Chapter 994: Eating Mushrooms
The sixth really didn't mix private goods into it, and secretly mapped out the territory. Yunnan Province of the Yuan Dynasty was so big.
Even if the part of the original Burma Central Province is removed, the 55th Road directly under the jurisdiction of Yunnan Province includes the later parts of Burma, Thailand, and Laos.
For example, Yunyuan Road, which is governed in Mengyang, Kachin State, Myanmar; Meng Ai Road, which is governed in Meng Kai, northeast of King Dong, Shan State, Myanmar; Mong Jie Road, located in the northeast of Chiang Mai, Thailand; Mu'an Road, located in the north of Nanfu, Thailand; Meng Juan Road, south of Chiang Mai, Thailand; Mong Khnh Road, located in the north of Chiang Rai Province, Thailand......
Roughly speaking, Yunnan Province plus northern Myanmar, plus northern Chiang Mai, Thailand, plus western Laos.
And, in fact, the Ming Dynasty had no intention of abandoning Burma. In the years that followed, Boss Zhu's father and son successively set up three Xuan and six comforts in Myanmar, which were under the jurisdiction of Yunnan, so Myanmar was the undisputed territory of the Ming Dynasty. It was not until one hundred and fifty years later, when the power of the Ming Dynasty declined, that these places gradually broke away from the rule of the Ming Dynasty.
But you can't deny that Burma, northern Thailand, and Laos were once the territory of the Ming Dynasty because of the predicament of one or two hundred years later.
His Royal Highness the King of Chu is just a political envoy of the real Yunnan in history, and it is just presented as it is.

Seeing that Mei Sizu and Pan Yuanming had nothing to say at this time, they were still worried.
"Your Highness, let's not talk about the Burmese part, just talk about the fifty-five prefectures directly under the jurisdiction of Yunnan, how many Han people can there be?" Pan Yuanming asked Lao Liudao.
"Less than one out of ten." Zhu Zhen smiled bitterly and said: "And they are all concentrated in big cities like Kunming and Dali, and many states and counties do not even have Han people. ”
"That's the problem." Pan Yuanming sighed and said: "If there are no Han people, they are all aliens, how can the decree be issued?" Do the barbarians listen to the toast, or are they from the government? That's all a problem. ”
"Indeed, the people only know that there are chieftains, but they don't know that there are officials, so they can't do anything." Mei Sizu frowned, and only then did he know what kind of big trouble he had received.
"You can't keep the army on them, can you?"
"You really have to use the army to hold them down." Zhu Zhen said in a deep voice: "The Tusi have been spoiled by the Yuan Dynasty, especially the King of Liang has been in power for more than ten years, and they are used to lawlessness. It is necessary to establish rules, reformulate the charter, and strictly control in order to truly return Yunnan to the king. ”
"But this will cause a big mess ......" Pan Yuanming sighed: "The emperor taught the three generals earnestly, and the lessons of the imperial courts of all dynasties and dynasties to conquer Yunnan, didn't they let them be cautious, and let those Tusi surrender and rebel?" ”
"So what to do? The father has made it very clear - for today's plan, it is not only to prevent him from rebelling, but to make it not rebellious. The King of Chu said in a deep voice:
"Not only to prevent them from rebelling, but more importantly, to make them incapable of rebelling."
"It's hard, it's hard." Pan Yuanming said with a sad face: "It's okay to say when the army is there, but the army can't be in Yunnan all the time." Once the army is divided, with the people of Yunnan, isn't it easy for those Tusi to rebel? How can they not have this ability. ”
"Then let the army stay in Yunnan forever!" Zhu Zhen waved his hand, and Shi Potian was shocked.
"Huh? How can this be, hundreds of thousands of soldiers eat horses and chew, and Yunnan can't afford to raise them. Pan Yuanming said more and more sadly.
"Besides, it's not a matter for the soldiers to stay in the guest country for a long time, and excessive homesickness will produce a large number of deserters." Mei Sizu also continued.
"Then bring their families to Yunnan and let them be in Yunnan Juntun!" Zhu Zhen said loudly: "Their family is definitely unwilling, but they can't help it." It's a big deal, let's make the conditions more generous! ”
"Unmarried soldiers are not allowed to marry Han Chinese, they are all looking for wives in the local area, and they can find a few, and the guard can give him a dowry." Zhu Zhen obviously didn't just talk, and said at length:
"Anyway, Yunnan is vast and sparsely populated, so how about finding a wife to give him 50 acres of land? His family can't farm, so let all his father-in-law's family come to farm for him. In this way, if you ask for a Yi girl, you can pull the Yi family to the side of the Han people. How many people are there in Yunnan, and as long as hundreds of thousands of troops are looking for more wives, they are still worried that the number of Han people is too small? ”
"......" Mei Sizu and the two glanced at each other, and said in their hearts that he really deserved to be the emperor's son, which was exactly the same as the method his father used to reduce the Mongolian Semu people.
"Your Highness's method is good, but in this way, it will inevitably arouse the disgust of the toasts, and it may be self-defeating." Pan Yuanming said cautiously.
"They want to rebel, sooner or later, they will rebel, it is not a good thing to puncture the pus as soon as possible, scrape the bones to cure the poison, this is a problem!" Zhu Zhen said more and more:
"There is no need to hide it, the top priority in Yunnan now is to use all means to increase the number of Han Chinese. When the number of Han people reached 30%, the barbarians did not dare to make trouble easily; When the number of Han people exceeds half, the barbarians become obedient people; When the number of Han people exceeds seventy percent, where are there any barbarians, all of them are in China! ”
"......" Mei Sizu and both of them were suppressed by the sixth child. They are such old fritters, how can they not understand the meaning of His Highness?
Of course, this can only be understood, not spoken.
Zhu Zhen saw the worried looks of the two, and knew that they didn't fully listen to their words. Even if you listen to it, you don't dare to go out and do it.
After all, not everyone is willing to bear the infamy of the ages for the sake of their own nation.
But this is not up to them at all. He estimated that it would not be long before the two of them would understand what it meant to have an unshirkable historical responsibility.
So he brought tea and sent the guests off: "Okay, I wish you all the best in Yunnan." In case of...... I mean, in case you encounter any problems, just ask people to come to me, and this king will definitely help if he can. ”
"Your Highness really cares about the Ming Dynasty and is selfless!" Pan Yuanming and the others hurriedly got up and flattered.
"Daming is from my family, and it's not a duke." Zhu Zhen waved his hand and ended the conversation.
~~
Zhu Yuanzhang asked Lao Liu to return to Beijing to offer prisoners, and he offered 318 people to the family of the late Yuan Weishun King's son Uncle and Liang Wang's Zaravarmi. and 1,200 people from the Duan clan in Dali.
Since there was a decree, there was no delay, so he ordered Hu Xian to detain and summon the prisoners according to the list and transfer them to the barracks.
He didn't know if he didn't count it, but when he counted it, he realized that his uncle and nephew were actually hospitalized together......
"What's the situation?" When Zhu Zhen heard the news, he asked dishappily: "How can two people be hospitalized together?" ”
"Last night, the two of them drank mushroom soup together, and then in the middle of the night, they vomited, vomited blood, had a fever, and were sent to the emergency clinic for treatment, and later sent to the field hospital, and Zhou Wangye personally took action to help them hang their lives...... Hu Xian said helplessly.
"How can they eat mushrooms casually, this is Yunnan!" Zhu Zhen's nose was about to be crooked.
