Chapter 128: Fake is fake
Since Yun Zhao ascended the throne, the entire Yun family has undergone great changes.
As soon as a leaf falls, the extremely constant family of Yun family has begun to change. Then, it will become natural for the world to undergo some changes in this troublesome autumn.
At least, when facing the hajj from small neighboring countries, Yun Zhao was far from showing the joy he deserved.
It is a very glorious thing for an emperor to come to the court. After Emperor Taizong of Tang Li Shimin was respected by Wanbang as the "Tian Khan", even now, there are still literati and poets regard this era as the most glorious moment in the history of the Han Dynasty.
Back then, the eunuch of Sanbao took a giant boat to sea, not for wealth or to declare the majesty of the Ming Dynasty. According to historical records, the ocean-going fleet of eunuchs of Sanbao returned to China, the most they carried were not gold, silver and treasures, nor overseas treasures.
On his fleet, the most numerous were the rustic kings.
The reason why the eunuch of the Three Treasures was willing to give up the precious positions in the fleet to these earth kings was not how valuable these earth kings were, but that the arrival of these earth kings could bring the emperor's majesty to a new level.
When I saw these dark local kings kneeling in front of the emperor under the gaze of countless Han people, shouting long live, the happiness the emperor received was definitely not comparable to that of a little gold, silver and treasure.
Yun Zhao didn't see this. He saw the dark earth king kneeling all over the ground and felt that these people were sent to the wrong place. These fat slaves should have appeared in sugarcane gardens or other plantations. Even if it was a harbor and dock, it would be good to carry goods.
In any case, he should not appear in the palace where he was located behind the People's Palace. He hoped that he would give them some bird feathers, some fish bones, and some rough gems, so he hoped that Yun Zhao could reward them with more things.
Judging from their kneeling etiquette, they seemed to be very proficient in this. Even Yun Yang, who was standing by, could not do this complicated etiquette to such a smooth operation.
Zhu Cunji held his hands and looked at the dark local kings kneeling and bowing to the king while holding hands. He didn't expect these guys to do this.
Zhang Guozhu's face was as dark as ink, Han Lingshan was smiling, Qian Shaoshao lowered his head and looked at the smooth floor without saying a word. Zhou Guoping looked at these little black people who were studying, but she didn't know what she had developed.
After counting for a long time, Yun Zhao finally counted the number of foreign kings who worshiped him. The number was very good, eighteen, which was very auspicious.
After these people finished contributing the gifts, Zhu Cunji kept turning back and reluctantly left the land kings.
After these talents left the hall, Han Lingshan asked with a smile: "It may not be appropriate to send the soil to the northern front line to dig, so why not give it to Han Xiufen?"
Zhou Guoping said: "It should be given to me."
"What do you want these scammers to do?"
Yun Zhao asked strangely.
Zhou Guoping smiled and said, "All the yamen runners in the world are under my control, and it is my responsibility to arrest scammers."
Yun Zhao frowned and said, "What's going on with Zhu Cunji? How could he believe the nonsense of these people?"
Zhang Guozhu said: "It's not that Zhu Cunji is blamed. The emperors in the past did not know that these people were liars. They just wanted to see the scenes, and they just paid some money. There was no need for the Honglu Temple to think about the truth or falsehood.
I will go back and tell Zhu Cunji that he will not do these things again."
Qian Shaoshao whispered: "These scammers are actually understandable. The merchants who brought these scammers to Yushan City are the culprits."
Zhang Guozhu looked at Yun Zhao and said, "Whether to deceive the people in China? Your Majesty himself made his own decisions. If you want to cheat, then follow the previous process and hold a ceremony to let these people go through the process as the merchants teach.
Give the people an illusion of coming to court for thousands of countries, and then give these scammers some things to them, and we just pretend that this has not happened.
If Your Majesty thinks this is a humiliation to you, then hand over these scammers to Zhou Guoping, and those merchants will give you a little money.”
Yun Zhao spread his hands and smiled, saying to Zhang Guozhu: "Did the glory of the Ming Empire come from a group of liars?"
Zhang Guozhu said: "It's just a means. It's already done this in the Song Dynasty. By the Ming Dynasty, although the emperor did not lack respectful vassal states, the number was very small after all, which was not in line with the great demeanor of all countries coming to the dynasty.
Mixing a little sand in the middle can boost the people's enthusiasm. If we look at the results, there is nothing wrong with paying a little money."
Yun Zhao said: "My achievements are all in the Tushan Memorial Hall. There are no more enemies from me. Please come out and let those vassal states see what the consequences of disobeying my orders."
Zhang Guozhu said: "Your Majesty doesn't like the practice of being a king inside and being a saint outside."
Yun Zhao looked at Han Lingshan and said, "Do you think I should treat my own people harshly, and then treat outsiders as gentle as the spring breeze?"
Han Lingshan said: "If Your Majesty does this, I will look down on you."
Qian Shaoshao looked at everyone present and coughed, "I have already arrested the merchants. If I can't take out ten thousand silver dollars, I'm afraid I can't live without the prison in Yushan City.
As for those black soil people, Zhou Guoping seems to be of some use, so let's leave it to her.
Your Majesty, I have many trivial matters in my office, so I will say goodbye."
Qian Shaoshao claimed the crime and left the hall first. He felt that the few people present came and spoke tentatively like a group of fools, and they were so stupid. Everyone was a busy person, and wasting time like this would be a sin.
The person here doesn’t understand, Lantian Royal Court needs to do these things?
The previous dynasties needed all countries to increase the power of the emperor, and the Lantian Imperial Court did not need these powers. If these people were really the earth kings, Yun Zhao would not be satisfied with the little bit of rags they sent. He cared more about whether the land of these earth kings was fertile enough.
This is already the consensus of everyone in this court.
Qian Shaoshao left, and the few people here immediately tacitly stopped mentioning those scammers and merchants.
The army led by Mr. Qinglong has pacified the southwest. Now, Yun Meng has taken part in the southwest army to the land of Jiaozhi, with the excuse of pursuing the Ming bandits.
However, Zhang Bingzhong clearly went to the Ruan tribe territory in the south, but the general Jin Hu under Yun Meng was entrenched in the Zheng tribe territory in the north for a long time and was unwilling to go south.
At this time, Jiaozhi was in a delicate moment of division between the north and the south.
The two major military groups Zheng and Ruan Zhu of the Li Dynasty after Jiaozhi clashed and divided the northern and southern parts of Jiaozhi respectively.
In order to obtain support from Chameng to fight against Zheng Zhu in the north, Lord Ruan tried to repair it with Chameng.
Nguyen Phuyuan married his daughter Princess Yu-chan to the monarch of Chameng.
Chameng also took advantage of the opportunity of the Jiaozhi civil war and set off on his own.
King Po A of Champa once sent troops to Malacca to support the Johor Sultanate to fight against the power of the Portuguese colonists.
At that time, Lord Ruan of Guangnan mainly fought against Lord Zheng of the Northern by cooperating with the Portuguese.
Since the Portuguese governor in the Far East was thrown into a volcano by Han Xiufen, the Portuguese gradually became a vassal of the British. After discussing with Han Xiufen, the British voluntarily gave up all their existence in Jiaozhi. In exchange, Han Xiufen's fleet no longer left the Strait of Malacca and no longer posed a threat to the British who were operating India.
This is a way that both opponents have great benefits.
Han Xiufen believes that before the Lantian army managed Jiaozhi well and before expanding its territory to Malacca, the Lantian fleet should not have disputes with the British in India.
Only when the Lantian army completely controls the southwestern countries was the time when the Lantian fleet left the Strait of Malacca and truly walked into the world.
Therefore, this time, the target of Jinhu's combat was not the Zheng family in the north or the Ruan family in the south, but the Chameng country developed from a group of curly hair and black skin who believed in Brahmanism or Buddhism, and was a rebellion and independent Linyi country in Xianglin County, Rinan County, in the Han Dynasty.
Jiaozhi's situation is very troublesome. If the Jinhu attacks the Ruan tribe, then the Zheng tribe in the north will let go of his prejudice and join forces with the Ruan tribe, even if he joins Zhang Bingzhong, he will first fight back the Jinhu and Yun Meng, and then he will divide the three of them into a higher level.
As a Jiaozhi people who are attacked by the Han people when they have nothing to do, or who attack the Han people for some purpose, they have a natural fear of their powerful neighbors.
Although Zhang Bingzhong did everything he wanted to burn, kill, loot and loot in Jiaozhi, it was obvious that these people were just a group of bandits and would not occupy Jiaozhi for a long time.
Jinhu, Yun Meng and the others are different. As long as they come in, they have no plans to leave again.
The Jiaozhi people have very sufficient experience in resisting the Han people, and these experiences have been accumulated two thousand years ago.
Generally speaking, when fighting against the Han people, the Jiaozhi people will not have any fantasies.
Therefore, the Jiaozhi people used the Golden Tiger to guard against the Jinhu, and Yun Meng's army far exceeded their defense against Zhang Bingzhong.
In this way, Yun Meng and Jinhu attracted a large number of Jiaozhi troops for Zhang Bingzhong. Then, in Jiaozhi territory, Zhang Bingzhong almost did not encounter a few decent resistances, and he was very happy to burn, kill and loot.
"Then take Champa first!"
After carefully measuring the situation of Jiaozhi, Yun Zhao and others decisively gave up using troops to Jiaozhi, but pointed the finger at the Chameng people who were completely different from the Jiaozhi people.
"I want to accumulate experience in fighting war elephants, and I heard that the war elephants in Chameng Country are quite large."
Han Lingshan gave some advice on the map, even if he had summarized the ideas of several people.
"Shi Lang's battle in Java was not as smooth as we expected. The changing climate and rugged roads had a serious test for Shi Lang's march.
Han Xiufen's previous military newspaper clearly stated that without heavy weapons, our army fought against the savages in the jungle without having an overwhelming advantage.
I do not recommend slowly grinding with the Dutch on Java Island. Jinhu and the others must open up land passages as soon as possible and build a fortress on the coastline. Only in this way can we trap the Dutch in Java Island."
Zhang Guozhu never agrees to use the lives of his children in Guanzhong to exchange for a jungle that is not very valuable. Therefore, in terms of strategy, Zhang Guozhu is much more conservative than Yun Zhao and others.
Yun Zhao nodded at the end and said, "Then let the Golden Tiger march into Chameng and tell him that we need some war elephants to help us open a smooth road in the jungle."
