Great Ming: You Want Me to Retire? What Are You Crying About Now That Zhu Di Has Rebelled?

In the tenth year of Hongwu, Ye Xuan transmigrates!

He becomes a soldier in the Great Ming army.

With the System's help and his knowledge of history, Ye Xuan wipes out the Northern Yuan and marries Xu Miaojin.

Zhu Yuanzhang grants him the title Duke of Protecting the Nation and puts him in command of Great Ming's military forces.

In the thirty-first year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang dies, and Zhu Yunwen succeeds him.

As soon as he takes the throne, Zhu Yunwen forces Ye Xuan to retire from the military and hand over his troops.

He also exiles Ye Xuan to the southern frontier to serve as a county magistrate.

As someone who knows history, Ye Xuan understands that this is actually a good thing.

Now he can develop his own power without worry.

Ye Xuan then builds an arms factory, grows potatoes and sweet potatoes, and turns his county into the strongest in Great Ming.

But things go badly for Zhu Yunwen.

The Jingnan Campaign breaks out, and Zhu Yunwen is routed by Zhu Di and the other feudal princes.

He sends Ye Xuan twelve urgent imperial decrees.

"Duke of Protecting the Nation, come save me!"

Ye Xuan: "Heh. You forced me to retire, so why are you crying now that Zhu Di has rebelled?"
