eldest son of Ming dynasty

Chapter 868 Injecting Military Soul

"The emperor wants to make great efforts to immigrate to Tai and Lu. It seems that he is more or less influenced by the "Tales of Ten Thousand Kingdoms". The eldest son of the emperor feels like a treasure with such a big country strategy, and he must also have the approval of the emperor. Yan Bu , our Prime Minister’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs can’t lag behind others?”

The back yard of the Yamen of the Prime Minister’s Department of Foreign Affairs,

Yan Song was watering the flowers and plants with a leisurely expression. Behind him were two old and thin officials, who were actually his subordinates.

"Cabinet, has a new charter been issued? How are they going to relocate such a huge population?"

"It said it was going to be outsourced."

With the continuous emergence of all kinds of new things, the word company has been around for more than ten years, and outsourcing has inevitably appeared.

Yan Song immediately thought, "Is someone interested in this?"

The two old men behind him looked at each other and smiled.

One of them said, "Ministry Yan still knows the truth. Judging from the performance of the cabinet, in order to meet His Majesty's requirements, the qualifications for outsourcing must be relatively loose. Find a few ships and get hundreds of people to Taiwan, and Lu will get a lot of money." Silver, people who are envious of such simple business can't think much about it and can't do it.

Moreover, being dragged down by the official bank smuggling case, everyone in Zhang Dang would tighten their tails this time and would never dare to reach out again. Without tigers in the mountains, monkeys will definitely become kings. Since the news came out, Beijing has become lively. "

"Yes. Not only that, I heard that His Majesty has made a big decision this time. It happened that the official silver smuggling suddenly got a lot of money, and His Majesty is prepared to do it at any cost."

Yan Song kneaded the leaves in his hands and said, "Your Majesty is thinking about the entire Nanyang. Although a few ships and a few soldiers can take down that place, the sparse population is like a house on quicksand. It will fall down one day. For this reason With the vast land and sea areas, what are millions of taels of silver worth?”

"That's right, that's right. Your Majesty has seen thousands of miles, swallowed up mountains and rivers with anger, and naturally couldn't bear it after reading the "Illustrated Records of Ten Thousand Kingdoms" by Bowang Hou."

"Well, as for this business..." Yan Song thought for a while, "It can be done."

Seeing him nod, the two people behind him suddenly became happy.

"The emperor cares about the results, not the process, and always looks at the overall situation, not the details. Since such an immigration plan has been set, sending people there is the biggest reason. As for who the money is given to... it doesn't matter. Who completes it? Well, who can earn this money?"

"I'm just waiting for Yan Bu's words!"

Yan Song's lips curved, "But one thing must be remembered. The Emperor is generous, but he will not let you fool him. No matter how great Zhang Cong's contribution is, isn't the official bank smuggling case extremely thrilling? So if you have a life to make money, you must also have a life. Just spend money.

Please tell me, our people must not break the rules of the court when doing this business. If something happens within the rules, I, Yan Song, can protect him. If something happens outside the rules, I, Yan Song, will kill him first! "

"Understood! Thanks for the reminder, Yanbu! Those subordinates have resigned."

"go Go."

Yan Song laughed twice.

In fact, he also faces the same problem as Zhang Cong. Zhang Cong wants to employ people, and he also needs to employ people.

Since he wants to employ people, he must make the people below him profitable.

It's just that he is more strict with his subordinates, as if they are smuggling official silver without telling him, something will definitely happen.

He didn't pay much attention to the issue of money.

He was just a little envious of Bowang Hou Jingyang.

Speaking of which, Jing Yang entered the attendant's room after him.

Nowadays, relying on a copy of "The Illustration of Ten Thousand Kingdoms", people are not only famous all over the world, but also have great support from the emperor. Speaking of which, Zhang Qian of the Han Dynasty was still alive.

Everyone in the DPRK understood that the immigration to Taiwan and Lu was riding on this east wind.

As for the emperor's eldest son's behavior, it seems to be the same.

These money-obsessed people were thinking about money, and he had to think about business.

Since we have colleagues with Jing Yang, we might as well pay him a visit at this time.

Learn more about the outside world, and show off when confronting the emperor to show that you are tolerant and open to the outside world.

At the same time, he is a foreign affairs officer, and the emperor will definitely ask questions about how Ming Dynasty will deal with the outside world in the future.

Thinking of this, he had no choice but to put away his leisurely thoughts and prepare to go out.

……

……

Speaking of the other side,

Zhu Houzhao finally 'couldn't hold it any longer' and began to make some 'foreign policy' adjustments.

At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang specified fifteen countries that would not be conquered in the "Ancestor Instructions of the Emperor Ming Dynasty". What are countries that should not be conquered? A deeper understanding is that from now on, our old Zhu family can calmly take care of their own land, manage their own throne, and manage their subjects well, but don't have any external thoughts.

The original saying is: The barbarians in the four directions are all isolated in a corner, separated by mountains and seas. The land they get is not enough to provide for them, and the people they get are not enough to command them. If they don't think about themselves and come to scratch our side, it will be unlucky for them. Even if they are not troubled by China, it is also unlucky for me to raise troops and commit minor crimes. I am afraid that future generations will rely on China's wealth and strength, be greedy for temporary military achievements, raise troops for no reason, and cause harm to human lives. This must not be done.

Look, Zhu Yuanzhang has spoken. Of course, some of Lao Zhu's decrees have been overturned by many of his descendants.

Zhu Di overturned a lot of things. However, in an environment with heavy secular concepts, there are some things that can be done but not said.

There are silver mountains in Japan and treasure lands in Luzon, which Zhu Houzhao got through.

But if you want to put Zai's set of things on the table, you need some warm-up.

This was also the reason why he didn't agree to Zaihe immediately.

This guy only cares about what he wants and doesn't care about anything else, but Zhu Houzhao himself can't be equally stunned.

He needs to send some political signals.

We also need to pave the way for military reform.

So he came to the Army Academy.

The Army Academy is located in Xicheng. It has continued to expand since its establishment. Today, the number of students on campus has exceeded 3,000.

It also offers courses on political theory (the Four Books and Five Classics), history, geography of the Ming Dynasty, combat command, organizational training, weapon use, basic military theories and skills, and military science.

The biggest change the Army Academy made to the Ming army was that it provided a large number of officers to various units in the past twenty years who were not only literate, but also had basic political literacy, historical knowledge and combat command experience.

This played a huge role in reshaping the face of the military.

Especially the group of officers between the ages of 20 and 30. When they were young, they were instilled with the national concepts of the Han and Tang Dynasties, the descendants of the Yan and Huang Dynasties, and the majestic emperor Han. At the same time, they felt that the Ming Dynasty was the invincible Ming Dynasty that people from all over the world came to worship. .

A glorious country plays a powerful role in forming cohesion among military personnel.

people,

After all, it's still Mu Qiang.

Who likes to hang out with Xiao Zhao San? Most of them still like to follow the famous people in the world and be proud of them. That's it.

And for such an important place, its dean has long been promoted to concurrently serving as the Minister of War. Most of the teachers in the hospital are officers who have been injured and retired from the front line.

Zhu Houzhao has always advocated that soldiers’ scars are a symbol of glory.

So every time he came, he would put disabled soldiers in a position of respect.

All the teachers and students of the school were mobilized to stand in the largest single-story building. The emperor was standing on a few floors higher.

These disabled soldiers were either on crutches or sitting on chairs, all arranged on the surrounding steps, guarding the emperor at the top like stars over the moon.

When the emperor came over, they kneeled down to him as a military salute.

The emperor bowed his hands to them as a military salute.

Then everyone shouted in unison, "See you, Your Majesty! Long live my Emperor! Long live my Emperor! Long live my Emperor!"

The passion and unyieldingness of soldiers that have been repeatedly emphasized for twenty years can finally be seen and felt more and more clearly.

The disabled soldiers around him were walking down several steps. Looking at the firm and strong eyes of these people, Zhu Houzhao believed that Ming Dynasty was still hot!

"Be flat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The roar was so loud that the roof was about to crack.

Zhu Houzhao was also wearing a military uniform today. He glanced around and finally said, "Today, I want to tell everyone good news. Four months ago, my soldiers from the Ming Dynasty's expedition to Luzon have arrived successfully. At this moment, They have already started fighting. Why do I want to send them so far away?! Because there are the people of the Ming Dynasty! The merchant ships of the Ming Dynasty! And the Ming Dynasty, the new territory! I believe that soon, the soldiers on the front line will give me, Good news to Ming Dynasty!

Last month, Bowang Hou Jingyang finally returned. He used his step-by-step footsteps to tell everyone in the Ming Dynasty that beyond the Ming Dynasty, there are still vast territories and hundreds of countries! There, if a country meets a wise king, its national strength will grow and its territory will expand; if it meets a faint king, it will be in danger overnight, and the people will be in dire straits!

There, there is no country like the Ming Dynasty that unifies the north and the south. Countries large and small are constantly fighting against each other. There is no etiquette at all. The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit!

But I can tell you now that although the world is big, Ming Dynasty is still the country with the broadest territory; although there are many countries, Ming Dynasty is still the most powerful one!

Some of you may one day go abroad and fight on the battlefield. Until then, please hold your heads high and your chest high, hold on to the weapons in your hands, follow the banner of Ming Dynasty, move forward bravely, and never retreat! Because you are the strongest army in the world, and behind you is the strongest country in the world!

"Tales of Ten Thousand Kingdoms" shows us a new world. In the new world, all countries will either become strong or die! A weak country will have no dignity. Soldiers, do you want strength and dignity, or death and shame? ! "

"Powerful! Powerful! Powerful!"

Three roars made Zhu Houzhao's own blood boil.

"In order to be strong and adapt to the new era, I order today in the name of the Emperor. From today on, the Ming Army will be renamed the National Defense Force! The mission of the National Defense Force is to be loyal to the Emperor, protect the people, and defend the territory. Even if you die, you will have no regrets!

In this world where the weak prey on the strong, I want you to become the protector of my Ming Dynasty and defeat all enemies of the Ming Dynasty. Fight to create a strong country, fight to protect the folks in my hometown, fight so that future generations will not be enslaved by outsiders, fight to make our Han nation stand on top of the world! The Ming army is invincible! "

This was the first time that the emperor began to make requirements for the construction concept of the army.

He wanted to inject military spirit into the Ming army, and it all started with this Army Academy lecture that will be recorded in history.

"The Ming army is invincible!"

"The Ming army is invincible!"
