I, the grandson of the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty, earned 100 million taels at the beginning

The younger soldier spoke to the crowd who were looking over.

"A while ago, Jinling sold a batch of dogs brought from Ah San, and my father even bought one."

"When this alien dog came home, he quarreled with my dog ​​every day. The two dogs quarreled fiercely."

"Ha ha!"

The veteran sneered contemptuously.

"If you say you don't understand, you are still not convinced."

"Do you know why this is?"

"Why?" The younger soldier scratched his head in confusion.

The veteran looked at him jokingly and pointed.

"You go to a local now, scold his ancestors for eighteen generations with a fierce expression, and then you will know why!"

The officer and other soldiers were stunned for a moment, then they figured out the reason and burst out laughing.

"So it is!"

The younger soldier was also stunned for a long time before he gradually came to his senses, scratching his head and laughing.

In the afternoon, the recruiting team finally found an interpreter, and under the leadership of the interpreter, they enthusiastically invited those Western Regions people who were hiding in the cellar or under the bed to come out to work.

The people in the Western Regions were also very moved when they heard that there was a job, and tears filled their eyes with excitement, and they couldn't walk the way of crying.

The relatives in their family also insisted that they must work well for His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun, and they will definitely visit them every year during the sacrificial ceremony.

The atmosphere is very harmonious, reflecting the deep understanding of the people in the Western Regions to the fish and water conditions of the military and civilians.

In order to get a job opportunity, some even knelt on the ground and begged the Ming army to let him go too.

It's a pity that the Daming officer regretfully rejected him. The reason he gave was that you were too old and your son was more suitable for this job.

From this day on, the entire city of Fala has undergone lively construction.

The city wall was reinforced and raised, and the city gate was rebuilt. A huge pit was dug under the gate, which was filled with all kinds of sharp swords.

The streets are also separated by sandbag masonry, exposing the shooting holes above.

After half a month of busy work by tens of thousands of people, the city improvement work was officially completed.

A middle-aged man from the Western Regions looked at the officer who was paying his salary and asked expectantly.

"Master, you really don't need workers tomorrow!"

The man carried a bag of food on his shoulders, took off his clothes, and wrapped several cans and a lot of candy. From this look, the harvest in the past few days should not be small.

"Uncle Bata, our defense work has been completed, and we don't need workers for the time being, so you won't be using them for work tomorrow."

The soldier who was paying his salary replied with a smile, and then thought for a while before exhorting: "There may be a big war in a few days, you must hide it in the cellar at home, in the area where the sword has no eyes, we will fight the enemy, you If you walk around outside, it is easy to be accidentally injured!"

"These damn nobles can't let us live a good life for two days!"

The man first cursed the nobleman, then thought of something, and said to the soldier expectantly

"By the way, do you need helpers to guard the city? I'm not talking about helping you fight the war, but helping you move things and lift the wounded."

"I don't want too much, just the same as now."

The soldier glanced at the officer next to him, saw him shake his head and refused with a smile: "I don't need it yet, but when we need it, I will notify you as soon as possible!"

"Okay, let's just say that, when this battle is over, remember to come to my house as a guest, I have saved a lot of dried fruit and wine!"

"Okay, Uncle Bata, go back and pay attention to the way when it gets dark!" The soldier smiled and waved his hand, and then continued to pay wages to other workers in line.

"Brother Zhangui, are all Daming's troops so friendly?"

On a small two-story building not far away, Tagilis, who had changed into a pink gauze dress, looked at the harmonious scene below, blinked his beautiful eyes, and asked Zhu Zhangui who was inspecting the defense construction next to him.

Zhu Zhangui was looking around with a telescope, smiling and shaking his head slightly.

"How can there be so many benevolent and righteous teachers in the world? Except for my army in the entire Ming Dynasty, no other army can do this step at all."

Hearing this, Tagilis looked at Zhu Zhangui adoringly, stepped forward involuntarily, and hugged Zhu Zhangui's arm.

"Brother Zhangui, you are so amazing that you have trained such a good army!"

Sensing the Q bomb on his arm, Zhu Zhangui's eyebrows twitched, and he stretched out his hand to hold Tagilis' forehead and pushed him away.

"Just talk, don't hug!"

Tagylis smirked, turned around and returned to the table, took a plate of fruit, and began to feed Zhu Zhangui.

After being tempted by delicious food in the past few days, Hu Yu told her why Zhu Zhangui was so indifferent to him and her.

As a bodyguard, Hu Yu was naturally not a talkative person.

Seeing that Zhu Zhangui had a good impression of this girl, he already planned to accept her.

Coupled with the reason for the cannibalism, he revealed the reason why this is not a secret.

Of course, he also reported it to Zhu Zhangui afterwards, and all he got was a blank stare.

Knowing the reason for Zhu Zhangui's indifference, Tagilis was very happy.

It turned out that it wasn't that I wasn't attractive enough, but that my future mother-in-law had ordered that no sex between men and women should happen until my sweetheart got hurt.

After being rejected several times, she thought it was because she was not attractive enough.

During that time, I even found a dancer in the palace. May I ask how to seduce men.

In the end, I didn't expect that the reason was this, so many ways to seduce men were learned in vain, and she had to work hard for several days in vain.

So from then on, no matter how Zhu Zhangui rejected her, Tagilis didn't care at all. Instead, he thought it was a kind of protection, and it was a flattering feeling in his heart.

"Your Highness!"

At the top of the stairs, Hu Yu came up with a bunch of fruits in his arms.

Zhu Zhangui took a look and shook his head helplessly.

Ever since the locals discovered that the Ming army was really good, the enthusiasm of these people from the Western Regions has been reflected.

As long as there are soldiers of the Ming army or Ming people walking by the street, the local people will be enthusiastic and give each other a lot of fruits or dried fruits.

At the beginning, Hu Yu's people were still a little suspicious. They suspected that these people had ulterior motives in sending fruits. They thought about throwing them away, but they felt it was a pity to see these fresh and tender fruits, so they took them back.

After coming back, every fruit was inspected, and it turned out that there was nothing wrong with it. After a few days, Hu Yu and the others got used to it, but they still didn't let go of their guard.

Even if the unknown fruit is confirmed to be safe, Zhu Zhangui will not eat it.

In the entire city of Fala, only the food sent by the little princess Tagilis can be eaten by Zhu Zhangui after a simple inspection.

Generally, the items given to Zhu Zhangui by strangers are checked and checked.

Be careful and make no big mistakes, don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just in case

If Zhu Zhangui didn't need something special, such as fruit snacks, they would have to share the hard work of these guards.

Hu Yu's guards can swear to the sky.

They ate more fruit these days than they usually see in a year.

"The servants in all the places have personally checked it out. The buildings are very solid and there is no problem. The warehouses for various materials were built by our own people. The servants have arranged for people to guard them there to ensure that all items are safe."

"The secret passage in the palace has already been sealed by the slaves, and a small team has been sent to guard it to ensure that the enemy will not enter from there."

Zhu Zhangui nodded, and was about to take Hu Yu and others to see other places when a fast horse galloped over from the city gate in the distance.

The horses stopped at the door, and after the guarding soldiers confirmed that they were their own people, they asked them to hand over their weapons before letting them in.

The dusty soldier ran up the stairs and quickly replied to Zhu Zhangui.

"Your Highness, the enemy is found 50 miles to the north!"

Zhu Zhangui's heart tightened.

Is it time to come or is it here?

"How many troops are there in the enemy army?"

"The number of people is about 8, and the number of cavalry is about 5000. Four cannons were found along with them, but the shape is very crude, and they should be modeled after ours. In addition, a chariot similar to a swarm of bees was found in it, and other firearms were not found." Soldier replied loudly.

Zhu Zhangui nodded and said to the soldier.

"You and the brothers have worked hard, and then go to find out, and you can find out a little bit!"

"Yes!"

The soldier saluted, took the two thirst-quenching fruits thrown by Hu Yu, and ran downstairs quickly.

"Notify the whole army to prepare for war, tell the people in the city that a war is coming, and hide at home so that they don't come out."

After Hu Yu left, Zhu Zhangui followed right behind, and a somewhat nervous Tagiris said: "I'll send someone to take you back first, don't come out until the war is over!"

Tagiris nodded obediently, and at the same time exhorted worriedly.

"Brother Zhangui, then you have to be careful, I'll be waiting for you."

After seeing off Tagilis, Zhu Zhangui led the people towards the city wall in strides.

The people in the Western Regions who received the news on the street were also rushing home.

Occasionally, I met Ming army troops rushing towards the city wall, and shouted loudly, be careful and pay attention to safety, and beat those evil nobles away by the way!

Listening to the crappy Daming official dialect on the street, Zhu Zhangui felt weird for a while.

With this kind of support, I am afraid that the people of Ming Dynasty may not be able to achieve this step.

When they came to the defensive city wall, the soldiers were busy under the orders of the officers.

Some helped carry ammunition, and some distributed bows, arrows, rolling stones, wood and other items for defending the city.

In this raid, the soldiers each carried only 200 rounds of ammunition.

In the raid that night, except for the sharpshooter, most people only fired two or three rounds of ammunition, so there were still plenty of ammunition.

However, due to the large number of enemies, Zhu Zhangui has ordered half of the troops to put on armor and crossbows in order to prevent the consumption of ammunition from being too large to support Jianghuai.

The news kept coming, and the enemy's intelligence was gradually being figured out.

According to the investigation of the spies, the enemies who came this time were complex, including all the nobles around.

The spies were even inside and found the flag of the Timurid Empire.

The commander-in-chief flag of the leader hangs the flag of the Eastern Chagatai Khan family.

According to the interrogation of the captives, the leader of the team should be the nephew of Sier Mahama.

The number of enemies is about 9 people. Except for 2000 people who are equipped with flintlock muskets, all the others are cold weapons.

There are 4 cannons in the siege weapons, and the others have not been found yet, and it should be that the enemy plans to manufacture them again when they arrive.

The source of the guns and artillery was not asked, but Zhu Zhangui knew in his heart that the other party should have obtained it from the Timur Empire.

When he was in Jinling, he received a memorial from Zhang Fu.

According to Zhang Fu's report, the Timurid Empire on the opposite side has developed artillery and muskets, and the source should be imitated from the weapons captured by the Ming army.

Although the range of the opponent's guns and artillery is less than half that of the Ming army, this already means that the opponent has mastered the method of making firearms.

War is often the most conducive to technological explosion.

As long as those in power are not fools, they will definitely discover the benefits of guns and artillery, and then invest a lot of money and manpower to study weapons in this area.

It is estimated that the Timurid Empire, which is close to the west, will also introduce this kind of weapon to the west, plus the weapons lost by Zheng He and others in the west.

With the combination of the two, Zhu Zhangui can be sure that in the next decade or even decades, the world's war pattern will be changed, and the era of line infantry may come earlier.

Thinking of this possibility, Zhu Zhangui squeezed his brows with some headaches.

There is no secret that cannot be revealed.

Just like Zhu Zhangui watched and some movies and TV shows in his previous life.

The protagonist produced firearms and killed all directions. The enemy was beaten black and blue, and the protagonist's weapon was seized. Not only did he not study and imitate it, but he also ridiculed the uselessness of this weapon, and continued to fight against the protagonist with a cold weapon.

When Zhu Zhangui saw these contents, he was thinking at the time that this kind of thing is absolutely impossible for a person who has suffered from cerebral thrombosis for 10 years.

I was beaten to the bum, and even ridiculed that this weapon is useless. This kind of enemy should take the money to see a doctor when he is free.

The real people in power, after suffering another loss, will definitely increase their research on this aspect, and even get the manufacturing method of this weapon at all costs.

It is all nonsense to talk about strict control of secrecy, etc. As long as there is large-scale equipment, there is no such thing as secrecy at all.
