Beiyang new warlord

"Adelena is the leader of Dongjiang Military and Political Affairs, Fan Wenju is the leader of Heilongjiang Military and Political Affairs, Wenmeng Tieshan Corps is deployed to guard Mudanjiang, Acheng Corps of Panghai Hai, and Shen Rong's Bitter Leaf Corps are going south. Let me keep an eye on Yizhou. All ministries must guard against death! "

"Once our neighbor Huang Taiji marches eastward again and violates our Dongjiang River, this time the Tieyi troops must guard against death and not give up an inch of land! Let Jiannu's corpses fill the Yalu River, and at the same time, the army of Heilongjiang Town will be driven straight in by me. Defeat Hetuala, dig the ancestral grave of his Tartars, and then head straight for Shenyang!"

"If Huang Taiji dares to go north, you, Wenmeng, will also guard for Lao Tzu. The [-] reserve troops will be mobilized for Lao Tzu, and they will fight with him in this white mountain and black water! At the same time, Dongjiang troops will fight west for Lao Tzu , but also to stab his heart in Shenyang."

"Wherever I pass, not a single blade of grass grows! Regardless of whether he is old, weak, women or children, I will kill them all!"

After more than a year and a half of development, Jiannu has made a big circle in the pass, but unknowingly, it is Dongjiang who is fat. In the last battle of Dongjiang, Mao Jue had to rely on the power of Li's Korea and the Japanese country to fight against him. Huang Taiji resisted, but now, under full mobilization, Mao Jue also has more than 20 young and strong troops that can take the battlefield, which is not inferior to the Eight Banners Army, the number one military group in Northeast Asia. Moreover, strategically, Mao Jue has formed an advantage.

If Huang Taiji dares to provoke again, it will be difficult to meet him from the beginning to the end!

"Zhao Cheng's Jixi Corps stepped up to form a fighting force for Lao Tzu, the order is so, the meeting is adjourned!"

During the passionate order, more than a dozen Dongjiang officers stood up together and saluted loudly.

"The last commander, obey!"

Chapter 428. The trip to the country of Japan

With the benefit of Jin Yiwei's inner ghost, the information Dongjiang needs can even be delivered through the military warehouse. Mao Jue will know about major events in the pass in less than a week, even a few days later than Emperor Chongzhen. The news had to be picked by the people below before it was submitted.

At the beginning of the 13th year of Chongzhen, the signs of a devastating catastrophe have been revealed. The Jinyiwei Henan outpost sent a message. Jue's great emigration of thousands of miles relieved Henan's population pressure a little, but it soon disappeared.

This time, even the middle-class landlords who are close to the fortresses of the towns and build a stronghold to protect themselves will not be able to bear it. This autumn, Henan is destined to be full of thieves!

Shaanxi and Shanxi are not much better there, but the main force of the official army here is doomed to be empty. The main force of Sun Chuanting's Qin army was still placed in Baoding, Hebei to deal with the upcoming invasion of slavery. Most of the troops were assigned to Yang Sichang, who invited his supervisor to go south last year. This Meiyan general held almost all the main forces of the country in his hands, and played hide-and-seek with Zhang Xianzhong in the big valley on the border of Huguang.

The strategic imbalance will lead to this year being doomed to be the beginning of collapse. The hourglass of the countdown to the demise of the Ming Empire has been reversed. For Mao Jue, who wants to do something, it means that time is running out.

Don't look at Dongjiang is very strong now, it's not the same as the Qing Dynasty, and it's weaker than the Qing Dynasty before entering the customs. In March, the long-term workers of Lee's family in North Korea met the needs of Mudanjiang Town and Vladivostok Wei for farming and labor. If the shogunate was solved, the Japanese slaves on the Kanto Plain should provide Mao Jue with a large amount of cheap labor. No, the military strength saved by the Eastern and Western countries can make up for about [-] yuan.

Now the Dongjiang immigrants who moved to Heilongjiang have tasted the sweetness. They have the most money in their hands. At the same time as dividing the land, in addition to Dongjiang's territory, they also spent extra money to contract pastures and buy more land. Dongjiang was the first to move here. The population of [-] is the most lack of manpower development.

As for the disaster victims from Shandong, they have also transformed into small landlords, and each family can share a hundred acres of land. The family has worked hard to develop it. Although they don't need manpower to a fatal degree, they do It is also urgent.

Mao Jue's departure not only represented the interests of his own family of warlords, but also the interests of the people under Dongjiang's command. The citizens of Dongjiang came to see Mao Jue off on the expensive Dongjiang train.

"The old man represents the heart of the cow, and I respectfully send you off to the general!"

"Safe journey, General, prosperous martial arts!"

Standing on the deck of the Black Pearl, looking down, there are people seeing off like this everywhere, shouting, while forcing some special products on hand to the Dongjiang soldiers who boarded the ship with their luggage.

This scene has never been seen even in the early years of the Ming Dynasty when the Yuan Dynasty and the Han people were in the same situation, Zhu Yuanzhang expelled the Mongolian and Yuan forces, and restored the Central Plains!

"It's so lively!"

It was still the same OL outfit, with a black shirt and short skirt, a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and the high heels that Mao Jue had to put on. Looking down, Yu Le'er opened her mouth in amazement. O-shaped.

She was also quite sentimental, but Su Yi's face was full of pride. The sea was windy, and she was holding a cloak carefully, and draped it over Mao Jue's shoulders behind her.

After Mao Jue went to war, the biggest beneficiary seemed to be Adelaine. She took over Dongjiang's military and political power. His gaze was fixed on Su Yi's lower abdomen, and now her lower abdomen is slightly swollen.

Of course not because of fat!

"If Huang Taiji launches an attack on Guan Ningjin's defense line this time! Dongjiang will attack from behind no matter what, even if it's to tear the face off with the Qing people, Nana!"

"what?"

This Mao Jue was still chattering about important military and political affairs, but Adelaina was obviously a little absent-minded, and Mao Jue suddenly yelled a sentence in her ear, and she woke up with a jolt: "General, you order!"

What else is this commanding?After all, a woman is a woman. Seeing her envious and jealous look, Mao Jue patted her head helplessly: "Don't be envious, after this trip to Japan, Heilongjiang has almost developed, and I stay here every day." Tieshan, I'll give you one too!"

"Who is envious!"

There was a clear red cloud on the little face, but Adelaina was very helpful with her little brain: "I just want to remind the general that the time limit given to you by the old man is about to expire. The eldest son's name is yours If you don't think about it, you have to go to the ancestral hall and kneel!"

This topic diverted you, really caught Mao Jue by surprise, he slapped his head in distress, Mao Jue frowned helplessly, and after a long time, he gritted his teeth and hummed.

"Isn't the general going to tour the Wa country? If so, let's call him Xingjian!"

"A good name, Tian Xingjian, a gentleman should strive for self-improvement!"

Adelaine nodded appreciatively, but immediately, she hummed in astonishment.

"But this has something to do with conquest of the Japanese!"

No matter what, Dongjiang's hope, Mao Jue's eldest son has finally decided on a name, Mao Xingjian!

As Yiqi Hongchen galloped towards the capital, he, as an old man, also assembled an army, and once again rushed to the Japanese country to kill the past, just like the tens of thousands of parents in China, fighting against all obstacles for future generations With Jiangshan.

For this expedition, his platoon as the governor of Liaodong is really not small. There are ten regiments in the Yizhou Corps. Three large ships, more than 20 second-class sailboats, fifty or so third-class functional ships, plus the navy, the army reached more than 3 people.

This time, because I was going to Kyoto for business, I didn’t go to Nagasaki Castle, which I always went to. I passed through Jeju Island. After reviewing the Jeju Corps, the fleet headed north with ease, along the coast of Japan, and finally stopped at Tamba. .

Mao Jue hadn't set foot on the land of Wa country again for four years. There were a lot of changes here from when he first came here. The villages seemed to be denser again, and a lot of the originally barren forest land had also been cut down and planted. Corn and sweet potatoes were served.

The high-yielding crops from the Americas were popularized in the Japanese country more than a hundred years earlier in the hands of Mao Jue. Sun Chuanting in "Da Ming Jie" once had a classic line, what is the destiny?Destiny is food! It is a steady stream of people's hearts! Although the food is still so bad, at least one or two more months of full food are added every year. Unknowingly, the population of the Wa country has also increased by a few points. The world seems to be A lot more peaceful.

It's just that this is not a good thing for the Japanese country. Just like Qianlong's flourishing age, which never added gifts, the population grew too fast, but the land and corresponding productivity did not get a corresponding increase. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, China described by foreign missionaries was In a land of wealth, the residents were neatly dressed, healthy, civilized and polite, but at the end of the Qing Dynasty, it turned into a different scene, the astonishingly poor frontier, the people were short, yellow and thin, and the army was as dilapidated as a beggar. It is the price of uncontrolled population growth.

The price the Japanese country will pay in the future will be even worse. After all, in comparison, the Qing Dynasty still had a vast land, as well as Hetao, the Dabie Mountains, and agriculture can be expanded near Taihu Lake. , the environment is destroyed, maybe the Japanese country that has no deserts in the future will forcibly lose a desert, and the living environment of the Japanese people will be even worse.

There are also more and more Ming people walking in the fields of the country of Wa. Although Mao Jue did not want the power of those aristocratic families in the south of the Yangtze River to infiltrate the country of Wa, but since the Hangzhou Luo family opened the first hot spring hotel in Kyoto, no matter whether Dongjiang businessmen or Yangzhou merchants will inevitably infiltrate. Nowadays, more and more daimyos have become accustomed to contracting the development of their territories to big Han merchants to run them and reap the benefits.

Under several influences, even if Daming did not intend to colonize the Wa country, the Wa country would have to develop into a semi-colony of Daming, and become a labor exporting country, an agricultural exporting country, an industrial product importing country, and a tourism service country for Daming. Always hold back under Daming's feet.

Even though it has changed so much, there is still one thing in the Wa Kingdom that has not changed, that is, the slavishness towards power. When they landed in Tanba, the Dongjiang army formed a spectacular marching team. Cannons, the heavy infantry phalanx marching with long spears, even the reserve troops, are also well-armored.

Every time Mao Jue's army marched to a certain place, there was no need to give orders at all. The Japanese peasants in the villages and towns beside the road had already consciously knelt down on both sides of the road and kowtowed. The coats of the Han people are exactly the same.

I haven't been here for four years, but this time, Dongjiang is a blockbuster. The terrified Danba and the Daimyo of the West Country of Wakasa's generation panicked like little chickens. All the samurai under his command traveled to Kyoto, and the power of Dafengxing has increased a lot. When he landed in Wa Kingdom on April 4000, Mao Jue had 5 troops. When he arrived in Kyoto, he had already reached more than [-].

At this time, the capital of the Japanese kingdom, after reaching the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, had a rare revival. The city walls that had been dilapidated for hundreds of years were restored and intact. After being demolished, a brand-new two-story building stood up, and the 480 Temple in the south, the grand occasion of how many buildings and terraces in the mist and rain, was revealed here again.

It is even more prosperous than Heian-kyo in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty. The capital on the shore of Lake Biwa has expanded completely compared to four years ago. The streets are full of crowds, and the hawking from south to north is endless. Compared with Daming, which is in dire straits, this place is undoubtedly a Complete peace and prosperity.

It's just that this peace also belongs to the Ming people. Mao Jue plans to earn money from the big families in the south of the Yangtze River. Those big families in the south of the Yangtze River are not welcome, and they also bring their special products to take root here. The whole street is full of signs with Chinese characters. In those hot spring hotels shrouded in mist, those who linger in the gentle arms of Japanese noblewomen are full of great men from the Tang Dynasty.

"Greetings, Lord Dabongxing!"

The Toyotomi family in Kyoto has twelve guardian daimyos, and the five follow the fourth. Ruo Nianji, Mufu, and hundreds of important ministers from the Western Kingdom personally greeted them at the west gate of Kyoto. Even the royal family of the Wa Kingdom sent representatives, and the one standing at the front of the line was naturally the Wa Kingdom. The actual Supreme Emperor, Yuan Fengxing's supervisor Yuan Chonghuan, and the eunuch Cao Xi who was sent by the Ming Dynasty were also among them. This eunuch was much more nourished than when he set off from the Ming Dynasty. He turned out to be a fat ball already rich , and further on, a girl wearing a red dress and a phoenix coronet, with bright eyes and bright teeth, was also beaming with joy. Following Yuan Chonghuan's greeting, hundreds of dignitaries also paid homage to Mao Jue. before the army.

He came here to pursue profit, not to put on airs, and when he got out of the car, Mao Jue also had no airs, and came in front of everyone with a voice, and shook his sleeves violently.

"All ministers, please stand up!"

"Thank you so much!"
