Nowadays, there is a special branch in the Ming Dynasty's army, which is the staff system, and the staff has been equipped to the squad... As a military hobby in time travel, Zhu Qizhen took it for granted that this has gradually transformed into
The mature thermal weapon army of the Ming Dynasty made new changes and formations.
Naturally, all of this was first attempted by Zhu Qizhen in the emperor's personal army, which was later called the Imperial Guard. Although the army structure of later generations was not completely copied, a large number of imitations and improvements were made.
The battalion is the most important basic tactical unit of the Ming Dynasty. Nowadays, when troops are dispatched to fight, the battalion is used as a dispatch unit. Some time ago, in the Liaodong region to suppress the alien rebellion, a total of five battalions were dispatched, and finally six thousand soldiers were defeated.
foreign soldiers and captured nearly 2,000 people.
And this is probably the largest war that has occurred within the territory of the Ming Empire in the past two years. The five battalions only have 2,500 people, including a baggage battalion and an artillery battalion.
However, the equipment and strength of the Ming Dynasty army, which has now completed the re-equipment and reorganization, are far inferior to the huge or even huge scale of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of troops in the past.
Although there are not many troops mobilized and used, these soldiers have been trained and reorganized over ten years to form a reasonable and qualified professional military system. Every one of these soldiers is definitely among the elite.
Elite.
In addition, in order to improve the combat capabilities of soldiers, Zhu Qizhen listed the Ming Dynasty's Weapons Research Institute and the Shipbuilding Research Institute as key units. The investment of a large amount of funds enabled the amazing creativity of the Ming Dynasty's skilled craftsmen.
And innovation ability, coupled with the guidance of Zhu Qizhen, a time traveler from the future, the crystallization of wisdom that surpasses previous generations and even surpasses this era by five or six hundred years.
This makes Ming's ships, weapons and other aspects at the forefront of the world. Well, it was already very cutting-edge, but now it is even more cutting-edge. Today, Ming's Weapons Research Institute is already studying what His Majesty the Emperor calls
Artillery shells with cartridge cases.
In fact, that is what Ming Dynasty will call the Fran machine gun in the future. However, if such artillery shells are really used, the reloading time of the artillery will be weakened to an extremely short level, compared with the old artillery.
Compared with other guns, their firing range can even reach twice or even three times that of old-fashioned artillery.
Such a rate of fire will completely engulf the enemy in a sea of fire with the indiscriminate bombing tactics of our Ming artillery troops.
Although it is still in trial production, Shi Heng is very convinced that in the near future, the Ming Dynasty's artillery will become a nightmare for the entire world. But now, the Ming Dynasty's artillery and muskets have become a nightmare for the entire Ming Dynasty.
A nightmare for all countries in the region.
------------Of course, these are all countries that dare to disrespect the Ming Dynasty or have evil intentions. In the face of the powerful methods of His Majesty, the iron-fisted emperor of the Ming Empire,
, all those alien races with evil intentions have been buried in the dust of history.
Under the influence of Zhu Qizhen, the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty were no longer just thinking about how to fight for power and profit all day long, just to compete for a little bit of petty profit in the court.
Although they are above the court, their blood-thirsty eyes are like a pack of hungry wolves, eyeing the surroundings of the Ming Dynasty, or in other words, in Zhu Qizhen, the absolute utilitarian emperor.
Under the influence of red, the effect of red when near vermilion and black when near ink has emerged.
Although they will still be dissatisfied with Zhu Qizhen's external wars and write letters of criticism all day long, they will always be counterattacked sharply by Zhu Qizhen, and use facts and interests again and again.
It proves how wise and powerful his decision as the Emperor of Tomorrow is.
Since he was ten years old, Zhu Jianshen, who has attended and listened to every morning court with Zhu Qizhen, has benefited a lot. It is through this method of precepts and deeds that Zhu Qizhen has made Zhu Jianshen understand that his father is the emperor of tomorrow.
ambitions and ideas.
Let him understand that what the Ming Dynasty needs is a wise and powerful emperor, not a benevolent emperor who always gives in before his ministers and does nothing, allowing these ministers to jump up and down, and does not do anything serious all day long but only fights for power and profit.
Under the influence of Zhu Qizhen's ears and eyes, Zhu Jianshen, a young prince who is only thirteen or fourteen years old, is maturing and growing rapidly. Moreover, in the academy, or what is called the Ming Dynasty Capital University, Zhu Jianshen is
A prince once studied here incognito for nearly five years.
When he graduated with honors, Zhu Qizhen, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, personally attended his son's graduation ceremony and announced that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty would attend the graduation ceremony of the Capital University Hall every year.
And delivered a speech to these enthusiastic and young students.
The Capital University was the original Imperial College of the Ming Dynasty, but after discussions between Zhu Qizhen and the ministers, it was finally decided to establish a comprehensive college with all disciplines.
Not only did it include those subjects in the past, but it also added many subjects that scholars in the Ming Dynasty had never heard of. For example, a separate military academy was set up, which was divided into several departments, including staff, navy, artillery, infantry and other subjects.
People point their fingers.
Although this college has only been established for less than six years, it has already supplied more than 10,000 talents to the Ming Empire. Although some scholars and scholars still expressed strong dissatisfaction and indignation about this, the scholars
Compared with Zhu Qizhen, the Ming Emperor, this is not a heavyweight contest at all.
Even though some officials were still waving flags and cheering for them, in the end, under Zhu Qizhen's iron fist and powerful will, they could only give in, or just hold the book and complain on their own.
Today, the changes in the Ming Dynasty can be described as earth-shaking. In the history of China, or in other words, since there was a country, the first law specifically aimed at industry and commerce is already being revised, and the original Jinyiwei system of the Ming Dynasty has become another important
Responsible Department: Independent Commission Against Corruption. Its role is, of course, to specifically address corruption issues among officials.
As for the Yushitai, it has changed from an organization that used to talk all day long to build up its reputation. Well, it is a bit exaggerated, but there is indeed a considerable number of censors who do this. From such a function, it has transformed into a department that specializes in targeting illegal officials.
, or an institution similar to the prosecutors of later generations, and those censors should all be called prosecutors or reading prosecutors.
At least Dali Temple has completely become the country's judicial center, the highest court of the Ming Empire.
The original factory guard has become the National Security Bureau, which is responsible for the collection and summary of various domestic and foreign intelligence, including military intelligence.
The Criminal Department has become the police system, specializing in detection, arrest, detention and other matters.
As for the original six ministers, they have become ten. The original functions have been divided separately. For example, the Ministry of Industry was split into the Ministry of Communications and the Ministry of Construction, and the Ministry of Justice was split into the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Justice.
The Ministry of Household Affairs was split into the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the Ministry of Rites was split into the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs... In short, a series of changes have been vigorously launched in this decade.
Shi Heng saw with his own eyes the impact of this series of changes in the capital. Although he really didn't understand why Zhu Qizhen had so many new ideas and thoughts, facts have proven time and time again
, Zhu Qizhen’s vision is so far-sighted, and his decision-making is so wise.
In a word, Shi Heng could only sigh. It seems that in the hundreds of years since the founding of the Ming Empire, the changes in these ten years have been dizzying. However, it has also allowed people to see that the Ming Dynasty is reborn, as if it is moving towards a new era.
s future.
The original emperor could only see the Central Plains. Chengri was immersed in the dream of being the only one in the world, or the dream of conquering the world with his benevolence.
But Zhu Qizhen, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, seemed to be always awake. His eyes could even see the end of the ocean. The reason why the Ming Dynasty's ocean-going fleet was able to discover that outrageously vast continent was precisely because of Zhu Qizhen.
Under Qi Zhen’s insistence.
Likewise, the discovery and exploration of islands and continents brought countless wealth and land to the Ming Dynasty. Now, many of the original vassal countries, or those countries that dared to have ambitions towards the Ming Dynasty,
They were all trampled underfoot by the armies of the Ming Empire.
Zhu Qizhen’s clear words are still deeply remembered by Shi Heng. What is truth? Truth is the range covered by Ming’s artillery. Within this range, what I, Ming, say and do are all
truth.
Naked declarations of hegemonism were not welcomed by those civil servants who were well-educated in poetry and literature, but they were very popular among the generals, soldiers, and even many ordinary people of the Ming Dynasty.
And Ming Dynasty has proven this sentence to be so true through practice time and time again.
And just three months ago, in the Northern Dynasty of Japan, a few thugs, or wandering samurai, ransacked a gold store owned by a Ming merchant and killed seven shopkeepers in the store, and two of them were
They are the people of Ming Dynasty.
But when the factory guard discovered that these wandering warriors were subordinates of the general's family, he was jealous of the wealth in the gold shop, so he carried out a masked robbery.
When Zhu Qizhen learned of the news, he immediately issued an order. Subsequently, all members of the Toyo Fleet and the Toyo Fleet Marine Regiment were dispatched to retaliate against the coastal cities in the entire northern part of the island that were nominally controlled by the Northern Emperor but actually controlled by the shogunate.
attack.
In just three months, the coastal city-states in the northern part of Wajima were almost in ruins. The shogun Ashikaga Yoshimasa, who had been tough at first, and the heavyweights of the shogunate group Tayama Mochikuni and Hosokawa Katsumoto were all panicked.
.
Today, Shi Heng went to Wajima Island as Zhu Qizhen's special envoy to conduct final negotiations with the Muromachi shogunate, which had already caused pain to Ming Dynasty.
Anousin, this inconspicuous port city, has become the focus of the entire Japanese island at this moment. Everyone is guessing what kind of conditions the Ming Dynasty will put forward, and whether the Muromachi shogunate is willing to become like that
A puppet like the Emperor of the Southern Dynasties.
As the leaders of the shogunate, Tayama Mochikuni and Hosokawa Katsumoto were sitting on the floor, watching the actresses wearing wide sleeves and dancing softly to the music, and the waka that seemed so beautiful and beautiful in the past
, but now I hear it so nonsense.
Shi Heng, on the other hand, looked at the exotic singing and dancing with some interest. Although it was a bit unpleasant, Shi Heng was in a very good mood and did not care about these details.
When the song ended and everyone dispersed, Shi Hengzheng came over, looked at the two powerful officials of the shogunate and said: "You two, the banquet is over. Now, the time before the final appointment is getting shorter and shorter. I don't know.
How are you thinking about it?"
"Angel of Heaven, are these conditions too harsh?" The aged Tianshan Chiguo shook his head and bowed deeply and respectfully to Shi Heng before saying. There was only pleading and helplessness in his words.
The terrifying combat power of the Ming Empire's army, as well as the outrageously powerful fleet, had shattered the last hope of the Muromachi Shogunate and the Northern Dynasty. If the Ming Empire's army had not taken the initiative to stop in the Omi area, at this moment
, maybe the Muromachi shogunate and even areas like Mino and Shinano will fall.
"Harsh?" Shi Heng couldn't help raising his eyebrows and asked: "When you Japanese killed our people in Ming Dynasty, did you ever consider the consequences? When our people asked you to arrest the murderer, what did you do?"
"Do you think that the Ming Dynasty is indifferent to the lives of its own people? Now, after the Ming Dynasty's troops came to the city, did you think of the word harsh? I tell you that this treaty was made by His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
Hand, word for word, can never be changed."
"With such conditions, doesn't the Ming Dynasty fear that all the vassals in the world will fear it?" Hosokawa Katsumoto took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "The Ming Dynasty has always shown its benevolence and righteousness to the world, but now, it is pressing harder and harder. In the future, many people in the world will
How should a vassal state behave?"
Hearing these implicitly threatening words, Shi Heng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and laugh. The hearty laughter echoed in the hall, but the two important Japanese ministers could only keep their expressions gloomy.
"You should make one thing clear, that is, the Ming Dynasty today is not the Ming Dynasty in the past." Shi Heng's eyes were like lightning, scanning the two important Japanese officials. "My Ming Dynasty shows its benevolence and righteousness. First, the vassals must
You regard me, the Ming Dynasty, as your sect master, and the people of my Ming Dynasty as your honored guests, and you are willing to obey the will of my Ming Dynasty..."
"And you, a small country, kill my people of the Ming Dynasty without permission, and then try to cover it up. At that time, where will the master of my Ming Dynasty be placed?!"
"Today, I have been ordered to send an envoy to your country. My Majesty, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, once said that if anyone does not obey, his country will be destroyed."
After hearing the last sentence, both Hosokawa Katsumoto and Nadayama Mokuni couldn't help but trembled, with frightened expressions on their faces. People at home and abroad have heard about the temper of this great emperor, and they all know very well that His Majesty the Emperor
He has never changed his words, and he will definitely do what he wants to do.
This is simply a naked threat, but today's Japanese country has no room for bargaining.
Yamada Mochikuni sat down on the floor, his face full of despair, and Hosokawa Katsumoto was not much better, bowing deeply to Shi Heng: "Please wait for a moment, the angel of the kingdom, I need to report to the Lord of the Kingdom."
Can……"
Looking at these two frustrated Japanese ministers, Shi Heng smiled and nodded: "Go ahead and tell me the exact words of His Majesty the Ming Emperor. You know, my Ming Dynasty has hundreds of thousands of troops and four huge fleets."
, I am worried that I have no place to make contributions."
In the end, the Muromachi shogunate and the Northern Dynasty could only sign this humiliating treaty, recognizing the Southern Dynasty emperor's ownership and control of all land west of Omi.
As for the Emperor of the Southern Dynasties, Hatakeyama Yoshinori, who had completely surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, joined forces with the Ming Dynasty to completely sideline him. And after the emperor died of illness two years later, there was no longer an emperor but a governor sent by the Ming Dynasty to manage the country.
this area.
And this treaty, which later generations called the "Seventeen Articles of the Annon Code", turned into a pile of waste paper twenty years later. Feeling that the time had come, the Ming Dynasty found a new excuse to move the Muromachi Shogunate
Together with the Emperor of the Northern Dynasties, they were dealt with. However, the Emperor of the Southern Dynasties was wise enough to serve the whole country and belong to the Ming Dynasty.
Most of the people on the Japanese islands became the pioneers of the Ming Dynasty's world of exploration, and with their blood and sweat, they wrote an important chapter in the Ming Dynasty's hegemony.
-------In the Forbidden City, in the huge Fengtian Hall, Zhu Qizhen looked listlessly at those who walked in timidly from outside.
Many envoys from the vassal states of the Ming Dynasty in the palace, and even the heads of some vassal states were also present in person.
Then they worshiped Zhu Qizhen with great piety to express the admiration of the vassal states of the Ming Dynasty for Zhu Qizhen, the supreme emperor of the Ming Empire.
After that, the certificates of credence were handed over to the officials of the Ministry of Rites. Then they were presented to Zhu Qizhen's desk, and his hands gently stroked these certificates of credence. It was not so much a certificate of credence as a certificate of credence.
an important business contract.
In other words, with these credentials in hand, Ming Dynasty has all the most important mineral resources in these vassal countries in its hands.
After forty years, Zhu Qizhen, who is still strong and as strong as an ox, stands proudly, looking around, and his loud voice echoes in the hall like a big bell. "You can have such a heart, I sincerely hope
I am very relieved to think that my Ming Dynasty and the various vassals are all in the same boat. Since ancient times, the vassals have had many contacts with my Ming Dynasty. Now, for the sake of the vassals, I, the Ming Dynasty, are willing to use our hands to help your country and let you
You can break away from the era of drinking hair and blood, so that your people can use exquisite porcelain, drink the most delicious wine, and wear unparalleled silk..."
"All of this is the reward for your willingness to surrender to me, Ming Dynasty. My Ming Dynasty's swords and guns will only be aimed at enemies, not at Ming Dynasty's friends..."
Zhu Qizhen used his vivid body language and passionate tone to arouse the emotions of the envoys and kings of the vassal countries. Only the civil and military ministers of the Ming Dynasty also expressed eagerness, but in fact
Their hearts are already very numb.
Every time, Zhu Qizhen, the emperor of Ming Dynasty, always said his words more beautifully than he sang them, but in the end, he fulfilled them, well... after all, he was our wise and powerful emperor of Ming Dynasty, so I won't say bad things.
Moreover, it is impossible to count the changes and benefits he brought to the Ming Dynasty on one's fingers and toes.
In the end, the envoys and kings of these vassal countries left the Fengtian Palace with satisfaction. What they took away was only the promise of the Ming Emperor Zhu Qizhen. And in the future, they will not only have to pay
The property of the country, and even the people and land of the entire country.
Although those ministers were a little numb, they were still very pleased that Zhu Qizhen had deceived Kaizi again. This meant that Ming Dynasty could obtain new goods dumping places and raw material collection places. In the near future, Ming Dynasty will
A new immigration point was obtained.
"Okay, it's not too early today. The court is over. By the way, tomorrow is the day of rest. Everyone should have a good rest. However, if there is news from the north, remember to tell me as soon as possible." Zhu Qizhen handled it.
After finishing the matter, he quickly patted his butt and left the court. Zhu Jianshen, who had been standing aside to listen to Zhu Qizhen's eloquent words, quickly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and caught up with his father's flying footsteps.
"Did you see everything clearly? Did you hear everything clearly?" Zhu Qizhen asked with a smile on his face when he saw his tall and strong son.
"Well, my father and I have heard it clearly. You can say whatever you like, but in terms of actual interests, you must not let go." Zhu Jianshen, who looked honest and upright, said seriously.
"Well... Confucians can be taught." Zhu Qizhen laughed. Over the years, Zhu Jianshen's growth has already reached the goal he expected, and even exceeded it. Under his own teaching, he will no longer
He was the kind and weak emperor in history.
He will definitely be able to inherit his will and make Ming Dynasty completely at the top of the world. Zhu Qizhen sighed with relief. "Well, in political affairs, any means can be used, as long as
Whatever is beneficial to my Ming Dynasty, I must firmly grasp it, but when it comes to my family, I am not allowed to have any ill intentions. Do you understand?"
"Father, please rest assured. I understand that if the family cannot maintain harmony, then it will be like those emperors in the past, and they will really become lonely." Zhu Jianshen nodded vigorously and said.
"That's very good. Well, during this period of time, you can take a breather on government affairs and get closer to your newly married princess. Your father and I want to have fun with our grandson." Zhu Qi
Zhen patted Zhu Jianshen on the shoulder and showed a weird smile.
"Ah... this, my son..." Although father and son have been together for more than twenty years, Zhu Jianshen sometimes still cannot accept his father's inspiring changes in thinking.
"Anyway, just know it in your heart. Alas, I don't know how your third brother is doing now. Has that little guy reached Moscow now?" Zhu Qizhen continued to walk forward, and the seaside villa was already close.
In front of his eyes, he saw the children playing outside the villa, his wife and concubines, and the mother sitting on a chair smiling and telling stories to the youngest child. Zhu Qizhen's heart was filled with boundless warmth.
I have completely forgotten the time and space I have lived in for nearly thirty years. My past and my future are all living in this era, and all of this is a great era created by my own hands. My
