Since entering the West Garden, Wen Wen has been frightened a lot, so much so that he feels that he should have adapted to this place, and he will not lose his temper even if he sees something weird. [Full text reading]

However, when he entered the lobby of the military academy and looked at it, he was still stunned and stunned, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"Brother Wen? Brother Feng? ”

"Brother Zu, this is ......"

"Sandbox."

Looking at the huge sand table in the middle of the hall, Zu Dahuan's eyes were a little fluttering, "This is also designed by Hou Ye, and now it has begun to be promoted in the military academy. ”

"I see...... on the sand table, the mountains and rivers are specific and subtle, Leng Ding saw that the gentleness seemed to have a feeling that the world was in the palm of his hand, which really made him feel inexplicable.

"Sure enough, Brother Wen, don't you see that northeast corner, isn't it the terrain of Jizhen and Liaodong? Shanhaiguan, Santunying, and Yanshan are all on it, looking at the size of the distance, it seems to be the same as the actual situation! Feng Cheng's eyes were sharp, and he immediately found the places he was most familiar with in the sand table.

"Brother Feng Xian is right." Thinking of the interview with Xie Hong at Shanhaiguan, his gentle expression was a little trance-like.

At that time, the other party asked a lot about the geography of Jizhen, and originally he thought it was just a means to win people's hearts, but he didn't want the other party to really ask for advice, and he turned the information he got into the kind of ...... in front of him At first glance, it seems unbelievable, but after the initial shock is gone, it is taken for granted.

Is there anything more suitable for deducing military operations than this thing in front of you? Even if you haven't been to the local area at all, you don't know much about military affairs, and you can still get enough information from the sand table.

The emperor who trains troops to fight the genius, and the close ministers who have whimsical and miraculous skills, no wonder they can make those scheming scholars and doctors in the capital hit the wall many times, such a combination is really respectable and terrifying!

Wen Wen's earlier thoughts were a little shaken, just listening to the rumors, it is difficult to have enough understanding of the two monarchs and ministers, and after seeing them with their own eyes, they will really understand how magical those two are, it's just ...... After all, they are still monarchs and ministers, can they survive the current crisis? Mildness still has some doubts.

"Look, you two, there are still a lot of local sand tables in the four corners of this lobby, although they are smaller, but they are more detailed." Wen Wen's heart was full of thoughts, but he was very deep in the city, but his face was silent, of course Zu Dahuan couldn't see it, but he did his job as a tour guide and introduced the two of them one by one.

"The sand table is not only for people to see, there is also a kind of war game, which is specially used to deduce military operations on it, the emperor intends to divide the academy into several departments, and the strategically talented cadets will be listed as the staff department, in addition to the logistics department, the war department and so on......"

With Zu Dahuan's further introduction, Feng Cheng was amazed, gentle and nodded, these settings were unheard of by them, but there was no obstacle to understanding, but they felt that they should be like this, and there was even a feeling that they hadn't thought of it earlier.

By the time Zu Dahuan stopped, the two of them already had a complete understanding of the Military Academy, and they no longer felt that this was just a place to play with the emperor.

Although it has not been established for a long time, it is still immature, and many details are also lacking, but with the addition of generals like himself and generals in the army, these things will be perfected sooner or later.

And mildness also has a hunch that as long as he is not cut in half, the military academy will sooner or later raise the military strength of Daming to the peak, and at the same time, it will also make the status of the martial artist have a earth-shaking change, he firmly believes.

Zu Dahuan stopped and also stopped the introduction, Wen Shang Jue was still unsatisfied, but when he looked up, he found the reason why the other party stopped. I saw that next to a sand table not far away, there were two people talking about something, one of them was a young man in a yellow robe, his eyes were smart, and he was obviously the main person to meet on this trip, Emperor Zhu Houzhao of the Ming Dynasty.

"Ryukyu envoy, come and see, this is the chart of the East China Sea, oh, this is Tianjin, now the port has been opened, it is my royal port, when you return, you don't have to go so troublesome to detour to Jiangnan, start from here, go straight to Weihaiwei, and then take Jeju Island, you can return to Ryukyu soon." Zhengde said triumphantly.

"Your Majesty's benevolent heart really makes the little envoy grateful, but Your Majesty, the tributary ......of the Ryukyus" The Ryukyu envoy was very depressed, what was there to care about on the return trip? He wished he could stay in Daming for a while.

Of course, this must be after receiving the reward. Although Daming is good, it is not possible to do it without money.

In the past, when paying tribute, most of them could only see the holy car from afar in the Taihe Palace, because they did not dare to raise their heads to offend, so when the court meeting ended, the envoys did not know what the Ming Emperor looked like, but they were very familiar with the officials of the Ministry of Rites who were responsible for the reception.

This time, the standard of the reception was suddenly raised, and it was actually received by the Emperor Ming in person, but the minister was not happy at all.

First of all, the place of reception, he didn't have a good impression of this military academy at all, as soon as he entered the West Garden, he was startled by the soldiers and horses in the exercise, where did he see this formation in the Ryukyus? Thousands of people lined up, advancing and retreating as if they were one person, this scene was really terrifying!

In fact, the current king of the Ryukyus, Shang Zhen, is also a big ambition, otherwise he would not have sent troops to attack those miniature kingdoms in the Yaeyama Islands. But how many soldiers can there be in that small place in the Ryukyus? Even if all the troops are mobilized, there are only a few thousand soldiers and horses, and there are many old and weak among them, where can they compare with the momentum of the Guards?

Therefore, as soon as the envoy entered the door, he was frightened, and then he was even more surprised. Of course, the most troublesome thing is not these, the key is that the Ming Emperor has been proudly introducing his academy, and he doesn't mention the matter of giving back at all, which is completely incomparable with the officials of the Ministry of Rites.

Every time I think of the latter's kindness and kindness, and generosity, the Ryukyu envoys have the urge to burst into tears, the Ming Emperor is really as out of tune as the legend, don't you know that the envoys come to the Ming Dynasty, are all for the wealth and generosity of the Ming Dynasty? If you can't make money, who will pay tribute to which family, who is far away from the ocean!

The envoys know very well that the Ming Dynasty has always pursued the policy of sea ban, and the Ryukyus are in the depths of the East China Sea, so there is no need to look at the face of the Ming Dynasty at all.

Zhengde waved his hand impatiently: "What's there to worry about that kind of trivial matter?" In the future, it will be very convenient to come to the Ming Dynasty from the Ryukyus, and the envoys do not know, now that I have established a royal fleet, which is now stationed here and here, and will continue to the south next year, and then we will reach the Ryukyus, and then the Ryukyus will be under protection, and there is more important a reward than this? ”

The Ming Dynasty set up a fleet?

And here it is...... Hearing several key words, the envoy's attention finally shifted, and when he followed Jeongdeok's guidance and looked at the sand table again, his sweat came down and was stationed on Fujiang Island and Jeju Island? Then head south...... Isn't that the Ryukyus?

"You know, this year, my fleet defeated the Korean navy, the Japanese navy, and a pirate fleet...... There is no doubt about the strength, and next year, no, maybe this winter, we will reach the Ryukyus, and then the envoys will be able to see my fleet. The more Zhengde spoke, the more energetic he became, and he smiled like a few treasures.

"......" is still a battleship, the envoy was shocked again, the sweat on his forehead trickled down, and he even forgot about the reciprocal thing, it was terrible, Daming suddenly opened the sea ban, set up a fleet, and look at this posture to expand!

Daming is the most powerful country in the world, if it expands, can it be repaid? Who can resist it? Sure enough, I have to go back to China as soon as possible, inform the king, and let him not change his wrong thoughts, with the strength of the Ming Dynasty, if you deal with Ryukyu, it is easier than pinching a fly to death, and if you are not careful, I am afraid it will be the disaster of the country.

Glancing at the envoy, Zhengde asked in surprise: "Hey, why did the envoy sweat so much?" Is it tired? That's why it's not okay to not exercise all the time, so your body will be weak......"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern...... Can the envoy retire first? "The envoy is respectful on his face, but he is very angry in his heart, how can I be weak? It's just a weak heart, is it good to be scared by you? Don't you know that Ryukyu is a small place and very remote?

Zhengde said very generously: "That's it, that's a pity, okay, I can't be strong, then let's stop here today, give back or something, go back and let someone write you a note, you go to the ordnance department, it's all a native product of the capital, you don't have to be polite." ”

Sincerely, Zhengde will bring the envoys here, not to scare people, but just to show off his achievements to others out of the heart of a young man.

In Zhu Houzhao's opinion, his greatest achievement is the Military Academy and the Guards, of course, the baseball team in Koshien is also the same, but that thing is a bit high-tech, and the soil buns from Ryukyu may not be understood.

Therefore, the empathetic Masantoku specifically talked about the fleet, since the Ryukyus are an island country, of course they will be interested in ships, and as a suzerain, shouldn't they provide protection to the subject countries? It's much more important than giving something back.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty......" is finally relieved, and there is a reward to take, the envoy burst into tears, but, the Ordnance Division? What is this place? Could it be that the Ming Emperor intends to give back some armor? That's not unacceptable, even if you can't use it, you can sell it.
