The cabinet chief Gao Gong wrote in his memorial that he hoped the emperor would return to the palace as soon as possible. The cabinet had already piled up many memorials waiting for the emperor's approval.
In addition to urging Zhu Yijun to return to the capital, another letter came from Hai Rui, the Minister of Works.
Hai Rui had been ordered to lead workers to the north of Liao to build a fortress and a warhorse road. The construction was completed two months ahead of schedule.
Liao Bei Fortress had already been built. The barbarians around Liao Bei Fortress had joined the Ming Empire. There were as many as 100,000 Vikings. Because they were influenced by Han culture, they used Chinese as their mother tongue and were easy to tame.
Zhu Yijun directly approved the memorial.
One, order Hai Rui to return to the capital.
Second, disband the North Korean army.
Third, he ordered Li Chengliang, commander of Liaodong, to come to the capital to report.
Fourth, the establishment of the north of Liao, the north of Liao indigenous people into the Ming household registration, the new north of Liao governor, north of Liao governor, north of Liao commander three positions.
After Zhu Yijun read the two memorials, he decided to return to the capital.
The purpose of inspecting the Ming Navy had been achieved. Now, it was time to return to the capital to deal with government affairs. As for how to attack the pirates, he needed to plan carefully.
After all, landing on the island was different from naval warfare. Landing on the island was very troublesome. The most troublesome thing was that it was not a pirate island. It was not a terrain, so it was very easy for the pirates to target it.
The sea battle could be crushed and zero casualties could be achieved, but the landing battle was a hand-to-hand battle, a life and death battle. This required Zhu Yijun to plan carefully, or else the loss would outweigh the gain.
Just as Zhu Yijun was about to rest, the system's notification sounded frequently.
More than 50% of the Japanese pirates 'ships have been lost…EXP 100, telescope design obtained.
More than 60% of the pirate ships have been lost…EXP 100, Steam Engine Design obtained.
More than 70% of the pirate ships have been lost…EXP 100, obtained smokeless gunpowder blueprint.
……
This battle was a bit too much of a bully. In front of the mighty Ming Navy, the pirates were powerless to fight back…
It wasn't that the pirates weren't strong, but that they didn't have advanced artillery. They wanted to engage in a boarding battle, but Qi Jiguang didn't give them the chance.
Zhu Yijun looked at the rewards given by the system and felt a little excited. These technologies were the technologies that warships needed the most. Now, the Ming Empire already had the technology to forge steel warships, as well as advanced steel smelting technology.
However, steel warships required a lot of power. The current hybrid ships with artificial power and wind power could not maintain the speed of steel warships at all...
Only with steam engine technology could one have steel warships.
Now, Zhu Yijun was the first to obtain the steam engine design and telescope design, which was decades earlier than Europe. If Zhu Yijun had not intervened, the steam engine would not have appeared in decades, and steel warships would not have appeared on the ocean in 150 years!
Zhu Yijun had already decided that after returning to the capital, he would set up a Craftsman Bureau to train craftsmen who were good at manufacturing and research.
The technology he obtained from the system had to be developed as soon as possible. He could not let the West seize the initiative.
……
That night, Zhu Yijun slept very soundly. He had already started planning for the invasion of the Japanese pirates. There was only one way to eliminate the Japanese pirates forever, and that was to destroy the country of the Japanese pirates.
They would deal with the Japanese pirates like how they dealt with the Jianzhou Jurchen.
……
The next day, the sky was clear and the storm was calm.
Last night, Qi Jiguang had already led the Ming Navy back to Tanggu Port. After this test, he had already figured out the details of the Wei Nation. Next, Qi Jiguang would implement his own blockade plan.
He wanted to completely cut off the pirate ships and trap all the pirates on the island, preventing them from doing business.
Zhu Yijun summoned Qi Jiguang and after praising him, he led his troops back to the capital.
Qi Jiguang saw that the Emperor had left and the huge stone in his heart was finally lifted. Every day the Emperor was outside, he was worried. Now that the Emperor was going back to the capital, he naturally sent him off.
Two days later.
When Zhu Yijun arrived in the capital, the civil and military officials were already waiting outside the door. When Zhu Yijun's dragon carriage appeared in the sight of these officials, they hurriedly ran over. Their hearts, which had been clenched for several days, finally settled.
After Zhu Yijun rested for a day, he went up to the hall to discuss matters!
It had just drizzled last night, and the weather was cool.
All the officials were waiting outside the Meridian Gate for the court session to begin.
Although the little emperor was young, he was very conscientious in governing the country. For the sake of the country, the little emperor had also put in a lot of effort. The ministers no longer treated the emperor as a young man.
After three whips, the civil and military officials split into two rows and entered the meeting hall.
Zhu Yijun was already sitting on the dragon throne, his hands resting on the handles of the throne as he stared at the civil and military officials of His Highness.
The current Zhu Yijun already had a very heavy dragon's might. After the civil and military officials kowtowed to the Emperor, they stood up and bowed, not daring to look at the Emperor.
"If you have a book, report it as soon as possible. If you don't, withdraw from court!"
"This subject has a great foundation!"
Gao Gong was the first to step forward.
"Speak!"
Zhu Yijun said. Gao Gong said,"Your Majesty has spent a lot of money on your travels these days. The government affairs in the court are exhausted. I ask Your Majesty to prioritize the country and not travel far!”
Zhu Yijun hadn't even sat on the dragon throne when the cabinet's chief assistant actually consulted the emperor first.
The other ministers said in unison,"Your Majesty, please put the country first."”
Zhu Yijun did not respond to the words of the officials. He knew that these officials were doing this for his own good. After all, he was in a high position and there were many people eyeing his position.
"I know. Is there anything else?”
"Your Majesty, since Your Majesty ascended the throne, Your Majesty has already launched three wars. Although two of them were forced to fight back, they also caused casualties. Your Majesty, please rest and recuperate…"
Gao Gong said the words in his heart.
He hoped that His Majesty would not start another war. Although they had won two major wars, they had also consumed a lot of manpower and financial resources. If they fought with the Wei Nation now, the people would be very tired of war.
In Gao Gong's opinion, His Majesty had just ascended the throne, so he should stabilize the world and bring benefits to the world. Now that the world was settled, it was time to bring benefits to the people.
Zhu Yijun listened to Gao Gong's words and thought to himself,"Did this Gao Gong receive some guidance from someone? Why did he suddenly change from a radical to a conservative…His style of doing things has become gentle.”
However, Gao Gong's advice also hit Zhu Yijun's heart. Now that the overall situation had been set, the surrounding countries of the Ming Dynasty had been completely destroyed. Now, it was time to develop the economy and enjoy a short period of peace.
……
The Mongolian forces were greatly weakened, the Jurchen in Jianzhou were destroyed, and the Ming Navy was established. The Japanese pirates could not leave the Wei Nation. Under Zhu Yijun's command, the Ming Empire welcomed the Wanli revival!
