Daming: I, Yang Xian, really govern Yang!

Chapter 64 I originally planned to get along with you as an ordinary person.
Imperial City, Kunning Palace.

After a busy day, Zhu Yuanzhang came to Ma Xiuying with his tired body.

Only here can his tense spirit get a temporary rest.

Lao Zhu, who had not eaten all day due to the war in the north, was munching on porridge.

"I just like to drink the porridge you made."

"Okay, I'm full!"

Zhu Yuanzhang put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, took a long breath, looked back at Ma Xiuying, who was sitting far away, picking up the soles of her shoes, and said: "We made a mistake. I originally thought that the caretaker has been trained for so many years. But who can Cheng Xiang"

"Yes." Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said. "Bao'er's name only has one Bao, Wang Baobao, two Bao."

As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang stretched out two fingers, gestured towards Ma Xiuying, and said: "How can one protect against two?"

"That's why I don't think about food or food all day long." Ma Xiuying said.

"Since we were proclaimed King of Wu, Mr. Li, Master Liu, and that Hu Weiyong have told us several times that we cannot allow a certain general to hold military power for a long time. In fact, this is why we asked Tiande to relieve himself of his duties and transfer him to Zhongshu Province. Preserve him.”

In front of Ma Xiuying, Zhu Yuanzhang always expressed his true feelings directly without any reservation.

"If Tiande has to lead the army this time, then he returns victorious and can only be crowned king. Let's not talk about whether Mr. Li and Master Liu can pass the test. Even if they can pass, This is not a good thing for Tiande.”

at the same time.

Duke Wei's mansion, study room.

"Be crowned king?" Xu Da looked at his daughter and said with a smile.

"That's right, and he's still a king with a different surname." Xu Miaoyun couldn't laugh at all. She looked directly into Xu Da's eyes, nodded, and said seriously. "Let's not talk about whether the emperor has other ideas. Even if the emperor trusts you 100%, what will the civil and military officials of the court think?"

"Don't worry, big girl." Xu Da patted Xu Miaoyun's shoulder and told her to relax, because he, the father, was there for everything. "Aren't you just worried that there will be no reward in the end? Then why don't we just find someone to reward the emperor?"

As one of the few founding heroes who died a good death.

Xu Miaoyun could see things clearly, but Xu Da couldn't see clearly?

"Big girl, didn't you say that Yang Xian in Yangzhou was the first to discover that the Northern Expedition might have a bad start?" Xu Da asked.

"Don't the emperor need new military leaders? Isn't this ready-made?"

On the other side of the palace.

Zhu Biao came to Kunning Palace late at night.

After receiving the report from Zhu Biao's trip to Yangzhou, Zhu Yuanzhang's frown finally relaxed.

"Are you saying that Yang Xian predicted in advance that the Northern Expedition would end in failure because of Lan Yu's lone army?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

Zhu Biao nodded and said, "Yes, I didn't expect Yang Qing to be so insightful in the military."

"Okay, let's get someone to draft the decree right away!"

"At the same time, notify Tiande to enter the palace."

Yangzhou.

Yang Xian never expected that one day, someone would sit down at home and disaster would come from the sky.

He listened to the eunuch in front of him and read out the imperial edict.

Everyone is dumbfounded.

Yang Xian couldn't believe his ears at all.

Zhu Yuanzhang actually asked him to lead his troops out of the fortress and repel the Yuan soldiers? !
The imperial edict also said that he was proficient in military strategy?
I have a good academic background, and I am a disciple of Liu Bowen. Lao Zhu, are you confused?
After being tricked like this by Zhu Yuanzhang, Yang Xian really couldn't help him.

"Your Highness, I have never led troops in a war. Did I make a mistake somewhere?" Yang Xian said as he looked at Zhu Biao and went to Zhu Biao himself.Zhu Biao smiled and said: "Yang Qing, my father knows that you are inexperienced, so he asked me to tell you that Duke Wei will be sent to go with you. When the time comes, he will be stationed in the north. You can rest assured. You only need to make plans at the rear. That’s it.”

Only then did Yang Xian come to his senses.

Originally, his role was just to share the credit of Xu Da.

That is to say, it acts as a mascot.

Although the moment the imperial edict was read out, Yang Xian found that in his system, in addition to Yangzhou, there was also Peiping in the territory column.

During this Northern Expedition, he was indeed in charge of the military affairs of Peiping in name only.According to the system's explanation, this territory is related to the national destiny and the people's hearts.

But even so, Yang Xian was still unwilling.

You must know that on the battlefield, anything can happen.

If the Tatars in the north really break through Peiping, then after losing their territory, they will lose the power of system protection.

Although this possibility is slim, such a thing did not happen in the original time and space.

But even if there is only a one in [-] possibility, then there is a chance that it is not.

Originally, Yang Xian had no intention of taking out some things so early, but now he had no choice but to save his own life.

Because the main army was taken away by Li Wenzhong and Lan Yu before.

Therefore, this expedition requires the deployment of troops from other border areas such as Daning, which takes time.

Yang Xian is going to take advantage of this time to improve gunpowder!

Now he is in the right position.

We can be honest and develop some military technology.

Although gunpowder was widely used in the Ming Dynasty.

But Yang Xian did a little research and found that there were many problems with gunpowder in this era.

For people in this era, everything basically needs to be solved through experience.

Experience is something that cannot be specifically quantified.

There is no way to form a standard set of things.

In addition, these belong to the category of craftsmen, and not many talents are devoted to them.

This resulted in slow development.

Relying on the system, Yang Xian not only improved the gunpowder ratio, but also added some new things to it.

white sugar!

It was the white sugar he had made using the system before.

After making white sugar, Yang Xian did not immediately promote it nationwide like snowflake salt.

Instead, it has been hidden until now, and only some desserts made with white sugar are brought to the market.

One of the most important reasons is here.

You must know that white sugar has been regarded as an important strategic material until modern times. One of the reasons is that it is used to make explosives. During the war of aggression against my country, the Japanese army plundered 6 tons of white sugar every year in our country and used it to make explosives. However, this was still It was far from enough. They still had to transport huge amounts of sugar from their homeland for consumption in the war.

Nowadays, a large amount of finished sugar products are stored in the warehouse of the white sugar processing workshop in Yangzhou City.
