After watching the assessment, let's take a look at their training.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, except for the Beijing camp, they were all guards.

After the middle of the Ming Dynasty, there will be regimental camps, and the regimental camps have a fixed drill time, from February to May every year, and from August to November is the collective drill period, and the rest of the time, every ten days, only need to report for a while.

Looking at the assessment of one out of ten and the training of reporting for one meeting in ten days, it is not difficult for everyone to understand why after the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming army will hold up the wall like mud.

It is still the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, and the guards still have to hoard fields, so the basic training also depends on the local governors.

When the training is good, the emphasis is on training, and when it is not busy, it may be a big training in five days and a small training in three days, and the small training is basically a collective report, and the big training is a battalion and a battalion gathering for operation, as filmed on television.

Ha, ha, ha, everyone shout a few times, stab a few shots, and then it's over, if you are willing to practice by yourself, you can stay and practice.

Therefore, the training of the Ming army is very unreliable, but fortunately, they are still in the early Ming Dynasty and have been fighting.

Don't think that now during the Jianwen Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty has been founded for more than 30 years, but the whole country has not stopped, there are wars everywhere, and there is still peace of mind in the country, so although there is not much training, the combat effectiveness is still there.

Of course, in overall comparison, the army of the founding of the Ming Dynasty is estimated to be the worst in all dynasties. It's just that Lao Zhu was lucky and met the worse Yuan Wei and the other rebels.

Taking these factors into account, Zhu Gaochu decided that from now on, according to wartime standards, all people will live in the camp and train every day, and the fields of the former tenants' families will be uniformly sent by each village to help, and Zhu Gaochu will pay the wages of the head of each village, which will be calculated at 20 wen per person per day.

This salary is not low now, after all, they are all Zhu Gaoxu's tenants, to put it mildly, Zhu Gaochu does not give anything, and they can be transferred at will.

But in order to stabilize the mentality of the newly recruited tenant soldiers, and at the same time let the villages do their best to help, Zhu Gaoxu still planned to solve the problem with money.

It didn't take long for Chen Wen to discover that Zhu Gaoxu likes to use money to solve problems, as long as he can solve it with money, he will never use power.

Early in the morning of May 22, it was just a little light.

With a dull sound of horns, the people in the military camp of Xujia Village left the camp one after another.

Zhu Gaoxu stood outside the camp with his bare arms, and he had been eating and living in the barracks for the past few days, often going around, trying his best to mingle with middle- and lower-level officers.

Seeing Zhu Gaoxu out of the camp, several hundred households, as well as some general flags, came to him one after another.

"Your Highness."

"Your Highness, morning."

Everyone greeted each other.

Not far away, the small flag and part of the general flag are forming a team, and the scene looks a little chaotic.

Zhu Gaoxu frowned, this kind of gathering speed was not as good as even the primary and secondary school students in his previous life.

But he doesn't have time for queue training right now, and it's not suitable for this time.

"Ignore them, let's run first." After Zhu Gaoxu finished speaking, he took the lead in running.

Wang Bin, Wei Da, Sheng Jian, Chen Wen, Zhou Hu, Song Meng and others hurriedly followed, and then a batch of general flags also followed.

The soldiers were all looking at it.

Seeing the king of Gaoyang County taking the lead in running, everyone's expressions were rich.

"Special mother, hurry up, Your Highness is running." There was a general flag who scolded angrily.

"Quick, quick, quick." More people are urging.

Soon, five hundred soldiers and horses slowly formed a team, followed Zhu Gaoxu and them, and also ran.

After running around the barracks for about a while, Zhu Gaoxu estimated that it was about a thousand meters, and then ran to the middle of the playground.

Then everyone started doing push-ups after him.

At this point, the scene is a bit ugly, because too many people are not doing it standardly.

Zhu Gaoxu had no choice, and pointed to Chen Wen, Wang Bin and other hundred households: "You go to the opposite side of this king." ”

Let them watch themselves do it, and then signal them to go to see the general flag, the small flag, and finally let the general flag and the small flag look at the soldiers, and they must be qualified.

The day was a demonstration, an approximate process.

According to Zhu Gaoxu's training plan, he ran 1,000 meters in the morning and 1,000 meters in the evening, because he had heard that there was night blindness in ancient times, and it seemed that he had to eat more fish and animal offal, so he ordered to add these to the food as much as possible.

After running, do push-ups, squat and stand up, improve endurance and strength.

If it weren't for the big war coming, he would have raised the 1,000 meters to 3,000 meters, but he definitely couldn't do that now, he could only practice a little and let everyone warm up.

There will be about half an hour in the morning and half an hour in the evening every day for physical training, and then there will be normal training.

Horseback riding, archery, stabbing guns.

Zhu Gaoxu demanded that everyone should practice until they can ride and shoot on horseback.

i.e. all people can ride horses and shoot arrows.

He has 300 veterans, plus dozens of people in the village, there is no problem with these more than 300 people, they can originally ride and shoot, they are newly recruited soldiers, and they need to practice more.

Zhu Gaoxu's training time was extremely full, and he left the camp at the beginning of the morning, running and physical training for half an hour.

Then it is a breakfast made by local tenants, big white steamed buns, rice porridge, pickles, and one big meat steamed bun for three days.

In the morning, if you have a horse, you will practice archery on horseback, and you will be rewarded at the end of the month.

If you reach the test three times out of ten, you can take the initiative to apply for promotion assessment.

In the morning, the horseless lance practice and the tactic of stabbing in line are very good against cavalry.

In the afternoon, everyone practiced archery together, within 50 steps of 6 out of 10, there was a reward at the end of the month, 10 out of 10, and three times out of five assessments reached the standard, and they could take the initiative to apply for promotion assessment.

After the evening physical training, I will be active at the side of the camp for half an hour, which is suitable for the night.

The noon dish must have internal organs, and fish is eaten once every three days.

But these are easy to say, but very difficult to do, Zhu Gaoxujue's strength is not high, but compared to the current Daming, it is relatively high, some people feel that this is simply practicing to death.

Therefore, within a day or two, Chen Wen and the others put forward their opinions, and Zhu Gaoxu was also willing to accept the opinions, so he practiced for three days and rested for one day.

Secondly, Zhu Gaoxu paid great attention to mounted archery and foot archery, but archery every day hurt bows and arrows, and there were not so many bows in his camp.

Finally, I want to say that this kind of military training is very expensive and food-consuming.

After only practicing for a few days, Hou Hai and Qian Xun found Zhu Gaoxu together.

Qian Xun handed Zhu Gaoxu a bunch of account books, which were all the assets of Zhu Gaoxu's royal mansion according to his recent statistics.

Hou Hai gave Zhu Gaoxu the latest consumption.

In the twenty-eighth year of Hongwu (1395), Zhu Gaoxu was named the king of the county, could open a mansion, and had his own fixed income.

The time of his canonization is actually quite coincidental, because Lao Zhu's treatment to the county king at the beginning of Hongwu was 6,000 stone per year, and in the twenty-eighth year of Hongwu, it may be considered that there will be too many descendants of the county king in the future, and it will be reduced to 3,000 stone.

When Zhu Gaoxu was sealed, he didn't use the new rules and enjoyed the original 6,000 stones.

In addition, there are 2,800 banknotes, 10 brocades, 50 Shu silk, half of yarn and Luo minus heald silk, 100 pieces of silk and winter and summer cloth, 500 taels of cotton, 500 taels of salt, 300 catties of tea, and 10 horses of grass and grass.

The last thing I mean is to provide fodder for ten horses every month.

All of Zhu Gaoxu's fields were also obtained from the king of the county.

In other words, twenty-eight years ago in Hongwu, he basically had no income, and he relied on King Yan to give it.

Until now, in the first year of Jianwen (1399), he only had four years of income, and then Jing Nan fought for three years, and there was no income.

But I don't know if I don't see it, and I was shocked when I saw it, Zhu Gaoxu didn't expect that he was quite rich.

As his financial manager, Hou Hai's income and expenditure in the past few years are clearly recorded.

It's just that Zhu Gaoxu was diligent in military training in the past, and he went out on expeditions all year round, so he never asked about this kind of thing.

And because Zhu Gaoxu is away all the year round, he doesn't squander much, and the consumption in the house is quite small.

"The prince has 360 acres of land, and the annual rent is about 24,000 stones, plus 6,000 stones from the imperial court, and the palace warehouse now has a total of 108,000 stones."

"Another 54,000 banknotes, 267,000 taels of silver, 520 catties of tea, and 62 taels of brocade---"

Zhu Gaoxu's silver and banknotes were basically obtained by selling salt.

He didn't do business himself, he didn't have a shop, unlike some clans, he still did business.

But he was the king of the county for four years, and he only relied on salt and the court to save more than 200,000 taels of silver, which shows the abundance of salt profits.

At first glance, he looks rich, but recently his spending has suddenly increased.

On Mao Xiong's side, he took 50,000 yuan in banknotes and 200,000 silver to hoard salt, grain, and sugar.

So now he had only four thousand pieces of money left, and more than sixty-seven thousand taels of silver.

Recently, he recruited soldiers, trained soldiers, and raised horses, and he invited a few women among the tenants to cook, and the daily food consumption amounted to 140 yuan (about 40 taels or less).

Originally, the treasure money was equal to one tael, but the people still agreed more with silver and copper coins, and when they really went shopping, the purchasing power was only about a quarter, and the depreciation was very serious.

Such a month will cost more than 3,000 yuan, and the expenditure is very large.

It's only 500 soldiers and horses that cost so much, and you have to work hard to make money, when Zhu Gaoxu was thoughtful, Wang Bin and other generals suggested to him, will they eat too well, everyone didn't eat so well before.

Zhu Gaoxu said, this king trains in the camp every day, eats with the soldiers, and often goes around the camp, why?

If the food is lowered and the training is so hard, won't this king go anywhere and be scolded by everyone?

Everyone nodded, of course they knew what the prince was for.
