People in Hongwu, from heavenly master to emperor master

Chapter 498 The place Genghis Khan never reached
VIP?

Zhu Di didn't understand what Zhang Yi was talking about for a moment?
Zhang Yi said helplessly:
"Your Highness, it's time for my brothers and sisters to be released, right?"

Only then did Zhu Di understand what Zhang Yi meant. When he was making the gun, Zhang Yi brought a bunch of brothers to the tiger's den in order to use the machine tool.

In addition to teaching students, these people are also responsible for operating and making machine tools.

Today's Tiger Cave can be regarded as the largest arsenal of the Ming Dynasty. Especially after mastering simple machine tools, the Ming Dynasty's firearms have exploded into huge production capacity.

This kind of production capacity is not only reflected in the muskets, but most importantly in the production of Xuanwu cannons.

A qualified gun bore was the original intention behind the invention of the machine tool.

After the output is increased and the yield rate of Xuanwu cannon is increased!
Ming Dynasty's plan to attack Japan has entered the preparation stage in full swing.

In the construction process of Tiger Cave, the Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain headed by Wu Baohe played a crucial role.

When Zhu Di heard that Zhang Yi came to ask for someone, he felt heartbroken.

After he briefly took over Jinyiwei, he took the initiative to come to Tiger Cave to study firearms.

Wu Bao and these people have long become his right-hand men.

"Brother Zhang, can we discuss it..."

Zhu Di knew that Zhang Yi had the emperor's will, so he had to give him face.

However, can't we discuss the matter of asking for someone?
Seeing Zhu Di's shameless appearance, Zhang Yi couldn't help but laugh:
"Your Highness, if my guess is correct, there should be quite a few descendants of those guilty ministers who can take charge of their own affairs!

Why does Your Highness bother to keep my senior brothers and the others? "

Zhu Di wanted to cheat, but Zhang Yi didn't tolerate him.

"Besides, Pindao, under His Majesty's orders, is studying things of the future!

Talents are hard to come by these days, so it would be a pity for Senior Brother Wu and the others to stay here and do some repetitive work..."

"But, please leave some for me..."

Zhu Di still wanted to fight for it, Zhang Yi smiled:

"Then the poor Taoist will take away some people by name, and the others will leave after a while, is that possible?"

The steps were left for Zhu Di, and Zhu Di naturally had no reason not to agree. Then Zhang Yi took out a list of names from his sleeves, and he secretly said that he had been fooled.

It seemed that Zhang Yi had long expected that he would not be willing to let them go, and had already prepared a list.

Zhu Di reluctantly took over the list and asked people to call people.

Not long after, everyone on Zhang Yi's list arrived.

"Junior Brother Zhang!"

Wu Baohe and others were excited when they saw Zhang Yi.

They were in a tiger's den, almost like a prison, and had no knowledge of the outside world.

Zhang Yi walked over with a smile and bowed:

"Thank you for your hard work, senior brothers! I wonder how you are lately?"

"Good, good, good!

In addition to teaching students and guiding them in their work, our life is good!
There is food, drink, and good treatment..."

Wu Baohe felt a little excited when he talked about life here.

What people desire most is recognition.

Even Taoist priests are the same.

There is nothing more comforting than recognition from the court.

Wu Baohe and others looked at Zhang Yi with grateful eyes.

Most of them will most likely remain Taoist priests throughout their lives.

Even if the teacher is from a famous family, being able to go to a Taoist temple to lead a Taoist temple is already considered a great thing!

And being reused by the imperial court is also a rare opportunity for them.

In Tiger's Nest, His Royal Highness King Yan always gets along with them, and their relationship is extremely harmonious.

Zhang Yi listened to their chatter and thought that if he stayed for a while, they would all be bribed by Zhu Di.

"Pindao asked you to come here to take you out!"

Zhang Yi directly stated his intention, and the Taoist priests in front of him had different expressions.

There is joy, but also reluctance.

Zhang Yi didn't say anything more and let them choose.

After a while, Wu Baohe said first:

"Okay, I'll go pack my things..."

Eighty-nine percent of them followed Wu Baohe, and some were reluctant to leave. Zhang Yi did not try to persuade them to stay, but gave Zhu Di a look.

This guy was laughing, but the two of them didn't say anything.

Zhu Di successfully left some people behind, and Zhang Yi took the remaining people and left the tiger's den.

When they left, they were accompanied by soldiers and horses.

Zhang Yi took them back to Qingxin Temple and told Wu Bao and them about his and the emperor's decision.

These senior brothers from Longhu Mountain were overjoyed when they heard this. This was the best arrangement for them.

These people were selected by Zhang Yi themselves, and they were able to follow Zhang Yi on Longhu Mountain. Most of them were otakus who preferred technology.

The emperor gave them funding and then built a university for research?
What kind of fairy day is this?
Wu Baohe and others were very fortunate that they did not reject Zhang Yi because of the conditions in the tiger's lair.

"Junior Brother Zhang, we are willing to follow Junior Brother..."

"There's another thing. Give me some advice. The emperor now wants me to lead the world's religions..."

Zhang Yi told Wu Baohe another thing, and everyone was shocked.

He is in charge of the world's religious affairs. Doesn't that mean that Master is also led by Junior Brother Zhang?

"It's not what you think. It's impossible for the emperor to give me this kind of authority. I guess the most the emperor can give me is the power to formulate policies...

But my senior brother also knows that I can’t handle specific matters. I hope someone can help me when the time comes..."

Wu Baohe was very excited when he heard this.

Deng Zhongxiu became the abbot of Chaotian Palace, and their brothers and sisters were envious of him.

Although Song Zongzhen went to a remote place, his junior brother said that he would definitely have a good future in the future.

And is it my turn to have this opportunity?
"Junior brother, don't worry, Pindao will definitely handle this matter!"

After Zhang Yi was relieved, he asked Wu Baohe to communicate with officials from the Ministry of Industry to see how to build the remaining parts of the Spring and Autumn Temple.

Lao Zhu understands him!

The construction of this Spring and Autumn Temple is very suitable for the people living in Zhengyi.

In short, it is because all Taoists of Zhengdao are likely to marry, have children, and live together.

So the place where he, the host, lives is somewhat isolated from other places!

The place where the school is located is in another adjacent place.

It doesn't matter whether it's a university or a research institute where Zhang Yi will research high-end technology in the future!

Because Lao Zhu reminded Zhang Yi that he was going to change the original design of the Ministry of Industry and build the building directly with concrete!
Although the imperial court has mastered the formula of cement, who can really use cement better than the Taoist priests from Longhu Mountain?

After arranging this matter, Zhang Yicai went to Wang Baobao.

However, he didn't see anyone. Zhang Yi, who was rejected, went to chat with Guanyin Nu.

Although Guanyin Nu also wanted to lose face with Zhang Yi, whoever Zhang Yi was could welcome him, and the two gradually chatted away.

The laughter between him and Guanyin Nu made Wang Baobao anxious.This guy was afraid that Guanyin Nu would be deceived by Zhang Yi, so he took the initiative to come out.

Zhang Yizheng talked with Guanyin Nu about running a school, and he did not hide anything about these things.

Guanyin Nu didn't understand why Zhang Yi wanted to teach something useless.

In this era, probably only the Xu family girl can resonate with Zhang Yi in this regard.

However, she was still a little envious when she heard that Zhang Yi would recruit female students.

Wang Baobao remained silent and only listened to Zhang Yi talking about the changes in Shuntian Mansion. He scoffed at it at first, thinking that Zhu Yuanzhang was just messing around.

But as Zhang Yi's chat with Guanyin Nu deepened, he fell into deep thought again.

As the nominal prime minister and king of Qi in the Northern Yuan Dynasty, although he mainly made achievements in the military field, Wang Baobao had his own problems.

He had never thought about how he would transform the corrupt Dayuan if Beiyuan took control of the Central Plains and became prime minister.

But the more he listened to Zhang Yi's words, the more Wang Baobao felt that Zhu Yuanzhang was bold in governing.

The emperor of the Zhu family, no matter what, he can be regarded as a hero.

"The emperor guards the gate of the country...

Putting yourself on the front line is a fool's errand...

Attacking Japan is extremely ridiculous. What Genghis Khan didn't accomplish back then, how could the emperor of Ming Dynasty accomplish it? "

Wang Baobao finally couldn't bear Zhang Yi's bragging to the emperor, but he opened his mouth to refute Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi chuckled, he was afraid that Wang Baobao wouldn't take the bait.

Lao Zhu asked him to recruit Wang Baobao to surrender, but he didn't want to kneel down and lick him. This job of recruiting Wang Baobao to surrender was actually not easy to do.

Zhang Yi didn't think he had the ability to convince a prejudiced adult.

And he didn't want to convince anyone, he just wanted to test whether the person behind him was still heartbroken.

As long as he still has ambition, he cannot be willing to stay in this yard and die alone.

Wang Baobao's refusal to surrender was due to several reasons. First, it was loyalty to Bei Yuan. Second, it was the arrogance in his heart. Third, he felt that Ming Dynasty was not worthy.

Zhang Yi didn't bother to guess what he was thinking. He only had to do one thing, which was to show the best side of Daming to the other party.

If he hopes that the Ming Dynasty will not work, then he will use the prosperous age to crush him.

If his pride is shattered, he will naturally be willing to surrender.

"With an emperor guarding the country, the King of Qi is so irritated. Isn't it because your emperor only knows how to run away?"

Zhang Yi turned around and reprimanded the other party in a moderate tone.

Wang Baobao snorted coldly, Zhang Yi's words seemed to sting him particularly painfully.

But he was very smart and did not directly reply to Zhang Yi. He knew the truth.

He also understood that the emperor he was loyal to did not have the courage of Zhu Yuanzhang.

Wang Baobao originally thought that Zhang Yi would take this as an opportunity to persuade him, but Zhang Yi did not.

He just continued to stimulate Wang Baobao:
"As for the crusade against Japan, I don't need to tell King Qi much, just watch...

At most next year, my Ming Dynasty’s warships will appear in places that your great Genghis Khan never conquered..."

If you want to fight against Japan, fight against Japan. What would Genghis Khan do if nothing happens?
Wang Baobao hated the little Taoist priest in front of him deeply.

The emperor asked him to persuade him to surrender, but this guy had no intention of persuading him to surrender. He only had Han nationalism that was arrogant to the core...

If it was just lust, Wang Baobao believed that Zhang Yi had already succeeded halfway. He waited for the other party to say the next words, but Zhang Yi looked at the sky, packed his things and got ready to get off work.

Are you here with this guy just to talk to your sister and stimulate him?
He saw the other party walking away, Wang Bao kept calm for a long time, and Guanyin Nu couldn't help but smile as he looked at everything in front of him.

Only when she spent time with her brother day and night did she realize that he seemed to have fallen into Zhang Yi's trap.

After being captured, Wang Baobao was already dead, with no fighting spirit and no hope.

Zhang Yi could at least provoke his mood swings.

Maybe he can really convince his brother?
Guanyinnu did not remind Wang Baobao that she had never cared about the righteousness between Mongolians and Chinese, but more about her brother's safety.

If Daming can have a place for her brothers and sisters, that may not be a good thing!

……

When Zhang Yi came out of his imprisonment and returned to Chunqiu Temple, he found an acquaintance waiting for him.

Zhou Tong!
The deputy commander of the Jin Yiwei was sitting honestly on the carriage at the door.

Seeing Zhang Yi come back, he greeted Zhang Yi warmly.

Zhang Yi was also very happy to see him.

He was more familiar with Zhou Tong than Mao Xiang. After all, they had a friendship that shared adversity.

"His Majesty asked you to go to the palace early tomorrow morning. Originally, someone else came to inform you, but I thought we hadn't seen each other for such a long time, so I took this errand specially!"

Back in Shuntian, Zhang Yi left before Zhou Tong. When the two met again, it was natural that they had to talk about the past.

"What happened to those Mongolian troops, Your Majesty?"

"Some of them are willing to surrender. Your Majesty will break them up and train them again..."

Zhou Tong naturally had nothing to hide from Zhang Yi and told him everything he knew.

Zhang Yi nodded, it was normal to integrate these troops.

There were many cases where the Mongols surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty also had many foreign soldiers.

But this time I can swallow so many people, it may not be easy to digest.

But once digested, these people are a huge wealth.

"Those who refused to surrender were exiled by the emperor to the southwest...

These days, you guys are exhausted..."

Zhou Tong was very excited when he talked to Zhang Yi about what was ahead.

Zhang Yi nodded silently. This battle in Ming Dynasty completely chilled the hearts of the people in Mobei.

Within three years, no Mongolians should dare to go south.

And starting from the sixth year of Hongwu, given the emperor's temperament, the Han court in Mobei should be worried about whether they could still enjoy peace and prosperity, instead of going south to attack the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, Zhang Yi also understood that even if he captured Hanting like Lan Yu, the north of China would still not be at peace.

The vast Mobei is sparsely populated and beyond the reach of farming civilization, and it is destined to be unable to establish effective rule.

However, Zhang Yi is not worried that Daming will suffer losses in the future.

When real industrialization begins, the advantages of nomads will become less and less...

"By the way, Master Zhang, have you heard about it?
That Chang Mao is missing! "

Zhou Tong secretly told Zhang Yi about Chang Mao, and Zhang Yi raised his eyebrows.

It seemed that the person in front of him was Mao Xiang's confidant, but he could not know everything.

Zhang Yi's expression did not change and he pretended to be calm:
"What do you mean he's missing?"

"He just disappeared. From the day you boarded the ship, you disappeared...

This kid didn't know what he was going to do, and he was playing with himself!
Now everyone within the Xuanwu Army is looking for him, but no one can be found! "

Zhang Yi's expression remained unchanged. Regarding Chang Mao, it was best for him not to show too many emotions.

After Zhou Tong finished talking about Chang Mao, he said:
"And Lan Yu, life has been difficult recently!
Recently, Hu Weiyong interceded for him and was reprimanded by the emperor!
It seemed that the emperor had to give him some hardship...

But he was lucky. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came forward to speak for him and finally let him out of the prison of our prison! "

Blue jade is out?
Zhang Yi stared at Zhou Tong, waiting for an answer.
