Chapter 82 A secret mission takes advantage of the situation.

On a tower not far from the street, Zhu Di and Zhu Zhangui looked at the scene in the distance with expressionless faces.

"The remnants of Jianwen are almost dead in this battle!"

The old man twirled his beard with his hand, looked at the street in the distance, and sighed.

Zhu Zhangui nodded slightly.

"Except for those from Nu'er Gandusi, almost all those who were wandering around came today. Even if they haven't been cleared out, they are just some small minions."

Zhu Di closed his eyes, pondered for a while, and then slowly said: "This time Zheng He goes out, I plan to ask Zhan Ji to follow him. Firstly, I want him to go out to see the world, and secondly, I want him to go out to relax and forget about this girl.

.”

After saying that, he turned to look at Zhu Zhangui.

"As long as he doesn't do anything rebellious in the future, how about giving him a way to survive?"

The old man's words made Zhu Zhangui stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

The old man still doesn't trust him.

But you can understand it if you think about it.

The characters of him and the old man are really similar. When he was young, the old man was cruel and ruthless.

He was worried that a mere oath would not be able to restrain Zhu Zhangui at all.

He even suspected in his heart that Zhu Zhangui didn't take this oath to heart at all.

"I swore an oath before you."

Zhu Zhangui looked at the old man and mentioned what he had sworn a few days ago.

The old man looked at Zhu Zhangui for a long time, and when he saw that his expression was very serious, he nodded slightly.

After a brief conversation, the two continued to look at the street in the distance.

"If, I say if..."

After a while, the old man suddenly spoke.

Zhu Zhangui leaned forward slightly and listened to the old man's arrangements.

"If one day they become disloyal, for Grandpa's sake, you will imprison them and let them..."

The old man suddenly fell silent.

He knew that he was already dead at that time, and if he kept restricting Zhu Zhangui like this, it might lead to a big mistake.

"Forget it, you can figure it out yourself. Just give them some dignity when the time comes."

Zhu Zhangui said nothing and did not make any guarantee.

No one can say for sure what will happen in the future.

Today's thoughts will change tomorrow. Zhu Zhangui doesn't know what choice he will make in the future when he really faces that kind of situation?

The grandfather and grandson stayed on the tower until noon.

It wasn't until the corpses on the street were cleaned up that the old man stood up with Zhu Zhangui's help.

"Hurry up and prepare the Shenji Battalion's equipment. When we inspect the troops in a while, grandpa will be waiting for you to look good."

Zhu Zhangui nodded quickly in agreement.

"You have accepted some people from Ji Gang, how do you plan to arrange these people?"

Zhu Zhangui was not surprised that the old man knew that he had accepted Ji Gang's people.

Zhu Zhangui would not think that the old man was Jin Yiwei's source of information.

Emperors are suspicious people, and they never trust anyone, including the people next to them.

"The grassland is vast, and the target of the army is too big, so it is easy to be discovered by the enemy. If they don't want to challenge us, we won't be able to find them at all. I plan to send some spies to keep an eye on those tribes. When the time comes, we will send our army north, okay

Find them."

In history, Zhu Di went on five northern expeditions. Except for the first two, where he played a few games, the next three northern expeditions were almost all about walking on the streets.

Hundreds of thousands of troops roamed the grassland for so long.

Not to mention the enemy, not even a single piece of wool was seen.

Even the last time, the old man lost his life on the grassland.

For the army, in addition to food and grass, intelligence is also very important.

Many countries even put intelligence first.

Although the Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty was said to be an intelligence organization, in its earliest days, their main task was to monitor civil and military officials.

Regarding the enemy's intelligence, the imperial guards, including the entire court, did not pay much attention to it.

In order to master the enemy's intelligence so as to achieve victory in future wars.

Zhu Zhangui had the idea of ​​establishing an intelligence department in his mind.

He selected 200 people from the Jinyi Guards and a group of people from his escorts to form the first professional intelligence department.

It's just that this department is still a start-up, and it doesn't even have a name.

Zhu Zhangui gave a promise to all intelligence personnel.

As long as this Northern Expedition, their intelligence department can make outstanding contributions.

In the future, their status will not be worse than that of Jinyiwei.

Zhu Zhangui's promise made the intelligence agencies tighten their clockwork, and everyone was gearing up to do something big.

"Then who are you going to put in charge?"

Knowing the purpose of Zhu Zhangui's request, the old man chuckled.

Regarding this matter, the old man did not make any comment. Instead, he asked Zhu Zhangui who he planned to put in charge.

The intelligence department is the eyes of the monarch.

Eyes that can bypass all civil and military officials and see the whole world.

Such an important department, if the person in charge is not well chosen.

What the monarch sees is what the person in charge wants you to see.

Once the candidate is not chosen well, the harm will be even greater than that of civil and military ministers.

"I'm going to put my father-in-law in charge!"

"father in law!"

Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, "That Zhao girl's father."

Zhu Di nodded.

"My father-in-law has also worked in Jinyiwei and has a certain understanding of this aspect. It is very easy to get started."

"Another reason why I chose him is because Ji Gang is the commander of the Jinyi Guards."

"As the two of them are relatives of my two wives, I think they will definitely have a very tacit understanding if they work together."

Zhu Di pointed at Zhu Zhangui and asked with a smile: "Are you sure they will cooperate very well?"

Zhu Zhangui smiled and asked, "Isn't it?"

"Hahaha…"

The grandfather and grandson looked at each other and smiled, got into the waiting carriage and headed to the palace.

Camp south of the city.

A man in black brocade looked at the busy camp in front of him with emotion.

A few days ago, he was a hundred households who were almost cornered by thousands of households.

But in just a few days, his identity changed drastically.

The prospective father-in-law of the future Highness the Grandson, the biological father of the future Concubine the Grandson, and an unnamed third-rank commander of the Yamen.

When I arrived in Jinling, I had a big house, servants and maids at home, my wife's illness was cured, and I was busy preparing for my daughter's wedding.

The sudden change made it difficult for Zhao Qing to adapt to it.

Zhao Qing, who had always been a man of few words, felt a little uncomfortable with the welcome and drop-offs he received these days.

Today he received a notice from Zhu Zhangui, which made him breath a sigh of relief.

After telling the housekeeper at home to record the arrival of guests, he hurriedly put on his new official uniform and rushed to the camp in the south of the city.

"I've met Commander Zhao!"

Lao He, who had been waiting for a long time, saw Zhu Zhangui's father-in-law-to-be arriving. He put a smile on his face and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"Butler He is so polite!"
