The fourth volume of the sharp blade out of the sheath Shenzhou moves

The cold wind whistled by, but Chongzhen's mood fluctuated, and he couldn't wait to sing a song to relieve the joy in his heart.

Once upon a time, expanding territory was not exactly what he wanted.

Unexpectedly, with the collapse of the situation, the courtiers fought with each other for their own selfishness, coupled with frequent natural disasters, the rise of Jiannu, all this is like a mirror, and it will never be again!

Today, Qin Aiqing's words rekindled the passion in his heart, which simply spoke to his heart.

The school is cold and not a good place to talk.

At the invitation of Qin Haoming, the group walked to the handsome tent in Yongdingmen.

As soon as he sat down, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't wait to ask Qin Haoming to continue the topic at first.

Qin Haoming smiled, Emperor Chongzhen is an acute son, and he really deserves his reputation.

Still, that's what he wants.

There is no conspiracy for people who are anxious, just say gong to gong and drum to drum.

After all, if you don't talk about some things, you will be suspicious and estranged from each other in the future, and in the end, you will see each other in battle, and your lives will be ruined, but it is not beautiful.

"In ancient times, the land was vast and sparsely populated, and the ancestors cultivated slash-and-burn farming, pioneered and raised the people, so that the people were simple and simple, and civilization began to flourish.

To Yan Huang prosperous, the population is large. The land is insufficient, and the development is limited, so the westerners advance eastward, and the southerners go west, and there is a battle for the deer.

The Yellow Emperor exterminated the Yellow River and expanded eastward along the Yellow River, and then there was the hinterland of the Central Plains. This is the wish of all the people for survival, how can the leaders of the two or three tribes do it? ”

Seeing a few people nodding, Qin Haoming continued: "The king of Zhou is feudal, the Western Qin is bitter and cold in Yongzhou, and he is envious when he looks at the Central Plains.

Destroy the dog in the west, fight for the princes in the south, and eventually become a great country under a hundred battles.

Qin Mu's public merchant martingale changed the law, although it angered the powerful and was torn apart, but its law did not change, and even the national strength prospered, shocking the six countries.

After Mu Gong, how can his descendants be generations of British masters?

However, even though there are ups and downs in Western Qin, it still does not fall into its momentum, and the soldiers are sloppy and sloppy, so as to peep into the world!

On the other hand, the Six Kingdoms, King Zhao Wuling, King Qi Wei, Duke Qi Huan, King Yan Zhao, and King Wei Hui are full of talents, and they have a rich land, and they have an army of ten thousand times, why can't they dominate the world, and they are invincible to one Qin Hu with the strength of the Six Kingdoms?

To the first emperor to destroy the six countries, although it stopped at two generations, but 400,000 attacked the Xiongnu in the north, 600,000 went south to the sea, and won the world without keeping it, how can an emperor through the ages prevaricate, it is actually the ambition of the Western Qin Dynasty accumulated and issued! ”

Throughout history, the fact that the Qin State was able to win the world was by no means the credit of Qin Shi Huang alone, but the gathering of the entire Great Qin military merit group and the martial atmosphere of the people of Great Qin.

If one generation is not good, it will be passed down from generation to generation, and there will eventually be the first emperor to rule the world.

What Qin Haoming has to do now is to arouse the ambition of all classes of the Ming Dynasty, only in this way can the Han people go out and no longer be limited to a mountain to compete for hegemony?

In a word, the outside world is wonderful, and you have to get out and walk around.

Of course, in Qin Haoming's eyes, he went out with a knife and a gun.

I just know what kind of hero is at home?

Killing and killing is to kill his own comrades, could it be that he Qin Haoming crossed back to kill the Han people, what is the difference between him and Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng and others?

Australia, millions of square kilometers of land, used by the British as a place of exile, can be self-reliant, is it not known to his descendants?

Emperor Chongzhen nodded, shook his head again, and said to Qin Haoming after a moment of silence: "Although your words are reasonable, they are also too arbitrary.

Qin's annihilation of the Six Kingdoms was not only about conquest, but also about strategy and geographical advantages. If it weren't for the fact that the Western Qin lived outside the Hangu Pass, sitting back and watching the warring states compete and exhaust their strength, how could the first emperor be unified? ”

Qin Haoming sighed and said: "Yan is based on Liaodong, Zhao Xiong dominates Yanyun, Han Wei embraces the hinterland, Chu has the Yangtze River, Qi has mountains and seas, who has no land?"

Qin has a British lord and a virtuous minister, how can the six countries have no wise monarchs and good ministers? Why is it that the six countries are war-weary, but Qin is the only one who is proud of his martial arts and pioneering?

The emperor please contact the actual think about it, when Jiannu was in the white water of Montenegro, can there be any geographical advantages?

But what now?

There is Korea as the heart of the east and Mongolia in the west, Mongolia in the west to block other Tatar tribes, and the whole territory of Liaodong in the south as the territory, and the north is the land of their ancestors.

In this comparison, does the emperor think that Jiannu is similar to the original Qin State? ”

Chongzhen lowered the dragon's head, sighed, and shook his head.

Yes, Jiannu was born in a bitter cold land, and every drink and food must rely on plundering the Ming Dynasty to become rich. Otherwise, they are just a tribal leader, how can they build a country?

That's why they were called slaves in the first place, but now?

Looking at Emperor Chongzhen's slightly sad face, Qin Haoming continued unrelentingly: "My generation reads history, is strong and fierce for the Han Dynasty, and is amazed for the Tang Sect.

Pointing out the country, inspiring words, drunk and singing, he should be generous, eager to draw his sword and look around, and restore the glory of his ancestors to the present.

Dare to ask the emperor, if you send an edict to conquer the Western Regions again and recover the old land of the Han and Tang Dynasties, I don't know all the people in the world, how many people are happy? ”

Chongzhen smiled bitterly and said calmly: "No, not to mention that the people don't know the advantages of the soldiers, it is the border army of the Ming Guard, and if they want to fight in the bitter cold land, it is estimated that they will not accept it." ”

Qin Haoming nodded, this is the dilemma of the Ming Dynasty for more than two hundred years, emphasizing literature over martial arts.

During the period of Taizu Chengzu, where the finger was directed, it was the soldier's point, and the army could be pulled out immediately.

Now, it's nice to be able to defend.

Qin Haoming asked Emperor Chongzhen again: "Your Majesty, everyone says that the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister."

That Weichen, may I ask the emperor in his heart, the Western Regions overseas is really the king's land, and the people of thousands of miles are really the king's people? ”

Chongzhen shook his head and smiled bitterly, his mouth was still stiff, "It's just talking, naturally not." How can the wilderness land and the people of the outside world be compared with my Ming Dynasty? ”

Qin Haoming got up and sighed: "Your Majesty, this is what Weichen said, since Qin, I have no ambitions in Huaxia.

Today's world, from Yanhuang, into the Great Qin, under the past dynasties, although there are additions, but there is no frontier.

West to Hami Xining, north to the nine-sided desert, east to thousands of miles of Haitao, south to Liangguang Fujian, the Sidis people, fixed in the Son of Heaven, prison in the people, beyond the four seas, are all wilderness. ”

Chongzhen's eyes were blazing, his fists were clenched, and he said seriously: "Please Aiqing to say the point!" ”

"How vast is the world? How abundant is it? Where are the hundreds of millions of people? Qin Haoming was overjoyed, but his face showed a sad look and said:

"Throughout the Chinese dynasties, the emperor was unified with the supreme, and the kings and grandsons sucked the bones and marrow with their blood.

The princes shared the monopoly with their ancestral merits, the clans annexed land with their wealth, the wealthy made profits with merchants, and the literati used the imperial examination to gain power for personal gain.

The coercion is all internal, how could he have the slightest ambition to get involved outside the territory?

Only the people are being exploited day by day, and the people's livelihood is in hardship for a long time.

Within ten generations, the rich will get richer and the poor will get poorer, so that the people's power will be exhausted. ”

Chongzhen suddenly realized, stared at Qin Haoming with deep eyes, and said: "If there are few people and more land, then you will see it." If there are many people and few land, we will see its decline, and if the people's strength is exhausted, we will see its death.

This so-called rise and fall is also sudden, within ten generations, two or three hundred years, then change the dynasty. Aiqing went around in a big circle, and it turned out that the pen was here. ”

Qin Haoming smiled lightly, with an unpredictable look on his face, "The sage said, there will be a king in five hundred years."

Hundreds of years later, there may be saints. There may be thaumaturgy that can break the way of this cycle, but there is nothing that can be done at this time.

Your Majesty, since Emperor Taizu Gao, I have been in the Ming Dynasty for 200 years. ”

Wang Chengen and Qin Haoming have a good relationship, but when they heard his rebellious remarks, their faces couldn't help but change, and they reprimanded Qin Haoming loudly:

"Bold, dare to map the emperor and curse the emperor!"

Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand to stop Wang Chengen, stared at Qin Haoming and said solemnly: "Think this is what you said, to vigorously develop the navy, go to thousands of miles, and operate the sea?" ”

Qin Haoming nodded and smiled: "Your Majesty Shengming!"

Emperor Chongzhen stood up solemnly, stepped forward and pulled Qin Haoming and asked, "What is Aiqing going to do?" Want to do it? ”

Qin Haoming shook Emperor Chongzhen's hand tightly. Then he took out the map from the tent and slowly unfolded it, revealing a rough map of the world.

Emperor Chongzhen, Prince Zhu Cihong, and Wang Chengen hurriedly stepped forward and looked at the map together, and couldn't help but take a deep breath one by one, trembling all over.

Qin Haoming said with a smile: "Weichen operates on the sea, so he naturally collects information everywhere, this is the result of three years, and he is now dedicated to my emperor." ”

After speaking, he pointed to the map and introduced them one by one, "The emperor, the prince, the prince, this is my Ming Dynasty!"

To the south is Annam, Chenla, Siam and other vassal countries, to the west is Tianzhu and Tianfang countries, and to the north is to cross the steppe desert, that is, Russia.

The west of Russia, that is, the Western countries, I call it the Francois in the Ming Dynasty. ”

Emperor Chongzhen pointed to Africa, America, and Oceania in later generations and asked: "Where is this, the territory is so vast, it is even wider than my Ming Dynasty?" ”

Qin Haoming said with a smile: "During the Chengzu period, I heard that Zheng He had been here, and the ministers didn't know anything about it, so it was tentatively called Africa."

This is the territory of the Western countries, and I heard that it is rich in gold and grain, so how about calling it the Americas for the time being? As for this place, it is the other side of the ocean, so let's call it Oceania. ”

Looking at the three of them who were traveling thousands of miles away, Qin Haoming smiled again and said, "Most of these are borderless lands. ”

"Borderlands?"

Chongzhen repeated in a low voice, his breathing suddenly became heavier, and his eyes sparkled.

"Regardless of whether there is a master or not, Weichen will take it for Daming!"

Qin Haoming's momentum rose suddenly, and he said proudly.

What are you kidding, taking the Borderlands, does that show ability?

Whatever we say, we should take this opportunity to create a truly peaceful and secure environment for future generations.

"The emperor asked the minister for his strategy, and the minister thought it should be divided into three steps.

One of them is to build warships to train sailors, control the sea route from the East to the Japanese Kingdom, and plunder the four seas to sit on the land and share the spoils.

Second, it built warships and gunboats and monopolized the route from the South China Sea to the West.

Third, at the same time, they coerced the vassal to cultivate food and feed back to the Ming Dynasty to temporarily solve the crisis. ”

Emperor Chongzhen took the case, and asked with blazing eyes: "This is what Aiqing once said, if you don't want the imperial court to raise a million male teachers?" ”

Qin Haoming nodded and smiled: "That's right!"

Workshops all over the south of the Yangtze River, famous for raw silk, silk and porcelain, the maritime merchants of Liangguang and Fujian trafficked this thing to get rich, and its benefits were several times? How much is his wealth more than 10 million?

Have you ever handed over a tael of silver to Your Majesty and the court? The minister is not talented, only one or two out of ten, think not much! ”

There were no outsiders around, and Chongzhen occasionally went crazy and laughed: "It's not much, I thought that I would just rob it all!" ”

Qin Haoming said angrily: "Your Majesty, cutting off people's financial routes and killing chickens and eggs is not the work of a wise man.

Although the maritime merchants are greedy, they are also the people of the Ming Dynasty, and the ministers are only for the benefit of the country, but they don't want the officials to force the people to rebel.

What's more, although this generation values profit over righteousness, it is the future of my Ming Dynasty, and the main force of the third step! ”

Chongzhen said disdainfully: "A group of despicable and greedy businessmen, in addition to colluding with corrupt officials to make profits, what can they do?" ”

"No!" Qin Haoming said seriously: "Building order on the sea and collecting 10,000 gold to feed the Ming Dynasty can only postpone the crisis, but it cannot completely solve the change of dynasty."

When the military force is the pioneer, the huge profits are used as the bait to guide the maritime merchants to colonize overseas and conquer the four seas.

Greed is the nature of people, greed is the beginning of ambition, maritime is the first step, and then there are wealthy families, noble emperors, and even the people of China!

The minister is willing to use the wealth of the four seas to arouse the greed of the world, stir the ambition of China, and think it is the foundation of eternity! ”

Looking at Chongzhen's incredulous eyes, looking at the prince's burning eyes, and looking at Wang Chengen's stupid sideways, Qin Haoming said proudly:

"The two emperors of Yan and Huang obeyed the interests of all the people, stirred up the ambitions of the tribes, and fought especially in the Central Plains.

Qin Shi Huang brought the benefits of a country, boosted the ambition of Western Qin, destroyed the people to swallow the world, and only two generations died.

I hope that Your Majesty will learn from Yanhuang and not follow the first emperor, not with his own selfishness, but with the people as his mind, seize the material resources of the four seas and prosper China, open up the territory with the people of China, achieve the great cause of the emperor, and recreate the prosperous era of China! ”

Chongzhen was excited at first, but then he suddenly shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Aiqing, after the Qin and Han dynasties, the country has been unified and Confucianism and Taoism have prospered for more than a thousand years.

Occupy the center to be a barbarian, and be a vassal of grace in the upper country, uphold ethics and benevolence, and do good deeds and be loyal and filial.

The gentleman is righteous, the villain is profitable, even if the people's hearts are not ancient now, if you want to use the benefits of the world to turbulence the greed of the people, and drive the ambition of China with the wealth of the four seas, I am afraid it will be difficult to ascend to the sky.

Not to mention luring them to go to the country and leave home, abandon their homeland and operate overseas.

Aiqing didn't see Wang Zhi in the Jiajing period, called King Hui and was the Taishang of the Wa Kingdom, Hu Zongxian resolutely crossed the sea to return with a surrender document, so that his reputation was destroyed? ”

Qin Haoming nodded, Chongzhen was right.

In the Ming Dynasty, today's Han people are this hanging nature, focusing on the difficulty of leaving their homeland, and they are unwilling to go out to fight.

Not to mention Wang Zhi, even Zheng Zhilong is not the same.

Otherwise, if the envoy has some ambition and has more than 100,000 soldiers, why would he be manipulated by the Ming Governor? Why was he fooled by Dolgon, a governor of Fujian and Guangdong, and ended up with a tragic end of death?

PS: Thank you for Yuanbao's mother 111, the dragon blood fever, the family and the family are rewarded, and I am grateful for the gentlemen's kindness! The homeland is inseparable from the respectful!
