Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 374 Mining Worker Chechen Khan

"It turned out that things turned out to be like this. I probably already understood the situation in Dongpu." After listening to Aila's report, Chu Yun was not surprised.

The shogunate wanted to expel the forces of the Liao Army in Nagasaki Port. This is a normal thing, and it should happen sooner or later.If Chu Yun himself was the shogun, he would not want to have troops from overseas forces in his sphere of influence.

It’s just that in the seventeenth century, when there was no international order and law, the law of the jungle and colonialism were the mainstream. Whoever had the biggest fist had the final say and could establish his own colonies around the world.

"It is not easy for the shogunate to control Nagasaki Port by itself, and we have to ask whether our Beiyang Fleet agrees." Chu Yun said with a smile, "Since the Shimadzu family actually controls Nagasaki Port, it is not easy Trade, so the power expands, and the ambition also expands."

"Then how will the adults deal with this matter?" Ella asked.

"I will go to the Admiralty to make some arrangements later, which will surely defeat the Tokugawa shogunate's plan. But Chechen Khan's side... This is also an opportunity for us to intervene in Mobei affairs. If we can make full use of this opportunity, then Mobei The north will be full of our people." Chu Yun said, "Let's get Chechen Khan here secretly first, and don't let this matter be leaked. Which mine in Anshan is he now?"

"If I remember correctly, it should be the No. [-] labor camp in Anshan. This mine is where the most important prisoners or high-ranking officials are held," Ella said.

In the past three years, Anshan Town in Liaodong has used Anshan as an important iron ore mining base in the Liao Army, and the number of household registrations has reached more than [-]. It has begun to establish a rudimentary industry such as prospecting, mining, metallurgy, ordnance manufacturing, and lathe manufacturing. chain.

The No. [-] labor camp is located in a remote place in Anshan Town. As a complex of mining farms and prisons, it is surrounded by wooden fences, barbed wire, stone walls and other facilities to seal the No. [-] labor camp. Guard the captives and prisoners here.

The prisoners here include Houjin nobles, Mobei Mongolian nobles, Ming envoys who refused to obey, and big landlords who stubbornly refused to hand over their land for land publicization. Their quality and status were unimaginably high.I'm afraid that even Daming's Heavenly Prison may not have such a large generosity.

A man in his early 50s with a wrinkled beard pushed a mine cart full of ore out of the mine.His face and beard were covered with mud, and his skin was dry and black.

"Old Shuo, the supervisor of the mine is looking for you, go quickly, maybe your good days will come." A post-gold nobleman who is also a miner said to the bearded man, with envious eyes in his eyes.

As a confidant of Huang Taiji and an interest group of the Houjin regime, he is not as hopeful of immunity as the bearded man.His sentence is 20 years of hard labor, and he can only wait for Chu Yun's additional pardon.If there is no amnesty, you will really have to serve 20 years in prison before you can have freedom.It's just that he is seventy years old, and he doesn't know if he will be alive after 20 years, so he is very envious of the bearded man.

"The Fu Liao army still remembers me..." The bearded man finally had a gleam of light in his cloudy eyes.

The long-term mining work has smoothed his edges and corners, and he has almost forgotten his original identity-Khan Shuolei of Chechen in Mobei Mongolia.

"No matter what the Liao Liao Army people ask you to do, you can see the hope of getting out! When you go back, don't forget the brothers who dug the mine with you." A group of prisoners and captives in the labor reform mine said one after another.

Among these captives and prisoners, Shuo Lei's identity and status can be said to be one of the highest.

Several intelligence officers were waiting outside for Shuo Lei.They were a little surprised when they saw that Shuo Lei came out in a mess like an old miner.

"Who are you from the Fu Liao Army? Why do you think of me, a bad old man who was abandoned by you?" Shuo Lei saw the Fu Liao Army dressed in plain clothes. They were different from ordinary members of the Fu Liao Army. Can't help being suspicious.

"We are members of the intelligence department. You don't need to know the exact name. We have prepared a change of clothes for you. After you wash up and change into new clothes, we will take you to Jinzhou City to meet Our military leader." This time the matter is very important, and the one who came to pick up Shuo Lei was Wei Long, one of the four subordinates of Ella in the intelligence department.

"It's been three years... Does Chu Yun think of me now? After all, I am also Chechen Khan, one of the three tribes of Mongolia..." the bearded man said, not knowing what it was like.

Should you be angry?Because of the defeat in the war, he became a prisoner, so it would be nice not to be beheaded.Should I be grateful?Three years of working in the mining field from morning to night, his hands were covered with calluses, and his skin was dry and dark.

Under the leadership of Wei Long and others, Shuo Lei, who was in a complicated mood, took a steam train from Anshan Town Railway Station to Jinzhou City.Since the train has been opened in southern Liaoning, although there are very few trains, it is much better than riding a horse-drawn carriage across the mountains.

"Why did your military leader seek me?" Stepping into the bustling Jinzhou City, Shuo Lei began to doubt again. After three years, Chu Yun suddenly sent someone to find him. What could it be?
If something hadn't happened, with Chu Yun's character of throwing him as a khan into the mining field at will to do such a job like a commoner, there was no reason why he would think of him for no reason.

"Don't ask me about this for the time being. No matter how bad it is to come to Jinzhou City, it's nothing more than going back to mine. Apart from this life, you have nothing to lose." Wei Long said.

When Wei Long brought Shuo Lei over, the envoy sent by Babu, the son of the Khan of Chechnya, also arrived just in time.

Shuo Lei came to Chu Yun's mansion.He has not been here once.After being caught, he was taken to Liaodong, where he was detained in the No. [-] labor camp.

He looked carefully at Chu Yun's mansion, but found that it was nothing special compared to any other Ming government mansions.With the strong position of the Fu Liao Army in Liaodong, it easily defeated the strength of [-] Mobei cavalry, but the leader of the Fu Liao Army only lived in the mansion where the officials of the Ming Dynasty lived. How could he not be surprised?
The only difference is that in order to protect Chu Yun's safety, many guards were placed inside and outside the courtyard, either overtly or secretly.

"Just wait here for a while, I'll go to the backyard to inform the military master." Wei Long said.

At this time, Babu's envoys were also invited to the hall. Seeing their former Khan sitting here, and wearing simple Han clothes, they couldn't help being extremely astonished: "Khan!"
