Ten Dragons Take the Inheritance

Chapter 341

In September of the 44th year of Kangxi, Grandpa Kangxi made his sixth southern tour. At the end of September, the case of Dongling was discovered. At the beginning of October, Prince Yin Zuo, who was ordered to handle the case, came to the office, saying that the case had been solved and the collapse of the underground palace was caused by the remnants of the White Lotus Sect. Entering Dongling, he secretly conspired with Wu Liusheng, the guerrilla general of the Dongling garrison battalion. He had committed suicide in fear of crime, and many other remnants of the Bailian sect sneaked into the capital to plot wrongdoing. Dozens of documents and archives of Bailian religion are evidence.The emperor was furious, and sent an edict to copy Wu Liusheng's family to serve as an example; Fu Lingfu, the guard of Dongling, was removed from the post of general, and he was assigned to serve in the Ussuri Tai army; Appreciate Ma Qi's yellow mandarin jacket.

In mid-October of the 44th year of Kangxi, the second round of the selection of 5000 troops from the Eight Banners' Zhengbai and Zhenglan Banners to be stationed in Dongying began. After going through the Eight Banners of the capital, all the non-enlisted Zhengbai and Zhenglan banners heard that the selection started, and immediately jumped up and down, moving around, and broke their heads to join the 5000 people, even Yinzuo's ineffective brother-in-law Let Lan Yueer blow the pillow wind in Yinzuo's ear for a while, as for the number of people rushing to Yinzuo's mansion to recommend themselves or let the eight banners dignitaries come to connect their joints, Yinzuo can't be quiet for a moment. In the end, they had no choice but to order an open martial arts competition, and determine the candidates based on the results of the autumn hunting competition. After nearly half a month of hard work, they finally sent all the Eight Banners disciples out of Beijing to Qingdao, Shandong to wait for the arrival of the monsoon.At the beginning of November in the 44th year of Kangxi, the Shandong Navy Fleet, loaded with Eight Banners soldiers and various strategic materials, set sail for Dongying. Together with them, hundreds of merchant ships of all sizes rushed to Dongying after hearing the news. and go.

On New Year's Eve in December of the 44th year of Kangxi, Mr. Kangxi celebrated the New Year at Cao's house in Jiangning Weaving Mansion, Nanjing. This Cao's house was the home of Cao Xueqin, a later generation of literary tycoon, but Cao Xueqin was not born at this time.In the middle of March in the 45th year of Kangxi, the old man Kangxi, who had been traveling for more than half a year, returned to Beijing. All the officials went to the outskirts of the city to welcome him. The career of a minister, everything seemed extremely ordinary, but the old man Kangxi did not return to the palace after returning to Beijing, but always lived in the Changchun Garden outside the city, and the interval between court visits was officially changed to once every ten days, sometimes half a day. It is not uncommon to have no morning court for a month. The old man is tired of governing, and he only suffers from the ministers in the study room headed by Yin Zuo, who are dizzy with their daily work.

Time is running, more than half a year has passed in a hurry, and in the blink of an eye, it is July 45 of Kangxi, and a warning message came from western Xinjiang-Cewang Allah Butan sent his younger brother Cering Dunduobu to lead an army of 45 to start from Hotan and launch a campaign Raiders of Tibet defeated Lhazang Khan in one fell swoop. In June of the 4000th year of Kangxi, the expeditionary army captured Lhasa, killed Lhasa Khan, established rule in the whole of Tibet, and imprisoned the sixth Dalai Lama. Tibet is already corrupt, and things have come to an end It's time to clear the troops.When the news spread to Beijing, Mr. Kangxi was furious and sent an order to send out troops. Xi'an General Chuan Erdan led the Xi'an Eight Banners Garrison and Xi'an Green Battalion with a total of 2000 troops. The troops and horses of the headquarters of the nine admirals moved to Xi'an to guard the gate of the Central Plains. The remaining nine admirals were taken over by Erut, and the lack of troops was made up by the Fengtai Daying and Xishan Jianrui battalions; People and horses left the Altai Mountains and marched westward, and the two armies jointly attacked Tibet.

It is still clear which god Cewang Arabutan is Yinzuo. This guy is Galdan's nephew. Since Galdan's defeat, this person has occupied the entire Galdan Basin. The Geer Ministry once again gained confidence. In the 43rd year of Kangxi, Cewang Arabtan sent his younger brother Ceringdun Dobu to conquer the Kazakh Khanate, and split Kazakhs into Dayuzzi, Zhongyuzi and Xiaoyuzi The three Khanates all surrendered to Junggar. So far, the Jungar tribe has risen again. The ambitious Cewang Allah Butan provoked several small-scale disputes with the Qing Dynasty, but they were all defeated. Ju Yinzuo also has some vague impressions, and vaguely remembers that it happened 50 years after Kangxi, but now only 45 years after Kangxi, this war broke out, which made Yinzuo feel a little shuddering-history is all messed up!
In Yinzuo's impression, the Qing Dynasty's dispatch of troops this time was a disastrous end. The two armies dispatched totaled 6 people and were wiped out. I vaguely remember that it was the result of being ambushed, but Yinzuo didn't know exactly what happened. It is too clear that since Kangxi's second western expedition in 36 years, except for the navy, Mr. Kangxi has never allowed Yinzuo to intervene in military affairs, and this time he also did not let Yinzuo intervene in this matter.Uneasy, Yinzuo spent dozens of days in his spare time looking at the map in his study, researching and judging the possible ambush locations of Galdan's army. Fortunately, the old fourteen was in charge of the military department, and the news from the frontline was still timely. I learned that, but I didn't see any big problems for a while-the two armies of the Qing Dynasty marched steadily, crossed the Urumu River in turn, joined forces in Gemu'er, and entered the Qing Dynasty in the 45th year of Kangxi. At the beginning of the month, there was a battle with the Galdan coalition forces. After defeating the enemy, the whole army launched a pursuit.On October 45, the 23th year of Kangxi, the battle report came from the front. The Qing army had caught up with the retreating Galdan coalition army, crossed the Kara Wusu River, and was engaged in a decisive battle with the enemy.

It's over!Yin Zuo looked at the map and knew that the frontline army was about to die. The place where the Qing army crossed the river was a bend, like a pocket. It's a turtle in a urn, there is no vitality at all.

[-] lives, the [-] army is gone!Yinzuo felt very distressed. Although he already knew that the defeat was settled, Yinzuo had nothing to do at this moment. Don't say that Mr. Kangxi would not let Yinzuo intervene in the military. Even if the nearest reinforcements had to go all night without eating or sleeping, it would take at least half a month to get to the battlefield, and it would have to be all cavalry, so defeat was inevitable.

What does it mean to cry without tears?Just look at Yinzuo's expression now, you can understand that Yinzuo's brother-in-law Wang Jiye also participated in this battle this time, even though Yinzuo had a private message to him before the expedition, asking him to say he was sick and not to participate in the expedition, what can I do Wang Jiye was eager to make contributions, and at the end he set off with the army.

Grief, extreme grief, although Yinzuo, as a time traveler, knew that the Qing Dynasty would lose miserably in this battle, but he was powerless, unable to do anything, and could only watch helplessly as more than 6 soldiers stained the battlefield with blood , This is Yinzuo's sorrow - he can't and can't stop this battle, one is that Yinzuo can't explain why this battle was defeated, and two, Yinzuo has to worry about the suspicion of Mr. Kangxi, dare not and can't fight It is the sorrow of being a successor that one's own hand has been thoroughly extended into the military field.

"The front is going to be defeated, and I'm afraid there are not many who can come back alive." Yin Zuo, who had been silent for a long time in the study, raised his head from the map, and looked at the two counselors, Wu and Lin, with tears in his eyes. .

"What? How could this happen?" Rao Shiwu and Lin were always calm, and when they heard Yinzuo's assertion, they couldn't help feeling extremely startled and dizzy for a long time.

Although Wu and Lin are both wise men of the time, they don't know much about military affairs, but they are very clear about Yinzuo's military accomplishments. Since Yinzuo dares to say so definitely, then this matter is probably inseparable. Really, Lin Xuanyi was stunned for a long time before shaking his head with a wry smile and said: "[-] lives, alas, if this news really comes out, I'm afraid there will be another big shock in the court, according to the prince's opinion , when will this news reach the capital?"

"Well, the military report in this king's hand is expedited at [-] li. The date of the report is five days ago. If nothing unexpected, the situation on the battlefield must have deteriorated at this time. There will be another three to five days at most. The defeated soldiers should be able to escape to the back camp, plus the time to send the army report, well, it should be eight days later. Even if the king wants to rescue at this moment, it will be too late, alas." Yinzuo's face was full of pain He shook his head and said.

"Well, it's too late, but I'm afraid the matter of the second expedition will be brought up on the agenda." Lin Xuanyi frowned and said: "Considering the personality of the Holy Majesty, the movement of the second expedition may not be small. The selection of candidates is very important, we must not let the coaching position fall into the hands of others."

That's a natural thing, well, in my impression, the old man Kangxi died before the news of the second expedition, but history has changed a lot, who knows if it will remain the same.Fighting in Tibet is no joke. Altitude sickness is a fatal thing. Even if my Qing soldiers are well-trained, I am afraid that they can only display [-]% of their strength in Tibet. , the tactics are flexible and changeable. It is basically impossible to see success in one battle. In this way, the possibility of a protracted war is extremely high. If so, this general will have enough time to conquer the hearts of the troops, hey , if the brothers fish it out, it will be a lot of fun.If the old man can't stand it anymore, those elder brothers have an army in their hands, and most of the governors all over the provinces are the eighth people, it is not impossible to have a mutiny, even if the old fourteen is in command, We may not be able to rest assured, but the problem is that we can't go to command in person, and the gang of slaves under us are not qualified enough, grandma, this is really a headache.Yin Zuo shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I know this well, it's just... oh."

"Your lord, why worry too much? If your lord believes that the defeat of this battle is certain, the commander-in-chief who will go out again must be the Fourteenth Lord. There is no doubt about it. The lord can calculate the victory or defeat of this battle in advance, it is God. I'm helping the prince." Wu Sidao said coldly.

God help?Hehe, there is some truth in what I said, God doesn't know what jokes are being made, we fell asleep soundly, and when we woke up, we became elder brothers, hey, God this thief!Yin Zuo knew that Wu Sidao's judgment was correct, and Mr. Kangxi would only let the old fourteen be in charge, but how to guard against the possible ambitions of the old fourteen was a big problem.Yinzuo frowned all the time but didn't speak.

Wu Sidao glanced at Yinzuo, and then said: "Since the prince has known the news of the defeat in advance, some things have to be stepped up. Before the news comes back, what should be done must be done immediately."

"Huh?" Yin Zuo looked at Wu Sidao suspiciously and asked, "If Mr. Wu has any advice, you might as well explain it clearly."

"First, the lord must keep this secret. Even the Fourteenth Lord cannot mention the defeat; second, Li Ke should move his position. The admiral of Sichuan is a good place. Let Li Ke do it, um, plus Bo Wen, the governor of Shanxi Province, just choked the throats of all the troops entering Tibet; the third one is a bit cumbersome, I'm afraid I have to deal with the fourth master for this matter." Wu Sidao calmed down. ground analysis.

Well, the first two things are nothing more than the first two. It's not difficult to make an order for Li Ke's old fourteen to play tricks on, but we have nothing to do with the old four. We haven't had any contact with that kid for a long time. Now, why should we deal with an idle prince with no errands?Yin Zuo frowned and said: "The third item Mr. Wu said refers to..."

"Liangdao, as long as Liangdao is in the hands of the prince, no matter who is in command, if he wants to move around, what can he do without food?" Wu Sidao sneered and said: "Now Liangdao in western Sichuan is Dai Ning, the fourth disciple. , Most of the grain roads in Shaanxi are also owned by the fourth master, if the prince wants to seize the grain road, he can't get around the gate of the fourth master."

Grandma, that’s really the case. This matter is very difficult. Most of the household department is staffed by the old four. Although we also have some people in it, if we want to bypass the old four and join the household department, we have to I'm afraid it won't be that easy, but this time I'm in big trouble.As soon as Yinzuo thought of the stinky face of the fourth child, he suddenly felt a bit big-headed, walked around the room for a while, and suddenly laughed and said: "Forget it, I just have a good chat with the fourth child, The king doesn’t want much, just the two grain roads in western Sichuan and northern Shaanxi. As for the conditions, I can complete the reform of the old fourth currency system. It’s just that the candidates for these two grain roads are not so easy to decide. It’s impossible without courage and scheming, but who should let it go is still a matter of scratching one’s head.”

"The selection of candidates is actually easy, there are two ready-made." Lin Xuanyi clapped his hands and smiled.
