Chapter 16 (Part 1) Song of the Sea(2/2)
"Is that so? Goryeo is too hateful. It is said that two countries are fighting for war. If they don't kill the envoys, it's even more unsupported." The people in the teahouse heard someone telling the story of Liaodong, and then they surrounded the scholars. The teahouse owner knew that they had caught up with a good deal today, so they happily carried the pot and ran around the crowd. Usually, once someone told a story here, the harvest that day would definitely be much higher, and this time it seemed that it would be no exception.
"Then Goryeo, do you think it's my dynasty? You'll tell me the rules of not killing the envoys. But what's so annoying is that these grandsons killed my Ming envoys to buy the Mongolians. They were afraid that my Ming envoys would take revenge, so they insisted that the envoys committed suicide. Then why did the envoys commit suicide? The envoys committed suicide? None of the 100 followers came back alive. Isn't this an obvious killing to silence them?" The scholar became more and more angry and stood up, "Tell me, do you think this Goryeo still have shame?"
"It's fucking hateful enough. Are they not afraid of retribution?"! People around them were also angry and talked a lot.
"Retribution, they were smart. In five years, our court lost the war. The civil officials of the court immediately persuaded Long live to stop the army with the story of Emperor Yang of Sui's attack on Liaodong. The Goryeo took the opportunity to occupy half of Liaodong. At that time, there were only a few lonely cities and Lionkou (Lushun) left in Liaodong. Seeing that the Goryeo could not get it, they came to make peace, and even used the name of selling horses to mix spies from Naha in the caravan. They had been caught by my Ming Dynasty several times. However, my main opponent at that time was Mongolia and had always endured Goryeo." The scholar calmed down a little, and someone immediately brought him tea and waited for his following.
"In the seventh year of Hongwu, the Goryeo people shamelessly asked the emperor for fire on the pretext of helping us fight against the Japanese. The emperor asked them to drive the anti-Japanese ships over to see them. They had not driven one of them in three or four years. What's even more annoying is that last year, Xu Da's northern expedition, the Goryeo people colluded with the Mongols and took advantage of the emptiness of our Liaodong to swallow up the remaining Liaoyang and 30,000 guards. If it weren't for Jinzhou's seaside, my Ming Navy would have been defending the entire Liaodong, and the entire Liaodong would have no inch of my land. Seeing that Nahachu was killed by Wuhou, the King of Yan was preparing to pacify Liao in Beiping. The Goryeo people began to pretend to be grandson again and gave me 100 kilograms of gold and 10,000 taels of platinum. Please allow them to defend Liaodong for my Ming Dynasty."
"Did the emperor agree to him?"
"You think, can the emperor agree? I couldn't make any effort in the past two years. This time I had time, how could I not deal with him? Can the emperor see that little money? I immediately asked Song Lian to reply to Gao Li, which was found in the newspaper. I remember it as if it was something like 'I am a bright person and I dare not sell it. Thank you for the beautiful meaning, the King of Yan will come to take it back'. Anyway, this time the emperor was determined to take back Liaodong, otherwise he would not have approved the King of Yan to sell the land in Liaodong so soon."
"Oh", everyone suddenly realized that they asked the waiter to change the pot of tea and asked the scholar to tell the story of the Japanese again. The story of the Japanese envoy is the version of Xia Chu. The scholar has said it many times, but everyone never gets tired of listening to the scholar. They always like to listen to the scholar repeating it again and again. Seeing that there are many new faces among the onlookers, the scholar became energetic again, tasted the tea, cleared his throat, and told the story of the Japanese again.
It turned out that the Ming Dynasty cultivated Haiwei and built customs. The navy and the Japanese pirates fought several battles. Although the navy warships had not yet been replaced, Cao Zhen and Fang Mingqian were good at governing the army, especially Fang Mingqian, who was one of the best heroes at the sea. This time he went to sea, countless old subordinates came to surrender, which was like a tiger. With his bulky treasure ship, he actually beat the Japanese pirates and fled far away when they saw the Ming Dynasty. Seeing that the situation was getting worse and worse, the Japanese pirates sent envoys to threaten them. The traitor was the one who caught the knife, and the 4-6-6-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-
At present, scholars shook their heads and recited the letter from the Japanese envoy: "I heard that the Three Emperors and the Five Emperors Zen Buddhism only have a master in China, but how can the barbarians have no king? The vast universe is not the sovereignty of one master, and the universe is wide and prosperous, and they are all states to defend. The world is the world of the world, not the world of one person. I live in a far-reaching and weak Japanese country, and have a small city less than sixty, and the city is less than three thousand, and I still have a sense of contentment. Your Majesty is the lord of China, and is the king of ten thousand cities. There are more than thousands of cities and a million miles of borders. There are still a lack of intentions, and they often have the intention of extinction. The sky has a murderous intent, and the stars have changed. The earth has a murderous intent, and the dragon and snake have a murderous intent. People have murderous intent, and the heaven and earth have repeated. In the past, Yao and Shun have a murderous intent.
De, guests from all over the world, Tang, Wu Shiren, and tribute from all directions.
I heard that the Celestial Empire had plans to raise wars, and small countries also had plans to defend against enemies. The papers include Confucius and Mencius’s moral articles, and the martial arts were discussed.
Sun, Wu Taoluo's military strategy. I also heard that Your Majesty selected his best generals and set up elite troops to invade the ministers' territory. The land of water and water, the mountains
The continent of the sea has its own preparations, how can you kneel down and worship it? If you follow it, you may not be born, and if you rebel, you may not be dead. If you meet, you may not be dead.
In front of the mountain, I talk about playing tricks, so why should my ministers be afraid? If the king wins and loses his ministers, he will be full of the intention of the superior country. If the minister wins and loses his king, he will become a small country.
The difference. Since ancient times, peace is the best, and war is the best, so as to avoid the trouble of living beings and save the hardships of the common people. I sent envoys to bow to him respectfully
Danbi, only the country's map..." The threat said that if the Ming Dynasty intentionally invaded each other, it would repeat the mistakes of the Mongolian navy.
"Okay, Wang Ruyu, stop showing off your memory. Let's talk about how the emperor answered today." Someone who knew the scholar forced his interest and urged him to say the following.
"You are so anxious, please listen to the boy's explanation." The scholar slammed the table with a fan and learned to be a storyteller. Everyone knew that the good show was coming, so they held their breath.
"Long live the Ming Dynasty and read the Japanese envoy's letter. He only approved two words and threw them back to the ground. After the Japanese envoy opened it, his face turned pale and he staggered away. The two words are, wait for a while."
Boom, everyone applauded and laughed, "Okay, please wash your necks and go home and wait. My Ming Navy will sooner or later climb the coast of Japan. At that time, I will join the army and kill a few Japanese pirates to relieve my anger."
"Ru Yu, I heard that you don't study hard, so you went to the teahouse to sell your mouth during the day." At night, Wang Hao, who had been tired of training cavalry and infantry for a whole day, returned home and scolded him when he saw his son.
"Uncle Wu lit the fire, my classmates and I were just going to pour some oil on it," Wang Ruyu said happily.
"This child is grown up." Wang Hao stopped saying anything and thought silently. He did not expect that in the original history, his son who did not like to read, he brought people to compile the first encyclopedia of China, "Yongle Encyclopedia", and many Chinese classics were preserved due to his efforts. He did not expect that under the inspiration of Wang Ruyu and others, with the footsteps of merchants from south to north, the whole country actually set off a craze to purchase land in Liaodong. Many people not only for the cheap land, but also for the land of Liaodong not to fall into the hands of foreign invaders. One tael of silver is equivalent to a few more bullets to destroy the enemy. The black soil has never been seen, which makes many people dream of it.
The rolling silver quickly turned into artillery shells, armor, sabers, and muskets. The new army of Peking developed and grew rapidly with these silvers. In August, the court officially ordered the recognizing the establishment of the King of Yan's army and changed the name of the new army of Peking to the Zhenbei Army. What made the people of Peking happy was that this increasingly powerful Zhenbei Army was strict in discipline and never disturbed the people. Every day, colorful clothes could be seen in the schoolyard left by the Mongols.
The Zhenbei Army, with strange clothes, was lined up, marching, shooting, and sting. Outside the city, the rumbling sound of live artillery fire reminded people that this army had accumulated almost the same strength and could give the enemy a fatal blow at any time. At night, it was rare to see the Zhenbei Army coming out to have fun. In front of the barracks, the four-wheeled carriages sent by the army to pick up and drop off the teachers from Peking Academy to teach. In the brightly lit camp, soldiers recruited from all over the place would read their names for the first time.
"It's very good here. Please rest assured that my parents are reading. I will write my own letter to you next year." The soldiers who asked someone to bring money and letters to report to their parents. "My son has military pay every month, and the army does not raise a bow and worship ceremony, and no officials bully me. His Highness, the Northern Expedition, is over. If we are unwilling to stay in the army, he will recommend us to work in the factory in Peking Prefecture." Workers are no longer a new term in the eyes of soldiers. There are more fresh terms waiting for them to be familiar with, such as personal insurance, beneficiaries, camouflage uniforms, and the curious zipper on the clothes.
At the request of Wu'anguo, the Peking Academy used the funds provided by the Zhenbei Army to give priority to the research of more new military items, such as simple rainproof cloth made of fire paint and thick cloth, rainproof tents, moisture-proof sleeping bags with wool glued, etc. For more time, he tried his best to create an equal atmosphere among the officers and soldiers of the Zhenbei Army through his actions. He also persuaded Zhu Di, Chang Mao and others to pass a military discipline, that is, no officer of the first-level level can punish soldiers at will, regardless of the soldiers or
Whether the officers are guilty or not, they are all decided by an institution called the Military Law Department. "If you want them to move forward bravely and know etiquette and shame, first of all, you need to respect their lives and dignity." He stressed earnestly, regardless of whether Zhu Di and others could understand it. Wu Anguo knew that he was not a saint, and he also hoped to be high and enjoy the service of others. However, he knew better in his heart that he was at this historical node and had to persist because he knew the direction of another history.
Sometimes, he was also imagining a possibility that if he paid a small price, would he be the emperor and the ruler of the country be more labor-saving? After thinking about it, he could only smile at himself. What can he do as an emperor? On this basis, can he do better than Zhu Yuanzhang? He can learn from history, but his descendants, growing up in an environment with distinct distinction between high and low, will he know to respect others and respect life? History is like a heavy train, moving along the established track as always. If the underlying structure of society is not changed, even gods cannot make it turn. Changes promoted by power and violence may be more backward when power disappears.
