As long as a country or region has a population of more than one million, it is difficult to completely conquer it.

Especially if you come in from the outside, it will be difficult to kill you for a while.

Therefore, the most effective way is to provoke the enemy to fight.

It would be even more perfect if the leader of the enemy believed that the outside must first be at ease.

Zhu Qiyu also doesn't know what Ashikaga Yoshimasa and Ashikaga Narumi think, but for Ashikaga Naruma, Ashikaga Yoshimasa's father has a grudge against him for killing his father and brother. It is only right that the father and the son repay the debt.

was born from the same root, and Zhu Qiyu firmly believed that the two branches of the Ashikaga clan could not be reconciled.

This made the gang of bigwigs in Seoul bitter, and the emperor spoke to support the Kamakura shogunate, so everyone could only overcome all difficulties and send strategic materials over.

Armor, weapons, cannons, gunpowder, and even medicines, tea, and other items had to be transported directly to Kamakura after sailing more than 3,000 miles by sea, and supplies could not be supplied through Sakai Port and other places.

Although Han Minghun is very active in wanting to make meritorious contributions, this requirement is too embarrassing: "An Guogong, we have a lot of armor and weapons, after all, so many soldiers have died in several battles, and there are so many weapons and armor left behind that there is nowhere to put them."

But we did not have enough artillery, gunpowder, and the Japanese Kanto was too far away from us for the ships of our Korean sailors to be up to the task.

You can't use us as the Three Treasure Eunuchs' fleets in the West. ”

Xu Heng nodded: "Then you prepare weapons and armor, and collect the firearms and artillery that can be used, the more prepared the better, and then hand them over to the Ming army stationed in Busan for unified distribution." ”

Xu Heng made a concession, and Han Minghun couldn't insist anymore, so he quickly nodded and agreed.

In fact, aiding the Kamakura Shogunate was also secondary in Xu Heng's heart, and the more important purpose was to collect North Korean weapons and armor, concentrate them in Busan, and then a small part was used to support the Kamakura Shogunate, most of which were used by the Ming army, and those that were not used up were transported back by the Shandong Naval Division.

This was Qin Shi Huang's strategy back then: collect the world's soldiers and gather Xianyang.

Collecting North Korea's weapons, armor, firearms, and artillery now can effectively prevent its future rebellion.

……

April 15, early in the morning.

Zhu Qiyu got up and saw that it was raining again.

With so much rain this year, Zhu Qiyu is also a little anxious. Once the floods in Gyeonggi, Shandong, and Shanxi continue, it will be difficult to change the people.

It's okay for Shanxi to have a civil change, but if Shandong has a civil uprising, it's quite troublesome.

Zhu Qiyu thought about it for a long time, and it was easy to wait until Qianxue, Suxi, and Linglong came in with a large pot of fish.

"Fish stew in the morning?"

Qianxue smiled: "We have been busy all morning, just to make up for our husband." It's going to rain for another day, so eat something hot and hot, and then we'll go back to sleep. ”

Zhu Qiyu laughed at himself: "The national system of the Ming Dynasty is really well designed, the emperor does not go to the court, he still runs freely, and there are no powerful ministers usurping the throne and military generals rebelling." ”

Qianxue asked, "Then there are no shortcomings in this set of national policies formulated by Taizu?" ”

"From the ruler's point of view, Taizu has already designed it perfectly. If you have to talk about the shortcomings, there are probably three, one is that the clan is too favorable, if it is not forcefully controlled, it will definitely become a heavy burden on the court and the people.

The second is that this household registration and health center system has caused the people at the bottom to live extremely hard. At the slightest disturbance, the people rebelled one by one.

The early stage of the dynasty was fine, but at the end of the dynasty, the court was dragged to death by the people's rebellion.

The third is that Taizu took Dayuan as the Chinese Zhengshuo, which led to the entire ideological system being rotten from the root, which is the same as Sima's rule of the world with filial piety.

As a result, from the emperor to the civil and military officials, the pioneering spirit is seriously insufficient.

People of later generations will inevitably laugh at the Ming Dynasty's territory is too small, and there is no pioneering heart, and the territory is not as good as the Han and Tang Dynasties a thousand years ago.

Nothing else. For us, Taizu is really a good ancestor, he really thinks about his own children and grandchildren, and Xuanmiao is completely two extremes.

Our wise and martial Emperor Xuanmiao is another set of outlook on life: I can be happy myself, what will happen to future generations, it doesn't matter, what does it have to do with me.

To put it mildly, I am all the way with Taizu, don't look at me staying at home every day, but I really think about my children and grandchildren. ”

Qianxue said with a smile: "The labor intensity between you and Taizu is really worlds apart, and it is not the same. I heard that Taizu never stopped in the early and afternoon dynasties, and he got up early and dealt with the book in the dark, and one person could do the work of several people. ”

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "At that time, the national conditions were different from now, when the Ming Dynasty was established, it was not good if you were not diligent in government."

Now, even if I go to the early dynasty, it is a bunch of broken things of sesame grain every day; Even if I didn't eat, drink, or sleep and read the notebook, it didn't make much difference.

Nine out of ten of those notebooks are things that waste feelings.

This is the trap that the civil officials dug for the emperor, the more diligent you are, the more you will expend your energy on things that you don't know.

Like me is the right way, eat and drink well every day, and then quietly understand the national strategic thinking of the Ming Dynasty.

Tactical matters, let the generals of Wenchen worry about everything. ”

Qianxue teased with a smile: "As the husband spoke, he said that he was back to Emperor Wen of Han." ”

Zhu Qiyu smiled embarrassedly: "Emperor Wen of Han is right, the Han Dynasty is in his period, and the emperor is responsible for designing strategies."

Moreover, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty also wanted to fight very much, but the national strength at that time did not allow it.

Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty was purely engaged in strategy, and the other important ministers were indeed models for me to learn. I am better than his life, although the Xuanmiao and the reunification are foolish, but the Ming Dynasty is not declining, giving me a good opportunity to establish military merits.

Especially the change of this civil fort, it is really a hero of the times. ”

Lin Xiangyu smiled when she heard this: "Guardian hero, do you dare to fight the five concubines after eating fish?" ”

When Zhu Qiyu heard this, he sat up straight, straightened his sleeves, cleared his throat, and then slammed the table, and said to him: "The widow is cowardly, the widow doesn't dare." ”

Angry, Lin Xiangyu stretched out her hand and twisted Zhu Qiyu: "Just coax, why are you still panting." is so good-tempered, the slave family still thinks that you are as powerful as Lu Bu. ”

"What's mighty, Lu Bu will say: If the public does not give up, I am willing to worship as my father-in-law."

Qianxue smiled: "Don't make trouble, let's get down to business, the cabinet asks you, who will review the examination papers, and who will come up with the palace examination questions?" ”

"Will try to read the papers, Yao Kui and Geng Jiuchou preside. The palace exam questions, let He Wenyuan come out. ”

"Why is that?"

"I don't want to read the papers, this time the exams of Enke and Zhengke are combined, so many test papers, I can't finish the evaluation when I'm tired and vomiting blood.

As for the question, I tossed and turned in my stomach with a total of so many goods, and the question was about to be exposed.

Besides, you can't leave the ministers with no rights at all, otherwise they still have the motivation to work.

Wang Wen's son has participated in the examination, so Wang Wen must not be allowed to ask questions. Then it will be the turn of He Wenyuan, the secretary of the ministry.

And He Wenyuan is a supporter of Yi Chu, so I have to have a favor to show my trust. ”

Qianxue nodded, and asked again: "Wang Ao has arrived in Beijing, Wang Wen asked for instructions on how you should be settled?" ”

"Let the Three Law Divisions examine whether Wang Ao knows what Li Chun did in Liaodong, and at least he must be guilty of dereliction of duty.

and when Warat invaded, why Wang Ao couldn't shrink back and watched tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians being captured by the enemy, which was also a dereliction of duty.

This meaning, you let Pei Dang personally convey it to Wang Wen, don't put it into words.

I don't want to do anything to Wang Ao, he is decent, he writes to ask Zhishi to forget about the matter, go home and pick up the child. ”

"Are you here to check Liaodong, or are you trying to force Wang Ao back?"

"I mainly want to force Wang Ao back, and now there are only two loyal ministers of Xuanmiao at the level of Shangshu, one Wang Ao and one Yu Qian.

The loyal ministers of the Xuanmiao at the level of the squire have all been killed by me.

When all the loyal ministers of Xuanmiao at the level of Shangshu and Shilang leave the court, they can send Zhu Qizhen on the road.

Otherwise, I am here to punish the king of Yi and abolish the prince, and suddenly stab and kill a loyal minister of Xuanmiao, how embarrassing the scene is. ”
