After five years of teaching support, Daming became an empire on which the sun never sets.

Chapter 73 Have You Played Gaoli War God?
When the ministers heard the words, they nodded in agreement: "The ministers also support His Majesty, and will never oppose the war in the future."

"Your Majesty, this world map of yours is really a treasure of the country!" At this time, Liu Bowen asked, "With this map, you can see all the rivers and mountains in Daming, and the surrounding nomadic regimes are also clear at a glance."

In ancient times, it was extremely difficult to draw a correct map. A map of the territory of a country may not be completed in seven or eighty years. Even if it can be barely completed, the accuracy cannot be guaranteed.

Therefore, the maps of the dynasties in ancient times were extremely simple and even full of mistakes.

There is no map of the territory of the country, let alone a map of the world.

"More than a treasure of the country?" Gao Qi said, "In the eyes of this minister, this picture is a treasure of all ages! Because he not only has the territory of the Ming Dynasty, but also marked the Persian Food of the overseas country... and the surrounding oceans, seaports, and straits. "

"Excuse me, Your Majesty, how did you get this treasure map?"

"This is because we have read all the ancient books of Wenyuan Pavilion and sorted them out. It took several years to complete this." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Was it sorted out by Emperor Zhu?
Does he have that time and energy?

The crowd obviously didn't believe it, but they didn't dare to say it.

Don't say that Zhu Yuanzhang didn't have time to go through the ancient books of Wenyuan Pavilion, even if he had enough time, he couldn't finish it alone.

To draw a world map such a huge project, it is estimated that even if it takes thousands of great scholars, it will take a lifetime of effort to complete.Moreover, ancient Chinese books have never mentioned countries that are too far away.

"In addition, we had a dream last night, and the immortal in the dream also gave a lot of pointers. With the addition of the previous accumulation, this map has been drawn." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "And the immortal said that he is from the immortal island of Yingzhou. ."

"It turned out to be the immortal's guidance!" Everyone immediately looked like they were suddenly enlightened.

"Your Majesty has been instructed by the immortals to complete this map, which can be called a national weapon. It can be seen that His Majesty is the real dragon and the emperor." Li Shan said long, "And I have also received the blessing of gods and people, and it will be passed down for thousands of years. "

"That immortal is from the immortal island of Yingzhou, and your Majesty should send Tang He to occupy it."

"Long Live Long Live Your Majesty!"

"Okay, retreat!" Zhu Yuanzhang said.

The ministers all withdrew from the court.

"Hua Yunlong stays."

"Does Your Majesty have any other will?" After the ministers left, the Koryo Duke Hua Yunlong asked.

"The parts of this map of Goryeo and Liaodong will be captured and drawn for you to take with you." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Having the map over there will help you in your expedition to Goryeo."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Hua Yunlong said, "Even if Your Majesty does not reward you, I will still beg your Majesty."

"A geographical map of mountains and rivers is very important for marching and fighting. Although it is only a big map, it cannot be compared with a local war map, but it can also give people a glimpse of the overall situation."

"Sometimes, the map can make or break a battle."

"In addition, King Yu of Goryeo is rumored to be the illegitimate son of the Prince of Goryeo, just like Lu Buwei's son. He won the country in an unrighteous manner, so it is easier to deal with." Zhu Yuanzhang said: "But he has a general named Li Chenggui, but he is very powerful. Known as the 'God of War in Korea'. After you pass by, you will definitely face him, are you sure you can defeat him?"

"Your Majesty, it's just a Goryeo God of War, this minister is not afraid." Hua Yunlong said.

"It's good that you have this confidence, but as a general, you mustn't underestimate the enemy." Zhu Yuanzhang's expression was grim, "This battle is my first expedition to another country. If I lose, the consequences..."

"My minister has fought a lot of big and bad battles before, please let your majesty have a hundred hearts." Hua Yunlong was full of confidence, "If the minister can't achieve all the merits, Gaoli will be the burial place of the minister."

"Although the treasury has some money recently, it still needs to provide disaster relief, eliminate bandits, and allocate funds to encourage farming... Therefore, I can't give you too much money this time, so that you can fight for prosperity." Zhu Yuanzhang said again.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty." Hua Yunlong said, "With the army outside, can I still let the soldiers starve to death?"

The peasant uprisings of the past dynasties did not have any family background and did not farm. Where did the food and army pay for the team come from?Obviously there are many inhumane sources of income.

As long as the general does not go too far, the leader of the rebel army will turn a blind eye.

"In addition, the Daming army's expedition is to incorporate Goryeo into the Daming territory. Therefore, you can't kill the local people at will, and you can't do anything like killing captives!"

When a soldier arrives on the battlefield, his life may be lost at any time, and he will turn into a beast when he kills the red eye.They won't even blink an eye when it comes to killing tens of thousands of soldiers, and the blood stains the red river.As for the slaughter of the people, the rape of women can be seen everywhere.If I live today, I don't know if there will be soldiers of tomorrow, where is there any moral concept?

Most of the so-called teachers of benevolence and righteousness who do nothing to the common people are glorified.Not only let the soldiers go all out, but also let them be gentlemen, even thinking with their knees that it is impossible.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who had experienced wars himself, knew this, so he specifically asked.With this imperial decree, even if this situation cannot be completely eliminated, at least the soldiers can be restrained.

"The minister obeys the order!" Hua Yunlong said.

"Go down and prepare, choose another day to enter the army."

……

The ministers left the Fengtian Temple.

There was a lot of discussion on the road.

"Your Majesty's map today is really deafening." Liu Bowen said to Song Lian and sighed.

"Yeah, until today, I didn't know that my land in the Central Plains was so small." Song Lian said, "We were all blind and arrogant before, alas!" He couldn't help but sigh.

"Actually, with the arrival of overseas merchants from Persia, Dashi, Jiaozhi and other countries to Yingtianfu, we have gradually realized that there is a vast land outside the Central Plains..." Liu Bowen said, "It's just that we are still immersed in the Celestial Dynasty. In the beautiful dream of Shangguo, we refuse to admit it. Now, the map of His Majesty has made us fully recognize ourselves."

"Yes, it was His Majesty who woke us up." Song Lian said, "Brother Bowen, do you think His Majesty's map of the world was really given by the immortals in your dreams?"

"Silence!"

Liu Bowen glanced at the soldiers standing guard on both sides and said softly, and the two stopped discussing.

……

Ministry of Accounts.

"The emperor is going to fight, everyone, start preparing food and military salaries for the Hou Huayunlong of Huai'an." Lu Chang, the minister of the household, sighed, as if he was sorry that the household was about to lose a lot of money.

The household department has one minister, two servants, who are in charge of the tax burden per mu of land, and four principals, who are respectively in charge of the Duzhi, warehouse, and gold departments. There are a total of 30 officials of good grade.

Including the clerks, there are three or four hundred in total.

The troops and horses will go ahead without food and grass. Once the war is decided to start, the Ministry of Household will be busy immediately.
