The Ziding River Prefecture was developing rapidly, and the Ming army's influence in the East Victory Divine Continent was also rapidly spreading to the east and south along with the mining of the mine.
In front of a huge river.
Zhu Quan tightened his reins." This should be enough. After we leave, who knows how many years it will take for that Zhu Gaochi kid to reach this place."”
Zhu Zhi waved his horsewhip and said,"This river is really big."。”
"Yes, we have been walking for several months. At first glance, this river is only longer than the Yangtze River, not shorter. Moreover, it should be wider than the Yangtze River!”
Zhu Quan's gaze was solemn.
"Tell me, the climate here is suitable, the products are abundant, the population is large, and the tribes are too complicated to count. What have they been doing for the past few thousand years?”
"Why didn't they develop a powerful country?!”
Zhu Quan pointed at the river in front of him. This was truly a huge river. Zhu Quan and the others had set off from the Purple Calming River Prefecture. After finding this river, they had followed it for several months.
They had annexed and killed countless local tribes. They were preparing to return, but they had not reached the end of the river.
In the future, the Mississippi-River had a drainage area of three million square kilometers, while the Yangtze River had a drainage area of only 1.8 million square kilometers.
The gap between the two sides was really huge.
However, water could carry a boat but also capsize it. The river gave humans life but could also rage at any time and take away people's lives.
Even today, floods and mountain torrents still existed. Once they appeared, they would take away people's lives and wealth.
"This is a good place. When the time comes, if the old master makes me king, I will choose this place and move a million people from the Ziding River Prefecture!”
"This is my kingdom!"
Zhu Quan had a smile on his face. This river was truly an opportunity.
Zhu Zhi shook his head." The old man loves you so much. Why would he seal you overseas?"？”
"Men, erect the monument!" Zhu Quan didn't answer Zhu Zhi. Back when they were drifting on the sea, Zhu Xiong Ying said that he would give Dongying to Zhu Zhi as his fief.
And this sentence directly exposed Zhu Xiong Ying's intention to become a king overseas.
He shouted to the Assistant Defense Army beside him, and some of them immediately scattered in search of the huge rock.
Good heavens, Zhu Quan hadn't even done anything yet, and he was already prepared to erect a monument.
"From today onwards, this river will be called Ming Quan River. Ming as in Ming, Quan as in Zhu Quan, and Jiang as in Jiang He!”Zhu Quan had truly chosen this river.
Set up a monument and set up a biography.
The inscription was written on it.
"At the beginning of the twelfth month of the twenty-third year of the Hongwu reign, the seventeenth prince of the Hongwu reign, Quan. He reined in his horse here and erected a monument. The name of this river is Mingquan River.”
"If I am lucky in this life, I will be the ruler of the East Continent. The stele is the palace, and the river is the city wall!”
Because it was a sudden idea, the inscription was not rigorous, and there was nothing to study. The main meaning was to say.
He, Zhu Quan, had erected a monument here in the twelfth month of the twenty-third year of Hongwu, naming the river the Mingquan River.
In the future, if he had the opportunity to come to the East Continent, the location of this stone tablet would be the place where the palace was built!
It was simple and sloppy.
Zhu Zhi saw that Zhu Quan had done all of this and sighed,"We're about to return. Do you have any thoughts?”
"Thoughts? What do you think? He hoped that the sea would be calm.”
Zhu Quan's voice fell.
Zhu Zhi opened his mouth and said," Forget it. Telling you is also playing the lute to a cow. It's better to return to the Purple Calming River Prefecture first. It will take at least four months to rush back from here.”
"If we encounter cannibals on the way, we'll have to waste time again!”
Zhu Quan and Zhu Zhi, the two brothers led their troops out. Of course, they did not come to survey the wind, earth, and power. They brought their own goals.
Attack, take revenge, and kill all the cannibals that they could find.
Speaking of which, there were quite a number of cannibals in the East Victory Divine Continent. In the past year, they had killed at least 100,000 cannibals.
Destroy and burn dozens of nests.
These defense troops killed the cannibals with their own hands. Not only did they not feel guilty, but they also felt that they were enforcing justice on behalf of the heavens.
To be able to join the defense army, one had to have a good foundation in Chinese, be able to understand the orders of the officers, understand the flag language, and be extremely supportive of the Confucian culture.
After all, Zhu Xiong Ying and the rest had just arrived and lacked firearms. If they really relied on knives, spears, and sticks, the tens of thousands of Ming soldiers that Zhu Xiong Ying had brought with him would not be able to control the nearly one million survivors of the Shang Dynasty.
Zhu Quan and Zhu Zhi embarked on the journey back to the base camp.
......
Another four months passed in the blink of an eye.
It was March of the 24th year of Hongwu.
There were less than three months left before Zhu Xiongying's scheduled return.
Zhu Xiong Ying looked at Zhu Quan and Zhu Zhi who had rushed back.
In the military camp.
Zhu Xiongying looked at his two uncles and said,"How many people have you killed?”
"Not much."
"Who told you that we brothers killed someone?”
"That's right!"
"I said I didn't kill him, so I didn't kill him!"
The two brothers echoed each other, not giving Zhu Xiongying a chance to speak at all.
Glancing at it, Zhu Xiongying said in a deep voice,""Those survivors of the Shang Dynasty who were driven here by you looked at you as if they had seen a ghost or a god of death."
"A stroke of fear, and you still say that you didn't kill anyone?”
Zhu Quan pouted and said indifferently,"About 170,000 to 180,000!"
"Who asked them to dare to assassinate the king? These people deserve to die!”
"Yes, damn it!"
The two brothers continued to gang up to stir up trouble.
Zhu Gaochi bowed and said," Big Brother, Uncle Fifteen and Uncle Seventeen killed cannibals. These cannibals are cruel by nature and feed on humans. So what if they were killed?"”
"Even if we don't kill them today, we will kill them in the future. If we kill them today, it will be a blessing to the survivors of Yinshang who will die in their hands in the future.”
Before Zhu Xiongying could lecture her, Xu Miaojin said,"If it's a cannibal, it's a cannibal. If it's not a cannibal, it has to be a cannibal.”
"Do you really want to drag them out and kill them to ease the fear of the survivors of the Shang Dynasty?？”
Hearing this, Zhu Xiong Ying finally softened.
Kill Zhu Quan and Zhu Zhi? What a joke.
"We can't do this in the future. Those normal survivors of the Shang Dynasty are all working people. You two can be grounded for three months!”
Zhu Xiong Ying said.
