Chapter 8 Zhu Di: Uncle-nephew friendship
【By now, I think you all already know this. 】

【This is the last loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty. 】

[A loyal and capable general who wants to save the Ming Dynasty! ]

【It is the famous conqueror in the history of Central Asia! 】

[Timur, commonly known as Timur the Lame! ]

tomorrow.

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw the name Timur, he was stunned at first.

Then suddenly laughed.

Who else does Zhu Yuanzhang think he is?

It turned out to be Timur.

Zhu Yuanzhang was quite familiar with Timur and the empire he founded.

He paid a lot of tribute to the Ming Dynasty.

He behaved quite respectfully.

Timur sent people to congratulate and pay tribute very early on.

It was the first Western country to recognize the Ming Dynasty as the orthodox Chinese nation.

Timur also wrote some flattering letters, and Zhu Yuanzhang received several of them.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang also knew that Timur was an ambitious man.

The purpose of making friends with the Ming Dynasty was only to replace the Mongolian rule on the grasslands.

But after all, he is far away.

It should not pose a threat to the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang never had any conflicts with Timur.

Live your own life!

Timur was willing to give face and pay tribute to Zhu Yuanzhang's Ming Dynasty.

Not bad.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not really regard him as a subordinate of the Ming Dynasty.

And now Tianmu actually says that Timur is the last loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty?

Do we have to send hundreds of thousands of troops to suppress the rebellious Zhu Di?
Isn't this a joke?
"Huh, who did I think it was? It turned out to be the ambitious Timur."

"If he really sends hundreds of thousands of troops to attack Zhu Di."

"Then I think saving the Ming Dynasty and supporting the country is just a title."

"Is his goal to imitate the Mongols and take over the Central Plains again?"

Theoretically.

It's thousands of miles away, it's free if you come here.

What a great figure Yelu Dashi was back then.

Didn’t the Eastern Expedition to the Jin Dynasty end in vain?
But Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it carefully.

I feel that if what Tianmu said is true, Timur never lost a battle in the 40 years since he started his army.

This beast is indeed a big threat.

After all, other countries don’t say that.

The fighting power of the khanates left behind by the Mongols, such as Chagatai Khanate and the Golden Horde, should not be underestimated.

It can be confirmed that Timur was indeed a good fighter.

And they have strong military force.

What if he attacked the Ming Dynasty under the banner of defeating the traitor Zhu Di and restoring the legitimate emperor?
Maybe it can really win over some people?
Zhu Yuanzhang thought about the situation he knew and planned to send more people to find out about Timur's situation in the near future.

We have to guard against it!
……

Sky
[After Zhu Di launched the Jingnan Campaign and successfully rebelled. ]

【Timur felt that the time had come to conquer the Ming Dynasty and restore the glory of the Mongol Empire.】

[Oh, sorry, the opportunity to pledge loyalty to the Ming Dynasty and save the Ming Dynasty has come.]

[Timur summoned the Ming envoy and announced:]

[Your Ming Dynasty Pig Khan betrayed his father and harmed his nephew. He is a big bastard! I will go and punish him! ]

[After years of preparation, Timur leads an army of 200,000, claiming to have 700,000! Launching an expedition! ]

[However, Timur died of illness on the way, and his last words were: Do not show weakness to the enemy! Hold tight... your swords! ]

[But it is clear that Timur's sons are not interested in an expedition to the Ming Dynasty. ]

【So Timur and his successors did not achieve their goal of saving the Ming Dynasty. 】

……

Zhu Yuanzhang was relieved when he saw the announcement on the sky curtain that Timur had died on the way.

After all, it is the fourth brother's business to rebel.

If foreign invaders were allowed to take advantage of the situation, it would be a real problem. Although Zhu Yuanzhang was confident in his son's military ability and the fighting power of the Ming soldiers.

But after all, Tianmu did not explain how Zhu Di came to power.

What if the civil war between Zhu Di and Yun Wen ended in a lose-lose situation?

In the end, the benefits were reaped by the barbarians from foreign races?
It's not impossible.

Now the sky curtain says that Timur died on the way.

Regardless of whether they could win or not, at least the Ming Dynasty was spared a big trouble.

Canopy.

[This is the story that has been circulated on the Internet, about the story of Timur, a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, who fought against the traitor Zhu Di.]

[Timur attacked Zhu Di on the grounds that Zhu Di, his uncle, bullied his nephew and stole the throne.]

【But the boomerang soon arrived. 】

【After Timur's death, the country fell into civil strife. 】

[In the end, it was also Timur's fourth son, Shah Rukh, who defeated his nephew and became the ruler of the Timurid Empire.]

[It was also the fourth uncle who seized the throne from the grandson. ]

【And our Yongle Emperor Zhu Di also showed his spirit of making everyone happy and sent a letter. 】

[“Your cousin, the Sultan, is your dear relative. You should keep in good terms with him. You should believe in my words and obey my orders without hesitation.”]

【Zhu Laosi taught Sha Laosi that uncles and nephews should be friendly and not bully the weak.】

[It’s a pity that when this letter arrives, Shaharu probably doesn’t have any nephews to show him the love and affection...]

This is where history gets interesting.

The sky screen video ends here.

The comments also poured out crazily for this interesting historical story.

"Zhu Di taught his uncle and nephew to be friendly? It made me laugh!"

"Ming is so lucky to have a loyal minister like Timur!"

"A die-hard elite Luo + a smart one, a real elite Luo who has done practical things, a real smart one who has done practical things."

"I saw someone say before that Timur was a die-hard Roman and Ming fan, I didn't believe it, but now I do. "

"Honestly, if Timur attacks, do you think Zhu Di can withstand it?"

"Haha! Timur is here, Zhu Di grabs his hood and throws it all over the floor!"

"Do you really think that Emperor Yongle ate shit?"

"What a pity! If Timur had come, Zhu Di would have probably taken him to Beijing to make him a Beijing dance king."

"Forgive him, he is 70 years old, and he is still dancing with a lame leg?"

"I admit that Timur is also very strong, but he can only be killed when he comes."

"Zhu Di! Emperor Yongle! The best war-taker of the Ming Dynasty! Are you kidding me?"

……

tomorrow.

After Zhu Yuanzhang watched this sky-high video about the story between Zhu Di and Timur.

He was still resentful of Zhu Di's usurpation of the throne.

But the anger has subsided a little.

After all, Zhu Di did not give away the Ming Dynasty for nothing.

"Emperor Yongle?"

"Could it be that the fourth guy is still doing well after the rebellion?"

"No! I know the Fourth is capable, but rebellion is rebellion!"

"If I don't give it to the Fourth Brother, the Fourth Brother cannot take it away."

……

Qin Dynasty.

Ying Zheng smiled, a smile of disdain.

At the beginning, seeing that the later Ming Dynasty unified the Chinese land meant that the Qin Dynasty did not last another thousand years.

Ying Zheng was a little annoyed.

But the foreshadowing of the Three Kingdoms period just now made Ying Zheng somewhat mentally prepared.

Is it possible that the Qin Dynasty could last for thousands of years, but is it just a luxury?

So when he saw the Ming Dynasty and confirmed that the Qin Dynasty would not last forever, Ying Zheng still suppressed his anger.

And see behind.

Looking at the Ming Dynasty that replaced the Qin Dynasty in later generations, it turned out that after the death of the founding emperor, the second generation lost the country!
It also made Ying Zheng disdainful of later dynasties.
