Daming: The Sims, Lao Zhu’s mentality collapsed

Chapter 92: Smoke rises from the Mediterranean Sea, and the Ming army advances into Eastern Rome

[At the beginning of the establishment of the dynasty, Zhu Di and the King of Wu shared the world. Whenever Zhu Di went to the north, he would let the King of Wu stay in the capital to supervise the country. 】

[In the ninth year of Yongle, Zhu Di and King Wu visited Beijing together, and ordered you, the crown prince, to supervise the country and Zhu Youyu to assist the government. 】

[This is the first time you have come into contact with the highest authority of this empire, but now you are no longer the frivolous young man you were back then. Under the careful guidance of Brother Yu, and after years of political cultivation, you have become indifferent to emotions and anger. In color, the city in the chest is unfathomable. 】

[This is what Brother Yu taught you. He said: As a superior, the first thing you must learn is to be restrained, that is, to hide your emotions. Even if you are not absolutely sure about something, you should pretend to be sure and be absolutely convincing in front of your ministers. 】

[It took you ten years to learn to be restrained and hide your anger and unruliness. Others can only see calmness and calmness in you. 】

[But it’s all an act. 】

[Previously, the chief envoy of Shandong Province sent a memorial to Chen Hong, and the cabinet people came to you to discuss how to deal with it. You seemed to be calm and said, "Don't be impatient, I will go alone." But in fact, you were panicking inside. , hurriedly ran to Brother Yu for help. 】

[After you obtained the disaster relief plan from Brother Yu, you pretended to be calm and returned to the cabinet, bringing the solution to the cabinet ministers. The cabinet ministers all praised you, "Taishan collapsed in front of you but your appearance remained unchanged. The elk are thriving on the left but their eyes cannot blink." The emperor heard about this after returning to Beijing from his northern tour and praised you greatly. 】

[This situation lasted until both King Wu and the emperor passed away, and you ascended the throne, with the title of Hongxi and the title of Emperor Hongxi. 】

Lao Zhu was a little speechless. Zhu Gaoxu was really good at it. Even if he took away his eldest brother's crown prince and throne, why did he also take over the reign title?

There is no rush for this title. The only one who has used the title "Hongxi" in the past is Zhu Gaochi in the simulation, who died after reigning for only ten months.

[After succeeding to the throne, you continued the economic system of Emperor Taizong Wen and Emperor Wu of Chengzu during the Yongle Dynasty. You established a complete commercial and financial system through the Royal Bank of the Ming Dynasty. You sailed treasure ships to the West, collected gems from the southwest, and gold beads from the southeast. Trade with neighboring countries and establish the South China Sea Silk Road. 】

[You followed the example of Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty and established the Anxi Dusi in Xizhou with 200,000 troops stationed. In the second year of Hongxi, Anxi Dusi sent troops to march eastward to attack the Chagatai Khanate. The war lasted less than ten months, and all the Khans of the Chagatai Khanate surrendered. 】

[You decree to revoke the title of the Chagatai Khanate and change it to Hami Province, and establish three divisions in Hami Province, with British Duke Zhang Yu as the first governor of Hami. 】

[The following year, you put the British Duke Zhang Yu in charge of the Eastern Route Army to attack the Timur Empire. Xu Jingchang, Duke of Ding, took charge of the Northern Route Army and attacked the Golden Horde. 】

[In the same year, most of the territory of the Timurid Empire fell under the iron heel of the Ming army. At the end of the year, Sarai, the capital of the Golden Horde, was captured by the Ming army. 】

[You removed the country name of the Timur Empire and changed it to "Persian Province". The country name was also removed from the Golden Horde and was changed to "Kipchak Province". 】

[The Grand Duchy of Moscow, which is adjacent to Kipchak Province, is deeply anxious. They have been beaten by the Mongols for hundreds of years. Even after the demise of the Yuan Dynasty, they were "bullied" by the Mongolian nobles who split the Yuan Dynasty. 】

[Moscow people don’t have to worry now. The Mongolian nobles were slaughtered by the Ming army. Now anyone who dares to say that he is a descendant of Genghis Khan will be slapped twice by the passing Ming army. 】

[Their annoying Mongolian neighbor is gone, but a more powerful neighbor has arrived - the Ming Empire. 】

[The Grand Duke of Moscow hesitated for a long time, but finally decided to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. 】 【You quite think about this. Although the Principality of Muscovy is not a big country, it has been able to support itself for hundreds of years under the bullying of the Mongols, which shows that this country still has some strength. It is so easy to attack the Ming Dynasty. White flag? 】

[Don’t let the fat meat that comes to your door go to waste. In line with the principle of not wasting it, you made the Grand Duke of Moscow the king of Moscow, established a province in Moscow, and Dingxi Marquis Jiang Gui served as the governor of Moscow. 】

[In the eighth year of Hongxi period, the Ottoman princes invaded the Persian provinces on a large scale. You don’t know where the Ottomans got the courage to challenge the Ming Dynasty. If you remember correctly, this country was beaten by the Timurid Empire decades ago. Even the emperor Bayezid didn’t recognize it. He became a prisoner of the Timur Empire. It was not until more than ten years ago that the split was ended and the territories occupied by the Timur Empire were recovered. 】

[Now that even the once prosperous Timurid Empire was turned into a Persian province by the Ming army, the Ottoman princes actually had the guts to attack the Ming Dynasty? 】

[You can only say that the Ottomans are brave. 】

[You appointed the Western Marquis Jiang Gui to serve as the governor of Persia, and led the Persian army to fight back against the Ottoman princes. Three months later, the Ottoman princes perished, and you established the "Turkic Province" on the ruins of the Ottomans. 】

[At this time, the Ming Dynasty’s territory in the west has expanded to the Mediterranean. Of course you have to visit the Byzantine Empire, which lasted for thousands of years, which is the so-called Eastern Roman Empire. 】

[On New Year's Eve in the 10th year of Hongxi's reign, at the end of Rome, the Ming army's sun and moon flag appeared on Constantinople. 】

[You heard that the Byzantine Empire has a brother with a very domineering name, "Holy Roman Empire". 】

[In the fifteenth year of Hongxi's reign, the Holy Roman Empire was no longer holy, and the capital Vienna was filled with sun and moon flags. 】

[The Romans have already begun to curse, and they are all greeting the mother of the Ottoman monarch. If the Ottomans had made trouble and provoked the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty would not have invaded the Mediterranean. If the Ming Dynasty had not invaded the Mediterranean, the Ming Dynasty would not have destroyed the Byzantine Empire. If the Byzantine Empire had not been destroyed, the Ming Dynasty would not have thought of sending troops to Vienna. 】

[As of the 20th year of Hongxi, the Ming Dynasty had a total of seven more provinces than the Yongle Dynasty, namely: Hami Province, Persian Province, Kipchak Province, Moscow Province, Turkic Province, Byzantine Province, and Roman Province. 】

[You use the province of Persia as the boundary to divide the continent. The east of Persia is the Shenri Continent, and Beijing is the capital of the continent. Persia used Jingyuezhou and Constantinople as its capital. 】

[In your later years, you still thought about sending troops to France, but it is a pity that you have reached the end of your life. At this time, what Ming Dynasty needs is stability, so that the throne can be passed on in a logical manner. 】

[The territory of the Ming Dynasty is too vast, even wider than the Yuan Empire established by Genghis Khan. You have conquered almost half of the west. It takes more than a hundred days to send troops from Beijing to the farthest province of Rome. 】

[The reason why the Ming Dynasty has not been divided yet is because the governors of the provinces are loyal enough to you. But once you die, these governors may not be so loyal to the Ming Dynasty. 】

[After the death of Qin Shihuang, the second generation of the Great Qin Empire died. You don’t want the Ming Dynasty to become the second Great Qin. 】

[At the last moment of your life, you summoned Zhu Youyu. 】
