But this does not prevent Zhu Youxiao from showing off his boss's money in front of these people.

After everyone sat down in order of age, Zhu Youxiao carefully examined everyone's expressions before he began to say: "In the coming days, I will participate in training with you, but I will not come often because of other government affairs. Training here.”

As he said that, Zhu Youxiao looked at Ma Xianglin on his left: "Ma Xianglin, you are the oldest here. You will serve as the deputy captain. When I am not around, you will perform the duties of the captain!"

"I obey the decree!"

Ma Xianglin stood up and replied.

Then, Zhu Youxiao added: "Since everyone will be classmates in the same team from now on, let's introduce ourselves and state our names and what we are good at."

Although Zhu Youxiao asked them to introduce themselves, it was actually Zhu Youxiao who wanted to know their respective strengths.

Ma Xianglin stood up first: "Your Majesty, I have Ma Xianglin, who is good at shooting."

Then, Chen Xin also stood up and replied: "Your Majesty, Chen Xin is good at handling ships, good at reading the wind direction, and can speak Japanese and Japanese."

Then, Guo Mu also replied: "Your Majesty, I, Guo Mu, I don't know what I am good at, but I like to settle accounts and make money, and I like to read medical books and treat people."

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but ask Guo Mu: "Then why did General Guo send you to the Ming Dynasty Lecture Hall?"

"That's right, this is a place to train generals, not doctors and bosses."

Chen Xin followed.

Zhu Youxiao rolled his eyes at Chen Xin again.

Guo Mu replied: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the main reason is that my brothers are older and serve as officials in the border towns, and Your Majesty has decreed that our Guo family should choose a son to come to Beijing to guard you. My father said that this grace cannot be missed in vain, so He forced me to come, saying that if I didn't come, I would be beaten to death, so that I had to get up and rush to the capital before I could even get Xiaoying from Wanchun Tower in Datong."

As soon as Guo Mu mentioned Xiaoying from Wanchunlou, Chen Xin's eyes lit up. He was about to say something romantic about how there were many beauties in Datong, but when he thought that the emperor just rolled his eyes at him, he had to shut up and insist. He held back these words.

Zhu Youxiao just nodded after hearing what Guo Mu said, and then said: "The others continue."

At this time, Luo Zhijie stood up: "Your Majesty, I would like to express my gratitude to you, Luo Zhijie, for being good at handling firearms!"

Zhou Yuji then stood up and replied: "Your Majesty, I, Zhou Yuji, don't know what I am good at, but I like to train troops and fight to kill enemies."

Zhu Youxiao smiled and nodded, looking at Lu Xiangsheng who stood up immediately.

Lu Xiangsheng said: "Your Majesty, I am Lu Xiangsheng, I am good at riding."

"You are a good judge, and you are also good at writing articles. You are both civil and military. It is not easy."

Zhu Youxiao said something.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Tongchang stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I, Zhang Tongchang, have no talents but love to study."

Zhu Youxiao nodded and looked at Niu Bing who stood up.

Niu Bingze said directly: "Your Majesty, Niu Bing, I am very powerful. People in the fort have always said that I am the strongest."

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao especially looked at Niu Bing's arms, which were as thick as the legs of a cow. He believed it a bit, smiled, and looked at the last one: "Then you are Huang Degong? What are you good at?"

"Your Majesty, I am brave and not afraid of death!"

Huang Degong replied.

Everyone else followed suit and smiled.

Zhu Youxiao believed what Huang Degong said.

Because he remembered that in history, Huang Degong was indeed famous for his amazing courage.

The reason why Huang Degong was able to join the army was because his family was poor. Then he broke into the slave camp, killed two Tatars, and received a reward of fifty taels of silver. From then on, he was favored by the manager Xiong Tingbi and appointed as an officer of the standard camp. At that time, , Huang Degong was only twelve years old.

Later, during the Southern Ming Dynasty, Zuo Liangyu sent 800,000 troops to the south of the Yangtze River in the name of "Qingjun Side", with an actual force of 600,000 troops, hoping to seize the power of the Hongguang Dynasty. However, Huang Degong dared to lead his troops to resist in Jiujiang, and defeated the Zuo Army's 600,000 troops.

From this, it is enough to see that Huang Degong is indeed very courageous.

"Very good! I hope to become a great person in the future!"

Zhu Youxiao laughed as he spoke, and then looked at Chen Xin: "Chen Xin, what did you want to say when you opened and closed your mouth just now?"

Chen Xin touched his head sheepishly: "Nothing?"

Zhu Youxiao suddenly slammed the table and said sternly: "Say! Why are you hesitating!"



Next, the training officially began, and Zhu Youxiao also temporarily banned the Sutra Banquet. Instead, he and Ma Xianglin and other students ran exercises and practiced formation every morning, learned command from Guo Hu, Qin Liangyu, etc. in the afternoon, and discussed the current situation or various types of events together in the evening. wars in history.

In the blink of an eye, it was early November in the first year of Taichang.

The weather is naturally getting colder.

Before the old snow has melted, the new snow has covered the ground with a vast expanse of white.

And on this day, when Zhu Youxiao and his classmates continued to run and exercise on the snow and mud in Xiyuan facing the rising sun, in the West City of the Capital, a continuous stream of prison wagon wheels was coming, and in the white snow Snow ditches several inches deep were dug out on the ground, and the prisoners sitting in the prison cars were all prisoners wearing white prison uniforms, with shackles around their necks, and expressions of despair on their faces.

When they arrived at the West Market, the place where prisoners were executed in the Ming Dynasty, the place was already filled with court officials wearing all kinds of brightly colored clothes, including flying fish suits, python suits, etc., and all kinds of drag strips competed with each other in a colorful and majestic manner, such as The colorful waves show their dignity as the emperor's servants.

But now, these members of the inner court were all holding their breath and looking at their colleagues in the prison car. They were secretly glad that they had abided by the rules and did not make friends with people from outside the court just for the sake of various benefits.

There were a pile of mahogany coffins laid out behind the execution place, and Wei Zhongxian stood in front of the pile of coffins. After the first batch of prisoners were brought up, he walked up to the prisoners wearing a three-mountain tile hat: " You, like ours, are all the servants of the Emperor, but you are cheating on others and acting as spies for outsiders. This type of disloyalty to your master cannot be tolerated even by God. Naturally, you must be punished. However, the Emperor I am benevolent, and for the sake of being a master and a servant, I will give each of you a coffin!"

As he said that, Wei Zhongxian looked up at the sky and choked up: "It can be seen that the emperor is so kind. You must remember this grace! Even if you go underground, you must remember the emperor's kindness! But you have brought it upon yourself for what you have ended up like today. , I can’t blame the emperor, come and atone for your sins!”

After Wei Zhongxian said this, some members of the inner court really started to sob and cry.

After all, the concept of family heads in this era is still very deep.

Many other members of the inner court who were watching and were not found to have colluded with outsiders shed tears because of this. They all lamented that the emperor was really benevolent, but some of them were not living up to expectations!

It was noon.

Wei Zhongxian shouted: "The time has come, kill!"

Immediately, a row of Jinyi guards responsible for handling the inner court personnel came out holding Yanling knives.

A group of inner court personnel were pressed on the execution platform.

"Your Majesty! I'm sorry for you, I will serve you loyally in the next life!"

Eunuch Li Yu cried out in pain.

At this time, Jin Yiwei's knife had already struck down.

Li Yu's head is in a different place.

At the same time, other Jin Yiwei also waved their swords, click! Click! Heads fell to the ground.

Blood spurted out continuously.
