Chapter 69 Li Yan: I have never seen such a detailed map!

"The leader has an order! Prepare to set up camp and have a meal, rest for the night before leaving!"

Two messengers rode on horses, holding command flags, running from both sides of the team from beginning to end, loudly conveying the latest military orders.

The team did not stop, but continued to move forward.

Because the camp can only be set up at the camp site selected by the forward, otherwise the military order is to let the soldiers rest on the spot.

Previously, on the grounds that many soldiers in the camp were infected with the disease, the Red Lady's Department had put the entire camp under martial law, with no entry or exit allowed, so that the soldiers could regain their energy before setting off that night.

Therefore, after leaving the camp, we walked for half a night and a whole day, covering nearly a hundred miles.

Except for a quarter of an hour or two at designated intervals to let the soldiers prepare for breakfast and lunch, they never stopped.

The march of the Red Lady Division is mainly divided into three parts, one is the exploration horse scattered in all directions.

In addition, the three directions of front, left and right are the main ones, and the rear is the least visited.

Then came the vanguard of more than a thousand cavalry, led by the Red Lady herself during the march.

More than 4,000 infantrymen marched together with the baggage battalion, which was equivalent to the middle army and rear battalion. They were led by Li Yan during the march.

In order to train herself and to get closer to the soldiers, Zhu Yuluo stayed in the Chinese Army.

Naturally, Li Yan did not dare to let Zhu Nuao follow him on foot, so he arranged a carriage for her.

But Zhu Aelao was unwilling to sit down and insisted on walking with Li Yan and others.

As a Ming princess, Zhu Yusao did not have her feet bound, but after all, she did not walk often, and her legs and feet lacked exercise and tempering, so she couldn't bear it after walking very far.

Although Hao Guangming couldn't see the situation of Zhu Yurao in Daming, he could guess that Zhu Yurao would not be able to hold on for long after he started walking.

So after Zhu Ailao left for more than two hours that night, he persuaded her through a Bluetooth headset.

"I know you want to train yourself, but many things cannot be accomplished overnight.

For example, when walking, people who walk frequently will develop a layer of calluses on the soles of their feet, which makes it less likely to cause blisters when walking long distances.

But you have never traveled a long distance before, so it is impossible to compare with the soldiers in the Red Lady Battalion who have been fighting in various places for several years.

You have to take your time and don't be impatient - one of the reasons why your father made the Ming Dynasty what it is today is because of impatientness. You don't want to make the same mistakes your father made, right?"

Hao Guangming used Chongzhen as a negative example, and Zhu Aao finally listened to his advice.

But she definitely can't go back to Hao Guangming, otherwise when she returns to the Ming Dynasty, she will appear where she left before, and she will fall behind the team.

At that time, Fei Zhen'e also saw that Zhu Aona was very tired, so she also advised: "Your Highness, why don't you get in the carriage and rest for a while?"

When the steps came to her, Zhu Aelao still felt ashamed, but she stopped being pretentious and nodded her head to get on the carriage.

Here Hao Guangming took the opportunity to chat with Zhu Ayao again.

"There are actually a lot of skills and things to pay attention to when walking a long way. Now I will tell you some little knowledge I found on the Internet. When you set up camp, you can tell the red lady, Li Yan, as long as there are a few useful ones, you can increase the number of people.

Your prestige in the military."

···

Before it got dark, the team set up camp.

Zhu Yasuo took advantage of the time to set up camp and returned to the old bamboo forest house. She ate a nutritious dinner prepared by Hao Guangming, took a comfortable hot bath, and soaked her feet in the medicinal soup prepared by Hao Guangming for half an hour before returning.

Daming this side.

At this time, the Red Lady was discussing the marching route with Li Yan in the tent.

Although the general marching route has been determined before, the specific marching route every day still needs to be calculated.

"Your Highness." Li Yan greeted Zhu Ayao politely.

The red lady sniffed and said in surprise: "The princess smells so good? Could it be that she used flower petals to bathe there?"

Zhu Aona was now very familiar with the red lady, and she smiled when she heard the words: "It's not the petals, but the shampoo and shower gel. I forgot about it, so I will bring you a few bottles of shampoo and shower gel later."

Although Zhu Yuluo used to use shower gel when taking a bath every day, she basically rested in the old house in Zhulin after taking a bath. She didn't come to Daming until the next day. The smell of bath shampoo on her body was not as strong as when she just took a bath, so the red lady didn't.

Notice.

Otherwise, as the red lady mentioned, Zhu Aoluo must have brought her shampoo and body wash long ago.

Of course, this is also because Zhu Yurao has been busy moving things recently and did not want to use the ability to travel to bring some irrelevant things.

There is no woman who does not love beauty and fragrance.

The Red Lady was no exception. She immediately smiled and said, "Then I'll thank the princess first."

Li Yan noticed that in addition to four portable lamps, Zhu Aona also held a paper roll.

When Zhu Yulao went back before, she brought eight portable lamps to charge. Now she naturally has to bring a few charged portable lamps when she comes here.

The portable lamps Hao Guangming bought can last for 12 hours on a single charge. Although all the portable lamps currently still have power, they cannot last more than a few hours.

Therefore, Zhu Yuluo naturally had to take advantage of every opportunity to change during time travel.

Li Yan knew about this, so his attention was on the scroll brought by Zhu Yu'ao.

Seeing this, Zhu Yasuo handed the scroll to Li Yan and said, "This is the map of the Ming Dynasty that I got over there. It just arrived today, so I brought it."

map?

Li Yan's eyes lit up after hearing this.

It should be noted that in the Ming Dynasty, maps were not as easy to find, buy, or search online as they would be in later generations.

In the Ming Dynasty, more detailed maps were state secrets and military secrets, and most people did not have them.

In addition, various government and military affairs of the Ming Dynasty government were weakened at the end of the Ming Dynasty. Although Li Yan and Red Lady conquered many prefectures and counties, they never got a good map.

The map currently used by Li Yan is still one he drew based on his own knowledge and what he saw from Li Zicheng.

When Li Yan opened the scroll, he was surprised to find that there was not just one map, but several.

When he saw the detailed divisions of prefectures and counties, the lines of mountains and rivers, and the markings of important cities and towns and important health posts, Li Yan felt goosebumps all over his body.

He has lived in his early thirties and prides himself on being knowledgeable, but he has never seen such a detailed and exquisite map - not even in the relevant databases of the Ming Dynasty Palace.

"This map is an important weapon for the military and the country!" His voice trembled, and he stared at the map with gleaming eyes and couldn't bear to move away, but he couldn't help but ask: "How did your Highness obtain it?"

Zhu Yusao smiled and said: "Mr. Li is looking at future generations from the perspective of the current world again. Although this map is exquisite, it is only drawn by later generations specifically to study the history of our Ming Dynasty. It is not a military or national weapon that can be bought with money."

After hearing this, Li Yan realized that he was indeed making a fuss again

After calming down a little, he couldn't help but take a deep look at Zhu Yu'ao.

Although Zhu Yuluo never said anything, Li Yan felt that Zhu Yuluo must have someone to help him in future generations.

This person is not only trusted by Zhu Aolao, but he is also likely to be rich and powerful.

Otherwise, Zhu Yurao would not have entrusted Zhu Yueshan to the care of that person, and he would not have been able to obtain so many things for future generations.

However, although Li Yan is relatively upright, he is not without emotional intelligence. Since Zhu Yuyao didn't say anything, he would not ask questions.

Then, he looked at these maps in detail and found that there was a complete map of the Ming Dynasty, as well as sub-maps of Beizhili and the five chief secretaries (provinces) of Henan, Shaanxi, Shaanxi, Huguang, and Sichuan.

After quickly browsing through these maps, Li Yan combined his own experience and found that the information on these maps was not very accurate, but overall it was still much more detailed than the current map.

Thinking about it, Zhu Yurao went to a later life that was hundreds of years ago, so it is inevitable to have incorrect geographical understanding at this time.

After studying for a while, he suddenly had a bright idea in his mind and said: "Your Highness, Madam, please look at it. Now that we have such a detailed map, maybe we can't just cross the mountains and go to Hanzhong from Shaanxi.

Although the distance from Shan and Shaanxi is short, if the Shun army discovers that we are marching without orders and have deserted King Chuang, we may be intercepted by the Shun troops from all sides in Shan and Shaanxi.

On the contrary, although the other route is longer, it starts from Henan and the north of Huguang. You only need to pass here to enter Hanzhong."

As he spoke, Li Yan pointed his hand at a certain place on the Huguang map.
