My Daming New Empire

But they were decades late...

From the rise of rebellious consciousness in the late Qing Dynasty to the melee of warlords in the Republic of China, the collision of various ideologies and cultures has led to earth-shaking changes in ordinary people's perception of the world.

Therefore, even if they almost occupied most of the Far East, it was already too late.

The awakening of national consciousness and the transformation of the world's colonial history from land possession to economic control made the Dongying people finally end in failure.

Having said that, although Zhu Zhanji feels that Japan and North Korea are burdens, he only wants to use their productivity, but he does not want to be dragged down by their population.

But it seems very feasible to separate politically and unify ideologically.

North Korea, Dongying and Ming Dynasty are basically the same race, and in appearance, they are more similar to Mongolians, Tibetans, and ethnic minorities in Southwest China than Han people.

Moreover, they are also deeply influenced by Confucian culture and have the same cultural roots. This kind of ideological unity is very feasible.

Although the Southwest and Beiyuan are not of the same race as the Han people, Zhu Zhanji will never give up political unity because of the connection of land.

Although they are destined to become Daming's burden at the economic level, there is a need for political unification.

Dongying is isolated overseas, with only two neighboring countries, Ming and North Korea, with a lot of people and little land, and the land is barren, so it is a natural source of human resources for Ming.

The unity of thought can make them serve Daming wholeheartedly.The political division does not belong to a country, but the Ming people live better than the Dongying people. This will make the Dongying people become a Daming person as the goal of their life.

As long as the level of the world does not change, every Dongying person born in Dongying will strive to become a Daming person.

This is more beneficial than Ming directly ruling them.

As for North Korea, although this place is connected to the mainland, the country's natural environment is similar to that of Japan, and it cannot become a stepping stone for the development of Ming Dynasty, so Zhu Zhanji has not considered them yet.

Anyway, they are treated the same as Japan at present, maybe 100 years from now, they will cry and want to join Daming.

Along with the Ming Fleet, hundreds of representatives of Dongpu also left Japan. They, headed by Ashikaga Yoshitsugu, the fifth general of the shogunate, presented their credentials to Ming Dynasty.

At the same time, they are also some upper-class people who admire Daming culture and want to maintain a closer relationship with Daming.

Besides politics, there's economics...

For a country that has no food to eat and no clothes to wear, it is lucky for them to be able to buy these things through gold and silver in the mountains.

However, after thousands of years of long-term exchanges, Dongying not only wants to buy, but also wants to create by themselves.

Therefore, it is also the consensus of the people of insight in Japan in this era to learn from Daming in an all-round way.

Of course, Zhu Zhanji will not teach them the most advanced technology, but it is still possible to teach them some low-level technology through industrial adjustment, and then affect their domestic economy in this way.

Of course, Zhu Zhanji will never let them eat enough, because this country is a white-eyed wolf, and if they are fed, they will expect more.

Anyway, it is to hang them up and give them some benefits, but they can't feed them too much.

These Dongying people didn't know Zhu Zhanji's thoughts. Although Daming burned Osaka this time, and even almost burned Kyoto, he also directly suppressed a large number of generals and famous masters in power.

Those who can come to Daming with them have more or less gained some benefits, and they are currently loyal to Daming.

The joint trade has become a free trade, and most of the generals and famous masters want to establish a deeper cooperative relationship with the internal supervisor of the Ming Dynasty.

Especially the local tyrants who have some minerals on their own territory, they want to expand their strength.

Ashikaga Yoshisuke can be regarded as the happiest one this time, and he easily became the leader of Dongpu, which he never dared to think about before Daming sent troops.

Since he was a child, he lived under the power of his elder brother, like a dark cloud, hanging over him.

Now that the dark clouds have cleared, even the royal family has been taken away to Daming. In today's Dongpu, apart from the rebels in the south, there is nothing to worry him about.

He was of little help militarily, so Yasuko Hino and Mitaka Ashikaga sent him to Daimyo to show their goodwill.

Two months ago, he couldn't believe that he could become the master of Dongpu, because the power of Ashikaga Yoshichi was too great.

In fact it is.In history, he also rebelled this year, but unfortunately, in the original history, he was the loser.

After his rebellion failed, Ashikaga Yoshichi imprisoned him.After being imprisoned for two years, the influence was not so great, so he was killed directly.

"Commander Ji, where are we going now?"

Relying on his close relationship with Ji Gang, Yamana Shili did not take a boat with other masters and generals, but mixed a cabin on the Jinyiwei boat.

Ji Gang also needs to win over a dead-hearted ally near Iwami country. Although Yamana Shili has become the guardian of Nagato country, he is still the weakest.Because he is the weakest and needs to rely on Daming's support, Ji Gang feels that he is more worthy of support.

Of course Ji Gang knew the route of the fleet, and said with a smile: "Now the Zhongshan Kingdom basically rules Ryukyu. His Highness Taisun agreed to his request and will go to Ryukyu, so we have to go around."

This trip back to Daming, Ji Gang was ready to step down as the commander of Jinyiwei.Although the next official position has not yet been determined, Shi Jianguo has been promised to him by his grandson, and this time when he returns, he will bring all his family members to Japan.

Daming couldn't stay any longer, even if he had made great contributions in Dongpu this time, he had controlled Jinyiwei for more than ten years, and he did not know how many enemies he had made.

In order to quell public anger, no matter how much Zhu Di paid attention to him, he would not offend a large number of civil servants and military generals for him.

Therefore, it is safer to stay away from the vortex of Daming. His resignation, which is tantamount to exile, can at least quell some public anger.

Now that the grandson has agreed to let him become the guardian of Shi Jianguo, even though there is only one county, it is much better to be a local emperor here than to stay in the country.

What's more, although Dongpu is poor, Shi Jianguo is not.Others regard Japan as a land of barbarians, but he likes this kind of country with distinct levels.

Because here, he can justifiably dominate.

As the royal family of Dongying, more than 200 members of the Guanghe family boarded a treasure ship alone.Apart from the sailors on board, there are only some internal eunuchs of Daming serving them.

Although Dongying has learned everything from the mainland, it is the only eunuch culture that has not been learned.

This is mainly because the royal family of Japan is not a centralized royal family, and their franchise-style political system does not make people willing to castrate themselves to serve them.

Secondly, the animal husbandry in Japan is not developed, and their domestication of livestock is very backward.Not to mention that in ancient times, even during the period of the Eight-Power Allied Forces, their military horses had never been gelded.

Why, because no one knows this craft!

Therefore, their royal family generally use the noble daughters of the general's mansion and the master's mansion to serve them.These noble girls usually enter the palace to serve for a few years when they are teenagers, and then go back to marry.

When they were taken to Daming, except for a few female officials who were willing to follow, most of them returned home.

It is impossible for the royal family to be left unattended, among other things, such things as washing clothes and emptying the toilet can't be left to their princes and princesses to do it themselves.

But Zhu Zhanji told them not to worry, there are many eunuchs in Ming Dynasty, just like them, just arrange 200 people to serve them.

And with the eunuchs of Ming Dynasty, they can monitor their lives even more.

Different from other beaming people, all members of the royal family are worried. Although the Ming Dynasty is prosperous, their fate can no longer be in their own hands.

Moreover, the General's Mansion is only willing to give them 20 taels of silver every year. This money can only maintain a relatively decent life, and it is beyond their ability to do more.

Living only on routine money, many members who are used to all kinds of luxury feel that the future is dark.
