Introduction to "Yongle: The Roar of the Forbidden Dragon Shocks the World"
The modern soul accidentally traveled to Zhu Di, the king of Yan in the early Ming Dynasty. At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang was still alive and Zhu Biao was healthy. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, there were internal and external troubles: the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty were spying on the northern border, undercurrents of factions in the court were surging, and overseas countries were not yet aware of the majesty of the Eastern Dragon.
Relying on his vision and wisdom beyond the times, Zhu Di quietly laid out plans in Peiping: reorganizing and training troops, innovating armaments, forging an iron-blooded army with a new signaling system and coordinated tactics; promoting agriculture and trade, promoting high-yielding crops, opening up Tianjin Wei Port, and building a trade network connecting Korea and Nanyang. He impressed Lan Yu in the military training ground, won the support of Xu Da and Liu Bowen in the court, was favored by Empress Ma and assisted by Xu Miaoyun, and was able to play step by step in the political chess game of the Hongwu Dynasty.
When the Hu Weiyong case broke out, he cleverly avoided trouble but secretly helped Zhu Yuanzhang to clear up the imperial court; the struggle for the throne was beginning to emerge, but he stuck to his duty but could not hide his edge. As the foundation of Peiping gradually stabilized, he personally led the army to defeat the Northern Yuan Dynasty, surrendered Nahachu, and was granted the title of King of Yan for his outstanding military exploits. During Zheng He's voyages to the West, he helped open up ocean routes, sold silk and porcelain from the Ming Dynasty to foreign lands, and attracted envoys from all countries to come to the DPRK.
After ascending the throne, Zhu Di used the title "Yongle" to continue the afterglow of the prosperous Hongwu era: he compiled the "Yongle Dadian" and forged ancient and modern classics; he established Nuergandusi and incorporated Japan as a province to stabilize the territory; he sent Zheng He to the Western Seas seven times to establish a tribute system with the Ming Dynasty as the core. Yao Guangxiao's strategy, Xia Yuanji's financial management, and Yu Qian's uprightness jointly built the talent cornerstone of the court; Shenjiying's artillery, the innovation of hydraulic spinning wheels, and the promotion of double-cropping rice pushed Ming Dynasty to the pinnacle of technology and economy
