Although the 18th year of Yongle was fleeting, it was definitely one of the most memorable years of the Ming Dynasty's hundreds of years of national destiny, because this year, the Ming Dynasty wanted the world to understand a truth.

I want to hit you in the Ming Dynasty, and it is not something you can do by hiding.

Zhu Di personally led the army to take charge of the Nuergan area. Tens of thousands of troops were equipped with divine firearms and various oil protection. Even in the extremely cold weather, the firearms still intimidate the Jurchen army to not break through.

As the Transportation Department and Times Traffic put into full production, the trains running on the main artery road running across the Mobei and Indochina Peninsula changed from one to three, then five, seven... and then directly to twenty.

Then due to the limitations of steel, the production speed slowed down.

But even so, the train ran day and night, and countless supplies were transported to Nuergan, ensuring the cost of Nuergan's great Ming army.

Because of the emergence of Daliang, coal mine mining in Shaanxi also developed rapidly. This is a temporary solution. Zhu Gaochi still followed the grand strategy of dusk. The coal mines in Shaanxi were only used in the past or two years. Therefore, Zhu Gaochi from the Central Kingdom quickly issued an order to the Indochina Peninsula, asking Liu Ningran and Yu Qian to increase the mining efforts of coal mines.

Xun said, use foreign ones first.

The country is left to future generations.

Although the Indochina Peninsula is under governance, Zhu Gaochi also knew in his heart that some places are too far away, and two descendants who disdained their descendants may lose these territory, so if you can use them first, use them first.

Before the 18th year of Yongle, Zhu Di issued an imperial edict calling North Korea King Li Ju to the Nuergan area.

He did not scold North Korea for its failure to cooperate.

Even Li Qi went back on his word and refused to ask for his return. He just took Li Qi to the blockade line of the Ming Dynasty's Xiong Army blockade of the Jurchen army.

The Ming soldiers were asked to practice a machine gun blockade design facing a breakthrough, and even used the Taishan to hunt - using the machine guns and artillery on the Taishan to bomb the dog roe deer.

It's useless.

But this is what Zhu Di wants.

Li Qi was indeed shocked, especially seeing that the Ming Dynasty's heroic army did not land due to the severe cold weather and the combat reduction was almost negligible, Li Qi was completely unclear.

Then Zhu Di took Li Qi to take a train.

The smartest and most capable king of the Lee Dynasty in Korea knew why the Ming Dynasty did not withdraw troops in winter, and also understood the intention of Zhu Di to ask him to come.

What else can it be done.

Li Qi was not confused. With the terrifying logistics capabilities of the Ming Dynasty, the Jurchens could survive for three or five months, and sooner or later they would be cleared. At that time, Nuer's side would be the absolute territory of the Ming Dynasty.

With that train, let alone hitting the Jurchens, the Ming Dynasty could even press forward step by step, using the Shenmao firearm as a stepping stone to open the road, and then laying the official roads and pushing them forward. The attack on North Korea was also holding hands.

Please go back, please go back, the wolves' ambitions of the Ming Dynasty are unstoppable.

Now I want to go home, and I may be able to ensure that my family can enjoy generational wealth and honor just like Mahadevi in ​​Angkor and Li people in Jiaozhi. If I don’t invite me, I will wait until the Ming Dynasty fights, let alone generational wealth and honor, it would be great to be able to keep my head.

Zabaer Beerdi of the Golden Horde is the previous example. After the city of Salai was broken, he was escorted to the Ming Dynasty. Before Zhu Di personally led the expedition, the Khan "dyed suddenly due to illness."

So in Nuer, Li Qi formally asked Zhu Di to return to the Ming Dynasty.

This time it is proposed, which is completely different from the last time it is proposed.

Last time, he was the prince.

But this time, he was the king and had a serious national policy.

Zhu Di was very pleased to see this.

However, Li Qi's fence-grandfather - I don't lead the army to conquer the Jurchens in person, will you invite me? You are afraid that you will continue to be so good at everything and want to be a powerful king.

Now I know, please return?

Can.

But I still want to let you feel the things that are worried, so I casually said and discussed it again, and sent Li Qi back to North Korea - I will discuss it again, and you have a good attitude in North Korea. If you have agreed, then your Li royal family will hand over power, and I will station troops in North Korea in the Ming Dynasty and set up a governor. Everyone will be happy.

If you have a bad attitude in North Korea, or if our courts do not agree well, then my Ming Dynasty sent troops to North Korea and then control your entire territory of North Korea after defeating your North Korean army. My Ming Dynasty is very happy, and you, Li Qi, will be a prisoner.

There is nothing you can do about this, who told you not toast or not to eat wine.

So after Li Qi returned to the capital of Korea with this news, the entire Korean government and the country were shrouded in a dark cloud. Now he is invited to return, but will he be taken by the Ming Dynasty and his initiative no longer be in his hands.

It depends on Zhu Di’s mood!

In the past two years, when the Ming Dynasty fought against the Jurchens, North Korea has been watching the wall. Almost all the superstructures in North Korea felt that they had offended Zhu Di. The Ming Dynasty was very likely to send troops to North Korea - this is not a problem that can be solved by sending a few tribute girls.

A vassal state?

What does not exist is Yilibali, and it is not the same as the vassal state, and it is not the same as the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, when North Korea discussed this, it felt that it was necessary to ask the Prince of Ming Dynasty. So during the Spring Festival of the 18th year of Yongle, North Korea sent two waves of envoys to Nuergan, and sent a large amount of gold, silver and tribute women to Zhu Di.

At the same time, the North Korean army was transferred to the border. As long as Zhu Di gave instructions, he would immediately send troops to assist the Ming Dynasty in tribute to the Jurchen army.

Another wave of envoys went to Yingtian.

It is also gold, silver and a large number of tribute women. I hope to "corrode" Prince Zhu Gaochi and let Prince Zhu Gaochi say something nice to Zhu Di in front of the matter of North Korea's invitation to return.

I won’t mention the reactions of the two waves of envoys.

In the 19th year of Yongle, after the beginning of spring, Changping Dusi on the grassland was transferred out by Quanchao to the Nuergan area when the snow began to melt, and encircled and suppressed the Jurchen army hiding in the dense forests.

Excellent effect.

The Jurchen army, trapped in the snowfield for a winter, had long lost its combat power. There was no suspense. The Ming army was almost destroyed and completely destroyed the Jurchens.

The Ming Dynasty war against the Jurchens lasted for three years and finally came to an end after Zhu Di personally led the army.

Later, Zhu Di led the army.

Yi Shiha continued to take charge of the Nurgan area. At the same time, the General Office of the Nurgan area and the various governing departments also quickly increased their control over the jurisdiction.

The most important thing is still the post-war cultural assimilation work.

Fortunately, other areas have successful experiences, and the Nurgan General Office only needs to copy homework, but there is still a little difference: under Zhu Di's instruction, a large number of people moved from the pass to the Nurgan area, while the Haixi Jurchens, the savage Jurchens and the Jianzhou Jurchens were completely disbanded and lived in mixed places with the Han people in the Nurgan area.

This is for faster cultural assimilation.
