The Great Industrial Ming Dynasty Started from Beiping

Chapter 493 Zhu Di’s Journey

"In October of the 31st year of Hongwu, Gui Lichi acted like a villain and poisoned Anke Timur, the king of Hami who was granted the title of Ming Dynasty. He invaded Hami with [-] cavalry and massacred eighteen cities."

"I, the Ming Dynasty, strictly ordered Guilichi to leave Hami and bring peace to Hami. Guilichi did not realize the majesty of the kingdom of heaven and blocked the carriage with his arms, rejecting the goodwill of my Ming Dynasty."

"In August of the 32nd year of Hongwu, I, His Highness the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty, will go on a personal expedition to punish the people and punish their crimes. I will definitely eliminate the ghosts and bring peace to the world."

……

With the headlines in various newspapers, it caused a sensation in society.

Only then did the people know what happened in Hami. It turned out that someone was bullying them.

After the newspaper, there are also thought-provoking articles.

"Viewing the Core of Chinese Civilization."

"There are three kinds of thoughts in the world. One is that human life is given by God, and the meaning of human life lies in obeying the will of God."

"The second is Tianzhu's thought. Life is reincarnation, created by God. After one life ends, there will be another new life. Therefore, people value the fate of the next life. This life is to prepare for the next life."

"The third type is my Confucianism and Taoism."

"Life is formed naturally, not created by God. 'When heaven and earth combine, all things come into being, just like when a couple combines together, a son comes into being.'"

“So life is not independent, but interrelated and continuous.”

"Individual life is just one part of the entire society. As long as individual life is alive, it must die, and the overall life of mankind will continue through the next generation."

"As the saying goes, the body is the remains of the parents. The body of the child is the continuation of the parents' body, that is, the continuation of the parents' life."

"A house that accumulates good deeds will surely be blessed; a house that accumulates bad deeds will have lingering disasters; and those who have gone before will plant trees so that those who come after will enjoy the shade."

"It is the foundation of the great existence of our Chinese civilization. Creating a better living environment for future generations is the mission and responsibility of the current generation, just like the previous generation paid for us."

"While enjoying the life left to us by the previous generation, we have the obligation to fight for the next generation. This is family bond."

"Today the prince went out to fight against rebellion, suppressed rebellion, and was accompanied by fifty thousand healthy men. This is in line with family ethics and moral principles, and he should be respected by future generations for generations to come."

The articles written by Liu Tong, a writer from Peking, resounded throughout the country.

Everyone praises.

"Such a good article should come to light."

Zhu Yuanzhang almost broke the precepts.

The doctor in Jinzhou told him that he could no longer drink. He had been abstaining from alcohol for three years. After reading the article in the newspaper, Zhu Yuanzhang was so excited that he wanted to drink.

Zhu Gaochi immediately stopped him.

Old people who have been drinking all year round cannot stop drinking immediately, and old people who have not drank all year round should not drink too much at once.

As soon as Zhu Di left Yingtian Mansion, something went wrong with Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang had strong self-control and quickly gave up the idea of ​​drinking. He couldn't put it down while reading the newspaper in his hand.

Zhu Gaochi also liked this article.

I remember that in later generations, some foreigners lamented that the Chinese were always well protected by the bravest among them.

In fact, this is true from a macro perspective.

2000 years ago, our ancestors were thinking about how to put a bridle on the ruler's head to restrain the boundless power.

Relying on war will not work.

Because the new victor will also become a dragon.

Therefore, moral standards were born, and even the monarch's words and deeds were bound by etiquette.

It is no longer the original period when the king could do as he pleased.

Just like some people in later generations praised how Western imperial power was restrained to prove the progress of society, but China's imperial power has always been restrained.

Another example is freedom.

Many uneducated people like to understand the meaning through words.

Just like Zhu Yuanzhang said that Yuan Yiyi would lose the world.

There was actually an article written, and Zhu Yuanzhang himself said that the Yuan Dynasty lost the world because of its generosity.

It can be said to be the most ridiculous thing in the world.

same.

In small places in China, people who choose to lie flat will only be criticized by others. Even so, they can't stand it and think that foreign countries are lax.

What they don't know is that small places abroad are stricter, and it's not just lip service.

If the flowers and plants in front of your door are not properly maintained and beautiful, your neighbors in a small foreign country will call the police.

There are so many restrictions, and even renting a house requires a lot of requirements.

Freedom has never meant doing whatever you want, doing whatever you want. Living in today's society, having rights must also come with obligations.

Zhu Gaochi also looked at the newspaper in his hand, and what was written on it was very clear.

Enjoying the environment provided by society, then maintaining the environment is an inevitable obligation.

"This great sage named Liu Tong is not an ordinary Confucian scholar." Zhu Yuanzhang recognized the other party's ideas very much.

Zhu Gaochi said with a smile: "The people who planted trees to enjoy the shade of the previous generation have the obligation to continue planting trees for the next generation, instead of just caring about their own enjoyment and ignoring the life and death of the next generation."

This concept is a traditional social theory. Zhu Yuanzhang is said to be a small farmer, so he naturally supports it more.

"Correct."

"The legacy established by Lao Tzu will certainly be carried forward by future generations."

Zhu Gaochi understood what Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking.

Just like the prosperity of Chinese civilization, a large number of ancient people lived in the words that later generations read.

This is the eternity of life.

Then use a selfish, or mysterious and mysterious way of saying it.

The society that allows you to live comfortably requires generations to maintain its existence, but you only care about your own enjoyment and ignore its life and death, so why should it allow you to continue to be comfortable.

You put it in danger of losing its continuation, why can't it give you the cruelest revenge?

As the saying goes, the laws of heaven are clear, and the retribution is not good.

Powerful force requires a matching spiritual civilization in order to be truly powerful and glorious, rather than blindly destroying.

As later generations of scholars commented.

The nomadic conquest of Central Asia caused serious harm to Central Asia and benefited Europe a lot. It can even be said that it promoted Europe's move towards the foundation of modernization.

What Zhu Gaochi needs is not temporary pleasure, but a foundation for eternity. Naturally, what he considers is the construction of civilization, not the destruction of civilization.

Otherwise, with today's military force, he only needs to support the army to fight all the way outward.

But in the process of fighting outwards, how to build Ming Dynasty and carry forward Chinese civilization is the undefeated path.at this time.

Armies one after another, receiving orders from the Ministry of War, used the railway system to go to Jiayuguan, maybe two or three days, or three or five days.

Unlike the previous one in Peiping, the targets of this transfer were all over the Ming Dynasty.

In the end, up to [-] cavalry arrived at Jiayuguan, followed by [-] infantry, plus nearly [-] military households.

In Jiayuguan, mountains of supplies were piled up.

Beans, rice and wheat, flint and gunpowder, lead cannonballs, ropes and sacks, hundreds of kinds of materials are stored in various warehouses.

Zhu Di arrived in Ganzhou by train.

Zhu Neng and a group of generals were already waiting at the Ganzhou Railway Station.

"His Royal Highness is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old."

When Zhu Di appeared at the door of the carriage, his old subordinates shouted excitedly.

He used to be the king of Yan, now he is the prince, and in the future he will be the emperor of Ming Dynasty.

The bonus of his status made Zhu Di's aura more domineering, and people were so excited that they wanted to stand in front of Zhu Di and pledge their allegiance to him.

Zhu Di had a smile on his face.

I have been in the capital for three years. If I don't leave the capital, I will forget how to fight and the glory of the iron horse.

"Here we come."

Zhu Di said softly: "Stop all dissatisfaction."

No one thought the prince was arrogant with such arrogant words. On the contrary, people were even more inspired. What they needed was such a general.

"Da Ming will win!"

"Da Ming will win!"

"Da Ming will win!"

Ganzhou platform.

Thousands of soldiers raised their arms and shouted loudly, their voices shaking the sky.

It has been nearly a year since Guilichi invaded Hami.

During this year, the Anding Guards had been captured by Gui Lichi, and the remaining forces shrank to the Qaidam Desert, surviving with difficulty only by the occasional support from Jiayuguan.

Before map.

The generals had a fierce dispute. Some people said that they would march straight in, capture Hami directly, capture Guilichi, and decide the outcome in one battle.

At last.

People looked at Zhu Di, waiting for the prince's decision.

Zhu Di stroked his chin.

Didn't keep people waiting too long.

"Push it over."

"Push it over?"

Everyone showed silly smiles.

An army of [-] cavalry and infantry marched along Hami's railway line, leading [-] military households, while repairing the railway.

The foundation of the railway is well built, and it is easier to repair than to build.

Not hurriedly.

The first to recover gelding city.

This is also a place for mutual trading. The horses traded to Daming are all geldings. This is why Daming doesn't care much about the horse market.

It’s not like there were no places to raise horses in the Ming Dynasty, there was no shortage of horses.

From Yangma City to Gudunzi, and then all the way to Guazhou.

Guazhou's ghostly red army appeared.

The Ming army was not surprised.

The two armies fought in Guazhou.

First, the Ming Dynasty's cavalry charged towards the opponent like three walls. Wearing cavalry armor, they first threw grenades, and then fired three blazing guns when they got closer.

The same tactics as Lao San, there is no change.

But there is no solution.

Under the shining light of the fire, the opponent's thousands of cavalry were unable to fight back in a head-on battle.

Under the bombardment of hand grenades and the intensive short-range lead bullet strikes of the three-eyed firecrackers, casualties were everywhere, and they were immediately defeated.

This battle also destroyed Guilichi's power south of Hami.

Zhu Di did not change his pace because of the victory. Just as he said, the entire Ming army was marching according to his rhythm.

Guazhou was recovered.

Dunhuang was recovered.

The forces that were huddled in the Qaidam Desert came to Dunhuang to meet Zhu Di, and soon after, the coalition troops set off to Hami.

The second war took place in Hami.

Belongs to siege warfare.

Still the third child.

After the artillery bombarded the infantry, the infantry continued to bombard the artillery.

Kehami in one day.

Pictured here is Guilichi emerging from the city gate of Hami. He was besieged by the Ming cavalry regiments who had been waiting for a long time, and was finally trapped and killed in an unknown place fifty miles north of Hami.

It only took 22 days from leaving Jiayuguan to regaining Hami and destroying the ghost Lichi.

The whole Hami was shocked.

The news reached Yili, and the frightened Erhuozhe and others quickly sent envoys to Hami to congratulate the Ming Dynasty on its victory.

Zhu Di looked to the west of Hami.

"Should we continue to fight?" Zhu Di was a little embarrassed.

The son didn't let him hit too far.
