Chapter 544 Goodbye, Emperor Dongzhou! Ask for a monthly ticket)
It turns out that it is not the "Eastern Zhou Emperor", but the Dongzhou Emperor of the East Continent!
Zhao Lun, who knew that he was going to be sent to Dongzhou Continent as the emperor, was stunned!
He worked hard for thirty years for the position of the Song Dynasty, but the country did not become the emperor and became the emperor directly. But he was not the emperor of the Song Dynasty, but the emperor of Dongzhou on the other side of the ocean. What is this?
No, is this a coincidence?
Zhao Lun had already thought of something wrong!
He was responsible for the ship to the Dongzhou Continent, and he was responsible for the recruitment and training of the sailors. He even managed the port to the Dongzhou Continent, and he was also a navy who was familiar with the ocean and the sea.
In addition, Zhao Ping came to Jiaozhou with Zhang Ziyan and more than 20,000 people from the entire 18th Army!
Coupled with Zhang Ziyan's soldiers, Zhao Ping, were not sent to carry out the "Xuanwu Gate Incident", but the kind father's official sent to deal with him, Zhao Lun. If Zhao Lun dared to resist, more than 20,000 soldiers from the 18th Army would be able to dispatch the rebellion immediately!
All of this was already done! And it was done more than 2 years ago!
Zhao Lu finally understood that he had never won the opportunity from the beginning!
Father! How could you, a father, plot against your own son like this? Zhao Lu felt so wronged. Father, I am still your own eldest son! How could you treat me like this?
"Brother, my father just appointed you as the emperor. Why don't you thank me?"
While Zhao Lun was still confused, his good brother Zhao Ping was already smiling and reminding him to thank him.
But how could Zhao Lun be willing to thank him? As soon as he thanked him, he would thank him to the Dongzhou Continent. And he would never return to the Song Dynasty to make a comeback. It was impossible to come back across the East Ocean, whether it was a peaceful return or a military force to fight back.
Just drifting from the east coast of the East Ocean (the west coast of the East Ocean) to the southeast of the Song Dynasty, drifting back along the westward waters would at least three months without land. If it weren't for the good navy that was used to wandering at sea, but the army officers and soldiers who were not used to the wind and waves at sea, they would have lost half their lives after wandering in the past three months, and it would be so weak that it would be difficult for people to walk. Without long-term rest and restorative training after getting ashore, it would be impossible to join the battle.
So it is impossible to even think about whether to fight the "Jingnan Battle" through the East China Sea.
Of course, it is basically impossible to attack the Emperor of Dongzhou from the Song Dynasty across the East Ocean. The soldiers who crossed the ocean to the east had to transport the ship for several months, and after arriving on the other side of the ocean, they would face huge difficulties in logistics supply.
The difficulty in recharge is because the Dongzhou continent is too desolate, and large areas of undeveloped land are filled with too few Han people there and are very scattered. Among them, there are not many people living in the coastal or Haikou area.
Most Han people on the East Continent live at the bottom of the "English Bay" (Seattle Vancouver), the West Sea Basin (Portland, 80,100 miles from the coastline), the Flood Valley (California Valley) and the Kingsoft Bay.
Only Kingsoft Bay is located in the coastal or Haikou area, but this area is a place where gold rushers are concentrated and there are not many farms that can provide replenishment.
The most developed agricultural place on the East Continent is on the east coast of the English Bay. It is the earliest place where the Great Song Dynasty expedition fleet landed, and the Zhaozhou fiefdom of the new continent of Zhao Lun, the Zhaozhou fiefdom of the new continent of Zhao Lun was in that area.
However, Zhaozhou is hundreds of miles from the entrance to Yinggeli Bay, and although it can be directly accessed by waterways, the waterways passed by are very rugged, with countless islands scattered, and some are still very narrow. It is very dangerous for hostile fleets to enter rashly.
Therefore, if Zhao Lun took his subordinates across the ocean to Dongzhou, he would not have to worry about Zhao Ping causing trouble for him in the future. He could live in his Zhaozhou city with peace of mind. For the losers in the struggle for the reserve, this ending would not be miserable.
But Zhao Lun is still unwilling to give up!
Zhao Lun knelt down for Zhao Kai again and cried and said, "Father, my son can't bear to leave his mother's grave, nor can he leave you! Woo woo."
Zhao Kai looked at this "biological son" kneeling in front of him and crying, but he couldn't sympathize with the emperor who had been a king for more than 30 years. He had long been heartbroken!
Moreover, Zhao Kai also knew the consequences of leaving Zhao Lun in the Song Dynasty!
Zhao Ping is likely to kill Zhao Lun and Zhao Lun's sons after his father's death. If Zhao Ping does not do this, Zhao Lun may also take risks and rebel and rebel.
These two sons have the ruthlessness of killing their brothers, and they also have the means to kill people!
Once they kill each other, the fine tradition of the Song Dynasty's father, the son, the son, the brothers, the respect and kindness will be destroyed. The future kings will have to go back to the old path of imprisoning the royal family. Once the royal family kings become prisoners, the future kings of the Song Dynasty will lose the ability and confidence to control a powerful army. At that time, the Song Dynasty will either go back to the old path of using literature to control martial arts, or be overthrown by the army that has lost control.
So Zhao Lun must leave, and the faster the better!
"Lun'er, stand up!" Zhao Kai smiled and said to his son, "Don't cry and cry, the Dongzhou Continent is extremely vast. No one knows how big it is now. Moreover, the land there is fertile, the climate is suitable, and gold is abundant. It is really a paradise on earth! From today on, you are the emperor of Dongzhou and the Emperor of Dong. The 1,000 treasure ships in Jiaozhou Bay will transport the capital to you. No matter what crime the prisoners in the Song Dynasty will commit, they will send them to Dongzhou in the future to cultivate and work for you.
In the future, there will be other princes of the Song Dynasty who have not won the position of national foundation, and they will also take their subordinates to cross the sea like you to settle down in Dongzhou. However, they cannot be the emperor, so they can only be a king under Dongzhou."
What? Will this competition for cheating people and reserve positions be held in the future? When Zhao Lu, who had already stood up, he glanced at his good brother Zhao Ping with malicious intentions. The next one who was cheated was your son!
Zhao Kai also looked at Zhao Ping with a smile and said, "Erlang, after your elder brother leaves, you will be the foundation of the country and will be the official family in the future!
And your sons will also have to experience and compete for reserve positions in the future. They must not be enclosed in the palace to develop cowardly and useless people. As for the son who cannot compete for reserve positions, they will be sent to Dongzhou and become the king of the vassal states under the emperor of Dongzhou."
His words were smiling at the beginning, but when he said this, it was already very serious. "This is the ancestral system I have set, and future generations must abide by it!"
Zhao Ping immediately stood up and bowed to Zhao Kai, "My son respects the teachings of his father and will educate his descendants to firmly guard this ancestral system in the future!"
Zhao Lunxin said: This ancestral system is really a scam! It’s still a scam for the descendants!
Zhao Kai nodded and looked at Zhao Lu again, "Dalang, Dongzhou is very vast and has very few people, and it is very far away from the Song Dynasty. Under normal circumstances, not many people are willing to travel far away. Even if some people go to Dongzhou from the Song Dynasty, they are mostly exiled to prisoners and gold-pickers who are obsessed with money. These people cannot support much of the situation.
If we want to turn the Dongzhou continent into an overseas country for our descendants of the Zhao family, we can only use the feudal methods of the Western Zhou Dynasty to enfeoff the princes who can win the throne. These princes have party members, retainers, customers, and slaves, which are enough to form power, occupy territory, and inherit the etiquette of our Chinese Taoist etiquette.
Hundreds of years later, Dongzhou will inevitably be the world of the Han people and the Zhao family!”
It turns out that Zhao Lun is really a "Zhou Emperor"! And he is also the founding emperor of the "Dongzhou World". Although he lost the opportunity to win the throne of the Central Plains, he could build a vast empire comparable to that of the Song Dynasty in a wider world.
Understanding his historical positioning, Zhao Lun sighed and finally bowed to his father, Zhao Kai: "My son Zhao Lu thanked him for his father, son Xu and his son were willing to lead his troops across the ocean to make our emperor and Song Dynasty, and to make the world again!"
Zhao Kai nodded with relief and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, it's my eldest son, Dongzhou, and it's up to you! I'll give you a month to gather people, and in a month you'll take them on 1,000 treasure ships to the Dongzhou Continent! If anyone among your subordinates doesn't have time to arrive in Jiaozhou within this month, just give me a list."
Those who boarded Zhao Lun's pirate ship had no choice but to run away, and they all had to pack up and go to the New World.
Zhao Kai then said, "Lun'er, I have been busy with military affairs and government affairs for more than 30 years and have become a little alienated from you. Now you are about to travel across the ocean, and I will not go anywhere. I will be with you in Jiaozhou for a month!
In addition, don’t be your Shandong Road appeasement envoy and governor of Jiaozhou anymore. Leave the dispatch to your twelfth uncle!"
Zhao Kai did not want to accompany his son? He just used this as an excuse to stay in Jiaozhou and stared at Zhao Lun until he boarded the treasure ship on the other side of the ocean.
In order to avoid Zhao Lun being confused and taking risks, Zhao Kai also took off Zhao Lun's official position and let his most trusted brother (the same father and mother) Zhao Zhi take over his position.
Now Zhao Lun not only lost the dispute over the throne, but also turned Zhao Kai into a powerless short prince. If he still wanted to taste the sweetness of power, he had to cross the ocean to Dongzhou as soon as possible, which was his there!
Zhao Lun understood Zhao Kai's thoughts, but he did not dare to expose the true face of this kind father. After all, he had not yet arrived in the New World! Zhao Lun, who could not offend the kind father Zhao Kai, had to continue to pretend to be a filial son and thanked Zhao Kai with gratitude.
Zhao Kai said to Zhao Ping again: "Ping'er, if you become an official in the future, do you know that Dongzhou Tianxia, which is the one who must support your elder brother, will you know?"
"My son remember." Zhao Ping had to follow the words of the kind father.
Zhao Kai seemed very satisfied. He still knew that there was an Atlantic Ocean on the east side of Dongzhou, and across the Atlantic Ocean was Europe.
