Chapter 350: Prince Zhu Biao returns and his reputation soars!
Japan, where the Ming army was stationed.
Zhu Biao looked at the thick stack of official documents in his hand and felt dumbfounded.
What is recorded here are the sources of various wealth, as well as the batch information of shipment.
There are even some plans for land use, as if the Ming Dynasty had re-canonized a Japanese king.
The reason why there is such a scene has to be said about Zhu Biao's previous policies.
After the completion of the slave trade, the Japanese resistance was indeed weakened.
But the profits brought by the slave trade also inspired Zhu Biao and Xu Da.
Originally, the looting was limited to treasures and weapons, but later, items such as wood and silk were also confiscated.
In order to declare to the Japanese people the determination of the Ming Dynasty to rule here, Zhu Biao even personally took the lead in counting "280" of the property in the palace and loading it on ships.
After losing the wealth, the palace, which was not large enough, looked extremely dilapidated.
The so-called murder is heart-breaking. After noticing the reaction of the locals, Xu Da simply suggested to Zhu Biao to burn the palace with fire to stop their thoughts of restoration.
Zhu Biao naturally had no interest in the dilapidated palace, so he directly agreed.
The fire burned all night. Many Japanese people witnessed the fire, but under the power of the Ming army, they did not dare to put out the fire or even cry.
The fire seemed to open a door, allowing the Ming army to have no scruples.
Soon, the soldiers spontaneously dug up the graves of common people first, and then the nobles.
The graves of almost all Japanese people who could be named in history or in local legends have been dug up.
It's just that this place is barren after all, and even for the gentry and nobles, the things in their tombs are very limited.
In the end, the royal cemetery came into the eyes of the soldiers.
Before the soldiers of the Ming Army started digging, they all thought that the royal family, known as the Millennium Lineage, should naturally have some treasures.
But when the excavation was completed, they were dumbfounded.
The imagined treasures did not appear, and many tombs only had tombstones and soil seals, but they were empty underneath.
So, amid a burst of scolding, the descendants of gods in the eyes of the Japanese people, the extremely sacred kings of Japan, were crushed and ashes were thrown away after countless years of death.
To save trouble, some soldiers simply burned the corpses and then mixed the ashes with soil to fill the deep pit.
This was originally just a search, but invisibly it became a means to destroy the Japanese people's faith.
When the people of Japan witnessed the palace being destroyed and the bones of the Medical King being burned.
All the legends that we were proud of in the past have been completely shattered.
Under absolute high pressure, almost no one dared to raise objections.
"Your Highness, I think it's almost time for us to go back."
Xu Da glanced at the document in Zhu Biao's hand and made a dumbfounding suggestion.
Zhu Biao came back to his senses and nodded slightly.
In fact, he had planned to leave for a long time. According to the current situation, even if the Ming Dynasty withdraws all its troops, I am afraid that these Japanese people will not be able to make any waves.
Without the intervention of the Ming army, these people would be no different from savages.
Some of the policies implemented by the Ming army here were actually inherited and upgraded during the reign of the Yuan people.
You can imagine what would happen if a village with a population of less than a hundred and a village that couldn't even produce a handful of iron tools tried to confront the army.
"Yes, according to the current situation, if we leave 30,000 people here, it should be enough to manage and maintain the operation of Japan.
"It's just that without Father's permission, if we evacuate so hastily, I'm afraid there will be trouble."
"Besides, my father wants to establish a new king of Japan. If he doesn't know Japan well, I'm afraid it won't work."
"I think the most appropriate way right now is to evacuate in batches."
After hearing this, Xu Da made a decision after thinking for a while.
"Your Highness, if you can trust me, we will divide our troops into two groups!"
Zhu Biao quickly asked: "Split the troops into two groups?"
Xu Da nodded and said: "Your Highness, please leave me 30,000 people and some food. You can return to Yingtian with the remaining wealth and 50,000 troops."
Zhu Benbin wanted to say something, but before he could speak, Xu Da stopped him with a gesture.
"You also know your Majesty's temper. If you are to be crowned king, it will naturally be the Zhu family. If you are not here, who can bear the temper and listen to the situation in Japan?"
"Besides, you are the prince and you can't be out all the time! There must be many things waiting for you to deal with in the court."
Having said this, Zhu Biao naturally couldn't refuse.
So the two immediately decided on some details after the division of troops. Xu Da personally wrote a memorial to introduce the military deployment of Japan to Zhu Yuanzhang, as well as his eagerness to look forward to the new king of Japan... …
Ten days later, Zhu Biao led 50,000 Ming troops to leave Japan in a mighty manner.
As for Yingtian, the court had already received the news.
In addition to arranging special personnel to wait at several ports, Zhu Yuanzhang also personally formulated a plan to welcome Zhu Biao.
On this day, Zhu Biao had just led his fleet to land, and someone immediately spread the news to the palace as quickly as possible.
When Zhu Yuanzhang got the news, he ignored any etiquette and directly ordered all officials to follow him out of the city to greet Zhu Biao.
Naturally, the officials didn't think there was anything wrong with such courtesy.
In fact, as early as the news of the Ming army's victory came out, no one in the court doubted that Zhu Biao's status as prince could be shaken.
If Zhu Biao had some shortcomings in the military before, then Japan and his party have obviously filled in this shortcoming.
On the outskirts of Yingtian Mansion, when Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhu Biao, his cloudy eyes were filled with tears.
This decisive emperor felt for the first time in his life what it meant to be unable to control one's emotions.
The father and son hugged each other for a long time, ignoring any royal etiquette and directly leaving the officials aside.
Later, Zhu Yuanzhang directly held Zhu Biao's hand, and father and son took a car back to the palace.
In front of Fengtian Gate, after the civil and military officials reorganized their positions according to their ranks, new problems followed.
According to the past, 0.9 Zhu Biao should be standing directly beside Zhu Yuanzhang.
But he was tired from traveling and traveling, and he was still wearing armor. With Zhu Biao's body and bones, he probably wouldn't be able to hold on for long.
But it would obviously not be appropriate to ask Zhu Biao to go back to bathe and change clothes, leaving all the officials to hang out.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Biao, and after hesitating for a long time, he made an astonishing decision.
"Your Majesty, thank you for your hard work. Today we have made a special decision. Your Majesty, please set up a chair beside us!"
As soon as these words came out, all the officials were shocked, but they quickly calmed down.
Obviously, Zhu Yuanzhang intended to gradually hand over his power and let Ming complete a transition as soon as possible.
For a time, Zhu Biao's reputation reached its peak, and even the common people felt that Zhu Biao would succeed to the throne in a few years.
