Daming Greedy Wolf Star

Chapter 223 Obedience, Survive

Once Nanzhang was destroyed, only the weakest Khmer and Cham countries were left in the entire Indochina Peninsula.

Oh, by the way, there is also Malaka, which occupies the end of the Malay Peninsula.

When the news reached Yingtian, everyone was silent. Only Zhu Di immediately sent an edict to the Guardian King of Wuszangdusi.

The destruction of Nanzhang and the wipeout of the Nanzhang royal family were blamed on Kunzhaxi, the commander of the Uzzandusi army.

Zhu Di immediately asked the Guardian King to severely punish Kunzhaxi for mobilizing troops without authorization, but as for what kind of severe punishment, only the Guardian King himself knew.

Yingtian City is boiling again. Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty by Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, the territory of the Ming Dynasty has been so vast for the first time...

No, it can no longer be counted from the founding of the Ming Dynasty. It should be that there has never been such a vast territory in the entire history of the Central Plains.

While the people were talking about this matter enthusiastically, the civil servants seemed very silent.

Now they are clear that Zhu Zhanhe's rise is unstoppable, because Zhu Di is an ambitious emperor, he dreams of doing things that Emperor Gaozu couldn't do, because in this way he can survive in a hundred years. After that, he had the nerve to go see his ancestors and get forgiveness for the issue.

From building the Jingguan on the grassland to burning Jiaozhi, to massacring the Japanese country, Zhu Di acted as a blind man and a deaf man every time. This has allowed the civil servants to see Zhu Di's attitude.

They also tried hard, but the result was that they lost many backbones such as Xie Jin and Huang Huai, and even Hu Guang was forced to return to his hometown to retire.

When Sukhothai was massacred, the civil servants also thought about whether to make a final struggle, but after much deliberation, they gave up.

It's not that they don't want to struggle, it's because they can't find a suitable reason.

Every time Zhu Zhanhe mobilized troops, there were reasonable enough reasons, which made it difficult for civil servants to find an entry point.

Are you saying that Zhu Zhanhe's indiscriminate killings have greatly ruined the reputation of the Great Tomorrow Kingdom?

This has been used before, and the cost was that the civil service camp lost several Wenyuan Pavilion bachelors, as well as several pillars of various departments.

Are you saying that Zhu Zhanhe violated the precepts of his ancestors and attacked the country that Taizu Emperor Gao had decided not to conquer?
It doesn't work either.

At the beginning, Zhu Yuanzhang did indeed decide on the so-called country without conquest, but with the end of the Hongwu Dynasty, many countries were replaced or destroyed. As for the rest...

Annan, Japan, Siam, Nanzhang, etc. that Zhu Zhanhe destroyed were all countries that Zhu Yuanzhang had decided not to conquer, but was it useful?
Annan had repeatedly invaded Yunnan, and Zhu Di personally ordered the conquest.

It was also because of the Japanese invasion that the Japanese invaded. Zhu Di summoned Zhu Zhanhe to Beijing and asked him to choose between the grasslands and the Japanese.

As for Siam and Nanzhang...

When Zhu Zhanhe launched troops against Siam, Siam's elephant troops crossed the Lancang River and pointed at Laowosi. Not only did Ming Dynasty lose control of [-] Dadiansi, but even Laowosi was in danger.

Is Zhu Zhanhe acting recklessly and sending troops to attack the land of no conquest set by Emperor Taizu Gao?
No, it was forced to accept the war and conquer a disobedient country that violated the rules.

The last Nanzhang is even better to say, it has nothing to do with Zhu Zhanhe!Kunzhaxi did it!

Therefore, after several discussions, when the civil servant faced Zhu Zhanhe, he felt like he was facing a hedgehog rolling around in a ball.

He will hurt you from time to time, but you are defenseless and there is nothing you can do against him.

However, the civil servants did not expect that this was not the end that left them helpless or even dumbfounded.

On the third day of June in the 14th year of Yongle, the Khmer and Cham countries jointly submitted a letter to the Ming Dynasty, requesting it to be attached.

There was an uproar between the ruling and opposition parties, and the civilian camp was even more severely impacted.

For a long time, Confucian scholars have been preaching to govern the country with benevolence and influence the foreign barbarians with benevolence and righteousness. This situation has continued since the founding of the Ming Dynasty and reached a peak when Zhu Di was in trouble.

Because he was not in the right position, Zhu Di could only choose this method.

But now, people have discovered that it is not the rule of benevolence that can make the barbarians surrender, but force can also be used.

Moreover, using force seems to be more efficient.

Think about the three guards of Wuliangha before. They had crossed the border many times to graze their herds, and even dared to go to Daning City, the military center of the Ming Dynasty. How courageous were they?

Later, Emperor Yongle went on a personal expedition and used the simple and crude method proposed by Zhu Zhanhe to directly wipe out the nobles of the three guards of Wuliangha. From then on, the three guards of Wuliangha were ruled by officials sent by the imperial court. I'm at peace.

Not to mention the Japanese country. Not only did the Ming Dynasty never have Japanese troubles again, Iwami Yinshan also provided the Ming Dynasty with an income of one million taels of silver every year.

Now, it is the turn of Champa and Khmer.

Just when everyone in the government and the public was celebrating, and the court was about to issue an edict agreeing to the Champa Kingdom and its annexation, things suddenly came to a standstill.

Yingtian Mansion, Imperial Palace, Qianqing Palace.

"What do you think?"

Zhu Di looked at his eldest son and the few remaining cabinet bachelors and asked.

The source of this problem is in his hand, which is a memorial sent by Zhu Zhanhe from Sukhotai.

San Yang, Jin Youzi and others in the cabinet all lowered their heads without saying a word. Zhu Gaochi also stood aside and twirled his chin, not knowing what he was thinking.

The reason for their silence was that they didn't know what to do because of what Zhu Zhanhe wrote in the memorial.

Now the whole court is waiting for Ming to agree to the Champa Kingdom and Nanzhang, so that the territory of Ming can reach an unprecedented level in the history of the Han dynasty, but Zhu Zhanhe puts forward different opinions.

Zhu Zhanhe's view is very simple, the so-called attachment is just delaying time, and the final result is to let them self-govern, which is no different from before.

Just lowering their heads gave them a chance to survive, waiting for the Ming Dynasty to weaken and plot bigger things again. This was too cheap for them.

Therefore, Zhu Zhanhe suggested that it is okay to be attached, but all officials should be removed and the Ming Dynasty would send people to govern. The army should also be disbanded and handed over to the Ming Dynasty. From then on, whether troops were sent from the court or recruited locally by the court, the capital and Khmer It has nothing to do with the Champa royal family.

In the end, the royal family of Khmer and Champa moved to Yingtianfu, or a place designated by the court, and no longer enjoyed the title and privileges of the royal family.

To sum it up, two words, too much.

From the point of view of civil servants, people raised their hands and surrendered and attached themselves to the country. If you are not satisfied, you still want to make people change from a king to a minister, or a minister who has no fart rights. Isn't that too much?

But in Zhu Zhanhe's view, this is called the attachment of the whole country.

Like the three guards of Wuliangha in the past and Wala now, what do you call Neifu?Just asking for a detour, Ming Dynasty recognized this good guy.

The army is organized by oneself, the officials are selected by oneself, and the government is managed by oneself. Every year, a pile of rags are exchanged for real gold and silver rewards from the Ming Dynasty, and at the same time, they also enjoy the discounts and benefits of the mutual market.

Is that a shitty attachment?That means it bites you and sucks your blood!

Not only sucking blood, but when you are exhausted and have no strength, they will still want to eat your flesh!Not even the bones are left!
The incompatibility between cognition and decision-making, coupled with Zhu Zhanhe's strength and previous losses, how can civil servants express their opinions?

They have opinions, but as soon as they said it, they directly confronted Zhu Zhanhe. As far as it is now, who dares?

Jie Jin and others have no choice, but you can ask Hu Guang, who resigned and returned home, and ask him to tell you what the consequences will be if you have a fight with Zhu Zhan.

"No one has an opinion?"

Zhu Di glanced around in surprise, as if he didn't expect it at all.

"In that case..." Zhu Di straightened his body and took the jade seal on the side.

"Prince Wu made a suggestion and no one objects, so just do what Prince Wu said."

After saying that, the big seal in his hand slowly covered the edict, leaving a bright red mark.

-

Xiangzhou Mansion.

Seeing that everything has been repaired and only Sukhothai of the original Siam Palace is left, I feel very satisfied.

He actually doesn't care about the affairs of the Khmer and Cham countries.

Because even if the court agrees, he still has a way to solve the matter, but the difference is that it will take a long time.

Besides, Zhu Zhanhe is still confident.

He knew that his grandfather was an ambitious emperor. Especially after tasting the benefits of the three guards of Wuliangha, the old man could not wait to do this to all the countries around the Ming Dynasty.

Before, the old man was only limited by his reputation and could not speak out on his own. Now that someone is speaking up, and they can still control the officials, how could the old man not take advantage of the opportunity?

"His Royal Highness!"

Zhu Ping was left behind in Vientiane City, and now Zhu Ling was the only one left by Zhu Zhanhe's side. Almost everything went through Zhu Ling's hands before being sent to Zhu Zhanhe.

"Jian Xiao sent news that the people sent by Timur Empire have passed Manlajia and are coming towards us."

"Oh?" Zhu Zhanhe raised his eyebrows, and the expression on his face became playful.

"Send someone to send a message to Chonburi and Biwuli to get them ready, and I will personally send someone to pick them up."

"Yes!"

Looking at the south, Zhu Zhanhe's face showed a smile full of meaning, and at the same time he was also somewhat sincerely happy.

Before, he had said that 1000 people from Timur's empire would be handed over to Zhu Sanfeng, and now it's finally here.

On the way back to Yunnan, he once asked Zhu Sanfeng how he wanted to deal with it. Although Zhu Zhanhe also knew that this would reopen Zhu Sanfeng's scabbed wound, it had to be done.

Because, at that time, he was not actually asking Zhu Sanfeng what he wanted to do, but was conveying a message to Zhu Sanfeng.

Think about it, Zhu Zhanhe is the master, and Zhu Sanfeng has no official title, so he can only be said to be Zhu Zhanhe's subordinate. What Zhu Zhanhe wants to do, just inform Zhu Sanfeng directly, so why bother? Go ask?

Since you have asked, you are not asking, but telling Zhu Sanfeng that you can handle it however you want.

The old blood scabs do not fall off and bleed from time to time, so we can only peel them off. Although the process is painful, some good medicine can be applied to make the wound heal faster and more thoroughly.

　Sorry for the late update.

I had surgery for tenosynovitis yesterday. Although it was minimally invasive, it still had some effects.

After I got home, I coded more than 3000. My partner saw it after get off work and unplugged the adapter cable from my computer monitor. He also scolded me and said he didn’t want my hand anymore...

Today the anesthetic has worn off and I can only code with my left hand. My efficiency is a bit slow. Please forgive me.

Ten thousand words are offered.
