Daming: Lend the system to Emperor Hongwu at the beginning
Chapter 117 Zhu Yuanzhang: What is the law of robbers?
Chapter 117 Zhu Yuanzhang: What is the law of robbers?
In a small valley just north of Keelung Port.
Mu Ying and Lan Yu gathered here with 300 people each.
This is Daming's special forces.
From the original Tiger Battalion with 120 people under Mu Ying's command, to the current Tiger and Falcon Battalion with a total of 600 people.
There are 300 people in each battalion, and the ones with the lowest cultivation level are also martial arts masters who have just entered Huajin.
If this kind of thing was told ten years ago, I am afraid that ten out of ten people would not believe it.
At that time, there were only a dozen Huajin masters in the entire Great Ming Dynasty, and each of them was a thunderous existence, but now Huajin can only be regarded as good.
In the words of His Highness the Crown Prince, if you don't enter the ranks of the innate, and truly step into the ranks of the extraordinary, everything is an ant.
"How to say?" Sapphire sat on the ground with a big thorn, with a big knife stuck beside her, and asked.
"As soon as the guns rang, we went to take over the enemy's fort."
"I heard that the Japanese emperor is also here, so let's compare, who will kill the Japanese emperor first?"
"Okay, this kind of thing is my favorite!" Sapphire grinned.
This was the first battle since the establishment of the Falcon Battalion, and his Sapphire's ability to win the position of Falcon General of the Falcon Battalion did not depend solely on Chang Yuchun, his brother-in-law.
Without diamonds, he can't do porcelain work, he Sapphire thinks he is not weaker than anyone else.
If he hadn't been born more than ten years later than those veterans, maybe he still has a seat among the six founding dukes.
"kill……!"
Soon there was a loud cry of killing from Keelung Harbor.
"Action!" Mu Ying, wearing a pair of bright silver armor and a red cloak behind her, bounced off the ground suddenly.
Behind him, the 300 members of the Tiger Camp were also fully armored, not even showing their faces.
These armors were all made by Zhu Biao from the small world of Base No. [-], [-] sets.
Zhu Biao left [-] sets in his own military guards, and handed over the remaining [-] sets to Zhu Yuanzhang, who was then distributed to the Tiger and Falcon Battalions by Zhu Yuanzhang.
This kind of armor Zhu Biao has been tested, even if it is hit by bullets at close range, it can't break the defense, and it is light and suitable for warriors to use. It is perfect.
He speculated that this thing should be made by qi masters using special methods to melt some kinds of spirit gold.
Even if the magic circle on it is not damaged, the spiritual material on it will degenerate into mortal material, resulting in its true power ten to seven, and the power it can display will be even greater.
Even now, its hardness far exceeds any alloy Zhu Biao has ever seen.
The current Ming Dynasty is far from having the technical means to refine such armor.
So there are [-] sets, one bad set and one less set, which is quite precious.
The six hundred masters of Huajin rushed out of the valley like a red torrent without a sound. They ran at full speed, like galloping horses, and without the heavy hooves of galloping horses.
When they burst out from behind the fort,
The faces of the Japanese who were controlling the fort to fire all looked like they had seen a ghost.
"Baga! Road!" A Japanese commander suddenly pulled out the Japanese sword, but he had just taken a step when a big sword came first and cut him in half.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Sapphire curled her lips and smiled.
"Bang!" At this moment, someone in the distance hid behind the cannon and shot him.
"When...!" Sapphire was shot in the waist.
He reached out and touched, and there was an extra groove on the armor.
This immediately made his heart ache.
"Dog, how dare you break Lao Tzu's armor!"
"Die to me!" He shouted angrily, turning into a gust of wind and whizzing away.
The whistling of the cannons in the rear suddenly stopped!
This made Emperor Meiji and William the Englishman on the front line feel a little bad at the same time.
On the other side, without the suppression of cannons, the Japanese who landed were all shocked, and once again let out howls of ghosts and wolves, and launched a charge.
"His Excellency, I think there may be something wrong with the rear battery!"
"We can't delay any longer, we must make a quick decision!"
"How did you prepare for what I asked you to do?" the British guy said with a serious face.
"Yangxi!"
"One thousand warriors have been selected, and they are all willing to die loyally for our Great Japanese Empire." Emperor Meiji showed a solemn expression on his face.
When Emperor Meiji spoke, he waved, and soon a team that had been recharging its energy was pulled up by him.
These people are all Japanese young people aged 22 to [-].
"You will not die in vain. I swear that I will lead Japan to become great. In the future, I will build a shrine, and let your names be engraved on the rankings, and be enshrined by all the people of my Great Japanese Empire."
"And you are not alone on the road, because there is still the blood of these Ming people to commemorate them." Emperor Meiji pointed at the Japanese who were about to rush to the front of the battle, and said in a deep voice: "Now go and kill them all."
"Hi!" The 1000 people had firm eyes, and at the same time took out a bottle of light blue medicine and swallowed it in one gulp.
"Give it to the bald man!" They pulled out their Japanese swords and rushed towards the Japanese man on the opposite side.
"Pfft!" A Japanese was stabbed by a Japanese knife.
But the Japanese didn't seem to notice it, and directly chopped off the opponent's head with a knife in his hand.
Then he roared and pulled out the Japanese sword on his body, and rushed into the crowd howling with each hand.
On the battlefield, William and Emperor Meiji saw all this with binoculars.
Emperor Meiji was secretly startled, but William on the opposite side introduced it proudly: "This is the first potion of my British Empire, and I call it the undead."
"After taking it, within half an hour, no matter how many injuries you encounter, you will not die, and your strength and speed will increase exponentially!"
"Of course, because there is no magic element, today's immortality potion also has a disadvantage, that is, it can only last for half an hour!"
When it comes to Moyuan, William feels a little heartbroken.
That stupid vampire ancestor actually stole more than 800 magic yuan accumulated by the British Empire for decades, and was beheaded by the Ming people, and the magic yuan was taken away.
This is simply unforgivable.
Those things were obtained by the people of the Ming Dynasty, so maybe they will fiddle with them to create something!
This is also an important reason why Britain so urgently supported Japan and declared war on Ming Dynasty.
To be honest, the death of the ancestor of the vampires made the adults in the council rejoice. After all, no one wants to have such a dirty and extraordinary creature who can lead all vampires around him all the time.
They have been suppressing vampires in the past, holding a large amount of magic yuan but not willing to create more, because the ancestor of vampires is still alive.
If there are too many vampires, their status will be seriously threatened.
Now that he is dead, it is time to vigorously develop vampires, but the magic element is gone...
This made the gentlemen in the parliament almost vomit blood.
"boom!"
Mu Ying shot off an undead man's head, the latter twitched twice, and finally stopped moving.
"Not dead?"
"I don't think it's that exaggerated!" Mu Ying gently blew on the muzzle of the gun, and put the gun back into her waist.
He and Sapphire had already controlled the opponent's fort. He heard that a monster appeared in front of him and killed all the Japanese people, so he brought people over to have a look.
It turned out that it was just a group of monsters who possessed the level of power for a short time.
And compared to Huajin Grandmasters, they are easier to kill, because their heads are too easy to be exploded.
Mu Ying glanced at the battlefield and found that the overall situation had been settled, so she couldn't help raising her head to look at the local positions.
At the same time, Emperor Meiji was also looking this way.
The two looked at each other, Mu Ying grinned, and made a gesture of wiping her neck.
Emperor Meiji's pupils shrank involuntarily, and then he lost his temper in an instant.
"idiot!"
"Aim at that person and kill him!" Emperor Meiji roared.
But even though he looked angry, his steps were retreating.
Obviously, he has already seen that Keelung Port is doomed. If he does not leave, he may not be able to leave.
"His Excellency, where are you going?" William the Englishman followed closely behind Emperor Meiji.
He is not a fool either. Compared to the Japanese, the British's escape skills are full.
"Pfft!" Emperor Meiji suddenly turned around and stabbed William in the body.
"You...!" William had an unbelievable look on his face.
"Compared with letting you go back with me, I think it's more appropriate to let Mingren kill you!"
"I hope this will allow the British to provide more assistance to our Great Japanese Empire!" Emperor Meiji's face flashed a trace of cruelty, kicked William over, changed into the clothes of ordinary soldiers, and slipped away quietly.
"Have you found the Emperor of Japan?" Sapphire asked as she came out of the back position with a depressed face.
"No ah!"
"I showed my head just now, and then I haven't seen it again. I guess I ran away early!"
Mu Ying was also a little helpless.
"It doesn't matter, this bet is still valid. If Taiwan can't kill him, we'll go to Ryukyu or Japan. I don't believe it anymore. The emperor is a loach."
"Even if it's a loach, I'll dig three feet to find him and hack him to death." Sapphire looked domineering.
An hour later, in a building just built by the Japanese in Keelung Port.
Chang Yuchun and a group of navy and army generals gathered together.
"Next, the whole army will rest in Taiwan for a period of time."
"In the shortest two months, we must clean up the banditry and pirates in Taiwan, and we must not let go of the strongholds of foreigners."
"Your Majesty means that this place will become one of our military ports in the future, and no foreign country is allowed to dock without permission, and it is not allowed to pass through the Taiwan Strait."
"From now on, all the ships on the sea that don't pay taxes will be beaten one by one!" Chang Yuchun said domineeringly.
"Marshal, when are we going to fight Japan?" Lan Yu asked expectantly below.
"Your Majesty has sent me a message that another ship full of [-] samurai has already set sail on the Wa country, and it will arrive soon. Let's wait for them, and when those people arrive, we will go to Japan and kill him Not a piece of armor is left."
Hearing Chang Yuchun's words, all the generals below couldn't help cheering up.
Those Japanese are really too arrogant, and this time they can finally vent their anger.
"Protest, we protest, the Ming people seized our merchant ships without reason. This is a piracy that violates the freedom of navigation? Ming must give us an explanation for this matter."
In the city of Guangzhou, representatives from several countries including France, Germany, Russia, and the United States came together to file a complaint for Chang Yuchun's blockade of the Taiwan Strait and the seizure of merchant ships.
And Zhu Yuanzhang's answer is also very clear: "The appeal is invalid. If you want to pass through the Taiwan Strait, you must pay taxes. All merchant ships that do not pay taxes will be regarded as smuggling and will be resolutely cracked down on."
"Ming people are playing with fire!" the French representative said in a deep voice.
"Hehe, we know that the French have always been eager to move towards Vietnam. If you dare to try, we will make you regret it!" Zhu Yuanzhang personally received these representatives and responded domineeringly.
"What right do you have to intervene in Vietnam's affairs? That's a contradiction between us and Vietnam!" the French representative said angrily.
"Hehe, Vietnam has regarded my Ming as the suzerain since ancient times. Since it is the suzerain, it is my territory. If you dare to invade Vietnam, you will invade my Ming."
"Hmph, bandit logic!" The French representative walked away in a huff.
"And you, the Russians have been very aggressive recently. They first occupied Sakhalin Island and now they are planning to attack the east of the Ussuri River, and their actions in Xinjiang are not small. What do you want to do?" Zhu Yuanzhang turned to look at the representative of Tsarist Russia.
"Hehe, this is a matter between us and the Qing government. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with Ming?" The representative of Tsarist Russia laughed.
"Qing court?"
"It's just lingering, the whole of China will sooner or later be the country of our Daming!"
"So you are encroaching on our Daming's land now!"
"Go back and send a message to Alexander II, tell him to wash his neck and wait. We will call to Moscow sooner or later."
The face of the representative of Tsarist Russia became more and more ugly.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the remaining people again and said, "How about you? What do you want to say?"
"His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, we guarantee that we will abide by the laws of the Ming Empire when sailing in the Far East in the future..."
Wait for a few reps to leave.
Yang Xian and Hu Weiyong, who were called to watch, stared wide-eyed, not knowing what to say.
"Just say what you want!" Zhu Yuanzhang said with his eyes closed.
"Your Majesty, wouldn't this offend all the surrounding countries?" Yang Xian asked cautiously.
"Ah!"
"When you first came here, you didn't know much about the behaviors of the countries around you!"
"To put it simply, except for me, Ming Dynasty, all the surrounding countries follow the logic of robbers!"
"Do you know what a robber is?"
"It's just bullying the weak and fearing the hard!"
"The kinder you are in front of them, the more they think you are easy to bully and want to make things difficult for you."
"Yang Xian, you will be in charge of diplomatic affairs in the future. Please remember clearly. When dealing with foreigners, don't try to play politics in vain. Those barbarians don't understand. Be high-profile and arrogant. The more high-profile and arrogant, the more they are afraid of you and the more I dare not touch you, understand?"
"Yes!" Yang Xian hurriedly agreed respectfully.
"Hu Weiyong, you are in charge of the economy here."
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced lightly at the last prime minister of the Ming Dynasty who was originally in power and said: "What you have to do is to cooperate with the industrial plan of our Daming side, and at the same time build the industrial system here."
"Everything is under the command of His Royal Highness, understand?"
"Understood!" Hu Weiyong was excited.
He has been in the position of Shangshu for more than ten years, and now he finally has the opportunity to go further.
He has to take hold.
"Very good!" Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and waved the two away.
This Yang Xian is a smart man. Unfortunately, as Liu Ji said, being too small is not a talent for a prime minister, but it is still possible to be a diplomat in the chaotic situation of the late Qing Dynasty.
As for this Hu Weiyong, he is indeed a talent.
In the original history, although Zhu Yuanzhang's deliberate indulgence in his monopoly of the prime minister for more than ten years was included, this person is indeed a rare expert in handling government affairs.
It's a pity to kill it directly, so it's better to pull it over and use it first.
If it is really arrogant and unconvincing, if you have a double heart, it will not be too late to kill.
To be honest, with the recovery of Daming's aura and the gradual emergence of the prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Yuanzhang no longer felt as insecure as in the original history.
For him, with the revival of spiritual energy, Daming who is now developing martial arts and science and technology at the same time is easier to control than the stagnant Daming before.
Because in the original history, after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, especially after the 13th year of Hongwu, the Quartet was completely pacified, there were no external enemies, and after the pressure dropped sharply, all kinds of contradictions that he suppressed before would naturally erupt.
In addition, the cake of the Ming Empire has been divided up, and there is no way to make it bigger.
Some people are dissatisfied with the piece of cake in their hands, so they naturally set their sights on the cakes in the hands of others, and some even set their sights on the biggest piece in the hands of the emperor. .
At this time, if he doesn't move the knife, someone will move the knife first.
Indecision is not in his character, and Zhu Yuanzhang understands the principle of preemptive action better than anyone else.
The killing started naturally.
But it is different now, the pie of Ming Dynasty has been growing, and none of the empire controllers can touch anyone's interests, so naturally they are still harmonious.
A leader of the Huaixi Party like Li Shanchang, he can always be a prime minister, not to mention little people like Hu Weiyong and Yang Xian.
His current appointment of people is much more lenient than in the original history.
Another very important point is that the development of science and technology and the development of martial arts will bring the Ming Empire closer. In the past, it took a month or two to go to Nanjing for a frontier memorial, but now with the train, it can be reached in a few days.
The person in power has a deeper grasp of the entire empire and more power in his hands, so it is naturally harder for officials from all over the country to fool him.
This is also an important reason why Zhu Yuanzhang is willing to spare no effort to develop technology and martial arts.

In a small valley just north of Keelung Port.
Mu Ying and Lan Yu gathered here with 300 people each.
This is Daming's special forces.
From the original Tiger Battalion with 120 people under Mu Ying's command, to the current Tiger and Falcon Battalion with a total of 600 people.

"How to say?" Sapphire sat on the ground with a big thorn, with a big knife stuck beside her, and asked.
"As soon as the guns rang, we went to take over the enemy's fort."

"Okay, this kind of thing is my favorite!" Sapphire grinned.
This was the first battle since the establishment of the Falcon Battalion, and his Sapphire's ability to win the position of Falcon General of the Falcon Battalion did not depend solely on Chang Yuchun, his brother-in-law.
Without diamonds, he can't do porcelain work, he Sapphire thinks he is not weaker than anyone else.
If he hadn't been born more than ten years later than those veterans, maybe he still has a seat among the six founding dukes.
"kill……!"
Soon there was a loud cry of killing from Keelung Harbor.

Even now, its hardness far exceeds any alloy Zhu Biao has ever seen.
The current Ming Dynasty is far from having the technical means to refine such armor.
So there are [-] sets, one bad set and one less set, which is quite precious.

It's a pity to kill it directly, so it's better to pull it over and use it first.
If it is really arrogant and unconvincing, if you have a double heart, it will not be too late to kill.
To be honest, with the recovery of Daming's aura and the gradual emergence of the prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Yuanzhang no longer felt as insecure as in the original history.
For him, with the revival of spiritual energy, Daming who is now developing martial arts and science and technology at the same time is easier to control than the stagnant Daming before.
Because in the original history, after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, especially after the 13th year of Hongwu, the Quartet was completely pacified, there were no external enemies, and after the pressure dropped sharply, all kinds of contradictions that he suppressed before would naturally erupt.
In addition, the cake of the Ming Empire has been divided up, and there is no way to make it bigger.
Some people are dissatisfied with the piece of cake in their hands, so they naturally set their sights on the cakes in the hands of others, and some even set their sights on the biggest piece in the hands of the emperor. .
At this time, if he doesn't move the knife, someone will move the knife first.
Indecision is not in his character, and Zhu Yuanzhang understands the principle of preemptive action better than anyone else.
The killing started naturally.
But it is different now, the pie of Ming Dynasty has been growing, and none of the empire controllers can touch anyone's interests, so naturally they are still harmonious.
A leader of the Huaixi Party like Li Shanchang, he can always be a prime minister, not to mention little people like Hu Weiyong and Yang Xian.
His current appointment of people is much more lenient than in the original history.
Another very important point is that the development of science and technology and the development of martial arts will bring the Ming Empire closer. In the past, it took a month or two to go to Nanjing for a frontier memorial, but now with the train, it can be reached in a few days.
The person in power has a deeper grasp of the entire empire and more power in his hands, so it is naturally harder for officials from all over the country to fool him.
This is also an important reason why Zhu Yuanzhang is willing to spare no effort to develop technology and martial arts.
