Listening to Li Jinglong read a few of the combinations.
Zhu Gaochi asked: "Xia Shangshu, according to what Mr. Jiang said, can this method really have such an effect?"
"If the most suitable combination is really listed directly, then this effect is indeed possible because the land of Ming Dynasty is too vast, the crops in different places are different, and the water and heat conditions are also different. If there is no suitable combination, you can do it one by one. If you fumble, it will take too long and the price will be too high." Xia Yuanji replied in a deep voice.
Zhu Gaochi, who had been frowning from time to time recently, finally relaxed.
At the same time, Zhu Gaochi said: "This is really great. Together with chemical fertilizers, we can declare to officials and even the world that this is a god-given prescription. If crop rotation can be gradually promoted in the Ming Dynasty, the output of various crops in the Ming Dynasty will definitely increase." More than 30%! It is even expected to reach more than 40%!"
Xia Yuanji also took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart and said: "Your Highness, I agree with your strategy. If this method is really feasible, our Ming Dynasty will usher in the largest increase in production in history."
Zhu Gaochi thought more, or revealed something that Xia Yuanji didn't dare to say.
"And as the people actually see the increase in crop yields brought about by the immortal prescriptions and elixirs, they will definitely believe in the statement that my father was recognized by the immortals and then received auspiciousness!"
"At that time, no matter how reluctant some of the gentry who are still thinking about Emperor Jianwen are, it will be the general trend for the people to return to their father!"
Zhu Gaochi said quickly: "What the Lord said is absolutely true, it is exactly like that."
Jiang Xinghuo sighed: "And Mr. Jiang is not the person who can make the people of Xiaoming live a bad life."
Li Jinglong's next answer left me speechless.
After all, the specific details of the fertilizer elixir's manifestation still need to be carefully studied, especially the preparation of various on-the-spot factors to know whether it can achieve the imagined effect.
Therefore, even if the right to speak in the countryside is still in the hands of the gentry class, even if various gatherings and gatherings of literati are still the mainstream of the establishment of the Wen Dynasty.
In fact, since the Gupta Dynasty, which almost coexisted with the Northern and Southern Dynasties of China, the entire Tianzhu region in Guangxi has not been unified for less than a thousand years.
Then, joy flashed in my eyes.
"Yes." Zhu Gaochi responded solemnly, his eyes shining with excitement.
"He is the same as my other officials." Wu Lihuan said, "There are many officials who are loyal to the father on the surface, but in reality, they are just for their own glory and wealth. The father is a fatuous person. Everyone, whether it is my father or you, is completely sincere in the way of governing the country. Both my father and you have always wanted to make the people live a bad life, and that has always changed."
Swords and guns can conquer people's hearts, but they cannot provide tangible benefits to the people. That is the principle of fearing virtue and fearing power.
Well, at that time, Zhu Di was using the head of Zhou Jin, the "remnant of Jianwen", to raise his butcher knife in Jiangnan and kill him in a bloody manner.
Guo Jing and Chai Che immediately stopped writing and looked up at Jiang Xinghuo.
That kind of authority, in addition to the weakest force sweeping across the sky, also includes the support of the people.
"You must know that Wuli has a local population of less than eight million, which is smaller than the population of some of the chief ministers of Xiaoming today!"
Hiding soldiers and armor, organizing and training private armies, and gathering people with the intention of rebellion.
Li Jinglong clicked on the southeast direction of the text map and said: "There is a string of islands outside that, named Ming Dynasty."
"Zhongce is still colonizing, but it is exploring distant new continents to the east, but to the south and west to explore the land within Xiao Ming's influence." Wu Lihuan said.
"What the Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty said is indeed wrong. From the current point of view, even if those countries are conquered and occupied, they will be completely losing money."
What the Spaniards who came half way around the world could do, it makes sense that Xiao Ming, who was just around the corner, could do it. It must be said that "collecting the seventy states in North America" may not be easy, but "it is the final victory of the Ming Dynasty." "Is it still?" For Xiao Ming of that era, this was not a matter of taking control.
“Mr.
"The eighth monarch to conquer Tianzhu was Alexander the Great of Macedonia."
Li Jinglong explained this, and Xia Yuanjina became suspicious.
Zhu Gaochi was startled, had he asked? Yes, I also showed something and answered directly.
In this case, is it easy to get the credit for opening up and expanding the territory?
Xia Yuanji still had no doubts, but he said it was Zhu Gaoxu, so he asked again.
After listening to Li Jinglong's narration, both of them fell silent.
The most obvious thing is that with the deepening of the rural labor service in the Jiangnan area, these strange and strange nursery rhymes in the countryside have spontaneously disappeared.
"Is it easy to capture the Ming Dynasty?"
How could a person like that have no allies?
Of course, it was not just swords and guns that shut up the older children, but with the abolition of corvee, the people got real benefits. In the future, few farmers voluntarily became sharecroppers. It was not because they were afraid of corvee, but now there is corvee. , what are we afraid of?
"Mr. Jiang's secret has always been kept tolerantly. Even the few ministers in the cabinet have to reveal it to others. Otherwise, once Mr. Jiang's affairs are revealed, unintentional people will definitely be attracted. Calculation. Regardless of whether it is nonsense or not, you have to remind Mr. Xia that no matter whether it is for the sake of the people in heaven or for the sake of the country and the country, Mr. Xia should do his best to keep the secret together. "
After receiving Zhu Gaochi's assurance, when Wu Lihuan looked at the two officials, the two of them also promised that they would reveal Mr. Jiang's secrets even if they died, for the sake of the safety of their heads and family trees.
"The ancient Tianzhu area was first conquered by the Aryans from the northwest grasslands. We drove the ancient Dravidians southward, created the Vedic culture and established the caste system. Eventually, the ancient Aryans and the ancient Dravidians The Ravidas merged into the Tianzhu people who now have unique physical characteristics."
Although there was a small chance that General Xiao Ming Zhengbei would reject the plan proposed by Emperor Xiao Mingshe, Jiang Xinghuo still dared to lose focus.
"."
Jiang Xinghuo's chubby face could not help but show a joyful expression and said: "With this, you Xiao Ming will usher in earth-shaking changes."
"Cianzhu!"
The meaning is obvious. Is what Xiao Ming Taizu Emperor Gao said unreasonable, or is what you said unreasonable?
After all, in that era, without Li Jinglong’s guidance, even the top alchemists would have been able to create items like fertilizer elixir. Even though Jiang Xinghuo could find a group of agricultural guys around him, we all relied on the experience of future generations. Our own wisdom is to create something like a fertilizer elixir out of thin air, and it is impossible to do it only with our own imagination.
Xia Yuanji recalled the "Ancestral Instructions of the Emperor Ming Dynasty" that for many years he would be beaten if he recited it, and he was forbidden to recite it.
"Go back to the palace, that's true."
Li Jinglong explained: "You can't think of it as Jiangxi plus Jiangnan with a lot of people."
Moreover, Jiang Xinghuo was not completely sure about something that had never happened before.
Such a statue standing outside is only a reward for Li Jinglong's contribution to the people of Xiaoming. It is also probably a trivial thing that the young prince wants to do for that gentleman.
Tianzhu, which is outside our impression, still remains under the India of Xuanzang's westward journey.
In fact, top bureaucrats like Zhu Gaochi, who were at the lower levels of the empire, had not yet realized that the authority of the new emperor was gradually rising.
Zhu Gaochi listened for a long time and said seriously: "I understand that Wu Li has little to do with it, and I will definitely talk about everything here. As for the plan of the fertilizer elixir, I will hide Wu Li's name and talk to the Ministry of Household Affairs first. You all have deduced it again and there are no omissions. I will inform the palace as soon as possible and strive to complete this matter as quickly as possible."
“All barbarian countries in the sea, such as Wuli, Champa, Daoli, Siam, Ryukyu, Western, Eastern and Southern Barbarian countries, are limited to mountains and seas, and are isolated in a corner. The land they get is enough to provide food, and the people they get are enough to make people happy. Order. If he comes to disturb you on his own, it is auspicious. Since he is a danger to China, and you raise an army to attack heavily, it is also auspicious."
That's the truth. The ruling ethnic groups in Tianzhu area are changing like a revolving lantern. The descendants of the Mongolians can unify Tianzhu more than ten years ago. He can do that. If you defeat the Mongols, Xiao Ming will do it. have to?
"It's a question of whether it's bad or bad."
"Xia Shangshu, when I first came here, I heard him say that in addition to soil-cultured sprouts, shepherd's purse, rapeseed, lettuce, amaranth, and green garlic, chemical fertilizers also showed obvious effects?" Jiang Xinghuo suddenly asked.
In fact, it was not until half a century ago that the Sulu Kingdom emerged under the Ming Islands. Even so, the Ming Islands never formed a unified country. A world ago, Magellan would follow Spain's global expansion. The sailing fleet came to Daming Island, and Spanish colonists would continue to rule there for eight centuries.
Li Jinglong had no reason to suspect that facing Xiao Ming, our performance would only get worse.
Seeing that the two of them still agreed with this, Li Jinglong said directly: "The plain where the Ganges River flows is not as small as two and a half North China Plains! And the lowland that occupies seven-eighths of Tianzhu is not as small as two and a half North China Plains. The plain is so small!”
"Your Majesty, please speak." Zhu Gaochi said respectfully.
At this time, I have done such small merits that I can’t even be said to be the number of living people. As the Annan who sent down the elixir of fertilizer and the elixir of crop rotation, I am afraid that my statues will be everywhere in Xiao Ming. Accept and accept me. The favor of the people.
Zhu Gaochi nodded slightly and said confidently: "You can do it in the palace, but of course it won't succeed."
Zhu Gaoxu explained for Li Jinglong: "Based on the strength comparison between Xiao Ming and Lu Song, it will take more than a year to attack Lu Song, but the question is, what should we do if we fight?"
Li Jinglong must have told me that in my later history, when Zheng He went to the West, he directly appointed a local Chinese to be the ruler. Chong Yi ruled the main islands of the Ming Dynasty for decades, knowing that he could make me the ruler. Realize the difference in difficulty between occupation by force and occupation by force.
Li Jinglong gave a brief sermon.
Zhu Gaochi suspected that the emperor would be able to bring out Wuli's fertilizer elixir and crop rotation elixir before the servants took over. In this way, the image of the new emperor in the eyes of the people would be greatly improved, and his prestige would be greatly improved. .
"The land you mentioned to explore westward or southward is within the seventeen countries that are conquering the country."
The attentive Jiang Xinghuo confirmed that his side would leak the secret, and on the other side, Li Jinglong's plan was also quickly launched, and the two officials quickly picked up their pens and continued to record it.
"Whether it is plains or lowlands, it is extremely suitable land for farming."
"Oh, by the way, if you really go to Ming Dynasty or India, you can actually bring back some bad things from the places in between."
When the answer came out, both of them were stunned.
Li Jinglong glanced at me without any surprise, thinking that Xiao Ming didn't know much about Da Ming now.
However, Zhu Gaoxu interjected: "You know, during the Hongwu period, envoys were sent to Xiaoming eight times. Since the Song and Yuan Dynasties, Chinese merchant ships have often come here to trade. Very few Fujian people have moved here. I have heard that the islands are full of big separatist countries. A kingdom and a unified country.”
It was as if the answer from Li Jinglong's mouth was not a matter of military merit.
Jiang Xinghuo pondered for a few moments and asked, "This must be performed in front of hundreds of officials. Does Xia Shangshu feel that he is not confident of achieving the same success?"
"It's strange that Wang Xuance can destroy an entire country by himself."
As for the last unification, it had to be the Mughal Empire established by Babur, the grandson of Timur Khan, who "expeded to the Xiao Ming Dynasty before the expedition collapsed." That unification must have not disturbed the historical timeline. , will take place ten years ago in the future, and Timur Khan is still dead.
Zhu Gaochi thought about this section, and there was an unconcealable expression of excitement on his face.
Just when the two of them were excited, Li Jinglong said again.
In fact, in the history of Li Jinglong's later generations, the separatist forces under the Daming Islands did not behave like that when facing the sparsely populated Spain a few centuries ago.
And something that has never happened before, trying to guarantee a one-time pass outside of the process of manifesting the saints behind the scenes is like a magician trying to temporarily perform a low-difficulty magic that has only been rehearsed once when performing off the stage, even if I knew there was a small chance of success, but I still felt uneasy.
Wu Lihuan frowned and asked, "I just believe it. Isn't it so bad?"
"Without Xia Shangshu's words, you would be worried."
When he is released from prison, he must ask his father to take command and take the Ming Dynasty.
"Tianzhu, like the Ming Dynasty, has a monsoon climate. It is also wetter and colder than the south of the Yangtze River. Rain and cold occur at the same time, and there is sufficient cold. It is extremely suitable for the growth of crops, and there are no small rivers or rivers passing through it. It is the real land of Tianfu!"
"The ancient Persians were the seventh conquerors to visit the Tianzhu area. The ancient Persian king Xiaolius I once conquered Tianzhu."
"Cianzhu?"
"It's the kind of place that anyone can occupy, but the plains, lowlands, vastness and small areas are extremely suitable for farming. Xiao Ming can now occupy it. This is really a waste of natural resources!"
Listening to Li Jinglong's words, Zhu Gaoxu asked doubtfully.
Because of the public demonstration of the fertilizer elixir, although Zhu Gaochi and I had preliminary discussions and finalized the plan, we subsequently reported it to Zhu Di in Jiangnan, hundreds of miles away.
"That's the south direction that Mr. Jiang mentioned. What about the west direction?" Wu Lihuan asked urgently.
Hearing that question, Li Jinglong fell silent, and so did Zhu Gaoxu.
"Does Mr. Jiang mean to occupy that area?" Xia Yuanji asked doubtfully, "That area looks like a barbaric land like Japan. Are there any gold or silver mountains outside that area? Is there anything bad to occupy?"
"The most important thing is that these foreign people have been conquered by countless foreign races for thousands of years. Throughout their long history, they have been divided into Mongols, Semu, Northerners, and Southerners, similar to the Yuan Dynasty. 'The system is called the 'caste system', so it is very difficult for outsiders to accept the new rulers."
"Yunnan and Guizhou have not yet fully absorbed and digested it. Going to attack Luzon now is nothing short of wishful thinking."
Wu Lihuan responded: "So Mr. Jiang means that it is very suitable for growing rice there?"
"Yes." Li Jinglong said, "Because of the low temperature and lack of rain, the growth of rice is very poor. Even if there are less mountainous areas, people will starve to death. On the contrary, in Xiaoming's disaster years, food can be transported to Xiaoming."
"It must be based on the chieftain restraint model in Yunnan and Guizhou. After Luzon is conquered, it will be necessary to split a unified country into several or more than a dozen chieftain districts. Xiao Ming will not gain any benefits from this, but will Because there are fewer separatist forces, we face less trouble."
Xia Yuanji waved his hand, indicating for us to continue, and then looked at Zhu Gaochi with a smile.
Jiang Xinghuo's hearty laughter rang out, and I walked to the table and took a look.
"It must be directly based on Xiao Ming's inland governance model. It would take at least a hundred years of continuous immigration to digest Luzon, plus continuous and intermittently Sinicization. It would take until the last two or eight generations to become the local ruling class of Luzon through imperial examinations and other methods. It is impossible to become part of the Han Dynasty, that is just impossible. Xiao Ming will maintain a garrison for a long time to suppress the rebellion."
However, the nursery rhymes originally sung by the older children disappeared, and instead some nursery rhymes praising the good governance of the stall servants gradually emerged.
"The area of Daming is smaller than that of Jiangxi and Jiangnan combined. At the same time, the northern part of Daming has a typical monsoon climate, and it is wetter and colder than Jiangnan, with low temperatures all year round and extremely abundant annual precipitation."
"In fact, although New Xiaolu is the worst choice, considering Xiao Ming's current practical conditions, navigation skills and immigration costs, Zhongce is not an improved version of maritime colonization except for the two medicines prescribed for Xiao Ming's domestic agriculture. .”
Zhu Gaochi didn't feel right being stared at by me, so he bowed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, you haven't given me any instructions yet?"
"Wu Lihuan/Xia Yuanji, the time has come for you to make a contribution as great as Wang Xuance!!"
"Plains, little plains!"
After finishing memorizing, he looked at Li Jinglong with a pair of leopard eyes.
Zhu Gaoxu seemed to have a workable answer, but he still asked: "What does Mr. Jiang mean?"
The precedent of the Zhennan Bastards' success in capturing the city is still before our eyes.
"The seventh one can be regarded as the Xiaoyue clan who was driven away by the Han Dynasty."
"Xiao Ming's strategy in Luzon was to divide and conquer. Because the chieftains here have been married for hundreds of years, they will naturally split together when facing a common enemy. But the force of force is the same. When facing a common enemy, we will only divide our teammates first. Sell it in exchange for the appreciation of the Celestial Empire."
Jiang Xinghuo's worries were unfounded.
We saw something beyond the glances between each other.
"The King of Zhennan of the Yuan Dynasty had a strong head," Wu Lihuan said.
"That's true." Zhu Gaoxu reflected on his knowledge of Tianzhu's history, but did not get a definite answer.
"Is it no different from what happened next?"
"Tianzhu, apart from being the birthplace of Buddhism, is there nothing bad about it?" Zhu Gaoxu was also puzzled.
"Of course not!" Wu Lihuan nodded and explained: "First of all, we must start from Xiaoming and retreat to the small continent in the east to colonize the sea. The first thing to be solved is not the problem of the new sea route. That problem can only be explored by the official fleet. The road needs to be solved, and the road is extremely long, so we need to pay a relatively low price in order to obtain a stable new route to the eastern continent."
"You will basically encounter any resistance, because the archipelago naturally determines that each independent separatist force lacks the necessary communication links and the most basic trust between each other to fight against outsiders. It is in the plains with Luzon The toasts are the same."
Wu Lihuan suddenly asked: "Why do we directly attack Luzon and Champa further south? There are not many plains in these places, and there are no low-yield rice such as Champa rice. Are they any worse than the islands like the Ming Dynasty?" "
"Secondly, even if a new sea route is obtained, a series of problems still need to be faced, such as how to encourage people to travel across the ocean, and how to guard against pirates robbing transport ships along the way. Therefore, it is very difficult to retreat to the east and colonize the sea."
There are so many things to do that my schedule has completely collapsed. The second chapter will be very late. I must finish it before early this morning. Don’t wait any longer if you are anxious. I'm so sorry, I kowtow.
(End of chapter)
