Chapter 216: Don’t Look at Me!!!

In today’s court, the quarrel is particularly fierce, especially when the topic is transferred to Qinzhou, and the officials who hold different opinions are full of gunpowder.

Zhu Yuanzhang had already decided to cancel the Qinzhou government’s decree on issuing weapons to the people, and at the same time, strictly restrain the merchants in Qinzhou, and impose heavy penalties on merchants who violated the rules.

By this time, the discussion about Qin Zhou was nearing the end, and once Zhu Yuanzhang made up his mind and wanted to change, it would not be so easy.

One owl after another, it is also very helpless, obviously, today Prince Zhu Biao came prepared, just to go down to His Royal Highness King Qi.

The most direct fuse was the envoy sent by Prince Zhu Biao to Jinshan Mansion, and in just a few months, he was deposed from his official position by His Royal Highness King Qi and returned to the Ming court.

Prince Zhu Biao was naturally extremely unhappy in his heart, and his face could not be hung up.

Therefore, taking the opportunity of this official returning to the imperial court to restore his life, he launched an impeachment of Qinzhou affairs.

And at this time, there was a messenger outside the Fengtian Hall to report, and good news came from Qinzhou Mansion.

Hearing the shouts outside, the civil and military officials in the court, including Zhu Yuanzhang on the dragon chair, were all surprised!

The messenger had not yet run to the Mukden Hall, and the voice had already come in from afar.

Above the hall, there was a bang.

“Did I hear you right, Qinzhou Mansion?”

“What’s the situation? Is there a war in Qinzhou Mansion? ”

“When??”

The courtiers in the court were talking, and Prince Zhu Biao and Taishi Li Shanchang looked at each other.

Between Qin Zhou and the Daming court, after all, there is such a long distance, the transmission of news is extremely unsmooth, on his side, there is no news of Qinzhou’s attack at all, but over there, the news of Dajie has already come back.

Zhu Yuanzhang stood up from the dragon chair even more excitedly, the current situation in Beiyuan is already a certainty, it is only a matter of time.

And the rest is the problem of the expansion of Qinzhou, who is not hungry for a large territory, how much territory can be seized, which means how much territory the Ming Dynasty will expand, this achievement, will surpass the emperors of the previous dynasties 973 dynasties.

It is even possible to help Zhu Yuanzhang achieve the first emperor of the ages!

However, there was actually a war on Qinzhou’s side!

Here in his own court, I have not received any news.

As soon as the messenger ran to the Fengtian Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn’t wait to ask, “There is a war over there in Qinzhou?” Who is attacking Qinzhou? ”

The messenger didn’t even breathe, so he threw himself on his knees and began to report the news from Qin Zhou.

All the civil and military officials closed their mouths and listened to the messenger one by one.

The messenger also spoke extremely quickly, and soon, he recounted what happened on Qinzhou’s side in general.

Subsequently, the court hall was like a fryer, and the courtiers talked about it.

Grape Empire!

It’s the Grape Empire!

They led more than a thousand warships to attack Qinzhou Mansion!

This news, no less than a thunderclap, hit everyone’s heads.

Zhu Yuanzhang was also stunned on the spot by this news.

He stood in front of the dragon chair, leaning forward slightly, overlooking the messengers below, listening carefully to every word he said.

When he learned the cause and effect of the incident, the expression on his face stiffened.

In the minds of everyone, Qinzhou was a very distant continent, and it took a long time to sail from the Daming Dynasty to Qinzhou.

In the past few years, the Daming Dynasty has occupied a lot of territory, but it is mainly concentrated on the west coast of Qinzhou.

Moreover, the West Coast alone has not yet been explored.

What is this concept? This is equivalent to the coastal area of the Daming Dynasty, not to mention the entire Daming Dynasty, just the southeast coastal area of the Daming Dynasty, it is not over.

And just by occupying such a little territory, there are already other empires eyeing Qinzhou, and even, directly attacking Qinzhou Mansion!

His Royal Highness King Qi led more than 300 Daming warships to fight a decisive battle with more than 1,000 warships of the Grape Empire on the ocean outside Qinzhou Mansion.

Although it was said that it was won in the end, this news is still very amazing.

Because there is a first round of attack, there will be a second round and a third round of attack, there is no doubt that one empire will target Qinzhou, and more and more empires will target Qinzhou.

Like wild wolves, they will attack in groups and find ways to compete for this huge cake from the hands of the Ming Dynasty.

“Your Majesty, this is the chapter of His Royal Highness King Qi, and there are details inside!”

The messenger soldiers only recounted the situation on Qinzhou’s side in general, and Zhu Rong had already written a detailed chapter.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn’t wait to wave his hand and signal the eunuch to go and bring the medallion up.

“Hurry up! Present it to us! ”

The eunuch trotted and brought the chapter up, and Zhu Yuanzhang didn’t bother to read it word by word, so he directly asked the eunuch to read it to the civil and military officials.

Therefore, the eunuch recited the passage presented by Zhu Rong in front of the Wen Wu Qunchen.

At the beginning of the chapter, I first asked Zhu Yuanzhang, Empress Ma, and the health of the birth mother and others, and after exchanging pleasantries, I talked about this earth-shattering naval battle.

This naval battle was initiated by the Grape Empire, and it was not unexpected that it was a provocation and attack launched by the royal family of the Grape Empire from top to bottom.

The purpose is to divide the land of Qinzhou!

The Grape Empire already knew where Qinzhou was, knew that there was a large borderless land here, and tried to gain a foothold in Qinzhou and get a piece of the pie.

Moreover, just for the first time, they led more than 1 ship, including 5 warships, and hundreds of pirate ships, combined into a huge sea force, and launched a crazy attack on the Qinzhou Mansion.

Because of the suddenness of the incident, Zhu Rong was able to mobilize more than three warships in a hurry, and the soldiers were far inferior in number.

The two sides fought a decisive battle above the sea. After fighting in the dark, he fought for more than three hours and finally defeated the Grape Empire.

In this war, the army and the people were integrated, and the people spontaneously organized, and under the organization and drive of the merchants, they took one civilian ship after another and bravely rushed to the sea, fought with the soldiers of the Grape Empire and pirates, and made great contributions to help the Daming water army achieve the final victory.

In this war, more than 5 soldiers and pirates of the Grape Empire were killed, more than 10,000 people were captured, and all the prisoners have been reduced to slaves, deprived of all rights, and become free labor force in Qinzhou, and they will work in Qinzhou for their lives to atone for their sins.

Zhu Rong described the causes and consequences in detail, and by the way, he also praised the people fiercely.

In fact, when the people rushed to the front, the war was nearing its end, and the people did not participate much in the war, and there were no casualties.

However, in Zhu Rong’s view, the fact that the common people rushed forward without fear of death and helped the Daming Water Army against the army of the Grape Empire was itself a commendable thing.

The integration of the army and the people, and the people’s support for the Daming army, reflects the people’s support for his work in Qinzhou, which shows that these people have no fear in the face of the imperial court.

It’s a good thing, naturally praise, don’t care about people killing a few grape soldiers or pirates.

Under the condition that the Daming water army was seriously short of ships and numbers, and was at a disadvantage, the common people used the swords and bows and arrows in their hands as weapons to help the Daming army finally win victory.

In Zhu Rong’s description, the people were extremely heroic and made great contributions, and the performance of the merchants was also very outstanding, and it was precisely because of their organization and the deployment of ships that so many people set out from the port and rushed to the front.

There was a bang in the hall, ministers, you look at me, I look at you, for a time mixed feelings, inexplicably complicated thoughts, and super embarrassing!

Because, not long ago, everyone was still discussing the cancellation of the Qinzhou Mansion’s distribution of weapons to the people, and even, severely punishing those merchants who violated the system, cutting off legs, skinning, and dividing corpses, and its criminal law can be described as extremely serious!

However, in the next moment, they received a good news from Qinzhou Mansion.

Not only did an invasion war of foreign forces break out in Qinzhou Mansion, but the common people also participated in this war, using weapons issued by Qinzhou Mansion to help the Daming army form a strong defense line, and finally defeated the murderous Grape Empire soldiers and pirates.

And those merchants who were going to be divided by their five horses, cut off their legs, and peeled off their skins played a role in organizing and guiding.

In Zhu Rong’s song, without these merchants and ordinary people, this naval battle would most likely have failed.

The soldiers and pirates of the Grape Empire are likely to rush to Qinzhou Mansion, and even, it is possible to directly let the Daming Dynasty spend years to develop the Daming territory, burn it down, and destroy it once!

And this possible consequence makes everyone’s hair stand up!

This naval battle was really too thrilling, fortunately, His Royal Highness King Qi personally sat in Qinzhou Mansion, fortunately, it was this batch of Grape Empire fleets that rushed directly towards Qinzhou Mansion, and did not choose to land in other blind areas.

Fortunately, the merchants and ordinary people of Daming were not afraid of death, took civilian boats, rushed to the front, helped the Daming water army win the final victory, and preserved the hard work of these years.

Otherwise, the consequences are simply unimaginable!

In order to pioneer Qinzhou, the Daming Dynasty paid a lot of price, moved a large number of people, and finally made a little achievement, if someone else picked the fruit, it was no different from the sky falling!

For the Daming Dynasty, it will be a huge loss, which can be weighed up!

And once the enemy is allowed to occupy Qinzhou Mansion, then even if the Daming Dynasty is supportive, it will be difficult because of the long distance, and at that time, it will become the attacking side, and the enemy will become the defensive side, and the battle situation will be even more difficult!

Without sufficient food and grass support, protracted battles cannot be launched.

If that’s the case, it’s too passive!

Thinking of this, everyone was afraid for a while.

Owls, you look at me, I look at you, they are secretly relieved.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang has already made a decision to cancel the Qinzhou government’s decree to distribute weapons to the people, and also to severely punish the merchants in Qinzhou, but this chapter came in too timely, it is just like timely rain, no, this is clearly a life-saving rain!

Even if the emperor has made up his mind, after all, the holy decree has not yet been formulated, and it is still too late to change his words.

One owl, honestly standing in their place, eyes and nose, nose and heart, just waiting to see a good show.

Some officials, they are going to punch themselves in the face!

I don’t know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is thinking or feeling in his heart now!

Prince Zhu Biao caused such a big turmoil in the court, and as a result, His Royal Highness King Qi, a small piece of performance, eliminated all crises into invisible!
