"Goodbye, little Yunxuan!"

Zhu Quan shouted and boarded the ferry first.

The other imperial uncles also boarded boats one after another to cross the river to the north, preparing to return to their fiefdoms. Those whose fiefdoms were in the south did not cross the river, but gathered on the bank, and finally left together.

"Little cousin, there are some things that I have to thank you for."

Zhu Gaochi came to Zhu Xuan and whispered: "I know we can go back to Peking. There must be my little cousin's plea behind us. Although the military power is gone, these are not important. Just leave safely."

This cousin is still a very clear-minded person. He knows that if Yan Fan wants to live a good life in the future, he must have a good relationship with Zhu Xuan.

Even if Zhu Di rebels no matter how much he rebels, it is still Zhu Di's business. What Zhu Gaochi wants is that Zhu Xuan can let his brothers go in the future. After all, Zhu Di is probably hopeless now, and he will not let it go.

"Cousin Gao Chi is welcome."

Zhu Xuan said.

"Brother!"

At this time, Zhu Gaosui shouted.

Zhu Gaochi said goodbye to Zhu Xuan, then turned back and said: "Here I come, I'm here!"

With his inconvenient legs, he ran quite fast. He quickly left with King Yan's team and crossed the river to go north. After returning this time, he didn't know how long it would take before he could respond to the sky again.

Watching their ferry go away, Zhu Xuan considered other things.

There is also a construction site on the shore, where people from their factory and the Science Pavilion are studying how to build a bridge across the river. Some foundations, columns and beams on the shore have already been laid. At this time, they are analyzing how the bridge will look like. Stress, how much force it can bear, what can be done to increase the force, etc.

When he came back, Zhu Xuan's big ship also brought a lot of steel and cement.

sufficient for their initial research.

Zhu Xuan watched on the shore for a while without disturbing their research. After thinking about it, he decided to go to Xu Miaojin to have some fun first and then prepare the new army.

——

Time passed very quickly, and another two days passed.

The eunuch of the Xingren Division passed the imperial edict to Tie Xuan and Ping An.

Ping An is going to Hetao to replace Lan Yu's original position, and also brings a group of new generation generals to fight the Tatars in Lan Yu's place.

Tie Xuan went to Peiping and also led a group of new generation generals. He also wanted to annex Zhu Di's three guards and the soldiers in other guard posts in Peiping, without giving Zhu Di any military power.

It was also the new generation of generals who were activated. Most of these generals were nobles from Huaixi. Lan Yu did not jump out to object and agreed in her heart.

Now Lan Yu is still reflecting at home and can't even leave the house.

Zhu Yuanzhang retained the title of Duke of his country, but everything else was gone.

It seemed that he had no intention of using it again and had to refrigerate it, which made Lan Yu very puzzled.

He is an arrogant person who is used to being arrogant. Usually, such a person cannot take time off, but now he has to sit idle at home. I don't know how helpless and boring he is.

After Tie Xuan and others received the order, they would soon set off north to take up posts at the border.

As their master, Zhu Xuan didn't need to come out to see them off, but he came anyway and sent them off to the riverside once again.

Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road.

When Tie Xuan and Tie Xuan saw Zhu Xuan coming to see them off, they were so moved that they quickly bowed down and Zhu Xuan had to help them up.

"You two, everything in the north depends on you."

Zhu Xuan warned with some sincerity: "You two should know the reason why I arranged for you to go north. Although it is a bit hard, you will go to experience for a while. When I come back in the future, I will not forget you."

Of course they know, especially Tie Xuan, that their role is to keep an eye on Zhu Di and check and balance Zhu Di. The task is extremely important. If they do it well, they will have a lot of credit and their position is also very important.

"I understand."

they said in unison.

"No need to be polite."

Zhu Xuan patted their shoulders and said: "It's okay over there in the Hetao. They are all soldiers of our Ming Dynasty. Brother Ping can relax a little, but it is not that easy in Peiping. My fourth uncle will never give up. Tie Sir, please be careful."

Ping An nodded slightly.

Tie Xuan said solemnly: "Your Highness, don't worry, I have the confidence and certainty to conquer those soldiers."

"correct!"

Behind Zhu Xuan, there were more than twenty carriages. He continued: "These are my newly developed weapons. They are enough to equip more than a thousand people. They are more powerful than the previous ones. You should have seen them during the military exercises. I’ll bring it to Lord Tie, Peiping needs it more, and over the Hetao, the next batch has arrived, I’ll have someone send it over.”

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Tie Xuan bowed again movedly.

Although they were working for Zhu Xuan, Zhu Xuan would never forget them and gave them enough conditions.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Ping An added: "The north is important. Let's leave first. Your Highness doesn't need to send you off again. This is not appropriate."

"Okay, I won't send it away."

Zhu Xuan smiled and waved goodbye to them.

They bowed to Zhu Xuan one last time, said goodbye to their families, and then boarded the ferry to leave.

They were going north to fight, so of course they wouldn't bring their families with them.

After the ferry left, Ping An's family came to say goodbye first, and then Tie Xuan's family, they were all respectful.

"Your Highness, we are going back first."

Tie Xuan's wife said softly.

Next to her, there is a daughter who is two or three years older than Zhu Xuan.

Zhu Xuan remembered that they would be sent to the Jiaofang Division by Zhu Di. In retrospect, they were still quite pitiful. But now that he is here, this outcome has completely changed. He smiled and said: "Goodbye."

"Your Highness is fine."

Tie Xuan's daughter Tie Xiuying laughed.

When Tie Xuan's wife heard this, she quickly said: "Don't be rude!"

"It doesn't matter!"

Zhu Xuan said nonchalantly.

They met briefly and soon went home.

Zhu Xuan thought of his future plans. The next thing he needed to do was to form a new army and solve the problems of merchants in Jiangnan and Fujian. He said to himself: "Let's go to the capital camp first!"

Select the soldiers needed by the new army, and then go to Suzhou Mansion to deal with those businessmen.

The latter is not a big problem.

In the case of the former, there is still a lot to be done in forming the new army.

"Who can help me lead the new army?"

Zhu Xuan was thinking.

Li Niu and Wang Er definitely can't, they have to stay with him.

The new army not only has a navy, but also an army.

In fact, the army is not bad, and any general will be suitable. However, in terms of the navy, not many generals of the Ming Dynasty are proficient in water warfare. In terms of maritime combat capabilities, many of them are not as good as Li Niu and Wang Er.

Zheng He understood, but as a eunuch, it was not convenient, not to mention that Zheng He had to go to sea on his behalf.

In two days, he would also arrange for Zheng He to go to the West and visit the American continent to see what good things he could bring back from America.

"Who can?"

"The generals who were great at water warfare in the Ming Dynasty are all gone now."

"For example, Liao Yongzhong, Liao Yong!"

Zhu Xuan suddenly thought that Liao Yong, Jinwu's avant-garde, was the grandson of Liao Yongzhong.

During the smallpox incident last year, he also handled many affairs with Zhu Xuan. It might be appropriate for him to lead the navy, as he should inherit Liao Yongzhong's talent.

"I asked Grandpa Huang for Liao Yong. I should be able to get it, right?"

Zhu Xuan was thinking about it while going to Jingying.

Leave the capital camp and go back to find Grandpa Huang to ask for someone.
