At the same time that the Ming Dynasty moved troops to bully the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the Daming Daily also reported on the matter at the same time.

From the first army's 20,000 iron cavalry to the Manchu Bulha grassland, defeated the Qing army's 60,000 cavalry, plundered 80,000 people, more than 800,000 cattle, sheep and horses returned, and only lost more than 2,000 people.

And then for the second time, the three armies of 58,000 Ming iron cavalry once again entered the Manchu Bulha grassland, and fought fiercely with Dolgon's 220,000 Qing troops near the central position of the grassland, and killed nearly 40,000 Qing troops in the first battle, forcing Dolgon to surrender on the spot, and offered to go to the emperor, to the Ming Dynasty, and pay tribute every year.

After the two wars, the number of the Ming army was far lower than that of the Qing army, but the two wars achieved decisive and brilliant results, and the national self-confidence of the Ming people almost burst.

"Hehe, Tartars have today!" There is a way of schadenfreude for the people on the streets of Nanjing.

"Yes, at the beginning, the Tartars kidnapped my Daming, killed my Ming people, and bullied my Daming, but now it is our Ming's turn to kidnap them, kill their people, and humiliate them!" Another common man also gloated.

"Take the initiative to go to the emperor's name, call the ministers to pay tribute, count them as acquaintances, otherwise the Daming Iron Cavalry will definitely be able to completely destroy them!"

Most of the people's discussions were relieving and ridiculing.

In the imperial court, the civil and military officials also discussed that the Ming soldiers were unstoppable, and what people dared to resist the Ming Iron Cavalry, they could only be wiped out.

With an absolutely strong move, the Ming Dynasty declared the strength of the Ming Dynasty to the people of the Ming Dynasty and the civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty, and declared that the Manchu Tartars who oppressed the Ming Dynasty were nothing more than that, and all the shame that the Manchu Qing brought to the Ming Dynasty was returned to the Manchus.

The last trace of jealousy and panic of the Ming people and civil and military officials towards the Manchu Qing Dynasty also disappeared, and they turned to disdain and ridicule, and the national self-confidence of the Ming Dynasty reached a new level.

On December 29, before Chinese New Year's Eve, 100 million taels of silver exchanged for 220,000 Manchu prisoners were transported to the city of Nanjing.

A long convoy of horse-drawn carriages drove along the concrete roads of Nanjing, and in order to let the people know what it was, one of the boxes in each cart was opened, and the gold and silver inside were exposed.

"This is the property worth 100 million taels of silver that the Manchurians paid tribute to our Daming?"

"That's right! Right! Definitely! The people once again said that the gold and silver were paid tribute to the Ming Dynasty by the Manchus, and the people who did not know the truth immediately began to sigh and ridicule the weakness of the Manchus.

"Da Ming is mighty!"

"Long live my emperor!"

The people shouted in unison, and at this moment, their pride as the people of the Shangbang Dynasty was completely aroused.

The next day, on Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhu Ci held a banquet at the imperial palace to entertain hundreds of officials.

In the early morning, as the palace bell rang, Daming ushered in the ninth year of Zhongxing.

Looking back on the eight years of Zhongxing, the Ming Dynasty regained control of Tibet, and completely annexed the Tibetan area, truly incorporated into the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and at the same time annexed Zhunger, established ** Province and Xinjiang Province, and expanded the territory by one-fifth. In addition, he bullied the Manchus and forced the Manchus to go to the emperor with powerful soldiers to claim the title of ministers, and washed away the shame that the Manchus brought to the Ming Dynasty.

Because the treasury has an extra 100 million taels of silver, according to the calculation of one tael of silver for 100 silver dollars, plus the issuance of five times the issuance, the Daming Central Bank immediately issued an additional 50 billion silver dollars, so far, the Daming Central Bank issued a total of 2.5 trillion silver dollars.

In the eight years of Zhongxing, Daming's economy has reached a higher level, with a tax revenue of more than 20 billion silver dollars.

In terms of science and technology institutes, 400 new innovations have also been added, once again vigorously promoting the development of Daming technology.

In terms of railways, after more than eight months of repairs, hundreds of thousands of prisoners practiced one line, and the first railway in the Ming Dynasty was completed in its entirety.

Because the Yangtze River Bridge has not yet been built, the first railway in the Ming Dynasty was built in the south of the Yangtze River, which is the Nanfu Line Railway from Nanjing City to Fuzhou, Fujian.

On the twelfth day of the first month, the Nanfu Line Railway officially began trial operation, with the sound of several beeping steam whistles, in Nanjing Railway Station, a huge long steam train slowly moved, and faster and faster, and soon rushed out of the railway station, towards the outside of Nanjing.

In the city, many people were alarmed, and they looked for the sound one by one, only to see a huge smoke-spewing monster driving quickly on the railroad surrounded by iron fences.

After the train leaves the city of Nanjing, it travels to the south, passes through Hangzhou after two hours, arrives in Fuzhou after seven hours, and the trial operation is completed, and there is no mistake in the whole process, indicating that the first railway of the Ming Dynasty will soon begin to carry passengers and civilians.

Starting from the 14th of the first month, Daming Daily vigorously advertised that train tickets would be sold on February 1, and on February 3, passenger trains would depart for the first time.

Nanjing City to Fuzhou, the whole journey is 2,000 miles, the fare is only 30 silver dollars, if you rush according to the past, it will take at least ten days, but if you take the train, you don't need a day, 30 silver dollars is definitely worth it.

Beginning on 3 February, as the first trains from Nanjing to Fuzhou and from Fuzhou to Nanjing arrived at the station after seven hours of travel, the passengers who took the train stepped out of the carriage and saw that they had really arrived at their destination within seven hours.

The next day, Daming Daily reported on the process of carrying passengers on the train for the first time, and at this moment, the whole Daming Dynasty was boiling, and the people shouted for a miracle.

The Yangtze River Bridge has been under construction for nearly a year, and it will be completed in about three months, and the construction of the second railway of the Ming Dynasty, the railway from Nanjing to Beijing, is being accelerated, and the construction of other lines of railways is also being stepped up.

In terms of cement road straights, because the construction difficulty is much smaller than that of the railway, the north has been repaired to Taiyuan and Tianjin, and the south has been repaired to Guangzhou and Guilin.

In the Ming Dynasty, the construction of cement roads and railway networks was accelerated, and the return of the 220,000 Manchu people not only restored the population of the Manchus to nearly 800,000, but also replenished the strength of the Manchu Eight Banners, with a total strength of 80,000.

In the ninth year of Zhongxing in the Ming Dynasty, in the first month, Dolgon personally led 120,000 iron cavalry and 100,000 Persian flags to once again invade the territory of the Mughal Empire.

On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, the Qing army defeated the 300,000 troops of the Mughal Empire, drank horses along the Indus River, and completely captured the land west of the Indus River of the Mughal Empire, gaining millions of people, and the strength of the Manchu Qing increased again.

It seems that in order to vent the humiliation imposed on them by the Ming Dynasty, and also to improve the strength of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and strive to obtain the strength that can compete with the Ming Dynasty as soon as possible, the Manchus frantically expanded their territory and launched wars against the surrounding forces one after another.

In February, the Manchus, who returned from the great victory of the Mughal Empire, did not rest much, and once again went north to attack the Kazakh Khanate, and fought with the 150,000 cavalry of the Kazakh Khanate in the Kazakh steppe, and after three hours of fierce fighting, the cavalry of the Kazakh Khanate was defeated, and more than 500 miles of steppe were captured by the Manchus.
