Kangxi, your Qing Dynasty is dead

Chapter 391 Our world is too small, we must make it bigger! (Please subscribe, please vote)

"Your Majesty, is this General Guangnan a minister of the Ming Dynasty? If I serve as this official, will the land of Guangnan be regarded as the land of Annan or the land of the Ming Dynasty?"

Ruan Phuc Bin, who can speak poor Teochew Mandarin, is still a bit independent!

Since Annan broke away from China in the late Five Dynasties, he has been at odds with the northern dynasty. Even the good-tempered Song Dynasty sent troops to attack Annan, let alone the Ming Dynasty.

Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty was full of martial virtue and even unified Annan for a time!It was only later that Emperor Xuande, a foolish king who was afraid of hardship and coveted comfort, gave up on Annan who had already obtained it.

The monarchs and ministers in Annan were also wary of the Ming Dynasty in the north, fearing that the other party would come to devour one-third of their land.

Although this Nguyen Phuc Bin only had a small territory in Quang Nam, and his territory was about as thin as a chopstick, he had always wanted to break away from the Annan court and establish his own country.But now facing the strong ships and guns of Ming Dynasty, he pretended to be a loyal minister of Da Nan.

After hearing this, Li Fuchen just waved his hand: "Go and bring me an Earth Ceremony!"

"A globe?" Ruan Phuc Ping was stunned, "Is it something that depicts the whole world on a round ball?"

"That's right! Duke Yang, have you seen that thing before?"

"Of course," Ruan Phuc Bin said with a smile, "We often have Westerners here. We have all kinds of Western gadgets, and there are even Western beauties."

"You're quite good at playing!" Li Fuchen laughed, "But my globe is different from the foreigners' globes!"

"It's different? Are there other earths?"

"Other earths? Maybe there are? But what this globe of mine shows is the geographical situation on our earth."

"What's the difference then?"

"It's a different angle." Li Fuchen's expression suddenly became serious. "It's a different angle to look at the problem! Mr. Yang, please be patient. You'll know after you see my globe."

While the two were talking, Li Fuchen's staff and soldiers had already moved a huge globe to the lobby.Li Fuchen then called Ruan Phucin and said, "Mr. Yang, let's take a look together."

"Okay." Ruan Fulin responded twice, and then he and Li Fuchen came to the side of the globe and looked at it carefully.

This globe is actually an ordinary globe. If there is anything special about it, it is probably that the land and oceans on the globe are marked with yellow, green, white, and black colors.

"King Nan, what's different about this earth?" Ruan Phucin looked at it for a while, but still didn't understand.

Li Fuchen said in a solemn tone: "There are four worlds on this earth!"

"Four worlds? Which four?"

"The white one is the world of European Christianity, the green one is the world ruled by Tianfang Sect, the yellow one is the world of our Shenzhou Confucianism, and the black one is the ownerless and chaotic world. Lord Yang, look at the white one now How big is the world? It’s all spread out to our doorstep! This yellow world is all that’s left of us followers of Confucius and Mencius. It’s so small, and there is a little Japan in it that has changed our Confucius and Mencius’ ways beyond recognition. What do you think? Say, is this fair? Is this dangerous? Will our world be swallowed up by the European Christian world in the future?

As far as I know, they have swallowed up the world of the New World people, and now they have also swallowed up the Nanyang Islands, the Malay Peninsula, and Luzon Island, which were originally shared by yellow and green!Lord Yang, don’t you think our world is too small and too dangerous? "

Ruan Phucin frowned deeply: "King Nan, after hearing what you said, I also feel that our world is a bit small. Moreover, Guangnan is on the edge of the Divine Continent. If they continue to expand the Western Christian world, I am afraid that Guangnan will It’s next!”

"We can't let them expand any more!" Li Fuchen gently turned the globe and pointed the Pacific coast of the New World at Ruan Phuc Bin, then pointed at a small yellow dot and said, "If we want to expand, we must expand our world." Make it big, and it will be safe when you make it big! You and I will not end up like the Aztec royal family and the Inca royal family in the New World! Duke Yang, do you know the Aztecs and Incas?"

"I know something. They asked the Spaniards to kill them all!"

Li Fuchen pulled up the earth again, pointed the slender Annan coast at Ruan Phucin, and said: "Mr. Yang, don't worry that my son will take away your territory. See for yourself, how big is your territory? If the earth Yes, big watermelon, your territory is like a sesame! If I swallow you, it won’t even be enough to fit between my teeth. So you can work with us with peace of mind. Let’s make our Confucian watermelon in China, no, expand our Confucian world. Some! When the time comes, we can recruit more generals or military envoys, and won’t our descendants have somewhere to arrange themselves?”

"Really?" Ruan Phuc Bin asked, "Then can I turn Champa south of Quang Nam into a part of our Confucian world?"

The Ruan family in Guangnan has been thinking about the territory of the Champa Kingdom for more than a day or two. It's just that Guangnan's military strength is a bit weak. If it is exhausted, it can pull out 3 people, and there is also the Zheng family in the north with [-] troops.Dogs bite dogs in South Ruan and Bei Zheng, so naturally there is no energy left to expand southward.

"Of course!" Li Fuchen said with a smile, "As long as you become the general of Guangnan in the Ming Dynasty, the land occupied by the city will be granted to you! In addition, if Beizheng becomes the general of Annan in the Ming Dynasty, he will not be able to send troops to attack Guangnan in the future. Once you get it, you can concentrate all your efforts on fighting Champa. Is that good?"

"Okay, okay, that's great!" Upon hearing this, Ruan Phuc Bin quickly bowed to Ruan Phuc Bin and bowed, "I will go down to Guangnan General Ruan Phuc Bin to pay my respects to the King. From now on, the Ruan family hopes that the King will obey him." !"

"Okay!" Li Fuchen smiled and nodded, "Does Duke Yang have an unmarried daughter? Let's have a son and a daughter to marry him!"

"Yes, yes, there are several of them!"

"Oh? Are they all beautiful?"

"Beautiful, all of them are beautiful. Especially my little ten, who is half of Portuguese blood, so beautiful!"

"Okay, okay, I want to see her!"

"Ah Zha, where are your ancestors from? Chaozhou? Zhangzhou? Or Quanzhou?"

"I am from Quanzhou. My ancestor Zheng Ke came from Quanzhou to Qinghua in Annan to make a living during the Yongle period. Later, he followed Li Taizu to conquer the world and became famous. In terms of seniority, I have to call you uncle!"

"Hahaha, Ah Zha, then from now on we will be alone and unable to write two characters of Zheng! If you have any difficulties, just tell uncle!"

Not long after Nguyen Phuc Bin officially took office as the general of Quang Nam in the Ming Dynasty, in the Prince Xi Dinh Palace in Thanh Hoa Prefecture in the north of Annan, two people named Zheng, an old man and a strong man, were discussing relatives. This discussion really involved two people. It was really a family hundreds of years ago!And the older one, Zheng Zha, the king of Nandingxi, who is in his 70s, actually has to call Zheng Jing, who is in his 30s, uncle.

"Uncle, since you said that, my nephew is really in some trouble and would like to ask uncle for help." Zheng Zha was not polite. After calling his uncle, he started to make requests.

"Say, just say it!" Zheng Jing still looked enthusiastic.

"Uncle, this Emperor Li"

"What kind of emperor is the emperor?" Zheng Jing immediately interrupted him and said, "You can only call him the King of Li! Ah Zha, you have to think clearly. You are holding the King of Li hostage to order Annan, and your family also wantonly dethroned the King of Li and killed people indiscriminately. The clan of the Le Dynasty, is this the work of a minister? Ruan Phuc Bin has already become the General of Quang Nam, or the General of Quang Nam named by the Ming Dynasty. If he wants to attack you in the name of saving King Li, and you are not a general of the Ming Dynasty , What reason does Ming have for not supporting him?"

Zheng Zha said with a troubled face: "Uncle, this Li Dynasty has always called himself emperor in Annan. If my nephew changes his title to king, I'm afraid the princes will not accept it!" "What princes?"

"Gaoping Mo family, Xuanguang Wu family."

The Mo family and the Wu family are the two "little masters" of Annan.Little Annan is now the "Four Leading Roles", Zheng, Ruan, Mo, Wu, and Li Huang who was emptied above, it's really lively!

"They?" Zheng Jing smiled, "The General's Mansion has already made arrangements. They will all be moved out of Annan!"

"Move out? Move to Guangxi?" Zheng Zha asked.

"How is that possible?" Zheng Jing said with a smile, "The Mo family and their people will be moved to the coast of the Jiulong River south of Champa City, and they will be granted the title of General Nanqi. The Wu family and their people will be moved to Pattani. After General Fengbei Danian, they are all ministers of the Ming Dynasty, and the general's subordinates have nothing to do with Annan."

The Kowloon River Basin was the area that later became Saigon, and Pattani was located at the intersection of the Malay Peninsula and the Indochina Peninsula.The former is affiliated with Chenla Kingdom, but Chenla's national power is weak and its control over the Jiulong River Basin is very weak. It is basically controlled by the local princes of Chenla.On the other side of Pattani, there is the Pattani Sultanate.

The purpose of forcibly moving the Mo family and the Wu family in Annan to Jiulongjiang and Pattani was of course to use them as cannon fodder for land reclamation!
Among them, the Jiulongjiang area is still covered with a large area of ​​virgin forest, and only a small part of the area has been developed. And if you open up a place full of miasma, many people will die!
In addition, these two "points" were also key supply points on the way from Ming Dynasty to Malacca.If it is captured by the Mo family and the Wu family, the Ming Dynasty's stronghold on Bintan Island will be much more stable.

However, I am afraid that the Dutch will not just watch the Ming Dynasty expand southward step by step. They will have to do something bad, and they may even launch an attack on the Jiulong River Basin and Pattani.

In order to prevent too many Han immigrants from dying and dampening their enthusiasm, we could only let the Mo family and the Wu family lead the Annan people to pioneer and open up wasteland.

Moreover, after they leave Annan, they will no longer be ministers of King Annan Li, but will become serious ministers of the Ming Emperor and subordinates of the general. Therefore, Li Zhongzheng can wait for the Mo family and the Wu family to open up the territory. Then recall them to Nanjing to serve as high-ranking officials in name only, or place another one of their own on top of them.

In short, there are ways!

Nanjing, the Little Palace.

Here at Zhu Cijiong, there are also distinguished guests visiting today.

This distinguished guest is Zhu Cijiong's uncle, and he is related to Li Zhongshan, Kangxi, and Fuquan. He is very much like the old Ha family in the East.However, his power is not as powerful as that of Lao Ha's family, because his territory is only North Korea.And it cannot control the whole of North Korea, only part of it.

This man was Yang Qilong, the first-class supervisor of the Qing Dynasty and North Korea.At the same time, the official position of General Zhendong of the Ming Dynasty and the title of Duke of the Sui Dynasty were now placed in front of him.

"Brother Yang, is Xiaomi okay? I heard that he became Kangxi's empress and already has the power of regent?"

The person who was asking Yang Qilong about Yang Xiaomi's current situation was Yang Xiaomi's brother-in-law Li Zhongshan, and it was he who invited Yang Qilong to Nanjing this time.

In fact, Li Zhongshan had long wanted to invite Yang Qilong back, and even offered him the price of "Eastern King of the Ming Dynasty"!

But Yang Qilong declined the title of King Dong, and he talked nonsense about asking someone to tell his fortune. If he became "King Yang Dong", he would probably lose his life, so he should be the Duke of Sui Dynasty!

This man named Yang is the Duke of Sui Dynasty. Isn't this the intention of Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty? Isn't it known to everyone on the road?

Therefore, Li Zhongshan couldn't help but want to inquire about Yang Xiaomi's current situation.

Yang Qilong said with a smile: "Xiao Mi is very proud now. He is sitting in the town capital, with great power in his hands, and he is also assisted by Prince Gong and the eight ministers."

Zhu Cijiong suddenly interjected: "The only drawback is that Kangxi may come back!"

These words touched Yang Qilong's heart!

He is already the Duke of the Sui Dynasty. What does he want to do?If Kangxi cannot come back, then his chances will be great.But it doesn't matter if Kangxi comes back. He can't get the "Later Sui", but he can still be the king of the "Later Goryeo".

However, Li Zhongshan felt that Kangxi was in danger this time!

It's Prince Gong again, and it's the Eight Ministers again. Can Kangxi come back?
It seems that the Northern Expedition must be carried out urgently, and Yang Qilong cannot be allowed to get ahead of him. Yang Xiaomi, the Queen Mother of the Qing Dynasty, must be captured alive.
Thinking of this, Li Zhongshan quickly changed the topic and said to Yang Qilong: "Brother Yang, can you do what I told you in the letter?"

The thing Li Zhongshan mentioned in his letter inviting Yang Qilong to come to Nanjing was North Korea's invasion of Japan!

In later generations, Japan is protected by its beautiful father, and it is still clamoring to "prevent North Korea" all day long. Today, Japan is still independent. Can they guard against this North Korea?

"Shikai, everyone in North Korea hates the Japanese pirates, but the people in North Korea are weak, and soldiers can't fight. I'm afraid it's a bit precarious to invade Japan!"

Yang Qilong has strong soldiers at his hands, otherwise he would not have suppressed the North Korean monarchs and ministers to death!
But shouldn’t he still have the strong soldiers in his hands to use in plotting to usurp the throne?Where can it all be used for the invasion of Japan?

Li Zhongshan smiled and said: "Brother Yang, I didn't let you take over Japan. You can invade Japan's Ezo Island. There are not many Japanese samurai on Ezo Island, and the climate and terrain there are particularly suitable for the Saurons and Baals." Khajiit activities. If I remember correctly, you have a Sauron army on hand, right?"

Yang Qilong really has Sauron soldiers at hand!
These Sauron soldiers were originally recruited by Bahai for Fuquan. Fuquan saw that each of them was very fierce, so he accepted them as personal soldiers.Later, Fuquan was defeated by Kangxi, and his Suolun soldiers were pulled over by Yang Qilong and taken to North Korea.

Yang Qilong nodded and said: "Shikai, I do have one or two thousand Sauron soldiers under my command. They are very brave and far superior to other tribes. In the past two years, whenever there are thieves in North Korea who have caused trouble, Sauron will be put down quickly once he comes out!"

I am very sure of that!
The strongest force of the Qing Dynasty was used to quell two groups of rebels in North Korea. Isn't it settled once the pacification is over?

Besides, Yang Qilong still has silver bullets and meat bullets. The really powerful masters in North Korea would have bribed him long ago!Even if someone is dissatisfied, there will be other lackeys to deal with it for him.In the end, those who can jump out to oppose him have little strength.

Yang Qilong added: "What's the point of just using them to flatten that Ezo Island? Ezo Island is a barbaric land, the weather is cold, and the Japanese themselves are not very interested. What use do I need it for?"

"Useful!" Li Zhongshan said, "Ezo Island is located at the throat of Shenzhou heading to the New World. Starting from Ezo, you can reach the New World more than [-] miles away!"

Thousands of miles may seem far away, but for a sea-going ship with smooth winds and smooth currents, traveling thousands of miles in a day is no big deal. If you are lucky, you can cross it in ten days.

Li Zhongshan added: "And there are some small islands along the way where you can add fresh water. Although the weather on Ezo Island is cold, it is not impossible to cultivate land. If North Korea can reclaim Ezo Island, then ships going to the New World in the future will You can add fresh water and supplies in Ezo, which is much more convenient.”

If you set out from Ezo Island to cross the Pacific Ocean, you only need to carry at least [-] days of fresh water and food. If you set out from Ryukyu, you have to prepare at least [-] days. For a wooden sailing ship with a certain tonnage, it will save one month of supplies. You can install more people!

In addition, starting from Ezo, it is easy to sail along the Kuril Islands and Aleutian Islands.If supply bases could be established on some of the islands, the risk of crossing the Pacific would be further reduced.

Finally, mastering the base of Ezo Island will also help to travel north to the Arctic Ocean!As long as the Ming Dynasty can control the Kamchatka Peninsula and the warm water ports in Alaska, it can block the route of wooly bears along the Arctic Ocean into the Pacific Ocean. This means that no one can compete with the Ming Dynasty for land on the North Pacific coast in the future!
