Huang Guan is so easy to use. The key is that his awareness is very high.
After the selection was completed in Nanjing Zhili, Huang Guan also applied to Zhu Ying to go to Peking in person to supervise.
However, this request was rejected by Zhu Ying.
Most of the leadership of the expeditionary force has been completed in the capital, and they will just pick up people and set off when they go to Peking. There is no need to make another trip.
The Ming Dynasty's army was not that bad and could not even complete this matter.
With the detailed articles of association provided by Huang Guan, just follow the rules.
Compared with the south, soldiers in the north obviously have more advantages, especially those living in the Liaodong area, who have long been accustomed to the cold.
However, considering that after crossing the Bering Strait, the four seasons in North America become distinct, so both the north and the south are needed.
After the preparations for the expedition were completed, Zhu Ying summoned Huang Guan into the palace again to discuss arrangements for Nanyang.
...
"After seven long years, I didn't expect that when I came to the capital again, things would have changed."
The Zhengyangmen Pier was bustling with people, and there were shouts of people moving goods everywhere.
Yao Guangxiao sighed as he looked at this strange yet familiar dock.
Originally, there were just some dirt roads here, but now everything you see is paved with concrete.
Not only the pier, but also the river seems to have been widened. There are so many boats coming and going, which shows the prosperity.
Yao Guangxiao heard about Zhengyang Avenue when he left, but he never saw it with his own eyes.
At this moment, looking at the dense crowd on the broad avenue, I was a little shocked.
The feeling that Grandma Liu had when she entered the Grand View Garden was like living in the countryside in later generations and suddenly arriving in a bustling metropolis.
"Your Highness Taisun, you are really, really good."
Yao Guangxiao's eyes brightened.
In the past, he had never had much sense of belonging to the country of Ming Dynasty. In his opinion, the change of dynasties was normal. What he cared about most in his life was to display his ambitions and talents and leave his name in history.
Until he saw the current Daming, it gave him a huge impact.
Having lived in Goryeo for a long time and then going to Japan, Yao Guangxiao in the grassland can be said to have opened his eyes to the world.
But everything in other countries is as insignificant as ants in front of the capital of Nanjing.
Whether it is the workers carrying the goods or the merchants coming and going, all of them have red faces and longing eyes, reflecting the vigorous vitality of the Ming Dynasty.
In everyone's heart, there is an ideal country.
Yao Guangxiao, who came back for the first time in seven years, felt that he had found where he belonged.
Yes, seven years have passed.
I left home at the age of fifty-seven, and now I am sixty-four.
In old age, people inevitably have the idea of returning to their roots after falling leaves.
After the ship docked, Yao Guangxiao refused to take the through train, wanting to take a good look at the brand-new Nanjing.
Naturally, he was still accompanied by two guards.
Yao Guangxiao was wearing the cassock representing the Goryeo Imperial Master, which was extremely luxurious.
Although the restrictions on clothing are not as strict as before, ordinary people would not dare to mess with those who can wear such cassocks.
Yao Guangxiao walked into Zhengyang Avenue and seriously felt what it meant to rub shoulders. Even if it was a small restaurant, there was a long queue.
This is an outer city, and there are already so many people.
According to the public, that's okay.
Among them, Yao Guangxiao also noticed that almost every two alleys he passed, he could see the signboard of the security office, which meant that there were a large number of security personnel in the capital.
This is my country.
At this moment, a sense of national pride arose spontaneously in Yao Guangxiao's heart.
Perhaps only people who have been away from home for a long time will have such a strong feeling.
In fact, Yao Guangxiao should have returned last year.
But because of waiting for Zhu Quan.
Zhu Ying summoned Yao Guangxiao back to reform the Central Plains mythology system.
but
This place, Goryeo, cannot be given up. Someone must guard it.
At present, the situation of three parties is maintaining the current Goryeo. If the balance is broken and Yao Guangxiao leaves directly, then Li Chenggui will definitely take advantage of the situation to seize the throne of Goryeo.
Therefore, Zhu Ying chose Ning Wang Zhu Quan to take over.
This is not a matter of enfeoffing the vassal state temporarily to Goryeo.
It was also taken into account that Yao Guangxiao was in his sixties. At such an old age, his physical condition was a problem. Once something happened, Gao Li's plan might be ruined and he made Li Chenggui a wedding dress.
Zhu Quan is young, has experienced wars in recent years, and has some ability in strategy.
Replacing Yao Guangxiao is not a big problem.
Yao Guangxiao had to wait until Zhu Quan arrived and completed the handover before he could come back. After going back and forth, this was the time.
.....
"Daoyan is back? Why didn't you come to the palace?"
"Reporting to Your Highness, Master Dao Yan wants to take a walk around Nanjing City alone."
Zhu Ying got the news from Jinyiwei and heard that Yao Guangxiao was shopping. Only then did he realize that seven years after Yao Guangxiao left, earth-shaking changes had taken place in Ming Dynasty.
"Okay, let him go. He is tired from traveling and traveling. Let him rest for a day and come back to the palace tomorrow."
"Yes, Your Highness."
After Jin Yiwei left, Zhu Ying smiled and said to Huang Guan, "You should know Dao Yan."
Zhu Ying had been discussing with Huang Guan the layout of Nanyang.
Huang Guandian nodded: "Master Daoyan's reputation in Tianjie Temple is very resounding, but when I arrived at the Ministry of Rites, Master Daoyan had already followed King Yan to Peking."
Yao Guangxiao went to Peking in the fifteenth year of Hongwu's reign, while Huang Guan entered the Hanlin Academy as an editor in the Hanlin Academy in the twenty-fourth year of Hongwu's reign, so they were naturally separated.
Zhu Ying said with a smile: "Dao Yan is a talented person with profound knowledge and profound research on Taoism, Buddhism and Confucianism. This time I want to reform and improve the Central Plains mythology system, and his help is indispensable."
Zhu Ying had already told Huang Guan before about the impact of mythological systems on overseas education and beliefs.
In this aspect, Huang Guan's weakness is.
After all, Huang Guan read the Four Books and Five Classics, was a serious Confucian scholar with a good education, and had little exposure to the theory of gods and ghosts.
Zhu Ying wanted to learn from the prehistoric setting of later generations, which naturally involved many detailed names and taboos.
How could Zhu Ying memorize these names?
Those stories have basically been forgotten after reading them, and I only remember them roughly. If I really want to write them down in detail, don't be ridiculous. He is just a college student, not an expert or professor in this field.
Furthermore, his level of elegant literature is also very average, and the new prehistoric system will inevitably produce two versions, elegant literature and vernacular Chinese.
It is obviously difficult for ordinary people to complete the setting of this ancient system.
On the one hand, there are only a few people who are proficient in both Taoism and Buddhism. On the other hand, Zhu Ying needs to include private information in his words. Only Yao Guangxiao is the most familiar with this kind of thing.
Zhu Ying also wanted to include gods from other countries, such as the Olympian gods of ancient Greece, ancient Egyptian mythology, ancient Indian mythology, Nordic mythology, even the faded ancient Roman mythology. The ancient mythology system has been incorporated.
Even the so-called God must be included.
For other small countries, it will naturally be lowered by one level.
Nowadays, many places in the world have not formed a large system of mythology, especially with the initial integration of world civilizations. If a unified and complete world mythology system is released, there will definitely be a huge market.
Originally, the Ming Dynasty is the most fertile, powerful, and mysterious country in the world, so it is reasonable that the prehistoric mythology system is the strongest.
If anyone thinks it is unreasonable, fine, as representatives of the mythological system, let us have a try and find out.
As for Timur, it doesn't matter. Currently, Tamerlane has no local mythology system, and Persian mythology is currently fragmented.
Furthermore, although Timur was influenced by Persian culture and called himself Sultan, he was actually a Turk.
What he inherited was the legacy of the Mongol Empire.
In terms of confrontation with the mythological system, it is not worth mentioning at all.
It's even simpler in Europe.
After all, the ancient Roman Empire had collapsed, and Europe was divided into fragments of small countries. The total number of people in Europe is not as large as the people of the Ming Dynasty, even from a mythological perspective.
The power of belief in the gods of our Ming Dynasty is much greater than yours. How can your mere millions of believers compare to the 80 million followers of my Ming Dynasty?
Moreover, in the mythological system drawn up by Zhu Ying, the emperor himself was also a representative of the gods, but he had the power to enshrine gods.
This is considered the coverage of civilization.
Civilization is one aspect, and force value is also very important.
The final showdown, of course, relies on fists.
Zhu Ying pointed to Nanyang on the map and said: "The entire Nanyang is close to our Ming Dynasty. My plan is to gradually migrate the people within ten years, and then control the military armed forces of the entire Nanyang. Even if the Nanyang countries are retained, at least they will have to go to the military change."
Demilitarization is a novel term that Huang Guan has never heard of before, but it is easy to understand.
He asked with some confusion: "His Royal Highness's Ming Dynasty Ocean Trade will gradually open manors in various countries in Southeast Asia, recruit serfs, and grow food. In this way, the resentment generated by the people can be transferred to various countries. Why should we let We, the Ming Dynasty, will take the responsibility."
"With the military support of our Ming navy, we can control all the coastal waters within Malacca and seize its money and food to enrich the Ming Dynasty. I think this is the most efficient way."
The indirect rule of demilitarization will also make the people of Nanyang complain about the Ming Dynasty. If they just open farms, this resentment will not affect the Ming Dynasty.
The outbreaks that occurred over time were also borne by the countries in Southeast Asia.
So Huang Guan didn't understand this.
Zhu Ying was very familiar with this section of the Little Glacier Bridge. After all, he had already told the old man about it once, and now that he had told it again, he could easily understand it.
Liu Rixin was used as a shield again.
Zhu Ying slowly recounted how climate change affected the change of historical dynasties, causing the Ming Dynasty to suffer from ice two hundred years later, locusts everywhere, and famine everywhere.
After hearing this, Huang Guan was deeply shocked.
He didn't expect that Taisun had already seen the Ming Dynasty two hundred years later, but he was so short-sighted.
He stood up and bowed and said, "I am stupid, my grandson is doing this for the benefit of future generations."
Zhu Ying waved her hand: "It's okay. You don't know this information. It's normal to have such thoughts."
Huang Guan's thoughts began to change. After pondering for a moment, he said: "In this case, if you want to conquer your country, you must first make it chaotic. Our Ming Dynasty is a country of etiquette. Rushing to send troops violates moral standards and damages the majesty of our great country."
"Chaos has arisen within it, just like Annan. I, the Ming Dynasty, should attack with the force of justice and bring order to the chaos, so that I can control it."
Zhuying nodded slightly.
This idea is the same as his.
The Nanyang countries have their own cultural beliefs and complete governing institutions. If chaos does not arise, it is difficult for Ming Dynasty to have a reason to intervene.
Sending troops to attack is the last resort.
If it is too strong and shows its determination to unify Southeast Asia, it will easily unite the countries in Southeast Asia.
Don't underestimate Nanyang, not to mention the coastal areas. The inland areas are mostly tropical jungles with miasma everywhere. The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty went into the forests to fight. Plague casualties were a big problem.
Moreover, once the war breaks out, the wealth coming from Nanyang will also decrease, and the overall interests of Ming Dynasty will be greatly affected.
Even if they were to capture the entire territory of Nanyang, they would still have to put in a large amount of troops to suppress and deal with rising uprisings everywhere.
In the end, it shook the foundation of Ming Dynasty.
The biggest impact is on climate and environment.
If there were a large number of plain areas, they would have been bulldozed by him long ago. Of course, in this case, it would not be Zhu Ying's turn to do it, and the previous dynasties would naturally be completed earlier.
"Your Highness feels that firearms should be sold
How about in Nanyang? "After Huang Guan thought for a while, he suddenly said.
Zhu Ying was a little surprised and asked, "Tell me in detail."
Huang Guan continued: "The matchlock gun invented by His Highness is undoubtedly an artifact in small-scale battles. However, due to the large-scale equipment used in the army and the opening of firearms factories throughout the country, matchlock guns and granular gunpowder are no longer of great importance. 's secret."
"Nowadays, in addition to secretly purchasing in Ming Dynasty, many of these maritime merchants even have their own small workshops for production."
"The matchlock guns they produce are naturally much inferior to those of our Ming Dynasty in terms of durability and power. Now that the secret has been leaked, it is better to let them buy and dump firearms in Nanyang to support local gangs, nobles and all parties. power."
"In this case, it will be more likely to cause chaos. At the same time, it can also guide our Ming family to intervene in the fight, suppress it with the navy, and wait for the opportunity."
Zhu Ying smiled and nodded: "Your idea is very good. Please write down a charter with specific arrangements."
"There is a shortage of manpower in the James Mansion right now. If you see which talents are suitable, you will also recruit them to make plans and put up a front."
Huang Guan's idea is very similar to Zhu Ying's.
Zhu Yinghui's idea was based on the historical situation of the concessions of the previous great powers.
Huang Guan didn't have the ability to know about history and later generations, so these ideas were figured out through his own research, and they were extremely correct directions.
In later generations, the concessions eventually disappeared.
The reason here is actually related to the number of people.
The great powers have few people and can only occupy upper-level rule.
The Ming Dynasty is different. At present, the country with 80 million is already the largest country, and it is now encouraging childbirth.
In fact, even if they are not encouraged, they are still crazy about having children. Two babies in three years is the basic operation.
Therefore, when people continue to migrate and the population ratio reaches a certain level, the countries in Southeast Asia will naturally belong to the Ming Dynasty.
