Chongzhen Chat Group

When Emperor Chongzhen learned through chat that Liu Xiang, a big pirate, had finally been caught, he was very satisfied. He immediately issued an order to commend the Marine Corps, and also asked Wu Sangui to reward Wei Siming.

As for North and South America, he did not plan to occupy them all immediately. That would be unrealistic. After all, the Americas are too big, and most of them are primitive territories. Just treat it as a place where the Ming Dynasty trained its troops, and start with the place ruled by the Western Yi. Anyway, the Western barbarians did not do any good in America. With them as their "precious stones", the natives should be able to accept the Ming army more easily. With Ming's ability to assimilate, it won't be long before all the people there are Ming people.

From now on, the domestic punishment for corrupt civil servants will no longer be exile to Hainan, but directly exile to America to teach the Indians and assimilate them.

Thinking like this, Emperor Chongzhen's thoughts turned back. It must be said that returning the capital to Nanjing is a big project. Ever since this decree was announced, I have been busy with this matter.

Nowadays, the structure of the Ming Dynasty has undergone great changes. It is no longer limited to the original Ming Dynasty, but has also become the length of the earth. The geographical location of the capital is not enough. Only Nanjing is a suitable place because it has the convenience of the Yangtze River, which connects the east and west, overseas, and the canal that connects the north.

Although there is a chat group, some things can be responded to in time. But no matter what, working in the chat group is informal. In actual work, you still have to go through the same process as before.

Of course, after the capital was returned to Nanjing, the capital side naturally became the companion capital. In both cities of Ming Dynasty and Ming Dynasty, the patterns of the two teams remained unchanged. However, Emperor Chongzhen did not intend to let the officials who accompanied the capital retire in old age. Instead, he planned to let them focus on matters in the northern part of the Ming Dynasty, including Mongolia, Mobei, Siberia and other places.

Emperor Chongzhen was thinking about these things, and while he was busy returning matters, Gushi Khan from Qinghai-Tibet responded. What he didn't expect was that Gushi Khan came in person.

Emperor Chongzhen was very happy about this. It was good to have such sincerity! So he sent Oqirtu to meet Gushi Khan.

Eqirtu was also quite surprised when he heard that Gushi Khan came to the capital in person to bow his head. When he caught Gushi Khan in Baoding, he asked out his doubts.

Gushi Khan looked at his nephew whom he had not seen for many years. When he saw that he was wearing a gorgeous official uniform of the Ming Dynasty and looked majestic, he couldn't help but sigh. After a while, he answered Eqirtu's doubts and said: "The power of the Ming Dynasty is beyond my expectation. As a close neighbor, if you can't resist, then you might as well simply obey and obey thoroughly. Get enough reward. What's more, from the way the Emperor of Ming Dynasty treated the Oirat tribe, I can also see that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty is not a monarch who crosses rivers and burns bridges. He is capable, courageous, and has a mind that can lead to hundreds of rivers. Such benevolence and righteousness Your Majesty deserves to be treated on my knees!"

Eqirtu was stunned for a moment after hearing this. Of course he knew Gushi Khan. In other words, in the past, the invincible Gushi Khan could be regarded as his idol since childhood. Nowadays, such a great khan, who is considered the most outstanding in the history of the Oirat tribe, is willing to bow to the Ming Emperor with the utmost sincerity. I have to say that it is a bit unexpected.

But when he came back to his senses and thought about it, the Ming Dynasty was so powerful that no dynasty in history had ever been before. Even during the Genghis Khan period, which made the Mongols most proud, Oqirtu did not feel that he could be stronger than the Ming Dynasty. There is no other reason. During the Genghis Khan period, people only knew destruction and brought only destruction to all parts of the world. But the Ming Dynasty was different. It was the true master of the king.

If nothing else, let’s just say that after the Mongolian tribes surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, look at the Hetao today. The Mongolian people no longer have to worry about hunger, live and work in peace and contentment, and live a happy life. There are also his own tribes, those who were his people are now all proud of being a member of the Ming Dynasty. At this time, they were heading west under the flag of the Ming Dynasty to fight against those extremely vicious enemies.

Those who offend the Ming Dynasty will be punished no matter how far away they are! As a member of the Ming Dynasty, every time Eqirtu thinks of these words, he feels proud in his heart!

Thinking of this, Eqirtu looked at his uncle, nodded, and said seriously: "Uncle made the right decision this time!"

When Gushihan heard this, he smiled bitterly in his heart. He understood that his nephew was still a little bit upset about the fact that he did not immediately return to the army to rescue the Oirat Department. Otherwise, it would not be said that the right decision was made this time.

With this in mind, he said to Eqirtu: "I came here in person this time. In addition to wanting to see the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty with my own eyes, I also wanted to see the rumored Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. If I can, I can do it too. Make some decisions."

Hearing this, Oqiltu couldn't help but feel moved in his heart. It seemed that his uncle still had something else to do and wanted to act according to the situation. At this time, he did not want his uncle to make the wrong decision again, so he reminded Gushi Khan: "My nephew, I believe you will not be disappointed!"

Gushi Khan did not express much about this, but began to inquire about Eqirtu's life in the Ming Dynasty and other matters.

Just like that, Gushi Khan arrived in the capital. Along the way, he saw the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty and was deeply shocked. In particular, there were some weird things that he had never heard of before. This was the first time for him to see them, which really opened his eyes.

After arriving in the capital, while waiting for the Ming Emperor to summon him, he changed his clothes and walked around the capital, especially the Zhonglie Hall of the Ming Dynasty. He saw the murals in the Zhonglie Hall and the deeds of Zhonglie. For a long time.

After leaving the Zhonglie Hall, Gushi Khan's expression was obviously different from before entering the Zhonglie Hall. It was obvious that he was also shocked by some things. This time, it has nothing to do with prosperity.

When Dongchang reported Gushi Khan's situation, Emperor Chongzhen didn't waste much time and immediately issued an order to summon Gushi Khan. All civil and military officials gathered together, which was quite grand. After all, Gushi Khan's surrender represented that the Ming Dynasty had opened up a large territory, and it was done without losing any blood. For literati, this is the greatest military achievement.

At the reception ceremony, Emperor Chongzhen also gave Gushi Khan corresponding treatment. After all, his sincerity was obvious, and he came to the capital in person to meet him. As for the tributes brought, although they were valuable, they were a bit disdainful to Ming Dynasty.

What Emperor Chongzhen didn't expect was that after appointing Gushi Khan as the ambassador of comfort, Gushi Khan reported to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, I heard that there seems to be a war between the Ming Dynasty and the Mughal Empire. I wonder if this is true?”

None of the civil servants and military officers in the palace expected that he would ask this question. They were a little curious and looked at the emperor to see how he would reply.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't hide it from him, nodded and said: "The Mughal Empire is definitely not willing to let Bengal be occupied by the Ming Dynasty. Now it just can't allocate its troops. It is estimated that there will be a war in the future."

After he finished speaking, the new Minister of War, Lu Xiangsheng, added: "My Ming army is well-prepared, and the Mughals can live in peace. If they dare to invade the Ming Dynasty, they will definitely not be able to withstand the wrath of the Ming Dynasty's thunder!"

Hearing him speak, Gushi Khan turned to look at him and recognized Lu Xiangsheng. He had seen it from the murals in Zhonglie Hall and knew that this was the God of War of the Ming Dynasty. His eyes lit up and he thought to himself that with such a figure, he was indeed a Jinshi. special case in .

Appreciating appreciation, Gushi Khan respectfully said to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, I know that the Ming Dynasty was powerful, but the Mughal Empire was at its peak and its military strength was at its peak. Now compared to the Mughal Empire, we also know The Ming Dynasty is so powerful that it will be fine if it doesn’t come to attack Bengal. If it really wants to come to attack Bengal, it must use all the troops in the country to fight. In this regard, we must not underestimate the enemy!"

This was a pertinent reminder. After hearing what Emperor Chongzhen was thinking, he nodded and said: "Now that Goa is occupied by my Ming Dynasty, and my Ming Dynasty's navy is cruising on the sea, if the Mughal Empire dares to raise the entire country's troops, If we invade Bangladesh from the east, I will definitely make it regret it!"

"We believe that the Mughal Empire will definitely ask for trouble!" Gushi Khan replied respectfully, but then changed the subject and said, "But in such a war, our Ming soldiers will eventually suffer a lot of casualties. If we can Reducing some casualties would be the best!"

Hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen's heart moved. After having said so much, what else could he hide?

But this was a good thing. Emperor Chongzhen smiled and waved his hand and said, "Do you have any good suggestions?"

Gushi Khan had said so much and was waiting for this sentence. Just like what he said to Eqirtu, since he decided to embrace Mingguo's thigh, he should give it a good hug and show enough sincerity. Therefore, after visiting the Ming Zhonglie Hall, he had already made up his mind.

He bowed and said seriously to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, if one day comes, I would like to lead my troops and break into the rear of the Mughal Empire from the Tibetan Plateau to create more fighter opportunities for our Ming Dynasty!"

In other words, it was indeed a good idea for him to insert himself from Tibet, the northern part of the Mughal Empire.

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed and said quickly: "This is very good. I am very happy that you have this intention!"

At the same time, he also made the decision to bring Gushi Khan into the chat group. In this way, when the time comes, they will be able to cooperate with each other and attack the Mughal Empire severely.

The civil and military officials in the palace saw that Gushi Khan not only came to see him in person, but also took the initiative to ask for war, offered advice and suggestions for the Ming Dynasty's future wars, and even took the initiative to lead troops to assist. This made them very fond of Gushi Khan.

Of course, they were not fools. They knew that Gushi Khan was so ingratiated with Ming Dynasty because Ming Dynasty was strong enough. Otherwise, why didn't Gushi Khan have this sincerity a few years ago!

Thinking of this, all the civil and military officials looked at Emperor Chongzhen on the throne. They all knew that all of this was the change brought about by the young man above. The Ming Dynasty had such a wise monarch, how could he not dominate the world!

At the same time, the person they had just discussed, Shah Jahan, the Great Khan of the Mughal Empire, was in a very bad mood.

"What, what did you say?" Although Shah Jahan was sitting on the throne, he leaned forward and stared at the messenger below and asked, "Goa occupied by the Portuguese has been taken away by the Ming Dynasty?"

He had to be shocked by this. You know, the Ming Dynasty was so far away, but it actually had enough troops to come to such a far place and defeat the Portuguese who were not easy to mess with. This really shocked him.

Although he also ordered the Governor of Bengal to suppress the local Portuguese, he understood that it was his territory and his troops had the advantage. After the war started, the Portuguese did not resist resolutely because they also had Goa and Colombo.

But it was different when the Ming Dynasty captured Goa, which meant that the Portuguese no longer had a foothold here. He could imagine that the Portuguese would definitely not want to lose their territory here and would definitely resist. In the end, it was still occupied by the Ming Dynasty.

What worries him the most is that he originally planned to use force against the Ming Dynasty, not only to take back Bengal, but also to take Dongwu as his own if things went well. However, if Goa is now occupied by the Ming Dynasty, then he will not be able to deal with the east with all his strength. We must also prevent the Ming army over there from taking the opportunity to attack north. With the Ming armies supporting each other from the east to the south, future wars will be even more difficult.

"Great Khan, yes, we have captured the Portuguese who escaped from Goa. We have received accurate information that the army landed from the sea. There are at least 20,000 troops. They are all regular troops. With lightning speed, they can't cover their ears at all. Without giving the Portuguese time to react, they defeated them all along the way." The visitor continued to report, "And it is said that not only Colombo occupied by the Portuguese, but also the entire Lion Kingdom, now belongs to the Ming Dynasty!"

There was no sound in the hall, and the courtiers nearby were also shocked by the news. They all knew that their Great Khan actually wanted to capture Goa. It's just that the army is fighting with Persia in the north, and there is a big enemy like the Ming Dynasty in the east, so it is not triggered. Of course, it was also because he knew that Goa was not that easy to fight, so he had not taken action before. Otherwise, the Great Khan would have been happy to defeat Goa before going to attack Persia.

However, now the Ming Kingdom has defeated Goa and even the Lion Kingdom with lightning speed, and has formed a southeastern siege of the empire. Then the war against the Ming Kingdom will be difficult to fight in the future.

They thought so, how could Shah Jahan not know about it? After asking some more details, he couldn't sit still and stood up and walked back and forth in the temple like a headless fly. Because he was worried that the Ming army would suddenly launch an attack on the Mughals. Based on their estimated strength in attacking Goa, he was a little worried that the troops currently remaining in the east and south of the country were simply not enough to resist the Ming army. attack.

Just as he was thinking about it, a minister below said: "Great Khan, the Ming Dynasty is a country of tigers and wolves. It is very powerful and should not be taken lightly!"
