Of course, Zhu Xiong Ying also had his own selfish motives. He hoped that he would take over an empire that was strong in all aspects, instead of having to do everything himself.
If the old man could make more, he should let the old man do more. After all, he was full of energy.
Just think about it. A seventy-year-old man could give birth to a princess and give birth to an aunt younger than his own son for the historical Renzong Zhu Gaochi. One could know how vigorous the old man's experience was.
As for why Zhu Gaochi was compared, it was because when the princess got married, the Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi, who had been in charge of the country for more than ten years, personally sent her to the wedding.
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned. After being messed with by Zhu Xiongying, he was no longer in the mood to read the memorial. He looked at the child kneeling beside him.
Zhu Yuanzhang revealed a kind smile and said,""Is what you said true?”
"It's absolutely true, and it's not just that. If Imperial Grandfather wants to send people overseas to search for them, he also has to prevent these people from staying there and not coming back!”
"Because the place where these three crops are grown is a true slash-and-burn farming, a tribal era with backward development. There are rumors that they are survivors of the Shang Dynasty, but I don't know if it's true or not.”
"However, there is one more point. There are no countries anywhere. Compared to them, they should be in the Three Emperors period. The true slash-and-burn cultivation is more than thousands of years behind the Great Ming Dynasty.”
"Once the person leading the army has the intention of rebelling, it will be a loss for the Imperial Court to establish a kingdom there.”
Zhu Xiongying explained the continent on the other side of the ocean clearly.
Zhu Yuanzhang was puzzled for a moment before he said,"Then do you know how to get there?”
Zhu Xiongying's gaze was deep. He paused for a moment and said hesitantly,"Imperial Grandfather, please give me the map!"
Zhu Yuanzhang put his hands in his sleeves and shouted to the eunuch outside,""Send the map!"
"Yes ~"
The young eunuch moved swiftly and quickly brought the map over.
It was laid on the floor tiles of the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
Zhu Xiong Ying looked at the markings on the map and recalled.
After a while, Zhu Xiong Ying held a thin stick in his hand and rowed along the northeast coast.
"Imperial Grandfather, for safety reasons, your grandson believes that our navy should avoid going directly into the ocean when heading overseas. It will undoubtedly be much more convenient to go along the coast!”
"With the current naval fleet, there is absolutely no problem with safety when patrolling along the coast. Until the end!"
"According to the map, it should be here!”Zhu Xiongying traced the distance between two tiles on the map and continued,"We should be able to see the other side of the ocean!”
"According to your grandson's speculations, this sea channel should be frozen. Moreover, it's not impossible for it to be frozen for 30,000 feet. Therefore, our ship cannot directly cross the sea channel!”
"We have to follow the route of the straits all the way to the east. If there are no accidents, the deepest part of Liaodong's North Sea will not exceed five hundred miles from the other side of the ocean!”
"According to the slowest speed, five days is enough to cross this sea area. Once we arrive here, our army doesn't have to hurry to land. We can sail south along the coast and reach our destination in about a month!”
"According to my calculations, I can make a voyage once every three years. Moreover, this route is safe!”
Zhu Xiong Ying's expression was firm. This was the only feasible method he could think of.
He didn't have the time to learn from Old Fourth Zhu to build a ship. Even if he spent so much money, Zhu Yuanzhang wouldn't agree to it. The Ming Dynasty's ship wanted to cross the Pacific Ocean.
That was undoubtedly to directly destroy the Great Ming Navy.
Even Zheng He's fleet might not be able to cross the Pacific Ocean. This was determined by the problem of ships.
However, according to Zhu Xiongying's plan.
Going north along this coast, going through the Bering Strait, and going south along the west coast of the New World, finding a suitable angle to land, three years, a round trip, was enough!
They were not going to establish a colony. What Zhu Xiongying wanted was the crops on the New World.
A little bit of migration might be fine, but if they wanted to migrate on a large scale, they would have to wait at least a hundred years later, when the population of the Ming Dynasty really exploded.
However, Zhu Xiongying could afford to wait. Starting from the 20th year of Hongwu, a hundred years later, Colombus should not have been born yet.
By the time he arrived at the New World, the Great Ming Dynasty would have already enfeoffed countless vassal kings and migrated millions of people, turning the New World into the second Great Ming Dynasty.
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was moved and said,""What you said is true, but how can grandfather believe you?”
"Grandpa, look at how much grandson has said.。”Zhu Xiong Ying stopped talking and looked at the eunuch."Go pour some tea!"
"Yes!"
The young eunuch hurriedly left.
Zhu Xiong Ying continued," Your grandson's mouth is dry. This matter is absolutely true. If there's even half a lie, your grandson is willing to swear with his life!"”
Zhu Yuanzhang patted Zhu Xiongying's back and nodded."Then who do you think we should send? How many soldiers should we send?”
Zhu Xiong Ying paused and hesitated." Grandpa, you can choose for yourself. If you want me to recommend you, I'll recommend myself!"”
Zhu Xiongying cupped his hands and spoke.
Self-recommendation.
He wanted to personally make a trip to the Bering Strait.
He brought back the three main food crops that could benefit the people of Huaxia and secretly surveyed the topography of the New Continent.
He would choose some good places near mountains and rivers. After Zhu Yuanzhang died, he would directly send all these vassal kings over.
In his opinion, apart from the Emperor, Crown Prince, and Grand Sun, it would be best if all the sons of the future emperors were enfeoffed overseas.
At that time, the Son of Heaven would not have to guard the country gate, and the ruler would not have to die for the country. The Ming Dynasty could still pass on for ten thousand years. Even if there were changes in the Nine States, there were still countless Zhu Dynasties overseas, representing the existence of the Ming Dynasty.
It also represented the authority of the Han people overseas.
Perhaps, after 800 years, there would be no more Han people in this world, only the wise people.
Of course, that was all in the future. Who would know?
