Emperor Ming Dynasty

Chapter 661 It's time to clear the Qing
"The Kham area is not in a hurry."

Zhu Yixi was very calm.

Whether it is Xikang or Kangba, the place is still that place, with high mountains and steep mountains, dangerous and difficult, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Since Li Zijing took a step back, degraded himself as King Kang, and no longer held the banner of Dashun, it meant that he gave up his determination to expand the territory.

Even if Sichuan sent troops to take Kham after untold hardships, it was nothing more than making a wedding dress for Gushi Khan.

Before unifying the whole country, the main conflict of the imperial court was the orthodoxy with the Manchu Qing, and the struggle for the world must be quick and speedy.

But now, the main conflict is how to consolidate the rule, and the secondary conflict is to regain Liaodong, and never create another Beiyuan.

This autumn, the Manchu Qing attacked the Chahar tribe, which means that its strength is gradually recovering!
Thinking this way, Zhu Yixi said, "The Academy of Li Fan sent people to Ganzi to ask the so-called Kang Wang Li Zijing to present his books, so he was granted the title of Kang Wang."

"In addition, if Li Zijing agrees, then the Lifan Academy will go to Wusi Tibet to rectify the conflict between the two."

Du Yinxi thought about the meaning of the emperor, raised his head, and his face tightened: "Your Majesty, Li Zijing connects with Kangba from Qinghai. The two are combined into one, and the strength is huge!"

"Then let him give up Qinghai."

Zhu Yixi said decisively: "Qinghai is close to Gansu, so what's the intention of controlling this place?"

"Weichen understands."

The Qinghai area is the gateway to Uzang. Once the imperial court occupies this area, it will completely block Li Zijing and Gushi Khan, and seize the initiative.

Moreover, Qinghai is also a stepping stone, which just allowed the Ming army to adapt to the plateau climate and prepare for the future journey.

"By the way, the Lifan Academy is going to take care of Li Zijing and Gushi Khan this time, so we invite the Dalai Lama and the Panchen Lama to Beijing at the same time. I want to listen to them to promote Buddhism."

The Dalai Lama originated in 1578. Altan Khan, the leader of the Tumet tribe, granted Sonam Gyatso the title of "Wazir Dalai Lama of All Sacred Knowledge" (referring to the highest attainment in both Sutra and Tantra). Achievement, knowledgeable as the master of the sea), since then began to have the title of Dalai Lama.

In the 14th year of Chongzhen, due to the introduction of Gushi Khan into Tibet, Lobsang Chokyi Gyaltsan was named "Panchen Bokdo".

From then on, there was the title of Panchen Lama.

The status of the two cannot be compared. The Dalai Lama ruled the former Tibet area, and its political and religious center is in Lhasa, which is very powerful; the Panchen Lama ruled the latter area, and its political and religious center is in Shigatse, which is sparsely populated.

In view of the current situation where the Gelug faction is dominating in the Uzbek area, the imperial court is obliged to recruit these two people and win the hearts of the people.

"Wei Chen understands." Du Yinxi nodded his head immediately after reading a lot of books in these periods, and had some impressions of the Dalai Lama and the Panchen Lama, knowing their status in Buddhism.

In a sense, due to the existence of border areas, Li Fan Academy also has a lot to do with religion.

Suddenly, the autumn wind blew and a coolness hit. The court ladies put clothes on the emperor thoughtfully, and Wu Bangfu, the commander of Jinyiwei, came to see him.

Wu Bangfu was born in charge of punishment in charge of Fusi in Chongzhen Chaobei Town. After breaking the city, he fled to Nanjing. He continued to be in power during King Fu, and was later appointed by Zhu Yixi.

This is the convenience of clan origin.

Zhu Yixi can appoint the former courtiers without any grievances, and the civil servants and generals are also fools, and they surrender directly without psychological burden.

He went down the river, and after breaking through Nanjing, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Fujian, and Guangdong recognized the Shaowu court almost without resistance, and actively paid taxes.

It is also because of this tacit understanding that Zhu Yixi can safely appoint Wu Bangfu to be in charge of Jinyiwei.

"Your Majesty, there is news from Chahanhot."

Wu Bangfu knelt down on one knee, bowed his head and said in a deep voice: "Governor Sun Changzhou of the Xuan Dynasty stayed in Chahanhaote for several days, but the Manchus lost to the Qing Dynasty and were forced to evacuate after some plundering."

"As a result, the Chahar Department lost tens of thousands of troops, greatly weakened its strength, and lost its former prestige."

"Where's Abu Nai?"

The emperor was elated, and his leather boots tapped lightly on the ground, shaking people's hearts.

"I'm afraid time is running out."

"That's fine."

Zhu Yixi turned his head and said bluntly: "Order Sun Changzhou to recruit thousands of elite cavalry from the Chahar tribe to form a Mongolian cavalry."

"In addition, let the Ministry of Industry send craftsmen to rebuild Chahanhaote and change its name to Chifeng, which is under the jurisdiction of Governor Xuanda."

After some operations, the emperor looked at Wu Bangfu and asked, "Is there any news from the Liaodong area?"

After the Manchu Qing returned to the customs, the violent repercussions caused by it are difficult to measure.

For example, the civil and military officials of the Chongzhen Dynasty who were plundered outside the pass, they naturally saw the general situation clearly, they were already apprehensive, wavering constantly, and had no confidence in the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

Even those generals who belonged to before have sympathy.

Before entering the customs, the biggest wish of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was to take over the Central Plains and establish a new dynasty.

But after being beaten back, one ebbs and another, and the future of Manqing can be seen at a glance, which is a bit discouraging.

Not to mention the heavy losses, the return of a large number of people also caused a shortage of food in the entire Liaodong.

Because of this, there are countless enlightened people in Liaodong.

In particular, the entire Bohai Sea region is controlled by the Daming Navy, making the Manchu Qing nowhere to block.

"Your Majesty, there has been news recently that Dorgon will marry the Queen Mother, and there are rumors that his health is already in poor condition."

"Really?" Zhu Yixi stood up abruptly, her face extremely excited.

Although he didn't know when Dorgon died, but at this time when the Ming Dynasty was prosperous, Liaodong's serious troubles could also find a good opportunity to solve it.

It is undeniable that without Dorgon, the split between the Manchu and Qing Eight Banners would be difficult to smooth out.

The contradiction between Manchu and Mongolian, the contradiction between the Eight Banners and the Han people, the contradiction between the Eight Banners nobles, and the newly formed semi-feudal and semi-slavery society were enough to split the Manchu and Qing Dynasties.

The Manchu Qing Dynasty in history greatly eased domestic conflicts only after devouring the interests of the entire Central Plains.

"Jin Yiwei don't waste time, continue to investigate the enemy's situation, and must not miss any news."

"Yes!"

Wu Bangfu quickly withdrew.

Thinking of Shunzhi, who was only 13 years old, and Dorgon, who was in decline, Zhu Yixi couldn't help but feel excited.

Finally, such an opportunity came.

At this time, he recruited the head of the staff department.

The Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies is responsible for controlling the local soldiers and horses, while the Chief of Staff has been evolving over the past few years and has gradually begun to be in charge of the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp.

In other words, it was also the emperor's insecurity.

Relying on the informal, humble and obedient staff officer, he commanded the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp.

"Your Majesty, there are still [-] soldiers and horses stationed in Pyongyang in the Beijing camp in North Korea. In addition, the size of the Beijing camp near the capital has reached [-]."

Wei Shen, the chief of staff, quickly reported the situation of the Beijing camp, carefully and meticulously.
