"It's land reparation, and the Manchus are really willing to pay it. It seems that except for the so-called "Longxing Land" outside the Guanwai that they are ready to withdraw at any time, there is nothing they cannot cut. While speaking, Zhang Rui showed a mocking and slightly bitter look.

And the reason why Zhang Rui is like this is because he was sensible in later generations, and in the entire history of the late Qing Dynasty that he studied, basically the whole text was written about where the Qing Dynasty cut off and how much money it lost.

The people are as bitter as pigs and sheep, and they can still sing praises and praise the "prosperous era of Kangqian". The kings that Huaxia has practiced for thousands of years are stunned to let them play like scrap metal, and they can also shamelessly shout: "The times are like this, and it is the same for whoever comes." The fall of Huaxia has nothing to do with them. ”

The others are: the Son of Heaven guards the country, let the thieves divide the corpse, and do not hurt the people.

They are: I don't care how many people the Japanese kill in the Northeast, how much grain and coal they take away, as long as I am not made the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, I will not be willing.

Others are: those who commit strong men will be punished even if they are far away! ”

And my Daqing has completely done it, and those who commit crimes against me will pay for it even if they are far away. I don't care if you are guilty of a crime, as long as you dare to come, I will dare to compensate.

There are even "bold words" released: I would rather be with outsiders than domestic slaves. Measure the material resources of China and form the joy of the country.

Whether it's white or black, as long as you come, you're a foreigner, and you'll never be unreasonable to a foreigner. As a result, the national self-confidence of the entire Chinese nation has declined for hundreds of years.

Du Mu didn't understand why Zhang Rui showed such an expression, but when he heard Zhang Rui talk about the so-called "Land of Longxing" in the Manchu Dynasty, he took over and said: "There is news that the team of more than 3,000 people sent by Tsarist Russia is fighting with the Manchu border army in Heilongjiang, and the Tsarist army has killed a lot of civilians in Heilongjiang. ”

"It is estimated that it is because of this that the Manchus will choose to give up some land on the border of Yunnan in exchange for a limited time peace in Yunnan, so as to free up more materials to be transported to Heilongjiang and keep their 'ancestral land'."

"Fart, their 'ancestral land', the Ming Dynasty was too kind to take them in. As a result, they didn't have the shame to say anything about the 'Seven Great Hatreds', and slaughtered millions of Han people in Liaodong. And after entering the customs, not only did they kill the Zhu Ming royal family, but they also slaughtered the city everywhere and killed countless people. A herd of wild boar skins of Tunguska! Zhang Rui immediately became furious.

"Yes, yes, they are indeed an ungrateful bunch of boars! The minister said the wrong thing, please ask the emperor to punish the crime. Although the saint has not been convicted of words today, Du Mu hurriedly confessed.

As for why Zhang Rui hated the Manchus so much, Du Mu seemed to understand.

As everyone knows, Zhang Rui respects his mother very much, otherwise he would not often use his mother to offend a lot of gentry and vulgarity to seek a lot of benefits for women in the world, which is really a rare person in the world.

Not to mention the suffering that the Manchus have brought to him over the years, just because Zhang Rui's mother is after Zhu Ming, with the Manchu Dynasty's almost extermination attitude towards Zhu Ming's descendants, it is strange that he can have a good impression of the Manchus.

"In a word, I'm not a person who loves to punish others at every turn, and you don't have to." Zhang Rui comforted Du Mu.

"Yes, Weichen thanks the emperor for his incurable grace." No matter how casual Zhang Rui said, Du Mu still followed the etiquette respectfully and said

In fact, for Zhang Rui, Du Mu also has sincere respect.

I knew that his initial acquaintance with Zhang Rui came from him following the five masters who were directly connected to the mountain to kill him. However, as things continue to develop later, Zhang Rui can completely trust himself, the person who wanted to kill him in the first place, regardless of his previous suspicions, which is what a great emperor's grace.

There is a saying since ancient times: women are those who please themselves, and those who are confidants die. At this time, Du Mu deeply felt the meaning of these words.

"Although I don't have the name of Xiao Du (1), I don't have the credit of Xiao Du. With the Lord like this, what if you have to carry more darkness? Du Mu thought secretly in his heart.

"What kind of place is Mali Dam, and why did the Manchus cede it?" Zhang Rui suddenly asked as if he remembered something.

"Back to the emperor, speaking of Maliba, this place actually has some relationship with our Yi Dynasty, and it is probably the same, so the Manchu Qing Dynasty wanted to cede this uncertain factor." Du Mu sorted out his thoughts and replied.

"Oh, go on." Du Mu's words made Zhang Rui suddenly feel interested.

"In the second year of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Yongli was hanged to death by Wu Sangui on the slope of Kunming. After the death of Emperor Yongli, except for a small number of his subordinates who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, most of them fled with the general Yang Gaoxue to take refuge in the Kegan Mountain near the Sino-Burmese border, which is this Mali Dam, and then they continued to deal with the Qing army here for a long time. It was not until later that the Qing Dynasty set up the "Mubang Xuanwei Division" near Lashio and ordered Yang Gao Xueshi to guard his place, and their struggle with the Qing Dynasty was over. After Du Mu finished speaking, he involuntarily took a deep breath and continued.

"Now in the Burma-Qing War, Yang Weixing, the Tusi of Maliba, did not choose to surrender to see that he came to Burma strongly, but has been fighting against Burma in the rear, which has caused great trouble to the logistics of the Burmese army, which has also given the Manchu army a lot of help."

"However, even if the newly appointed Tusi Yang Weixing has the ability, it seems that it is not enough for a single land of Mali Dam to fight against the male lord Yongjiya, who has just unified Myanmar."

At this time, the Manchus had no intention of fighting in Yunnan, and they probably thought that the people of Maliba were some remnants of the Ming Dynasty, but they were forced to surrender to the Qing Dynasty out of desperation. Now that I have the orthodoxy of the Yi Dynasty, they will defect to us at any time, so it is reasonable to discard the danger of rebellion at any time in exchange for the stability of the Yunnan border. ”

"And Myanmar, obstructed by the unwillingness of the Maliba and other parties to surrender to its Tusi, is unlikely to go any further. So both the Manchus and Burma had the idea of reaching an agreement. Once they reach an agreement, the Manchus will have a respite, and Burma will go on a killing spree in the newly acquired land, gaining strength and perhaps threatening our Guangxi. ”

"Oh, Burma. If I remember correctly, Emperor Yongli was humiliated in Burma! Zhang Rui's face showed a cynical look.

When Du Mu saw Zhang Rui like this, he knew that Myanmar was probably going to be in trouble this time, and replied indifferently: "Yes, it was the King of Myanmar who personally handed over Emperor Yongli to Wu Sangui, which made Emperor Yongli killed by Wu Sangui so easily." ”

Note (1): The meaning of Xiao Li Du here. That is, in the Tang Dynasty: Du Fu and Li Bai became the big Li Du, and Li He and Du Mu were called the little Li Du.
