King Luhuang of the Ming Dynasty: My father, Ming Taizu

Zhu Tan was stunned when he heard this.

Then he found Zhu Di winking at him.

"If you want Fourth Brother to accompany you, just tell us earlier! Then let's set off!"

Originally according to plan.

In a day or two, Zhu Di would have to take people back to Peking.

But Zhu Di, who was just bored, naturally wanted to continue hanging out.

Now he finally found such an excuse to continue following Zhu Tan to the grassland. Of course he was willing.

Zhu Tan couldn't help but shake his head.

Later generations said that Zhu Laosi and Empress Xu had a good relationship.

This doesn’t look like much, either.
This guy doesn't even want to go home!
Zhu Di walked up to Zhu Tan, hugged Zhu Tan's neck, and said with a smile: "You and me, brother! It's your duty to help you with this small favor! Let's go! I haven't been to the grassland for a long time! Let's go together!"

Mobei Grassland.

at this time.

It's midsummer.

The sun is high in the sky, and the golden sunlight shines on the grass below. The dewdrops on the grass tips shine with crystal light under the sunlight, like countless small diamonds scattered on the grassland.

The wind on the grassland is strong and fresh, carrying the fragrance of the distant mountains and the sweetness of the nearby grass, occasionally mixed with the smell of horses and the rough smell of the wool of the cavalry. The sky is as clear as blue, with a few white clouds drifting leisurely. The scene on the grassland and the vastness of the sky form a spectacular picture.

On a hill.

Two teams of men appeared.

A group of men and horses is one thousand King Lu's guards and five hundred King Yan's guards.

The other group consisted of thousands of Mongolian cavalry.

The sergeants on the Ming side were in good order, especially the Lu Wangwei.

Everyone carries a black musket.

Wearing uniform armor.

Even Yan Wangwei's face was full of solemnity at this time, extremely cold and solemn.

Not far away, the Mongolian cavalry brigade was arrayed in formation, with horse hooves trampling and dust flying. Their figures were brave and their faces were filled with the unique heroism and tenacity of the prairie people.

These cavalrymen were dressed in a variety of attire, from gray-brown woolen coats to brightly colored silk robes, and their horses had shiny hair. They seemed to be well-trained during this period.

Although there are obviously fewer people in Ming Dynasty.

But these Mongolian knights in front of them did not dare to show any signs of neglect.

in contrast.

They looked at Zhu Tan and others with awe in their eyes.

This is the result of fighting on the battlefield!

No matter where people are, they always obey the strong.

Togu Si Timur, dressed in the robes of a grassland khan, walked out of Zhutan's military formation.

Crash-!
The Mongolian knights all saluted.

"Welcome the Great Khan!"

The sound was loud.

Zhu Tan spread out an imperial edict and said loudly in front of all the Mongolian knights: "King Guiyi, Mongolian Ussar Khan, Bo'er Jijin Togu Si Timur received the edict!"

The words fell.

Togu Si Timur immediately fell to his knees.

"The minister accepts the order!"

"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: Since I ascended the throne, I have worked conscientiously and thought day and night on how to make the world peaceful and the people enjoy peace and happiness.

The Mongolian grassland straddles Han and Mongolia and has always been an important frontier area.

The disputes in the past caused friction between us. Since you presented the imperial seal to the Ming Dynasty, I am determined to write off the past and no longer have any old grudges.

Rutuo Gusi Timur is a loyal and courageous man. I specifically order you to continue to lead the Mongolian grasslands. I will send more officials to implement the policy of prosperity in the mainland on the grassland, so that the compatriots on the grassland can share the prosperity of the country with the people in the mainland of Ming Dynasty.

I am very concerned about the lives of the people on the grasslands and strive to improve their lives, just like in the mainland. I hope you will be loyal to the government, fair and selfless, care for the people, and work hard to govern, so that the grassland area will have smooth weather and simple folk customs.

I hope you will be loyal to the Ming Dynasty, loyal to the court, and maintain peace on the border. The grasslands and the mainland should work together to create long-term peace and stability. I entrust you with your careful handling of grassland matters. I pray that you will cherish this trust and trust, live up to my expectations and fulfill your mission, and encourage the grassland people so that we can work together and enjoy the blessings of a peaceful and prosperous age. This is my sincere hope. I hope you will keep it in mind and implement it diligently! "

The words fell.

Tuogu Si Timur respectfully accepted the decree and said: "Long live, long live, long live my emperor!"

Zhu Tan smiled.

This time Togus Timur returned to the grassland and brought back several of his wives.

But Tianbaonu and several other sons, such as Dibaonu, Enleboke, etc., were left in the interior.

In addition to being used as protons, Zhu Tan and Zhu Yuanzhang also hope that these people can learn more about Han knowledge and feel the power and greatness of the Ming Dynasty.

When they return to the grasslands in the future, they can continue to lead Mongolia and respect and submit to the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Tan looked at Togu Si Timur and said with a smile: "Great Khan, we say goodbye today. I don't know when we will see you again. I will give you a gift!"

Hearing this, Togu Si Timur was slightly surprised and bowed: "Thank you, Your Highness!"

As Zhu Tan spoke, he ordered the people around him to take out a telescope and handed it to Togu Si Timur.

Togu Si Timur took the telescope respectfully, but did not recognize it and was just grateful.

Zhu Di was shocked when he saw it!
Why did Lao Shi take out all these things?
Crazy?
Although the Mongols have surrendered verbally, there is still no complete peace!
This thing is really useful on the battlefield, especially on the grassland. It is possible that a telescope can determine the outcome of a battle!
Lao Shi is so ignorant!
Zhu Tan smiled and said: "Great Khan might as well try the magic of this gift!"

Hearing this, Togu Si Timur was a little curious, but he didn't know how to try it.

Zhu Tan unscrewed the cover of the telescope, handed one end to Togu Si Timur, and said with a smile: "You can take a look at it, Khan!"

Thugustimur took the telescope and looked at it.

Subsequently.

The whole person was stunned on the spot, motionless.

A whole new world suddenly opened before his eyes.

He had never imagined that this small tube-like object could contain such a strange scene between heaven and earth.

The viewing angle of the telescope was like an eagle suspended in the sky, giving him an unprecedented view. Every plant and tree on the grassland, the mountains in the distance, and even the tents of herders in the distance are clearly visible, as if they are within reach.

The dewdrops on the grass tips seemed to be magnified several times, shining with dazzling light, each one like a star in the sky.

He turned the telescope gently, and a distant horse team came into view.

These horses and riders were originally nothing more than small black dots to his naked eyes, but now they appeared clearly. He could even see the details on the horses' manes and the expressions on the riders' faces.

The leader of the cavalry is a knight in red robes. His expression is focused and determined, and the wrinkles on his face and the texture of his skin are clearly visible.

He adjusted the telescope again, and this time his eyes fell on a group of children playing by the water. These children ran and chased wantonly, and their laughter penetrated the tranquility of the grassland and penetrated into his heart.

Togu Si Timur stood there for a long time.

His voice trembled: "In addition to muskets and artillery, the Ming Dynasty actually has such artifacts! I finally know that our defeat was not unjust!"

talking.

Togu Si Timur said sincerely to Zhu Tan: "Thank you for the gift, Your Highness!"

Zhu Tan smiled but did not speak yet.

Zhu Di suddenly asked with curiosity on his face: "What is this? Let me take a look, tenth brother, what is this?"

Zhu Tan was stunned when he heard this.

Couldn't help but look at Zhu Di.

This telescope was given to him before the Northern Expedition!
Why are you suddenly pretending to be garlic now?
Togu Si Timur handed the telescope to Zhu Di honestly.

Zhu Di took it in his hand, fiddled with it, suddenly smiled and said: "Old Shi, you have good things but don't think about your brother? I don't even have this thing, so you gave it to King Guiyi? Otherwise, how about giving it to me first?" "

Zhu Di said this.

There is also some fever on the face. This thing was a gift from Lao Shi. It was a bit shameless for me to keep it like this, and it was also a bit bullying.

But there is no way.

In Zhu Di's eyes, the telescope was related to the military.

Maybe a certain war with these Mongols will come into play in the future!

If they were allowed to have such treasures, they might be the Ming Dynasties who would be passive in the future.

in the face of national interests.

Dough is nothing.

Togu Si Timur also reacted when he heard this.

Your Highness, King Yan, regrets it!
I want to keep the telescope!
This is too much!

Are you still embarrassed to say that you belong to the Kingdom of Heaven?

Ming Dynasty, do you want me to have a telescope?
Are you embarrassed to ask for something back that your brother personally gave me?

No shame!
No.

This telescope is so valuable.

In the future, whether it is to rule the grassland or to conquer other places in the future,
The value of this thing is too high!
Even if you don’t want your face, you still have to get it back!

Anyway, we can’t fall into the hands of this Zhu Laosi!

It doesn't matter even if you fall out with him!

As long as His Royal Highness Prince Lu does not regret it, he will have a chance!

Think of this.

Tuogu Si Timur's eyes suddenly fell on Zhu Di's waist.

He suddenly discovered that Zhu Di had a telescope hanging on his waist!

Togu Si Timur's face suddenly dropped.

He couldn't help but said to Zhu Di: "Your Highness King Yan, if you want to pretend that you don't know this telescope next time, at least put away the one hanging on your waist, right?"

When Zhu Di heard this, his face turned red.

Then he looked at his waist and frowned: "What's going on? Who hung this thing on my waist? Why didn't I know that I also have a telescope?"

His words trailed off.

Not only was Tuogusi Timur speechless.

Even the Yanwang guards behind him didn't know what to say.

Zhang Yu, Zhu Neng and others looked up at the sky, pretending not to see it.

Shame
Too shameful!

His Highness King Yan
It's not that you can't make excuses, but you can't make such a bad excuse either!

Zhu Tan was stunned when he saw this.

Why is Fourth Brother so crazy?

Isn't it just a telescope?
What's more.

That's only eight times as much.

From now on, the Ming army will use sixteen times the force
Why do you treasure it?

Togu Si Timur gritted his teeth.

Now it seems that the only way to advance is to retreat.

He sighed to Zhu Tan.

"Oh, I originally thought His Highness King Lu was so generous that he was willing to give me such a treasure!
I also thought in my heart that Ming Dynasty should have no grudge against us Mongolians, and we will all be a family from now on!
Unexpectedly, His Highness King Yan was so defensive. He had already given away what he had given away, and he still wanted to get it back! "

talking.

Togu Si Timur smiled bitterly.

"His Royal Highness King Lu, I appreciate your kindness. Although His Majesty said that the world is unified and Mongolian and Han are one family, but now it seems that not everyone is willing to do this.
Since you are so reluctant to part with this telescope, I will not force it.
All I can say is that our relationship has not reached this point yet. "

talking.

Togu Si Timur looked disappointed.

behind him.

Although the large group of Mongolian knights didn't understand what was going on.

But they clearly saw that Zhu Tan gave Togu Si Timur a telescope, but in the blink of an eye they were asked back.

And his own Khan looked like he dared not speak out when he was angry.

The crowd couldn't help but feel angry.

Seeing the situation in front of her, Zhu Tan was speechless.

It's not necessary at all!
My fourth brother
OK!
The telescope I gave to Togus Timur. On the one hand, it has average accuracy and is usable, but it is not as good as the Ming Dynasty's military telescope.

It was only given to enhance friendship and trust between the two parties.

on the other hand.

Also to scare the Mongols!
Isn't such a huge iron-making workshop powerful?
Is such a magical telescope powerful?

The Ming Dynasty not only had an invincible army, but also sharp muskets and artillery.

There are also telescopes and tons of resources!
With the Mongols' little wealth, fighting against the Ming Dynasty is totally seeking death!

This is the world that Zhu Tan wants Tuogu Si Timur to see!

At present, the goal has actually been achieved.

In Togus Timur's view, both the terrifying iron-making workshop and the telescope in front of him were things beyond the imagination of the Mongolians.
Deep in his heart, he has established a deep respect for Daming!

He was just angry. Why was the telescope given to him by Zhu Tan still being snatched away by His Highness King Yan?
Zhu Di was silent at this time, just holding the telescope and pretending to look into the distance.

All in all, I'm committed to this thing.

Never hand it over to the Mongols!

Togu Si Timur sighed: "What a gift. Alas, now I have to give it up!"

Zhu Di suddenly said angrily: "King Guiyi! I know that you want to give up! But can you let go of your hand! Why are you holding on to the telescope so tightly after you have given up?"

Togu Si Timur frowned and said: "I am not an ignorant person! Since His Highness King Yan wants it, I will definitely give it to him!"

"You should let go."

"Your Highness Prince Yan, you really want it!"

"I want it! Let go!"

"What do you want? What should I loose?"

Zhang Yu couldn't help but sigh.

"Look at our Highness and King Guiyi! This is what makes a superior man! As far as our temperament is concerned, there is a huge difference!"

Zhu Neng whispered: "Are you shameless? That's really far from it."

Zhu Gaoxu heard the words and said with a smile: "Uncle Zhu Neng, you said my father is shameless? Haha, I want to tell my father!"

The child's voice was crisp and clear, instantly echoing around.

Zhu Neng:.
not far away.

When Zhu Di heard this, he immediately glared at Zhu Neng angrily.

Zhang Yu looked at Zhu Neng sympathetically.

"Lao Zhu, the look in His Highness's eyes is worth at least 100 military sticks!"

Zhu Neng:.
When Togu Si Timur heard what everyone said, he couldn't help but said to Zhu Di: "Your Highness, King Yan, if we continue to fight, we will lose face!" (End of this chapter)
