Chapter 551: Zhu Di's Anger: This is the world of the Ming Dynasty
"Farming, don't be lazy, how much effort you use, the field will return you as much grain, and it will not let you take advantage of it, nor will it treat you badly."
An acre of land was opened in the palace.
Zhu Yuanzhang fell in love with farming, but in fact, he was not a good hand at farming.
As a child, he became an orphan, left the fields and became a homeless person, then mixed into the monastery to do odd jobs, only to start begging again within a few years, and finally joined the rebel army.
Even if he became an emperor and asked people to grow rice and vegetables in the palace, it was a subconscious idea, and he didn't care about it.
Old, idle, can't stay, he couldn't leave the palace for a while last year, and he gradually found something new to pass the time.
Zhu Di was outside to inspect the army, and Zhu Gaochi accompanied Zhu Yuanzhang to prepare the land.
Farming is hard, Zhu Gaochi doesn't think he can endure this hardship, but what he sees in front of him is just a small acre of land, which is more like a game.
"What Grandpa Huang said makes sense." Zhu Gaochi cooperated.
Zhu Gaochi has never done farm work, it's not that he hasn't seen farm work, and he found at a glance that Zhu Yuanzhang is a good guy in this regard, and he can't use it.
Hearing his grandson's tone, Zhu Yuanzhang's old face turned red, and he remembered that this grandson had been hanging outside the palace since he was a child.
So he stopped pretending, got up and asked.
"You've never been clinging to human life, and now it looks like you're going to order someone?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked curiously.
Yang Bo's matter is not big in his eyes, and he doesn't see anything worthy of his grandson's breaking the ring.
"Yang Bo's case can't be clarified for the time being, but when Annan recovers it, it will inevitably come to light, if this person really helps Annan deceive Daming, then I will not only kill him, but also order the investigation of all the harborers."
Zhu Gaochi nodded.
In the current era, women and children do not have a high right to independence, they are dependent on men, and it is men who really do things.
Therefore, in ancient times, the extermination was only for men.
As for the rest, they were implicated.
Today, it is an era that pays attention to clansmen and acquaintances, and the community of interests is not like the atomized individual in later generations.
Zhu Gaochi knew that there must be a large number of people behind Yang Bo who were taking care of him, and he would not let go of these people who cared for him.
Zhu Yuanzhang became more and more curious.
If this is implicated, it is not one or two families.
Zhu Gaochi did not hide it, and explained the internal and external contradictions, Zhu Yuanzhang was impressed after hearing it, "It is somewhat similar to the ancestors' family and country, it seems that you have also read books." ”
Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's joke, Zhu Gaochi was speechless.
I have never underestimated the books of the ancients, such as "Sending Dongyang Horses to Life" written by Song Lian.
If you really read this article, then life will definitely be much smoother, and you will know how to gain a foothold in society.
Zhu Yuanzhang did not continue to make fun of his grandson, and taught seriously.
"We like to be reasonable, and after a lifetime of reasoning, we finally discovered a fact, that is, sometimes the truth doesn't make sense."
Zhu Gaochi nodded.
There is only one position that can be reasonable.
"Sun Er believes that most of the people in the world still hope that the Ming Dynasty will be prosperous and strong, and on this basis, the law of benevolence and virtue is the most important."
"But Sun Er also knows that there are a very small number of people who will not accept the loss of their own interests, even if this part of the interests is based on the oppression of others."
"In the same way, as long as he does not do anything that endangers the Ming Dynasty and harms the interests of the nation, he will still deal with it as appropriate."
"On the contrary."
Zhu Gaochi smiled, "There are many people who praise their grandchildren and say that their grandchildren are like ancestors. ”
"Hahaha."
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help laughing.
What his grandson said today made him very happy.
Since the imperial grandson was in charge of the country, the first major case involving him was quietly launched because of the Annan matter.
……
Zhu Di returned from touring the Beijing camp.
Wuying Palace.
The Cabinet, the Governor's Office of the Five Armed Forces, and the Ministry of War deliberated on the matter of recovering Annam.
Zhu Gaochi sent the following report to the ministers he had recently received.
"The foundation of the new army comes from the Beiping Guard, and the Beiping Guard has been fighting a war for more than ten years."
From the time of King Yan, and even after the twenty-sixth year of Hongwu in history, the guard office in Beiping began to rest.
It was not until the Jingjing period that the soldiers returned to the battlefield.
But history has changed.
Twenty-six years after Hongwu, the war in Beiping still did not stop, not to mention the domestic Sennan, Saibei, Yili Jiangli, Warat, and Eastern Chagatai Khanate.
Even an iron man gets tired.
"According to my plan, it was originally a three-year rest, and it took three years for the soldiers to fully recover."
"But the plan can't keep up with the changes, Annan's affairs have made the soldiers only rest for less than a year, I'm afraid that if it continues, many soldiers will have problems."
Zhu Gaochi said worriedly.
Chinese civilization is different.
For example, the Jin State slaughtered China, burned, killed and plundered, which was their driving force, directly indulging the wildness of the soldiers.
And Da Ming is different.
For example, Lan Yu is accused of insulting enemy women.
This is an impossible crime in other countries such as Jinguo, and doing such a thing is a hero in their eyes.
That's the difference between civilization and barbarism.
Civilized countries need soldiers to be people, not beasts, and those barbaric forces, they make soldiers into beasts.
The former restricts human nature, while the latter indulges human nature, leading to different phenomena.
"However, most of the army has been reformed, and the new army is the main force of the operation, so how can we ensure the victory of the war if we do not send the new army."
Jin Zhong, the secretary of the military department, asked worriedly.
He understood what His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun meant, but the current situation required the soldiers to work hard for a few more years to pay for the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Gaochi shook his head.
The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, they need to live in the civilized world and become the heroes of the world, rather than being excluded by the civilized world.
It's not fair to them.
War turns people into beasts, unable to adapt to the civilized world, or even survive in the civilized world.
"In the war of Annan, we should restrain the soldiers and not wantonly harm the Chinese people."
Zhu Gaochi asked everyone to send a notice.
"This is what I asked the Ministry of Rites to do, and the whole army must abide by it."
The crowd opened.
Zhu Di has already seen it, and he approves of it.
"The father and son of the thief will be unforgiving, and the coercion will be released."
"Don't raise chaos, don't play with cowards, don't destroy tombs, don't harm crops, don't take goods and wealth, don't plunder people's wives and daughters, don't kill and surrender, there is one here, although the merit is not worthy."
"Don't take risks, don't be greedy."
"Sinners have vested, that is, they choose the sages of the descendants of the Chen family to heal one side."
Zhu Gaochi strictly enforced military discipline and said earnestly: "When our army enters the realm of Annam, it is forbidden to destroy tombs and gardens, burn people's houses, kidnap people's wives and daughters, and harass local people. ”
"Treat the Chinese people in Annan, especially the elderly, and treat them with courtesy, so that people can be at ease, enjoy their lives, and belong to our China."
This is not Zhu Gaochi's intention.
But in history, the Ming Dynasty recovered Annam, and there was an explicit order.
At the beginning of the fifteenth century, such a civilized country was one of the few in the world when military discipline was so advocated, which shows the height of Chinese civilization and the special treatment given to Annam.
In matters of military discipline, the crowd did not object.
Zhu Di recognized it more in his heart.
Jin Zhong asked: "Isn't His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun going to recover Annam, why do you say that you want to choose the sages of the descendants of the Chen family to govern one side?" ”
"Although the royal family of Annam was wantonly slaughtered by the father and son of the Li thief, the Chen family has a vast power, and with this edict, you can maximize the support within Annam."
"And after all, Annan has been away from China for a long time, and tough changes will only cause more resistance."
Zhu Gaochi couldn't help but glance at Xie Jin as he spoke.
Xie Jin's talent and vision are indeed more than most people.
He saw the limited overall ability of Ming officials, and the danger that Zhu Di wanted to directly change the status quo in Annan.
When Zhu Di put forward the idea of directly setting up counties in Annan, he immediately objected, saying that it was necessary to treat Annan slowly, first maintain the two rules, win over the local people, and then the time for reform.
However, this strategy was rejected by Zhu Di, and he was disgusted with Xie Jin.
For Annan.
Zhu Gaochi planned to use ten years to completely regain the hearts of the local people before the system was reformed.
As for the real Li Chen.
Set up one or two, and the Ming garrison, control the inside and outside, can not set off the wind and waves, but attract firepower for the Ming Dynasty.
It is foreseeable that the elite class in Annam will inevitably contradict the elite class in the Ming Dynasty.
Historically, this contradiction was directly confronted by the elite of Annam, and there was a continuous guerrilla war, which finally made the Ming exhausted, unable to continue to support, and gave up the garrison.
Instead, the Chen family was established, and the contradiction was aimed at the Chen family in the future, and the Ming Dynasty only needed to deal with it in the middle, and then improve the economic level and living conditions of the people by governing the people, then everything would naturally come naturally.
And using the tran clan Annam to annex the city, not only expanded the land and strengthened the control of Southeast Asia, but also diverted the attention and experience of the local elite.
It took ten years to let Annan completely return to the embrace of the Ming motherland.
The rest of the people have already understood the plan that Zhu Gaochi discussed with the cabinet, and the questions they asked have also been answered.
The crowd was unanimous.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Zhu Di personally marched and sat in the rear, Zhu Neng was the chief military officer, Mu Sheng, Marquis of Xiping, Yunnan, was the left deputy general, and Zhang Fu was the right deputy general.
The army approached from Yunnan and Guangxi respectively, and sent sailors to attack the capital of Annam through Qiongzhou Island.
Jin Zhong, the military counselor of the Ministry of War, Zheng Ci and Huang Fu, Dali Siqing, Chen Qia, etc., were responsible for transporting food and wages.
Pei Boqi, who was attached to Annan, was also given a crown and belt to accompany the army to the south.
The total number of officers and troops requisitioned from Yunnan, Sichuan, Guizhou, Guangxi, Guangdong, Huguang, Fujian, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Jiangsu, Anhui, and Shandong was 215,000, claimed to be 800,000.
Among them, Yunnan Road, the local Tusi sent 60,000 troops, and the Guangxi Tusi sent 30,000 troops, a total of nearly 100,000, bringing their own dry food.
More than 110,000 troops were actually sent to the interior of the Ming Dynasty, of which more than 70,000 were traditional guards in the south who had completed the reform.
There were only 40,000 new troops in the whole army, and none of the old troops in Beiping were dispatched, which caused dissatisfaction among the generals of the Beiping system.
There are even more people who are red at Zhu Neng, and some people hate Zhang Fu.
Although Zhang Fu is the original Yanshan Sanwei, he does not belong to the Beiping lineage, and his heels were sent by the former prince's line to deal with the original Yan King.
has not experienced the fusion of the Battle of Jingjing, and there is no label of the Beiping system on his body.
The generals of the Beiping department did not get credit this time, and everyone knew that it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who was cultivating him, plus Zhang Fu, one person from within and outside the department.
Many people have a sense of crisis and feel that their interests have been compromised.
Before the war began, there was already a lot of uproar, and the angry Zhu Di was furious.
"This is the world of the Ming Dynasty, not the world of the mountains of the Beiping system!"
One word.
makes people dare not speak out against it, at least not on the surface.
