"This time, I pursued the Dzungar Department, and I encountered the army of Tsarist Russia." Emperor Chongzhen said solemnly, "When they began to encounter the army at night, they took the initiative to attack. But when the army arrived, they all fled. These Tsarist Russian troops are just going to bully the weak and fear the hard! ”

Hong Chengchou naturally knew that his next opponent was likely to be Tsarist Russia, so he listened carefully.

Emperor Chongzhen continued to introduce Hong Chengchou: "I deliberately led the army and went around the place where they often moved, and scared them all away. It is estimated that the news will soon reach their Tsar, and based on the strength I have shown them, they should be relatively safe in a short period of time, and they will not dare to come east. But it's hard to say after a long time. ”

Seeing Hong Chengchou's somewhat puzzled look, Emperor Chongzhen explained: "As far as I know, it is impossible for them to expand westward, so they have been expanding eastward. But a few years ago, the Mongol tribes in the east of the country under my leadership cut off their claws that reached out to the east, and they were certainly not reconciled. This Western Regions is not too far away from them, and Qing still has to be careful. If you dare to come, you'll clean them up, you know? ”

"Weichen Command!" Hong Chengchou listened, probably had an understanding of the situation in the west, and hurriedly replied.

When Emperor Chongzhen saw that he responded, he put aside the matter of Tsarist Russia and instructed him: "On this side of Luntai, you must expand as much as possible, and those rescued herdsmen must be naturalized as much as possible." The establishment of schools, the promotion of the official language of the Ming Dynasty, and the reorganization of the army are all equally important, and they must all be done. ”

For this, Hong Chengchou has seen it in Guihua City and Baotou, and the emperor told him again, he naturally remembered it in his heart, and hurriedly made a guarantee.

After giving the order, Emperor Chongzhen led the army to triumph.

When he set out, all the herdsmen of Luntai came to congratulate their emperor, although many people did not even know a single big character of their own clan, let alone the official language of the Ming Dynasty, at this time, they were already very numerous.

On Emperor Chongzhen's way back to Beijing, he knew through the Grade A eavesdropping seed that it was almost over on the side of the Wa Kingdom.

…………

On the northernmost side of Honshu Island, Hauge's department, like a madman, is attacking the last daimyo of Honshu Island. However, he himself is not on the front line, but on the side of Hachinohe Port.

There are about 50 boats of various sizes parked here, including fishing boats, transport ships, and war ships.

As soon as the sun rose, groups of samurai began to line up on the ship, carrying a lot of things to the ship. Hauge himself, on the other hand, stood on the high ground of the harbor, looking out from time to time in the northwest direction, looking a little anxious.

Bao Cheng, who was on the side, saw it first, so he opened his mouth to comfort: "Master, don't worry, with the Houguang Emperor here, there is absolutely no problem with this plan to cheat death." ”

The Ming army fought steadily step by step, pushing all the way north, so that Hauge woke up from nightmares several times. Anyway, it seems that the Ming army has become his dream demon, and he can't remember how many times he was awakened by the Ming army. This may also be related to his experience of being chased by the Ming army all the way from Liaodong to North Korea, then to Kyushu Island, and to Honshu Island.

Therefore, Hauge was very worried, if he escaped to the other side of the ocean, would the Ming army chase after him?

For this reason, it was Bao Chengxian who offered a plan to deceive death.

It was when he attacked the last daimyo that he pretended to be defeated and was killed. The guise is the Later Emperor of Light, and the executor is Turg. Now Hauge is waiting for Turg to return from his mission.

At this time, hearing Bao Chengxian's words, Haoge glanced at him and did not say anything. The reason why he was anxious was that in addition to worrying about the success of this plan to deceive his death, he was also worried about whether the clansmen led by Turg would return safely.

Originally, there were not many remaining Jurchens, and after a frantic attack to the north, although Hauge had taken great care to protect his people, there were still casualties. Now counting the Jurchens led by Turg, there are less than a hundred people in total. For him, each one is very cherished.

In his anticipation, he finally heard the sound of horses' hooves. Hauge looked fixedly, and saw a group of horsemen turning around the corner of the road, but when he looked at it, he recognized that the leader was Turg.

Suddenly, Hauge couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly approached.

"Master, I have fulfilled my mission and completed it as planned." Turg's face was a little tired, but he was a little excited.

Their plan was to pretend that they couldn't resist the retreat in the evening, and then take advantage of the night to set fire to the interior, causing even more chaos. At the same time, kill the Emperor of the Later Bright Heaven, and a stand-in for Hauge. Among them, Hauge will be set on fire beyond recognition, but the Later Emperor will not, deliberately making people recognizable.

When Hauge heard this, he saw that there were five or six fewer people who could come back, and he couldn't help but feel a lot more relieved and said, "Okay, it's almost over here, let's leave this place early!" ”

Turg is also desperate, he is more afraid of the Ming army than Hauge. Since Chongzhen was captured by the Ming army in the land of Gyeonggi in the twelfth year, the Ming army has always been his nightmare. Hauge made the decision to flee to the other side of the ocean, and once he got rid of the Ming army, although he was very afraid of the ocean, he still agreed very much.

Before boarding the ship, Hauge took all the captives, in front of the temporarily set up god Amaterasu, and in front of the statue of Mazu Niangniang, all of them paid respects in a regular manner, begging to bless them to reach the other side of the ocean safely.

As for their original shamanic gods, they didn't understand water, so they ignored them.

When they arrived at the ship, standing at the bow of the boat, watching the ship slowly leave the dock, Hauge and the others were silent, obviously in a somewhat complicated mood.

In the past, who would have thought that one day, they would be chased by the Ming army and there would be no way to enter the earth. They even did not hesitate to enter the sea that they had always considered very dangerous, just to escape the pursuit of the Ming army!

Liaodong, farewell; Farewell to the Wa Kingdom, never again!

At this time, they no longer have the intention of counterattacking, they just want to escape as far as possible!

"Master, the Ming army shouldn't find out that we want to go to the other side of the ocean, right?"

"It should be!"

"Master, we should be able to go to that place that is bigger than the Ming Kingdom, right?"

"It should be!"

“……”

On October 11, the 22nd year of Chongzhen, Hauge and others left the island of Honshu by ship and entered the Pacific Ocean to begin their transoceanic adventure.

…………

A month later, Sun Chuanting led the army to advance to the northernmost part of Honshu Island. Because the Ming army did not accept the surrender of the samurai and daimyo, those remaining daimyo and samurai fled to Ezo Island.

Sun Chuanting did not chase it anymore, because Ezo Island has no occupation value for the time being. Honshu Island has just gone through war, and it is necessary to reassure the people and restore the people's livelihood.

Generally speaking, the civil strife of the Daimyo of the Wa Kingdom, as well as the disturbance of the remnants of the Jianju, made the people of the Wa Kingdom suffer from the turmoil, and the Ming Dynasty expelled those samurai daimyo and rescued the Wa Kingdom from the turmoil, and was deeply supported by the people of the Wa Kingdom.

At this time, for them, for the low-level people, can the emperor eat? What can it bring them? Not to mention, it is said that the Imperial Family has been wiped out in the war.

Therefore, when Sun Chuanting made it clear in the poster that this place in the Wa Kingdom would be a mansion of the Ming Dynasty in the future, no one had any objections, and they were even rejoicing to each other, glad that they could become the people of the Ming Dynasty!

The emperor system, which had been established since 660 B.C., finally came to an end in the 22nd year of Chongzhen.

As for the legend that the remnants of the founding of the troubled Wa Kingdom had been wiped out in the final battle, Sun Chuanting didn't believe it at all. Because he has long known that one of the main purposes of the Jianyu Yu's crazy northward attack is to grab ships.

It is not necessary to die until the final battle in the northernmost part of the state, and this plan of deception should not be too obvious. But at this time, Sun Chuanting didn't pay attention to it.

Because, if Jianyu wants to escape to the other side of the ocean by boat, he must first be able to reach the other side; In addition, the emperor had already set a national policy to expedition to the other side of the ocean, so even if the remnants of Jianyu could escape alive, they would be chased by the Ming army when they turned back.

After occupying the Wa Kingdom, Sun Chuanting sat in the Wa Kingdom, but the good news was sent to Jingshi.

…………

Before the 22nd year of Chongzhen's New Year, Emperor Chongzhen led the army to return to Beijing in triumph.

Ozirtu Khan stayed in Beijing and did not let him go to the Western Regions. Originally, he thought that the emperor of the Ming Kingdom would personally drive the expedition, although the Ming army was elite, it should be no problem to win the Zhun Geer Department, but the Western Regions are vast, maybe this battlefield will last for a few years.

Emperor Chongzhen's triumph, the most surprising thing was him. He never expected that after the emperor put down the rebellion of the Junggar Ministry, he would be able to rush back to Beijing for the New Year!

When he learned that Emperor Chongzhen would agree to the request of the Dzungar tribe in order to save his tribe, he personally led a large army to chase down the Dzungar tribe to exterminate the clan. This left him speechless for a long time, and he gave a recital that day, thanking God!

Emperor Chongzhen didn't care much about this. Even when the good news from the Wa Kingdom caused a sensation in Jingshi, he didn't care much.

After Emperor Chongzhen returned to Beijing, the thing he was most concerned about was the traffic situation in various places. He not only immediately reviewed the situation of paving roads and bridges and building railways in various provinces, but also ordered Gansu to give priority to the construction of railways outside the country.

At this time, the Ming Dynasty had conquered Korea and the Wa Kingdom in the east, and the entire Liaodong and even the Bering Strait were directly under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty; To the south, Annam, Dongwu, Luzon and the Straits of Malacca, as well as former Batavia, became part of the Ming Dynasty. Now the western part has expanded to Tibet and the Tien Shan.

It can be said that today's Daming has actually expanded to the limit. Next, the traffic must keep up, otherwise the territory opened up will eventually have problems.
