Zhu Youxiao knew very well in his heart that as long as he began to unabashedly express his intention to intervene in the outer court with the core of controlling military power and reforming the army, and wanted to change the Ming Dynasty, which had numerous shortcomings, then there would be a large number of groups who would Counterattack in any form at any time.

This has nothing to do with conspiracy theories!

It is purely a special product derived from the class you live in. After all, you have vested interests in your hands, which can bring you tangible benefits and conveniences. Suddenly one day, someone wants to take them back, but any normal person will think of all kinds of things. Ways to fight back and obstruct.

Even the lofty emperor!

In the majestic Forbidden City, in the capital city at the center of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youxiao was indeed the sacred and inviolable Son of Ming Dynasty, possessing the power of life and death.

But outside the Forbidden City, outside the capital, if there is something that really involves interests, how many people in the world would choose to recognize it?

I'm afraid there are very few! !

dong dong dong...

The sound of drums resounding in the sky echoed throughout the world, and a large-scale inspection parade kicked off at the military garrison of the Fifth Army Camp.

Zhu Youxiao, who was surrounded by a crowd of people, stood on the high commanding platform, looking at the various camps and schools under the jurisdiction of the Central Military Commission of the Fifth Army Camp. He heard the drum and started corresponding actions. Zhu Youxiao raised his telescope from time to time to see some The mood of the camp camp queue can be described as extremely complicated.

As far as the performance of the various battalions and schools under the jurisdiction of the Fifth Military Camp is concerned, I can only say that everything is pretty passable. There are no particularly outstanding performances or particularly amazing behaviors. Everything seems to be done according to a fixed pattern. Although in the army, Order at all levels is not loose, but it is completely impossible to rely on such an army to win some battles that must be won.

"Your Majesty seems not very satisfied."

"It seems so."

"It is said that Xiong Tingbi is very good at training and reorganizing an army. According to a certain person, this is just a boast. I really don't know why Your Majesty wants to pardon this barbarian."

"Keep your voice down, don't let others hear you."

"So what if I heard it..."

In an area of ​​​​Dianjiangtai, a group of serving nobles gathered together, consciously or unconsciously observing the emperor's expression, and from time to time looking at the various ministries and camps gathered in the distant school field, and various whispering sounds rang out.

"You still have to practice."

Under such circumstances, Yuan Keli, who took office as Minister of War, glanced at the group of serving nobles and whispered to Xiong Tingbi who was standing next to him: "I'm afraid that the other camps in the Beijing camp are not much different from the ones in front of me. Right? If the capital camp looks like this, let alone fighting on the battlefield for the imperial court, even protecting the stability of the capital city and the capital will be extremely difficult to draw a conclusion. "

"You have to eat your food one bite at a time, right?"

Xiong Tingbi said, "Have you not seen the various performances of various ministries and camps when I first came to the capital? The imperial court spends a lot of money and food every year to raise a group of wine bags and rice bags, which can't even reach the stragglers!"

"At least the stragglers dare to go to the battlefield, but they don't. If they really go to the battlefield, they will be scared to death by what they think before they even see a strong enemy."

There’s a long way to go! !

Yuan Keli sighed softly, feeling deep in his heart. He knew what Xiong Tingbi meant. When he first came to Denglai and took office as governor, the army under Denglai's rule, whether it was the guards, the navy, or the Many of the garrison troops looked like this. In order to change this situation, Yuan Keli did not know how much effort he put in, let alone how many people he offended.

"Brother Emperor, aren't the performance of each of these inspection camps poor?" Zhu Youjian, who was aware of these movements, saw that many people were talking in low voices, especially Yuan Keli and Xiong Tingbi. Although he didn't know what the two said from the expressions on his face, Zhu Youjian could tell that what the two talked about was probably some depressing words.

"It doesn't matter whether it's good or bad, it's just that I don't have the energy to give it to anyone else!"

Zhu Youxiao clutched the telescope in his hand and frowned slightly: "These camps and schools in front of us cannot be called an army, but should be called a team of farmers who have just left farming. We can command them even if we give orders, but Emperor brother, please don’t forget that we are not encountering an urgent war situation at the moment, let alone a cruel and powerful enemy.”

"If we really ask them to face this, they don't even need to take any action from the powerful enemy. They only need to launch a few rounds of intensive arrow rain offensives, plus a few rounds of shocking artillery attacks. I can be sure that these camps and schools will definitely fall into chaos. By then, countless people will be trampled to death by the robes around them."

It's not like this.

Zhu Youjian opened his mouth wide, unable to believe what his royal brother said.

It was also under this situation that Zhu Youjian's bright eyes looked at the various ministries and camps gathered in the distance.

In each of the relatively neat military formations, flags fluttering in the wind sounded. Generals at all levels in each military formation were scattered everywhere, scolding their officers and soldiers. The well-dressed officers and soldiers were either holding guns, blunderbuss, or crossbows. , or riding a horse... Each of them sticks to their respective positions.

Such a relatively well-organized army would not be so fragile!

"Let's go."

When Zhu Youjian was surprised, Zhu Youxiao turned around and said: "Let this inspection continue. I won't watch it and go back to the palace."

This……

The crowds gathered on the general stage showed different expressions after hearing what the emperor said. Especially those who were hostile to Xiong Tingbi, many showed gloating expressions.

"Xiong Qing."

"Chen is here!"

Xiong Tingbi stepped forward quickly and bowed to the emperor.

"I have said enough today."

Looking at Xiong Tingbi in front of him, Zhu Youxiao, who was standing with his hands behind his back, said calmly: "I won't say anything else. I will say one last thing to the Qing family. The truth needs to be tested by practice. Jingying should not In this way, I will wait for the three months to expire, hoping that I can see different changes in the Beijing Camp at that time."

"Your Majesty's teachings, I will definitely keep them in mind!"

Xiong Tingbi immediately expressed his position: "If the Beijing camp is still like this at that time, there is no need for your Majesty to say anything else. I am willing to commit suicide to apologize!!"

Xiong Tingbi knew what the problem was, especially after hearing what the emperor said at the end, Xiong Tingbi had only one idea now, and that was to achieve results.

In particular, Xiong Tingbi must not only hurry up to see what the emperor mentioned just now, but also hurry up and implement it in the capital camp. There is not much time left for him.

"I'm looking forward to it."

Glancing at Xiong Tingbi, Zhu Youxiao said something and walked towards the audience. He had done everything he had to do, and the rest was up to Xiong Tingbi. He had confidence in Xiong Tingbi, and now he What needs to be done is to reduce the interference from the outside world to the Beijing camp and Xiong Tingbi! !
