Start by saving Empress Ma, Zhu Yuanzhang honors me as the Emperor of Ming Dynasty

The cannons of the Shenji Camp!

It’s that kind of red cannon!

Speaking of which, this kind of cannon, which seems a bit backward in later generations, was a heavyweight war weapon even during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. This is enough to show that from the establishment of the Ming Dynasty to its demise, and then to the Qing Dynasty's rule over the Central Plains, there was not much progress in the development of its weapons!

It's really unbelievable.

Of course, this is related to the actions of the Qing Dynasty. Even if there were foreign invasions in later generations, the Qing Dynasty would first suppress the locals!

Lu Feng thought for a moment and said to Zhu Biao:

"This anti-aircraft gun is not only much more powerful than the Red Cannon, but also has a much faster rate of fire! Our preliminary estimate shows that the anti-aircraft gun can fire 1 rounds every second. However, the Red Cannon, due to its backward technology, may take two or three seconds to load a round, and another two or three seconds to fire it. All in all, the time it takes to fire a round is as long as five or six seconds."

Hearing this, Zhu Biao was a little surprised. He really didn't expect that the gap between the red cannon and the anti-aircraft gun was so obvious. It would not be an exaggeration to call it a gap like a chasm.

In this case, using this level of anti-aircraft guns to deal with the Japanese pirates at sea would be a groundbreaking blow!

Zhu Biao couldn't help laughing out loud!

Because he knew that from now on, the Japanese pirates would no longer pose any threat to the Ming Dynasty.

The threat of Japanese pirates has begun to spread to the inland areas, and some people along the coast have also mixed into the ranks of the Japanese pirates.

Some simply used the name of Japanese pirates to wreak havoc in coastal areas, burning, killing, and looting, committing countless crimes.

This also creates a huge hidden danger to the public security management in coastal areas.

Once those people started committing crimes in the name of Japanese pirates, it was easy to confuse the government and make them mistakenly believe that these were real crimes committed by Japanese pirates.

As a result, the initial investigation went off track, allowing the real culprit to go unpunished. However, there was nothing that could be done about it, because for every ten crimes committed by Japanese pirates, only one was committed by Ming Dynasty citizens pretending to be Japanese pirates, which was a very small proportion.

If you want to completely solve this problem, there is only one way, and that is to completely destroy the Japanese pirates!

At first, this was indeed a pipe dream, but with the emergence of the Ming Dynasty ship and this kind of anti-aircraft gun, it is no longer a castle in the air.

Zhu Di knew what his good brother was thinking and couldn't help but smile along.

The threat of Japanese pirates was not only a major concern for the coastal areas, but also a heavy mountain weighing on his elder brother Zhu Biao, his father Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang and himself. Now that this mountain has been removed, it is impossible for him to be unhappy.

However, when he looked at Lin An, he saw that he was quite calm and not at all surprised by this novelty. He immediately asked curiously, "King Wei, do you have anything to say?"

Lin An shook his head!

Zhu Di was not a fool. He naturally saw that Lin An had a lot of things in his heart that he hadn't said.

Indeed, Lin An was a little worried at this time because he thought of the changes caused by the butterfly effect before.

The emergence of land warfare artifacts has brought about fundamental changes in the ecology of the entire Ming Dynasty.

Now with the advent of the Ming Dynasty ship, the situation will be fundamentally shaken and changed.

He roughly estimated the time. At this moment, there were still several decades before Zheng He's first voyage to the West. The ships Zheng He used for his voyages to the West were the most advanced, developed, majestic and spectacular!

However, all this was broken by this warship today!

At this moment, Lin An was really confused. He didn't know whether the over-development of technology was a good thing or a bad thing!

Of course, Zhu Di didn't know that Lin An was thinking so far ahead. He just felt that Lin An's behavior was a little different from ordinary people. However, seeing that the other party didn't want to say more, he didn't pursue it too much!

Soon, it was dark and Lin An returned to the Duke of Wei's Mansion. When he was planning to rest, a servant suddenly knocked on his door and said that someone was outside asking to see him. He was speechless for a moment. It was so late and he had taken off his clothes. It was just right that someone would come to see him!

He was originally planning to refuse, but suddenly heard the servant say that a man named Su An came to see him.

Lin An couldn't help but be stunned. What was Su An looking for him for at this time? Could it be that he had encountered some problems and planned to talk to him all night long?

Thinking of this, he said to Xu Miaojin beside him: "Wife, wait for me for a quarter of an hour. I'll go see if there's anything wrong. If there's nothing wrong, we'll continue."

Xu Miaojin gathered the quilt and said shyly, "Then go quickly!"

Seeing her shy little face that seemed to want to speak but couldn't, and the exposed shoulders that still had the marks he had just left, Lin An was reluctant to leave the warm bed, nor was he willing to leave this pretty lady. However, thinking of Su An's identity, they were both time travelers after all, so he could only suppress the desire in his heart, put on his clothes and walked out quickly.

Soon, in the conference room, Lin An met Su An!

Su An's face was full of shock at this moment. Even after so long, he still maintained that expression!

Lin An came hurriedly. Seeing this, he was a little surprised and asked, "What's wrong? You came to see me in the middle of the night. Is the sky falling? Or did you go to the music studio for a trial and didn't pay, so you came to me for help?"

When Su An heard this, he said helplessly: "I say, my good brother, am I such a dirty person in your eyes? Can't I come to you for business? Besides, even if I am really detained, it is your face that is slapped. Brother, I went in with your warrant. If they dare to stop me, it means they are not giving you face. Then what's the point of you being the King of Wei!"

Hearing this, Lin An's face suddenly turned dark.

One thing that has to be admitted is that this guy's ability to change the subject is really strong. Without noticing, he shifted the focus of the discussion from that guy himself to him, and also changed from questioning at the beginning to answering. This whole process was so smooth that one could not detect any trace of performance.

"Then tell me, what do you want from me?"

Su An glanced at Lin An, his expression changing from playful to serious. He took a deep breath, straightened his attitude, and asked very seriously: "Did you have someone build that warship? Have you considered the consequences of doing so?"

Seeing Su An's expression, Lin An was a little puzzled at first. When the guy's tone gradually turned into questioning, he also began to become curious and said with a frown:

"What do you mean? What are the consequences of doing this? Just explain yourself clearly and don't ask me in such a confusing way. If I knew, I wouldn't do this."

Su An said: "Doesn't he think that you are forcing things to happen? Every era has its own mission. What year is it now? It's the 30th year of Hongwu. What should they be doing at this time? We should still be in an agricultural society. What have you done? Not only did you invent a land warfare artifact, you also produced this highly modern steel warship. Do you know what this means? This is no longer just a castle in the air."

"The emergence of warships was at least six or seven hundred years away. You've suddenly given the Ming Dynasty a seven-century lead in science and technology. Have you considered the consequences? If an ambitious emperor emerged in the Ming Dynasty, it would be a catastrophic disaster for the other tribes and forces in the world."

After hearing this, Lin An finally understood. It turned out that this guy was afraid that the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty would one day become that unspeakable existence.

If the world is unified, the war it sets off will spread across the globe. By then, it will no longer be just a local war.

It will directly affect the people's livelihood and well-being around the world. At this time, the scientific and technological civilization of the Ming Dynasty was already in an absolute leading position. Now, with the support of land warfare artifacts and Ming Dynasty ships, there is no need to worry about logistics. Those high-yield rice and wheat seeds have already made the people of the Ming Dynasty worry-free about food and clothing.

Without the limitations and constraints of logistics, it would be a very terrifying thing!

So, Lin An said, "In fact, in a simple word, don't you want the Ming Dynasty to be the only protagonist in this world?"

Su An nodded and said bluntly: "I understand now. What you want to do is the same as what Qin Shi Huang wanted to do. It's just that he wanted to unify the Central Plains, and you want to unify the whole world."

"Have you ever thought about the serious consequences this would have on the world? Do you want war to break out all over the world because of this idea? Think about the homeless children and the people who are being persecuted."

"Don't start a war. This world is already in tatters, don't make it worse. Peace is truly precious. If you had lived through my time, you wouldn't have this idea."

Initially, Lin An had no patience to listen any further, but after keenly spotting the logical flaw, he asked, "What do you mean by not having experienced your era? Was everything you told me before a lie? The Central Plains didn't dominate or replace the overlord..."

Su An also knew that he had let the cat out of the bag, so he immediately covered his mouth and stopped talking!

However, Lin An did not intend to let Su An go. He walked up to Su An, looked into his eyes and said, "Tell me the truth, what exactly happened in the future? And why did you lie to me? What will the future world be like? Has the old man's ideal been realized? Have the people of Daming lived a better life because of it?"

Su An fell silent, falling into complete silence!

"Are you sure you don't want to tell me?" Lin An took another step forward, full of intimidation!

"Don't push me!" Su An was like a silent lion. When he was forced into a corner, he was forced to roar!

"Alright! Then go away, and don't ever come back. Once you leave this door, our relationship as brothers will end. You're no longer my second brother, and I'm no longer your eldest brother. From now on, I'll pretend I've never met you. Don't worry, I won't reveal your identity as a time traveler to the outside world."

At this moment, Lin An said resolutely!

Maybe Su An thought he was joking, but he knew that he was serious.

He was so timid and coy, trying to hide everything. He was unwilling to tell him the truth and open up to him. There was no point in making friends with such a brother. He might stab him in the back at any time. He didn't dare to take the risk!

After a moment of silence, Su An said, "I didn't lie to you! It's just that I don't know how to describe it. Um... the life you dreamed of didn't come true. Instead, it was replaced by a kind of... um... that is different from what you imagined. I can't go into details, because once I do, the problems I encounter are not what you and I want to see!"

"I wonder if you've ever seen a cartoon called Little Carp at the beginning?"

Lin An nodded.

In fact, after hearing this, he already knew what Su An meant, but he still listened very patiently.

Su An said: "After the Golden Dragon died, the Snake wanted to occupy the world created by the Golden Dragon. Of course, he succeeded in the end. So, those who followed the Golden Dragon were petrified by the Snake one by one and became permanent sculptures. It just makes people miss the people when they see them!"

"That world is gone!"

"Well... I think I understand what you mean! So, you mean, the golden dragon is gone, but its power still shines on the earth, right?" Lin An suddenly looked at Su An with hope on his face. He was a little scared, afraid of hearing the answer from Su An that he didn't want to hear!

In the end, he was disappointed!

Su An shook his head and said, "No more, all gone!"

"Anyway, I can't go into detail about anything else. When you're supposed to understand, you'll understand. If you don't, it means the time isn't right yet. Be patient and wait. It's like reading an article. When you're new to it, you won't feel anything. But after you've experienced more, you'll realize how much wisdom it contains!"

The lecturing began again!

Lin An was also speechless at this moment.

A good chat turned into a know-it-all!

"Okay! Then we'll talk about it when you have time! Then you can go back first. As for the matter of the Ming ship, I will find a good time to explain it to you. Is that okay?"

Lin An said tit for tat!

Su An nodded a little guiltily and said, "No problem, of course no problem, whatever big brother says is fine!"

At this moment, a flattering smile appeared on his face. It was obvious that he was now alone and weak, and was really afraid that Lin An would abandon him. If that happened, it would be a huge torture for him who had finally enjoyed the happiness of the Jiaofangsi!
