Chapter 279: Qifeng Rises
Wa State Sea.
A small island stands alone in the middle.
The young Zhu Di was dressed in a military uniform and stood on the reef with Hu Weiyong, looking at the land of the Japanese Kingdom in the distance.
"It is said that my father and the emperor have promulgated two new laws, which are called "New Marriage Law" and "New Official Management and Punishment Law" Zhu Di's eyes are full of admiration for his father Zhu Yuanzhang, "With these two new laws, the life of the people of the Ming Dynasty will be happier, the political style in the court will be more clear, and the corrupt officials who will harm the country and the people will become very few." ”
"With the happiness of the people's lives and the clear political style, the Ming dynasty will be more stable, and the dynasty will be stronger and more prosperous."
"Yes, good laws are the weapons of statecraft." Hu Weiyong said, "Legalism is more effective than Confucianism." ”
"When the Ming Dynasty is strong, there will be more treasury revenue. It will be used to make more Divine Muskets and Divine Cannons to support our conquest of the Wa Kingdom. There will also be a steady stream of food, grass and military salaries. Zhu Di said.
"With a strong imperial court and financial support behind him, generals who fight abroad will be more confident." Hu Weiyong said, "Soldiers are more brave and invincible in battle." ”
With Hu Weiyong's ability, of course, he knows very well the most basic truth that fighting a war is the country's strength.
"The country is strong, so that our food, grass, ordnance, and military pay are inexhaustible. The people in the country live happily, and the soldiers will be full of fighting spirit, after all, the families of the soldiers are in Daming. So a team like us is the division of tigers and wolves. ”
"On the contrary, if the internal situation is unstable and the people are not able to make a living, the imperial court will not even be able to pay the soldiers food. Even if the sergeants have experienced a hundred battles before, even if the generals leading the army are famous generals such as Han Xin Baiqi and Li Jing, it will be difficult to defeat the enemy. ”
"Not bad." Zhu Di nodded solemnly, "The future of my Ming Dynasty is getting brighter and brighter. ”
"The internal is rich and strong, the people are full of food and clothing, the people are full of happiness, pride and self-confidence. Expanding abroad and invincible, he conquered Uszang and Goryeo one after another and gained large territories. ”
"The father and emperor rebuilt the Han family, and survived and died."
"Now Mr. Qin is making the Han family rise and the peaks rise."
"So this is not only the rise of my Ming Dynasty, but also the unprecedented rise of the Han family."
"There is no one before, and there is no one after."
Seeing Zhu Di's admiration for his teacher Qin Yu so much, and raising him so high, Hu Weiyong shut up and didn't answer.
He is the No. 2 person in the Huaixi Group, and Qin Yu's public land system has greatly damaged the interests of him and the entire Huaixi Group. So Hu Weiyong originally hated Qin Yu very much.
It's just that because Emperor Zhu is protecting him, no one dares to touch Qin Yu.
Although he was angry, he couldn't get rid of it.
Now Zhu Yuanzhang has followed Qin Yu's advice and implemented the "Official Management and Punishment Law", which made the stage for their big players to cheat even smaller, so he was even more unhappy with Qin Yu.
However, although Hu Weiyong hated Qin Yu to the core, he had to admire it from the bottom of his heart.
The statecraft policies that Qin Yu asked Zhu Yuanzhang to implement before were all countless times better than them. Let him have to admire his amazing talent and unfathomable vast knowledge.
Moreover, Qin Yu's measures have really made Daming rich and strong, and made the people's lives rich.
In a very short period of time, a newly established Ming Dynasty was prosperous, rich and powerful, and the people were rich.
It can be said that it is truly beneficial to the country and the people.
And now, King Yan has also raised his credit to the height of the rise of the Han family.
made him feel that if he went against Qin Yu, he would be a little bit different.
If they want to deal with Qin Yu, it seems to be worse than Qin Hui. If anyone harms Qin Yu, I am afraid that they will be stinking for 10,000 years, and then they will be cast into an iron statue and kneel for thousands of years.
Therefore, Hu Weiyong's heart at the moment is extremely contradictory.
On the one hand, their own interests are damaged, and on the other hand, the rise of the Han family.
"Although the policies for governing the country were all offered by that person, if there is no wisdom and talent of His Majesty the Emperor today. No matter how clever and knowledgeable he is, he has no use. Hu Weiyong said lightly.
"Not bad." Regarding Hu Weiyong's point of view, Zhu Di also agreed, "That's why this king said that the sainthood of his father is rare in ancient and modern times." In short, the unprecedented rise of the Han family in the world, the talented father emperor and the pedantic Mr. Qin, both are indispensable. Can't say who is more important. Of course, our 'sharp swords' also have an indispensable role. ”
"Alright, let's not talk about that." Hu Weiyong didn't want to talk about Qin Yu anymore, "His Royal Highness King Yan, what do you think about the current situation of the conquest of the Wa Kingdom?" ”
"The Great Ming Sailor could have landed on the land of the Wa Kingdom a long time ago, but His Royal Highness ordered to suspend the attack, could it be that he was waiting for them to come and ask for surrender?"
"It's impossible to get them to surrender." Zhu Di thought for a while and said, "The nation of the Wa Kingdom is trapped on a small island. It is surrounded by the sea and has little arable land inside. ”
"As a result, the Japanese people are inferior and murderous in their bones."
"They are like hyenas that have been trapped in a cage for a long time, baring their teeth at everyone. Once they're released from the cage, they'll be so brutal that they'll leave everyone with no bones left. ”
"The Wa Kingdom has always coveted our Central Plains Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty sent Tang envoys, and the Han Dynasty accepted the gold seal of the Han Dynasty. looks extremely docile, but in fact, they are all enduring humiliation. They will not be grateful to any country that has helped them, such as the Tang Dynasty that taught them culture. Once the power is broken out of the cage, even the 'motherland' will not let go. ”
"So this time, even if the whole country is broken, they will not surrender."
"Not bad." Hu Weiyong said, "Throughout the history of the Central Plains Dynasty and the Wa Kingdom, they are such an existence. ”
"His Royal Highness King Yan, you said that the Wa Kingdom is a hyena, so what is our Huaxia Dynasty?" Hu Weiyong asked again.
"Dragons without a doubt." Zhu Di said, "Many people think that dragons are fake, because even we ourselves have never seen them with our own eyes. But our Huaxia Dynasty is indeed a dragon. ”
"The history is too long, too mysterious, and there are many mysteries, thinking about the unity of heaven and man, the culture of yin and yang and the five elements."
"These are similar to the dragon that sees the head but does not see the end."
"And the ancient legend that we are dragons has been passed down for thousands of years, it is undeniable, and there are dragon totems everywhere."
"So we are not rabbits, let alone heroes, but ethereal dragons that seem to not exist, but can soar in the sky."
"If we are the descendants of Yan and Huang, if we can get the scale and half claw of the dragon, it is enough to laugh at the world."
