People in the Ming Dynasty are lawless

Chapter 131 The Ming army goes out to conquer the Japanese slaves!The big knife was slashed at the devil's head!

Zhu Youwei excitedly took the telescope given by Chen Han.

"Why did you give it to me? Grandpa Huang said this thing is very precious." Zhu Youwei said.

Chen Han smiled: "You stood by my side unswervingly when I needed you most. If I can't give you the best, then you're not even a man."

Zhu Youwei burst into tears after hearing this.

Zhu Youwei took Chen Han's telescope and put it away like a treasure. I know, I will definitely cherish it.

Then Chen Han looked at Zhu Yuanzhang: "Your Majesty, you have seen it now.

The scientific approach I advocate is more practical than Confucianism.

Perhaps their theories can establish the moral values ​​of the people.

But the scientific approach I advocate can help people live a better life.

It can even help the Ming Dynasty move towards a more prosperous path.

This is just a little trick. When the time comes, I will definitely make more things that will impress you.

I will also bring out more students. "

As he spoke, he looked at the more than 200 students behind him.

Everyone's eyes are filled with enthusiastic gazes.

Even Zhu Gaochi, even Zhu Yunxi and other clan members, after seeing the glass and telescope made by Chen Han, firmly believed in one thing.

What the predecessors said is the Midas touch that turns stone into gold, in the hands of my husband, it really shines as it should.

For a time, they became more and more interested in the scientific method proposed by Chen Han.

Especially the sons of craftsmen, they now finally understand why Chen Han summoned them all.

It's because their hands-on ability and their ability to understand what Chen Han is making now are more thorough than those Confucian students who are immersed in the Four Books and Five Classics.

Thinking of this, these students all became excited.

Zhu Yuanzhang saw the telescope held by Chen Han.

Zhu Yuanzhang held the telescope handed over by Chen Han in his hand and patted Chen Han on the shoulder, "Go and do your best. From now on, this Ming Dynasty will be dominated by young people like you."

Chen Han smiled and continued: "Your Majesty, I will leave the glass formula in Liulichang. I hope you can order the craftsmen to make more glass.

When the time comes, I will select more of them to make telescopes, not only so that the soldiers who go to the Wonunan court this time can have telescopes like clairvoyance to use, but also
We must also let each of our frontier commanders have a share.

It even allows the soldiers on the watchtower to see farther through the telescope, allowing them to discover more about the enemy and take the initiative in the war. "

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed loudly, "We thought the same way just now. This clairvoyance-like telescope is simply even more powerful when used to observe the enemy's situation.

If this is used to observe the enemy's situation at the border, wouldn't it be possible to gain early insight into the enemy's movements?

We are from a fighting background, and every insight into the opponent's movements gives our army a better chance of victory.

Not to mention your clairvoyance, you can see every move of the opponent from a thousand meters away. With this good thing, you can be several steps ahead in the battle.

Well, this contribution is greater than the flying shuttle loom and the spinning jenny you made. "

Chen Han shook his head, "Your Majesty, you can't say that..."

But Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head: "No, in your opinion, increasing the weaving speed will be better for the people in the future.

However, we believe that letting our soldiers make arrangements in advance, improving their chances of winning and reducing their sacrifices, is the real national plan.

This thing must be made in large quantities. "

Then he immediately ordered the eunuch next to him to pass on his oral instructions to the Ministry of Works.

Ask them to record clearly the glass formula given by Chen Han, the telescope manufacturing technology given by Chen Han, and the data mentioned by Chen Han, and they must be implemented.

After everyone came out, they found that it was already dawn outside.

At first, everyone was so focused on waiting for Chen Han to finish his work that they didn't even notice that it was already dawn outside.

But no one felt sleepy at all, but in high spirits.

Chen Han, on the other hand, rushed straight to the Beijing camp where Mu Ying was staying with the telescope he had just completed.

When the telescope was in Mu Ying's hand, Mu Ying was still surprised.

Chen Han taught Mu Ying the method on the side.

Mu Ying was surprised to hear that this small object could allow her to clearly see objects 1000 meters away.

He quickly took the telescopic telescope and slowly adjusted the telescopic distance according to what Chen Han said.

At a glance, from the observation deck, he saw the expressions on the faces of the soldiers on the training ground more than a thousand meters away.

"This this this..."

After Mu Ying saw this situation, she was immediately surprised.

“You can really see it, you can really see it, you can really see this thing.

Mr. Chen, you are truly a god! !

This telescope really lives up to its name!
This should be what the immortals call clairvoyance.

It is indeed clairvoyance! "

As she spoke, Mu Ying took a telescope and started looking around.

He looked around at his soldiers training below.

Mu Ying was very surprised: "I finally know why you said yesterday that you were going to make something that would shock us all, and you did it.

This thing is really shocking. If this thing is used on the battlefield, wouldn't it be able to predict the enemy first? "

What Chen Han wanted was this effect, "Mu Shuai, this time we are going to send a thousand soldiers to the Japanese slaves in the Southern Dynasties to help them fight. We must give our soldiers better equipment.

Let me take this thing to the Japanese slaves first. Then I will make it in large quantities.

A commander like you must have one. "

Mu Ying couldn't put it down and held the monocular telescope. She originally wanted to keep it in her hands.

But when Chen Han said that he wanted those soldiers to be used by the Southern Court, Mu Ying agreed: "Yes, yes, we must let our soldiers show their momentum on the Japanese slaves.

This is the first time that our trained musketeers have fought in such a distant place. "

The telescope arrived soon. This one was in the hands of General Zhao Shenyan, who was going to expedition against the Japanese slaves.

Zhao Shenyan is a general promoted by Mu Ying. He is 35 years old, calm and resourceful.

When he got this clairvoyant telescope and heard Mu Ying's hopes for them and the court's expectations for them, they were all extremely excited.

……

The first day of June in the 24th year of Hongwu.

Zhao Shenyan and the others followed the envoy of the Japanese Nunan court, Matsushita Jingjiro, across the sea.

Before leaving, Chen Han gave them a chart and told them to mark various weather and wind directions, undercurrents, etc. on the chart.

Mu Ying personally sent them to the ship and gave them a secret order.

Zhao Shenyan and the others were a little surprised after hearing this, but they were very excited.

His dispatched army this time included not only soldiers, but also several coastal people who had gone to sea.

They were experienced and experienced, and all of them had traveled across the ocean to Southeast Asia before the establishment of the Ming Dynasty.

The main purpose of having them on board was to help Daming cross the ocean this time and record the ocean conditions, monsoon undercurrents, etc. along the way.

This time, in addition to the musketeers, they actually also pulled three general cannons.

The barrel of this artillery is 1.2 meters long, made of copper, and weighs five to six hundred kilograms.

However, the artillery in the early Ming Dynasty was not very capable in field combat, but it was okay in siege. It fired solid iron bullets.

Perhaps it was because the time to go to sea was relatively smooth, with a smooth wind all the way, and because these Japanese slaves were familiar with the route.

After fifteen days, we arrived at the Tosa Kingdom of the Japanese Nunan Chaoting.

At this time, everyone in the Southern Court was as anxious as ants on a hot pot.There is no other reason than that they have lost three important cities and a pass in the past month.

Among the three thousand troops sent by Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, there were actually more than 500 highly skilled martial artists.

In every battle, this group of warriors acted as the vanguard.

Because these warriors had experienced many battles, they had sophisticated weapons and strong martial arts, and they defeated the Southern Dynasty.

In the past month of fighting, Nanchaoting was retreating step by step.

Seeing that the country was about to be destroyed, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's dispatched troops played with them like monkeys.

It does not annex them all at once, but requires them to obediently hand over the three major artifacts that are as symbolic as jade seals.

These southern conquering armies of the Northern Dynasty were like cats playing with mice. They did not kill all the Southern Dynasty troops every time, but they created a terrifying force wherever they went and massacred people in order to force the Southern Dynasty to surrender. This was also Ashikaga Yoshimitsu. A common tactic.

Emperor Gogameyama was in his palace, jumping up and down anxiously every day, and the corners of his mouth were blistering because of the heat.

But all his ministers were helpless.

His soldiers also did not dare to fight because of their terrifying aura.

The whole country was in a state of depression.

Many civil servants even persuaded him to offer the three artifacts to prevent the Southern Dynasty from being massacred by the whole country.

But there are also many ministers who insist that they can never donate the three artifacts.

Because the emperor in the north is basically a puppet in the hands of the Ashikaga Yoshimitsu family.

Giving away the three great artifacts is like wiping out the Emperor's roots.

Ashikaga Yoshimitsu will never be his shogun when the time comes.

He might even oust the emperor and make himself king.

If this is the case, their sin is huge.

It is necessary to mention here that in the hearts of Japanese slaves, the emperor is of the same blood.

It is the so-called Amaterasu's bloodline, which cannot be tarnished.

So even today's little devils still think that their emperor's blood is very pure.

They would rather marry close relatives than let the blood of common people taint their noble blood of the emperor, so they gave birth to many mentally retarded children.

This is also one of the reasons why the Southern Dynasty is unwilling to surrender.

Of course the people behind surrendered.

It's just that it hasn't reached this level yet, so they want to persevere.

At this critical moment, Matsushita Ijiro, who went to the Ming Dynasty as an envoy and returned with a very humiliating treaty, finally brought a glimmer of good news.

That means Ming Dynasty's aid has arrived.

While the whole country was waiting, Panasonic said that there were only 1000 reinforcements.

The little devils in the Southern Dynasty were all extremely angry.

Emperor Kameyama became even more furious and cursed Panasonic until his head was bloody.

"I asked you to go to the Ming Dynasty with such a humiliating treaty, but you only brought 1000 reinforcements. This is humiliating.

You actually look happy, it's simply unseemly. "

The ministers even wanted to drag Matsushita Ijiro out and behead him.

Fortunately, Matsushita remained calm: "Your Majesty and colleagues, you may not know that these 1000 people are by no means just a thousand soldiers.

Wei Chen saw with his own eyes the weapons they used at their training ground, which were firearms, and the formations they used were unprecedented and unprecedented.

They will definitely be able to make great achievements. Your Majesty, please believe me. If these 1000 people cannot make great achievements for the court this time, you will chop off Wei Chen's head. Wei Chen will have absolutely no objection. "

At this moment, there were scouts outside, rushing in hurriedly, "Your Majesty, the three thousand troops of the traitorous Ashikaga Shogunate have already approached our capital.

General Doihara from the front reported that if he didn't think of a way out, he might be in danger. "

The civil and military ministers were immediately panicked when they heard this, and there was a lively quarrel in the palace.

A large number of people decided to surrender.

He even quoted scriptures and said that the surrender now was to Emperor Gokomatsu of the Northern Dynasty, not to the Ashikaga Shogunate.

However, many ministers said that it was actually the same thing, just with a different name.

In the end, Emperor Gogeyama could only treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor, and decided to let the Ming Dynasty dispatch troops to fight for it this time.

Originally, after traveling across the ocean and arriving at the Japanese Nuan Dynasty for so long, I thought I should rest for a while.

But when something like this happened, General Zhao Shenyan didn't intend to just give up the opportunity to make a splash.

So he led 1000 people and left the city directly.

It was only discovered when his 1000 people arrived near the so-called Gyeonggi Province.

The imperial city of the Southern Dynasties and the territory they occupied were no more than a few counties in the Ming Dynasty.

In just half a day's stroll on a fast horse, you can inspect all their territories.

The scouts from the front came to report that the Ashikaga Southern Expedition was not far away.

After Zhao Shenyan and his lieutenants observed the situation, they established their position on a slope two miles away from the royal city.

Going down from the high slope, there is an open small plain.

Just as they formed their formation, the opponent's so-called three thousand elite soldiers were already coming in force.

Zhao Shenyan took out the telescope Chen Han gave him and looked over the high slope.

On the unobstructed small plain, the opponent's 3000 troops were like stragglers.

Except for the hundred or so cavalry on horseback and the five hundred more regular soldiers with simple armors in front.

The remaining 2000 or so people are basically no different from militiamen.

There are also many kinds of weapons in his hands, such as spears, horse spears, etc.

Is this what they call the Northern and Southern Dynasties?
Is this the so-called elite soldier?
I guess the so-called elite soldiers are the five or six hundred soldiers wearing helmets.

It can be seen from the telescope that the Japanese swords held by the armored soldiers are as tall as them.

A group of dwarfs were like human-shaped waves, slowly pushing over.

They were not moving very fast, and they were in a loose formation, laughing and joking, not like fighting, but more like going shopping.

The cavalry also marched confidently from the reins.

It is estimated that the previous war was fought so smoothly that these Northern Dynasty troops did not take the Southern Dynasty seriously at all.

But Zhao Shenyan did not take it lightly at all, but was ready to go.

And the Ming army also knew that the first battle in the Southern Dynasties had to be fought, otherwise it would be a disgrace to the Ming Dynasty.

Emperor Gokuyama led his civil and military ministers and stood on the wall of the royal city, looking from a distance, feeling gloomy in his heart.

One thousand against three thousand, and the opponent is an elite soldier. Even though the Ming army is tall and powerful, it cannot resist the opponent's large number.

Moreover, the other party was burning, killing, and looting all the way, and their morale was high.

This time they wanted to surround the royal city and force themselves to hand over the three artifacts.

Seeing this, all of them gave up hope, and some ministers even said pessimistically: "Your Majesty, I suggest you abandon the capital and flee to the sea.

The minister didn't believe that Ashikaga Yoshimitsu could really kill everyone. "

Another minister said: "What Mr. Sado said is true. Your Majesty, let's avoid the edge.

While there are people from the Ming Dynasty who can help us block them, we have time to evacuate before they are completely wiped out. "

Matsushita Ijiro felt really sad when he saw how timid these people were.

However, he is particularly confident in the Thousand Ming Army this time...
