King Ding nodded.

Chongzhen knew that he was off topic, but the more he talked, the more excited he became, and he was unwilling to stop, and continued: "When Yingzong arrived, in order to oppose Emperor Yingzong's going to sea, the officials actually burned the navigation charts and giant ship drawings of the Western Ocean seven times. The possibility of going to sea was completely cut off. ”

King Ding was furious when he heard this.

"Coupled with the rampant Japanese bandits, the imperial court had no choice but to ban the sea again.

In the following hundred years, the court spread falsehoods, and the Ming Dynasty banned the sea since the founding of the country, and went to the West to mislead the country, which became a fact and has been passed down to this day. ”

"Father, since the charts are gone, what can we do?"

"The imperial court can't afford to go to sea for the time being, but there are people in Fujian who can! Moreover, with their own fleet, they can get millions of taels of wealth a year. Chongzhen said lightly.

"Father is talking about Zheng Zhilong?" King Ding asked.

Looking at the intelligent King Ding, Chongzhen could already imagine the glorious prosperity on the other side of the Cangming Sect (Pacific Ocean) decades later.

"We'll talk about that later. I have told you so much to tell you that you should not regard the prince as an enemy, you must assist him well, and when the time is right, I will send you to the sea to rebuild mountains and rivers! Chongzhen said solemnly.

King Ding took two steps back, kowtowed solemnly, and said loudly, "Erchen understands!" ”

King Ding retreated, Chongzhen sat in front of the dragon case, silently looked at the map of all countries, raised his pen, and began to draw a more accurate map of the world according to his memory.

Outside the hall, King Ding walked away, excited.

Chongzhen opened a door for him, and King Ding imagined the future, as if a grand new country was already thriving on the other side.

After a while, King Ding stopped, he pondered for a long time, and said in his heart:

"After all, my father is angry. Lone not only wants to open up the world, but also to sit in the Ming Dynasty, with the orthodox identity of the Ming Dynasty, command thousands of troops to expand the territory, and create a prosperous era that shakes the past and the present! ”

It's hard to manage children when they're older, especially when they're fifteen or sixteen teenagers.

Chongzhen thought that he had opened Zhu Cijiong's heart knot, and he had a matter on his mind, and he was happily drawing a map.

I don't want to decide that the king is ready to take his brother's rightful throne.

Chongzhen painted a good picture, felt that there were flaws everywhere, and was very dissatisfied, so he had to mark them one by one with a pen, and then painted another one.

It wasn't until the evening that he painted several paintings repeatedly that he had a satisfactory finished product.

He lifted the map and blew it, summoned Liu Guifang, ordered him to find someone to copy it for future use, and ordered Tian Shouxin to prepare and go to the school outside Beijing early tomorrow morning.

On the second day, it was a sunny day, and Chongzhen left the palace after breakfast and went to the school.

It is the height of summer, the sun is shining, and the temperature in the school field is particularly high, but the soldiers are shouting and cheering, and they are all practicing according to the formation method.

Chongzhen walked away and looked around. Over the course of a month, the school has become larger and the facilities are more complete.

The school grounds were fenced, and every short distance, there were large slogans written on them:

"Sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime."

"Closely follow the actual combat and highlight the confrontation."

"If you don't practice martial arts, you have to endure hardships sooner or later, and if you don't practice martial arts, you won't be considered a qualified soldier."

"Weapons listen to us, we listen to the emperor!"

Chongzhen rode the horse, looking at the slogan sentence by sentence, feeling very kind, and not long to the newly built playground.

At this time, there were 3,000 infantry training for long-distance running, looking at the neat pace of the soldiers, even breathing, and nodding uncontrollably.

Suddenly, the soldiers shouted: "One, two, three, four, discipline is a piece of iron, whoever touches it will bleed, one, two, three, four, one, two, three, four!" ”

Chongzhen smiled, what a familiar slogan, this is too kind!

Further on, Chongzhen saw the horses' hooves rolling, and several teams of cavalry galloping in the wilderness.

The cavalrymen wore all the same leather armor, a layer of chain mail on their chests, red tasseled helmets, and steel swords hanging from their waists, which were extremely powerful.

One of the cavalrymen, wielding maces and shouting the slogan of the charge, rushed to the imaginary enemy position, and swung it repeatedly, knocking the stakes into the air and breaking the bags of sandbags.

The mace is simple and efficient to make, and the blacksmith only needs to add sharp objects such as nails and iron sticks to the upper end of the stick, and it can be completed in a quarter of an hour.

And it's simple to use, unlike a sword, only the side of the blade can hurt the enemy, and it's not like a spear or a silver spear in general, the attack method is relatively simple, the mace can be waved at will, and it will cause damage as long as it touches the enemy.

Especially at Zhu Youjian's suggestion, these nails have been soaked in gold juice and simply polished to retain the bacteria-laden rust and ensure the sharpness of the tip.

Even if only a small flesh wound is inflicted, it can be fatal due to the subsequent inflammation of the wound.

Therefore, now the cavalry of the Ming army has given up the high-end appearance of the silver spear, and each person has a mace, I believe that in the near future, the cavalry in the north will never forget.

Another group of cavalry galloped with rifles, which was the only rifle cavalry team in the Ming Dynasty.

There were only 600 people, and they were divided into three columns of 200 people, and galloped side by side.

"Tick ......"

In the middle of the Mercedes-Benz, the whistle sounded, and the general gave the order.

The galloping cavalry threw the reins away, their legs clasped tightly on the horse's belly, and their rifles in both hands were aimed at the target 100 paces away.

"Tick ......"

I put the total chasing whistle and give the order to shoot.

The 200 people in the front row quickly pulled the trigger, and one bullet after another shot out at a speed that the naked eye could not react to, knocking out the wooden targets 100 paces away with holes.

The first platoon of soldiers finished shooting and quickly leaned down, slowing down their horses to make room.

Before the first row of cavalry had all retreated, the second row of soldiers had already pulled the trigger, and the bullet flew over the heads of the front row of cavalry, hitting the target again.

Subsequently, the cavalry of the third platoon fired in the same way.

By this time, the first platoon of non-commissioned cavalry, having completed the maneuvering of regaining the speed of their horses and pulling the bolts, rushed forward again and began the second round of firing.

It took less than 2 minutes for the three teams to complete the shooting of 600 people, which is the fastest speed in the world for hundreds of years.

"Zhou Yingluo, how, can my 600-man rifle cavalry be worth 5,000 Mongolian horses!"

Chongzhen inspected the school field and habitually brought Zhou Yingluo, at this time, Zhou Yingluo was dressed in a strong suit and stood beside Chongzhen.

"Back to the emperor, the people felt that at this rate of shooting, after two rounds, the Mongolian cavalry would lose their fighting spirit and would have to retreat immediately."

"yes. The Mongols were brave, but that was when they were in pursuit. If a team loses 20 percent, they can run faster than a rabbit.

If you lose three or four adult horses. It is estimated that he will have to dismount and surrender. ”

Zhou Yingluo was very happy to see Chongzhen, and took the opportunity to say: "Your Majesty, the people's women's bow and horses are okay, and there are many Mulan-like strange women in the Ming Dynasty, can you let the people's girls lead and train a women's army?" ”
