Chapter 707: The Great Ming Hundred States

Saibei region.

Although it was already May, the weather was still a little cold, and there were no people in the endless wilderness, only the sound of the wind, and the lonely nature was very harsh.

"Huh."

The thick felt bag is round, and the net wall is mostly made of willow strips, which is brought by merchants from Beiping, and the top is umbrella-shaped, which is easy to disassemble and assemble.

The man put on a thick leather coat, put on a felt hat, lifted the curtain and left, and went to the fence not far away, where there were many cattle and sheep, and the hounds saw that their master was coming, and gathered around them to meet them.

In the felt bag, a young woman with half of her shoulders bare was combing her hair in front of the mirror, and the woman's face was flushed in the mirror, and she hummed softly with pleasure to show that the hostess was very happy.

In the middle is a large cylinder supporting the felt bag, then there is a chimney sticking out of the top of the felt bag, and the coal stove burning coal makes the temperature in the felt bag relatively warm, although there is no snow water, but there is a small river nearby.

The woman put on her clothes, opened the curtains one by one, and soon brightened up, and the air was much clearer, and after thinking about it, she sat back down and took out the pen and ink from the box.

She had to tell her parents that her husband had promised to build a house, and that they would not live in a felt bag in the future.

In addition to the carpenters and bricklayer masters, the rest of the labor only needs the husband's brothers and brothers, plus the mother's family is enough, the thought of living in a spacious and comfortable house next year, the woman who has just been married for more than a year is very happy.

Times have changed.

From Senan to Saibei, each household has been divided into very large pastoral areas, and the upper limit of the number of breeding has been stipulated, and there is an obligation to protect the ecology of pastureland, and behind this change is the change of the entire local society.

I don't know when it began, but the people of Senan Province gradually lived in brick houses, and slowly the northern part of the province also changed.

With a strict land policy, each pasture was settled by a single family, and there were no more slaves, everyone was their own master.

"Huh."

Hearing the sound of the curtain being lifted, the woman thought that her husband was back, and turned her head with a happy smile, her smile gradually stiffened, revealing an unknown person in her eyes.

The man was dressed in filthy clothes, with a bloody knife in his hand, and his eyes glowed with vigilance at first, and when he found only a white woman in the tent, like a hungry wolf seeing a sheep.

He ran two steps out and beckoned several of his accomplices in the distance.

The fence was covered with blood, the ranch owner was lying in a pool of blood, and several horse bandits heard the greetings of their companions and hurried over.

In the North Sea region, later known as Lake Baikal, the largest freshwater lake in Eurasia and the deepest lake in the world, a tragic accident occurred.

The horse bandits brutally murdered the young couple and robbed them of their ranch property.

After hearing the news, a reporter from Beiping personally went to the Saibei area, collected the complete information, and published it in the Beiping newspaper, clearly telling the people how the rioters did evil.

There are dead people every year in the Ming Dynasty, and many murders have not been solved.

However, with the development of materials and the continuous improvement of the overall morality of society, I suddenly heard such a miserable deed, and even the story of a young couple falling in love, which caused a shock in Beiping for a while.

The news that could trigger the earthquake in Beiping was quickly reprinted by other newspapers, and soon alarmed the mainland, and more and more people paid attention to it, thinking that it was too cruel.

The cabinet was busy with the end of the Wa Kingdom and the return of His Majesty the Emperor to Beijing, and suddenly, the matter was in an uproar, and even the Wenhua Hall was alarmed.

"It's big or small."

Yang Shiqi said meaningfully.

The atmosphere is very important, although the current cabinet also has small contradictions, it has generally maintained harmony, as the so-called political harmony, Xie Jin nodded, understanding what Yang Shiqi meant.

"It's hard."

"Where there is a simple thing."

The two elders sighed.

From the day of the division of land between Senan and Saibei, just as there were pros and cons to everything, the good thing was that everyone had their own pasture, and because of the close trade with the hinterland, the standard of living changed dramatically.

On the bad side.

Atomized societies in the interior are also taking place in pastoral areas.

Different from the mainland, the geographical environment of Saibei and Senan is very different, unlike the inland cities are relatively closed, mainly because there are too many uninhabited areas, so the requirements for public security are too high.

Especially in the Ming Dynasty, when the face of the people is changed, there will naturally be many resistance forces, which undoubtedly increases the difficulty.

In addition to maintaining the army's combat effectiveness, another major reason for the annual large-scale training of the whole army in Senan and Saibei is to eradicate bandits and protect the lives and property safety of herdsmen.

"If we want to solve the problem in a day, all we can do is to continue to be vigilant and completely eliminate the soil where bandits were born."

Really.

When the two saw His Royal Highness the Prince, Zhu Gaochi asked about it, Yang Shiqi stepped forward to answer, and after listening, Zhu Gaochi didn't say much.

"According to the discussions with the ministries, the layout of the Wa Kingdom, the Dog Slave Country, and the Shikoku Island is as follows, first of all, Shikoku Island, renamed Nimeishu, and set up a three-division system, and the same is true for the Tsukushi Metropolitan Division, which is planned to be restructured in three years."

"Then there are the Toei Division, the Division, the Chubu Division, the Kanto Division, the Tohoku Division, and the Hokkaido Sekishi Division."

After listening to Yang Shiqi's introduction, Zhu Gaochi knew that the Dongying region was the Chinese region of the original Japan, that is, the territory of the Dog Slave Country, and the performance of the Dog Slave Country in the two wars was too poor.

Most of the elite army of the Ouchi clan was wiped out by the shogunate in the first war, and it couldn't hold up the wall in the second war, so since it was so useless, and the Wa Shogunate was completely defeated, then it didn't necessarily exist.

If it was an ordinary force, it would be impossible for Daming to say that it could be canceled, but it was precisely because it was too useless, and it was originally supported by Daming, although there was opposition, Zhu Di personally suppressed it.

"The Ezo people are willing to return to Hokkaido?"

Zhu Gaochi asked curiously.

Before the Ming Dynasty appeared, the Ezo people had already declined, although the turtle retreated in Hokkaido, in fact, it was not safe, and now it is said that the Hokkaido Propaganda Division was established, but the Ezo people counterattacked on the main island of the Japanese country, how to be willing to retreat easily.

"According to the consultation of the ministers, part of the original forces of the Dog Slave Kingdom were relocated to the Northeast Metropolitan Division."

Yang Shiqi only said the beginning, Zhu Gaochi understood their next strategy, the tricks in the world are those, there is nothing new, it is nothing more than letting them eat dogs, and Daming is in the middle to adjust and reap profits.

However, Zhu Gaochi still listened patiently to Yang Shiqi and what they said.

In his previous life, he had a kind of superior, who had risen from the bottom, and he could be described as experienced, but he was in the prime of life, but no one wanted to do things under him, and it was not good to lead the team.

It's because they are impatient and feel that they know exactly what their subordinates are thinking and what they are going to do, so they are unwilling to give their subordinates more time.

It's like when children watch TV, if they watch TV they have watched, they will dance proudly and proudly tell their friends that they have watched this TV, and always take the initiative to explain the plot of TV, regardless of the disgust of others.

Both are low-level performances.

After Yang Shiqi and others finished explaining in detail, Zhu Gaochi gave his approval, and then said: "It is easy to fight the country, but it is difficult to govern the country, after all, the Japanese kingdom is a kingdom with history and the formation of its own culture, and it is different from other regions, if you want to digest it thoroughly, you still need to make a lot of effort." ”

"Just because the army has won a war does not mean that it is the end, on the contrary, for me, the army has won the battle and the beginning is the beginning." Zhu Gaochi continued to say to everyone, "So my father wants to leave the second brother in the central capital, and I approve it, which will do more good than harm to the future of the Ming Dynasty." ”

Yang Shiqi and Xie Jin showed a look of embarrassment.

The emperor wanted to change the title of King Goyang to the king of Dongying, and to take the central capital of Toyama Castle into a domain, so as to hold the Tohoku capital and Hokkaido Xuanwei Division hostage, wouldn't this be tantamount to turning back?

For many years, the court tacitly agreed to ban the real feudal king, but the second generation of the emperor wanted to change his sons to real feudal ones, so what he did before became a joke.

It turned out that it wasn't that he didn't support the actual feudal king, but it was just because he wasn't born by himself.

Zhu Gaochi did not think about sealing his second brother overseas, not to say that he was reluctant to land, but to understand that how many people are willing to leave the city of Shanghai to live in the countryside of Cambodia?

The poor may be willing, because the poor have low demands, but the rich are definitely unwilling.

But with the letter from his father and the consent of his second brother, Zhu Gaochi had an idea, and if he could seal his second brother overseas, it would undoubtedly be a good start, and it would have a crucial effect on local stability.

It's just that it's difficult for the imperial court to accept, so Zhu Gaochi tried his best to explain, hoping that the imperial court would agree.

Even if the cabinet can't figure it out, Zhu Gaochi believes that with the prestige of his father or his own strong demand, the cabinet can only pass it in the end, but this is not what Zhu Gaochi wants, what Zhu Gaochi wants is an agreement reached after consultation and mutual compromise, not a coercion on the one hand.

After listening to His Royal Highness the Prince's thoughts, Yang Shiqi and Xie Jin did not insist.

At the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the north and the south were reunified, and the situation of integration was very fast, and later generations seemed to think that it was justified, and the people of the Hongwu Dynasty did use all their tricks.

The vassal kings brought not only officials, but also soldiers and households.

Now facing overseas, and unlike many kingdoms in the South Seas, the culture and history of the Wa Kingdom are more mature and advanced, in short, not so easy to integrate.

No matter what policy is adopted, it will take a long time, and the distance between the imperial court and the Wa kingdom is too far, and there needs to be a local person who can call the shots, so the vassal king becomes a good candidate, which is different from the vassal king in the mainland.

After the initial exchanges between Zhu Gaochi and the cabinet, the news about King Gaoyang's change of title to King Dongying became more and more widespread.

The capital is the political center of the world, and people care about politics.

Meantime.

There was a big controversy in the capital Guozijian, which also alarmed the Ministry of Rites.

"The ancients spoke in the vernacular, but wrote in classical Chinese, because of the communication and dialogue in daily life, the language of the vernacular is relatively simple and easy to understand, easy to express and communicate, and due to the limitations of writing tools and materials, the ancestors in order to save time and space for writing, and to make the literature more standardized and solemn, they adopted a processed and refined form of written expression, this form of written language expression is classical Chinese."

"However, when the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, and some people just like to show off, that is, they like to appear different, do unusual things, and distinguish themselves from ordinary people."

"You can see this kind of person in the history of the use and development of classical Chinese, which is full of stench."

A gentleman in a Chinese uniform deliberately fanned his nose, and without waiting for the other side to refute, he continued: "In the same way, our country is a place for teaching and educating people, and the teaching materials are easy to understand, but there are some people, for fear that ordinary people will not be able to understand the difference, and they have to write textbooks that ordinary people can't understand, so they think they are profound." ”

"Those who don't understand look at it, and they don't understand it for a long time, so they can only say: Mr. is talented. Actually, it's not bullshit. ”

"Guozijian's textbooks, don't say anything about knowledge and science, if ordinary people can't understand them, it means that the talent of the people who write them is insufficient, and there are no textbooks that ordinary people can't understand."

"The role of textbooks is to let ordinary people understand at a glance, instead of reading and not reading, but also guessing and understanding by themselves."

Guozijian had his own newspaper, and this unknown debate circulated in a small area, and finally flowed to the Wenhua Hall and to Zhu Gaochi's hands.

After reading that gentleman's remarks, Zhu Gaochi was very appropriatory.

What is backwardness?

Is backwardness just an economy? Or military?

Excellent textbooks are based on allowing learners to use their brains for self-study, historical development, generalization of phenomena, solutions, origin of formula definitions, and references. Let's talk about it.

It is very much in line with the way of thinking of human beings to understand phenomena, generalize laws, summarize formulas, and transform the world.

The backward textbooks are not understood by the teachers themselves, and many of the textbooks themselves are indiscriminate, and then the unworthy mediocre people have also figured out the trick: paste the formula definition throughout, let you memorize the exam on weekdays, and finally focus on meeting the score assessment standards.

Fortunately, with the comprehensive revival of later generations, there are also many outstanding talents in the compilation of textbooks, such as the compilation of Mr. Wang Shuang, the calculus series of Mr. Qi Minyou, and the probability theory series of Mr. Chen Xiru are all well written.

I have the impression that Mr. Wang Shuang talked about his views on how to impart knowledge at the beginning, and in the knowledge introduction stage, this book is not inferior to excellent foreign textbooks.

The excellent textbook is freshly made ramen, a large bowl that can be eaten directly, and you will be full after eating.

The backward textbook is dried noodles, which can only be eaten after boiling in water, and how to cook depends on the level of the chef, it is the luck of students to meet a good teacher, but a good teacher is unattainable, and it is impossible to popularize the standard.

Therefore, Zhu Gaochi supports the thoughts of the gentleman in Beiping Guozijian, even if it is the teaching material of Guozijian, it should be in this direction.

Twenty years of Yongle.

Delegations from several kingdoms on the north coast of the Western Ocean arrived in Daming, met with His Majesty the Crown Prince of Daming, and sang the praises of the great Daming.

They were shocked.

It's a magical country.

Not only the development of materials, but also many things they could not understand, such as everyone being protected by the law, from the emperor and nobles to the dawn people, the killing of an ordinary family in a far, far away area would lead to the dispatch of 120,000 troops.

When these envoys of the Kingdom Mission on the North Shore of the Western Ocean heard the news about the military strengthening of the northern part of the Western Ocean, their faces showed incomprehensible expressions.

The people here are very polite.

He is polite in everything he does, and he is very kind.

Everybody is so rich.

There was gold flowing from the ground.

The water they drank was made of gold, and the pipes could flow into their homes.

Heaven on earth.

Ideal country.

Countless miraculous rumors spread around the world through the mouths and words of these people. (End of chapter)
