Daming: From the end of Hongwu

Seeing this, Pei Boqi had no choice but to take the others down.

……

On the eighth day of September, Zhang Fu Mucheng defeated Li Jiyak and almost wiped out Annan's soldiers. Then Zhang Fu led his troops to pursue them non-stop, killing and chasing all the way to Qiluo Haikou in Rinan Prefecture, and wiped out Annan's remnants , Li Jiqian, his father and sons fled in several boats in a hurry, and finally with the assistance of the local people, they still could not escape, and they were all captured alive by Zhang Fu.

It was already mid-October when Zhang Fu escorted Li Jishu and others to Qinghua City.

During this period of time, Daming plowed through the entire territory of Annan like a sledge, and the results not only shocked all the people in Annan, but even some surrounding kingdoms were also frightened.

And too damn fast.

Annan is gone!

And this battle lasted for five months, and it finally came to an end.

At this time, Zhen Wu didn't shirk anything anymore, and after receiving the letters from Wanmin from the states in Annan and the petitions from Pei Boqi and others, he wrote another memorial and sent it to the capital immediately, asking Zhu Di to make a decision.

In this campaign, there were 48 state capitals, 180 counties, and 12 million households.

Opening up the territory for the Ming Dynasty also blew the horn of Yongle and prosperity.

after that.

Zhen Wu found Zhang Fu while waiting for Zhu Di's imperial edict.

Now Annan Wanmin is petitioning, and the interests of all classes are balanced. He has minimized the opposition of the Annan people to the Ming Dynasty's rule of Annan, and Zhang Fu will suppress it for another 20 years. He thinks that he will be able to assimilate the Annan people.

And Daming owns Annan, which has countless benefits for the Nanyang Peninsula and the exploration of the ocean. As long as future generations do not waste it, it will be enough to benefit thousands of years.

Zhen Wu said to Zhang Fu: "I have some things to go to Zhancheng next. After I leave, you will take care of the things here."

Zhang Fu also knew about this matter long ago, and immediately nodded in response.

Zhen Wu looked at Zhang Fu, organized his words, and said: "When I come back from Zhancheng, I will return to the capital without any accidents. At that time, you need to stay and guard Annan. You can also count on these days." With Annan's taxation, food and grass, it is most appropriate to keep a large army. In addition, although I have laid a certain foundation for Annan's situation, you still must not be careless, be more cautious, think more, and while implementing benevolent governance, don't forget to recruit a large army every year Get out and move."

Zhang Fu nodded yes.

Afterwards, Zhen Wu talked to Zhang Fu about many ways to assimilate Annan, starting with culture, especially the education of children, cultivating their respect and love for Ming Dynasty, and then the Annan people moved to the interior or guarded Annan military households to settle in Annan policies and the like.

In short, he talked a lot.

Zhang Fu couldn't help admiring him.

Who said that generals can't govern, he felt that if Zhen Wu followed the literature, he would be the first and assistant.

Zhen Wu didn't know Zhang Fu's psychology, he just told Zhang Fu what he knew and thought, and he sincerely hoped that Daming would be better.

He is from hereafter.

Clearly aware of the development of history, now it has gradually developed from land power to sea power, and then sea power will gradually develop to air power.

This is what is bound to happen.

The Central Plains has been a land hegemon for thousands of years. If they want to avoid humiliation in the future, they must keep up with the changes.

And the Central Plains wants to explore the ocean, and the help of the Nanyang Peninsula to the Central Plains is self-evident.

Only when Annan's situation is stabilized can Da Ming continue to advance the border into the Nanyang Peninsula.

Thinking of this, Zhen Wu sighed.

Speaking of later generations, China is only on the verge of a Pacific Ocean, which inevitably makes the mainland subject to the Strait of Malacca, but Yunnan is only a short 400 kilometers away from the Indian Ocean.

During this period, there was an interval of Myanmar.

But when it comes to Myanmar, it is not that China has never ruled Myanmar, nor is it that it has not explored in that direction.

During the Yuan Dynasty, Kublai Khan destroyed the Bagan Dynasty in Myanmar and established the Central Myanmar Province. It was the first and only time that Myanmar was incorporated into the country, and the sphere of influence was extended to the periphery of the Indian Ocean.

It is a pity that the Ming Dynasty did not implement further policies. In the early days of the Ming Dynasty, it was considered the leader among the Southeast Asian countries, and it established the "Three Announcements and Six Reliefs". The control in the Nanyang countries gradually weakened. When Burma produced capable people and established the Toungoo Dynasty, Ming's control over the Nanyang countries was basically rotten.

Zhen Wu suddenly found it ridiculous that Yongle sailed to the west with Zheng He, but it was so powerful that it shocked the world.

How did it become rotten?

Zhen Wu squeezed his fist unwillingly.

If there is a chance, Zhen Wu will let Da Ming take advantage of Zheng He's voyages and gradually control the Nanyang Peninsula in his hands.

Thinking of this, Zhen Wu suddenly wondered whether Zhu Gaosui should also be crowned king.

The king of Dian didn't know whether it was suitable or not.

I don't know if Zhu Gaosui has the ability, and then expand to the south.

Zhen Wu cried and laughed, forget it, let's take it step by step, Mongolia in the north is still eyeing it, and it is not a good thing to focus on developing the Nanyang Peninsula.

At present, there is such a thing as Annan, which will shock the countries in Southeast Asia and increase the control over the Pacific Ocean, so as to ensure that Zheng He can complete his voyages to the Western Seas, let’s talk about other things.

……

Chapter 392 - Want more?

The scenery of Annan is different from that of Daming, but for people living in Daming, they really don't like places like Annan.

When Zhen Wu and the others left Qinghua City, the villages were scattered along the way. The people at the lowest level, not to mention comparing with the rich gentry's family, even compared with the people in the city, they seemed to be people from two worlds. There is no trace of decency, and the mess seems to have never been baptized by civilization.

The land outside.

Zhen Wu couldn't help having a deeper understanding of this word.

Tsinghua City is not too close to Champa, and Annan is not considered safe, so Zhen Wu brought a total of [-] soldiers on this trip, and because there were a lot of soldiers, Zhen Wu and the others did not go fast along the way.

Zhen Wu was not in a hurry, he adjusted his mentality, and had the right to gain the knowledge of traveling thousands of miles.

However, Cheng Liang didn't have this kind of leisurely mood, and since he set off, he has been grimacing with worry.

On this day, Cheng Liang came directly to Zhen Wu's side and said, "Master, let's just say no to the king of Champa. Why do we have to act like that?"

Zhen Wu glared at Cheng Liang, and slapped Cheng Liang's head with hatred: "You elm head, let me ask you, if we clean up the Nanyang pirates, will it be good for Champa?"

"Of course there are."

"That's fine. We can't let Zhancheng take advantage of us for nothing. They have to ask us to do it. Otherwise, how can we get benefits? What's more, what they asked for, they will do their best in the future, and wait until next year After Zheng He went to sea, Champa was their first stop. How could Champa not cooperate with us? If there are any pirates, we will wipe them out. If we don’t find them, they will provide us with some. The distribution of forces around them or the nautical charts, etc., with these things, Zheng He and the others can also be more secure."

"But..." Cheng Liang still said with a bitter face: "I really don't know how to act in a humble job."

"Then you fucking go to school, you don't even know how to act, how can I let you out in the future, is it possible that you want to show me the door for the rest of your life?"

"I..." Cheng Liang was speechless, but his face was still a bit embarrassed.

Zhen Wu kicked Cheng Liang angrily, rolled his eyes and said, "Then I will ask you, do you still want Guanyin Bamboo, or Jialanxiang?"

Champa is located in the south of Annan. It is rich in ebony, Guanyin bamboo, Jialan incense, ivory and other special products. Especially Jialan incense is only produced in Champa. It is also called Qinan. It is the best agarwood. ', and there is still a price but no market, but in Champa, as long as there is porcelain, silk can be obtained.

Of course, Zhen Wu and the others didn't have the goods, but Zhen Wu didn't want to exchange or sell them at all. He was waiting for the old king of Champa to give them to him.

Cheng Liang's eyes lit up when he heard Jialanxiang, and his head lit up like a chicken eating rice.

"Fuck." Zhen Wu couldn't help cursing: "It's not impossible to ask you to do something, but if you hear the benefits, you're not welcome."

Cheng Liang scratched his head, grinned and said: "Who made that thing so valuable, we are reluctant to use it, and it would be good to exchange it for silver and send it back to the old lady in my hometown. You know, our bee tail alley is also broken I've been thinking about renovating the house."

His family was Zhen Wu's neighbor in Fengwei Hutong.

The friendship between the two is very deep.

"You don't need to tell me this, it's useless." Zhen Wu snorted and said, "I'll just ask you if you can do this well. If you do well, I'll give you an extra benefit later. If you don't want to, then I will let the monkey do it, believe it or not, if I tell the monkey, he will be very happy."

After struggling for a while, Cheng Liang finally nodded.

But then, he asked worriedly: "But let's just say a few words, can Champa believe it?"

"It depends on how you brag about it." Zhen Wu glared at him.

"But how can I brag?" Cheng Liang asked, but the next moment he saw that Zhen Wu was going to call a monkey, he quickly said, "Farewell, Mr. Guo, I will, I will, I will go down and think about it."

After finishing speaking, Cheng Liang turned his head and ran away, not giving Zhen Wu a chance to repent.

Zhen Wu couldn't help laughing and cursing as he watched.

……

Zhen Wu and the others stopped and stopped along the way, and arrived in Champa smoothly in November.

Speaking of which, Champa had a good relationship with Daming, and belonged to a relatively obedient vassal of Daming in the Nanyang Peninsula, but this was also because Annan often invaded them, and they wanted to use Daming's power to restrain Annan.

Annan is gone now.

The king of Champa was very happy at first, but when he heard that Zhen Wu was coming towards Champa with [-] soldiers and horses, he was so frightened that he couldn't sleep for several nights.

Annan died within a few months.

If Daming hit him, wouldn't that be easy?

In the past few days, the old king even went to the bathroom thinking about whether he had been disrespectful to Daming recently. Finally, he thought about it and thought that there was really no place to offend Daming, so he felt relieved.

When Zhen Wu arrived in Zhancheng, the old king led his courtiers to meet Zhen Wu outside the city in person.

As soon as the old king saw Zhen Wu and the others, he took the lead to meet Zhen Wu and the others without taking too much money. Zhen Wu got off his horse and began to greet the old king and the others with a smile.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the old king led Zhen Wu and others towards the city.

The streets in the city have long been cleared by the soldiers, but this still cannot stop the curiosity of the people in Champa. Both sides of the street, whether on the road or in the attic on the second floor, are crowded with people.

When these common people saw the elite soldiers of Ming Dynasty.

One by one couldn't help but exclaimed.

What a mighty man.

No wonder the group of Annan monkeys were bloodbathed in a few months.

"hero."

Some people shouted.

Immediately afterwards, the voices of shouting for heroes rose.

Zhen Wu was a little puzzled, and the old king explained: "There have been many blood feuds with Annan these years, and now the Duke leads people to destroy Annan, and we are all very happy."

This…

Zhen Wu felt quite surprised, and what surprised him even more was that when they came to the palace, there were people in the attics on both sides of the street who voluntarily scattered flower petals down.

Zhen Wu didn't know the specific petals.

Anyway, it is very beautiful when it is fluttering.

This made Zhen Wu feel that hatred is really a good thing.

"The subjects of your country are really warm." Zhen Wu sighed.

The old king smiled. Seeing Zhen Wu's appearance, he finally let go of his previous worries. He was really afraid that such a murderous talent like Zhen Wu would cause trouble for them regardless of Sanqi 21.

"Mr. Zhao was joking. I have been friends with Daming for several generations. Now that Mr. Zhao is here to ask me to occupy the city, I will naturally welcome him warmly."

Zhen Wu nodded, smiled back and said, "If your country will send you an envoy or pay tribute to Daming in the future, please be sure to notify me in advance, so that I can do my best as a landlord."

The old king agreed with a smile.

After arriving at the palace, the banquet had already been set up. The old king brought several important courtiers to entertain Zhen Wu. After thirty days of drinking, the old king asked about the business.

"I don't know why the Duke came here this time?"

Zhen Wu put down his quick jokes and said with a smile: "This time I took the order to conquer Annan, the lord of the country should also know that before departure, my Emperor Ming asked me to visit you. Now that Annan is over, I naturally want to find an opportunity to see the country. Lord, I will also discuss with you the border issue between your country and Annan."

"Thank you so much, His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. After the Duke returned, please ask the Duke to greet His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty on my behalf. As for the Duke of the border, don't be too anxious. It just happens to be a little more in my Zhancheng. I call me the most promising one." My son will accompany the Duke," said the old king.

Zhen Wu should be.

Afterwards, the topic of the two parties turned to the more relaxed romance, but as they talked, they didn't know what happened, and the topic of everyone actually talked about pirates.

Cheng Liang, who had been standing behind Zhen Wu, couldn't help but chuckled in his heart.

This topic went back and forth, but Zhen Wu kept dragging it away.

But he also knew that it was time for him to play.

He had imitated many times along the way before, and now he was not nervous, so he pretended to be carefree and said, "Duke, since Champa has been suffering from pirates, why don't we help and destroy it easily? It doesn’t take much effort.”

"Shut up." Zhen Wu frowned and scolded, "Is there something for you to say!"

After reprimanding Cheng Liang, Zhen Wu turned his head and apologized to the old king: "The people below are used to being savage, no matter how big or small, the king should not blame them. Although the pirates are vulnerable, mobilizing troops is not a trivial matter. No one dares to start a war without the permission of His Majesty the Ming Emperor."

Cheng Hao seemed very unwilling, and still muttered: "The Duke went to ask His Majesty, and His Majesty would not allow it."
