The prince's son Zhu Zhanji and the British duke Zhang Fu's younger brother Zhang Fu were both there. One is eight years old and the other is fourteen.
Yao Guangxiao asked Zhu Zhanji to interact with Xu Qin, so Zhu Di sent him over. Euphemistically called learning.
When the British Duke Zhang Fu heard that there was such a good thing, his brother was also idle, so he might as well come together.
Xu Qin has one head and two big heads. Now he regrets the deception in the Prince's Mansion. What do you want to learn from two little tails?
Learn how to play poker with a maid? Zhu Di won't peel the grass for himself? Thinking of this, his neck felt itchy.
The itching had gotten worse and worse in the past few days. He thought it was the poor sanitary conditions in Jinyiwei Prison that caused his skin to become inflamed.
He was young and didn't care, thinking it would be fine in a few days.
"I've been very busy recently. I really don't have anything to teach you, especially since I'm going to the military camp. It's very difficult and not suitable for children."
Xu Qin planned to get rid of the two people, but he didn't expect that Shenji Camp could have such a use.
"Cousin, didn't you say you would take me to the Shenji Camp to fire up the cannon? Why not do it today." Zhu Zhanji said excitedly.
Xu Qin really wanted to give himself a hard time. Why was he bragging about nothing?
"It's my eldest brother's territory. I'll go with you. My eldest brother told me to learn from you. If you can't learn it, you'll whip me with a whip and you won't give me a wife."
Zhang Fu said it directly. A very honest young man.
Xu Qin was helpless. If he said anything, he would throw water away. These two people must not be driven away by force. Then he would let them endure the hardship and leave on his own.
With this in mind, he brought them to Shenji Camp. This was the first time they came here since Liu Sheng was dismissed and Xu Qin took office.
Niulu, a thousand-household guard, was sent out on the left, Ouyang Ming, a thousand-household guard, was sent out on the right, Peng Shuan, a thousand-household guard, was sent out on the left, and Peicheng, a thousand-household guard, was sent out on the right.
It turns out that Youye Qianhu was the leader, but this Mongolian now followed Zheng He to the West with his former musketeers.
The poor guy could tell his fortune even if he didn't vomit to death on the boat. Mongolians had been galloping all their lives, and now they boarded the boat and went to the sea, which is wider than the grassland.
The Chinese army is Xu Qin himself.
Zhu Di is going to move the Shenji Camp recently, and Xu Qin will start training now that he is here. Scattered Peicheng's 1,000 men into the other 2,600 musketeers.
Then the training was unified, and the three thousand households trained together with the big soldiers, and Pei Cheng became the chief instructor.
"Get out of Shenji camp if you don't accept it." Xu Qin looked at the remaining three thousand households with a cold face.
Then the whole army training began. Because the cavalry general had transferred the platform, Xu Qin took it with him.
Pei Cheng took Xu Qin's order, as if he had obtained Shang Fang's sword, and began to torment these proud soldiers of the Shenji Battalion with their lives.
"The three brothers have also seen it. Who are the two people next to the young prince? The legitimate son of His Highness the Crown Prince and the biological brother of our coach Ding Guogong. They are all coming to learn from each other. Why do you still want to resist?"
Pei Cheng taught the remaining three people a lesson with his hands behind his back.
"You have all seen whether the young master has something. I, Pei Cheng, have been ordered to act. You three should think twice."
Pei Cheng said.
"Brother Peicheng, we are not dissatisfied. Please take care of us during training." Niu Lu was the first to relent.
Liu Sheng was left idle by His Majesty, and their coach, Mr. Britain, was furious with them. Now they still have a chance to correct themselves. Of course there is no reason to be dissatisfied.
"That's right, brother Peicheng, just practice. If anyone below is dissatisfied, we'll beat them. Don't worry, we will definitely practice well." Ouyang Ming also expressed his stance.
"Peng Shuan has long since accepted the offer, but if the young master doesn't give him a chance, there's no way for us to retaliate." Peng Shuan was more sincere and revealed all his trump cards.
"Since the three of you have said so, we are brothers. Don't worry, my young master is very easy to talk to. You will know when the staff meeting is held."
Pei Cheng also lowered his posture and mingled with the three of them.
Wang Timur was very excited to see Zhu Zhanji, who was his majesty's domestic slave. And Zhu Zhanji is his little master.
Naturally, he was allowed to try all the good things. Although he was only eight or nine years old, Zhu Zhanji's service to Wang Timur was very dull.
It seems that he is accustomed to it, and he responds gracefully and smoothly. It must be said that his family education and bloodline are strong, and he already has the attitude of an emperor.
As for Zhang Fu, he loved cannons and personally loaded, calibrated, and fired them. Those whose faces were blackened by gunpowder enjoyed it endlessly.
There are no men who don't like guns. They had a great time today.
"Okay, let's play and have fun. It's almost dark, go back to your homes, I won't let you eat."
Xu Qin felt that these two men had wasted dozens of kilograms of gunpowder, and it was almost time to leave.
"No, cousin, I want to attend the staff meeting. Don't treat me like a child. I'm here to learn my skills."
Zhu Zhanji said.
"Yes, me too, I won't leave." Zhang Fu said, holding his neck.
It's not that this child has a bad temper. He used too much gunpowder and medicine in the afternoon, and his neck was cramped by the shock. Everyone was scratching their necks.
"The staff meeting is after dinner. Who will serve you in the military camp? Go home quickly." Xu Qin said, and quickly sent the little ancestor away, and he also went home.
The maid at home is so sweet that she really doesn’t want to face these big guys who pick their feet.
"I have already informed my father that I will stay in the military camp today. Cousin, don't worry, Wang Timur is still here," Zhu Zhanji said.
"What the young master said is that this is the safest place. I will keep a vigil for you." Wang Timur's bones were numb.
"I have lived in a military camp for a long time and am used to it." Zhang Fu was not to be outdone.
Xu Qinxin said that I'm not used to it, but Zhu Zhanji was so insistent that he couldn't refuse anymore.
It's rare that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty still has the opportunity to learn this thing. Is this considered a contribution to the Ming Dynasty?
In the evening, people at the general banner and above gathered together for a meeting. The first is a discussion of training issues, as well as a discussion of some suggestions.
You can talk about anything, whether it's about training, weapons, or even life issues.
It turns out that those in the Shenji Camp didn't dare to say it, but the people under Pei Cheng's leadership dared to say it.
"Sir, many brothers down here are homesick. I want to write letters but can't find anyone. Can you find some scholars to come and help write letters?"
One of the general flags said.
"Xu Hao, write it down. This matter needs to be resolved. Not only do you have to write a letter, but you can also send money. Stabilizing the morale of the military is more important than anything else. But after you finish writing the letter, you must check it with hundreds of households first. Don't say anything that shouldn't be said."
Xu Qin asked Xu Hao to write down the incident.
"But I want to write a letter to my wife at home. Do I need to show it to hundreds of households?" Zongqi asked sheepishly.
"Well, you have to read it. When you write, just choose the ones that can be read. Let the brothers understand. Of course, it doesn't matter if you write the ones that can't be read. Anyway, your wife doesn't know that Baihu has read it."
Xu Qin said with a smile. The whole venue laughed along with it.
"Sir, it's too laborious to load gunpowder and lead shot. Is there any way?" One of the hundreds of households asked this question.
"Oh, I forgot about this. Does anyone else have any solutions?" Xu Qin didn't rush to tell his answer.
"Sir, I have a way. That is to roll up the gunpowder and lead shot with straw paper in advance. When firing the gun, bite off one end with your teeth, put it in the ignition chamber, and stuff the rest into the barrel."
One of the general banners stood up and said.
This suggestion immediately aroused everyone's discussion.
"Admiral Wang, it seems that we need to buy straw paper. This method is currently the best way to increase the reloading speed." Xu Qin said to Wang Timur next to him.
"Did you come up with this method?" Xu Qin then asked.
"Sir, no, it was a soldier below us who came up with it. His pork seller often rolls pork with leaves." The commander-in-chief said.
"Okay, very good. He was promoted to Xiaoqi and was rewarded with twenty taels of silver. If you record your merit once, you will be rewarded with ten taels of silver. Don't use treasure coins to deal with him."
Xu Qin was able to explain it to the secretary.
Zhu Zhanji watched it all night.
"Twenty taels, you can't earn this in one year as a soldier. Is the reward too heavy?" Zhu Zhanji asked Xu Qin after the staff meeting.
"No, just the opposite. How much can a method of increasing the reloading speed of firecrackers increase the combat power of the entire team? This is already very light.
Moreover, thousands of dollars are spent on horse bones. With this stimulation, the people below will continue to promote weapon improvements and breakthroughs in tactics.
You and I are not gods and cannot think of everything. But if people who actually do things can think for us, we will become gods.
But remember never to believe the rhetoric, but to believe those who actually do the work. Because hard work is the only criterion for testing right and wrong. "
Xu Qin patted Zhu Zhanji on the shoulder and said.
"Why don't you pat me on the shoulder?" Zhang Fu was actually jealous.
"Because the things your shoulders will bear in the future will not be that heavy." Xu Qin said with a smile.
Wang Timur watched from behind, and suddenly had a strange feeling that the young prince was teaching the future emperor.
Will he be the future imperial master of the Ming Dynasty?
