Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

An old man with a gray beard beside him put down his bowl and chopsticks and said to Mr. Wang:

"We also liked to eat rice at first, but we northerners have never seen any rice you can make!

In the first few days, we also ate with open stomachs! "

"But, after we ate it, we discovered that our stomachs would growl after a while. No matter how full we were, it wouldn't do anything..."

Wang Euzhi couldn't help but be dumbfounded!

Yes!

China is huge!

The dietary gap between the north and the south is naturally very different.

Southerners are not used to eating noodles, so they treat noodles as snacks.

Aren’t the northerners not used to eating rice and treat it as a snack?

……

About an hour later, when all the people had finished eating, Zhao Baihu called Wang and his wife to go to the canteen to get bowls and chopsticks.

After filling a large bowl of stew, Wang Euzhi discovered that the meat in the meal was actually pork.

He asked doubtfully:

“Zhao Baihu, is this pork available every day?

If this is the case, even a single province would be unable to supply the pork consumed every day! "

Zhao Baihu shook his head:

“There are mountains all around here. When we train, we hunt game, such as wild boars, hares, wolves, leopards, etc.

These meats are also part of the meal. "

Wang Fuzhi nodded.

On the way here, he even saw several tigers swimming across the river!

Xindu is located in the mountains, so there are naturally many wild animals.

The army destroyed the wild beasts, which provided security for the new capital and at the same time provided meat for the people.

This is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone!

Zhao Baihu continued:

"Your Majesty is in Yunyang. There are naval forces training. They will fish and send the catch to the construction site as part of their meat."

The broad Han River is rich in fish resources.

Not to mention this era, even in the era of population explosion in later generations, in the 90s, fishermen made homemade explosive bags and could harvest as much as a thousand kilograms with one shot!

In this day and age, you can't even catch the fish with one shot!

Zhao Baihu plucked the food a few times and picked up a piece of pig's trotter tip from the bowl:

"Look, Mr. Wang, from the size of this pig's feet, you can deduce that the slaughtered pig only weighs about a hundred kilograms."

"These pigs were raised by His Majesty from the waste residue when pressing syrup in the sugar workshop in Yunyang."

……

Just when Wang Fuzhi and others were experiencing first-hand the changes that the emperor's establishment of a new capital brought to the land of Zhongzhou.

A larger fleet slowly sailed into the waters of Xiangyang.

This fleet consists of thousands of ships of various sizes, and the giant ship at the head is like a moving water fortress.

In fact, the three-story attic on the hull is as high as the gate tower of Xiangyang City!

It was Zheng Sen and his party who came aboard.

Hao Yaoqi, who was stationed in Xiangyang, did not dare to neglect, and immediately ordered the navy to assemble, resolutely going to meet them.

Hao Yaoqi felt unsure.

There are so many ships coming!

However, these days, the emperor has been strengthening the size of his fleet.

However, the rivers in the north are gentle and even the storms at sea are not big. Therefore, the popular boats in northern China are mostly flat-bottomed sand boats.

Flat-bottomed sand boats are originally cargo ships with low sides.

Facing Zheng's giant ships dominating the China Sea, it is naturally not enough to see.

……

Even if the emperor set up a shipyard in Yunyang and was working overtime to produce ships...

however……

Boats are not that easy to build!

The wood often had to dry out for several years. It was difficult for the emperor to start a business from scratch, even if he had various drawings in hand!

Hao Yaoqi looked at his hundreds of large and small sand ships. Even though he knew that he was going to escape death, he still firmly called Zhang Yingxuan, the prefect of Xiangyang.

"Zhang Futai, if a certain family goes here and something goes wrong, Futai will just close the city gate tightly and notify your majesty immediately!"

Hao Yaoqi's face was serious, but his heart was calm.

If a man dies, he will die!

Your Majesty has pardoned me as a traitor, and you are even more trustworthy.

Don’t scholars often say that a scholar will die for his bosom friend?

Today I, Hao Yaoqi, will die without any regrets!

Zhang Yingxuan gritted his teeth and tried to dissuade him:

"General Hao, the country is in ruins. It is time for Your Majesty to show off his skills and regain the territory. General Hao is so important to Your Majesty that he must not be so belittled.

I, Zhang Yingxuan, am just an experience, and your majesty did not give up on it and promoted me to the prefect of Dacheng.

Your Majesty has no repayment for his kindness, so let Zhang go on behalf of the general today! "

Zhang Yingxuan clearly distinguishes the importance. If he dies, it has nothing to do with the overall situation. If he dies, he will die.

However, Hao Yaoqi is different!

Hao Yaoqi laughed and ordered to the soldiers beside him:

"Here, please sit high on the city gate tower. The remaining generals will follow you to meet the enemy!"

Hao Yaoqi gave the order, and some soldiers held Zhang Yingxuan and left.

Seeing that Hao Yaoqi was determined to die, Zhang Yingxuan could not escape the drag of Hao Yaoqi's soldiers.

Anxious Zhang Yingxuan cursed:

"Hao Yaoqi, you reckless man, you are the general of His Majesty's bodyguard, and you are highly valued by His Majesty. You are the general who wants to regain the lost land for His Majesty!

How could he die in the river so cowardly!

Hao Yaoqi, let me go! "

However, in the face of Zhang Yingxuan's swearing, Hao Yaoqi bent down and saluted Zhang Yingxuan.

His face was calm and he laughed and said:

"Hao was originally a rebel. He died for His Majesty today. It can be regarded as repaying His Majesty's kindness!"

After finishing speaking, Hao Yaoqi waved his hand:

"My sons, follow me to die!"

"You are not married, and you are an only child, so I will stay with you to protect Magistrate Zhang.

If you die, there will be no one left in your family. As long as you still think you are the leader, I will take care of you! "

Hao Yaoqi's ruffian style not only did not disgust the soldiers, but also made everyone stand up.

Even the soldiers had already grasped the weapons in their hands.

"Damn it, do you have a wife?"

Hao Yaoqi's eyes were moist.

He scolded the guard captain Zhu San:

"Your family is dead. If you sink into the Han River, your Zhu family will be dead!"

Get out of here, you damn bitch! "

Zhu San, who was named, grabbed the steel gun at his waist.

He stroked the slightly bluish glow on the gun:

"General, His Majesty personally handed over the quick gun to me.

Zhu San has not yet been able to offer a head to His Majesty!

Even if I'm defeated, I, Zhu San, won't dare to take even a step back! "

"Damn, you crazy person!"

Hao Yaoqi cursed and looked at his subordinate Sanqianerlang.

However, even though most of the 3000 people died by themselves, there were no more singletons in the family.

But no one took a step back.

They even looked at Hao Yaoqi with a bit of pleading.

"You idiots, you are seeking death on your own. If you die, don't blame me for not protecting you!"
