Ming Dynasty: Pick up attributes from the battlefield to create the Ming Dynasty

When I looked at the enormous figure in the void.

Choros's face turned deathly pale.

"Release the arrows! Release the arrows quickly!"

Mahmud roared.

The Oirat soldiers surrounding the area immediately raised their bows and arrows, firing them at the enormous beast high above.

Countless arrows rained down on them.

only.

Faced with the almost inescapable rain of arrows, Zhu Ying only glanced at it before the pterosaur beneath his feet immediately took action.

Spread your wings with all your might.

A terrifying hurricane instantly spread outwards.

The rain of arrows that shot towards them had no chance to get close to the pterosaur before they fell down like rain.

Ordinary arrows are simply no match for this hurricane.

"The Great Khan of the Oirat Mongols".

"I have only one question."

"To lower or not to lower?"

As the pterosaur descended, Zhu Ying, empowered by his inner strength, looked down at Choros with a judgmental air and shouted.

With the support of internal energy, the sound spread out instantly.

Hear this.

Choros's face darkened as he stared intently at the figure atop the pterosaur.

“Zhu Ying,” Choros said through gritted teeth.

Zhu Ying stared coldly as countless arrows were fired in unison, but they couldn't get close to him at all as they were blown away by the hurricane-like force of the pterosaur's wings.

"I, the Khan, uphold the will of the Eternal Heaven and will not surrender even in the face of death."

"We, the Oirat, will never submit to your Ming Dynasty."

“We swear we will never surrender,” Choros replied coldly.

As soon as he finished speaking...

"We, the Oirat, swear to never surrender."

"We will fight to the death with your Ming Dynasty."

"We swear we will never surrender."

……

The surrounding Oirat generals roared wildly.

It has come to this point.

Perhaps they really did become a kind of moral principle.

"Since I'm going to die anyway."

"I will grant your wish."

Zhu Ying didn't waste any words.

The Frost Sword was drawn.

Red sword energy swirled around the blade.

Driven by the power of the demonic sword, the killing begins now.

"Charged Slash".

Zhu Ying felt a chill run down his spine.

The immense internal energy within the dantian was mobilized.

As if in perfect harmony with Zhu Ying, the pterosaur swooped down in an instant.

Zhu Ying then unleashed a swift sword strike.

A red sword light, several dozen feet long, instantly slashed down towards the Choros and Oirat armies below.

"What...what is this?"

Choros stared wide-eyed in terror at the red sword light slashing down from mid-air.

next moment.

There will be no more.

boom!
The sword light fell.

A terrifying sword aura was instantly unleashed, spreading outwards.

Hundreds or even thousands of Oirat soldiers were instantly annihilated and sent flying.

A sword mark, several dozen feet long, carved out a blood-soaked ravine.

The power of the demonic sword amplified the power of Zhu Ying's sword strike by more than ten times.

With nearly 30% of Zhu Yingdantian's internal energy added, one can imagine how terrifying this sword strike was.

now.

The panel kept beeping.

"Kill a Oirat soldier and collect 1 point of strength."

"Kill the Oirat soldiers and gain 5 days of lifespan."

"Kill the Oirat soldiers..."

The Oirat Khan Choros was also killed by this sword, leaving no trace of his body.

"Kill the Oirat Khan [Cholos] and collect 50 points of all attributes."

"Reward: One Tier 3 Treasure Chest"

"Killed the Oirat general..."

"Killed the Oirat commander..."

The notification sound kept coming.

Zhu Ying could clearly feel that all of his attributes were increasing rapidly.

This is what comes from killing the enemy.

The result of the "Slaying the One with Good Fortune" quest.

"Ming soldiers."

"I have already killed the Oirat Khan."

“Any Oirat soldier carrying weapons shall be executed.”

"Anyone who lays down their weapons and kneels to surrender will be spared death."

After defeating the Oirat Khan, Zhu Ying manipulated the pterosaur to fly into the sky, using his internal energy to amplify his voice.

And this moment.

There was nothing unexpected about it.

This greatly boosted the morale of the Ming army.

In addition to their own inherent combat strength, they also benefited from the increased combat power and morale brought by Zhu Ying's personal command of the troops.

The hundreds of thousands of Oirat troops now face the army of the Ming Dynasty.

Firearms that were ahead of their time.

An army of dinosaurs that would never have existed in the modern world.

Hundreds of thousands of cavalry.

Their fighting strength far surpassed that of the Oirat army.

There was absolutely no reason to lose. Not to mention the Oirat Mongols, even the Yuan Dynasty at its peak could not possibly be a match for the Ming army at this moment.

"Defeat the entire Oirat army."

"They marched straight in and stormed into the Oirat territory."

"Then came the Uriyangkhad."

High above, Zhu Ying surveyed the entire battle situation, already having made his plans.

……

Time flies!
Yingtian City.

Fengtian Temple.

"Urgent report from the Northern Prefecture."

"Let's start playing, Your Majesty."

"His Highness the Crown Prince personally led the Ming Dynasty's cavalry and the Divine Machine Battalion to a great victory over the Oirat army at the border between the northern prefecture and the Oirat region."

"One battle will surely destroy the Oirat."

“Behead the Oirat Khan Choros, and behead the Oirat Khan’s son Mahmud.”

"Almost all of the high-ranking generals of the Oirat were killed by His Highness the Crown Prince in this battle."

"In this battle, our Ming army killed over 100,000 enemy soldiers and won a great victory."

"now."

"Our Ming army has already invaded the Oirat territory and annexed the Oirat lands."

"Within half a year, the entire territory of the Oirat Mongols will be under the control of our Great Ming."

Minister of War Tang Duo stepped forward and reported with great excitement.

"well."

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed heartily, deeply moved.

Although he had no doubt about the outcome of the battle.

But upon hearing of such a victory, they were naturally extremely excited.

The Tatars are gone.

Once the Oirat and Uriyangkhai are dealt with, the entire northern grasslands will fall under the Ming Dynasty's territory.

The calamities of the northern frontier and the nomadic tribes, which no dynasty in Chinese history had ever been able to resolve, were finally settled by the Ming Dynasty, thus creating a truly great achievement for all time.

A monumental achievement that no emperor has ever accomplished.

"The Oirat army numbered 400,000, while our Great Ming Dynasty had only half the strength of the Oirat forces, yet we directly defeated them."

"Now that my grandson has reorganized the army, the fighting power of my Ming army is invincible," Zhu Yuanzhang said with great pride.

"The Grandson's divine might is unmatched under heaven."

The entire court of civil and military officials shouted in unison.

"We captured quite a few surrendered soldiers in this battle." "Your Highness."

"Make all prefectures and counties ready. These prisoners will be used as labor for our Great Ming Dynasty to reclaim wasteland, build railways, and construct roads."

"My Great Ming is currently short of manpower. These Oirats are courting death and have offended my Great Ming. All those soldiers shall be reduced to slaves and forced to work for my Great Ming for eternity," Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly.

"Please rest assured, Father."

"Your subject will personally oversee the process and have the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Works fully mobilize resources."

"Make sure all this manpower is fully utilized," Zhu Biao replied with a smile.

"Your Majesty."

"Now is a crucial moment for the development of our Great Ming Dynasty."

"We've also shown you the steam train that can travel a thousand miles a day."

"We've also shown you the steam textile machine and steam blower that can increase the efficiency of textile and iron smelting by more than ten times."

"You also know what these things can bring to our Great Ming in the future."

"We do not wish for anyone in the Ming Dynasty court, or even among the officials of the entire country, to hinder the development of our Great Ming," Zhu Yuanzhang said earnestly, yet with a hint of warning, as he surveyed the assembled officials in the hall.

Before Zhu Ying set off on his expedition.

In order to let the ministers know the power of technology, and to make them clearly understand what technological development brings.

Zhu Yuanzhang let them witness the invention of the steam engine firsthand.

There was also the emergence of steam-powered textile machines and other similar devices.

After seeing it.

The courtiers also learned what a train was and what a railway was.

"We, your humble servants, swear to serve the Ming Dynasty to the death," the entire court of civil and military officials declared in unison.

For them, they have already witnessed technology, and even more so, the mystical power of gods and immortals.

There are even longevity pills.

Furthermore, there is the path to immortality that Zhu Ying himself spoke of, the path to becoming an immortal or god in the future.

Every official was filled with fighting spirit, and their efficiency in handling government affairs was unprecedented.

For them.

This moment is also about striving for a better future. Perhaps we can't achieve it ourselves, but we can strive for it for our descendants.

"We've already told them everything we needed to."

"Anyway."

"Just do it with all your might."

"We and the Crown Prince have personally planned four railways connecting the north and south of the country. As the Crown Prince has decided, each prefecture is responsible for a section and must give us their full support in supervising the construction."

"We're short of people, so the local government is recruiting for us."

“Local government troops can be mobilized for assistance.”

"In short, we need to get the railway built as soon as possible."

"We need to coordinate with each department. We don't want to be delayed by any trivial matters," Zhu Yuanzhang said in a deep voice.

"We understand." The ministers nodded in agreement.

"And one more thing."

"In the twenty-fourth year of Hongwu, Xiong Ying had already traveled north to Beiping Prefecture."

"His trip to Beiping was not without purpose; it was to build a new capital."

"Now that our northern territory has expanded to such an extent, we won't hide it from you anymore."

"future."

"Beiping will become the new capital of my Great Ming Dynasty."

"So much time has passed, and the new capital is almost finished. We will find a suitable time to move the capital," Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly said.

Hear this.

This was no secret to the six ministers and the Grand Secretaries of the Hall of Literary Brilliance.

But for most of the court officials, it was clearly a major event.

Although there have been constant rumors about moving the capital, nothing has been confirmed.

Today, Zhu Yuanzhang spoke up.

That settled everything.

but.

The ministers were not too flustered. The transformation and reform of the Ming Dynasty was too intense. Zhu Yuanzhang and his two grandsons had already set the tone. On major issues, the ministers only had the right to make suggestions and had no power to object. All they could do was to cooperate fully.

This is imperial power.

and.

Because of Zhu Ying's appearance, the military and political affairs of the Badao Bureau were overthrown.

This also directly revealed the trump cards of the [Immortals and Gods].

This also made it clear to the officials that if they could not keep up with the process of the Ming Dynasty's transformation, they would really be abandoned.

"All right."

"Today's court meeting is adjourned here."

"The hunting party has caught some more dragon meat. Today's great victory in the northern frontier is something to celebrate."

"Convey our will."

"All officials of the seventh rank and above shall be granted ten catties of dragon meat," Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.

Hear this.

The officials were all beaming with joy.

Dragon meat.

They've all tasted it a few times already.

From initial surprise to the subsequent increase in physical strength and even power after consuming dragon meat, they realized that dragon meat was truly a valuable food, even more nourishing than tiger meat.

"Your Majesty, we thank you for your great kindness."

The officials, regaining their senses, all expressed their gratitude.

"No need for thanks."

"In the words of our grandson, as long as you do your best to serve the court and have less selfishness, not only will you be given dragon meat, but whatever good things the Ming Dynasty will have in the future will also be bestowed upon you."

"Don't limit your vision to gold and silver. The fact that you can stand in this hall already gives you more foresight than anyone else in the world," Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.

Regarding this statement.

The courtiers naturally agreed.

That is indeed the case.

……

Time flies!
The land of the Oirat Mongols in northern Xinjiang.

The location of its royal court.

A large number of Oirat nobles knelt before Zhu Ying, utterly humble, to show their submission.

For these people.

Zhu Ying naturally adopted the same approach as the Tatars, using the Heart-Eating Gu to control and utilize them to control the Oirat.

Once the territory is fully under control and the people's hearts are won over, these people will become useless and will gradually step down in the future.

Use barbarians to control barbarians.

This is the fundamental national policy of the Ming Dynasty towards foreign countries.

"Your Highness."

"Dealing with the Oirats this time was much simpler than dealing with the Tatars; it didn't take much effort at all."

"Where my army goes, all surrender at the mere sight of it."

"It seems that this time the Oirat Khan has truly drained the Oirat forces dry."

Lan Yu stood in front of Zhu Ying and said with excitement.

Even if it's him.

After becoming a duke, he never imagined that he would be able to accomplish such an extraordinary feat.

The previous annihilation of the Tatars was only the first step.

In just the second year, they actually destroyed the Oirat Mongols.

"Anyway."

Those who surrender should be appeased.

"Those who refuse to surrender will be killed, and those who surrender will also be taken by me and reduced to slavery," Zhu Ying said in a deep voice.

"I have already given the instructions."

"only."

“It is very troublesome to govern in this way. If our Great Ming expands to a certain place in the future and governs it in this way, it seems to be somewhat delayed. Moreover, it will consume national strength to appease them, and we even have to treat these people with favors.”

"You know, the Yuan Dynasty used every means to treat us Han people. Our Great Ming Dynasty has been too lenient with them," Chang Mao said with a touch of emotion.

Listen to this.

Zhu Ying also looked thoughtful.

“In the future, the defense of these outposts around our Great Ming will continue, and they will be fully incorporated into national policy.”

“But in the future, when there are foreign lands and ethnic groups outside the Ming Dynasty that look different from our Ming, then we will implement colonial control.” Zhu Ying slowly spoke.

This time.

Chang Mao did indeed enlighten Zhu Ying.

If a conquered country is used to govern that country, then it is truly unworthy of being called a powerful nation that has attacked another.

in this era.

There were no "great powers," only one great power, and that was the Ming Dynasty.

"May I ask Your Highness, what is colonial control?" Xu Huizu asked, puzzled.

"Simply put, it's about using barbarians to control barbarians."

“Our Great Ming directly supports foreign tribes and lets them control that territory for our Great Ming. However, the taxes and resources within that territory will fall into the hands of our Great Ming.”

"In this way, our Great Ming will not need to waste too much manpower and national strength on governance," Zhu Ying said slowly.

Upon hearing this, Xu Huizu pondered for a moment and immediately showed admiration: "Your Highness is wise. If our Great Ming were to implement this colonial method in the future, it would greatly save manpower and national strength, and even accelerate the expansion of our territory. It would truly be a win-win situation."
