I want to be a grandson

Chapter 45 Talent!

Li Fu explained: "Your Highness, this is not an easy task. Our Ming Dynasty has a vast territory, very complex terrain, and there are many feudal states around it, and there are many defenses in various places. If you can answer all of these, it will not be easy... "

"Is it difficult?" Zhu Yunxi asked suspiciously.

"It's really difficult..." Then Li Fu began to explain how the Ministry of War nominates officials to the East Palace, what skills are there, and what is particular about it.

After hearing this, Zhu Yunxi suddenly realized, without saying anything else, he just said that the Ming Dynasty had such a long border, and how many counties there must be in it.

What are the passes in each county, where can troops be stationed, where can they be garrisoned, how many people are there, what is the city wall, how many soldiers and horses can be resisted, how far are they from each other, and how many distances are there? It is a very huge project. !

"Based on what you're saying, is this king asking too much?" Zhu Yunxi asked thoughtfully.

Li Fu hurriedly said: "I don't dare, it's just that the people in the Ministry of War don't know which item His Highness will ask, and they are not prepared at all, so I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with it for a while..."

"Your Highness, the servant girl is back!"

Just as he was talking, the eunuch Wang Zhong had already arrived, wiping the sweat from his forehead, obviously he was also very anxious.

"Qi De, head of the military department of Weichen, pays homage to His Highness the Prince of the County!"

I saw that the person who came was wearing a six-rank official uniform, 37 or [-] years old, with a square face with Chinese characters, and his eyes were like torches, which seemed a bit awe-inspiring and upright.

"Get up and sit down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty the Duke." Qi De got up and sat on the chair brought by Wang Zhong next to him.

Zhu Yunxi leaned slightly on the chair, found a rather casual posture, looked at him and said, "This king also just found out that someone from the Ministry of War was invited to consult for a while. It turns out that there is so much attention to it. Why, you offended me in the Ministry of War. people?"

A trace of helplessness flashed in Qi De's eyes, and he bowed his hands and said, "His Royal Highness has an order, and the entire military department will naturally obey it. It's just that other people have important matters to deal with, so they sent my ministers here."

Hehe, it's important...

Zhu Yunxi smiled in his heart, how could he not know that the first rank of officials crushed people to death, no one would be willing to put such a drudgery on anyone.

But it didn't say that if you ask someone, they don't want to come, and if it spreads out, it will damage your dignity, okay?

Seeing that he didn't bring any books and albums, I don't know if he was just perfunctory or what happened.

Then he asked: "This king is also on a whim. I want to know what's going on outside. Did you come here without making any preparations? Are you really prepared or... can you handle it?"

How could Qi De not understand that when he said "can handle", he meant perfunctory.

I'm just a small head of the military department of the sixth rank, so it's not good to leave such an impression on the emperor and grandson!
If he made a premise on the emperor, saying that he was perfunctory to the emperor's grandson, then the emperor probably would not give him a chance to defend himself!
So he hurriedly explained: "I don't dare! It's true that I don't know where and what your Highness is going to ask, so I can't prepare for it. Your Highness, please learn from me."

Zhu Yunxi nodded calmly, and said casually: "Well, this king can ask wherever he thinks, and let's chat casually."

"Wei Chen obeys."

Even if he wanted to know the situation of the kings in the north, Zhu Yunxi would not come up and ask directly, because the purpose would be too obvious!

So he said: "I think the elephants raised in the elephant room are quite majestic. It should be paid by Annan, so let's start with Annan."

"Yes, I obey!"

Qi De thought for a while and then immediately said: "Annan, also known as Jiaozhou and Jiaozhi, has been our territory since the Han and Tang Dynasties. During the Five Dynasties and Later Jin Dynasty, Wu Quan, a native of Tanglinzhou in Jiaozhi, proclaimed himself king. From then on, Annan's independence began. .

"In this dynasty, Annan became a vassal state of Ming Dynasty..."

"Annan is rich in products, and there are a lot of gold and silver mines, and many of them are not fully developed. There are precious ivory and rhinoceros horns in the mountain and forest areas."

"In the coastal areas, the common people will go to the sea to collect pearls, rare shellfish and corals. In addition, there are also a lot of local products such as pepper and spices..."

"As well as rare birds and animals such as deer, elephants, turtles, sparrows, apes, snakes, etc., which are innumerable and inexhaustible..."

"Speaking of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, in fact, since the establishment of this dynasty, the emperor has continuously sent troops to crusade against northern Mongolia. In December of the second year of Hongwu, the emperor sent generals Xu Da and Chang Yuchun to lead an army of 20 to carry out the Northern Expedition.

This battle overthrew the Mongolian rule in the north in one fell swoop, and drove the Mongolian nobles back to Mobei. The Mongolians completely lost their rule south of the Great Wall and retreated to Mobei. "

"In the 20th year of Hongwu, Lan Yu was dispatched as the commander-in-chief, with Tang Sheng and Guo Ying as the left and right lieutenants leading an army of 15 to the northern expedition to Mongolia.

The army met the main Mongolian army in Yuerhai in Mobei, and finally the Ming army defeated the Mongolian cavalry. This battle caused the collapse of Mongolian rule in Mobei. "

"Now the Mongolian forces are split into three groups, namely Wacha, Mongolian Headquarters and Wuliangha. There are still quite a few forces..."

"However, Your Highness, don't worry, the emperor is stationed at the border, and the princes are supporting Daming, which can ensure the stability of Daming...

Next, I will tell His Highness about the generals and soldiers guarding everywhere..."

Gradually, Zhu Yunxi realized something was wrong.

This Qi De didn't even have a piece of paper in his hand, and many of the things he talked about were very detailed and nuanced.

But there is almost no need to think about it in the middle, it is clear and comprehensive.

Everything came at random, and it was obvious that he was familiar with it a long time ago. Only by speaking out at this time can he be confident.

Moreover, some of his own inquiries were mixed in, and he was able to respond freely and answer them perfectly.

This is amazing!

How big is a vassal's jurisdiction, how many counties are there, how much cultivated land and population, how many soldiers and horses are deployed, how is the military equipped,
Who are the guarding generals, how old are they, whether they are seriously injured, their in-laws, their military exploits, their personality, their hobbies, and their proficiency in combat methods?
Even the three generations of children and grandchildren have said the exact same thing, and the family's ancestral graves were almost dug up!

talent!

What kind of talent is he who can understand almost all generals so clearly!
Zhu Yunxi took a deep breath, this guy is simply a walking file!

With this know-it-all, it's easy for me to learn about armaments!
Moreover, many talents can be discovered as soon as possible, so that they can deploy and deal with them as soon as possible!

Such a talent must not be let go!

"Master Qi, would you like to study with me in the East Palace?"

Qi De was talking eloquently, when he suddenly heard Zhu Yunxie's voice, he couldn't help being taken aback.

The servant of the Eastern Palace?

This is...to study with the emperor's grandson?

Because the crown prince has passed away, the companion can only be the grandson of the emperor... However, the companion of the East Palace seems to be the grandson of the pope.

Zhu Yunxi didn't wait for him to answer, afraid of saying something he disagreed with.

I have stretched out my olive branch, wouldn't it be embarrassing if I was rejected?

So he continued: "I think that Master Qi is also a talent, and I can't bear to bury it. If Master Qi is willing, I will go and ask the emperor's grandfather for permission. What does Master Qi think?"

　In recommendation, please support, thank you
