"This matter needs to start from the old Tartar witch I told Your Majesty and the Prince last time..."
In the side hall, after sorting out his thoughts, Han Cheng looked at the three people and began to talk about this uncomfortable history.
“At that time, the Japanese country was also bombarded by powerful ships and cannons from the West. They called it the Black Ship Incident.
Later, Japan experienced a series of internal changes.
Being beaten up by the West, they began to kneel on the ground and call daddy, and tried their best to deny themselves, and began to carry out comprehensive westernization...
After some time of development, they began to set their sights on the mainland.
And they have made ambitious plans to conquer the land of China and more places in Asia with an island country.
They first imitated the original black ship incident and pointed the finger at our Chinese vassal state, Goryeo.
Seize it and start killing our troops...
…
During the Sino-Japanese War of 1894, national hero Deng Shichang sacrificed his life for righteousness and fought desperately against the enemy.
When its battleship Zhiyuan was severely damaged and tilted, it crashed into the flagship of the Japanese fleet at full speed, determined to die with it!
Unfortunately, the torpedo tube was hit by the enemy, causing the hull to burst and sink. The entire ship burst and sank. More than two hundred officers and soldiers all died heroically for their country..."
…
"Later, the thieves and bandits made various attempts to sign twenty-one treaties that would destroy China and humiliate the country..."
In the side hall, Han Cheng's voice kept ringing, briefly telling Zhu Yuanzhang and others about the crimes committed by the Japanese country.
After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang's mood was no longer as indifferent as before.
His face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, his breathing was rapid, and his chest was rising and falling.
"Has this thing been signed?!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's suppressed voice of endless anger sounded, and he asked Han Cheng about this matter, and his fists clenched involuntarily.
Han Chengdao: "It was originally planned to be signed, but later when the news was revealed, it triggered a series of huge social reactions.
First, a large number of young people from universities took to the streets to actively speak and demonstrate, demanding abolition... They shouted loudly that the country was destroyed! Compatriots, stand up! !
Subsequently, this national salvation movement quickly spread from the capital to many parts of the country.
It triggered the support of countless people with lofty ideals, students went on strike, workers went on strike..."
Speaking of this, Han Cheng became excited and his eyes were a little moist.
"good!!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang slapped Zhu Di's thigh fiercely and cheered loudly!
"We knew it! We knew it!!
Well done to our Chinese son! !
Although there is scum, there are also shit stirrups! There is a coward! But in times of crisis, there are always large numbers of people with lofty ideals who stand up and fight to save the day! ! !
good! Very good! ! ! "
There was no wine at this time. If there was wine, Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely drink a big bowl!
Zhu Di was so slapped by Zhu Yuanzhang that he grimaced.
In the past, after receiving this slap, Zhu Di would definitely stay away from his father immediately.
To avoid being taken care of again by his father who suddenly became emotional.
But this time, Zhu Di did not leave. Instead, he moved his other leg closer to his father.
It’s so convenient for me to take pictures of myself again when my dad gets emotional!
Zhu Di felt it was worth it to be photographed by his father because of such a thing!
If his father hadn't already clapped his legs and praised loudly, Zhu Di couldn't help but clapped his legs and cheered loudly at this time!
"These bandits will directly launch troops to invade our three northeastern provinces and establish puppet states there...
Later, they used the disappearance of a soldier as an excuse to launch an incident and began to invade a large amount of our territory in northern China!
In the occupied areas, they committed all kinds of unscrupulous acts, burned, killed, looted, and massacred unarmed innocent people in large numbers...
All kinds of massacres...
Later, a brutal killing was carried out here in Yingtian!
Three hundred thousand!
Three hundred thousand compatriots..."
"boom!!!"
After Han Cheng's voice fell, Zhu Yuanzhang took a few deep breaths, stood up suddenly, rushed to where Han Cheng placed the table, picked up a chair, and smashed it on the ground!
One of them was still not relieved, and after smashing several chairs and a table to pieces, Zhu Yuanzhang was still breathing heavily.
My chest is rising and falling rapidly!
The blood in my eyes has not faded even a little!
"Damn! These Japanese pirates deserve to die!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's voice was cold, and his murderous intent shot straight into the sky!
"Even if there is an ocean blocking it, it won't work! This Japanese country will be destroyed by us!!!"
"Father is right! The Japanese pirates must be suppressed! The Japanese country must be destroyed! It won't work without suppressing it!!"
Zhu Biao, the prince who always looked gentle and elegant, now had a layer of frost covering his face.
The words he spoke were like ice knives!
"Father! Please give me your order! I am willing to lead a large army to the Japanese country and destroy it!"
Make them kneel down from generation to generation! ! ! "
Zhu Di's pupils were filled with blood, and he knelt down on one knee to ask for orders.
"Even if there is no boat, we still have to swim over and clean up these bandits!!!"
At this moment, several men with great influence in Ming Dynasty all had the same thoughts.
Han Cheng looked at the reactions of several people, and then looked at the miserable tables and chairs in the corner. This time, he didn't feel any distress.
On the contrary, I feel that these tables and chairs were well worth the damage.
They also belong to the anti-Japanese warriors and have made great achievements in it.
"Your Majesty, do you now know why I want to draw your attention?"
Han Cheng looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and asked.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.
"You are right to have this idea! Even my predecessor couldn't bear it after hearing about this kind of thing.
As a person who is very close to that era and can come into contact with some people who have passed through that era and still exist, if you can bear it, then we really look down on you!
Fortunately, you have such a thought and are ready to guide us there.
If you let us know that the Japanese country has done so many evil things in the future, but you are indifferent and don't know where to attract our attention, we will really be angry and beat you!
Beat him to death first before talking about anything else! "
After saying that, Zhu Yuanzhang stretched out his hand to help Zhu Di, looked at Zhu Di and said: "Fourth, it's good that you have such an idea!
We are very happy! Very pleased!
Our son is not a coward! Be manly! !
In this case, we leave the matter of conquering Japanese pirates to you!
When we go out to fight against Japanese pirates, you will be the main general! "
When Zhu Di heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. He immediately faced Zhu Yuanzhang and respectfully accepted the order: "My child, accept the order! If you don't defeat the Japanese pirates, I swear you won't return them!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang stretched out his hand on Zhu Di's shoulder and patted it hard, becoming more and more satisfied with the fourth child.
“However, we can start preparations immediately to fight against Japanese pirates, but we cannot start immediately.
The distance is too far, and it is different from the battles we have fought in the past. This time we are going to sea to fight, and it is too far away from my Ming Dynasty! "
Zhu Yuanzhang took a deep breath, suppressed some impulses in his heart, looked at Zhu Di and said.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang knew what the Japanese had done later, he couldn't wait to send troops and horses to quell it immediately.
But based on the actual situation, he still needs to suppress this impulse deeply.
This is a war, don't act on impulse!
You need to make a detailed plan, and you can't just attack when your head is hot, otherwise you will only suffer the loss.
People like Zhu Yuanzhang, who have been fighting for most of their lives, understand these very clearly.
When Zhu Di heard this, he took a deep breath and said, "My child understands!"
Princess Yan's illness, coupled with the large amount of gold and silver in the Japanese country, and what Han Cheng had just said about the evil done by the Japanese people on the land of China, made Zhu Di not want to wait for a moment, he just wanted to put an end to it immediately !
But he is not a young man who has never seen the world.
We know that winning a war requires a lot of preparations and supplies, and it is impossible to just fight.
Especially traveling across vast oceans and attacking Japanese countries across seas requires extreme caution.
Otherwise, it would be really uncomfortable if you really lose!
That's why he could hold back the many feelings in his heart and accept this matter.
"Speaking of which, this Japanese country not only has a deep and bloody relationship with China in later generations, but also has an unhappy relationship with me, the Ming Dynasty.
After we destroyed Bei Yuan before, we sent envoys to the surrounding small countries to inform them that their suzerain country has changed, and from now on, their subject of surrender and allegiance will be our Ming Dynasty.
The surrounding small countries, such as Goryeo, expressed their surrender and sent tributes.
As a result, this Japanese country was so audacious that not only did they not surrender, they also killed the envoy we sent! ! "
When Zhu Yuanzhang talked about this incident, he had a terrible aura and was very angry in his heart.
"Can you bear this tone?"
Han Cheng looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and asked.
This is not quite in line with Lao Zhu’s style!
But if you think about it carefully, you really don't remember that Zhu Yuanzhang used troops against the Japanese country.
Thinking about it more carefully, Han Cheng remembered more about Zhu Yuanzhang's treatment of the Japanese country, and felt a little weird...
"Let's put up with this shit!!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang slapped Zhu Di's thigh fiercely and said: "We ordered people to build big ships immediately and prepare to attack the Japanese country and make them kneel down and bow their heads!"
Han Chengdao: "This... I remember that this incident should have happened in the second year of Hongwu, right? It is already the fifteenth year of Hongwu, and a full thirteen years have passed.
In these thirteen years, are you still not ready? "
After listening to Han Cheng's words, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately said in a rough voice: "We gave an order at that time, and the Longjiang Bao Shipyard began to build large ships with all its strength, preparing to go to sea to conquer the Japanese country.
But at that time, the Ming Dynasty had just established its country, and the remaining power of the Northern Yuan Dynasty was very large. The Ming Dynasty was unstable domestically, and needed to fight on multiple fronts.
At that time, Uncle Chengyi advised us not to take action in such a hurry, but to put Ming Dynasty first in everything.
What the Japanese did was indeed excessive, but it was far away from the Ming Dynasty and the threat was not great.
At that time, we should go all out to deal with the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and quickly restore the people's livelihood of the Ming Dynasty...
He also told me that Kublai Khan prepared to attack the Japanese country twice, gathering a large number of ships and soldiers, and using a large amount of materials.
As a result, both times, before arriving at the Japanese country, they were hit by a big storm, and countless people were lost in the sea and buried in the belly of fish.
It can be said to be very miserable.
We wouldn't be afraid of fighting on land, but we really don't want to fight this kind of battle where we can't even see the enemy and lose a lot of troops and manpower.
Moreover, the Japanese country is just a small country, too poor, and there is not much gain from conquering it. It is just a loss-making business, and the gain outweighs the loss.
After much consideration, we finally gave up on such thoughts...
It’s not like you don’t know Liu Bowen’s mouth. He is very eloquent, and even a dead toad can urinate.
He can figure things out, and he has said so, so we must believe him. "
Zhu Yuanzhang previously pulled the dead Hu Weiyong out to block the gun, and now he pulled out Liu Bowen, who died before Hu Weiyong, to take the blame.
Han Chengcheng felt very sorry to hear Zhu Yuanzhang talk about his lack of sincerity, Liu Bowen.
It would be great if he traveled back a few years.
In this case, we can look at Zhuge Liang, who dominates the world, and Liu Bowen, a strange man who dominates the world.
After all, in the legend, Liu Bowen's reputation is really great, such as dragon-slaying and sesame-seed pancake songs.
Listening to these things is fascinating.
It's a pity that Liu Bowen has passed away several years ago.
"I believe what Your Majesty said."
Hearing Han Cheng's words, Zhu Yuanzhang actually felt a little relieved.
"That's for sure. If Liu Ji hadn't said those things to us, if we wanted to mine gold and silver in the Japanese country at this time, we could do it directly and vent our anger at any time."
Zhu Yuanzhang raised his head and said this.
But what Han Cheng said next made Zhu Yuanzhang lower his raised head.
"Japanese pirates were not only extremely hateful in later generations, but also in the Ming Dynasty.
If I remember correctly, at this time, there were Japanese pirates disrupting the waters of the Ming Dynasty. They would not only rob fishing boats, but also come to the land and harm the people of the Ming Dynasty.
The current situation is not too serious, but in the future, it will become more serious, and even reach the point where dozens of Japanese pirates poison a county or even more places..."
"This Japanese pirate deserves to die! Get rid of the Japanese! We must get rid of the Japanese! It won't work if the Japanese pirates are not suppressed! It won't work if the Japanese country is not destroyed!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang clenched his hands into fists.
“Did we take action against the Japanese pirates later, or directly attack the Japanese country?
I think with our temper, we really can't bear this.
They will definitely take action against Japan! "
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Han Cheng and asked.
I want to see if I have taken some necessary actions in dealing with the Japanese country.
"Yes! I can't bear to hear such things, let alone my father!
My father will definitely not let this Japanese country go!"
Zhu Di sounded excited. He was really confident in his father.
This is a man with a very tough temper. If Japan is so aggressive, his father will definitely not let these brats go.
Not only Zhu Di, Zhu Biao also had the same idea.
While asking Han Cheng, he looked at his father with reverence.
Zhu Yuanzhang felt the eyes of his two sons looking at him again, especially after feeling Biao'er's eyes, he raised his head higher.
Get ready to hear Han Cheng's next words.
He believed that after listening to Han Cheng's words, his two sons would admire him even more.
Han Cheng took in Lao Zhu's expression and felt strange in his heart.
He coughed and said: "No, not only no, you also listed the Japanese country as a country that will not be conquered, and wrote it into the ancestral precepts, so that future generations will not go to conquer the Japanese country."
As soon as Han Cheng said these words, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao, and Zhu Di were all stunned.
what's the situation?
Then the Japanese country had done so many excessive things, and it didn't matter that they didn't send troops to attack the Japanese country. How could they be included in the ranks of countries that would not conquer Japan?
He also wrote it into the ancestral precepts and prohibited his descendants from conquering it?
Is this something you can do yourself?
How could you do such a thing? !
After Zhu Biao and Zhu Di were stunned, their eyes suddenly changed when they looked at their father, Zhu Yuanzhang.
All the previous admiration disappeared and turned into surprise and disbelief, as well as some meaningful and different looks.
This made Zhu Yuanzhang, who wanted to put on a good show in front of his sons and show them how wise and powerful he was, was suddenly confused and couldn't stand it anymore.
"Han Cheng, don't bullshit us. How could we do such a thing?"
Zhu Yuanzhang lost his face.
Han Cheng shook his head and said: "What am I talking about here? There is absolutely no need to talk nonsense, okay?
You really gave such an order and wrote it in the ancestral precepts to warn and guide future generations. "
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard Han Cheng's words, he didn't know what to say for a while.
Is this really what we did?
"It was indeed done by His Majesty. It seems that you think these small countries are far away from the Ming Dynasty and are just some scabies diseases, which are not worth mentioning.
It will not pose a great threat to Ming Dynasty and will not affect Ming Dynasty's rule.
All it takes is for these people to surrender superficially.
The Ming Dynasty wanted to place its main defense targets in the north and west to guard against enemies there. "
Originally, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't really believe what Han Cheng said.
But now, after listening to Han Cheng's reasons, combined with the actual situation and some of his own thoughts and experiences, what Han Cheng said should be true.
The possibility that I will later classify these foreign countries as countries that cannot be conquered is really not small.
After confirming that this matter was true, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know what to say for a while.
I... deserve to die!
How can we create a country without conquest?
Even if we do it, we can’t bring Japan in! !
If there weren't too many people in the room, Zhu Yuanzhang would have wanted to slap himself twice.
At the same time, I also felt extremely regretful that I had to ask Han Cheng this matter at this time.
What did I think that led me to get to the bottom of this matter?
"Um... we didn't know that the Japanese country was so wealthy.
If we knew that the Japanese country was so rich and knew what these guys would do later, we would definitely attack the Japanese country, tighten our belts, and bring down the Japanese country! "
Zhu Yuanzhang coughed a few times, turned his expression serious, looked at Zhu Biao and Zhu Di and said this.
"Ah, yes, yes, that's what my father thinks."
"Ah, yes, yes..."
Zhu Biao and Zhu Di, the two sons, what else can they say? Of course I could only nod my head.
Obviously his two sons spoke very seriously and had very good attitudes, but for some reason, Zhu Yuanzhang had the urge to slap the fourth son.
I always feel that their attitude is a bit perfunctory.
Resisting his itchy hands, Zhu Yuanzhang forced himself to look away from Zhu Di.
I once again shifted my thoughts to the Japanese country and the many gold and silver mines in the Japanese country.
I was thinking about how to conquer the Japanese country and move these gold and silver mountains back.
When he spoke before, he was quite impassioned, but when he really thought about the problem this time, Zhu Yuanzhang found that this problem was actually quite difficult to solve.
Of course, if it was easy to do, after the envoy sent to the Japanese country was beheaded, he would not have been persuaded by Liu Bowen to finally get off the donkey and not worry about this matter.
If you want to attack the Japanese country, the most important thing to solve is the problem of ships.
Only by building enough ships can we reach the Japanese country across the ocean and conquer the Japanese country.
So Zhu Yuanzhang said: "We will give the order to Longjiang Bao Shipyard in a moment and let Longjiang Bao Shipyard start work again and continue to build large ships!"
Build the boat well enough! Go over there and fuck! ! ! "
Longjiang Treasure Shipyard?
After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang say this name, Han Cheng couldn't help but feel moved.
He had actually heard of Longjiang Bao Shipyard, and he was quite impressed.
The first time I heard the news about Longjiang Bao Shipyard was not because of Zhu Yuanzhang, but because of another famous person.
This person is none other than the extremely famous being of the Yongle Dynasty, the Three Treasures Eunuch Zheng He.
Zheng He's seven voyages to the Western Ocean in his "10,000-ton aircraft carrier" became extremely famous in later generations.
As for Zheng He's super invincible fleet that was far ahead of its time, the top ships among them were all built at the Longjiang Bao Shipyard.
Needless to say about the rest, you only need to look at the size of the fleet and the size of the ships that Zheng He led when he sailed to the West, and you can see the strong shipbuilding technology of Longjiang Bao Shipyard.
In this era, you are really unique in the world!
Moreover, the Longjiang Bao Shipyard in the Yongle era was somewhat degraded compared to the shipyards of this era.
After thinking of this, Han Cheng had a clearer understanding of the excellent shipbuilding technology of Longjiang Bao Shipyard.
Shipbuilding technology, and even navigation technology, were not lacking in the Ming Dynasty at this time.
What is missing is just a matter of vision and habit.
As long as I can let the people of Ming Dynasty bring back many benefits from overseas and open this hole so that many people can benefit from it, then it will not be that easy to close this hole again!
After thinking of Longjiang Bao Shipyard and Zheng He's voyages to the West, Han Chenggong thought of more.
If Zheng He could use it, it would be of great help to the maritime operations during the Hongwu period.
With Han Cheng thinking this, he quickly began to think about the news about Zheng He.
After thinking for a while, Han Cheng looked somewhat unnatural.
Because if I remember correctly, Zheng He already existed at this time, and his name was not yet Zheng He.
And at this time, he was not here in Nanjing, but in the southwest!
According to the speculation of later generations, Zheng He was probably captured by Fu Youde, Lan Yu and others who had recovered the southwest at this time.
Whether I can keep my balls or not is a matter of debate.
Because in this day and age, it is a tradition to perform castration on some captured foreigners.
"Your Majesty, I think of someone, he is in the southwest at this time.
He should still be a young man.
This person's name is Ma He. Please ask your Majesty to have someone go there quickly to look for such a person.
If there are any, please bring them back and do not subject them to castration. "
Han Cheng looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said this.
Although I don't know if Zheng He at this age can play a role in navigation, the things he has done in history are enough to make Han Chengsheng want to help him.
At least you need to save his balls as much as possible.
A person who did such things in history really shouldn't have to endure such things.
"Ma He? Who is this person? Is he worthy of your attention?
It sounds like he became quite famous later on. "
The change in Han Cheng's expression just now has caught Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes.
Zhu Yuanzhang was already curious about what Han Cheng thought of at this time.
Now that I heard Han Cheng talking about Ma He, I immediately took advantage of the situation and asked.
Han Chengdao: "This horse and horse are very famous in the history of Ming Dynasty, more famous than many royal families."
Han Cheng's words directly aroused the strong interest of Zhu Yuanzhang and others.
"After that, he once led a huge fleet to sail to the Western Ocean in a mighty manner. He went there seven times in total, and the scale was unprecedentedly large.
It has epoch-making significance in history.
At the same time, it also brought a lot of overseas wealth to the Ming Dynasty at that time..."
Later in our Ming Dynasty, such a character actually appeared?
After Zhu Yuanzhang heard Han Cheng's words, he seemed surprised and a little happy.
But then he reacted.
"Didn't we implement a sea ban? Why are the people behind sending such a large fleet out again?
Which of our unscrupulous descendants is this, taking our ban as a fart? ! "
