The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 562
For Wala, Daming is not an immediate threat.

Because at this time, no khan of any tribe would think that the grassland would be ruled by the Ming Dynasty.

No one would have thought that Zhu Ying wanted to bring the grassland into the direct territory of Ming Dynasty.

Even if someone spread this statement, the people in the grassland would only be crazy.

Daming is such a wealthy place, why come to such a bitter cold place?

You must know that even some areas that are better than the grasslands are nothing more than places of exile in the eyes of the people of Daming.

So now the constant fighting on the grassland, everyone thinks it's temporary, and it won't take long for it to stop.

Perhaps Daming felt that Bei Yuan's threat was too much, but because Bei Yuan once lived in the Central Plains, he wanted to break it up.

Once the Beiyuan is destroyed, the grassland will still be the grassland it used to be, and the Central Plains will also be the Central Plains.

In fact, when the grassland military base was established, some Han Chinese who served the Mongols on the grassland also had concerns, but no one cared about their thoughts.

Even if Wala sent troops to help Bei Yuan, it was only for a better share of the pie, and even took this opportunity to annex some tribes, population, and wealth belonging to Bei Yuan.

Compared with Beiyuan, the living environment in Wala is actually more worrisome. After all, it is closer to the north. The severe cold in winter will freeze many people to death every year, and those with a slightly poor physique will basically not be able to survive.

There is also a huge problem with rations, and the total population is hard to say.

In today's grassland, bloody battles are staged every day.

Whether it's Sapphire or Zhu Di.

In the face of the cavalry that keeps emerging from the grassland, it is difficult to maintain a record of complete victory.

The Mongols are not fools, so naturally they will not go head-to-head with the army. The main battle is still concentrated on the supply line.

On the other hand, Daming couldn't gather a large army, so the burden was too heavy. On the vast grassland, infantry didn't make much sense at all.

Once seeing the infantry, the Mongols' first reaction was to run away. They had suffered too many losses before, so how could they lose their lives in vain.

As a result, only small-scale battles broke out on the grassland, with the number of people ranging from a few hundred to a few thousand.

The army of tens of thousands is completely invisible.

Even the Beiyuan iron cavalry scattered into small teams to carry out raids.

Zhu Ying also has nothing to worry about.

Regarding Huaixi Xungui, he was continuously sent to the grassland to join Lan Yu and Zhu Di.

Anyway, it’s just playing and spending.

According to the current rising financial resources, material resources, manpower, food and so on of Daming.

There is no problem in directly dragging the grassland to death.

After all, don't let him recuperate.

In such an environment, don't talk about any covenant, so that the entire grassland has been in turmoil.

In another ten years, just look at him, how much temper can he still have?

Here in Japan.

King Zhu of Jin and King Zhu of Qi arrived in Yancheng one after another.

When they first arrived in Yancheng, Zhu Wei and Zhu Wei were shocked by the prosperity of Yancheng.

Because here, they saw the prosperity that only belonged to Daming.

Of course, it is far from comparable to the capital, but it is more than enough compared to some relatively affluent Jiangnan areas.

There is no harm in this thing without comparison. Seeing Yancheng like this, undoubtedly made Zhu Wei and Zhu Wei feel a little bit more thoughtful.

"Thank you two uncles for your concern, my nephew is fine now."

Zhu Gaochi's complexion was still a little pale, but he was still a little angry when he spoke, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.

Even the eunuch following behind looked almost the same.

"These damn Japanese assassins actually assassinated my son Daming, they are simply bold and lawless."

"Nephew, just wait, since they have done the first grade of junior high school, then the king will have done the fifteenth grade."

"After you go back, this king will definitely give you such a bad breath."

Zhu Yan's tone was very angry, but in this anger, there was also a surprise that was easier to perceive.

Previously, because of the covenant issue between Daming and the Wa Kingdom, Zhu Yan did not dare to send troops to conquer the Wa Kingdom privately when he was restrained.

It's different now, Daming Crown Prince was assassinated, which is equivalent to giving a very good excuse.

This gave Zhu Yan a chance to use force.

Zhu Yu also said with concern from the side: "It's good to see that my nephew is fine. This country is far away from Daming, and we three uncles and nephews are here to support us. If anything happens, of course we still have to watch and help each other."

"Now my nephew is suffering and almost lost his life. Seeing that Uncle Wei feels very uncomfortable, he is just like the third brother. After Uncle Seven returns, he will definitely have to pay the price for the good life of the Japanese country."

"We need to let them know that we, Daming, are not something they can offend."

Hearing what the two uncles said, Zhu Gaochi couldn't help showing a moved expression on his face.

In fact, I was cursing in my heart.

How could he not know the calculation of the two emperor uncles? They just wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to plunder the Wa country.

After all, Zhu Gaochi also understands that the development of the city of the two imperial uncles is extremely slow now, whether it is business or other aspects, it seems relatively disorganized, and the law and order is even more messy.

Most of the businessmen from overseas gathered here, and the businessmen from the Japanese country basically would not go to those two sides.

Regardless of Jincheng or Qicheng, the status of the Wa people is extremely low, almost no different from slaves.

Although the Ming Dynasty had already abolished the slave system and prohibited any trade involving slaves, this is overseas, as long as it was not done clearly, who would care so much.

"With the care of the two uncles, my nephew feels much warmer here."

"Just don't let the two uncles lose something because of the nephew's affairs. If this is the case, the nephew will have a great sin in his heart."

"If there is anything my nephew can help with, please don't be polite and just speak bluntly."

"My nephew must be doing his best here, and there will never be any ambiguity."

Anyone can say beautiful words, and Zhu Gaochi will not stop the matter of the two emperor uncles.

As the saying goes, a few people don't suffer evenly. Although I haven't been to Jincheng and Yancheng, I can definitely guess the general situation.

It is estimated that the development is not very smooth.

With the help of ministers like Xia Yuanji and some benevolent government measures on my side, it is naturally much more prosperous than the two cities seem to be.

Zhu Gaochi also understands that although the economy is developing well, the military strength controlled by the two emperor uncles is completely beyond his reach.

This is not a question of too many soldiers.

In terms of numbers, the current strength of the three cities is probably not much different, but the most important thing is to lead the troops.

The third uncle's side is no worse than his father's king, and the seventh uncle's side may not be as famous, but that is not something that a teenager like himself can compare to, and there is no general guarding the city .

If you really want to compare it, maybe your own Yancheng has no resistance to the two emperor uncles at all.

It's not a level of fighting at all.

In the era of cold weapons, the commander is very important to an army. In the case of the same force, different generals lead the army completely differently.

Zhu Fen and Zhu Wei only spent the night, and hurried back.

At this time, it is just the time for them to play their role. If the interrogation on Daming's side is over and the conditions with the Wa Kingdom are negotiated, there is a high probability that they will not be able to mobilize troops at that time.

In terms of time, it is very tight.

After returning to Jincheng, Zhu Yan immediately began to mobilize troops and horses, and in the name of seeking justice for his nephew, he did not hesitate to launch an expedition.

The situation of the Wa country, in fact, really has no resistance for Zhu Yan or Daming.

This is also a good development of the Wa Kingdom after the Tang Dynasty. In the past, if hundreds of households were surrounded by wooden railings, they could be called a country.

Now there are at least a few thousand households.

To be a little more challenging.

But these habits are really not interesting to speak of under the great battle of Daming's side, which ranges from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands.

It's completely crushing.

And the current Wa country is not when the Ming Dynasty first arrived, mobilizing hundreds of thousands of troops and mobilizing young and strong people everywhere.

After the peace covenant, naturally the forces in other regions have already returned.

How can any effective resistance be formed in a short period of time.

It's just that for Zhu Yan, these small places are really poor. Except for the population, there is almost nothing to plunder. Even if they are called nobles, they can't even compare with the wealthy landowners in the countryside of Daming.

This road crushed the past, completely like a spring outing, quite boring.

"My lord, good news, great news."

Zhu Yan was beating some disobedient Japanese nobles boredly, when a thousand households came galloping on a fast horse, only saw a figure, and heard a voice.

"What good news can there be in such a broken place?"

Zhu Yan turned his head and glanced at the thousand households, then slapped the Japanese noble with a whip, and said casually.

Qianhu hurriedly got off his horse, walked a few steps up to Zhu Yan, clasped his fists and bowed, his face was a little red, and his voice was more excited: "My lord, I waited for the former army to find an open-pit silver mine a few miles away."

"Good guy, you don't need to dig, you can pick up the white money directly."

While talking, that Qianhu took out a silver stone from his bosom.

The exposed silver light is quite dazzling in the sun.

Daming was short of silver, even if it was Zhu Yan, how had he ever seen such silver stones, he threw his whip and shouted: "Quickly wait for the king to go over and check."

Zhu Ying will not lie.

Of course he knew that Wa had always been rich in silver mines.

It's just that in fact, even Zhu Ying had never been to the Wa country in her previous life, and most of her understanding of the Wa country came from some books.

It's one thing to know this thing, the Wa country is not too big if it is said to be big, and it is not too small if it is said to be small.

But it is also impossible for him to say that with a rough version of the map of the Japanese country, all the silver mines will be marked out.

I'm afraid Xueba may not be able to know such unpopular knowledge.

When the Japanese conquered the country, the ministers tacitly did not mention the issue of gold and silver.

Although it was said that when you went to fight the Wa country, you were rushing towards this matter, but if you went to find out the old account of the grandson, wouldn't you be impatient?
If you really want to bring up this topic in the court, let alone Jin Yiwei, even His Majesty will have to find a way to evaporate you from the world.

But fortunately, the conquest of the Wa Kingdom went relatively smoothly, and no major setbacks were encountered, and what the great victory of the Wa Kingdom brought about was the spread of Ming's reputation.

So in this regard, Zhu Ying still established the majesty of her grandson.

In an open space, this place has been guarded by a large number of soldiers.

Zhu Yan came here and flew off the horse, without any scruples about his own dignity, he squatted on the ground to check the stones.

"It's really a silver mine, it really is a silver mine, my eldest nephew, he really didn't lie to us."

Holding the stone picked up from the ground, with a faint layer of silver on it, Zhu Yan laughed wildly.

All the soldiers around had extremely satisfied smiles on their faces.

This indicates that everyone's military salary may be raised a lot in the future.

Since coming to Wa country, the soldiers are actually not very satisfied with this place.

This place is too poor, and there is absolutely no wealth to grab. In Zhu Ying's words, it can only be constructively plundered.

The so-called constructive plunder is to develop the economy here, and then continue to ask for it.

This situation is what Zhu Gaochi is doing, but for Zhu Yan and Zhu Wei, the efficiency is too slow, and there is no fun at all.

They prefer to grab directly.

It's just that these places, after being robbed once, are almost completely deserted. Such a small population can create some wealth.

But when silver mines were discovered, it was a completely different story.

This portends a lot of money.

It doesn't matter if you are poor here, as long as you have enough money, you can go back to Daming to spend.

With regard to the restrictions on vassal kings, there is nothing to say that the vassal kings who established the country overseas will not be allowed to return to Daming. This is still very different from the previous system of vassal kings.

And for the soldiers, they can apply to return to Daming to visit relatives in a few years.

People, the most fearful thing is that there is no target. Under such circumstances, it is more at ease for the soldiers to stay in the Wa country.

Zhu Yan immediately summoned the talents of Jinyiwei to assess the silver mine here.

Because Zhu Ying said before that there are many silver mines in the country of Japan, when manpower is allocated, there are still some talents for geological surveys.

And Jin Yiwei's establishment can be said to contain talents from all walks of life. The capital's notoriety is only because it is more famous in investigations.

Jin Yiwei's talents will come over soon for an investigation.

After the initial investigation, Zhu Yan was given a reassurance that this is a medium-sized large silver mine.

The specific number will not be known until after preliminary excavation, but this indicates that there will definitely be no shortage of mineral deposits inside.
