The first thousand two hundred and seventy-five chapters five stars out of the new journey of the East and China (sixteen)

When the news of the Chinese army's suppression of the rebels of Wu Sangui in Yunnan reached the capital, Emperor Zhang Ping'an sighed softly after reading the memorial. It was not that Zhang Ping'an sympathized with Wu Sangui, but compared with the situation in Annan, the battle in Yunnan was a beautiful annihilation battle. The Zuo Erya tribe of the southern expedition of Annan Kingdom was still progressing well, but Annan was a broken place to support people. The number of captives captured by Annan Kingdom reached 1.6 million, and it was naturally a long time to rely on sea transportation alone. Zuo Erya, who became the deputy general manager of the Yixing Camp, killed the nine tribes of the Annan Kingdom after the war ended, and the civil and military officials of Annan Kingdom.

He also killed all the officials. However, the emperor Zhang Ping'an and several uncles with titles have become more and more shameless recently. Before the war in Annan was over, they began to think about going to Myanmar to buy slaves. According to the words of King Ermu, the leader of the Maritime Merchant Alliance, they hoped that the Imperial Navy would conquer the Siam Kingdom. After all, the Siam people engaged in farming, and if they captured the Siam people as slaves, they would definitely sell them for a good price. The only thing that made Emperor Zhang Ping'an happy recently was that the Han people in the South China Sea had a hard waist and they spontaneously gathered to establish a country.

This place is called Java, and is the place where the eunuch Xuanfu of the Three Guards in the Ming Dynasty. The Han people here are very smart. They jointly wrote memorials to the imperial emperor Zhang Ping'an, begging the emperor to send people to be kings. The Han people here also sent people to pay tribute to the emperor. They knew that Emperor Zhang Ping'an liked novel things, and the gifts paid to the tribute were mostly local rare beasts. Zhang Ping'an did not like these things at all. Because the cold north of the north, most of these so-called rare beasts were frozen to death. The only thing that interested Emperor Zhang Ping'an was a few black things. Others didn't know what this was, but Zhang Ping'an saw this thing very much.

Overjoyed. These black pieces of things were exactly the rubber that Zhang Ping'an dreamed of. With this good thing, his test workshop would make a great progress. At the court meeting, Emperor Zhang Ping'an only gave the tribute mission some leather robes that destroyed the slave city and promised to consider the mission's request. After Song Meixin, the general manager of the Lifansi, sent the mission away, Zhang Ping'an asked the ministers to discuss the matter at the court meeting. Originally, the imperial court ministers were not interested in the small countries in the South China Sea, but they could not resist the emperor's preference for expanding territory. The ministers asked the emperor to enfeoff the king here to their sons.

Regarding the ministers' flattery suggestions, Emperor Zhang Ping'an directly rejected the suggestion, and he did not even give a reason. Others did not know the emperor's personality, and the officials and nobles from the Possess City knew what the emperor was thinking. According to the emperor's earlier talk, there was a continent south of Java. The Imperial Navy also sent two flat-character gunships and more than ten whistle ships and armed cargo ships to investigate at the beginning of the year. They believed that Emperor Zhang Ping'an had no regard for the island countries near the South China Sea at all. He once wanted to send his son Zhang Shangwen to this southern continent to be the emperor. Emperor Zhang Ping'an

Several uncles roughly guessed the emperor's inner thoughts, and the old guys also felt that this was an opportunity for them. Although these emperor's uncles were able to go to court to discuss matters with noble status, Emperor Zhang Ping'an still gave them a ban order. Emperor Zhang Ping'an knew very well that several uncles could not read a few words and were even more out of court politics. If these people were exploited by those who were interested, the consequences would be unimaginable. For this reason, Zhang Ping'an did not allow several uncles to speak during the meeting. Even if the Maritime Merchant Alliance had important matters to report, he would still be alone after the court meeting.

Fortunately, Zhang Ping'an's uncles were not stupid, and they valued the treatment given to them by the emperor. Anyway, they had something to discuss with the emperor, and Zhang Ping'an basically never refuted their face. Generally, after the court was dispersed, Zhang Ping'an wanted to leave the cabinet ministers to discuss matters, and after the emperor's uncles came to court, they quietly gathered outside the Meridian Gate to discuss together. Due to the high consistency of interests, the old guys quickly reached a consensus. The four imperial nobles came to Zhangjiazhuang outside Xizhimen. As soon as they entered the courtyard, they called someone to pass on the message to the Imperial Chef General Manager Ma Wu, saying that they would be asked at noon.

He ate mutton with the emperor. Ma Wu, the Imperial Chef, has a fifth-rank official. When he heard the emperor's elders' orders, he immediately started preparing the emperor's lunch. Ma Wu knew that the emperor's life was extremely miserable. These uncles from different surnames were his relatives who were filial. In addition, these elders took special care of the Ma Wu family. After hearing the order, Ma Wu ordered to handle the meals in person. Ma Wu followed Emperor Zhang Ping'an for twenty years, and he was the Imperial Chef's chief manager through experience. Ma Wu's three sons also became the royal chef, and their family's food and salary also came from the royal family.

The royal internal affairs were still the imperial concubine Ji Yuehe was arrested. After receiving reports from Ma Wu, Ji Yuehe immediately sent someone to send a message to Xie Xun, the general manager of the Supervisor's Office, asking him to send someone to report to the emperor not to let a few elders wait for a long time. Since Wang Qinghe, the former general manager of the Supervisor's Office, was killed for forging the emperor's letter, Xie Xun took over the position of the Supervisor's Office, and Du Xiaoshan was now the general manager of the Supervisor's Office. The emperor Zhang Ping'an, who received the notification from his family, didn't care at first. No major events have happened recently, and it is common for him to have dinner with a few uncles. But at the dinner table, everyone talked about some family matters.

The elders focused on how much their son hoped that the emperor would take care of him. Hearing this request, Zhang Ping'an thought his uncle wanted to give his son a title, so he immediately expressed his opposition. Most generals in the Chinese army did not have titles, and why did several children who had no military merits in the uncles hold high positions? Although Zhang Ping'an denied the possibility of several elders making progress for the children, his uncles immediately changed the subject and said that they wanted to contribute to the Chinese army's expansion of territory in the South China Sea. The cunning Zhang Ping'an slowly came back to his mind. These uncles seemed to be interested in the South China Sea island country and wanted his son to go there to be kings.

Zhang Ping'an, who guessed that his uncles were still in a state of calmness, was willing to give this benefit to his family, but he must make several fat elders pay the corresponding price for it. These elders are in charge of the maritime business alliance. Although they don’t know anything, they are considered businessmen who have been doing business for a long time. In addition to Tong Junchen and Sun Shan, Wang Ermu and Li Tie have long been old foxes in the business world. However, these elders were bewitched by Zhang Ping'an in their engagement in business. In terms of negotiation skills, they are not cunning Zhang.

Ping'an's opponent. At the dinner table, Zhang Ping'an took the initiative to talk about the strategy of the South China Sea, saying that he would establish the South China Sea Governor's Office in Temasek (Singapore) to be responsible for handling all matters of the vassal states in the South China Sea. This Governor's Office has different powers from the Governor's Office with imperial status. It is a military and civilian arrest, and it also has its own gunship. However, this Governor's Office was first established and needed a large amount of money to support it. Emperor Zhang Ping'an took so many turns, and only the money was required to reveal his original intention. Several elders patted their chests and expressed their willingness to cover the costs of the South China Sea Governor's Office and all gunships.

The happy emperor Zhang Ping'an naturally would not be satisfied. He continued to ask several elders to pay for money. Zhang Ping'an wanted to give his sons the emperor in Nanyang (now Australia). Emperor Zhang Ping'an's son was their grandchildren, and they were obliged to ask the grandfathers to pay the money for the family. Of course, the elders who came to his senses would not be suckers. They only agreed to pay 30% of the money for the establishment of the Nanyang Kingdom. Zhang Ping'an, who was extremely fooling, told his uncles that the Nanyang Kingdom was extremely wide and its area was almost as large as the inner city. Zhang Ping'an asked someone to take the chart he drew and drew a circle in the middle of Nanyang Kingdom with a charcoal pen, saying that there were tens of thousands here.

The land inside can be sold to several uncles. When the elders who were fooled by Emperor Zhang Ping'an saw that such a large area was sold to them, wouldn't it be a dozens of generations of children and grandchildren who had no worries about food and clothing? How could they know that the mainland of Nanyang is mostly deserts and all the good places on the coast. Zhang Ping'an used the desert and some areas with iron ore to exchange their real money and silver. Everyone was very happy with the meal. Zhang Ping'an verbally agreed to share the South China Sea island country with the sons of the uncles to be kings. However, Zhang Ping'an secretly concealed the differentiation strategy in this painting cake. He asked the General Staff to make specific divisions. This territorial of different sizes was enough to cause differences among the uncles themselves.

In the winter solstice of the fourth year of China, Emperor Zhang Ping'an received news that his son was in the Americas. Due to the long journey, the sea route to the Americas was not smooth. The American Emperor Zhang Shangwu only took a year to open up tens of thousands of miles of territory. According to Zhang Shangwu's letter, he seized territory in the Americas and had several conflicts with local natives, among which the largest conflict had about 6,000 people. The reason why Zhang Shangwu did not call the war with the indigenous people a battle was mainly because his opponent's combat power was too weak, so he was embarrassed to say it was a war. As Zhang Ping'an's son most valued by Zhang Shangwu, Zhang Shangwu was as cruel as his father.

Zhang Ping'an exiled the Ming Dynasty's General Emperor Zhu Cilang and the royal family to America. Zhang Shangwu had no intention of letting these former royal families establish their own country. In just one year, Zhu Cilang and the 600 men of the royal family died mysteriously. The nobles who followed the royal family also exposed the royal family's children hiding in the mountains in order to protect themselves. Most of the weapons in the hands of the Native Americans were iron tools of poor quality, and many bows and arrows were still using bone arrows. In addition, the indigenous people had no strategy in fighting, and they almost lost one battle against the Chinese army. The territory of the American emperor Zhang Shangwu can expand rapidly in the short term.

Because of this, Zhang Shangwu can unscrupulously eliminate the Ming royal family without fear of causing civil strife. However, in the process of eliminating the Ming royal family, Zhang Shangwu took the opportunity to attack the intelligence department and the city guard hidden in the army. His son Zhang Shangwu could still understand this. This is Zhang Shangwu's absolute right to speak. Although Zhang Ping'an understood, he could not allow Zhang Shangwu to touch his bottom line. This bottom line is that Zhang Shangwu cannot escape from the control of the Chinese Empire. When Zhang Shangwu just left the empire, Zhang Ping'an

There is still much reluctance. Once Zhang Shangwu had a strange intention to be completely independent, Zhang Ping'an, the emperor of the Chinese Empire, naturally had to plot against his son on this matter. Zhang Ping'an issued an order to send 7,000 muskets and carbines to the American Empire. With guns, there were naturally bullets. Zhang Ping'an specially sent 100,000 bullets to his son. While giving Zhang Shangwu a high-quality weapon, Zhang Ping'an wrote a private message to Zhang Shangwu, asking him not to arrest the intelligence department and the detective office in the army.
