Chapter 1580: Expansion of Territory

Most of the Yuan Dynasty was captured by the Baodao Army, and then the Baodao Army and the Southern Rebels fought another two years of war in the Yangtze River Basin.

Later, neither side wanted to fight. Finally, representatives from both sides held a peace conference in Jinling and established the Ming Dynasty.

Although the people in Baodao were very confused, Guo Polu compromised after knowing that Dulan was behind Zhang Wuji. He knew that Dulan supported Zhang Wuji, so Zhang Wuji must have something extraordinary.

The following year Zhang Wuji ascended the throne and led the imperial army to personally conquer Mongolia.

Before Dadu was destroyed, the ministers carried the unconscious emperor out of Dadu and returned to the Mongolian grasslands to rebuild their political power. However, Mongolia had no power to fight back. Facing the Xinming army, Mongolia was defeated at the first touch, and the Chinese region was once again unified.

.

Zhang Wuji later recognized the independent sovereignty of the countries in the Western Regions and no longer regarded them as lords. He successfully appeased the countries in the Western Regions that were ready to make moves, and then turned around and worked hard to manage Asia and develop islands in the East China Sea and the South China Sea.

Zhang Cuishan became the Supreme Emperor inexplicably. He was still confused when he arrived at the new palace in Jinling. He had no idea that his son would become the emperor in just a few years. Zhang Wuji was only in his early twenties this year.

In the palace, Zhang Cuishan felt uncomfortable and still wanted to go back to Wudang, but Zhang Wuji was busy with government affairs and had no time to listen to Zhang Cuishan's ideas, so he kept putting it off.

There are not many people who became emperor at the age of twenty, but he was definitely the first to conquer the empire at the age of twenty. Zhang Wuji has become a legend, but it is easier to conquer an empire than to maintain it. Whether Zhang Wuji can be a good emperor depends on his ability to govern.

how.

In order to develop the desert island, Zhang Wuji promoted to demobilized soldiers and bankrupt refugees that as long as they immigrated to the desert island, they could get a large amount of land and get tax exemption.

However, the miasma poisonous insects on the southern islands are frightening. You must know that although the level of science and technology has improved in this era, the technology trees are all crooked. In terms of medicine, it is still old Chinese medicine, and the chance of being cured is still uncertain.

Although the land is tempting, you must have a life to enjoy it.

So we tried very hard to promote it, but the effect was dismal.

After Zhang Wuji learned about it, he decided to expand the scope of publicity. Anyone who is willing to develop the island can obtain the status of the Ming Dynasty and become a glorious Ming Dynasty person. He hopes to attract people with lustful eyes to go there. Anyway, someone needs to go.

If there is really no other way, directly mobilize the established troops to open up wasteland and live on the island. When the service period is over, ask them if they want to stay.

All in all, we are trying our best to open up new territory.

Zhang Wuji is still very rational. Although the land in the Western Region is fertile, it is thousands of miles away and is blocked by deserts, grasslands, and mountains. It is really difficult to control. It is better to incorporate those islands into the territory southward and use ships to conveniently expand the land, which is comparable to letting the countries in the Western Region

Fake respect should be practical.

At the beginning, the actual area under the control of the Yuan Dynasty was not large. Although the expedition reached the Atlantic Ocean, in the end the Yuan Dynasty had almost no contact with the Atlantic coast. Now it is not even known whether the countries on the other side of the Atlantic have remained the same. Therefore, although the expedition was majestic, it brought little

There is no actual benefit.

Wang Bao is a retired soldier. He is a loyal fan of Zhang Wuji. Now he also has two guns in his waist, just to imitate Zhang Wuji's gun fighting skills. During the war, he was a general bannerman and had fifty people under his command.

Zhang Wuji became the emperor, and Zhu Yuanzhang is now the general marshal of the world's soldiers and horses, so the military system he formulated is still in use. At the local level, the military official positions of the Ming Dynasty are divided from high to low: commander, guard commander, thousand households, hundred

Household, general flag, small flag.

The small banner manages ten people, the general banner manages five small banners with a total of 55 people, the hundred households manage two general banners with a total of 112 people, the thousand households manage ten hundred households, and the guard commander manages five thousand households.

Originally, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted the Ming Dynasty's non-commissioned officers to be hereditary to stabilize military morale, but Zhang Wuji rejected the hereditary system. He did not think that the children of military officers would be good soldiers. Zhang Wuji even encouraged soldiers to explore the new world.

In such an environment, Wang Bao, an inconspicuous little officer, boarded a ship heading south. This ship was specially designed to transport resources for land reclamation, including agricultural tools, seeds, and of course people.

Wang Bao left all his pension at home. His family did not want him to leave, but he felt that since the emperor wanted him to go south, he should go. He believed that the emperor would not lie to him, because the emperor had always led him

They won the battle, and this time they opened up wasteland as well.

This boat will pass by Treasure Island and will also bring a group of people with it.

Before setting off, Wang Bao heard that there were savages on those islands, and that mosquitoes were as big as the palm of your hand, and that when the weather was hot, they could be turned into dried meat after standing for an afternoon. However, these scary words did not scare Wang Bao, and he still had no hesitation.

The earth has come.

He also met several other people on the boat, including demobilized soldiers like him and homeless vagrants. Some left voluntarily, while others were forced to leave.

Wang Bao was most familiar with a down-and-out scholar because they were from the same hometown. This scholar was named Tang Qiu Ming, and he was sold by his uncle at home. He was not willing to go to sea, but if he didn't go to sea, he wouldn't even be able to eat in his hometown.

Moreover, the contract has been signed, and if the scholar does not come, he will go to jail.

Scholars were scholars of the previous dynasty. Although this dynasty recognized them, the treatment was no longer there.

Scholars, Juren, Gongshi, Jinshi. Although Xiucai is the lowest level for gaining fame, it can also be divided into three, six or nine levels.

Tang Qiuning was one of the first-class scholars and was called Lin Shan Sheng Yuan, that is, Lin Sheng. During the Yuan Dynasty, he could receive a subsidy of four taels of silver every year.

The second-class scholars are called zengguangshengyuan, that is, accretionary students; the third-class scholars are called affiliated students, that is, epiphysics. These two are not subsidized by the state.

Of course, a scholar is not static. It does not mean that a scholar who passes the exam will be a scholar for life. Scholars are assessed regularly. After passing the "yearly examination", the scholar will be adjusted, upgraded or downgraded. If there are major mistakes, the scholar may even be stripped of his honor.

.

His parents passed away, his uncle took over his family property, and he lost his living allowance. Coupled with the contract, a series of blows made this thirty-year-old scholar extremely decadent.

However, it has come as it comes, and we can only accept our fate. Tang Xiucai never thought of committing suicide by jumping into the sea.

Wang Bao often shared the food brought from home with Tang Xiucai, which moved Tang Xiucai very much. He always said that even if he arrived in Nanhai, he would continue to study, and one day he would obtain fame and honor his ancestors.

Wang Bao doesn't want to make any further comments on this point. Anyway, he is going to open up wasteland, which is completely different from the scholar's goal. But having goals is a good thing and can make people live optimistically.

However, when they arrived on the island, they realized that they were too optimistic. Except for the port area, the outside was full of trees. This was not land reclamation. It had to start with cutting down trees.

Fortunately, the nearby land has been measured and the land can be allocated when people arrive.

Wang Bao got a large piece of land, but he couldn't laugh or cry. The land was big, but it was full of trees. It was enough for him to cut down the trees for several years. How could he open up wasteland?

Moreover, this place couldn't even hire workers. For the first time, Wang Bao discovered that the emperor was actually capable of cheating people. He got a free axe, and then he had to experience what it means to "get rich, first cut down the tree."
