Chapter 1926 Zhang Yi proposes marriage to Zhu Yuanzhang
Speaking of which, Nanman is really a treasure land. Although the geographical conditions of Nanman during this period were extremely harsh, it was extremely unfriendly to the Central Plains people.
However, this place is indeed rich in various resources!
Who would have thought that facing the Central Plains' largest weapon cavalry on the grassland, we could actually find creatures that could restrain them to a certain extent in this place.
Of course, although elephants do have an advantage over war horses, they only have an advantage to a certain extent!
Even if the Nanman plunder is completed, how many elephants can they plunder? Even if they plunder the whole world, how many elephants can they plunder, but how many war horses are there on the grassland?
War elephants can be used as a surprise force, but they cannot become the main force!
After thinking about the elephant soldiers, Li Xiang really wanted to scold them in front of the Kushan Empire. This group of scammers exposed the war elephants early.
If they had not exposed the war elephants, Yuan Meng would still not know about the existence of the elephant soldiers when Li Xiang fought against the grassland in the future. If this card was played then, it would be called real cheating to a certain extent.
Although there are many talents on the grassland, if they have not seen the war elephant beforehand, they cannot find the weakness of the war elephant in one or two attempts. But when they discover the weakness of the war elephant,
, who knows how far that battle has gone at that time!
……………………
Yangzhou.
The economic center began to move from the north to the south. It should be the period of the Wu Hu Luan Hua. This incident is inseparable from the Wu Hu Luan Hua.
Even though Soochow during the Three Kingdoms period was held back by Jiangdong families, before the economic center of gravity was hard to shift, those families in the south could only be described in a few words. After all, during this period, not to mention that it was completely difficult to complete the economic center, and even
The first southward migration did not begin.
Therefore, the loyalty of the Jiangdong family to Zhu Yuanzhang is actually limited!
Of course, the Jiangdong family's loyalty to Zhu Yuanzhang is guaranteed. After all, the reason why the Jiangdong family is called the Jiangdong family is because they are within Jiangdong.
In other words, Zhu Yuanzhang, including his fourth son, the father and son were originally monarchs with extremely ruthless personalities. The ruthlessness of these two generations of father and son monarchs, not to mention ranking at the top among all emperors, was still so ruthless after all.
There are many famous tyrants, but at least they are among the first batch.
At least, Zhu Yuanzhang never thought about it, especially after knowing the purpose of Zhang Yi's mission. Because when the purpose of Zhang Yi's mission came out, many civil and military officials under him began to become restless.
Although the Battle of Zhengnan has not yet started, it seems that it will be a few years later, but the small moves in the dark have already laid the groundwork at this time. From this time, Li Xiang has begun to do everything possible to improve them.
The odds of winning.
Just like Cao Cao, everyone formed an in-law relationship, and the civil and military officials under him stepped up at the critical moment, and finally came to Li Xiang in large numbers in the name of Cao Cao.
The two countries are at war, don't kill the envoy!
Since Zhang Yi was on behalf of the Jin Dynasty as an envoy to Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang had to entertain him with delicious food and drinks!
Besides, Zhang Yi's mission was widely spread, and many people knew about it. It would be really not worth it for Zhu Yuanzhang to take action at this time!
As for beheading envoys, there are not many people in history who have done such an unscrupulous thing. All in all, they are only a small minority.
However, we have to admit that Zhu Yuanzhang's early fortune was based on the blood of the Jiangdong family. Even though he was born in the Jiangdong family, he was still extremely ruthless when making moves, without any scruples.
Zhang Yi entered Yangzhou along the river under the protection of thousands of soldiers and horses. Of course, these thousands of soldiers and horses were not soldiers and horses of the Jin army, but soldiers and horses of Zhu Yuanzhang.
When Zhu Yuanzhang was at his peak, the loyal ministers of these Jiangdong families were naturally guaranteed, but one day in the future, when the Jin army invaded the country and Zhu Yuanzhang was in danger, it was not certain how these Jiangdong families would behave!
As for the Jiangdong family, whose sphere of influence is simply within Zhu Yuanzhang's territory, even if they change their choice, there is no possibility. At most, they will just line up one or two of their children to go out.
Songtsen Gampo sent Ludongzan to propose marriage to the Jin Dynasty, while Li Xiang sent Zhang Yi to propose marriage to Zhu Yuanzhang.
The first thing Zhang Yi did after arriving in Yangzhou was to visit the wealthy families in Yangzhou!
These aristocratic families in Yangzhou are said to be aristocratic families, but compared with those aristocratic families in the Central Plains, they pale into insignificance. Even some of the top aristocratic families in the Central Plains do not recognize these people in Yangzhou as aristocratic families at all.
Instead, they regard him as a powerful person, or at best a nouveau riche.
If the ancients wanted to take refuge with a monarch, of course, some people would choose a wise monarch to take refuge with them. But most of them would choose a monarch from the same country to take refuge with them, or choose their local princes.
If there is no such a reason to convince himself, he may really risk his life and refuse to give in! But it is very likely that if there is such a trivial reason, he will convince himself and force himself to give himself a reason.
A way out.
Why ask for marriage?
And if he and Zhu Yuanzhang were also related here, it is very likely that some generals who should have resisted desperately, although it is absolutely impossible not to resist when facing the Jin army, it is impossible to continue to risk their lives like that.
With such a step, some generals may choose to surrender when they should not surrender when faced with a desperate situation. After all, Li Xiang's original identity should be Zhu Yuanzhang's enemy, but if the marriage is successful, Li Xiang will become Zhu Yuanzhang
uncle!
Man! Sometimes the only difference is a step or a reason to convince yourself!
Without him, it was just to break down the resistance of Zhu and Wu forces!
Seeking marriage, yes, the purpose of Zhang Yi’s mission this time was to seek marriage!
Moreover, if the marriage is successful, these Jiangdong aristocratic families will definitely be the best at following the steps.
There are also those who are brave and loyal among the children of aristocratic families, and there are always many such people who are willing to sacrifice their lives and blood for the monarch they choose, even if they escape death without regrets.
But for more children of aristocratic families, especially those in power within aristocratic families, who are similar to patriarchs, their first priority is always the survival of the family.
