You can see the magnificent city wall of Yi Naiji less than 30 miles from Xifengkou. It is because it is too close to Xifengkou that this place has always been a place that military strategists must fight for.

If it can occupy it, it can attack and defend, and it will also have great economic benefits.

Yi Naiji can be used as a commodity distribution center for development, and coupled with the advantages of its unique geographical location close to water sources.

The Ming Dynasty must not give up, but it is a gathering. By the same token, the Northern Yuan Dynasty naturally could not give up easily.

This is why Wang Baobao finally made up his mind to gather heavy troops and must take down Yi Naiji. It was not just because of face issues, but also more consideration was the overall situation.

The two sides gathered here, but the troops and horses were not moving, and the food and grass came first.

The first thing to prepare is naturally all kinds of weapons, armor, food, military and horses, etc.

From inside and outside the Great Wall, a formation like a long snake was arranged, and the civilians were transporting it non-stop.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang loved the people as much as his son, not everything in war can be humanized.

Every civilian has his own task, how long it takes to deliver the supplies to where to take them. It is normal for one person to carry a hundred kilograms of things to walk for about 10 miles.

This is why there are always people who are exhausted on the road on the battlefield, and that's why.

If you have a slightly weaker physical strength, how can you run down?

Wang Erhu was one of the civilians recruited by the Ming Dynasty.

The original name of Wang Erhu was Wang Chuerer. After all, during the Yuan Dynasty, the Han people had no right to name them.

What's more, ordinary people don't have the culture or money to name their children.

He simply named his children by date, for example, Zhu Yuanzhang's original name was Zhu Chongba, his brother was Zhu Shier, Zhu Laoliu, etc.

However, when the Ming Dynasty ruled, China's orthodox return, and the people naturally began to name according to the rules.

However, Wang Erhu's family did not have a family tree, and even the clan relatives were not clear about it.

There is no requirement to name it, so I just call it Erhu.

Although Wang Erhu is young, he is not a military householder, he is still very strong.

After several days of continuous development, even the civilians can bear more than others, so their performance is naturally very superior.

Their captain also likes Wang Erhu very much.

The two were originally fellow countrymen, and his father once gave the money to the captain. Please ask the captain to take care of Wang Erhu on the road.

So the captain took this opportunity to recommend Wang Erhu up.

If this is a chance to be incorporated into a regular army and to prove one or two military achievements, it is also an excellent thing for their family.

After all, in this year of Hongwu, those who were able to join the army were all military household relations, and military households were similar to a small nobleman now.

If you can become a military household, you will not only have larger fields, but also more benefits.

At this time, the benefits of military households were still very good, after all, they all worked hard for the Ming Dynasty.

However, by the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the military household registration system gradually began to collapse.

There is no saying that all kinds of benefits are given. The system benefits naturally exist, but in practice, these money and food have been embezzled by the first-level officers who are in charge of the army.

The so-called "eating empty salary, occupying military fields, stealing military rations, etc. are really common.

This is also the reason why a large number of refugees later appeared.

Not only the fields of ordinary people were occupied by nobles, but also those of the soldiers were also occupied by officers.

Those military households have no money and have to pay money and grain to the officers and the country every month.

How could they stand there and wait for death?

The only way out is to leave your home and find a way out.

This is also the reason why so many people become refugees.

If there are more refugees, it will naturally have a very turbulent impact on society.

Anyone who raises his arms and shouts, those who cannot survive will naturally follow them.

Since the Qin Dynasty, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's words about kings, princes, generals and ministers are deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Rebellion has always been the best choice for ordinary people who cannot survive. Didn’t Zhu Yuanzhang also start his business by rebelling?

Of course, there is no possibility of rebellion now.

The Ming Dynasty was still booming. With Zhu Yuanzhang's rudder, the people below dared not do too much.

At least in the early years of Hongwu, it was unrealistic to enclose land. Even if the nobles dared to enclose land, they would be unable to escape death.

Because of this, the people still think that military households are very good.

Although we need to fight along with each other, our average age is only in our early 30s these days.

You said that living a lifetime is just for your own children to have a better future?

If you can have enough food and clothing to become a nobleman and have a chance to become a soldier, who will not do it?

At least it is easier than studying, as the common people think so.

This is also why Zhu Yuanzhang was able to replenish troops continuously, and those who win the hearts of the people won the world. So what is the hearts of the people?

The people's hearts are money, food and drink, and people can live with dignity. This is the people's hearts, and this is the truth.

Because of his outstanding performance, Wang Erhu was quickly recommended by his fellow villagers.

Then he went to the front army to serve as a soldier, and naturally he became a soldier, so his household registration would also be transferred to a military household registration. Fortunately, the procedures were not very troublesome.

Wang Erhu had no experience in joining the army before, and now he is in a tense source of troops. Facing the 100,000 troops of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, Yi Naiji only gathered 50,000.

Of course, if there is anything that can be used by Mingjun, I will use it quickly.

Not to mention training, although Wang Erhu often works very hard on weekdays, he knows nothing about it by dancing swords and guns, obeying instructions, military formations, etc.

Fortunately, there are new methods of training, and the training method of Liao King Zhu Qi has been proven to be very powerful in practice.

Moreover, most generals also praised them after using them.

The most important thing about Zhu Qi's military training is to enforce orders and enhance collective sense of honor.

This was something that could not be achieved in the training methods of the Ming Dynasty, especially the sense of collective honor.

If a soldier has no honor, he will naturally have no motivation to become stronger.

At least, Wang Erhu, the new recruit, had no honor when he first joined the army.

His only idea was to get more money. In the future, his son could also get a job as a military household.

However, after two weeks in the barracks, after a series of training, I not only followed the instructions to understand military formations and flags, etc.

The most important thing is to sit by the bonfire together at night and chat with everyone.

Listen to the predecessors sharing their battle stories and the fearless spirit of giving their own to the Ming Dynasty.

Loyalty and His Highness the unchanging thoughts of His Highness the Liao King, etc., when there are too many people, it is very easy to affect others, let alone such purposeful things.

Wang Erhu had already thoughts of attending the bonfire party for a few days. He had to kill the enemy bravely, serve the country, and be loyal to His Highness the King of Liao.

Although this idea is not particularly strong, at least one seed has been planted.

After the delay is delayed, I believe that Wang Erhu can become the kind of hero who stands up at critical moments, spares no effort to defend his life, and defends his country. The Chinese nation has always been short of such heroes.

In addition to political education, physical and military training will naturally not be left behind. The one who trained them was General Li Jinglong, who followed His Highness the King of Liao for many years.

And now Li Jinglong is no longer as immature as before.

The 22-year-old Li Jinglong has already begun to have the style of a general, at least in terms of appearance and majesty.

However, only Zhu Qi knew clearly that Li Jinglong might have the malice of this era.

He can do anything, but he must not lead troops out to fight. Li Jinglong has never won at all in history.

However, it is still very reliable to conduct theoretical knowledge research and lead troops training.

Before, many of Zhu Qi's soldiers were trained by Li Jinglong himself. However, the facts proved that the soldiers trained by Li Jinglong were still very capable and were also very loyal.

And the new recruits also respect General Li Jinglong very much.

At least this is how Wang Erhu is. Looking at General Li Jinglong wearing a robe, Wang Erhu is always very envious.

And I yearn for one day I can become such a powerful general.

Li Jinglong's training methods naturally need not be mentioned. In just one month, Wang Erhu, who had just joined the army, had mastered the advancement of the military formation, and how to distinguish various slogans, etc.

However, no matter how rich the theoretical knowledge is, it still has to be put into practice. Fortunately, Wang Erhu and the others soon gained the opportunity to practice it.

Since the Northern Yuan Dynasty King Baobao gathered 100,000 troops to Yinaiji, he naturally did not come to the city to visit, so they soon prepared to launch an attack.

And this time the general who led this army was Wang Baobao himself.

Obviously, Wang Baobao also planned to take Yi Naiji back in person, which would slam the Ming Dynasty's aura.

Wang Baobao is naturally incomparable to such stupid generals as Nahachu.

Wang Baobao had already made plans before he arrived. He ordered his troops to forcibly march and arrived in Yinaiji within ten days.

The reason was that he knew that the Liao King Zhu Qi had used a very special method to collapse the city wall of Yi Naiji.
