Yongle Emperor's grandson: Zhu Yuanzhang with cheats, Zhu Di went crazy

Chapter 341: The authorities are confused, but the bystanders are clear
It is definitely impossible to exchange his son for his business. Zhu Zhanjun is a principled man. He cannot exchange his children's happy marriage for his business.

Of course, if you want to marry a wife, that’s a different story, but if you want to marry a daughter, you don’t even have to consider it.

After drawing up the purchase agreement and taking a look at the aircraft and airship manufacturing factory, the group returned to the courtyard.

Li Shimin did want to get some planes and airships, but for the same reason, no one knew how to fly them, so he could only feel full of regret.

When they returned to the courtyard, Empress Ma and others had already prepared the banquet.

Gongsun Qi and others who were notified to attend the banquet were already waiting in the yard.

Zhu Zhanjun gave some further introductions, and everyone exchanged greetings.

Especially when it came to Huo Qubing and Gongsun Qi, Li Shimin's eyes were full of envy.

Every emperor likes this kind of great commander or general who can launch a raid thousands of miles away, and hopes to have such a talent under his command.

At Huo Qubing's enthusiastic invitation, everyone raised their glasses to celebrate. Cheng Yaojin and others, who were drinking strong liquor for the first time, turned red in the face after a few drinks.

"Your Majesty, I heard a piece of news today."

After the banquet, Jia Xu stood up and spoke.

Zhu Zhanjun stopped talking and drinking, looked at Jia Xu, and waited for his news.

Ji Gang used his connections to send the other party to the military academy and he became a staff officer in the command department.

Relying on his own talents, Jia Xu's grades have always been among the best and attracted the attention of many people.

Because of this, Jia Xu had contact with many high-level officials and was able to obtain information more easily than Ji Gang, who specialized in intelligence.

"Is it about the two of them, or something outside?"

Apart from his uncle of the Great Yan Kingdom and the regent Ying Zheng, the only issue that Jia Xu could bring up at this time was the external situation.

Jia Xu nodded and said, "Today our academy organized an exercise, and the content of the exercise is to land and conquer the Fusang Kingdom in the east."

Zhu Zhanjun did not interrupt and gestured to the other party to continue speaking.

Jia Xu continued, "Although Fusang is much weaker than Da Yan in terms of strength, it is surrounded by the sea and has natural defensive power."

"If you want to attack them, there are only two options. The first is airdrop, and the second is landing operations."

"But no matter which of these two methods, they both use one's own weaknesses to attack the enemy's strengths."

"Our group is responsible for attacking, and the other group is responsible for defending. After many simulations, although we have won every time, we have always suffered heavy casualties in the end."

"After the school submitted our simulation, we were interviewed one by one by our respective teachers in the afternoon."

"My teacher is the regent's man, and he plans to recommend me to the military department."

"Although they didn't say what they were responsible for, I guess the Regent and the King's uncle have probably reached some kind of agreement and are ready to open it up to the outside world first."

"And their first target is the isolated Fuso Kingdom in the east."

He pondered for a moment and continued, "As far as I know, not only the Great Yan Nation, but also several other giants have made moves."

"They all have their own conflicts, and after years of preparation, they can no longer hold back."

"So I guess that it only takes a small spark to cause a violent reaction outside."

Gongsun Qi also spoke up: "Yes, I am at the Army Academy and have received a transfer order from above. I have been assigned to the 13th Corps as the head of the corps."

"Moreover, in our private exchanges, many people are dissatisfied with the Regent, thinking that he is suspected of treason and that his ideas on military education are completely different from those of the major academies."

"Even if some people will side with the Regent because of power and interests, those low-level officers cannot come into contact with people of your level. They only recognize orders, not people."

"And their orders must be issued by the emperor and the Military Affairs Council. Without the permission of the emperor and the Military Affairs Council, they can refuse to execute orders from anyone, including the regent."

"Besides that, I also contacted the academy. According to an old general who started the rebellion with the emperor, he said so."

"If the emperor feels that some departments or certain individuals threaten the rule of the imperial power, he can directly skip the various departments and give orders directly to the generals at the border."

"We can mobilize the troops at the border and go directly to the capital to defend the king."

After hearing the two people's stories, Zhu Zhanjun frowned and fell into deep thought.

Li Shimin and others were not clear about the situation and could only ask people around them.

After Li Shimin finished listening, he shook his head and stood up and said, "My dear, you are also an outstanding emperor with so many talents at your disposal, why are you so timid?"

Zhu Zhanjun looked at him, and Li Shimin said, "Actually, your situation is similar to mine, but because of your identity, those two people dare not attack you directly, so they keep you as a puppet."

"If it's just one person staring at you, it could be a bit troublesome."

"But the more people there are, the easier it will be to solve this problem."

"But if this happens, the Great Yan Nation will fall into turmoil. Once the outside world takes this opportunity to launch an attack, the Great Yan Nation will be in a passive position."

Zhu Qizhen felt that he had learned for so long, and after listening to Li Shimin's words, he raised his concerns. Li Shimin shook his head speechlessly: "You have fallen into a misunderstanding, always thinking about the troops of the Great Yan Kingdom, but don't forget that you have two worlds."

"I just asked Brother Zhu, the Ming world is already preparing for war, and these huge armies have not yet moved."

"Other forces in the Ming world pose no threat to the Ming. It's easy to defeat them. We can easily deal with them when we have time."

"In the second world, you have already advanced to the Indian region. The Angel Alliance is being held back by the Russians. They don't actually want to go to war with you."

"As long as you choose to consolidate your defense in the Indian area and pretend that you are not planning to attack for the time being, they will definitely not attack you first. Instead, they will first do their best to fight the Russians."

"In this way, you will have the military strength of two worlds. It will be no problem to organize a legion of tens of millions of people."

"In this way, even if you don't borrow the troops of the Great Yan Kingdom, you can easily settle everything with the troops of the two Great Ming Worlds."

"And Mr. Gongsun just said that the border troops are actually loyal to the emperor."

He looked at Zhu Zhanjun: "If your strength is weak, those border troops may stop and wait for a while."

"But are you weak? You have two worlds to back you up, and tens of millions of soldiers willing to fight for you on the battlefield."

"Your factories produce large quantities of weapons, fighter planes, airships, tanks, and various types of artillery every day."

"The commanders of those border troops are not stupid. When they see that you, the emperor, suddenly have such a huge force, they will definitely turn to you."

“Not to mention taking all of them, even if only half of them remain, you will be an overwhelming force in any world.”

After saying this, Li Shimin concluded: "In the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy or trick is just a paper tiger."

"Clap clap clap..."

Old Zhu and others applauded vigorously. Zhu Houzhao said with emotion: "As expected of an emperor who rose to power through rebellion. His head is full of rebellious thoughts. Most people can't compare to him."

Li Shimin was annoyed and gave Zhu Houzhao a cold look, then looked at Zhu Zhanjun with a smile on his face.

"My dear, since I helped you solve such a big problem, can you give me a better price for those weapons?"

"Ahem..." Zhu Zhanjun, who was still thinking about Li Shimin's words, suddenly coughed dryly, raised his wine glass and said, "Come on, the food is cold, eat quickly."

"Yes, yes, yes, let's drink. Today's beef stew is delicious. People outside can't eat it. Old Cheng, hurry up and try it."

Zhu Houzhao, who was sitting next to Cheng Yaojin, enthusiastically invited Cheng Yaojin to try the beef.

Old Cheng laughed, said okay, picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

The lively atmosphere began again. Li Shimin sat down with a frown on his face. He drank wine and ate meat with big mouthfuls.

After eating and drinking, Empress Changsun stayed with her two children and, accompanied by Empress Ma, visited the scenery in this space.

Empress Changsun was born in the northwest and had never seen the sea. Today, she had the opportunity to see it and naturally did not want to miss it.

If she hadn't been accompanying Queen Ma and others to prepare dinner, she would have taken her two children to the beach.

Li Shimin had just become emperor and had many things to deal with outside, so he couldn't stay in the space for long.

After saying that he would go back and prepare money and take care of things if needed, he took Changsun Wuji and others back.

Li Jing did not leave. He was the commander of the main army corps responsible for the attack. The tactics might change in the future, so he naturally could not just leave like that.

After Li Shimin and others left, Zhu Zhanjun gathered everyone in a room, and Ji Gang unfolded a world map of the Great Yan Kingdom.

Zhu Zhanjun stood beside the map and said, "Now I understand what it means to be in a state of confusion."

He looked at everyone with a wry smile: "Due to the previous limitations of space, we were unable to send our troops to other worlds, causing us to ignore the overall strength."

"He's not called the Heavenly Khan for nothing. He discovered our problem after being here for only a short while."

Jia Xu shook his head: "It's not that we haven't thought about it, but we are thinking about how to let the soldiers reach other worlds without knowing the space, and how to explain it to them."

Zhu Zhanjun looked at him and asked, "Why do you need to explain?"

"Do the soldiers know who they are going to fight? In their minds, fighting the northern barbarians is the same as fighting the enemies of the Great Yan Kingdom. They will believe whatever our superiors preach."

"Also, didn't I tell you that to reach the world of the Great Yan Nation, soldiers from other worlds don't need to be teleported through space."

After this statement was made, everyone was stunned for a moment. Zhu Houzhao scratched his head and asked his father Zhu Youtang next to him, "Did he say that?"

Zhu Youtang thought for a long time, then said uncertainly, "It seems that he has never said that."

Seeing everyone's confused expressions, Zhu Zhanjun felt embarrassed.

He just thought about it and it seemed like he had never said it.

In fact, this is not Zhu Zhanjun’s fault. Everyone is used to teleporting through space and almost no one has ever used the space gate.

It's just like people. If they are used to going through the front door, they will feel a little uncomfortable if you ask them to go through the window.
