In the Forbidden City of Ming Dynasty, Emperor Yongle Zhu Di sat on the dragon chair and stared scorchingly at Tang Shaozhe who was sitting next to him.Bai*Xiao*sheng (www.aoye)'s eyes were full of puzzlement, but he couldn't hide his excitement.The road to heaven?Although I don't know what it means specifically, but just by virtue of this name, Ming Chengzu innately feels extraordinary.

"What is the road to heaven?" Zhu Di's voice trembled slightly.

Due to the fact that the former master of the state had brought too many miracles, now Zhu Di felt that his trust in Tang Shaozhe was almost beyond the limit.Even when facing his most trusted monk, Yao Guangxiao, he had never felt this way before.In this special situation, Tang Shaozhe flamboyantly ignored the shape of Tang Shaozhe sitting on the chair.

Tang Shaozhe, who had long been used to sitting and chatting with Zhu Di in front of him, certainly didn't think of how great what he was doing now.The Ming Dynasty is not the Song Dynasty, and the emperor's protection of the monarchy is not comparable to other dynasties.Only the Qing Dynasty that followed was able to keep pace with the Ming Dynasty in this regard, and even surpassed it.

"The so-called road to the sky is the whole body made of steel. It is a special road that can cross mountains and ridges, cross north and south, communicate east and west, and cross the world." Tang Shaozhe has decided to spare no effort to support Zhu Di in order to build a complete Daming base.Plane Travel Guide 425

Zhu Di was stunned and said, "Oh? It's made of steel? How much steel and iron do you need?"

In the current Daming, although the iron refining technology is good, large-scale refining is still nonsense.In particular, the thinking of the Ming Dynasty still remained in the state that ironware needs to be tempered a hundred times before it can be made into steel.Originally, he was looking forward to this road to heaven, but when he heard that the whole body was made of steel, Zhu Di had no hope.

Not to mention the benefits of this road, even if all the steel and iron from the whole country are concentrated, it will not be able to build a long road.If the road is not long enough, how can we cross the north and south, communicate east and west, and cross the world?

"Your Majesty don't need to worry. Although the amount of steel needed to build the Road to Heaven is an astronomical figure for Daming, I will pay for it in advance for Your Majesty. However, the number of steel needed by the cultivation world for the Road to Heaven is not achieved overnight. I am afraid that it will take your Majesty to Like the submachine gun before, exchange it with gold." Tang Shaozhe smiled and continued to fool Zhu Di's future gold.

After Zhu Di bowed his head and thought for a while, he raised his head and said with a smile: "I don't know how the Road to Heaven connects the north and the south, and connects the east and the west? The national teacher might as well talk about it. Although I also know that the things in the upper realm of cultivation will not disappoint me, it's a pity I am really too poor now. Therefore, it is better for the national teacher to take the lead in solving the "confusion" for me. Otherwise, I am afraid that I will be powerless on this road to heaven."

Tang Shaozhe saw that the old fox was not good and refused to take the bait easily, so he continued to break the news: "The so-called road to the sky refers to the beauty of this special road. Whether it is a person or a thing, after stepping on the road to the sky, within a day You can travel thousands of miles.”

"Oh?" Zhu Di's eyes lit up immediately, but he still didn't agree.

Tang Shaozhe laughed secretly in his heart, and told all the good things, how could you be afraid that you would not take the bait?At that time, I am afraid that you are begging me to help you build the road to the sky.The gold that Daming can have in the future is already half in my hands!If I use this gold as a base, the future Daming Royal Central Bank will no longer lack credit.

But when he opened his mouth, he said something else: "Jiaozhi is the old land of the Han and Tang Dynasties in ancient times. At the end of the Han and Tang Dynasties, the local powerful vassals took advantage of the civil strife in China to separate themselves, and China lost the South China Sea. Hundreds of years have passed. And after His Majesty inherited the great rule, he resolutely sent troops to Annan and brought it back into Huaxia's pocket. I congratulate Your Majesty! Your Majesty's achievements in restoring the old land of the Han and Tang Dynasties far surpassed that of Tang Zong and Song Zu. You can't hide yourself either."

These words just scratched Zhu Di's itch.He was ambitious all his life, and his greatest wish was to surpass the famous emperor of ancient times and achieve an immortal reputation through the ages.Therefore, he led troops to expeditions many times, and fought against Mobei Mongolia.The strength of martial arts is rare in modern times.In addition, he ordered the compilation of "Yongle Dadian" in an attempt to wipe out all the writings in the world.Wenzhi is also enough to shine in the annals of history.

In this way, his martial arts and martial arts have indeed made him enough to become the lord of a generation.And he sent troops to Annan and established it as the Jiaozhi Province, and brought it back into the Chinese territory, which made him even more proud.History books describe Zhu Di as "a man of great virtue, honored by guests from all over the world, who was ordered by the court to pay tribute to almost thirty countries, with a vast territory, as far away as the Han and Tang Dynasties."

Being flattered by the ministers and being praised by the immortals are two completely different experiences for him.Although Zhu Di was elated, he remained calm on the surface, and just said indifferently: "The king of Huaxia, how can he boast of his achievements and pride in restoring his homeland?"

Tang Shaozhe smiled in his heart, he could already hear the complacency in Zhu Di's words.So he changed the subject and said: "Your Majesty's words are very true. It is inevitable for the king of Huaxia to restore his homeland. However, I heard that there was "chaos" during the rebellion during Jiaozhi. It can even be said that the corruption is so extreme that Xiyue will no longer be safe. The local tycoon thinks that he is located in a remote place, so he has a heart of contempt for China, and has repeatedly refused to obey discipline and surrender to impermanence. Your Majesty, do you have any countermeasures?"

Tang Shaozhe knew that because Jiaozhi had been separated from Huaxia for a long time, the tyrannical people among the local aborigines refused to submit at all.They always want to take advantage of the fact that China is out of reach and try to stand on their own, and then ensure that their own land is the king's family business.

However, for Zhu Di, this incident was like a thorn in his heart, and his great achievements in conquering Annan and resetting the province were always unsuccessful.Hearing Tang Shaozhe speak bluntly at this moment, although he was upset, Ming Chengzu still had a strong mouth and said, "Hmph, so what if you don't accept it? My great Ming lion is victorious in all battles, rubbing bait for the scabies, and once the heavenly soldiers arrive, we will be able to calm down overnight."

Tang Shaozhe nodded and admitted: "Your Majesty's words are true. The Ming Dynasty strengthened its army, marched far into the Han and Tang Dynasties, conquered the world, and conquered the world. However, I heard that because of the long distance between Jiaozhi and the distance between the armies, the exchange of armies was exhausting. I have repeatedly expressed dissatisfaction. Can Your Majesty guarantee that the subsequent emperors of the Ming Dynasty will be able to expand the territory and conquer the Nine Frontiers like Your Majesty?"

"En? What does the national teacher mean by this? You might as well say it clearly for me." Zhu Di's face darkened, his experience was far beyond Tang Shaozhe's comparison, and he really knew the meaning of the strings.

"Hahaha, if your majesty is a hundred years from now, if the new monarch cannot subdue the officials when he stands up, and the corruption of the cochin is too expensive, and the ministers of the court propose to give up the cochin, how does your majesty think it will end?" Tang Shaozhe directly brought out what happened in history. Question Zhu Di.

Zhu Di fell silent for a moment.Although he has a stubborn mouth, he has been sitting in the world for nearly 20 years.For some of the clichés of the ministers of the DPRK and China, I have already heard calluses in my ears.It has to be said that if what Tang Shaozhe said really happened, it would be almost inevitable that Cochin would be abandoned by the imperial court.Plane Travel Guide 425

Cochin is just too far away.Even if sending troops can quell the rebellion, the consumption on the way to and from the Ming Dynasty is completely enough to cause the cabinet as a whole to collapse and become unbearable.In an agricultural society, the ministers of the DPRK and China could not see any real benefits, and they saw that the rebellion led to boundless consumption of national power.Then Cochin's future fate is already doomed.

As we all know, war is about logistics; logistics is about comprehensive national strength.In terms of road transportation conditions in the Ming Dynasty, most of the war cost was spent on the road.The lack of sufficient means of transportation made sending troops into battle a source of collapse for every logistics minister.

To send troops to fight, we need to eat.Logistical transportation requires civilian husbands, and civilian husbands also need to eat when they are on the road.Therefore, a lot of manpower and material resources are actually consumed on the road.However, the dividends of war in the agricultural society are really not great, and it will take a long time and long-term stability to recover the cost of war.Therefore, many wars have become unnecessary.

It's not that Confucianism castrated China's martial spirit, but road transportation conditions limit such a future.Now that China has occupied the best land in East Asia, of course the Confucianists who govern the country will no longer encourage the war to continue.Confucianism is actually the best way for China to govern the country.They are actually very practical.Once the costs are calculated to outweigh the benefits, then a thing is prevented from happening.That's what war is.

Seeing that Zhu Di fell silent, Tang Shaozhe spoke again, saying, "I have a way to relieve His Majesty's worries about this matter. The biggest advantage of the road to heaven is that it is only a thousand miles away, but it will happen sooner or later. In this way, even if there is a change in the intercourse It only takes a few days to mobilize soldiers and horses from outside the customs to go back and forth on the road to the sky. In the future, the Ming Dynasty will achieve the prestige of the empire on which the sun never sets, and the road to the sky is even more necessary."

"Hiss!" Zhu Di gasped after hearing the words, stood up directly after thinking about it, and said in disbelief: "The national teacher means crossing mountains and ridges, crossing north and south, communicating east and west, and crossing the world? In one day Can you travel thousands of miles away? Even if you mobilize soldiers and horses from outside the customs to go to Jiaozhi, it will only take a few days? Is this true?"

"Of course!" Tang Shaozhe threw out the most important and full-bodied temptation in the next step, saying: "In this way, there will be no more dangers and endless waste on the road. On the road to heaven, food, fodder and supplies The consumption is almost equivalent to nothing. For the vast Ming Dynasty, the road to the sky is no less than an artifact."

At this moment, Zhu Di completely forgot about his status as emperor, and couldn't help standing in front of Tang Shaozhe.The situation on the scene suddenly became that the national teacher was still sitting in a grandiose manner, but the emperor stood in front of the national teacher with great interest.

"If this road is completed, I will have no worries in the future! Even if it becomes an empire on which the sun never sets, I will no longer have to worry about the world and the world. If the national teacher can really complete this road, I will follow the country tomorrow." Teachers are free to come and go, you can ask me for any conditions." After finishing speaking, I remembered something, and added: "Unless you want the throne, the rest of the conditions are free to ask!"

Now Zhu Di doesn't look like an old man at all.He couldn't contain his excitement.Emperor Yongle, who has conquered the world for many years, deeply knows the power of this so-called "Road to Heaven".Not to mention that this road can cross mountains and ridges, cross north and south, communicate east and west, and cross the world, but the advantage of avoiding wasteful roads is enough for Zhu Di to make up his mind.

"If it weren't for the huge amount of steel consumed by this road, it would be difficult to gather the iron of Kyushu. I really plan to give it to His Majesty and Daming. Unfortunately, even if the steel of the cultivation world is gathered, it will be difficult to get it out in a short time. Therefore, I I really need His Majesty to promise me one thing. However, one thing is enough."

"It doesn't matter what the teacher said!" As long as he didn't want the emperor's dragon chair, Zhu Di didn't care about other rewards at all.
