Procuratorate can carry out their duties meticulously and completely, then the Ming officials really don't know how clear it will be, but unfortunately, no matter how good the system is, there are no personnel to strictly enforce it, it is just a bunch of good-looking flower shelves, which are useless.
