In the 20th year of Yongle, the first day after the Lantern Festival, the stone that had been pressing on Zhu Di's heart for twenty years finally landed.

Although the matter is confidential.

However, after all, it was the Zhu family and he was the emperor for four years. Zhu Di was not so crazy about the funeral. He asked someone to build a luxurious tomb for Zhu Yunwen, and even the tomb was allowed to be carved dragons.

It is the dragon of the emperor, not the dragon of the vassal king.

It’s just that the tombstone is not allowed to be named. After all, it would be better for Zhu Yunwen to die in the Fengtian Palace fire in the 35th year of Hongwu, and should not die in the Huazang Temple in Zhiti Mountain, Ningde, Fujian.

The dust settles.

The group continued to take the train to respond to the sky, then set off from Yingtian, took the train north, and then arrived directly to Weihai - Weihai. Because there was Zheng He's shipyard, the Ministry of Industry gave priority to taking care of it. Therefore, although there was no special train in Weihai, if Your Majesty was on the way, he would have to transfer a train to pass when he was on his way.

Actually a bit embarrassing.

Railway tracks were built on most of the official roads of the Ming Dynasty, wasting a lot of steel. After all, not all trains will run in all places. However, the explanation at dusk is that sooner or later, so repair them first.

This is a simple railway.

A country's economic development cannot be separated from a developed railway network.

...

...

As expected by Daming, the envoy sent to Japan was slow to come back without any news - anyway, Daming killed it with one bite, and it was Japan's Ashikaga Yoshika who refused to accept the punishment.

It's a bit dark-bellied here.

At this time, the delegation probably thought it was impossible to send back the message not long after it arrived in Japan.

But the Ming Dynasty doesn't care.

Time waits for no one.

The main reason was that Zhu Di was anxious. After Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen had a glass of poisonous wine, Zhu Di had the rest of his life and was interested in expedition to Japan. After he fought against Japan, the Southeast and the West would have to hand it over to his beloved grandson.

It was also his arrangement.

If you can't do everything well and let your grandson have nothing to do, you still have to find something for Zhu Zhanji. In addition, Zhu Di has a little selfish intention. The prosperous era of Yongle is already brilliant enough. If you don't leave a chance to "great achievements" for your grandson, then your grandson will become the emperor in history.

Zhu Di's selfishness is Hongwu, Yongle, the prince and grandson, and the king of the times, and his reputation has been shared throughout the ages.

Then the grandson Zhu Zhanji cannot have only the civilized rule.

Must have martial arts.

Where does martial arts come from?

The South and the West, and the Grand Duchy of Russia.

So Zhu Di really put a good intention in order to make Zhu Zhanji.

This time he went to Japan, it was of great importance. Zhu Di actually didn't think that after fighting so many foreign wars, no country could make him nervous.

But after arriving in Weihai, Zhu Di discovered a strange phenomenon.

Zhenxigong was very nervous at dusk.

And also excited.

First, I thought that Zhenxi Duke was nervous and excited about the Japanese beauty that I was about to get, but later I realized that it was not the case. Zhenxi Duke was excited from the bottom of my heart.

As long as I was with Zhu Di, I would be very excited when I talked about fighting Japan, but while I was excited, the dusk was nervous everywhere, and I obviously had great ideas about expeditions to Japan.

And it's earnest.

Zhu Di was a little nervous. According to the evening, if the attack on Japan is not good, wouldn't he jump up and curse? This makes me feel ashamed of him.

Of course, Zhu Di would not be ashamed of the dusk.

But the mood of dusk infected him and made Zhu Di nervous, feeling that he was still too relaxed and should strengthen his expedition to Japan to ensure that everything was safe.

So under such circumstances, Zhu Di issued several imperial edicts in succession.

The first step was to transfer all domestic navy troops to the Weihai location to prepare the most abundant military sources for the Ming Navy.

The second way was to transfer Xu Huizu from Yingtian to Weihai, responsible for the command of the Expeditionary Cavalry. After the navy went over and laid the foundation, the treasure ship would transport the Ming cavalry to land on landing and combat.

The third line was that the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Works had only about ten treasure ships sold. They requisitioned and pulled back the sold ones and pulled them all to Weihai. Fortunately, the Spring Festival was just over, so they could reach thirty treasure ships, and the remaining four hundred materials warships were transferred 63 to be responsible for the transportation of grain and grass and the transportation of infantry forces.

The fourth route was directly delivered to the various heads of the Indochina Peninsula, and ordered Jiaozhi and Angkor to step up the recruitment of 100,000 migrant workers in the north, to rush to Weihai, and wait for an opportunity to cross the sea to reach Japan.

On the fifth road, the northern coastal areas recruited navies again, with a limit of 50,000.

These five imperial edicts are big moves.

And small moves.

All the troops drawn from the garrisons in the north were dispatched to Weihai to wait for military orders, and even more strengthened the generals. For example, Zheng Heng, Li Qian, Gou'er, Yi Shiha, Xu Yin, Zhang Fu and others rushed to Weihai and led their own troops.

Among them, Xu Yin arrived in Weihai and was called over by Dusk for a afternoon talk. That night, under the recommendation of Dusk, he served as the commander of the Beiyang Navy.

Well, it's Zheng He's deputy.

Zhu Di had no objection.

Because Xu Dun said it very clearly: it is to let Xu Yin learn the navy's tactical experience so that Xu Yin can have the strength to be responsible for the navy in the future overseas.

Obviously Xu Yin was moved by the dusk and was willing to go overseas.

With Zhu Di's dispatch of troops, before the Ming Navy set sail, a small port in Weihai had a navy of 25,000, a navy of 20,000, a navy of 20,000, an infantry of 130,000, and a cavalry of 50,000.

Among them, the navy is basically equipped with muskets.

The navy is partially equipped.

All 50,000 cavalrymen were equipped with muskets, and the Shenji Battalion of 130,000 out of 130,000 infantrymen and 60,000 were equipped with muskets. Well, because ordinary troops were also equipped with firearms one after another, the remaining 70,000 infantrymen were also equipped with muskets.

That is, the 80,000 infantry were equipped with muskets.

Weihai, Navy, Navy, Infantry, Cavalry, Shenji Battalion, the total force reached 225,000!

But the navy was only 25,000 after five steel warships.

The navy had more than 20,000 people, carrying treasure ships and 63,400-material warships, and were pulling to replenish troops and food, and would follow behind the steel warship in a few days.

Let the steel warships open the way, and the navy's combat power serve as support.

The remaining troops are used as login.

The 225,000 troops were equipped with firearms, which reached a terrifying 150,000. There were also powerful generals like Zhu Gaoxu, Xu Huizu, Zheng Heng, Zheng He, Gou'er, Yi Shiha, Zhang Fu, and Zhu Zhanji.

It can be said that this lineup is already the strongest lineup in the Ming Dynasty.

It can be called luxurious.

But even so, the dusk would not be easy, because he knew that it was a cross-sea expedition to Japan, full of variables. If his side made a slight major mistake and lost the entire army, he and Zhu Di would probably end up with Wang Zhen and Baozong.

Although this amount of troops was not all the elite of the Ming Dynasty.

But I was worried about dusk.

Because I was unfamiliar with the place, I attacked Japan because it was a country, and this country had extraordinary stubbornness in the war and had a shit-like Bushido spirit.
