Zhu Yuanzhang: I Forbid The Sea, But The Sun Never Sets On The Sea

What is the development of European civilization?

That's in the Industrial Revolution.

The industrial revolution has created huge productive forces and has made earth-shaking changes in the face of society. The Industrial Revolution was also a profound transformation of social relations. It divided society into two distinct classes, the industrial bourgeoisie and the industrial proletariat.

The key to the so-called creation of huge productivity lies in the further discovery of tools.

The iconic existence of the so-called first industrial revolution, one is the steam engine, and the other is the Jenny spinning machine.

Compared with the Jenny spinning machine, the role of the steam engine is undoubtedly greater.

This almost brought about a real technological revolution.

A steam engine is a reciprocating power machine that converts the energy of steam into mechanical work. The advent of the steam engine caused the Industrial Revolution in the 18th century. Until the beginning of the 20th century, it was still the most important prime mover in the world, and then gradually gave way to internal combustion engines and steam turbines.

It once promoted the development of machinery industry and even society, solved the most critical problems in the production of large machines, and promoted unprecedented progress in transportation. The thermodynamics and mechanics established with its development laid the foundation for the development of steam turbines and internal combustion engines.

Although it was Watt's improved steam engine that really drove the Industrial Revolution.

Not the original steam engine.

But the appearance of this thing also represents an extremely critical step.

Daxia spreads out towards the world, towards the entire center.

In particular, with the addition of the university, there is also the bonus of spectacles. I believe that the steam engine can move forward quickly, and will soon be able to reach a new level.

This point, Zhu Bo did not have the slightest doubt.

Or rather, it's almost inevitable.

Although the role of the spectacle only increases a little every ten years, it cannot be held that it is permanent, and it will increase more and more with the passage of time.

940 plus university promotion.

The effect is absolutely unprecedented.

Even he couldn't help but look forward to it.

and longing.

For him, the fundamental goal of this journey is to change the destiny of this nation and this country.

I don't want to have another hundred years of darkness.

I also don't want the Chinese civilization that has been standing on the top of the world to fall to the bottom again.

But even if he opened the era of great sailing, even if he opened the door to a new world.

But no one knows what the future holds.

The power of revision of history, I do not know when it will be staged.

But if the Chinese civilization took the lead in completing the industrial revolution, then all this would naturally be different.

Under the huge advantage, it is not possible to catch up if you want to catch up.

Under the absolute gap, with his continuous expansion, this gap is even bigger.

So in the past few years, when the society gradually stabilized, most of his attention was placed on the university.

try to get the results he wants.

Several years have passed now.

Finally got a preliminary result.

A smile appeared under his face, and then a series of orders were issued quickly.

At the same time, the university in Shangjing also received the authorization of the highest authority in an instant.

Can mobilize all resources, all materials.

And this undoubtedly made the university's action more rapid.

The research was once again opened.

And this moment is bright.

With Zhu Di's ascension to the throne, earth-shaking changes began.

The first is that the original (ccee) Zhu Yunwen's policy will be abolished. In fact, he began to describe his own dynasty.

Compared with the previous Zhu Di.

Zhu Di, who had an all-night conversation with Zhu Bo, was undoubtedly more aware.

The same policy has been issued.

In May, Fujian Dusi was ordered to build 137 ships

In August, ordered Jingwei and Zhejiang, Huguang, Jiangxi, Suzhou and other prefectures to build more than 200 shipping ships

Emperor Yongle ordered all Fuzhou shipyards to undertake large-scale shipbuilding tasks

In the same month, Zhu Di's first edict was to move the capital from Nanjing to Beijing. The Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven and the Great Bell of Yongle are the three major projects in the construction of the capital. Ming Chengzu called the emperor and moved the capital, and was busy casting bells in order to publicize the "great cause" of the "Battle of Jingnan" and the "feat" of Dingding Beijing

.

In September, when grain was transported from Jiangnan to Zhigu, the total amount for the whole year was 61,230 shi, and only 490,000 shi was safely transported. Zhu Di was furious and killed more than a dozen people in a row.

Policies are also being issued, and changes are also taking place in Daming.

When Zhu Yunwen changed his position, he became Zhu Di.

All of a sudden, the situation changed completely.

Compared with Zhu Yunwen who grew up in the deep palace, Zhu Di was killed with one knife and one shot from the battlefield.

In terms of ability and knowledge, Zhu Yunwen was really thrown dozens of streets away.

Of course, at this moment, Zhu Di was fooled by Zhu Bo, and his eyes were completely set on the north.

on those nomads.

The image created that day was recalled in his mind for a long time.

"Twelfth brother!"

The soft voice spoke, and Zhu Di couldn't help laughing at this moment.

Although he knew that Zhu Bo's goal was to take his eyes away from Nanyang and let him notice the grassland.

But Zhu Bo not only gave him options, but also gave him solutions.

It even gave him a very expansive vision.

How to choose naturally needless to say.

The first year of Yongle.

This year, Zhu Di was in Zheng He and Daming Jiangshan.

as in history.

The only difference is that at this moment, Zhu Di is no longer the same as in the history of relaxing the sea ban, and restoring the shipping divisions of Guangzhou, Quanzhou and Ningbo, which are responsible for checking the identity of the tribute envoys to China, arranging the tribute envoys' accommodation, and managing the ports.

But compared to Lao Zhu's more exaggerated release.

Ships from all over the world began to appear quickly like bamboo shoots after a rain.

The era of opening the sea has come.

And in this way, the communication between Daxia and Daming is also closer.

The mutual advancement of civilizations between each other has once again reached a new level.

Zhu Di also started preparations for the Northern Expedition.

At the same time Central Asia.

Timur was hit hard in the subcontinent.

With the appearance of Daxia, Timur had just suppressed the Central Asian rebellion and had to focus his attention on the subcontinent.

They have dispatched men and horses to explore the subcontinent.

It's just that he is facing Lan Yu, and every time he tries, he returns in vain.

They even had a major war with each other.

As a result, Timur suffered heavy losses.

Such a result made Timur temporarily have to give up his plan to continue his southern invasion, and instead focused his attention on the west.

In 1400, Timur marched and sacked Sivas, burying 4,000 defenders who were stubbornly resisting. The subjects of the Ottoman Empire who were dissatisfied with the rule of Sultan "Lightning" Bayezid I, as well as the monarchs and nobles of the small countries in Asia Minor who were invaded by the Turks, asked Timur for assistance. In 1402, Timur led an army of about 140,000 to 160,000 people into Asia Minor.

In 1403, Timur continued westward, arrived on the coast of the Aegean Sea, captured Smyrna, a port city in western Asia Minor occupied by the Knights of Rhodes, slaughtered the residents who refused to convert, and then returned to the division. Since then, the territory of the Timurid Empire extended from the Pamirs to Asia Minor and the Arabian Peninsula.

Its scope has become the third huge empire after Daxia and Daming.

Just compared to Daxia, even compared to Daming.

Timur's empire is relatively loose.

It can still only be regarded as the nature of the Mongolian Khanate.

Domestic mobilization ability and combat ability are inferior.

But at this time Timur is still expanding.

It is spreading further west, towards Africa.

Vaguely seems to be about to become a huge empire spanning three continents of Asia, Europe and Africa.

no way.

Originally, when Timur was expanding to the present level, he would set his sights on the east.

After hearing about the Jingnan change in the Ming Dynasty, Timur stopped paying tribute to the Ming Dynasty and began to plan the expedition to the Ming Dynasty. After defeating the Ottoman Empire in 1402, Timur held a Kuriltai in Samarkand to discuss the expedition to Ming Dynasty.

But now, events in the subcontinent have made him realize the power of China again.

In his cognition, he naturally didn't know the relationship between Daxia and Daming at this time.

Da Xia's strength made him have to reconsider Da Ming's problem.

Expeditions are naturally impossible.

Expeditions are now impossible, at least.

He needs to further expand the strength of the Timurid Empire.

But then go to restore the glory of the ancestors.

Compared with expanding to the east, expanding to the west is the easiest and most direct way.

As a result, the entire Central Asia and West Asian civilizations are undoubtedly caught in the flames of war.

The ancient civilization was destroyed, and Mongolia's iron hoof trampled on them once again, reminding them of the strength of the Mongolians hundreds of years ago.

Countless people are crawling.

Countless people are kneeling.

Countless people are resisting.

The slaughter permeated the whole of Central Asia and West Asia.

Timur's power was further enhanced along with the expansion.

And that's still not enough.

Not enough, at least in his opinion.

He still had a fresh memory of the war with Daxia a year ago.

He personally brought an army of 100,000 people and encountered only 30,000 people in China.

The end result was his complete collapse.

If it wasn't for bad luck, he would have been completely buried there.

And this incident has deeply become a shadow in his heart, making him eager to become more powerful.
