Daming: Lend the system to Emperor Hongwu at the beginning

Chapter 185

In fact, the gathering of talent is faster than Zhu Yuanzhang expected.

Only three months have passed since Li Shanchang left Beijing.

The Nine Tripods of Zhenguo in the Jiajing plane are all condensed.

And just at the moment when Zhenguo Jiuding was condensed, the Jiajing plane before Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes underwent earth-shaking changes.

He has a global vision similar to Zhu Biao.

In his field of vision, countless light spots floated from the heads of every common people covered by the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and merged mightily into the Nine Cauldrons of Zhenguo.

Then through Zhenguo Jiuding, give back to all Confucian and Taoist extraordinary people who firmly believe in fairness, justice, and the rule of law.

Of course, what also changed is myself.

The dragon aura of imperial body protection on his body also changed with the appearance of all the nine cauldrons.

Nine body-protecting real dragons slowly condensed, three of which were clearly visible, and the other six were slightly illusory. Obviously, these three were clearly formed by the Zhenguo Ding that Zhu Yuanzhang had endowed with the three commonalities of fairness, justice, and the rule of law.

Zhu Yuanzhang has a feeling that he seems to have become stronger, his longevity has also increased, and he has some special abilities.

"Perhaps this is the real cultivation method for emperors under the system of Confucianism and Taoism." Zhu Yuanzhang said thoughtfully.

At the same time, Zhu Yuanzhang also remembered what Li Shimin said.

Water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it.

The people are water, and the country is a boat.

Zhenguo Jiuding is not only a sharp weapon for the emperor to restrain Confucianism and Taoism, but also a sharp weapon for the common people to restrain the emperor.

"Perhaps this is the true portrayal of those who win the hearts of the people win the world!" Zhu Yuanzhang thought.

And while Zhu Yuanzhang was studying Zhenguo Jiuding, Zhu Biao was also observing the changes in Confucianism and Taoism in the Jiajing plane.

Of course he is from another angle.

Sure enough, the extraordinary system of Confucianism and Taoism talent is similar to the power of faith in the gods of the main world. "

"But it's a little different. It should be said that this is unique to Huaxia, a special Niwan Palace cultivation system."

If it is said that under the god cultivation system, believers believe in a single god with wisdom and thought, under the extraordinary system of Confucianism and Daoism, what the common people believe in is the country.

The state has no concrete mind, not even life.

But the state has a will of its own.

For the former Ming Empire, the will of the country was actually Zhu Yuanzhang's will. Of course, after joining this extraordinary system, the will of the country has quietly changed.

He began to represent the interests of the general public.

If the interests of the people at the bottom are damaged, it will soon be transmitted to Zhu Yuanzhang's body-protecting dragon energy through Zhenguo Jiuding.

Even if the people's belief in national beliefs collapses on a large scale, it will directly affect the stability of Zhenguo Jiuding, and even the extraordinary system of Confucianism, Taoism, and talent may collapse.

Even Zhu Yuanzhang can't change this.

Unless he wants to completely abandon the extraordinary system of Confucianism and Taoism, completely abandon Confucianism and Taoism.

This is of course impossible.

But in fact, the change of the will of the country did not have a big impact on Zhu Yuanzhang.

What he has always done is for the people, and he is originally in the same camp as the interests of the majority of the people.

"On the contrary, it is impossible for the emperors who may exist after the Ming Dynasty to have the option of a faint king."

"Om...!"

At this time, the power of heaven and earth was shaken, and the fourth commonality of Zhenguo Jiuding was endowed by Zhu Yuanzhang.

"patriotic!"

This commonality is not as expected by Zhu Biao. After all, the concept of the country has been quietly popularized by him before the reform of the imperial examination system.

Presumably, over the past few years, patriotism has gradually spread throughout the entire Jiajing plane, and even the entire Ming Dynasty.

"For the people!"

"honest!"

"Loyalty!"

"Integrity!"

"Professional!"

Zhu Yuanzhang obviously had already thought about his choice, and quickly wrote down the remaining five commonalities in one go.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help being happy when he saw these five commonalities.

This is all-round restricting Confucianism, Taoism and extraordinary people who are officials!
In the previous Ming Dynasty, officials always advertised that they worked hard for the country and the people, so it goes without saying in the future, as long as you stand in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, Lao Zhu can see clearly what qualities you have.

"The hard days of being an official are coming."

On the other side, in the Ming cabinet, Zhang Juzheng and others also felt what the remaining commonalities of Zhenguo Jiuding were.

Including Zhang Juzheng, everyone couldn't help showing a wry smile.

"Your Majesty is really ruthless!" Gao Gong sighed.

"Your Majesty, this is also for the sake of my Ming Dynasty. For the sake of the people, we deserve to suffer!" Hai Rui said with a smile all over his face.

Hearing this, Gao Gong sighed helplessly.

What he lacks in the six new qualities are incorruptibility and honesty.

Integrity is very simple. He is very convinced that the reason why he lacks this quality is because all the officials in Daming are people who tell lies and don't write drafts from top to bottom.

Just like Xu Jie and Yan Song.

For the sake of political struggle, these two people have already thick-skinned to the point of telling nonsense in front of each other without changing their faces.

He was originally a Tie Hanhan who was full of gallop, but since he was educated, he also learned to lie.

But now if all officials must tell the truth because of the quality of "integrity", then he will naturally be honest.

But honesty is a bit difficult!

As an official of the Ming Dynasty, although he never liked to accept bribes, it was normal for local officials to go to Beijing to report on their duties, especially the officials he directly supervised, and bring him some souvenirs.

If he didn't accept anything, it would appear a little unreasonable, and it would be easy for his officials to stay away.

In order to maintain the relationship with his officials, he also had to accept some gifts.

"In fact, it would be a good thing for us if we can completely eliminate the custom of giving gifts between officials!"

Zhang Juzheng stroked his beard and said: "After all, the salary His Majesty gives us is increasing every year, and there are various extraordinary spiritual objects and various benefits every month, which are enough for us to eat."

"If everyone can abide by their duties and completely eliminate the so-called reciprocity, it will reduce the burden on local officials, and it will also reduce a lot of unnecessary entertainment for us, so we can concentrate on handling government affairs."

"It must be a big sigh of relief for everyone."

Hearing the words, Gao Gong pondered for a while and said, "In my opinion, it's just a matter of directly setting the six generalities set by His Majesty together with the previous three as an internal learning material, and publishing the six parts, so that the officials below can study and understand it by themselves."

"We just need to set the rules and regulations."

"Isn't it enough to give priority to all officials who have comprehended these nine commonalities?"

When everyone heard the words, they nodded in agreement.

Although this method is simple and crude, it is extremely useful.

With the talent of Confucianism and Taoism and the temptation to get promoted and get rich, I believe that the officialdom will soon be completely renewed because of these nine commonalities.

In the blink of an eye, it was another five years.

At the same time when Confucianism and Taoism began to appear in the main world of the Ming Dynasty, and began to allow the officials of the Ming Dynasty to gain extraordinary power, the reform of the new army of the Ming Dynasty was also quietly proceeding.

The system of command envoys, inspectors, and military supervisors has been completely formed. During the past five years, the new army of Ming Dynasty has completely formed the reform of the separation of military and government.

With this reform, the combat effectiveness of the new Ming army was further strengthened.

In just five years, the entire East Asia and Southeast Asia were all in the bag, the envoys of the gods and the troops who believed in the mansion of the gods were driven away, and all the strange beasts were basically exterminated or domesticated.

Now the territory of Ming Dynasty can extend to Siberia in the north, the Strait of Malacca in the south, the towering Himalayas in the south, and the Pacific Ocean in the east, using the Hawaiian Islands as a naval military base.

And most importantly, this is no longer the original earth.

After two spiritual revivals, especially the second spiritual revival, the earth now is already very different from before.

After testing by the Academy of Sciences, the surface area of ​​the earth today has doubled compared with that of the earth 20 years ago.

So even if the territory of the Ming Empire is not included in the Jiajing plane and its various subsidiary small worlds, its territory is a full 6000 to [-] million square kilometers.

This kind of land area is equivalent to five or six times the land area of ​​Zhonghuaxia in the memory of Zhu Biao in his previous life.

August of the 55th year of Hongwu.

During a routine cabinet meeting.

Zhu Yuanzhang rarely appeared in person to preside over the meeting.

"Today we only discuss one issue, and that is Daming's foreign military operations."

"Let me say my opinion first."

"We still have to fight outside!"

"We must wipe out all the alien beasts and envoys in the main world as much as possible." As soon as the meeting started, Zhu Yuanzhang went straight to the subject's opening.

This is a conclusion he came to after studying the battle reports sent back from the front lines of various legions.

Zhang Juzheng, who had been identified as the chief assistant of the cabinet, and all the cabinet members frowned upon hearing this.

In their view, conquering a territory equivalent to the size of the Ming Empire in five years is already a very militaristic act, and the most important thing is population. Although Ming has never restricted the population, and has even been encouraging births, The growth of the population cannot keep up with the expansion of the territory.

Now Daming's main focus is on digesting the huge land of Southeast Asia.

A large number of people and resources are pouring there.

In addition, the local industry of Ming Dynasty also needs the support of a large number of people, so there is simply no extra population to develop other sites.

Even Japan is still deserted.

Those strange beasts are like weeds. Once a crop is killed, a new crop will grow soon. If there is not enough population to change the environment there, Japan, which has been conquered for a few years, will return to Japan in a few years. The state of alien beasts raging.

What's the point of knocking down a place like this?
"Your Majesty, several major kingdoms in the west have expressed their hope for peace to Da Ming, and they all said that they will try their best to restrain the attacks of alien beasts on Da Ming in the future. Should we accept it as soon as we see it? Let's talk after the territory is digested?" Zhang Juzheng said.

After these years of investigation and research, it has now been determined that the envoys who came to the main world did not believe in a god.

According to the statistics of Daming Jinyiwei, more than 20 gods sent envoys to the earth before and after.

However, after these years of fighting and killing among them, they have finally taken root here, and there are a total of three gods who established the Kingdom of God.

The god of light who occupies all of Europe.

Statue of Liberty occupying the Americas.

And the primal gods who occupy Africa.

The previous battle against Daming was actually a joint action between the God of Light and the Statue of Liberty.

"Hmph...they fight when they say war, and stop war when they say truce. How can there be such a reason in the world?"

Zhu Yuanzhang sneered.

"Besides, don't you see that those envoys from the Kingdom of God are simply a plan to slow down the army?"

"They were hurt by us, and they couldn't find a solution for a while, so they used the high-sounding excuse of peace to talk about it."

"If they have the ability to defeat us, they don't even need to defeat us, they just need to draw a tie, and they will continue to consume our vitality with strange beasts."

After capturing an envoy back then, the Academy of Sciences quickly developed an envoy capture instrument from him.

This thing is a spiritual weapon. After it is activated, it can accurately find the hiding place of the envoy within a hundred miles.

Since having this thing, it is much easier to fight those envoys.

It is only necessary to send elite warriors with capture instruments to behead those envoys before the battle, and killing the remaining strange beasts is effortless.

It is precisely because of this that the actions of the new Ming army in the past few years have been so overwhelming.

Those envoys were completely killed.

"Having said that, even if we can finally wipe them out, we will still hurt the enemy by one thousand and eight hundred!" Gao Gong said.

"It seems so now!"

"But don't forget, how did those guys come here."

"The first batch of envoys came through the way of coming from a foreign land, and the reason for coming to a foreign land is because of the second recovery of spiritual energy."

"And Daming will usher in the third and fourth spiritual energy recovery."

"What will we do if another danger befalls us at that time?"

"What if the gods of the kingdom of God come down in person?"

"At that time, I'm afraid they won't say anything about peace." Zhu Yuanzhang asked a series of questions.

"This...!" Everyone looked at each other when they heard the words.

This is indeed a question they didn't think of.

For the World Tree game, Zhu Yuanzhang obviously has his own understanding.

He glanced at the crowd and said: "Our intuition tells us that those envoys are just advance troops, or they have locked the coordinates of our world. If we don't clean up these coordinates as soon as possible, what awaits us in the future will be endless troubles. "

"Our principle has always been to nip danger in its infancy."

"Because it costs the least to do so..."
