Jia Ke saw that Chuncao understood a little, so he continued: "It's good that you understand, didn't I send you a few old ladies and eunuchs?" In the future, you will leave the affairs of Yanxi Palace to them, and you will definitely be able to keep your mother and son safe. ”

Chuncao kept nodding after listening, although she is now a noble concubine, but she must have been born a little maid, and she has no heirs after Jia Ke ascended the throne, so she has not offended anyone in the harem, she has never gone through the harem, and now there are a few people to help her, she is naturally willing.

Jia Ke stayed here in Chuncao for another afternoon, and left in the evening on the grounds that he was busy with official business.

And Chuncao was a little stunned when she was holding the child in the room alone, she didn't expect that there would be such a ghost in the harem.

Jia Ke had just finished dealing with Chuncao's affairs, and within a few months, another annoyance had been sent to his imperial case.

It turned out that since the Tatars moved westward, the 36 countries of the Western Regions were free for a while, but before they could be happy, the big black clothes in the west used cavalry to attack.

Although the black-clad master is wrapped in religion, there is a deep sense of aggression in his character. But wherever they were, they considered it to be their territory.

Then they will assimilate with religion, and if the natives are successfully assimilated by them, they can temporarily survive as slaves, otherwise they will carry out bloody massacres against the natives.

This time, after years of dormancy, after hearing that the Tatars had been defeated by the Central Plains Dynasty and had migrated to the west, he naturally understood that the 36 countries of the Western Regions had been abandoned by the Tatars, so this time he led the troops again and wanted to rule the 36 countries of the Western Regions again.

Those people in the Western Regions are all small and weak, and even if they are united, they are not the opponents of the black-clothed master, and soon more than 20 countries of 36 countries were occupied by them.

The remaining small countries, as soon as they saw that something was wrong, immediately wanted to find a backer again, and the biggest backer near the Central Plains was naturally the Central Plains Dynasty.

So these small states united and sent a large army of envoys to the capital of Dayan, asking for the existence of a subject state of Dayan.

And Jia Ke is troubled precisely because of this matter.

Because Jia Ke came from the later generations, but knowing the power of this Middle Easterner, Jia Ke thought about it, and the policies adopted by those strong people who conquered the Middle East when they were on Earth were a little relieved.

Although the Middle Easterners are powerful and barbaric, when they encounter an iron-blooded strong man, their barbarism is completely useless.

When they were on Earth, the Middle Easterners were not unconquered, as long as they adopted a policy of iron and blood, killed and killed, and completely killed these Middle Easterners, they would be honest.

If you talk about civilization with these people, it will be more than worth the loss, and you don't see a few superpowers in the Middle East being disgraced.

Moreover, for the Central Plains Dynasty, the 36 countries of the Western Regions are a very important location, he is not only an important part of the Silk Road, but also a buffer place between the Central Plains Dynasty and the Western powers, and must not be lost.

After Jia Ke made up his mind, he immediately convened a great court in the Taihe Palace, and met with the envoys of various countries from the Western Regions who came to ask for submission.

After these envoys from the Western Regions came to the Taihe Palace, they were afraid of the magnificence and solemnity of this place.

After they met Jia Ke, they found that although Jia Ke was mediocre, he had the majesty of an emperor all over his body, and these people were immediately suppressed by Jia Ke's majesty, and they all knelt on the ground after meeting.

Jia Ke sat on the throne and nodded when he saw that these people were reasonable.

The rest of the matter was much simpler, the emissaries first offered a table of surrender, and then asked Jake to protect their country.

Jia Ke took their descending table, and after reading it carefully, he found that there were no flaws, so he nodded, and then said to them: "Since you and others want to return to our dynasty, they are naturally vassal states of the Central Plains, and I have the obligation to protect your safety." ”

"You and the others will rest in the post house for the time being, and as for the matter of sending troops, the stakes are very high, and I will give you an answer after I have discussed it."

These envoys immediately thanked them for their kindness, and then withdrew from the Taihe Hall under the guidance of the people from the Ministry of Rites.

When these outsiders were gone, Jia Ke asked the ministers, "Do the ministers think we should send troops to the Western Regions?" ”

The ministers below actually knew the reason for the arrival of the envoys from the Western Regions for a long time, and they had been discussing it for a long time, and they had basically reached a consensus.

Now Jia Ke asked Sun Yan, who was the Minister of Military Aircraft, and immediately came out to pray: "Long live Qiyu, the ambition of the black-clothed wolf-eater, after it annexes the 36 countries of the Western Regions, it will definitely peep into the territory of our country, and a big war will still be inevitable at that time, it is better to send troops to the Western Regions now and put the war outside the country." ”

Jia Ke was very satisfied when he heard this, which was exactly what he thought.

"The first assistant of the military aircraft has already expressed his position, do you have any other ideas below?"

The people below looked at each other, and then they fell to their knees together, "The ministers seconded the proposal." ”

Jia Ke saw that there was finally a time when the ministers had the same hatred, so he happily stood up from the throne, bypassed the imperial case, stood in front of the royal street steps and said to them: "Everyone, the black-clothed people are not convinced by Wang Hua today, and they have repeatedly violated my subject country. ”

"This time, with Huang Baifeng as the marshal and Xiao Yue as the vanguard, he commanded 100,000 horses in Xuanfu Town, 50,000 horses in the Fenwu Battalion, and 80,000 cavalry in the Manchu Eight Banners, and met in Xi'an, and then went out of Yumen Pass to conquer the black-clothed food."

After the Great Dynasty of the Day, Jia Ke's holy decree flew quickly towards Xuanfu Town and the Manchu Eight Banners.

Huang Baifeng did not dare to slack off after receiving Jia Ke's holy decree, and immediately rectified the army in Xuanfu Town.

Although the current Xuanfu Town still exists as one of the nine sides, they are actually considered an inland army.

Huang Baifeng, as the envoy of Xuanfu Town, immediately rectified the people after receiving the holy decree and advanced to Xi'an in accordance with the decree.

And Xiao Yue, who was in the capital, also bid farewell to his wife Jia Yingchun and marched to Xi'an with the Fenwu camp.

The Manchu 8 Banners were even faster, as soon as Jia Ke's order arrived, each of them sent 10,000 horses out of the 8 Banners, and then under the leadership of the leaders of the various ethnic groups, one person and two horses quickly went to Xi'an.

This time, Jia Ke ordered the main force of the troops to march west, with 150,000 infantry and 80,000 cavalry.

There were far fewer of these centaurs than the Tatars of the Northern Expedition, but Jake was absolutely sure that he would be able to defeat the Black-Clad Eater.

Because the 150,000 infantry of Jia Ke at this time is not the original, the troops that use knives and guns, they have been completely firearmed.

And with the passage of time, and Jaco's large amount of money, now their muskets are no longer flintlock pistols, but Minnie guns that use Minnie bullets.

The Minnie Gun is a traversing artifact, but a cross-ancient bigwigs finally swept the Quartet with the Minny Gun.

When I arrived at Jia Ke, it was no exception, although Jia Ke's gold finger had nothing to do with these mechanical manufacturing.

But Jacques still relied on some of his own memories, and then combined with the ingenuity of the craftsmen of the Central Plains, he finally made a mini gun with rifles.

Don't think that making a Minny gun is very simple, on the contrary, it is almost as cumbersome to make as modern rifles.

Not long after the appearance of the Mini gun, the modern rifle appeared on the European battlefield, which shows that there is not much substantial technical gap between the production of the Mini gun and the modern rifle.

Now there is a saying that the Mini gun was born at the wrong time, but this is actually a misunderstanding. There is no essential difference between the production of mini-guns and modern rifles.

For example, rifled, the Mini gun is no different from a modern rifle, and the main difference between a Mini gun and a modern rifle is the difference in firing device and ammunition.

These are momentary inspirations, and there is no technical gap.

Since there is a modern rifle, whether it is in stability, range, and rate of fire, it surpasses the Mini gun, and everyone naturally uses the modern rifle, so the Minny gun quickly declined.

And Jia Ke now has a last resort to use the Minny gun instead of the modern rifle.

First of all, although Jia Ke's industry can produce modern rifles, it can only barely produce Mini bullets with slightly worse accuracy for bullets.

As for modern bullets, he has absolutely no means, at least not yet he has been able to produce rifle bullets that meet the accuracy requirements.

Don't think that the rifle bullet is easy to make, you see that India now, can build airplanes, tanks, rockets have also gone to the sky, but he just can't make bullets, now the bullets used in India are imported from the West, you can think of the difficulty of making bullets.

And Jia Ke was stumped by the bullet, so his troops had to use Minnie guns for the time being.

However, Jia Ke thinks that even if he uses the Mini gun, he can also have an absolute advantage over the enemy, because the Mini gun shoots very fast and has a range of 400 meters.

With just two, Jaco's troops can sweep away all enemies.

Now the main thing that restricts Jia Ke is the logistics supply, and the current Mini gun can't be like the original flintlock pistol, as long as the craftsmen of the army can make some casually to meet the needs of the troops, this Mini gun ammunition must be made from the rear and transported to the front.

Therefore, an important reason for Jia Ke to let Huang Baifeng and Xiao Yue meet in Xi'an is that Jia Ke set up a large arsenal in Xi'an, and the shells and bullets stored here are enough to deal with a large-scale war.

After Huang Baifeng and Xiao Yue led their men and horses to meet in Xi'an, according to Jia Ke's will, the bullets extracted from the arsenal in Xi'an.

After this, the Manchu Eight Banners also rendezvoused in Xi'an, and when they arrived, they immediately abandoned the bows and arrows in their hands and replaced them with flintlock pistols that Jia Ke had originally equipped his troops and had later been replaced by Minnie guns.

Although these flintlock pistols are much worse in terms of range and even in terms of firing speed, they are also great black technology for other countries.

After these Manchu Eight Banners were equipped with flintlock pistols, they could be said to be like a tiger with wings.
