The military parade is an excellent opportunity to showcase the quality, will, military equipment, and combat capabilities of the sergeants.
Zhu Yunwen believes that Ming Dynasty needs to show off its muscles.
In the East China Sea, the Ming Dynasty occupied the Ryukyu Islands. Except for some islands in Japan and Korea, all the islands in the East China Sea belonged to the Ming Dynasty.
In terms of Nanyang, the Ming Dynasty owned Jiaozhi County and Jiugang Xuanwei Division. This year, it also controlled most of Bo Ni Island and several surrounding islands. In particular, it set up the Nanyang Navy, and the main force of the navy was stationed in Nanyang. This stimulated the Nanyang countries. It must be quite big.
Although the Nanyang countries did not dare to complain with their mouths or resist with their hands, it is hard to say whether they drew a circle and cursed Zhu Yunwen and the Ming Navy behind closed doors.
There is also Wala, Mahamu is a tolerant wolf and a very capable alpha wolf. Although he surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, this surrender was only because of the fear of the battle of Qamdo.
More than two years have passed since the Battle of Qamdo La. It is hard to say whether Mahamu will still be as afraid of the Ming Dynasty as before.
Misjudging the situation and feeling good about oneself may lead to the growth of ambition.
If you want to make these people shut up and stay on their own territory, don't think about driving away Ming's sergeants all day long. The best way is to show strength.
Sun Tzu said that those who subjugate the enemy without fighting are good.
Zhu Yunwen decided to use an unprecedented military parade to intimidate the surrounding countries and tell them that the Ming Dynasty has super strength, but the Ming Dynasty is still peace-loving and stays at home safely. If you are plucking the wool, don't take advantage of it.
Zhu Di, Tie Xuan, Xu Huizu and others were shocked when they heard Zhu Yunwen's "military parade" plan. This was an attempt to show off force to deter those with bad intentions.
wonderful!
Tie Xuan strongly supported: "Your Majesty, the current Beijing army is different from the past where it only has infantry and cavalry. It has the conditions to form different military formations for review to show the power of the army and intimidate the younger generation. I believe that the feudal vassals and the Hu people should be invited to the royal family as much as possible." Check with important people."
Xu Huizu seconded the proposal: "There are still five months until the National Day next year. It is difficult for the Western countries to know, but the Southeast Asian countries, North Korea, Oara, etc. have enough to send people to inform them. On the grounds of celebrating the 40th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, they will definitely send their royal families Come with important people.”
Yang Rong, Xuan Qingshu and others nodded repeatedly.
Forty years after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, a national celebration and a grand military parade were to be held. Anyone who did not come would not show respect to the Ming Dynasty. Anyone who sent unknown soldiers did not understand etiquette and could not distinguish between good and evil, and they were barbarians.
The Ming Dynasty has always had the habit of conquering barbarians...
Yang Rong listened to the finalized military parade and said: "Your Majesty, I think that since this military parade is going to be a big event, it is not appropriate to only invite guests from outside the territory. We should also invite prestigious elders from all over the country and invite local officials from the southwest. "
Xuan Qingshu glanced at Yang Rong and was secretly surprised. No wonder Yang Rong was so highly regarded. This man's resourcefulness was terrifying. Others were thinking about intimidating the enemy and looking beyond the territory, but he was uncharacteristically focused on the territory.
Yes, local elders are extremely important. Although these elderly people have limited mobility, they have considerable influence in the townships and counties. When Lao Zhu founded the country and ascended the throne, one of the witnesses was the elder.
Inviting local officials is the most powerful thing.
In the spring of this year, local officials in two prefectures of Guangxi rebelled. Although they did not cause any trouble, they caused trouble in many counties and killed more than 10,000 people. Now is the time when the native officials are uncertain, and the next order is for them to come to the capital to have a look, so as to lay the foundation for stabilizing the southwest and returning the natives to the countryside.
Thinking about what others have not thought about and seeking what others have not thought about, this is Yang Rong.
Xuan Qingshu admired the person in front of him.
Zhu Yunwen glanced at Yang Rong appreciatively and nodded in agreement: "That's right, the Jurchen leader will also be invited."
Everyone responded.
Zhu Di left the matter of the military parade to the Ministry of War and the Fifth Army Governor's Office for discussion first, and he devoted more energy to the construction of the cavalry and artillery battalion.
Xu Huizu, Tie Xuan, Yang Rong and others were responsible for discussing the specific matters of the military parade, and carried out the design and training of the military parade array in accordance with Zhu Yunwen's requirements.
Time flies to July 28th.
A steam engine ship slowly docked at Longjiang Pier, and Wang Shuo, the director of the joint museum, and others were waiting.
Andogawa, the former leader of the Ainu people of Sakhalin Island, walked out of the cabin and was shocked when he looked at the wide and flat dock in front of him. The ground seemed to have been smoothed, and there was no unevenness at all.
This is a huge dock with many ships moored around it. What is that? Why did the Ming Dynasty build tall buildings in the water? What? That is a treasure ship. You guys? Call such a tall thing a ship?
Think about the small wooden boats on Sakhalin Island. They don’t even have sails, and sometimes they have to hold the wood and paddle with the dog. The Ming Dynasty has already built tall and invincible giant ships directly in the water and the sea!
"How many sergeants can the treasure ship accommodate?"
Andeng Chuan asked Jiang Zicheng, the general manager next to him.
Jiang Zicheng shrugged: "With the army and horses, three thousand can still be accommodated. If necessary, five thousand is no problem."
Andogawa opened his mouth wide, and Yamabe and Nota who were accompanying them also couldn't help but widen their eyes. One ship can actually accommodate so many people, enough to transport the Ainu people from Sakhalin Island back to Hokkaido Island in one go.
"This is the head of Huitong Hall."
Jiang Zicheng introduced.
Andeng Chuan didn't know the identity of the principal, so he only bowed respectfully.
This is the etiquette of the Ming Dynasty that I learned on the road. Except for the emperor, it is correct to perform this ceremony when seeing officials.
Wang Shuo returned the courtesy and welcomed you with a smile: "Wise leader of the Ainu people, the emperor has learned of your arrival and has sent us to the city to rest in the hall and choose a day to see the emperor."
Andeng Chuan quickly agreed, said a few polite words, and got into the carriage.
Looking at the comfortable carriage, Ando Kawa didn't know where to put his hands. He always felt that the curtains were very smooth and beautiful, and the cushions were very comfortable. What were the two exquisite ceramics placed under them? They were used for eating. of?
Oh, you said those two, one is a spittoon and the other is a chamber pot, not for eating.
Andeng Chuan felt a little angry, how could you Ming people waste so much natural resources? Such exquisite and peerless ceramics, which are considered treasures in the world, were actually used for them. Bah...
Wang Shuo opened the curtains, looked at the scenery outside, chatted for a while, and stopped the carriage all the way outside Tongji Gate.
The sergeant guarding the city gate checked the identity.
Wang Shuo walked out, and Andengchuan and others also got off the carriage.
Andeng Chuan raised his head and looked at the tall and solid city wall, his face a little pale. This is a city that can only be built by gods. How are the stones put together? Do the people of Ming Dynasty have infinite power?
The sergeant looked very powerful, and the spear in his hand shone coldly in the sun. They were looking at themselves, and Wang Shuo was introducing them, seeming to explain the situation.
The sergeant waved his hand, giving permission to enter the city.
Wang Shuo came back and invited, "Chief, please get on the carriage."
Andengchuan looked at the long city gate and asked, "Can we walk in because we want to see the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty's capital."
Wang Shuo heard this and laughed loudly: "Of course you can."
Andeng Chuan turned around and looked at the busy river outside the city. There were still many people carrying goods at the dock. Walking towards the city gate, a cool breath hit my face. Compared with the scorching heat outside, it suddenly felt much cooler.
The thick bricks and stones are so thick that not even a leaf can fit into the gaps between them. There is some dampness at the bottom and some moss growing on it.
Wang Shuo looked sideways at Andengchuan, who was walking slowly. Andengawa sighed: "Such a strong city will be able to live without worries for thousands of years."
If the Ainu had such a city, who would care about the Yamato nation, and who would care about Ashikaga Yoshimitsu?
After walking out of the city gate, Andeng Chuan looked aside and saw a sergeant riding a horse up the city wall. He couldn't help but said in horror: "Can't a horse also go up the city wall? "
Wang Shuo didn't know how many years this leader had not left the mountain. He didn't even know this bit of common sense, so he could only say patiently: "The city gate you walked through, there is the city wall above your head. With such a wide city wall, it is not easy to walk." matter."
Andeng Chuan was deeply shocked. It turns out that there is a city in this world that protects his homeland like this.
Entering the city, Andogawa and his party were confused by the prosperity in front of them. When had Sakhalin seen so many people? It seemed that people from all over the world had rushed here, and there was no end in sight for their heads.
Walking into the street, there are rows of shops on both sides. There are also some stalls outside the shops, and the sounds of shouting and bargaining are endless.
"What's this?"
"Oh, that's candied haws, something to eat."
"What about this?"
"That's a rouge shop, for women."
"what is that?"
"Restaurant, a man's favorite place."
"Oh, the bar where many women are waving is also a bar. I saw many men entering and smiling happily."
"This, I guess..."
Andogawa finally entered the Huitong Hall. As soon as he sat down, he saw himself clearly visible in the mirror. He couldn't help but jump out and shouted: "Here, there is an ugly monster hiding here!"
"Oh, that's you."
Wang Shuo was well settled and very tired.
Over the years, I have received many envoys, but this is the first time I have been so exhausted. I am a country bumpkin. I am definitely a country bumpkin. No wonder Yang Wen was called back and sent such a group of savages. It would be unreasonable not to be called back and scolded by the emperor.
Andokawa looked at his ugly self in the mirror, crying, and realized that he had not come to the Ming Dynasty, but to the world of gods.
Yamabe and Nota knelt in front of Ando River.
The mountainside whined something.
Andogawa stroked Shan Bei's head and said solemnly: "Yes, we are in the right place. The Ming Dynasty is powerful and can definitely save us Ainu people. I will pay all costs and ask the Ming Dynasty to help us. Ye Tai, why are you crying again?"
Nota choked up and said: "The food here is so delicious..."
