This, this is not the same as I thought!Why does the various rules of Ming Dynasty always feel weird.

In the era when Mubai lived, the shipbuilding technology was generally poor at that time, and the waves were high and the water was deep, and there were often bad winds that destroyed the port. Ships could only travel along the coastline. No matter how careful you were, the number of shipwrecks and fatalities still reached two to three out of ten. .

But even so, there are still a lot of people who go to sea, especially in his home country, where the inland rivers are often frozen and blocked, and there are bandits making troubles, and it is easy to be spied on by interested people, so most of the transportation is on the coastline.

At that time, several of their coastal countries developed by relying on the intercommunication of sea transportation, and later they became famous by relying on their rich family background.

That's why he can't understand what Daming is doing now.

Judging from Mr. Wang’s books, sea transportation is no longer a problem at all. Many goods from countries that Mubai has never heard of can be imported to the Central Plains by sea. The book also says that a large ship like a building can be built now. .

Under such development, why is shipping banned instead?

Mu Bai pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked: "Is this pirate... very powerful?"

"No, not strong." He got an unexpected answer when he asked this question, "It's just that the pirates commit crimes sporadically, and the regular army retreats immediately. When the officers and soldiers retreat, they harass again and again, which is very annoying .”

"The coastline of Daming is long, the bottom of pirate ships is shallow, and the water quality is excellent. Most of the coastal areas can be landed, so the defense pressure is extremely high. Now there is even more Bei Yuan watching. His Majesty directly blocks the coast for the safety of the people on the beach. plan."

Mu Bai nodded, understood, it's not that he can't fight, it's just that the opponent is harassing, if the whole line is deployed, the loss is too great, it's better to draw salary from the bottom.It’s just that he was still a little confused: “Are the pirates robbing merchant ships?”

"Yes."

"Then...if there are tribute ships, official ships, or fan ships coming in and out, wouldn't they still be able to plunder?"

"Therefore, Your Majesty has withdrawn the shipping departments of Quanzhou, Mingzhou, and Guangzhou, and only opened Liujiagang to the outside world. When envoys come and go, they will be escorted by sea ships."

Simply put, this is to change the defensive surface from a surface to a point, which increases the effectiveness of the defense.

Well, this idea also makes sense.

However, Mu Bai still didn't understand one thing. He shook the brush in his hand: "It's not easy to break through the scattered crimes of pirates, so why don't you issue a message to their suzerain country to restrain them?"

Mu Chun gave him an appreciative look, but...

"Most of the pirates are Japanese, but the Japanese royal family is too busy to take care of themselves now, and it is difficult to restrain their subordinates."

Then, Mu Bai heard a story about love and hatred in the neighboring island country.

To put it simply, the royal family next door encountered a situation similar to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. The armed forces of the country were not satisfied with the rule of the king and rebelled. However, their king was lucky. The stuff fled to the south of the country and established a government.

In the north, there is a new king supported by armed forces, and the north and the south are facing each other.

In the north there are real but not real names, in the south there are famous but not real ones.

"What's more, Japanese invaders not only plunder property, but also people." Mu Chun sneered, his fists were clenched, and a look of evil flashed in his eyes: "These inexplicably increased foreign populations are used as labor force. It would be impossible to say that those two kings really didn't know."

It's just pretending to be confused. After all, when Japanese pirates go to sea, labor and wealth are real benefits.

As for the relationship with Daming?

Hey, isn't that family a North-South war?If they were really approached, all they had to do was tell Daming that it was the work of the other's black fans.

Of course, Japan still has the confidence to dare to do such a thing.

"There are often bad winds in Japan, and the water is deep and fast. The previous dynasty attacked Japan three times, but they all returned without success because they were not good at naval warfare." Mu Chun obviously thought about these things. I don't have much experience in naval warfare, if I start a war rashly, I will definitely pay a high price."

Of course, the most important thing is: "Japan is small and poor, with few fertile land and no mineral deposits."

To put it bluntly, this place is poor, with little land and poor people, and there are typhoons. If it is really included in the Ming Dynasty, it will take a lot of effort to manage it. The investment cost is too low, it is simply a piece of chicken ribs.

——It is exhausting to fight, and it is annoying if you don't fight.

In addition, Bei Yuan was always on the verge of making troubles, and Hong Wudi, who didn't want to fight on both sides, temporarily played a idle PLAY.

However, Mu Bai had a different opinion. He tried his best to recall the mine list that his friend told him to memorize before he logged in, and Japan seemed to be on that list.

Looking at the azimuth map represented by circles drawn by Mu Chun casually on the paper, I always feel that the location of Japan is a bit familiar. Isn't this the Fusang country that had traded with Yan country at the beginning?

At that time, he had heard people complain that the Fusang country was extremely poor, the clothes were made of linen, the tableware was made of wooden bowls, and only their king could afford silk and so on.But that country can grow rice, and what else can it produce, which makes Yan Guo frequently trade with it.

What is it... It seems to be very important to the human race, but because it is of no use to him, Mu Bai didn't remember it.

... Forget it, it’s not important, anyway, there must be good things, there are only a few leftovers, and then it’s time to find a way to turn it over slowly. As long as the profits can offset the cost of launching a war, the emperor of Ming Dynasty should be willing to do it Bar.

As expected of the difficulty of the upgrade task, it seems simple but it is full of pitfalls. If he followed his previous plan, Mu Bai now only has two paths.

One is to enter the court and become an official and gradually upgrade, and then try to persuade the emperor to reopen the coastline, which may have to consider the issue of sending troops to fight the bandits.

This path is relatively stable, but it takes a lot of time and has many variables. The most important thing is to study... Mu Bai really doesn't want to endorse it anymore! !

One is to go wild, find a way to go to sea by yourself, and break the situation with external force. The island country next door is a good platform for actual combat.

Mu Bai has some experience with this method. As long as he has funds and connections, it should not be a big problem, but the timeline may be longer, and he must be far away from the Central Plains. He may have to learn another or even a few languages. Think about it. Makes you bald.

Tsk, no matter what kind of task it is, it is not an easy task. No wonder it is a long task to give a child a body.

From his point of view, he would definitely choose the latter, but...

Thinking of the two words that Mr. wrote on the back of the letter, Mu Bai licked his back molars, suppressed the impulsive emotions and then calmed down, so that he could continue to write vigorously on the paper.

What he is doing now is translating some vocabulary written by Mu Chun into vocabulary in the local language, and marking the pronunciation.

However, because there is a difference in pronunciation between the Chinese he studied and the Chinese used by Mu Chun, Mu Chun had to read it again after writing to see if he could understand.

This work is a bit trivial and often needs to be reworked. This is the opportunity for the two to start the chat mode.

It's just a bad news from Mu Chun, which made the room fall into silence. Just when Mu Bai was thinking about inquiring about the Japanese pirates, Mu Wen, who was lying on his stomach to catch up on sleep, suddenly overturned his clothes cleverly. Sit up straight.

Under the astonished gazes of the two teenagers, the child's eyes were blurred, and his little nose was sniffing in the air again and again. He didn't know what he smelled, and his eyes that were originally closed were instantly rounded.

"Dinner is ready! Wen'er is going to get the meal!"

While talking, Mu Wen put his little feet into the tiger-toed shoes, and then, regardless of his elder brother's reaction, his little short legs walked quickly, picked up a small straw basket given to him by an inmate who didn't know, slipped into it out.

This small movement was so swift that even Mu Bai didn't have time to reach out to stop him, he could only watch helplessly as Mu Wen jumped out of the barracks and rushed towards the food soldiers.

Mu Wen was small, so he disappeared in an instant, but fortunately, Ahua Peacock at home also went out with him.

Ah Hua, who had already molted, successfully elongated her figure by relying on its long tail feathers. Its figure with its tail dragging was like a giant broom, successfully leaving Mu Wen with nothing else within two feet of her body.

Accompanied by its running, there was also its loud and clear cry. With its call, soldiers gradually gathered from the side, and the originally quiet residential area suddenly became lively.

That's right... Ah Hua has now replaced the sound of knocking on the pot when the cooking soldiers issued reminders with its loud voice and become a new signal for cooking.

Ah Hua, although you look embarrassed when you run like a big broom, you are really pretty when you protect your little master.

Mu Bai held his chin and complained.

The author has something to say:

No CP means that although there is no good-looking little brother, there will be many good-looking little brothers, of all kinds and styles, and this is just one, why are you so anxious.

Xiaobai's thoughts are actually very straight-line. He lived in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period when human life was like an ant and he was not educated by Confucianism. It was an era when he would die if he didn't fight or fight, so his thinking is to think first. To achieve what purpose, and then think about what means to use, just compare the straight line ==

As for whether he can do it or not, he didn't want to. It should be said that people in that era would not think about what would happen if they failed, because hesitation would lead to defeat, so people in that era were very "absolute" in doing things. To survive for oneself, almost every day is a decision to fight with one's back. This is a particularly cruel but charming era, and it is also an era in which talents emerge in large numbers. (After all, ordinary people can't keep their names)

So Mr. Wang has been asking him to read Confucianism and Buddhist scriptures, just to suppress his anger, and prevent this student from becoming irresponsible. The rules of the unified dynasty and the Spring and Autumn and Warring States are different. The weight of authority in the kingship It's not the same. In that era, one could slip away if one was not good, but not now.

Japan was in the Southern and Northern Dynasties during the Hongwu period. The author doesn’t know much about Japanese history, and the information is also checked online. If it’s wrong...well, it’s wrong.

In fact, the story goes like this. There was an emperor in Japan who was dissatisfied with the samurai in the shogunate era and decided to seize power.So he tried every means to launch resistance activities, but failed repeatedly, and was later exiled.

And it happened that there was a samurai who was also dissatisfied with the tyranny of the shogunate, so when the shogunate sent him to quell the chaos, he defected, and the shogunate perished.However, after the emperor came to power, the samurai did not get the treatment they wanted. The world the emperor wanted was to be respected by the imperial power and nobles. There was no such thing as a samurai, and the samurai himself wanted to return to the time of the shogunate, so the samurai rebelled again and forced the emperor to abdicate. , and then set up another emperor to succeed him, and was granted the title of [General Zhengyi] (remember this ID) and became the de facto ruler of Japan.

But the old emperor had already overthrown the shogunate once, so how could he be content with the current failure? With the help of his ministers, he escaped with the three artifacts of Japan, and successfully fled to the south to establish a new correct. Because he had the three artifacts, he proclaimed himself Orthodoxy, this is the Southern Dynasty.

Since then, Japan has opened the history of the two governments of the South (the emperor with three artifacts) VS North (the regime dominated by the general).

And in this process, the founding of the Ming Dynasty, of course, the founding of the Ming Dynasty, must send a letter to the surrounding countries to say that according to the rules, when a dynasty is established, it must inherit the vassal state of the previous dynasty. They came, but Japan didn't send anyone. This is too disrespectful. Coupled with the continuous Japanese pirates and the lack of communication, Lao Zhu is very annoyed at Japan as a country.

It’s just that there was no money and no one at that time, and Japan was indeed a difficult country to fight, so Emperor Hongwu endured it, but he still wrote a poem to scold others. Old Zhu rarely wrote poems to scold others, ahem, generally They were all hands-on, and the poem was called "Wafan Xing" swearing at people without rules, that the king has no way and the people are thieves, and they always walk barefoot (after the Han Dynasty, people are respected by wearing shoes) and so on.

However, the relationship between China and Japan is quite delicate, because when Emperor Hongwu founded the country, the grandson of the Northern Dynasty of Japan was already in power, and the grandson was Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, the general in Ikkyu. The book requests to restore the tributary relationship with Daming. (At that time, the only trade method accepted by Daming was the tribute. In a sense, the tribute = doing business. It can be regarded as the official acquiescence to take advantage of you.)

However, Zhu Yuanzhang believed that the Southern Dynasty was orthodox, so he refused.However, the Southern Dynasty that Emperor Hongwu admitted was all about fighting against Ming Dynasty. It is said that he even wrote a provocative letter saying that if you have the ability, you can fight me (the Yuan Dynasty once conquered Japan three times, all of which ended in failure. It is really not easy to fight against Japan in the era of cold weapons. , so Japan is completely out of square)

Later, when Emperor Hongwu was about to die, the Southern Dynasty of Japan couldn't hold on anymore, and sent the three artifacts to the Northern Dynasty for peace. The northern government's request for tribute, Jianwen Yongle Japanese troubles a little solution.

However, after Emperor Jianwen was sent away by his uncle, Japan began to test the threshold of Ming Dynasty again, which made Emperor Yongle very unhappy, but Japan was included in the country that the old father wrote back then, so, so, he went to Japan to make friends Visited =w=

It was Zheng He who went there, and Japan will be at peace after returning.

That's right, Zheng He had practiced his hands before sailing to the Western Seas. The result of this practice is that the imperial edict and seal given to the Japanese emperor by Emperor Yongle are still there, but this seal... ahem.

The original gold seal was lost during the war in Japan. The current one was secretly carved out of wood by the Japanese to deal with Daming.

Although the gold seal is lost, the box is still there, and it seems to be the only treasure in the world now. (like)
