Chapter 432: On the occasion of the Great War
At this time, Shi Jia. Henew's words made Qianlong interested again.
Taxation is related to the treasury and the lifeblood of the imperial court.
Wasn't it because the treasury was empty, so the Qing Dynasty finally picked up the country.
"You know they're short-haired thieves, and you expect thieves to think about these things? They are all brainless people who only care about their immediate interests, and they know that there is a day when there is no future this morning. It's already good to not rob the people's money openly, who cares about the loss of people's wealth. If you can collect the money justifiably, it is to give away all the money of the people to the barbarians overseas, I think, they don't care. Wu Daoqing refuted without hesitation.
"What's more, now that the thief sailor is powerful, it is not to mention whether we can collect taxes when we open the sea trade, but it is absolutely inevitable that the thieves can inquire about all kinds of information about our Qing Dynasty from those merchants who go out. In this way, for the imperial court, the gains really outweigh the losses. ”
When he heard Wu Daoqing say this, he saw Qianlong's body move slightly, as if he had made a decision in his heart.
"The sea trade will not be discussed in advance, as for the matter of increasing taxes on silver, Henew, you should draw up a charter as soon as possible." Qianlong said.
"Hey, the minion obeys." Shi Jia, who was named by Qianlong. Henew replied with a happy face.
"Tsarist Russia has unreasonably invaded the borders of our Qing Empire this time to burn and plunder, if you don't fight back, how can I save face in the Heavenly Empire? No matter how difficult the treasury is, it must be beaten back. Qianlong continued.
"Aligon, you go to the Eight Emperors to discuss, as the imperial merchants appointed by the imperial court, they have received the emperor's grace, so they should have more strength for the imperial court to calm the turmoil, let them take the lead for the merchants and donate some money to the treasury to show it."
"Hey, the minion obeys." Niu Hulu. Arigon's heart immediately rejoiced.
"Schuhed."
"Back to the emperor, the minions are here!" Hearing Qianlong's call, Shu Mulu. Schuhd immediately responded.
"Heilongjiang is the place of my Qing Dynasty's Longxing, where the dragon veins are, there must be no room for loss, you immediately go to draw up the imperial court's will to Su Hachi after the dispersal of the dynasty, and allow him to levy 10,000 border troops on the spot, not at all costs, be sure to drive the people of Tsarist Russia out of Heilongjiang, if you fail... Let him cut himself for gratitude! Qianlong said resolutely.
"Hey, the minion obeys." Shu Mulu. Shu Hede bowed to Qianlong and said.
"I plan to order Fu Heng to let him transfer the main force to pacify the big and small Jinchuan in Sichuan first. As for Yunnan, leave Zhang Jia. Ah Gui led people to restrain the footsteps of the Burmese. Compared with Yunnan, the stability of Heilongjiang and Sichuan is more important. Qianlong clenched his fists and said unwillingly.
In the twenty years since he came to power, although the road has been somewhat unsmooth, the empire has also moved forward smoothly under his leadership, and the courtiers and the people all call themselves the lord of the Holy Wisdom.
But since the rebellion of the damned short-haired thieves in the south, natural disasters and man-made disasters have continued. Now everyone treats the Qing Dynasty as a fat sheep that can be slaughtered at will, and everyone thinks that they can take a bite from the Qing Dynasty, but the empire is becoming more and more difficult.
He is determined to become a "Emperor of the Ages" like the "Holy Ancestor" Kangxi, and he should be invincible in pacifying the east and west, and the southern and northern expeditions.
"In the rebellion of the three feudatories, the Qing Dynasty was almost driven back to the gate by Wu Sangui, but finally relieved. The Holy Ancestor can survive such a dangerous situation, can I still survive it? Short-haired thief, after I survive the Qing Dynasty, it will be your time to die. Thinking of this, Qianlong inadvertently looked at the south, and his face showed a fierce image.
"Hey, the minion obeys." At this time, I heard Shu Mulu. Schuhed replied calmly, as if everything was expected.
"Okay, do you Aiqing still have this Qilu?" Qianlong came back to his senses and continued to ask.

Annan
Quang Nam Province
Yaoling Mountain Battlefield
March, spring season,
There is a way that good rain knows the season, when spring happens.
It was raining at this time.
Wen Lin, the third prince of Siam, who originally led the troops to Annam with great excitement, was in such a melancholy mood at the moment.
At the beginning of his arrival, even if Marogo poured cold water on him when they met, it still did not affect his competitive spirit. Few people could understand how much he longed in his heart to play a good record against the Yi army to show the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, as well as to his father.
But after several defeats, even if Wenlin is stubborn, he finally realized that Ma Luoguo had told him that the Yi Dynasty army was strong, but instead of exaggerating, it was still small.
Wen Lin, who has always used cold weapons to fight, has never felt the power of firearms, and it was not until he met Yi Jun that he understood what a strong army was.
The Siamese army with cold weapons in hand is not worth mentioning in the face of the powerful firepower of the Yi army, even if Wenlin is still leading tens of thousands of troops, but they can only rely on the dense jungle of Annam for defense.
In spring, it is rainy and humid.
Although the humid climate can make people feel uncomfortable, the generals of the Siamese army now agree that the only time that can make the Siamese army fight the Siamese army is when the weather is humid, and this will be the last chance for the Siamese army.
Since ancient times, wars have paid attention to time, place, and people.
The humid climate means that the gunpowder of the Yi army will be seriously affected, and the strength of the Yi army, which relies on the advantage of firearms, will also be greatly reduced. So, the time of the day, they occupied.
For the Siamese army, which has been fighting jungle warfare all year round, they don't think that the Yi army from afar will be more familiar with the mountain and jungle battles here than them.
As for Renhe, the soldiers of Siam have always been pressed and beaten by the Yi army, and they have actually been violent to the extreme, but they were pressed and beaten by the Yi army's firearms, and they had no power to fight back, so there was no way.
Now, as long as they preach to them, the humid weather will make the firearms of the Yi army useless, and the soldiers of the Siamese army will show the attitude of "mourning the soldiers will win" and have no fear to fight the Yi army.
In the case of occupying the time, place, and people, if their Siamese army still fails to defeat the Yi army, then these Siamese generals really don't know how to defeat the Yi army.
Unbeknownst to the Siamese generals, however, while they were mobilizing their armies to prepare for an attack on the Yi army, the Yi army was also mobilizing the assembled Annam Army, the Cambodian Army, and the recently formed Champa Army.
The people of Annam and Cambodia were slaughtered by the Siamese army, so they have some extraordinary hatred for the Siamese army, especially under the propaganda of the Yi army, this hatred is almost endless, and the Cham army is to work hard for the imminent restoration of the country, and they dare not slack off.
The two sides are fighting, and it is on the verge of breaking out!
