Ming Dynasty: The poisonous imperial teacher, Zhu Yuanzhang advised me to be kind

Chapter 26 Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked. Chu Nan’s scheme even poisoned me!
"What?" But after Chu Nan finished speaking, the princes present were all shocked.

"They have worked hard all their lives to expand the territory of our Ming Dynasty, and their fate may be death. In the end, they still have to be grateful to us?"

They don’t understand. Isn’t this too outrageous?

"Shouldn't it be?" But Chu Nan asked in surprise.

"Your Majesty knows that they like to fight, so you let them fight. So it is their right to die. After all, a gentleman will die for his friend."

"In the past, Huo Qubing conquered the Wolf's Lair, which was the highest achievement of Chinese military commanders. Your Majesty has allowed these generals to fight further and achieve higher achievements than Huo Qubing. Shouldn't they thank Your Majesty?"

"This..." The princes didn't know how to refute for a moment, it seemed to make some sense.

What are you thanking me for? But Zhu Yuanzhang was speechless.

This plan was clearly proposed by you, Chu Nan. You want them to thank me? I am afraid that my life will be shortened by such a vicious plan.

At this time, Chu Nan also pointed out some points that need to be paid attention to: "However, this plan is too vicious, so it can only deal with those disobedient generals."

"As for those who are obedient, such as the pillars of the Ming Dynasty Xu Da, Tang He, and General Li Wenzhong, of course, it cannot be used on them."

"That makes sense." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded. Xu Da, Tang He, and Li Wenzhong were still relatively stable. If there were no accidents, he would naturally let them live out their lives in peace.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry at Lan Yu and other arrogant and brave generals that his horse's head almost hit his head. He was capable of such a thing.

Therefore, he was not sure about Lan Yu's fate.

"Haha." Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang sneered.

Chu Nan's strategy is quite good. After pacifying the Northern Yuan Dynasty, the world was peaceful. Many generals were indeed useless. In the future, whoever disobeys can follow this strategy.

Zhao Kuangyin gave up his military power with a toast, but I gave it back to them. Am I not more merciful than Zhao Kuangyi? Old Zhu is really kind and amiable!

And there is Liu Bowen, this old guy is always disobedient. Damn it, when the time comes, just make Liu Bowen the King of the Japanese and occupy Japan.

What? You, Liu Bowen, said that Japan is not good? I will reward you with a Japanese woman.

What? You, Liu Bowen, said that Japanese women are only 1.2 meters tall? Then I'll give you two, stack them up and use them!

Then even if there is no idea of ​​expansion at that time, the idea of ​​plundering resources can indeed be considered.

After all, the Ming Dynasty is currently facing a severe shortage of various resources.

"But." But at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang expressed his doubts again.

"Chun Nan, your plan is indeed very good, but the Yuan people have not been destroyed yet, so let's wait and see. It can be used later."

"What's your best plan? Tell me about it." He still remembered that Chu Nan had a better plan.

At the same time, he also felt that Chu Nan was too outstanding. They were all young people, but how come Chu Nan was so much better than his sons.

And he is more powerful than many ministers. He is truly an unparalleled poison master! He must be reused!

"Yes, Lord Chu, what is your plan?" The princes admired Chu Nan more and more and were looking forward to hearing Chu Nan's plan.

"Are you okay with this? It's simple." Chu Nan was about to speak.

"Wait a minute." But Zhu Yuanzhang became a little worried when he heard it.

"Is your plan not very vicious?" After all, Chu Nan's previous plans were so vicious. He was really afraid that Chu Nan's plan was also very vicious, which would shorten his life.

Then he looked at Chu Nan and became serious: "You have to be kinder!" "This..." Seeing this scene, the princes who had always been afraid of Zhu Yuanzhang were shocked.

In their eyes, their father, who had always been vicious, had become increasingly worried about Chu Nan's schemes recently?
You know, Zhu Yuanzhang used to be the one who advocated using cruel means to rule his people. In the past, Yang Xian was favored by Zhu Yuanzhang because of his cruel means.

But now, Zhu Yuanzhang actually advised Chu Nan to be kind! It was out of character.

Chu Nan was also very shocked at this moment. What did he mean by advising me to be kind? Am I, Chu Nan, cruel?
Then he reluctantly promised Zhu Yuanzhang: "Your Majesty, rest assured, this plan includes good people."

This time, the plan is truly kind.

"Okay, then tell me." Seeing Chu Nan's kindness, Zhu Yuanzhang felt relieved. Chu Nan finally had a good plan.

The princes also felt relieved, as the poison was finally gone.

"Okay." Chu Nan also turned directly to Zhu Yuanzhang and spoke.

"Your Majesty, what you are worried about is that these arrogant soldiers are too arrogant. You are afraid that they will rebel."

"And why are they so arrogant? The reason is very simple, because they have the military power in their hands! The current situation is that the Ming Dynasty has one or two million troops, but they are all controlled by a few generals."

"This situation is very bad. The military strength in the hands of any general can affect the safety of Ming Dynasty, so we have to reform the military system."

"Indeed." Everyone nodded.

People like Xu Da, Tang He, and Li Wenzhong all had hundreds of thousands of troops under their command. If any of them rebelled, the Ming Dynasty would collapse in an instant.

Although they will not rebel, if such a system continues to be used, it is hard to say what will happen to future generations.

Thinking about this, Zhu Yuanzhang became curious: "What system is used then?"

"I suggest using the Wei Suo system." Chu Nan smiled slightly and then began to explain.

"All the armies of the Ming Dynasty will be deployed in a unified manner, and then divided into dozens of garrisons according to prefectures, states, and counties. Each garrison will only be allocated a few thousand soldiers."

"These soldiers are managed by the generals of the garrisons. In their spare time, they cultivate the land, and in times of war, they fight."

"As for those generals who have been stripped of their military power, it's up to them. They can stay in the capital if they want, and they can lead troops if they want, but they are usually only allowed to lead the soldiers of one garrison."

"And in this case, those generals who used to lead tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of soldiers will suddenly only lead a few thousand people at most. Can he still be so arrogant?"

Chu Nan finished talking about this method, but he was smiling faintly in his heart.

Because this Wei Suo system was not thought up by Chu Nan, but was proposed and implemented by Zhu Yuanzhang and his ministers in the 18th year of Hongwu.

But it is only the third year of Hongwu, and Zhu Yuanzhang probably hasn't even had this idea.

This is the advantage of being a time traveler, including the establishment of an intelligence agency, which was also an idea Chu Nan borrowed from Zhu Yuanzhang.

Haha, you asked me what to do about this matter. I will just use your own method in the future to deal with it. This is the best solution.

And you, Zhu Yuanzhang, don't you always say that my schemes are vicious? But I am such a kind person, so my scheme this time is not vicious, right?

But if Zhu Yuanzhang knew what Chu Nan was thinking now, he would definitely explode with anger.

Yes, yes, your plan itself is not vicious this time, but your intention is very vicious! You took out my idea in advance to deal with me? Then what good ideas can I, Zhu Yuanzhang, come up with in the future?

Am I not a fool who only listens to others' advice and cannot think of solutions on my own? Am I not going to live in your shadow forever?
You, Chu Nanxing, you are noble and great, but when you get ruthless, you even plot against me!
