Entering July, Kangxi issued an order early to start preparations for Mulan Autumn.
Today's Mulan Paddock has lush forests and luxuriant water and grass, so it is easy for animals to gather together to breed.
The enclosure is quite large, about 300 miles apart from east to west and north to south, with a total area of more than 10,000 square kilometers. It is divided into six to seventy small enclosures based on different terrains and distribution of animals.
In this way, you can ensure that the area you hunt is different each time to avoid killing all the beasts.
In the past, the main purpose of Kangxi's Mulan Festival was to urge the children of the Eight Banners not to forget their riding and shooting skills and to have fun with the Mongolian princes and nobles.
Because the Junggar people are ready to move in the area near Khalkha Mongolia, they are very likely to invade eastward.
This time, Kangxi specifically ordered Yuzhu to bring 3,000 new troops to escort him, equipped with infantry and infantry artillery armor from the firearms battalion.
This is ready for battle at any time!
After the decree was issued, the accompanying princes were the third, fourth, fourteenth, ninth, tenth, eighteenth and twentieth princes.
Originally, Lao Ba was also among the entourage.
However, it happened to be the second anniversary of the death of the good concubine, and Lao Ba wanted to go to the concubine's bedchamber in Jingling to pay homage to his biological mother.
The old man went to the brochure and explained the situation of the good concubine's memorial day, and applied to go to the mother's funeral first, and then to the Mulan paddock to accompany her.
Because Lao Ba's reasons were fair and justifiable, Kangxi reluctantly agreed although he felt a little uncomfortable.
The key members of the Ba Ye Party and several princes and elder brothers who were expected to take over the throne were not in the capital. This was obviously Kangxi's deliberate move.
Yuzhu was too lazy to take care of so much. He arranged his troops and horses, received the military rations and baggage from the Hubu warehouse, and waited for the official departure.
Over the years, the number of combat soldiers in Yuzhu's new army has not increased by one person. However, the number of auxiliary training soldiers has increased by a thousand.
Nurturing soldiers, that is, reserve soldiers who receive half of their food and pay, act as auxiliary soldiers.
Because the soldiers were raised without muskets or standard swords and guns, Kangxi negligently accepted the jade pillar.
Yuzhu was not in a hurry at all. He adopted the method of moisturizing things quietly and spent half a year training the training soldiers into well-disciplined logistics troops.
To put it bluntly, as long as they are disciplined and follow orders in all actions, these raised soldiers can be transformed into platoon combat soldiers anytime and anywhere.
Line infantry, the souls lined up to be shot, is the strict military discipline!
If you are a little cowardly and timid, the team will completely collapse.
For example, during the American Revolutionary War, General Washington was highly praised. His motley crew of Continental Army was repeatedly beaten to pieces by British lobster soldiers.
To put it bluntly, military discipline is far less wise than that of the British army, and there are too many people who are afraid of turning around and running away!
If France hadn't produced a foolish man who sacrificed himself for others, the founding father of the United States, Louis XVI, how would the independence of the United States be a thing?
During the entire American War of Independence, France successively invested an army, several navies, 146 sailing warships, and nearly 100,000 troops in a bloody battle with the British army.

During the war, several officers and soldiers of the French army were killed in the War of Independence. However, the total number of casualties of the American army was only about 100,000.
In order to help the United States defeat Britain, France had financial difficulties and was unable to cure the famine in France, which directly triggered the French Revolution.
Emperor Louis XVI was guillotined. How much of a sacrifice was this?
I would like to ask, who actually won the American War of Independence?
These days, it is common among the green battalion soldiers to take advantage of free money.
It is a common thing for an officer to eat up the food and salary of three people out of ten soldiers.
Moreover, the soldiers need to pay for their daily meals themselves.
The new Yongrui Battalion troops under Yuzhu have no problem with empty pay at all, and their meals are definitely free of charge.
However, in order to confuse Kangxi, the composition of today's Yongrui Battalion soldiers is relatively complicated.
There are Han troops carrying flags, pure Han people, and raised soldiers.
In the past, all the princes and elder brothers accompanying me didn't care about anything.
This time when we went to Mulan Paddock, perhaps because Kangxi was not energetic enough, he appointed Laosi and Laosi as prime ministers of the imperial camp.
Among them, the fourth child is responsible for the internal guards of the imperial camp, and the fourth child is responsible for dispatching the peripheral troops and horses of the imperial camp.
The four thousand new troops under Yuzhu were designated by the old emperor as the guards of the imperial camp.
That is to say, beside the old emperor, from the inside to the outside, there are, in order, the guards with swords in front of the emperor, the guards of Qingxi Bookstore, the guards of Shangsanqi led by Lao Si, the new army of Yuzhu, the forward battalion led by Lao Si,
Xiaoqi camp, guard camp, etc.
Yuzhu knew full well that this arrangement was obviously a concrete manifestation of the old emperor's idea of balancing power.
The fourth child, the fourteenth child, and the little guy Yuzhu, you all should keep each other in check.
Hum, as long as I am still alive, no one can try to cover up the sky with one hand and cause trouble!
In the early morning of the day of departure, two carriages carrying Qian Yinglan and Xingxin quietly drove into Yuzhu's military camp.
This is already an old rule. Whenever he goes out to fight, Yu Xiaozhongtang cannot do without the service of a woman.
Similar situations have happened many times, and Kangxi has long been accustomed to it.
Even the old emperor acquiesced to Yuzhu's privileges, who dared to meddle in his business?
As soon as the large team arrived in Huairou, Yuzhu was surprised that Nian Bianfujin, who had been carried into Prince Yong's Mansion, actually took the initiative to find Qian Yinglan and Xingxin to keep him company.
Yuzhu deliberately brought only two maids with him, and deliberately lowered the status of the accompanying women, because he did not want to have too many interactions with the prince's brothers on the road.
However, Su Peisheng, who came with Nian Fujin, said: "Our prince said that he has many things to do. You are the best at enjoying life in Xiaozhongtang. You will definitely not wrong us Fujin."
Damn it, thanks to Laosi, he is really capable of bending and stretching.
You must know that Nian is the prince of Fujin who has received a jade certificate, and he is actually willing to associate with two humble maids and concubines.
How could Yuzhu not be moved if he had not known the fourth child's meanness and unkindness for a long time?
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Prince Fu Jin is the same as the Duke Fu Jin, so Nian is qualified to hand over a sign to the palace alone to meet the Empress Dowager.
When a grand banquet is held in the palace, Prince Fujin naturally has a seat in the front row.
However, to hang around the old emperor, knowing the subtleties is a must-have basic skill.
Although Su Peisheng did not explain the inside story clearly, Yuzhu knew it very well.
With Lao Si's low-key and cautious temperament, if he hadn't been instructed by Kangxi, he would never have dared to let Nian come over to communicate with him.
The fourth child was indeed right.
After the big team set off, Yuzhu's small team had a constant supply of all kinds of seasonal vegetables, fresh meat, and live fish.
According to the rules, after the imperial camp is on the road, the food and beverage supplies for the accompanying ministers should be fully taken care of by the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Imperial Kitchen.
However, after Lao Ba became the elder brother in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, no one of the officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs dared to get close to Yuzhu publicly.
As a result, more than half of the various ingredients given to Yuzhu by the Ministry of Internal Affairs were stale.
On the way, because Yuzhu had to lead troops, it was impossible to enter the imperial camp anytime and anywhere.
Invisibly, he, the prime minister of the imperial family, was completely ignored.
If it were an ordinary accompanying minister, he would definitely consider himself unlucky.
However, who is Yuzhu? Would a living person still suffocate to death?
The accompanying staff of the Universe Travel Ticket Company specially stood in front of Yuzhu to contact them for all kinds of fresh ingredients and game.
As we all know, among the people, big businessmen from all over the world are afraid of the emperor and the government, mainly because they are afraid of causing trouble.
However, if these businessmen want to make big money, they cannot do without the support of big bank accounts.
Yuzhu's first cosmic ticket number is an indispensable crutch in the eyes of big businessmen everywhere.
Therefore, wherever the large team arrived, there were special materials specially prepared by wealthy merchants from all over the country, and they were continuously sent to Yuzhu's camp through the large convoys that raised soldiers.
It's good to stay at home for a thousand days, but it's difficult to go out.
The difficulty lies in the supply of materials!
Nian was also a pampered noblewoman since she was a child. She was so satisfied with Yuzhu's place that she actually refused to leave.
Old Fourteen has long wanted to find fault and clean up the jade pillar.
The large convoy transporting supplies to Yuzhu passed under the eyes of Lao Shisi every day. He couldn't hold it back and intercepted it.
Originally, Old Fourteen thought that Yuzhu would come forward and come to him to argue, which would create an opportunity for him to deal with Yuzhu.
However, Yuzhu is an old man and has extremely rich experience in political struggles.
As long as Old Fourteen doesn't arrest anyone, Yuzhu will pretend not to know and won't make any noise.
However, when Old Fourteen wanted to see Kangxi, he couldn't help it. Yuzhu's confidants, in strict accordance with the requirements of the imperial guards, intercepted Old Fourteen's personal guards and touched them from head to toe.
And he touched it from his feet to his head.
Yuzhu's men did not deliberately make things difficult for Old Fourteen's guards. However, their search speed was ten times slower than usual.
The fourteenth old man wanted to go in, but no one stopped him, so he went in as he pleased.
However, the fourteenth old man's entourage, including the officials of Beizi Mansion, such as the ceremony, the foreman of the guard, etc., were all apologetic.
Search them one by one, and search them slowly, carefully, and seriously, inch by inch.
The process of body search was completely in compliance with the rules. However, it was extremely annoying and suffocating.
Moreover, I can only hold in the bad breath and cannot spit it out.
However, Yuzhu is carrying out the emperor's will. Alas, if you don't search carefully, who can afford it if something goes wrong?
"Hey, where are you touching?" Old Fourteen's foreman realized something was wrong and shouted in shock and anger.
"What's the name of a ghost? Touching your crotch is a perfectly legitimate thing to do. Shut up."
"You are so stubborn, you are so bullying." Old Fourteen's head guard suddenly drew his sword in his hand.
The officer who searched him took advantage of the situation and fell to the ground, rolling on the ground and shouting: "Oh, my heart hurts, my liver hurts, I won't survive."
Hey, Yuzhu's subordinates have been waiting for this moment.
Damn, you actually dared to draw a sword in Yuzhu's military camp. What kind of behavior is that?
"Didi..." The sentries decisively blew the bamboo whistle to call the police.
The alarms surrounding the imperial camp were an absolute chain reaction.
"Didi-dah-dah..." Almost in the blink of an eye, the loud rally bugle sounded over the New Army camp.
Good guy, this fun is going to be really big!
