Chapter 229: This is basically to destroy the country and destroy the species!
Zhu Yuanzhang picked up the secret letter and saw the signatures on it, which were Li Jin and Zhu Biao, respectively, and couldn't help but show curiosity.
Then open MeSign and start to view.
"Sunshoot plan?"
After Zhu Yuanzhang read it, he immediately became interested in this so-called sun-shooting plan.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang is still very cautious in such a large-scale use of troops, not to mention the Wa Island, which has not set foot in this part of China for nearly a thousand years.
The unfamiliarity with Wadao made Zhu Yuanzhang hesitate a little, and then ordered to the little yellow door beside him:
"Go and bring Liu Bowen and invite us over."
Then he thought about it again and added:
"Invite Cao Guogong over as well."
The little yellow gate took the order and left.
Cao Guogong of the Ming Dynasty is Zhu Yuanzhang's nephew Li Wenzhong.
When Li Wenzhong was fourteen years old, he followed Zhu Yuanzhang and was adopted by Zhu Yuanzhang as an adopted son and taught carefully.
It was from this moment that Li Wenzhong began to carry a knife and follow Zhu Yuanzhang to help him cut people.
Zhu Yuanzhang also trusted this nephew very much, and by the time Li Wenzhong reached the age of 20, he was already brave and good at fighting, and he was the head of all generals.
Attack Chen Youliang and kill Zhang Shicheng, Li Wenzhong is everywhere.
In the third year of Hongwu, Li Wenzhong led an army of 100,000 to the north of Yehuling, attacked Mobei Mongolia, returned with a great victory, and captured more than 30,000 Mongolian Pingzhang and his subordinates, and countless cattle and sheep.
In the fourth year of Hongwu, Fu Youde pacified Sichuan, and Zhu Yuanzhang sent Li Wenzhong to raise the army, build new cities such as Chengdu, stabilize the people, recruit displaced people, and Sichuan was stabilized.
Zhu Yuanzhang has many famous generals, but Li Wenzhong is definitely a very brilliant one.
Both civil and military, can cut people on the horse, and can govern the people when dismounted, which is a real civil and military shuangquan, and is very loved by Zhu Yuanzhang.
This time, Zhu Yuanzhang also wanted to ask Li Wenzhong's opinion to see if the large-scale use of troops against Wadao could be implemented.
Soon, Liu Bowen and Li Wenzhong were taken to the upper study by Xiao Huangmen.
"Meet the Emperor (Ascendant)"
The two bowed down at the same time and saluted Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Let's be flat."
Zhu Yuanzhang was very interested, did not beat around the bush, and said directly:
"We have a letter here, I want you to refer to it for us in detail, see what is in the letter, whether it will be done?"
As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang handed the letter to the eunuch next to him and gave it to Liu Bowen and the others.
Liu Bowen thought that it might be an overseas matter, but Li Wenzhong was a little puzzled and didn't know why.
The two picked up the letter and began to read it together.
As a result, after watching it for a long time, Li Wenzhong was still a little puzzled, but Liu Bowen next to him was already shocked.
This is clearly a poisonous plan to destroy the country and exterminate the species.
It's just aimed at the country and race of the island, which can't help but make Liu Bowen frightened, and he hurriedly objected:
"Your Majesty, this move is really hurtful to the peace of the heavens, it is not the work of a big country, please don't agree to it!"
Li Wenzhong had deeper doubts in his heart, and he didn't understand what Liu Bowen and Zhu Yuanzhang were talking about.
Zhu Yuanzhang sat on the dragon chair, he had already guessed that Liu Bowen would react in this way, and there was not much ripple on his face.
Instead, he asked:
"Berwyn, let's call you, not to ask you if this thing will hurt the heavens and peace, we just want to ask you, is this sun-shooting plan reliable?"
"Can you destroy Wajima in three months?"
Wajima? Isn't that a small island overseas?
When Li Wenzhong heard this, he finally had some eyebrows in his heart, and it turned out that he wanted to kill this small country.
It's just that Wajima isn't far overseas? Can cavalry destroy them?
With curiosity, Li Wenzhong pricked up his ears again, wanting to hear what Liu Bowen had to say.
Liu Bowen was full of confusion, and after thinking for a long time, he said slowly:
"Yes, yes."
"It's just that this move will exterminate millions of Japanese people on the island, which is really too sensational."
"Throughout my Chinese history, this kind of thing has never happened, look at the emperor..."
"Alright."
Zhu Yuanzhang directly stretched out his hand and interrupted:
"What do you mean by exterminating millions of Japanese people?"
"Let's just let those Japanese people migrate to the Central Plains of China, not exterminate them."
"We are in the Ming Dynasty, with fertile land, beautiful scenery and suitable environment, which is a good place for them to live and thrive."
"I don't know how many times better than on their barren islands?"
"Let's let them come to live here for their good, how can you say it from your mouth, we will become a tyrant who destroys other countries and destroys other species?"
Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, even Li Wenzhong couldn't help but pout.
What is clearly written on the secret letter is to let these millions of natives become the labor of the Ming Dynasty and act as free labor for the Ming Dynasty.
To put it bluntly, it's a slave, the kind who doesn't have to pay for just work.
Is this also considered mercy?
Liu Bowen wanted to persuade again, but Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Li Wenzhong and asked:
"Cao Guogong, what do you think?"
Li Wenzhong did not answer Zhu Yuanzhang directly, but asked first:
"Superior, the minister has something unclear, and I want to ask the superior."
"Dare to ask the superiors, why do you want to attack Wajima?"
In Li Wenzhong's view, a barren island thousands of miles away is not qualified to enter the eyes of the Ming Dynasty at all.
It is not worthy of such fanfare to attack Wajima, just let the natives on Wajima fend for themselves, why bother so much?
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his face suddenly showed a righteous and awe-inspiring look, and he said in a deep voice:
"The Japanese country is cunning, and he dares to secretly send warriors to lurk in the Daming Sea, disturb our Daming Sea Frontier, and kill our Daming people."
"It's tolerable, it's intolerable, this kind of despicable country has no meaning at all."
"It is in order to avenge the people of the Ming Dynasty that we must destroy this country."
"Those who dare to offend me will be punished by the world!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's words were loud and deafening, and it seemed that he was completely on the side of morality.
But Li Wenzhong, who is familiar with his uncle's character, knows that things can never be so simple.
Unconsciously looked at Liu Bowen next to him, Liu Bowen had no choice but to whisper:
"Wajima is rich in silver mines."
In a word, he directly woke up Li Wenzhong, it turned out that it was for money, no wonder his uncle looked like he was going to fight desperately with Wajima.
If it's for the silver mines, then it's fine, there's nothing wrong with it.
It's just that the two of them don't know that in Zhu Biao's diary, it's not just a silver mine, but also rich in gold.
Zhu Biao even marked the location of Jinshan on the fold, which made Zhu Yuanzhang ecstatic and made up his mind to exterminate the Japanese state.
Although Liu Bowen's voice was small, in the lonely upper study, it clearly reached Zhu Yuanzhang's ears.
Glaring at Liu Bowen, Zhu Yuanzhang pretended to cough dryly, and said with some embarrassment:
"Cao Guogong, what do you think of this plan?"
"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know much about Wajima, so he doesn't dare to put his beak casually."
Li Wenzhong lightly arched his hand and said:
"But now the Northern Yuan Dynasty has begun to move again, and it may go south again at any time."
"If the elite of the Beijing camp is transferred, it is likely to give Beiyuan an opportunity."
"Why don't you send some guards, turn them into sailors, and then transfer them to Wajima."
"When the time comes, if they really occupy Wajima, they can still let these people open a guard post on Wajima."
"Self-sufficient, completely rooted in Wajima."
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his fingers began to tap lightly on the table, and then he looked at Liu Bowen and said:
"Berwyn, you just said that this matter is feasible, and you can explain to us why the Japanese kingdom can be destroyed in March?"
Liu Bowen was entangled again, he really didn't want Daming to send troops, after all, no matter how he said it, it was millions of lives.
If the plan is carried out according to the plan, then none of these millions of widows will survive in the end.
This also means that he, Liu Bowen, may be an accomplice in the massacre of millions of people.
But when Liu Bowen saw Zhu Yuanzhang's increasingly cold eyes, he finally chose to retreat and said softly:
"The most important point in the feasibility of this matter is that Wajima is now in the midst of infighting, and we can profit from it and have a lot to do."
