Chapter 450: Daming Royal Caravan

Suddenly, the Yulin Guard came forward to drag Xiao Dezi out of the wailing Xiao Dezi. Xiao Dezi was favored by Zhu Houzhao, so he acted quite erratic, so he naturally offended a group of people.

It’s just that everyone has no way to deal with Xiao Dezi, but this does not mean that Xiao Dezi has no enemies.

Now that Xiao Dezi's actions have fallen into Chu Yi's eyes, they have touched Chu Yi's bottom line.

Chu Yi spent a lot of effort to introduce Zhu Houzhao into the formality and became a bit like a wise ruler. As a result, Xiao Dezi actually had signs of becoming a powerful eunuch in the generation.

Not to mention whether Xiao Dezi can become a powerful eunuch in the future, it is not a good thing that Zhu Houzhao favors a arrogant eunuch like Xiao Dezi.

It is said that learning is difficult and learning is very easy. In order to influence Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Houzhao can get on the right track and there is a vague possibility of becoming a wise ruler. A little dear boy appeared halfway.

Chu Yi obviously couldn't have understood some of Xiao Dezi's deeds. He was just concerned about Zhu Houzhao's face, so Chu Yi did not touch Xiao Dezi.

But he never thought that Xiao Dezi was so unrestrained and suddenly hit Chu Yi's gun. After all, it would be fine if Xiao Dezi acted on weekdays. Now, in front of Chu Yi and others, Xiao Dezi is still so arrogant. It would be strange if Chu Yi did not respond.

Seeing Xiao Dezi being dragged down, Yang Yiqing and other nobles who were accompanying Zhu Houzhao to leave Beijing showed a little smile on their faces.

The nobles rose, but everyone did not forget the situation that was suppressed by civil servants. The reason why the nobles now have a seat in the court is because of Chu Yi and Zhu Houzhao's strong support.

If Zhu Houzhao, the emperor who is expected to rise to the noble group, becomes a foolish monarch, Yang Yiqing can guarantee that those civil servants will never miss the opportunity to suppress the noble group.

Before the camp gate, several soldiers who were stunned by this scene looked at Chu Yi, Zhu Houzhao and his group in disbelief.

Although they had long guessed that Chu Yi and others had a good identity, they never dreamed that they were stopped outside the barracks by them, including Dangjinzi, Wu Wang Chuyi and others.

Chu Yi stepped forward and showed off a token, nodded slightly at the pale soldiers and said, "This is a token, you can check it!"

The sergeant took the token from Chu Yi with trembling hands. After checking it tremblingly, he knelt down in front of Zhu Houzhao and others, and said tremblingly: "We don't know that our Majesty is coming. We deserve to die for thousands of deaths, and we deserve to die for thousands of deaths..."

The soldiers were already frightened. At this moment, they saw their sergeant kneeling on the ground, almost instinctively knelt on the ground and bowing to Zhu Houzhao and others.

Zhu Houzhao turned over and dismounted, stepped forward and helped the commander up, and said to the soldiers: "Soldiers, please get up quickly, you are loyal to your duties, what are you guilty of?"

The soldiers knelt on the ground tremblingly and didn't dare to get up. After all, in their opinion, their previous actions were to stop the Holy Driving, and they were afraid they would lose their heads.

At this moment, Zhu Houzhao asked them to stand up, but no one could believe it. Naturally, he knelt on the ground and refused to get up.

Chu Yi stepped forward and looked at the people and said in a deep voice: "You are not joking. Your Majesty said you are not guilty, and you are not guilty. You are loyal and loyal, not only are you guilty, but you have made contributions."

Zhu Houzhao nodded and said, "What the great companion said is very true. Several soldiers have made contributions and were promoted to the third level of official position. They are spread throughout the army and are praised."

The soldiers felt like they were dreaming. They first consciously angered the emperor, and there was only one way to die. One heart sank into the valley. In the end, Chu Yi and the emperor actually told them that they were innocent, and even Zhu Houzhao wanted to reward them, which was naturally like in a dream.

"His Majesty……"

As the Minister of War, Yang Yiqing was also the noble of these soldiers. He looked at the soldiers and said, "Your Majesty's words, why are you doing while standing there? Why don't you get up and apologize to Your Majesty!"

At this moment, the soldiers who seemed to be in a dream came to their senses a little. They glanced at Chu Yi and others, and secretly looked at Zhu Houzhao. They found that Zhu Houzhao had a smile on her face, not the anger they imagined, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts.

"Thank you Your Majesty, thank you Your Highness Wu!"

The movement at the gate of the camp was quite big. At this moment, Sun Qiu, who was ordered to sit in the military camp, rushed over with several generals. He saw Chu Yi, Zhu Houzhao and his group at the gate from afar.

When he saw Chu Yi, Zhu Houzhao and others, Sun Qiu and several other generals couldn't help but feel a slap in his heart.

Chu Yi handed over the task of training soldiers to them. If something went wrong when Chu Yi and Zhu Houzhao came to check, they would be the one who was unlucky.

Chu Yi couldn't rub the sand in his eyes. Although Sun Qiu and others could be considered Chu Yi's direct descendants, once something went wrong, Chu Yi would not tell him anything about his feelings. He would definitely deal with it.

"The last generals will pay homage to Your Majesty, Your Highness, King Wu, and we will come late. Please forgive me."

Zhu Houzhao brushed his hand slightly and signaled Sun Qiu and others to get up, and then said to Sun Qiu: "I am very happy that these soldiers can stick to their true positions and do their duty. I have already promised several people to be promoted to the third level, but Nan'an Bo should not forget!"

When Sun Qiu heard this, his heart couldn't help but fall down. He was afraid that these guards guarding the camp would do something that violated military discipline.

Looking at Zhu Houzhao's expression and reaction now, it is obvious that things are not as bad as he imagined.

"I will thank His Majesty for their behalf!"

While speaking, Sun Qiu and others turned sideways towards Zhu Houzhao, Chu Yi and others said, "Your Majesty, Grandmaster, please join the camp!"

When you entered the military camp, a solemn aura suddenly came to your face. There were barracks one by one. You could see teams of soldiers patrolling the military camp, which was orderly.

Just looking at these, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but nod. As an emperor who was determined to expand territory and targeted Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang and Chengzu Zhu Di, Zhu Houzhao naturally could not have no understanding of military strategy.

As for what the Ming army looked like, Zhu Houzhao actually knew it. Otherwise, Zhu Houzhao would not have issued an order to rectify the Beijing camp not long after he ascended the throne, and dispatched elite troops from the border town to form the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp.

It was precisely because of the current situation of the Ming army that Zhu Houzhao felt more difficult to have such an orderly atmosphere in this camp of recruits.

The recruits themselves need time to train and restrain. If they do not have some ability, they will not talk about anything else, but the most basic order of these 100,000 recruits may not be maintained, let alone training.

Yang Yiqing and others looked at the scene around them with a look of surprise, obviously they were deeply surprised that Sun Qiu and other generals were able to manage a new recruit battalion in such orderly manner.

Yang Yiqing couldn't help but exclaim: "No wonder the Grand Chief Executive recommended Nan'an Bo to Your Majesty to preside over the training of the new army. I didn't know that Nan'an Bo has such ability to train the army!"

When Sun Qiu heard this, he couldn't help but bow to Yang Yiqing with a humble expression: "Shangshu is absurd. The Majesty and the Grand Chief of the Uncle Meng are trustworthy. He should do his best to do his best, for fear of letting down the Majesty and the Grand Chief of the Uncle. Compared with the Master Shangshu, the Uncle is far inferior to the Majesty and the Grand Chief of the Uncle..."

Zhu Houzhao heard the conversation between Yang Yiqing and Sun Qiu and couldn't help laughing. While laughing, she looked at Sun Qiu with great appreciation and said, "What the Duke of Jin said is not bad. I didn't expect that Nan'an Bo would have such ability to train troops. When it comes to knowing people, I am far inferior to a great companion!"

Under the guidance and introduction of Sun Qiu, Zhu Houzhao, Chu Yi and others spent half a day almost traveling through the entire barracks and gained a detailed understanding of the situation of the new army.

A barracks appeared in everyone's sight. It was Sun Qiu's big tent in the new military camp. This barracks were not much different except that they were larger than those of the soldiers.

Entering the barracks, everyone sat down. Zhu Houzhao looked at Sun Qiu and other generals with anticipation and said, "Nan'an Bo, I see how many soldiers look like soldiers, I don't know how long it will take to form an army?"

Originally, it was estimated that it would take at least a year for training from the new recruits to the army to be pulled out to fight, but after entering the barracks personally, Zhu Houzhao was a little expectant. After all, the performance of these newly recruited soldiers in the new recruits far exceeded Zhu Houzhao's expectations.

Sun Qiu was slightly stunned, looked at Zhu Houzhao with an expectant look, and hesitated for a moment: "Report to Your Majesty, military and national affairs should not be ignored. I can guarantee that I can form an army within eight months at most. If the time is short, I will not dare to make any guarantee."

Zhu Houzhao nodded with satisfaction and said, "I am very relieved to shorten the time from one year to eight months, but Nan Anbo is capable of being very capable!"

To be honest, even Chu Yi never thought that Sun Qiu had such ability to train troops. You should know that many excellent generals can command troops and rush forward, but may not be able to train troops.

Chu Yi had only discovered that the team led by Sun Qiu was more orderly than the team led by other generals. As the saying goes, one of them was taller among the shorts, and he never thought that he would actually find a treasure.

There is never a shortage of brave generals in the army who can charge into battle. Hundreds of thousands of troops can be found if they are willing. However, it is extremely rare for generals like Sun Qiu to train troops.

Zhu Houzhao turned sideways to Chu Yi and said, "Big partner, Nan'an Bo is so talented. I am going to hand over the second batch of new recruits to Nan'an Bo for training. I wonder what the big partner wants?"

Chu Yi smiled slightly, his eyes fell on Sun Qiu and said, "Nan Anbo, why don't you thank Your Majesty quickly!"

Sun Qiu reacted and quickly stood up and bowed to Zhu Houzhao, with a look of excitement on his face: "I will definitely live up to what Your Majesty wants."

Zhu Houzhao handed over the power of the 200,000 new troops to Sun Qiu, which was definitely a great trust in Sun Qiu. You must know that these new troops were trained in Sun Qiu's hands. Although they dare not say that they had made Sun Qiu's mark on these 200,000 new troops, they also highlighted Sun Qiu's outstandingness to a certain extent. With such qualifications, Sun Qiu will definitely rise to the sky in the future. Moreover, if such a great power to train troops was not really well won the emperor's heart, how could he have completely handed over it to one person?

On the official road, Chu Yi, Zhu Houzhao and others were slowly returning to the capital. The king and his ministers were heading together, and Zhu Houzhao was talking to Chu Yi in a low voice.

Suddenly, a rapid sound of horse hooves came from the front, and several Yulin Guards almost instinctively drove forward to protect Chu Yi, Zhu Houzhao and others.

Zhu Houzhao and Chu Yi looked up at the visitor, and saw a group of people rushing towards him, but the person in the visitor was quite eye-catching.

Everyone turned over and dismounted, bowed to Zhu Houzhao and said, "I am Qian Ning, paying homage to Your Majesty! I have met the general manager!"

The person who came was none other than Qian Ning, the commander in charge of the Jinyiwei.

Zhu Houzhao looked at Qian Ning, raised her eyebrows and said with a little confusion: "Qian Ning, why did he rush in? Could it be that there is something important to find me?"

Qian Ning took a deep breath and said to the back: "Linde, why don't you come and pay homage to Your Majesty and report what you see and hear to Your Majesty and the Chief Executive!"

Among the several Jinyiwei strong men who were lying on the ground, a Jinyiwei strong men who were obviously dusty walked forward a few steps forward and respectfully said to Zhu Houzhao: "My minister Lin De, I am a secret spy from the Jinyiwei, and I am ordered to accompany the imperial prisoner to take the caravan of Lu Anti-Japanese to Japan..."

It turned out that Lin De was actually a member of Lu Kang's royal caravan. Lu Kang was careless for a moment, resulting in almost all the people being killed by Japanese pirates.

However, the small boat that Linde and his men were riding by luck escaped. They floated on the sea for nearly ten days, ate all the food on the boat, drank all the clear water, and almost died on the sea. The people who escaped the disaster even broke out in an internal strife in order to compete for the final food and clear water. Linde used his considerable skills to kill several companions and finally returned to the Ming Dynasty.

Lin De did not dare to believe the local Jinyiwei. With his fighting spirit, he robbed a wealthy and unkind businessman in the local area. He relied on the robbery of gold and silver to buy horses. In a few days, more than a dozen fast horses that died from the southeast coastal area rushed to the capital.

Listening to Linde's story about their fleet being hunted by Japanese pirates at sea, everyone was shocked.

Everyone knows that with Chu Yi's permission, the Imperial Supervision Bureau formed a caravan directly belonging to the Ming Dynasty royal family, and this caravan was secretly called the Ming Dynasty royal caravan by civil and military officials. Although many officials made countless impeachments on this, they could not even pass the cabinet's level.

After counting the time, it has been almost two or three months since the Royal Caravan of the Ming Dynasty. If Lin De had not brought the news that the caravan was surrounded and killed by Japanese pirates, Yang Yiqing and others would have almost forgotten this unique caravan.
