Chapter 506: Empress Ming's Map Frontier Technique
"Cheap these traitors!"
Her Majesty said with some dissatisfaction.
Obviously, the imperial husband's attitude towards Zhang Xianzhong did not conform to her ideals, saying that at this time, the Ming Dynasty was also considered to be the unification of the world, and even the King of Jingjiang was happy to offer the prefectures west of Liuzhou again......
He stayed in Guilin and was peaceful.
Anyway, it was all controlled by Tusi, and originally he formed an alliance with Tusi, and the latter's wolf soldiers helped him deal with the imperial court, but after Liuzhou was sacrificed, he was cut off from these Tusi. He doesn't really want to continue to fight by force, it's nothing more than dragging on for a day, it's better to simply hand it over, and after he hands over these prefectures, Yang Qing will definitely start to change the land in this area. In this way, the Tusi have to face Yang Qing, the former is willing to be captured and returned to the stream, and if he is not willing to be captured, he will fight with Yang Qing, then this struggle will definitely not end in a short time, and the gentry of Guilin and Pingle can continue to live for a few years.
To put it bluntly, it is a dead friend who is not a poor man.
In this way, the toasts who were originally behind them in Yang Qing's cleanup list had to run ahead of them.
It is estimated that a few Tusi of the Cen family are scolding the eighth-generation ancestors of King Jingjiang!
They bear the brunt of it.
The four major Tusi of the Cen family controlled Guixi, and they were already facing the encroachment of Huangzhuang in Nanning, and as more and more land reform team members ran to their territory to lure their subjects, those wolf soldiers had already grown grass in their hearts. There was still a restriction before, after all, theoretically they belonged to the Gui Domain, and they could close the road in the name of the Gui Domain to prevent the land reform team from entering, but after King Jingjiang donated the land, they no longer had this legal basis.
In the same way, they were also restrained by the imperial court.
Next, Yang Qing will definitely restore the military and political system in Guangxi, even if they are Tusi, they are also local officials under Guangxi, they are all Zhizhou Tongju and the like, the imperial court forcibly appoints a new Zhizhou with the militia, if they dare to stop it, it will be a rebellion.
Rebellion was rebellion before.
Anyway, they have the advantage of terrain, and they have those obedient wolf soldiers.
But now the wolf soldiers have grass growing in their hearts, and they are even waiting for the court to take action, and then they will kill the happy life of Huangzhuang together, and the result of resistance is only a dead end. There is no need to even say real resistance, as long as Tusi dares to have this intention at this time, the next thing is to be hacked to death by wolf soldiers, which has already had a precedent.
It is said that King Jingjiang's move can be regarded as making these toasts miserable.
However, King Jingjiang's move also completely showed his attitude of giving up armed resistance, so that the real separatist force was only Zhang Xianzhong, and with the strength of the Ming army at this time, the solution by force was only a 200,000-level westward expedition. The Yangtze River, Jianmen Pass, and Yunnan were pressed in three directions, and even the army was basically in place, and the two armies reorganized by Li Zicheng's department were in Hanzhong at this time, and they could attack Jianmen Pass at any time. Even the post road from Yichang to Fuzhou via Shizhou has been repaired, although it does not reach the level of the national highway, but there is no problem with the four-wheeled carriage that passes through the freight, although it can't carry too much, and the mountain road can't be calculated in a straight line, so this freight line takes a long time, but it is still enough to supply the Ming army in Fuzhou to attack Chongqing.
In this way, Sun Kewang's defense in Kuimen is meaningless.
After all, the artillery of the Ming army was set up opposite Chongqing.
Those cannons can bombard the shells into Chongqing City at any time, but if the Kuimen is cut off, there will be no continuous combat ability, after all, an army's ammunition transportation can only take the Yangtze River waterway, but the repair of the Guizhou Post Road has been completed, so that the Ming army's land supply to Fuzhou has been able to barely supply.
It can be said that all the preparations for solving Zhang Xianzhong by force have been completed, and Yang Qing is left to order the three directions to attack together.
But Yang Qing gave up.
This is a bit speechless.
"What are you doing with a dying man? How many years will he live? ”
The Protector lay there and said lazily.
"But wouldn't it be too cheap to let him die of illness in bed, this guy, especially since you also gave them so many benefits, and even promised to let Zhang Xianzhong's son inherit the Duke of Shu, and the clans he killed before are just like that? Li Zicheng finally solved Dolgon for us, which can be regarded as atonement for his crimes, and he should be given preferential treatment, but Zhang Xianzhong, he has not made any meritorious service! ”
The Empress said.
"Didn't he also open up Kangding?"
Yang Qing said.
"Kangding is only a big place, don't bully me I don't know whether the map is good or not, then Kangding is at best the territory of a prefecture, and Li Zicheng won the northern capital and the Western Regions to expand thousands of miles, which can't be compared at all. Zhang Xianzhong wants to exchange for pardon, how can it be about the same, Hu Yuan is more than us there, and my country cannot be smaller than Hu Yuan! ”
Her Majesty said, pointing at the huge map in front of her with a stick.
It has the posture of opening up the territory on the map.
"Hurry up and pass on the message of Her Majesty the Empress to Liu Wenxiu, saying that Her Majesty thinks that they have developed too little in Kangzang over the years, and is very dissatisfied with the work of the envoy of the Kawabe Economic Strategy. At the very least, they had to take the territory of the Duogandu Command Envoy, and then establish a separate Xikangdu Command Envoy, and draw up a holy decree to Heshute Khan, asking him to dedicate this place to the crown prince's first birthday. ”
Yang Qing said to the female officer beside him.
The female officer hurried to convey the meaning of the couple.
"That's pretty much it!"
The Empress said with satisfaction.
Yang Qing glanced at her speechlessly.
But this is just a trivial matter, Gu Shi Khan does not really rule Kangzang effectively, it is also done through Tusi, he will not really care about these Tusi life or death, in fact, the latter does not really listen to him, his core ruling area is Tibet and Qinghai, Kangzang is just dependent. Zhang Xianzhong had already built a mansion in Kangding, and there was also a chain bridge over the Dadu River, if he was just a simple conquest and forced those Tusi to break away from the control of the Heshute Ministry, it would not be a difficult task. After all, Gu Shi Khan is the protector of the Potala Palace, but in terms of interests, they must be friendly with Zhang Xianzhong, after all, the goods of Sichuan are indispensable to them.
It is estimated that Zhang Xianzhong sent a brigade of cavalry, with the supply of land transportation, to carry out an armed parade from Kangding to Qamdo, which would be able to meet the requirements of Her Majesty the Empress.
Gu Shi Khan didn't care.
He sent troops from Lhasa to Qamdo, which was farther than Zhang Xianzhong sent troops from Kangding to Qamdo.
And this area was originally the Ming Dynasty's Duogandu Command Envoy, he was just the Empress Confusing's Xuanxuan Envoy and Uszangdu Commander, ruling both Uszang and Duogan Command Envoys. Now the imperial court wants to take out a part of the Duogandu Command Envoy that he is also in charge of, and set up a separate Xikang Command Envoy, so of course he is not qualified to interfere.
In other words, he is not even a vassal.
He's just a toast-like herald.
As for his Great Khan of the Heshuo Special Department, that cannot be regarded as a title in the Ming Dynasty, but only a title given to the leader of a nomadic tribe, ceremoniously according to the king of the county. At this time, there were a bunch of sweats in various Mongolian departments, and Yang Qing also made an ingenious distinction between small khans, according to the standard of the duke in etiquette, there have been hundreds of large and small khans in the Ming Dynasty so far. Moreover, these khans have their own demarcated pastoral areas, and no one is allowed to cross the border to graze, otherwise the khan who has crossed the border can appeal to the imperial court, and the imperial court will administer justice to him.
Heshute Khan was just one of the hundreds of great and small khans.
In this way, Kangzang can be included in the direct area of the imperial court, and the area from Kangding to Qamdo can barely immigrate, and it is mandatory to engage in some Huangzhuang to grow potatoes in the past. It is not possible to have potatoes in that place, and the climate can only grow potatoes, as long as there are potatoes to plant, those Huangzhuang militia can easily solve the toast.
This can also be regarded as a perfect end to Zhang Xianzhong's past.
Or maybe it's too cheap for him.
Li Zicheng did a good job of recovering the northern capital for the imperial court, and expanded thousands of miles of land in the Western Regions, and also opened up a lot in Qinghai, so it was too simple for Zhang Xianzhong to take a Kangding Mansion to deal with the imperial court. If he gets a Xikang Province, it will be enough to atone for his past crimes and clear his past crimes, especially since he has killed so many vassal kings, as the Empress of the Ming Dynasty, it is indeed easy to provoke criticism if he is easily let go like this. But if you can add a province to the imperial court, then you can block the mouths of the people, in fact, the gentry have been whitewashing this old bandit all these years. The deaths of the King of Shu and the King of Chu have all turned into misfortunes in chaos, and then Zhang Xianzhong still blames himself for being guilty, and buries them well......
It's like it's true.
It is said that in order to retain Zhang Xianzhong, the ideal country of the landlord's old wealth, the gentry spared no effort to slap Yang Qing in the face with facts.
In their opinion, the better Zhang Xianzhong's development is, the more it proves that Yang Qing's success is not the success of system reform, Zhang Xianzhong has not reformed anything, and even the tax exemption system for meritorious fame has continued, but people are still creating a prosperous era. Therefore, those who think that the reform of the protectorate of the country, the collection of gentry taxes, and especially the establishment of the Huangzhuang system to equalize the land are wrong to make the Ming Dynasty prosperous today! The evidence is that Zhang Xianzhong did not do this and achieved prosperity, Yang Qing believes that it was the exploitation of the gentry that caused the people of the Ming Dynasty to live poorly, which is also wrong! Look at Zhang Xianzhong, who did not interfere with the gentry in collecting rent, and as a result, the people of Sichuan still lived very well, and they still did not starve to death.
Therefore, the prosperity is not because of reform, it can only be said that Yang Qing is lucky.
The natural disaster has passed.
In the past, the people's poor livelihood was a natural disaster, not because of the gentry problem, and now the prosperity is only the inevitable result of natural disasters in the past, and it is also not the result of Yang Qing's reform, he just promoted sweet potatoes, introduced guano, and knew that corn was planted.
Definitely not because he divided the land.
In this way, the Lich King has gone from being a rogue, who was originally hated by the gentry of Jiangnan, to a good person after nearly ten years of whitewashing.
Virtuous Minister.
Absolute virtuous minister.
Definitely not better than the tolerance of the protectorate.
If Zhang Xianzhong governs the country, maybe it will be better than the protector of the country!
