Using marching to train troops is very good at building cohesion and stress resistance.
Moreover, Zhu Jun also wants to use these few days to improve his image so that it will be easy to discipline them in the future!
In the past three days, Zhu Jun had blood blisters on the soles of his feet and the pain on both sides of his thighs, but he could only endure it.
On the fifth day, everyone gradually got used to the intensity of the march, and Zhu Jun began to speed up and lengthen the march.
Although everyone was tired and exhausted, they had no complaints.
Even at night, they had to recite the disciplines set by Zhu Jun and learn to read and write.
On the morning of the eighth day, when the army approached Fengyang City, these people had already improved greatly.
Soon, Zhu Jun saw the outline of Fengyang City.
Fengyang used to be just a small town, but now the city has high walls and thick walls. I don't know if I thought it was an important pass.
This city wall was also built according to the specifications of Yingtian City Wall. It was tall and long, and Zhongdu was in the center of the capital.
Wu Lang, the Marquis of Jiangyin, Xue Yang, the senior official, and Xu An, the prefect of Fengyang, along with Fengyang officials, were waiting at the city gate early.
However, everyone was stunned when they saw Zhu Jun wearing light armor, carrying a heavy load, and looking dusty.
Wu Lang glanced at the other two and hurriedly stepped forward, "Wu Lang, a humble minister, has met His Highness King Wu!"
Others also came over in a hurry to pay their respects.
Zhu Jun glanced at them and said with a smile: "You are all old acquaintances, so there is no need for customary etiquette. I am ordered to return to Zhongdu this time. I am afraid there will be many places to trouble you in the future!"
"Whatever your Highness said, if necessary, I will go up to the mountain of swords or go down into the sea of fire without any hesitation!" Wu Lang said, patting his chest.
Xue Yang smiled and said, "I have already held a banquet to welcome His Highness..."
Zhu Jun nodded, turned to Li Ji and said domineeringly: "Take the brothers and enter the city in an orderly manner, and do not disturb the people!"
"Yes, Your Highness!" Li Jiba replied.
"Please!" Wu Lang made a gesture of invitation, and then everyone embraced Zhu Jun and entered Fengyang City.
The Fengyang City in my memory was not as big as it is now, but... there were not many pedestrians on the road, and even beggars were hard to see.
Even people walking on the road look relaxed, and you can see a few fat people every now and then.
Zhu Jun withdrew his gaze and sneered secretly in his heart.
Along the way, Wu Lang and others were introducing various things about Fengyang to Zhu Jun, but Zhu Jun was not interested at all.
Soon he arrived at Zhongdu, where his residence was, "I will take a shower first, and then go to the Huaixi Governor's Mansion later!"
After saying that, he walked into Zhongdu with his people in a swaggering manner.
Wu Lang glanced at Xue Yang, shook his head, and said, "Let's not follow him. Anyway, we have all the guards and maids inside!"
Xue Yang nodded and couldn't help but said: "I don't know what your majesty means by asking him to come over."
"No matter what it means, we must take good care of King Wu, what do you think?"
Xue Yang stroked his beard and said with a smile, "That's right!"
At this time, Zhu Jun entered Zhongdu and couldn't help but sigh at the beauty and greatness of Zhongdu.
The Yingtian Palace was very rough, and Lao Zhu thought it would be enough, but Fengyang Zhongdu was extremely luxurious and luxurious.
It covers an area of about 6,000 acres, which is only one-third smaller than the Yingtian Palace.
Thinking about the projects that Daye has supervised over the years, it has cost a lot, but Daye still has enough energy left. It seems that Lao Zhu must have ripped off the fattest piece of flesh from Meng Yuan, otherwise he would not be able to bear this at all. kind of expense.
Next is Zhang Zhou, and Chen Han is the poorest, occupying the land south of Lingnan, and the Kingdom of Tian Abundance is shared with Zhang Zhou.
However, he felt a little uncomfortable when he thought that there might be a security detail added here.
I even felt that it would be a pity to give up such a good palace because of this.
But with so few people in Fengyang, it would be too difficult to hold up the title of Zhongdu.
It is extremely difficult to revitalize Fengyang!
Zhu Jun sighed secretly in his heart and had a headache.
Xu Miaojin and others also followed behind him. It was the first time for them to see such a magnificent palace and they couldn't help but marvel.
We arrived at Xihua Gate and settled down. This place belongs to the East Palace. Other places are still under construction and the project has not been completed.
"You can choose any house to live in!" Zhu Jun told him and ignored it.
Wu Lang and others had already arranged for maids to serve here, and they had already prepared bath water and other supplies.
He didn't care about Xu Miaojin. After washing up, he took Li Jiba and others to the Huaixi Governor's Mansion for an appointment.
And Wu Lang and others have been waiting here.
After Zhu Jun entered the house, good wine and delicious food were served.
Wu Lang asked Zhu Jun to sit at the top, held a wine glass and said some words to welcome Zhu Jun, "Fengyang will be more prosperous and prosperous in the future under the leadership of His Highness King Wu!"
But Zhu Jun did not accept these words, but smiled and said to Wu Lang: "Jiangyin Marquis, I came to Fengyang this time, firstly to supervise the construction of Zhongdu, and secondly to train troops and lead Fengyang to prosperity. That is Xu The matter of the prefect has nothing to do with me.
This king doesn't like trouble.
Besides, with people like you here in Fengyang, can you still use me? "
Wu Lang frowned slightly. He always felt that there was something in Zhu Jun's words, but then he thought about it, what kind of city could he, a mad king, have?
"Your Highness has given you too much praise!"
"I have not given you too much praise. I walked around the city and saw that it is prosperous and the central capital is so beautifully built. It is really amazing.
You have all worked hard. When the time comes, I will report it to my father and ask for your credit! Zhu Jun said with a smile.
Everyone quickly stood up and cupped their hands, "Thank you so much, His Highness King Wu!"
Xue Yang waved, followed by two beautiful maids in their 28s and kneeling beside Zhu Jun, "Serve your highness well!"
Zhu Jun looked at the two of them and couldn't help but sneer in his heart, "Hey, is this a beauty trap?"
What Wu Lang said just now was a test, how could he not hear it?
If he had just said what he wanted to do in Fengyang as soon as he came up, wouldn't he be a fool?
How can these people do anything if they are on guard?
The only way is to paralyze them first, then slowly start investigating, and then... give them a sharp blow.
"These two little girls are good!" Zhu Jun smiled and picked up the wine, "Come on, gentlemen, drink to win!"
Everyone raised their glasses and drank.
The banquet lasted for nearly two hours before dispersing.
Zhu Jun was also drunk and was helped into the carriage by Li Jiba. Then Wu Lang and others personally sent Zhu Jun to the gate of Zhongdu, and the two maids who were waiting for Zhu Jun also went in together.
"Haha, it's said that King Wu is not a womanizer, but his anxious look just now doesn't look like he was just pretending!" Wu Lang sneered.
"How many men are not lewd?" Xue Yang said with a smile: "However, it should be confirmed by now that he is just overdoing it. After all, he is old and has no feud, so it can't be justified.
Let him guard the border. Do you think he can guard the border well? "
