Chapter 972: Loyalty
The flowers of yesterday bloom the fruits of today.
At the beginning, the unprofitable behavior of the Three Treasure Eunuchs attracted the opposition of the ministers, so that in the end, the Western Ocean was strangled in the cradle.
But......
When the Ming Dynasty went to the West again, and the Francois wreaked havoc in the West, the frightened Western countries almost unanimously remembered this moral neighbor.
So...... Morality...... It's not completely unnecessary.
What the Franco-Rang machine people need to spend countless guns to obtain, but the Ming does not need to use a single soldier, and someone else will provide it.
And in this map, more than 30 ports, all of which are the hinterland of the important towns of the upper countries, and the lower ones, are suitable for ships to shelter from the wind, and are blessed with unique natural harbors, and even can hold some golden waterways of the important places, and in the Western Ocean, there are already the remnants of the Han Dynasty, on the one hand, the Ming Dynasty can be stationed in military horses, and at the same time, it can also directly open up the trade route, which is really a rare good place.
Emperor Hongzhi's eyebrows danced.
What glory can be more revealed, the great tomorrow is the four seas, this is the proof.
In this way, the Ming Dynasty's ability to control the Western states will reach an unprecedented level.
Not only that, but the future supply of the fleet will no longer be a problem.
Even...... The tributary system will be even closer.
Western spices, as well as countless products, will be continuously transported into the Ming Dynasty, and countless cloths, silks, porcelain, and various commercial goods of the Ming Dynasty will also continue to penetrate into the Western countries.
Commerce and culture will also be closer.
Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but bow his head and nodded again and again: "This great achievement, the Qing family understated, and only mentioned the negotiation with various countries, but I don't know the hardships involved." ”
The so-called negotiation is negotiation, not only to get what you want, but also to try to pay as little as possible what the other party wants, even if the countries are threatened by the Franco, hoping to use the power of the Ming Dynasty to balance the Franco, but the other party is by no means a fish on the board, in it, Xu Jing has a lot of credit.
Emperor Hongzhi's eyes lit up, which emperor is not good at rejoicing in his achievements, but some sons of heaven have no merit, and they have to make something to make it seem that they have made great contributions. And some of them can still recognize themselves.
But that's a real credit.
In the future, in his own record, this will be recorded, although Xu Jing has merit, but this is not the credit of the Hongzhi Emperor.
Emperor Hongzhi said: "The Qing family continues. ”
Xu Jingzheng said: "Since then, the ministers, in Kunlun Zhou, in Tianzhu, have had a confrontation with the Franco man, the Franco man's ship is strong, and he is indeed not an idle person, but my Daming Sailor is also not far behind, and has captured several ports, which can be used by me in the future." ”
Xu Jing continued: "The fleet of the Ming Dynasty has since penetrated deep into the Golden Continent, in addition to starting to establish a stronghold to ensure the smooth flow of waterways in the future, at the same time, it is also necessary to connect it with the Ming Dynasty, and the ministers are ordered to set up three strongholds in the Golden Continent, build three towns, and order people to reclaim, and at the same time, negotiate with the nearby natives, punish them for not being subordinate, and at the same time, also promote the benevolence of my Ming Dynasty." He organized several expeditions to the interior of the country, and the results were very gratifying...... This golden continent is truly blessed by heaven, its land is flat, the forests are luxuriant, and there is a large amount of copper, iron, gold and silver, and not only that, the land is extremely fertile, and there is almost no disaster, and the inland territory is ten thousand miles, and the pegasus has twenty days, and there is no end in sight. Its native people, most of them still drink blood and hair, or thousands of people gather as a clan, or build a city-state and become a country, some of the native tribes, quite unruly, but its combat power, but not to be afraid, some of the native people, but very docile, willing to associate with my Ming Dynasty, and good neighbors. ”
Xu Jingkou was like a river, and said: "If the ministers are brave, if all the people of my Ming Dynasty are moved to the Golden Continent, the fertile soil of 10,000 miles is enough to make me Ming, and everyone has no worries about food and clothing." ”
When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he couldn't help but change his color.
It can feed the entire Ming Dynasty, and it can also worry about food and clothing.
What a vast and fertile land it is.
In other words, the maps left behind by the eunuchs of the Three Treasures are all true.
Xu Jing said: "It's just that the Francois people have taken the lead compared to my Ming, they are very jealous of my Ming, and they know that my Ming has established a stronghold in the Golden Continent, they seem to be unwilling to divide their energy to fight with us, but they seem to be incorporating this Golden Continent into their rule, and they are a little more urgent, so they kill in the Golden Continent, settle their immigrants, establish many villages and towns, strongholds, build fortresses, and plunder gold and silver...... Your Majesty......"
Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "I remember that you and your mentor once said a sentence, that is, this Golden Continent, its fertile land is thousands of miles, and my China, not to mention much, my central country, there are thousands of people, it is really the whole world, and the fertile land within the four seas is all owned by me, so ...... All the nations in the world, in front of my Ming, are not worth mentioning, this is the foundation of my Ming. ”
Emperor Hongzhi paced back and forth with his hands behind his back: "But...... If there are only natives in the Golden Continent, they can still live in harmony with them, and Fang Qing's family ......"
Fang Jifan hurriedly came out: "The minister is here." ”
Emperor Hongzhi said with emotion: "But if the Francois people occupy the entire Golden Continent, their wolf ambitions, in the West is to rob the house, like robbers, they are all strong ships and cannons, their artillery and guns, and even the ships they build, are not under my Ming, and even some, than my Ming, more sharp, the country of small projectiles, can actually cross the ocean, with a small division of the teacher, and between the hand, you can destroy a country, not to be underestimated." ”
Emperor Hongzhi's face was frosty: "If they really let them occupy the Golden Continent, and the Ming Dynasty turns a deaf ear to this, then ...... Thirty years later, a hundred years later, three hundred years later, if the Daming Temple still exists, their ships and firearms will be sharper, and their population, relying on the reproduction of the Golden Continent, will not be under my Daming. ”
Emperor Hongzhi put his hands behind his back, his face was particularly stern, and he said: "It seems that this kind of fierceness, I don't know how to converge, and day by day, everything, insulting the sacred, all rude and righteous people, sooner or later, it is the trouble of my Ming heart, and now the Francois machine is to avoid the descendants of all generations from this danger, the Golden Continent, must not be in the hands of the Francois man, I Daming, need to set up more strongholds and towns, strengthen vigilance, win over the natives, and wait for the future, in the Golden Continent, face the Franco, and one of them! ”
Fang Jifan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty Shengming." ”
The more he went to the West, the more disgusted Emperor Hongzhi became for the behavior of Franco.
Fang Jifan's Franco-threatening theory made it even more difficult for Emperor Hongzhi to sleep.
He is not a man who is drunk today.
For example, if a man thinks about today's things today, after I die, he will not care about the flood.
However, Emperor Hongzhi seems to have continued a certain character of Emperor Taizu Gao of the old Zhu family, and Emperor Taizu Gao thought about everything that would happen thousands of years later, for fear that his children and grandchildren would suffer, so he tried his best to think about how to remove hidden dangers for his children and grandchildren.
Emperor Hongzhi, probably the same.
Emperor Hongzhi thought about it, his face softened slightly, and then he looked at Xu Jing: "I heard that the Francois is very close to the Golden Continent?" ”
"Yes, much closer than Daming...... But...... Not necessarily. ”
"What?" Emperor Hongzhi looked at Xu Jing.
Xu Jing said: "In the process of sailing, we found that the earth under our feet seemed to be a ball. ”
Emperor Hongzhi thought thoughtfully: "If you continue to speak, it seems that the map of the world of the Three Treasure Eunuchs can also be proven." So...... The minister operated a stronghold on the east side of the Golden Continent, but Shou Ninghou and Jian Changbo led a fleet around the Golden Continent, and they prepared to reach the southernmost point of the Golden Continent, and then circumnavigated the entire Golden Continent to the west bank of the Golden Continent...... This is where the gold mountain is located. ”
Emperor Hongzhi looked surprised: "This ...... Is that ......."
Xu Jing said: "After they arrive at Jinshan, they will be repaired, and after that, they will sail all the way west......"
"All the way to the west......"
Emperor Hongzhi was a little confused.
These two stupid uncles really don't know how to die.
Where did they get the courage to dare to break away from the main force of the sailors and go around the entire Golden Continent, on the way, if there is the slightest danger, are they not afraid of being killed in the belly of the fish.
"Confused!" Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but reprimand.
Xu Jing said: "Your Majesty, the minister has also dissuaded you, but ...... Shou Ninghou and Jian Changbo read a poem. ”
“……”
Xu Jing said: "Why don't you take Wu Hook and collect Guanshan Fifty Prefectures." Please go to Lingyan Pavilion temporarily, if you are a scholar and a marquis? ”
Emperor Hongzhi was speechless.
How to explain to Queen Zhang?
This is their own death.
But does Empress Zhang believe it?
His two brothers who are greedy for life and afraid of death, still have such lofty ambitions?
Inexistent!
Most of the Empress Zhang would think that the two brothers acted on their own secret orders.
Emperor Hongzhi sighed, but smiled: "They have this ambition, good, good, so many men in this world, dare to ride the wind and waves, why can't they go?" ”
Fang Jifan was speechless.
These two guys, they won't really go to Jinshan.
Uncle, this San Francisco may not be the same as they imagined.
If they get to the location of the Golden Mountain, will they curse me day and night?
Yes...... No, it should be a curse on the Three Treasure Eunuchs, anyway, this map was left by the 'Three Treasure Eunuchs'.
Oh my God, poor eunuch of the Three Treasures, when he dies, he will not be able to live in peace.
Fang Jifan hurriedly said: "Shou Ninghou and Jianchang Bo have always been well aware of righteousness, brave and strategic, and when they see it today, they are really loyal and righteous, Your Majesty, they admire it very much." ”
