I have never thought about taking charge of the army.

Ever since she knew her identity, Zhu Ying never thought that she would have the possibility of going to the battlefield in person.

From all aspects, it seems that this possibility does not exist.

But now, the old man has brought it up.

This made Zhu Ying not sure how to answer for a moment.

"Does Grand Sun think he can't fight, or does he have other ideas?" Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang asked directly.

Zhu Ying replied, "Grandpa, my grandson did engage in some small fights before, but when leading the army in the war, he always just talked on paper, and in the end he felt a little unsure."

Although she is very successful in business, Zhu Ying has her own self-awareness.

Military talent is a very wonderful thing to talk about, and the aspects involved are not enough for some theoretical knowledge.

The so-called incompetence of one general and the exhaustion of the entire army is not just a matter of a few.

He didn't understand why the old man suddenly wanted to lead the army himself.

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "These eldest grandsons don't need to worry too much. When we go to Liaodong this time, Liang Guogong and others will naturally follow us. Then the eldest grandsons will just study hard."

"We have always been very clear in our hearts that the Great Sun wants to split the land and open up new territories, but there are some things that do not mean that we can just sit in the capital or in the court."

"As an emperor, you cannot allow others to override your authority in all aspects."

"We also know that in Da Sun's mind, he only needs to control the military power and let outstanding generals lead the sergeants."

"But the eldest grandson has ever thought about what would happen if one day, a certain general achieves extraordinary achievements and even surpasses the eldest grandson in terms of reputation."

When Zhu Yuanzhang said this, he almost mentioned Lan Yu without naming him.

The current Lan Yu is still very young, and such a young Lan Yu has now taken the position of Duke of the State and is still a famous general of the generation.

Based on history, why did Zhu Yuanzhang kill Lan Yu?

In the final analysis, the ultimate reason is fear.

If Prince Zhu Biao had not died, would Lan Yu have been killed?

In fact, it can be seen from many aspects that Lan Yu will definitely be taken away before Zhu Yuanzhang comes to power.

Even now, Zhu Yuanzhang has no intention of keeping Lan Yu.

Even if it is said that the current Lan Yu has undergone many changes, even the current Lan Yu, from all aspects, is very respectful to the great grandson.

Zhu Yuanzhang even promised Da Sun that he would not kill Lan Yu.

In fact, in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, Lan Yu has long been a mortal person.

It's not because of merit, but because in Zhu Yuanzhang's view, Lan Yu has no reward left.

If they just guard the Ming Dynasty, then it doesn't matter. They just slowly take away the military power from Lan Yu's hands.

Da Sun said before that he was indeed doing such a thing.

But after he hired Lan Yu to go to Shaanxi to deal with the uprising of Tian Jiucheng and others, Zhu Yuanzhang still felt that Lan Yu could not be retained.

As long as Dasun has ambitions outside, Lan Yu will definitely continue to make contributions.

Zhu Yuanzhang is very clear about the nature of blue jade.

It is said that the country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change.

Now Sapphire is restricted in many aspects, so he has begun to keep a low profile, but what if the credit becomes more?

Zhu Yuanzhang's own character is suspicious.

Such a description is not necessarily a good word for ordinary people, even ministers and generals.

But when this word is used on the emperor, the concept is completely different.

Since ancient times, naive emperors have never been able to firmly control power in their own hands.

The position of the emperor is inherently ruthless. Whenever there is any situation involving the majesty of the imperial power itself, this hidden danger should be dealt with immediately.

Throughout history, there have been many such precedents.

The most typical one is that Sima Yi captured Cao Wei's kingdom.

When Sima Yi was in power, didn't the descendants of the Cao family have any doubts at all?

There must be some, and there are quite a few people who make snitches.

And they chose to believe it.

The final result was that when Sima Yi seized the throne of emperor, the Cao family was completely exterminated.

Regarding this period of history, Zhu Yuanzhang's memory was very profound when he saw it.

Therefore, no matter what the situation is, he will not let the old Zhu family, even if there is a slight possibility, be like the Cao family in the past.

Zhu Yuanzhang clearly knew that he would receive some infamy if he executed these old brothers, but Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care.

Now, he just wanted to tell his grandson the same idea.

"If you want to use someone, especially if that person is of great use, you must be able to control him and be familiar with him."

"My eldest grandson has grown up outside the palace since he was a child. I believe he can understand some things clearly without me having to explain them."

"But my grandson is not familiar with those old brothers in Huaixi. In some aspects, sometimes it is not as simple as you think."

Zhu Yuanzhang said in a deep voice.

After hearing the old man's words, Zhu Ying's expression began to become serious, especially when he mentioned the Huaixi Generals Group.

Does the appearance of Sapphire Eucalyptus only refer to Sapphire alone?

What Zhu Yuanzhang really wanted to kill was never Lan Yu alone, but the entire Huaixi noble generals group.

The implication of "Lanyu Eucalyptus" was huge. Not only Lan Yu's family was killed, but also generals Fu Youde, Feng Sheng, Wang Bi, etc. were killed at the same time.

A total of one duke, thirteen princes, and two uncles were killed, and more than fifteen thousand people were implicated in the killing.

"The old generals of Yuan Gong have died one after another."

In the entire Ming Dynasty, almost all the heroes and famous generals were slaughtered.

Just look at the records of guilty ministers left by Zhu Yuanzhang at the end and you will know.

Almost 90% of these more than 15,000 people are members of the Huaixi Generals Group.

In other words, since the founding of the People's Republic of China, all the heroes and generals have been basically killed. Except for Tang He who saved his life, the heroes who survived under Zhu Yuanzhang are very rare. Zhu Yuanzhang has also become a typical representative of the people who killed the heroes since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

.

Could it be said that these people are the same as Lan Yu? They also want to rebel? They also raped the princess?

No, absolutely not!

These people who were killed had an obvious common feature, that is, they were all heroes. After killing these people, Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial power was undoubtedly more stable, and no one could shake the Zhu family's power!

Even though the current grandson is very good, in Zhu Yuanzhang's view, the hidden dangers are even greater.

Because as the war begins, the Huaixi generals group, which originally only held general military power in today's world, will become increasingly difficult to control later on.

It can even grow into a towering tree.

At that time, will Sapphire still be like now?

It didn't happen and no one knows.

But Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want his eldest son to gamble on this possibility.

"Grandpa, my grandson understands."

After Zhu Ying thought carefully in her heart, she nodded seriously and said.

Imperial power is never such a simple thing.

The human heart cannot withstand even the slightest test.

If he were to change his position, if he had the power in his hands to subvert the current imperial power, would he still be a minister honestly?

This question has long been answered in the history of China.

Seeing Da Sun's recognition, Zhu Yuanzhang was very pleased.

Because an emperor who is not ruthless enough may not be a good emperor, but only in this way can the old Zhu family's empire be stable.

"Dasun can think more about things on the grassland now."

"Although those barbarians on the grassland have a large number of cavalry, our cannons are not vegetarian."

"Especially when it comes to frightening horses. It's very easy to get rid of the harassment of horses."

"They are indeed very fast, but Da Sun must understand one thing. Even if they are horses that run very fast, they still have time to rest."

"And even the strongest warriors on the grassland have their own camps."

"Although our sergeants of the Ming Dynasty are not as fast as the prairie cavalry, these cavalry also have their own parents, wives and children."

At this point, Zhu Yuanzhang's meaning is already obvious.
