Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

Chapter 106 You need to consider gains and losses in war, but you don’t need to pick up money [Today 14]

For an empire, foreign negotiations... This is a problem that can never be avoided.

Especially like today's Daming, which has a vast territory and a large population.

A huge empire brings a long border, and foreign negotiations also determine the security of the border to a certain extent.

And the envoy of a country, no matter what kind of status or status the other party is in the country, once it represents a country's borders, it represents the dignity of the country.

But now, the envoys sent by Zhu Yuanzhang to a small country overseas were beheaded by others in a foreign country.
This incident was undoubtedly a slap in the face of Zhu Yuanzhang.

This incident itself was enough to make Zhu Yuanzhang furious.

But now, when he was annoyed, Chu Ze was still talking nonsense in front of him.
"We can tell you in advance that you'd better be busy."

During this period of time, Zhu Yuanzhang himself was quite angry, and he was busy with things all day long.

Although he tried to hand over all the power to Zhu Biao.

But there are some things that he should still be busy with.

It's just that the decision-making power is transferred to Zhu Biao as much as possible.

"Your Majesty, as you said just now, the Ming Dynasty sent envoys to the Wa Kingdom. It originally wanted to establish a friendly state between the two countries, but the other party didn't show face. They killed the envoys of the Ming Dynasty. This move is undoubtedly against Daming. provocative."

"This is a reason, and it's also a very good excuse. Provoking Tianwei is a crime that should be punished. We can take advantage of this opportunity and directly send troops to fight."

"We originally had a friendly purpose and wanted to promote friendly exchanges between the two countries, but the other party didn't talk about martial arts and beheaded our court envoys. We are both reasonable and reasonable. If we don't fight at this time, we will fight more. When are you waiting?"

"What? Do you really want to go to war?"

Zhu Yuanzhang originally thought that Chu Ze was going to say something profound, but after a long time, this guy analyzed this for him?

Could Zhu Yuanzhang not be clear about these things?
Indeed, the killing of envoys at this time is the best reason and opportunity for Daming to start a war with the opponent.

But don't forget, it's a naval battle.
Moreover, it is a small country separated by a sea in the middle.

Even if it is defeated, the price will not be easy for the Ming Dynasty, which is not good at naval warfare.

The point is, the place where the birds don't shit, it's hard to manage after it's knocked down.

If the two countries were land-connected countries, Zhu Yuanzhang would not even think about it, it would be the soldiers overwhelming the border.

When the two countries go to war, it is not two people fighting each other.

As the emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang was more concerned about gains and losses.

Every battle is fought against national strength!
So Zhu Yuanzhang, who was still angry at first, calmed down instantly after seeing Chu Ze who was eager to try.

This guy is usually a little out of tune.

But today, after mentioning the Wa country, he seemed extra excited.

Such an abnormal Chu Ze somehow made Zhu Yuanzhang feel that something was wrong.

"Haha. Your Majesty, look at what you said. How could I want to start a war? Didn't I think that the other party provoked first, and we have every reason not to."

"Anyway, neighbors on the border are just for fighting."

After realizing it, Chu Ze, who seemed to be acting too aggressively, rubbed the tip of his nose in embarrassment when facing Zhu Yuanzhang's staring gaze.

And Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Chu Ze, who was completely like a child's play, and let out a cold snort from his nasal cavity.

"You're talking lightly. Do you know how many soldiers will die on the battlefield together? Fighting... let's say, you can fight with a wave of your hand, but after you fight?"

"It's a small place like the Wa country, surrounded by the sea on all sides, and far away from Da Ming, and fighting across the sea, my navy division in Da Ming is very bad at this kind of warfare. If something happens, the ship capsizes in the gutter. How can Da Ming save face? "

"Now that the envoys are beheaded, it is mostly a shame, but at least the other party dare not act rashly. If the war fails at that time, the villain will definitely succeed, and the coastal areas may be more vulnerable to their intrusion in the future."

"After all, you are also a person from later generations, and you are so superficial in your view of war!"

Zhu Yuanzhang seemed somewhat disappointed with Chu Ze's performance this time.

Originally, he thought that Chu Ze, who came from later generations, should be very strong in the overall situation. After all, the other party came from later generations, and many things should have learned the lessons of history.

But what he didn't expect was that Chu Ze would be such a joke.

After being provoked for a while, I couldn't hold back and wanted to start a war.

This point, in Zhu Yuanzhang's view, is definitely a big taboo!
Militarism is by no means what a superior should have in mind, let alone a behavior that a strategist beside a superior should have.

"Your Majesty said that there will be basically no wars in future generations, and I don't know much about these things."

"What I mainly think about is that this opportunity is rare. We have a legitimate reason to go to war. This is not because there is a problem with the internal treasures. Recently, the prince has been busy with this matter, so I also thought about it. After that, dig out all the silver mines that are everywhere on their side, and fill up the treasury at that time, and this problem will basically be solved.”

"I didn't expect that I was superficial. It turns out that there are so many things to consider before going to war... I thought...

"Wait a minute, what did you just say?"

Originally, he wanted to take this opportunity to teach Chu Ze that the war between the two countries is not a joke, but after hearing Chu Ze's muttering.

He suddenly heard something extraordinary in his ears.

Silver mine?

Everywhere!

Some wondered if he had heard it wrong, so he hurriedly interrupted Chu Ze's words.

Then, he asked again in disbelief.

"Ah? I just said, it turns out that the war is still going on."

"Not this sentence, did you just say that there are silver mines everywhere in the country of Wa? Have you ever said this sentence?"

"Oh! This is what your Majesty said! I just said it. Silver is also an important mineral resource in later generations. In addition to silver, there are also gold, coal mines, and oil. The distribution of these important resources is also the same. One of the important things we have to learn."

"We don't want to hear what you say about knowledge now, we just want to know if what you just said is true? Are you sure about the fact that there is silver everywhere in the country of Wa?"

"Uh, of course I'm sure! I just heard you say that after Wa Kingdom beheaded the Ming envoy, didn't I just say it! The other party came to give us money. You shouldn't be angry, Your Majesty."

"But didn't your majesty say that you don't want to go to war?"

"Fart! Did we say we don't want to go to war? What we said is to be cautious. Come on! Go and call us the crown prince, and call us Xu Da and Lan Yu immediately. There is something important to talk about!"

Within a country, there are silver mines everywhere!

If this incident is true, then the country of Wa is not a small place where the birds don't shit in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes.

That is a golden mountain, an inexhaustible golden mountain!
When the two countries go to war, it is indeed necessary to consider the gains and losses.

But if there is a golden mountain on the opposite side, what else is there to consider?
When Zhu Yuanzhang gave an order, the palace guards and eunuchs became lively.

Zhu Biao, who lives in the East Palace, heard the news immediately.

After learning that Chu Ze had gone to see his father, not long after, the entire palace erupted.

He didn't care about dealing with government affairs anymore.

Immediately got up and rushed towards the imperial study.

Although he didn't know what happened, but as soon as he heard about Chu Ze, Zhu Biao would know... probably nothing good happened.

Even on the way to the imperial study, Zhu Biao had already figured out how to intercede for Chu Ze.

However, when he really trotted all the way to the imperial study room, as soon as he entered the door, he saw a scene that surprised Zhu Biao.

The scene he imagined that his father had a dark face and Chu Ze was beaten and bruised all over his body did not appear.

At this time, Chu Ze actually stood directly in front of his father's imperial study case.

What he held in his hand was the imperial pen used by his father.

The two tigers on the side rubbed ink for Chu Ze himself.

Chu Ze was writing and drawing while explaining.

And his father, at this time, is actually like a student, nodding his head from time to time, then frowning or something.

"Fourth, what's going on?"

Seeing this scene in front of him, Zhu Biao went numb immediately.

Isn't the relationship between Chu Ze and his father not good even if it comes soon?

Why do you see the two of them getting along so well today?

At this time, Zhu Biao also noticed Zhu Di standing in the imperial study with a depressed expression on his face.

Then I hurriedly asked Zhu Di.

"Brother... You came just in time. This, this situation is quite complicated, you should go and see for yourself."

After Zhu Di saw Zhu Biao coming, although he really wanted to say hello with a smile.

But at this moment, he really couldn't laugh anymore.

A good place full of silver! It would be great if this was your own fief!
He is actually quite interested in naval battles, so he can definitely learn from them now.
"you.."

Looking at Zhu Di with a bitter face, Zhu Biao frowned slightly.

Just don't ask him.

He stepped forward quickly and saluted Zhu Yuanzhang above him.

"My son, see you."

"Biao'er, you came at the right time! Stop participating and come up to show us. How can this silver mine be properly mined!"

After hearing Zhu Biao's voice, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't wait to interrupt Zhu Biao's greeting.

When is this all?

Also see a ghost!

Put the money in your pocket first.

"Silver mine? What silver mine?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's words made Zhu Biao, who was halfway through the salute, froze in place.

But then he reacted quickly.

After hesitating for a while, he quickly walked to Chu Ze's side.

After looking down at what Chu Ze drew, Zhu Biao, who was already confused, twitched slightly at the corners of his mouth.

"Chu Ze... why are you drawing a worm on paper?"

"Uh prince, can't you see that this is a simple topographic map?"
