I'm really not the carpenter emperor

Mikhail raised his head and looked at the firm eyes of Patriarch Feratley, his father. For a moment, he was a little moved.

That night, the door of the post house was roughly kicked open by a captain of the tsarist guard.

The two accompanying frontier soldiers heard the news and stepped forward, but were killed by the tall Kazakh without any preparation.

Immediately, a group of well-armored guards rushed into the post where the Ming envoy was, but surprisingly, the oriental man showed no fear.

The envoy was sitting securely at the table with a stack of side dishes and a jug of shochu.

Seeing the guards approaching, the envoy's expression remained unmoved, and he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth:

"Are you here?"

The captain of the Kazakh guard looked a little surprised, "You know I'm coming?"

"Otherwise what am I going to do?"

The envoy smiled coldly, then threw the wine glass on the ground, shouted "Long live Your Majesty", and then slammed his head against the wall to death.

Watching this scene, the soldiers of the Tsarist Guard around were very surprised and awed.

……

In fact, Ming now doesn't know how far the Russian Empire has expanded.

The only understanding of the biggest opponent in the Far East comes from Zhu Youxiao's half-knowledge of the history of the Far East in later generations.

Zhu Youxiao only remembered sporadically that the current Russian Empire should have occupied a large area of ​​the Far East, but he didn't know where they went.

But Zhu Youxiao clearly remembered that Poland and Tsarist Russia are old enemies now.

Poland does not recognize Mikhail, the tsar who was elected by the nobles, and wants their prince Vladislav, who has tsarist blood, to be the tsar.

Patriarch Firatley tried to persuade the Mongolian Crimean Khanate and the Ottoman Empire in the south to assist Russia and attack Poland together.

However, this plan was not able to be realized. Mikhail sent troops to Smolensk in Poland, but it also ended in failure.

After that, he changed hands to quell the domestic rebellion and wanted to reorganize the army.

A few days after the envoy was killed, another envoy arrived in Warsaw, the capital of Poland. This envoy is extremely important, and it is Xu Weijing, a scholar of the Wenhua Palace.

It is said that the other party is a cabinet official from Ming Dynasty, a powerful country in the Far East. King Sigmund III of Poland led the nobles to receive him grandly in the magnificent palace.

"His Majesty the King of Poland, I am here this time with the sincere hearts of my Great Ming Emperor and thousands of subjects."

Before Xu Weijing came, he naturally went to Tang Ruowang and Nan Huairen to learn some polite words from the foreign engineers of the Qin Tianjian and the Military Weapons Department.

Now, as important civil and military ministers of Ming Dynasty, many people lament that they have to learn a lot of barbarian languages.

Of course, to put it bluntly, this is called learning from barbarians to control barbarians.

Although Ming and Poland are not far away, they are not very close either. Thanks to Europe, Sigmund III can often use goods from Ming.

"Of course, Ming's products are very gorgeous and durable. I hope your people are as sincere and credible as these porcelain and silk."

When Xu Weijing heard this, he felt something was going on in his heart.

"That's great, then I'll just say it straight. We heard that your country and Tsarist Russia are old enemies, and Tsarist Russia has also invaded our land in Siberia."

Sigmund III immediately understood the purpose of the other party's visit, and the smile on his face froze, but at the same time, he was also thinking about it.

I heard that Ming is very powerful, and that Tsarist Russia is wooing the Ottoman Empire recently. If they can get Ming as an ally, Ottoman must be timid.

What's more, the throne of Tsarist Russia should have belonged to Poland!

Therefore, he did not refuse, but smiled and waited for the other party's next words.

Xu Weijing said: "The envoys sent by our country to Moscow were killed for no reason. Tsarist Russia has no diplomatic bottom line, and it is also thinking that it will no longer show them any favors, launch a war, and retake our own territory."

"My Majesty heard that the King of your country, Sigmund III, is an outstanding knight. It is my dream to form an alliance with you to fight against the Tsarist Russian Empire."

Sigmund III was already elated when he heard this, and he was even more happy when he wanted to regain the Tsar's throne.

"Hahaha, from this point of view, your emperor is also a very noble person!"

After saying the polite words, his eyes changed, and he said coldly, "I only want the position of the Tsar."

Xu Weijing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, bowed and said: "That's natural, my Majesty is already the emperor of Ming Dynasty, and I have no interest in the position of the Tsar."

"We only want Siberia!"

Sigmund III's face was cloudy and uncertain, but after a long while, he suddenly laughed loudly as if pushing away the clouds and mist:

"Hahaha, okay, that's it!"

Chapter 935 Annan asks for help

Poland and Daming actually wore a pair of trousers. When the news reached Moscow, Patriarch Feratley was very shocked.

Perhaps in these years, nothing can shock him so much.

The plan to win over the Ottoman Empire is still on hold. I heard that the Ming Dynasty Beijing City will soon hold a meeting of Mongolian tribes, which also makes the Mongolian Crimean Khanate's attitude towards Tsarist Russia somewhat alienated.

At this juncture, the old enemy Poland and the emerging powers in the south have come together. From this point of view, it is still difficult to realize the idea of ​​​​reorganizing the army and establishing a Guangrou empire.

Indeed, the current Tsarist Russian Empire can be said to be strong on the outside but strong on the inside.

Felatelli's act of killing the envoys sent by Zhu Youxiao did briefly draw the nobles from all over the country to his side, and together with him suppressed the domestic uprising.

But what followed was a major change in the surrounding diplomatic situation.

……

In the Far East, the envoys of the Ming Dynasty were killed in Moscow under the order of Patriarch Felatlie. The relationship between the Tsarist Russian Empire and the Ming Empire, which had never had any diplomatic ties, dropped to freezing point all of a sudden.

And as King Sigmund III of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and Ming envoy Xu Weijing solemnly signed an agreement on mutual military assistance between the Polish and Ming armies against Tsarist Russia in his palace, the surrounding situation became even more unpredictable.

On one side is the seemingly powerful Tsarist Russian Empire, and on the other side is the powerful Ming Dynasty that has just conquered the Mongolian tribes in the south and destroyed the Jurchens.

When these two parties collide, what kind of intense sparks will there be?

For a while, almost all countries and territories in Asia, Europe, and Southeast Asia were discussing this matter. The collision of the two world empires naturally had to choose a side.

Since the Battle of Jurchen in October last year, the Ming army led by Xiong Tingbi and Zhu Xieyuan successively recovered Fushun and other occupied lands in Liaodong, and then conquered Hetuala, the capital of the pseudo-gold.

Mao Wenlong also moved to the north, and soon joined the Ming army that went out of the pass, cutting off the connection between the north and south of Houjin, making it impossible for each other to help each other.

The Eight Banners Han army, which stayed behind in many places, was completely unable to withstand the overwhelming counterattack of the Ming army, and collapsed without taking advantage of it.

Subsequently, since Nurhachi sacrificed to heaven and rebelled against the Ming Dynasty in the first year of Wanli, all the lands that fell into captive hands were declared to be recovered within one year.

The counterfeit gold was destroyed, and the Tianqi Emperor flattened the imperial edict with a piece of paper, which aroused nationwide celebrations.On that day, all over the country, the streets and alleys, the warm atmosphere even surpassed the Spring Festival.

In the city of Beijing, enter Miyagi from the Right Ye Gate, pass through the Rijing Gate and then go north, and there is another worry in the resplendent Qianqing Palace.

The small seal made of ivory is cute. Yu Zhu Youxiao held it in his hand and kept playing with it. The British short-haired blue cat was lying comfortably on his feet.

Zhu Youxiao lowered his eyes, quietly listening to Shao Fuzhong, the left servant of the Ministry of War, make a statement about the battle under the steps.

Shao Fuzhong was born as a Jinshi in the Wanli period, and he was a newly promoted civil servant in this dynasty. He already sat in the high position of servant at the age of forty.

Speaking of the defeat in the front, his eyes were sunken and blood-red, and Xiong Tingbi organized a counterattack in the back, but his eyebrows were beaming and his eyes moved.

Just finished speaking, the emperor above the imperial case suddenly couldn't help coughing, and the left and right palace people hurriedly offered a cup of hot tea.

Zhu Youxiao picked up the cup and took a few sips before swallowing the itching in his throat.

Shao Fuzhong hurriedly closed the memorial: "It's still warm even though it's cold, I hope Your Majesty will take good care of the dragon's body, the great cause will last forever, and the Ming Dynasty cannot do without His Majesty."

"I see." Zhu Youxiao smiled, and said it's okay.

Just at this moment, a ray of spring breeze floated into Qianqing Palace, and Zhu Youxiao was bumped into his arms, as if a girl had gently brushed her eyes and cheeks with her hand.

"Nuer Gandusi is located in the northern border of the country. It is mostly plains and has been far away from Beijing for many years. Now the population is mostly barbarians. If you want to govern it for a long time, you need to migrate a large number of people from the pass."

After Shao Fuzhong finished speaking, Zhu Youxiao put down his teacup and nodded slightly.

The governance strategy of the Ministry of War coincides with its own opinion. This arrangement is extremely impressive for the naturalization of the newly recovered Nuergandusi territory.

Thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao said: "Instruct the household department to send people to all parts of the country immediately. Those who are displaced or homeless due to the famine will register their names with the local government."

"Afterwards, the migrants will be selected from these registered persons, and the money will be calculated on the basis of the head, and sent to the pension. The forced migrants will be punished, and I will not lightly forgive them."

Shao Fuzhong nodded quickly, and before he could leave, Wei Zhongxian hurried over, lowered his tone obviously, and said nervously:

"Master, Annan Mo Jingkuan has come to the capital."

"Mo Jingkuan?" Zhu Youxiao was taken aback.

In the Annan Dynasty, it was first destroyed by Emperor Chengzu, and became the chief envoy of Jiaozhi, and then in the Xuanzong Dynasty, it carried out a strategy of comprehensive contraction and rest with the people.

The Nuergan Dusi moved inward, and the Jiaozhi Chief Envoy was withdrawn. Until the Jiajing Dynasty, Mo Dengyong, the ancestor of the Annan Mo Dynasty, sent envoys to Zhennanguan to surrender, and dedicated the Annan land book and household registration to Daming.

Emperor Jiajing demoted Annan Kingdom to Annan Metropolitan Commander, subordinate country to territory, changed its thirteen divisions to Thirteen Xuanfu Divisions, each set up Xuanfu, Tongzhi, Deputy Envoy, and Qianshi, and listened to the generals. .

From then on until the Wanli Dynasty, Mo Chao was still in charge of his duties.

Zhu Youxiao laughed: "Why is he here?"

Wei Zhongxian said respectfully: "Returning to the emperor, in the third year of the apocalypse, Mo Jingkuan was defeated by Zheng Bing in Jialin County, and his entire army was wiped out. He escaped into the mountains and returned to Gaoping only to escape himself."

Zhu Youxiao only remembered it when he heard the words. It seemed that this happened five years ago.

The purpose, of course, is to keep Annan's country continuing to split. Only when they split can they claim their vassal status and stop provoking troubles in the border areas.

Judging from the situation, this Zheng Bing hasn't been honest for too long!

"In the fifth year of Tianqi, Zheng Bing led an army to capture Gaoping, captured and killed Mo Jinggong and a group of Mo family members, and took them to Qinghua to behead. This Mo Jinggong is Mo Jingkuan's father."

"Currently, Mo Jingkuan and his second son Mo Jingwan are the only members of the Mo family in Annan. Do we want to...?"

After listening, Zhu Youxiao had a general understanding of Annan's situation, and said, "Since they are here, let them come in."

Soon, Mo Jingkuan's second son, Mo Jingwan, who was about forty years old, entered the hall.

Looking at the officials and palace people from various ministries and palaces casting their gazes around them, it was the first time for the two of them to see such a formation, and they both unconsciously prostrated themselves on the ground.

"The sinner, Mo Jingkuan, has met the Emperor of Ming."

Zhu Youxiao pretended not to know, with a surprised face, he said: "Quickly please, you also know the news that I, Ming Dynasty, wanted to destroy the Jurchen, and you came to congratulate me?"

Both of them were taken aback for a moment, and then they were shocked in their hearts. Daming even wiped out the Jurchens in the north?

This news brought them infinite surprises, because it also showed that Daming could now free up his hands to deal with the chaotic situation in the Southwest.

This is indeed good news for Annan Moshi, who has always been on good terms with Daming.

936 Chapter Lifan Academy

"Ah...we really didn't know about this news, so congratulations to Emperor Ming!" Mo Jingkuan prostrated himself on the ground and said loudly.

His son Mo Jingwan also knelt down, kowtowed and shouted: "Congratulations to Emperor Ming!"

The smile on Zhu Youxiao's face froze, and he said, "Since you didn't come to congratulate me, why did you come here? Is Mo Jinggong okay?"

Hearing this, the smile on Mo Jingkuan's face disappeared immediately, and he cried out:

"Emperor, that's exactly why we came here. Then Zheng Bing attacked me in Gaoping, slaughtered my Mo family, and called himself emperor in the country. This is to challenge Daming!"

"I, the Mo family, have been the commander-in-chief of the Annan capital of the Ming Dynasty for generations, guarding Annan for the Ming Dynasty. Unexpectedly, the Li Dynasty in the south has always been disobedient!"

"I also hope that the great emperor can send troops quickly to help my Mo family restore the country!"

The expression on Zhu Youxiao's face became more and more shocked, and in the end, he became even more angry, and suddenly he slapped the desk table, which shocked Xiaoyin on that side.

"presumptuous!"

"This Zheng Bing doesn't take me too seriously. I reminded him five years ago not to have such unreasonable thoughts, but he wants to go his own way!"

"What does the Ministry of War think?"

Hearing this, Wang Qia, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, said: "The Mo family has indeed respected my courtiers for generations, and now it is destroyed by Lord Zheng. If we don't care, it is really unreasonable."

"What's more, with the restoration of Emperor Chengzu's territory, Annan also belongs to our Ming territory."

"If you recommend one person, you can lead the army to go to war!"

Zhu Youxiao asked, "Who is it?"

"Sun Chuanting, this man formed a Qin army. This time he went out to fight. He has made outstanding achievements in battle. He has repeatedly broken through the chariot camp and built captive cavalry. He can be a great task." Wang Qia said.

Zhu Youxiao nodded. Indeed, Sun Chuanting has experienced many years of experience in the Central Plains and outside the customs, and now he is no longer what he was when he was promoted.

Now Zhu Xieyuan and Xiong Tingbi have not yet returned to the capital, and Hong Chengchou is in a quagmire in the northwest again. The only person who can be handsome is Sun Chuanting.
