Dragon Sea Empire

Abatai has made outstanding military exploits and has a high self-esteem, but because he was born of a side concubine, he has a relatively humble status among his brothers. He is often not treated fairly when rewarded for his meritorious deeds, and he is often full of complaints.

Abatai's mother, Irgen Jue Luo, became Nurhachi's seventh wife in the 14th year of Wanli (1586). The date of birth and death is not left, and there is not even a single word in the history books of the Later Jin Dynasty. Because of the low status of Abatai's mother, it affected his ranking among the brothers in the future. However, because of his age advantage, Abatai participated in the battle earlier than his younger brothers, and made contributions earlier, so Nurhachi still thinks highly of him.

At this time, he has mastered the two yellow banners and Ba Yale soldiers, the strongest of the remaining main forces of the Eight Banners, so he is the strongest among the three forces. If it were not for the cold winter in the Northeast, Abatai might have sent Huang Taiji and Jierha to the army long ago. The two sides of Lang are gone.

The severe cold in Liaodong wiped out all human beings' will to fight, and all military operations in all aspects were terminated.

Yin Feng took this opportunity to launch his own land policy in the Liaodong occupied area: confiscate all the official land in the Liaodong capital of the Ming Dynasty, and all the land of the puppet Jin Kingdom established by Jianzhou Wei Nuzhen. Afterwards, nearly one-third of the land will be allocated to all soldiers and logistics personnel of the Chinese company. The rest of the Liaodong land will be sold to rich businessmen from all over the Ming Dynasty at an auction meeting in the coming year. The ownership of the mines and forests belongs to Yin Feng It is owned by the Jinghai Prince's Mansion, and the mining rights and logging rights of these places will also be auctioned publicly.

The nearly one million refugees in Liaodong did not get any benefits, nor did they lose anything more. They already had nothing, and now some people can return to the countryside to farm with the help of land deeds. Most of the people in Liaodong were originally military households belonging to the Liaodong Capital Division. In the future, they will work for the new landlords - Zhonghua Company and Jinghai Palace, rich merchants and landlords from all over the country, and meritorious soldiers of the Chinese Army. For them, restoring a stable and life-saving life is more important than anything else.

The people of Liaodong started from the mine supervision and tax envoys in the Wanli period to make chaos in Liaodong. There were continuous civil uprisings and mutinies, and then the local barbarians and Jurchens rebelled, and then Nurhachi's Houjin Eight Banners swept across the land of Liaodong. The people of Liaodong have not lived a day in these decades. On a stable day, although they did not agree with the Chinese army at first, they only regarded them as southern barbarians. However, these "Southern barbarians" have a much better military discipline than the Ming army and the Eight Banners soldiers. More importantly, their force is strong enough to guarantee Everyone's life, these southerners brought a large number of workshops and businesses that they had never heard of, gave these Liaodong refugees the opportunity to earn money to support their families, and also allowed them to gradually accept the rule of the Chinese army. In the Jinzhouwei area, the local The common people have begun to rush to work in the Chinese Army shipyards and firearms factories.

On the night of New Year’s Eve when the snow fell heavily, most of the soldiers of the Chinese army in Liaodong were warming up in the winter camp; millions of refugees and immigrants from all over Liaodong also hid in their homes. Although life was still difficult, they could finally watch It's time to hope.

In the dense forest north of the Huifa River, the remnants of the Houjin Eight Banners had to spend the winter in the wild due to lack of clothing and food. After the Battle of Ala City, the Jurchen villages all over the country were generally short of food, unable to supply the remnants of the Eight Banners.

Not long after the Battle of Hetuala, the Yehe tribe raised their flags to rebel, and was almost wiped out by the army led by Abate. At random, Abate also looted all the food and grass in the nearby villages. The people of the Jurchen tribe left the Eight Banners first, broke up and returned home. Many Jurchen tribes fortified the walls and cleared the fields, swept away all their food, grass and property and fled northward. Erhalang and the others were helpless: the basic base of the Eight Banners had been lost, their most loyal troops were also starving, their morale had almost completely disappeared, and the weather was cooling down rapidly, forcing the forces of the three rear Golden Banners to join forces. Winter in the jungle.

In the extremely cold weather in Liaodong, the Chinese Army, pioneer groups and immigrants from all over the world hid in the wintering camps around Hetuala and Jiefan City to warm up, while the remaining tribes of the Eight Banners starved to death in groups in the ice and snow. Many villages and camps of the temporary Eight Banners were starved to death. The wounded soldiers died first, and then a large number of healthy soldiers also died. On the contrary, the women survived the severe cold and hunger.

Yin Feng and others didn't know at the moment that the special battalion had discovered Huang Taiji's body in a dense forest camp in the Songhua River Basin. At the same time, Nurhachi's body hidden in the dense forest was also reported by the Jurchen Eight Banners captives.

……

Zhang Pan bowed in front of Yin Feng, and Yin Feng sat firmly on his seat and looked at him with a smile.

Ju Yi raised his Qi, and now Yin Feng is used to being bowed and kowtowed to him. He waited for Zhang Pan to finish his salute, and then stepped forward to help him up, saying, "Why do you have to do such a great salute?"

"Your Majesty is enlightened. Allow me to lead the army with my sins and kill my enemies. Although I don't know which one killed my family, after this battle, I have no regrets."

Yin Feng asked Zhang Pan, Yan Siqi and others to sit down, and then suddenly asked: "Brother Zhang, do you want to disarm and return to the field, have you left the Chinese Army?"

Yan Siqi looked at Zhang Pan in surprise: "Old Zhang, what's going on?"

Zhang Pan lowered his head and said flatly: "Mr. Zhang has avenged his vengeance, and he has no regrets in this life. From now on, he only wishes to live in the fields by farming, studying and inheriting his family."

Yan Siqi shook his head again and again: "Brother Zhang, although you are a little soft-hearted, you dare to fight and charge, and the battlefield feels good. It is a pity to leave the Chinese Army."

Zhang Pan looked back at Yan Siqi, and smiled faintly: "Our Chinese army is already invincible in the sea, where will we attack next?"

Yan Siqi was startled, raised his eyelids, and looked at Yin Feng.

Zhang Pan's words were for Yin Feng to hear. Yin Feng nodded, not intending to hide anything, and said straightforwardly: "Now our army's wings have been formed, and the northern and southern capitals are where our soldiers are pointing. The next step , I intend to rule the world,"

This is the first time that Yin Feng revealed his ultimate goal without concealment in front of his subordinates.

Yan Siqi laughed: "Zhenquan is willing to fight all over the world for you,"

Yin Feng nodded, looked at Zhang Pan's hesitant eyes that kept avoiding his own, and said with a sneer, "Zhang Pan, are you willing to serve me? Among the Liaodong soldiers in the Chinese Army, you are the most meritorious and the most The one who can fight the most, don't you want to be in the position of Huo Qubing and Ban Dingyuan in the future history, the ultimate goal of my Chinese army is not the world of China, but the world of the whole world."

"Zhang Pan, do you know how big the world is?"

Yin Feng stood up and pointed to the world map hanging on the wall - this is the world map drawn by Matteo Ricci himself. , this map does not include Australia and Antarctica, nor does it have the detailed topography of Northeast Asia.

Zhang Pan took a geography class in a short-term training class in the military academy, and he was skeptical about the authenticity of this world map. When Matteo Ricci presented this map, most of the scholar-officials in the Ming Dynasty were skeptical. People think whether they need to go to sea to prove the authenticity of this map. It can be seen that the mainstream people of Ming Dynasty culture are completely ignorant of the spirit of scientific demonstration.

However, at this moment, Zhang Pan understood Yin Feng's subtext, and immediately stretched out his arms and said, "Zhang is only willing to expand the territory for China, whether he can be famous in history... Zhang does not have such extravagant hopes,"

After Zhang Pan left, Yan Siqi approached Yin Feng's desk, and said with a smile, "Boss owner, this disk seems to be half-hearted, and he doesn't want to attack the Zhu family's court."

Yin Feng sneered: "The general trend is the trend, he can't help but choose, don't worry about him, I plan to transfer Zheng Zhilong back, and let Zhang Pan be in charge of the strategy in the Indian Ocean, you, you took a risk in this battle of Hetuala , but finally won the battle, the next step, you are going to go south to North Korea, after solving North Korea, we will compete in the Central Plains, "

Yan Siqi stood up excitedly, and was about to salute when Yin Feng said, "Wait, before you go back to Liaodong, go to Zhejiang first."

"Zhejiang," Yan Siqi was puzzled for a moment, then immediately realized: "Go and meet that Yu Zigao."

"Yes, his new army has more than 15000 people. After Mr. Xu Guangqi returned to the capital, their military salary has not been settled, and there have been two mutinies. I think Yu Zigao is my student after all. , I don’t want him to meet with the Chinese army, you are familiar with him, go and see if it is possible to pull him over.”

……

Half of the prosperous land in the south of the Yangtze River in the Ming Dynasty was under the control of the Chinese army. The sea ban has long since disappeared. They raised funds to train a new army, planning to make a comeback one day. As time went by, the inaction and depravity of the Confucian scholar-bureaucrat class became the mainstream again; For important matters, when wars are fought in a high-profile manner, calling others traitors, this kind of social atmosphere has buried countless soldiers time and time again since the Song Dynasty.

The new army is called Yuyao Tuanlian. After the initial scale, it lost a stable source of salary. The founder of the new army, Xu Guangqi, has now become one of the cabinet ministers, but he has a high position and no real power. The surrounding ministers are all focused on fighting with the party Fighting for peace and making money, it is impossible for him to do some practical things alone. Without his prestige and ability, wealthy businessmen and scholar-bureaucrats in Jiangnan would not want to invest money in the bottomless pit of the new army.
