Daming: Spoilers about the future, Zhu Yuanzhang collapsed

Chapter 173 Zhu Yuanzhang is worried that there is too little land outside?Han Cheng took out the globe with his backhand! !
Zhu Yuanzhang fell into deep distress.

I thought the method of the fourth child was very good, and I could use it myself.

In the end, who would have thought that such a big pit would be contained in this seemingly good method!
A big pit enough to make Da Ming bleed all the time.

Why is it so difficult to solve the vassal system perfectly?

Could it be that he is really going to take action and directly abolish the vassal system?
But if he did this, how unfair would it be to his other sons?

The throne was given to the eldest son's line, and the rest of the people have no chance of the throne. It would be really unfair if their thrones were revoked...

Moreover, even if the vassal system is really abolished, there are still a series of troubles waiting.

With so many descendants of the Zhu family, they should be resettled.

Originally, Zhu Yuanzhang was still happy that he had many sons and that he had opened up branches and leaves for the Zhu family.

But thinking about these things now, Zhu Yuanzhang raised the trouble of having too many sons for the first time...

"Han Cheng, you come from later generations and know a lot. Do you have any good ways to solve this problem?"

After Zhu Yuanzhang was distressed, he finally looked at Han Cheng and asked for help.

Having experienced many things, when Zhu Yuanzhang asked Han Cheng for help again, he no longer felt embarrassed, and he was not afraid of damaging his tall and mighty image.

What Han Cheng was waiting for was Zhu Yuanzhang's words!
If you want Daming to expand its territory abroad, it is impossible to rely solely on foreign trade, and it cannot take root.

To promote the development of this matter, the vassal prince Zhu Yuanzhang is troubled by at this time is the biggest weapon!

"Your Majesty, I do have some ideas here."

Upon hearing Han Cheng's words, both Zhu Yuanzhang, who was extremely distressed, and Zhu Biao, who had also not come out of the shock brought by the series of figures calculated by Han Cheng, immediately turned their attention to Han Cheng.

Waiting for Han Cheng's next words.

For fear of missing a word.

Ever since Han Cheng learned about a series of things in the future, the vassal system has been lingering in the hearts of the two of them.

They all want to find a suitable way to solve this matter properly.

But relying on themselves, they really can't think of any good way to do it.

"Your Majesty's vassal system is actually correct, especially when the Ming Dynasty was founded, it played an extremely positive role.

As for later, there will be many troubles. It is not the vassal system that is wrong, but the use of the vassal system in the wrong place. "

After Han Cheng organized his language, he spoke.

Han Cheng's words immediately made Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao stunned.

Ever since Zhu Yuanzhang started working on the vassal system, people have been saying that the vassal system is not good, and that is not good.

Especially the news from Han Cheng confirmed that the vassal system is really not working.

Why now, in Han Cheng's mouth, it has become a vassal system, right?
This statement is new.

"What does it mean to use the vassal system in the wrong place? Then where should the vassal system be used?"

Before Zhu Biao could ask, Zhu Yuanzhang spoke first.

Han Chengdao: "Your Majesty sealed many vassal kings into the territory of Daming.

In the long run, there will be more and more descendants of the clan, and more and more vassal kings, and troubles will inevitably arise.

But what if His Majesty entrusts these vassals to places other than Daming?

Since then, wouldn't the pressure that originally belonged to Daming disappear?

Not only are they gone, but these feudal lords can continue to expand the territory for the Ming Dynasty!
Let the territory of Ming Dynasty continue to expand!

Summarize more places into my Chinese civilization. "

Entrusted outside of Daming?
After Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao heard Han Cheng's words, they were stunned for a moment, and then they felt their eyes brightened, as if the sharp sunlight had pierced the dark clouds all over the sky!
Yup!

You can entrust the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty to the outside world!
If they are entrusted to the outside world, let them go out to plan food by themselves and make a career out of it.

Isn't this much better than keeping them in Daming territory, being on guard everywhere, and worrying about them causing trouble all the time?
A talented and ambitious vassal king no longer needs to be suppressed because of his status, so he will feel aggrieved and will eventually do something.

The Ming Dynasty itself was able to get rid of such a heavy ambition of the clan in one fell swoop.

There is no need to worry about the clan anymore, it will become a huge burden on Da Ming and drag Da Ming down abruptly.

The vassal kings are all sealed off, and they are not in the territory of Ming Dynasty. First, there are few opportunities to meet each other. Second, each has its own room for development, and the conflict of interests is not serious.

Under such circumstances, it is also possible to avoid to the greatest extent that one's own children and grandchildren will fight each other because of the conflict of interests and power, and the occurrence of cannibalism.

it is good!it is good!
Really good! !
What a vassal king!
What a Han Cheng!
As expected of a person from the afterlife!

He is worthy of being his good son-in-law!
In a few words, I directly solved the big problem that I was troubled by, felt extremely difficult, and helpless!
This really deserves to be the good son-in-law bestowed on him by God!
Zhu Yuanzhang's mood was agitated, and his eyes were about to burst into glory.

The whole person was extremely excited.

When I think of Han Cheng again, I don't think that Han Cheng's nose is not a nose, and his eyes are not eyes.

From a bastard who forced him to make a marriage contract with his own daughter, he became a good son-in-law bestowed on him by heaven.

This change is not ordinary!
Zhu Biao also had brilliant eyes, and his mood seemed agitated.

What Han Cheng said, the extremely brief words, to Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, was tantamount to opening the door to a new world.

The two of them immediately saw a world that they had never thought of before, and saw a new direction.

Needless to say, Han Chengduo, the two of them have thought of the many benefits of doing so!

The two of them didn't speak for a while, they were both thinking about various things.

Han Cheng didn't make a sound to disturb, just stood here quietly, waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao to "enlighten the Tao".

Han Cheng was very satisfied with the reaction of the two of them, and was not surprised at all.

After all, Han Cheng clearly knew that Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao would definitely feel uncomfortable after learning about the vassal system from him and all the things that would happen in the future.

According to Zhu Yuanzhang's temperament of always wanting to do things perfectly and leave a super good system to future generations, he will definitely think hard and want to fill in the pit of the vassal system.

If he had talked about the feudal prince's outer seal from the beginning, Zhu Yuanzhang would most likely not agree.

But now, when he talked about the proposal of the vassal king's outer seal, Lao Zhu absolutely had no reason to refuse!
Let Lao Zhu, the founding emperor, make the external feudal lordship of the Ming Dynasty into an ancestral system, and establish this system at the national level.

So for Daming, there are many benefits, and for Huaxia, the same is true!

The combination of such a system, great voyages, and corresponding technological progress will surely push Chinese civilization to a new peak!
After these are determined, even without Han Cheng pushing too much behind, the wheel of history will roll forward by itself!
The side hall of the Shouning Palace, where squares are drawn and rice is placed in the squares, looks ordinary.

But something extraordinary is being bred here.

In the future, the whole world will inevitably change for it!
After a while like this, the mood of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao gradually calmed down.

After taking a few deep breaths, Zhu Biao looked at Han Cheng and said, "Han Cheng, the method you gave is really good, but... there are many problems in it.

Most of the outside world is a barren land, I'm afraid many feudal lords don't want to go out..."

Before Zhu Biao finished speaking, before Han Cheng could speak, Zhu Yuanzhang's voice rang out.

"Don't want to go out? Dislike the land outside Daming for being too wild? They can't let them do this!

Lao Tzu counts!
When they were entrusted to the outside world, we provided them with the three guards and other supports. How bad could the conditions be?
Is there the difficult conditions they encountered at the beginning?
We can go from a beggar to this position step by step. They have our support, so why can't they go out and make some business?

Our son should pursue the strong master Shengzu, instead of being a moth waiting to die in the mountains and rivers that his father and grandfather brought down!
Our family name is Zhu, not pig!Future generations cannot be raised as pigs!

We also do not allow future generations to become pigs! "

Zhu Yuanzhang's words are sonorous and powerful, and no one can refute them.

He really couldn't think of a way to properly solve the clan's problem before, so he thought of adopting Zhu Di's method in desperation.

But at this time, after learning from Han Cheng that the vassal king's outer seal was such a magical method, Zhu Yuanzhang changed instantly.

I don't want to use Zhu Di's method anymore.

Compared with Han Cheng's idea of ​​enfeoffing the vassals, the methods adopted by the fourth child are really far behind.

The two cannot be compared at all!

Therefore, after knowing this method, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately decided that it must be implemented.

Don't allow your own descendants to be raised as pigs!

He hopes that his descendants will be successful.

If one can come out that surpasses him, Zhu Yuanzhang feels that even if he is under Jiuquan, he can still grin.

Originally, Han Cheng was going to say something to Zhu Biao and explain it.

But at this time, after hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Han Cheng swallowed all the words that were about to come out.

With Emperor Hongwu, there is absolutely no need for me to waste any more words at this time.

Sure enough, Zhu Biao couldn't finish the remaining words.

After a pause, Zhu Biao said again: "This matter is somewhat unexpected and contrary to the convention. I'm afraid that many people will object..."

"Against?" Zhu Yuanzhang smiled.

"Let's see who dares to object! Whoever objects will be cut off!

Let's see if their mouths are tough, or our knives are tough! "

Zhu Yuanzhang was already extremely decisive at this time, and became a staunch supporter of the vassal king's outer seal.

Han Cheng's method really touched his heart.

Han Cheng listened to Lao Zhu's words on the side, and couldn't help stretching out his hands to give Zhu Yuanzhang a thumbs up.

As expected of Lao Zhu!As expected of Emperor Hongwu!

This courage, this demeanor is not covered!
"Your Majesty, Prince, this matter seems a little out of line, but in fact it is not out of line at all.

There's evidence for this stuff. "

Han Cheng said out loud.

Prepare to completely eliminate the last worry in Zhu Biao's heart.

Is there evidence to follow?Why don't they know!
Both Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao set their sights on Han Cheng.

Han Chengdao: “The origin of the enfeoffment system is very early.

Some people say that it started from the Yao and Shun period.

In my opinion, the enfeoffment system is a very good system.

On the one hand, it conformed to the production level at that time; on the other hand, it was an excellent process of territorial expansion.

My Chinese civilization existed in a very small area at the beginning, and through repeated enfeoffments and wars, China's territory was continuously expanded.

Especially after the establishment of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the super-large-scale enfeoffment implemented was of far-reaching significance.

Originally, many places did not belong to Zhou, but it was through this enfeoffment that the spread and development of Chinese civilization was accelerated, and the territory belonging to China was further expanded.

Later, after the seven kingdoms struggled for hegemony, Qin finally unified the six kingdoms. In order to unify the power, the first emperor abolished the enfeoffment, adopted the system of prefectures and counties, and established a unified dynasty.

This is indeed an extremely great decision.

Because since the first emperor did this, he has set a goal for all future emperors.

This goal is six kings complete, four seas one!

Those who are on the throne will involuntarily regard the unification of the world as a big goal to complete.

This makes the land of China, even if it has experienced wars and chaos, will eventually come together.

Make Huaxia more brilliant.

Xiang Yu came to divide the world, which led to the struggle between Chu and Han.

After the founding of the country, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty adopted the system of prefectures and counties while enfeoffing them.

Then the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms broke out again.

In the Jin Dynasty, there was the Rebellion of the Eight Kings.

Therefore, the later dynasties gradually learned to be smart, and began to confer kings only by names, not actual titles.

When it comes to His Majesty, His Majesty is also a large-scale distribution of princes, and Jing Nan appears later...

Judging from this series of things, this enfeoffment system should indeed be swept into the garbage dump.

Because it has seriously failed to meet the current production level, it will only hinder social progress and cause a series of turmoil.

But...is that really the case?
What I think is wrong.

Because of the people behind.Many times when the enfeoffment system was used, the essence of the enfeoffment system was not used at all.

The enfeoffment system does not mean enfeoffing the places that you have already controlled.

Instead, he entrusted the places outside his control to the princes and kings.

Let the princes and kings take some soldiers and horse servants to go to the desolate places and conquer the world bit by bit.

And the places that these princes and kings conquered and built belonged to Zhou Tianzi in name!

Those people who came later, when they made enfeoffments, they all enfeoffed on the land they had already mastered.

This runs counter to the trend of great unification, and will naturally cause a lot of trouble, which seems out of place.

It is the most correct way for His Majesty to entrust the vassal kings outside.

It is also the essence of the enfeoffment system.

It cooperates with the existing system of Ming Dynasty and complements each other..."

Can the enfeoffment system be understood in this way?use like this? !

In the side hall, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao felt very novel after hearing Han Cheng's words.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not go to school at the beginning, but after gaining some status later on, under the suggestion of Empress Ma, he seized the time and supplemented his knowledge like a hunger and thirst.

Until now, it has never been broken.

Han Cheng felt that when looking at a person's knowledge, he should not just look at whether he has been to school at the beginning, but to look at it from the perspective of development.

After all, a person's life is very long, and the second half of his life cannot be ignored just because of the first half of his life.

Otherwise, Zhu Yuanzhang's best identity now is a beggar, a monk, not Emperor Hongwu.

Even now, when Zhu Yuanzhang is practicing boxing or eating, he still likes to let learned people tell him about history.

So Zhu Yuanzhang is no stranger to the enfeoffment system and related matters.

Not to mention Zhu Biao, who received orthodox education since he was a child, and has a better understanding of the enfeoffment system in the Western Zhou Dynasty.

But it was precisely because of their understanding that they felt refreshed when they heard Han Cheng's words at this time.

This is a direction that they have never known before, or that others have never told them, and they have never thought about it.

Hearing Han Cheng's words abruptly, people felt that something was wrong, but after careful consideration, they felt reasonable.

"That's what it is!!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with a look of surprise on his face, and immediately took note of what Han Cheng said.

I decided that I was going to act like this in the future, and if someone spoke out and said that it was not in line with the etiquette, I would use this set of rhetoric to silence the other party.

Then kill it.

This is more enjoyable!

"Let's just talk about it! Why are the Son of Heaven and Zhou Gong and others so stupid this time, all the good land was given away.

It turned out that many of the places assigned to those people were still very desolate, belonging to Zhou in name, but not actually.

That's it!

We misunderstood! "

When Zhu Biao heard Han Cheng's words, he also found the best reason to hate those opponents, and also secretly wrote down Han Cheng's words.

"Let's entrust the third and fourth sons to the north, and give them fiefdoms in the land that still belongs to the Yuan Tartars!

The places that have been taken down belong to Daming in name, but in fact they can exercise the authority of the emperor in it! "

Zhu Yuanzhang made such a decision by patting his thigh and learning what he had learned.

I still feel a little proud.

Since your fourth child can fight, let's force you to fight north.

In this way, not only will there be no border troubles in the north of Daming, but it will also make Daming's sphere of influence bigger!

Good son-in-law Han Cheng, this idea is good!

In an instant, the stone that was pressing on Zhu Yuanzhang's heart disappeared!

As a result, Han Cheng waved his hands again and again: "Your Majesty, don't be like this, don't be like this Your Majesty, this is really not good, you can't seal like this.

If they were divided up like this, they would only cheat King Jin and King Yan in the end, and even if they couldn't cheat them, they would also cheat their descendants, as well as the future Ming Dynasty! "

After hearing Han Cheng's words, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help being taken aback.

Isn't that what you said you were going to divide?Why do we say that we will divide the seals at this time, and you say such things again?
"Han Cheng, what do you mean by this? Do you think that if the third and fourth are sealed over there, they will not be the opponents of the remnants of the Tartars? Will they be plunged into death?"

Han Cheng waved his hand: "That's not the case.

If His Majesty is really willing to divide the land of the two of them, according to the abilities of King Jin and King Yan, it is really possible to establish a world there. "

"Then...you mean that from now on, the third and fourth will turn around and come back to attack Daming?"

After Zhu Yuanzhang hesitated for a while, he looked at Han Cheng and asked.

Han Cheng nodded: "Exactly."

"They dare!" Zhu Yuanzhang widened his eyes and raised his voice.

"God against them! Dare to come back and attack Daming! See if we don't beat them to death!"

Zhu Biao on the side also said: "Han Cheng, this kind of thing shouldn't happen, right? The third and fourth, how could they forget their roots like this."

Han Chengdao: "Your Majesty, elder brother, this is not the case.

At that time, I'm afraid it doesn't mean that they don't want to. "

"Why? Will someone force them to do this?"

Han Cheng nodded: "Indeed."

Zhu Yuanzhang was taken aback for a moment: "The third and fourth will not be such waste, they will let the people under their command force them to do things."

Han Cheng shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, what I'm talking about is not King Jin and King Yan, or their descendants who will not be able to hold power, and will be pushed aside by their subordinates and forced to attack Daming."

It's not like this?

Is that so?

Both Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao were confused by what Han Cheng said.

Some didn't understand what Han Cheng was talking about.

Han Cheng thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, brother, you also know history very well, and you also know about nomads, and the fight between us, right?"

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao both nodded.

Almost from the beginning of historical records, this kind of struggle has never stopped.

In the pre-Qin period, there were dogs and soldiers, and in the Qin Dynasty, there were Xiongnu. In order to resist the Xiongnu, the first emperor sent Meng Tian to build the Great Wall in the north, but the Huns were more than [-] miles away, so that the Hu people did not dare to go south to herd horses.

After the establishment of the Great Han, he also had to face the threat of Hu people, and Liu Bang was trapped in Baideng Mountain.

Later, after Emperor Wu of the Han came to power, he began to smash the Huns.

Kou can go, so can I!

Heroes such as Great Sima, General Wei Qing, and Champion Hou Huo Qubing emerged!
It made the Xiongnu mourn and destroy my Qilian Mountains, make my six animals invincible, lose my Yanzhi Mountain, and make my women colorless.

Make the strongest voice that whoever offends my strong man will be punished even if he is far away.

Completely established the status of a Han as a Wuhu!
Until the Eastern Han Dynasty, those princes, big and small, could still rub the barbarians on the ground.

The Sima clan, Wuhuluanhua, there were Turks in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

During the Song Dynasty, there were Liao, Jin and Yuan...

For a long time, the struggle between the Han people and the Hu people has never stopped.

"Does Your Majesty know why the Hu people often go south to attack us?"

"These barbarians don't accept Wang Hua! They are all barbaric and ruthless, always trying to rob us!
Our Huaxia has a vast land and rich resources, and there are many good things! "

Zhu Yuanzhang spoke first.

Han Cheng nodded.

Zhu Biao said: "Those people are savage by nature, and it's cold in the north. They were hit by a disaster and couldn't survive, so they came to us to grab food."

Han Cheng nodded again.

Next, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao each gave a lot of reasons, and Han Chengcheng said that they were right.

When the two of them really couldn't think of any reason, Han Chengdao: "What the father and elder brother said are all right, but they didn't tell the fundamental reason."

Didn't say the root cause?
The two of them have already said so much, it can be said that they have racked their brains and searched their stomachs, but in the end they haven't revealed the real reason yet?
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao looked at each other, both looking a little confused.

"Then... what is the root cause?"

Zhu Biao looked at Han Cheng and asked.

Han Chengdao: "Brother, ask someone to bring you a map of Daming. Once I tell you, you will understand."

Zhu Biao immediately walked out of the side hall, and went to ask someone to fetch the map.

While waiting for someone to send the map, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao were still thinking about the root cause of what Han Cheng said.

Thinking that his head was about to split open, he tried to give several reasons, but it was still what Han Cheng said.

This made Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao seem a little distressed.

But at the same time, he became more curious about the root cause that Han Cheng said.

I desperately want to know what is the root cause of what Han Cheng said.

And Han Cheng, in this free time, repacked the rice placed in the grid drawn on the ground before.
Try not to waste a grain.

After washing these rice, you can continue to eat.

In fact, the rice in this era is different from that of later generations, who eat polished rice, which is very clean.

Even if the rice of this era is eaten by the royal family, it is inevitable that there will be some pebbles and the like.

When eating, it needs to be washed well.

After Han Cheng packed all the rice, the map was also sent over.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao personally unfolded it and spread it on the table.

Then his eyes fell on Han Cheng, waiting for Han Cheng to answer the riddle for them.

After looking at the map for a while, Han Cheng picked up the charcoal and drew an arc-shaped line from northeast to southwest on it.

The reason why charcoal is used instead of quill is that after the charcoal is drawn, it will not affect the continued use of the map.

The line drawn by Han Cheng is the [-] mm iso-precipitation line of our country.

This is something that high school geography must learn.

This line roughly passes through the Greater Khingan Mountains - Zhangjiakou - Lanzhou - Lhasa - east of the Himalayas.

"See that line?
This line is called the [-] mm isoprecipitation line in our later generations, and this is the root cause of the Hu-Han dispute. "

After Han Cheng finished the painting, he looked at it carefully for a while, and after confirming that his painting was not bad, he began to explain to Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, who had been waiting for him for a long time.

Four hundred what precipitation line?
What is this?
Why did this thing become the root cause of the dispute between Hu and Han?
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao stared with big eyes.

Han Chengdao: "Our place faces the Pacific Ocean in the east, and some places in the south receive water vapor from the Indian Ocean.

Generally, the closer to the southeast, the more rain.

Some can trap water vapor near mountains, where precipitation is greater.

The [-] mm isoprecipitation line, that is to say, in the north of this line, the annual precipitation is less than [-] mm.

This line belongs to the dividing line between the semi-arid zone and the sub-humid zone.

It is also the dividing line between forest and grassland, and also the dividing line between agricultural areas and nomadic areas.

Because there is not much precipitation in the north, it is not suitable for planting, but more suitable for grazing.

For agricultural areas, nomadic areas are more vulnerable to drought and the impact of cold winter.

The ability to resist disasters is even worse.

Once there is a disaster, especially a catastrophe, the nomads in the north, driven by their survival instinct, will move south to invade and rob us.

This is the general environment, which cannot be changed by people.

Your Majesty, in the future, you really entrust King Jin and King Yan there. Affected by this aspect, they can only live a nomadic life.

In the future, there will be a catastrophe, no matter how reluctant they are, and no matter how strongly they oppose it, it will be useless.

The subjects in the kingdom they established will never listen to them when the time comes.

It must be going south to find a way out.

This line is the root cause of the dispute between Hu and Han, and it will not be shifted by human will. "

After hearing Han Cheng's words, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao became enlightened.

I think Han Cheng is right.

This is the truth.

People are going to be unable to survive, then they will definitely rebel, and they will definitely go south.

At that time, even if the third and fourth were unwilling, it would be impossible.

While Zhu Biao was stunned, he also felt that he should write down what Han Cheng said.

Zhu Biao felt that this was a very rare knowledge, involving many things.

If you can understand more, you can let yourself and others see the world better and get better things.

In the future, when I have time, maybe I can ask Han Cheng for advice on this aspect.

Han Cheng can always solve problems from novel angles that he and others never thought of.

The key is to have a reason.

"So, if this line goes north, there must be no fiefdom.

The many lands in the north must be firmly held in the hands of the imperial court, otherwise, future generations will definitely be deceived in the future! "

Zhu Yuanzhang kept it firmly in mind.

Then, he looked at Han Chengdao with some worry: "There are so many places in the north that can't be crowned kings, so is the rest enough for the Daming vassals to be crowned?"

Han Cheng smiled when he heard this, he thought he should take out the globe!
