Ming Zuo

Chapter 1080 Western Regions
"Batur Hun Taiji appreciates the general's bravery very much. The remnants of Monan Mongolia are our common enemy, and we have many opportunities for cooperation in the future."

Sanzhe Kete, the representative of Moxi Mongolia, conveyed his attitude to Liang Yue.

Liang Yue was at a loss about the relationship between the Mongols, but it was Xu Yaqing's detailed explanation that gave him a little clue.

"That is to say, you are actually Oirats?"

Sanjakot puffed up his chest immediately.

"That's right, we are the descendants of Grand Master Yexian."

Liang Yue's eyes became dangerous.

"It was you Oirats who attacked the city of the capital at the beginning, and caused my Daming to lose its soldiers and generals?"

Only then did Sanjakot understand.

"It's all in the past, and now our interests are the same."

Liang Yue came to his senses, and found helplessly that his identity had changed.

He is no longer a citizen of Daming, but a traitor of Ming.

That being the case, why should he care about Daming's honor or disgrace?
And there is a saying that Sanjakot said is right, they now have a common enemy.

He looked at Xu Yaqing.

"When will the Tartars call?"

Chahar Mongolia was raided by him, suffered annihilation, and occupied the Hetao area.I believe that Man Qing will never turn a blind eye when he gets the news.

Liang Yue knew very well that with his current strength, it was impossible to defeat the Qing army.

Once the Qing army attacked, what should he do?
Xu Yaqing told him a shocking news.

"The Tartars won't come, at best, other Mongolian tribes will come and harass them."

Liang Yue was in doubt.

"Why is this?"

Xu Yaqing covered her mouth and smiled lightly.

"You don't know yet, do you? Your big enemy, Zuo Menggeng, defeated the Tartars in North Korea and suffered heavy losses. Now, the Tartars are recovering. Even if they know that you have occupied Hetao, they have nothing to do. "

He originally thought that Liang Yue would be furious when he heard the news about Zuo Menggeng.

Unexpectedly, Liang Yue's face showed joy.

"Tarzi really suffered a big loss? That's great. How many years of bird anger have I suffered, and it's time to make up for it."

Xu Yaqing remained silent, looking at the beaming Liang Yue complicatedly, wondering what she was thinking.

Sanjakot came here not just to express the meaning of the alliance.

"In Yiliba, there are still bad guys who have no clear connection with the Tartars, which will become an obstacle to our alliance. Batur Huntaiji sincerely invites you to send troops at the right time to eliminate such bad guys together."

Liang Yue understood.

That Batur Hun Taiji should have a very difficult opponent in the far west, so he urgently needs the help of his allies.

He took a fancy to himself.

"Tell me about the situation in Yilibali."

For things that he didn't understand, Liang Yue could only ask Xu Yaqing.

This woman is also really capable of tossing around. Daming, Liaodong, Peasant Army, Mongolia, and the Western Regions can all dabble.

During the time Xu Yaqing disappeared, she did a lot of things.

"The most powerful person in the Western Regions today is Gushi Khan, who is quite talented. In order to suppress the internal affairs and resist the intrusion of the Raksha people, he has already sent people to serve Huang Taiji. And it is said that he has already occupied the plateau, which is worthy of the name The king of the Western Regions. That Batuer Huntaiji was ambitious. Although he was an ally with Gushhan, he was very close to the Raksha people. Just because Gushhan is the rightful co-lord, let him throw a mouse, That's how I found you."

Liang Yue thoroughly understood the situation, but he was a little uncertain.

"I'm going to the Western Regions, and I'm afraid I won't be able to come back in this life."

Xu Yaqing didn't see it that way.

"You go to fight for Batur Huntaiji, he welcomes you. But if you want to gain a foothold there, he will immediately regard you as an enemy."

Liang Yue sneered.

"In that case, why should I help him fight?"

There was a strong charm in Xu Yaqing's voice.

"You don't know, the Western Region is very big, so big that occupying a random place is enough to become a king. Batur Huntaiji has a saying that if Gushi Khan is destroyed, Qinghai can be given to you."

"really?"

These words made Liang Yue unable to sit still.

Although he didn't know much about the situation in the Western Regions, he knew Qinghai well.

When Lien Zhan was losing streak before, Li Zicheng had always thought about marching westward to Qinghai, hoping to get supplementary horses, but in the end he fell short.

But it was precisely because of this incident that Liang Yue had a certain understanding of Qinghai.

If you can occupy this territory and obtain a stable supply of war horses, wouldn't that mean you are invincible?
Originally, Liang Yue had no idea about the Western Regions.

But now...

He couldn't help but plan.

The news of Zheng's toll price increase was quickly conveyed to Shandong.

"This is Zheng's conspiracy, and it is aimed at our Xia Kingdom."

The high-level people gathered together and quickly reached an agreement.

The Zheng family increased tolls, and Xia Guo suffered the most.

Obviously, the conflict between the two sides is gradually becoming more intense.

"What should we do now?"

Each ship has to pay an extra five hundred taels of silver tolls a year, which will greatly damage the interests of merchants in the Xia Kingdom.

And the cost is too high to be affordable.

"Since the Zheng family is not benevolent, then we are not righteous. I think it is better to send the navy to the south to seize the waterway."

As soon as Zuo Hua opened his mouth, he shouted and shouted.

This method is the most direct and most effective.

Once successful, the waterway mastered by the Zheng family will fall into Xia Guo's hands, which will mean inexhaustible wealth.

"Don't act recklessly."

Liu Yiyuan hastily stopped him.

"Our navy is in the season of renewal, and its strength is not much stronger than that of Zheng's. In a real fight, there are many dangers. We still have to wait for the new ship to be launched before it is time to care."

Everyone knows Zheng's strength very well.

With the current level of Xia Guo's navy, it may not be able to beat Zheng's.

The only hope is to wait until those Galen warships are launched and the Xia Kingdom Navy completes the upgrade before they can crush Zheng's in terms of strength.

"But it will take a long time until the new ships are launched to form combat capabilities. The merchants may not be able to bear the losses."

time.

For Xia Guo, time suddenly became the biggest problem.

Now that there is nothing they can do about the Zheng family in terms of force for the time being, everyone is stumped as to how to solve the predicament.

Only then did they feel the importance of the ocean deeply.

It can be said that there were still many high-level executives with land power thinking, and from this moment they finally opened their arms to the ocean.

But how to solve the difficulties encountered at present, we are at a loss what to do.

Hou Xun's gaze saw the honest Zuo Menggeng, and he couldn't help feeling relieved.

"Your Highness, it seems that you have Zhizhu in your hands. Do you have any tricks, can you clear up the confusion for the big guy?"

Does Zuo Menggeng have a solution?
He does.

Later generations have seen many things like trade wars, so how to deal with them should not be too easy.

He met everyone's expectant eyes, but said two words lightly.
