Reborn Ming Dynasty as Emperor

Chapter 431 Prepare to deal with Jiannu
The occupation of Java was regarded as the prelude to the official expansion of the Ming Empire, and the behavior of the Ming army in Java also played a deterrent effect on the rulers of other Nanyang countries and the Westerners who were colonized by the West. , That is to say, from now on, if they want to continue to treat the Han people in their country brutally or unfairly, then they will have to consider the feelings of the Ming Empire, or they will start to worry about whether the Ming Empire will launch a war against them because of this.

Years later, for the Ming Empire, which urgently needs to expand its overseas interests, it is more and more wishing that the rulers of these areas adopt barbaric or unfair policies towards overseas Han people, so that the Ming Empire can find it easier to find and compete for their own interests. Even later, even though the rulers of these areas no longer dared to treat the Han people differently, the Ming Empire would deliberately instigate the Han people in its own country to provoke disputes with the indigenous people in order to achieve the purpose of expanding its empire.

Gradually, the Ming Empire will change from a just man who waged wars to protect the lives, property, and dignity of his compatriots into a political hooligan who waged wars by all despicable means in order to fight for interests, but the relationship between countries There is no morality in the game. In this world of the law of the jungle, civilization and humanitarianism are only the norms that countries with equal strength can advocate for each other. If Ming does not expand at this time, then in a few hundred years, Ming will become an expanded one. Object.

If overseas expansion and primitive accumulation of capital are not stepped up at this time, no one can guarantee that there will be another century-old catastrophe, and they will only wake up after the Western colonists break through the country, and then a large group of Western colonists will appear kneeling and licking. The people who are proud of this, and even justify the name of these invaders, thank them for pulling China out of the backward political system?
This is not the result Zhu Youxiao wants. Although he doesn't like Li Mingrui, a revolutionary leader who loves to play tricks, he still chooses to support these capitalists in the new era to expand their appetite unscrupulously. What's more, he Still the biggest capitalist here.

In Zhu Youxiao's view, maybe a hundred years later, the Ming Empire will decline due to changes in the current situation like the British Empire on which the sun never sets in later generations, but that decline does not mean that the Ming Empire will become completely cowardly, because early on The accumulation of wealth over the years has kept the national wealth at a relatively high level. Even if it is no longer the most powerful existence in the world, its influence is still there, and the Ming Empire can also be like this. The world dominates, but he still has to consider the feelings of the Ming Empire.

After occupying Java, Zhu Youxiao did not immediately start negotiating with the red ghosts occupying the western part of Java to achieve the goal of occupying the entire territory of Java. At this time, he did not want to directly declare war with these Western colonists. After all, the current Ming Dynasty The strength of the navy is not enough to challenge all the western colonists, not to mention that although the Zheng Zhilong pirates have been wiped out, there are other pirate forces on the sea, and the remnants of the Zheng's pirate group hiding in the Japanese sea at the moment must be completely eliminated, so as not to At that time, tigers were infested, which made Zheng Zhilong make a comeback.

Zhu Youxiao decided to temporarily stop overseas expansion before his own military power further strengthened. During this period, he must completely eliminate the Jiannu in the north and the Mongolian Lindan Khan, as well as the Raksha Kingdom, which has increasingly obvious war intentions. It must also be dealt a heavy blow, and it is best to force it to stop its expansion into Northeast Asia. Even if these local forces are to be resolved, Zhu Youxiao now feels that his Ming's military strength is still a bit stretched.

To this end, it is necessary to further increase and expand the army and increase military expenditures.

At this time, among the six departments, the Ministry of War has become the most important department, and its expenditure has almost exceeded that of the Ministry of Households. In many cases, in order to facilitate direct military expenditures, Zhu Youxiao specially decreed that the income tax on salt, iron and royal capital should be temporarily reduced. The Ministry of War directly transfers it to the Royal Bank, and saves the accounting of the Ministry of Accounts to avoid excessive intermediate procedures and reduce efficiency.

Because there is no plan to start a war in Nanyang, and the occupied areas of Java will only be colonized and plundered for raw materials in the future, so Zhu Youxiao decided to send the powerful Fourth Army of the Imperial Guard Transferred back to the Yunnan-Guizhou area in China to continue to recruit and expand, and transferred Sun Chengzong and his Cao Wenzhao Department to Java for construction. It was done very well, and Cao Wenzhao not only fought well, but also had an outstanding performance in farming. It would not be a problem for him to deal with the remnants of the indigenous forces in Java.

It is not worth worrying about whether Western colonists or other maritime forces will take advantage of the Ming Empire's busy war against the north to seize the Ming Dynasty's ownership of Java. After all, even Cao Wenzhao and other troops Unable to cope, there is still the Nanyang Fleet that can check and balance these Western colonists, and Zhu Youxiao also ordered Heiwa's first brigade to change its station to Java, so as to be on guard against possible provocations by Western colonists at any time.

After Sun Chengzong and Cao Wenzhao arrived in Java, how did they colonize Java, how did they promote Han culture and establish the Ming administrative system and education system? In addition, when did royal capital such as the Royal Industrial Company and the Royal Weaving Bureau go to Java to expand their business? Waiting is something later.

But now, His Majesty Zhu Youxiao, who is at the helm of the Ming Empire, is about to start preparing for the final blow to Jiannu.

According to the latest information provided by Jin Yiwei, at this time Jiannu has gradually regained its momentum. Huang Taiji has further consolidated his imperial power by annexing several Eight Banners owners, and this Huang Taiji seems to have further clarified the current situation , actually began to send people to contact the Raksha Kingdom, and it seemed that this posture not only wanted the Mongol Lindan Khan to unite against Ming Dynasty, but also attracted the great enemy of the Raksha Kingdom.

This forced Zhu Youxiao to start his plan to completely wipe out Jiannu ahead of schedule. He didn't want to wait until the Raksha Kingdom fought against Daming and divide his troops to deal with this still-little Jiannu.

Although there is already a big gap between Jiannu and Daming in terms of comprehensive strength today, Jiannu is the existence that has been the biggest threat to Daming from the end of Wanli to the reign of Tianqi after all, so even at this time, when you mention When the final battle against Jiannu was about to take place, both the emperor Zhu Youxiao and the civil and military officials couldn't help feeling a little nervous and excited.

However, before officially declaring war on Jiannu, Zhu Youxiao suddenly got the news that Jiannu Huang Taiji was going to pay tribute. Zhu Youxiao was not worried about whether the Jiannu Huang Taiji sent people to pay tribute this time, whether he really wanted to surrender to Daming or to find out the truth. With Daming's current strength, perhaps it would be more disturbing for the Jiannu to probe the truth.
