For an empire, it is important for diplomacy. This is a problem that can never be avoided.

Especially like today's Ming Dynasty, the territory is vast and the population is large.

The huge empire brings with it a long border line, and foreign negotiations also determine the security of the border to a certain extent.

And the envoy of a country, no matter what kind of status the other party is in when he is in the country, once he represents a country stepping out of its borders, then it represents the dignity of the country.

However, now, the envoys sent by Zhu Yuanzhang to a small overseas country were beheaded by others in a foreign land.

This matter undoubtedly came Zhu Yuanzhang's face.

This incident in itself was enough to make Zhu Yuanzhang angry.

However, now, when he was annoyed, Chu Ze was still talking nonsense in front of him.

"Let's tell you beforehand, you'd better have something."

During this time, Zhu Yuanzhang himself was relatively hot, and he was busy with things all day long.

Although he tried to throw all the power to Zhu Biao.

But there are some things that he should be busy with or have to be busy.

It's just to transfer the decision-making power to Zhu Biao as much as possible.

"Your Majesty, as you just said, the Ming Dynasty sent envoys to the Wa Kingdom, originally to establish a friendly state between the two countries, but the other party did not give face. Kill the envoys of the Ming Dynasty. This move is undoubtedly a provocation to the Ming Dynasty. ”

"It's a reason and a good excuse. Provoking Tianwei should be punished for its crimes, so we can take advantage of this opportunity to directly send troops to fight. ”

"We originally had the purpose of friendship and wanted to promote friendly exchanges between the two countries, but the other party did not talk about martial arts and killed our envoys.

"What? Would you love to go to war? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang originally thought that Chu Ze was going to say something profound, but after a long time, this guy analyzed this for him?

Can he Zhu Yuanzhang not be clear about these things?

Indeed, the killing of the envoy at this time was the best reason and opportunity for the Ming Dynasty to start a war with the other party.

But don't forget, it was a naval battle.

And a small country with a sea in between.

Even if it is defeated, for the Ming Dynasty, which is not good at naval warfare now, the price will not be easy.

The point is, where the bird doesn't poop, it's not easy to manage even if it hits.

If the two were connected by land, Zhu Yuanzhang wouldn't even think about it, and it would be a big soldier pressing the border.

When the two countries go to war, it's not like two people fighting each other.

As the emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang is more about thinking about gains and losses.

In every battle, it is the national strength that is fought!

So Zhu Yuanzhang, who was still angry, calmed down instantly after seeing Chu Ze, who was a little eager to try.

This guy is a little out of tune on weekdays.

But today, when he mentioned the matter of the Japanese Kingdom, he seemed to be particularly excited.

Such an abnormal Chu Ze somewhat made Zhu Yuanzhang feel that something was not right.

"Haha. Your Majesty looked at what he said, how could I possibly want to go to war, I didn't think about it, the other party provoked first, and we have every reason not to. ”

"Anyway, the border neighbors, aren't they just used to fight?"

Reacting, Chu Ze, who seemed to be a little too positive, rubbed the tip of his nose slightly embarrassed in the face of Zhu Yuanzhang's gaze.

And Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Chu Ze, who was completely like child's play, and a cold snort sounded from his nasal cavity.

"You're talking lightly, the war is together, do you know how many soldiers will die on the battlefield? Beat.. Let's say a word, you can fight with a wave of your big hand, but after the fight? ”

"In a small place like the Wa Kingdom, surrounded by the sea on all sides, and far away from the Ming Dynasty, fighting across the sea, my Ming sailors are extremely not good at this kind of warfare. In case of an accident, the boat capsized in the gutter. Where does the face of Daming exist? ”

"Now that the envoy has been beheaded, it is mostly a loss of face, but at least the other party does not dare to act rashly. If the war is lost at that time, the villain will inevitably succeed, and the coastal areas will be more vulnerable to its invasion in the future. ”

"You are also from the next generation, and you look at the war so superficially!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was somewhat disappointed with Chu Ze's performance this time.

Originally, he thought that Chu Ze, a person from later generations, should be very strong in the overall situation, after all, the other party is from later generations, and many things should be learned from history.

But what he didn't expect was that Chu Ze would be such a child's play.

If you are provoked a little, you can't hold back and want to go to war.

This, in Zhu Yuanzhang's view, is definitely a taboo!

Fighting recklessly is by no means the thinking that a superior should have, let alone the performance that a strategist on the side of a superior should have.

"What Your Majesty said is that there will be basically no war in the future generations, and I don't know much about these things."

"What I mainly think about is that this opportunity is rare, we are justified, and there is a reason to go to war, this is not the problem of treasure money in the house now. Recently, I saw that the prince has been busy with this matter, so I also thought that after the defeat of the Wa Kingdom, I would dig up all the silver mines that were everywhere over their side, and fill the treasury when the time came, and this problem would basically be solved."

"I didn't expect that I was superficial, it turned out that there are so many things to think about when starting a war... I thought ...

"Wait a minute, what did you just say?"

originally thought that he would take this opportunity to teach Chu Ze and Zhu Yuanzhang, who was by no means a child's play about the war between the two countries, after hearing Chu Ze's muttering.

Suddenly, he heard something terrible.

Silver?

It's all over the place!

Somewhat doubting whether he had heard it wrong, he quickly interrupted Chu Ze's words.

Then, he asked again in disbelief.

"Huh? I just said that the war is still going to war."

"It's not this sentence, did you just say that the place in the Wa Kingdom is full of silver mines? Have you ever said that? ”

"Oh! Your Majesty said that's what you said! I just said that. Silver is also an important mineral resource in later generations, in addition to silver, there are gold, coal, oil and the like, the distribution of these important resources is also one of the important knowledge we need to learn. ”

"We don't want to hear what you have to say now, we just want to know, is what you just said true? Are you sure that there is silver everywhere in the territory of the Japanese Kingdom? ”

"Well, of course I'm sure! I just heard you say that after the Wa Kingdom beheaded the envoys of the Ming Dynasty, didn't I just say it! The other party is here to send us money. Your Majesty, you shouldn't be angry. ”

"But Your Majesty didn't say you didn't want to go to war?"

"Fart! Did we say we didn't want to go to war? We're talking about being cautious. Someone! Go and call us the prince, and immediately call us Xu Da and Lan Yu, we have something important to discuss! ”

There are silver mines everywhere in a country!

If this incident is true, then the country of Wa is not a place where birds don't in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes.

That's a mountain of gold, an inexhaustible mountain of gold!

When the two countries go to war, they really have to consider the gains and losses.

But if there is a mountain of gold on the opposite side, then what else to consider?

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang gave the order, the palace guards and the eunuchs were all lively.

Zhu Biao, who was in the East Palace, heard the news as soon as possible.

After learning that Chu Ze went to see his father, the entire palace was in trouble soon after.

He didn't care about any more government affairs.

He got up and rushed to the imperial study.

Although he didn't know what was going on, as long as he heard about Chu Ze, Zhu Biao would know... I guess it's not a good thing again.

Even on the way to the imperial study, Zhu Biao had already figured out how to intercede for Chu Ze.

However, when he really trotted all the way to the imperial study, as soon as he entered the door, he saw a scene that shocked Zhu Biao.

The scene he imagined of his father with a black face, and then Chu Ze being beaten and bruised all over his body did not appear.

At this time, Chu Ze actually stood directly in front of his father's imperial study case.

In his hand was his father's imperial pen.

The two tigers on the side personally grinded ink for Chu Ze.

Chu Ze was writing and painting something while explaining.

And his father, the emperor, was actually like a student at this time, nodding from time to time, and then frowning or something.

"Fourth, what's going on?"

Seeing this scene in front of him, Zhu Biao's whole person was directly numb.

Isn't the relationship between Chu Ze and his father not very good?

Why did you see the two of them getting along so well today?

And Zhu Biao also noticed Zhu Di standing in the imperial study at this time, with a depressed face.

Only then did he hurriedly ask Zhu Di.

"Big brother.. You've come just in time. Well, it's complicated, so you'd better go over and see for yourself. ”

After Zhu Di saw Zhu Biao coming, he wanted to say hello with a smile.

But he really couldn't laugh at this point.

A good place full of silver, how nice it would be if it were your own fiefdom!

He's actually quite interested in naval warfare, and he can learn it now

"You.."

Looking at Zhu Di with a bitter face, Zhu Biao's brows wrinkled slightly.

I simply didn't ask him.

stepped forward directly and saluted Zhu Yuanzhang above.

"Son, see."

"Biao'er, you're here just in time! Don't get involved, come up and show us. How to mine this silver mine properly! ”

After hearing Zhu Biao's voice, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't wait to interrupt Zhu Biao's greetings.

When has this been?

See what a ghost!

It's the right thing to do with the money in your pocket first.

"Silver mines? What kind of silver mine? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's words made Zhu Biao, who was halfway through the salute, directly stunned in place.

But then he quickly reacted.

After hesitating for a moment, he also walked directly to Chu Ze's side.

After looking down at what Chu Ze had drawn, Zhu Biao, who was already confused, twitched the corners of his mouth slightly.

"Chu Ze.. What are you doing with a worm on paper? ”

"Uh, Prince, can't you see that this is a simple topographic map?"

“.”
