In "Piaohailu", Cui Pu recorded that women in the south of the Yangtze River all have left-hand gussets. To the north of Cangzhou, their clothes are either left or right-sided, and from Tongzhou onwards, they all have right gussets.

Even the right margin of the Huayi debate is no longer observed, which shows the openness of the social atmosphere!

In this book, the people of the Ming Dynasty do not call themselves "people of the Ming Dynasty" - but "people of the Tang Dynasty". They call their country not "the Ming Dynasty", but "the country of the Tang Dynasty".

The openness of the Ming Dynasty and the inclusive mind of the Zhu family emperor can be confirmed in this book.

When Cui Pu returned to North Korea, he passed through Liaodong and other places and witnessed parts of Nuerqian with his own eyes.

According to his records, Ming Dynasty's control over Liaodong was still very strict.

Cui Pu recorded that Nuerqian had prosperous society and stable people's livelihood. This is confirmed by the fact that in the late Wanli period, the Ming Dynasty still had 384 guards in Nuerqian.

Cui Pu's strange journey refutes the Ming Dynasty's control of the Nuergan area, and it is not the slander that some people have only said for a few decades!

It can be seen from this that in the early days of Hongzhi, after the governance of Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen and Ming Xianzong Zhu Jianshen, father and son, the Ming Dynasty prospered and its military strength was huge.

Military discipline is strict and even in inland provinces like Zhejiang, soldiers are still mobilized quickly.

The frontier was so vast that Nuergan was still under the absolute control of the Ming Dynasty army.

This is not only completely different from the impression of people today.

Even the images of Zhu Qizhen and Zhu Jianshen as father and son recorded in Ming history and literati's notes are completely different!

And in the history books, the literati boasted about how patriotic and caring they were, but this is completely different -

The military has strict discipline!

And what about civil servants?

Cui Pu recorded several times that he was asked for bribes by civil servants!

——If you are a civil servant, you will openly ask for bribes.

I have to say, this is really ironic!

……

The degree of openness of the Ming Dynasty was no less than that of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

This is not only reflected in the way women dress, nor is it only reflected in the fact that women can go shopping.

Even the right paragraph of the Huayi debate is no longer observed——

This is enough to prove that the territory of the Ming Dynasty is no longer limited to the core territory of the Han family in the past.

Only the vastness of the territory and the integration of a large number of new people from the frontiers have made the Youjin, the core of the Huayi debate in the past, gradually forgotten.

According to Cui Pu's records, Zuo Ren is common in the Jiangnan area, precisely because this area is the dominant place for maritime trade.

The influx of a small number of Yi people is called "fancy clothes".

If a large number of barbarians wearing strange clothes come in, it will naturally lead some people to imitate them and even lead to social trends.

If so, it's called fashionable.

This is once again confirmed by the ancient books of the Ming and Qing Dynasties that called Suzhou's new style goods "Suzhou style".

The Jiangnan customs recorded in Cui Pu's records confirm my inference from the side - the Ming Dynasty's sea ban policy only banned overseas trade under the leadership of the royal family!

In fact, Cui Pu recorded that in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, Zuo Ren was common in Jiangnan. In addition to proving the prosperity of overseas trade in Jiangnan, it also illustrates two other issues -

"Why are the three pillars of Western Nestorianism all from Jiangnan? Why did missionaries develop followers so quickly after Xu Guangqi!"

Without him!

Only profit!

After Xu Guangqi joined the Western Nestorian religion (Nestorianism: Christianity), he was required to hand over at least 10% of his property every year!

Is he a saint?

Abandoning your own interests to help others?

Please remember that in any religion, 99.% (the infinite cycle of nine) of those who believe in it devoutly and keep the creed in mind all the time are bottom believers!

Senior level...

Ha ha!

What you are playing is marketing, and what you want is a profit!

Religious fanatics can only and will only emerge from the bottom believers.

The top religious leaders are just profit-seeking.

I don’t dare to say that it is absolutely correct, but it is definitely in line with the norm.

Whenever a group creates a class, it will generate interests...

……

The people dress casually, and they no longer abide by the right collar, which is the basis of the Huayi debate.

And Zhu Youjian still wanted to continue to promote Youren in the Ming army.

Persevere and subtly integrate the naturalized people into China, instead of letting China become a reverse integration.

True to origin——

This is what Zhu Youjian has to do.

……

In fact, the reform of military uniforms also plays a decisive role in improving the strength of the army.

A set of armor, even the lightest chainmail, weighs more than ten kilograms, not counting weapons.

Cotton armor and zha armor are heavier.

In fact, the armor worn by the general weighed dozens of kilograms!

In any era, protection is an important part of an army's combat effectiveness!

In the age of cold weapons, what is needed is thick armor that can resist being slashed by swords and shot by arrows.

Even if mobility is sacrificed, it is still tolerable in the face of gaining greater combat effectiveness.

Today's Ming Dynasty has entered the era of primary firearms, and the original bulky armor has begun to hold back.

Even the skirts that were specially lengthened in the past to protect the legs are no longer important.

After all, after being equipped with grenades and the multi-barreled Glory series, the Ming army no longer relied heavily on hand-to-hand combat to win.

Universally equipped with leather armor, the physical suppression of the soldiers has become the highlight of Zhu Youjian's life.

A group of craftsmen from the Ming Dynasty designed a new type of leather armor after careful verification.

The new armor not only cut off the skirt, but only had a top.

Even the arms are only half-sleeved armor that protects the crooks of the arms.

With such a drastic reform, a set of leather armor inlaid with stainless steel breast guards weighs less than ten kilograms.

The saved weight can be used to equip a few more grenades, and the combat effectiveness of the Ming army will be doubled!

After the battle with Yier Dusi, he obtained the carcasses of hundreds of thousands of cattle, sheep, horses and mules. How could Zhu Youjian be short of armor-making skins?

The establishment of Longzhou became the bridgehead for controlling the grassland.

After the Ming Dynasty - there will no longer be a shortage of leather armor!

The arrival of Zhu Youjian has brought about earth-shaking changes to Ming Dynasty...

……

The emperor, who was sitting high on the horse, raised his eyes and looked around.

On the side of the infantry, there are three small phalanxes.

Their military uniforms were painted in colorful colors.

This is the Ming Dynasty leather armor version of the camouflage uniform ordered by Zhu Youjian.

These small square formations are the special forces of the Ming Dynasty.

The leaders of the troops were all eunuchs of the military supervisors.

They have only one name - Yongwei Camp.

Although these soldiers number less than [-], they are the guarantee that Zhu Youjian can not be afraid of anyone!

It is also a magic weapon he left to his successors.

Wang Chengen set up a series of arsenals in the mountains of Yunyang (later Shiyan) to manufacture weapons for the Yongwei Battalion.

The military will not be equipped with 12-barreled glory pistols on a large scale, but they all have one!

Even the Fuhan guns in their hands are no longer paper bullets, but copper fixed bullets!

Internally named Thunder Gun II.

This is to commemorate Zhao Shizhen...
