"It is better to use the current method to let domestic powerful people have ideas apply for investment and recruit troops. In addition, let the vassal states that regard me as the Holy Emperor contribute to the investment and troops. The court can also draw a small number of elite troops to form an alliance army and voyage to the West!"

Zhu Youxiao had long been intent on re-entering the Western Conference, but because there were too many more important things, he had to take action in the future.

Moreover, it does require a lot of money to go to the West in the early stage.

Zhu Youxiao knew that if the Ming Dynasty wanted to go to the West again, it would have to accumulate more national strength. After all, this time, it was not just like in history. When you reach the Red Sea coast, you also had to cross the Cape of Good Hope, cross Gibraltar, and go to Europe. It would be better to cross the Atlantic Ocean and the Americas.

Therefore, his idea of ​​voyage to the West has been delayed to the present.

But now, since Zhu Youxiao has found a new method, that is, to mobilize all Confucian countries in the East in the name of promoting Confucian civilization, and to allow them to establish their own vassal states as bait to invest in the powers and wealthy people to go to the West together, and then share the cost of going to the West, without having to bear the cost of going to the West alone, the Ming Dynasty could naturally carry out activities to go to the West in advance.

"yes!"

The regent ministers did not object, after all, the court now does need to go to the West to seize trade routes and can further dominate the global commodity market.

Bi Ziyan also took the initiative to make suggestions: "It just so happened that the fleet that was ordered to go to Australia has returned to Haojing. After he was rested for a while, he would be responsible for voyage to the West."

"allow!"

So, about a year later, under the will of the Saint Emperor Zhu Youxiao, the fleets of voyages from all sides gathered here, and under the leadership of the Ming general Shen Shouyi, the military operation to voyages to the West was officially launched.

Although the purpose of this voyage to the West is to maintain the existing trade routes, arrest the Spanish king, and make the Spanish pay the price for this matter, and together with other European countries, establish global trade and human rights rules with the people sent by the Ming Dynasty, thereby reducing massacres and achieving the progress of world civilization, it is essentially to seize some areas that are colonies of Eastern countries such as the Ming Dynasty. After all, the trade line cannot be controlled only in the hands of Westerners.

Now no one knows how much profit this route from the Ming Dynasty, Japan, India to Europa can bring.

Therefore, after Zhu Youxiao ordered the various vassal states to form a fleet with the Ming Dynasty to rush to the West, these vassal states responded positively.

Especially some Japanese daimyos, after seeing the benefits gained by the Satsuma clan participating in the Luzon Civilization Reform Plan, were very willing to compete with the Ming Empire for global interests.

Many Japanese daimyos no longer regard the Emperor as the monarch, but instead regard the Emperor of Ming Dynasty as the monarch.

There are also many daimyos who should worship the Emperor as the monarch because of their real interests.

Even the shogunate now worships the Emperor as the monarch, and takes the Emperor to command many great names, and worships the Emperor as the monarch.

It is convenient for the Ming Dynasty to seize global interests.

The civilization transformation plan on Luzon has reached its second step.

Koreans, Japanese and others all began to build Confucian civilization within their own sphere of influence, establish statues of Confucian saints, build temples of Confucius, create imperial examination systems, and establish the hierarchical order of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce.

The reason why Koreans and Japanese did this was related to the Confucian scholars who surrendered to the past, they took advantage of the officials sent by these countries to rule here for the admiration of the Ming Dynasty and respect for Chinese culture, and fooled these officials into replicating the reduced version of the Ming Dynasty before Zhu Youxiao ascended the throne, or to be precise, the reduced version of the Song Dynasty, because the Ming Dynasty had Jinyiwei and Dongchang, and the ruling system established by the Koreans and Japanese within their own sphere of influence, without Jinyiwei and Dongchang.

Why are the Korean officials and Japanese officials who rule their respective spheres of influence successfully deceived by Confucian scholars such as Ma Xuan?

The reason is very simple. These officials are also scholars and officials in their country, and their butts are also sitting on the side of scholars and officials. They are willing to accept this system of respecting Confucian scholars, and they are inferior in everything but have high reading.

Therefore, Confucian scholars such as Ma Xuan were very popular within the sphere of influence of North Korea and Japan, and have almost become the number two figures in these places.

However, this does not mean that this will make North Korea, Japan and others respect the Ming Dynasty more.

Instead, the existence of these people has reduced the respect for the Ming Dynasty and other countries.

Because these Confucian scholars were more hated than Koreans and Japanese, the Ming Dynasty, which had begun to appear, had scholars and people equally except the emperor.

Therefore, these Confucian scholars would keep waiting for the Korean officials and Japanese officials to undermine the Ming Dynasty, believing that the true Chinese Taoist regime had been brought to Korea and Japan by them, and the Ming Dynasty and the vassal states that implemented the existing system model of the Ming Dynasty were no longer purely ritual countries. Moreover, it is said that the Ming Dynasty is now in power, and the tyrants are in power.

Of course, based on the strong national strength of the Ming Dynasty, North Korea, Japan and other countries still have a sense of awe of the Ming Dynasty and dare not be negligent or contempt.

However, for the Chongzhen Kingdom established by Zhu Youjian, because Zhu Youjian was deeply influenced by Zhu Youjian and was reproduced by the current Ming Dynasty and a relatively small vassal state, he was crazyly despised by Confucian scholars such as Ma Xuan who defected to Korea or Japan. It can even be said to be hated, and he was even more eager to disappear from the earth than North Korea, Japan and others.

This is not surprising. People who don’t love their hometown often hate their hometown more than those who are outsiders.

Zhu Youjian did not establish a Confucian sage statue in Manila, nor did he exempt gentry from taxes. Influenced by Zhu Youxiao, he believed that Chinese civilization originated from the Bagua Yin and Yang created by Fuxi. Therefore, he initially used the taxes to build a water conservancy project. The project was in line with the art of Bagua, to adapt to nature, use nature, and divide the land to the people. He also encouraged the people to reclaim wasteland and establish a mutual aid club so that different farmers can complement each other. He also promoted education, popularized Chinese and mathematics, provided technical training and military training for young and strong people, and established a complete industrial system and education system. The statues he set up were only Zhu Youxiao's statues, Yanhuang statues and Zheng He statues.

The biggest difference between this and the ruling model that North Korea, Japan and other countries in Luzon is that because the gentry is not exempted from taxes, although the tax income is higher than that of North Korea and Japan, the tax burden of civilians is relatively low, and the tax income is more used to promote people's livelihood, which greatly improves the living conditions of civilians here.

Although it only took a year, both the Han and the natives had much better living conditions than in the days when Spanish colonists were in power.

In Korea, the civilians in Japan and other countries lived much worse than in the rule of the Spanish colonists, because the Koreans, Japanese, and the Confucian scholars who defected to them had to exploit and suppress the natives, forcing the local natives to flee to Chongzhen.

For this reason, North Korea, Japan and other countries have promulgated the fugitive law in the local governments, and imposed very severe punishments on the natives who fled to Manila, and the fugitives must be killed!
