Chapter 129: Joy and Sorrow

Zhu Linmiao looked at the establishment of the camp in detail. They used a way of formation that seemed to be inherited from the Qi family's army, but in order to match the Morris phalanx, some adjustments were also made.

In general, the nearly 12,000 officers and men of the whole army were divided into 11 battalions, each of which was commanded by a commander-in-chief.

A battalion is divided into three bureaus, which have three divisions, three flags, and three teams of 12 people each.

There were nearly 120 people in each division, which was exactly the same as the company formation in Morris's phalanx. Therefore, after the officers and Gu Yanwu sent by the Long Guard Army to the Broken Battalion in charge of training were studied, the main infantry was divided into the Gun Division and the Spear Division.

In addition, due to the large number of types of firecrackers in the camp, from the heavy bird guns of eleven coins, to the medium-sized bird guns of six coins, and then to the bird guns of three coins, they are all used. Therefore, each gun division is also subdivided into three kinds of bird guns: light, medium and heavy.

When forming a phalanx or horizontal team, these divisions are the basic units. On each side of a pikemen division are placed half a spearmen division, and the entire battle phalanx is arranged in turn.

As for the cavalry, due to the limited number of horses, the broken battalion only had one battalion and one bureau of cavalry, with a total of about 1,300 men and horses. However, half of them are the lancers of the "Iron Leopard" Tie Dake, and their combat effectiveness is not weak, especially against the cavalry, the lance is much more lethal than the saber.

It should be said that the preparation plan is still relatively scientific, and since the camp is basically autonomous by the former rebels, Zhu Linmiao is not willing to put his beak too much, but only tells Zhen Zhen to practice strictly.

Now the morale of the Broken Battalion is very high, and with scientific and rigorous training, it is enough to be qualified for the position of assistant to the Dragon Guard.

Zhu Linmiao also planned to wait for the current war to end, and then transfer the main generals of the captive camp to study in the Royal Officers' Academy, and increase their guidance and matching, believing that the combat effectiveness of this army can be further improved.

The reorganized Dragon Guard Army and the Broken Prisoner Battalion set out on their journey early the next morning, and there was still a long way to go.

Fukyo Yeonpyeongfu.

Nanping County, in the temporary palace of Longwu.

Zhu Yujian was anxiously pacing back and forth in the courtyard, and the weather began to get hotter, and the beads of sweat on his forehead and face kept rolling down.

After a moment, he simply rolled up his sleeves and kept looking in the direction of the big house.

At noon, a palace maid finally ran over excitedly, and shouted from a distance, "Long live congratulations, long live congratulations, it's a dragon!" ”

Several palace maids and eunuchs ran to the front, knelt on the ground, and continued: "It's a prince, mother and son are safe!" ”

Zhu Yujian was suddenly overjoyed, glanced at Pang Tianshou, waved at the palace maid and eunuch who reported the good news, and laughed: "Reward!" Reward! ”

Then he ran towards the delivery room without looking back, and Pang Tianshou was so frightened that he hurriedly followed.

Zhu Yujian waved his hands to the sky as he walked, tears flashing in his eyes, "Thank you, I have a grandson!" I have a son! Ha ha! ”

It's no wonder that he is like this, his father is not happy with his grandfather, that is, the old Tang King, and has been locked in prison. He spent time in prison since he was a child, and almost starved to death. It was not until the death of the old Tang King that he was able to regain his freedom in his twenties.

But it didn't take long for him to be locked up in the Fengyang wall by Chongzhen because of the matter of privately leading the army to Qin Wang, so he didn't do much until he was in his forties.

This time the queen gave birth to the dragon seed, how could he not like it when he was old?

After a while, the midwife washed the prince clean, wrapped him in swaddling clothes and took it out to Zhu Yujian, and he was so excited that he didn't know how to put it down.

"Reward! Everyone in the palace is rewarded! ”

After the prince was taken to feed, Huang Mingjun and Zheng Chenggong came to congratulate, and Zhu Yujian gradually regained his calm.

He waited for a few courtiers to finish the auspicious words, and immediately instructed Huang Mingjun: "Draft the will." My sister-in-law Lin Yuan. "The name of his son was something he had come up with years earlier.

"It is a good omen from heaven for me, and the hope of peace and security. It is awarded the canonical treasure, established as the crown prince, and is in the East Palace, with the rule of peace and ten thousand years, and the heart of the world. Choose an auspicious day to carry the ceremony, and I would like to inform heaven and earth, the temple, and the shrine ......"

The appointment of the crown prince was a big deal in the Ming Dynasty. When several ministers in the room heard this, they immediately knelt down and shouted: "The emperor is sage! Hooray, hooray, hooray! ”

Two days later, Ying Tianfu also got the news.

The emperor was overjoyed to have a dragon son and became the crown prince, and all the ministers of the imperial party and the neutral faction flocked to the Nanbian Palace, and even some officials of the Zheng Party who were not so loyal came to congratulate him.

For a time, the small Yanping Mansion was crowded.

It wasn't until the time of Shen that all the ministers were ready to leave, and Huang Daozhou had to meet Longwu in person.

He was about to talk about some important political affairs recently, when he saw a eunuch hurriedly running in as if he had lost his soul, fell to his knees, looked at Huang Daozhou and Huang Mingjun who were standing aside, and then looked at Longwu.

Zhu Yujian said: "Both of them are my ministers, what is the matter!" ”

"Your Majesty, an urgent report just sent from northern Fujian! The captive soldiers were divided into two roads, one way to Jiangxi Guangxin Mansion, the other way to Fujing, the forward Turai Department has reached Xianxia Pass! ”

Zhu Yujian was taken aback, how could the thieves come so quickly? Is Quzhou Mansion a no-man's land?!

Huang Mingjun waved his hand to let the eunuch retreat, and said to Zhu Yujian: "Holy Lord, don't worry. Although Xianxia Guan General Shi Fu is Zheng Zhilong's person, it is a matter of social safety, and he does not dare not do his best. Xianxia is dangerous, even if there is an army of 100,000, it will not be broken for half a year. ”

On the side, Huang Daozhou remembered Chen Wang's recitals some time ago, he was the first assistant of the cabinet, and he had seen these recitals. He immediately muttered: "Your Majesty, King Chen once said that Xianxia Pass is unstable. The minister thought that Chen Wang must have gotten some news, so he had this concern, and he should pay attention to it. ”

Huang Mingjun also nodded and said: "The minister also thinks that the imperial driver should leave Fujian as soon as possible, and His Majesty can follow the plan of the general with the surname of the country and drive west out of Shanguan." ”

Huang Daozhou shook his head when he heard this: "No." The captives have gone to Guangxin, and their goal is to pass Shanguan, in case the thieves get the pass first, the holy drive is in danger. In fact, the Qing army was still far away from Shanguan, and had not even entered Jiangxi, but in this era of underdeveloped communications, Huang Daozhou did not know this information at all, so he could only plan in the safest way.

"Your Majesty should go south to Tingzhou, enter Guangdong, and then detour to the west of the Yangtze River is a foolproof strategy!"

After he finished speaking, he saw Longwu's reluctant look, and Huang Mingjun beside him hurriedly told him about Diao Min's stopping, and the emperor's unwillingness to leave the collection of books and the fact that he did not want to leave Jiancong.

Huang Daozhou frowned, and said in his heart that he was reluctant to give up a few broken books, but he didn't dare to directly accuse the emperor.

Outside Longwu's temporary imperial study, the officials of Daohe broke out into laughter for some reason, and Huang Daozhou suddenly stroked his hand and said, "The minister has a plan to help the saint get out." ”
