Chapter Seventy-Nine: Changes in the Ming Dynasty.

After another three years of recuperation, the Ming Dynasty became more prosperous, and Zhang Wuji issued an order that shocked the world.

The Ming Dynasty is the middle of the world, the Han people are the sons of the gods, and the god Lin Jian issued a decree to eliminate all heretics.

The land of the Ming Dynasty must reach all the land where the sun shines, so as to fulfill the will of the gods.

As soon as this will came out, the world was in an uproar, and I didn't understand what Zhang Wuji was trying to do.

Now the Ming Kingdom is rich and strong, and all the small countries around it regard the Ming Dynasty as the Celestial Empire, so why bother to provoke wars for some land.

Many elderly ministers wrote to Zhang Wuji to consider it carefully, forgetting to fight will be dangerous, and belligerent will die.

Zhang Wuji ignored these old immortal requests, and had a bad reputation, but made another will.

All the Han people of the Ming court, as long as they participated in the battle against the barbarians in the four directions, they could obtain official land according to the size of their merits.

The land only needed to pay taxes to the Ming Dynasty on time, and the rest were left to the officials on the land to do whatever they wanted.

Although the conditions are good, there are very few masters in the rivers and lakes, in their opinion, the Central Plains is the best place, the region of the barbarians, even if they want to be emperors, they are not willing to go.

Only a small number of them were really unable to get along in the Central Plains, so they reluctantly responded to Zhang Wuji's call and followed the army to the expedition.

They didn't think about being officials in the barbarian tribe at all, but wanted to go to war to grab a sum of money, and then go back to Daming to enjoy the life of a rich man.

The people in the rivers and lakes can choose to refuse Zhang Wuji's order, but the army can only obey, no matter how unwilling they are to go to the barbarian territory in their hearts, but under the military order, they have to obey.

The 300,000 army and tens of thousands of people in the rivers and lakes who could not get along in the Central Plains each chose a direction and launched an attack on the East Yi and the North Barbarians and Nandi, which were closest to the Ming Dynasty.

Countless armies are simply invincible with the people in the rivers and lakes, although the role of the people in the rivers and lakes in the frontal battle is not great.

But it can't stand that these people in the rivers and lakes have a few skills to watch their own hands, and they are responsible for checking the enemy's situation and transmitting military information, which is a few points faster than the previous 800-mile expedited speed.

Those who are good at poisoning are poisoning water sources in enemy-occupied areas, and those who are good at assassination are assassinating officials of the empire.

Countless strange people and strange things showed their skills on the battlefield, and the commander who led the troops hoped that Zhang Wuji would not let these loosely disciplined people follow them on the expedition.

In their opinion, although the personal force of the people in the rivers and lakes is good, it is difficult to play a role in such a large-scale war, let alone help, and it is not bad if it does not lag behind.

I didn't expect the current effect to be so big, which profoundly made them realize Zhang Wuji's vision.

The Ming Dynasty suddenly attacked, and before these small countries around them could react, they found that their grain and grass had been burned, officials had been killed, and the city was in chaos, and it was difficult to organize resistance.

By the time they reacted, the Ming army had already reached their capital.

The barbarian monarchs of various countries looked confused, they were vassal states of the Ming Dynasty, and their annual tribute was not less, so they couldn't understand why the Ming Dynasty wanted to fight them.

A small number of barbarians chose to resist to the death, and most of them chose to surrender, in their opinion, they can't fight, it's better to surrender, anyway, they have always belonged to the Ming Dynasty in name.

The nobles of the Celestial Empire took a fancy to their land, which was their honor, and maybe the nobles of the Celestial Empire found that it was not as good as the Central Plains, and returned the land to them.

Even if this place becomes the boundary of the Great Tomorrow Dynasty and never leaves, they can naturally become the people of the Celestial Empire.

As long as you can become the most noble citizen of the Celestial Empire in the world, it is worth giving up a small country, and I heard that the Great Tomorrow Dynasty is not bad for the nobles who surrendered.

The expedition of the army went unexpectedly smoothly, and I thought it would take three years to conquer the surrounding small countries, but I didn't expect it to take less than half a year.

The reason for the success is that the army is strong, the second is that the people in the rivers and lakes cooperate with the army unexpectedly well, and the most important thing is that the small countries basically surrendered without resistance.

In the past six months, the army only began to fight a few battles, and then it was constantly accepting the city and living to deal with small-scale resistance.

In one fell swoop, more than 100 small countries were conquered, and the Quartet army left the necessary garrisons in each country, and the others returned triumphantly with rich booty.

Hundreds of the king's captives were also brought to Zhang Wuji at the same time and submitted to him.

Zhang Wuji did not embarrass these kings' captives, but gave them back their wives and daughters, and gave them rich rewards and the status of people from the Celestial Empire.

The kings of various small countries were overjoyed and grateful to Zhang Wuji, in their opinion, the identity of a person from the Celestial Empire was much more noble than the identity of the king of the small country before them.

Seeing the prosperity of the Central Plains, they never wanted to return to their barbarian hometown.

There are also many people in the rivers and lakes who returned triumphantly with the army, and the return of these people in the rivers and lakes has given many Ming Ziming different feelings.

In a village in the south of the Yangtze River in the Ming Dynasty, a group of villagers stood at the entrance of the village and discussed.

An old man said to the people around him in disbelief: "Our village's big fool has returned from the war in the south, and I heard that he has made a lot of money, is this true?"

A young man dressed as a farmer sneered and said, "Don't listen to people's nonsense, who is Dasha? The stupidest person in our village is the stupidest person in the whole village, and he has brute force and can't do anything."

Let him hoe a field, he can kill all the crops, if it weren't for the relief food given by the imperial court, it is estimated that he would have starved to death.

Just like him, if he can make a fortune, our whole village will be rich people. ”

The people around nodded and agreed with the farmer's words, if people like Dasha could make a fortune, their whole village would be immortals.

Only one woman next to her wondered: "Dasha came back that day, it seems that he really brought a big box, what if he really made a fortune?"

Everyone said in unison: "Dasha has made a fortune, let's all eat together!"

At this moment, a tall man with well-developed limbs and dull eyes walked towards the crowd.

"Uncles, aunts and uncles, I've been looking for you for a long time, why are you all gathered here?"

The young man dressed as a farmer sneered: "Now is not the busy season for farming, of course everyone is gathered here to talk for a while, are we going to war?"

The people around also smiled and said: "Dasha, don't go to the next war, you won't be able to earn a few dollars, it's better to help build a house and move bricks in the village, this kind of work can be done without skills."

With your strength, maybe you can build a new house in a few years, and then you will find a foolish wife, a woman who is alive and widowed, give birth to a few babies, and live a good life!"

Dasha's face turned red: "I don't want a fool to be a wife, I don't want a woman from Kefu, what I have now is money." ”

Saying that, Dasha took out a handful of golden melon seeds from his arms and handed them to the villagers: "This is what His Majesty the Emperor rewarded me for my merits, you have taken care of me for so many years, and I gave it to you, which can be regarded as repaying your kindness." ”

Everyone looked at the golden melon seeds in Dasha's hand and were dumbfounded, as if it was really gold?

The man dressed as a farmer stepped forward and took one from Dasha's hand, bit it with his teeth, looked at it, and looked shocked: "It's really gold!"

The villagers are crazy, they usually use copper plates in this village, and there are a few pieces of silver at most, and if anyone has a gold ring, it is a local tyrant.

What did they see now? The poorest in the village, the unclear brained Dasha has a ton of gold!

Is this true? Many people pinch their thighs and suspect that they are dreaming.

It's a pity that this is true, and Dasha still wants to give them gold?

Dasha gave no one a golden melon seed to the villagers, and was about to turn around and go home, when a woman grabbed him.

"Dasha, tell me how you earned this golden melon seed with the emperor?"

Others also set their sights on Dasha, and they were also curious about how Dasha made money for someone with an abnormal brain.

Dasha has no scheming, he will say whatever others ask. But in the village, a lot of seedlings were killed by hoeing and plowing, and they couldn't get any better, so they went to the south with the army to fight.

After walking for more than a month, I met a kind of person who was a little darker than us and spoke differently from us.

The commander of the army, seeing my strength, told me to carry the shield, and after a few months I came back. ”

Dasha said, but the villagers didn't react, and asked, "What happened later?"

Dasha thought for a moment and said, "Later, the commander of the army wanted to give me a large piece of land, which is bigger than my village combined, but I don't know how to farm, so it's useless to ask for land.

The commander of the army gave me a box of melon seeds, and I'll be back?"

The people of the whole village are confused, this is the end? After carrying the shield for a few months, they earned a box of gold and a large piece of land, is this true?

Although they don't believe it, but Dasha has taken out all the gold, so they can't believe it, facts speak louder than words.

The middle-aged woman who said before that Dasha built a house and wanted to introduce his wife to him walked to Dasha's side flatteringly.

"Dasha, don't you still have a daughter-in-law?

Dasha hurriedly shook his head and refused: "Auntie, I don't have a daughter-in-law, but I can't want a widower and a fool." ”

The villagers were speechless, this big fool is not stupid, and they know not to look for fools and widowed women.

The middle-aged woman patted her for a moment, and said with a smile: "What are you talking about, how can your aunt introduce you to such a woman, what do you think of your aunt's daughter?

Dasha showed a look of surprise on his face, and said without hesitation: "Really? How can I be worthy of your daughter, I dare not dream of it!"

The villagers showed an inexplicable expression, Dasha is now a rich man, whose woman does not want to marry him to enjoy happiness, and the reaction of the middle-aged woman is also expected by them.

If it weren't for the fact that their daughter's appearance was not as good as that of a middle-aged woman's, I am afraid that they would have gone up to ask Dasha a long time ago.

The man dressed as a farmer has complicated feelings, the daughter of a middle-aged woman is a flower in the whole village, as long as she is a young man, there is no one who doesn't like her, and now she is married to Dasha?

If it weren't for Dasha and being rich, how could he marry such a beautiful girl? Where was he worse than him? Just because he went out to fight?

When the farmer dressed up as a man and decided to recruit troops in the next battle, he panicked and had to follow.

The people in the village have the same idea as the man dressed as a farmer, and the next time there is a war, the whole family will go out with the army and come back with a box of gold.

Dasha is immersed in the happiness of marrying the village flower right away.

In a small and medium-sized city in the Ming Dynasty, a man like a monkey swaggered down the street and came to a passenger station.

The guys at the bus station recognized this monkey-like man, wasn't this their former colleague Monkey?

The appearance of the monkey has not changed, but the outside is very different, the previous monkey character wears a ragged clothes every day, and works the same as them, but now it is covered in silk and satin, and there is a gold chain around the neck that can tie the dog?

The guys at the freight station didn't dare to be monkeys, thinking that these were two people with extremely similar appearances, but the difference between before and after was too great.

The shopkeeper of the freight station also saw the monkey, and he didn't dare to recognize it, just as this local tyrant looked like the guy he drove away before.

The owner of the cargo station respectfully walked up to the monkey: "Boss, do you have anything to do?"

The monkey smiled in surprise and said, "Shopkeeper, I am the monkey who was driven away by you before, you don't know me anymore?"

The shopkeeper was stunned, thinking that he had misheard: "Boss, what did you just say? ”

The guy at the cargo station was also confused, thinking that something was wrong with his ears.

The monkey shouted, "Are you deaf?" I said I was the guy you drove away, monkey. ”

Everyone heard this, and the shopkeeper of the passenger station said in disbelief: "You are a monkey, impossible, you must be joking." ”

The guys were sure that this was the monkey who had been working with them before, so they threw down the guy in their hands and ran to the monkey with an excited face.

"Brother Monkey, is it really you? I haven't seen you for more than half a year, where did you make a fortune?"

The monkey said hello to his former partner proudly, and then turned to the owner of the freight station.

"I was just delayed a little bit of time when I was delivering the goods before, and you drove me away, don't use me, what do you say this is?"

The owner of the cargo terminal finally determined that it was a monkey, and he stopped talking nonsense when he heard his unkind words.

"I don't need you, I don't need you, what else do you want? This is under the Ming court, can you still beat me?

I don't think you can turn over like a waste, so what? I advise you to leave quickly, or I'll sue you for trespassing on my cargo station. ”

The monkey took off the chain around the dog's neck and slapped it on the table. "This chain weighs fifty taels, buy your cargo station, and by the way, let yourself slap yourself in the mouth, you think about it.

If you say you won't buy it, I'll leave without saying a word. ”

The owner of the cargo terminal was silent, not knowing what to choose.
