Chapter 132 Zhu Di Calls For Troops! Zhu Yuanzhang: Want Soldiers? Can I Help You With Food, Grass,
Chapter 132 Zhu Di asks for troops! Zhu Yuanzhang: Want troops? Can I help you with grain, grass and cannons?
Finished washing.
Under the attire of a servant, Zhu Di put on a red nine-chapter round collar and narrow sleeves robe and a Yishan crown.
The whole body becomes brand new.
The dust on his body has completely disappeared.
However, the evil spirit left behind by the bloody battle on the battlefield still lingered around him.
"Prepare the carriage."
"Let's go into the palace and meet the saint."
Zhu Di was not angry and proud, and said expressionlessly.
"yes!"
The servant responded.
He quickly went down to arrange the carriage into the palace.
“His Royal Highness, King Yan, asks to see—!”
"His Royal Highness, King Yan, asks for an audience——!!"
The eunuch's sharp and elongated voice continued to be heard in the palace, Zhu Di's carriage drove into the palace, and then, in the imperial study room, Zhu Di saw Zhu Yuanzhang.
Royal study room.
Zhu Yuanzhang was wearing a yellow uniform and sitting behind the desk.
He put down the memorial in his hand and looked up at Zhu Di.
Zhu Di became more sharp-edged than before.
The evil spirit on his body is difficult to conceal.
His eyebrows are a bit more unruly.
"Fourth, you've come back just in time. It's almost New Year's Eve. When you come back, you can get together with us, your mother, and your eldest brother.
You are not in the capital during this period, and your eldest brother and queen mother still miss you. "
Zhu Yuanzhang said.
Zhu Di's heart trembled and he quickly said:
"I'm sorry, father, because my son has been attacking Goryeo, so I couldn't spare the time to write to my eldest brother and my mother."
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand.
"You are on the front line and have to lead the army in battles and kill the enemy in blood. It is normal to not be able to spare time.
"How about conquering Goryeo?"
After Zhu Yuanzhang exchanged a few pleasantries, he turned to the main topic.
From the content reported below, he knew about Zhu Di's attack on Goryeo and why Zhu Di asked to return to Beijing.
However, the procedures that need to be followed still need to be followed.
If you should pretend to ask, you still have to ask.
"Currently, most of Goryeo's border territories have been occupied by Erchen. These territories were originally the territories of the old Yuan Dynasty, but now, we have established the Ming Dynasty."
"These territories should also belong to our Ming Dynasty."
"My son is now recovering the Ming Dynasty's territory."
Zhu Di said nice things.
It is said to be the territory of the Ming Dynasty.
In fact, these territories occupied by Zhu Di were incorporated into Zhu Di's vassal state and became part of Zhu Di's vassal state.
"In addition, Chen also occupied more than a dozen cities in Goryeo."
Zhu Yuanzhang became visibly happy.
"good!"
"As expected of our son, fourth child, you did a great job!"
he praised.
Zhu Di's military ability is very strong.
Zhu Yuanzhang knew it.
Because of this, Zhu Yuanzhang gave Zhu Di the fiefdom of Peiping.
The purpose was to let Zhu Di guard Beiping and prevent the remaining forces of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and the barbarians from the north from invading the borders of the Ming Dynasty.
History has also proved that Zhu Di was very capable of leading troops in war.
Historically, when Zhu Di was still King of Yan, he frightened the remnant forces of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and foreign tribes in the north in the fiefdom of Beiping, and twice led his army across the Yanshan Mountains to conquer the generals of the Northern Yuan Dynasty alive.
And Zhu Di became emperor.
He continued to personally conquer the north.
Capture Annan.
Let the barbarians in the north submit.
Zhu Di spent almost all his life on the battlefield, and he finally died on the way back from the expedition.
Ordinary emperors simply cannot do what Zhu Di is like.
Conquests in the north and south.
Even people in their sixties even went to war in person.
This is rare in history.
"Father praised me."
"This is what a son should do."
Zhu Di is self-effacing.
He had something else on his mind.
Zhu Yuanzhang was so happy.
It's because the places conquered will be turned into colonies.
This means that the dozen or so occupied cities in Goryeo will also become colonies.
But Zhu Yuanzhang should not be so anxious. He should wait until he conquers Goryeo before plundering Goryeo's wealth and capital.
"Lao Si, since your attack on Goryeo went so smoothly, why don't you continue?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked knowingly.
Zhu Di:………………
He was speechless.
Isn’t this asking knowingly?
He just couldn't destroy Goryeo, so he came to ask for help.
The heritage of Goryeo lies here.
Although in the Yuan Dynasty, the splendor was still very low.
Therefore, Goryeo surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty.
Become a vassal state.
After so many years of development, even though Goryeo is not much stronger now.
But there are only tens of thousands of people in his fiefdom.
It is extremely difficult to destroy Goryeo.
Not to mention destroying Goryeo.
It is said that it is difficult to defend the captured territories.
It is for this reason that Zhu Di wanted to ask Zhu Yuanzhang for support.
"What is the current situation in Goryeo?"
Zhu Yuanzhang continued to ask.
"In the past ten years, Goryeo has suffered from internal and external troubles. Externally, there are the Tatars, Jurchens and Sakura Kingdom, the remaining forces of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, coveting the country. However, internal turmoil has occurred from time to time, making it difficult to develop and grow."
"But the heritage of Goryeo is still there."
"Currently, Goryeo is ruled by Li Chenggui."
"My son also secretly inquired that Li Chenggui had ambitions and wanted to depose the king and establish himself on his own."
Zhu Di replied.
Goryeo is a small country with constant internal strife and constant foreign aggression. Almost everyone wants to devour Goryeo.
Therefore, it was difficult for Goryeo to develop.
The current king of Goryeo is Wang Zhuan.
Wang Zhuan always wanted reform.
Centralize imperial power.
Get rid of rebellious ministers, relatives, and eunuchs.
So he appointed the untouchable monk Xin Min.
Xin Min continued to help King Wang Zhuan of Goryeo reform.
Imperial power continued to concentrate.
However, Xin Min has more and more power and becomes a party member, harming others.
Xin Min's status is already equivalent to Wang Zhuan.
People at that time said, "The country has two monarchs."
The second person refers to Xin Min.
Then Wang Zhuan wanted to secretly reduce Xin Min's power.
Xin Min and Wang Zhuan had a falling out.
Want to overthrow Wang Zhuan.
In the end, Wang Zhuan could only kill his former mentor and friend.
Among them, Li Chenggui is Li Zichun's eldest son.
When he fought against the former Yuan Dynasty, the Red Turban Army, Japanese pirates, Jurchens and other forces, he made outstanding military exploits and was continuously promoted.
Historically, this person launched a coup in 1388.
Take control of the Goryeo regime.
Then in 1392, he was elected by the ministers and became king.
This man was the founding monarch of the Bangzi Dynasty.
"Father, I hope to get your help and support. If I can be given more troops, I will surely be able to capture Goryeo quickly."
Zhu Di said tentatively.
Zhu Yuanzhang raised his eyes and glanced at Zhu Di.
"Fourth, it's not that we won't help you. If we help you, your brothers will all want us to help, so how can we help? We can't favor one over the other."
"How about this."
"We will give you dozens of cannons and hundreds of thousands of kilograms of grain."
"Support you (Li Lihao) to attack Goryeo."
"With the cannons and these grains, we believe that with your ability, you will be able to capture Goryeo.
Give troops?
It is impossible to give troops.
If given, it would be equivalent to dispersing the military power in the emperor's hands, which would disperse the imperial power.
Zhu Yuanzhang deliberately wanted to gather military power.
How could it be sent out?
Therefore, he only funded Zhu Di's strategic materials.
As for the rest, don't even think about it.
Zhu Di closed his eyelids slightly to cover up the emotions in his eyes, thinking:
Sure enough.
He guessed early on that Zhu Yuanzhang would not give troops and horses.
However, it is great to be able to obtain dozens of cannons and hundreds of thousands of kilograms of grain.
New Year's Eve is here in a blink of an eye.
Zhu Di reported the situation of Goryeo and then attacked.
Zhu Yuanzhang hosted a banquet with important ministers in the palace to celebrate the New Year together.
But Ye Xuan, at this time, went to the night market of the Ming Dynasty with Shen Rong and two maids, Qiuyue and Chunchan.
