Then, after the cavalry lined up, came the auxiliary soldiers.

Compared with the cavalry, these auxiliary soldiers are mostly disabled.

Because these people are not simply soldiers and horses in charge of logistics. In addition to being in charge of logistics, they also need to kill the enemy.

Do things that soldiers don't have the energy to do.

In later generations, these auxiliary soldiers have a unified name - cannon fodder.

And the content of their drills couldn't help being disabled.

They were carrying all kinds of heavy objects, and arrows without arrows were shot around them from time to time.

And they either use shields or use their bodies to block the incoming arrows to protect the goods they want to escort, and finally transport the heavy objects to the cavalry.

Looking at these auxiliary soldiers, Zhu Xiongying's expression became serious.

Zhu Yuanzhang squinted his eyes, obviously noticing this.

"Ying'er, what do you want to say?"

"Grandfather, the content of their drill is so strange."

"What's so strange?"

"They seem to be dying..."

In a real battlefield, the casualty rate of auxiliary soldiers is astonishing.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, and finally Zhu Yuanzhang touched Zhu Xiongying's head and said

"Do you know who they are?"

"I don't know."

"They were the family of those warriors on horseback, or brothers, or fathers."

Zhu Xiongying froze in place again.

Horse people are their close relatives, so they have the courage to fight to the death.

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and sighed.

"We don't want this either..."

"At the beginning of the army, everyone joined the army with their families. In the end, only such soldiers and horses can display the strongest combat effectiveness. Therefore, my military system in Ming Dynasty gradually became like this. "

When Da Ming seized the world, it seemed as if he had gone through a crippling battle of survival of the fittest.

Every system has gone through the most cruel baptism of that era, and it has been chiseled out with thousands of hammers.

What they are facing is a behemoth that spans Eurasia that has never been faced before in all dynasties.

Therefore, people in this era yearn for a stable life more than anyone in any other era.

"Now, we are the one on the horse. One day in the future, your father will also ride on the horse. At that time, I will be your father's auxiliary soldier. When you are on the horse, if we are still alive, we will It must be those who escaped from the auxiliary soldiers."

Zhu Xiongying froze in place.

It wasn't until this moment that Zhu Xiongying fully understood what it meant that every word in the history books was full of white bones.

"Someone has to stand up and fight, otherwise the Tartars will come back."

"But Grandpa Huang, we don't have to fight to keep the Tartars honest."

Chapter 42 Strategies for Ping Rong! (ask for flowers, ask for evaluation votes)

"The grassland is vast and sparsely populated, and the people are not yet civilized. All expenses are entirely dependent on my Ming Dynasty. We can completely change our thinking."

"We can use the place where the grassland depends on me, Ming Dynasty, as a breakthrough."

Although Zhu Yuanzhang was surprised, he was not shocked.

Now what Zhu Xiongying said is indeed a feasible solution.

"Using horse market trading as a bargaining chip is indeed a feasible method, but I am afraid it will take a long time to be effective."

Zhu Xiongying shook his head and said

"We can't just have this strategy."

"It's okay to favor one over the other. I, Daming, hide inside the Great Wall and take care of the balance."

Although Zhu Yuanzhang knew that Zhu Xiongying was different from other children.

Because Zhu Xiongying is too smart.

But in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes no matter how smart he is, Zhu Xiongying is still a child, and what he thinks is too perfect.

"The Mongols are not fools. They won't let you fool around there. As long as one family grows a little bit, what they want is to unite and take control of the Central Plains again."

"Then we can increase the price!"

"Do you want to increase the number?"

Zhu Xiongying nodded firmly.

"There are so many common people in Ming Dynasty, we can choose some prisoners who are wearing crimes, or some common people who have lost their land, and let them go to the grassland to graze."

"Let my Ming people go to the grassland to graze?"

"Yes! It's just that they need to be given higher honors, and at the same time let their families live and work in peace and contentment in the interior, turning the grassland into a ladder like an imperial examination."

"They can be awarded titles or officials for their merits, and no matter what, they can display their talents on the grassland."

"Let all the people in the world come to the grasslands with the energy to read the books of the sages."

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help gasping when he heard the words.

How do these scholars usually study, and how hard they work during the imperial examination.

Zhu Yuanzhang is too clear.

This is actually putting the battlefield into the grassland. In the future, I am afraid that it will not be Meng Yuan who harassed Daming, but Da Ming who will harass Meng Yuan.

Although the system is still in its infancy.

But with a little improvement, it's definitely a way to go.

Looking at Zhu Xiongying, who was talking eloquently beside him.

A smile gradually appeared on Zhu Yuanzhang's face.

Although the idea is a little immature, but given time, this child will become a great tool.

Originally, Zhu Yuanzhang was worried that Zhu Xiongying would make a fool of himself in the Xiyuan exam.

but now.

Zhu Yuanzhang's hanging heart finally let go.

"Okay, Ying'er, you're right. It's in our hearts. We can rest assured about tomorrow's Xiyuan exam."

Wait a minute, what is the Xiyuan Exam?

I am a grandson, why do I still have to take the exam? !

Zhu Xiongying froze in place.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang turned on his horse and walked towards the palace.

……

……

Xiyuan the next day

Today's Xiyuan is extremely lively.

This is a major event to test the studies of the princes and grandchildren of the school. All the officials from Guozijian, Zuochunfang, Zhanshifu, and Hanlin Academy rushed here early in the morning to prepare.

And those arrogant vassals on weekdays are like eggplants beaten by frost today.

"What should I do? I haven't memorized my previous homework. Father won't hit me."

"Thirteenth brother, you forgot. The next time my father went to Zuochunfang for a stroll, I happened to meet the seventeenth brother playing with goldfish, so he didn't pick up the belt and smoked the seventeenth brother for an entire afternoon."

The eyes of King Gui Zhu Zhi, who was only seven years old, turned red instantly.

"Brother Fourteen, don't scare me, I, I'm timid!"

"Don't cry! Let's watch it now, it's a little bit more!"

"it is good!"

Zhu Zhi and Zhu Tan, a pair of troubled brothers, immediately picked up the book and began to study hard.

At this time Lu Ben was late.

Huang Zicheng was still telling Zhu Yunwen something.

The Crown Princess Lu couldn't help but feel distressed.

"It's embarrassing for this kid. I've been carrying it for three days and three nights, and I've lost a lot of weight."

Lu Ben nodded in relief.

"Okay, that's it! Your Highness will definitely impress His Majesty this time."

Mrs. Lu stroked Zhu Yunqi's little head and said

"Yun Wen, did you hear Grandpa praise you? You memorize it well, Grandpa Huang will definitely reward you."

A look of determination flashed across Zhu Yunqi's eyes.

"Mother, don't worry, Yun Wen will definitely make Grandpa Huang happy!"

At this moment, Lu Ben worriedly pulled Mrs. Lu aside, and asked in a low voice.

"Girl, how did Yun Wen learn this time, do you know how much money our Lu family spent this time!"

"Father, don't worry, Master Huang sent the questions along with the answers a few days ago. Yun Yun must be No. 1 in the big test this time!"

Hearing Lu's words, Lu Ben's heart was slightly relieved.

But at this time, the Lu family looked at Lu Ben with some doubts.

"Father, you are not the examiner today, what are you doing here in Xiyuan?"

Lu Ben snorted coldly.

He directly pulled out a memorial from his cuff, gritted his teeth and said coldly.

"Even if I can't knock down that stick today, the old man will take a sapphire copy hard today!"

Lu asked with some concern.

"Father, if you do this, if His Majesty refuses to follow, I'm afraid you will blame Dad again."

"Don't worry, those chief examiners will play together with Dad. At that time, even if His Majesty wants to favor Sapphire, hehe."

Lu Ben snorted coldly, as if he saw the scene of Zhu Xiongying being deposed before his eyes.

Chapter 43 Yinger, You Let Us Down Too Much, Please Flowers

Soon.

Zhu Yuanzhang's personal eunuch Hou Ying walked out of the hall slowly.

Looking at the people outside the main hall, Hou Ying said loudly with a hanging voice

"Your Majesty has a decree to summon King Xiang, Dai Wang, Liao King, Taisun Xiongying, and Huangsun Yunqi into the palace!"

Crown Princess Lu looked at Lu Ben and asked

"Father, are you not going in now?"

Lu Ben clicked his tongue

"No, as a father, I have to wait for Yun Wen to finish speaking, and then go in to impeach that Lizi. In this way, the impression of Yun Wen in His Majesty's heart will be even deeper."

Lu Ben is not stupid. Now that he goes in to impeach Zhu Xiongying, he probably will mess up today's Xiyuan Exam.

Isn't Zhu Yunwen's back in vain?

After finishing speaking, Lu Ben pointed to a small yellow gate at the entrance of the main hall.

"Father has already discussed with that father-in-law. As soon as Yun Yun finishes speaking, he will send me a signal. When the time comes, I will go in. Wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort?"
