Chapter 0066 The law of dynasty period! Sea power can end!!

“Your understanding of ports is still too shallow.”

Zhu Heng shook his head slightly and said:”The port must not only be able to accommodate large ships, but also must consider seasonal issues.”

“For example, if a port freezes in winter and cannot berth ships, it is destined to fail to become a big port!”

“Yangzhou port is frozen in winter……”

At this point, Yao Guangxiao was stunned for a moment and couldn’t help but nodded:”That’s true.”

Unlike most people’s impressions, Yangzhou is not that warm.

In winter, it is actually very cold.

If a port cannot dock ships in winter, then controlling sea power will become a joke.

“Therefore, if you want to become a great sea power, you must have an excellent ice-free port!”

At this point, Zhu Heng suddenly looked at Zhu Di and said,”You have been a soldier. In the fourth year of Hongwu, the emperor launched a war to regain the Liaodong Nuerganwei. Do you know?”

“certainly……”

Zhu Di thought of this and nodded slightly:”It seems that two thousand households were sent there. What are they called to come and see?”

The general’s position was not high, and he was not worthy of remembering his name.

But Zhu Heng said with a strange expression:”My name is… Ma Yun”

“Yes, yes, that’s him!”

Zhu Di’s eyes suddenly lit up, he nodded quickly, looked at Zhu Heng with admiration and said:”Brother, you have such a good memory, you remember all this.”

“A piece of cake……”

Zhu Heng shook his head and smiled. After all, this name… is so outstanding that it is difficult to forget.

It’s just that Jack Ma in this era has little money.

He is a close confidant of Zhu Yuanzhang and the current governor of Fengyangxing. As expected, people with this name are very extraordinary.

But Yao Guangxiao was a little confused.

Zhu Di continued:”In the fifth year of Hongwu, Ma Yun led his troops by boat from Penglai, Shandong, crossed the sea and landed at Shizikou, and regained Liaodong.”

“Because the sea journey went smoothly, Shizikou was renamed Lushunkou.”

“Brother, are you saying that the Port Arthur where they landed is a frost-free port?”

“good……”

Zhu Heng also nodded with some emotion. Those named Ma Yun are not ordinary people.

What’s more important is that it has occupied an extremely important ice-free port!

“Lushun Port is located at the strategic point of the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea. It is an important gateway to Peiping and strangles the throat of the Bohai Strait. The terrain is difficult and it is a strategic military port.”

“What’s even more rare is that the water in the harbor is deep and it is a natural ice-free harbor.”

“Of course, the more things like ice-free Hong Kong, the better.”

“I headed towards another ice-free port, which was in… Vladivostok, oh, that is, the slave Qianwei of the Liaodong Commandery Department”

“This port is the exit port of the Pacific Ocean. Don’t ask where the Pacific Ocean is. You only need to know that Nuerganwei is more important than Port Arthur. However, this port has a flaw. It is located on the border and is extremely easy to lose.……”

When he said this, Zhu Heng’s face turned a little cold.

During the Hongwu period, Vladivostok was already the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty set up a garrison here.

During the Yongle period, the guard station was promoted to the commander of Nuer Qiandu, which is also the famous Nuer Qiansi.

But Vladivostok is an excellent ice-free port.

In the chaos of the late Qing Dynasty for hundreds of years, it will be taken away by the bear!

This impact is actually extremely far-reaching……

“Nuerganwei brings together ports, cities, industrial centers, trade centers, and military towns.”

“Even if you look at the whole world, it is one of the few excellent ports.”

“With this place in hand, the entire import and export trade in Liaodong does not have to look far away and bypass Dalian Port or Yingkou Port.”

“And can be transferred directly!”

“In this way, the entire Liaodong can directly trade overseas, and its future prosperity will be comparable to that of Jiangnan!”

It’s a pity that such an important place will be lost in the future.

But at this time, Zhu Di said angrily:”Isn’t it Nahachu in Liaodong? He was just a defeated general of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. The emperor captured him alive back then.”

“It was just a coincidence, let him go”

“If he dares to come and seize the port again, he will be seeking death! But

Zhu Heng shook his head slightly and said:”The person who covets the position of slave guard is not Naha, but someone else, but our neighbor.””

“But let’s talk about this later”

“But through this incident, you have to know that once the era of sea power begins, the enemy we will face is not just a Beiyuan, but the entire world!”

When Zhu Di heard this, he nodded solemnly.

Yao Guangxiao was also shocked and couldn’t help but nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Zhu Heng continued:”As for the strait, you should treat it as a traffic artery.”

“Fortunately, the era of sea power has not yet arrived, and the straits around our Ming Dynasty can be passed freely.”

“There is only one thing to note… I call it the Strait of Malacca”

“Don’t just nod your head there. You know the Strait of Malacca is just a piece of cake. Let me draw it for you.”

As he said that, Zhu Heng dipped his fingers in tea and started drawing on the table. At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was impatient when he heard this.

We really want to see it too, he can’t wait to break in directly!

“Father, don’t worry, don’t disturb the inside.

Zhu Biao quickly advised:”I believe that my fourth brother can remember it clearly. I will ask him to draw it for you.””

“That kid is just a pig-headed person. He can memorize some books for a month. It’s amazing that he can remember them!”

Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily.

“Afterwards, I controlled Yao Guangxiao. Isn’t he knowledgeable and knowledgeable? Let him draw it for us.”

“yes.”

Mao Xiang, who had been standing by, hurriedly responded.

“The pattern that Hen’er mentioned is getting bigger and bigger, and this fourth child shouldn’t let a rebel hear this.”

Zhu Yuanzhang’s eyes flashed coldly.

Zhu Heng’s theory has both big strategies and details! It is simply a step-by-step guide to sea power.

This is the way to govern a country!

It is also the secret of dragon slaying!

Zhu Di actually let him A rebel was listening to Zhu Heng’s lecture. Zhu Di was going to rebel!

If he didn’t want to know what kind of medicine this old man was selling, he wanted to break in and ask clearly. I sighed in my heart.

The more important what Zhu Heng said, the greater Zhu Di’s guilt. At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao were looking at each other. In the middle, Yao Guangxiao and Zhu Di’s heads are gathered together, looking at the drawings made by Zhu Heng’s fingers on the table.

“The so-called Strait of Malacca is located between Sarawak and Java. These two countries are our vassals and there is nothing to worry about.”

“But the Strait of Malacca is an international waterway connecting the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Don’t ask me where the Pacific and Indian Oceans are.”

“All you need to know is that this is the crossroads between the Ming Dynasty and the entire world.”

“To seize sea power, you must first occupy the Strait of Malacca!”

There is no need for Zhu Heng to explain.

Following Zhu Heng’s painting, Zhu Di and Yao Guangxiao were shocked and saw the importance of the Strait of Malacca very clearly.

Around the Strait of Malacca, there is a dense cluster of islands, and in Malacca Beyond the strait are the Japanese islands.

Whether you are going out of the Ming Dynasty or heading towards the Ming Dynasty, you must go through the Strait of Malacca!

Otherwise, it is a ridiculously long way to occupy the Strait of Malacca.

An extremely important transportation hub! In the era of sea power, the Strait of Malacca also represents the right to development! At this moment, Zhu Di and Yao Guangxiao both had a burning look on their eyes.

“This is a battleground for military strategists. Even if they invest all the strength of the country, they will not hesitate. Zhu Di’s eyes turned red. He stared at the strait drawn by the tea stains on the table and gritted his teeth and said:”The navy must form a navy.” powerful navy”

“Protect this strait”

“Many islands on both sides of the strait must also be included in the rule of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Heng smiled slightly at this moment:”You are not the emperor, so what you say doesn’t count. Master, what do you think?”……”

Then, Zhu Heng looked at Yao Guangxiao meaningfully.

This person said it, even if it can be calculated

“I……”

Yao Guangxiao opened his mouth, but suddenly woke up and broke into a cold sweat.

I talked too much!

He laughed dryly and said,”The poor monk is just talking nonsense. Please don’t take it to heart.”

Zhu Heng raised his eyebrows, but shook his head slightly. Yao Guangxiao was still too cautious and didn’t dare to talk nonsense, but it didn’t matter.

As long as a seed is planted in Yao Guangxiao’s heart first.

After he successfully helped Zhu Di to rebel.

This seed will naturally sprout and grow into a towering tree.

Now that I have formed a good relationship with Yao Guangxiao, I have no intentions.

Yao Guangxiao is bad in many ways, but there is one good thing about him.

This person is nostalgic.

After he became famous, he took great care of his old friends when he was poor, and even visited them personally.

It’s just that those old friends are not very willing to pay attention to him. Of course, this is something to talk about later.

But at this time, Zhu Di was so excited by Zhu Heng’s words.

It’s as if I can see myself wandering around the sea in the future.

He stared at the tea chart on the table, suddenly raised his eyes and said:”After occupying the Strait of Malacca, the next step is to kill Japan.”……”

“Brother, can you give an example and explain in detail how we attack Japan?”

But Zhu Yuanzhang outside also looked slightly moved and nodded slightly:”This kid hasn’t been carried away yet.”

The blueprint planned by Zhu Heng is very tempting.

But it is not enough to look attractive. This blueprint must be turned into real benefits.

Therefore, a specific goal and plan must be set.

Zhu But Biao breathed a long sigh of relief and said:”Father, the fourth brother asked about things at sea. It seems that the fourth brother really aims at the sea and has no intention of collaborating with the rebel Yao Guangxiao.

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly:”This guy didn’t discuss these matters with us first.””

“It seems that this kid is much closer to Heng’er than to me. Is this prodigal thing so scary to me?”

Father, you can say these words?

Do you need to say this?

Your fourth brother has been psychologically affected by your beating.

In contrast, he naturally wants to be closer to Zhu Heng, the easy-to-talk eldest brother……

Zhu Biao smiled helplessly and said:”It’s a good thing for brothers to be harmonious. Zhu

Yuanzhang ignored Zhu Di and said thoughtfully:”Japan is not easy to fight.””

Japan seems to be alone overseas and its national strength is not strong, but in fact… it is really difficult to attack it. When the Ming Dynasty was first established, the Ming Dynasty sent envoys twice to ask Japan to attack. As a result, Japan refused to attack twice.

The Ming Dynasty paid tribute and killed the Ming Dynasty envoys, but the end result was that the Ming Dynasty listed Japan as a country that could not be conquered.

Why not?

It was because there was no way to conquer the vast sea, which was the natural barrier between Japan and the Ming Dynasty. The Mongolian army conquered Japan twice.

Once, the army was drowned in the sea and waves.

Once it had just landed, it was forced to jump into the sea by the Japanese army who had been well prepared.

It’s not that easy to fight.

The shift from land power to sea power represents a change in the Ming Dynasty’s basic national policy.

The Ming Dynasty was so big that it could affect the entire country without a highly feasible strategy to conquer Japan. Easily change basic national policies

“Let’s see what other strategies your elder brother has. No matter how good the national policy is, it must be implemented.……”

Zhu Yuanzhang whispered, and listened carefully to the conversation in the room.

And at this time.

Zhu Heng in the Zen room said:”Know yourself and the enemy, and you will be invincible in a hundred battles. If you want to attack Japan, you must first study Japan.””

“What do you know about attacking Japan?”

Speaking of this, Zhu Di frowned and said:”The most important thing in fighting Japan is the naval battle.”

“But my Ming Dynasty is not good at naval battles.”

That’s right!

The Ming Dynasty was founded on water warfare.

But water warfare and naval warfare are completely different concepts.

Zhu Di���As a general, he naturally does not dare to underestimate any enemy, let alone promise that he will win the naval battle.

But at this time, Zhu Heng smiled slightly, nodded happily and said,”That’s right, I didn’t underestimate the enemy. That’s a good point.””

“But you were wrong about one thing”

“Contrary to what you think, in fact, compared to Japan, we are the best at naval warfare.”

Zhu Di was stunned.

Zhu Heng spoke and pointed out the core in one sentence:”The core of naval warfare is equipment, that is, sea ships.”

“But in fact, it is different from what you think. Japanese ships are not even worthy of carrying shoes for the Ming Dynasty!

Zhu Di was dumbfounded:”Aren’t they an island country? How could it be…Have you ever been to Japan?””

“Never been”

“Then how do you know they don’t have big boats?

Zhu Di frowned and said in an admonishing tone:”If you look down on your enemy on the battlefield and become complacent, you will get bored and perish.”

Zhu Heng shook his head and smiled:”It’s not me who underestimates Japan, it’s you who underestimates Ming Dynasty!””

“Do you know what it means to build a ship that can carry a thousand people?”

Zhu Di, Yao Guangxiao, and Zhu Yuanzhang and others outside the Zen room were all slightly stunned when faced with this question.

Zhu Di said in confusion:”Isn’t he just a craftsman?”

“is not it?”

Zhu Heng shook his head and said slowly:”You said it lightly, but you have been living in the Ming Dynasty, and you are accustomed to some of the miracles created by the Ming Dynasty.”

“But I don’t know what’s behind it……” at this time.

Zhu Heng looked at the nautical chart on the table and said calmly:”We need to build ships that can fight in oceans.”

“First, you need to issue an order to summon tens of thousands of skilled shipbuilders and their families from across the country to gather in the capital and station them for a long time to prepare to build ten large ships that can carry a thousand people.”
