Anti-Qing: Starting from the Reincarnation of the Ming Dynasty
Chapter 385: The Grand Duchy of Manchuria and Mongolia and the Disposal of Prisoners of War
If he can gain trust from Yongxuan, then he may be able to use Yongxuan's identity to gain a foothold in Tsarist Russia.
Even become an indispensable and important figure!
When Yongxuan heard this, the expression on his face changed obviously, and then he spoke.
"What do you mean?"
"What do you mean?"
When Yongxuan said this, his eyes were full of vigilance and caution.
Obviously, he did not trust Fan Boyong, a traitor who betrayed his country and sought glory.
Yongxuan knew what this guy Fan Boyong had done. Half of the reason why Culun fell so quickly was Fan Boyong's betrayal.
Seeing this, Fan Boyong couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but he still spoke.
"If Your Highness believes in me, I can try to persuade the Rakshasa people to support your restoration of the country in Kulun and the restoration of the Qing Dynasty."
Fan Boyong is now a two-pronged liar. His only capital is that he was once Chinese and that the Fan family was once an imperial merchant of the Qing Dynasty. He can give Yongxuan a message.
When Yongxuan heard this, the drunkenness on his face eased slightly, and he asked.
"Is this true?"
Fan Boyong nodded and said.
"It's natural. If I don't have any confidence, how can I dare to bother His Highness?"
Yongxuan took a deep breath and spoke as if she had made up her mind.
"I can trust you!"
"If Fan Boyong can really push the Rakshasa people to support my king's restoration of the country, I can promise that in the future I can appoint you as the foreman of the Qing army, making you the leader of one man and more than ten thousand people."
Yongxuan also knows that she actually has nothing now.
If you want to make a comeback, you must make good use of all the resources you can mobilize.
And now the resources that he can use are nothing more than his status as a prince of the Qing Dynasty, as well as official titles and wishes.
Since Fan Boyong wants to get an official position from him, as long as he can help him, there is no harm in giving it to him.
Anyway, for Yongxuan now, he has nothing to lose anymore.
When Fan Boyong heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he spoke.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely do my best to facilitate this matter."
"My family, Fan, has been blessed by the Qing Dynasty, and I am now as prosperous and wealthy as I am. I am willing to die for the Qing Dynasty, even if I die."
Hearing this, Yongxuan felt resentful of Fan Boyong's shamelessness, but she still spoke.
"It is our great fortune and the great fortune of the world to have such loyal and virtuous people as the Fan Qing family in the Qing Dynasty!"
"..."
The two exchanged false politeness and business bragging, and soon Fan Boyong took Yongxuan to see Bores.
Back in the conference room, Yongxuan said nothing. Fan Boyong stepped forward, leaned over Bores' ear, and spoke.
"My Lord Governor, I have persuaded Yongxuan. He is willing to cooperate with the Russian Empire in controlling the Mongolian grassland."
Bores nodded slightly when he heard this.
"That's good!"
"But there's one more thing!"
Fan Boyong said.
"Sir Governor, please speak!"
Bores glanced sideways at the decadent Yongxuan and said.
"There will be no Qing Dynasty in the future, only the Grand Duchy of Manchuria and Mongolia, which is vassal to our Tsarist Russian Empire."
"As the Grand Duke of Manchuria and Mongolia, Yongxuan must swear allegiance to Her Majesty the Queen, and he must always reside in St. Petersburg in the future."
"You can take some time every year to visit Manchuria and Mongolia to inspect his territory!"
Catherine is just a queen. How can the emperor canonize him as an emperor?
In order for Tsarist Russia to more legitimately gain control of the Mongolian grasslands in the future, Yongxuan must now surrender to Catherine.
And letting Yongxuan live in St. Petersburg for a long time, Bores naturally wanted to actually gain control of the Mongolian grassland.
Only when Yongxuan himself is not in the Mongolian grassland can Bores steal his power more smoothly.
As for whether Ekaterina will agree to this?
Porres didn't think it was a big problem.
He will use his political resources to make every effort to promote this matter.
When he thought that he might be able to kiss the queen in the future, and when he thought of the queen's plump figure and her still charming appearance, Bores felt his blood rising.
Hearing this, Fan Boyong came to Yongxuan and relayed Bores's request.
When Yongxuan heard this, he couldn't help but clenched his fists hard, feeling a sense of humiliation.
When did the Qing Dynasty become so despised by foreigners?
However, at this point, Yongxuan has no soldiers, no money, no power, and all he has is a false name. He has no capital to compete with Bores.
Although I felt humiliated, I could only grit my teeth and say it in the end.
"All right!"
"Please tell Governor Borres that I agree to the conditions."
Upon hearing this, Bores stood up from his seat, came forward and hugged Yongxuan, laughing loudly.
"Yeah!"
"Congratulations, Your Excellency, for making the most correct decision. Believe me, the great Queen will definitely help you restore the country."
When Yongxuan heard this, he could only force a smile on his face and speak.
"So good, so good!"
……
Outside Nanjing, on the official road, prison cars were connected one after another.
In the prison car, each prisoner of war was wearing shackles and shackles, with only one head exposed.
The people of Nanjing spontaneously came to the front and back of the official road to watch the excitement and pointed at these prisoners of war.
"Who are these people?"
"Why are you wearing shackles and buttocks naked?"
An honest and honest middle-aged man held his son and asked in the crowd.
On the side, an old man in a long gown heard the words and spoke.
"These? These are the uniforms captured by the imperial army when they recaptured the capital. Look at those brands. Don't they all have something written on them?"
"Good guy, after losing the capital, and even several princes were captured by the Ming Dynasty, the Tatars are completely finished now."
People on the side were talking a lot.
"Who says it's not!"
"Great, this is great. Qing Gou is finally finished, and the world will be peaceful again..."
"Hey, these Qinggu are actually naked buttocks. Fortunately, he is still a prince!"
"That's right, the prince looks no different from ordinary people!"
"Hey, that guy is so smart, and he's quite unique in his small size."
Feeling the pointing eyes and eyes of the people around them, Yongyan and Yongrong just felt like dying.
A group of people were escorted from Beijing to Nanjing, all the way there.
He was imprisoned naked in a prison van and was scrutinized by countless people along the way.
The last dignity of the Qing Dynasty was completely lost to them.
Yong Rong wanted to brush his face with his sleeves, but his hands were shackled by wooden shackles and he couldn't move at all.
Looking at the tall and solid Nanjing City in front of him, Yong Rong spoke with despair in his voice.
"I knew I would be so humiliated today, why didn't I fight and die in the first place!" Yong Yan on the side also completely fell into despair, because he knew that the Eight Banners in the capital had been liquidated by the Ming thieves.
Baqi's bones were completely broken now!
There is no hope for the restoration of the Qing Dynasty!
Just when the team escorting prisoners of war was about to enter the city, Zhu Jiazhuo also received news that the team escorting prisoners of war had arrived outside Nanjing.
Zhu Jianzhuo became excited immediately.
Now that the prisoners of war have arrived in Nanjing, it is time to start the prisoner presentation ceremony.
He couldn't help but want to report to Comrade Lao Zhu!
At the same time, Zhu Jianzhuo also received a reply from his son.
I saw my son's suggestions on the issue of establishing the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
As well as his plan to first sit in Beijing to coordinate the war in the North and oversee the development of heavy industry.
After Zhu Jianzhuo read his son's reply, he immediately ordered the members of the Ming Dynasty cabinet to be summoned to prepare for discussion.
Soon, several important figures in the Ming Dynasty cabinet arrived at Zhu Jianzhuo's study.
Zhu Jianzhuo looked around, and while ordering people to give everyone seats, he spoke.
"We are calling everyone here today. There are three main things that need to be discussed and decisions made."
After hearing this, the ministers of the Ming Dynasty's cabinet spoke one after another.
"Your Majesty, please speak. I am all ears!"
Hearing this, Zhu Jiazhuo nodded slightly, then opened his mouth and threw a big bomb.
"The first thing is about my Zen position."
"Seven years have passed since I led the troops to rebel against the liquidation. Now that the unification of the world has become a foregone conclusion, I have finally given an explanation to the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty."
"Nowadays, my health is deteriorating and I am really unable to continue to take care of state affairs. Therefore, I am planning to take my place as the crown prince and then concentrate on recuperating. What do you think, ladies and gentlemen?"
After hearing this, all the ministers of the Ming Dynasty's cabinet bowed down one after another.
"I will obey the Holy Instructions."
Regarding the matter of the succession of the throne, Zhu Jianzhuo was just talking about it and was not prepared to really ask for the opinions of his ministers.
The cabinet members of Ming Dynasty are also top-notch people, and they all understand this.
Of course, whatever Zhu Jianzhuo says will be whatever it is.
They know that they are not qualified to dictate such a major matter.
Zhu Jianzhuo nodded slightly when he heard this.
"Very good. If that's the case, then the cabinet and the Supervisor of Ceremonies should immediately prepare the ceremony and edict for the Zen throne."
When Wang Shun and Yang He heard this, they stood up and said.
"Slave/servant, please accept the order!"
Zhu Jianzhuo looked around and continued.
"The second thing is about establishing the capital."
"The prince's opinion is that the Ming Dynasty will still adopt a two-capital system in the future, with Nanjing as the main one and Beijing as the supplement."
"However, I think that before the construction of the palace in Nanjing is completed, the imperial court will first move the palace to Beijing for resettlement. What do you think?"
After hearing this, everyone said in unison again.
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Now the Minghuang City in Nanjing has been completely abolished, and all that is left in place is a ruin.
It was quite frustrating for Lao Zhu's family to live in the former Jiangning Governor's Mansion.
Moreover, the specifications of Jiangning Governor's Mansion are too petty compared to the palace. It may be feasible to live there for a while, but in the long run, the palace has to be repaired.
Otherwise, what's the point?
Therefore, Zhu Jianzhuo planned to move to Beijing and make use of the imperial palace and royal gardens in Beijing first.
This was also something he and Zhu Jing'an discussed.
Seeing everyone's agreement, Zhu Jianzhuo spoke.
"The third thing is that after discussing with the prince, I decided to build a railway line connecting the northern and southern capitals."
"Line exploration, technical reserves, worker recruitment and other tasks must all be started immediately, and we strive to start construction before the beginning of next spring."
"All ministries in the imperial court must coordinate their work and make no mistakes!"
Zhu Jianzhuo also had a certain strategic vision. Ever since the Royal Academy of Sciences of the Ming Dynasty showed him a trial run of a steam locomotive, he realized the strategic value of railways.
Since then, he and Zhu Jing'an began to discuss the construction of railways.
It was just that because all departments of the Ming Dynasty had to serve for the unification war, the construction of the railway was delayed.
Now, seeing that the war of unification was about to end, and at least all the Han territories were about to be recovered, Zhu Jianzhuo would naturally consider putting the railway construction plan on the agenda.
It is worth mentioning that Zhu Jianzhuo also planned to squeeze out the big pustule of water transportation after the railway was completed.
Of course, Zhu Jiazhuo is just thinking about it now. He knows that with his current body, he is unable to solve these problems.
It’s better to leave it to your son to worry about in the future!
When Wang Shun heard this, he spoke with a somewhat thorough expression.
"Your Majesty, the railway is easy to use, but it requires fine iron to pave the road. Is the construction cost too high?"
"Wei Chen is afraid that the imperial court's finances cannot support it!"
"Why don't we wait a few years, when the government's finances are better, and then start building?"
As the chief minister of the Ming Dynasty's cabinet and the chief steward of the Ming Dynasty, Wang Shun had a good idea of the current financial situation of the Ming Dynasty court.
In order to prevent the court from going bankrupt, he had to stand up and express his opposition.
To sum up: It’s not that the railway will not be repaired, but that it needs to be adjusted and repaired flexibly.
When Zhu Jianzhuo heard this, he just shook his head and said.
"Don't worry about the cost. The prince confiscated a large amount of Eight Banners property in Beijing and gained a lot. It is enough to build a railway connecting the north and the south. It is more than enough."
Seeing this, Wang Shun could only bow down.
"The minister obeys the order!"
……
Outside Nanjing, Xiaoling!
Under the watchful eyes of countless Nanjing people, the Ming Dynasty held a prisoner dedication ceremony inside and outside the Xiaoling Mausoleum.
Zhu Jianzhuo came to Xiaoling in person and submitted a work report to Comrade Lao Zhu.
And the large number of Qing prisoners of war and Eight Banners bannermen were the actual results of what he had done.
I think Lao Zhu should be quite satisfied with this.
After the prisoner presentation ceremony, Zhu Jianzhuo made arrangements for the whereabouts of the prisoners of war.
Some of them were arranged to go to Henan to prepare for the actual reconstruction of the breached Yellow River embankment.
Some of them were arranged to go to places such as Damuan Island and Liaodong for reclamation.
In addition to this, there is also the southwest direction.
The Ming Dynasty was preparing to expand the official roads in the southwest region in order to strengthen the court's control over the southwest region.
Although the current strategy adopted by the imperial court towards the southwest is to win over the chieftains to stabilize the situation.
But when the situation stabilizes, it will definitely be necessary to further reform the country and complete the actual control of the southwest region.
At that time, smooth roads will be the first prerequisite!
Otherwise, even if the army cannot push in, how can the southwest be pacified?
In other words, as of now, these Eight Banners prisoners of war still play a considerable role.
Many large projects require a lot of manpower investment.
For ordinary construction sites, it's okay to just recruit workers, which is nothing more than spending some money.
But in many places, the natural environment has become so bad that it requires human lives to solve it.
No, isn’t good steel used on the blade? (End of chapter)
