Queen Ma was very happy when she heard that the things in this book could help Zhu Yuanzhang, so she reminded: "In this way, Yifan and Jing Jing are still a little useful, and they can share your worries!" Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, and immediately smiled and said: "Jing Jing also said at the beginning that she wants the person who can help me the most in the world to become her husband!" Hearing this, Queen Ma couldn't help but laugh too.

No one cared about this at the beginning. Now, it's still a bit exaggerated, but it's a little bit of a look!

Maybe he had a good idea, Zhu Yuanzhang became sleepy after being excited, and this workaholic finally went to sleep.

……………… In the next few days, the combination of Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and Zhang Yifan, the commander of the horses, wanted to compete with Lan Yu, the governor of the Dadu Governor's Mansion, to lead the troops to fight the Japanese Kou, and the matter spread in the court and the army.

This time, everyone's opinion is about the same. Just two hairy boys, can they win against a veteran who has been in battle for a long time?

Of course, some people think that the son of the founding emperor must be good at war. What about the battlefield veteran, if you make an accidental mistake, you will be won.

However, someone immediately introduced the situation of Lanyu, which was a general who was often praised even by the most powerful general of the Ming Dynasty, Kaiping King Chang Yuchun!

So, some people think that with the respect of the vassal king and the horse, it is impossible for Lan Yu not to give face, right? Soon, the people who knew the situation introduced the matter of Lan Yu again.

This blue jade is none other than the prince's uncle, and he is also a relative of the emperor. If he wanted to give face to the vassal king and the concubine, he would not have been in the book.

And I heard that this blue jade is not only powerful, but also has a tough personality. Just when the competition was set in front of the emperor, it was said in front of the emperor that if it was a competition, he would definitely go all out.

…… In the end, a consensus was formed inside and outside the capital, inside and outside the army, and inside and outside the court.

"How confident are these horses and Yan Wang, and they will challenge that battlefield veteran?"

"It's really true, young people who have never fought a war think that it is easy to fight, this is not self-sufficient!"

"But no, many people only talk on paper, thinking that they are sorry, and when they look back and get beaten, they know that fighting is not child's play!"

"Young man, you should teach a lesson, so as not to be overwhelmed, and if you really want to go to the battlefield in the future, you will suffer a big loss."

"If you want me to say, that General Lan is right, he should teach these young people a lesson, lest they don't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, and there is a Zhao Kuo of the Ming Dynasty!"

"...... "In short, in this matter, no one is optimistic about the combination of King Yan and the horse. even felt that these two hairy boys should not be taught a lesson.

Even when the news reached Xu Da, who was guarding the north, it was the same, and he felt that his son-in-law was too self-conscious, and it was good to suffer a little setback.

On the Jingshi side, after a few days, this matter was forgotten. After all, as a competition whose results are already doomed, there is no need to worry about it at all.

……………… About five days later, on the official road in the outskirts of Nanjing, a group of sergeants suddenly came to the enemy.

To be precise, there was a row of sergeants in the front, a row of sergeants in the back, and two large special carriages in the middle.

These two rows of sergeants were far away from the two wagons, at least four or five feet away. The sergeant in front of it drove anyone on the official road.

Including ordinary passers-by, Taoist priests, monks or wealthy households, as well as people in the government. Some people were not convinced, but as soon as the sergeant who lined up on the road said it, he immediately put aside all objections and left the official road one after another, and even avoided it far away.

Then he stood in the distance, pointing at the two specially made carriages. Everyone's face has a look of fear and incomprehension.

This team stopped at a place five miles outside Nanjing, where it deviated from the official road, and then a large group of soldiers came, surrounded all these people, and imposed martial law on a large area.

At this time, Zhang Yifan was still left in the barracks by Zhu Di, taking him and the 500 soldiers to eat, drink and train together.

However, Zhu Di still takes better care of his brother-in-law, Zhu Di trains with the five hundred sergeants, but he doesn't ask Zhang Yifan to do the same, it will be a lot easier.

With the movement outside the city, the East Palace sent people to the barracks and finally fished out Zhang Yifan.

Zhang Yifan heard the situation, and immediately said happily: "It's finally here, okay, I have to go to see my father." In this military camp, Zhang Yifan experienced it once, which was far more difficult than the military training he had in college in later life.

It's no problem to get up early, after all, it was common to get up early in the school days, and then you have to train physically, wear armor, carry weapons or something, and walk five kilometers quickly in full gear.

If these are all new recruits, then everyone has about the same physical strength, and it is nothing. But the key problem is that these five hundred sergeants are all selected from the guards of the Son of Heaven, and their physical strength is absolutely first-class.

This level of training is easy for them. On this point, Zhang Yifan has to admire Zhu Di.

Originally, according to the battlefield simulation, Zhu Di could ride a horse, but he did not ride a horse, but walked with the five hundred sergeants.

Zhang Yifan can see that Zhu Di is really gritting his teeth and insisting. This perseverance, to be honest, he thinks it is difficult to do.

Unless the tiger was chasing after him, he wouldn't be able to hold on to even half of it, or he would definitely have to stop and go.

There is also the training of weapons, the training of queues, and often a single action is repeated countless times. Boring, isn't it?

Absolutely boring! However, Zhu Di was able to work with the five hundred sergeants, sweating like rain without a trace of complaint, lazy.

Zhang Yifan even persuaded him, saying that he was a general and led the troops to fight, and there was no need to do these trainings in person.

As a result, Zhu Di said to him solemnly: "If I don't experience it myself, how can I know what the soldiers can do and how much it will cost?" My father once said that on the battlefield, a small misjudgment can lead to defeat, how can you be sloppy? As soon as he heard this, Zhang Yifan immediately remembered that the captain of the transportation brigade in later generations had a famous saying, saying that there are millions of people, and the advantage is mine!

If that transport captain could be as serious as Zhu Di, go down to the front line, and understand the true combat power of his million-strong army, it is estimated that he would not be able to say such a thing.

So, Zhang Yifan admired it in his heart, but he no longer persuaded Zhu Di. In these days in the barracks, in addition to talking to Zhu Di about the mandarin duck formation, his personal training is mainly to practice his equestrian skills.

It can be said that after these days of training, his equestrian skills have improved by leaps and bounds, and it is no longer difficult to rush the horse.

Thinking of this, he rushed to the Forbidden City, entered the palace, and rushed to the Wuying Palace. Along the way, he found that many officials were rushing over there, and when they saw him, they avoided him one after another, and looked at Zhang Yifan's eyes from a distance, all of which were very incomprehensible.

Zhang Yifan naturally didn't care about them, and went directly to Wuying Palace. He found that there were already many high-ranking officials of the Ming Dynasty here.

Although Wuying Hall is not the largest palace, it is definitely not small. But at a glance, Zhang Yifan already had a feeling of being crowded.

Seeing him enter the hall, Zhang Yifan had a feeling that he didn't know if it was an illusion, these officials, regardless of civil and military, seemed to be trying to avoid him.

With so many officials gathered, it was clear that smallpox was a matter of great importance. After Zhu Yuanzhang finished saluting Zhang Yifan, he said to him with a serious face: "The prince said that you can be sure that the smallpox on the cow can cure people's smallpox, but is there such a thing?" "In the Wuying Palace, although there are many people, at this moment, it is very quiet.

Zhang Yifan listened, glanced at Zhu Biao, and immediately replied: "Father, it's not that smallpox on a cow can cure smallpox on a person, but that a person is infected with smallpox on a cow, and the symptoms will be very mild, basically there is no worry about life, and from now on, there will be no smallpox." Hearing this, Taishi Li Shanchang asked solemnly: "The smallpox plague is not a child's play, do you dare to guarantee it?" As soon as he heard this, Prime Minister Hu Weiyong immediately followed and said: "Yes, this matter is far more serious than the trial, it is not trivial, it is not a child's play!" "It may be because he and Zhu Di are going to compete with Lan Yu, which makes most people in Wuying Hall think that he is less or worse, does not know the importance of things, and does not know the height of the sky.

If it's just that competition, many of them have the mentality of watching a play, and even want to have fun.

But now it's the smallpox plague, which is contagious, and if one person gets sick, many people in the house may get it.

And those who were infected with the smallpox plague, even if they did not die, were likely to have scars. This kind of thing, even if there are many generals in the Wuying Hall who fight on the battlefield and will not frown, they are all afraid.

Therefore, after the prime minister and the Taishi asked, others also followed along, asking Zhang Yifan not to play with children's play.

When Zhang Yifan heard this, he immediately raised his voice and said loudly to Zhu Yuanzhang: "Father, this matter is by no means child's play, and the sons are willing to demonstrate in person to prove that what they said is true." In this way, everyone in the Ming Dynasty will no longer have to suffer from smallpox! Hearing this, the people who questioned Zhang Yifan just now stopped talking.

Zhang Yifan is willing to try it himself, so what else do they have to say! Zhu Yuanzhang's expression was serious, and he immediately said: "In this way, according to the prince's performance, try it with the death row prisoners in the prison first." You must be careful, if it is as you say, it will be a great achievement, and I will grant your descendants a hereditary title! "The captain of the horse will definitely not be hereditary, but Zhu Yuanzhang can reward other titles, such as hereditary commanders and the like.

Among the relatives of the Zhu family, there are such ones. The reward of a hereditary title is a very big reward.

However, this reward is not too much compared to the elimination of the smallpox plague. No, the civil and military officials in the Wuying Hall have no objections.

However, they have no opinion, but Zhang Yifan himself has an opinion. The reason is very simple, he doesn't like hereditary, and in his original plan, he also wanted to find an opportunity to talk to Lao Zhu about the hereditary vassal king's drag down of the Ming Dynasty.
