Chapter 17

In the traditional Confucian view, the morality of the king and the morality of the country are the ones that China, as the center of the world and as the heavenly dynasty, should be displayed to the world.

This kind of morality is the so-called demeanor of a great country, and is polite in education. It does not use its power to suppress small countries, nor does it bully weak countries. This view cannot be wrong, but in Zhu Yun's heart, he will never think he is right.

He always thinks that such views and attitudes are lacking in hemorrhage.

The rule that the world has persisted for thousands of years is the jungle law that preys on the weak. When you are strong, you should treat others with a kind attitude, but others may not be grateful. On the contrary, when you are weak, you can bully you unscrupulously.

Just like a person, when you are in glory, you will naturally have friends all over the world. But when you have no money, who will help you? Not only will you not help, but you will also have to flatten you.

In his opinion, a big country is to bully a small country and to be arrogant.

For example, if a polar bear talks to a country in the world, what do you look at? No country dares to say it, what do you think? If he talks to a country, practice it? No one dares to say it, practice it!

Back then, our power and tricks that have been integrated into blood for thousands of years were not so naughty. Swords and culture go hand in hand, and silently expand. In a few hundred years, how could the Saxons be able to act wildly in the world?

The old man pondered for a long time and said, "Don't turn a corner between us, you can't speak, what are you thinking?"

Zhu Yunxi smiled and then said seriously, Grandpa Huang, Datong's war reminded grandson of something. Our Ming Dynasty is now strong, but the Northern Yuan Dynasty still attacks the border every now and then. Why is this?

We are too passive! Zhu Yunxi continued to say that he would fight if he wanted to fight, and he would retreat if he wanted to. There are only those who are thieves in the world who are thieves for thousands of days, and we can’t help them. In the final analysis, it is because our nine sides are too far ahead!

As he said that, Zhu Yunxiu sat next to the old man, marked the snacks on the table, and said, "Look, for example, this is Beiping. Beyond Beiping are the guards in Liaodong, but the lands of thousands of miles outside these places are all the hiding places of the Beiyuan!"

Since the state dynasty, although the Northern Yuan Dynasty has suffered several northern expeditions, the Ming Dynasty has consumed hundreds of millions of dollars and grain. My grandson thought it would be better to set up military guards along the line and constantly push our Ming Dynasty forward.

With these frontier military guards, Beiyuan couldn't avoid it if he wanted to go south. If you were afraid of losing money in the people, we would not need our people or our wealth.

King Goryeo repeatedly asked for the title, so we would give up some blood and show our sincerity. He recruited the people and helped us build it. The court was guarding the elite, and all the prisoners who were exiled every year were all sent to the army. Every year, he collected grain from North Korea nearby, enriched the grain warehouses of the army and guards, and shared the financial burden for the Ming Dynasty.

In this way, it doesn’t take many years to make our territory bigger and bigger, and the hiding place of the Beiyuan is constantly squeezed by us. Wouldn’t we take the initiative?

Not only in Liaodong, but also in Qin and Jin. Although there is no vassal state to use it on the side of the second and third uncles. For the time being, the investment in money and food is large, but no matter how big it is, it is not as much cost as the war. Just this time, Fu Youde led his troops to Datong. The food and drinks of tens of thousands of people on the way, and the materials and money that were opened were enough to build a few military guards!

Gradually, the military and guards evolved into cities, and the more scholars and citizens of the Ming Dynasty on the frontier, the more stable they became. Moreover, these cities could completely protect the Central Plains and isolate the war from the heart of the Ming Dynasty!

The old man thought for a long time and said, "What else is there in his heart?"

Take Liaodong as an example. Since the founding of the State Dynasty, important towns in Liaodong in the Northern Yuan Dynasty have successively conquered and surrendered. You are very talented and set up vassal garrisons in Liaodong. In addition to the fourth uncle in Peiping, the most advanced Guangning garrison was granted to the fourteenth uncle of the Liao king. However, according to the territory of the previous dynasty, it was still too far behind!

The grandson wanted to restore the Tieling Guard. Speaking of this, Zhu Yunyu finally revealed his purpose and said, "Now the Tieling Guard is in the hands of North Korea, let them give it up. Not only do they have to give it up, but they also need to use their population, money and grain to build it."

With the Tieling Guard, the Liaodong Dusi Army Guards are no longer guarding, but can be directly attacked, and better control of Liaodong and governing the various tribes in Liaodong. The space of Liaodong guards has been greatly expanded!

Between Tieling Wei and Guangning Wei, Jin, Fu, Hai and Four Guards are set up. In this way, they will be linked together and become military forces that can support each other. They can not only suppress North Korea, but also dare not to peek at the land of Liaodong, but also make the Northern Yuan Dynasty have no foothold in Liaodong.

Although North Korea seems respectful, how can the meat in its mouth be spit out? The old man pondered, you are still thinking about beating North Korea in your heart!

It’s not that my grandson wants to fight, but that the Tieling Guard is related to the century-long stability plan of Liaodong! Zhu Yunxiong continued to say that Liaodong Ping and Beidiping. The fourth uncle was in charge of the Liaodong Dusi. With the fourteenth uncle’s army, there were nearly 100,000 soldiers from Beiping to Guangning Guard.

With the Tieling Guard, it can not only stabilize Liaodong and shock the barbarians. In the future, it can also use this as a outpost to directly attack the right wing of the Mongolian Plateau. Moreover, the Tieling Guard is equivalent to placing a knife on the tip of North Korea's nose, and he will do whatever he asks him to do.

Seeing that the old man's expression was a little changed, he hesitated. Zhu Yunxiu said again, Grandpa, don't take advantage of our Ming Dynasty to do these things now. The grandson said it was not nice, and later generations are used to being comfortable, so they will not do it either.

To put it even worse, our Ming Dynasty may not be able to continue to be strong.

After saying that, Zhu Yun looked at the old man with hope.

Unexpectedly, the old man said, "You didn't say that we were not careful yet. Your fourth uncle's jurisdiction is so big. There are so many soldiers in the Liaodong Dusi.

Grandpa and grandson said they wanted to restore Tielingwei, but they had no intention of the fourth uncle. Zhu Yunxiu said, grandson, just thinking about the Ming Dynasty! Besides, grandson knew that although he was in charge of the Liaodong Dusi, he could not command the fourteenth uncle's men. In the future, the nineteenth uncle, King Han, would be vassalized Kaiyuan, and the twenty-first uncle, King Shen, would be vassalized Shenyang, and would be divided from him, divide his power, and divide his troops.

Both of us understand some things! The grandson knows your hard work, and the grandson also knows that it is a family to keep the door closed, and the grandson is not so scrupulous. Zhu Yunxiong continued, "What the grandson thinks is just the Ming Dynasty."

The old man raised his legs and leaned against the soft couch to restore the Tieling Guard. It would take only three to five years to restore the Tieling Guard! As he said that, the old man stood up and sat down, saying, "Give the order to North Korea first and let the Honglu Temple argue with them, and see what he said!"

The grandson wrote to the 14th uncle of the Liao King, asking him to prepare his troops and horses. When the war between Datong is over, he will adapt to the situation! Zhu Yunsheng said.

The old man still acknowledged Zhu Yunqi's intention. Restoring the Tieling Guard was not only conducive to military affairs, but also demonstrated the legal inheritance of the Ming Dynasty to all the territory of the Yuan Dynasty in the previous dynasty.

Once this matter is decided, secretly preparations will begin.

The next day, Fu Youde led his troops out of the capital. The old man and Zhu Yunhuang stood at the head of Hongwu Gate to see off the army.

The people in the capital also saw each other off. Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the people in the capital have also developed a mad nature. In their opinion, if the thieves will be killed when the Ming Dynasty goes to war.

When Lan Yu went to war earlier, there were silver armor and gold helmets and official flags for several miles, while Fu Youde was like an ordinary old army, riding a war horse and wearing old armor, without the courage of a commander at all.

The king lost his courage, and the people were a little excited. It was not until the ceremonial war between Cao Guogong Li Jinglong appeared that the people's cheers became loud.

Zhu Yunqiu looked down from the city and marched into the army. Dozens of iron armored guards surrounded Li Jinglong and moved forward in a mighty manner.

Immediately, Li Jinglong's armor was gorgeous and he was powerful without anger. He really looked like a tiger.

Knowing that the emperor and the crown prince were watching the city, Li Jinglong, who was fighting horses, suddenly stood up stepping on the stirrups, looked back at the city, and shouted loudly.

Your Majesty, Your Highness, I will not return until I defeat the thief slave!

After shouting, dozens of private military servants from Duke Cao Li's family around him shouted, "The Ming Dynasty is victorious!" Long live Your Majesty, and the crown prince's grandson will be a thousand years old!"

Immediately afterwards, a shocking cry broke out from the army, Long live Your Majesty, Qiansui of the Emperor’s Grand His Majesty!

At the top of the city, Zhu Yunxiu looked at Li Jinglong, who was showing off his might under the city, and laughed and scolded, "This guy!"

After showing off to the city wall, Li Jinglong rode on the horse again, enduring the pain in his butt, and pretending to be nothing.

Looking at the Ming Tiger Ben who was advancing like a forest beside him, Li Jinglong thought to himself, in fact, fighting is also quite majestic!
