Back to Ming Dynasty as Zhu Biao

Chapter 18 Preparations for Enthronement
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, south of the Yangtze River.

On the river, the bow of the ship is next to the stern, and the sails are blowing in the wind. On the shore, there are soldiers standing every few steps, and 20 sailors are densely packed on the river.

Thousands of warships, hundreds of huge ships like the Black Iron Tower, those warships that belonged to Chen Youliang were also collected by Zhu Yuanzhang under his command.

All the mixed river dragons, river sea turtles, blocked rivers, knocked down mountains, etc. are all neatly arranged on the water today.

At the beginning of June in the fifteenth year from Yuan to Zhengzheng (AD 1355), Zhu Yuanzhang led Xu Da, Feng Guoyong, Shao Rong, Tang He, Li Shanchang, Chang Yuchun, Deng Yu, Geng Junyong, Mao Guang, Liao Yongan, etc. People, bet on all their family fortunes, and began to fight across the river.

The navy of the Ming Dynasty not only experienced the battle of crossing the river and the water battle of Poyang Lake, but also the battle of Liuluo Bay with the Dutch navy in 1633. It is the overlord of the world's navy.

Zhu Biao stayed up all night and arranged for the fourth day of the Lunar New Year.

"Zheng Sanbao, do you like sailors?"

"Master Huishi, I like it."

Zhu Biao nodded in satisfaction.

"This Chaohu Navy is the representative team of our Daming Navy."

The Chaohu water army mentioned by Zheng Sanbao was jointly founded by Yu Tingyu, his father and son and the Liao brothers.

Zhu Yuanzhang accidentally discovered the power of this water army, and was very greedy. At that time, Chen Youliang and Zhang Shicheng also wanted the Chaohu water army to be used by them.

The three parties competed, but Yu Tingyu and his son took a fancy to Zhu Yuanzhang and came to him willingly to work for Zhu Yuanzhang.

According to Zhu Yuanzhang, who planned to attack Nanjing at that time, the Yangtze River was the biggest difficulty to face, and Yu Tingyu and his son were the timely rain at that time.

That is to say, by virtue of this navy, it won the control of the southern area and established the embryonic form of the Ming Dynasty.

After experiencing the water war, they were raised in a lake, where there were fish and shrimps. The soldiers could catch fish by the lake, and it was a natural food supply base.

All the soldiers gathered together silently, like a tightly connected solid circle.With their heads held high, facing Zhu Biao, who came to see them in person on the second day of the Lunar New Year, they all shouted:

"See Shizi."

The voice of Liao Yongzhong alone is like a drum hammer, and the voice of thousands of people in the navy is like a bell, resounding across the Yangtze River north and south.

Zhu Biao stood on the high wooden platform, looked up into the distance, and the boats filled the river. These are the foundations of future voyages.

With the formation of the navy, Liao Yongzhong told Zhu Biao that there would be no problem with the day of enthronement.

The Daming Navy could have developed and controlled hegemony, but when Zheng He sailed to the West, the purpose was to promote the country's prestige, which had limitations.

On the Zhongshan East Campus, among the [-] soldiers and horses, there are infantry and cavalry.

Listed as five squares.

Pikemen, Crossbowmen, Swordsmen, Blasters and Artillery.

Meng Yuan's iron cavalry is invincible, and Zhu Biao thinks that the cavalry must be taken seriously, and the spear army specializes in conquering cavalry.

Zhu Yuanzhang raised troops in the south, where there are many rivers and few horses. Most of these horses are the horses of the Yuan court in the Luzhou racecourse.

Just wait for Xu Da and the others to conquer Dadu, Zhu Biao will start to ask Zhu Yuanzhang for orders.Re-train the army by yourself and create the most perfect weapons for these soldiers.

These are all things to say, and now it is time to prepare for the enthronement ceremony, and then quickly restore people's livelihood, restore national strength, and mine gold and silver mines.

With silver, one can develop, with silver, one can train soldiers, and with soldiers, one can carry out drastic reforms.

If we don't follow the path of the late Ming Dynasty, we must reform everything from now on. Zhu Biao decided to hurry up while many things are just in their infancy.

The formation of the army has almost been rehearsed, and Zhu Biao looked at some precautions for enthronement.

When Zhu Biao returned to the palace, Mrs. Ma was busy trying on clothes and hats for Lao Zhu.The maids delivered everything needed in an orderly manner.

After reading the enthronement note sent by the Ministry of Rites, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Song Lian and Liu Bowen next to him:
"The Fengtian Palace ceremony is over, we are going to the Zijin Mountain to announce to the world." Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the two of them.

The little old man Song Lian shook his head and said what he wanted to say, but was interrupted by Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Let's have the final say, the rules are made by people, go, prepare a set for Biuer according to our clothes."

"My lord, this... the son of the world has his own robes, you..." Song Lian finally couldn't help it, and brought up the old saying again.

Liu Bowen glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang, as if he understood something, and did not refute.

According to the patriarchal rules, the emperor has a dragon robe for the emperor's grand ceremony, and the prince has his own clothes, which cannot be surpassed. Now the superior is handed over to the son of the world, the meaning is very clear.

The holy will is the will of God, who dares to defy it.

It's rare for Mrs. Ma not to stop him. Throughout the ages, this man in his family is still the first person to do this.

But knowing that he is afraid of melting his son if he holds it in his mouth, and afraid of falling when holding it in his hand, with such love, he naturally understands his approach.

Turning around, he told Yu Yi who was next to him: "Yu Yi, prepare according to Chong Ba's instructions."

"Yes, ma'am." Yu Yi obeyed and ordered people to prepare immediately.

……

In the courtyard, Jin'er held the dragon robe that Zheng Sanbao was holding and said, "It's really a beautiful dragon robe, you must look good in it, sir."

On Yu'er's handsome and delicate face, the curved eyelashes moved slightly, and she took the dragon robe in Jin'er's hand reproachfully and said: "Jin'er, our master's clothes can't be moved at will, let alone it is a sacred object, if it is damaged, you will be blamed." There is no escape."

Jin'er pouted, and said helplessly, "Okay, Shi Zi, put it on quickly and have a look."

Zhu Biao didn't move his clothes.

Before, he had some concerns and pestering towards Lao Zhu, after all, he didn't know what he was thinking about Zhu Biao.

So since time travelling, he has been doing some boring things, but now that he saw this outfit, he was sure of it.

Zhu Yuanzhang is completely Zhu Biao's princeling. If he wants the throne, he will give it 100%.

After all, Lao Zhu is a peasant at heart, and his family business is not just for his son.

Looking at the dragon robe, Zhu Biao is no stranger to it.

Yes, he was almost tired of wearing the dragon robe of Emperor Chongzhen, so he wasn't too shocked to see this dragon robe.

Coming to this early Ming Dynasty and knowing the ending of the late Ming and Qing Dynasties, he couldn't regard himself as a spectator.

He has been a Han Chinese for three lifetimes, and he has a deep memory of every tragic page in history.

He can't do anything about the past history.

But now, in the early Ming Dynasty, none of that happened, and the current Daming just started to build.

Lao Zhu gave him a share of his dragon robe without any grievances, and fate arranged for him to walk in front of the Ming Empire.

You should do your best, shouldn't you?

The final decline of the Ming and Qing dynasties was due to the conservatism of traditional thinking, and even the blind arrogance of the rulers, who closed the country.

The other corners of the world are vigorously developing the Industrial Revolution, when the capital.We are out of touch with the world and stuck in our ways.

If we start from changing thinking, liberating productive forces, and developing various technologies, the entire ruling class will inevitably be affected, creating a butterfly effect.

Who are you?He is half the ruler of Ming Dynasty. If he uses his knowledge to influence Lao Zhu and make him look wider and farther, the ending will change.

In the rule of the monarchy, a thought and choice of him and Lao Zhu can have an immeasurable effect on the development of Ming Dynasty.

In the first few months since he came here, Zhu Biao felt that it was because he felt that the old Zhu was in power in this life, and he could not change, so he was lukewarm.

But now, with the exact same dragon robe delivered to him, he shouldn't hesitate.

Thinking of this, he said to Three Treasures:

"Come on, help me try this dress to see if it fits."

Sanbao and Jin'er nodded with joy.
