In a complicated look.
The second prince, King Qin Zhu Yixin, boarded the giant ship.
He will lead a regiment of more than 3,000 officers there.
At this moment, the Jinzhou Protectorate only has two brigades of standing troops, but everyone in the Jinzhou Protectorate has a gun and can fight, so they can protect themselves.
These more than 3,000 officer corps are young graduates who have graduated from the Ming Dynasty Royal Army Academy in recent years.
They will support a huge elite army with at least more than 200,000 people in the Golden State Protectorate, which will be the future coalition of American princes.
And now.
The nominal supreme commander of the army was already on board a ship bound for the New World.
Except for the officer corps.
There were also some second generations of wealthy families in the Ming Dynasty who also went there.
Empress Luo Fangmei of the Ming Dynasty is now over forty, and her figure has begun to get out of shape.
After giving birth to the last princess the year before last.
This "heroic queen" who made great contributions to the development of the Ming Dynasty royal family finally did not get pregnant for three consecutive years.
She alone gave birth to 5 princes and 7 princesses.
And all survived.
It’s really hard work and great results.
However, for Empress Luo Fangmei of the Ming Dynasty, what she cared about most was Zhu Da's succession to the throne.
Although Emperor Zhu never showed any intention of changing the crown prince, and according to etiquette and law, there was no need to change the crown prince for no reason in the succession of the Ming Dynasty.
The prince's power is also protected by force.
Etiquette binds everyone and protects everyone.
but
These are all theoretical things.
Who knows if things will suddenly break down.
Good thing.
Now Zhu Er, who is obviously the biggest threat, is going to North America. He will not be able to come back for ten or eight years.
Moreover, theoretically, the future Zhu Er will be one of the vassals in North America. Although he is the most noble King of Qin, the next three, four, five, seven and eight brothers of the Zhu family will also go to America.
Become a prince.
Emperor Zhu is obviously a good old man and will definitely arrange the army and retinue. Help recruit customers, and maybe give you a low-interest loan or something.
In short, it is still impossible for the Zhu family brothers to go to America with bare hands.
In addition, the princes of the Ming Dynasty will also get a piece of territory in North America - of course, the princes' son, Emperor Zhu, doesn't care. He has to pay for the recruitment of troops, retinues and the like.
Therefore, if the Ming Dynasty can really monopolize North America, then in the future North America will consist of more than a dozen kingdoms plus a bunch of small and large feudal states.
These countries will definitely annex each other in the future, similar to what happened during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods.
But definitely not now.
Because the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was still there, and even if it had been a hundred years since the emperor was restored, the next boss Zhu would still have considerable authority.
The struggle for hegemony among the princes in the Spring and Autumn Period did not begin until the Emperor Zhou lost his authority.
Therefore, within Luo Fangmei's foreseeable time, this kind of thing will definitely not happen. Since the North American countries have to face the pressure brought by European forces, they must also stay close to the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, Luo Fangmei doesn't need to worry about Zhu Lao'er going to North America for the time being.
Don't think that Luo Fangmei's worries are unfounded.
Nowadays, some people in the Ming Dynasty are saying that "Zhu Da is mediocre, Zhu Er is heroic and martial" and so on.
It can be said that the elder Zhu is like Li Jiancheng, and the second elder Zhu is like Li Shimin.
In the future, when Emperor Zhu gets old.
This second generation of the Zhu family might have a Zhongdu version of Xuanwumen.
Although these rumors were spread by some remnants of the former Qing Dynasty and old Confucian scholars who were dissatisfied with the Ming Dynasty.
But this is not groundless.
Zhu Da is slightly fat and looks silly.
Her facial features are those of Emperor Zhu, but her face shape, and now her body shape are all those of Empress Luo.
There is a double chin under the round face.
Although I ride a bicycle to and from the university and the palace every day.
But I can't seem to lose weight.
He also has a soft temper, a gentle temper, and always smiles to everyone.
He doesn't look like a very majestic emperor.
He doesn't look like a very majestic emperor.
Zhu Er, on the other hand, was thinking a lot about Zhu Daohua.
He looks like a young version of Emperor Zhu.
He has a well-proportioned figure, extraordinary prowess, and very good grades - Emperor Zhu was a top student before he traveled through time, so his brain cannot be unsmart.
And Zhu Er almost completely inherited Emperor Zhu's academic master gene.
He has been number one in exams since he was a child - sometimes Zhu Da even secretly copied Zhu Er's homework.
It's so embarrassing.
When he arrived at the military academy, Zhu Er also stood out.
What particularly worries Luo Fangmei is that many staff officers in the army admire Zhu Er very much, and many new generation officers are Zhu Er's classmates.
Sometimes Queen Luo complained.
Why should Zhu Da be asked to study law, politics, and philosophy (old and new Confucianism, Wang Yangming's studies, and Western philosophers' studies)?
As emperor.
Isn't the most important thing to know, control, and lead the troops?
Good now.
The personal relationship between the prince Zhu Da and the generals of the future Ming Dynasty was not as good as that of Zhu Er, the king of Qin.
If Zhu Er doesn't go to the New World, Lai Zaizhong won't leave.
Queen Luo was afraid that she would not be able to sleep.
During this time, she also read history books.
in history.
When the second generation emperor of any dynasty takes over, there is basically something wrong.
Needless to say, Qin Chao.
Died at twenty.
What about the Han Dynasty?
After the death of Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, Empress Lu came to power and directly killed Liu Bang's eight sons.
There is no need to talk about small dynasties like Wei and Jin.
By the Tang Dynasty, everyone knew what Li Er had done.
In the Song Dynasty, there were also rumors about the sound of axes and the shadows of candles.
Waited until Lao Zhu's house.
Hey, there was also a situation where the feudal king caused rebellion and directly took away his nephew's kingdom.
Wait until the red dynasty comes.
Uh, I can't say that.
Anyway.
The transfer of any dynasty from one generation to the next will never be smooth.
The lessons of history come first.
Queen Luo also had to worry.
Now at least the biggest threat has gone to North America.
Next, as long as Zhu Da doesn't commit suicide, he should be able to become emperor around the age of thirty - Empress Luo knows Emperor Zhu, and he will probably choose to retire when he is in his fifties.
This may be the least diligent founding emperor in history.
Sometimes she even wondered whether Emperor Zhu was a descendant of Emperor Taizu - how could Emperor Taizu, a workaholic emperor who was known for his diligence and even abolished the prime minister system, have such a "lazy" emperor in government affairs? "Their descendants.
Think about it carefully.
Queen Luo hurriedly took back her thoughts.
Emperor Zhu looked at the five giant ships that were rumbling out of the military port.
It’s been laying the groundwork for more than ten years.
Now
Is it really time for a decisive battle?
This is a decisive battle between two civilizations.
Can eighteen-year-old Zhu Laoer withstand this pressure?
Although, in the Ming Dynasty's military system, the importance of staff officers is becoming more and more important.
However, as the supreme commander-in-chief, Zhu Laoer's role must not be ignored.
