Chapter 520: Flower Monk Zhu Yuanzhang (4)

Cheng Jiming, Wen Tiren, Sun Chengzong, Xu Guangqi. One by one, the names that were well-known in the history of the late Ming Dynasty have now appeared in front of Wang Anshi.

As the special ambassador of the Empire, he undertook the mission of fighting for the Empire's right to spread the Datong Religion throughout the Ming Dynasty.

Fortunately, in the life of the 21st century after rebirth, he also has a clear and definite understanding of the historical process of this era.

He also knew what kind of role these people played in the chaotic era of the late Ming Dynasty.

He didn't have a good impression of Cheng Jiming and Wen Tiren, in the Great Song Dynasty where he was located, he had seen a lot of intriguing hypocrites like this, including the famous Sima Guang, at least, he personally classified that person as such.

As for Sun Chengzong, he was full of respect. The teacher of the Emperor of the Apocalypse was once ordered to supervise Ji Liao when the situation in Liaodong was at its most erosive. Later, after retiring and returning home because of a trivial matter, he led his relatives and the warriors of his hometown, and the Jurchen cavalry who invaded the territory of the Ming Dynasty, to resist to the death, and finally died heroically.

Thinking about those Ming Dynasty officials who fell in despair, and then contacting the same Northern Song Dynasty officials, Wang Anshi can't help but show his respect for the emperor's teacher, even if he is now just invited back from his hometown by Emperor Chongzhen.

The current history is very different from the original historical trajectory, and the Ming Empire has an emperor who once lived for a period of time in the 21st century. At that time, Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen had already learned the last secret of the empire, and when he returned to this era, the only thing he had to do was to do his best to happen the original history alone.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to bear the infamy of the sergeant doctor and put the governance authority of the entire Shandong. It was ceded to the ascendant Dayue Empire, and also ceded the mining rights of many minerals in Lingnan to the Splendid Kingdom.

Although she has gained a lot of benefits from these two transfers. However, the Ming Empire, although its military capabilities have now declined seriously, they have never whispered to foreign enemies since their birth. Even if you are actually very vulnerable, you have to pretend to be strong on the outside.

This kind of posture of being strong on the outside and doing things in the middle is not because they love vanity. This is because they have experienced too much alien ravages and do not want to go back to that sad and lamentable era, which is also the era when they have the least status as a scholar.

This situation is more of the wishful thinking of readers, and there are not many people's insights, so you don't have too many people to really think about these things, so the Ming Dynasty has the reality of a decline in military strength.

Emperor Chongzhen was more inclined to scholars and knew more about scholars. Since returning from the 21st century, he has also been acutely aware of the weaknesses of these scholars.

As a result, he did not finally shout out the lament that all Wenchen could be killed as he did in the original history. Instead, if you start the layout in advance, you will cultivate a group of people you can trust, and these people can be scholars, but they must be scholars with advanced concepts. Thereupon. Xu Guangqi was enabled in this way, but he is not a person who understands military affairs, then. Sun Chengzong, who had been ordered to supervise Ji Liao, came to him.

This is not necessarily the right choice, after all, he is just one of the most accomplished Confucian scholars in academics, however, Emperor Chongzhen has no better choice.

Of course, after hearing the request of the Great Yue Empire, he began to slowly feel that his choice should be extremely correct.

The Great Viet Empire had begun to infiltrate their country with religion all the time, which was not a covert means for Emperor Chongzhen, who had already lived for some time in the 21st century. He said that your 21 is that you have read some history books that guide religious expansion, nothing more than the vanguard form of political and military expansion.

However, limited by the level of education in ancient times, ordinary people do not have a high level of awareness and resistance to these precious religions. Therefore, they are still the most vulnerable to persecution and deception.

And the Datong Sect that the Great Yue Empire had just drummed up was obvious, not only for these Li people, but also for the help of some Confucian ideas, to wipe out the scholars and doctors who were still in the ruling class.

This was obviously not good news for Emperor Chongzhen's Ming court, so he needed someone who knew a lot about the spirit of Confucianism, and who also had some achievements in military affairs, to negotiate with this envoy.

Such a person can not only see through the religious nature of the other party through his own Confucian cultivation, but also rely on his military ability to perceive whether there is hostility in the place.

With such a synthesis, Sun Chengdong is more suitable than Xu Guangqi.

After all, Xu Guangqi, as a Catholic, is likely to have inherited the ruthless methods of Catholicism against infidels. There is no guarantee that the negotiations will take place in a peaceful atmosphere for a long time.

Therefore, Xu Guangqi's purpose in coming here is mainly to assist Sun Chengzong, as for the remaining two, they are only participating in this peace negotiation as cabinet members, and they are more focused on the development of the entire empire, rather than a certain aspect. After all, the conditions brought by Wang Anshi this time are not limited to religion, and what His Majesty the Emperor wants is not their religion?

However, as soon as the peace negotiations began, Wang Anshi began to show his muscles in front of them with some magical technology.

The Empire has acquired the technology to launch satellites from the future world, and it has now been fully digested, and the first experimental launch was recently carried out in the 17th century.

This experimental communication satellite is not just an experiment, on the contrary, it has more capabilities than ordinary satellites. The empire would like to use this satellite to complete all satellite commissioning in the field of communications. So, he's a big guy who is fully equipped.

As for simple video transmission, it is naturally not a problem.

In this way, Zhu Yuanzhang and Wang Anshi can already communicate by video. As long as they are equipped with a satellite phone with video communication, it is enough.

And this, for the current empire, is not too difficult. After all, they brought back a lot of advanced technology terminals directly from the future world, although they need to be sent to them, and they need to continue to digest the future technology, but the finished product can always be used directly, the more ancient people, the more they like to directly apply the literal meaning of the doctrine.

When Xu Guangqi, Sun Chengzong, Cheng Jiming, and Wen Tiren saw Zhu Yuanzhang in the video, they were surprised. They were not only surprised by this magical technology, but more importantly, surprised by Zhu Yuanzhang.

After all, they were all people who had seen the portrait of Taizu before. (To be continued......)
