In 1402 AD, the 4-year-long cruel Jingnan War came to an end. Ming Taizu The fourth son of Zhu Yuanzhang, King Yan Zhu Di captured Nanjing, the capital of the Ming Empire at that time. The second orthodox heir of the Ming Empire, Zhu Yuanzhang Changsun, Emperor Hui of Ming Zhu Yunwen disappeared (some say those who died of self-immolation, and some say those who escaped did not care, but in the end they were not seen by people or bodies). No matter what Zhu Yunwen's whereabouts, the Ming Empire still ushered in its new era. Zhu Di entered Nanjing City as a victor. There was no doubt that Zhu Di became the new master of the Ming Empire. Zhu Di was forty-two years old at that time, in his prime.

Zhu Di abolished Zhu Yunwen's Jianwen year number and created his own dynasty name for Yongle . The magnificent Yongle era officially arrived. Just when Zhu Di was working hard with confidence, all the officials in Nanjing were rarely "hard". They regarded Zhu Di as the usurper. Only more than 30 of the hundreds of officials in Nanjing surrendered to Zhu Di. Some people are still loyal to Zhu Yunwen. Although Nanjing has changed hands and Jianwen has disappeared, they still cannot change their camps. In order to maintain his own country forever, Zhu Di raised his butcher knife and implemented large-scale physical elimination of these uncooperative officials. For a time, blood flowed into a river in Nanjing. Zhu Di used iron fist to stabilize the hard-won fruit of victory, but in Nanjing, he was in the city of Nanjing. The strange eyes of those people made it difficult for Zhu Di to let go. No matter what, the fact that he usurped the throne can no longer be erased. What will he face his father (Zhu Yuanzhang) and his elder brother ( Zhu Biao ) a hundred years later. .

Zhu Di's great talent and strategy, coupled with his deep guilt, Zhu Di urgently hopes to make some achievements to prove himself. He wants to prove to everyone in the world that he is the most suitable master of Ming . Zhu Di devoted all his energy to the prosperity of the Ming Empire. On the northern border of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di personally led the Ming army into the desert to attack forces such as Tartars, Wala, and other forces that threatened the Ming border, protecting the people of the Ming Dynasty. In Indochina Peninsula , Zhu Di appointed his best general, Zhang Fu, to recover the independent Vietnam since the fifth generation of , and rebuilt the Jiaozhi Province in Vietnam. The power of the Ming Dynasty went deep into the depths of the Indochina Peninsula. On the western border, Zhu Di used his strong strength to stop the eastward expansion of the Timur Empire. The Ming Dynasty became the unique overlord in Asia, and the Ming Dynasty stood in the east of the world with a strong attitude.

The so-called "How lonely is invincible?" Zhu Di established the Ming Dynasty's common position in East Asia with strong means, but the vast sea restricted the connection between the Ming Dynasty and the outside world. Zhu Di wanted to do an unprecedented innovation, and he wanted to turn the Ming Dynasty into The country's prestige spreads overseas. He wants to conquer the sea and achieve immortal achievements.

Thanks to the development and precipitation of navigation technology in the Song and Yuan dynasties, the Ming Dynasty in the Yongle period had already met the technical conditions for sailing to the ocean, and the strong national strength in the early Ming Dynasty was enough to support a huge ocean fleet. So Zhu Di appointed his most trusted eunuch and the navigator of the Ming Dynasty as the commander-in-chief of the Empire's Ocean Fleet. This was a huge ocean-going fleet, the well-deserved "Invincible Fleet" in the world at that time. It consisted of 300 large ships and more than 27,000 elite sailors. It was equipped with the most advanced weapons and equipment at that time. In the third year of Yongle (1405 AD), Zheng He led this unparalleled fleet to embark on a long-distance ocean voyage. In the following 28 years, it has been seven times, known in history as Zheng He's voyage to the West.

Zheng He's fleet has visited more than 30 countries and regions, including Java , Sumatra, Sulu, Pahang, Zhenla , Guli , Siam , Bang Gela , Adan , Tianfang, Zuofa, Hulumus , Wooden Bones, and other places, with footprints all over the Western Pacific and Indian Oceans, and the farthest known to reach East Africa and the Red Sea. Wherever Zheng He and Zheng He's fleet went, they adhered to the principle of peace, concluded treaties of friendship, and incorporated them into the vassal system of the Ming Dynasty.The Ming Dynasty did not bully the weak with its strong. You should know that if the Ming Dynasty was willing, the Zheng He fleet would attack these countries, which would be a dimensionality reduction attack. However, the Ming Dynasty did not act like this, but respected the countries along the way, developed contacts and trade with them, and Zheng He's sailing. It was a peaceful journey. Zheng He used peaceful means to make the Ming Dynasty the master of the Western Pacific and Indian Oceans, and the Ming Dynasty's national prestige spread to all directions.
