Chapter 599: What is Wen Tianxiang doing? The fourth update
There is a change in the evening, so try to upload it before 10 o'clock
On February 19 of the Jiazi year of the Ming Dynasty, outside the victory gate of Yanjing, the crowds were crowded.
Starting from the first month of this year, the Northern Ming regime established by Chen Dexing no longer uses the name of the Southern Song Dynasty Xianchun year, but uses the Jiazi year instead - because Chen Dexing has not yet been called the emperor, it is naturally not good to build the Yuan - this year is exactly the year of Jiazi, so it is now the 19th day of February in the year of Jiazi of the Ming Dynasty.
If you follow the Western era, it is 1264, which is the 7th year that Chen Dexing's soul has crossed over.
In just 7 years, a vibrant empire has been created by him! Such an achievement can not but be said to be a miracle in the vast river of history!
Although this grass-created country is very imperfect in all aspects, all kinds of systems have only a framework, and the territory firmly controlled is only Liaoning, Hebei, Kaifeng, Luoyang and other places along the Yellow River, as well as Quanzhou, Zhoushan and Taiwan Island in the south.
It seems that it is still quite far away from dominating the world, but the most dangerous and ferocious enemy in the history of the Chinese nation, the Great Mongolia, has been forced out of the Central Plains by the newborn Chen Ming!
And the residents of this Yanjing City are the ones who know the power and ferocity of Great Mongolia best. In their opinion, Chen Dexing, who can force Mongolia away, is undoubtedly the true son of the whole of China.
And the emergence of the true son of heaven often means that the world will be stable, and the prosperous era will appear in a few decades, and it also means that these people who were born in troubled times and grew up in adversity. You can enjoy the world of Chengping that you didn't dare to hope for.
People who have been through troubled times for a long time are often easily satisfied. A king who can bring them peace and security. Even if he is a tyrant, even if his style of acting deviates from the tradition of China for thousands of years. They can also accept it gladly - no matter how out of line Chen Dexing is, he is still the king of China!
Moreover, Chen Dexing's actions such as being a knight, selling the gentry, promoting aristocrats, and being a master of the imperial examination have nothing to do with the people of the north. However, Chen Ming has a good way of managing his finances, paying taxes lightly and serving as a servant, so that the people of Yandi, who have suffered for decades, live a relatively easy life and have more hope for the future.
This person's heart naturally belongs to Chenming!
From top to bottom, Yanjing heard that Chen Dexing had returned triumphantly. Everyone was disturbed. There is no need for Yanjing's government organization, all of them spontaneously took to the streets to cheer for their true destiny. It made this big city with only a hundred thousand inhabitants (the city is very large and there are few people) become prosperous and lively in an instant.
The Heavenly Daoist Sect of Yanjing Mansion has organized many Taoists today to set up a Heavenly Dao Dharma Meeting outside the South Gate of Yanjing, which was renamed the Victory Gate, and the souls of the dead who died in battle ascended to Heaven. All the tablets of the soldiers of the Ming Army and the Tang Army (Li Yanguo's Department) who died in the last few battles will be held by the soldiers and officers of the Guards Army, and they will arrive in Yanjing first. After the Heavenly Dao Festival, it was sent to the Loyal Martyrs' Palace in Yanjing City to be enshrined - the Battle of Baohe (the first battle after Chen Dexing's soul pierced). All the tablets of the martyrs who died in the battle with Chen Dexing are enshrined in the Martyrs' Palace. The Heavenly Taoist Sect is responsible for the sacrifice, and the descendants enjoy the respect and incense from generation to generation.
And all the coffins of the martyrs will be transported back to Yanjing later. In Yanjing and Ming, there are two large cemeteries of martyrs - of course. It is also managed by the Heavenly Daoist Sect.
And that aspiring Liu Minzhong has also arrived in Yanjing now, he has not starved to death, but has become the lowest-level Tsing Yi Taoist in the Heavenly Taoist Sect. The color of the clothes of the Taoist people of the Heavenly Taoist Sect is particular. The white garment was the highest, and only the Ming king Chen Dexing and the envoys of Heaven were qualified to wear it, and these people were later called "white bishops" by the Western Semu people. Under the white clothes. In order, they are purple, red, blue, and green. Tsing Yi Taoist, also known as trainee Taoist, is an informal Taoist who is still in training.
Liu Minzhong was a trainee Taoist - which is why he did not starve to death. He was dying of starvation. I found this way of life. And that night was something he will never forget.
At that time, he had been hungry for three days, and his clothes and shoes had been changed. He just picked up a few sacks and put them on his body, wrapped his feet in sackcloth, and sat down outside a Taoist temple in a daze, just waiting to starve to death.
But just when he was about to die, he suddenly heard a crisp and pleasant female voice calling his name again, and smelling the aroma of food. With his last bit of strength, he climbed into the Heavenly Dao Temple following the sound, and then he saw a long table full of food, so he sat down without saying a word......
As a result, there was a girl named Xiao Ai who looked very smart and wore a blue Taoist robe (it was the Xiao Ai next to Chen Dexing, she had just graduated from Tiandao Academy, and was sent by Mo Yingniang to Tanggu City to be responsible for lecturing the newly recruited Taoist apprentices.
And Liu Minzhong did not refuse this last way of life, and after a few months of training, he also obtained the qualification of a trainee Taoist with quite excellent results. This time, I followed Xiao Ai Daogu to Yanjing to meet Chen Dexing - because Xiao Ai Daogu sent him a messenger who seemed to have no return.
Xiao Ai recommended him to participate in the second Mingzhou expedition......
"Liu Daoren, have you seen King Ming's army? Did they come? "Little Ai Daogu is good at everything, she is beautiful, she has a good temper, and her breasts are quite big, but the only drawback is that she is a little shorter. The people on the street were layered on top of each other, blocking her view, and even if she stood on tiptoe, she couldn't see the vast crowd of people coming. I can only keep asking Liu Minzhong, who is tall next to me.
"When I arrived, I saw that many silver-armored soldiers were holding the spiritual position, and the team leader couldn't look at it! I didn't expect that so many heroes and martyrs sacrificed their lives for the country in this battle, and it was really a success......
Liu Minzhong's words were very emotional, and his feelings were a little complicated for the Ming in front of him. I don't know how many times, he has seen a world without Ming in his dreams! That world was unified by the Mongol Khan Kublai Khan, and all the Han people became slaves, and the most humble fourth-class south was established under the rank of third-class Han. The fate of the Han people is extremely tragic, but he, Liu Minzhong, became a great official of the Yuan Dynasty because of Confucianism, so he is not prestigious......
"These heroes have all ascended to heaven and become immortals!" Xiao Ai Daogu seemed to hear the abnormality in Liu Minzhong's words, and said to him seriously, "This time, if you capsize on the Mingzhou Road, you will ascend to heaven and become an immortal like them!" ”
This one...... Liu Minzhong smiled bitterly, this little Aidao aunt who is said to have slept with Chen Dexing doesn't talk through the brain!
"Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow at the latest, His Royal Highness King Ming will summon you, and you are not allowed to talk nonsense at that time!"
Xiao Ai Daogu reminded seriously again.
The summoning was arranged by Mo Yingniang, and the location was in the Heavenly Dao Palace in Yanjing City. Chen Dexing would summon all the members of the second Mingzhou expedition and give them a banquet to make a grand debut - because there was no news of the first Mingzhou expedition so far, the morale of the second Mingzhou expedition was a little low......
……
"No news yet?" Chen Dexing was still sitting in the carriage, but the people accompanying him had become Mo Yingniang and Ren Yijiang.
Zhao Fu pondered "Chen Li" in his carriage, and Li Cuixian went to Daizhou City.
Mo Yingniang replied in a low voice: "King Ming, Mingzhou is far away, and the situation is unknown...... Or maybe something happened to them that delayed them. Didn't you also allow them to act at the opportunity in the order you gave to Zhou Xiaoqi and Mengqi? ”
Chen Dexing frowned slightly, but didn't say much. Exploring the New World is inherently risky, and there is nothing for dead ones! There's really nothing ...... Chen Dexing, the right son of heaven doesn't care about the dead at all. I just think it's a pity that Wen Tianxiang, who "kept Dan's heart and sweat", drowned in the Pacific Ocean for no apparent reason.
Mo Ying Niang paused, and then whispered: "The men and horses of the second expedition have been recruited, there are two hundred and ten people, and they are on two 3,000 stone loads...... The boats are specially reinforced to withstand wind and waves. The food and fresh water loaded on the ship are enough for the crew to stay at sea for 100 days. ”
Of course, 100 days is not needed! Chen Dexing thought to himself that as long as he did not encounter extremely strong storms, he would set off from Japan to the Americas in a maximum of forty or fifty days. But if there is a strong wind, then it is a dead end.
"King, why don't you hold another festival and pray for the blessing of the First Mingzhou Expedition."
"So be it!" Chen Dexing nodded and said, "It will be held tonight, and King Gu will personally go to the Heavenly Dao Palace to preside over with you." ”
The prayer ceremony co-chaired by King Chen Ming and Mo Ying Niang was truly unprecedented. That Wen Tianxiang is drowned in the Pacific Ocean, and he can also be blinded.
Thinking of this, Chen Dexing turned his head and Ren Yijiang again and began to talk about Feng Shijue: "Million...... Before the lone king became the emperor, he still had to be crowned a knight. After the seal is completed this time, the number of knights should be around 250,000. 250,000 people, with an average of about 600 acres of grange...... That's 150 million acres! The distribution of Zhuangzi is an important matter, and it must be done well. It can't all be sent to the riverside and Liaodong. Henan, Hedong, and Guanzhong are all to be distributed. As evenly divided as possible, it will be easier for us to have a firm grasp of the Northland.
In addition, we will further expand the army, one is the local army...... There are several governors' palaces, all of which are to govern the army. One is to add a few new armies, and the Son of Heaven should have six armies. In addition to the upper, middle, and lower armies, there were also three armies, the front army was reorganized from the troops under the jurisdiction of the Daimyo Prefecture, the rear army was expanded by Li Xiong's troops, and the Guards army was expanded based on the Guards Division and the Guards Infantry Division. All newly recruited soldiers were to be given fields. The Military Affairs Department should also make arrangements to disperse the granting sites as much as possible, because these people may be crowned in the future. Let Ann spread the Northland and become the foundation of the Great Tomorrow. (To be continued......)
