Daming: At the beginning, recognize Zhu Yuanzhang as grandfather!

Chapter 140 Great Ming Military Power!

The Governor's Mansion of the Zuo Army is one of the governor's mansions of the Five Armies of the Ming Dynasty.

The Five-Army Commander’s Mansion is divided into the Former Military Commander’s Mansion, the Rear Military Commander’s Mansion, the Left Army’s Commander’s Mansion, the Right Army’s Commander’s Mansion, and the Central Army’s Commander’s Mansion. It is the highest military institution in Ming Dynasty.

The five-army governor's mansion has great power, and even the Ministry of War has no right to intervene in the affairs of the five-army governor's mansion.

The one in charge with Li Jinglong is the Governor's Mansion of the Left Army.

It has been a while since Zhu Xiongying ascended to the position of grandson, but he has not seen Ming's iron army yet.

So taking this opportunity, he asked Li Jinglong to bring him over to have a look.

A group of people quickly went to the left military academy field outside the city...

……

on the campus.

At this time, the left guard stayed in Beijing, and the Zhennan Guard had assembled.

Hearing that the grandson of the emperor was going to visit, Li Jinglong hurriedly asked people to make preparations. He wanted to show the best side of his Zuo army.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
As soon as I approached the school grounds, I heard the sound of drums shaking the sky.

The sound of the drums went from slow to fast, and at last it was like a gust of wind and rain, or like a thunderbolt, one wave after another.

The originally peaceful suburb suddenly became chilling.

Zhu Xiongying, who was riding on a fat horse, could not help but gradually boil his blood as he got closer.

With the appearance of Zhu Xiongying, Li Jinglong and others, the soldiers present shouted violently.

"Da Ming will win!"

"Da Ming will win!"

The shouts were loud and filled the sky.

The outskirts of Yingtian City seemed to have turned into a battlefield of gold and iron horses at this moment.

Accompanied by Li Jinglong, Zhu Xiongying walked slowly on a horse, feeling and watching.

This was the first time he felt the momentum of the Ming army.

It made his blood boil.

Even the horse under his crotch was also affected, his temple hair suddenly rose and he neighed.

At this moment, Zhu Xiongying finally understood why Li Jinglong was so obsessed with the battlefield, and he only wanted to be a general in his life, and wanted to lead Ming's army to fight the enemy.

He also finally understood why the later Zhu Di ignored Emperor Anwen and wanted to conquer Mobei several times, and even died on the way to the battle.

It turns out that Daming's army is so exciting and exciting that people can't help but want to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds.

Zhu Xiongying rode a horse and slowly came to the front of the phalanx amidst the turbulent shouts.

At a glance, it is a battle flag fluttering in the wind, hunting and hunting, and it is a neatly arranged iron-clad phalanx like a mountain.

As motionless as a mountain, the momentum swallows the sky.

Today is a rare warm winter day, but in front of the bright armor of the Ming army, the sun seems to be eclipsed.

The bright armor reflects the light of the sun, making these proud soldiers look like a sharp sword out of its sheath, full of murderous aura.

"His Royal Highness, a thousand years ago!"

Zhu Xiongying turned over and leaped off the horse. His movements were crisp and neat. Accompanied by Li Jinglong, Zhang Fu and others, he slowly climbed onto the platform.

At this moment, the whole audience became quiet, even more chilling.

Zhu Xiongying looked at Daming's army, clenched his hands into fists, and put them on his chest.

With this simple action, all the soldiers are ready for battle in an instant.

Zhu Xiongying took a light breath and let out a breath.

"The Ming army is mighty!"

"Your Highness is mighty!"

All the soldiers shouted in unison, and the voice shook the sky.

"The Ming army is mighty!"

"His Royal Highness is a thousand years old!"

After a round of shouting, everyone's blood was boiling.

Standing beside Zhu Xiongying, Li Jinglong drew out his long knife with a bang, and shouted loudly: "All officers and men listen to the order, review, start!!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

On the school grounds, the soldiers of the three armies once again let out an earth-shaking roar.

At the same time, war drums were beating.

The sound of the drums was rapid, one sound passed by one sound, one sound followed by another sound.

With the command flag in Li Jinglong's hand waving, not far away, a pair of phalanxes came galloping on horses. The earthquake shook the mountains, and the people and horses quickly gathered in front of the point general's stage.

"Humble post, Wei Qian of Qingqi Battalion, lead [-] Qingqi, see Your Highness!"

Under the leadership of general Wei Qian, the movements of the three thousand Qingqi were uniform and prohibited.

Zhu Xiongying nodded slightly.

Wei Qian then turned around and shouted: "Array!"

The Qingqi phalanx split instantly and galloped towards both sides, like two long dragons.

Li Jinglong explained to Zhu Songying at the side: "This light cavalry battalion is for long-distance combat. This kind of long snake formation is flexible and changeable, effectively keeping the distance from the enemy, and playing the role of shooting and hunting!"

Zhu Xiongying glanced at Li Jinglong.

When this guy talked about the art of war, he was really eloquent. No wonder Zhu Yunqi in history loved him so much, he confidently handed over the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Ming Dynasty to him, and let him rush.

Seeing Zhu Xiongying's strange expression, Li Jinglong couldn't help but smacked his lips and said, "Your Highness, did I make a mistake?"

Zhu Xiongying shook his head with a smile: "No, if you practice well, you can speak well!"

Hearing this, Li Jinglong couldn't hide his pride: "Your Highness has won the award!"

After finishing speaking, Li Jinglong waved the command flag again.

The Qingqi Battalion withdrew from the site in front of the stage in an orderly manner, and then the boom sounded again, and this time it was Daming's infantry who stepped forward for inspection.

Every infantryman was wearing heavy armor, shining brightly under the warm afternoon sun.

The infantry marched at every step, without the slightest sign of chaos.

In a neat queue, in a majestic formation, the first row is shining spears, and then there are heavy weapons such as iron axes and steel knives.

Even Zhu Xiongying was a little surprised. In this era, there is such an orderly queue.

But think about it and feel relieved.

If the Ming Dynasty had no infantry prohibited by order, how could it seize the world from the Mongolian Yuan iron cavalry who are good at riding and shooting?
"Da Ming will win!"

"Da Ming will win!"

As the infantry marched, they let out deafening shouts.

"Your Highness, this is the Polu Army!"

Li Jinglong explained next to Zhu Xiongying: "At that time, our father led this army, set off from Yanmen Pass, stationed in Mayi, defeated Beiyuan soldiers, captured Pingzhang Liu Timu, entered Baiyangmen, and defeated the enemy army. Captured the enemy general Tuo Liebo, captured and beheaded more than [-] people, and chased Mang brother to the warehouse and returned!"

Speaking of his father Li Wenzhong's achievements, Li Jinglong's eyes were full of arrogance and admiration.

at this time.

"Sudden! Sudden! Sudden!"

A few gunshots startled Zhu Xiongying, who was still looking at the Polu army, and looked over suddenly.

I saw that behind the infantry was the artillerymen of the Ming army.

The soldiers pushed a row of artillery, followed the infantry, and came face to face.

Along with it, there are soldiers carrying firecrackers.

They followed the infantry, firing and defending in an orderly manner.

Zhu Xiongying's eyes suddenly lit up.

This is what he wants to see the most when he comes today.

firearm.

This kind of thermal weapon has already played an important role on the battlefield of Ming Dynasty.

But it is far from achieving the effect of later generations.

Take firecrackers as an example. Firecrackers have been used on the battlefield since the Yuan Dynasty. Later, the rebel army led by Zhu Yuanzhang used them the most, and made great contributions to their seizure of power.

However, the firecrackers of this period were still very primitive muzzle blunderbusses, long-barreled firearms, etc., without triggers, they were ignited by a live wire, and their shooting range was only about [-] meters. It was difficult to control the shooting accuracy and range.

There may even be a risk of the firearm exploding.

Historically, after Zhu Di came to the throne, he also made a series of improvements to the firecracker to make the firecracker's technology more mature, but none of them reached the power of the bird's gun.

"Looks like it's time to develop more powerful weapons!" Zhu Xiongying thought while watching.

Zhu Xiongying is watching Zuo Jun's school field drill.

But outside the school grounds, Zhu Yuanzhang, who came to look for his grandson, was looking at him with deep eyes...
