In this era, sailing relies on inheritance and experience.
Just like the great voyages of Westerners at this time, it was by no means accomplished overnight.
They need to open up new routes, first arriving on the African continent, then arriving at the Cape of Good Hope, the southernmost tip of Africa, and then continuing to create new routes along existing routes to reach India and Asia.
No one can pat their chests and dare to say that they can directly reach the ends of the earth without the experience of predecessors and the opened channels.
Zheng He¡¯s seven voyages to the West also gradually went deeper and deeper into the west, before finally reaching the farthest reaches of Africa and the Great Food. This does not mean that he can reach there with just one fleet voyage.
Even when Zheng He went to the Western Seas, the Yuan Dynasty had just collapsed and there was no maritime ban in the Yuan Dynasty. Therefore, the court could still get a lot of information from large food merchants. Now, after many years of maritime ban, the only information is completely lost due to the negligence of the Ministry of War. disappear.
Daming is like a man who has a strong body, but can only sigh in despair.
Unless we fund one voyage after another, and spend ten, twenty, or thirty years slowly gaining experience and opening up new routes.
But¡¡
Now, can you still wait?
Emperor Hongzhi sighed, feeling heartbroken.
He couldn't wait any longer.
¡°In other words, tens of millions of soldiers and civilians can¡¯t wait any longer.
It¡¯s such a pity that you clearly saw a treasure mountain but couldn¡¯t get close to it.
What¡¯s more, all the work has begun. The imperial court attaches great importance to it. All ministries are coordinating. The lower states and counties have recruited countless civilians
Emperor Hongzhi's eyes turned red. He stared at Fang Jifan and asked extremely carefully: "I only want to ask you one thing. Does your disciple Xu Jing really know the route?"
All hopes are now placed on a sage.
A little sage, a damn crow's mouth, has now become the last belief that Emperor Hongzhi has to support him.
Looking at Emperor Hongzhi with a solemn expression, Fang Jifan was shocked.
He knew very well that what he said next would be responsible.
This is the implication.
¡°If I vouch for Xu Jing, then the follow-up work of the voyage to the West will continue. After all, the imperial court has reached a dilemma!
Stalling all work will inevitably mean heavy losses. Continuing to promote going to sea will mean investing more money and food. It would be great if Xu Jing can really find a new route, but if he cannot find it, it will be a huge trap. All the money and food, and the efforts of countless soldiers and civilians may be in vain.
Even Fang Jifan, who was serious here, took a breath of cold air. He was a little hesitant, and he couldn't help but start asking himself, is Xu Jing, that scumbag, reliable?
This guy seems to be very lustful.
Perhaps at this time, his fleet has also been destroyed and buried in the belly of the fish.
Thinking of this, as his mentor, Fang Jifan felt a little touched, and his heart hurt a little.
Butare you just shaking your head?
" If you shake your head, you don't need to take any risks. After all, it is the responsibility of the Ministry of War now.
"However, if he said that Xu Jing was just a joke, then Fang Jifan was convinced that all the voyages to the West would come to an abrupt end and the Ming Dynasty would return to its original state.
At this time, in the far west, explorations into the depths of the ocean have begun again and again. Westerners have already taken the first step. They have reached the Cape of Good Hope, and soon they may reach the Philippines, even Ryukyu, and Macau.
They have reached America and discovered vast spaces.
The Ming Dynasty is one step behind. Next, it will fall behind every step. This great country is at a crossroads, and there is no time to waste.
Why¡¡
Fang Jifan sighed in his heart. Fang Jifan was very conflicted, but in his opinion, the voyage to the West must continue no matter what. Even if someone was shattered to pieces, Fang Jifan would still take the gamble.
The boy who bets on Xu Jing, as well as Xu Jing¡¯s father, Xu Jing¡¯s father¡¯s father, his father¡¯s father¡¯s father, and several generations of the Xu family relied on their research on the ancient books of the Song, Yuan, and Emperor Wen periods. spectrum.
Although Fang Jifan has always suspected that this family is pretending to be cool in the name of studying the Song and Yuan Dynasties.
But the arrow is on the string and must be fired!
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?After making this difficult decision, he seemed to be exhausted.
In fact, everyone in Nuan Pavilion is betting.
Fang Jifan placed a bet, the prince followed, and Emperor Hongzhi was determined to follow these two guys and play hard. As a result, all the officials in the court were directly packed up by Emperor Hongzhi and sent to the gambling table.
But now that he had made up his mind, Emperor Hongzhi waved his hand and said: "The fault of this matter lies with the officials of the Ministry of War. If we investigate carefully, if these people are found to be involved in dereliction of their duties, they will not be lenient. Ma Qing's family ¡¡±
Ma Wensheng's face was still pale and he said tremblingly: "I'm here."
Emperor Hongzhi said: "This is not your fault. I have clear rewards and punishments, and I will not express my anger at you. But from now on, the Ministry of War must not make any mistakes again. Not only the Ministry of War, but also all the ministries must be well organized. This year, I will order the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Civil Affairs. The Metropolitan Procuratorate conducts inspections in Beijing to evaluate officials in various ministries, and those who have neglected their duties will be fired."
Ma Wensheng looked ashamed and ashamed, and said quickly: "I thank you for your grace."
