Daming: I, the emperor who trains the carpenter

Chapter 804 Take away the emperor, the future of Japan will be dominated by Ming Dynasty

"Although Dongying is a small country with few lands, it is still an important vassal state of my Ming Dynasty, and it is not close to my Central Plains when it is alone overseas."

"Since the envoys were sent in the Han Dynasty, they have only visited Beijing several times in the Tang Dynasty."

"After the founding of Taizu, Dongying also sent envoys to see him, and envoys also came here during Chengzu's time. But I didn't expect that Dongying would want to close the country in this dynasty!"

When Zhu Youxiao said this, there was a hint of anger in his tone.

Isn't that right, don't mention the Han and Tang Dynasties, don't talk about the Song Dynasty.

When the Taizu Emperor of the Ming Dynasty founded the Ming Dynasty and Jianyuan Hongwu, you sent an envoy from Dongying to congratulate you and became my vassal of the Ming Dynasty.

When I was Emperor Taizong Wen of the Ming Dynasty, Yongle was prosperous, and you sent an envoy from Dongying to congratulate me, and I was still a vassal of the Ming Dynasty.

Later, Renzong, Xuanzong, and then Sejong came down from generation to generation. Although they repeatedly violated the border, the connection between Dongying and Daming has never been broken.

Ah, it’s time for my Zhu Youxiao’s Apocalypse Dynasty. If you say that you have closed the country, you will close the country. Is it because Zhu Youxiao can’t lift a knife or your shogunate thinks you can show off?

Looking at the former samurai shogunate and the emperor's court, no one said that they had cut off communication with the Central Plains, but when it came to the Apocalypse Dynasty, Tokugawa Iemitsu wanted to close the country.

Zhu Yuxue was curious about what he did to make Tokugawa Iemitsu disrespect him so much?

Don't you have enough merits?

Suppress the Tatars, destroy the Eastern captives, sweep across the grasslands, destroy Annan, pacify the Western Yi at sea, and accept 23 countries in Nanyang as vassals.
Not to mention that the Ming Dynasty is now peaceful and peaceful, the people have enough food and clothing, people all over the world live and work in peace and contentment, commerce and trade are developed, academics are prosperous, and science and technology are prosperous.
Such a powerful national power, such a dreamy prosperous age, even the industrial revolution did not cause any turmoil in Ming Dynasty. I am self-effacing and say that I am comparable to Qin Huang, Han Wu, Tang Zong and Song Zu. Jun.

Why is Tokugawa Iemitsu so arrogant, he repeatedly invites countries to open up trade and communicate with each other, but he is only thinking about closing the country.

After calming down his anger, Zhu Youxiao said: "Tokugawa Iemitsu will clarify the canonical punishment, but Japan also needs appeasement. The shogunate must continue to exist and maintain order in Japan."

"The imperial court needs to send an important official to Dongying to appease those feudal dynasties. What do you think?"

Zhu Youxiao's important minister is not a third-rank servant, at least a second-rank minister, or even a first-rank scholar.

Qian Qianyi thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to go to Dongying."

Zhu Youxiao looked at Qian Qianyi, his plan was to let one of Huang Liji or Qiao Yunsheng go to Dongying, and when he came back, it would be logical to add some burdens to them, so that the imperial cabinet would not seem to have these two people .

But looking at Huang Liji and Qiao Yunsheng's old gods, they obviously don't plan to go to the troubled waters of Dongying.

Zhu Youxiao has a headache, is it time to get rid of these two people?

There are quite a lot of four elders in the cabinet, not to mention Master Sun who is in Liaodong. There are now seven elders in the Tianqi Dynasty. Looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, there are too many elders, which is useless.

After thinking for a moment, Zhu Youxiao nodded: "Since Qian Ge always has this kind of heart, then Lao Qian Ge always has to go."

"As for the placement of the garrison in Dongpu and the training of the servants, you, General Zhao, are in charge. Master and I happen to have a new idea for the new army. We can take Dongpu as a pilot first."

Qian Qianyi and Zhao Yuqi said: "I accept the order."

At the court meeting the next day, Zhu Youxiao awarded Qian Qianyi the crown prince and grand teacher, took the title of minister of the military department, and joined Dongying Xuanfu envoy to go to Dongying to appease the people.

At the same time, Zhao Yuqi stepped down from the rank of general who conquered the East, and still led the presidents of the four towns, and joined Dongying's disposal envoys to go to Dongying for military adjustment.

This appointment naturally caused another wave of trouble. Qian Qianyi's rank of prince and grand teacher and the rank of minister of the military department are not important. Looking at the current cabinet bachelors, almost all of them lead the prince's grand teacher or prince's junior teacher. To put it bluntly, it is just to seal a title of Cong Yipin.

And the Minister of the Ministry of War is the normal state for cabinet ministers to go to the place where they are envoys or to sit in one side.

For example, when Zhang Haogu, the chief assistant of the cabinet, went to the southwest to quell the disaster in Annan, he was also the Minister of the Ministry of War, just to improve the deployment of local soldiers and horses.

As for Dongying Xuanfu Envoy, this title is very interesting. It was a job in the Tang and Song Dynasties. It was usually used to appease the local people. Now it is used to appease Dongying. Then it is worth guessing what His Majesty the Emperor is thinking.

After all, Zhao Yuqi was the envoy to lead Dongying and dispatch the soldiers and horses of Dongying. The former Xuanfu envoy and the latter envoy did the emperor have any ideas about some of the duties in the Tang Dynasty, or what ideas were there for the surroundings?
After all, Zhao Yuqi, the president of the four towns in charge of Dongying, dispatched Dongying soldiers and horses, and supervised Dongying's military administration. In the Tang or Han Dynasty, the correct name should be Dongying Duhufu.

It's not surprising to have this idea. After all, Qian Qianyi brought a large number of imperial uniforms to Dongying. At that time, all the feudal lords, generals of the shogunate, and other positions will have to accept the canonization of the Ming Dynasty and receive the imperial seals of the Ming Dynasty. Orthodoxy is recognized.

Adding all this up, the emperor in the Hall of Martial Heroes has a very clear idea. Dongying will still be Dongying in the future, but the name of Dongying will be changed.

On the iron-clad ship Pingliao, Qian Qianyi was standing on the deck, blowing the sea breeze.

Zhenliao, Pingliao, these are ironclad ships of the same scale but not of the same batch, but Zhu Youxiao's purpose can be seen from the name.

At present, the ironclad ships of the Ming Dynasty, Zhenliao, Zhenqi, Zhennan, Pingliao, Pingnan, and Pingdong, all have their own sustenance. Zhenliao and Pingliao are to deal with Liaodong, and Zhenqi is the foundation of the new deal in Shandong. , Zhennan is dealing with the original Annan's current friendship, Pingnan refers to Nanyang, and Pingdong refers to Dongying.

Each of these warships has its own meaning, and they all place the expectations of the court.

Standing on this huge warship, some wind and waves on the sea can't make any waves at all, Qian Qianyi didn't even feel any bumps, admiring the scenery on the sea, looking at the distant islands, Qian Qianyi looked comfortable and relaxed In addition, I have a lot of new ideas for this trip to Japan.

Zhao Yuqi didn't have much contact with Qian Qianyi, and if they don't mention their civil and military distinctions, the most important camp can't be justified.

Don't look at the improvement of the old party now. Looking at the 47 towns of the new army in Daming, is there a town where all the old parties are in it?

Looking at the formation of the new army in her room, Zhao Yuqi's brows tightened and relaxed.

Zhu Youxiao wanted to expand his army. He planned to train more troops not only for maneuvering, but also for the future when the imperial court pacified the Liao Dynasty or fought against other places. of.

But Zhang Haogu thinks more. It is not realistic to expand the 47 towns at present, but it is possible to increase the number of people in each town.

Zhang Haogu's idea is to use each town as a strategic unit in the future. In addition to a certain number of infantry, a town also has cavalry, artillery, logistics, and other accessories to form a complete and effective strategic unit. Each branch, each association, and each school can fight alone, and even a battalion is the most basic combat organization.

According to Zhang Haogu's idea, combined with Zhu Youxiao's idea of ​​expanding the army, the latest formation of the new army in Zhao Yuqi's hands appeared.

Each town is no longer limited to infantry and cavalry, but a combination of various arms. There will no longer be a three thousand battalion that is pure cavalry, and the Shenji battalion is a division of separate arms such as long-range strike forces.

Therefore, as a basic unit, each battalion has an additional team of cavalry in addition to the infantry. During combat, it can also receive artillery support from the upper town and association, and can fight independently.

The association unit is a standard strategic unit. Each association can act independently and is responsible for a battlefield. When it comes to the comprehensive strategic unit at the town level, it is even more responsible for fighting in one direction.

This is undoubtedly a very large military expansion plan. The current 47 towns will undergo changes. For example, the original eight Mongolian cavalry towns will be reduced to four cavalry towns, and the remaining cavalry will be merged into 39 new infantry towns. The total strength of the new army will also expand from 47 to as many as 78.

"What a big plan."

Zhao Yuqi sighed, with excitement on her face. As soldiers, the senior generals of Ming Dynasty liked the expansion and strengthening of the army the most. Now in the development period, war is ignored.

"A town organizes and trains 24 infantry battalions, two artillery battalions, two cavalry battalions, and so many hunting troops. There are more than [-] infantry alone, plus artillery, logistics and many other manpower. A town is as high as More than [-] people! Such a town is more than enough to guard a province, so the imperial court can free up a large number of towns for other places."

"There will be an additional ten new cavalry associations, 25 independent artillery battalions, and a magic battalion. When the imperial court announces the plan, the government and the public may not know how much trouble it will cause."

Zhao Yuqi understood why Dongying was used as a pilot first. According to Zhu Youxiao and Zhang Haogu's ideas, the Ming Dynasty was equivalent to doubling the existing new army. It's an earth-shattering thing, and it's best to take your time.

Such a large establishment, so many new firearms, and training so many cavalry, must be a long-term thing. Now, we will first train a cooperative pilot in Dongying, or conduct a pilot test.

Thinking about it, Zhao Yuqi solemnly put away the plan, and he was one of no more than seven people in the new army who knew about the plan.

Putting away the plan, Zhao Yuqi thought about how to deal with this plan, as well as Dongying's [-] to [-] servants, it must be impossible to train them completely in accordance with the new army training code of the Ming army, so that they can protect themselves and suppress The strength is enough.

Just as Zhao Yuqi commented on Dongying, Da Ming must not loosen the shackles on Dongying's neck, nor give Dongying a chance to expand his ambitions, nor let Dongying see the hope of breaking free from the shackles.

The iron-clad ship Pingliao sailed into Edo Bay under the escort of a group of large and small Fuchuan. The feudal lords of Dongying, the shogunate and the imperial court's officials and samurai who had received the news early had already arrived in Edo.

Looking at the approaching black giant ship from a distance, watching the giant monster floating on the sea like an island, gradually approaching, until the warship entered the port, the giant ship like a hill docked on the shore, casting a large black shadow With an infinite sense of oppression, the shogunate and Dongying imperial court's military officials and vassal lords realized the gap between Dongying and Ming Dynasty, and everyone's expressions became more sincere. When faced with irresistible forces, Dongying will always show Very respectful.

As the baffle was lowered, Qian Qianyi and Zhao Yuqi set foot on the land of Edo under the guard of a group of new army officers and soldiers, and immediately received a warm welcome from Dongying's nobles from the military family.

Even organized many merchants and ordinary people to raise various banners.

What is "Welcome to the National University of China."

"Welcome to the Angel of the Kingdom."

"Welcome to Shangguoge elder."

Waiting for the flag to be waved excitedly by these people, showing the sincerity and humbleness of the Dongying people to Qian Qianyi.

What surprised Qian Qianyi the most was that these Dongying nobles and nobles specially organized a large number of good families and geisha to comfort the heavenly soldiers who came from afar. The brand was also waiting to be selected, and Qian Qianyi couldn't help showing a suspicious look.

"General Zhao, is this... recklessness?"

Qian Qianyi couldn't help but doubt that Daming defeated Dongying, captured the emperor and shogun of Dongying, burned Edo, and crippled Kyoto. This time, if Da Ming suffered such a heavy blow, he must not hesitate Fight back at all costs. If the emperor is gone, he will be replaced. If the general dies, he will be re-elected. If he cannot be defeated, he will run away and resist everywhere.

Why is Dongying's performance similar to that of Baozong and the Song Dynasty?

The emperor was taken away, and he sent women and goods to comfort the enemy. Is Dongpu really so weak?
Could it be that he was imitating the king of Yue and trying his best? Maybe there will be a wave of blows at some point?

Looking at the suspicious Qian Qianyi, Zhao Yuqi smiled and said: "Old Qian Ge, Dongying is like this, as long as you are better than him, he will behave extremely obediently and well-behaved, even if you step on his face or sit on his head They are also willing to eat shit and pee. But as long as they can’t continue to be strong and strong, they will change their faces, peep at you like hungry wolves, and tear you apart. How cute they have been before, they will show later How crazy."

Qian Qianyi glanced at the nodding and bowing nobles on both sides, and nodded slowly: "This pavilion understands. This pavilion will not give Dongying this opportunity."

The welcome queue organized by the shogunate and Japanese aristocrats lined up from Edo Port to Edo Castle. The urgently repaired Edo Castle still had traces of being burned and shelled, but the common people put on humble smiling faces. Holding colorful flags and waving the Ming flag to welcome the arrival and rule of the Ming army.

Qian Qianyi had already fully understood what he was going to do, he didn't show any arrogance, on the contrary he was very approachable.

For Japan, which advocates force and power, such an old man who seems powerless cannot gain their respect and fear at all, but this old man is a cabinet scholar of Ming Dynasty, and he holds the power to control their life and death. Therefore, although Qian Qianyi's performance was easy and kind, these officials and warriors were still respectful. They were afraid of the power in Qian Qianyi's hands, or in other words, they were afraid of the Ming Dynasty behind Qian Qianyi.

Afraid of the power displayed and hidden behind the dark, huge mountain-like ship with full-body iron armor, huge artillery, and billowing smoke.

As long as Daming maintains absolute strength like now, they will not be able to resist.

All the way to the shogunate, now the shogunate and Edo are all under the control of the Ming army, and there are soldiers of the Ming army everywhere.

Qian Qianyi undoubtedly sat in the general's position. His current status was much stronger than that of the shogunate general who conquered barbarians.

Looking at the shogunate on both sides and the military officials of the Dongying court, those feudal lords, and those envoys, Qian Qianyi showed an amiable smile, and spoke the official Ming dialect. Anyway, these people can understand Chinese. In other words, if these Japanese aristocratic officials could not read or write Chinese characters, they would not be able to reach their current status.

After all, Dongying, like North Korea, is deeply influenced by the culture of the Central Plains. Chinese characters are the official official language, and no one recognizes their own characters outside.

"Cough cough."

With a slight cough, the officials, military families, nobles and nobles all looked at Qian Qianyi quietly, waiting for the man who had the power to dominate Dongpu to speak.

"Tokugawa Iemitsu is arrogant and arrogant. He disobeyed the holy will and disrespected the heavenly court. He closed the country and retreated without authorization. Now the official punishment has been declared. According to common sense, Dongying should destroy the country, and everyone should be punished by the family to show my majesty."

Qian Qianyi's words are not bragging. The last one who was arrogant and conceited was Annan Kingdom, and the results of Annan Kingdom have also been seen. Cultures and traditions were destroyed one by one.

This is the most common method used by China to treat foreign races. It destroys the country, punishes the clan, destroys its ancestral temples, destroys the temples and destroys its cultural heritage. part of China.

Thinking about the terrible future, these nobles in Japan couldn’t help but shudder: the 10,000 Ming army has defeated 10,000+ elite shogunate. If [-]+ Ming army arrives, they will destroy their towns and burn them written books, cut off their family inheritance, and wiped out all existing influences
That's horrible!

When all their influence in this world is wiped out, will they still exist in the eyes of future generations?

Daming is capable of doing these things, that's why they are so afraid, afraid of such a terrifying power, and afraid of the unimaginable future.

Qian Qianyi took a sip of his tea and continued, "But my Emperor, His Majesty Ming, is kind and willing to give Dongying a new future."

Calmly looking around at the nobles and lords of the East, Qian Qianyi's tone was firm and unquestionable:
"The war can end, and everyone's status will not change in any way, and the family can still be passed on."

"However, all of this must be established under the leadership of my Daming."

"Da Ming, come to give Dongpu and everyone a new future."
