Daming Jingtai: I am the eternal benevolent king
Chapter 290: Destroying a country in 24 days, encountering obstacles on the Flame Mountain
Chapter 290: Destroying a country in 24 days, encountering obstacles on the Flame Mountain
Fang Ying bowed three times and kowtowed nine times to the secret decree.
There are three secret orders in total.
July, August and September, one letter per month.
The most important one is to take over the cities north of Hanoi and take actual control of these territories before the rainy season next year.
And set fire to the mountains, smooth the roads, accommodate immigrants as soon as possible, build forts, and build defenses.
"Mr. Bian, please transfer to Hongji and tell Xia Xun to gather the Annan refugees, build a city, and repair roads. There is no need to rush to annex the territory. The foundation stone must be laid first."
Fang Ying was determined to achieve great success in regaining Annan.
"I would like to ask Mr. Xia Xunxia again, how much food that is not moldy does he still have in his hand? Please transport it northward urgently and send it to the center together!"
Fang Ying did not dare to neglect the matter of transporting food.
But after this rainy season, the soldiers and people ate with open stomachs, and there was not much left.
"I obey the Governor's orders!"
After staying in Tangzhou for a few days, Bian Yong went east to Hongji.
Fang Ying began to organize his army and prepared to immigrate to Wu, Anhui and Huai provinces.
After a rainy season, all the wolf soldiers in Guangxi have cubs, and those Annan ladies are all pregnant.
Such people cannot immigrate and must stay locally to avoid chaos.
There are also some who are unwilling to leave and cannot be forced to leave.
Fang Ying issued an order to mobilize the soldiers stationed in various cities. It was found that about two-thirds of the soldiers and their wives were pregnant.
There are more than 70 Guangxi wolf soldiers who came to Annan for food!
Nearly 30 daughters-in-law have stomach problems, and there will be an additional 30 births in the coming year!
This is a huge test for northern Annan. The land in Annan cannot support so many people, and Guangxi cannot support so many people either!
Fang Ying encountered troubles with happiness.
After a month of rainy season, the Wolf soldiers have become very proficient in Chinese. They can speak a hundred Chinese characters, and some can even write their own names.
Nonsense, if Fang Ying fails to meet Fang Ying's requirements, Fang Ying will separate them from each other in minutes.
Even their Annan daughter-in-law can speak a hundred words of Chinese.
It's amazing. I can already speak [-] words. Although I can barely communicate in Chinese, I can understand a lot.
Fang Ying once again ordered that before the spring of next year, the entire army would be divided into areas. Soldiers who could speak [-] Chinese characters would be allocated an extra hectare of land. Every [-] more Chinese characters that could be spoken would be allocated an extra hectare of land. Women and children were included.
In order to encourage local soldiers to become Chinese, Fang Ying used any method.
As for the food, he did not collect it all and transport it to the capital.
Instead, as a reward, the soldiers were given wedding gifts, including five kilograms of rice each, and some were reserved for emergency use. The rest were collected and transported to the Ming Dynasty.
There were originally [-] grain ships, but in November, only [-] grain ships were left to go to sea and sent to Guangxi.
Accompanying the ship were a group of warships, [-] boatmen, and their concubines.
The Ming Dynasty treated the boatmen favorably and gave them Annan wives, and forced them to speak Chinese. Like the soldiers, if they could not speak Chinese after the deadline, their wives would be confiscated.
In mid-November, [-] sea-going ships set sail from Hongji Port. Xia Xun personally escorted them and transported them to Guangxi.
The sailors trained by Xia Xun were beginning to take shape and he was confident in escorting the grain ships back to China.
Bian Yong finally arrived in Hanoi.
After the rainy season in Hanoi, the political situation seems turbulent.
Bian Yong met his father Bian Yong and sent a message to his father.
"After passing on the imperial edict, go back quickly. This is not a place for you to mess around." Bian Yong said his father's airs.
Bian Yong kowtows respectfully to show his courtesy.
"Father, everything is well at home. Your Majesty, please don't worry about the family. Although my son is on the road, he still studies every day and does not dare to waste time."
Bian Yongcai nodded slightly: "It is your good fortune that you can become Mr. Nian's disciple. You should respect your teacher and learn how to be a human being. Don't disgrace the Bian family's family tradition!"
"My son will obey his father's teachings." Bian Yong kowtowed respectfully.
Bian Yongcai nodded slightly and asked him to get up: "The situation in Hanoi is in danger. I will write all the reports to my father in a secret letter. You can just take them back to the capital. We will set out tomorrow and leave immediately."
Bian Yong had never seen his father look so anxious.
"Ugh!"
Bian Yong sighed, not treating his son as a child, and revealed something to him:
"King Annan killed the powerful minister Ruan Chi, and the Ruan family made a mad counterattack."
"The descendants have been completely killed, and even the eldest son of the king died unexpectedly."
"This Hanoi is like a raging fire cooking oil. As long as there is a spark, it will explode."
But Bian Yong frowned and asked: "What does it have to do with me, Daming?"
Bian Yong was slightly startled. His son has really grown up through this journey.
"Governor Fang and Mr. Xia have occupied the northeastern part of Annan. Hanoi has long known about it. The ambition of the Ming Dynasty has aroused the hatred of everyone in Annan. Being an envoy to my father is like sitting on pins and needles."
Bian Yong smiled bitterly.
The situation in Annan is getting worse and worse, and Ding Lie is trying to welcome Li Kechang as emperor.
However, Li Sicheng sent his chamberlain out of the capital to deliver poison to Li Kechang. Li Kechang had already committed suicide by drinking the poison.
And Li Sicheng was already suffering from drug addiction. The addiction was very strong. There were fortune tellers who offered love potions to Li Sicheng. Li Sicheng spent the night with ten women. Three of them could not bear the whipping and died. However, Li Sicheng was still bright and in control. The intention is to go.
On the contrary, after killing Ruan Chi, he gained a group of confidants. Although he was firmly suppressed by the Political Council, Li Sicheng did not follow martial ethics and often engaged in assassinations, and several powerful officials were killed.
But this is September.
"Father, doesn't this suit Daming's wishes?" Bian Yong wondered.
"Letting Annan continue to be ruined is in line with Ming Dynasty's wishes."
Bian Yong smiled bitterly: "The problem is, this was the situation a month ago!"
"Last month, the Political Council received accurate information that Governor Fang seized the Annan city and seemed to intend to annex Annan. This has aroused the common hatred of Annan."
"In front of the Ming Dynasty, there are only two ways to attack the north of Hanoi and break up with Annan;"
"Second, return to Guangxi."
"The problem is that my father sent a letter to Governor Fang, but Governor Fang is not in Tangzhou. Instead, he has returned to Zhuque Pass and is immigrating."
"Governor Fang missed a good opportunity, and the Annan incident caused trouble again!"
Bian Yong found it very difficult.
But Bian Yong frowned: "Father, my son thinks that seizing Annan City now will solidify Ming Dynasty's ambition."
"Furthermore, along the way, my son saw corpses strewn across the fields and people dying of hunger. He was worried that a plague would break out in Annan."
"It is absolutely correct not to seize the city now."
"Father, my son has taken the liberty to request you. You may wish to submit your resignation to the Annan court. You can lead your army westward and be sent as an envoy to Siam."
"First, Your Majesty will tell you that your mission is to go to Siam to trade with the Western Barbarians."
"Secondly, the situation in Annan is so chaotic. Outsiders like us in Hanoi can actually stabilize the situation."
"Third, when Governor Fang is finished, he will definitely capture all the cities in northern Annan. The winter time in Annan is very short, so we have plenty of time to regain the lost ground."
Bian Yong looked at his son who was talking eloquently, with a look of surprise in his eyes: "Kezhen, you can really take charge of your own business."
Bian Yong was stunned and kowtowed: "It's all because of my father's good education."
"No, it's His Majesty's training and your teacher, Mr. Nian, who taught me well. After my father returns to China, I must give him a big gift to thank Mr. Nian."
Bian Yong feels that his son's strategy is feasible.
It was time for the mission to continue moving south, but they stayed in Annan, which made it difficult for Annan to do anything.
If they leave, Annan will be in civil strife. As for how Hanoi plans to treat Fang Ying, let Fang Ying have a headache. He is on an envoy to Siam.
Go south, to Siam.
The next day, Bien Yong submitted his resignation, and the mission left Hanoi south and headed west to Siam.
There was no diversion to Champa.
The Champa Kingdom is gone, leaving only a bare king. Bianyong's departure will also cause more trouble.
This was something they didn’t know before Ming Dynasty came.
The mission passed through Laos and Cambodia and headed to Siam.
At the same time, Bian Yong took all the intelligence collected by Bian Yong on the Central and South China region and sent it back to the center, returning the same way.
When arriving in Tangzhou.
The general of Tangzhou was replaced by Tao Cheng.
Tao Cheng was urgently transferred to Annan. After Tao Cheng organized his troops, he moved westward and began to attack Annan City.
Bian Yong met Fang Ying at Zhuque Pass.
Fang Ying is supervising the moving army.
Of the more than 70 Guangxi wolf soldiers, only 13 were collected, and together with their families, they were loaded onto ships and shipped to the south of the Yangtze River.
Fang Ying described the situation to the center.
The emperor personally approved that these Guangxi wolf soldiers should be scattered in northern Annan and live in peace on the spot, with plenty of fertile land. Those who were unwilling to serve as soldiers would be converted into civilians.
Because northern Annan was included in Guangxi Province, these people are still Guangxi people.
Fang Ying recruited another 15 natives from Guangdong, assembled an army of [-], and transported it to the three provinces of Jiangnan.
He ordered Taocheng to march westward and engulf northern Annan.
The 64 natives who can speak simple Chinese will become the new northern Annan people.
He also allowed cities to receive refugees from Annan and made sure to prevent epidemics.
Once signs of the epidemic were discovered, they were immediately killed, buried, and isolated. He left a large number of doctors in Annan.
At the same time, he asked the central government to dispatch officials to Annan.
No, this place is not called Annan, but southern Guangxi.
The central meaning is that it is divided by the Lujiang River, and all the way to the north of Hanoi and the north of Halong Bay are included in Guangxi.
It is divided into three prefectures, which are cut vertically by Zhuque Pass. The north is called Jinjiang Prefecture, the south is called Wu'an Prefecture, and then the southern part of Nanning Prefecture, Siming Prefecture, Longzhou, Pingxiang Prefecture, Siling Prefecture plus Annan's Guangning Prefecture. The province is divided into Fenghuang Prefecture.
Jinjiang Prefecture, Wu'an Prefecture, and Fenghuang Prefecture were merged into Guangxi.
Tao Cheng first controlled these three prefectures, and then moved westward to control the western area.
However, these places are not entirely under the direct control of Annan. There are many places where the chieftain still has the final say, especially in places close to Yunnan, which is completely controlled by the chieftain.
Xue Xuan had no time to come and see the newly incorporated land in Guangxi. He was very busy in Guangxi. He began to request the central government to transfer a large number of scholars and candidates to enter the Nansan Prefecture to educate the people.
At the same time, he also described the Xuande Dynasty's Jiaozhi rule at length, pointed out the current shortcomings, the reasons for the Xuande Dynasty's withdrawal, etc.
Sent to the center, Beijing was already cold.
Zhu Qiyu summoned the ministers to discuss.
"Your Majesty, there are many reasons for the country to withdraw from Jiaozhi. The veteran will only mention a few key points."
Yao Kui said seriously: "First of all, the political situation in the court was fierce at that time, and officials who had been demoted came to govern Jiaozhi Province. Therefore, the officials had hatred in their hearts and only regarded Jiaozhi as a money bag for corruption. They did not think about it at all. How to govern Cochin.”
At that time, the king of Han and the prince were competing for the throne, and the situation in the court was tense.
"Secondly, the people of Annan were not convinced by the incorporation into the Celestial Dynasty, and they rebelled endlessly, which resulted in the country being forced to withdraw from Annan."
"Third, as His Majesty said, we are too good to Annan. If we treat the Annan people as slaves, there will be no consequences of withdrawing from Annan."
This is the truth.
Damn, that's not colonization, it's raising a son!
"Fourth, it's still a matter of the DPRK situation. If the DPRK situation is not stable, the world will naturally be unstable. Even the provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi have not been assimilated. How can we care about Jiaozhi!"
That's right, Emperor Taizong was just demonstrating his martial arts skills.
They don’t pay much attention to Annan land at all.
This is the fundamental reason why Ming Dynasty lost Jiaozhi.
"Fifth, at that time, the Ming Dynasty's army was weak, its finances were tight, and the rebellion was suppressed for many years, resulting in the finances being unable to make ends meet."
Lack of money is also the main problem in losing Jiaozhi.
The emperor had to continuously generate money in order to defend his huge territory.
Yao Kui is right.
He spoke eloquently and said more than a dozen things.
"Yao Qing, what do you think should be done to annex Annan this time?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"The court should send a high-ranking official to supervise Cochin Province."
"From the center to the bottom, we should pay attention to Cochin Province."
"For example, during this year's Beijing inspection, you can issue a decree to officials who go to places where Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi meet to improve their political performance and increase the enthusiasm of officials."
Look, after breaking the rules of the ancestral system and breaking the tight spell imposed on the emperor by the civil servants, wouldn’t the vision of the officials be opened up?
It's not that the Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty were incompetent, but that they focused their ability on fighting with the emperor and fighting for power.
So Daming can’t do it!
"Now that the center has a lot of money, Your Majesty can lure it with money..."
Before Yao Kui finished speaking, Zhu Qiyu waved his hand: "I am not interested in spending money to support the people of other countries. My money is the money of the people of Ming Dynasty and can only be used in Ming Dynasty."
"Your Majesty, please listen to what I have to say."
Yao Kui rolled his eyes: "If the Ming Dynasty wants to rule Annan, it also needs to win the hearts of Annan..."
"Forget Annan and Annan. Annan should no longer exist. It should be called Jiaozhi instead." Zhu Qiyu said.
"Old minister obeys!"
Yao Kui continued: "What I said about luring them with wealth and goods is to lure local nobles and make them be used by the central government."
Wang Fu objected: "Master Yao, it was these gentry who were responsible for the abandonment of Annan before the Ming Dynasty! They are like insatiable gluttons who cannot be fed no matter how much I feed them."
"Can you let me finish?"
Yao Kui puffed his beard and glared, but His Majesty interrupted him. You kid can't get along with me?
"You say it, you say it." Wang Fu touched his nose and laughed dryly.
"Please allow me to finish."
Yao Kui rearranged his thoughts and spoke faster: "The rule of Annan lies in strong soldiers and money."
"Annan is difficult to treat. Like Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi, it has many mountains and lush trees."
"If you want to change this situation, you have to cut down forests or even set fire to the mountains, level the roads, and repair the roads."
"We can give benefits to the gentry, let them manage the people of Annan, go into the mountains to cut down trees, and then use them to level the land. The central government will promise them benefits."
"When they are used up, they will start to develop the slave trade and sell people to the Ming Dynasty. These gentry will be useless. Send strong soldiers to kill them all."
"If a large number of Han people move in, this Jiaozhi will completely become the Jiaozhi of the Ming Dynasty."
Doesn’t Yao Kui also understand colonial thinking?
In colonization, profit is the first priority, and land is second.
Zhu Qiyu nodded slightly: "What do you think?"
"Wei Chen thinks that it is not the Ming Dynasty that should step in to kill the donkey."
"It is better to raise a band of ruthless bandits and, when necessary, drive the ruthless bandits to kill the gentry."
"There is no need to destroy the family, just cut off their future." Geng Jiuchou wanted to cherish Ming's feathers.
After all, there are not only Annan but several countries in Central and South China.
If you do this extremely well, it will not be easy to conquer those countries in the future.
"Okay, you will discuss it as appropriate. After the discussion, you can directly issue the decree."
Zhu Qiyu stopped discussing the matter: "Fang Ying and Xue Xuan both shouted that there is a shortage of people. From where can we send a group of people there?"
"Your Majesty, in order to educate all the people, you don't need to recruit people, just show talents."
Wang Fu said: "There are many poor and talented people in the world. As long as your Majesty opens a gap, all those who are willing to serve you will bow down."
This is the experience Wang Fu absorbed from withdrawing from Annan.
First, the local gentry in Annan must not be trusted;
Secondly, Jinshi cannot be used. Jinshi have high vision but low skill, so it is not as effective as promoting talents from the bottom.
"It's okay to select from all over the world, but one person must be appointed as the supervisor."
"I would like to warn those scholars that they went to Jiaozhi to serve the country. If anyone dares to be greedy or have evil thoughts, I will put them to death!"
Zhu Qiyu said seriously: "Select an upright person from the Hanlin Academy to go to Jiaozhi to supervise these officials."
"These scholars go to Jiaozhi to serve as officials, not as officials."
"There will be no officials in the new provinces."
"All enabled as officers."
The courtiers tried to persuade him, but the emperor refused to listen.
When we lost Jiaozhi, we felt like the emperor and his ministers. It was Emperor Taizong who conquered Jiaozhi, not Emperor Xuanzong. Of course he didn't care about losing Jiaozhi.
What Zhu Qiyu wants to do must be done while he is alive!
Otherwise, when you leave, even if your son takes over, he will not listen to you, and the New Deal will inevitably come to an abrupt end.
A few days later, he was promoted to the Wenhua Hall.
Zhu Qiyu met with the scholars recruited in the capital. These scholars knelt under the Wenhua Hall, and Zhu Qiyu looked down at them.
"I've summoned you to see you, and I only want to tell you one thing!"
"Jinshi in the imperial court are like crucian carps crossing the river, but I am using you to give you a chance to leap into officialdom."
"You don't have the title of Jinshi, but if you want to gain a foothold in the court, you must show your ability. At least you must not be afraid of hardship and fatigue, so that you can have a chance to compete with Jinshi."
"When you go to Jiaozhi, be prepared to endure hardships. Those who want to enjoy themselves or be corrupt should give up this thought as soon as possible! There is no need to go, lest I chop off the dog's head!"
"I sent you to Jiaozhi to take care of Jiaozhi and guard Jiaozhi."
"I'm just telling you one thing. Once Jiaozhi is lost, I'm the only one who will ask you! When the time comes, your nine tribes will suffer, don't blame me for not reminding you!"
"do you understand?"
Those scholars were so frightened that they thought they were going to Jiaozhi to catch the autumn wind, but the emperor cursed them.
"The students will know."
"Louder!" Zhu Qiyu yelled.
The scholars loudly said they understood.
"I want to be at the center. When I see your achievements in Jiaozhi, I will clean up immediately and set off in the afternoon." After Zhu Qiyu lectured them, he sent them away.
Talent selection is taking place all over the country, and every prefecture has a quota.
Qi Shun, last year's second best in the new department, was sent to serve as the supervisor of Jiaozhi, responsible for controlling, teaching, and supervising these new officials. When officials from various places in Jiaozhi are on track, he will return to the center.
The entire province of Guangxi has a completely complete territory.
And Gansu is still missing a corner.
Gansu is incomplete without Hami.
On September [-]th, Kou Shen, who was stationed in Xining, opened Guancheng and attacked Haiyan, the first city in Hami adjacent to Gansu!
Haiyan City is located on the shore of Hubei Lake in Qinghai, south of the Qilian Mountains.
Kou Shen led another 1 cavalrymen in Gansu, for a total of [-] cavalrymen. Together with Tao Jin, they captured Haiyan in just one day.
Marched westward at starry night and captured Gangcha.
Gangcha is also a city on the northwest bank of Qinghai Lake.
Kou Shen was stationed in Gangcha, while Tao Jin personally led two thousand cavalry, went north to conquer Qilian, and occupied the southern foot of Qilian Mountain.
The two armies moved westward at the same time, and on the first day of October, they captured Lake Hala.
Hami is like a long strip, inserted between Dosdusi and Ming Dynasty. This city like a cone zone was all captured by Kou Shen.
Hami was too weak, and Kou Shen walked without encountering much resistance.
The Gansu army marched westward and sent infantry into the city to gather the Hami people and garrison the city.
The first of October.
Chen You, who was stationed in Suzhou, left Jiayuguan in the west and led his army to the west.
First capture Yumen, then capture Shazhou. On the tenth day of October, the army regained Shazhou.
Divide your forces here.
Chen You led his army to the west, while Shenying led his army to the north and captured the city in the north.
On October [-], Chen You recaptured Dunhuang.
Fighting all the way, there was not much resistance at all. Hami was used to being ravaged. Wala bullied them, Duosdusi bullied them, Ming Dynasty looked down on them, and even Turpan continued to annex their territory.
In addition, their king, Watasili, was dead, and the current successor, Pulege, was just a child. The Ming Dynasty was fighting in front, and they ran behind.
In the past, Hami was strong because of the light of Wala.
The mother of Daowatasili and Prege, Nuwendashili, was Ye Xian's biological sister, so Wala took care of Hami everywhere. Ye Xian was already dead, so who would care about their life or death.
Therefore, Hami declined rapidly and no one could defeat it.For example, Huozhou and Liuzhou were taken away by Turpan.
Even if the Ming Dynasty does not annex Hami now, this place will soon be swallowed up by Turpan.
On October [-]th, Kou Shen regained peace.
Anding is the center of Hami Kingdom, with Qaidam Basin to the south and Dangjin Mountain to the north. It is the essence of Hami Kingdom.
Kou Shen was stationed in Anding.
Tao Jin led seven thousand cavalry southward, entered the Qaidam Basin, detoured through the desert, captured Quxian and Aduan, and pushed the territory to the northern foot of the Kunlun Mountains.
These places are all cities in the desert, not rich, and receive little resistance.
As for Shenying, on October 24th, he recaptured Hami, and on October [-]th, he controlled all the cities at the southern foot of Balsqua Mountain.
Hami was destroyed and the Ming Dynasty swallowed it up.
Nu Wenta Shili fled to Turpan with her tribe, and her son Bulege presented a surrender letter and asked Hami to annex the Ming Dynasty as a formality.
It only took Chen You 24 days to destroy the country of Hami.
Chen You arrived in Hami on October [-]th, and at the same time moved his troops westward to invade Turpan.
The king of Turpan, Mansuer, was a powerful figure.
During this period, Hami was not Islamicized, so Islam did not spread to the northwest. Chen You recovered Hami in advance, causing Islam to still be preached in Turpan.
After he learned that the Ming Dynasty soldiers had entered Hami, he actually led his army here, hoping to enter Hami and get a share of the pie.
He intercepted Nu Wen Da Shi Li on the road and captured the remnants of his troops.
As a result, the Ming army was too fast.
They also used the Mongolian style of play and didn't care about the life and death of the Hami people at all.
Chen You, an old man in his seventies, actually rode a BMW as fast as a young man and as fast as the wind. As soon as he left Hami, he had a fight with Mansu'er in Heifengchuan.
Mansuer has been at war with Daming, Wala, and Hami all year round, and its strength is not weak at all.
The Ming cavalry was slightly at a disadvantage, but fortunately they had the upper hand.
Mansuer abandoned more than 1000 corpses and returned to Turpan.
The losses of the Ming army were not small.
"Commander, what should we do?" Shenying couldn't stand this cowardice. The Turpan cavalry was really powerful, but the Ming army was not weak either.
"Go west!"
Chen You's face was tense. The Turpan army suffered more than 1000 casualties in the battle, and the Ming army lost 700 people and injured about [-] people.
He left the wounded behind and led the others westward.
After leaving soldiers to garrison in various cities, Chen You only had 1 men left, and he lost another 3000, leaving only 9000.
Defeat Chiting first, and then take down the enemy.
Arrive at Flame Mountain!
"Great Khan, the Ming army has conquered several of our cities. They are bullying us as Hami!" Man Su'er's general was angry.
Man Su'er was very cautious and huddled in Huozhou.
"Damn it, did Ming Jun take medicine?"
"I have always been a soft persimmon. No matter how we attacked Suzhou in the past, Suzhou just defended and did not dare to go out and fight with us!"
"What's going on? Did you take rat poison? Are you crazy?"
The generals in Turpan are all Mongols, and they are all arrogant.
Also, Ming Dynasty is too soft.
Even Hami bullied him, let alone Turpan.
At this time, Turpan was controlled by the Eastern Chagatai Khanate. Mansu'er was not a simple figure. Not only was he a distinguished person, but he was also a first-class person in military and political affairs.
It is unwise for Chen You to attack Turpan at this time.
The Ming Dynasty's understanding of Turpan was also wrong. In the past, the Ming Dynasty thought that Turpan had split from the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, but this was not the case.
So Chen You hit a snag.
"It doesn't matter. The Ming Dynasty is known as the army of kings, so it doesn't matter if they capture the city." Mansu'er didn't care.
Nu Wen and Ta Shili were forced to serve these barbarians by pouring them koumiss.
This is what the defeated must experience.
What was most difficult for her to accept was that Mansuer's son Shahan actually signaled her to come to his tent to serve him at night.
"The King's Army?"
Nuwen sneered: "Have you ever seen the king's master drive my Hami people to attack the city?"
"The King's Division? Those cities that resisted the Ming army were massacred!"
"The master who returns the king, these are a group of robbers!"
These words aroused Mansu'er's surprise: "Isn't this the way we Mongolians fight? Is it a Mongolian general who is leading the army?"
"No, he's an old man. It's said that his ancestors were from the Western Regions." Nuwen really hoped that Turpan would fight with the Ming army, and she would benefit from it.
"What a fart, you Hami are as weak as bitches. It's normal for you to be bullied by anyone. If they come to Turpan, don't even think about going back!" the Turpan general sneered.
Nu Wen snorted coldly: "If you don't believe me, go and see what happened to the city that was captured by the Ming army?"
The Turpan generals are still arguing.
Mansu'er waved his hand and sent out his horse to investigate. (The record on the encyclopedia is wrong)
Mansu'er also had a prominent identity. His father, Sutan Ahema, was the Great Khan of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate. He was only enfeoffed in Turpan.
In the Ming Dynasty, there were many transliterated names for the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, such as Bie Shibali and Yilibali, which all refer to the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.
The Mongols did not write history yet, so the transliterations of their names were similar, and the rate of duplication of names was extremely high, resulting in confusing places in the records.
In this era, Sutan Ahema succeeded to the throne of Khan, and his authority had declined, and the rule of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate was already shaky.
The main reason is that his father destroyed the Khanate.
His father, Heimasutan, inherited the lush pastures to his son and drove the others to barren areas, establishing a family politics.
Therefore, after the death of Ma Heima Sutan, Sutan Ah Heima was not the eldest son to succeed to the throne, so he was jointly opposed by his relatives.
But he used a large army to put down the rebellion.
The military of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate was severely weakened.
The sons were divided into various places, and the most capable Mansuer was granted a title in Turpan.
Mansuer quickly annexed the essence of Turpan, and then annexed Huozhou, Liuzhou and other places in Hami, making Turpan strong and powerful.
The Eastern Chagatai Khanate was basically divided into three parts.
The first is Yilibaoli headquarters, starting from Beita Mountain in the east, reaching Tashkent in the west, bounded by the Emin River to Lake Balkhash in the north, and the Baotian Mountains in the south;
The second is the territory of the Dugrat tribe, including around the Tarim Basin, the Pamir Plateau and the Fergan region to the west;
The third is the Uighur land, namely the Turpan Basin.
Aheima is stationed in the headquarters and is also in charge.
His most promising eldest son, Mansuer, was stationed in Turpan.
Another of his accomplished sons, Sutan Sayid, was stationed in Dugrat.
Said would establish the Yarkand Khanate, a founding monarch.
The Eastern Chagatai Khanate is already crumbling, and the emerging Yarkand Khanate is rising.
The arrival of the three heroes at the imperial court was the last glory of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.
In the evening, I came back from the expedition and reported the situation in the two cities.
The Ming army actually carried out massacres in the two cities of Chiting and Bican. Now the Ming army is near Huozhou, collecting tribesmen and trying to capture the city of Huozhou.
Mansu'er and a group of generals widened their eyes: "Is this the Ming Dynasty?"
He and the Ming Dynasty have been at war with each other all year round, and they trade with each other every year. I have never seen the Ming Dynasty's style of play. This is the Mongolian style of play.
"What did I say?"
"The Ming people are not trying to occupy Turpan at all, but are trying to kill our tribe!"
"It just weakens our strength!"
Nu Wen said excitedly: "They did all kinds of evil in Hami. Any city that encountered resistance was massacred."
"The Ming Dynasty has changed and turned into a beast!"
Mansu'er actually felt his hands and feet were getting cold: "Send people to send more troops back to Turpan!"
The Mongols have long since lost their courage.
Especially in this place in the Western Regions, there is no local strong soldiers, and there are no strong soldiers to supplement them. The Mongols are domineering here, and if they really encounter strong soldiers, they will cry and call them grandpa.
The most frightening thing is that the Ming army used the Ming Dynasty's tactics not to occupy the city, but simply to kill.
This is terrifying.
They have to be the masters of this land, and their people were massacred. If they don't give a satisfactory explanation, their already weak rule will collapse in an instant.
The bad political consequences of this incident were unbearable for Mansuer.
The news just got out.
The Ming army arrived at Huozhou City, and Chen You sent an order to attack the city.
The dark crowd of herdsmen, both men and women, were driven toward the city wall by the Ming army with firecrackers.
During the Genghis Khan period, these herdsmen were all ten warriors, but now they were driven like pigs by the Ming army to attack the city.
The construction style of the cities in the Western Regions is different from that of the Ming Dynasty.
Especially the Mongols, they don't want to live in the city, and they are not as good at guarding as the Han people. They like the sky and the ground to be their beds, and they are most comfortable sleeping in the open air.
Therefore, after the Ming army attacked the city, they quickly became desperate. The city wall could not withstand the Ming army at all.
"Let's go out to fight in the city, my lord!"
"Fight ass!"
Man Su'er was very annoyed: "If we leave the city, the Ming army will flee. This is the way of fighting of our ancestors. Have you forgotten?"
If the Ming army came to grab the land, they would not worry.
The key point is that the Ming army is either grabbing land or gold and silver, or they are killing people and running away after killing them.
You invade Hami, okay, Hami is completely empty. Let us give it to you and we will return to the Ming Dynasty.
It would be better for you to attack Suzhou. I'll wait for you to wait. Firearms to defend the city are enough for you to drink a pot.
This is the Mongolian rogue style of play.
Mansu'er is full of bitterness, and the only thing that can defeat magic is magic.
"Your Majesty, the city is broken!"
Mansu'er had to lead his army out of the city.
However, the city wall was broken, and the Ming army did not attack the city. Instead, they set up a defensive formation and waited for the Turpan army to come.
"Shameless! Shameless especially!"
Man Su'er was angered by this shameless attack.
Obviously his troops in Turpan were stronger and he had the home field advantage, but the Ming army had the upper hand everywhere.
"The entire army is guarding the city and is not allowed to leave the city!" This was Man Su'er's most frustrating battle.
However, Chen You ordered that the herdsmen should be fired upon.
clap clap clap!
There were gunshots and fire.
Each herdsman fell in a pool of blood, and the Ming army slaughtered them wantonly.
The Turpan army in the city watched, and they all gnashed their teeth in anger.
"Your Majesty, send troops!" The Turpan army generals shared the same hatred.
"To shut up!"
Man Su'er shouted loudly: "The whole army is guarding. As long as the Ming army returns, we will send troops!"
Chen You saw that Mansu'er was very powerful, and sighed: "I'm afraid the plan to annex Turpan will be shelved."
A famous general is one who chooses to contain his anger when things are not good for him.
Shenying rolled her eyes at him, you took less than a month to recapture Hami and penetrated into Turpan. You have already achieved great success. Are you still not satisfied?
"Let the cooking soldiers bury the pot and cook, and then leave after eating." Chen You didn't care.
He has confidence in his cavalry. Even if he comes to chase him at full speed, he has the confidence to escape from the battlefield. This is the advantage of cavalry.
Under the watchful eyes of the Turpan army, the Ming army feasted.
Half to eat, half to help defend.
Then change shifts for dinner.
The Turpan army was stunned and did not dare to leave the city, and just watched the Ming army eat.
After daybreak, Chen You led his army back and waited while walking, waiting for Mansu'er to put it into his pocket.
However, Mansuer was cautious and would rather suffer a big loss than fall into a trap.
Watching the Ming army Shi Shiran leave, the Turpan generals were dissatisfied with Man Su'er.
however.
Just after dinner, bad news came. Liuzhou was burned down by the Ming army!
"Where did the Ming army come from?" Mansu'er asked anxiously.
But Tan Ma didn’t know much.
Mansu'er was deeply frightened. He only had more than 1 soldiers in his hands. Chen You had [-] soldiers. How many Ming troops were there who burned Liuzhou?
"Send the order, return to Turpan!"
He didn't dare to stay in Huozhou anymore.
After he left the city, Chen You rushed into Huozhou, slaughtered him for a day and night, and set fire to the city.
Mansuer did not hesitate, and after entering Turpan City, he stayed behind closed doors.
Outside the city, Chen You and Kou Shen gathered.
Looking at the majestic city of Turpan, the two of them cried out.
"It is impossible to conquer this city with our help." Chen You wanted to conquer Turpan in one battle and annex Turpan, and this battle would have done all the work.
Kou Shen said with a smile: "We will not attack Turpan when we besiege it. Instead, we will send troops to plunder the surrounding cities."
"Send Shenying!"
Immediately, Shenying led three thousand cavalry southward, targeting Tuosun. As a result, the gate of Tuosun City was tightly closed, and Shenying's soldiers could not penetrate at all.
He simply stopped attacking the city and instead strangled the herdsmen.
There are murderous games all over the mountains and plains.
Outside Turpan, Chen You kept dividing his troops and wandering around.
Mansu'er found that Chen You had fewer and fewer soldiers, so he suddenly opened the city and fought with Chen You in the field.
The Ming army hiding in the wild took advantage of the situation to seize the door.
Fortunately, Man Su'er was cautious and had made arrangements in advance. He withdrew his troops early, pushed back the Ming army and guarded the city gate.
Man Su'er didn't dare to send any more troops.
The Ming army unscrupulously divided its troops and went out to capture them.
The cattle and sheep all over the mountains and plains are all wealth.
Nearly 2 people dispersed and 1 were captured everywhere, escorted to Dingkou, and forced them to attack the Turpan city.
Mansuer smashed a lot of porcelain in the tent.
"Is this the Ming army? This is how the Mongols fight! They are more Mongolian than us!"
Mansuer was so angry that he jumped on his feet: "Is this a civilized teacher? Is this the way of fighting in the Kingdom of Heaven?"
"This is me being a scoundrel!"
"We are all good men, why can't we fight to the death on the battlefield!"
In the past, the Mongols had no cities, so they used this method to conquer four khanates and an extremely vast territory.
Now it's the Mongols defending the city.
The Ming army had no cities and relied entirely on capture to maintain logistics.
Only then did they realize how disgusting their ancestors were back then.
Retribution will be passed on to future generations.
The morale of the Ming army was also unstable.
The generals all said they wanted to eat vegetables.
Every time I eat meat, I almost vomit.
"You are not satisfied with meat? You are eating it with an open belly. How much can you eat? If you have eaten enough mutton, eat beef!"
Chen You was angry: "Where can I go to prepare vegetables for you? I still want to eat vegetables, who can I complain to?"
"Sir, I haven't pooped for a week even though I'm here. I can't poop out. Eating meat makes me smell bad and makes me feel uncomfortable all over." The guard smiled bitterly.
Chen You also didn’t go to the toilet for several days.
My vegetable-eating stomach cannot bear to eat meat every meal.
"What vegetables do the locals eat?" Chen You asked the prisoners to be brought in for interrogation.
I soon learned that they eat a kind of onion.
"Go get some and give it to the soldiers to try." Chen You also wants to eat vegetables. If he doesn't eat vegetables, he will soon die.
Soon, a purple onion was delivered to Chen You.
Chen You frowned: "What about this kind of onion? Ming Dynasty also has it. It's spicy and bitter. How do you eat it?"
"Sir, they are called Piyazi locally. When they eat meat, they eat it." The military officer in charge of cooking said with a wry smile.
I haven't eaten vegetables since I sent troops from Suzhou.
Everyone's stomachs were grumbling.
As long as it’s a vegetable, if it’s bitter, just be bitter and eat it as you like.
"It is grown in Shaanxi, but no one eats it."
"It is said that the seeds were brought back by Zhang Qian when he was on his mission to the Western Regions. No one in the Ming Dynasty liked to eat them, and no one has grown them in recent years."
Chen You is very knowledgeable: "But Daming's is very spicy and bitter. It's very spicy and not delicious at all. Try this?"
Onions are native to Central and West Asia. Zhang Qian brought the seeds back when he was on a mission to the Western Regions.
But not the modern onion!
Modern onions were developed over many years through repeated crossbreeding.
In the evening, the guards brought a meal, which was roasted leg of lamb. It had no ingredients and was only soaked in salt water.
It tasted pretty good when I first ate it. I can’t resist eating it every day.
Chen You feels like vomiting just looking at it now.
There is also a plate of sliced onions.
Chen You picked up a piece with chopsticks, put it in his mouth, and ate a piece of onion. The juice of the onion neutralized the smell of the meat and stimulated the aroma of the meat.
Chen You's eyes lit up: "This tastes different from Daming's."
"Collect more and give them to the soldiers."
Chen You's barbecue meal tasted good, at least it had some flavor.
Piyazi barbecue.
Everyone in the army was also full of praise for this onion.
Chen You asked people to collect onions on a large scale to use as military rations, and planned to take them back for planting.
The map will be uploaded immediately. The maps of Hami and Yili were uploaded earlier. I will upload them again, starting with all the maps of Gansu.
The new map of Guangxi has also been uploaded earlier. You can check it out.
Mansu'er's timeline is advanced by ten years, because if the Eastern Chagatai Khanate were not written in this way, a lot of interest would be missing. Ahema, Mansu'er, and Sayid are all outstanding figures.
Eastern Chagatai Khanate, Golden Horde Khanate, Yarkand Khanate, these information are too difficult to check, the encyclopedias are all wrong, and the encyclopedias are all written in nonsense.
The author applied for a career editor again, let's see what weird things happen this time.
I participated in the Wishing Festival, but the backend port has not been opened yet, so I will add more updates and reward more until the end of the month.
(End of this chapter)
Fang Ying bowed three times and kowtowed nine times to the secret decree.
There are three secret orders in total.
July, August and September, one letter per month.
The most important one is to take over the cities north of Hanoi and take actual control of these territories before the rainy season next year.
And set fire to the mountains, smooth the roads, accommodate immigrants as soon as possible, build forts, and build defenses.
"Mr. Bian, please transfer to Hongji and tell Xia Xun to gather the Annan refugees, build a city, and repair roads. There is no need to rush to annex the territory. The foundation stone must be laid first."
Fang Ying was determined to achieve great success in regaining Annan.
"I would like to ask Mr. Xia Xunxia again, how much food that is not moldy does he still have in his hand? Please transport it northward urgently and send it to the center together!"
Fang Ying did not dare to neglect the matter of transporting food.
But after this rainy season, the soldiers and people ate with open stomachs, and there was not much left.
"I obey the Governor's orders!"
After staying in Tangzhou for a few days, Bian Yong went east to Hongji.
Fang Ying began to organize his army and prepared to immigrate to Wu, Anhui and Huai provinces.
After a rainy season, all the wolf soldiers in Guangxi have cubs, and those Annan ladies are all pregnant.
Such people cannot immigrate and must stay locally to avoid chaos.
There are also some who are unwilling to leave and cannot be forced to leave.
Fang Ying issued an order to mobilize the soldiers stationed in various cities. It was found that about two-thirds of the soldiers and their wives were pregnant.
There are more than 70 Guangxi wolf soldiers who came to Annan for food!
Nearly 30 daughters-in-law have stomach problems, and there will be an additional 30 births in the coming year!
This is a huge test for northern Annan. The land in Annan cannot support so many people, and Guangxi cannot support so many people either!
Fang Ying encountered troubles with happiness.
After a month of rainy season, the Wolf soldiers have become very proficient in Chinese. They can speak a hundred Chinese characters, and some can even write their own names.
Nonsense, if Fang Ying fails to meet Fang Ying's requirements, Fang Ying will separate them from each other in minutes.
Even their Annan daughter-in-law can speak a hundred words of Chinese.
It's amazing. I can already speak [-] words. Although I can barely communicate in Chinese, I can understand a lot.
Fang Ying once again ordered that before the spring of next year, the entire army would be divided into areas. Soldiers who could speak [-] Chinese characters would be allocated an extra hectare of land. Every [-] more Chinese characters that could be spoken would be allocated an extra hectare of land. Women and children were included.
In order to encourage local soldiers to become Chinese, Fang Ying used any method.
As for the food, he did not collect it all and transport it to the capital.
Instead, as a reward, the soldiers were given wedding gifts, including five kilograms of rice each, and some were reserved for emergency use. The rest were collected and transported to the Ming Dynasty.
There were originally [-] grain ships, but in November, only [-] grain ships were left to go to sea and sent to Guangxi.
Accompanying the ship were a group of warships, [-] boatmen, and their concubines.
The Ming Dynasty treated the boatmen favorably and gave them Annan wives, and forced them to speak Chinese. Like the soldiers, if they could not speak Chinese after the deadline, their wives would be confiscated.
In mid-November, [-] sea-going ships set sail from Hongji Port. Xia Xun personally escorted them and transported them to Guangxi.
The sailors trained by Xia Xun were beginning to take shape and he was confident in escorting the grain ships back to China.
Bian Yong finally arrived in Hanoi.
After the rainy season in Hanoi, the political situation seems turbulent.
Bian Yong met his father Bian Yong and sent a message to his father.
"After passing on the imperial edict, go back quickly. This is not a place for you to mess around." Bian Yong said his father's airs.
Bian Yong kowtows respectfully to show his courtesy.
"Father, everything is well at home. Your Majesty, please don't worry about the family. Although my son is on the road, he still studies every day and does not dare to waste time."
Bian Yongcai nodded slightly: "It is your good fortune that you can become Mr. Nian's disciple. You should respect your teacher and learn how to be a human being. Don't disgrace the Bian family's family tradition!"
"My son will obey his father's teachings." Bian Yong kowtowed respectfully.
Bian Yongcai nodded slightly and asked him to get up: "The situation in Hanoi is in danger. I will write all the reports to my father in a secret letter. You can just take them back to the capital. We will set out tomorrow and leave immediately."
Bian Yong had never seen his father look so anxious.
"Ugh!"
Bian Yong sighed, not treating his son as a child, and revealed something to him:
"King Annan killed the powerful minister Ruan Chi, and the Ruan family made a mad counterattack."
"The descendants have been completely killed, and even the eldest son of the king died unexpectedly."
"This Hanoi is like a raging fire cooking oil. As long as there is a spark, it will explode."
But Bian Yong frowned and asked: "What does it have to do with me, Daming?"
Bian Yong was slightly startled. His son has really grown up through this journey.
"Governor Fang and Mr. Xia have occupied the northeastern part of Annan. Hanoi has long known about it. The ambition of the Ming Dynasty has aroused the hatred of everyone in Annan. Being an envoy to my father is like sitting on pins and needles."
Bian Yong smiled bitterly.
The situation in Annan is getting worse and worse, and Ding Lie is trying to welcome Li Kechang as emperor.
However, Li Sicheng sent his chamberlain out of the capital to deliver poison to Li Kechang. Li Kechang had already committed suicide by drinking the poison.
And Li Sicheng was already suffering from drug addiction. The addiction was very strong. There were fortune tellers who offered love potions to Li Sicheng. Li Sicheng spent the night with ten women. Three of them could not bear the whipping and died. However, Li Sicheng was still bright and in control. The intention is to go.
On the contrary, after killing Ruan Chi, he gained a group of confidants. Although he was firmly suppressed by the Political Council, Li Sicheng did not follow martial ethics and often engaged in assassinations, and several powerful officials were killed.
But this is September.
"Father, doesn't this suit Daming's wishes?" Bian Yong wondered.
"Letting Annan continue to be ruined is in line with Ming Dynasty's wishes."
Bian Yong smiled bitterly: "The problem is, this was the situation a month ago!"
"Last month, the Political Council received accurate information that Governor Fang seized the Annan city and seemed to intend to annex Annan. This has aroused the common hatred of Annan."
"In front of the Ming Dynasty, there are only two ways to attack the north of Hanoi and break up with Annan;"
"Second, return to Guangxi."
"The problem is that my father sent a letter to Governor Fang, but Governor Fang is not in Tangzhou. Instead, he has returned to Zhuque Pass and is immigrating."
"Governor Fang missed a good opportunity, and the Annan incident caused trouble again!"
Bian Yong found it very difficult.
But Bian Yong frowned: "Father, my son thinks that seizing Annan City now will solidify Ming Dynasty's ambition."
"Furthermore, along the way, my son saw corpses strewn across the fields and people dying of hunger. He was worried that a plague would break out in Annan."
"It is absolutely correct not to seize the city now."
"Father, my son has taken the liberty to request you. You may wish to submit your resignation to the Annan court. You can lead your army westward and be sent as an envoy to Siam."
"First, Your Majesty will tell you that your mission is to go to Siam to trade with the Western Barbarians."
"Secondly, the situation in Annan is so chaotic. Outsiders like us in Hanoi can actually stabilize the situation."
"Third, when Governor Fang is finished, he will definitely capture all the cities in northern Annan. The winter time in Annan is very short, so we have plenty of time to regain the lost ground."
Bian Yong looked at his son who was talking eloquently, with a look of surprise in his eyes: "Kezhen, you can really take charge of your own business."
Bian Yong was stunned and kowtowed: "It's all because of my father's good education."
"No, it's His Majesty's training and your teacher, Mr. Nian, who taught me well. After my father returns to China, I must give him a big gift to thank Mr. Nian."
Bian Yong feels that his son's strategy is feasible.
It was time for the mission to continue moving south, but they stayed in Annan, which made it difficult for Annan to do anything.
If they leave, Annan will be in civil strife. As for how Hanoi plans to treat Fang Ying, let Fang Ying have a headache. He is on an envoy to Siam.
Go south, to Siam.
The next day, Bien Yong submitted his resignation, and the mission left Hanoi south and headed west to Siam.
There was no diversion to Champa.
The Champa Kingdom is gone, leaving only a bare king. Bianyong's departure will also cause more trouble.
This was something they didn’t know before Ming Dynasty came.
The mission passed through Laos and Cambodia and headed to Siam.
At the same time, Bian Yong took all the intelligence collected by Bian Yong on the Central and South China region and sent it back to the center, returning the same way.
When arriving in Tangzhou.
The general of Tangzhou was replaced by Tao Cheng.
Tao Cheng was urgently transferred to Annan. After Tao Cheng organized his troops, he moved westward and began to attack Annan City.
Bian Yong met Fang Ying at Zhuque Pass.
Fang Ying is supervising the moving army.
Of the more than 70 Guangxi wolf soldiers, only 13 were collected, and together with their families, they were loaded onto ships and shipped to the south of the Yangtze River.
Fang Ying described the situation to the center.
The emperor personally approved that these Guangxi wolf soldiers should be scattered in northern Annan and live in peace on the spot, with plenty of fertile land. Those who were unwilling to serve as soldiers would be converted into civilians.
Because northern Annan was included in Guangxi Province, these people are still Guangxi people.
Fang Ying recruited another 15 natives from Guangdong, assembled an army of [-], and transported it to the three provinces of Jiangnan.
He ordered Taocheng to march westward and engulf northern Annan.
The 64 natives who can speak simple Chinese will become the new northern Annan people.
He also allowed cities to receive refugees from Annan and made sure to prevent epidemics.
Once signs of the epidemic were discovered, they were immediately killed, buried, and isolated. He left a large number of doctors in Annan.
At the same time, he asked the central government to dispatch officials to Annan.
No, this place is not called Annan, but southern Guangxi.
The central meaning is that it is divided by the Lujiang River, and all the way to the north of Hanoi and the north of Halong Bay are included in Guangxi.
It is divided into three prefectures, which are cut vertically by Zhuque Pass. The north is called Jinjiang Prefecture, the south is called Wu'an Prefecture, and then the southern part of Nanning Prefecture, Siming Prefecture, Longzhou, Pingxiang Prefecture, Siling Prefecture plus Annan's Guangning Prefecture. The province is divided into Fenghuang Prefecture.
Jinjiang Prefecture, Wu'an Prefecture, and Fenghuang Prefecture were merged into Guangxi.
Tao Cheng first controlled these three prefectures, and then moved westward to control the western area.
However, these places are not entirely under the direct control of Annan. There are many places where the chieftain still has the final say, especially in places close to Yunnan, which is completely controlled by the chieftain.
Xue Xuan had no time to come and see the newly incorporated land in Guangxi. He was very busy in Guangxi. He began to request the central government to transfer a large number of scholars and candidates to enter the Nansan Prefecture to educate the people.
At the same time, he also described the Xuande Dynasty's Jiaozhi rule at length, pointed out the current shortcomings, the reasons for the Xuande Dynasty's withdrawal, etc.
Sent to the center, Beijing was already cold.
Zhu Qiyu summoned the ministers to discuss.
"Your Majesty, there are many reasons for the country to withdraw from Jiaozhi. The veteran will only mention a few key points."
Yao Kui said seriously: "First of all, the political situation in the court was fierce at that time, and officials who had been demoted came to govern Jiaozhi Province. Therefore, the officials had hatred in their hearts and only regarded Jiaozhi as a money bag for corruption. They did not think about it at all. How to govern Cochin.”
At that time, the king of Han and the prince were competing for the throne, and the situation in the court was tense.
"Secondly, the people of Annan were not convinced by the incorporation into the Celestial Dynasty, and they rebelled endlessly, which resulted in the country being forced to withdraw from Annan."
"Third, as His Majesty said, we are too good to Annan. If we treat the Annan people as slaves, there will be no consequences of withdrawing from Annan."
This is the truth.
Damn, that's not colonization, it's raising a son!
"Fourth, it's still a matter of the DPRK situation. If the DPRK situation is not stable, the world will naturally be unstable. Even the provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi have not been assimilated. How can we care about Jiaozhi!"
That's right, Emperor Taizong was just demonstrating his martial arts skills.
They don’t pay much attention to Annan land at all.
This is the fundamental reason why Ming Dynasty lost Jiaozhi.
"Fifth, at that time, the Ming Dynasty's army was weak, its finances were tight, and the rebellion was suppressed for many years, resulting in the finances being unable to make ends meet."
Lack of money is also the main problem in losing Jiaozhi.
The emperor had to continuously generate money in order to defend his huge territory.
Yao Kui is right.
He spoke eloquently and said more than a dozen things.
"Yao Qing, what do you think should be done to annex Annan this time?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"The court should send a high-ranking official to supervise Cochin Province."
"From the center to the bottom, we should pay attention to Cochin Province."
"For example, during this year's Beijing inspection, you can issue a decree to officials who go to places where Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi meet to improve their political performance and increase the enthusiasm of officials."
Look, after breaking the rules of the ancestral system and breaking the tight spell imposed on the emperor by the civil servants, wouldn’t the vision of the officials be opened up?
It's not that the Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty were incompetent, but that they focused their ability on fighting with the emperor and fighting for power.
So Daming can’t do it!
"Now that the center has a lot of money, Your Majesty can lure it with money..."
Before Yao Kui finished speaking, Zhu Qiyu waved his hand: "I am not interested in spending money to support the people of other countries. My money is the money of the people of Ming Dynasty and can only be used in Ming Dynasty."
"Your Majesty, please listen to what I have to say."
Yao Kui rolled his eyes: "If the Ming Dynasty wants to rule Annan, it also needs to win the hearts of Annan..."
"Forget Annan and Annan. Annan should no longer exist. It should be called Jiaozhi instead." Zhu Qiyu said.
"Old minister obeys!"
Yao Kui continued: "What I said about luring them with wealth and goods is to lure local nobles and make them be used by the central government."
Wang Fu objected: "Master Yao, it was these gentry who were responsible for the abandonment of Annan before the Ming Dynasty! They are like insatiable gluttons who cannot be fed no matter how much I feed them."
"Can you let me finish?"
Yao Kui puffed his beard and glared, but His Majesty interrupted him. You kid can't get along with me?
"You say it, you say it." Wang Fu touched his nose and laughed dryly.
"Please allow me to finish."
Yao Kui rearranged his thoughts and spoke faster: "The rule of Annan lies in strong soldiers and money."
"Annan is difficult to treat. Like Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi, it has many mountains and lush trees."
"If you want to change this situation, you have to cut down forests or even set fire to the mountains, level the roads, and repair the roads."
"We can give benefits to the gentry, let them manage the people of Annan, go into the mountains to cut down trees, and then use them to level the land. The central government will promise them benefits."
"When they are used up, they will start to develop the slave trade and sell people to the Ming Dynasty. These gentry will be useless. Send strong soldiers to kill them all."
"If a large number of Han people move in, this Jiaozhi will completely become the Jiaozhi of the Ming Dynasty."
Doesn’t Yao Kui also understand colonial thinking?
In colonization, profit is the first priority, and land is second.
Zhu Qiyu nodded slightly: "What do you think?"
"Wei Chen thinks that it is not the Ming Dynasty that should step in to kill the donkey."
"It is better to raise a band of ruthless bandits and, when necessary, drive the ruthless bandits to kill the gentry."
"There is no need to destroy the family, just cut off their future." Geng Jiuchou wanted to cherish Ming's feathers.
After all, there are not only Annan but several countries in Central and South China.
If you do this extremely well, it will not be easy to conquer those countries in the future.
"Okay, you will discuss it as appropriate. After the discussion, you can directly issue the decree."
Zhu Qiyu stopped discussing the matter: "Fang Ying and Xue Xuan both shouted that there is a shortage of people. From where can we send a group of people there?"
"Your Majesty, in order to educate all the people, you don't need to recruit people, just show talents."
Wang Fu said: "There are many poor and talented people in the world. As long as your Majesty opens a gap, all those who are willing to serve you will bow down."
This is the experience Wang Fu absorbed from withdrawing from Annan.
First, the local gentry in Annan must not be trusted;
Secondly, Jinshi cannot be used. Jinshi have high vision but low skill, so it is not as effective as promoting talents from the bottom.
"It's okay to select from all over the world, but one person must be appointed as the supervisor."
"I would like to warn those scholars that they went to Jiaozhi to serve the country. If anyone dares to be greedy or have evil thoughts, I will put them to death!"
Zhu Qiyu said seriously: "Select an upright person from the Hanlin Academy to go to Jiaozhi to supervise these officials."
"These scholars go to Jiaozhi to serve as officials, not as officials."
"There will be no officials in the new provinces."
"All enabled as officers."
The courtiers tried to persuade him, but the emperor refused to listen.
When we lost Jiaozhi, we felt like the emperor and his ministers. It was Emperor Taizong who conquered Jiaozhi, not Emperor Xuanzong. Of course he didn't care about losing Jiaozhi.
What Zhu Qiyu wants to do must be done while he is alive!
Otherwise, when you leave, even if your son takes over, he will not listen to you, and the New Deal will inevitably come to an abrupt end.
A few days later, he was promoted to the Wenhua Hall.
Zhu Qiyu met with the scholars recruited in the capital. These scholars knelt under the Wenhua Hall, and Zhu Qiyu looked down at them.
"I've summoned you to see you, and I only want to tell you one thing!"
"Jinshi in the imperial court are like crucian carps crossing the river, but I am using you to give you a chance to leap into officialdom."
"You don't have the title of Jinshi, but if you want to gain a foothold in the court, you must show your ability. At least you must not be afraid of hardship and fatigue, so that you can have a chance to compete with Jinshi."
"When you go to Jiaozhi, be prepared to endure hardships. Those who want to enjoy themselves or be corrupt should give up this thought as soon as possible! There is no need to go, lest I chop off the dog's head!"
"I sent you to Jiaozhi to take care of Jiaozhi and guard Jiaozhi."
"I'm just telling you one thing. Once Jiaozhi is lost, I'm the only one who will ask you! When the time comes, your nine tribes will suffer, don't blame me for not reminding you!"
"do you understand?"
Those scholars were so frightened that they thought they were going to Jiaozhi to catch the autumn wind, but the emperor cursed them.
"The students will know."
"Louder!" Zhu Qiyu yelled.
The scholars loudly said they understood.
"I want to be at the center. When I see your achievements in Jiaozhi, I will clean up immediately and set off in the afternoon." After Zhu Qiyu lectured them, he sent them away.
Talent selection is taking place all over the country, and every prefecture has a quota.
Qi Shun, last year's second best in the new department, was sent to serve as the supervisor of Jiaozhi, responsible for controlling, teaching, and supervising these new officials. When officials from various places in Jiaozhi are on track, he will return to the center.
The entire province of Guangxi has a completely complete territory.
And Gansu is still missing a corner.
Gansu is incomplete without Hami.
On September [-]th, Kou Shen, who was stationed in Xining, opened Guancheng and attacked Haiyan, the first city in Hami adjacent to Gansu!
Haiyan City is located on the shore of Hubei Lake in Qinghai, south of the Qilian Mountains.
Kou Shen led another 1 cavalrymen in Gansu, for a total of [-] cavalrymen. Together with Tao Jin, they captured Haiyan in just one day.
Marched westward at starry night and captured Gangcha.
Gangcha is also a city on the northwest bank of Qinghai Lake.
Kou Shen was stationed in Gangcha, while Tao Jin personally led two thousand cavalry, went north to conquer Qilian, and occupied the southern foot of Qilian Mountain.
The two armies moved westward at the same time, and on the first day of October, they captured Lake Hala.
Hami is like a long strip, inserted between Dosdusi and Ming Dynasty. This city like a cone zone was all captured by Kou Shen.
Hami was too weak, and Kou Shen walked without encountering much resistance.
The Gansu army marched westward and sent infantry into the city to gather the Hami people and garrison the city.
The first of October.
Chen You, who was stationed in Suzhou, left Jiayuguan in the west and led his army to the west.
First capture Yumen, then capture Shazhou. On the tenth day of October, the army regained Shazhou.
Divide your forces here.
Chen You led his army to the west, while Shenying led his army to the north and captured the city in the north.
On October [-], Chen You recaptured Dunhuang.
Fighting all the way, there was not much resistance at all. Hami was used to being ravaged. Wala bullied them, Duosdusi bullied them, Ming Dynasty looked down on them, and even Turpan continued to annex their territory.
In addition, their king, Watasili, was dead, and the current successor, Pulege, was just a child. The Ming Dynasty was fighting in front, and they ran behind.
In the past, Hami was strong because of the light of Wala.
The mother of Daowatasili and Prege, Nuwendashili, was Ye Xian's biological sister, so Wala took care of Hami everywhere. Ye Xian was already dead, so who would care about their life or death.
Therefore, Hami declined rapidly and no one could defeat it.For example, Huozhou and Liuzhou were taken away by Turpan.
Even if the Ming Dynasty does not annex Hami now, this place will soon be swallowed up by Turpan.
On October [-]th, Kou Shen regained peace.
Anding is the center of Hami Kingdom, with Qaidam Basin to the south and Dangjin Mountain to the north. It is the essence of Hami Kingdom.
Kou Shen was stationed in Anding.
Tao Jin led seven thousand cavalry southward, entered the Qaidam Basin, detoured through the desert, captured Quxian and Aduan, and pushed the territory to the northern foot of the Kunlun Mountains.
These places are all cities in the desert, not rich, and receive little resistance.
As for Shenying, on October 24th, he recaptured Hami, and on October [-]th, he controlled all the cities at the southern foot of Balsqua Mountain.
Hami was destroyed and the Ming Dynasty swallowed it up.
Nu Wenta Shili fled to Turpan with her tribe, and her son Bulege presented a surrender letter and asked Hami to annex the Ming Dynasty as a formality.
It only took Chen You 24 days to destroy the country of Hami.
Chen You arrived in Hami on October [-]th, and at the same time moved his troops westward to invade Turpan.
The king of Turpan, Mansuer, was a powerful figure.
During this period, Hami was not Islamicized, so Islam did not spread to the northwest. Chen You recovered Hami in advance, causing Islam to still be preached in Turpan.
After he learned that the Ming Dynasty soldiers had entered Hami, he actually led his army here, hoping to enter Hami and get a share of the pie.
He intercepted Nu Wen Da Shi Li on the road and captured the remnants of his troops.
As a result, the Ming army was too fast.
They also used the Mongolian style of play and didn't care about the life and death of the Hami people at all.
Chen You, an old man in his seventies, actually rode a BMW as fast as a young man and as fast as the wind. As soon as he left Hami, he had a fight with Mansu'er in Heifengchuan.
Mansuer has been at war with Daming, Wala, and Hami all year round, and its strength is not weak at all.
The Ming cavalry was slightly at a disadvantage, but fortunately they had the upper hand.
Mansuer abandoned more than 1000 corpses and returned to Turpan.
The losses of the Ming army were not small.
"Commander, what should we do?" Shenying couldn't stand this cowardice. The Turpan cavalry was really powerful, but the Ming army was not weak either.
"Go west!"
Chen You's face was tense. The Turpan army suffered more than 1000 casualties in the battle, and the Ming army lost 700 people and injured about [-] people.
He left the wounded behind and led the others westward.
After leaving soldiers to garrison in various cities, Chen You only had 1 men left, and he lost another 3000, leaving only 9000.
Defeat Chiting first, and then take down the enemy.
Arrive at Flame Mountain!
"Great Khan, the Ming army has conquered several of our cities. They are bullying us as Hami!" Man Su'er's general was angry.
Man Su'er was very cautious and huddled in Huozhou.
"Damn it, did Ming Jun take medicine?"
"I have always been a soft persimmon. No matter how we attacked Suzhou in the past, Suzhou just defended and did not dare to go out and fight with us!"
"What's going on? Did you take rat poison? Are you crazy?"
The generals in Turpan are all Mongols, and they are all arrogant.
Also, Ming Dynasty is too soft.
Even Hami bullied him, let alone Turpan.
At this time, Turpan was controlled by the Eastern Chagatai Khanate. Mansu'er was not a simple figure. Not only was he a distinguished person, but he was also a first-class person in military and political affairs.
It is unwise for Chen You to attack Turpan at this time.
The Ming Dynasty's understanding of Turpan was also wrong. In the past, the Ming Dynasty thought that Turpan had split from the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, but this was not the case.
So Chen You hit a snag.
"It doesn't matter. The Ming Dynasty is known as the army of kings, so it doesn't matter if they capture the city." Mansu'er didn't care.
Nu Wen and Ta Shili were forced to serve these barbarians by pouring them koumiss.
This is what the defeated must experience.
What was most difficult for her to accept was that Mansuer's son Shahan actually signaled her to come to his tent to serve him at night.
"The King's Army?"
Nuwen sneered: "Have you ever seen the king's master drive my Hami people to attack the city?"
"The King's Division? Those cities that resisted the Ming army were massacred!"
"The master who returns the king, these are a group of robbers!"
These words aroused Mansu'er's surprise: "Isn't this the way we Mongolians fight? Is it a Mongolian general who is leading the army?"
"No, he's an old man. It's said that his ancestors were from the Western Regions." Nuwen really hoped that Turpan would fight with the Ming army, and she would benefit from it.
"What a fart, you Hami are as weak as bitches. It's normal for you to be bullied by anyone. If they come to Turpan, don't even think about going back!" the Turpan general sneered.
Nu Wen snorted coldly: "If you don't believe me, go and see what happened to the city that was captured by the Ming army?"
The Turpan generals are still arguing.
Mansu'er waved his hand and sent out his horse to investigate. (The record on the encyclopedia is wrong)
Mansu'er also had a prominent identity. His father, Sutan Ahema, was the Great Khan of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate. He was only enfeoffed in Turpan.
In the Ming Dynasty, there were many transliterated names for the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, such as Bie Shibali and Yilibali, which all refer to the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.
The Mongols did not write history yet, so the transliterations of their names were similar, and the rate of duplication of names was extremely high, resulting in confusing places in the records.
In this era, Sutan Ahema succeeded to the throne of Khan, and his authority had declined, and the rule of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate was already shaky.
The main reason is that his father destroyed the Khanate.
His father, Heimasutan, inherited the lush pastures to his son and drove the others to barren areas, establishing a family politics.
Therefore, after the death of Ma Heima Sutan, Sutan Ah Heima was not the eldest son to succeed to the throne, so he was jointly opposed by his relatives.
But he used a large army to put down the rebellion.
The military of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate was severely weakened.
The sons were divided into various places, and the most capable Mansuer was granted a title in Turpan.
Mansuer quickly annexed the essence of Turpan, and then annexed Huozhou, Liuzhou and other places in Hami, making Turpan strong and powerful.
The Eastern Chagatai Khanate was basically divided into three parts.
The first is Yilibaoli headquarters, starting from Beita Mountain in the east, reaching Tashkent in the west, bounded by the Emin River to Lake Balkhash in the north, and the Baotian Mountains in the south;
The second is the territory of the Dugrat tribe, including around the Tarim Basin, the Pamir Plateau and the Fergan region to the west;
The third is the Uighur land, namely the Turpan Basin.
Aheima is stationed in the headquarters and is also in charge.
His most promising eldest son, Mansuer, was stationed in Turpan.
Another of his accomplished sons, Sutan Sayid, was stationed in Dugrat.
Said would establish the Yarkand Khanate, a founding monarch.
The Eastern Chagatai Khanate is already crumbling, and the emerging Yarkand Khanate is rising.
The arrival of the three heroes at the imperial court was the last glory of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.
In the evening, I came back from the expedition and reported the situation in the two cities.
The Ming army actually carried out massacres in the two cities of Chiting and Bican. Now the Ming army is near Huozhou, collecting tribesmen and trying to capture the city of Huozhou.
Mansu'er and a group of generals widened their eyes: "Is this the Ming Dynasty?"
He and the Ming Dynasty have been at war with each other all year round, and they trade with each other every year. I have never seen the Ming Dynasty's style of play. This is the Mongolian style of play.
"What did I say?"
"The Ming people are not trying to occupy Turpan at all, but are trying to kill our tribe!"
"It just weakens our strength!"
Nu Wen said excitedly: "They did all kinds of evil in Hami. Any city that encountered resistance was massacred."
"The Ming Dynasty has changed and turned into a beast!"
Mansu'er actually felt his hands and feet were getting cold: "Send people to send more troops back to Turpan!"
The Mongols have long since lost their courage.
Especially in this place in the Western Regions, there is no local strong soldiers, and there are no strong soldiers to supplement them. The Mongols are domineering here, and if they really encounter strong soldiers, they will cry and call them grandpa.
The most frightening thing is that the Ming army used the Ming Dynasty's tactics not to occupy the city, but simply to kill.
This is terrifying.
They have to be the masters of this land, and their people were massacred. If they don't give a satisfactory explanation, their already weak rule will collapse in an instant.
The bad political consequences of this incident were unbearable for Mansuer.
The news just got out.
The Ming army arrived at Huozhou City, and Chen You sent an order to attack the city.
The dark crowd of herdsmen, both men and women, were driven toward the city wall by the Ming army with firecrackers.
During the Genghis Khan period, these herdsmen were all ten warriors, but now they were driven like pigs by the Ming army to attack the city.
The construction style of the cities in the Western Regions is different from that of the Ming Dynasty.
Especially the Mongols, they don't want to live in the city, and they are not as good at guarding as the Han people. They like the sky and the ground to be their beds, and they are most comfortable sleeping in the open air.
Therefore, after the Ming army attacked the city, they quickly became desperate. The city wall could not withstand the Ming army at all.
"Let's go out to fight in the city, my lord!"
"Fight ass!"
Man Su'er was very annoyed: "If we leave the city, the Ming army will flee. This is the way of fighting of our ancestors. Have you forgotten?"
If the Ming army came to grab the land, they would not worry.
The key point is that the Ming army is either grabbing land or gold and silver, or they are killing people and running away after killing them.
You invade Hami, okay, Hami is completely empty. Let us give it to you and we will return to the Ming Dynasty.
It would be better for you to attack Suzhou. I'll wait for you to wait. Firearms to defend the city are enough for you to drink a pot.
This is the Mongolian rogue style of play.
Mansu'er is full of bitterness, and the only thing that can defeat magic is magic.
"Your Majesty, the city is broken!"
Mansu'er had to lead his army out of the city.
However, the city wall was broken, and the Ming army did not attack the city. Instead, they set up a defensive formation and waited for the Turpan army to come.
"Shameless! Shameless especially!"
Man Su'er was angered by this shameless attack.
Obviously his troops in Turpan were stronger and he had the home field advantage, but the Ming army had the upper hand everywhere.
"The entire army is guarding the city and is not allowed to leave the city!" This was Man Su'er's most frustrating battle.
However, Chen You ordered that the herdsmen should be fired upon.
clap clap clap!
There were gunshots and fire.
Each herdsman fell in a pool of blood, and the Ming army slaughtered them wantonly.
The Turpan army in the city watched, and they all gnashed their teeth in anger.
"Your Majesty, send troops!" The Turpan army generals shared the same hatred.
"To shut up!"
Man Su'er shouted loudly: "The whole army is guarding. As long as the Ming army returns, we will send troops!"
Chen You saw that Mansu'er was very powerful, and sighed: "I'm afraid the plan to annex Turpan will be shelved."
A famous general is one who chooses to contain his anger when things are not good for him.
Shenying rolled her eyes at him, you took less than a month to recapture Hami and penetrated into Turpan. You have already achieved great success. Are you still not satisfied?
"Let the cooking soldiers bury the pot and cook, and then leave after eating." Chen You didn't care.
He has confidence in his cavalry. Even if he comes to chase him at full speed, he has the confidence to escape from the battlefield. This is the advantage of cavalry.
Under the watchful eyes of the Turpan army, the Ming army feasted.
Half to eat, half to help defend.
Then change shifts for dinner.
The Turpan army was stunned and did not dare to leave the city, and just watched the Ming army eat.
After daybreak, Chen You led his army back and waited while walking, waiting for Mansu'er to put it into his pocket.
However, Mansuer was cautious and would rather suffer a big loss than fall into a trap.
Watching the Ming army Shi Shiran leave, the Turpan generals were dissatisfied with Man Su'er.
however.
Just after dinner, bad news came. Liuzhou was burned down by the Ming army!
"Where did the Ming army come from?" Mansu'er asked anxiously.
But Tan Ma didn’t know much.
Mansu'er was deeply frightened. He only had more than 1 soldiers in his hands. Chen You had [-] soldiers. How many Ming troops were there who burned Liuzhou?
"Send the order, return to Turpan!"
He didn't dare to stay in Huozhou anymore.
After he left the city, Chen You rushed into Huozhou, slaughtered him for a day and night, and set fire to the city.
Mansuer did not hesitate, and after entering Turpan City, he stayed behind closed doors.
Outside the city, Chen You and Kou Shen gathered.
Looking at the majestic city of Turpan, the two of them cried out.
"It is impossible to conquer this city with our help." Chen You wanted to conquer Turpan in one battle and annex Turpan, and this battle would have done all the work.
Kou Shen said with a smile: "We will not attack Turpan when we besiege it. Instead, we will send troops to plunder the surrounding cities."
"Send Shenying!"
Immediately, Shenying led three thousand cavalry southward, targeting Tuosun. As a result, the gate of Tuosun City was tightly closed, and Shenying's soldiers could not penetrate at all.
He simply stopped attacking the city and instead strangled the herdsmen.
There are murderous games all over the mountains and plains.
Outside Turpan, Chen You kept dividing his troops and wandering around.
Mansu'er found that Chen You had fewer and fewer soldiers, so he suddenly opened the city and fought with Chen You in the field.
The Ming army hiding in the wild took advantage of the situation to seize the door.
Fortunately, Man Su'er was cautious and had made arrangements in advance. He withdrew his troops early, pushed back the Ming army and guarded the city gate.
Man Su'er didn't dare to send any more troops.
The Ming army unscrupulously divided its troops and went out to capture them.
The cattle and sheep all over the mountains and plains are all wealth.
Nearly 2 people dispersed and 1 were captured everywhere, escorted to Dingkou, and forced them to attack the Turpan city.
Mansuer smashed a lot of porcelain in the tent.
"Is this the Ming army? This is how the Mongols fight! They are more Mongolian than us!"
Mansuer was so angry that he jumped on his feet: "Is this a civilized teacher? Is this the way of fighting in the Kingdom of Heaven?"
"This is me being a scoundrel!"
"We are all good men, why can't we fight to the death on the battlefield!"
In the past, the Mongols had no cities, so they used this method to conquer four khanates and an extremely vast territory.
Now it's the Mongols defending the city.
The Ming army had no cities and relied entirely on capture to maintain logistics.
Only then did they realize how disgusting their ancestors were back then.
Retribution will be passed on to future generations.
The morale of the Ming army was also unstable.
The generals all said they wanted to eat vegetables.
Every time I eat meat, I almost vomit.
"You are not satisfied with meat? You are eating it with an open belly. How much can you eat? If you have eaten enough mutton, eat beef!"
Chen You was angry: "Where can I go to prepare vegetables for you? I still want to eat vegetables, who can I complain to?"
"Sir, I haven't pooped for a week even though I'm here. I can't poop out. Eating meat makes me smell bad and makes me feel uncomfortable all over." The guard smiled bitterly.
Chen You also didn’t go to the toilet for several days.
My vegetable-eating stomach cannot bear to eat meat every meal.
"What vegetables do the locals eat?" Chen You asked the prisoners to be brought in for interrogation.
I soon learned that they eat a kind of onion.
"Go get some and give it to the soldiers to try." Chen You also wants to eat vegetables. If he doesn't eat vegetables, he will soon die.
Soon, a purple onion was delivered to Chen You.
Chen You frowned: "What about this kind of onion? Ming Dynasty also has it. It's spicy and bitter. How do you eat it?"
"Sir, they are called Piyazi locally. When they eat meat, they eat it." The military officer in charge of cooking said with a wry smile.
I haven't eaten vegetables since I sent troops from Suzhou.
Everyone's stomachs were grumbling.
As long as it’s a vegetable, if it’s bitter, just be bitter and eat it as you like.
"It is grown in Shaanxi, but no one eats it."
"It is said that the seeds were brought back by Zhang Qian when he was on his mission to the Western Regions. No one in the Ming Dynasty liked to eat them, and no one has grown them in recent years."
Chen You is very knowledgeable: "But Daming's is very spicy and bitter. It's very spicy and not delicious at all. Try this?"
Onions are native to Central and West Asia. Zhang Qian brought the seeds back when he was on a mission to the Western Regions.
But not the modern onion!
Modern onions were developed over many years through repeated crossbreeding.
In the evening, the guards brought a meal, which was roasted leg of lamb. It had no ingredients and was only soaked in salt water.
It tasted pretty good when I first ate it. I can’t resist eating it every day.
Chen You feels like vomiting just looking at it now.
There is also a plate of sliced onions.
Chen You picked up a piece with chopsticks, put it in his mouth, and ate a piece of onion. The juice of the onion neutralized the smell of the meat and stimulated the aroma of the meat.
Chen You's eyes lit up: "This tastes different from Daming's."
"Collect more and give them to the soldiers."
Chen You's barbecue meal tasted good, at least it had some flavor.
Piyazi barbecue.
Everyone in the army was also full of praise for this onion.
Chen You asked people to collect onions on a large scale to use as military rations, and planned to take them back for planting.
The map will be uploaded immediately. The maps of Hami and Yili were uploaded earlier. I will upload them again, starting with all the maps of Gansu.
The new map of Guangxi has also been uploaded earlier. You can check it out.
Mansu'er's timeline is advanced by ten years, because if the Eastern Chagatai Khanate were not written in this way, a lot of interest would be missing. Ahema, Mansu'er, and Sayid are all outstanding figures.
Eastern Chagatai Khanate, Golden Horde Khanate, Yarkand Khanate, these information are too difficult to check, the encyclopedias are all wrong, and the encyclopedias are all written in nonsense.
The author applied for a career editor again, let's see what weird things happen this time.
I participated in the Wishing Festival, but the backend port has not been opened yet, so I will add more updates and reward more until the end of the month.
