Ming Dynasty: Every day, Zhu Yuanzhang is in trouble

For this reason, at the beginning, even after Zhu Di knew some of the things that He Zhen had said to him, he did not actually take direct action against those people.

Instead, they exert pressure step by step through some actions.

Every step we take will make those people feel uncomfortable.

Extreme oppression.

Then these people really took the risk and prepared to attack him.

Then, Zhu Di seized the opportunity and struck hard!
rebel?

What he likes to see most is someone rebelling!

Someone wants to assassinate the king!
Things like this couldn't be handled more smoothly!

It can be said that in the past one or two years, Zhu Yuanzhang liked to pick Zhu Di out and let Zhu Di take on important tasks.

It makes sense to deal with some difficult things.

On the one hand, it was because Zhu Di was indeed very reliable, resourceful, and daring enough to take ruthless actions.

Things were handled beautifully.

It can be said that many things are particularly in line with Zhu Yuanzhang's character and in line with Zhu Yuanzhang's wishes.

Old Zhu couldn't help but applaud.

Another reason is that he is Lao Zhu's biological son.

Old Zhu would not feel comfortable putting such power in anyone's hands.

But he was completely confident in letting his own son Zhu Di do it.

And Zhu Di was here, dealing with these people like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.

Fu Youde has also completely taken control of the troops here and completely replaced Zhu Liangzu.

Zhu Liangzu's influence in the army here has been completely eliminated.

Of course, doing these things was not so smooth at the beginning.

But Fu Youde handled it very well.

On the one hand, his prestige is enough. After all, he fought his way up step by step.

He is the Marquis of Yingchuan, and he has a lot of military merits, qualifications and prestige.

On the other hand, it was because Fu Youde told these people a piece of news.

The news was nothing more than the emperor preparing to use military force in the southwest.

Guangdong will become the main force on one side.

After this news came out, those who were originally dissatisfied had their dissatisfaction disappear completely in an instant!

Those who originally missed Zhu Liangzu also changed their attitudes in an instant.

When Zhu Liangzu was in power, the emperor did not explicitly say that he wanted to use military force in the southwest.

Therefore, only a small number of people have made some guesses about this.

Now, after Fu Youde came here, he brought them such news.

In this situation, what else can they do?
Zhu Liangzu is dead and that’s it!

It is still most important to pursue your own future!
And to be honest, Zhu Liangzu was the one who sought death, which led to his fate. He doesn't deserve any sympathy.

It is said that each of these military generals has made very clear calculations.

Know where their real good days are.

The real good days are nothing else but when the emperor starts to fight wars.

This is their real good day.

Now that the world is pacified, there are fewer and fewer places where wars are needed.

In the future, there will also be fewer and fewer opportunities to use military force.

This deployment of troops to the southwest can be said to be a rare opportunity in recent years.

Although the battlefield is dangerous, these people have been fighting for half their lives.

How could I be afraid of danger!
I’m afraid there will be no war to fight.

Fighting in wars means having military merits, which means you can be promoted.

Represents glory and wealth!

Those who have titles want to move up.

Those who have obtained the title of Marquis want to become the Duke.

Those who have obtained the title of Duke also want to ensure that the title will be hereditary.

Ordinary soldiers want to become centurions or thousand-man rank soldiers.

Those thousand households wanted one to be passed down from generation to generation.

It can be said that the military merit promotion method formulated by Zhu Yuanzhang really controlled many generals and soldiers.

They will involuntarily desire war.

Want to gain more through war.

Keep climbing up.

For this reason, Fu Youde clearly informed the emperor that he would send troops to the southwest.

And under the circumstance that they will be the main force, these people will make this choice.

In an instant, all the dissatisfaction caused by Zhu Liangzu's capture was suppressed, and Zhu Liangzu's influence among the troops here was completely eliminated.

It's also reasonable.

Not surprising at all.

After finishing these things, looking at the newly renovated military camp, I felt the fighting spirit of many people.

Even Fu Youde couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

The position is worthy of being the one in the upper position. Considering all aspects, it is really good.

The situation here is exactly as the superior had told me before.

As long as we come here and do this, we will be able to stabilize the morale of the army quickly.

At this time, Fu Youde himself could be said to be very grateful to Zhu Liangzu.

After all, originally, he had no chance of getting this job.

This is a commander who leads troops independently!

If you can do well, you may even be promoted to Duke.

But this guy Zhu Liangzu just wanted to seek death and caused all kinds of trouble.

Instead, I got a great bargain.

While thanking Zhu Liangzu, he couldn't help but be secretly alert in his heart.

learn a lesson.

I must always remember Zhu Liangzu's ending today.

We must not make these mistakes in the future.

As long as I don't make these mistakes, I can rely on my own abilities and merits.

The days ahead will surely be very good.

Today, the world is peaceful and wars are becoming less and less frequent.

If you really count, there is only the southwest and the Northern Yuan court left.

There are not many other opportunities to gain military merit.

The correct thing to do is to take advantage of the last chance to get a higher title and become a duke.

It would be best if you could live with the country, that would be the best.

……

"Second brother-in-law, the emperor is preparing to send troops to the southwest.

Recover the southwest.

Second brother-in-law, please give some advice to the advisors and give them some ideas."

In Shuangshui Village, Prince Zhu Biao came here again.

After Mei Yin made a delicious meal, he looked at Mei Yin and asked this question.

After listening to what Zhu Biao said, Mei Yin was not surprised at all.

Because according to the original history, Zhu Yuanzhang used troops against the southwest in the 14th year of Hongwu.

Now, because of my existence, many things have changed a lot.

It is now the twelfth year of Hongwu. Zhu Yuanzhang sent troops to the southwest two years in advance in preparation for recovering the southwest. There is nothing strange about this.

"Brother, I really don't know how to lead troops in battle.

Father is an expert in military operations, so he can take care of these things himself."

Hearing what Mei Yin said, Zhu Biao couldn't help but smile to himself.

The second brother-in-law doesn't know yet that his past has already been known by his father.

It's still hiding here at this time.

“This is different, my second brother-in-law still needs to think about it more.

And the southwest is different from other places.

The southwest is mountainous and forested, with rugged terrain and miasma.

It can be said to be very dangerous...

If we use our troops in the southwest, we will fight with real swords and guns. Our Ming soldiers are absolutely invincible, and your father has nothing to worry about..."

Zhu Biao looked at Mei Yin and said this.

When saying this, Zhu Biao seemed very tough.

What Zhu Biao said was not an exaggeration at all.

The Ming Dynasty today is truly qualified to say these words.

After all, the Ming Dynasty is now strong in both military and military power.

Many of the founding generals and troops are still there, and there is no need to say more about how strong their fighting capacity is.

What he said was not exaggeration, but the truth.

Now that the Ming Dynasty is going to recover the southwest, there is really no need to worry about military strength.

The environment is what Zhu Yuanzhang is most worried about.

When Mei Yin heard Zhu Biao's words, he understood the main purpose of his brother-in-law coming to see him this time.

He also felt deeply about this.

I also agree with the considerations of Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang.

Old Zhu is worthy of being Old Zhu, an expert in fighting.

All aspects have been taken into consideration before the fight actually starts.

Mei Yin wholeheartedly supported Zhu's plan to recover the southwest.

After all, in his mind, the southwest is part of China.

Now, it is only natural for Zhu to send troops to the southwest to drive away King Liang of the Yuan Dynasty who occupied the southwest.

Mei Yin supported Zhu Yuanzhang from the bottom of his heart.

Mei Yin then said, "Brother, what you said is correct.

It is indeed not easy to travel to the southwest.

The natural conditions are too harsh.

These considerations are correct.

I think there are a few things I need to consider carefully when I get there.

The first is the prevention and control of mosquitoes.

We can develop more drugs to prevent and control mosquitoes.”

Mei Yin said this and took out a box from the house.

This thing is black and disc-shaped.

In the middle is like the Yin and Yang fish of Tai Chi, intertwined with each other.

Mei Yin took it out and quickly separated it with his hands gently.

Zhu Biao then discovered that this thing could actually be divided into two.

Mei Yin lit it with fire, and soon green smoke rose.

The mosquito coil began to burn slowly, emitting some smell.

"Second brother-in-law, what is this?"

Zhu Biao looked at Mei Yin and asked.

Mei Yin said: "The name of this thing is mosquito coil.

It's a little gadget I made.

It is particularly effective in repelling mosquitoes.

In the future, when the army goes out to fight, they should bring more mosquito coils with them. When they set up camp in the southwest, they can light them. They can even carry them with them and light them when they are marching.

It can effectively prevent mosquito bites.

Many diseases, especially some highly contagious diseases, can be transmitted through mosquito bites.

With this stuff, these can be prevented to a large extent.”

After hearing what Mei Yin said, Zhu Biao looked at the black mosquito coil, and his eyes almost lit up.

I just feel that my second brother-in-law is simply amazing!

Whatever I think about here, he will have it here!
Mei Yin was also very happy.

By the way, this mosquito coil is a method of making it that he obtained by feeding pigs during this period of time to become stronger.

After getting the method of making mosquito coils, he started making mosquito coils without any hesitation.

He has a deep hatred for mosquitoes and other insects.

Being bitten by mosquitoes is really annoying.

He had some mosquito repellents here in the past.

However, its effect is still much worse than that of mosquito coils in later generations.

It is far inferior to the mosquito coils of later generations.

The key is that the materials used in this mosquito coil are relatively simple.

After large-scale production, the price can be brought down to a very low level.

In the future, it will become something that ordinary families can afford.

And it is precisely because we know that this thing is useful, a good thing that benefits the country and the people.

So Mei Yin got this method and quickly made some mosquito coils.

We immediately invested in building a factory and hired people to produce mosquito coils.

By this time, it had already reached a certain scale.

Just wait until the weather gets warmer and the mosquitoes disappear, and then start promoting it outside.

As a result, Zhu Yuanzhang is now preparing to send troops to the southwest.

Just enough to be used.

"Brother, I will continue to expand the scale.

Produce more mosquito coils as quickly as possible.

We will strive to provide the army with more equipment."

Mei Yin gave Zhu Biao a guarantee.

Zhu Biao was delighted when he heard this and said, “I feel relieved when you say this, my second brother-in-law.

I really don’t know what to say.”

Mei Yin smiled and said, “These are what we should do.

I also want to see the Ming Dynasty become more prosperous.

After taking the southwest, we can send troops to places like Annan in the future, incorporate them into the territory of our Ming Dynasty, and integrate them completely.

It will definitely be useful in the future, and will be especially beneficial to our Ming Dynasty's opening up of the sea.

To acquire and govern the southwest now is to gain experience for the future."

After that, Mei Yin continued: "In addition to preventing mosquito bites, there is another more important thing, which is to strictly prohibit drinking raw water.

This must be remembered.

There are many insect eggs, bacteria and other things in raw water, especially the closer you get to the south, the more so.

If people drink raw water, these insect eggs and other things, once they multiply in the body, will pose a great threat to the health of many people.

Many people will die as a result.

The most typical example is schistosomiasis...

The most effective way is to drink boiled water.

Boil the water and kill the insect eggs and other things in it before drinking it, and you won’t have to worry about this.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Biao immediately took out his small notebook and wrote it down.

“Besides that, I think maybe we can bring the fifth brother along.

Let the fifth brother go with the army.

The fifth brother is a real doctor with extraordinary medical skills.

Moreover, he has a lot of understanding about treating diseases, preventing epidemics, and many other aspects.

It can be said to be the best today.

With Brother Wu accompanying me, many things can be prevented in advance.

Minimize the number of soldiers getting sick.

If someone gets sick, we can provide some corresponding methods to treat them as soon as possible..."

Zhu Biao nodded when he heard this and took note of Mei Yin's words.

Next, Mei Yin talked a lot about how to prevent epidemics there.

Zhu Biao took note of it very carefully and prepared to do it one by one when he returned.

After saying this, Mei Yin looked at Zhu Biao and said, "Brother, who are you going to let lead the troops in this attack on the southwest?"

Mei Yin is still very concerned about this matter.

Zhu Biao had nothing to hide on this point.

He immediately told Mei Yin about it.

In addition to Fu Youde, two other people were mentioned... (End of this chapter)
