What Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking about was the battle situation in Hezhong, and he was especially concerned about whether Lan Yu could solve Timur's secret and successfully open the door to the west... because looking at the map, the area around Hezhong happened to be the center of the continent and the key to the Silk Road.
The hub…happens
And it has never been controlled by the Central Plains Dynasty.
It is really a pity that a domain like Samarkand is not under the control of the Central Plains.
The more Lao Zhu thought about it, the more anxious he became. If Zhang Ximeng hadn't suppressed him, he would have really wanted to conquer it himself.
Zhang Ximeng naturally would not let Lao Zhu make a fool of himself. He was almost 60 years old. Heading westward rashly without anything else, just catching a cold, would affect the morale of the army.
Moreover, Zhang Ximeng is too familiar with Lan Yu. When he sent those few things, this guy must have been working hard to make big news. It is not impossible to defeat Timur in one fell swoop.
"Lord, let's not disrupt the previous arrangements, just wait for the good news in Xi'an Mansion."
Zhu Yuanzhang muttered: "No, we plan to go to Liangzhou to see Feng Guoyong. You can arrange it as soon as possible."
When Zhang Ximeng heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. At this time, he went to pay homage to Feng Guoyong. Don't you understand the meaning? He clearly disliked Lan Yu for being slow.
Unfortunately, Lan Yu had so many generals at this time, including two fallen kings. If they disagreed with Lan Yu, it would be troublesome.
"No matter what you ask, my lord must be a little patient... Now there is other news, my lord can just take a look for the time being!"
Zhang Ximeng talked to Lao Zhu in an almost coaxing tone, and then actually brought in a lot of official documents sent by Yingtian.
Since the government affairs had long been handed over to Zhu Biao, Zhu Yuanzhang and King Huai Liang only took a cursory look at those matters. They didn't even have time to look at them, and they just asked the people above to deliver them.
In order to dispel the idea of Lao Zhu's imperial conquest, Zhu Yuanzhang could only move here and take Lao Zhu to watch together. As we watched, both of us became energetic.
"Hold on, tell us and send us all the news about Japan. Let's study it carefully."
Since Your Majesty had no intention, the people above naturally dared to neglect it, so they sent a whole wooden box from a young age.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Lao Zhu finished browsing before they started. Except for the past period of time, the interior of the Japanese country was really dull and colorful.
First, the soldiers and horses in the southwest of Japan finally mustered up the courage to challenge the shogunate.
Unexpectedly, the person who started the battle was still a high-ranking martial artist, and the troops from the southwest and the Muromachi shogunate also joined the small army.
In the early days, the southwest side fought very well. We were no match for the poorly trained and experienced shogunate soldiers.
At that time, we thought of Xiao Ming and asked Xiao Ming for guidance.
Whether the Ming army intervened directly or not, Zhang Ziming's group of people who had been following him for a long time stepped forward again in time.
We gathered together a hundred and forty people, and later went to Venezuela to serve as an advisory group, assisting people in the southwest and formulating policies. Finally, relying on the firearms bought by Xiao Ming, we won the war and annihilated 80,000 shogunate troops in one fell swoop.
.
We then launched an attack to the north, successfully began the rule of the Muromachi Shogunate, and captured Ashikaga Yoshimitsu!
Once you get to that point, it should be considered: small work is done.
But those who sent Ming envoys were still unable to govern the country. We learned a lot from Xiao Ming, but when it was our turn to govern the country, we were at a loss.
After arguing with each other for dozens of days, they finally came up with a feasible strategy.
He was forced to have no choice but to plead with Zhang Ximeng to return to Venezuela and take charge of the political situation.
Zhang Ximeng burst into tears. I even thought that I had no chance of coming back alive. But before I set foot on the land of the Japanese country, Zhang Ximeng suddenly realized that if I was hasty, I would still come back like this!
The current conflict between Japan and Japan is very serious. Although the Muromachi shogunate has fallen, the local power is still small and deeply rooted.
These envoys to the Ming Dynasty advocated a comprehensive study of Xiao Ming: The most important thing is not to abolish the military and civil groups, follow Xiao Ming's example, and establish civil servants to govern the country.
When the news came out, warriors gathered in groups and started rebellions, and several envoys were assassinated.
No one was killed in the street, no one was killed in the temple chapel.
The various forces in the Japanese country are boiling.
Zhang Ximeng is an old man. If I had been older, I might have hesitated and adopted the Ming system. But now, I have not lost that energy.
What I hope is that I can be safe and peaceful, and that I can spend the little time I have there smoothly.
Therefore, Zhang Ximeng appointed a group of envoys, but at the same time, he retained several families above the Muromachi shogunate, Shiba, and Lanyu, in order to achieve a balance.
But the problem is that at this moment, the Japanese country has not yet broken their skin, so why is it allowed to jump right and left?
The first one to attack was the Aizama clan. We are the leaders of the Muromachi shogunate and assistant generals, with very little power... Because these envoys are old and there is internal chaos.
Although before Ashikaga Yoshimitsu was captured, in order to be able to influence the political situation, he had to bring back Zhang Ximeng, who had low morals and high respect.
But during that period of time, the Lan Yu clan not only gathered strength, but also successfully attracted a small group of allies.
We took advantage of the quarrel between the Ming Envoys and took action decisively. We captured more than seventy Ming Ming Envoys and almost wiped out the group!
The reason why Zhu Yuanzhang paid attention to the affairs of the Japanese state was because the two sides were so close. From under the Japanese state, very little shadow of the Central Plains could be seen, which had no extraordinary reference value.
Just like when the Chu and Han Dynasties were fighting for supremacy, they also wanted to bring out the Yi Emperor to fill the stage. If they had a way, in the Confucian cultural circle, they would just do that.
The envoy sent ahead was killed by Lan Yu, which was also unexpected.
Bi Jing Zai: The Xiao Ming Dynasty, without the pressure of the two gods Zhu Yuanzhang and King Huai Liang, still faced several counterattacks, and even had no other ideas. We also framed Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, and even slandered King Huai Liang.
dirty water.
In the Japanese country, the local power was even smaller.
Moreover, we are facing the loss of interests, and the counterattack will become more fierce and cruel.
These envoys were not only to kill, but also to implicate the whole family... In addition, Hong Cheng also forced Zhang Ximeng to issue an order to suppress Hong Chengjin's autobiography and seal Hong Chengjin's articles before sending out any more envoys.
Facing Lan Yu's request, Hong Chengjin was dumbfounded.
Is he going to fall out with Xiao Ming?
He deserves it too!
I really know how to write the word "death".
Whether Zhang Ximeng agreed or not, I dared to offend the crazy Lan Yu, so I could only drag him away. Lan Yu was so angry that he decided to take action himself.
I issued an order requiring the border to be moved and the sea to be banned. It was Xu He and Xiao Ming who were allowed to communicate with each other.
That kind of strategy is so low-minded that it is almost as good as declaring war on the whole world.
Then the person named Shan Ming Mu and Zhang Xiaoming stood up... Although I was an envoy to Ming Dynasty, I admired Xiao Ming's ideas.
I took the opportunity to gather together the men who sent the Ming Dynasty envoys, summoned the troops again, and called for the seventh fall!
At that time, Yamana Makuhari proposed eight small policies... The first was called the Abolition of the Sword Order, which meant the abolition of samurai and the establishment of soldiers mainly composed of farmers.
Seventh, it requires the abolition of feudal vassals and the establishment of counties, following the example of Xiao Ming, and establishing a country governed by civilian officials.
Eighth, I want to measure the land and equalize it thoroughly.
When those eight proposals were announced, the entire Japanese country immediately became excited and could no longer hold back.
These ideas are the same as those of the envoys sent to the Ming Dynasty later. Those eight points are obviously more targeted. The mountain name Makuhari has indeed learned the essence of Xiao Ming.
Eradicate the samurai group and eradicate the nicknames of local princes!
Granting land to special people, gaining people's support, and forming an armed force with little combat effectiveness...Then the Japanese nation retreated into a new stage.
The common people in the southwest, the remaining Ming envoys, and even Zhang Ziming's advisers were gathered under the command of the mountain name Mu Zhang and launched a counterattack.
That time was not a complete battle of life and death. Is there anything to say about it?
The war in Japan has entered its most brutal stage... Hong Cheng's side even rejected everything Xiao Ming did, even hiding books privately, which was a capital offense.
On the Yamana side, local nicknames were completely eradicated, samurai weapons were confiscated, and all the saved salaries were used to support the army.
It is also worth mentioning that in order to raise military expenses, the mountain name Mu Zhang even raided the temple property and turned these lowly and despicable people into slaves, using us as coolies, carrying food, and building forts.
During this period, countless people were beaten to death and died from exhaustion.
With this ending, the war in Japan retreated into its most brutal stage.
The two sides gave in to each other, and several times, Yamana Mu Zhang's side was almost killed. Fortunately, we can always get weapon support and can always mobilize fewer troops. Relying on the huge numerical advantage,
Fill up the battle line and defeat the samurai force led by Lan Yu.
And as time went by, fewer and fewer Venezuelan people were mobilized, and we went into the battle with a small amount of support for Yamana Mu Zhang.
But the problem also arises there. Due to the lack of restraint on the common people on the Japanese side, those Japanese people, with great and small hatred, just killed Japanese warriors and nobles. They all were killed.
.
We even turned on the massacre mode, and a small number of citizens were beheaded.
All the Japanese people had their inner evil spirits brought out.
"Sir, if it weren't for him, would Xiao Ming be like that?"
Hong Chengjin sighed.
Zhu Yuanzhang blinked and said with a smile: "Yes...Xiao Ming and Japan are still the same. After all, Jing can still use Confucian education!"
"Confucianism? Enlightenment?"
When Lao Zhu heard that, his face immediately turned pale.
If we really adhere to Confucian education, how can we get a new situation in China?
Over time, it is certain that Xiao Ming Dynasty will repeat the mistakes of Zhao and Song Dynasties. If this is the case, it will be happier than killing me!
The appearance of Zhu Yuanzhang, my various suggestions and efforts, really changed the Xiao Ming Dynasty.
It's better to know than to compare, and it's shocking to compare.
The hero is always missing, and Mr. Zhang is even worse!
Both sides of the Japanese kingdom fell into a frenzied killing spree, and Yamaname Mu Zhang's Eight Orders were also implemented. I tried to change my ways and make peace with the old forces.
As a result, he was assassinated in a temple, and a meteor streaked across the sky of Japan...
"My lord, the old Zhang Ximeng has not written a letter in tears. I am unable to govern the Japanese country. I only ask for mercy from the country and send troops as soon as possible to help the Japanese country to stop the chaos. Previously, the Japanese country was willing to merge with Xiaoming!
