Zheng He looked confused: "What the hell? Destroy the country?"
Didn't our Ming Dynasty always engage in friendly diplomacy in the name of "maintaining world peace"? Why did it suddenly start to change?
"I plan to use troops against North Korea and Japan before the New Year." Zhu Di said, "Divide the land and water routes. The Liaodong Army will send troops from the northeast, and the maritime navy will surround North Korea. After capturing North Korea, we will use this place as a springboard to march into Japan. After the two countries were destroyed, the local policy of converting the barbarians into Han was implemented."
A big question mark appeared on Zheng He's head: "Is it so sudden? Why have I never heard of this?"
"The strategy of marching into North Korea and Japan was formulated by King Qi. Currently, only King Qi and I know about it."
Zhu Di smiled and said, "The war between the two countries is very detailed, and they are all about taking things by surprise. Before all strategic planning is completed, no news can be leaked. Although the national power of North Korea and Japan is far inferior to that of our Ming Dynasty, they should go all out to fight the lion against the rabbit. How can a war over national destiny be a piece of cake? What’s more, our Ming Dynasty is not going to war with a certain country, but is going to send troops to two countries in a row."
Zheng He was a little confused. His code of conduct was non-violence and no killing, even when dealing with animals.
He has led the Ming Dynasty's fleet on the sea for so many years, always using a peaceful attitude to solve problems encountered. Even if he encounters some blind fools, he will only take action after the other party takes action.
As for destroying a country, there will inevitably be bloodshed, and the blood will flow into rivers, which is really not in line with Zheng He's code of conduct.
After struggling in his heart for a long time, Zheng He still said firmly: "I am willing to lead the boat master, obey the orders of His Highness King Qi, and wipe out the Japanese invaders!"
"I'm not asking you to be an executioner, just relax." Zhu Di said, "The system King Qi used to convert the barbarians into Han people in Jianzhou Province was very good. We Han people are not Mongolians. We conquered rather than slaughtered. The Ming Dynasty will be in No country has established a perfect system and replaced their original corrupt system with a better system. Speaking of which, they should also be grateful for the blessings brought by our Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Gaojie almost burst out laughing when he heard this.
He has to be an old man!
He talks nonsense without blushing at all.
Ming Dynasty launched wars abroad just to bring blessings to those countries? Do you regard Daming as an international philanthropist?
In fact, as long as a war is launched, no matter how high-sounding the words are, the bloody facts cannot be concealed.
When Zhu Gaojie established Jianzhou Province in the Northeast, he never thought about massacres. These Jianzhou natives became valuable population resources after the establishment of Jianzhou Province and could shine for the Ming Dynasty. However, when the war started, countless people were still involved. Come in, blood soaked the land of Jianzhou.
The accumulation of capital is a gap that cannot be crossed in the development process of any country. If you do not plunder other countries, then you can only plunder your own people. In the process, you have to help other countries, then You will intensify the plunder of your own people. No one is a fool. Who doesn't know that you are not living well?
Foreign war is an inevitable path for any country, and such a process is beneficial to both the country and the upper class. It cannot be changed, and by the time it is changed, you will have turned into bones.
Even if you have epoch-making ideas and have technology that is hundreds of years in the future, the prerequisite is that you can implement it. If you want to implement it, you must have the foundation. Where does the foundation come from?
——One word, grab.
Between foreign war and oppression of the grassroots, you have to make a choice. If you don't fight others, you will have to suffer yourself. There is no suspense between these two choices.
But Zhu Di was right about one thing. The Ming Dynasty's foreign wars were different from those of the Mongol and Yuan Dynasties. They were conquests rather than massacres.
While bringing bloodshed, Ming Dynasty also brought more advanced systems to foreign countries.
Jianzhou Province under the rule of Zhu Gaojie has a complete system and a complete civilization. Everything seems to be prospering. There is no need to live in bark houses anymore. Farming, mining, construction... everything is tending to be better, Jurchen Civilization has begun to disappear from the long river of history and transformed into Han civilization.
Without Zhu Gaojie, these Jianzhou natives would have lived in bark houses for hundreds of years, relying on hunting to maintain their civilization like primitive people.
We brought killing, we brought destruction, we brought the downfall of your civilization, but we also brought new life.
The night will inevitably be dark and cool, but there will be dawn as we move forward.
Are you still not grateful?
…
"His Majesty the Great Emperor, His Majesty the Great Emperor!"
The guards escorted a person to kneel in front of Zhu Di, "I have no intention of offending the Ming Dynasty. I was impulsive. Please forgive me, His Majesty the Emperor!"
"Huh? Who is this?" Zhu Di asked with some confusion.
Zhu Gaojie explained on the side: "This is Su Ganci, the prince of Sumatra. The relationship between Su Ganci and the current King of Sumatra is not father and son. The former King of Sumatra, Sultan Han Abizhen, is his biological father.
In the early years, a war broke out between Sumatra and the neighboring flower-faced king. In this war, the old king was shot by the enemy's poisonous arrow and died on the battlefield. At that time, Su Qianla was still young and could not take charge of the overall situation. The princess could only recruit talents from all over the country, promising that if there was a warrior who could defeat the enemy and save the country of Sumatra, he would marry the warrior and the country of Sumatra would be the princess's dowry. Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man. An old fisherman volunteered himself and led the Sumatran army to defeat the orphan country and resolve the crisis. The Princess of Sumatra kept her promise, married the fisherman, and led the officials to honor the fisherman as the new King of Sumatra. "
"Since you are a prince from a neighboring country, let's be fair and there is no need to be polite." Zhu Di nodded slightly, but in fact he didn't remember Su Qianci at all.
There were so many countries coming to Ming Dynasty to worship these days, how could he remember the people from each country clearly?
"Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor."
Just as Su Ganla was about to get up, Zhu Gaojie said again: "When Su Ganla grew up, his hatred for the new king grew day by day. He led his soldiers to launch a palace coup, killed the fisherman king in one fell swoop and replaced him. For such a vicious person, Zheng He is sending As a representative of the Ming Dynasty, how could he recognize the kingship of Su Qianla? This person had a grudge and actually sent all the troops from the country out of the city to stop our Ming Dynasty Marine Corps. Soon Zheng He led his army to severely teach the ignorant Su Qianla a lesson. Annihilated his army, captured Su Qianla alive on the battlefield, and brought him back to the Ming Dynasty to ask his father to punish him."
After hearing Zhu Gaojie's words, the old man's face turned dark. He pointed at Su Ganci and scolded: "Don't stand up yet, it's better to just kneel like this!"
Su Gan Ci: "..."
Zhu Di was really out of breath. He thought it was the Sumatra Kingdom that sent a prince as an envoy to show respect to the suzerain country, the Ming Dynasty. After all, this is not a strange thing. In some countries, even the king comes to pay homage in person.
But he never expected that this Su Ganci came to express his respect. He was obviously an ungrateful rebel, and his brain was not very good. He actually launched an attack on the Ming Dynasty, and was beaten into a dog by Zheng He. The prisoners were brought back.
"Your Majesty, the Great Emperor, forgive me. I was just temporarily ignorant at the time, but I was absolutely loyal to the Ming Dynasty in my heart!" Su Qianci said quickly.
"Shut up! Shameless beast, the Fisher King helped you drive away the foreign enemies, but you are ungrateful. Not only did you kill your benefactor, but you actually dared to send troops to the Ming Dynasty's boat division. The sin of a fool is unforgivable. You will commit it for yourself. Your crime will be regretted forever in hell!"
There was murderous intent in Zhu Di's eyes, which frightened Su Ganqi to the ground and trembled.
The rebels of a small country have never seen the emperor in anger. In the face of Zhu Di's coercion, Su Qian's crotch was wet!
Zhu Di looked at King Qi: "You are now the supervisor. Tell me, how do you plan to deal with this person?"
Zhu Gaojie smiled: "The Ming Dynasty has always been kind. Even if the opponent is a fool, the Ming Dynasty will still maintain the dignity of the suzerain state. However, the Ming Dynasty will give the most severe judgment to the rebels who overstep their bounds!"
"Su Qian's stabbing of this animal is a crime of treason in terms of the law and a crime of trespass in terms of morality. For both crimes, his nine clans should be punished and sentenced to death by Lingchi!"
"The son of the original king of Sumatra will inherit the throne, and use Sugan Ci as a warning to warn the world that the Ming Dynasty cannot be humiliated, and disobedient ministers will be killed without mercy!"
