First Minister of Ming Dynasty

Guo Tianxu and Zhang Tianyou!

That's right, they are Guo Zixing's precious son and brother-in-law.

After Guo Zixing's death at that time, Liu Futong once wanted to use the two of them to disgust Lao Zhu, but Zhang Ximeng directly sent the two of them to the prisoner-of-war camp for reformation, without even causing a splash.

Logically speaking, so many people have realized the Tao in the prisoner-of-war camp, but the two of them have been in the prisoner-of-war camp for so many years.

I can't study, and I don't even want to act on stage.

Based on this performance, it is estimated that if he stays in the prisoner-of-war camp until he dies, he will not be enlightened.

But out of caring for the old people in the past, Zhang Ximeng actually sent invitations to the two of them, asking them to come and watch the ceremony. .

When these two guys saw the crowd, their momentum was like a rainbow, and they were half-hearted at first.

When Zhu Yuanzhang was surrounded by soldiers and dressed in military uniform, he climbed onto the Fengtian Gate and looked down, the two of them felt sore all over and almost fell to their knees.

They didn't hear what Zhu Yuanzhang said.

There is only one thought left... the true emperor!

This Zhu Chongba...is Zhu Yuanzhang...is the Holy One!

It is truly worthy of being a sage and heroic lord, truly majestic and peerless, on the day of the bright moon, what did they think at the beginning?If you insist on making trouble with the real man, you are simply asking for your own destruction, looking for your own death.

The two were full of fear and trembling. When they found that everyone else was kneeling and shouting "Long live", the two fell to their knees in a hurry, shouting louder than anyone else, with their buttocks raised high, their faces full of fear and flattery .

I was afraid that Lao Zhu would settle accounts with them, but he also vaguely hoped that it would be great if Lao Zhu could reward them with official positions for the sake of his past affection.

In the final analysis, not everyone understands the truth, there are always some people, you can’t explain the truth, they only fear the strong, as long as you are strong enough, they will eagerly kneel down, do everything they can to please, and look forward to being able to After receiving a cup of leftovers, he was overjoyed, relied on his power, and turned to bully others.

For such two people with a moral vacuum, if there is no accident, they should not even think about getting out of the prisoner-of-war camp, and continue to reform.

Compared with these two guys, Yexian, Xuexue, Biebuhua, and Nahachu, these people talked and laughed.

"I dare say that this must be Zhang Xiang's handwriting. Throughout the ages, the emperor ascended the throne, or offered sacrifices to the heaven and the earth, or honored the edict...Only I am the Son of Heaven, proclaiming to all people, gathering the hearts of the people in the world, and ascending to the throne. Pass my emperor!"

Hearing Yexian's words, Liu Jizu who was not far away sighed, "Sure enough, we are all citizens of Ming Dynasty. Thinking about the past, it is really like a dream...I can tell you that His Majesty has been courageous, intelligent and filial since he was a child. Not ordinary people!"

The big guys talked and laughed happily. There is no distinction between Han people, Mongols, and Miao people here, and there are only Ming people.It is worth mentioning that there are a considerable number of women on the viewing platform, accounting for more than [-]% of the total number.

That's right, the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang left the opportunity to women, and treated his subjects equally.And in his enthronement ceremony, women were also among them, and they accounted for a considerable proportion.

There are female workers, students, and officials here...they are gorgeously dressed and elegant, standing on the viewing platform without any stage fright, nor pretending to be obsequious, neither humble nor overbearing, they are indeed Daming's women's roses!

No matter men or women, their faces are full of joy and vitality, and everyone can clearly feel it.This is not the kind of dynasty established by usurping the throne and seizing power by bullying widowed mothers.

Nor is it a country established by force, trampled by iron hoofs, and mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

This is a brand new dynasty, with powerful military power, but it did not even kill the high-ranking officials and generals of the enemy; this is a dynasty that opposes aristocratic families and denies Confucianism, but the most ordinary soldiers and common people, even women, have the opportunity to study.The barbarians were civilized here.

Although the emperor ranks ninety-five, he can be called the only person in the world and is supreme.

But this emperor still has to fear the hearts of the people and fulfill his promises to the people.

All in all, this is a country with many strange things, which is different from the previous dynasties.However, these strange things can coexist harmoniously and blend together without any awkwardness, as if everything is so logical.

Doing the right thing may not necessarily win the support of everyone.

Too many reformers have made themselves lonely as they go along.

Are these people wrong?

It seems hard to say.

However, death is a very common thing.

Zhang Ximeng was luckier than those people because he not only met Zhu Yuanzhang, but also caught up with a good time to formulate rules, a blank sheet of paper, and start from scratch.

Starting from the most fundamental concept, various policies are derived.

Then we went back to the history, elucidated the past, and looked forward to the future... From an unprecedented height, we completed the construction of the country.

This is not to say that without these things, the founding of the nation cannot be successful.

It's just that without these things as lubricants, the country will inevitably bump into bumps and disadvantages.It's like a car that has lost its lubricating oil. After rattling, how long it can run depends on God's will.

The Yuan Dynasty is a typical example. The Hulu have no national fortune for a hundred years, and their days are numbered.

Relying on the armed landlords of Chahan Timur and others, they were still able to stop the Northern Expedition of Han and Song, and the two sides fought back and forth.But facing the soldiers and horses of the Ming Dynasty, how long can the Yuan Dynasty last?

Or how about Daming's family background?

Zhu Yuanzhang took a short breath when he came down from Fengtian Gate.Then he said to Zhang Ximeng and Li Shanchang, "We didn't make any mistakes today, did we?"

Everyone shook their heads quickly, Li Shanchang said: "The superior is generous and impassioned, the appearance of the sun, the posture of a dragon and a phoenix, he is really a person from ancient to modern times,

Incomparable! "

Lao Li's flattery is as if he doesn't want money.

Zhang Ximeng closed his eyes slightly, and he replayed the scene of Lao Zhu reading the imperial edict again... On the Fengtian Gate, Zhu Yuanzhang announced that the people in the city look up to the emperor and are full of hope.

With the attention of all the people, Jiangshan Sheji, holding it in the palm, is indeed awe-inspiring!

"My lord, I think that not only is there no mistake, but also the momentum is like a rainbow, and all the people will return to their hearts. This enthronement ceremony can be regarded as able to stand the test of the people of the world."

At this time, Song Lian suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I asked Honglu Temple to select a few master painters. It is necessary to draw today's scene and pass it on to future generations."

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up, and he immediately smiled and said: "Okay, I must tell them that the painting must be vivid and lifelike. We have to see it ourselves."

After Zhu Yuanzhang finished his explanation, he chatted a few more words casually. The monarch and his ministers had almost rested, and then they had to go back to Fengtianmen.

Zhu Yuanzhang replaced the bright yellow cloak with a crimson war robe wrapped in black satin.

The entire Ming Dynasty really liked red too much.

When it comes to the color used by the royal family, yellow is really not the most respected color. The so-called heaven and earth black and black clothes are still higher than yellow.

Daqin is dominated by black.

Zhu Yuanzhang's clothes are not lacking in black, such as a set of clothes designed by the Ministry of Rites, which is black for the outside and yellow for the inside.Zhu Yuanzhang also liked it very much.

But the Ming Dynasty started from the south, conquered the north from the south, and occupied a fire virtue.

Even Liu Futong and others know that the name is the Red Scarf Army, and there is no reason for Zhu Jiajun to be unclear.

Therefore, civil and military courtiers mainly use crimson red.

Except for the bright yellow clothes, Zhu Yuanzhang usually wears red for the outside and black for the inside... Wearing this battle robe looks like a ball of flames, shining brightly.

Really majestic!

Civil and military officials, surrounded by Zhu Yuanzhang, boarded the Fengtian Gate.

But this time the leader of the military parade was Xu Da.

From the battle of Xuexue, to the capture of Jinling, to the battle of Hangzhou, the great victory in Hukou... The peasant boy from this village,

After being tempered, it is already like an invincible epee.

In terms of bravery, Xu Da may not be the strongest, but the epee has no front. Looking at the world, the handsome talent who can compete with Xu Da,

Very few.

"I pay homage to Your Majesty... The soldiers of the three armies are waiting for His Majesty's review!"

Zhu Yuanzhang took the lead and said loudly: "Preach the decree, and the review begins!"

"According to the order!"

Xu Da got up, jumped on his horse, and galloped towards the parade.

As the representative of the Son of Heaven, Xu Da first reviewed the troops and passed in front of each team. Wherever he went, the sound of Long Live was earth-shattering.

But Xu Da passed in front of the last team, turned his horse's head, and returned.

Columnar starts.

The team that appeared first was not led by any famous general. On the contrary, these people seemed to be a bit vicissitudes... But a mottled flag showed the identity of this army.

They are the Haozhou Red Scarves, the group of people who once fought bloody battles with Zhu Yuanzhang and guarded Haozhou together.

In fact, according to reason, Tang He should be the commander-in-chief of this army, but he is currently in the Miao Department and cannot come here.

So we can only regret the missed opportunity.

But even so, these red-scarf old men were filled with tears and were extremely excited.

Mr. Zhu still remembers the big guy, Mr. Zhu has become the emperor!

"Long live! Long live!"

They passed by Fengtianmen, making deafening roars. Zhu Yuanzhang waved his arms high and greeted the big guys, but his eyes were moist. When he fought side by side with them, he was just a mere nine husbands!

And after these people, Fei Ju led a group of soldiers and horses to appear, and they were all the people who were adapted in Linhuai...

It turned out that this military parade was used to reproduce the struggle of the past. It was really well-intentioned!

Chapter 4 and Six

Linhuai Town, the starting point of Zhu Yuanzhang.

There, Lao Zhu had the first army of his own.

Moreover, on the way to Linhuai, the discussion with Zhang Ximeng gave Lao Zhu a vague consciousness that he wanted to compete for the world and establish his own hegemony.

In the blink of an eye, eight years have passed, and he has indeed achieved something.But there are not many veterans who can accompany him to this day.

Some of them died in battle, some had to leave the army early because of injuries, and of course, some violated military regulations and were beheaded by Lao Zhu as a warning to others.

Of the original 3000 or [-] people, there are still [-] left.

Zhu Yuanzhang watched these old friends pass by, and he hoped that these people would accompany him to go on, the Northern Expedition to Dadu, clean up the mountains and rivers, the land of Kyushu, and return to unity. At that time, in front of this Fengtian Gate, continue to review the three armies!

Immediately after the old Linhuai troops left, they were Huaixi soldiers led by Wu Zhen... These people were recruited and trained by Zhu Yuanzhang himself.

They are the core of the Zhu family's army, they are the shining generals, they will lay down the current foundation, and they will also open up the future world, unstoppable, unrivaled, a large gathering of ruthless people of this era!Invincible boy group!

These people give Zhu Yuanzhang more peace of mind, rest assured, with them, he will be invincible and invincible!

After the Huaixi formation, it was the Chuzhou soldiers led by Feng Guoyong.

This all-rounder in civil and military affairs who suggested to Lao Zhu to cross the river and take Yingtian directly, once died young in history, and died violently in the army that attacked Shaoxing.Zhu Yuanzhang was heartbroken, and in terms of merit ranking, Feng Guoyong ranked eighth among many heroes, second only to the founding sixth Duke and Hu Dahai, which shows his high status. .

But in this time and space, Feng Guoyong was arranged in Yangzhou, avoided danger, was still alive and kicking, and was in excellent health.

There are too many famous generals who died in a daze just because they were not acclimatized to the environment, or because of unknown reasons.Zhang Ximeng couldn't turn himself into a genius doctor and pull a person back from the gate of hell.

However, Zhang Ximeng implemented health regulations in the army early on, formulated catering standards, conducted reasonable training, and encouraged a healthy lifestyle... Under Zhang Ximeng's advocacy, the Zhu family's army rarely suffered acclimatization, and there were no large-scale plagues.

Non-combat attrition is minimal.

Therefore, there are many famous generals who are safe and sound. It is no exaggeration to say that the Zhu family's army today is more ferocious than in history!

After Feng Guoyong, a dark burly man, leading Hezhou soldiers and horses, appeared in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.

Hu Dahai!

This brave and upright man was also not plotted against by Xiao Xiao, and he was still in good health.Hu Dahai's bravery is no less than Chang Yuchun's, and his most valuable thing is to understand the truth and lead by example. His son Hu Sanshe broke the law and was resolutely executed by Lao Zhu. Hu Dahai did not resent Zhu Yuanzhang, on the contrary, he was more loyal.

Only then did Zhu Yuanzhang hope to keep Hu Guan, Hu Dahai's second son, by his side.

However, Hu Dahai felt that in order for the soldiers to go forward bravely, the general must set an example. How could he let his son hide behind?

Hu Dahai couldn't resist, Zhu Yuanzhang could only agree.

All in all, this is a loyal and reliable warrior.

After Hu Dahai, it was Chang Yuchun's cross-river phalanx.

These soldiers all participated in the battle of Duanjiang River, and made great military exploits when they captured Yingtian.

Seeing teams of elite soldiers and generals passing by, cheers thundered on the viewing platform, and people stared round their eyes.

The slap was red, very exciting.

Do you see, these are the soldiers of Daming, our soldiers!

Just after Chang Yuchun, a group of soldiers and horses appeared, commanded by Zhu Wenzheng. They passed in front of the crowd with neat steps. After a short silence, Yexian Timur stood up, tears uncontrollable poured out.

He recognized it!

This is the prisoner-of-war camp in Tongling!

First, Timur and the others led these soldiers to fight Ni Wenjun in a bloody battle to protect Tongling.
