When Zhu Yuanzhang saw that the envoy of Mengyuan was intimidated by the Xuanwu Guards led by Qin Mu, he felt incomparably carefree. He was even happier than when he defeated Mengyuan in the northern expedition.
In his opinion, even if he defeated Meng Yuan a hundred times, as long as they won once, it would be a disaster for Great Ming!
Moreover, he was even more worried about whether the future ruler of Great Ming would have the ability to tame this ferocious beast on the grasslands!
Now that he saw Haohai Dayu panicking, he knew what was going on.
At the very least, his eldest grandson did not have to worry about Meng Yuan. Instead, Meng Yuan had to worry about his eldest grandson's cavalry!
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was in a good mood, didn't need the Honglu Minister to pass on any messages. He walked up to Haohai Dayu and showed off.
This caused Blue Jade to purse her lips.
Isn't it just that you have a good grandson? Look at how beautiful you are to Butcher Zhu. Your mouth is almost crooked from laughing!
Although Lan Yu was cursing in her heart, her ears were already pricked up.
No matter what, Big Ming still had the final say in this old man Zhu.
Whether his grandson could become the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty depended on this old man's attitude.
"Haohai Dayu, I wonder if our Great Ming's youth army can enter your eyes!”
Hearing this, Haohai Dayu hurriedly bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Respected Great Ming Emperor!"
"Your Great Ming's youth army has allowed me to see Great Ming's future!”
"At the very least, it's impossible for my grandson to beat you, Big Ming!”
"But we Prairies people will not admit defeat easily. One day, we Prairies people will restore the glory of our ancestor Genghis Khan!”
Hearing Haohai Dayu's words, Zhu Yuanzhang roared happily towards the sky.
"You're a practical person, hahaha!”
"However, if I can defeat you once, I can defeat you a hundred times!”
Facing Zhu Yuanzhang's mockery, Haohai Dayu was not willing to be outdone.
"Respected Great Ming Emperor!"
"Although the young army that just passed by was in an orderly formation and strictly disciplined, they did not panic even in the face of the sudden hail.”
"But he's only the Wei Army. No matter how strong he is, he can't possibly affect the entire Great Ming.”
"Moreover, we were just advancing in formation just now. This doesn't mean anything.”
"If they still perform well in actual combat drills, only then will the foreign officials think that they are real soldiers!”
"Otherwise, it's just a superficial display!”
Haohai Dayu's eyes were extremely sharp. He only needed to look at the Xuanwu Guards once to know that this group of people had never experienced battle formations.
Therefore, even if they were well-trained and orderly, they would definitely show their cowardice when it came to military operations.
At that time, not only could they strike the morale of the Ming Dynasty, they could also use this to mock the Ming Emperor. It could be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
If he could make the Ming Emperor angry and punish this young general, it would be a pleasant surprise.
"This…"
Hearing Haohai Dayu's words, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but hesitate.
To be honest, he was already very surprised and delighted that Qin Mu could train a group of newly recruited youths to such a standard in just twenty days.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang had no confidence in the actual operation of the army.
Even though Qin Mu's Black Tortoise Guards were a firearms battalion, all of them were handshooters who didn't need much training.
However, no matter how simple a handgun was, it would still require a few months of practice before it could be loaded with gunpowder, pellets, and so on.
In such a short period of time, not to mention aiming and shooting, it was already good enough to ensure that the gunpowder could be loaded and fired.
Therefore, facing Haohai Dayu's provocation, Zhu Yuanzhang did not dare to accept the challenge.
"There's no rush for actual combat!"
"Everyone has been busy the entire morning. Let's arrange for everyone to eat first. We'll carry out the actual combat drill in the afternoon!”
Haohai Dayu bowed respectfully.
"Everything will be arranged by His Majesty the Great Ming Emperor!”
While everyone on the city wall was busy eating lunch, Zhu Yuanzhang led the two tigers and sneakily sneaked to Qin Mu's temporary encampment.
"Eldest Sun!"
"Well done, you've made Grandpa proud!”
Qin Mu suddenly saw Zhu Yuanzhang, and his face was filled with surprise.
"Grandpa Huang!"
"Why are you here?"
"You haven't eaten yet, right? Why don't you eat with us?”
"Eat!"
"Prepare a set of cutlery for us!"
Qin Mu gave Zhu Yuanzhang a box of heated canned meat and a jar of rice wine.
"Grandpa Huang, the military is simple and crude. There's really nothing good to eat. You can just make do with it. Let's go to the House of Taste another day. I'll treat you to a seafood feast!”
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the canned meat in his hand, then at the clear rice wine in the jar, and praised.
"Tsk tsk!"
"There's wine and meat. You brat, you still say it's simple and crude. You're really asking for a beating!”
"Us soldiers of Great Ming might not even be able to eat such good food before charging into battle, let alone during normal times!”
"You brat, you really don't know how lucky you are. You actually have the cheek to say that it's simple!”
"He really deserves a beating!"
Zhu Yuanzhang took his chopsticks and knocked Qin Mu's head symbolically.
Qin Mu didn't dodge and just laughed foolishly as he was beaten up.
"Grandpa Huang!"
"You must have been watching the military exercise with the emperor on the city tower just now, right?”
"Did you see our Xuanwu Guard's three-section blaster?”
As the muskets of Great Ming were similar in length to the rifles of the later generations, Qin Mu directly copied the three-section spear splitting movements of the later generations during the military parade. He also combined the characteristics of Great Ming's muskets and made minor adjustments.
In general, it was the same as the steps in the future. The first step was to push the spear forward and hold the spear. The second step was to turn the right hand over. The third step was to swing the spear and shake the head.
It was this action that stunned all the civil and military officials on the city wall. It simply broke through the "handsome" horizon!
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Qin Mu with interest.
"What is a three-section blunderbuss?"
Qin Mu picked up a musket beside him and demonstrated it to Zhu Yuanzhang.
Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang clapped his hands excitedly.
"I see it!"
"Eldest Sun!"
"Your actions are too beautiful, especially with more than 300 of you. You used it all at once, scaring the envoys of the foreign vassal states silly, hahaha!”
"What?"
Qin Mu asked in astonishment.
"Grandpa Huang, there's a foreign envoy in this military exercise?”
"What vassal states are there? Are there Mengyuan, North Korea, and so on?”
When Zhu Yuanzhang saw Qin Mu rarely reveal his childish side, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.
"Yes, yes, there are all of them!"
"Especially the Mengyuan envoy, he was full of praise for you!”
"By the way, how's your combat ability?”
"Can you use firearms now?”
"Meng Yuan's envoy led our…our Ming Emperor's army, saying that he wanted to see you guys in action.”
Qin Mu patted his chest and promised.
"No problem!"
"Isn't it just shooting? This thing can be used for two to three days!”
"We've been practicing for more than twenty days. I guarantee that we'll be able to shoot skillfully!”
