Ming Dynasty: Every day, Zhu Yuanzhang is in trouble

(Wish everyone a happy new year and a prosperous Year of the Snake)
After hearing what his father said, Crown Prince Zhu Biao couldn't help but blink his eyes.

No...this is my own father, what is this?
He knew so much about mosquito coils, and he told me everything without me saying anything.

It is obvious that my father has already used it secretly.

However, after a moment of stunnedness, he thought about some of the things his father had done and felt that it was normal for his father to do these things.

This is truly something that my father would do.

Moreover, it seemed that before this, my father had already arranged a lot of people for my second brother-in-law.

This... is truly worthy of being my father.

While thinking this in his heart, Zhu Biao suppressed these unusual feelings in his heart.

Then he looked at his father and spoke again.

He informed his father of all the information he had obtained from his second brother-in-law this time...

"Good! Good! This guy really deserves to be our good son-in-law!"

After hearing what Zhu Biao said, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled.

Just give praise here directly.

It is very different from the previous hypocrisy.

In the past, no matter how well Mei Yin did, Zhu Yuanzhang would always agree with what Mei Yin said in his heart.

He won't say it.

At least they will be very tough in words.

But now it's different.

Now, Old Zhu would praise Mei Yin even in front of Zhu Biao.

Acknowledge Mei Yin’s excellence.

He is no longer as stubborn as before.

Zhu Yuanzhang really agreed with Mei Yin's ideas.

In many ways, it was what he wanted.

Especially after knowing Mei Yin's background, I realized that Mei Yin was looking at these things from the perspective of a latecomer.

In my opinion, many things are done for the first time.

But Mei Yin came from later times and knew the course and results of many things.

Even many of the processes are known.

This was evident from the fact that he specifically asked Biao'er who else would lead the troops in the attack on the southwest besides Fu Youde. After finding out, he praised Mu Ying highly.

It was also suggested that this child be stationed in the southwest in the future. It can be seen from the above that these are most likely what happened in Mei Yin's cognition.

Mu Ying must be doing very well in the southwest.

Otherwise, it would never be like this.

Moreover, it is precisely because he knows Mei Yin's special identity that Zhu Yuanzhang will now find ways to ask Mei Yin for his opinions on many important matters.

After asking, you will feel more confident when you do many things.

After hearing what Zhu Biao said, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately made a lot of arrangements.

Next, the Ming Dynasty quickly entered into a busy and intense state.

Zhu Yuanzhang also called the fifth son Zhu Su over.

Let him personally take some outstanding doctors with him and follow the army.

Prepare for the next attack on the southwest.

Zhu Yuanzhang also gave specific instructions to his fifth son.

Let Lao Wu visit his second brother-in-law Mei Yin more often when he has nothing to do in the near future.

Talk to him more about disease prevention and control in the southwest and other aspects.

Let him give more suggestions.

Try to empty Mei Yin's pocket.

After Zhu Biao went to ask Mei Yin, Zhu Yuanzhang asked Prince Zhou Zhu Su to go there to ask Mei Yin, which led to such a trip.

It's not a waste of time to take off your pants to fart.

Rather, Zhu Yuanzhang had his own considerations.

That is, Biaoer is not a real doctor after all.

When it comes to many things, I definitely don’t understand as much as Lao Wu.

Let Lao Wu go and meet that brat Mei Yin, and let him have a deep communication with Lao Wu.

Then it will definitely be of great use.

Lao Wu will definitely be able to ask some questions that he and others have never thought of and get more inspiration.

Some opportunities are coming.

Moreover, Lao Wu will personally accompany the army to the southwest in the future.

It would definitely be much better to let him ask in person than for us to ask and then report to Lao Wu.

It can be said that this time, even though he openly sent out three groups of troops.

Actually, it really counts as four routes.

The other group is a team of doctors led by Lao Wu.

Lao Wu is the commander-in-chief of this army.

And he also believed that Lao Wu’s task was equally heavy.

The effect is also very great.

He had been through battles and marches, so he knew very well how important an excellent military doctor was to the army!

What a powerful meaning!

As long as they receive proper treatment, many people who are injured on the battlefield do not have to die.

With a strong military medical system, soldiers can feel more at ease when fighting.

You can fight the enemy with more confidence.

You no longer have to worry that an injury to your hands, feet, etc. could lead to death.

Moreover, military doctors are even more important this time when attacking the southwest.

After all, there is a lot of miasma in the southwest, a lot of mosquitoes, and a lot of diseases.

Throughout history, the Central Plains has used military force against the southwest.

The most important thing to consider is never how good the people in the southwest are at fighting.

Instead, you have to consider many things like the climate, roads, diseases, etc.

As long as you can overcome this aspect, you don’t have to worry about many things.

While arranging all these things, Zhu Yuanzhang was once again looking forward to the steam locomotive made by Mei Yin.

If Mei Yin could develop a steam locomotive, it could be promoted throughout the Ming Dynasty.

There is a railway network throughout the country.

It would be so convenient to send troops to the southwest.

They just drove the train, carrying many soldiers, weapons, and food all the way.

The soldiers do not have to work hard, and they do not have to worry about the timely transportation of food and fodder.

Moreover, if food and fodder are transported by train, the loss will be at least six or seven times lower.

When sending troops to the southwest, in addition to epidemics, there is another major issue that needs to be considered, and that is the transportation of food and fodder.

After all, the road there is rugged and difficult to travel, and it is far away from here.

Even transporting food and supplies from Guangdong and other nearby provinces is not easy.

The consumption on the road is huge.

But no matter how envious I am, things haven't developed to that point yet, so I can only envy her for now.

Zhu Yuanzhang had a sense of urgency as he was now over fifty years old.

Even by simulating Mei Yin's life, I know that I have lived to a very old age.

There is at least another thirty years of life left.

But he already had a sense of urgency.

In the past, he felt that living another thirty years would be a long time.

But now, after simulating Mei Yin's life and knowing to what extent the Ming Dynasty will develop in the future, time is really running out for him.

Thirty years is not enough.

He wants to accomplish as much as possible in his limited thirty years.

Try to let him see more good things while he is alive.

Be able to see to what extent your Ming Dynasty has developed.

Some things can't be seen just in the simulator. They are just illusions after all.

At least that's the case for Zhu Yuanzhang.

Only when it becomes a reality and you see it with your own eyes can you feel at ease.

Next, with an order from Zhu Yuanzhang.

A large number of troops began to mobilize.

Many materials also began to move.

This war machine was created by Zhu Yuanzhang himself and came from the war period.

It started running rapidly again.

And once it started working, his terrifying power was once again revealed.

A large amount of supplies came together from all directions.

Then he was carried towards the southwest.

Many soldiers knew they were about to go into battle, and not only did they not have any worries, on the contrary, they were all delighted.

Extremely happy.

I am not afraid of war, I am only afraid that I will not be able to make corresponding contributions in the next battle.

I am even more afraid that I will have no part in this war.

Unable to participate in this action.

Those who were chosen were all extremely happy, while those who were not chosen were very sad.

It is more painful than losing a lot of money.

In today's Ming Dynasty, what is the best thing for ordinary people?
It's military merit.

Boss Zhu attaches great importance to military achievements, and he is particularly loyal to his promises to his soldiers.

That is truly a reward for merit.

Never be stingy, just give as much as you say!
There are basically no such things as withholding food and wages or drawing salaries without doing anything.

It is also because of this that the Ming Dynasty’s troops were able to maintain strict discipline.

Only then can you be invincible and unstoppable!

Only then can we reach where we are today step by step!
Fu Youde in Guangdong has completely let go of all the mundane affairs in Guangdong.

He only focused on preparing troops and then led them from Guangdong and began to march towards the southwest.

Compared with many things happening in this place, conquering the southwest is the real top priority.

Prince of Yan, Zhu Di, was still in charge of Guangdong, cleaning out the pests in a timely manner.

At the same time, it is also necessary to provide logistical support for Fu Youde and his army.

Give them a solid rear base.

In fact, Zhu Di also very much hoped that he could take his troops to the battlefield and fight freely.

But he also knew that it would be difficult for him to deal with these things now.

Moreover, a war requires the cooperation of many people, each performing their own duties.

Only in this way can the battle be fought perfectly.

Only in this way can we obtain as much as possible and gain greater benefits.

Although he did not fight on the battlefield.

But what we do now is equally important.

Logistics has always been particularly important.

Otherwise, why did my father reward people according to their merits and confer the title of Duke?

Li Shanchang, who had rarely been on the battlefield, was directly ranked first among the heroes.

Moreover, his life is not without purpose.

After helping father and elder brother to solve many problems as much as possible.

He can also go out to sea and pursue his future and build a career.

The days when he rode a horse with a gun in hand and roamed the yarn mills were overseas!

It’s the America that my second sister mentioned!

Here, he can only work hard to do various things well and help his father and elder brother to complete the important tasks as soon as possible.

Then, we will be able to go out to sea faster in the future.

Do what you want to do faster.

……

With Zhu Yuanzhang's order and Mei Yin's full cooperation, many mosquito coil manufacturing factories were quickly established.

Many people were recruited into the factory and began to produce mosquito coils at a rapid rate.

Not only that, in order to be able to better supply the front line and reduce transportation costs.

Mei Yin has also trained a large number of workers who are skilled in making mosquito coils?

Let them follow the troops.

Build a factory and carry out production as close to the southwest as possible.

In this way, the distance of subsequent transportation of mosquito coils can be greatly shortened.

Can reduce a lot of costs.

It's a very good thing.

By this time, Mei Yin had already run out of money to spend.

At this time, he already had greater pursuits.

It is impossible to be so calculative and calculate the gains and losses of money.

Compared to being able to make the whole world run according to your own ideas and making the entire race great, all of that is empty.

They are all things not worth mentioning.

While doing these things, Mei Yin is also making efforts in other aspects.

For example, by this time, the school founded by him had been expanded.

Ten more classes were added, and we were able to teach an additional 500 students.

Today, the teaching conducted by Mei Yin has achieved great results.

For example, the third-grade primary school students here have mastered more arithmetic knowledge than many traditional scholars who only read the Four Books and Five Classics.

Helping with the household accounts is no longer a problem.

There are achievements in all aspects.

With the strong support from Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, it was impossible for the scale of Shuangshui Village Primary School not to expand.

Now, he got more accurate news from Lao Zhu.

That is, Lao Zhu has decided to build new schools and provide education all over the country in the future.

These are the teaching materials compiled by Mei Yin.

It is ready to be implemented nationwide.

If another emperor said this, Mei Yin would definitely not believe it.

Because he knew very well how unorthodox the teaching materials he created were to traditional Confucian scholars.

That's real, you can hang someone up and burn them to death.

He was well aware of how much the many Confucian scholars disliked these things.

But at this time, the person who said these words was Zhu Yuanzhang.

He really believed that Lao Zhu had the courage and the means.

This is a person who, in the original history, could have driven Mencius out of the temple.

Now that he has his own existence, Lao Zhu can definitely act more drastically.

And more resolute.

Old Zhu was not affected by the barking of those literati.

It is even possible that if they angered Zhuge Liang, he would chop them to death.

This also made Mei Yin more and more motivated.

I just feel that the future is bright and prosperous.

Many things are moving forward in great strides according to his vision.

People like Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao have always been grateful to God for sending them such an outstanding person as Mei Yin.

In fact, didn’t Mei Yin thank God for sending him to the Hongwu period in the early Ming Dynasty and letting him meet Zhu?
Many emperors would not have been able to accomplish what he did.

It is impossible to get such a strong support.

Only Lao Zhu has the courage and the means to do this! (End of this chapter)
