"My ancestors, Zhu Youjian, the sixteenth emperor of the Ming Dynasty, has come to fulfill his oath!"
“When I first ascended the throne, the DPRK and China were constantly fighting with each other and excluding dissidents.
In the north of the Ming Dynasty, Mongolian tribes invaded the border; in the northeast, slaves were created to cause harm to the Ming Dynasty; in the southwest, there were chieftains and Yao people causing rebellion; in the southeast, Japanese pirates invaded and harassed the country.
Officials are greedy for enjoyment and are full of corruption. It cannot be said that the situation is dire, but it is at least the most difficult moment for the Ming Dynasty in more than two hundred years.
I can't sleep at night, walking on thin ice, fighting cautiously, fearing that if I make a wrong move, the Ming Dynasty will fall into a place of eternal disaster.
Fortunately... I won!
After I ascended the throne, I calmed down the party strife, recruited good ministers, reorganized the military equipment, and led the army from point to point, thus preserving the foundation of the Ming Dynasty.
Then I found the treasonous traitors, gained a lot of wealth, and enriched the national treasury. Only when the treasury was sufficient did I dare to let go and set up an agricultural research institute to study how to increase food production. Potatoes and sweet potatoes were already being promoted, with an output of more than ten shi per mu.
I also established an Industrial Research Institute and a Firearms Research Institute to research equipment that can improve work efficiency and enhance the power of firearms.
I am very lucky and have produced various advanced achievements.
In the first year of Chongzhen, I relied on these facts to lure the enemy deeper and destroyed nearly 70,000 Jiannu coalition forces in the First Battle of Longjingguan.
In the second year of Chongzhen, he came out of the grassland, annihilated the slaves, crippled Ordos, recovered Tumut and other tribes, and increased the territory of the Ming Dynasty by tens of thousands of hectares;
In the third year of Chongzhen's reign, I went on a personal expedition and led a large army to attack the north. I destroyed an army of more than 400,000 from Jiannu, Mongolia and Fusang. Liaodong was recovered, all the tribes in Eastern Mongolia surrendered, and Korea surrendered and was included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty.
Since then, the territory of our Ming Dynasty has increased by nearly 700,000 hectares.
This time I brought some things to the Imperial Ancestral Temple to offer prisoners. The first one was the 'Great Khan' who built the slaves! "
When Chongzhen said this, he turned sideways and glanced at the kneeling man outside the gate: "Nuo, that's the kneeling man. I castrated him and won't bring him in, so as not to stain the eyes of our ancestors. !
This person sounds pretty powerful, he can be considered a hero, but it's a pity that he met me, so he is unlucky!
I forgot about it after a while, so I sent him to Ling Chi to comfort the tens of thousands of people who were slaughtered by them! "
"The second gift is the map of North Korea and the king's seal. You, Taizu, should like this.
You old man wanted to kill this guy who was doing one thing on the surface but another behind the scenes, but he died before he could do it.
Today, I have fulfilled your wish, and they are now completely included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty! "
Having said this, Chongzhen stood up, placed the map of North Korea and the seal of the North Korean royal family in front of Zhu Yuanzhang's memorial tablet, and paid homage.
"The third thing is the letters of surrender from the various Mongolian tribes and the jade seal of the state. I don't know whether the jade seal of the state is true or false, but the trophies obtained from the tribes directly descended from Genghis Khan,
Taizu's thirteen northern expeditions and Chengzu's five northern expeditions. Although the Mongolian tribes were more honest, in the next two hundred years, they repeatedly invaded the border and even besieged the city of Beijing twice, which was a great shame and humiliation.
It can be said that the Ming Dynasty was at its peak for half a century and suffered for two hundred years.
But things are different now. I have attacked the Mongolian tribes within hundreds of miles of the Ming Dynasty Great Wall defense line. I have destroyed a few tribes, maimed a few tribes, and surrendered a few tribes. There will be no wars along the Great Wall defense line for at least several decades. happened.
There are others further away. Once I free my hands and feet, I will lead an army to cripple them.
From the Great Wall to the Onan River and Langjuxu Mountain, everything will be included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and the Mongolian tribes will be the subjects of the Ming Dynasty.
This day won't be too far away...well, within three years! "
"You have to believe in me, I am confident!"
After Chongzhen finished speaking, he brought the tray from the table over and placed it on the incense table.
"This one is called Potato. It is a tribute from foreign barbarians. Shenzong, Guangzong, and Xizong should have seen it. This thing can produce ten to twenty dan per mu!"
"This one is called sweet potato. It was brought back from Luzon by Fujian businessman Chen Zhenlong, who risked his life. The yield per mu is about ten to twenty dan. In the future, it may be more than 30 dan.
When there was a great disaster in Fujian, most of the villagers in the east and west relied on this to survive. "
"These two things are my first confidence. They can make the people have something to eat. After all, only when they are full can they have the strength to work."
Chongzhen took out a potato and sweet potato from the tray, placed them on the incense table, and explained the origin and output.
I also complained secretly in my heart, Ming Dynasty has this good thing, but the people above don't know how to promote it.
If it had been promoted ten or twenty years earlier, how could I have been so passive?
After all, the real drought will begin in five or six years, and the entire Ming Dynasty promotion will take time.
After complaining, continue taking things from the tray.
"This one is called Palm Thunder. After it is ignited and thrown out manually, enemies within a three-meter radius will be killed or injured! Whether it is used to attack a camp or break an formation, it can be said to be a magical weapon!
Regardless of whether he is a peerless military commander or is more intelligent than Zhuge Liang, he will all be finished. "
"This one is called Sky-shattering Thunder. It's a little heavier and bigger. It needs to be thrown by a trebuchet. If you are within three meters, you will die. If you don't die within five meters, you will be crippled. Anyone within ten meters will be injured!"
"This one is called a flintlock gun. It is fired without a match rope..."
…
"This one is called a flying thunder cannon. It has a range of more than two hundred meters and can run while carrying it. It made a great contribution in this battle to the north!
Taizu and Chengzu, if you two had such firearms back then, even if you only had a hundred of them, you would have completely crippled all the Mongolian tribes. "
"This one is called a hot air balloon, it can fly into the sky.
If you don't carry heavy items and only carry fuel, you can probably stay in the sky for a few hours. This thing made great contributions in the Battle of the North and the attack on Nijo Castle in Fuso.
Oh, by the way, when you mention Fusang, I get angry. These beasts repeatedly invaded the coastal cities of the Ming Dynasty, burned, killed and looted, making the people miserable.
When the army has rested and firearms supplies have caught up, I will send the army to fight across the sea, completely cripple this despicable nation, and then enslave it for generations! "
…
Chongzhen placed the prepared firearm models and equipment models made of pure gold on the incense table.
Then, like a chatty talker, he told the purpose one by one.
No, this is not describing its use, but rather showing off to the emperors of the past dynasties.
"My ancestors, with my martial arts and martial arts, I can at least rank third in the Ming Dynasty. Taizu, Chengzu and I,
But after all, I am still young and have only been on the throne for more than three years. In another three to five years, sorry, I will definitely be the best emperor in the Ming Dynasty. I hope Taizu and Chengzu will not be angry! "
"Okay, let's stop chatting here for today. I'm quite busy today.
After I seal the wolf in Xu, drink the vast sea of horses, level the island in the east, and cripple the few small vassal states in the south that broke away from our Ming Dynasty, I will chat with you again! "
Chongzhen stood up, patted the non-existent dust on his butt without any image, stared at the fifteen tablets for a few breaths, then turned and left the Xiangdian.
Looking at Huang Taiji kneeling at the gate of the Imperial Ancestral Temple, Chongzhen said calmly: "Take him for a parade. I'll go to the temple again. When I'm done, I guess the parade is almost over!"
