The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

The host of the feng shui conference is naturally handed over to Liu Rixin, the current supervisor of Qin Tianjian.

Zhu Ying has only one request, that is, to completely change the Feng Shui pattern of the court, no matter how much it costs, she will not hesitate.

Here in Nanjing, it has become more and more lively and prosperous.

The gradual transformation of the entire capital is also being continuously expanded and maintained.

It is precisely because of the strength of the capital that the absorption of the surrounding small counties has become very terrifying.

Industry is a foundation. In recent days, Zhu Ying has been continuously maintaining all aspects of industry. No matter what aspect it is, it is developing in the direction of modularization.

To put it simply, there are already hundreds of factories of all kinds, large and small, around the current capital.

Only a small part of them were established by Zhu Ying, and more aspects were operated by the private sector.

The current population of Nanjing City is already more than 200 million. It is like a place in a small alley, and it is a scene of crowded people all day long.

For this reason, we can only continue to widen and extend the outer city of Nanjing.

The busiest one is of course Zhengyang Gate. The other city gates that were previously deserted are now also crowded with people.

For Zhu Ying, if the 18 billion banknotes are not spent, they are all blank paper and have no meaning.

When these treasured banknotes are in place, they will be equivalent to today's Daming treasured banknotes, and are approaching the consistent treasured banknotes of one tael of silver in the true sense.

In the current capital, Zhu Ying, who is rich and powerful, already has such a conversion.

Accompanying it, the first is the establishment of the Daming Royal Bank.

Daming Royal Bank is a grand building on the west side of Zhengyangmen Square.

In order to better accommodate more people for management, the land here covers an area of ​​five acres, which is more than 3000 square meters when converted to future generations.

It doesn't sound big, but this is Nanjing.

It is not an exaggeration to say that every inch of land is expensive.

Only when Zhu Ying was repairing Zhengyang Avenue for construction, could he say that such a place was left.

The Royal Bank of Ming Dynasty adopts a brick-powder structure instead of the traditional wooden structure.

In terms of decoration, it is naturally Chinese style.

Just say that there are as many as 49 windows for handling business.

The most important thing is that in this Daming Royal Bank, silver and treasure banknotes are exchanged on a one-to-one basis.

In other words, if you come here with ten guan notes, you can directly exchange them for ten taels of silver.

In addition, there is a trade-in service.

Recycling is carried out according to the integrity of the treasure banknotes. Slight damage to the treasure banknotes will not affect the equivalent exchange, as long as the writing on the treasure banknotes is clearly visible.

On these two points alone, it is tantamount to completely stabilizing the value of the Daming Treasure Banknote.

When these news appeared in the Dibao, many people still didn't believe it.

After it opened, I couldn't help but not believe it.

With the rapid development of the economy, the macro control of the entire Ming Dynasty's economic status has become a more important direction.

With a stable economy, Daming now fully possesses the ability and preparation for multi-party combat.

The issue of military pay is no longer an issue for Daming today.

For some small countries that are not conducive to opening up, they now have good investment capital, and they can slowly recycle over a long period of time.

For example, Annan now.

After Annan was shot down, there must be a return in name.

But it is completely possible to achieve the degree of demilitarization.

After Annan's demilitarization, there is actually not much difference from the current direct subordinate of Ming Dynasty.

The only difference is that the nominal supreme leader of Annan is the Annan royal family.

Law, commerce, construction, security and many other aspects were all taken over by Daming.

Moreover, Annan is needed to bear the reparations regulations on the war.

It is at this point in time.

The silver deposits in Wa country have been mined on a large scale.

The mined silver ore will first be built locally for initial processing, and then transported to the capital of the Ming Dynasty in a unified manner.

"Our eldest grandson is right. This Japanese country is really a country rich in silver. Why didn't we know about this before."

"Dasun, come and take a look, the first batch of silver delivered is said to have exceeded 800 million taels."

In the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang called Zhu Ying over to share the good news.

You must know that the Wa country has not been fully developed today, and this is only the first batch of results. After the completion of various facilities, more silver will naturally be transported.

800 taels!

Even for the current Daming, this is a wealth that cannot be ignored.

You must know that this does not mean that there is only one batch of delivery every year. According to the current standard, it will be delivered every three months.

That is, four deliveries per year.

Calculated according to the least, there are more than 3000 million taels of silver in the account a year.

In the past, Daming was losing money every year, but now Daming is making a lot of income every year.

There is so much money that the household department does not know where to spend it.

Needless to say, on the domestic side.

It is imminent to build a basic civilization.

The first thing in front of us is cleanliness and public toilets.

From another perspective, it is a healthy and civilized city.

This sounds simple, but it actually means building a sewage treatment system for the entire city of Nanjing.

It is equivalent to digging a large amount of ground for unified collection and discharge.

This is a big project, especially for Nanjing today.

The previous public toilets were mainly in places like inns, restaurants, and tea houses.

Wherein the use is also mainly for toilet basins and urinals.

With a population of 200 million, if it is not properly treated, it will easily lead to a smelly feeling.

Such a situation occurred in ancient European castles.

All kinds of stench radiated from the whole castle.

Now that you are rich, you naturally have to keep up with it in many aspects.

The capital of the Ming Dynasty held Fengshui conferences and large-scale construction here.

On the Guangxi side, the 30 troops are basically well trained.

Compared with the army of the capital, Guangxi is still dominated by guards.

Because of their planting, they are usually much less familiar with combat preparations, and the pre-war drills are of great significance.

"I don't know what kind of muscle this Annan has broken. He actually wants to fight against our Daming."

"Don't you even know how much strength you have?"

"To deal with a mere Annan, how can we need 30 troops, like killing a chicken with a bull's knife."

"Commander, allow me one hundred thousand soldiers, and watch me take him down in one go."

Puding Hou Chen Huan said carelessly, not paying attention to Annan at all.

Of course, he does have the capital to be proud of. Although he is getting older now, his body is not as good as before because of the charge and battle in the early years.

But his vision is getting higher and higher.

Especially when it comes to leading troops in combat.

The Grand Commander he was talking about was naturally Jingning Hou Yesheng.

Ye Sheng, Marquis of Jingning, laughed and said: "You can't do this, Annan is only so big, after all, he wants his brothers to make meritorious deeds."

"If I follow behind you, I'm afraid I won't even have a chance to drink soup, and my brothers won't blame me to death."

When Pudinghou Chen Huan heard this, he naturally knew that he had nothing to say.

For the credit for beating Annan, the two actually didn't care much about it.

Now they are already at the level of Lord Hou, and if they go up, they are Feng Gong.

The Duke didn't say it was so easy to get.

Take a look at those who were conferred the title of Duke before, which one didn't make great contributions.

Annan is too small and the portion size is too low.

30 soldiers, which already has more than half of Annan's strength.

But for Daming, 30 troops is really nothing.

Just when the two were chatting and laughing happily, the changes from Annan made them have to pay attention to it.

The [-] elite troops of the Ming Dynasty stationed in Annan were defeated.

I don't know how many were forced to return to Daming.

What the two of them knew was obtained from the rout soldiers.

"General Wei Xing has news."

When the broken soldiers were caught for interrogation, Jingning Hou Yesheng asked quickly.

Wei Xing used to be with Ye Sheng, and the relationship was pretty good.

Hearing the rout ahead, Wei Xing was the first to be concerned.

Chen Huan, Marquis of Puding frowned and shouted: "You have [-] soldiers and horses, how did you lead to such a defeat?"

"What is the reason, tell me in detail quickly."

Hearing this, the rout soldier burst into tears: "I tell the general, it's not our fault, it's really because of Deputy Commander Li that he suddenly opened the city gate and let all those Annan soldiers in."

"Commander Wei doesn't even know what's going on, and he never thought that Deputy Commander Li would betray Daming."

"Under the siege, General Wei's life and death are now unknown."

Puding Marquis Chen Huan heard the words, stood up and yelled: "It turned out to be Li Laosi, who dared to betray me, Daming, and he would be cut into pieces."

"How dare he disregard so many robes, so-and-so will behead him with his own hands!"

Puding Hou Chen Huan's temper was originally of the irritable type, and in recent years he has improved a lot by calming down, but he was still furious when he heard such a situation.

Annan's [-] elite soldiers are extremely important to their army to conquer the South.

Under the combination of inside and outside, until King Annan, there will be no opponent who has the power to resist.

Now it is tantamount to the Southern Conquest Army going to act alone.

"Deputy Commander Chen, I promise you an army of [-], can you take a city for me first, so as to dampen Annan's spirit and enhance my majesty."

Ye Sheng's voice was relatively calm, but his heart was already very angry.

"Please rest assured, Commander, within a certain day, the city in front will be taken."

Puding Hou Chen Huan replied confidently.

Annan has [-] Ming elites, but has a large number of armored soldiers.

Armor is of great importance in warfare.

This is tantamount to depriving Annan of increasing his combat effectiveness for nothing.

The next day.

After Puding Hou Chen Huan ordered all the soldiers and horses, he directly led the team to set off first.

Guangyuan Prefecture.

This is the place where Daming and Annan are adjacent, and it is called Gaoping Province in later generations.

There has been turmoil here since ancient times, and the regime has changed hands several times.

Guangyuan Prefecture was the first to belong to the Central Plains Dynasty.

During the Song Dynasty, Nong Zhigao, a local chieftain in Guangyuan Prefecture, rebelled and was put down by the Song Dynasty.

Annan proposed the territory of Guangyuan Prefecture to the Song Dynasty. The emperor of the Song Dynasty thought that Guangyuan Prefecture was remote and difficult to defend, so he bestowed Guangyuan Prefecture on Annan.

In the mountainous jungles of Guangyuan Prefecture, the specific height of the mountains is more than 400 meters. Except for Gaoping, Fuhe, Dongxi, Qixi and other towns, which are earthy mountains, the rest are mostly rocky mountains.

The mountains are high and the slopes are steep, the terrain is dangerous, and there are many natural caves and rock crevices.There are dense jungles on the mountain and few roads.

It is especially difficult to fight.

But who is Pudinghou Chenhuan, a well-known mountain warfare expert, this question is in front of him, it is really not too difficult.

Especially with the help of artillery.

"Come and try today, the arquebus that His Royal Highness Taisun personally supervised is so powerful."

Chen Huan, the Marquis of Puding, smiled, and led the army directly to drive away.

Here are just a few earth mountains, not stone mountains.

Just a salvo of artillery blasted the earth mountain to bloom in all directions.

This simple city wall was like paper in front of the Ming army.

After three rounds of artillery, the matchlock gun brigade in the front row began to press on.

Today's arquebus is simply a nightmare on the battlefield.

Even though Annan had a good location, the bow and crossbow could be thrown, but compared with the arquebus, it was not very effective.

The matchlock gun with improved accuracy can easily hit those Annan soldiers occupying dangerous areas.

With just a few salvos, the advantage of the high ground was greatly weakened.

It's no wonder that the Mengyuan iron cavalry was defeated in Annan. In such a geographical environment, the cavalry could not play a big role and was hindered by many obstacles.

But infantry don't have to worry about this at all.

Just move forward slowly.

There was continuous artillery fire and gunfire.

Marquis of Puding Chen Huan didn't have to worry about the supply of gunpowder at all. Daming's supply of firearms was already very sufficient.

"Tsk tsk, this is much easier than charging forward with a big knife at a certain family's time."

"The arquebus that His Highness Taisun made is really a good thing."

Puding Hou Chen Huan watched the overwhelming situation leisurely.

As Annan's frontline area, when Daming assembled its troops, it had already continuously increased its soldiers.

Even in such a small place, Annan has enough troops of [-].

In Hu Jishou's view, it can completely stop the Ming army for a long time, and the geographical advantage can also cause more casualties for Ming.

Pity.

The only thing he didn't think of was the matchlock gun.

In just two hours, this area was completely taken down.

After rushing through the incomplete city wall, An Nanbing's side had already completely collapsed, completely at the mercy of slaughter.

After Pudinghou Chen Huan left [-] elite soldiers to guard him, he couldn't wait to go to the next place.

He wanted to take down all four small towns, Gaoping, Fuhe, Dongxi, and Qixi, before dark.

After playing Gaoping, the rest is much simpler.

After three rounds of artillery, the firecrackers pressed directly, and Annan's soldiers had no defense at all.

When the sunset was approaching, these four towns had all been brought into Daming's hands.
