I, the grandson of the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty, earned 100 million taels at the beginning

After a long time, Jiang Huai slowly opened his eyes, ignored the pain in his body, got up and got out of bed, and opened the closed door.

"Master Commander!"

All the generals outside the door were sitting in various places in silence, not saying a word.

After seeing Jiang Huai appear again, they stood up and greeted in surprise.

"Why do you come to me, do you want to gather people to rebel!"

Looking at the lieutenant general looking forward to him, Jiang Huai didn't give everyone the kind words they expected, but directly reprimanded him.

The generals who had been scolded all over their faces were bewildered. They didn't understand what kind of trouble was committed today. His Highness got angry for no reason, and his head also became like this for no reason.

Ignoring the generals who were stunned in place, Jiang Huai pushed everyone away and strode towards Zhu Zhangui's resting place.

The generals behind also hurriedly followed, wanting to know what happened.

He limped to the outside of Zhu Zhangui's room, Jiang Huai looked at him with a cold face, nodded to Hu Yu who had put his hand on the holster, and knelt silently at the gate of Zhu Zhangui's courtyard .

When the generals who followed saw this scene, a trace of astonishment flashed in their eyes.

There was a clever one who seemed to have figured out something, looked at Jiang Huai, looked at the room where the lights were still on, sighed softly, stepped forward and knelt behind Jiang Huai.

And some people who don't understand or pretend to understand, still stand where they are, with complicated or calm or blank eyes, looking at everything in front of them.

Staring at those people who stood still, Hu Yu's eyes became colder and colder. If Zhu Zhangui hadn't ordered him, he would have drawn his gun without hesitation and killed all those who betrayed Zhu Zhangui.

The next day, the Shenji Battalion was reorganized, and many officers were transferred away for various reasons, some were demoted to soldiers, and some were directly transferred back to Jinling.

Then the guard battalion of His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun filled these vacant positions, and the integrated army prepared to attack the Western Regions.

Not only the low-level officers, but also the high-level officers have undergone major changes.

According to the notice, Jiang Huai, the commander of the Shenji Battalion, was removed from his position as the commander of the Shenji Battalion due to a serious violation of military discipline, and was transferred to the logistics department as the logistics commander.

In addition, two of the three legion commanders were transferred away.

One was transferred to the Cavalry Battalion as Bi Mawen, and the other was transferred to Huotou Camp as the chef in charge.

Among the vacant positions for the two, one was filled by Hu Yu, the chief bodyguard of His Royal Highness the Taisun, and the other was promoted from the grassroots.

At the same time, the reason for this round of major changes was gradually guessed and spread in the barracks.

Many veterans of the first batch of Shenji Battalion shook their heads and sighed when they heard about this reason.

They all sighed.

Some people have been officials for a few days, and after a few days of good life, they forget their last name.

Chapter 266: I made you mean, but didn't let you open the door and surrender.

Since Zhang Qian of the Han Dynasty opened up the Silk Road in the Western Regions, the word Western Regions has been circulating in the annals of Han family history.

Folks have various stories and legends about the mysterious places in the Western Regions.

Of course, this was only in the Han and Tang Dynasties, and there was not much spread in the Ming and Song Dynasties.

After all, neither of these two Han dynasties opened the Silk Road, so there is no such thing as the Han and Tang Dynasties, where the capital is the Hu people.

Pacifying the world, conquering the north, and opening up the Western Regions seem to have become the founding route of every Han dynasty.To become the most powerful empire in China's history, these three things are indispensable.

The main reason why the name of the Han and Tang Dynasties moved the world is that they spread the prestige of the Great Han of the Tang Dynasty to the West through the Silk Road in the Western Regions.The armies of the Great Han and Tang Dynasties were even more prestigious in the countries of the Western Regions.

But looking at the entire history of China, there are only a few who can reach the three most basic stages of this powerful country. Even Daming, who has the hardest bones behind the world, has not reached the third stage.

Originally, Daming had this opportunity, but unfortunately there were too many wastes, so he missed this opportunity in vain.

Lao Zhu fought all his life, settled domestic affairs, and let the neighbors around him know the prestige of Daming, and they all came to worship the mountain as younger brothers, and took the first step of a powerful empire.

If Zhu Biao inherits the throne, the empire will continue to move forward and become another powerful empire after the Han and Tang Dynasties, and even surpass the Han and Tang Dynasties, creating another world-famous, powerful empire is also very possible.

It's a pity that Zhu Biaoying died young and hadn't taken the country to prosperity. He left the country early, and his father and his brothers and sisters went to another world.

In fact, even if Zhu Biao is gone and his son Zhu Xiongying is still alive, Daming will still be no worse, and will still be prosperous and strong.

After all, Lao Zhu's feelings for Zhu Biao and Zhu Xiongying are not comparable to those of Zhu Di, Zhu Pangpang and other sons and grandchildren.

In the eyes of Lao Zhu, Zhu Biao is the real son, and the other sons are princes.

As for the grandchildren's generation, except for Zhu Xiongying, the others are only ordinary relationships, and there is no family relationship at all.

It's just a pity that Zhu Xiongying left earlier than his father, and Lao Zhu appointed two heirs, both of whom left this world before him.

To be honest, Lao Zhu's fate is quite tragic.

Parents passed away when I was young, and my childhood was upside down, living a life without enough food and clothing.

It was hard to survive until he became the emperor, but his grandson, son and wife left him one by one, leaving him to live alone in this world.

This is also because Lao Zhu is the emperor. If he was not the emperor, he would have been scolded as a broom star long ago.

After all, when he was young, he beat his parents, and when he grew up, he beat his grandson and his son, what is this?

Grandsons and sons left one after another. Although Lao Zhu was sad, he still had to choose an heir.

Zhu Zhangui couldn't figure out what his great-grandfather was thinking.

So many excellent sons did not choose, and among a bunch of tigers and lions, they found a pig as the heir.

Zhu Yongqi, a stupid pig, didn't want to strengthen the empire, but instead wanted to cut down the feudal clan, almost destroying the basic set that Lao Zhu had prepared.

Fortunately, my old man worked hard enough to kick his disappointing nephew away, and took over his father's banner to move on.

To be honest, the old man told Zhu Zhangui in private more than once.

At that time, he never thought about the possibility of success at all, and even planned to lose the battle, and then he had the idea of ​​committing suicide.

Zhu Zhangui agrees with this very much.

After all, the gap in strength between the two at that time was too great. The old man was completely smashed, and he was really going to die if he didn't try his best.

In the early days, he was defeated many times in a row, and the old man was about to be beaten to despair. Two great saviors appeared.

One is the selfless seventeenth prince Ning Wang Zhu Quan, and the other is the god of war Li Jinglong who stands on the opposite side and helps the old man infinitely.

The old man himself said that when he stepped into the palace, he was in a daze.

Life and death are still unpredictable with the first foot, and the second foot stepped on the throne. This world is really so wonderful.

The old man who became the emperor saw that his father had completed the first step of a powerful empire. As a son, he was naturally unwilling to lag behind, and directly started the second step, calming down the north and recuperating.

It's a pity that the old man has been working hard for the first stage of the second step all his life, and finally died on the road to conquest.

But fortunately, it can be regarded as the completion of the first stage of the second step.

The next Zhu Pangpang and Zhu Zhanji, although their reign was short, they also completed the mission that the old man did not complete, and recuperated.

In this way, Daming's first two steps have been officially completed.

The next emperor, as long as he follows this rhythm, stabilizes the basic market, opens up the direction of the Western Regions, and opens the Silk Road, the tyrannical empire of Ming Dynasty will officially take shape.

But what makes people helpless is that Zhu Qizhen, a guy who can't even compare to a pig, lost the battle he could win with his eyes closed, directly ruining the hard work of several generations.

A change in the civil engineering castle, Da Ming, who was advancing bravely, was slapped back to the position that was still behind the starting point.

An army of 40 to [-] fought against tens of thousands of enemies, and there were countless famous officials and generals under him. Such a Tianhu was defeated at the beginning.

Zhu Zhangui scratched his head and couldn't figure it out. Why did he lose so badly when he could win a battle with a dog on the throne?

Nearly a hundred generals and ministers died in battle, hundreds of thousands of troops were all lost, and weapons and armor suddenly became the enemy's spoils of war.

The prodigal can be defeated to such an extent, Zhu Qizhen can really be called the number one person in ancient and modern times.

Fortunately, he came to Daming and wiped out all the chances of that God of War being born.

Although he has a son named Zhu Qizhen, this little boy is not like the God of War in history at all.

Although this little boy is only over one year old, he is very aggressive and ruthless. He often beats his older brothers and sisters until they cry.

For this reason, Yu Qingyao beat up the brat a lot.

But this stinky boy is also stubborn. When he was beaten, he cried a few times, and then he did what he should do, and continued to bully others when he should bully, making him a troublemaker.

In addition, this stinky boy is the third child, as long as his eldest son does not make a huge mistake, Zhu Zhangui will not have the idea of ​​changing heirs.

So this little devil who bullies others will at most be a little prince in this life.

Now Daming, under the guidance and planning of Zhu Zhangui, is advancing the second step and the third step at the same time.

The old man, who has always wanted to engage in the north, led his army to sneak in the north, chasing the northern prairie barbarians away.

His father, Zhu Pangpang, manages the internal affairs of the country, and with the help of blood transfusions from overseas colonies, the Ming Dynasty gradually strengthens, restores the power of the empire, and allows the people to recuperate.

Zhu Zhangui was in charge of dealing with the Western Regions, but instead of opening up the Silk Road, he brought the land of the Western Regions into the management of Ming Dynasty.In this way, he attacked the Timurid Empire in the West, and made preparations for his son and grandson to conquer the West.

In fact, Zhu Zhangui's inner thought is to take over the plateau by the way after solving the Western Regions.

In this way, the territory of Ming Dynasty will be completely connected, and the original rooster on the map will be transformed into a colorful phoenix.

It's a pity that the plateau is too difficult, and the Ming army has not adapted to the climate there, so it's hard to say how much combat power it can have.

So Zhu Zhangui planned, after solving the Western Regions, he will slowly train in the plateau area.

When troops that can adapt to the plateau environment are selected, they begin to march to the plateau, and it is precisely to bring them under control.

After these two hard bones are settled, Daming can officially rest and recuperate.

After waiting for more than ten years, the New Learning faction entered various departments, and the Daming Railway was also rolled out across the country, after stably controlling the entire empire.Zhu Zhangui will first tentatively launch an attack to the west to see if he can take part of it first, as the vanguard of Ming's future conquest of the world.

Conquering the world cannot be accomplished by one generation or two. Zhu Zhangui never thought that before his death, Daming would unify the entire world.Unless his supermarket can sell WWI, WWII or even more advanced weapons, based on the current speed of development alone, it is already a good result that Daming can enter the first generation of industrial revolution before he dies.

The reason why it was so difficult was not that Zhu Zhangui didn't know how to let his men imitate more advanced equipment, but that he couldn't imitate into a super empire.

If a country wants to rise, its own foundation is very necessary. Issues such as scientific and technological development of people's livelihood, agriculture and industry require countless experiments and improvements.

If everything is paved and the craftsmen under him develop the habit of asking whenever they encounter difficulties, then the country's future development hope will be completely cut off.

If science loses its desire for knowledge and only imitates blindly, then this country has no future to speak of.

Therefore, Zhu Zhangui often puts forward an idea, and asks his subordinates to study and explore by themselves, and will not instruct him personally unless it is absolutely necessary.

Zhu Zhangui's plan for the offensive route to the Western Regions this time is to follow the Hexi Corridor all the way west, and first hit the border of the Timurid Empire.

As for the area in the south, it is estimated that the north has been beaten, and those in the south will choose to surrender if they see that something is wrong.

Just as the first emperor of China said in the classics, all countries have shown their best ability to fight for the law.

Annex the weak ones first, and then defeat the strong ones. As for the neither strong nor weak ones, it is naturally under control.

As long as Zhu Zhangui leads the troops to defeat the main force in Yilibali, other small forces will naturally wait and see.

Yilibali is the Ming Dynasty's name for the Western Regions, and its real name should be the Eastern Chahatai Khanate.

Before Timur died, they were originally vassals of the Timur Empire. Later, after Timur died, the Timur Empire fell into chaos, and the Eastern Chahatai Khanate took the opportunity to separate and began to make friends with Ming Dynasty .

Before Paradise 15 years ago, both parties were very good friends.

Daming also sent envoys to the Western Regions many times to promote friendly cultural exchanges between the two sides.

But after 15 years in Yongle, I don’t know whether it was the ecstasy soup given to them by the Timur Empire, or the benefits given by Alutai, the guys in the Western Regions began to slowly distance themselves from Daming, especially the year before last. He sent troops to help Alutai, and wanted to wrestle with Daming.

It's a pity that the soldiers sent out were too stupid. They didn't even have a frontal battle, and they were attacked once or twice before they went straight to camp.

As a result, the East Chagatai Khanate, which had a small number of troops, was directly injured, and it would never recover without rest for more than ten years.

Later, in order to resolve the conflict between the two parties, the current Khan of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate lost his son Mahama, and wrote an apologetic and emotional confession.

When he saw this confession, the old man was almost moved to tears, and even told Zhu Zhangui on the spot, don't kill this old guy if he is caught, and ask him to apologize and admit his mistake in front of me in person.

Shi'er Mahama knew about the fact that the Ming army stationed troops in Hamiwei. He deeply understood that his act of sending troops to Alutai angered the old lion on the Daming dragon chair.

Feeling deceived, the old lion will definitely not let him go easily. This time he sent troops over, probably to teach himself a lesson.

Shi'er Mahama never thought that Daming would destroy him. After all, in his mind, the battle of Daming's destruction of the country used tens or even hundreds of thousands of troops. An army of [-] to [-] did not look like a big battle at all. .

So the old man thought, should he send an army to let the Ming army beat him up, and then raise the white flag to surrender on his own side.

In this way, the old lion on the Daming Dragon Chair has not only face, but also a face, and a step down.

In this way, everyone, hello, hello, everyone, can happily continue to do business, and continue to live a life of singing and dancing.

He thought so and did so.

So he sent an army of thousands of people to Turpan, and told the leading generals that it was enough to make a little effort, and he didn't need to really risk his life, so as not to hurt the Ming army, and the consequences would be unpredictable.

And tell the general that the fight is almost done, and he can raise the flag and surrender without too much psychological pressure.
