For Xu Da, the first thing that came to his mind was whether Mongolia had produced a figure like Ming.

But this thought was immediately extinguished by him, because he saw the vast country with a strange name.

This Mongolia was like a... pimple between the Soviet Union and China.

However, although the light curtain was magical, what Xu Da saw was only less than a moment.

Therefore, although he was trying to think about the future situation rationally, he still felt a huge sense of alienation instinctively. For example, Li Shanchang next to him almost frowned, obviously trying to understand the colorful and huge map in front of him.

Xu Da thought for a while, and then looked at His Majesty, who was obviously the most familiar with the light curtain.

Zhu Yuanzhang had stood up again. This was the first time he had seen the distribution of national borders in the future. However, seeing the doubt in Xu Da's eyes and the bewildered faces of other ministers, he pondered for a while and told the emperor what he knew:

"The Portuguese country on the far west of the sea is good at maritime affairs."

The route of the spread of "Xiyuan Jilu" was still clearly shown on the map of the future, and after the emperor pointed it out, everyone saw the inconspicuous Portuguese country.

"The light curtain had said before that thirty years after Temujin died of illness, Portugal sent envoys to China. After returning home, they said that Temujin was also killed by lightning, which was known to the future generations."

"Wu Hou also informed that it took only three hundred years for Portugal to send envoys to invade the east."

"Three hundred years? Isn't that two hundred years after my Ming Dynasty?"

Zhu Biao made the same exclamation when Zhu Yuanzhang heard it at that time, and this news was told by Wu Hou, so he didn't have any doubts.

"No wonder Dad ordered to collect the sea charts of the Hu Yuan Dynasty, and to search and organize shipyards and shipbuilders everywhere. I thought it was to deal with the Japanese invasion, but it turned out to be a precautionary measure."

The emperor smiled a little more and nodded:

"The Hu Yuan Dynasty must be destroyed, and the navy must be managed. Only in this way can we not only deal with the Japanese invasion, but also guard against the sea pirates in the far west."

He even breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. After all, it seemed that Portugal did not have strong ships and powerful guns as he had worried before.

After all, if the navy was really unmatched, it could just force the country to do whatever it wanted. Why would it take a roundabout way and cooperate with the Japanese pirates like Toyotomi Hideyoshi?

And seeing that Japan could win a great victory with the firearm bird gun provided by the Portuguese, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of urgency in his heart.

While Emperor Ming was still in deep thought, Li Wenzhong had already jumped out impatiently:

"Your Majesty is wise! I am willing to take the responsibility and promote the power of the Ming Dynasty to the outside world and eliminate the invaders on the border!"

Looking at his nephew carefully, he remembered the sense of urgency just now, and then a thought that was only in its infancy emerged:

"The matter of pacifying the sea cannot be done overnight."

"If Baoer wants to complete this feat, he might as well learn firearms first, so that it can..."

Thinking of the scene of hundreds of cannons blazing in the sky and overturning the earth in the future, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that this was a bit extravagant, so he shook his head and said:

"If it can make it more suitable for placing ships and benefiting naval battles, it will be enough."

...

"You mean, what is presented on this light curtain is the appearance of the world?"

Cao Cao wanted to dismiss what he saw on the light curtain as nonsense, but looking at the way Liu Bei and his handsome adviser frowned and discussed, looking at the way Yunchang stroked his beard and looked carefully, and the few pages of "Xiyuan Jilu" just seen, all showed that this thing was extraordinary.

So Cao Cao shook his head and asked a different question:

"Is this why you discuss every three months?"

"The strong crossbows and other unspeakable things all come from here?"

Zhang Fei shook his head very honestly:

"Some of them were seen directly, and some were researched by military advisors."

"But the content of the light curtain is far more than that... We have also seen your posthumous affairs before."

"Posthumous affairs?"

Cao Cao's heart moved. If Zhang Fei had said this before, he would probably think it was an insult, but now he was really curious.

How would he, Cao Cao, be evaluated by future generations?

"Yes, after death."

Zhang Fei nodded, stretched out his fingers and counted them one by one:

"For example, Meng De, your head was taken for research, your grave was dug up, and your descendants went to your grave to read the anti-traitor manifesto."

Cao Cao:...

"Then, your son was sick, your grandson died early, your great-grandson was killed in the street by the Sima family, and then your Cao family was..."

Zhang Fei's enthusiastic finger counting process was interrupted by Cao Cao's wave:

"Now I am a prisoner, why do you curse me, Zhang Fei?"

Scratching his head, Zhang Fei's eyes were full of sincerity:

"Where did I curse you?"

But Cao Cao had long since stopped buying this. He sneered and simply didn't bother about it. Instead, he looked up and looked at the huge country and sighed:

"This Soviet Union, the vast territory is really..."

He Cao Cao didn't understand the map, but the territory of the Soviet Union was too conspicuous, almost occupying 40% of the sight.

But before Cao Cao finished speaking, he saw this huge territory torn apart.

[The unbreakable alliance was written into a biography for Song Ci, but it eventually came to an end.

Then, the wider war returned to this world and has been burning ever since. ]

Cao Cao stopped talking and watched the huge country disappear into thin air.

The icons representing soldiers also began to frequently enter the map from outside the borders of the map, and entered one country after another.

Several countries with larger territories also had arrows with various meanings pointing directly outside the borders.

As the numbers in the upper left corner continued to advance, the wars rose and fell, but as time slowed down, the western map of the once huge country was rekindled.

[The conflicts between the Slavs can be simply attributed to external and internal factors. The external factors are both well-known and complex, involving the intervention of other countries, color changes, oligarchs selling out their country, etc., which is not what we are going to talk about.

And what we want to briefly review today is naturally the internal factors, that is, the conflicts between the Slavs, and this conflict can also be traced back to the era when Song Ci lived. 】

Cao Cao watched as the number on the upper left corner of the map began to shrink again, and as the number decreased, the huge country on the map returned and suddenly disappeared. Hundreds of countries rose and fell, and finally time stopped again, and what appeared in front of him was a "Mongol Empire" whose territory was not inferior to that of the Soviet Union.

[We have said before that the rise of Genghis Khan was accompanied by the unification of the tribes on the Mongolian Plateau, and the Western Mongolian tribes had more twists and turns in the conquest process.

When conquering the Naiman tribe, the originally surrendered Merkid tribe suddenly rebelled, but in the end the two coalition forces were still defeated by Temujin.

The prince of the Naiman tribe fled west to the Western Liao Kingdom, and eventually became a son-in-law and successfully usurped the country, but was eventually crushed by the Mongolian iron hoof.

The Merkid tribe was more capable of running. After the chief Tokhto'a died in battle, his son Huodu led the remnants to flee west over the Caucasus Mountains, entered the territory of the Russians to seek refuge, and was eventually taken in by the Wulianghatai family of the Kipchak Kingdom.

Subutai followed closely and led his army to the Ural River Basin, trying to negotiate with them to hand over Huodu, but the King of the Kipchak Empire, Yinasi, thought that the Mongols were aggressive and advised Temujin to be magnanimous, which led to Subutai's war with the Kipchak Empire.

Later, because Temujin achieved the destruction of Khwarezm, the first Western Expedition ended. Subutai was ordered to return after achieving partial victory, but the feud between the two sides had already been formed.

After Temujin's death and Ogedei's succession, at the second kurultai, the Mongolian nobles "discussed the eradication and elimination of the remaining rebels", which obviously referred to the Kipchak Empire.

Therefore, the second Mongol Western Expedition started again in 1235.

Because the army was led by Temujin's grandson Batu, the eldest sons of the kings followed the expedition, and those below the ten thousand households also sent their eldest sons to lead the army to participate.

Therefore, this Western Expedition is also called the "Eldest Son Western Expedition". 】
