Chapter 246: Layout

It's a pity that his son Ashikaga Yoshinori changed his policy, the exploration and trade between the two sides was interrupted, Japan no longer hunted down the Japanese pirates, and the Japanese raids that Ashikaga Yoshimitsu had somewhat restrained at the time spread along the coast of China.

Therefore, it is unreliable to rely on the Japanese people in power, not to mention how can Zhu Biao believe them, the interests are moving, and after Japan has a unified leadership, I am afraid that the originally chaotic and unorganized Japanese pirates will become organized aggression, and Japan has been ambitious since ancient times.

Zhu Biao sighed, in the final analysis, it is necessary to destroy Japan, at least to occupy one of Japan's main islands first, and then it is the king to fight steadily, and after completely controlling Japan, there is no need to worry about the Japanese invaders.

It's just that now the Ming Dynasty is in ruins, and there are examples of the Yuan Dynasty's two failed expeditions to Japan, whether it is Zhu Yuanzhang or a hundred civil and military officials, no one will be willing to waste national strength to attack an overseas island.

Unless Zhu Biao puts his heart into acting, Zhu Yuanzhang may raise troops to fight under his anger, but after thinking about it, he still gave up, it doesn't matter if he is slightly injured, but now taking Japan will indeed do more harm than good, and whether he can win or not is still two words, even in the East Asian monster room, Japan is also a strong man.

If it is a land battle, the Ming Dynasty is naturally fearless, but the expedition to the sea is not a joke, the Ming Dynasty can not afford that consumption, the Yuan Dynasty when the original expedition to Japan was also the founding of the country, the invincible Mongolian iron cavalry although there are natural disasters, but it also proves that Japan's combat effectiveness is not weak.

Zhu Biao looked at the position of the Japanese mainland from afar, no matter what, he would destroy Japan, the time is not yet ripe, and a lot of arrangements need to be made, and taking Goryeo is the most important link.

With Goryeo, there is a springboard to attack Japan, and there is also a wave of cannon fodder, so he will not feel distressed if the Goryeo soldiers go to consume Japan, and then the Ming Dynasty will have enough food and grass materials to support cross-sea operations.

Of course, Zhu Biao also has to send someone to study the celestial phenomena at sea, in case of another typhoon, no one can stand it, the Japanese are so evil, otherwise they would have been destroyed by Kublai Khan a long time ago.

The next day, Zhu Biao finally waited for the news from Yao Guangxiao, they had been entering Goryeo as envoys of the Ming Dynasty for several months, and Jiang Side got along well with Wang Yuan, the king of Goryeo, as the main envoy, and they were accompanied by eating, drinking and having fun every day.

And Yao Guangxiao is good friends with the monk Xin Min, after all, the same monk also has a common language, of course, the most important thing is Yao Guangxiao's ability, a little Xin Min came up with a few ideas to solve a few political enemies and was treated as a guest.

Xin Min's ambitions also grew under his encouragement, the political situation in Goryeo became more and more chaotic, Yao Guangxiao expected a big war in two years, and now he came to ask Zhu Biao who he intended to win.

After thinking about it, Zhu Biao ordered him to write a letter to Yao Guangxiao, the content of which was roughly to consume the strength of Goryeo as much as possible, especially the diehard henchmen loyal to the king of Goryeo, his hero and my enemy, to win over the wavering villain, and finally let the king of Goryeo win.

After the man left, Zhu Biao passed several orders to Goryeo through Quan Xu, and one was passed to Jiang Side, this is a situation to seek the country, and Zhu Biao naturally will not put the treasure on Yao Guangxiao's side.

The king of Goryeo will not live for a few years, and Zhu Biao is now ready to support a suitable prince, even at the expense of coming forward directly, although it is a bit excessive, but it is the truth that a weak country has no diplomacy.

In the last years of a dynasty, the cows, ghosts, snakes and gods will appear, and this is the case in Goryeo now, the traitorous ministers interfere with the party and interfere in the government, the people rebel constantly, there are foreign robbers, and the people are not happy, Zhu Biao wants to intervene in the arrangement with the general trend It is too simple, I am afraid that the king of Goryeo still feels it.

But what can he do? One wrong step, one wrong step, since he handed over the power to Hinton in order to escape reality, he has lost the direct right to rule the country, and now it is too late to take it back, the most he can do is kill Jiang Side out of anger.

How could Zhu Biao be reluctant to have a courtier, just give his children and grandchildren the title of marquis and promote the first generation of wealth, and after everyone else went out, Zhu Biao summoned the prefect of Dengzhou and asked him to gather local shipwrights, and Zhu Biaobei took them away.

At this time, there was no way to ask for good words, after all, no one wanted to leave their hometown, and the government forcibly gathered all the families and loaded them onto the ship, and they were so frightened that they thought they were going to be sold.

When the number of people was about the same, Zhu Biao personally went up to explain to them, first gave each family a large bag of copper coins, and promised them to settle down, promising all kinds of benefits to make them feel at ease.

Then the fleet set off directly, and the Marquis of Jinghai had already been arranged, and if the Japanese invaded, they could refuse to defend it, and wait for other places to come to support.

This voyage was further, directly towards Fuzhou Mansion, where there was the largest sailor camp in the Ming Dynasty, Tang Ding was also there waiting for Zhu Biao's arrival, and Zhu Biao also went down to see the supplies along the way, and it was indeed the more south the richer he became.

When sailing to Ningbo Mansion, Zhu Biao also received news that Yang Xian was imprisoned for the crime of bullying the king, and he was about to be beheaded, Zhu Biao was also silent for a long time.

Now that he is going to say goodbye forever, he can only sigh that he is a thief, whether it is Zhu Biao or Zhu Yuanzhang, they used to appreciate Yang Xian very much, especially the responsibility he showed when he first took over Yangzhou.

According to Zhu Biao's guess, his father really planned to train Yang Xian well, and was ready to let him be trained in the local area for about ten years before being transferred to the central government, but Yang Xian did not hesitate to bully the monarch in order to enter the central government, but he also exaggerated his political achievements in governing Yangzhou at the expense of bullying the monarch.

Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely disappointed, and casually followed his wishes, allowing him to rise all the way, and it took less than two years to get to his current status, but his bad debts broke out, and no one could save him.

Zhu Biao began to reflect on it, he also watched Yang Xian step by step to today, and even because he had long known that he would have such a day, he saw it very clearly.

No matter how you behave and do things, you can't be too anxious, opportunism is a small way, and being able to be rampant for a while is by no means a long-term solution, not to mention Zhu Biao's position, you have to be cautious in doing things no matter what.

Zhu Biao shook his head and invited a few experienced old shipwrights, this time Zhu Biao mixed with them every day, at first they were a little constrained, but now it is much more natural, after all, Zhu Biao has never been interested in ordinary people.

Zhu Biao told them a lot about the understanding of ships in later generations, but the significance was not too great, after all, Zhu Biao did not know much about the ships of later generations, and they were all made of steel.

But it doesn't matter, as long as you can give some general direction, in a few years when the country is rich, Zhu Biao will set up professional schools and scientific research institutes, even if he can't get results for decades, he will continue to support it.

The country is really uncomfortable, Zhu Biao has too much to do, but he is trapped in the limitations of national strength, the foundation left by the Yuan Dynasty is too bad, at least he has to feed the people in the country first, otherwise there is the meaning of doing things.
