After the Yushan Town Military Bureau developed a fixed artillery shell that could be used in actual combat, Liu Juntao was very happy, and immediately ordered the Yushan Town Military Bureau to start mass production and produce 100,000 rounds within three months!

This is a very terrifying number, and Zhang Baigui was shocked when he first heard this number.

But Liu Juntao didn't think so, in Liu Juntao's words, he wanted to use cannonballs and firecrackers to send all enemies to hell!

Of course, the silver needed to produce 100,000 rounds of shells was also a huge expense, especially the silk required.

However, fortunately, the Ministry of Commerce has now opened several silk workshops in various parts of the Yangtze River, and has begun to mass-produce silk, which can regularly supply a lot of silk to the Yushan Town War Bureau.

Moreover, Tang Yu, Minister of Commerce, also prepared sufficient funds in advance in accordance with Liu Juntao's instructions, and could be transported to the Yushan Town Military Bureau at any time.

Liu Juntao and his company stayed in the Yushan Town Military Bureau for more than ten days, and then returned to Yushan Town to have a look, and went to Huakou Town, Zhangqiu Town, Anshan Town and other places to inspect one after another, after all, these places are Liu Juntao's base camp, they are the fundamental place, and special attention must be paid to them.

When Liu Juntao deployed the follow-up affairs of Yushan Town Military Bureau and other places, he rushed back to Yanzhou Capital City non-stop.

But as soon as Liu Juntao entered the General Military Mansion, he met Liu Zi'an, the head of the Investigation Department, and Lan Siqi, the Minister of Praise and Painting.

I saw that the two of them looked grim, and after seeing Liu Juntao, they all stepped forward quickly.

Liu Juntao understood at a glance that something must have happened, so he said: "Let's go!" Go to the study! ”

The two followed Liu Juntao to the study, and Liu Juntao asked, "What's wrong!" ”

Liu Zi'an said first: "General Town! The latest news came from the Domain-State Division: He also commanded the armies of all walks of life to win successive battles, and at present, the Tatar department in the west was defeated and retreated, the Wuliangha department in the east surrendered without a fight, and the Jurchen department in Liaodong returned to the wind! Now, the power has risen sharply, from the north of the Western Regions in the west, North Korea in the east, the extremely cold land of the North Sea in the north, and the nine-sided towns of the National Dynasty in the south, all of which are the territory of Warat. ”

Hearing this, Liu Juntao's face also became extremely embarrassed.

Although Liu Juntao knew that in history, he also defeated Tokhtar Buhua and completely controlled the power of Warat, and then began to expand his territory, but it seems that the expansion of the first in history was not so smooth, right?

"Is it because of my arrival that history has begun to deviate from its original track?"

When Liu Juntao thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a little weak in his heart.

At this time, Lan Siqi also said worriedly: "General Town! In my opinion, now he must be consolidating the internal affairs, and he will definitely reorganize the troops and horses immediately after the internal affairs of Warat are stabilized, and it is estimated that it will not be long before the Warat army will go south again, so we have to prepare in advance! ”

Liu Juntao nodded, and he also recognized Lan Siqi's consideration.

Because Liu Juntao knew very well in his heart that in the original history, he first controlled the entire Warat in a short period of time after defeating Tokhtar Buhua, and then called himself "Heavenly Sage Great Khan", established the name "Tianyuan", and took the second son Ashi Timur as the prince, but this series of actions also caused some dissatisfaction and resistance, but it did not form a scale for the time being.

In the early days of Yexian's rise, Warat controlled the eastern Mongolian tribes, and at the same time, he also used military conquest, feudal officials, marriage and alliances and other means to put the Qierjisi, Hami, Shazhou, Handong, Chijin, Wuliangha Sanwei and other tribes under his rule.

At the same time, he also befriended the Jurchen tribes and made them work for them.

At this time, when Warat was at its peak, according to Liu Juntao's preliminary estimate, as long as enough time was given, it was completely possible to collect troops from various departments, and then Warat's army would not be 300,000, even if it was doubled!

Thinking of this, Liu Juntao couldn't sit still, and immediately wrote a letter, preparing to ask Yu Qian, the secretary of the military department, to forward it to Emperor Jingtai.

In the twists and turns, Liu Juntao elaborated on the danger of the unprecedented expansion of Warat after seizing power first, and explained that Yexian would definitely move south after reorganizing the armament, and the attack of Warat Iron Cavalry this time would definitely be more dangerous than the change of Tumubao!

Therefore, Liu Juntao suggested in the recital that the imperial court should close all the passes on the nine sides as soon as possible, and completely cut off the way for Wara to obtain strategic materials such as iron, salt, tea, grain, and medicine.

At the same time, the imperial court should immediately mobilize elite soldiers and strong generals from all over the country, take advantage of the fact that the army has not yet been rectified, and there is no time to expand the troops and horses, and take the first step to kill the grassland, and completely strangle the rising Warat in the cradle!

A few days later, Liu Juntao's letter was sent to Yu Qian, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and it was accompanied by a handwritten letter from Liu Juntao, the content of which was almost the same as that of the book.

After reading it, Yu Qian also greatly appreciated Liu Juntao's strategic concept, and immediately presented Liu Juntao's recital to the palace.

When Emperor Jingtai saw Liu Juntao's performance, although he was also a little moved in his heart, but when he thought that the orthodox emperor lost the throne because of the war with Wara, did he have to fight with Warat again?

Emperor Jingtai was worried that once he was defeated in this battle, his prestige would collapse in an instant, and the orthodox emperor was very likely to take this opportunity to make a comeback!

So, Jingtai Disi thought about it for several days, and finally put Liu Juntao's performance aside, and there was no response to it.

Of course, for Liu Juntao, Emperor Jingtai is still very appreciative, at least from this letter can be seen that Liu Juntao is a general with real skills, and he is also a handsome talent, a loyal person for the country!

March of the second year of Jingtai.

Liu Juntao waited for a month, but did not receive any reaction from Emperor Jingtai to his performance, and he couldn't help but be disappointed.

At this moment, the Domain Division of the Investigation Department sent the latest information:

He was also called Khan in the Wara Khan tent, with the full name of "Dayuan Tiansheng (Tiansheng) Great Khan", and the founding name was "Tianyuan"!

At the same time, according to the intelligence of the Exploration Department's vassal division, after the name of Khan, he began to recruit troops and horses in various departments, and at present, the strength of Warat has reached 300,000 (some old and weak soldiers and horses have also been dismissed first, so the previous strength has been reduced), and it is still further increasing!

"It's finally here!"

Liu Juntao couldn't help but sigh when he heard the news.

At the same time, he also sent an envoy to inform the Ming Dynasty that he was called Khan, and sent a letter to Emperor Jingtai: "The former Yuan was mandated by heaven, and now I have obtained his position, and I have all his land, people, and national treasures." Therefore, I should follow the way of heaven and send envoys to reconcile with Ming, so that the two families can share peace. “

In this national letter, he first stated that he had rebuilt the Yuan Dynasty and hoped to be recognized by the Ming court.

At the same time, the envoy also proposed that he wanted to exchange good horses, mink skins, jade and other goods for the Ming Dynasty emperor's royal things such as "yellow, purple and red woven gold and nine dragon satins, yellow and red colored satin clothes, golden pots, and golden bowls", so as to be used as the first emperor.

However, at this time, Emperor Jingtai can be said to be angry, and the jade seal mentioned in the book of the first country is the death hole of the Ming Dynasty, when the Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang in order to hunt down the prince of the old Yuan who was in charge of the jade seal, sometimes even the army to beat the land in his hands can not be, just to pursue the prince of the old Yuan, but in the end let this dog Tartar escape with the jade seal of the country.

At this time, he first told Emperor Jingtai in the letter of state that he had mastered the jade seal of the country, and he was going to ascend the throne to become the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty.

As for the things that the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty used in the Yuan Dynasty, such as "yellow, purple, red, and red woven gold and nine dragon satins, yellow and red colored satin clothes, gold pots, and golden bowls" mentioned by the first envoy, Emperor Jingtai did not agree, and burned all these utensils in front of the first envoy!

After that, Emperor Jingtai made a reply, in the letter of state, of course, he refused to recognize that he was the Khan of the Yuan Dynasty, and in the reply he still called the Khan of the Yuan Dynasty, and at the same time ordered that he should immediately send an envoy to pay tribute.

After this dynasty, Emperor Jingtai faintly regretted in his heart, regretting that he did not listen to the advice of Liu Juntao, the chief military officer of Yanzhou Town, and Yu Qian, the secretary of the military department, so that now he is also rampant!
