Chapter 425: The Manchus want to attack the northwest
The next move of the old superintendent Sun Chengzong made Zhu Shun a little incomprehensible, picked up the rice wine brought by Liu Quanju, poured it into the noodles in the blue and white bowl, stirred it a few times, and sucked it up.
From time to time, I picked up a bad fish and put it in the bowl, and the one I ate was called a fragrant, and Zhu Shun, who was on the other side of the Eight Immortals table, saw that some saliva overflowed from his mouth.
After the old superintendent Sun Chengzong finished eating the noodles in the bowl, he put down the blue and white bowl that didn't even have soup left, and said a word very plainly.
This sentence was very plain, but Zhu Shun heard a word of regret from it.
"I thought this was the old man's chance to go out of the mountain, but I didn't expect Sun Chuanting, this kid, to be so capable of fighting, defeated 200,000 thieves with thousands of soldiers and horses."
The old superintendent Sun Chengzong regretted and was more relieved at the same time, just as he took over the banner of the army from Xiong Yanbi back then, and his disciple Yuan Chonghuan took over the banner of the army from him.
But since his disciple Yuan Chonghuan was scolded to death by the Donglin Party, there has been a bleak scene in the Ming army, and Sun Chuanting's appearance just filled this vacancy.
Although the old superintendent Sun Chengzong regretted that he had not been able to leave the mountain, Sun Chuanting, who had just entered middle age, was able to take the military banner from him, an old man, which was more exciting than him going out of the mountain himself.
When Zhu Shun drank the half jar of rice wine, the old superintendent Sun Chengzong got up and left here: "The old man can finally go to be a teacher with peace of mind." ”
When it comes to the word teacher, the old superintendent Sun Chengzong's mood is happier than eating a bowl of rice wine noodles.
Although he couldn't come to the battlefield in Liaodong in person, he was able to use the army lecture hall to make the Ming army have an unprecedented talent situation.
What could be more satisfying than cultivating a group of people with the same philosophy and the same beliefs?
Zhu Shun is like this.
Sun Chengzong is even more so.
I think of the future, the first, second, and third phases of the Army's Lecture Hall....... The students fought bravely on the battlefield to kill the enemy, abide by the three disciplines and eight points, and pay attention not to take a stitch from the people.
On the way to the Army's Lecture Hall, Sun Chengzong even hummed a small song.
Zhu Shun looked at the old superintendent's indignation that he had no way to serve the country, hummed a little song happily, and went to Chaohe in a very good mood.
The seventh disciple Xu Jixin has made a breakthrough in the research of coal washing, which is related to the first wave of dividends of the industrial revolution, and it is very important, and Zhu Shun wants to go over and watch it personally.
The turmoil caused by Sun Chuanting's defeat of 200,000 thieves with thousands of officers and soldiers had not yet dissipated in the Ming court, and this matter soon spread to the Manchu Shengjing City.
Shengjing Imperial Palace.
Daisho Hall.
Huang Taiji and a group of important ministers of the Qing Dynasty wearing flower feathers were discussing the matter of attacking the Ming Dynasty after the winter.
The current Qing Kingdom is not like before.
With potatoes, it occupies the fertile Beihaier Lake, raises endless cattle, sheep and horses, and the population has grown a lot.
However, the Qing Dynasty lacked silk, tea, porcelain, and other Central Plains items for pleasure, and these Belle beyers who grew up in the white mountains and black waters were like a group of wealthy businessmen who suddenly became rich.
There are extremely high requirements for food, clothing, housing and transportation, and I am very eager for all kinds of exquisite things in Daming, and I am more excited and enthusiastic about attacking Daming than in previous years.
In particular, Dolgon needed to capture a group of shipbuilders, reopen the shipyards in Liaodong, and sell the medicinal materials of Liaodong to the South Seas to be folded into silver.
Only with a large amount of silver in his hand, Dolgon can strengthen the strength of the Zhengbai Banner, and after the death of Huang Taiji, who will decide the Great Qing Kingdom is still the strength.
Fan Wencheng, who strongly advocated attacking the Ming Dynasty in the past, did not approve of attacking Shanhaiguan, but it was not his conscience that discovered it.
Fan Wencheng's idea of occupying Central Siberia and Eastern Siberia further north in the steppe was just an accident, and the initial idea was very simple, just to see if he could find another Beihaier Lake further north.
In this way, the Great Qing Kingdom can once again have a granary of the world.
No one could have imagined that Central and Western Biberia was so rich in minerals, and the attitude of the Great Qing Kingdom towards Central Siberia in the northern part of the steppe changed, and the various banner lords Baylor rushed to enclose the land and divide up those rich mineral deposits.
The human heart is always insufficient, and Central Siberia and Eastern Siberia are covered with ice and snow all year round, and potatoes can only be grown near lakes and rivers, which cannot be popularized on a large scale.
Western Siberia, occupied by Tsarist Russia, was different, with flat land suitable for growing potatoes and a large number of Cossack camps scattered around.
Fan Wencheng fell in love not only with the vast granary, but also with the Cossacks.
Fan Wencheng always likes to understand the local customs first, so he has an in-depth understanding of the situation in the countries of Eastern Europe and Romania from the mouths of Westerners such as John Tang.
The Cossacks in Tsarist Russia were the military households of the Ming Dynasty, and even inferior to the military households of the Ming Dynasty.
It was much easier to absorb these Cossacks, they didn't want to fight, as long as they were given generous treatment, they could absorb those Cossacks who did not have enough to eat and had to fight for the lords and nobles.
The immediate task now is to take advantage of the great chaos in the northwest, take the northwestern provinces of the Ming court, and migrate the Cossacks to the northwest, so that the Europa can control the Han Chinese, who have a large population.
The biggest disadvantage of the Qing Dynasty was that there were too few Manchus, and as long as they occupied the northwestern provinces of the Ming Dynasty, they could make up for this disadvantage.
Fan Wencheng has the household registration of the Ming Dynasty provinces sent by the Jin merchants, and records the population of the Ming Dynasty provinces in detail.
Ding households in Shanxi, 5,317,359 people.
Ding households in Shaanxi, 4,52,67 people.
Fan Wencheng is a Han man, and he is very clear about the methods used by the bureaucrats and gentry to hide the Ding households, which are about 10 million people on the surface, but more than 20 million or 30 million in fact.
With these two or thirty million Han Chinese, Fan Wencheng was able to carry out servile rule, and the Manchus had the highest status to control the Cossacks, Mongols, Koreans and other foreign races, and these foreign races controlled the Han people with the largest number.
It will not be possible to complete the enslavement rule of the Han people in a few years, and it will be quite easy to pull up a Han Eight Banner with a number of hundreds of thousands.
This is the most important thing of the country.
Fan Wencheng knew very well why these princes of the Great Qing Kingdom were keen to attack Shanhaiguan, and the Great Qing Kingdom had sunk in front of Shanhaiguan too many times, and as long as Shanhaiguan was still in the sky, they would preach the shame of the Great Qing Kingdom to the world.
Now that the strength is stronger than before, of course, the princes of the Great Qing Kingdom will take down Shanhaiguan first.
Fan Wencheng looked at the princes and Baylors who were discussing how to attack Shanhaiguan, frowned slightly, and looked at Dolgon, who had been standing quietly next to him without speaking.
