Since it has been mentioned, Tang Shaozhe plans to complete the final conclusion. He has been preparing for these things for a long time.

After almost completing these reforms, his revision of the Ming Dynasty was basically completed. In the future, the Ming Dynasty was left to conquer the world and fight continuously, and there was no need to worry about those small problems.

Anyway, there are all the weapons and organizations that should be configured for the Ming Dynasty, and if you still can't fight the battle to conquer the world, you will be speechless.

"Your Majesty, I wonder what you think about the domestic transportation situation?" The National Normal University did not speak, but once he opened his mouth, he would throw out the huge propositions and scare people.

However, Zhu Di also knew his habits and did not show any discomfort: "Well, transportation?"

After thinking about it for a while, the emperor recalled most of the situation. However, this proposition was too big, and even Zhu Di didn't know what specific content Tang Shaozhe wanted to say.

"What are the great opinions of the National Normal University? Why don't you tell me about it? Could it be that the National Normal University has a good idea again?"

"After His Majesty moved the capital, although he calmed down all parts of the northern border of the Ming Dynasty, it also brought great trouble. The most significant problem is that the capital is now large in population and consumes extremely huge resources!"

Zhu Di said nothing about this, then nodded and admitted, "Oh, if you have any benefits, you will suffer from disadvantages. After all, the harmony of yin and yang will not be as satisfactory as possible!"

The fact that Tang Shaozhe mentioned specifically refers to Zhu Di moving the capital from Jinling to Yanjing, the original Yanwang Mansion.

This has significant national defense significance for defending the attack of the grassland nomadic offensives on the northern border. It can stabilize various crisis situations on the northern border for the Ming Dynasty and truly stabilize the Ming regime.

Zhu Yuanzhang enfeoffed Zhu Di in Yanjing to defend against the military forces of the remnants of the Mongolian and Yuan dynasties in the northern frontier.

But who knew that His Highness of the King of Yan returned to Jinling in a Jingnan battle and ascended the throne directly.

This was awful. Although Jinling was in a row and tiger-like position, it was prosperous in the Six Dynasties, it could be regarded as an excellent capital location. At this time, the economic center of China's national economy had shifted from the north to the south, and the establishment of the capital in Jinling was in line with the national conditions at that time.

However, if His Highness of the King of Yan stayed in the Golden Powder Capital of the Six Dynasties, what if the remnants of the Mongol Yuan on the northern border were in trouble again?

Anyway, His Highness of Yan is worried that he will enfeoff a prince in Yanjing to guard the border. Who can guarantee that there will be no next sanctuary?

Zhu Di was worried that others would guard Yanjing, but the remnants of the Mongol Yuan on the northern border had to be guarded, so he had to move the capital and simply moved the capital north to Yanjing, which saved these worries.

However, after solving this problem, new problems emerged. Basically, during the Song Dynasty, China's economic center had shifted from the north to the south for thousands of years. The north had been overdeveloped, and soil erosion was too severe. What's more, many wars and chaos occurred frequently, which destroyed the ecological balance of the north very seriously.

This led to the geographical advantages of the South beginning to show its power from behind. Whether at the economic or academic level, the North is now lagging behind the South. Apart from political and military significance, the North has no advantage over the South.

So Zhu Di moved the capital to Yanjing, and then millions of people gathered in the capital.

The huge resource consumption generated by a massive population can make any minister of the Ministry of Revenue feel troubled.

Just food, if you want to meet the demand of millions, it is an astronomical figure, not to mention the demand for hundreds of thousands of soldiers that followed. Although Zhu Yuanzhang's military household policy claimed that he could raise millions of soldiers without the treasury spending a penny and a grain of rice, in fact, it was nonsense.

Even the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty can keep going like beggars. In fact, in most cases, they can barely get enough food and clothing in the hands of generations of military generals.

But even if you can have enough food and clothing, will these generals just need to eat and wear warmth and be over? They are training to fight. Do they not need a series of equipment such as war horses, weapons, bows and arrows, armor?

It is basically a dream to rely solely on the north to supply these losses.

Including the food mentioned above, most of the materials need to be transported from the south to the north to ensure the various people's livelihood and military needs in the capital. The economy in the north has long been greatly damaged, and it is difficult to meet itself.

Only when we are transferred from the south can we maintain the normal operation of the capital. Otherwise, we will wait for the government to go bankrupt!

But the traffic conditions in the Ming Dynasty were really not good, and they could even be described as "bad".

Hundreds of years later, the country promoted the construction of infrastructure on a large scale, and various slogans of "building roads first if you want to be rich" were shouted to the extreme. Then, the huge investment was basically improved, and the transportation conditions in the country were basically improved. The world's top railway network and the road network that was almost second only to North America. Then the economy took off and created a miracle of the world's factories.

However, the Ming government had no money at all. It was just beggars compared with the previous Song Dynasty.

Hundreds of years later, the government was rich, and it was basically supported by a wide variety of commercial taxes. Agricultural taxes accounted for a very small part, and later the agricultural tax that had been passed down for thousands of years in China was even abolished.

But the Ming Dynasty only relied on some agricultural taxes, which were not required to pay taxes at all, which led to the heavy burden of self-cultivation farmers. If they were a little bit of natural disaster, they would not be able to bear it.

However, self-cultivated farmers cannot afford taxes and go bankrupt, and their own land will only fall into the hands of the powerful or gentry class, so the number of self-cultivated farmers will decrease, but the tax required by the treasury cannot be reduced, so they can only pass on the excess to other self-cultivated farmers to bear more.

Originally, the farmer was heavy, but after the increase, it was completely unable to afford it. So he went bankrupt and passed on to the remaining self-cultivated farmers.

Under the vicious cycle, it will eventually lead to a bottom-up war of resistance. This is how Li Zicheng got up.
