Chapter 483 Beijing Peace Conference, carving up the Qing Dynasty (please subscribe, please vote)
In the first month of the 11th year of the Republic of Ming Dynasty, in Xiyuan, Beijing, General Li went to his residence.
After many years, General Li Zhongshan's mentality was completely different when he came to this royal garden next to the Forbidden City again.
Because his General's Day flag is now flying over the White Pagoda on the Baita Mountain on Qionghua Island in Xiyuan.In Xiyuan, on the banks of the Three Seas, most of the people coming and going were Ming officers and soldiers wearing Ming red military uniforms.
The Ming army led by Li Zhongshan had successfully entered Beijing, the former capital of the Ming Dynasty, in the last month of the [-]th year of the Republic of Ming Dynasty, and his generals simply moved into the Xiyuan beside the Forbidden City.
But Ming Dynasty is not the only master of Beijing yet!
In addition to the Ming army, there were also Wu Zhou's army and the Beiyang army of "unknown nationality".Moreover, both the Wu Zhou Army and the Beiyang Army arrived earlier than the Ming Army. Among them, the Beiyang Army entered Beijing on the second day of November. They also launched a Beijing Uprising in Beijing and saved the Qing Empress Dowager Bumu Butai and the Crown Prince. Driven away!
The Wu Zhou Army entered Beijing on November [-]th, half a month later than Yang Qilong's Beiyang Army, but they also entered based on their military exploits - the [-] Mongolian cavalry sent by Bumbutai to rescue Chang Ning and Queen Yang The new army of Zhenghuang Banner with [-] people was defeated by Wu Zhou's army commanded by Mr. Ma Baimao. Among them, the new army of Zhenghuang Banner led by Suo'etu surrendered to Wu Zhou in desperation, while Prince Bandi of Horqin and Prince Horqin Biliktu was stabbed to death by the Wu family's bamboo spear cavalry!
In addition, Wu Yingqi also sent General Wu Zhimao and led [-] cavalry from Changping Prefecture to attack and capture Kaiping Prefecture in the Qing Dynasty!
With his military exploits in capturing Kaiping Prefecture and annihilating [-] Mongol-Manchurian coalition forces, Wu Yingqi was certainly qualified to lead troops into Beijing and sit on the negotiation table to carve up the Qing Dynasty!
Although Li Zhongshan came the latest, he did not arrive in Beijing until late December of the [-]th year of the Republic of China.But he holds the most chips in his hand!The main force of the Qing Dynasty was wiped out by him, the Queen Regent of the Qing Dynasty surrendered to him, and the late Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty was assassinated by the daughter of Obai while fighting him (the official announcement must say so), and the Qing Dynasty All of Shandong under his rule, most of Zhili and part of Henan, were occupied by Li Zhongshan's army.
Moreover, Li Zhongshan's Northern Expeditionary Army had as many as 40 front-line troops, which was far more powerful than the armies in the hands of Wu Yingqi and Yang Qilong!
However, since Yang Qilong was responsible for the Beijing Uprising and Wu Yingqi was responsible for destroying the Mongolian-Manchu coalition forces and regaining Kaiping, Li Zhongshan could not immediately break up and start a war with them. In any case, it is necessary to be polite first and then fight. If there is no agreement before fighting, it is still necessary.
Besides, Li Zhongshan's army has been fighting for several months and has swallowed up a lot of territory.Moreover, the back road was flooded. Now the place where the Yellow River burst its banks needs to be blocked, the newly occupied territory needs to be digested, and the troops also need to rest and replenish.Moreover, the weather in the north is too cold, which makes it difficult for both the Huai Army and the Southern Army.No matter what, we have to wait until April and May before we can start the large-scale conquest again.
Therefore, after Li Zhongshan arrived in Beijing, he decided to convene a Beijing Peace Conference to carve up the legacy of the Qing Dynasty. He also asked Kong Shenggong, Kong Yuqi, who arrived in Beijing with him, to come forward and invite various factions to gather in Beijing to discuss the carving up.
And these various sects, of course, are not just the Ming Dynasty, the Zhou Dynasty, and the Beiyang Dynasty. Although the Qing Dynasty has died, such a large territory is still there!Moreover, not all of these territories were directly under the Qing court. A large number of territories were granted to various princes, large and small.Some of these princes still have some strength at hand, enough for them to have a seat at the negotiating table that determines their future destiny.
In addition, Spain, the Netherlands, Portugal, England, and Japan, the "allies" of the Qing Dynasty, stationed missions in Tianjin Weidu.Now that the Qing Dynasty is gone in the blink of an eye, why don't they come and take a look?
The Qing Dynasty was the main force of the Eleven-Nation Alliance on the East Asian battlefield in World War Zero!
The Qing Dynasty was dead, and Wu Zhou was about to make peace alone again. How could this East Asian battlefield be sustained?
Moreover, the situation on the Western battlefield during this period was also very unfavorable for the Eleven-Nation Alliance. Louis XIV killed all sides. He first marched into Rome to support the Catholic Church and swept across northern Italy. Later, he attacked from the west to the east, pretending to attack the Spanish mainland, and then actually took the west. Belongs to the Netherlands.Although the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and the Holy Roman Empire sent troops to fight Louis XIV, Louis' French army was one against four and was still able to handle it with ease.
In the summer campaign of 1683, the French army also defeated the "British, Dutch, German, and Spanish" coalition forces, captured Brussels and Antwerp one after another, and dealt a devastating blow to the 6.5-strong HRE army commanded by the Duke of Lorraine, killing and Captured 5 of them!
Due to the heavy losses suffered by the HRE on the battlefield in the Spanish Netherlands, the Ottoman-Turkish Empire, which had always wanted to launch a big wave in Central Europe, also began to make preparations - in its original history, the Ottoman-Turkish Empire had long been against the gods. Luo took action!However, in the past two years, due to the continuous incursions into Persia by Wu Shicong, the Pingxi general of Wu Zhou, the Ottoman-Turkish Empire felt the danger and the opportunity to carve up Persia, so Sultan Muhammad IV postponed his plan to advance westward.
However, as the Qing Dynasty destroyed the country, Wu Zhou had to face the powerful Ming Dynasty alone on the eastern front. He might transfer Wu Shicong's legion to the east and make peace with Persia at the same time.
Once the worries of the Ottoman-Turkish Empire are relieved, the Holy Roman Empire, which has been weakened by the French, may face a huge threat from the east. The Holy Roman Empire is not only a barrier to Western Europe, but also the most important country such as Spain, the Netherlands, and England. A recruiting place for troops!
If all the Germans worship God, where will Spain, the Netherlands, and England go to recruit soldiers?Moreover, Louis of France may also hold high the Catholic flag and march into Austria when the HRE collapses, and replace it with the HRE.
By that time, a great empire that ruled Western and Central Europe was born!
In addition, the rule of the Kingdom of Spain in the New World is also on the verge of collapse!
After the Aztec Republic's army won a great victory at the Battle of Don Carmen Estate, they crossed the Sierra Madre del Sur and began to approach the Mexica Valley step by step.The Indians, mixed-race whites, and even some native whites in New Spain were bewitched by the republican ideas of the Aztec Republic and joined the Aztec Republican Army one after another!
New Spain is in danger!
Under this circumstance, Spain, the Netherlands, England, and Portugal all intended to end the Eastern War as soon as possible. Therefore, the missions of Spain, the Netherlands, Portugal, and England in Tianjin also shamelessly came to Beijing.
As for the Japanese mission, the Tokugawa shogunate in Japan did not theoretically go to war with the Ming Dynasty, but they provided a large number of mercenaries to Spain, the Netherlands, and England, and these mercenaries were sent to the beach of Hangzhou Bay in large numbers by the Spanish and the Dutch. , captured seven or eight castles, including Pinghu County, and launched several attacks on Jinshan County, Jiaxing Prefecture Xiushui, and Songjiang Prefecture Lou County, but they were all repelled by Li Zhongzheng.
In this process, Japanese mercenaries were continuously sent to Pinghu, and the number of troops invested successively has reached as many as [-] to [-]!
But with so much investment, no breakthrough has been achieved, and there are signs of falling into the quagmire of trench warfare. It is not easy to withdraw the troops now.Because the Ming Navy’s ocean-going fleet that previously sailed to America has returned to the Western Pacific!It also passed directly through the Luzon Islands and entered the South China Sea, posing a threat to the Dutch rule in the East Indies and the Strait of Malacca!Under this circumstance, the Spanish Armada would naturally go south to find the Ming Dynasty's ocean-going fleet for a decisive battle. Once they left, the logistical supplies of the Japanese mercenaries who were thrown on the shore of Hangzhou Bay would become a problem.
Therefore, the Tokugawa shogunate also wanted to make peace with the Ming Dynasty as soon as possible while still having some capital. It would be more ideal if the land in Pinghu County could be exchanged for some "city rewards".
In addition, during the decisive battle of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Golden Horde Khan Galdan, who had been stationed in Wulanbutong Mountain in Mobei, also sent a mission to Beijing.Galdan's goal is to own the Mobei Grassland and the Moxi Grassland, and become the "Great Khan" of all Mongolia!
In short, the current city of Beijing is a "power game table" where representatives from all forces gather, and players from all walks of life want to play on this card table!
And Li Zhongshan, as the player with the most chips and the biggest trump card on this poker table, certainly doesn't mind playing a few games in various aspects while his army is resting.
Today, the 11th day of the first lunar month in the [-]th year of the Republic of China, the general, after celebrating the "Tangyuan Festival", left Qionghua Island early in the morning under the guidance of his sister-in-law, the former Queen Yang of the Qing Dynasty, and walked along the frozen Taiye Pond. The west coast goes all the way south, heading straight to Yingtai Island.
Yingtai Island is theoretically the place where Yang Xiaomi is under "house arrest". However, the former empress of the Qing Dynasty who was under house arrest can still move freely in Xiyuan, and can even enter and leave Qionghua Island where the general himself lives. You can meet guests on Yingtai Island - mainly old relatives and friends, such as Wu Yingqi, the prime minister of Wu Zhou Dynasty, Nalan Mingzhu, the former governor of Liaodong in the Qing Dynasty, Duolong, the former governor of Liaodong in the Qing Dynasty, and Yang Qilong, the former minister of Beiyang in the Qing Dynasty and supervisor of Korea. , and Queen Yang's "good sister" Anukedun (Galdan's wife).
Today's visitors were Wu Yingqi and Yang Qilong, so after receiving the news, Li Zhongshan and Yang Xiaomi left Qionghua Island together, and then walked to Yingtai Island.
The place where Yang Xiaomi arranged for Li Zhongshan to meet Wu Yingqi and Yang Qilong was the Hanyuan Hall on Yingtai Island.
At the beginning of the meeting, there were only five people in the huge Hanyuan Hall: Li Zhongshan, Wu Yingqi, Yang Qilong, Yang Xiaomi and Shang Shuying, who was responsible for serving tea and water. Everyone else left. To Yingtai Island.
"Prime Minister Wu, General Li, we are all our own people. We worked together to fight against the Qing Dynasty, and now we have finally succeeded! Now the Qing Dynasty has fallen into decline, but there is still a lot of industry left behind. How should we divide this huge foundation? Should we discuss it first?"
After chatting for a while, Yang Qilong changed the subject and got straight to the point.
"Shikai, the destruction of the Qing Dynasty this time is mainly due to you and the Ming Dynasty. We Wu Zhou are just helping. Of the land in Shanxi, I, Wu Zhou, only took the Datong Prefecture. The rest of the Great Wall was originally owned by the Qing Dynasty. Wu Zhou will not take any land. What do you think?"
Of course Wu Yingqi didn't dare to ask for too much Han land, after all, the Ming Dynasty couldn't afford to offend it now!Moreover, what Wu Zhou lacked was not land, but population, a population that could follow Wu Zhou to move westward.
Li Zhongshan smiled slightly when he heard this: "Prime Minister Wu, do you still want Meiyu (Wu Shifan) to be the last emperor of Eastern Wu?"
Wu Yingqi's face darkened, and his tone became serious: "Li Shikai, what do you mean? It's not enough to swallow up the Qing Dynasty, but you still want to destroy me, Wu Zhou?"
Li Zhongshan said: "In the past, Sun Quan once asked Zhuge Zhi and Wei Wen to float tens of thousands of people to Taiwan. Unfortunately, they were killed by miasma on the island and many died of illness. In the end, they only brought back thousands of natives, which was regarded as a futile return. . Every time Zhongshan reads this period of history, he feels sorry for Zhuge Zhi and Wei Wen. In fact, the sea journey from the Yangtze River Estuary to Kyushu Island is only 1500 miles, which is almost the same as going to Taiwan. Moreover, the climate on Kyushu Island is similar to that of China. , there is no calamity of malaria, the island has long been inhabited by natives and Chinese immigrants. If the Wu army arrives, they will definitely be able to open up a county. It was the second year of Huanglong that Zhuge Zhi and Wei Wen came to power, and it would be 50 years before the fall of Soochow. If Sun Hao could run Jiuzhou for 50 years, when Wu fell, could he sail into the sea and go to Jiuzhou to start a new business in Soochow?"
"You want me, Dazhou, to give up our ancestral heritage and move westward to the barren land of Hezhong and the Mughals?" Wu Yingqi had long known what Li Zhongshan was thinking, but he was still not willing to do so. Although the land in the river and the Mughals was enough Large, much larger than Shaanxi, Gansu, Sichuan, Yunnan, and Guizhou.But the population there is too small, and there are even fewer Han people.After the Wu family ran away, it was not easy to manage the Wu family's situation in Shaanxi, Gansu, Sichuan, Yunnan, and Guizhou.
"The Mughal land in the river is not a barren land," Li Zhongshan turned to look at the graceful Yang Xiaomi, "Xiaomi, you know what the Mughal land in the river is like. Tell me about it!"
Yang Xiaomi smiled slightly and bowed to Wu Yingqi: "Prime Minister Wu doesn't know that although there is drought and little rain in the river, which is not conducive to farming, there is a blessed land called Taiping Valley. Because it is nourished by the melted snow of Tianshan Mountain, the water and soil are as fertile as Tianfu in Sichuan. .Xuan Ye also wanted to run the Taiping Valley and Tianfu land as a retreat that day. Unexpectedly, his destiny has been exhausted and he will have no blessings to go west. Prime Minister Wu, please don't learn from Xuan Ye!"
Li Zhongshan said: "Prime Minister Wu, I, the Ming Dynasty, must unify the Central Plains! Why don't Wu Zhou move to the west of Ye'erqiang's hometown, and all the land in Hezhong and the Mughals belong to the Great Zhou Dynasty. From now on, the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Eastern Ming Dynasty will be mutually fraternal countries." ? If the Prime Minister feels that the population of Hezhong and Mughal people is insufficient, even if more bannermen are moved to Kaiping Prefecture and Shuntian Prefecture, they can follow Prime Minister Wu! The population of Shanxi, Shaanxi, and Gansu, Prime Minister Wu, how much do you want to move to the west? Daming Ming Dynasty Don’t stop me!”
As he spoke, he looked at Yang Qilong again.
Yang Qilong smiled and said: "Prime Minister Wu, if you feel that the travel expenses are not enough, Ruixin Tang can lend you a sum of money, how about 1000 million taels? If you feel that moving is troublesome, you can ask Shanxi merchants in Shanxi to help. They are very capable in this business. Good at it!"
Wu Yingqi is also thinking that there are about 20 Han people (banner people) in Taiping Valley, and it will not be a big problem to bring another 20 people from Beijing and Kaiping. The Shanxi merchant group in Shanxi can move over 10 people. Horqin Mongolia is a tourist destination. It is not a problem for herders to move 30 people there.Wu Zhou can always move 60 million upwards to his own inner territory.
In addition, Wu Zhou had already moved a large number of Hui people from Shaanxi and Gansu and the Chagatai and Hui people in the Western Regions to Hezhong, and 30 to [-] people passed there one after another.
Adding the above together, the total is about 200 million.
The population of 200 is about 400% of Wu Zhou's total population in Han Dynasty. Even if the locals in Hezhong and Mughal areas are included, the population will be doubled at most, to [-] million.
Moreover, Galdan is also aiming at the Mughal grasslands, and he will probably get a lot of them. It is not easy for the whole country to move westward!No, you have to pay more!

It is not a problem for herders to move 30 people there.Wu Zhou can always move 60 million upwards to his own inner territory.

Adding the above together, the total is about 200 million.
The population of 200 is about 400% of Wu Zhou's total population in Han Dynasty. Even if the locals in Hezhong and Mughal areas are included, the population will be doubled at most, to [-] million.
