The room goes through the late Ming Dynasty, and the back door leads to North America at the beginni

Ye Erqiang is still very tenacious.

Although it lost more than half of its territory under the attack of Dashun's elite soldiers and relatively advanced firearms, it relied on the Islamic fanatic followers who were not afraid of death to withstand the fierce attack of the Shun army in the past two years.

Shunjun wanted to go further west, and the Tarim Basin currently occupied by Yarkant was the nearest way.

There are never only wars between countries, but also various political and commercial transactions.

Now Li Shun's main force was under the pressure of the Yi army and was eager to move further west.

If Ye Erqiang refuses to use the road, the Shun army will most likely choose to attack recklessly, and then Ye Erqiang may not be able to stop it.

Therefore, Liu Sheng was not too surprised by what Jackie Chan said about the army going west via Yarkand.

However, Liu Sheng was more curious about whether Shunjun could gain a foothold in Central Asia.

So he asked, "What is the situation west of the Yarkand Khanate now? Is there any relevant information in the intelligence transmitted by Xunfeng Guard?"

"Of course there is."

Yu Chenglong agreed first, and then took several secretaries to find relevant intelligence documents in Central Asia and sent them to Liu Sheng's case.

Liu Sheng flipped through the pages and found that Xunfengwei had done a really good job in intelligence work. In just a few years, it not only arranged spies to Central Asia, but also figured out the general situation there.

To the west of Yarkand, there is now the Bukhara Khanate (so named because of its capital city of Bukhara) whose main ethnic group is Uzbek.

Central Asia has been the site of four wars since ancient times, such as the Bukhara Khanate, with the Yarkand and Oara alliance to the east, Sasanian Persia to the southwest, the Mughals to the southeast, and the Oara alliance to the northeast.

Only the northwest prairie (Kazakh grassland) has only one nomadic tribe, which has not yet formed a country and still has some room for development.

But today, as Tsarist Russia's territorial ambitions expand, its tentacles have extended into the Kazakh grasslands. On this grassland, there are constant frictions with nomadic groups such as the Oara, and small-scale wars often break out.

If the Bukhara Khanate continued to exist, it would only be a matter of time before it was threatened by Tsarist Russia.

Geographically, it is located to the west of Congling, to the east of the Aral Sea, and to the south of the Kazakh grassland.

Although the Bukhara Khanate was founded less than 1500 years ago (founded in ), two ruling families have been replaced so far.

This is similar to China changing two dynasties.

The Astrakhan dynasty currently rules the Bukhara Khanate.

With Uzbeks as the main ethnic group and Islam as the state religion, it has been ruling for nearly 50 years.

According to Xunfengwei's intelligence, the Uzbek clans in the territory are now independent and have formed groups similar to warlords - after all, the country was originally composed of many tribes.

In addition to internal troubles, the Bukhara Khanate was also frequently invaded by Sassanid Persia and the Mughal Empire due to its decline in power.

Under such circumstances, Li Zicheng led Shunjun there, which may not be able to open up a situation.

After understanding various intelligence about Li Shun and the Central Asian region, Liu Sheng immediately said: "Inform the Military Council to urge the Fourth Division of the Standing Army, the Seventh Division of the Standing Army and other units to march to Turpan immediately after taking Gansu. In this battle, I will at least capture Hami!"

"Yes!"

Secretariat staff quickly drafted Liu Sheng's handwritten edict, and after Liu Sheng sealed it, they sent it to the Military Academy...

In the ninth year of Qianyuan, Dawei sent tens of thousands of troops, first to Lintao Prefecture, then to the Gansu Xingdu Division of Shaanxi Province in the former Ming Dynasty, and finally captured Chijin, Shazhou and Hami Guards west of Jiayuguan in the former Ming Dynasty.

As for Anding, Quxian, and Aduan among the Six Guards of Guanxi in the former Ming Dynasty, they have been submerged in the long yellow sand of the Western Regions over the past two hundred years and no longer exist.

Da'ei now does not have the abnormal ecological environment transformation ability that Liu Sheng did in his later generations, so it is naturally impossible to rebuild cities such as Anding.

After this battle, Da'ei established the province of Gansu. The province mainly includes the former Lintao Prefecture of Shaanxi, Taozhou (formerly Taozhou Wei), Gansu Xingdusi, as well as the three Guanxi cities of Chijin, Shazhou and Hami and a large area of ​​surrounding land.

Finally, there is the Jingyuan Prefecture composed of the former Jinglu Guards, Ningxia Zhongwei and Zhuang Langwei.

Looking at the map, even a small half of Qinghai Lake is included in Damei and Gansu provinces.

As for the other half of Qinghai Lake, it currently belongs to the Kashote Khanate.

The provincial government of Gansu Province is temporarily located in Xining.

It has four prefectures and four prefectures under its jurisdiction, namely: Xining Prefecture, Lintao Prefecture, Jingyuan Prefecture, Yongchang Prefecture, as well as Taozhou, Ganzhou, Suzhou and Shazhou.

In the autumn of that year, the Mongolian tribes in Monan officially surrendered to Dawei.

So Damei established the Monan Mongolian Autonomous Province.

All the Mongolian tribes in Monan are currently nomadic tribes. It is difficult for Dawei to govern various places like the mainland. Considering the complex relationship between the various tribes, Liu Sheng discussed with the important ministers of the Government Affairs Council and the Military Affairs Council before adopting Mongolian autonomy. system.

Of course, it is said to be autonomous, but in reality it is semi-autonomous.

Da'ei not only stationed troops in several important places in Monan Mongolia such as Guihua City, but also had the right to collect taxes and recruit troops from various tribes.

At the same time, the leaders of each tribe also need to be recognized by the Da'ei imperial court in order to have the right status.

As for more policies targeting the Monan Mongolian Autonomous Province, the Damei court is still exploring and testing them.

Anyway, Damei now has the power to absolutely crush Mongolia militarily. Even if there is any trouble in the governance process, it can be quickly quelled to prevent Monan Mongolia from rebelling again.

As for the jurisdiction of Monan Mongolia, it stretches from Yanhai to the west, to Yuyuerhai to the east, and to the south is bounded by the boundaries of Gansu, Shaanxi, Shaanxi, Beizhili, and Liaoxi provinces.

Because there is the Hanhai Desert to the north, and to the north of the desert is Mobei Mongolia, the entire province map looks slightly narrow and long.

The provincial government is located in Guihua City, but the state capital is not divided. Instead, flags are set up according to the established sphere of influence of each nomadic tribe.

So far, there are 22 provinces under Damei's rule.

Arranged from north to south and from west to east, they are: Monan, Liaoxi, Liaodong, Andong; Gansu, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Beizhili; Sichuan, Henan, Shandong, Huainan; Guizhou, Hunan, Hubei, Jiangxi, South Zhili, Zhejiang; Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan.

In a blink of an eye, it was the tenth year of Qianyuan.

Under Liu Sheng's deliberate indulgence, Dorgon led hundreds of thousands of Qing people, mainly Jurchens, all eastward to Ezo.

Da'ei then took advantage of the situation and took over the Xianjing Road of the former Li Dynasty's Korea, and also included the Huntong River basin in the north (Heilongjiang is the name of later generations, it was written incorrectly) into the empire's territory.

According to Liu Sheng's idea, Heishui Province was established, and the provincial government was temporarily in Hamhung.

At the same time, Da'ei's land clearing order and census order were also implemented in 23 provinces across the country.

The tenth year of Qianyuan, December 23rd.

Liu Sheng convened the ministers of the Government Affairs Council in the Wenhua Hall to summarize the implementation and implementation of the New Deal in the past five years.

After the meeting began, Liu Sheng made a brief opening statement and then looked directly at Zhang Youyu, the Minister of Household Affairs.

"Da Si Nong, let me first talk about the achievements of Da Wei Qingtian in the past five years."

"Yes."

Zhang Youyu stood up in response, took out the summary manuscript he had prepared and read from it. (End of chapter)
