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

"Your Majesty, may you be well!"

In the banquet hall, everyone saluted Zhu Pangpang.

Zhu Pangpang, who was supported by his wife, walked in and raised his hand with a smile: "Everyone, please stand up. There are no outsiders. We are all family. There is no need to be so polite."

"Boss, you need to take good care of your body. If you continue like this, I estimate that in a few years, we will be back to attend your funeral again."

After standing up, Zhu Gaoxu walked forward and took over the work from his sister-in-law's hands, and helped Zhu Pangpang to the first seat, muttering something.

"Ah, you know my health condition. If it weren't for that brat who insisted on letting me sit in this seat, I would have given my seat to him and gone to go fishing with my dad every day."

Zhu Pangpang shook his head helplessly, and holding Zhu Gaosui with his other hand, walked towards the top three positions.

This was his special order. Tonight there would only be a family dinner. There would be no emperor or ministers, only brothers and relatives.

After the old man's funeral, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui were going to return to their fiefdoms.

Zhu Pangpang thought that the three brothers had been separated and might only meet again when he died next time, so he asked someone to organize a family dinner, intending to sit together and have a good meal and reminisce about the past.

"Our mother went there again."

After sitting down, Zhu Gaosui asked in a low voice.

Zhu Pangpang nodded.

Ever since the old man went to the space, Empress Xu has rarely been active in reality and spends most of her time in the space.

She had been notified of the family dinner tonight, but the old lady said that her teeth were not in good condition and she didn't want to go out, so she let them host it themselves.

"Why hasn't the brat come yet?"

After looking around, Zhu Gaoxu found that Zhu Zhanjun was not there, so he asked in confusion.

"It seems like there's something important over there. He went to deal with it first and will be here soon."

Zhu Pangpang replied again and ordered his personal eunuch to serve the dishes.

The cuisine is very rich, with almost everything from flying in the sky to running on the ground and the specialties of Western Europe.

The adults no longer had conflicts and the children were very happy.

Today we did not adopt the separate dining system but the self-service system. The food was placed on the large dining table. The little ones took the plates, took what they liked, and then sat at the nearby table, watching the new movie produced by Tiangongfang while chatting.

Seeing this joyful scene, Zhu Pangpang also showed a happy smile on his face.

He is kind and tolerant. He doesn't like family conflicts and sincerely hopes that everyone in the family can live in peace and happiness instead of fighting to the death for a position as before.

"Boss, tell us two brothers the truth. What exactly is that place? Besides our grandfather, grandmother, and uncle, are there any other people there?"

Seeing the little ones and the women sitting next to the big screen, watching the happy movie on it, Zhu Gaoxu picked up a large steak with chopsticks, and while chewing it, he asked the questions that had been weighing on his mind for a long time.

Zhu Pangpang shook his head: "Second brother, it's not that I don't tell you, but I can't say it."

"But I can say that it is a very good place. Our family will be together there in the future and will never be separated again."

"forever!"

Hearing this, Zhu Gaosui's eyes lit up: "Boss, you mean that I can live forever there."

Zhu Pangpang smiled and did not answer, but his meaning was self-evident.

The two brothers just looked at each other excitedly, confirming some guesses in their hearts.

Zhu Zhanjun did not come until the end of the banquet. It was not that he did not want to come, but what happened in the Dayan world left him no time to come back and attend the banquet.

During the days when the old man's funeral was being handled and the house was being cleaned up, the world of Dayan underwent earth-shaking changes.

Dasu and Little Moustache joined together and formally formed an offensive and defensive alliance. There was also a rumor that Queen Yeka was going to marry Little Moustache.

When the news spread, several giants became panicked.

In the past few years that Little Mustache has been supporting Da Yan, the military and industrial strength has increased rapidly. Although it is still far behind Da Yan, it is not much worse than the other giants.

Da Su is an old empire with a certain industrial base and a huge population. If the two sides combine, even Da Yan will have to take it seriously.

Just one hour before the banquet, Zhu Zhanjun received clear information that the two forces had officially reached an alliance and that the wedding would be held three days later. Invitations were also sent out, inviting representatives from various countries to attend.

In the conference room, Zhu Zhanjun held a cigarette in his hand and let it burn without taking a puff.

He doesn't smoke, but after getting the accurate information, he felt particularly solemn and asked Xiaohu to light a cigarette for him.

Zhu Zhanjun was not the only one. All the generals and officers in the conference room were smoking cigarettes and pipes, making the conference room full of mist, just like a fairyland. "Ladies and gentlemen, in my opinion, we should adjust our strategic goals. Instead of thinking about launching an attack on the west first, we should solve the trouble in the north first."

Li Jing stood up, holding a cigarette between his fingers and gesturing on the map: "Please see, everyone, the border between us and the Great Soviet Empire is very long. How can there be no neighbors without friction? From ancient times to the present, there have been countless conflicts between the two sides, and even large-scale wars have broken out."

"We are now in a honeymoon period due to our business relationship, but there are no permanent friends between countries."

"As for the mustache guy, our goals are the same as his, the Bald Eagle, the Sun Never Sets, and Gaul."

"But now that Gaul has been defeated, the British Empire is struggling to hold on. Although the Bald Eagle plans to send reinforcements, it will take some time for them to switch from peacetime to war."

"The mustache guy will not let go of this period of time. He will definitely kill the British Sun before the Bald Eagle reinforcements arrive."

"Yes." Peng Huai, who was sitting opposite him, continued Li Jing's words and said, "Dasu and Xiao Huzi had conflicts in the past. If the two sides had not formed an alliance, Xiao Huzi's personality would definitely deal with Western Europe and then turn to deal with Dasu."

"However, they have now formed an alliance and have become husband and wife. Even if there are conflicts, they will not erupt in a short period of time. Instead, they will first target other major forces, such as the British Eagle and us."

"So I guess that the plan of Little Moustache and Queen Yeka is to rely on our help to deal with Western European forces first, and then go back and deal with the West, and then gather all their strength to fight us."

“Although we are not afraid, this is disadvantageous to us.”

"In my opinion, we should agree to the alliance with Western Europe and other countries and kill these two guys first."

"With our military strength, we can completely crush the Soviet Union. The little mustache guy has the support of Western Europe. With the cooperation of both sides, we can deal with the two of them, and everything else will not be a problem."

"But we are just courting disaster. Little Mustache and Big Su are not good people. Bald Eagle and the Sun Never Sets are not good birds either."

As soon as Jiang Huai finished speaking, Zheng Zilong expressed his opposition.

He stood up and said to everyone, "Although Xiao Huzi and Dasu pose a certain threat to us, their industrial strength is not good enough. It is almost impossible for them to surpass us in a short period of time."

"But the Bald Eagle is different from the British Empire. They have a complete industrial system and can produce a large number of equipment and warships in a short period of time."

"We just destroyed a batch of their warships some time ago, but according to the news we received recently, they not only replenished these warships, but their performance even surpassed those old warships."

"According to our Navy Department, Bald Eagle has begun researching aircraft carriers and has achieved certain results. It will be put to sea for sea trials at the beginning or end of next year."

"Compared to Big Su and Little Moustache, I think the Bald Eagle and the Sun Never Sets are the biggest threats."

Each department has its own considerations.

The Army's first consideration was the casualties in future battles with the two major powers on land, the Navy considered the industrial strength of each force, and the Air Force sat on the side drinking tea and had no intention of interrupting the whole time.

It’s not that they have nothing to talk about, but that they don’t need to talk at all.

As for the army and navy, as long as the industrial strength reaches a certain level, the corresponding equipment can be manufactured.

But the air force is not the same. The technology required is not something that ordinary forces can master, and the training of pilots is the result of accumulation over time.

The Great Yan Kingdom's air force has accumulated strength over three worlds to reach its current size. It is simply impossible for other forces to surpass them in a short period of time.

As for aircraft, they use the most advanced ones. The laboratory has begun to study the next generation of jet fighters and it is said that certain results have been achieved. They will be put into military use within three years at the shortest and five years at the longest.

This is a crush of information and cognition, and industry only accounts for a small part of it.

Even if it is developed, without skilled pilots, we can only form a kamikaze special forces like the little pumpkins and die together with the enemy.

"Okay, everyone stop arguing."

Seeing several generals slamming the table and arguing because of different ideas, Zhang Baigui stood up and asked everyone to keep quiet.

As the first minister under Zhu Zhanjun, although Zhang Baigui never served as prime minister in any dynasty, his qualifications were there.

Moreover, any important meetings were presided over by him, which shows his status in Zhu Zhanjun's mind.

When all the generals sat back in their seats, some lit cigarettes and some drank tea, Zhang Baigui looked at Zhu Zhanjun who had been silent.

"Your Majesty, you have listened to everyone's ideas. I wonder what you think."

Everyone turned their eyes to Zhu Zhanjun.

No matter how fiercely they argued or how good their ideas were, it was useless if Zhu Zhanjun disagreed.

Pressing the unsmoked cigarette butt into the ashtray, Zhu Zhanjun said, "It's right to estimate the degree of danger, but we can't just focus on what's in front of us."

"The combination of Dasu and Xiao Huzi is indeed a threat in the short term, but in the long run, neither of them is a concern."

Looking at everyone, Zhu Zhanjun concluded: "My plan is to keep the general direction unchanged and make minor changes." (End of this chapter)
