Ming Zhengzhi, I am Zheng Kezang

614. The Prelude to the Battle of the Future

Yunyu's caution saved him. In fact, the main force of the Xia army stopped after leaving Kuanchengzi for five (Hua) Xiali, and then returned at night. Only the fourth division of the Flying Cavalry Army continued to march towards After Boduna left, if Yunyu led the troops rashly to attack, the result would be self-evident.

Xi Daping's failure to come naturally made Xi Daping lose the east corner, but when the coalition of kings in Bodune heard that Xia's army was coming to attack, they withdrew in a panic without distinguishing the truth from the fake, which made Xi Daping accept Sangyu.And a bigger harvest that he didn't expect soon came to his door--due to the escape of the allied forces of the kings and the Guoerluo people, Yun Yu led his troops and brought more than 6 people to the Songhua River on the grounds that he was alone. , thus throwing the vast area of ​​the south of the Yangtze River to Xia Jun along with more than [-] Manchu and Han people who had no time to escape.

As a result, the entire Liaodong and part of Jilin fell into the hands of the Xia army, and Zheng Kezang's goal of the first stage of the Northeast Operation had been overfulfilled.However, Xia Jun also found that his side was unable to further expand the results of the battle, so he could only hold on to the Songhua River defense line to block the work of the Liaodong immigrants who were about to be pulled away.

On May 15, the [-]th year of Wucheng, Huaxia, Zheng Kezang, who traveled south along the Grand Canal to Jinling Mansion, immediately ordered to change Liaoyang City to Xiangping City after receiving the report that Xia Jun had arrived at Songhua River, and established Liaoyang City in Liaodong. Xingshangshutai of other places, under the jurisdiction of Shenyang Mansion, Xiangping Mansion, Jinzhou Zhili Prefecture, Dandong Zhili Prefecture, Gaizhou Zhili Prefecture, Changtu Zhili Prefecture, Panhai Zhili Prefecture (Haicheng), Yitun (Tong) Zhili Prefecture, Tonghua Zhili Prefecture and other two prefectures and seven states.

On May 24, Zheng Kezang set up the Liushoufu in Changchun with Kuanchengzi as the government, the Songmo Duhufu with Boduna as the government, and the Andong Duhufu with Jilin Wula as the government. Responsible for the war in Jilin and Heilongjiang.

On the same day, the Huaxia Military Department also issued an order to replace the first division of the Tiger Wing Army with the second division of the Flying Cavalry Army, the third division of the Flying Cavalry Army, the first division of the Iron Cavalry Army, and the second division of the Hussar Army. Division, the Third Division of the Huben Army, the First Division of the Pong Japanese Army, and the Fifth Division of the Dingsheng Army to adapt to the vast terrain of the Northeast.

On May 28, Zheng Kezang took Miaotun captured by the Eighth Division of the Longxiang Army as his administrative seat, and set up the Mohe Duhu Mansion to be in charge of the war in the lower reaches of Heilongjiang and the Wusuli River Basin. Protector of the government.Immediately, adhering to Zheng Kezang's will, the Huaxia Military Department issued an order to divide the Mongolian Yicong Army into two, one under the command of the Shiwei Duhufu, the other under the command of the Songmo Duhufu, and the Andong Duhufu. Then he led fifteen regiments of the Shence Army to fight.

Three days later, Zheng Kezang, who arrived in Jiujiang, summoned Baji Nong Taiji, the envoy of Chechen Khan, who was escorted by the Daligangai Department (formerly the Chahar Department) and the Xilin Gol Department, and the same After going through untold hardships, he arrived in Eren, and was chased by the Kuching sent people who did not dare to neglect Zheng Kezang's footsteps. He traveled across half of China before being sent to the Russian Ivanovich Markaye in front of the imperial court. husband - Brodarsky.

"My humerus general has led tens of thousands of troops into the desert." As soon as they met, Zheng Kezang comforted the Chechen Khan's envoy who arrived nearly a month later than the military newspaper. "I will definitely rescue your ministry in time." Having said that, in fact, the memorial to Zheng Kezang from Kujin, the governor of Shiwei, said that he would fight steadily and build a fortress-style post all the way deep into the hinterland of Mongolia. Therefore, the Chechen Khan If the Twelve Banners do not want to be annexed by the Tuxietu Khan, they can only approach Xia Jun by themselves. "However, since Qing has come, I will take back the golden book, robes, seals, and ceremonial swords given to King Chechen Khan by the court, and tell the king of Eastern Khalkha that as long as he is loyal to our Huaxia, I will protect him." The pastures and people are safe."

Chechen Khan's envoy was overwhelmed with gratitude, and retreated again and again. At this time, the stately guards summoned loudly: "Ivan Maburo, the envoy of Russia, has an audience."

Ivanovich-Markayev-Brodarsky was quickly brought up, and when he saw Zheng Kezang sitting in front of him, he obediently bowed to the ground, got up and spoke fluently The Mongolian said: "Ivanovich Markayev Brodarsky, the envoy of the Governor of Siberia of the Russian Empire, kowtowed to His Majesty the Great Emperor of China."

"Envoys, please." Zheng Kezang asked Brodsky to stand up. Originally, as the envoy of the local governor, Zheng Kezang should not condescend to meet him in person, but because Russia sent people to visit him during this period of time. Because of the sensitivity of the contact, he was interviewed in person. "Come on, give me a seat."

Brodarsky sat down obediently, and then the interpreter of the governor's office read out the so-called credentials he brought: "Lord of the Far West, heir of the Great Qin Empire, Caesar (tsar) of all Russia; Moscow, Kiev, Vladimir Caesar and dictator of Ladimir, Novgorod; Caesar of Kazan, Caesar of Astrakhan, Caesar of Siberia, Caesar of Crimea; Lord of Pskov; Grand Duke of Smolensk; Nizhny Nov Gorod, Chernihiv, Ryazan, Polotsk, Rostov, Yaroslavl, Belozersk, Udor, Obdor, Kandia, Vitebsk , Mstislav, and all the lords and grand dukes of the northern regions, his humble servant, Konstantin Ivanovich Sergeyevsky, Governor of Siberia, sent only envoys to greet His Majesty the Emperor of Great China"

The Chinese courtiers standing around Zheng Kezang were initially confused by a series of Caesars (tsars) in the interpreter’s mouth, and then when they heard about the lords and dukes, they all showed contemptuous expressions on their faces. It’s no wonder they felt contemptuous. From the beginning of the first emperor, the highest title of a monarch was only the emperor, and only those who were chosen out of ten thousand like Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty would add weird decorations such as the Duke of the Kingdom and the Great General to themselves. Only those in the governor's office who had dealt with Europeans for a long time knew , This is the habit of Westerners. The longer the title of each king, the larger the country's area and the stronger the country's strength.

Zheng Kezang listened with a smile that was not a smile, and did not comment on the segment that was obviously modified by the governor's office. However, after the letter of credence was over, Zheng Kezang asked a very fatal question: "Please tell me clearly, Does the governor of Siberia have the right to represent Caesar in your country to make treaties, alliances, and friendship with foreign countries?"

After understanding the meaning of Zheng Kezang's words from the interpreter, Brodarsky, who was in a cold sweat, insisted: "Your Excellency the Governor of Siberia has the full power of disposal granted by the Tsar, and it is naturally the right of the Governor-General to maintain good relations with neighboring countries. one."

Zheng Kezang nodded, and continued to ask: "How big is the jurisdiction of the Governor-General of Siberia? How many villages and towns are there?"

Brodarsky exaggerated: "Your Excellency Governor of Siberia has tens of thousands of versts of land under his jurisdiction, with [-] villages and towns and a population of one million. There are tens of thousands of Cossacks who are accustomed to fighting."

The Chinese ministers present did not know the size of tens of thousands of versts, but the figures of [-] villages and towns, a million people, and tens of thousands of troops made them scoff. Brodarsky, who was secretly observing, did not know Something went wrong, so I had to bite the bullet and continue: "Your Excellency the Governor sent me to inform your country that the Russian Empire will send troops to the Almu River in the near future. I hope that we will join hands with your country to destroy the Qing Empire together."

Russia is going to send troops to Heilongjiang. This news made all the followers a little angry. In their view, this is taking food from Huaxia's mouth, so Chao Mumei, the servant of the school, stepped forward and said: "My lord, Eros wolf ambition, and Jin Yuan Similarly, the lessons learned from the two Song and Northern Kingdom alliances must be guarded against."

Zheng Kezang said to Chao Mumei with some displeasure: "I know what you said, but the envoys of foreign countries are still here, so you don't have to lose the court's face in front of the barbarians."

After Chao Mumei pleaded guilty to Zheng Kezang, she backed away. At this time, Zheng Kezang turned his head and continued to ask Brodarsky: "I heard that the war between your country and Sweden is in full swing. At this time, your country has Can you still mobilize tens of thousands of troops to the extreme east of the mainland? Are the words of the envoys empty?"

Brodarsky thought it was a European missionary who told Zheng Kezang that Russia and Sweden were engaged in the Great Northern War, so he said with a smile: "Your Majesty, although the main force of our ** team is still at war with Sweden, it is only against the Qing Empire." , as long as the governor of Siberia mobilizes troops, why should I send the army from thousands of miles away."

Zheng Kezang suddenly burst out laughing, and after laughing, he said to his subordinates: "The Swedish army is only [-], but they are powerful against several countries. Oros is just one of them, so they have been defeated and defeated repeatedly. , They actually boasted that they could wipe out the Qing captives with a single province, so it seems that as long as they can brag, the enemy country can be defeated without a fight."

The ministers also laughed. The battle of 10,000+ people was really not enough in the eyes of the Huaxia Dynasty, which had just won a decisive victory. As for the fact that the Qing army was unable to conquer the small bastion guarded by Russian wanderers with dozens of times its strength. In fact, except perhaps Zheng Kezang, who despises strategically and tactically, everyone else has turned a blind eye.

In this regard, Zheng Kezang did not intend to immediately pour cold water on his ministers, but only confessed to Brodarsky: "As for your country's unauthorized dispatch of troops to Heilongjiang, this dynasty clearly opposes it, and our dynasty will not recognize your country from the Qing Dynasty. Any land seized by the court, because these lands are an inalienable part of China”

Brodarsky, who found nothing, was taken down, and Zheng Kezang ordered: "Send him back to Mongolia immediately, and then deport him. Don't let him observe the reality of the dynasty along the way."

The Chinese ministers who had watched a funny show left the palace one after another. On the way, some people frowned and discussed with their close ones: "My lords, the Holy Majesty just said that he did not recognize the territory of the Oros people in the extreme north. , but are you preparing to regain the homeland of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and send troops far away?"

Someone on the side replied: "Isn't it good to regain the homeland of the Han and Tang Dynasties and reappear the glory of the Han and Tang Dynasties? Besides, today is the leader of the pioneers, not a conservative generation. It is normal to have such ambitions."

Someone in Ji Si's ranks responded: "The world has just been at peace, and the court should cultivate and thrive, but the Holy One insists on using troops. I'm afraid it's not a blessing for the court and the people of the world."

Zheng Kezang doesn't know what the courtiers think. In fact, he is the only one who understands the urgency of the situation. Once Russia grows in the north, China, which has a 300-year cycle, will be unlucky in the end.In order to prevent future generations from repeating the suffering of different time and space, even if he is called militaristic, he still has to go on.

"Accept Yang Bokang." The determined Zheng Kezang ordered, and Yang Bokang, who was in charge of the Privy Council after handing over the front-line military power, appeared to accompany him. "Let's make a plan for the Privy Council. Once the Oros people send troops to Heilongjiang, how should we deal with it? If they attack in Khalkha, how should we support it." Speaking of this, Zheng Kezang added. "At this time, you should immediately notify Gu and Xi Erqing, so that they can prepare for it."
