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

The year has come to an end.

Before he knew it, it had been a year since he crossed into this world.

time of year.

From the daze of just becoming the king of Xiang, to the decisiveness of entering Qiongzhou resolutely.

to the continuous development of Qiongzhou.

The time is very short, but only Zhu Bo understands how much he has experienced.

Sanya Bay was developed from scratch.

Excavation of Iwami Ginzan.

Provoked a war between the Northern and Southern Dynasties in Japan.

The rise of Japanese slaves.

These are all done within a year.

And the whole history has already undergone subtle changes under his efforts.

No one knows where the future will lead today.

As for Zhu Bo, now, he has rightfully controlled Qiongzhou Mansion, and he has begun to fix his eyes on Southeast Asia.

Want to build an unprecedented maritime empire.

Naturally, it is impossible to have only East Asia. Zhu Bo's eyes are fixed on the whole world, or the whole sea.

For the whole world and the whole sea, the importance of Southeast Asia is beyond doubt.

Southeast Asia is the "Crossroad" between Asia and Oceania, the Pacific Ocean and the Tianzhu Ocean. The Strait of Malacca is the "throat" of this intersection, which is of great strategic importance.

.

Whether it is the era of great navigation in history, or later generations.

Controlling the Strait of Malacca represents its absolute authority.

As a traveler, Zhu Bo naturally understands this better.

Even from the very beginning, he was not targeting island countries, but Southeast Asia, Malacca.

It's just that he didn't have the ability to move Southeast Asia before, and he didn't have the ability to touch Malacca.

Today, there are indeed few powerful countries in Southeast Asia, and most countries are extremely weak.

It is better to say that it is a country than a city-state of the natives.

But in Southeast Asia, at this time, a giant existence has emerged.

That is the current Pirate King, Chen Zuyi.

Chen Zuyi's ancestral home was in Chaozhou, Guangdong. During the Ming Hongwu period, his family fled to the South China Sea to become pirates. Occupying Malacca for more than ten years, he has become one of the leaders of the world's largest pirate group, with more than 10,000 members in its heyday. Nearly a hundred warships. He looted more than 10,000 passing ships, captured more than 50 coastal towns, and even paid tribute to some countries in the South China Sea. Ming Taizu once offered a reward of 500,000 taels of silver to capture him. During the Yongle period, the bounty was as high as 7.5 million taels. At that time, the annual financial revenue of the Ming Dynasty was only 11 million taels. This makes Chen Zuyi the most wanted criminal in history.

Even many historians of later generations believe that the major factor in the isolation of the country during the Lao Zhu period was because pirates were too rampant. Then, according to this logic, Chen Zuyi's pirate activities led to the sea ban of the Ming Dynasty, and the isolation of the country led to the backwardness of modern China. In this sense, Chen Zuyi, a little-known person, in fact unconsciously acted as a person who changed the direction of China's history. key person.

Now with his intervention, Chen Zuyi is not as powerful as in history.

But the number of people has already passed, and the warships have exceeded one hundred.

In addition, Zhu Bo has been entrenched in Southeast Asia all year round, and it is almost difficult for Zhu Bo to solve it, so he has no plans to move him for a short time.

But now, with his full control of Qiongzhou Mansion, this one has become an existence that must be resolved.

As for whether it can be solved.

At this time, Zhu Bo still had a sense of self-confidence.

Under the development of one year, his strength has reached an incredible level.

It only takes a few more months of preparation before he can set off directly.

I believe that winning Chen Zuyi in one fell swoop will not be a big problem.

Faced with one thing, Zhu Bo naturally put all other things on hold temporarily.

Thoughts flow.

Among the buildings one by one, the construction and recruitment started rapidly.

And time passed by inadvertently.

In order to avoid accidents, Zhu Bo spent almost three months preparing this time.

When the ships went into the sea, he began to command the army to set off in a mighty manner.

And time, in this case, entered August.

In August of the twenty-fourth year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang had the idea of ​​moving the capital to Xi'an, so he ordered Zhu Biao to inspect Shaanxi. At the same time, Zhu Shuang, the king of Qin who was enshrined here, was recalled to the capital because he made many mistakes in the local area. Therefore, Zhu Biao was also asked to take the opportunity to investigate the words and deeds of the king of Qin.

in Kyoto.

Zhu Yuanzhang saw off his son.

This is also the only existence among the many princes.

"Prince, here you go, remember one thing, check Chang'an to see if it's feasible.

"By the way, Twelve said that you should bring some imperial doctors there, and I have already prepared it for you."

Lao Zhu warned seriously.

"I don't need it if I am a royal doctor. My father is in good health, and there will be no problem in going to Chang'an."

Prince Zhu Biao shook his head, indicating that he did not need an imperial doctor.

As for Zhu Bo's reminder, he remembered it, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

"Take it with you, if you catch a cold on the road, you won't suffer!

Lao Zhu shook his head and spoke with affirmation.

"Father, your health has not been good recently, so there is really no need for the imperial doctor.

Prince Zhu Biao shook his head.

After several excuses, Zhu Biao finally did not bring the imperial doctor with him.

Although Zhu Bo had already reminded him, Zhu Biao didn't care too much.

Of course, the more important thing is to worry about his father's body.

My dad is a workaholic.

Once he's gone, expect his dad to deal with it almost all night.

And Zhu Biao was also afraid that something would happen to his father.

Feeling Zhu Biao's rejection, Lao Zhu wanted to speak again, but in the end he didn't force it, after all, this was a piece of filial piety from his son.

The revision of history is reflected again at this moment.

Zhu Bo's words did not play as big a role in this as he imagined.

Maybe even if it is brought, Zhu Biao may not have other possibilities.

Years of overwork and illness are not just a problem of wind and cold.

Zhu Biao was born in the September of the first year of the dragon and phoenix years. When Lao Zhu called him the king of Wu, he established him as the heir and studied scriptures with Song Lian. He was carefully taught since childhood, and Ming Taizu placed high hopes on him and cultivated him in many ways. In the first month of Hongwu's first year, he was established as the crown prince, and he was officially established as his successor. . . .

Hongwu ten years) after the birth of the second son Zhu Yunwen. This year Zhu Biao was twenty-two years old, and Zhu Yuanzhang saw that he was already old, so he ordered all future political affairs and the prince to punish him, and then made a report. Intentionally let the prince visit the ministers every day and listen to the notices of the ministers to practice state affairs.

From then on, Zhu Biao began to study his father's diligent political thought, and assisted his father in daily government affairs.

As a workaholic Zhu Yuanzhang, so did Zhu Biao.

At this point, after the prime minister was abolished, the prince Zhu Biao became the nominal prime minister, and his level of labor was evident.

Just look at Zhu Gaochi behind him.

The same overwork.

Equally short-lived.

These, even Zhu Bo didn't think about it temporarily.

He thought that in the tangle, he advised his elder brother, maybe he could change something.

To this end also made a great determination.

But in fact, this is not the relationship between bringing the imperial doctor and not bringing it.

Of course, Zhu Bo at this moment did not pay attention to these.

Three months to prepare.

Now he has completed the integration of the entire force.

Above Sanya Bay.

A large ship stands.

After three months of hard work, the number of his warships has exceeded three hundred.

At the same time, the number of soldiers also reached more than 20,000.

This time he was ready to go out in full force.

The purpose is to work hard and completely solve Chen Zuyi.

After all, once Chen Zuyi is resolved, then his control of Southeast Asia is almost half complete.

Southeast Asia, let alone now, may not have much power even in a few hundred years.

Now as long as Chen Zuyi is dealt with, it is even simpler.

Of course, in order to avoid accidents, Zhu Bo did not participate this time.

He just intends to take a sea ship to directly encircle and suppress the entire Chen Zuyi.

Of course before the siege.

Today's Zhu Bo has also begun to lay out.

In three months, he was not just preparing and making warships.

With a twinkling of his eyes, a map 4.4 appeared in the air in front of him.

That is the map that comes with the system.

three months.

Zhu Bo successively dispatched personnel, or cargo ships or fishing boats, to be stationed around Southeast Asia one by one.

From the southern part of South Vietnam, to Luzon Island, to the later East Timor, his ships have been deployed in the past.

Now the map of the entire Southeast Asia has been completely presented in front of him.

And the most obvious of these is where Luzon is located, the big red blob.

Zhu Bo also had to be grateful for this, and his cheap dad offered a reward to Chen Zuyi.

This reward directly made Chen Zuyi the only red.

It can also allow him to quickly determine the location of Chen Zuyi.

If there is no such a reward, if they are not enemies, Zhu Bo would actually be a little troublesome to determine where this person is.

After all, Chen Zuyi is not a country, but a pirate. The most difficult thing for a pirate is to lock.

Now there is no such problem.
