My Daming New Empire
Page 751
But you can't give up eating because of choking, because you are afraid, just seal up such a sharp weapon!
At this time, he also realized the contradiction of why Zhu Zhanji didn't vigorously promote the new musket now.
However, now that Daming's musket is invincible, if it is not promoted for the time being, the impact will not be great.
Daming's army was still resting in Herat, but Daming's cavalry were chasing Timur's deserters everywhere, and the news of Herat's destruction quickly spread throughout Central Asia.
Not only the city of Herat was destroyed, but even Shahru and his four sons were all killed. Such a powerful Ming made all the tribes terrified.
In Kabul, Zhang Xin and Mu Xin, who had been carrying out harassment tactics, were immediately disappointed when they got the news.
They suffered all kinds of hardships around Kabul, but they missed the great success.
Now they only hope that Zhu Di will go north as soon as possible, so that they can make great contributions when they attack Samarkand.
But Zhang Chang was different. He had already made great contributions. At this time, he just wanted to hide his strength and bide his time, so he proposed to Zhu Di that he was willing to garrison Herat, and cleared the rear for the supply of the army.
This suggestion is exactly what Zhu Di wanted. In fact, he is also having a headache now.
A relative like Zhang Chang cannot be promoted too high, but now that he has made such a contribution, it will not be justified if he is not rewarded.
But it's not too late to think about this matter when we return to Daming, and now is the time to continue going north with all our strength.
Samarkand, the largest city in Central Asia, fell into a violent shock after receiving the news that the Herat defenders were wiped out.
Whether it was Shah Rugh or Ulugh Beg, the two father and son had even higher prestige in the hearts of the subjects than Timur.
They are deeply respected by the people, which is the main reason why they have been stable in ruling this union-style country.
But now, because of the destruction of Shah Ruh and his cavalry, the strength of many tribes has surpassed Ulugh Beg.
Relying solely on the power of Ulugh Beg will not be able to deter all parties and form a balance.
Before Ming's army arrived, Samarkand was already in chaos.
Uluh Beg was also in despair. Daming had muskets, powerful explosives, elite cavalry, and well-disciplined infantry.
What did he use to resist?
Moreover, with the death of his father and four younger brothers, he could no longer control the overall situation.Not to mention the covetous East Chahatai Khanate, even the West Chahatai Khanate has become chaotic.
There is no worst, only worse!
At this time, he already wanted to start fleeing westward. He would go to the Golden Horde first. If Tuotuo lost his mind and refused to take him in, he would continue westward...
Now that he is not Daming's opponent, he can only recharge his energy and recharge his batteries, and retaliate later.
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
Ying Tianfu.
The spring of Yongle 19 came later than usual.After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, there was another heavy snowfall, followed by continuous rain, and the sun did not rise for more than half a month.
The cold weather made roads everywhere icy, and people's lives were greatly troubled.
The second day of February is the day when the dragon raises its head.Every year on this day in previous years, Zhu Di would lead civil and military officials to cultivate land in Huangzhuang, but Zhu Zhanji was unwilling to talk about this falsehood, and because of the heavy rain and wandering on the second day of junior high school, this procedure was cancelled.
For the students rushing for the exam in the capital, it is a blessing that the imperial court adjusted the spring to March this year.
Otherwise, in this bitterly cold and rainy February, taking the exam in the Gongyuan for nine days in a row, I am afraid that I will really die.
Juren from all corners of the country came to Yingtianfu from their hometowns, and what they saw completely overturned their imaginations.
Zhu Zhanji's development of Daming cannot be achieved overnight.Yingtianfu is his experimental field, and only if he succeeds here, will he implement it nationwide.
At present, in addition to the patent law, cement, and banks have a relatively large impact on the whole country, because these are a game of chess for the whole country.
Cement is for road construction, so cement factories must be built locally, and these factories will be set up everywhere.
In other industrial fields, waterwheel power is more common in Jiangnan, and there are only a few settings in other places.
However, the impetus brought about by industrial development has already affected the lives of ordinary people.
For example, bearings, because the original carriage did not have bearings, the axles were prone to wear and tear.
But now with bearings, there are iron shafts, and with iron wheels wrapped with wooden strips, the load-bearing capacity has greatly increased.
Although most people don't know that this is Zhu Zhanji's credit, but this influence has changed people's living conditions and even living habits at all levels.
But for now, apart from Yingtianfu and Jiangnan, along the coast, this change has not had much impact in the interior.
So those students from the mainland saw Yingtianfu, which looked like a modern industrial city, and the shock was like a person from the Qing Dynasty coming to New York.
At this time, many students began to doubt what they had learned.
If it is said that strange skills and ingenuity can change the world, then is the conformity in Confucianism right or wrong?
Zhu Zhanji's request to add overseas current affairs and mathematics to Chunwei just made some people feel uncomfortable.However, they are not qualified to question it, because as the grandson of Jian Guo, what he said is the golden rule.
Only scholars like them come to accommodate him, it is impossible for a future emperor to accommodate scholars.
However, the more these scholars understand what happened in Ying Tianfu, the more confused they become, and the more subversive they become.
Because this completely overthrows what they have always believed to be correct.
But now all of this is grandly placed in front of everyone, everyone can see it, but no one can find anything wrong.
You say that the water wheel is a wonderful skill, but the water wheel improves people's manual operation, saves manpower, and can produce more cloth.
You say that the steam engine is a strange skill, but the spittle of the people of Yingtianfu can drown you.The people of Yingtian Mansion, including the ministers of civil and military affairs, and the professors of Guozijian, are all looking forward to the opening of the train in late February.
Not to mention the firearms made with strange skills and ingenuity changed the passivity of the Ming people in front of the grassland people.In the past few years, even if Daming won every battle, everyone still felt worried.
Those prairie people came and went without a trace, and Da Ming could only be beaten passively every time.But now, even children know that because of the muskets, those prairie people have succumbed.
No one sees the grassland people, whose numbers are more than ten times smaller, as a threat.
There is also the steamboat that can sail without sails. Many students who went to Beijing for exams along the Yangtze River and canals have experienced the convenience of this new boat.
Ships that can sail without manpower will no longer need trackers in the canals in the future, and more people will be free from hard labor. Isn’t this a great achievement?
All these tricks and tricks have the power to change the world, so why is it not important?
In fact, these great Confucian scholars are also considering these issues.
They are more aware of the power of these strange techniques than these students, and they also know the power of this power.They are powerless to stop it, so now more consideration is given to how to adapt Confucianism to this change.
Confucianism has been changing since ancient times, especially since Song Dacheng, there has been no change at all in the past 200 years.
