The Ming Dynasty has just been exiled and the Luzon system has awakened.

A waistband deliberately left by Jin Yiwei once again made Fanxi angry to the point of vomiting blood. At only 37 years old and in the prime of his life, Fanxi had already turned gray on his temples in just a few months after the rise of the Ming Dynasty.

In the previous life, Brother Nuanxi lived to be 68 years old.

Let alone 68 years old in this life, according to the current development of the situation, whether I can celebrate my 38th birthday is a question.

However, Zhu Heyi has no immediate plans to send troops northward yet, so Nuanxi can rest assured that he can live for two more months.

The next task of the Ming army was to recover the entire area south of the Yangtze River.

Compared with the north where the Tatars are mainly entrenched, the Qing army in the south is weak and has no support. In this case, these people can be used to train the new soldiers.

On the Japanese side, in order to strengthen the military strength of the Satsuma Domain, Zhu Hebu replaced all the 15000 Beggar's Edition Mini rifles previously seized from the Manqing, packed them and sent them to the Satsuma Domain on a ship.

同时还会有一个装备了1000支90式步枪，12挺91型火神炮，12门82毫米迫击炮，6辆神火飞鸦发射车的加强团一同前往萨摩藩。

They will replace the original garrison troops and serve as instructors and combat supervisory troops for the Satsuma feudal puppet army.

Although the current Satsuma feudal puppet army has recruited more than 6000 people, its weapons and equipment are still completely in the cold weapon era.

It is unrealistic to expect these dwarves to overthrow the shogunate army with the pile of rags in their hands, so it is imperative to strengthen their armaments.

In addition, Satsuma Domain still has a problem, that is, there are too few young people of school age.

Although the Satsuma Domain is quite large, its population is too small because it is mostly mountainous. The total population of the entire jurisdiction is only over [-].

Excluding the more than 3 people who were shelled by the Ming army and slaughtered by the foreign legions in the previous war, and excluding the elderly, women and children, there were not many people who could be recruited into the army.

According to Zhu Heyi's estimation, the Satsuma Domain can gather 2 troops at its limit, but this can only be achieved by relaxing the age limit for recruitment.

There were not enough people, so Emperor Zhu immediately thought of another good dog of the Ming Dynasty, North Korea!

There is no one in Satsuma, but there is one in North Korea!

In fact, the relationship between North Korea and the Japanese can be called a feud. Compared with the invasion of the coastal areas of the Ming Dynasty by Japanese pirates, the invasion of North Korea by Japanese pirates was much more serious, and it can even be said that it lasted throughout the history of the peninsula.

Although except for the time of Toyosei Hideyoshi, the level of national subjugation was not reached at other times, but the people in the entire southern coastal area were always shrouded in the shadow of death caused by Japanese pirates.

The reason why North Korea established its navy was to deal with these Japanese pirates.

Under such circumstances, it is reasonable and reasonable to form a North Korean servant army to deal with the Japanese!

This Korean army has an initial capacity of 2 people, and the number of troops will continue to expand in proportion to the Satsuma Domain in the future.

The Korean Army will be the same as the Satsuma clan servant army, commanded by Ming army generals and equipped with Mini rifles, and the military pay will be responsible for the Korean court.

As for whether King Zhongxiao Li Yintong agrees?

Emperor Zhu Da had no intention of asking him for his opinion. Since they were all kings of loyalty and filial piety, what Emperor Ming Ming said would be what he said.

……

After the wedding, Zhu Hechi did not indulge in the gentle countryside. After arranging the next strategic direction of the Ming army, he took his four newlyweds to Dingtian Mansion by plane.

Because the Ming Dynasty, and even the first railway in the world is about to start operation.

How could the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty not attend such an occasion?

The first operating railway in the Ming Dynasty is not too long. It starts from Xinjing and ends at Yongxing County, with a total length of 53 kilometers.

Of course, more than 30 indigenous people were invested, dozens of people died, and it took more than four months to lay far more than 53 kilometers of railway tracks.

The main body of this railway line has actually been laid all the way north to Yi'an County, with a total length of 600 kilometers. (Pacific Railway, Chinese workers set a world record of laying 12 kilometers of track in 16.41 hours)

However, although the line to the north of Yongxing County has been generally laid, there are still some areas where bridges and mountain digging are still needed, which has not yet been completed. In addition, the infrastructure is still blank, so only these 53 kilometers of lines are being trialled this time.

"Your Majesty, why don't we let this old slave take a test ride first?"

After the ribbon-cutting event, the people who had grabbed the tickets excitedly started boarding the train, while Wang Chen looked at the prone steel beast on the track and said with some hesitation.

For Wang Chen, trains are definitely a new thing, and he instinctively has a sense of crisis for these new things.

Now that the emperor plans to take the empress and concubine on this train, he will inevitably start to worry about Zhu Heyi again.

If something goes wrong, that's okay!

But Zhu Heyi didn't feel anything about it.

Compared with cars and airplanes, trains are considered by Emperor Zhu Da to be the safest means of transportation.

The former has constant accidents and constant casualties, while the latter has not many accidents, but once an accident occurs, it is basically gone.

Although there are train accidents, they are mostly caused by man-made sabotage and geological disasters. Of course, there are also some wiring errors that cause two cars to collide.

But today's railway lines do not have the complicated railway network of later generations. There are only two railway tracks in total, and there is no way to collide with each other.

And how fast can this old steam locomotive go?Even if the train derails, there will be no serious casualties.

Moreover, Zhu Heyi still has great confidence in the railway engineers recruited by the system.

"Uncle Wang, don't worry, it'll be fine."

Zhu Heyi responded with a smile, and then he led everyone to board the No. 1 carriage.

Wang Chen had no choice but to follow.

The carriage Zhu Heyi was in was a special carriage for the royal family, and the interior decoration was naturally very different from that of ordinary carriages.

As soon as the women boarded the train, they curiously looked at the surrounding interiors.

Zhu Heyi just took a brief look and found a seat by the window and sat down.

It’s really a novel experience to travel back in time to the 17th century and ride a train!

After waiting for more than ten minutes, after all the passengers in the rear carriage boarded the train, a long whistle sounded and the train began to move slowly.

The train picked up speed quite quickly. After a few minutes, it reached its full approved speed, which was almost 40 kilometers per hour.

In later generations, even a green car would be able to beat it by a few blocks at such a speed, but it is completely sufficient now.

In the past, people could only walk from Xinjing to Yongxing County by horse-drawn carriage. Although the cement road had already been opened, it still took nearly three hours to go by horse-drawn carriage. This was assuming there were no problems on the road. .

Now this time has been directly shortened to more than an hour.

Moreover, a carriage can pull up to 6 people at a time, while a train can pull hundreds of people at a time.

The horsepower of the old-fashioned steam locomotive that Zhu Heyi bought from the Miracle Market was naturally inferior to those of later generations.

It can only carry 8 carriages at a time, two of which are set as first-class carriages, carrying 50 people, and the remaining 6 carriages are ordinary carriages, carrying 100 people.

The approved full capacity of a train is 700 passengers, which is far lower than the passenger capacity of later trains, but for now, this passenger capacity is enough.

……

"Oh my God! It's so fast!"

"Look, we're already at the three-way intersection!"

"Oh God, Your Majesty has created a miracle again!"...

In the exclusive royal carriage No. [-], Emperor Zhu Da was still thinking about whether to recruit a group of indigenous people, Japanese people, or Koreans to build domestic railways.

The passengers in the next few carriages who were lucky enough to get tickets had already started shouting.

Taking a train for the first time, the passengers found it difficult to control their emotions as they looked out the window at the scenery flying backwards.

Although His Majesty the Emperor has brought surprises to them time and time again, every time new things appear, their knowledge is always refreshed again and again.

Their children in school often come back and say that everything should be done scientifically.

But they feel more and more that it is precisely because of His Majesty and the miracles His Majesty brought that this kind of science is possible.

After all, the novel things they had seen in the first half of their lives were far less than what they had seen in the past few months.
