Lord of Ming Dynasty

The first thing he saw was the report on the rise of the Yarkand Kingdom.

The Yaerqiang State is actually a country of some half-Mongols and half-Western Regions born on the territory of the Chahatai Khanate established by the descendants of Genghis Khan in the Western Regions, Arabia and other regions near the border of the Ming Dynasty.

The capital of the Yarkand Khanate is now Shache, and its territory includes Turpan, Hami, and the Tarim Basin.The territory of the Khanate is bounded by Jiayuguan in the east, Tibet in the south, Kashmir in the southwest, Uzbekistan Bukhara Khanate in the west, Fergana Valley as the boundary with Uzbekistan, Tianshan Mountains as the boundary in the north, and Chagatai and Turpan in the east. The Khanate (later eliminated by the Junggar Khanate in Galdan) was adjacent.Because the early ruling center was Kashgar (referred to as Kashgar), it was called the Kashgar Khanate, and Central Asia was called the Mughalstan because the country was established by the descendants of Genghis Khan.

To be honest, this is tantamount to alien invasion.

However, whether it was the founding of the Ming Dynasty or its demise, the forces never reached there, but the Qing Dynasty did. The Zhungeer Khanate, the Mongol Khanate that was wiped out by Kangxi three times, was once the territory of the Qing Dynasty.

But now the Zhungeer Khanate has not wiped out this Yarkand, nor has it ever been in history. Because of Zhang Qiang's troubles, he sent Cha Nier and Sunit back to make trouble, and Jin Qi even led the horse bandits and the Mongols The tribes where the cavalry fought scattered and fled, and the Mongols fled thousands of miles away, disrupting the ecology there, making the Yarkand Kingdom much stronger than it was in history.

Why do you say strong?

Looking at the reports sent back by the intelligence personnel who stayed there, it can be seen that the Qing army and the Mongols encircled and suppressed the Chahar Khanate so that the Chahar Khanate had no time to estimate where the disrupted Mongols and tribes returned Where, and after a lot of fighting, the order there was re-established, and a strong man was born, which was stronger than the strong Zhungeer Khanate in history, so that the Zhungar Khanate could not be as powerful as history. Killed them like that.

Where the situation has become complicated, it is impossible for the Huaxia Army to control where it is now. What is in trouble is the Zhungeer Khanate, where are the Mongolian tribes, and the Qing army. This is a good thing for the Huaxia Army, and it is also bad things.

Ordinarily, the Yeerqiang Kingdom may contain the Mongols and some of the main cavalry troops of the Qing army, but who knows if the situation will develop in a direction that is not conducive to the Huaxia Army, because the Huaxia Army is all Han Chinese, and the Qing army and the Mongols They are all aliens, and aliens and aliens always have common topics.

What if after the collision, they form an alliance, and the Huaxia Army will have to face a more powerful opponent by then.

Zhang Qiang was thinking about how to deal with this problem.

Zhou Porridge returned to his office, the Prime Minister's Office, which was in the front yard. When he opened the door and went in, he saw Zhu Dadian standing up with a smile on his face and walking towards Zhou Porridge.

"Master Prime Minister, have you ever persuaded the governor?"

Zhou Congee wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with lingering fear: "Oh my lord, my master, you almost killed me, you don't know that the governor hates others to do things behind his back, to betray him?"

"Haha, Zhou Congee, the old man is also helpless. Do you know how free the old man is at the foot of the mountain, so I have no choice but to ask the head of state for your place? How can I say that it is a family, and it will be a family in the future!"

Zhou Congee sat helplessly on the chair, picked up a cup of cold tea, and drank it slowly. What a miscalculation, carelessness, if he hadn't accidentally fallen in love with a woman and let her successfully conceive his child, or A boy, how could he risk such a risk to beg the governor? It's not like he didn't know that Wei Wuji was scolded by the governor for the bloody spray for this matter.

If it weren't for the contribution of Conglong over the years, the two of them have followed Zhang Qiang since his fortune, and I am afraid that this matter has already been dispatched to Baozhong Mansion to dig coal and build roads.

And this woman, so lucky to die, is actually the daughter of Zhu Dadian's concubine. You said how lucky or unlucky it was to meet each other. Anxiously looking at his cheap father-in-law, his former employer and master.

The status of the two people is different now. In the past, Zhu Dadian was the high-ranking master, and he was an unnoticed servant and servant in his mansion. Now he is the prime minister of the Huaxia Army with an army of nearly one million and a population of 4000 million. Above people, the scenery is infinite.

Just like the lack of an heir in the royal family, it is like inheriting a person from a collateral blood relative to be the emperor. The old parents had to call their son the emperor and bow down. Now the Huaxia Army doesn’t believe in bowing down. No one can avoid coercion.

"Son-in-law, give this old man some advice. Will the governor forgive me? This old man has already received the punishment he deserves. Over the past year, this old man has not thought about food and drink, and he regrets so much..."

Zhou Porridge put down the teacup, "Okay, okay, don't cry and mourn here, the governor has already agreed, Xiancui will come to the mansion to be the housekeeper, and take care of the chores in the mansion. Ms. Zhu Jinfu will assist Xiancui in managing chores. You can start your own business, this is the greatest favor and forgiveness that the Governor has given to your family, thank you."

Zhou Porridge didn't want to entangle with this matter anymore, and dealt with him, his father-in-law, calmly.

Maybe he will be the father-in-law of Zhang Qiang in the future, but depending on the situation, he can't be too proud. Zhang Qiang knows it well, so his attitude can't be too good to Zhu Dadian.

"Thank you, thank you, Head of State, this, this, this result is also the best result." Zhu Dadian murmured amidst the disappointment.

After finishing speaking, he bowed to Zhou Porridge, and then walked towards the door with some disappointment.

Zhou Congee waited for him to walk to the door before he said calmly: "In a few days, come to the governor's mansion to take up the post, as a deputy prime minister, and help me with official duties."

Zhu Dadian did not expect that such grace and such a big pie would fall on his head. Deputy Prime Minister, Vice Minister of the Court, a position that he had never thought of, would actually fall on his head.

Although there are two deputy prime ministers in front of him, he is definitely not the second assistant, but how can he say that he has already stood at the pinnacle of power.

It is super first-class in the current dynasty.

Chapter 4: The Problem of the Southern Ming Kingdom

Zhang Qiang was very troubled. An unsolvable problem was always lingering in his heart, and he was always unhappy if he didn't find a solution.

He was worried that the Yarkand Congress would merge with the Qing army to strengthen the strength of the Qing army. The Mongol cavalry might fight less and less, because the Mongols had only so many bases. If the army merges, then hundreds of thousands of cavalry can be added. If the south, or the Huaxia army hits Shaanxi, Gansu, and the four mountains, then this will be a problem.

What he can do, and the only thing he can do so far, is to let Milin send intelligence agents, more intelligence agents, in which direction to find out the strength and movements of the enemy.

Feel free to report back.

The journey is so far away that it may take three months for the intelligence agent to go there, three months for a piece of information to return, and half a year to go back and forth. After the situation changes, it is quite dangerous for a traveler to deal with the changes there instead of controlling the changes there and not being able to control everything.

Zhang Qiang felt that he was trapped in a trap. The more he struggled, the more uncomfortable he became.

At this time, Tong Dawei was also feeling sad and uncomfortable for the problems he was facing, and he couldn't get rid of them.

A few months ago, he was still helping those bandits all over the place. To put it mildly, it was the rebel army and the anyway army. They were indeed resisting the Qing army, but they were also resisting the Nanming Kingdom. On the top of the mountain, when he is the king of the mountain, the more ambitious generals and civil servants of the Nanming Kingdom are like Song Jiang in the historical novels, and the older ones are like Li Zicheng who pulled the emperor down and became the emperor himself.

Through their own efforts, those mountain kings were eliminated, merged, and transformed. The merged army became the army of the Nanming Kingdom, but the fighting power was not too strong. The transformed ones became the militia soldiers of the Huaxia Army, in name, because they Still in Guangxi, Guizhou, Huguang and other places, while harassing the army of Yongli Nanming, while harassing the army of Nanming, they also fought against the Qing army, which caused a lot of trouble for these three forces.

For those who are more ambitious, the Nanming Kingdom directly pays the officials to fight against the Qing army, and they own as much territory as they occupy. The consequence of this is that the Nanming Kingdom cannot control them and has to support them, but they are like the separatist warlords of the Hongguang court It harmed the local people, but did not bring much benefit to the Nanming Kingdom, and caused certain troubles to fight against the Qing army.

His task is to help Nanming Kingdom train two cavalry brigades on the basis of helping Nanming Kingdom train tens of thousands of new troops similar to the Huaxia Army in the early stage.

This army includes the old battalion cavalry that Wang Deren survived, as well as the coastal horse bandits he recruited. They are the kind of horse bandits who go out to raid other lands for hundreds of miles, rob once, and then return to their village with the spoils. For the people.

The image of a farmer uncle who looks honest and honest, but in fact, if you dare to live in his house for one night, the next day, you will basically become human flesh, and all your belongings will be looted. This kind of vicious hiding the bandits.

Tong Dawei's head is about to explode. How much memory is needed to sort out these relationships and settle these things.

But just when he was in trouble, an order let him get rid of these troubles directly, and handed over to the intelligence agents of Milin below to do these things. He returned to Guangzhou Mansion to accept the new order, and served as the fifth general of the Huaxia Army. Commander of the cavalry brigade.

He breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't enjoy the blessing for a few days, and was sent to Nanming Kingdom with more than 6000 people from the Fifth Cavalry Brigade to help Nanming Kingdom resist the Qing army's attack.

And the one who cooperated with him was his old boss, Wang Deren. Back then, he was the captain of Wang Deren's personal army. How to deal with this relationship is another trouble.

He failed to complete the task assigned by Wang Deren, and Wang Deren was defeated by the Qing army.

The other is the cavalry of the Han army flag or the cavalry of the green battalion who were defeated in the early stage, and the soldiers and bandits of the Ming army.These people are only recruited by old bandits like Wang Deren.

Of course, at this time, even if Nanming knew their composition, it would be inconvenient to care about them. They still had to help them and accept them, because the Qing army was really strong. If Longwu Zhu Yujian wanted to restore the glory of Ming Dynasty, he would not be picky and had to accept everything. .

Li Chengdong came back from Yongli Nanming and was still accepted.

Yongli Nanming's forces in Huguang, Hunan, Shaanxi and Gansu were scattered a lot, and their strength was greatly damaged, and they were no longer able to fight against the Qing army.

Now Yongli Nanming can only count on Li Dingguo and their relatively powerful forces, and Li Dingguo is also relatively loyal, and has never betrayed him. He is already in Burma and imprisoned by the Burmese king Baimang who killed his brother. The majestic Daming The emperor of the country, even though it is in trouble now, the Ming Dynasty is dead, and now it is the Nanming period, but such an emperor is actually imprisoned by others. A vassal country that was begging for mercy before turned around and dared to attack the emperor of his master country. However, Emperor Yongli still didn't dare to resist, and felt aggrieved no matter how he looked at it, but Li Dingguo still didn't know that the emperor who commanded him was the emperor of the vassal state, not his own emperor.

Other people's emperors, of course, misled command. The more you lose, the safer they will be, and the more they will get.

Li Dingguo had already sent half of the purchased guns and ammunition to Yongli, but he didn't know that this kind of offering was accepted by a barbarian.

Even if Li Dingguo knew about it, he didn't dare to resist, unless he didn't want the banner of the Yongli court, Bai Mang would dare to kill Yongli, he didn't want to be a sinner.

But thinking of this, Tong Dawei had no way to stop it, and he didn't care too much. What he cared about was how to face Wang Deren. If it was about his official position in Nanming, he was definitely not as big as Wang Deren. If it was about strength and background, he was He is bigger than Wang Deren, and in terms of military strength, he is also more than Wang Deren. In terms of status and status, he must be more loved by Nanming Kingdom than Wang Deren, who surrendered and rebelled.

Why some, because the Huaxia Army did not pit Nanming once or twice, although the result of this is that Nanming became stronger every time, and every time it was destroyed, it was reborn with the support of the Huaxia Army, and every time the Huaxia Army helped They have established a more powerful force and have stronger strength, but even Tong Dawei knows that the monarchs and ministers of Nanming Kingdom must be full of anger in their stomachs, wanting to get rid of the Huaxia Army, and then step on a few more Feet, the politeness to him is superficial.
