Ming Dynasty: He was ordered to give lectures in prison, but Lao Zhu eavesdropped and made people nu

Chapter 305 The Ming vassal kings expand overseas

I didn’t expect that in this era, there would be such a monster who was born to colonize.

Zhu Bai faced Lin Che's praise.

He chuckled sheepishly and said, "Sir, I was also blind based on what you said."

"There are still many imperfections in it, such as disrupting its vassal states and forcing them to open up territory elsewhere."

"If things are exposed in the future, these vassal congresses will not bite the Ming Dynasty back."

Zhu Bai spoke modestly.

However, the question he raised hit home.

With the current capabilities of the Ming Dynasty, it is easy to disrupt a vassal country.

The difficult thing is how to ensure their loyalty after getting them overseas in the future.

Inside the secret room.

Fu Youwen heard Zhu Bai's tirade.

She was shocked at first, Lin Che had a long-term vision.

Then he bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang and congratulated him: "Your Majesty, King Xiang will definitely be a good vassal king in the future."

Zhu Yuanzhang proudly twirled his beard and smiled without saying a word.

Although he didn't speak, everyone could feel the joy in his heart.

After all, today is different from the past, after Lin Che opened the magic box of colonization.

The world is no longer limited to the nine states of China.

Although the Ming Dynasty has not officially begun, Lin Che described the wave of overseas expansion.

However, judging from what Lin Che said just now, she wanted to entrust the Ming Dynasty vassal kings to also be enfeoffed.

The more smart children there are in the royal family now, the more overseas fiefdoms the Ming Dynasty will be able to hold in the future.

Otherwise, you will spend a lot of time and effort and carve out a group of fools who only know how to eat, drink and have fun.

Those who are better may die in the hands of barbarians.

If they encounter spineless people, they might surrender to those Europa barbarians.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly turned his attention to Zhu Biao who was recording.

He said coldly: "In the future, the royal vassals of the Ming Dynasty will expand overseas. If they encounter strong enemies and fail to survive, they will be defeated."

"The vassal kings who are near their fiefdoms can become my great master to eliminate harm. Those who succeed can obtain their fiefdoms unconditionally."

Because among the descendants of later generations, there has already been a weakling who went to Wala to study abroad.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not think that there was no similar existence among the descendants of the vassal kings.

Therefore, they used land as bait to encourage the descendants of the Ming royal family to explore overseas in the future, not to show mercy to those weaklings.

Although the rules set by Zhu Yuanzhang will lead to certain vassal kings in the future.

In nearby fiefdoms, they stood idly by in the face of crisis.

Let the other party's fiefdom be invaded by barbarians and eventually become prisoners.

Wait until the barbarians return after a great victory.

Then gather the army to eliminate the blood brothers and the brutal barbarians.

Incorporate the territory that they have developed for a long time into their own territory.

There is no doubt that there will definitely be a feudal king.

He would do this evil act of annexing his brother's land under the guise of barbarians.

Although this move will cause everyone overseas to feel in danger.

Reduce the level of trust in the brothers around you.

However, this is better than having another descendant of the Zhu family captured by barbarians and taken to be foreign students.

Moreover, this strategy can also be used in disguise to force a group of vassal kings to strengthen their troops.

So that the fiefdom that you worked so hard to build will not end up being advantageous to other brothers.

If he loses his life, he will be accused of being a thief.

Zhu Biao was jumped by this imperial edict.

He wanted to persuade Zhu Yuanzhang to change his mind.

Don't set such harsh rules for those vassal kings who will open up territories for the Ming Dynasty in the future.

As a result, after coming into contact with Zhu Yuanzhang's cold gaze. Zhu Biao instantly understood why his father issued this edict.

The reason is that among his future grandsons, there is an unsatisfactory Ming God of War.

Ever since, he no longer had the thought of admonishing.

Zhu Yuanzhang urged Zhu Biao to record his will.

He turned to Fu Youwen and asked about the question Zhu Bai had just raised.

"Fu Aiqing, if Goryeo is moved overseas in the future, how do you think we can guarantee their loyalty to the Ming Dynasty?"

If we talk about economic means, Goryeo will be destroyed.

Fu Youwen can also think of at least three effective methods.

But after destroying Goryeo, they still have to be dogs for the Ming Dynasty.

It's really not what he, the Minister of Household Affairs, is good at.

Fu Youwen racked his brains, but he could only come up with an unconfident answer.

"Your Majesty, according to what Mr. Lin said, between countries, interests come first."

"If you want to make Goryeo, who moved to the vassal state, loyal to the Ming Dynasty, the best way is to lure it with benefits."

"As long as the Ming Dynasty keeps purchasing Goryeo's special products at prices higher than the market price, it can maintain their loyalty."

Although this strategy has merit.

However, to Zhu Yuanzhang's ears, it was not as eye-catching as the economic war just now.

He complimented Fu Youwen a few words.

Then he turned his attention to Liu Bowen, who was still kneeling on the ground listening to the lecture.

But before he could ask, whether the other party still had misunderstandings.

Lin Che's voice sounded in the next room.

"You are right. How to maintain loyalty to the Ming Dynasty in vassal states that have moved overseas is indeed the most important issue."

"For many small countries that have surrendered to our Ming Dynasty, their loyalty has always been limited."

"As I said just now, they are now treating me as dogs of the Ming Dynasty, but they are just taking advantage of the powerful army of the Ming Dynasty."

"If the Ming Dynasty declines in the future, the loyalty of these small countries will be transferred to other powerful forces, and they may even turn around and bite me, the Ming Dynasty."

Just like Goryeo in history.

When the Ming Dynasty was strong, it swept away the arrogant Bei Yuan.

Gao Li rushed to be a dog for Ming Dynasty.

After the rise of the Tatars, Goryeo was defeated in two or three blows.

Then he obeyed him very much and followed the Tatars to fight against the Ming Dynasty.

I'm just afraid that Ming Dynasty will calm down and settle accounts with them.

Therefore, Goryeo did a gimmick to observe filial piety in the Ming Dynasty.

It's a pity that until the rise of the Japanese slaves, China had no chance to teach Goryeo, this unfilial son.

So much so that Goryeo once skillfully recognized a thief as his father.

"Sir, what you mean is that if Goryeo is moved to a vassal state in the future."

"Need to entrust a few powerful vassal kings to suppress them near their new vassal state?"

Based on what Lin Che said, Zhu Xi came up with a method that he believed was the best way to suppress Gao Li and not have any dissatisfaction with Ming Dynasty.

"Suppression by force can only gain temporary loyalty."

Lin Che shook her head and said: "If you want Gaoli to be stable for a long time, be my dog ​​to Daming."

"The simplest way is to directly control the food lifeline of Goryeo after leaving it as a vassal."

"At the same time, the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty are still allowed to rule the country, but they are not allowed to get rid of the loyal and loyal people who resisted in the court."

As long as the food supply of Goryeo is always in the hands of Ming Dynasty.

So someone who intends to devour the master today will be beheaded by hungry soldiers the next day.

As for.

Let the remnant of the Northern Yuan Dynasty continue to be the king of Goryeo.

So the Goryeo royal family wants to cause civil strife in the country and everyone is shouting about their identity as the remaining remnant.

If you want to continue to hold the position of King of Korea, you can only completely grovel at the feet of Ming Dynasty.
