The unified formulation of the world's unit of measurement system has become the first national policy of the Ming Dynasty under the fifth year of Jianwen.

Although Zhu Yunwen, the emperor, only asked for a re-survey of the two criteria of time and length, the people below deduced the emperor's idea of a unified unit of measurement through Zhu Yunwen's attitude, and then began to re-survey and sort out the various units of measurement used in the world to invite merit.

The affairs of the Ministry of Industry are naturally implemented by the Ministry of Industry, and Zhu Yunwen, the emperor, is only responsible for giving orders, and he is now going to shift his attention to the prairie.

Zhu Di only took 30,000 cavalry from Beijing, and although there would be routine military reports sent to scouts every day, Zhu Yunwen still felt anxious when he stayed in Nanjing.

Nanjing is too far from the prairie.

In the latest military report, Zhu Di has returned to his base camp Beiping City, which has been absent for five years, and began to command the troops from the three places to swallow the battle of the prairie, which made Zhu Yunwen feel like a cat scratching.

"No wonder in history, Zhu Di wanted to move the capital to Beijing."

sighed with emotion that Zhu Di was eager to fight, of course, Zhu Yunwen himself knew that Zhu Di moved the capital to Beijing not just to satisfy his idea of pro-conquest.

Not only does Zhu Di want to move the capital, but Zhu Yunwen himself plans to move the capital!

He wanted to move the capital, but not for the famous sentence of the Ming Dynasty: 'The Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies in Sheji.' ’

According to the records in the "Records of Taizong", Zhu Di's relocation of the capital to Beijing has nothing to do with these two negative words.

The dignified Emperor Yongle, pride and dry clouds, how can he be so pessimistic?

Whether it is defending or dying, it is passive, Zhu Di's personality is full of aggression, he only wants to fight, he only likes to conquer, he moved the capital to Beijing, purely to fight better, and then escape from the politics in the court that he hates.

Those who are familiar with the political scene of the Ming Dynasty know that in the early days of the Ming Dynasty, the most powerful in the Ming Dynasty were the Southern Party, the Huaixi Party, the Zhejiang Party and the Jiangxi Party.

Because of the flourishing of Jiangnan's literary atmosphere, after the resumption of the imperial examination in Hong Wunian, the ministers and ministers of the Ming Dynasty were gradually filled by Jiangnan scholars, which led to the phenomenon that the south is strong and the north is weak, and the land and township party complexes of the southerners are very heavy!

After Zhu Di's rebellion, in order to stabilize the stability of the Ming Dynasty, in addition to killing people, it was a compromise, relying on compromise to justify his name, which indirectly led to the civil official group gradually getting involved in the imperial power, and the political struggle and party struggle began to sprout in the Yongle Dynasty.

He wanted to make Zhu Gaoxu the crown prince but was violently opposed, Xie Jin and Yang Shiqi even played a joint trick to force the palace, and the angry Zhu Di could only kill Xie Jin to vent his anger, and then go to war in anger!

He is also a strange person, leaving Zhu Gaochi, the crown prince, in Nanjing as a 'puppet emperor', and his own real emperor is busy fighting in Beijing every day, and later he simply left his base camp in Beijing and did not return to Nanjing.

Born immediately, died immediately.

Zhu Di is eager to increase his prestige through martial arts, hoping to annex the prairie, so that his prestige can be comparable to that of Taizu, so that he can be dictatorial and suppress the Jiangnan Shizi group that has begun to gradually expand, his idea is very good, but unfortunately he failed.

In the Fifth Northern Expedition, Zhu Di died in the barracks.

However, Zhu Di's relocation of the capital to Beijing is still very effective, because since the relocation of the capital, the political arena of the Ming Dynasty has begun to tend to be balanced, and in the court, students from the north have gradually emerged, and the economy and people's livelihood in the north have gradually recovered and prospered.

Therefore, Zhu Di moved the capital to Beijing, military and political factors accounted for a large part, and only his descendants seriously practiced the words of the Son of Heaven guarding the country, and the king died.

And Zhu Yunwen's choice to move the capital to Beijing naturally has nothing to do with this sentence, and there are many reasons why he wants to move the capital.

First of all, it is the reason for the atmosphere, Nanjing is very good, and it is also the largest city in the world at the moment, but Nanjing is really not suitable for the existence of the national capital, because Nanjing is too prosperous!

Gentle countryside erodes the bones of heroes.

Jinling, the city of pink beauties, exudes a dazzling brilliance from the inside and outside, and after staying in this city for a long time, those generals who once dominated the battlefield and were bloody and proud, all seem to have a lot of rouge on their bodies.

In addition to the reasons for the climate, there are political reasons.

The Jiangnan literati group can no longer be allowed to continue to be strong, and for the sake of balancing the political situation, the political center of the Ming Dynasty is bound to move north.

And then it was to prevent the slightest control of the prairie and Liaodong.

Nanjing is near the sea, and when the Age of Discovery comes, Nanjing is bound to become an important city of the Ming Dynasty to expand the sea, theoretically speaking, it has a greater geographical advantage than Beijing, but for the same reason, the potential threat of war is also great.

How can you put the capital within the enemy's range.

And at least for two hundred years, the only people who can pose a threat to the Chinese nation are still the nomads on the road, so Zhu Yunwen is more concerned about how to control the various ethnic groups in the prairie and the vast land of Liaodong.

Of course, although Zhu Yunwen has this idea now, when it is time to implement it, he doesn't know what year it will be.

In the final analysis, the country still has no money at the moment.

Going to Beijing is not only to build an imperial palace, but also to relocate the people to the city, to replan the city, repair the city wall, repair the road, water supply and drainage system, these projects are huge, but the cost of building an imperial palace is much greater.

And just when Zhu Yunwen was thinking about moving the capital, Zhu Di, who was far away in the north, had already come to the Dongsheng Acropolis.

This is the core of more than a dozen health offices of the Monan Capital Division, and it is also the office of Song Sheng's marshal's office.

"After five years, His Royal Highness King Yan still has the same demeanor."

When the old people see each other, it is inevitable to have a greeting.

Song Sheng looked at Zhu Di, who was a lot whiter in front of him, and his body was slightly blessed, and it was difficult to associate the latter with the Yan King who fought side by side with him and fought on the bloody battlefield in his impression.

Song Sheng was looking at Zhu Di, and Zhu Di was also looking at Song Sheng.

Song Sheng, who has been in a high position for a long time and has an army of more than 100,000 troops, has three points more momentum than back then, and he is no longer the chief military officer of Gansu who he wanted to fight for.

Zhu Di sorted out his complicated mood, saw Song Xuan beside Song Sheng, and said with a smile.

"Jiangmen Huzi, Ling Lang is not the herald back then, he is so handsome, and in time, he will be a good general of my Ming Dynasty."

Hearing Zhu Di's boasting, Song Xuan hurriedly clenched his fists and arched his hands: "The last general has seen His Royal Highness King Yan." ”

"The dog's stubborn material, where is it worthy of the praise of King Yan."

Although he was polite on his face, Song Sheng still subconsciously kept a little distance from Zhu Di in his words, and if the frontier generals were close to their clansmen, it would be a big taboo.

"When old friends meet, drink hard."

As if he didn't feel it, Zhu Di grabbed Song Sheng's arm and walked to the city: "Lonely, I was sent to Mobei to hunt with the holy order, to see how the people of my Daming Grassland are doing, Xining Hou has been in the north for a long time, so I will trouble and introduce Lonely." ”

Take a look at the people of my Daming grassland?

Song Sheng couldn't help but smile on his face.

I have long heard the rumors that the current emperor is very thick-skinned, but he didn't expect to stay in Nanjing for a few years, and even Zhu Di is now bad at learning.

How could anyone go with hundreds of thousands of troops, dressed in armor and carrying knives?

The two entered the city talking and laughing, and arranged a reception banquet for Zhu Di in Song Sheng's marshal mansion that night.

With the banquet, they are all the commanders of more than a dozen guards in the south of the country, plus the commanders from Beiping are all in the same knowledge, and in the Dongsheng Acropolis, it can also be called a sentence of stars like clouds.

Although the old friends met, but in fact there was not a very warm atmosphere, everyone toasted to Zhu Di, and after a few words of greeting, the topic involuntarily turned to the war that was about to begin.

Devour the savannah!

A major event that makes people's blood boil when they think about it, a great battle that is enough to be engraved in history!

"The troops of the Timurid Khanate have retreated."

Song Sheng opened his mouth to introduce the current war in the Northland, and he frowned, a little disappointed.

"The specific reason has not been explored, only that the army of the Timurid Khanate took the East Chagatai Khanate to the west, which was still half a month ago, but most of the combined forces of the steppe people are still guarding the Usi River, and they do not dare to move lightly, but the army of the Ghost Lichi and the Tatars has diverted 20,000 people, and now it has turned back to the difficult river."

The army of the steppe people turned back?

This news made Zhu Di's eyebrows tightly locked, and he was suddenly a little unhappy.

What he thought was that the army came out together, and directly made dumplings in the Nanhe without a single soldier, and then forced the landing of Mahamu and Arutai, but now that there is an army in the Nanhe River, it will inevitably increase the difficulty of the Ming annexation.

Maybe even Zhu Di himself didn't find out, after following Zhu Yunwen for a long time, now he is no longer the Daming Yan King who was eager for blood and killing, he actually began to think about how to maximize his interests before the end of the war, thinking about taking advantage of a big advantage without much effort.

"No matter what, at least for now, it is certain that the vitality of the prairie has been greatly damaged, and the grassland tribes are in a period of absolute weakness."

Song Sheng said excitedly: "At least nearly 200,000 Tartars have died in the Wusi River, and now the entire grassland, at most, will not exceed 100,000 string controllers, I Mo Nan has been raising horses for so many years, plus the tribute of the grassland in the past two years, the number of good horses is also nearly 100,000, and the athletes under his command have been practicing equestrianism for a long time, and they can fight on horses at any time." ”

Daming actually has no shortage of war horses, and even the number of war horses is very large, otherwise how could Lan Yu have completed the battle in the fishing sea back then and ended up in the Northern Yuan's nest?

Could it be that the army of more than 200,000 people ran on two legs, and the nomads were not not highly educated, and they were not brainless fools, so they let the army of blue jade surround them.

If you can't beat it, you can always run it.

Mo Nanwei's main responsibility is to help the Ming Dynasty raise horses, and Mo Nan is the Inner Mongolia region of later generations.

The water and grass here are abundant, there are many water systems, and the phenomenon of desertification and soil erosion is far less serious than that of later generations, so the current Mo Nan Dusi, with more than a dozen health centers under its jurisdiction, hundreds of thousands of athletes and nomads are almost indistinguishable from the nomads.

The composition of the Monan Dusi is mainly based on the Han nationality, and the Mongols, the Wudi Ha people, the Jurchens and various ethnic minorities who were unwilling to follow the northern retreat of the remnant Yuan and surrender were attached, and there were also some Uighurs and Hui here, as early as the eighteenth year of Hongwu, Emperor Taizu had organized a mission to the west, and sent to the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, the Timurid Khanate, the Ottoman Empire and other Central Asian and Eastern European countries.

These countries have all sent tributary teams to the Ming Dynasty, and the main gift that Taizu asked them for was a war horse!

For example, the data of Timur's several tributes to the Ming Dynasty, good horses are one of the indispensable ones, mostly about 500 horses, 1,000 horses, plus the tribute of several other countries, the number of war horses of the Ming Dynasty is absolutely enough.

There are two main horse farms in Daming, one is the Mongolian horse farm in Mo Nan, and the other is the Qinghai horse farm in Meng Qiwei.

"A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity should not be neglected or missed."

Zhu Di raised his glass and drank it all, his eyes firm.

"At that time, Mo Nanwei swept along the west side of the Troubled River, and at the same time ordered the three divisions of Liaodong and Wuliangha to go to Daning and sweep along the east side of the Troubled River. A hundred years ago, the revenge of our Han people in Yashan should be avenged! ”

The so-called Spring and Autumn Righteousness, the revenge of the tenth generation, can still be avenged!

Feng Shui takes turns, when the grassland people went south, the Han country was ruined, and the land of Shenzhou sank, and now, it is time for them to taste the taste of the extinction of the country!

The martial artists in the lobby were all excited, and Zhu Gaoxu even shouted: "Simply kill all the more than one million people in the River of Suffering!" The blood debts they committed in Sichuan and Changzhou should be repaid with blood. ”

Seeing the cruel and bloodthirsty look on Zhu Di's face inadvertently, Song Sheng frowned and asked.

"Is this what Your Majesty means, or does King Yan mean? At present, the situation in the border area of my Ming Dynasty is special, and without His Majesty's holy decree, this matter will never be feasible. ”

The ethnic situation in Monan is complicated, once the ethnic massacre is carried out, Monan will fall apart in an instant, and it will be difficult to carry out internal cleansing first? And what about the Mon Hachie in Kansai?

"Xining Hou is too worried, Gao Xu is just talking."

Zhu Di scolded Zhu Gaoxu twice, then turned his head to look at Song Sheng, and said warmly: "Your Majesty's intention is to take this opportunity to destroy the Eastern Chagatai Khanate by the way." ”

Destroy the East Chagatai?

Song Sheng was slightly stunned, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Driving tigers and devouring wolves?"

Seeing the doubts on the faces of the generals in the lobby, Zhu Di laughed.

"Once we eat these herdsmen of the Troubled River, we will force Mahamu and Arutai to take their coalition army to destroy East Chagatai, and let the blood of the grassland people come to open up territory for our Ming Dynasty!"

Before Zhu Di left Beijing, he and Zhu Yunwen had a bad heart.

Once Mahamu and Arutai are forced to land, how to manage them?

They are all heroes, and they have more than 100,000 troops in their hands, and it takes time and effort to digest them. It is even more difficult to kill them all, and once people surrender and kill them, Meng Bawei will instantly turn back, which will be harmful to the country.

So Zhu Yunwen gave Zhu Di an idea.

Let the coalition forces of the steppe go to destroy the East Chagatai!

It's time to return to the embrace of the Ming motherland.
