Chapter 154: Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty conquered most of the capital and ruled the world!
"Sir, my lord, I'm sorry, there is no way to repair the Hangzhou over there. The leakage has filled all the water tanks." A navy general under Hu Dahai rushed over and said to him.
The Hangzhou battleship is the latest three-dimensional rapid capsizing ship of the Ming Dynasty. It has several watertight compartments. However, due to a collision with other ships in the storm yesterday, a large hole was broken in the hull of the Hangzhou battleship.
In the midst of this raging storm, I finally couldn't hold on any longer.
"Hurry up and get out the rope. All the brothers on the Hangzhou will be on board." Hu Dahai ordered without hesitation.
No matter what time it was, Hu Dahai always kept in mind the teachings of His Royal Highness Zhu Han, King of England, that for the navy, neither warships nor artillery were as important as naval soldiers.
At this critical moment, Hu Dahai must make a decision to protect people but not the ship.
The rest of the Ming Navy soldiers also took action immediately and sent out evacuation signals to their colleagues on the Hangzhou.
"Why haven't you withdraw yet?"
Hu Dahai saw that after the signal was sent, the Hangzhou still did not start to evacuate, and he was already angry.
"It must be Commander Hu who doesn't want to abandon the ship!" a navy general said next to him.
The battleship commander of the Hangzhou was none other than Hu Guan, the son of Hu Dahai.
Hu Guangzhu was in the navy of the Ming Dynasty. Although he was very young, because of his outstanding talents, he was promoted by Zhu Han to the command of the battleship Hangzhou.
"This bastard bastard!" Hu Dahai was furious.
Although the storm on the sea has become smaller now, there are still dark clouds covering the sky. A bigger storm may be coming soon, and paying attention to such a delay in waiting for the storm, while riding, the battleship after Hangzhou is very, very powerful.
It may disintegrate in the storm, and by that time it will be impossible for the soldiers who fell into the water to escape.
At this time, a signal came from the battleship Hangzhou, and they asked Hu Dahai how to deal with the horses on the ship.
There are more than a hundred ponies on the battleship Hangzhou, which were originally used by the Haidong Protectorate to prepare for future horse training.
These more than one hundred fine ponies are priced at a high price.
Even an ordinary cavalry camp may not have a hundred ponies.
But now that the situation is so critical, Hu Zhan is still thinking about Little Pony, not thinking about his own safety at all.
"Tell Hu to pay attention to this bastard, quickly abandon the ship and the foal, and just bring out all the brothers on the ship alive." Hu Dahai said sternly.
Finally, under Hu Dahai's stern orders, the commander of the battleship Hangzhou, Hu Jing, ordered the ship to be abandoned and led his men upstream from the sea to disperse on various ships.
Just after the fleet of Dongdonghu Mansion in the Ming Dynasty abandoned the battleship Hangzhou, a bigger storm came back.
Thick dark clouds covered the sea like black mountains.
A violent storm was raging on the sea, but in the distance a very bright circle appeared on the sea.
Hu Dahai once heard Zhu Han say that in a big storm at sea, there will be a safe area in the middle, and that area is called the eye of the storm.
In fact, this phenomenon of the eye of the storm is very familiar to many ancient Chinese fishermen. Once a big storm occurs at sea, the fishing boats can be safe and sound even if they are surrounded by strong winds and huge waves.
Cannot damage ships in the eye of the storm.
When Hu Dahai saw the eye of the storm appearing, he immediately made up his mind and moved the fleet towards the eye of the storm ahead.
They braved the strong wind and waves, and finally used the eye of the storm. After observing the wind direction, Hu Dahai issued another order, and the entire fleet moved with the storm.
Although we don’t know when this storm will end, we don’t know where it will drift.
But by following the eye of the storm, the fleet can always ensure its own safety.
As time passed by, Hu Dahai led the fleet to follow God's will and soon the charts in their hands could no longer guide them.
Hu Dahai looked at the boundless ocean, and felt a sense of helplessness in his heart that the road ahead was uncertain.
Outside the capital city.
One hundred thousand soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, lined up in neat ranks, made final preparations before entering the city outside the capital city.
Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty led a million-strong army in the Northern Expedition and marched with great success. After conquering Hejian Prefecture and Baoding Prefecture, he approached the capital city almost without a single blow.
Tens of thousands of righteous people in Dadu City rose up in arms and opened the city gates to welcome the Ming Dynasty King's army.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang never entered Dadu because he was waiting for Zhu Han to enter Dadu together and experience this historic moment together.
Now Zhu Han took a battleship and finally came to Hebei from Liaodong, joined Zhu Yuanzhang's Northern Expedition Army, and naturally came to the capital of Dadu together.
"Four hundred years! After four hundred years, our Han army finally came to Youzhou again!" Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the majestic city wall in front of him and couldn't help but sigh softly.
Ever since Jin Emperor Shi Jingtang ceded Youyun Sixteen Prefectures to the Liao Kingdom after the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, no Han government has been able to control Youzhou for more than four hundred years.
Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty personally visited the capital city and immediately made hundreds of thousands of people in the surrounding counties cheer for joy.
"Long live the Ming Dynasty!"
"His Majesty Emperor Zhu Longxing, long live, long live, long live!"
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
Amid the cheers of these people, Zhu Yuanzhang rode forward and waved to the crowd.
The Jin Yiwei who was guarding the side immediately followed up. Guo Ying, the deputy commander of the Jin Yiwei, said immediately.
"Your Majesty, you should be careful. This is the capital city. If there is an assassination by a Mongolian spy, it will be dangerous!"
As the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard, Guo Ying is mainly responsible for the emperor's safety, and all other important matters need to be put aside.
"The capital city is all my people. Even if there are Mongolian spies who want to assassinate them, these people will definitely kill them on the spot. We don't have to be afraid!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhu Yuanzhang looked at hundreds of thousands of people, cheering for joy, and his heart was filled with emotions. How could he let these people down?
Zhu Han looked at the scene in front of him and was very excited!
The army of the Ming Dynasty was able to enter the capital city without losing any blood and recover the Sixteen Youyun Provinces that had been lost for hundreds of years. This can be regarded as another significant mark in the history of Ming Dynasty.
When Zhu Han saw the cheering people, he immediately chased his horse and came to the side of his brother Zhu Yuanzhang and whispered.
"Brother, while the people are so enthusiastic now, why not announce what we have discussed now, so that the people can support the Ming Dynasty even more!"
Before the Ming Dynasty's army entered Dadu, Zhu Han and Zhu Yuanzhang had already discussed it and wanted to announce that the people of Dadu would be exempted from taxes for three years after they entered Dadu.
The entire capital city was already in dire straits under the plunder of the Mongols. Tax exemption would not only make the people more grateful to the Ming Dynasty, but also stimulate the rapid recovery and development of local people's livelihood.
"Okay, you're right!"
"Recovering most of the capital means that the Ming Dynasty has regained the Central Plains. The whole world should celebrate it!"
Brother Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile to Zhu Han.
Under the capital of Dadu, with everyone watching, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty issued an imperial edict on the spot, announcing that the people of Dadu and surrounding prefectures and counties would be exempted from taxes for three years.
Suddenly, most of the people were filled with tears of excitement, kneeling on the ground and shouting long live the Ming Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang.
Under the rule of the Mongols, let alone exempting the Han people from taxes, if they could collect less taxes during famine years, even if it was for disaster relief, it would be a great kindness if the whole family of the Han people was not killed.
.
As soon as the Ming Dynasty regained its capital, it immediately announced that the people would be exempted from taxes for three years.
Under such a strong contrast, the people of the capital city have completely submitted to the Ming Dynasty.
"The Ming Dynasty will last forever!"
"Your Majesty is a benevolent king, even to Yao and Shun!"
"The Ming Dynasty is brilliant, the sea is clear and the river is clear!"
…
Some literati who had read the book immediately expressed emotion in the crowd, causing the common people to follow suit and began to loudly praise the Ming Dynasty.
Amidst the cheers and reverence of the crowd, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Han at least entered the capital city together.
It has to be said that after more than a hundred years of management and construction by the Mongols, the capital city has far exceeded the scale of the previous thousands of years, and the various streets and buildings are also extremely beautifully built.
"This is all due to the wealth of the people!" Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the bustling and gorgeous streets, but there was no trace of happiness in his heart. Instead, he felt infinite sympathy.
"Take from the people and give back to the people. From now on, the capital city will belong to our Ming Dynasty, and Han people all over the world can come here to enjoy the prosperity here, and it will no longer be the privilege of the Mongols!" Zhu Han said next to him.
During the period of Mongolian rule, the prosperity of the capital city belonged to the Mongolian privileged class. It was almost impossible for ordinary Han people to gain a foothold in the capital city.
Not to mention the problem of high housing prices in capital cities of all dynasties since ancient times, just because the Mongols can dispose of the lives and property of Han people at will, it is impossible for ordinary Han people to have a foothold in the capital city.
Therefore, the lives of the Han people in the entire metropolis are actually very difficult.
Now the Ming Dynasty has regained most of the capital.
Naturally, the Han people in the city were not allowed to live a life of hunger and cold.
Under the protection of thousands of royal guards, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Han entered the palace.
When the Mongols evacuated, they had already moved all the valuables in the palace.
Now, the huge palace has become empty.
Only some carved beams and colorful Buddhist murals still show the former luxury and splendor.
Zhu Han and Zhu Yuanzhang looked around in the Dayuan Palace.
When they came to the back of the palace hall, they saw a magnificent palace.
When everyone walked into the main hall, they saw a huge Buddhist picture of flying heaven on the wall in front of them.
It's just that the female Bodhisattvas in these Buddhist flying paintings are very different from ordinary Guanyin Bodhisattva. They are all dressed in cool clothes, showing enchanting figures, and their eyes are blurred and seductive.
As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang saw these Buddhist flying sky pictures left by the Mongols, he immediately showed disgust.
"They are all crooked and deceptive things!"
"Someone, smash these things for me."
Zhu Yuanzhang had a hot temper and became angry when he saw these bald donkey things left by the Mongols.
"Wait a minute."
Zhu Han waved his hand and stopped several Jinyi guards who were about to step forward.
He smiled at his elder brother Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "Brother, these things are all treasures."
"Baby, what kind of treasure is it?" Zhu Yuanzhang looked puzzled.
Zhu Yuanzhang did not like these Buddhist murals with strong exotic flavor, which is naturally a normal thing.
But Zhu Han, as a modern man who has a very good understanding of traditional Chinese culture, does know the artistic value of these Yuan Dynasty murals.
Although these murals have a strong exotic feel.
But they are all made by Han craftsmen, and their skills are inherited from the Mogao Grottoes area in Dunhuang, Ganzhou.
Historically, after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Buddhism with a strong Western style was restructured on a large scale, and very little was left intact to future generations.
Such a huge Buddhist mural in the Mengyuan Palace would definitely be a priceless treasure if left to future generations.
"These are my Ming Dynasty's trophies. Transport them to Yingtian Mansion to show future generations what things the Mongols left behind. They know how difficult it is for future generations to have peace and happiness."
Zhu Han already had the idea of building a Ming Dynasty museum in his mind.
In his plan, every time the Ming Dynasty conquered a place, valuable local objects must be transported to the Ming Dynasty Museum to display the martial arts of the Ming Dynasty.
The Great Britain of another time and space used this method, using the British Museum to give the people of an isolated island country a global perspective.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhu Han’s expectation for the Ming Dynasty is not just to become a Han Dynasty in the Central Plains, but to look across the world and become an empire on which the sun never sets. This kind of great empire
The people must have the mind and vision to look at the world. If these things are to be rooted in the minds of the people of the Ming Dynasty, an all-encompassing Ming Dynasty museum must be built.
Zhu Han used these words to answer his brother Zhu Yuanzhang's doubts. After hearing Zhu Han's words, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded in agreement.
Later, Zhu Yuanzhang handed over this authority to Zhu Han regarding how to deal with the palace left by the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties.
After some investigation, it was found that not only the royal palace but also the mansions and mansions of various officials in the capital were all wiped out when the Mongols retreated.
Under this situation, Zhu Han immediately suggested to Zhu Yuanzhang that all the houses controlled in the city should be returned to the imperial court.
"Why should the imperial court be taken back? Shouldn't it be distributed to the poor majority of the people?" Brother Zhu Yuanzhang asked with some confusion.
Zhu Han shook his head and said: "If these houses are distributed to the poor people, it will only solve their temporary difficulties. But from now on, the capital city will be the important northern border defense town of our Ming Dynasty. There will only be more and more people in the city. By that time
Many idlers who are of little use to the imperial court in the Northern Expedition will occupy a lot of houses in the city, and the later people will not be able to have their own residences. This is very unfavorable for our soldiers guarding the border at Damingshu to settle here."
The reason Zhu Han thinks this way is because he has a longer-term consideration. Now that the Mongols have retreated from here, they have left a lot of houses and land, which can be distributed to the people of today's capital.
They became tenants who owned a lot of real estate, but the soldiers and civilians who came later had no place to stand. Moreover, once these people became beneficiaries, they would definitely resist the various future policies of the imperial court.
