"I'll take a look."

He took Fang Jifan's hand and the wound was quite deep.

Although the internal injury was not seen, the external injury was real.

"Young man, take care of yourself." Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but say.

Fang Jifan said: "Son minister..."

"Okay." Emperor Hongzhi pressed his hands.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao came out of breath.

He first found Sir Francisco, and heard that he was the leader, so naturally he pressed him to the ground and beat him up again.

Sir Francesco was beaten and vomited blood, and cursed a few words.

Unexpectedly... Zhu Houzhao actually understood Spanish.

This made Zhu Houzhao so angry that he had a "communication" with him. It was not until Sir Francisco vomited a few more mouthfuls of old blood that he ordered people to remove the prisoners, treat the wounded, and test the results.

This busy time, he came with sweat and panting.

When others arrived, they saw Fang Jifan on his sickbed, and his father was asking about his well-being.

He was about to grin.

Emperor Hongzhi lowered his face: "Rebellious son, what did I say?"

Zhu Houzhao was confused: "What did the father say?"

"You still want to pretend not to know my will, you still want to..."

"I didn't receive the order." Zhu Houzhao said with an innocent look on his face: "When I heard the news, the son minister hurriedly brought troops to rescue the emperor and came to serve the king. Why did the father give the son minister the order again?"

Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

Soon, the anger on Emperor Hongzhi's face dissipated.

He wasn't really angry.

Instead, he doesn't want to issue an order next time, and Zhu Houzhao treats it as straw paper.

He insisted on coming to ask Zhu Houzhao to return to Beijing. How dangerous it would be.

But seeing Zhu Houzhao's innocent look on his face, he thought that if it weren't for the prince and Fang Jifan, I was afraid that this battle would not have known the outcome. Although the Ming Dynasty had enough strength to dispatch troops and generals, trapped the Spanish to death, surrounded them, and beat them to death... Emperor Hongzhi understood it very much.

Things on the battlefield may happen by chance at any time.

Thinking about the Tumu Fort Incident, it was a huge army of hundreds of thousands, with all the elite troops and thousands of soldiers. So what? An accident or a tactical inappropriate person can leave behind eternal regrets.

Emperor Hongzhi's face calmed down a lot: "The Changping Guard has great combat power. I remember that a few months ago, the Changping Guard was just an ordinary ward..."

As he spoke, Emperor Hongzhi looked at Ma Wensheng.

Ma Wensheng immediately said: "Your Majesty, it is precisely that Changpingwei has always been...unwell in the organization. If it weren't for being stationed in Jingjin, I would have probably been cut off."

"It's not easy. It's really not easy for the prince in the past two months. Come on, let's talk about how you trained as a soldier."

Zhu Houzhao suddenly looked up and said, "This is very easy. My son led his troops, and there are only three. The first one is to share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers."

After hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi nodded repeatedly.

Everyone understands the truth. During the Spring and Autumn Period, these lessons have been left long ago.

But to be honest, it is not easy to share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers, especially the dignified prince. To be honest, this is very difficult. How many people in the world can do it?

Zhu Houzhao said: "The second is to avoid the worries of the soldiers, and to let them use their lives steadily. What is the use of doing for the country and the people? Who doesn't want to be a real man for the country and the people? But... they have to pay money. If you don't have money, you can make people fight to the death. People's lives are not just from the court. They have old people and young people. What should I do? Then, I have to settle down well. When the money is given enough, they will be more lenient. If the ministers ask them to practice, they will practice. If they ask them to go to the sword mountain, they will go to the sword mountain, and they will go to the sea of ​​fire."

"Why is this? Because they understand very well, they did not treat them badly when they were practicing normally. If they worked hard for the court, made contributions, or died in battle, the ministers would not treat them badly. Therefore, Changping Wei was in the battle, and the orders were consistent, and the advance and retreat were orderly."

Emperor Hongzhi breathed out: "Yes, it is absolutely impossible to have no money. A small family needs money to make a living, and a big family needs money to prosper; a court without money, it is even more impossible to strengthen the army. Silver is a good thing."

Zhu Houzhao said: "The third thing is to use your brain, what weapons the soldiers use, how the performance of the weapons can be achieved through exercise, how can they discover problems with weapons, and actively improve them, or develop matching training methods to exert the effectiveness of the weapons. This... requires thinking. Otherwise, no matter how good the weapon is, in the hands of the soldiers, it is just a fire stick. If the general does not take the initiative to discover problems and does not want to improve them, even if you love the soldiers and have excellent weapons, it is just empty talk."

This is not about weapons, but when it comes to weapons, Emperor Hongzhi remembered the spear.

Emperor Hongzhi saw it clearly. He killed the enemy a hundred steps away, and the gunshots were so loud that he couldn't stop.

Emperor Hongzhi had witnessed the practice of Sanqian Camp and Shenji Camp with his own eyes. He knew that ordinary muskets would never be able to exert such power, so... he felt shocked.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "What is the gun in Changpingwei's hand? What is it called?"

Zhu Hou【.】I was so happy when I heard it, she grinned: "Yes..."

Fang Jifan on the sickbed was anxious and immediately said, "Your Majesty, its surname is Fang, and there is another name. This one is very interesting. It is the uncle of the aunt of my cousin's nephew."

Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

All the officials were in their sleeves, and they began to calculate with their fingers.

Emperor Hongzhi was too lazy to guess the riddle: "What the hell is it?"

"Call Mr. Fang..." Zhu Houzhao said dejectedly.

Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

"Who got the name?" Emperor Hongzhi coughed, his face slightly red.

Zhu Houzhao secretly glanced at Fang Jifan, and Fang Jifan began to pretend to be dead on the sickbed with his head in his arms.

It seems that only Zhu Houzhao can answer this question, so Zhu Houzhao had to say: "Father, it is my son who has obtained it, but my son who has taken it is fun."

"Nothing!" Emperor Hongzhi had a gloomy face.

Fortunately, he did not continue to pursue it: "This musket is very rare. Take one, let me see."

A moment later, someone took a 1512 rifle from Uncle Fang and sent it. Emperor Hongzhi took it. It was quite heavy and was indeed much more sophisticated than ordinary rifles. It was a good thing at first glance.

Although Emperor Hongzhi didn't know where this thing was, today, it was with this that he beat the Spaniards to pieces.

After playing with it, Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "This thing is really sharp. Jifan, this is what you made in the West Mountain."

Fang Jifan said: "Your Majesty, it was built by Xishan. At that time, this was also what Your Majesty allowed the West Mountain to build firearms. After receiving the order, he did not dare to neglect it. He recruited a group of skilled craftsmen and took countless efforts to build it."

Emperor Hongzhi's blood couldn't help but feel warm.

He frowned: "It is tolerant that Spain dares to invade the Ming Dynasty. Who is intolerable? This is a great humiliation. But... if our millions of troops in the Ming Dynasty are all like Changping Guards, the weapons they use are also this musket, then how dare the Spanish stings attack my Ming Dynasty."

He began to think about it.

If we really think that as he said, millions of troops were equipped with such weapons, and were well-trained as Changping Guards, then... how powerful would the Ming Dynasty be?

Fang Jifan couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, the Spanish invasion, but in fact... although it can be seen that they are arrogant, it is not without reason."

"oh?"

Fang Jifan said: "For decades, Spain has been taking risks again and again. They have good luck. Every time they engage in military adventures, they have made great profits. Because of this, they not only began to be arrogant, but also... ordinary people no longer look down on small profits. Everyone in the military and civilians tried to make a fortune through conquest and plunder. The kings of their country gained huge wealth through adventures and were even more enthusiastic about this. Although they knew the greatness of the Ming Dynasty, they were blinded by interests in their hearts, which was the concern of interests."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded.

In fact, at the beginning, he could not understand why the Spaniards dared to come all the way thousands of miles, which was very puzzling.

But if you think about it carefully, it is not unreasonable.

Fang Jifan said again: "As for Your Majesty's hope to train a million Changpingwei, in the eyes of my ministers, this is also the ultimate goal of our Ming Dynasty, because only in this way can the Ming Dynasty truly shine with the sun and the moon, and all the territory of the Ming Dynasty will be within the four seas. However... Once you have to have such a huge scale, on the one hand, you will spend countless money and food, and the supplies you need in the future will be even more amazing. Therefore... the most important thing about the Ming Dynasty is to enrich the country first before you can strengthen the army."

Emperor Hongzhi walked a few steps and nodded repeatedly. He knew that this thing cost a lot.

Otherwise... why did Shen Wen remind himself every day that His Royal Highness still owe him money?

It's only two months now, a small guard, the cost is so great

After Emperor Hongzhi said that, he smiled: "No matter what, the prince and the follower have made great contributions to the king and rescue the emperor. No matter what, I will reward you. The prince..."

"My son is here." Zhu Houzhao bowed.

Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "You are the prince, and you will be a good prince in the future."

Zhu Houzhao: "..."

"Jifan."

Fang Jifan's heart skipped a beat. Damn, next, he should be a good Duke of Qi.

"The son is here."

Emperor Hongzhi said slowly: "The State of Qi has made great contributions, so let's open a government and build a teeth."
