Gou in Daming, I was overheard by Zhu Yuanzhang

"Yunxi, the imperial court spent a lot of money to raise troops. Therefore, there is King Sai, and there is a farm."

"If there is a war in the border areas, troops will be dispatched and supplied locally."

"Don't worry, you're not going alone, and the old fourteen will have to listen to you."

Zhu Yuanzhang patiently explained to Zhu Yunxi why he didn't need to send troops from Yingtian or the Central Plains, but the soldiers of King Su.

"No way, King Su, can you listen to me?"

"Let's go with Lan Yu, King Su won't treat us as dishes."

"So, you have to have your own soldiers."

"My own soldiers, Ji Laosan's wolf soldiers, these 1000 people are my own."

"But these thousand wolf soldiers cannot move. Their main task is to defend against the invasion of the bandits."

"What's more, the wolf soldiers are used to staying in the south, and they must be uncomfortable in the northwest border."

"There are still a few days of preparation time. I need to urge Tao Chengdao to step up research on weapons."

"I have to buy more food and put it in the designated place."

"At that time, it will be good if King Su can provide soldiers and horses. For food and grass, don't think that he will open up the supply."

"With weapons and sufficient food supplies, at least we can guarantee that Jiayuguan will not be lost."

"Let's take a step, let's take a look."

"Old Zhu said King Su has to listen to me, there is no such thing as comforting people."

Zhu Yuanzhang thought to himself, where can we comfort you?
If we announce that you are the crown prince, King Su will of course listen to you!

However, what does Sansun mean when he said to buy more grain and put it in the designated place?
Did he have to bring all these grains with him when he set off?
Wouldn't it take a lot of people to bring food?

These people need to eat, how to solve it?

Research weapons, what kind of weapons did Sansun research?
Although you have doubts, you can't ask him right away.

We can't expose it either.

……

The next day, Zhu Yuanzhang announced a big news in the court hall: Wu Wang Zhu Yunxi will bring the founding father Chang Sheng, Jingwei Commander Si Zhen Fusi Zhen Fu Lanshou, Chinese Army Governor's Mansion Experience Chang Sen, Jining Wei Commander He left for Jiayuguan safely.

There was a lot of discussion.

For Zhu Yunxi to go to Jiayuguan, it really is a blessing in disguise!

His Majesty once said that the Lan family should follow Zhu Yunxi.

Everyone thought it was Sapphire, and once Sapphire got out, the situation would be much better.

Even if the old, weak, sick and disabled were given to Lan Yu by King Su, Lan Yu has the ability to turn them into a strong team.

Unexpectedly, the Lan family His Majesty mentioned did not refer to Lan Yu, but Lan Yu's son Lan Shou.

Lan Shou is just the small town of Fusi, the commander of the Jingwei Commander, Fusi, from the fifth rank.

Lan Shou had never fought a war at all!
Everyone suddenly felt, Your Majesty, this is trying to trick Zhu Yunxi.

But His Majesty is usually very close to Zhu Yunxi, why is he treating Zhu Yunxi like this now?
Can't figure it out.

There is also the founding father Chang Sheng, not to mention his father Chang Yuchun, even his eldest brother Chang Mao.

Chang Mao often fights in the north, and he is a rare warrior who has Zhu Yuanzhang's common sense.

However, when Chang Mao followed his father-in-law Feng Sheng in the Northern Expedition, he slashed and wounded Nahachu, the surrendered general, causing most of Nahachu's men to flee. He was eventually deposed from the title and demoted to Longzhou, Guangxi by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Because of Chang Yuchun, Zhu Yuanzhang took good care of the Chang family.

After Chang Mao was removed from the title, Chang Yuchun's second son, Chang Sheng, inherited the title and changed it to the Duke of Founding.

Chang Sheng has been ordered to go out to train soldiers several times, but it is only training and has never been on the battlefield.

Chang Sheng's younger brother, Chang Sen, served as the military governor's mansion, starting from the fifth rank, the same level as Lan Shou.

Chang Sen has no battlefield experience.

But the last person has aroused everyone's speculation. It is somewhat inexplicable that His Majesty sent such a person.

The commander of Jining Wei is safe and sound. Although this person is only a fourth-rank official, his identity is different.

Ping An is one of Zhu Yuanzhang's many adoptive sons.

Ping'an is a native of Chuzhou, Anhui, with a small character of Bao'er, and his biological father is Jining Wei Commander Qian Pingding.

In the early years, Ping An and his father followed Zhu Yuanzhang's army out of the fortress to fight.

Ping Ding later died in battle while attacking the capital of the Yuan Dynasty with General Chang Yuchun, and Ping Ding succeeded the post of Commander of the Jining Guard in Ping Ding.

After Sapphire learned of this arrangement, she was a little confused.

After Chang Sheng heard it, he was overjoyed.

Although I, Lan Shou and Chang Sen have little experience, they are better than being young!

And Ping An, although young, has been on the battlefield since he was a child!

His experience is similar to that of Mu Ying, who fought in all directions since childhood.

Although he didn't have an outstanding record, it was because he fought with others.

His Majesty has sent all his adopted sons out!

Obviously, His Majesty is cultivating his own power for King Wu.

Veterans such as Lan Yu, Feng Sheng, and Geng Bingwen have rich experience and strong command ability, but they will grow old one day.

Your Majesty asked these young people to follow King Wu to guard Jiayuguan. This is training talents for King Wu!
Look, except for Ping An, the other four are all relatives of King Wu!

Qi Tai, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, was secretly delighted, and met the eyes of Zhu Yunqi who turned his head.

Your Majesty has arranged these people to be Zhu Yunxi's helpers!
Look at Lan and Chang, they have never been on the battlefield!
Look at Ping An, and there is no record that can be achieved.

Although he is His Majesty's adopted son, but His Majesty has many adopted sons!
The reason why Ping An was sent there was probably because he was afraid that Zhu Yunxi would lose too badly.

There is a smile between Zhu Yunwen's brows, it's all over now!
With these people as Zhu Yunxi's helpers, it would be great if they don't help!
It would be great if we could defend Jiayuguan.

Want to capture Hami King Wuna Shili alive?It was a dream.

The reason why he sent Ping An was that Zhu Yuanzhang really didn't expect him to do anything.

At that time, the main reason why Ping An was regarded as a adopted son was because his father Ping Ding died in battle. Of course, Ping An was very brave in combat at a young age, which also made Zhu Yuanzhang appreciate it very much.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew the ability of his third grandson Zhu Yunxi, and he definitely had a skill in military command, but he never showed it.

Then, arrange these few people to follow him!
Let him have no hope!
Everything depends on him to direct, at this time, the third grandson should show all his strength!

As long as he showed his military command ability, other aspects will gradually show.

After everyone's discussion subsided, Zhu Yuanzhang said: "I am preparing to go west. During this period, the second emperor, Sun Yunwen, supervises the country."

Ah, Your Majesty is going west?
The second emperor's grandson, Zhu Yunwen, supervises the country!

What are you doing westbound?Could it be the same as the last trip to Hangzhou?With Zhu Yunxi?
"I travel westward for two purposes. One is to investigate whether Xi'an can be used as a new capital. The other is that I also want to see the land of the far west."

The ministers were silent.

His Majesty still misses Xi'an as his capital.

Yingtian is His Majesty's place of dragon prosperity.

Famous Confucianist Ye Dui suggested: "Set the capital to build Kang, and expand the land of Jiangguang. If you advance, you will conquer the north of the Huaihe River, and if you retreat, you will draw the Yangtze River and defend yourself. Husband Jinling was called the capital of emperors with dragons and tigers in ancient times. Leverage its military strength and wealth , use attack to overcome, use discipline to strengthen."

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang set about strengthening the city defense of Nanjing.

However, Yingtian's location is relatively safe, close to the south bank of the Yangtze River, lacking strategic depth, which is not conducive to the control of the whole country.

Externally, "it is quite a distance to go to the Central Plains, and it is difficult to control the north", internally, "the people who have the world are not the capitals of the Central Plains, and the traitors cannot be controlled."

The local palace was built by filling the lake, the foundation was unstable and the subsidence was serious.

Zhu Yuanzhang was very dissatisfied with this and planned to find another new capital.

After the news of Xu Da's capture of Kaifeng reached Nanjing, many ministers tended to move the capital to Kaifeng.

Kaifeng is the base of the Red Scarf Army Han Shantong, which has important political symbolic significance.

The Northern Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty were both Han regimes, and Kaifeng as their capital could demonstrate the legitimacy of their governance.

In addition, Kaifeng is located in the Central Plains, with convenient water and land transportation, which is convenient for the dynasty to rule.

Based on these three considerations, Zhu Yuanzhang set up an official office in Kaifeng, appointed officials, mobilized food and grass, and stationed soldiers to prepare for the establishment of the capital.

However, after Zhu Yuanzhang's personal inspection, he found that the surrounding area of ​​Kaifeng was flat and flat, and it was too close to the Yellow River, so there was no danger to defend.

After more than 200 years of devastation, Kaifeng has long lost its style of "the center of the world", and its infrastructure has been severely damaged.

Compared with Yingtian, Kaifeng's economic development level is obviously lagging behind.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed: "It's hard to be a capital."
