The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 710 The Introverted Huang Guan

On February [-], the dragon looked up.

I have to admit that Huang Guan's abilities are almost excellent in all aspects.

In just three days, Zhu Ying has received a complete charter.

The detailed planning of the expeditionary force, as well as the optimal ratio of soldiers and auxiliary troops, the amount of food to be carried, and the ratio of the types of ships in the navy's fleet, etc., are all specified in detail.

There is no harm without comparison.

In the past, Zhu Ying was generally responsible for handling these affairs, and then the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households provided the detailed regulations, and finally Zhu Yuanzhang looked over them, checked for omissions and filled in gaps, and put forward reference opinions, and finally Zhu Ying finalized them.

First of all, in terms of time, it will take at least seven days to go up, and it will take nearly half a month to finalize.

Now that Huang Guan has the power of the Zhan Shifu, it is equivalent to walking under the Taisun's family, even the six ministers must pay attention to it.

Therefore, when Huang Guan went to the Minister of War, Ru Yu, and the Minister of Household, Zhao Mian, the two had no choice but to put down their work and cooperate fully.

Huang Guan is also a ruthless person. He is very aware of how much the Tree of Tears is valued in the heart of His Royal Highness, so the expeditionary force is extremely important.

Prior to this, according to Zhu Ying's plan, the expeditionary force would cross the winter on foot next year, when the Bering Strait would freeze.

But with the fleet transportation provided by Huang Guan, it means that at the end of this year, the expeditionary force is very likely to catch up with the freezing period of the Bering Strait.

If you get the Tree of Tears one day earlier, you can complete Daming's steam iron-clad ship one day earlier.

So all processes should be shortened and accelerated as much as possible.

So Huang Guan simply used the name of his grandson to forcibly pull Ru Yu and Zhao Mian to work overtime to complete the detailed regulations.

Many officials from the two departments also worked overtime together.

It was a matter of grandson's attention, so Ru Yu and Zhao Mian naturally didn't dare to delay, they could only tell all the staff in the department to work overtime.

The yamen of the six ministries are basically next to the imperial palace, and the Guanglu Temple in the palace can provide officials with meals when working overtime.

Good guy, Huang Guan's introverted behavior directly led several departments to work overtime.

This is a very rare situation in the current Ming Dynasty.

Even if Zhu Yuanzhang had previously dealt with a large amount of government affairs every day, except for calling officials for some urgent matters, it was rare for a large number of departments to work overtime at the same time.

Usually this happens only in wartime.

Poor Ru Yu and Zhao Mian have already passed the threshold of knowing the destiny. It is really unbearable for people in their fifties to stay up so late.

The 35-year-old Huang Guan was full of energy and directly dominated the entire meeting.

In fact, the detailed regulations were completed on the second day of overtime work, but in order to check for omissions and fill in vacancies, even Huang Guan, who has a photographic memory, re-examined it three times and revised some minor points before submitting it to his grandson for review.

After Zhu Ying got the detailed regulations, she asked the old man to review them together.

"This Huang Guan is quite capable, I didn't expect that we still underestimated him."

Huang Guan is the number one scholar handpicked by Zhu Yuanzhang, so of course he knows how famous the number one scholar of his six poems is.

At that time, the 27-year-old Huang Guan was young and vigorous, and the name of child prodigy and genius accompanied him all the way.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew very well that such a talent, if not well-crafted, is very likely to be abolished, and the mind cannot be immersed in learning more knowledge.

So it was placed in the Ministry of Rites.

From the perspective of the emperor, it was domestication.

People who are proud of their talents don't like to be restricted by rules, and the Ministry of Rites, as a place of etiquette, is naturally the place with the strictest rules.

In addition, the Ministry of Rites is also responsible for diplomatic affairs, and can learn more knowledge when dealing with envoys from all countries.

It has to be said that Zhu Yuanzhang has reached the pinnacle in the means of controlling people.

Huang Guan, who won six yuan in a row, really felt young and frivolous.

He thinks that there is only one stone of talent in the world, and he monopolizes eight buckets, and the other two buckets are shared by everyone in the world.

After arriving at the Ministry of Rites, my temperament was gradually smoothed out, and my mind was also settled. While learning the rules and etiquette of the Ministry of Rites, I was also learning the culture of all countries, being inclusive, keeping a low profile.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not treat him badly either. Although the department was not transferred, he was promoted according to merit in terms of rank.

In fact, there are still relatives, otherwise, how could an ordinary person like Huang Guan who has no backstage background have soared all the way to become a member of the third rank in less than five years.

"We once served him in the household department for a year, but we didn't think he was so outstanding. I didn't expect that he would perform so well when he joined Dasun's family."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the charter that he had worked out in three days, and said with admiration.

In fact, it's no wonder that Huang Guan's performance in the household department was mediocre.

When Huang Guan was in the household department, it was the 28th year of Hongwu. At that time, the household department was almost emptied by Zhu Ying, and it became Zhu Ying's speech hall.

Except for the taxation part, Zhu Ying is basically responsible for other aspects of money management.

Zhao Mian, Minister of the Household Department, dared to confront Zhu Ying, and Huang Guan, the right servant of the Household Department at the next level, of course only obeyed orders.

At that time, Zhu Ying mainly handed over simple tasks to the household department, and most of them were handled by the more trusted Zhang Bo.

The part that Huang Guan was in charge of was done very well, but it was like a simple answer sheet, with only [-] points on the paper, and [-] points for those who missed it. It was very common, so Huang Guan had no place to show his ability at all.

The reason why Zhu Yuanzhang recommended Huang Guan at this time was because he felt that although most of the courtiers were highly talented, age was a limit, and they could no longer keep up with the Taisun's thinking in many ways.

Huang Guan was chosen because he was young. The 35-year-old Huang Guan was considered a new generation among high-level ministers.

Now it has given many surprises.

From the details of the charter alone, it can be seen that the feasibility of going to the Bering Strait, or the top of the extreme north, is very high.

Every detail has been considered very well.

Even when Zhu Yuanzhang was young, he had lined up his troops and strategized, that's what he was doing.

"Grandpa has the foresight, and now the rough jade has been carved into a tool, which can be used for a long time."

Although she once complained about the old man's ways, Zhu Ying still has to admit that the current Huang Guan is very easy to use.

Because of being nurtured in the Ministry of Rites, Zhu Ying has observed Huang Guan's behavior, and his loyalty to Daming is very high.

Jin Yiwei has also conducted a detailed investigation, and Huang Guan has not committed any corruption in these years.

For the grandson's flattery, Zhu Yuanzhang said it was very useful.

At the same time, he said: "Since the charter is so detailed, let's arrange things. We think Huang Zhanshi is right. There are priorities. The matter of the expeditionary army should be done sooner rather than later. Regarding the selection, there is no need to wait too much. It is completely fine." 5 people are selected first to start.”

"The above record is also very good. It makes sense. The expeditionary force can definitely set off another batch next year. The enthusiasm of the soldiers is so high. A mere 5 people is not a big burden for our Ming Dynasty."

"But this weeping tree has a lot to do with it. If we can really make this steam iron-clad ship, where in the world can our Ming Navy go?"

"Don't say it's the second batch, it's the third batch, so what about the fourth batch, if the number is not enough, then recruit people from the northern border. They live in the cold winter season all year round, so they naturally have their own way of survival. "

The pattern opens.

In Zhu Ying's view, the death rate of this expeditionary force was too high.

But in Zhu Yuanzhang's view, if a steam iron-clad ship can be built, even if it is a loss of 30 to [-] people, it will be worth it.

Zhu Ying still has a sense of morality, but someone like Zhu Yuanzhang who has spent half his life in killing, how can he have moral constraints.

From another perspective, he is morality itself.

"Makes sense."

Zhu Ying found that in this aspect, she was still in a small position.

Kindness does not hold soldiers.

Although I have secretly reminded myself many times, my thinking will naturally be limited.

In order to select suitable candidates for expeditionary forces as soon as possible.

Zhu Ying provided a relatively simple screening condition.

Run with weight.

Physical strength and endurance are the key to the expeditionary force.

Most of the time, they need to walk with basic supplies.

If these two conditions are not met, it is naturally impossible to join the expeditionary force.

As Zhu Ying's order was issued to all guards, the screening for weight-carrying began immediately.

Loading, according to the standard of fifty catties.

This is not Zhu Ying's original creation. As early as the Warring States period in Wei Guozhong, the regular army was also called Wei Wuzu, and it was organized by the famous general Wu Qi, with a maximum of 5 people.

But their physical training is very exaggerated.

According to historical records, each of them is armored with three attributes of clothing, wields a twelve-stone crossbow, carries fifty arrows on it, puts the dagger on it, wears a crown and a sword, wins food for three days, and travels a hundred miles in the middle of the day.

That is to say, each person carries seventy to eighty kilograms of equipment every day, and has to run more than 80 miles in half a day.

The era of cold weapons is to strongly tap people's own potential, as long as you can't die in practice, practice to death.

The fifty catties set by Zhu Ying is really not too much.

Because there are many cases involving recruits, only [-] catties of load are set.

In order to better show the demeanor of Taisun and the importance attached to the expeditionary army.

So Zhu Ying will watch in person in the selection contest of the guards near the capital.

You can't watch it all the time.

After all, this endurance competition is a hundred miles long, which is even worse than the marathon in later generations, and it also carries a weight of [-] catties.

It can't be compared with Wei Wuzu in Wei State. After all, their training method is not only to carry a weight of [-] to [-] catties, but also to run for half a day.

It is estimated that it will take at least half a day here.

The participating soldiers also carried extra dry food and water.

These are not included in the fifty catties.

Each game is jointly organized by several guards, with around [-] people.

At present, the radiation area can only be in Nanzhili for the time being, and 2 people will be selected.

The remaining 3 people will be selected in Beiping.

After the selection of Beiping is completed, the fleet is basically ready, and they can start from Haijin Port and go north around Koryo Island.

now.

Daming Military Academy.

"Tianlu, this time you are very successful. I didn't expect that after being selected, you could be promoted to a hundred households. This is a special gift from His Highness the Grandson."

"Unfortunately, after graduation this time, we won't be able to see each other for at least ten years, but you must treat everyone to have a good meal. Damn it, the settling fee is [-] guan. You kid is rich."

"Two thousand counts is a fortune, and this is a hundred households. If Tianlu can come back alive, he will be a master of thousands of households. Maybe he will be gifted a thousand households, a thousand households, this is our ten Can it be done in a year?"

"I don't care, you kid must treat guests, you have to have a big meal, I'm still a fucking chick, I'll depend on you tonight."

Wang Tianlu's mind is still a little hazy at the moment.

His own grades in the Military Academy are all first-class.

As the eldest son of the family, Wang Tianlu signed up for the expeditionary army without hesitation.

Compared with the guard, the selection of the Military Academy is much simpler, because the physical training of the weight-bearing running event is just a regular item in the Daming Military Academy, and they have to come here almost every two days.

Those who can successfully graduate from the Daming Military Academy have always been strong in physical fitness.

The food here is currently the best in the entire Ming army, and as a first-class student, he can also enjoy the treatment of medicinal baths to strengthen his body. Although he feels that these medicinal baths made by the medical school may not be very effective, but in Recovery is still very effective.

After soaking each time, the soreness all over the body will quickly disappear, and I can be alive and well the next day.

According to the current rules of the Daming Military Academy, it is no longer as easy as it used to be to get out of hundreds of households. Even top-notch students can only be educated by thousands of households.

From the gap between the sixth grade and the genuine product, there is still a trial hundred households in the middle.

The first-level official crushes people to death.

How difficult it is to upgrade now.

And because he was selected, he was specially nominated as a hundred households.

Wang Tianlu in the church was a little lost in his eyes.

The smiling voices of his classmates made him feel a little comforted.

Teach it now.

"According to the requirements of this expeditionary force, Wang Tianlu, you have finished your studies ahead of schedule, and you will be traveling north to Shanghai, Tianjin and Hong Kong with the army in five days. You should go back in these few days and rest for a few days before leaving."

Wang Tianlu nodded and got up, said hello to his classmates and went to pack up and get ready.

The classmates exclaimed one by one.

"Ah, why did we leave so quickly? We haven't had a rest yet. We can't have a big meal here."

"Guide, can you be more flexible, we still want to hold a farewell party for Wang Tianlu."

"Damn it, my brothel is ruined."

The teacher looked at the agitated students solemnly, and shook his head firmly.

There is no requirement to rest and take a bath, so naturally he can't make a private claim.

The rules of the military academy are very strict, not only for the students, but also for the teachers and instructors, which belong to the military control.

Naturally, Wang Tianlu was not the only lucky one.

At the gate of Daming Military Academy at the moment, there are about a dozen other people in the same situation as Wang Tianlu, obviously all of them were selected and specially promoted for participating in the Expeditionary Army.

It wasn't until this time that Wang Tianlu's sense of loneliness when he came out of the academy completely disappeared.

The 11 people looked at each other and all burst into laughter.

There are surprises and expectations in everyone's eyes.

Even though most people are not familiar with each other, there is no strangeness in walking side by side.

"I'm on Wangtian Road, Class A, Class Seven, what do you call me?"
