Chapter 149: It's hard to settle!

The name of Zheng He, the eunuch of the Three Treasures, Li Yunze had heard of it when he was in school.

This is a real hero, who created the king explosion of the Ming Dynasty and the era of exploration.

Zheng He's original surname is Ma, and because of his meritorious service in the Battle of Jingjing, Zhu Di gave him the surname Zheng.

After he entered the palace, Li Yunze gave him considerable courtesy.

Not only did he go out to greet him, but he immediately gave him tea when he entered the imperial study.

Seeing that the sand table that had been removed before was carried back again, Zheng He also smiled.

"Zheng Companion." Li Yunze beckoned him to come to the sand table, stretched out his hand and pointed to a certain port, "This is Daming, after your fleet goes to sea, follow this route all the way south... Over the Lion Country... It's a bundle of wood and bones here, right? ”

"Yes." Zheng He, who looked carefully at the map on the sand table, was surprised by the fineness of this sand table, and even many places he had never seen or visited.

"You'll go over again this time." Li Yunze's hand pointed to the area of Mogadishu, which is the area of Mogadishu, and pointed northward, "From here all the way to the north, cross this strait and enter the Red Sea..."

"The Red Sea?"

"Yes, I heard that there is a lot of red algae in the sea here, and it looks like the whole sea has turned red."

Li Yunze explained, but his hands did not stop, and he kept drawing lines upward, "Don't care about the desert on both sides of the strait, go all the way north to here." ”

His finger tapped at a very narrow spot on the sand table with the sea up and down.

Zheng He was puzzled by this, "Judging from the distance, it is not too far away from the wooden bones, and it should be able to drive over." But what did you do in the past? ”

"Open the canal."

Li Yunze said solemnly: "Gather the locals, no matter what method you use to summon them, you must gather enough people to open a canal connecting the two seas." And they will build a city there, and keep soldiers and horses there. ”

"This way." Li Yunze's finger pressed on the most marginal position on the west side of the sand table, "This is a large plain land, with big rivers flowing and extremely rich. Not only can it provide enough food and water, but also enough manpower support. ”

"All you have to do is occupy this place, and then build a city and dig a canal."

Zheng He wanted to know why he wanted to go to a remote country thousands of miles away to occupy the land, but since it was the emperor's order, he had no choice but to obey without the slightest surprise.

"Of course, there is a reason to occupy this place."

Li Yunze took the initiative to explain to him: "The sea in the north is the inland sea where Taixi Daqin is mentioned in ancient books. Along the way, the rest of the country is a real backcountry, and although there are good things, there is no large-scale trade. ”

Zheng He's fleet went to the South Seas and ran to the West.

There are countless countries of all sizes along the way, and all kinds of specialties are naturally available.

But most of these specialties are spices, precious stones, precious wood, jade agate, seafood and other materials.

It is certain that the transaction will be shipped back to make money, otherwise it will not attract the jealousy of the civil officials and will burn the treasure ship blueprints.

Speaking of which, Li Yunze did one thing before, that is, to arrange Liu Renzhai, the son of Liu Daxia, into the list of Yang Rong and others.

It's not even a chance to be born for that dog.

This kind of business can't be done for a long time, it can only be done once in a while.

After all, the consumption capacity is limited, and those who can consume these things must not be ordinary people's homes.

What's more, among the countries in the South and Western Oceans, there are basically poor jingles, and there are even savage countries.

Daming's silk, tea, porcelain or something, can't be sold at all.

"This side of the sea." Li Yunze's fingers connected the dots: "There are many countries, and they are extremely rich. Our goods can be sold to them to make money and do business. ”

Doing business is only one aspect, but more importantly, it is the military aspect.

It's just that it's too early to say this, and it's not necessary.

Zheng He carefully inspected the sand table, measured the distance with tools, and calculated the time and distance in his mind.

Finally, he got up and saluted Li Yunze, "Your Majesty, the minister receives the order." It's just that it's thousands of miles away, and I don't know how many accidents there will be during the journey, and the preliminary preparation work must be detailed, and the cost is huge. ”

"There's nothing to worry about."

Li Yunze immediately said: "The whole army is looking for those who are willing to move their families to the past, and they will be given subsidies and local land and housing arrangements." Build a brand new sea ship, the one with a large one. All kinds of logistical supplies are given priority, and important people are given to people and things. I have decided to issue another issue of Tuohai Treasury Bonds, specifically to support you. ”

Zheng He was greatly moved, and saluted repeatedly, "The ministers must occupy this place for Your Majesty, and you must build this canal for Your Majesty!" ”

"Hmm."

Li Yunze stepped forward to help him up, "This is a long project, and the fleet may have to go back and forth several times." Before the canal is built, you must occupy your foothold, and the support from the imperial court will not stop. The distance between the two seas is not too far, so you can start your business first. ”

"As for the canal after it was built, it was called Suez... No, it's called the West Canal of the Town! ”

"Minister, take the order!"

Zheng He, who is full of energy, went to sea to be busy with the affairs of going to sea, and it is estimated that it will take at least two or three years to make the trip this time.

Because the scale is too large, it is much larger than the previous six voyages to the West.

Li Yunze will also give him tremendous technical support, such as various navigation tools, long-range radio communications, and so on.

After finishing this matter, Li Yunze found Yu Qian.

"Your Majesty, this is the method of three roundings."

After reading the tie that Li Yunze gave him, Yu Qian immediately knew what he was talking about.

"I know it's a three-way approach." Li Yunze stretched out his hand and pointed at him, "I want to repeat this method." ”

The so-called three-rounding method is one of the projects of Wang Anshi's reform.

It is to replace the imperial examination with school education, which can be regarded as an earth-shattering change.

Cai Jing's three-rounding rule was improved, and the three-rounding method, which was originally limited to Taixue, was extended to the state capital.

Li Yunze's side has made certain changes.

First of all, the county school, students must first go to the county school to go to school, and then those who get excellent results in the annual examination go to the state capital to go to school.

After that, the school here in the state capital also selects those with excellent grades through examinations and goes to Taixue.

When you come to Taixue, it is divided into three categories: outer house, inner house, and upper house.

"The upper class is an official, the middle is exempt from the ministry test, and the lower class is exempt from the solution."

To put it bluntly, it is to determine the origin and confer official positions through continuous examinations, so that the imperial examination develops in the direction of simplification and practicality.

It is already somewhat similar to the national examination of later generations.

Li Yunze was not interested at all in the poems, scriptures and Moyi in the imperial examination, as well as any eight-strand texts.

Most of these ministers, who were elected through the imperial examinations, were incompetent.

However, the educational examination can implement relevant education in a targeted manner, and its practicality is far above that of the imperial examination.

"Your Majesty." Yu Qian, who frowned, began to say the difficulty: "The Eight Imperial Examinations are the Emperor's Decree..."

"Change!"

"Your Majesty." Yu Qian sighed again and again, "If you do the three rounding method, you will abolish the imperial examination, and the scholars in the world will inevitably make noise." ”

"Whoever makes a noise will be killed. If the Tartars dare to behead, they dare not speak, but I don't dare? Li Yunze said something that Yu Qian couldn't understand, "Now is a good time to promote this matter." ”

As soon as he said this, Yu Qian was also slightly stunned.

The Chinese courtiers of the DPRK suffered a heavy blow, and the case of the abolition of the prince was widely implicated, and it can even be compared with the Hu Weiyong case and the Lan Yu case of that year.

This incident is a good time for the ministers to be most nervous, and Li Yunze to speak and say everything.

Whoever opposes it at this time can easily take it down by simply putting it on the same party list.

In this way, few people really dare to oppose it.

And this majesty really dares to use a knife.

"I'll leave this matter to you." Li Yunze directly pushed the matter to Yu Qian's head, "Arrange it quickly and quickly, who dares to oppose direct disposal!" ”

Da Ming is too generous to readers.

Where it is like a Tartar, those who oppose this and that, all of them are cut off, and after that no one objected.

The scholars of the Ming Dynasty even picked out the words to make a scholar who does not have to pay taxes, and can also cover up other people's land and property that does not have to pay taxes.

Li Yunze has long seen that they are not pleasing to the eye, and he will definitely not be merciful when he has the opportunity.

After arranging this matter, Li Yunze summoned Fan Zhong.

The young Fan Zhong had been serving as the general of the Protector Army, that is, the commander of Zhu Di's forbidden army.

After Zhu Di's death, he followed Li Yunze and has always shown loyalty.

Li Yunze also knew that he was loyal, because in history he shouted in Tumu Fort, 'I will get rid of this thief for the world!' 'The one who killed the eunuch Wang Zhen with a hammer was Fan Zhong. biquge.biz

In the end, he called the god of war to escape in order to cover the door, and was killed by random arrows in a desperate battle.

Such a loyal person, Li Yunze will naturally be reused.

"I'm going to send troops."

As soon as he took the position, Li Yunze was busy fighting, and he had exactly the same personality as Zhu Di.

Fan Zhongxin, who saluted, said, 'I will follow you when you send troops, what do you mean by telling me?' ’

"But there are many things inside and outside the DPRK, and I can't go there in person for the time being. But this matter is uneven, and it is difficult for me to calm down! ”

Now Fan Zhong understood, he was overjoyed and saluted again: "I am willing to share your Majesty's worries!" ”

"Okay."

Li Yunze, who raised his hand and slapped it on the imperial case, raised his head and shouted, "Please Fan Qing's family, it is difficult to calm down for me!" ”

Seeing that the battle exploits were in front of him beckoning to him, Fan Zhong trembled a little when he spoke, "Dare to ask Your Majesty, where do you want to be peaceful?" ”

"Nu'er Gandusi." Li Yunze sneered and said, "You lead the elite soldiers and horses over, plough the court and sweep the caves, and completely wipe out the Tartar Jurchens there!" ”

Although he didn't understand why Li Yunze hated the Tatar Jurchen so much, there was no need for Fan Zhong to understand it.

He kowtowed vigorously, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the ministers will plow the court and sweep the holes, and clean them up thoroughly!" ”

Li Yunze, who had arranged many affairs in a row, could finally rest for a while.

After all, this era is not as urgent as the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty is at the peak of national strength, as long as you want to do it, there is basically nothing that cannot be done.

Whether it was the Tatar Warat, or the Tatar Jurchens who had not yet become a climate at this time.

Or the Tessie countries, none of which pose any threat.

Unless he is possessed by the god of war.

Thinking of this, Li Yunze, who was about to enter the palace of Sun Guifei, subconsciously paused.

I reached out and touched the rubber-textured medical supplies, and then I was relieved to enter.
