First Prince of Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 63 Safeguard

  When Zhu Biao closed his eyes and rested his mind, Liu Jin led a group of palace maids and walked in with food boxes, and delicacies with all kinds of color, fragrance and taste were placed in front of Zhu Biao.

   Liu Jin looked at His Royal Highness with closed eyes and meditated, and said, "Master, it's time to eat."

  Zhu Biao actually doesn’t have much appetite, but when his body is developing, he is always hungry, so he managed to cheer up and eat dinner.

  Zhu Biao walked to the bed in a little confusion and lay down on the bed.

  Yun Jin, who was warming the bed inside, whispered a few times, but Zhu Biao didn't have the energy to reply.

  After sleeping until dawn the next day, Zhu Biao was full of energy again, youth is capital.

   After washing up, Zhu Biao went to the Wenhua Palace to study the situation in Yanyun. Now there are more than 200,000 remnants in the sixteen prefectures, but there are not many scattered in the sixteen prefectures.

  Besides, Boer Zhijin Tuohuan Tiemuer led the Yuan Dynasty royal family to retreat to the grassland. There was no commander in the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, so the possibility of them being able to gather a crowd to resist was also very low.

  After analyzing various conditions, Zhu Biao finally had a complete plan in mind.

   These can actually be handed over to Liu Bowen and Chang Yuchun, and even if they arrange the battle, it will be better than Zhu Biao's.

But that would lose the meaning of Zhu Biao's planning for so long. His expedition this time is not only to recover the meritorious service of the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, but more importantly, to show his ability to the military generals, so that those arrogant soldiers You will know that His Royal Highness knows military affairs!

  Zhu Biao has been raised for ten years, and with the cooperation of Song Lian and other great Confucians, he has already had a good reputation in the hearts of scholars all over the world. These may not be reflected now, but it does not mean that they do not exist.

  Zhu Biao this time is to make up for the last shortcoming for himself, laying the foundation for subduing the Xungui Group in the future.

  So yesterday Chang Yuchun and Liu Bowen just watched him arrange matters, unless Zhu Biao asked, otherwise they would never intervene!

  Zhu Biao pondered silently for another half an hour, making sure that nothing goes wrong.

  Liu Jin walked in holding a warm handkerchief and said to Zhu Biao, "Master, King Kaiping and Uncle Chengyi have already arrived. Do you want them to come in?"

  Zhu Biao took it and wiped his face, cheered up and said: "Please come in, and make tribute tea later!"

   Liu Jin left as promised, Zhu Biao leaned on the chair and squeezed his little face, and then waited for Chang Yuchun and others to come in.

   As a result, seeing the three brothers from the Zhu family who came in first, they were stunned. The second brother said with a smile: "Brother, we met Uncle Chang and the others when we first came, so we came in together."

  The third child tugged at his sleeve, then bowed together with Chang Yuchun and the others, "I have seen the crown prince, Your Highness!"

  Zhu Biao nodded with a smile, raised his hand and gave a little support, and said, "Excuse me! Sit down."

   Then he looked at the three brothers and asked, "Why are you three here again? You think you were scolded badly enough yesterday!"

  The second child took out a folded piece of paper from his sleeve and sent it to Zhu Biao, saying, "The emperor sent this to the prince in the morning. He ordered us to hand it over to the prince. Brother, we haven't even looked at it!"

  Zhu Biao said with a smile: "Since I asked you to hand it over to me, then my father didn't mean to hide it from you."

   Reached out to open the letter paper, and there were only two lines inside: "Let the second and third follow you to study for a few days, and wait for Xu Da to go to Shandong in the second half of the year. The fourth will follow you to the north, and we must strictly control them!"

  After seeing it, Zhu Biao said directly: "Father means that you, the second and third, follow me first, and fight Wang Baobao with Uncle Xu in the second half of the year. The fourth and I will go north with me, and let me strictly restrain you."

  Chang Yuchun said: "Xu Shuai's leadership is as stable as Mount Tai, and the two highnesses can learn a lot from following. I hereby congratulate the two highnesses!"

   Sapphire and the others also congratulated.

  The three brothers all had smiles on their faces, but after all, they were young, and the surprise on their faces could not be hidden from these people.

  Especially Zhu Di, who was already engaged to the Xu family, but this time he didn't follow his father-in-law. This is obviously because his father didn't want him to have too much contact with the Xu family.

  Zhu Biao glanced at the younger brothers with different attitudes and ignored them. He asked Lan Yu and others to report on the affairs arranged yesterday.

  Sapphire’s inspection has only been carried out for a little while, and there is no problem at present. After all, the prince is leading the army, and no one dares to seize the prince’s military supplies.

  The Marquis of Ji'an cooperated with the officials of the household department to collect nearly 100,000 horses and 50,000 camels as camel animals for transporting grain and grass.

  Geng Bingwen, Marquis of Changxing, led a thousand Qingqi to investigate the route yesterday.

  Zhu Biao arranged for the remaining generals to manage the army stationed outside the city.

  It will take time for the army to assemble. At present, nearly 30,000 people have come from all over the country, and there are more than 100,000 on the way, and the remaining 100,000 are waiting in Shuntian Mansion.

   Then he talked with them about the transportation of the army's luggage. After about an hour, Zhu Biao saw that it was almost done and served tea to see off the guests.

  When they were all gone, Zhu Biao took a look at his younger brothers who were already a little confused, and said with a smile: "How about it, isn't it interesting to fight?"

  The second prince Zhu Xi shook his head and said: "Brother, I haven't heard you say anything about how to fight for an hour. They are all messy trivial matters!"

  The third prince Zhu Yan also said: "That's right, let the people below do it. We are responsible for killing the enemy and destroying the army on the battlefield, and we just need to attack the city and pull out the stronghold."

Only Zhu Di looked thoughtful, and Zhu Biaoyou shook his head and said: "Wars are about logistics and military equipment. If there is no food and grass, 300,000 people will mutiny after starving for three days. Then why are you fighting?" ?”

  Zhu Biao said to his younger brothers: "It is not the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty now. Individual bravery has little influence on the army. If you want to be independent in the future, you must learn to manage these things, otherwise you will only be the vanguard for the rest of your life."

  The second child and the third child looked at each other and felt like crying without tears. Originally, they disliked the trouble of studying, so they thought about wielding knives and guns. I didn’t expect to learn those things now, and it was even more troublesome!

  Zhu Biao said unscrupulously: "You also saw the face of the emperor yesterday. If you are still lazy, if the emperor finds out, then the brother will not be able to save you!"

  Seeing the two reluctant and a young boy in good spirits, Zhu Biao is also very happy, it is rare that someone volunteers to come and suffer.

   Instruct them to go to Lan Yu to check the supplies together now, and to live in the camp outside the city for two days tomorrow to learn the flag orders with the soldiers, so that they can't even understand the orders when they arrive on the battlefield.

  After seeing them off, it was noon, and Zhu Biao sent someone to inform him and went to Kunning Palace.

   It has been several days since he visited his mother, and with the arrival of the army, he will definitely be busier and busier, so he should visit his mother while he is still free.

  ………

   Vote for the recommended vote (＾ω＾) It’s getting less and less every day~
