When Yang Jinchao saw that King Qian Sui had finally left, he offered auspicious words with a charming smile on his face: "Your Highness has opened up territory for the Ming Dynasty. He is truly a wise king through the ages!"
As one of the chief companions of the East Palace, Yang Jinchao had seen the world map, but he had never thought of incorporating the huge overseas lands into the Ming Dynasty's sphere of influence.
This strategy of His Highness the Prince is really extraordinary. Not only did he easily resolve the very difficult matter of reducing the vassal state, but he also took advantage of the situation to bring all the wastelands into the Ming Dynasty.
If done properly, the territory of the Ming Dynasty could be expanded more than two or three times in a few years. This is a magnificent feat that neither Emperor Taizu Gao nor Emperor Chengzu had ever accomplished, and it is of course very gratifying.
Yao Ji also recognized the flattery of this chamberlain and commented to himself: "No one will dare to say so, but this policy of this palace is definitely unprecedented. Even in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, it only expanded its territory to the west of Central Asia. That’s it. I plan to expand the scope of Ming’s power to the Arctic, America, South Ocean and Central Asia in the future, and the territory will be able to span half of the earth, thus turning into a super empire that has never appeared in the history of the world!”
The Sun Never Sets Empire back then was too shabby. It only established colonies in half of Africa, Oceania, and half of North America, and it was regarded as ruling India.
As long as the hostile countries in Europe have the ability to attack the British mainland, the so-called "Empire on which the Sun Never Sets" will instantly collapse and split into dozens of countries, large and small.
The Ming Empire of a certain prince is different. After the pigtails, Khalkhas and Jungar are eliminated, the Ming Dynasty's military power can be extended to Central Asia and Siberia.
Turn all these two places into the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court, build a city every hundred miles, settle mainly with people from the Ming Dynasty, and implement permanent rule. From now on, there will never be any alienation.
In addition to the original territory of the Yuan Empire, a certain prince also planned to capture the territories of the Chagatai Khanate in Central Asia and the Golden Horde in the Ural Mountains.
The main rice-producing area, the Indochina Peninsula, cannot be spared. Except for Siam, which is relatively friendly to the Ming Dynasty, the rest of the places, including the Burmese and Vietnamese monkeys, who eat both inside and outside, must be annexed.
Go south through the Dutch East Indies, reach Australia, and take the iron ore there as your own. As long as you control the oil in Indonesia and the iron ore in Australia, there will be no shortage of raw materials for Ming Dynasty's industrialization.
North America can be given to the vassals to divide up. At this time, except for California, Arizona, Texas, Florida and other places that are in Spanish hands, and the British have also established Dogan settlements on the east coast, other places are temporarily closed. They are native Indians.
To the heavily armed vassal army, these natives hardly posed any substantial threat, especially after establishing a foothold in Canada. Using southern Canada as the base of advancement, it would be easy to succeed in a large-scale push southward.
A certain prince believed that the vassal king's army could occupy at least the line from Oregon, Nebraska to Iowa and Pennsylvania, which was about one-third of the total area of the United States.
Counting Canada and Alaska that have already been eaten, more than two-thirds of North America belongs to the Ming Dynasty.
Unless Europe sends a joint force to attack, it will be difficult for the Spanish or British military power alone to severely damage the Ming vassals with great strategic depth.
If each ship transports fifty people, and two hundred ships are sent every year, that is 10,000 people. In ten years, it can transport 100,000 people, which is enough to establish a firm foothold.
The early personnel are mainly strong men, and the number of troops will not be less than 50,000. There is no problem at all in Canada for self-protection and expansion.
Salmon, black bears, bison, elk and other wild animals alone can keep these latecomers who have just arrived in North America well fed.
A certain prince believed that even if there was no need to grow crops, the 100,000 people in the early stage would be able to eat and drink just as well as the local indigenous people just by hunting.
Although the Central America area can be called a granary, with all kinds of crops, North America is not bad except for the colder climate. At least there are much more prey than in the south.
In particular, salmon is a specialty of North America. Tens of thousands of black bears eat tens of thousands of tons of it every year. This is simply a huge loss.
Each person catches 200 kilograms of salmon every year, and can eat more than one kilogram per day on average, which is enough to supplement the protein needed by the human body.
If you eat some wild vegetables, berries, venison, and beef, you can get through it without eating grains. It would be even better if the ships transporting staple food could dock smoothly.
A certain prince's plan was to transport the people there first at all costs, and then consider other things. He didn't even get the people there, so sitting here with Daming and thinking about it was all in vain.
Before competitors from all walks of life could understand it, they would sow extensively and harvest poorly, spreading knowledge to a vast area from Siberia to Canada.
In this way, no matter what the enemy is, even if they join forces, it will be difficult to eliminate the descendants of the Ming Empire.
A scumbag like Braid who has never known how big the earth is all his life is just a daydream if he wants to destroy the Ming Dynasty in one fell swoop.
After Huang Taiji annexed Monan Menggu, he launched a strategic pincer attack on Ming Dynasty in Liaodong and Monan directions.
If it were hard steel, the imperial court didn't have the strength at the moment, and they would be wiped out by the opponent when they went out to fight in the field.
To this end, a certain prince deliberately implemented a counter-encirclement strategy.
That is, the Eastern Siberian region extending from Sakhalin Island to the north of the Black Dragon River will be developed as a dependent territory.
With the strategic mobility of the "Great Qing King's Division", firstly, it was unable to cross the sea to attack Sakhalin Island, and secondly, it was unable to travel long distances up to 1,000 kilometers to attack the armies of the Ming Dynasty King as far away as Magadan and Kamchatka.
After a trip of half a year, the number of troops sent is too small, and you can't defeat the lord's armed forces at all.
If more troops are sent, the braids outside the customs will have to wait half a year to enter the customs.
A certain prince's strategy for dealing with braids is: First, I will use all my connections to hire foreign aid from various countries. Second, I will take advantage of the geographical advantages to deliver my troops to places that are beyond your reach. Third, I won’t fight with you in a field battle. You fight yours and I fight mine. After my strength reaches a certain level, we will form a team to "bang bang" and try to determine the outcome in one round!
Although these pig-like vassal kings cannot play a role on the frontal battlefield, they can completely rely on their extreme desire for real power to establish vassal states outside the braid's sphere of influence, thus playing a certain role in containing them.
Even if the feudal lord is a group of domestic pigs with little attack power for the time being, when they start to roam freely, they will slowly evolve into wild boars with full attack power. After all, the feudal lord is also a king, and he has a strong sense of protecting his own territory.
Only when you can't defeat the opponent will you consider surrendering. Pigtail will not provide the vassal king with the same generous treatment as the Ming Dynasty. If he finds an opportunity, he will kill him and sacrifice the flag. In this regard, the vassal kings will not sit still and wait for death. .
One vassal king has 5,000 troops, and the seven or eight vassal kings north of the braid-controlled area can have 30,000 to 40,000 troops. The braid may not be able to win if he sends out two banners.
Without a large-scale field battle, the possibility of a quick victory is almost zero, and each vassal king can also receive assistance from the sea, but Huang Taiji does not have this ability.
A certain prince wants to expand the war to the entire Northeast Asia. The chicken has a second thought. If he really takes the bait, he can fight everywhere to satisfy this chicken's long-cherished wish.
"The thousand-year-old King Jin has arrived~!"
In the territory of Shanqian, the richest person is not King Dai, but King Jin Zhu Shenxuan. King Dai's vassal is in Datong, while King Jin lives in Taiyuan. It is obvious that just looking at the geographical area, he is higher than King Dai. Compared with the King of Jin, the King of Dai is at best a guard pig.
The contemporary King of Jin Zhu Shenxuan is the eldest son of the previous King of Jin Zhu Qiugui. It is natural and reasonable for him to inherit such a large family fortune. He was canonized by Chongzhen eight years ago. Now he is considered a serious King of Jin, but for The imperial court held great opinions on reducing vassal states.
For Yaoji, what can happen if the feudal king is dissatisfied?
Even if we can't reach an agreement in person, do you dare to take action or let go?
As a matter of fact, everyone in the yard is his little brother!
Compared with letting go of a dog, my dog is a purebred German shepherd. A few barks will scare the crap out of you!
After some false greetings, Zhu Shenxuan saw that the young prince was very kind and approachable, so he felt that he could prove his power and said: "Your Highness, the reduction of the vassal is of great importance. Your Highness must not receive any ulterior motives." Such people are bewitching you! All vassal kings from all over the country have been canonized by Taizu and Chengzu. The sudden reduction of vassals must be against the ancestral system and will be criticized by the government, the public and even the world. Your Highness must think twice before taking action!"
Yaoji thought to himself: I can tell you irresponsibly that the person you mentioned with ulterior motives is me!
If we don't cut the vassal, let alone pigtails and bandits, they will cooperate inside and outside and attack from both sides. Just by feeding you pigs, the court will be ruined by you. You can't even afford pig feed. How can we talk about governance? The world?
The Dai Kingdom is so good at eating it, but it turns out that your Jin Kingdom is even more edible than the Dai Kingdom. You can be called a model vassal state that respects eating first!
If we don't stop suddenly, our country will become the largest pig farm in the world!
"Cao Wei" is at least a bit domineering in his name!
"Zhu Ming" is easily reminiscent of "Zhu Ming"!
A dynasty that focuses on eating...
In fact, he was eaten alive by a group of feudal kings.
If five million shi of food are used for disaster relief every year, the rogue bandits in various places will not become a big problem.
The problem is that he does not have the courage to blame others, and he is afraid that the feudal king will take the opportunity to make things worse and form the Eight Kings Rebellion.
Until the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the vassal kings were caught by braids or bandits one by one, and the blame-shifting father did nothing on this issue.
All the vassal kings were extremely rich, but Chongzhen didn't know how to reach out for it. Instead, he was constantly blackmailed by the vassal kings.
This is really a group of fools who met an idiot who was worse than them, and ended up trapping the even more idiotic person to death!
Regarding the speech of the King of Jin, Yao Ji had just heard a lot, so he smiled and said: "I understand very much what the emperor thinks and says, but the uncle on behalf of the king just came to visit, and after a serious talk with me, he was pleased I agreed to go to Sakhalin Island, that is, Kugu became a vassal! This time the court issued an order, which was said to be reducing the vassal, but in fact it was just moving the vassal. It was to move all the vassal kings in the Ming Dynasty to settle overseas, so that the vassal kings could control the country outside. There is no limit to the number of soldiers, so there is the minimum guarantee! If the emperor's uncle is interested, he can discuss it with the king after leaving the palace. After all, after leaving the mainland of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor's uncle can display his ambitions in the vast world. "
As long as you get to the fiefdom, you can do somersaults and get tops. Even if you hit your head against a tree, no one will care about you. You can also arm-wrestle with Xiong Da and Xiong Er.
Each of these vassal kings is also sanctimonious. They say they follow the ancestral system and don't care about government affairs. In fact, they really want to have military power so that they can dominate one side.
Being escorted by the factory guards, he was no different from a prisoner. Zhu Shenxuan complained a lot along the way. However, the crown prince issued an order with a large jade seal attached, and it was signed by the cabinet and the court. The relevant documents were clear and absolutely no child's play. .
As the King of Jin, he could only bow his head and admit defeat. Thinking of the emperor's immortal travels and the young prince, this decision was made by a high-ranking member of the imperial court. It was really the most unforgivable thing. If he could face the saint, he would have to reverse the situation.
Hearing that King Dai actually agreed, Zhu Shenxuan couldn't help but widen his eyes and blurted out: "Your Highness, King Dai agreed?"
How can this be?
Could it be that the king was deliberately perfunctory with the young prince, and then tried to find a way to change the situation?
Perhaps this should be the case. Zhu Shenxuan believed that no matter what, as the vassal king, Dai Wang would not do anything that would harm his own interests.
Yao Ji nodded affirmatively, and then enlightened the idiot and said: "Yes, uncle, the acting king and uncle have agreed to send his family to Kuwu. They should set off within half a month, so that they can become the first step for me to regain the lost territory of the Ming Dynasty." The meritorious official has been recorded in the annals of history, and he can be regarded as the first vassal king of Guangzong Yaozu! The emperor's uncle must also know that Datong was previously occupied by Wang Pu. I sent Yang Wenyue to lead an army to conquer. Datong City has been beaten beyond recognition. I thought that the Dai Wang family had suffered greatly from the war, so I invited him to the capital. The Dai Wang understood the righteousness and did not seek to return to the original vassal state. He was determined to regain the lost territory for our Ming Dynasty and then expand the territory! I was Infected by his grand ambitions, he agreed to Dai Wang's request. If the emperor's uncle also had this ambition, he could go with Dai Wang. Looking at the past dynasties, there are always vassal kings who have accomplished such a miraculous feat. Once it is put into practice, , it will surely be a great achievement!”
In fact, it was not what a certain prince said. The king was kicked out. He was originally unwilling to leave, but later a certain prince persuaded him to agree to run away to Sakhalin Island.
Of course, in order to deceive him, what King Jin heard was another story. The prerequisite for deception is packaging. With gorgeous packaging as a basis, it is much easier to use it to deceive fools like frogs in the well.
Seeing that the other party was not listening clearly, Yaoji continued to deceive: "Uncle, don't worry, I will give you 50,000 taels of silver and 20,000 shi of rice. The emperor can recruit troops and expand his military strength before leaving the shore. When we get there, there will be no braids or bandits. As long as the emperor's uncle can see it, he can send troops to occupy it! For example, Sakhalin is close to the Ming Dynasty, there are huge gold mines over Magadan, and there is vast land waiting in North America. There are many benefits to occupying, it just depends on how the emperor chooses! The emperor must understand that the power of the vassal kings in the Ming Dynasty is not as powerful as the minister. When you go overseas, you have military power in your hands, and you can control whatever you want and take whatever you want. He is the vassal king who can truly act alone~!"
In the Ming Dynasty, you vassal kings are just pig kings. If you are caught by courier Brother Li or Big Zongzi, you will be turned into pork and stewed vermicelli!
Letting you go overseas is just to give you a great way to survive. If you don't appreciate it, my life is really difficult... 11 Go to Baidu to read the latest chapter of "The Literature of the Black Prince in the Late Ming Dynasty" for free as soon as possible.
