[comprehensive] mother instrument world

In fact, Shu Yun is not only planning to open a girls' school, Shu Yun is already planning to open a technical school!There are too many craftsmen needed now, and in the future, a large number of people will have to be sent to seal the country with a group of princes. If they dare not enter and train people, there will be not enough people to turn back!In fact, due to the increase in demand among the people, some craftsmen have already started their own workshops. The main thing is to recruit apprentices, teach them by themselves, and then the apprentices are responsible for the work. However, correspondingly, in order to prevent the apprentices from leaving after learning, they become masters. Yes, you have to keep a hand!

As for Shu Yun, he hated this kind of custom, and he all kept his hands on it. Who would bring forth the new from the old?However, it is also necessary to protect technological innovation, so the patent law must also be worked out.

Fortunately, as long as Shu Yun told Zhu Yuanzhang about these things, he was also an easy-going character, and soon he had a plan.Zhu Yuanzhang is no longer the person who only knew how to look at the world with the thinking of a peasant. The books and knowledge he studies now have become more complicated, and he even started to study "Book of Changes". If you are poor, you will change, if you change, you will be successful, and if you are general, you will be long-term."

In other words, in a sense, Zhu Yuanzhang has become a philosopher. The world is constantly changing, and he can't think about problems with old eyes. What he needs to do is to grasp the key context of these changes and let them Change in the direction you want.

Zhu Yuanzhang is very happy to do this kind of thing now, or in other words, breaking the original order is a very happy thing for Zhu Yuanzhang.

After reading many history books with Shu Yun, Zhu Yuanzhang has now discovered that it seems that since a long time ago, the Central Plains has entered a strange circle. At the end of a dynasty, no matter how hard the emperor tries to govern, the entire dynasty will begin to collapse. As for the so-called The ZTE is often also because of a war in the middle that caused a large reduction in population and a reshuffle of the powerful.It can be said that the starting point of every prosperous age is a heart-wrenching chaos.This is all because the country of this era relies too heavily on farming. When the population multiplies to a certain extent and the land is merged to a certain extent, the rich will be connected with each other, and the poor will have no place to stand!Not only that, the resources occupied by the upper class are not only land and food, but also important population. The poor can't afford to marry a daughter-in-law at all, and the rich have slaves at home, and they also dislike the poor for dirtying their eyes.

Under such circumstances, it is simply impossible for the country to remain in chaos.Therefore, on the one hand, it is necessary to restrict land mergers, and on the other hand, it is necessary to liberate labor from the land!And for this, they have to see enough benefits!

Like now, most people have their own land, even those who live in cities and towns. They still use the land as their foundation, and only go to the workshop to work in the slack season.The proportion of real professional craftsmen is still very small nowadays, and many people still adhere to the simple concept that land is the most valuable!

What Zhu Yuanzhang and Shu Yun need to do is to break their inherent concepts and tell them that besides farming, you have many paths to go!As long as people have hope, they will not go to a dead end!

Shu Yun hopes that Daming will become a country composed of the middle class, rather than a country where a few rich people occupy most of the resources. Then, many things must be set now.

Fortunately, the Central Plains was tossed so hard by the Yuan court that the Confucian scholars who were originally the mainstream did not have enough voice. Therefore, the pressure for reform has also become much lighter. Those with vested interests will still instinctively object, because they can't adapt to these things, so they want to smash the pot!

Zhu Yuanzhang is not used to their stinking problems. To be honest, since some officials who were originally from the military came up, those civil officials have actually stopped a lot, because they found that they are not irreplaceable!Because these officials were doing grassroots work at the beginning, they actually knew more about many details, and they were more flexible in doing things. To put it bluntly, they knew better about some tricks at the grassroots level.So much so that, at the local level, these officials who have never participated in the imperial examination have the upper hand.

Don't look at the local officials who will automatically be half a level shorter when they arrive in the capital. In fact, in a place like the capital, if the plaque of a restaurant falls and hits ten people, at least nine of them are officials, and one of them may be the noble family. Therefore, Beijing officials sound noble, but in fact, in terms of real power, they may not be comparable to local officials.A county magistrate can be called Bailihou below, and in the capital, let alone the seventh rank, even the fifth rank is nothing. It's a character!

The problem is that Zhu Yuanzhang won the world immediately, and then, in order to balance the court, he directly put a group of nobles who had made great contributions when he conquered the world. Civil officials are facing these When you were noble, even if you felt vulgar in your heart, you dare not speak nonsense!The merits of others are made with real swords and guns. As for the civil servants in the court, except for a small number of them who responded to the call when Zhu Yuanzhang defeated Yingtian, the others came later. Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was already unstoppable, Only then did he follow up timidly.Even if the nobles had been with Chen Youliang and Zhang Shicheng's surrenders at the beginning, they were considered heroes who resisted the Yuan court. Later, during the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, they also made great military exploits. No more!

Under such circumstances, as long as the civil servants are not stupid, they will definitely not dare to diss those nobles casually. Even if they seize something, they must pay attention to impeachment. I can only bang on the trivial sections!

Today's society is changing too fast, and it is really difficult for these civil servants who have long been accustomed to the old rules to adapt, but they themselves have many weaknesses. Let's put it this way, the biggest weakness of civil servants lies in their true morality. The level is not good enough for their daily language, and they praise themselves too much, but they can't do it by themselves. Many things can't be studied at all. The previous system is very beneficial to them. Can deceive superiors and conceal inferiors, harm the public and benefit private interests, implement the so-called human way, harm the inadequacies and give in excess.

But now, industry and commerce are beginning to prevail. In fact, most of the original big businessmen need to rely on the power of the officialdom, because industries with real huge profits have thresholds. Once you're in, you can't even smell it outside!The more typical one is the salt industry. Since the Han Dynasty began to specialize in salt and iron, throughout the dynasties, most of the time, salt profit has been the bulk of fiscal revenue.But for those who can do this job, if it doesn't matter on the official level, they will be played to death without knowing what's going on.In addition to the nature of business, it is nothing more than buying low and selling high, the transportation cost in the middle is quite exaggerated, and naturally it has to be arranged everywhere along the way.

But now, the industry and commerce that Daming encourages is not the kind of big businessmen, but encourages small and medium businessmen, as well as those skilled and capable factory owners.Many taxes that were originally reduced to a tool for officials in various places to collect money were directly abolished, and taxes were only collected at the terminal, which put the initiative in the hands of the imperial court, reduced administrative costs, and increased the fiscal revenue of the imperial court. For small and medium-sized businessmen and factory owners who don't have official backing, they can save a lot of trouble in management. Even if the terminal tax rate is a little higher, it is actually more cost-effective for them.

There are more and more new affairs, these civil servants can't keep up with the times at all, and some old-fashioned people are criticizing some strange tricks and tricks. The most important thing is that these so-called tricks and tricks have affected their interests!When everyone's productivity level is relatively low, people like them who have mastered a large amount of production materials can naturally obtain the greatest benefits, but now they are falling behind and cannot catch up. Competitors in their eyes!

It's a pity that Zhu Yuanzhang is not an emperor who can be easily fooled by these civil officials. He has his own ideas and scoffs at the rhetoric of those civil officials. And so on, but Zhu Yuanzhang felt that this may not be a bad thing!What's more, there is a saying that if a scholar rebels, he can't succeed in ten years!The more things one knows, the more people will look forward and backward.Furthermore, if the common people can live comfortably, why would they rebel?If everything was restored to the way it was before, as these civil officials said, then it would be a rebellion!

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't bother to listen to these civil servants' babbling. If it wasn't for the reform of the imperial examination system that needed to be implemented slowly and not too intensely, there would not be many people who could completely replace these civil servants. Zhu Yuanzhang wished he could kick them all out of court.

Zhu Yuanzhang really wanted to find a place to try it out and see if the country would not be able to govern if these civil servants were not used!

Then, the opportunity came!

Wang Baobao is dead!

In fact, Wang Baobao is a little younger than Zhu Yuanzhang, but he has been burdened too much and the pressure is too great these years.Wang Baobao is devoted to Beiyuan wholeheartedly, but Beiyuan is still intriguing, not only cannot provide enough support for Wang Baobao, but even drags his feet.

Wang Baobao's ability to survive until now is already very remarkable!Since he was an adult, he has been tossing and turning on the battlefield, almost never resting, and his body is not made of iron.If he is still in the Central Plains now, then in fact, it is better to say that the medical level of the Central Plains is still acceptable!But the situation on the grassland is different. So far, some witch doctors' methods are still popular on the grassland. Even they have captured doctors from the Central Plains, but it's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. If there is less, it will not be of much benefit to Wang Baobao's body.Later, Wang Baobao's body was basically supported by the Korean ginseng he had accumulated before.The problem is that, later on, Wang Baobao was already in a state of inadequacy. The more Korean ginseng he ate, the more he would lose his life.

Under such circumstances, Wang Baobao's death is also a very natural thing, earlier than Jin Yiwei's guess.

Fortunately, Daming had already prepared a plan. As soon as the news of Wang Baobao's death came, Zhu Yuanzhang made a plan. He was going to use Wang Mingzhu's card to take over most of Wang Bao's remaining forces. There must be some people who would rather be the head of a chicken than the queen of a cow!

When Wang Mingzhu heard the news of Wang Baobao's death, she was stunned. In fact, she didn't know Wang Baobao's physical condition. Before, Wang Baobao would never reveal her weakness to her subordinates and relatives. Before he was captured, Wang Baobao actually had a problem with his health?

Zhu Xi stood at the door of Wang Mingzhu's boudoir, hesitated for a long time, and then walked in, looked at Wang Mingzhu who was lying at his desk sadly, and said hesitantly: "Well, Mingzhu, don't be too sad!"

After the marriage between Wang Mingzhu and Zhu Yu was finalized, the exchanges between the two increased. No one would say that unmarried couples should not meet each other, especially the people around Wang Mingzhu. The relationship is deep.The ass decides the head, Wang Mingzhu is their master now, but in the future, it is Zhu Xi who can really decide the fate of them and even their relatives on the grassland.Under such circumstances, if Zhu Xi and Wang Mingzhu can have a deeper friendship, then it is not a bad thing for the grassland.

The peoples on the prairie are actually very practical, things have come to this point, for the current Daming, resistance is meaningless, it is nothing but sacrifice!Daming is now strong, and surrendering to Daming is not something unacceptable to the tribes on the grassland. Even if it is a temporary surrender, it is good for them to breathe.

Moreover, a Daming prince who is married to a Mongolian lady is now considered one of his own in the eyes of these Mongolians!Since he is one of his own, it is not ashamed to bow his head for a while!

People's hearts are fleshy. Wang Mingzhu is actually a cuter girl. After getting in touch with her a lot, Zhu Xi naturally has a certain feeling for her. Therefore, after hearing the news of Wang Baobao's death, Zhu Xi hesitated for a long time. Finally decided to come and comfort the girl.

Wang Mingzhu heard Zhu Xi's comfort, but felt bitter in her heart, and cried louder.What's the matter?In Wang Mingzhu's view, Wang Baobao's death was actually related to Daming's side. After all, if the two sides hadn't been fighting all the time, how could Wang Baobao have accumulated heavy injuries and died young?But I want to marry the enemy's son, and I have to accept the enemy's comfort, what is the difference between this and the crocodile's tears!

It's just that Wang Mingzhu herself is quite smart, and she actually understands better that staying here now is actually a compromise of her elder brother. In fact, her elder brother has long since lost confidence in Yuan Ting's future. Daming came here to seek protection for himself!Thinking of this, Wang Mingzhu was so sad that she could hardly speak.

No matter how beautiful a girl is, when she is really sad, she is not really good-looking. Fortunately, Wang Mingzhu didn't care to put on makeup before, so there was no joke about her makeup being washed away by tears, but now her eyes are swollen. There was also some snot running down his nose, and he looked a bit embarrassed.

Zhu Xi was stunned, and felt some pity in his heart. He said clumsily: "Well, I actually admire your brother very much. I, um, um, even though your brother is gone, But I won't bully you, no, I mean, you still have me, I will protect you!"

Wang Mingzhu was stunned by Zhu Xi's incoherent speech, and then she was in a daze for a while, and finally regained her composure. She pursed her lips, wiped her tears with the back of her hand, and then said hoarsely: "I want to go back to the grassland. !"

Seeing Wang Mingzhu's resolute expression, Zhu Xi was silent for a while, and then said, "Okay, I'll take you to the grassland!"

The two are actually not on the same channel. What Wang Mingzhu meant was that she wanted to go back and see her brother for the last time, while what Zhu Xi meant was very simple. I can take you to live on the grassland for the rest of my life. It will be our home from now on!

However, it was just such a sentence that really moved Wang Mingzhu's heart!

After Zhu Yu went back, he went directly to Zhu Yuanzhang, saying that he was ready to establish his own state.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't laugh or cry about this, but Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly thought that this didn't seem to be a bad thing.However, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't intend to give a bad start to the children below, so he said directly: "You don't even have a real team now. If you go to establish a feudal country, why don't you let the army of Ming Dynasty help you take down the place, and then Did you pick up ready-made ones?"

Zhu Yu was stunned. He really didn't think so much. He didn't feel depressed until Zhu Yuanzhang mentioned it. That's right, although he can't be said to be poor and white now, he is almost the same. It's not as good as my daughter-in-law who has never been married!So, what should we do about this matter?

Zhu Xi went back with a sad face, but the next day, Wang Mingzhu took the initiative to find him, in order to ask when he could go to the grassland.

Zhu Xing worriedly told Wang Mingzhu about the predicament she was facing now. Wang Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly said: "Have you forgotten my dowry?"

Wang Mingzhu had already figured it out the night before, the matter had reached this point, and many things were irreversible.Speaking of hatred, in fact, Wang Mingzhu hated the Beiyuan royal court even more.Wang Mingzhu is not a simple girl in a boudoir. Although her parents are Mongolian nobles with a relatively deep degree of Sinicization, they lived with her uncle since she was a child, and she was exposed to some things in the Mongolian army. Wang Baobao wandered all the way, saw many things, and knew a lot.

Daming and Wang Baobao belonged to two opposing sides. Even if Wang Baobao died on the battlefield, it was a matter of course. However, Wang Baobao was loyal to Dayuan, but what did he get in the end?

Wang Mingzhu thought of the current Northern Yuan Emperor, Wang Baobao turned against the Zhizheng Emperor because of him, but now this is the situation. Really, what kindness does the Yuan court have to Wang Baobao, a loyal minister?

What's more, Wang Baobao had arranged for Wang Mingzhu's future before, which made Wang Mingzhu feel more grateful for her elder brother, and when thinking of her elder brother's death, she would only feel even more resentful and injustice!

Wang Mingzhu longs for power and wants revenge, but in the current situation, the one she can rely on is her future husband, Zhu Xi!

Therefore, Wang Mingzhu made up her mind that she would help her husband become the new king on the grassland, and she would add fire to the destruction of that decaying royal court.Wang Mingzhu thought very clearly, without Zhu Shi, she would never even think about stepping on the grassland in her life, but with Zhu Shi, plus those resources that belonged to her in name, the situation would be different!

The women on the prairie are different from the women in the Central Plains. The hostess has considerable authority. Now that Wang Mingzhu has figured it out, she will naturally make corresponding efforts for it, and in the future, she will naturally reap sweet fruits.

With Wang Mingzhu's words, Wang Baobao was still in the hot filial piety, and Zhu Xi married Wang Mingzhu directly. Then, Daming presented the so-called evidence that the Northern Yuan court was afraid of Wang Baobao's meritorious service and murdered Wang Baobao. As Wang Baobao's brother-in-law, the person who brought Wang Mingzhu as a dowry, and his own personal guards, and he used a gold vein in Wang Mingzhu's nominal dowry as collateral to hire a team of Ming troops. After buying a lot of weapons, I immediately set off aggressively to seek revenge on my so-called enemies!

Daming said that Wang Baobao was murdered by the Northern Yuan royal court, so Wang Baobao must have been murdered. The Northern Yuan royal court wanted to distinguish, but who would listen?Anyway, it just needs a similar reason, and no one cares whether this reason is tenable or not. Anyway, there will be a decisive battle between the two countries sooner or later, and now it is just ahead of time.

Daming seized the opportunity very coincidentally. Wang Baobao's death did bring a lot of disturbances in the grassland. Jin Yiwei secretly fanned the flames. Some people really suspected that Wang Baobao's death was abnormal and had something to do with Wang Ting.You know, after Meng Yuan entered the customs, due to various reasons, the life expectancy of each person has increased a lot, especially for those Mongolian nobles. Wang Baobao is a famous general with extraordinary martial arts. He looked very strong before. In the end, if you say that you die, you will die, and if you say that there is nothing tricky in it, who will believe it!As a result, many tribes felt sad for the death of the rabbit and the fox, and each of them became more and more alienated from the royal court.

As for Wang Baobao's subordinates, they are also beginning to split now, and many of them have already planned to surrender, and some people are thinking of taking advantage of Wang Baobao's death and taking over the power that Wang Bao retained. It can also occupy a large grassland, and it can be a good official position!

The news that Zhu Yu and Wang Mingzhu came with the army undoubtedly gave these dissidents a head-on blow. They have fought against the Ming army more times. Even the warriors among them know that the Ming army is terrible. Bingfeng, they are not happy no matter what, but they are not willing to stay, Wang Mingzhu is just a yellow-haired girl, the so-called King of Qin in the Ming Dynasty is now just a brat, wouldn't it be too unreasonable to bow to them up?

With this kind of thinking, these people with different intentions finally had no time to win people's hearts, so they slipped away quietly first, while the others who stayed were moved in their hearts.They are all surrenders. Surrendering to Daming is probably internal attachment, and the prince who surrendered, who married Wang Mingzhu, wanted to establish a feudal state on the grassland. Or are they Mongolian nobles?Thinking about it this way, their power might not only not shrink, but even increase!

Because Wang Baobao fought against the Ming army all the year round, his territory was directly bordered by Ming Dynasty. Therefore, Zhu Xi and his army arrived very smoothly along the way, and they hardly encountered any obstacles along the way. The tribes on the way almost died Feed the pot, welcome Master Wang!

Zhu Xi also felt that things were going well, but, in fact, he didn't really trust these Mongolian nobles who seemed to be very obedient. Wang Baobao's bones were not cold, so they surrendered just like that. The reason here was naturally for their own interests. I can't believe that before Wang Baobao died, he would repent and let them surrender to Daming!

But it doesn't matter. Although it is the first time for Zhu Yu to lead the army, he is really talented in this. Besides, there are people around him to help him make suggestions. After all, no matter how big-hearted Zhu Yuanzhang is, he can't really What's more, let a child who is not yet an adult run over to host the battle against Bei Yuan.No matter what, you have to arrange more people around Zhu Xi. Although they are all in the name of mercenaries, in fact, Zhu Xi only has command power in name.

Zhu Xi can command, that is, his personal guards, and the people under Wang Mingzhu's subordinates, and these nobles, since they want to rely on him, Zhu Xi, they have to have a nomination certificate anyway, so Zhu Xi pondered, then In the next battle, these nobles have to send troops, otherwise, just thinking about the benefits, how can it be possible to take advantage of it, he is not a philanthropist!

Of course, before that, Zhu Xing still has other things to do. For example, since these nobles have surrendered, then, let’s make a household of Qimin first!

The follow-up support came soon, together with the first batch of immigrants. To be honest, these immigrants really don’t have many good ones. There was an agreement with the imperial court before, and most of them who are willing to immigrate after reaching adulthood have not yet reached adulthood. Therefore, many of this group of immigrants are actually criminals from various places, and some people are attracted by the rewards offered by the imperial court!These are actually a minority, because most people have concerns, not to mention, as long as they are willing to work, they can live anywhere, who is free to go to the grassland?Therefore, those who came were actually people from places where industry and commerce were underdeveloped and the land was relatively barren. People like this would come one after another in the future.

The other ones are not immigrants, but a group of businessmen who came here after hearing the news. They are here to do business.What's more, the court can send a prince out, so it can be seen that this place is not too dangerous, the emperor's son is much more valuable than other people!

Therefore, in just a short period of time, the grassland that Wang Baobao has managed for a long time has changed its appearance.

Materials from the Central Plains built a solid camp here. Most of the original cattle and sheep were raised in captivity, the pasture was re-divided, and a large amount of pasture was harvested to make silage fodder. It is said that new crops will be sown soon. Forage grass seeds, the root system of new grass seeds is more developed, and the pasture grown will be more suitable for the taste of cattle and sheep.

Merchants use tea bricks, salt, cloth, iron pots and other things to exchange various commodities with the herdsmen. When they come over, these private caravans can only eat leftovers!

The reason why the caravan from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came slowly was because they needed to mobilize too many supplies. Since this will be Zhu Xi's feudal state in the future, even though it was originally his wife's dowry in name, it sounds a bit like eating Soft food, but anyone with a brain knows that without relying on Daming, for Wang Mingzhu, this place is just a dowry in name. Zhu!

Since it is already the starting point of Zhu Xing's feudal kingdom, it is naturally necessary to run it well.Naturally, the grassland in the future cannot be like it is now. As long as it is done well, this place can completely become the south of the Yangtze River in the future!Of course, this will take time and sufficient resources.

Originally, the Yuan court had already started to build cities on the grasslands, but compared to the Central Plains, which had fully built its infrastructure capabilities, their level of city building was much worse. The so-called cities on the grasslands were really nothing fancy, with all kinds of facilities. imperfect.

The caravan and craftsmen sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs quickly designed a set of drawings according to the situation, and then began to issue large orders. Suddenly, this place named Pearl City was like a sophisticated Like a machine, it started to run at full capacity.

That's right, this place is named Mingzhu City, and Zhu Yu doesn't plan to build a capital here, which will give him a subtle feeling of being a soft meal. Of course, as Wang Mingzhu's dowry, this place can be used as a companion capital and a palace in the future.

However, as an accompanying capital, as a temporary palace, it also needs large-scale construction. People from the Ministry of Internal Affairs will not provide assistance for free. For this reason, Zhu Yu owes a large amount of low-interest loans. Fortunately, the resources on the grassland It is really rich. Originally, there were some exposed gold mines. Now, coal mines, iron ore and copper mines have been discovered.

Compared with the Central Plains, these minerals on the grassland are much easier to mine. At least it is not a mountainous place, and the ore can be dug out by digging a little. Therefore, camps have also been established near the minerals.

According to the domestic business model of the Ming Dynasty, the businessmen who heard the news ran over almost overnight, took their own talents to evaluate the scale of the mines, and then began to raise placards to bid for the mining rights of these mines first.

Zhu Xi had no sense of reality for a while, because he could only use a small part of the money here, and he had already mortgaged the rest. For example, now, the Ming army actually needs to pay for the food and drink here.

This made Zhu Xi, who was not very sensitive to money, now dreamed that he owed a whole lot of debt. At the beginning, he was a little worried that he would not be able to pay it back, but then he broke it!Among other things, he just wanted to understand this point, that is, his parents had already invested so much, so he would never be allowed to fail!

Zhu Yu was overwhelmed by the increasing debts day by day, and he was calm everywhere, even confident. It took less than a month to experience it, but Wang Mingzhu was much more nervous. You know, all the mortgages are now The wealth in her dowry, therefore, Wang Mingzhu has already started to rush to send troops to rob other people's pastures, otherwise, when will I get it back!

Of course, correspondingly, Wang Mingzhu has also discovered the horror of Daming. It seems that Daming did not force the herdsmen to do anything, but the things they brought over have already had a serious impact on the herdsmen. These herdsmen are no longer interested in grazing. They just want to earn money in exchange for warm woolen coats, soft and warm blankets, durable iron pots, and all kinds of good things that dazzle them.

In addition, those people from the Central Plains have begun to teach these herdsmen how to clean wool, how to weave it into thread, and how to plant pasture and harvest pasture. There is no need to graze. The cattle and sheep only need to be raised in captivity, and then directly fed to them. Processed feed will do.

Shu Yun has already decided to see if he can import some cold-resistant crops that don't require much rain from Europe, and then plant grass and grain in rotation on the grassland.There are many crops suitable for this latitude climate in later generations, but now, those crops need to be domesticated for some years.For example, in the future, it is best to plant alfalfa, beans, and some cold-resistant food crops or cash crops on the grassland.

But for now, it is better to plant alfalfa first, and then find a way to curb the desertification of the grassland. When Zhu Yu's territory expands to Mobei in the future, Mobei can consider planting more cold-resistant and drought-resistant shrubs. To prevent wind and sand from going south, after a few decades, the grasslands and even the south of the Great Wall will almost never be affected by sandstorms.

Mingzhu City is under vigorous construction. Over there, under the instigation of Wang Mingzhu, Zhu Xi is actually a bit overwhelmed by the daily consumption of a large amount of supplies. Therefore, after the detailed military report from Jinyiwei, Zhu Xi Then they led the army and began to expand.

If we say that in the past, when the Central Plains attacked the grassland, they needed to attack various tribes, but after thinking about ruling the grassland, Zhu Xi's actions here are much simpler. It doesn't matter if they can't find a tribe, just find a suitable one. place, you can circle the place first, and then, this is your own territory.

The craftsmen who followed behind would use local materials, burn bricks, and build some bastions with the soil and cement brought over, and then leave one person to garrison before they can move on.

The tribes on the prairie were also very desperate when they met Zhu Yu and the others who were so careless. They had long been convinced that it was impossible to get assistance from the royal court, but they were a little timid to face the attack of the Ming army. Can find a way to migrate.The problem is that the grassland is big or small, but it is actually suitable for grazing, and there are only so many places suitable for camping. Things like migration can’t be fast. After all, you have to bring all your belongings, otherwise, even if If a new place is found, the tribe will also lose due to the lack of tents to shelter from the wind and not enough cattle and sheep.

The problem is that the Ming army built bastions everywhere. This thing is simply a bug. There are not many people in it, but it takes ten times as much power as Shenzhen and dozens of times to capture the bastions. The problem is, the people inside the bastions People are not stupid, they have enough firearms in their hands, and some weird weapons, so after trying it once, no one wants to touch this kind of disgusting stuff, which also led to the fact that these tribes can migrate There are fewer and fewer places!

Some small tribes couldn't take it anymore, so they didn't run away at all, just find any place with a bastion, and surrender!And some larger tribes were still a little unwilling. After thinking about it, they simply went to the royal court. The royal court can't just ignore themselves!

Therefore, just looking for the traces left by the migration of these tribes, the Ming army went to the depths of the grassland smoothly, which is much better than any guide!

Wang Ting is not stupid either, the Ming army is attacking, not only Zhu Yu, but also other troops are waiting nearby, just waiting to catch Wang Ting's people and get a big credit!

The problem is that the situation of the king's court is also stretched. They were not unwilling to support before, but they don't have enough strength now. They sent envoys to seek help from other khans of the khanate, but there is no news yet. Back, because of the blockade and division of the Han people on the grassland, their supplies were also severely affected. In particular, the generation of the Northern Yuan Dynasty was born and raised in the Central Plains. They lived too much in the past. Well, after escaping to the grassland, I couldn't get used to it!

Up to now, people in the royal court are already in panic, especially under the leadership of Zhu Xi.
