On this day, Zhu Yuanzhang paid a private visit in Jinling incognito. He wanted to see how the people were doing?
Zhu Yuanzhang did not go to the bustling streets, but went to the alleys. He felt that different voices might be heard in these alleys.
Being praised every day is not a good thing. Listening to some bad words may be a very good thing.
Zhu Yuanzhang and the others are currently developing very well, but they have been facing very significant risks recently.
Chen Youliang, that is not simple.
In terms of overall strength, Zhu Yuanzhang is not as good as Chen Youliang. This is a fact.
But Zhu Yuanzhang also has an advantage. He is relatively united internally, while Chen Youliang is not a monolith.
Furthermore, the knowledge and insights of later generations that Zhu Yuanzhang possesses are also Zhu Yuanzhang's trump cards.
But Zhu Yuanzhang was still a little worried.
After all, Zhu Yuanzhang made several major mistakes during this period in history, and almost fell into a situation of no return.
If Chen Youliang hadn't also made mistakes that he shouldn't have made, history would have been rewritten.
During the Poyang Lake water battle, Chen Youliang first underestimated the enemy and rushed forward, and secondly, he was too unlucky. Otherwise, Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely be defeated.
Now Zhu Yuanzhang's way of thinking is much stronger than Chen Youliang, but he is still not very confident.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang once captured Chen Youliang alive, he still did not dare to despise Chen Youliang.
At this moment, at that moment, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had calmed down, was thinking about one thing. His strength was getting stronger day by day, but others were not vegetarians either.
Although Chen Youliang has many shortcomings, he has been in the limelight recently and his subordinates are still afraid of him.
We must knock down Chen Youliang's arrogance.
Only in this way can it be possible for his subordinates to alienate themselves from him.
Chen Youliang is not scary, but the hundreds of thousands of rebel brothers under him are scary. Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking about how to achieve his goal.
Here in Jinling City, the people live and work in peace and contentment. At this moment, the land of China is full of wars. It is like a paradise.
People's faces were filled with happy smiles, and Zhu Yuanzhang was very satisfied with this.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang in history dealt harsh blows to his heroes several times, he was very caring for the common people. This is something that other emperors in history cannot match.
There is a poem that says, when things prosper, the people suffer; when they perish, the people suffer.
When Zhu Yuanzhang thought of this, he really had mixed feelings in his heart.
Thinking of his experience at the Later University, Zhu Yuanzhang vowed to make the people live a better life in whatever way he could. Why?
It turns out to be very simple, he is also a common man.
But now he is Zhu Yuanzhang and must complete his established mission.
He can't be lazy now, great achievements are waiting for him to achieve.
The weather is not as good as the right place, and the right place is not as good as the people. At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang had the right time, the right place, and both the people and the people.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang was compassionate, he really did not want people to cause massacres, but he really had no choice.
Everyone is their own master, there is really no way.
After experiencing so many bloody wars, Zhu Yuanzhang's heart has become hard-hearted.
Zhu Yuanzhang knew this very well.
A thoroughly corrupt empire needs to undergo the baptism of blood and fire before it can be reborn.
No one can escape the suffering that must be experienced, whether it is a country or an individual.
Zhu Yuanzhang is full of a sense of historical mission. Since he cannot be stopped, Zhu Yuanzhang must face it calmly and strive for the best result.
There was a sesame cake stall in front, and a burst of fragrance whetted Zhu Yuanzhang's appetite. He was a little hungry.
Zhu Yuanzhang's guards are all in the dark. This is his order.
He came out for an unannounced visit just to see what the real life of the people in Jinling was like. If they were surrounded by people, Zhu Yuanzhang would not be able to see the real situation at all.
Shen Wansan's business has been very good recently, but Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't care much about it.
In troubled times, military comes first, and Zhu Yuanzhang will use his limited energy on military affairs.
Moreover, the situation Zhu Yuanzhang faced at this moment was not very good. Historically, Zhu Yuanzhang made a mistake at this time and almost ended his life.
Fortunately, at this moment, Chen Youliang also made another bigger mistake, which allowed Zhu Yuanzhang to get out of danger and achieve an impossible victory.
But at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang did not dare to do the same thing again.
One step is heaven, one step is hell.
Zhu Yuanzhang took a bite of sesame seed cakes and drank a mouthful of tofu curd.
The sesame seed cakes are so fragrant, and paired with the tofu curd, it’s a perfect match.
But Zhu Yuanzhang was staring at the sesame cakes and tofu nao in deep thought...
If Chen Youliang is compared to sesame cakes, then Zhang Shicheng and others are tofu nao. Although tofu nao is delicious, it is not as good as sesame biscuits.
According to the law of true fragrance, sesame cakes are more fragrant than tofu nao.
Zhu Yuanzhang knew something about what was going to happen next.
When King Xiao Ming was attacked, Zhu Yuanzhang still had to save him, but this time it was not Zhu Yuanzhang who was going to save him himself, he had to use his substitute to save him.
Otherwise, Zhu Yuanzhang would have to put on a huge show. Secretly, Zhu Yuanzhang would gather all his main forces and concentrate all his forces to deal with Chen Youliang.
This is the best policy.
With the help of Shen Wansan, the God of Wealth, Zhu Yuanzhang's financial strength is really incomparable.
The war is all about economic strength. At this point, Zhu Yuanzhang has already occupied a powerful position.
There is also the fact that Zhu Yuanzhang is preparing to carry out an economic war before carrying out a military war.
Huangjue Temple branches all over the country are now about to flex their muscles.
The specific goal is to find a way to transport military rations from the areas ruled by Chen Youliang and Zhang Shicheng to the vicinity of Jinling through a comprehensive and long-lasting economic war.
However, it would take a very long time to achieve this goal, so Zhu Yuanzhang gathered Shen Wansan, Xiaobao and others to Jinling. He was going to give Shen Wansan, Xiaobao and the others tasks.
…
"Commander, if we come back so soon, why don't we just eat sesame seed cakes and drink tofu cakes?"
Shen Wansan asked.
Zhu Yuanzhang took a bite of the sesame cake and drank a sip of tofu curd. "It smells so good! Try it, do you think it smells good?"
Xiaobao had already finished the tofu puffs in one gulp, "Here's another bowl of tofu puffs, and three sesame seed cakes! It's so delicious!"
The performance of Wei Chen and Xiaochun was quite satisfactory. They were very loyal to Zhu Yuanzhang. They would do whatever Zhu Yuanzhang asked them to do without saying a word.
"Shen Dashan, what do you think of the situation in the world?"
