Ming Zhengzhi, I am Zheng Kezang

Hai Youfen had passed the emperor's addiction before he died, but his territory was too small to fight against the Chinese army, so he had no choice but to continue to hug the Zhungeer's thighs.However, the Zhungeer people are also people with insatiable desires, and the small Dasu country does not have a wealth of gold, silver and jewelry to satisfy the suzerain's gluttonous appetite.

Under such circumstances, Hai Youfen planned to convert to the Yellow Sect in a whimsical way to win the favor of Cewang Allah Butan.

The Jungar people have a long history of believing in the Yellow Sect. In the early years, Galdan Khan even studied Buddhism under the disciples of the [-]th Panchen Lama and the [-]th Dalai Lama. Up to now, the Jungar people have even controlled Lhasa. It is intended to establish a new Mongolian empire with the Yellow Sect as the core of thought and the Zhungeer people in charge of military and political power.Therefore, Hai Youfen's winking was not in vain, and soon Yilibali (Ili) sent [-] Zhungeer cavalry to support him.

With these [-] Zhungeer cavalry, Hai Youfen has lived a life of being drunk today, but what he doesn't know is that Cewang Arabtan Khan is not interested in the barren Mongolian prairie. It seems that this talented and generous Khan, rather than commanding the Eastern Mongolian tribes that are not in harmony with the people, it is better to cover the entire Central Asia to the west, and as the natural heir of the Mongolian Empire, he will rule over Kazakhs and Kyrgyzstan. The center of gravity of the Geer Empire has always been in Kazakhstan, Bukhara, and Khiva. As for Hai Youfen, it is just a pawn to contain China's rapid rise.

Since it is a chess piece, it can naturally be discarded. It is precisely because of this reason that the Huaxia court, who heard that Zhungeer soldiers stationed in Suzhou, quickly responded. [

In September of the 11th year of Wucheng, a group of envoys entered Yili City.

The arduous journey made the whole division exhausted, but this was not the time to rest, so all the envoys were dispatched together, and the Eight Immortals crossed the sea to find ways to contact the top figures of the Jungar Khanate.

After the joint efforts of several parties, the Huaxia Mission finally entered the sight of Cewang Allah Butan Khan.

Of course, in fact, the Chinese people have traveled all the way, and they have long been under the control of Cewang Allah Butan, but for this emerging eastern power, Cewang Allah Butan Khan was worried, so he deliberately snubbed the other party, but never thought that the Chinese envoy The group broke through the joints so quickly, which made his fear even more aggravated.

However, even though they were worried that China would enter Tibet from Qinghai and Sichuan to shake the rule of the Jungar Empire, the Jungar people still needed silk, tea, ironware and other materials from the Central Plains.Therefore, due to the high-level needs of the Khanate for luxury goods, Cewang Allah Butan finally nodded to meet these foreign guests with ulterior motives.

"Foreign ministers and Huaxia Tonghao envoy Lu Weijun kowtowed to His Majesty Khan." In the resplendent tent, the head of the Western Regions Division of the governor's yamen, who had not had time to shave off his beard, was respectfully saluting a generation of emperors sitting in the middle. "Foreign ministers are ordered by my lord to communicate with His Majesty. I hope that the two countries will be good-neighborly and friendly, and fight forever."

"Is that why the emperor of Central Plains sent you here to talk about that?" Ce Wang Arabtan looked at Lu Weijun coldly and said. "In that case, let's return Qinghai first."

"Is King Khan joking?" Lu Weijun retorted leisurely because he had already estimated that the other party would mention the Qinghai issue. "This dynasty does not occupy an inch of land in Qinghai. The land is under the leadership of the King of Haixi County and the generals of Huite. This dynasty is just a false name of suzerain. How can we talk about returning the word."

Cewang Allah Butan sneered when he heard this, "It's really eloquent, and it's possible that the emperor of the Central Plains still wants to continue to peek at the entire prairie with the hat of Tian Khan."

"On the contrary, we still have old enemies that have not yet been defeated, so how can we spy on the north and south of Tianshan Mountain." Lu Weijun replied calmly. "Even if the Jianlu are eliminated in the future, they will gain the support of Monan and Khalkha Mongol tribes after they unite with China, and they will be able to expand the country with strength." Cewang Allabtan Khan was talking about the entire grassland, but Lu Weijun narrowed his target to both sides of the Tianshan Mountains In fact, they insisted that the border between the two sides should be as clear as today, and the quasi-control line. The Zhungeer nobles present were furious about this, but Lu Weijun was unmoved. "Thinking about it, Your Majesty should know in his heart that if he wants to merge with the various tribes of Mongolia, he may not be able to resurrect Genghis Khan. So why not go west and expand the territory to Persia and Ottoman."

"Persia? Ottoman?" Zewang Arabtan smiled playfully. "The emperor of your country is also well-informed and memorized." Cewang Allahab paused. "That's a good statement. Instead of wasting your energy on those old-fashioned people, it's better to open up another world. Anyway, this land is vast, and there is room for my Zhungeer to ride horses. However, with a few words from your envoy It seems a bit of a joke to ask me to give up the Mongolian headquarters, or, what can your envoy rely on?"

Lu Weijun responded neither arrogantly nor humblely: "The foreign ministers rely on other than our court's military prestige, and they only know these few words."

The military power of China is just a joke to the Zhungeers who have not yet contacted, but the existence of intercommunication is questionable, so Lu Weijun explained: "There are good horses on the grassland, and there are leather goods, and they are shipped from Persia, Ottoman, and Russia. All kinds of "coloured" commodities, but the silk, tea, porcelain, glazed wares and spices from the Central Plains, how can they not be exchanged."

Lu Weijun's remarks aroused the interest of the Zhungeer nobles present. Indeed, if the Mongol Empire in the past was really an empire of Uighur merchants, then the Zhungeer people who now master Central Asian trade may not be able to re-enact the glorious scene of their ancestors.

"Commerce? Now that the trade route is cut off by the country of Su, if we want to conduct trade, do we have to remove this obstacle first?"

Facing the sneering question from Allah Butan Khan, Lu Weijun replied seriously: "The so-called Su Kingdom is just a lunatic's game before the end of his life, and it really can't be taken seriously."

This is also true. Compared with using Su to block China, it is more beneficial for the two countries to conduct business directly.

Cewang Allah Butan Khan narrowed his eyes and pondered for a while, then suddenly mentioned another matter: "I heard that your country's firearms are very sharp, can you sell a batch to my Zhungeer Ministry?"

At this time, Lu Weijun showed a smile: "I heard that your country and the Eros country are a bit dirty about the territory" [

Cewang Allah Butan Khan showed displeasure on his face: "What do you mean by your envoy's words? Could it be that we have fallen out with the Russians, and you can profit from it later!"

"His Majesty Khan's words are wrong." Lu Weijun shook his head. "In the past, Jianlu and Oros also had wars. As a result, if our dynasty takes over the former land of Jianlu in the future, we will inevitably have some disputes with the Oros people."

Seeing that Cewang Allah Butan Khan's face softened slightly, Lu Weijun hit the iron while it was hot: "There is a proverb in Taixi that the enemy's enemy is your friend, so there is something in common between our dynasty and the Jungar Khanate. We should be more allies."

Finding that Cewang Alabatan was moved, Lu Weijun said again: "Thinking about Naeros, whose country is thousands of miles away, but the wolf's ambition is to get involved in the whole Mobei. If he succeeds, you and I may have eternal peace."

At this time, the Zhungeer Empire was almost a united enemy in the southern and northern wars, but the Manchus in the east and Russia in the north gave Tsengarabutan the feeling of being on his back, so he calculated that if China was in If the east side contained the Manqing, and then fought against the Russians, his pressure would be greatly reduced.

Therefore, no matter it is based on the actual commercial interests, or the hope that China will contain its opponents in the future, the alliance between Xia and Zhun has advantages and disadvantages for the Zhungeer people. He half-and-half agreed to Huaxia's overall proposal.

In October of the 11th year of Wucheng, the "Commercial Agreement between Xia and Zhunmeng" was officially signed.The Zhungeer people gave up their support for the Great Su Emperor Hai Youfen, acquiescing to Huaxia's recovery of Suzhou, Anxi and other places, and acquiescing to Huaxia's suzerainty over Qinghai, in exchange for Huaxia selling artillery and other armaments to Zhungeer; at the same time, the two countries It was also agreed that the two sides could exchange caravans to enter each other's domestic trade, and jointly deal with the Russians in the north and the Mongolian ministries attached to the Qing court.

In the Xiajun agreement, the two sides failed to clarify the border, and the result of the comprehensive opening of trade will inevitably make Zhungeer fall into a situation of over-trade, thus laying the groundwork for future friction between the two countries.But in any case, Huaxia won precious development time and was able to calmly recover Suzhou and other places.

In April of the 12th year of Wucheng, Xia Jun sent [-] troops to attack Suzhou.Hai Youfen invited the generals of the Zhungeer garrison to discuss the defense, but unexpectedly, he was assassinated by the Zhungar army.As a result, the Haibu collapsed, and the Xia army regained Suzhou almost without bloodshed, and then sent troops outside Yumen Pass to seize Anxi, the bridgehead looking west.

In June of the 12th year of Wucheng, the Xia army sent troops to Hetao again, defeating the hastily formed coalition forces of Erut, Tumot and other ministries, forcing the ministries to defect from the Qing court and surrender to China.So far, the three northwestern provinces have been completely stabilized, coupled with the mitigation of domestic disasters in China and the initial completion of the governance of the Yellow River flooding area, the time is ripe for the Xia army to make another northern expedition.

Just as Zheng Kezang was about to go into battle again, the Japanese problem finally broke out.

In July of the 12th year of Wucheng, the sixth generation Tokugawa Shogun Jiaxuan officially announced the abolition of the "Japan-Xia Yuanlu 14-Year Commercial Treaty", banned business leases, expelled Chinese businessmen in Japan, and reiterated the "Seclusion Order" to prohibit Japanese from going abroad and going abroad of Japanese return home.

At this time, the cunning Jiaxuan announced on the one hand that he would continue to pay indemnities to China, and on the other hand ordered all parts of Japan to be fully armed, trying to dispel China's attempt to send troops to Japan again with hard and soft tactics.

But Jiaxuan never expected that Zheng Kezang, whose preparations for the Northern Expedition had been interrupted, would be furious because of this, and the second expedition to the sun was already imminent and had to be launched.
