Daming: At the start of the showdown, Lao Zhu was stunned

Chapter 499 Take the initiative to show off the power of Ming Dynasty
The nobles were naturally dissatisfied after hearing his words, and a group of people scolded him continuously, blaming him for boosting other people's ambitions and destroying their own prestige.

However, among the civil servants, quite a few people agree with what he said.

"Old fifth, what do you think?" Lao Zhu didn't say a word to him, but just asked Zhu Su.

Zhu Su thought for a while and replied proudly: "What this gentleman said is indeed true. Anyone who uses military force naturally has no guarantee of victory. Even if he is several times the enemy, he may encounter a storm or meteorite and the whole army will be wiped out. . Therefore, we must be cautious when using military force externally. This is also the reason why the saint uses soldiers as weapons, to warn future generations like us not to use weapons easily."

Even Zhu Di and the others were slightly surprised when the complexions of Lan Yu and other nobles changed.But Zhu Su changed his style of painting: "But being careful with your troops doesn't mean you don't use them in your hands."

"Although our Ming Dynasty is prosperous, it is also because of the dangerous military situation. Even if our country's national power is several times that of today, if the other country is united, I am afraid it will be difficult to defeat it in one fell swoop."

"At this time, the Emperor of Japan asked me for help from Ming Dynasty, which is the time when we can justify our name and intervene in Japan's domestic affairs. If this good opportunity is missed, when will we have this opportunity again?"

"The so-called opportunity cannot be missed. If we have to wait until we are very sure of everything before we can act, when will my Ming Dynasty really land in our country?"

"However, Master Ding's words are also reasonable." An official said. "If we send troops to the Wa country, I'm afraid that the northern border will not be able to catch it. If we attack Goryeo, the Yuan court will be eyeing us."

"Even if we want to expand our territory, we should put our ancestral homeland in China as our top priority..."

"Father, my son thinks that it is precisely because of my ancestral land in China that we cannot easily let go of such a golden opportunity that has been rarely seen in thousands of years." Zhu Su was about to speak, but Zhu Di suddenly came out, leaned over and said.

"Wei Guogong and Xin Guogong have indeed managed both the north and the south to be impregnable. But we, the great Ming Dynasty, have millions of soldiers in our hands. Could it be that we just stand there and let them bully them, and let these barbarian countries burn the flames of war? Are you going to blame the people of Ming Dynasty?"

"My son is not talented, and I am willing to lead the army for my father, destroy the ancestral temples of Goryeo and Wa, capture their royal family, and let them know the price of provoking my Great Ming Dynasty!"

What Zhu Di said was majestic, and Zhu Su couldn't help nodding his head in agreement.That's how it should be!What did you say that the Ming Dynasty is flourishing, and that as long as you just sit still, you can spread the king's transformation... Those are all civil officials' tricks to fool people!What does it mean to be a king of kosen? If people pay tribute to local products, we give back several times the amount of gold, silver and jewels, and let foreign countries take China as their culprit. Is this considered a king of kosen?
fart!We are polite to Fan Bangxiao, but those barbarians may not be moved by China.What they always have in their eyes is their interests, and they can't accept the slightest bit of Wanghua.

When China is strong, they may kneel down and lick it, but one day when China is in trouble, these people will definitely pounce on it like vultures and wild dogs, fighting for the flesh and blood of the Chinese giant!
This has been proven by history!

If you are not familiar with it, you will not learn well.Even if Chinese culture is spread to foreign countries, those people will still only have its appearance but not its spirit. Although they know the small rituals, they have no great meaning.In this case, it is better to swallow it directly into the belly.

By completely wiping out their top leaders and letting China rule these barbaric lands, perhaps we can truly wash away their barbarism and spread civilization.

It can also save future generations from shedding blood and tears.

Facing Zhu Di's challenge, Lao Zhu still couldn't deny it.This time, his eyes turned to Prince Zhu Biao. "Biaoer, you are the prince."

"What do you think we, Daming, should do?"

Everyone looked at the prince Zhu Biao who was standing quietly by the side. Zhu Biao only thought for a moment, and then came out and said, "I report to my father."

"There is a folk saying that goes well: There is only one who can be a thief for a thousand days, but there is no one who can guard against a thief for a thousand days."

"The Japanese and Goryeo wolf ambitions, if only passive defense is like guarding against thieves for a thousand days, if my Ming Dynasty is negligent, I will have to pay a huge price."

"Blindly backing down is not a long-term solution. Since this is the case, it is better to seize the opportunity and take the initiative to attack, so that they will know my Great Ming's heavenly power."

Zhu Biao is neither humble nor overbearing.

"Okay!" "His Royal Highness said it well!" "Even the common people know the truth, you officials who have read poetry and books are not as good as common people!"

The weight of the prince is self-evident.Zhu Biao clearly supports sending troops, so this matter can be regarded as a certainty.

The nobles of the main battle faction rejoiced, but the official who just came out did not expect that the always gentle prince would say such words.An official said: "His Royal Highness, don't be young and vigorous! The weapons of soldiers, Japan and Korea are lonely overseas, if you do not act carelessly..."

"If you act carelessly...then be more careful and win the battle!" But it was Emperor Hongwu who stood up from the main seat and said decisively.The emperor's domineering hint in Zhu Biao's words really surprised and delighted him as a father. "I only know how to procrastinate, wait for the opportunity to slip away, and postpone things to future generations... Is this what it means to be mature and prudent?"

"If you want us to say, this should be called a dead body, a vegetarian meal in the corpse!"

"When we select officials in the Ming Dynasty, what we want is not a paperbacker who can get by, but a capable official who dares to do things and is not afraid of them! Whenever we talk about sending troops, we will use any weapon. It seems that the sky will collapse if we use soldiers."

"If something happens, if we are all holding back, not daring to move this or that, how can we kill Chen Youliang, destroy Zhang Shicheng, drive the Mongolian Yuan to the north, and restore China's glory?"

After the emperor had said these words, the officials who originally wanted to gather together to persuade the prince Zhu Biao could only accept the criticism with their hands, and did not dare to say another word.

"Let's all step down. Mr. Li, Mr. Liu, the eldest, the fourth, and the fifth stay behind. Everyone else, go back to their respective yamen." Old Zhu waved his robe sleeves.A group of officials hurriedly saluted and said goodbye, not daring to stay any longer.Staying here is an eyesore, and I'm afraid the black hat will be lost.On the contrary, most of the nobles were beaming and gearing up, all of them thinking together in their hearts, how to take the initiative to ask for a fight in a few days, so that they can gain some military exploits in the upcoming war.

After these people left, Nuo Da's Jinshen Hall became quiet.Old Zhu first turned his head and asked Li Shanchang: "Mr. Li, what do you think we should do about this?"

"With the Ming Dynasty's current reserves, can we wage war on both sides and capture Japan and Goryeo at the same time?"

In the past few years, Li Shanchang has become a little older. There were still a few wisps of black hair that were not white, but now his head is covered with hoarfrost.However, his complexion is quite energetic. In the past few years in the court, he only regarded himself as a Bodhisattva carved in clay and wood. It is also responsive.

Just now, when there was a court meeting in the palace, he never said a word.At this time, the emperor made an inquiry, and he replied as if he had just come to his senses: "Your Majesty."

"Although the government treasury has a surplus of money and food compared to previous years, it may still be beyond our reach if we want to fight the North and the South at the same time and guard against the Mongolian Yuan."

"Although Goryeo committed acts of disobedience, she disguised herself as a thief and acted as a thief. I'm afraid it's hard to be justified by Commander Ye's words alone."

"In my opinion, Your Majesty can focus on the Wa country first. After all, the Wa country is in civil strife, and the emperor took the initiative to invite him."

"You don't need to send a large army, but if you send a part of the army ahead, maybe you can move a thousand catties in four or two, and have a miraculous effect that we didn't expect?"
