Gu Qingling took the map again, revealing a larger map with various question marks on it.
She pointed to the map of the Ming Dynasty and told everyone what countries were currently known in the four steering wheels of the Ming Dynasty, which countries had wars with the Ming Dynasty, and what agreements they had signed.
Which agreements are for the other party to take advantage of, and which agreements are for Ming to take advantage of.
"Regardless of any war, there is only one reason for it, and that is - interests." Gu Qingling summarized these wars.
She said that maybe her summary or planning was not complete enough, but one thing is certain, that is, when the war is profitable, they will launch an "aggressive war" and use force against the Ming Dynasty.
If Ming wants to protect itself, there is only one way - that is, it is powerful enough, so powerful that no one dares to invade it.
"You have always been wondering why I took such a big risk to teach you this lesson, right? I am just a woman, an old woman, why should I teach you this lesson?" Gu Qingling's face gradually became serious,
"There is a saying that every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. This common man should not only include men who cannot read a single Chinese character, but should include everyone in the Ming Dynasty, men, women, old people, and children. Because once the Ming Dynasty is affected by it
The country invaded, and those who were harmed were all the people in Ming Dynasty, including the elderly, children, men, and women."
"This kind of injury has nothing to do with gender or age."
"As long as you are a Ming Dynasty person, you definitely don't want this kind of thing to happen."
"And as the princes and grandsons of the princes and the role models for all people in the world, you should shoulder the responsibility of protecting the Ming Dynasty and strengthening the Ming Dynasty."
"You are the princes and grandsons. You are born with the glory and wealth that ordinary people can only achieve after a lifetime of hard work. You have too many advantages. You are the ones standing at the top of the pyramid, so you are the only one who can take the lead and do all this well.
, the talents below will follow behind you, and together we will contribute to the prosperity and protection of the Ming Dynasty."
…
Following Gu Qingling's words, the princes present and even the twenty-second prince Li Zheng were stunned for a moment, feeling a strange feeling in their hearts.
It was as if they were no longer separate individuals, but "part of" tied to Ming Dynasty.
Every move they make will affect the fate of Ming Dynasty.
"Finally, you should see that there are many question marks on my map, right?" Gu Qingling's tone gradually became more relaxed, and she pointed at the question marks, "What are these question marks? This question mark represents the unknown."
"What is the unknown? It is an opportunity, but it may also be a crisis."
"Know the enemy and yourself, and you will not be in danger in a hundred battles; if you do not know the enemy but know yourself, you will win and lose every time; if you do not know the enemy and yourself, you will be in danger in every battle."
"We don't know what is further away. Maybe it is a larger continent, maybe there is a more powerful country there."
"You just have to imagine how terrible it will be when this unknown place has a country far richer and more powerful than the Ming Dynasty. When they discover the Ming Dynasty one day but the Ming Dynasty does not discover them."
"They are powerful and rich, but we are only 'rich' but not 'powerful' enough, at least not 'powerful' enough to deter them. So what will Ming Dynasty face?"
"Back to the reason why the war just started - interests. If they find that Ming Dynasty has something they don't have, they can have such things as long as they launch a war, and Ming Dynasty does not have enough force to drive out their group of invaders...
…”
"Perhaps I will be gone by then, but what about you? Where are your descendants?"
"How can we allow others to snore on the side of the bed? Do you really think that if there really is such a powerful 'imaginary enemy', the Ming Dynasty will really be able to remain peaceful in the future?"
…
Such words were simply an offense to Emperor Mingguang.
What he said before was already a bit out of line. For Li Wenchong's sake, he allowed her to let her go for a while. But if she was so aggressive, didn't she take him seriously?!
Could it be that in her eyes, he, the emperor, was so fatuous and the Ming Dynasty under his rule was just a paper tiger that could be slaughtered?!
Emperor Mingguang was about to get angry when the twenty-second prince Li Zheng stood up angrily: "Grandma Huang, are you going too far? In your eyes, the Ming Dynasty under the rule of your father is so useless.
Can any country be invaded?"
Gu Qingling looked calm: "I'm not talking about the present Ming Dynasty, but the future. The future has not come yet, and there are still so many undiscovered and unconfirmed places on the map. How can you be sure that there will not be such an 'imaginary enemy' in the future?"
Appear? If it does, what do you think Ming can use to deal with it?"
"Of course it is the Ming Dynasty's Iron Armored Army. Our Ming Dynasty's Iron Armored Army is an extraordinary hero and is invincible."
"Really? Then let me ask you, in the year 219 of the Ming Dynasty, who fought with the Huns in the north, who would win and who would lose?"
Slap in the face!
A naked slap in the face!
Who doesn’t know that the Ming Dynasty was defeated miserably in that battle?
Emperor Mingguang's anger rose instantly.
The twenty-second prince Li Zheng once again spoke before Emperor Mingguang. He banged the table: "Auntie Huang, are you a spy sent by the enemy? This picture will enhance the enemy's prestige and destroy your own ambition?!"
"
"Facts are facts, why can't people say it?" The expression on Gu Qingling's face turned cold instantly, and her tone became solemn, "Even now, the Huns are still showing up in the north. You dare to say that after so many years, there will be no
I didn't see the Ming Dynasty's Iron Armored Army destroying them. Every year in winter, the Huns cavalry still invaded the northern border, causing the people of the Ming Dynasty to suffer. How dare you say that the Ming Dynasty's Iron Armored Army was 'invincible'? Confidence is good, but to the point of being too confident
Ming Dynasty ignores its own shortcomings, keeps boasting about how powerful it is, ignores the development of other countries, and even forgets Sun Tzu's Art of War, 'Know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles'. Do you really think that such a Ming Dynasty can be infallible?"
"enough!"
This time, Emperor Mingguang couldn't bear it anymore. He shouted softly, which shocked the entire classroom and changed their expressions.
When the princes and grandsons heard this familiar voice, they almost had a heart attack from fright, and they quickly knelt down one by one to apologize.
Even Li Wenchong also knelt down: "Your Majesty, forgive me. Princess Chong didn't mean it. She was just talking and was hot-headed. Please forgive Princess Chong for so many years of hard work. Please forgive her this time..."
Gu Qingling sighed inwardly, and knelt down to apologize: "Your Majesty, forgive me, it's all my fault, and please don't blame Prince Chong. I just said what I said today, from the bottom of my heart. I am the Ming Dynasty."
People are afraid that the Ming Dynasty will be proud and complacent, forgetting Sun Tzu's Art of War, and forgetting the four words that a proud soldier will be defeated."
In a rage, Emperor Mingguang released a powerful aura that almost made everyone present breathless.
All the princes and grandsons did not expect that they would meet Emperor Mingguang after listening to a class?!
Forget it, it happened to be the time when Princess Chong was "rebellious". Wouldn't this bring disaster to Chi Yu?
Also, at this time, Princess Chong should not "add fuel to the fire" anymore, right?
Didn't she see that Emperor Mingguang was so angry? If she continued, did she want everyone to be buried with him?
