Chapter 477: Zhu Zhang's Request
When Lin Che walked past Zhu Yuanzhang's side, he said softly: "Science is something that you can't understand, and it can't be defined in words, so I can't explain it to you." ”
"But, what I can assure you is that there is no harm in it, and even what I just said is only a small fraction."
"It depends on whether Your Majesty dares to bet with me, you are crazy!"
"I don't need too much support, just slaughter Yan Shenggong Kong Xian for us, just that former dynasty was a dog's leg, and he is still ambiguous with his dream, the fifty-sixth grandson of Confucius, just kill him!"
"After that, I'll teach it myself, science."
"As for other things, I don't dare to bother Your Majesty."
Say it in one breath.
Lin Che didn't wait for Zhu Yuanzhang's answer, and strode out of the room.
"Guy... Alas! ”
Looking at Lin Che's dashing back leaving, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed helplessly, and said in his heart, what is this called?
Kong Xian really deserves to be killed, and we already have the intention of killing him, but... Let's kill and kill, but we can be told who we want to kill, why is it so awkward?
Zhu Yuanzhang scolded in his mouth and left the back door depressed.
The father and son returned to the palace.
The hour was not early, so Zhu Biao said goodbye to his father and returned to the East Palace.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the hour and still came to the imperial study.
found that the second child, Zhu Zhang, was waiting in the study.
During this time, there have been a lot of things in the royal family, all of which are related to this Zhu Laoer.
However, after Zhu Yuanzhang sorted out this time, he finally washed away the grievances of the second child, thinking that he had a meritorious service in subduing the Tan people on the southeast coast alone, he still glared at him, and then asked:
"Second brother, on the southeast coast, how many Tan people have you subdued, and how many of them are willing to join the navy?"
In fact, the specific data has already been reported to him by secret agents.
But this is the first time Zhu Fan has done such a big errand alone.
The results also exceeded expectations.
"Back to my father, this trip has subdued more than 175,000 people, including more than 40,000 young and strong men, and 32,200 people are willing to join my Ming Navy."
Zhu Fan held his head high and reported the figures with a little pride, which was his biggest achievement on the coastal line.
The Tan people on the southeast coast, all of whom had made great efforts to not only create a new household registration, but also to pay taxes to the Ming Navy.
It can be said that he has become a Ming man in the true sense.
"Very good, with these sailors alone, it is possible to form a fleet."
Zhu Yuanzhang finally nodded with satisfaction and beckoned Zhu Fan to sit beside him.
He knew very well that the young men in Zhu Zhang's mouth were all young people of eighteen and twenty-eight years old.
If there is no accident, he can serve Daming for at least 20 years.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Fan and asked: "You did a good job of subduing the Tan people, the one in your family recently, you handled it very well with your father's heart, tell me what reward you want?" ”
Although there are still hundreds of thousands of Tan people, they do not yet know the new policy of the imperial court.
However, Zhu Fan's task ends here.
Anyway, he has summed up an effective recruitment routine.
The rest of the subjugation work will be carried out by the officials of the household department and the military department, drawing a scoop according to the gourd, and recruiting the Tan people in the southeast and other coastal areas in batches.
After all, as a prince, Zhu Fan could not let him take care of all this matter.
It's pretty good that Zhu Fan can make such a performance.
You must know that in order to prevent the household department and the military department from having too much influence among the Tan people, there were many officials who took over Zhu Fan's task, and almost all the officials of the two departments were arranged to take turns to participate in the subduing of the Tan people.
There will be no more situations where one person subdues the hearts of tens of thousands of people.
If there was no matter of his princess, Zhu Fan probably wouldn't have been aware of Zhu Yuanzhang's concerns, and maybe he would have been transferred back halfway because he had just opened up the situation among the people.
And it was awkward to have trouble with his father.
However, now Zhu Fan looks no different from the past on the surface, but he has grown a lot of eyes in private.
Knowing that in this case, it is best to ask your father for it.
So Zhu Fan directly reported his request.
"Father, didn't you promise your sons that when you go on an expedition to the Wa Kingdom in the future, you will equip your son's partial division with an expeditionary fleet?"
"I want to choose at least two thousand of the people to serve as sailors for the fleet."
"Moreover, the ships equipped with the fleet must be soft sailing ships with pointed bottoms created by Mr. Lin."
The conditions proposed by Zhu Fan are quite a bit of a lion's mouth.
Because according to what Lin Che said, the naval combat configuration given has always been equipped with a fleet of partial divisions, and the number of small ships that do not undertake the landing of transport troops and act as arson ships is about three to five large treasure ships.
Medium-sized warships were around fifteen.
Such a large fleet must also be composed of soft-bottomed soft sailing ships.
Even renovating an old ship costs a lot of money.
Fortunately, it won't be long before Tang He, who went to the South China Sea to carry out a mission, will come back, and there will be more than 100 more sea ships at that time.
In a short period of time, there was no shortage of treasure ships and warships in the Ming Dynasty.
As well as funds for the renovation of sea vessels.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded without hesitation and agreed: "Second brother, the number of warships in the fleet, we will equip you according to the highest specifications, but two thousand Tanmin sailors, is the number a little too much." ”
A treasure ship plus fifteen medium-sized warships would take almost four thousand sailors to play.
And Zhu Fan suddenly stuffed the fleet with 2,000 tankers, directly accounting for half of the number of sailors.
This ratio is really a bit high.
Zhu Yuanzhang is not afraid of the people making trouble.
Instead, he was worried that in the fleet led by Zhu Zhang, the proportion of Tan people would be too high, and the tail would not fall in the future.
Zhu Fan knew what Zhu Yuanzhang was worried about, but he didn't care and smiled: "Father, don't worry, the people are not so flowery now, as long as they ensure that their families can fill their stomachs in farming, and they will not be bullied." ”
"They are the most brave and fearless soldiers in the early days of the Ming Navy."
Today's Tan people are still relatively simple.
The imperial court raised their status and gave them a place to live on land.
They will die for the court, and they will not think about anything to fight for power and profit.
"Since you know it in your heart, then let's not say more."
"Let's meet your requirements, nothing else, you can go back, we still have a twist to deal with."
Sending Zhu Fan away, Zhu Yuanzhang came to the case, looked at the piles of twists and turns, and shook his head helplessly...
……
The next day, Fengtian Temple.
Zhu Yuanzhang took advantage of the courtesy of the ministers and rubbed his scarlet eyes.
Last night, he stayed up all night again to deal with the folding, and it was not until the sky was slightly bright that he went to bed and squinted for a while.
Now he just wanted to end the morning court as soon as possible, take advantage of his free time to squint for a while, and wait for his spirit to be replenished, and then go to listen to Lin Che's lecture.
