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

Chapter 485 Time Flies! The Ming Dynasty Gets Stronger Year by Year!

In the time that followed, Zhu Ying explained the development plan of the Ming Empire for the next ten years to the civil and military officials.

At the same time, some new personnel appointments were also made.

In conclusion, the Ming Empire was about to enter a period of rapid development.

At the end of the court session.

Zhu Yong addressed the civil and military officials in the hall in a solemn tone: "The next few years will be extremely important for the development of the Ming Empire."

"Although the Ming Empire has unified the world, we still need to prioritize the development of the Ming homeland, namely the Central Plains."

"You all need to keep this in mind."

"Concentrate all the resources of the world on developing the Central Plains, first greatly improving the lives of the people and society in the Central Plains, and then developing other regions."

This was Zhu Ying's final national policy.

Although people of other ethnicities were also considered citizens of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Ying still emphasized prioritizing the Han people and concentrating the resources of the entire nation to promote the rapid development of the Central Plains.

"Did you all hear me clearly?"

Zhu Ying called out to the civil and military officials inside the Fengtian Hall.

Instantly.

All the officials immediately responded, "Your humble servants obey!"

then.

Zhu Ying glanced at Emperor Chongzhen, Zhu Youjian, once more.

"Zhu Youjian, what is the current state of the Ming Dynasty in the world of the late Ming Dynasty?"

The next second, Zhu Youjian immediately replied, "Reporting to Your Highness, everything is proceeding in an orderly manner according to the national policies formulated by Your Highness."

"Currently, the people of the Ming Dynasty are all well-fed, and the fiefdoms of the imperial relatives have also been distributed to the common people..."

Zhu Youjian gave Zhu Ying a very detailed report on the situation of the Ming Dynasty in the world at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

After listening, Zhu Ying nodded slightly and said, "Yes, in the coming period, we should also follow the established national policy. In addition, we can also expand to the surrounding areas."

"In short, it is of paramount importance to ensure that the Han people live a good life!"

After Zhu Yinggang finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang, sitting on his high seat, also instructed Zhu Youjian: "Xiong Ying is right! No matter what world you are in, the lives of the Han people in the Central Plains must be improved!"

"The world of the Ming Dynasty was like this, and so was the world of the Five Barbarian Tribes at the end of the Jin Dynasty!"

"Of course, the same applies to our world!"

"Everything must prioritize the Han people!"

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Ying shared the same idea: to prioritize the Han people.

After that, Zhu Ying turned his attention to several military officers.

Zhu Ying was very clear about this.

Fifty years from now, when the civilization of the Great Ming world is exposed to the world's interstellar civilizations, it will surely provoke an attack from other interstellar civilizations.

At that time, military strength will be the key!
Therefore, what Zhu Ying needed to do was to improve the military strength of the Ming Empire as quickly as possible within these fifty years.

Although, from the current perspective, the military strength of the Ming Empire is already among the top in the world!

Furthermore, no other country can compare.

The Ming Empire might even be able to take on the entire world single-handedly, but compared to some powerful interstellar civilizations, the Ming Empire's strength is still quite weak at present.

and so!
The military strength of the Ming Empire also needed to be rapidly improved within these fifty years.

"Guo Zhen".

Zhu Ying was the first to call out the name of Guo Zhen, the commander of the Imperial Guards.

"Your subordinate is here!" Guo Zhen immediately stepped forward from among the officials.

"Although the world has now been unified, the Royal Guard still needs to continuously capture dinosaurs from the [prehistoric world]."

"The current dinosaur army is far from being large enough!"

"We must add more dinosaurs!"

"This matter is still under your responsibility. You must spare no effort to increase the number and combat effectiveness of the dinosaur army!"

As soon as Zhu Ying finished speaking, the commander of the Imperial Guard of the Ming Dynasty did not hesitate at all. He immediately replied, "This subordinate obeys!"

"Please rest assured, Your Highness! This humble general will do his utmost to capture dinosaurs and enhance the fighting power of the dinosaur army!"

Zhu Ying nodded, and then he looked at the military generals such as Mu Ying and Lan Yu.

"In addition to improving the strength of the dinosaur legion, the combat power of the cavalry battalion, infantry battalion, divine machine battalion, mountain battalion, and even the navy must also be improved."

"I have a few martial arts manuals here. I will pass them on to you, and then you generals will pass them on to the ordinary soldiers!"

"Never become complacent just because the world is at peace!"

"I can tell you definitively that it won't be long before the Ming Empire launches another war against foreign powers!"

To be honest, when these generals heard what Zhu Ying said, they all showed excitement on their faces.

Military commanders actually wanted to wage war.

Only in the event of war can they establish military merit, and only by establishing military merit can they obtain the Longevity Fruit and increase their lifespan.

"Your subordinate obeys!"

Lan Yu, Mu Ying, Feng Sheng, and others immediately accepted the order.

At last.

Zhu Ying then addressed the civil and military officials in the Fengtian Hall, saying, "In the coming years, the Ming Empire must achieve rapid development in military, technology, and people's livelihood."

"If development meets expectations, then rewards will naturally follow."

Upon hearing about the reward, the civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty naturally perked up.

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang also spoke up: "Xiong Ying has already made things very clear to you, so we won't waste any more words here. We just want to tell you one thing."

"As long as you remain loyal to us, loyal to the Ming Empire, and achieve the goals of our national policy, we will certainly not treat you unfairly!"

"In the future, the Ming Empire will become even stronger, and all those who contribute to the development of the Ming Empire will receive substantial rewards."

"So let's all go all out and get things done!"

Instantly.

All the civil and military officials responded in unison, "Your Majesty, we obey! We will certainly do our utmost to contribute to the development of the Ming Dynasty!"

……

After the court meeting concluded, all the civil and military officials withdrew.

And in this great hall.

Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao, and Zhu Ying were filled with emotion.

Especially Zhu Yuanzhang.

He could personally feel that the Ming Empire had undergone earth-shattering changes in just a few years.

"Xiongying, tell me, what stage will our Ming Dynasty be at in fifty years?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked Zhu Ying with a curious expression.

just.

Zhu Ying was not a prophet, so naturally he could not predict the future.

However, Zhu Ying still had genuine confidence in the Ming Dynasty.

"Old man, don't worry. Fifty years from now, the Ming Empire will definitely be better and better."

"As long as we unite, no civilization can defeat the Ming Dynasty!" Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao were naturally quite moved after hearing Zhu Ying's words.

"U.A., we believe in you!"

"The reason why the Ming Dynasty was able to achieve the unification of the world is all thanks to you."

"Therefore, we also believe that in the future, our Great Ming Dynasty will not only be able to unify the world, but also conquer the entire universe!"

……

In the following period, the Ming Empire began to develop with all its might in accordance with the national policies formulated by Zhu Ying.

The entire imperial court was like a large machine.

Every official was doing their utmost in their respective positions, contributing to the construction of the Ming Dynasty.

In the blink of an eye, a year has passed.

Within that year, the Ming Empire had indeed undergone a great transformation.

Currently.

In the Central Plains region of the Ming Dynasty.

The development has been remarkably rapid. Looking around, almost every state capital has built a train station, and some states have more than one.

This has greatly facilitated people's travel.

At the same time, it also increased the prosperity of commerce.

At the same time, workshops sprang up everywhere, especially around the capital, with workshops of all sizes located in the suburbs!

These factories included textile mills, iron smelters, and so on.

It's worth mentioning that all of these factories have achieved steam power!
Every factory has many steam engines, which greatly increases efficiency and reduces manual labor.

Of course, this wasn't limited to the capital; workshops were scattered throughout the entire Central Plains region.

With these workshops, people had more jobs, and the prices of daily necessities were reduced, which truly benefited the lives of the Han people in the Central Plains.

After just one year of development, the Han people in the Central Plains have accumulated a great deal of wealth.

Savings at the Imperial Bank of the Ming Dynasty have also seen a significant increase!
of course.

With the popularization of steam engines, Ming Dynasty merchant ships gradually began to use them as well.

It should be noted that before this year, steam engines were mainly used on warships for military operations. Now, not only are the warships of the Ming Dynasty's navy steamships, but even ordinary merchant ships have been converted into steamships.

This also allowed merchant ships to travel farther than before, and their speed was also significantly improved.

People's lives are getting better every day!
At the same time, people are becoming increasingly wealthy.

Not only did the Central Plains of the Ming Empire undergo earth-shattering changes, but so did other regions, even though Zhu Ying's national policy prioritized the Han people!

While prioritizing the development of the Central Plains region, Zhu Ying did not forget to develop other areas.

However, in terms of speed and progress, the development of other regions lagged far behind that of the Central Plains.

In the North Continent.

Because most of the land consists of grasslands, deserts, and snow-covered areas, building railways in these places is extremely difficult. Nevertheless, the Ming Dynasty still managed to build railways in this northern continent.

However, compared to the Central Plains, the number of railways in this northern continent is much smaller.

Nevertheless, the people of the Northern Continent were quite excited, as the railway made it much easier for them to travel to the Central Plains.

That's right.

Since the Ming Dynasty unified China, people from other regions have regarded the Central Plains as a sacred land, and many foreigners have hoped to settle there.

After all, the Central Plains was the most developed and fastest-growing region in the entire Ming Empire.

It also offers a large number of job opportunities.

All foreign peoples yearn to live in the Central Plains.

Also.

The development here in Xizhou is also quite good.

The Western Continent was mainly composed of countries such as England and France, which already possessed excellent technology. With the support of the Ming Empire, they naturally developed even faster.

Now, after a year of development, many factories have been built in this western continent, and there is also a railway!
even.

Many ports were also built in the Western Continent!
Especially after the widespread use of steamships, the connection between the Western Regions and the Central Plains became closer. Before the widespread use of steamships, the Western Regions and the Central Plains mostly relied on railways for communication.

However, the speed of railways is relatively slow.

After all, the distance between the Western Continent and the Central Plains was too long, but now, with the widespread use of steamships, merchants from the Western Continent and the Central Plains could frequently communicate.

This also led to the rapid development of the Western Continent!
……

the second year.

The Ming Empire experienced another epic leap forward, with a significant increase in the number of railways in regions beyond the Central Plains, including the Northern, Southern, and Eastern Continents.

Simultaneously.

The number of workshops in these areas is also gradually increasing.

Most importantly, these regions have gradually been Sinicized.

In the past two years, Chinese culture has spread throughout the world. Looking around, people in almost every part of the world have begun to learn Chinese.

Some young people are already fluent in Mandarin!
Moreover, some people from foreign lands and ethnic groups participated in the imperial examinations, and some of them have already taken up minor official positions in the court.

It can be said that the whole world is gradually becoming one.

What pleased Zhu Ying the most was that no rebellion broke out anywhere during these two years. Clearly, the people of different ethnicities had also adapted to being ruled by the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Ying once ordered the Ministry of Revenue to conduct a public opinion poll throughout the entire Ming Empire.

Most people believed that their quality of life had significantly improved after being ruled by the Ming Empire, which was the main reason why no rebellion occurred.

Looking at the world as a whole.

Whether in the North Continent, the South Continent, or the East and West Continents, the people live in peace and prosperity.

Everything is thriving!

But despite this.

The Ming Empire dared not relax its vigilance in the slightest. In all regions except the Central Plains, there were governors-general stationed and troops stationed there!

Zhu Ying understood.

In addition to ensuring these foreign people live a good life, we must also carry out military suppression!

Only by taking a two-pronged approach can we achieve long-term stability and security!
And within this imperial capital.

Zhu Ying was not idle during this period either.

He had been observing the fortunes of the Ming Empire.

As the Ming Dynasty's colonial rule became increasingly stable, the people lived in peace and prosperity, and no rebellions occurred. This led to the Ming Dynasty's fortunes gradually strengthening, even reaching their peak!
As the Ming Dynasty's fortunes reached their limit, it also meant that even if these foreign tribes wanted to rebel, they couldn't stir up any trouble.

Also.

Not only did the Ming Empire in the main world develop rapidly, but the Central Plains in the [Late Jin Dynasty and Five Barbarian Tribes] world and the Ming Dynasty in the [Late Ming Dynasty] world also underwent earth-shattering changes in the past two years.

In particular, the Ming Dynasty in the "Late Ming World" has now conquered the area outside the Great Wall and annexed the countries in the southeast!

Their strength is gradually approaching that of the Ming Dynasty in the main world!
