Chapter 882: Death of the Country and Death of the World

Although the Great Wei defeated the Warat and used the Great Reading to deter the Western Regions, in fact, the prestige of the Wei State was not enough to be called the Heavenly Khan.

This time, it was mainly Abdullah who praised him, plus a few leaders listened to the greetings in advance, and the others followed the crowd, so they supported Gao Yihuan as the Khan of Heaven.

Gao Yihuan naturally knows this, but this title will be his, so it's okay to take it first.

With the title of Tian Khan, it is not only convenient to manage the Western Regions and meddle in the affairs of the Western Regions, but also to resist the westward expansion of the Rakshasa in the future.

In the process of the alliance, Gao Yihuan talked with the envoys of the three Yuzi during the banquet, and then summoned them separately and inquired about the Rakshasa people in detail.

The Great Yuz, the Little Yuz, and the Middle Yuz are active in the Kazakh region, and they already border the Rakshasas, and have been harassed and plundered by the Rakshasas, and they also need to pay taxes to the Rakshasas every year.

After crossing the Ural Mountains, the Rakshasas annexed all of Siberia in seventy years.

Now, the pace of their expansion has reached the Yenisai River, and even established a stronghold on the north side of Lake Baikal, and when the Great Wei unifies the Central Plains, they will definitely fight with the Rakshasa to curb the continued expansion of the Rakshasas in Asia.

At that time, as the Heavenly Khan, Gao Yihuan will have sufficient reasons to start a war with the Rakshasas, even if the Rakshasa people do not come to trouble the Great Wei, Gao Yihuan can also use the identity of the Heavenly Khan to give the younger brother a head, take the initiative to find the door, and expel the Rakshasa people from the east of the Ural Mountains.

After the alliance of the Tianshan Mountains, Gao Yihuan was revered as the Khan of Heaven by all the ministries, and the northwestern frontier of Wei was worry-free, and the trade routes were also opened.

Most of the tribes of the Western Regions were nomadic and economically backward, so Wei was able to absorb the resources of the Western Regions through trade routes to help Wei unify the Central Plains.

What materials are available in the Western Regions, not to mention cattle, sheep and horses, just the leather boots on the feet of the Wei soldiers, the leather belts on their waists and muskets, all rely on the purchased cowhides.

At the beginning of November, after the end of the Tianshan Alliance, Gao Yihuan ordered people to dig the mountain as a wall, engrave the deeds of the alliance, set up the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, and appointed Jiang Xiang and Li Benshen as the chief and deputy protectors.

At this time, it has been more than two months since the Wei army went out to the Western Regions, and the captured cattle and sheep were almost eaten by the Wei army, and it began to snow in the north, the Wei army did not prepare enough pasture, and the pressure of transporting grain and grass from Guanzhong was huge, so Gao Yihuan led the mighty squad to return to the court.

The various tribes of the Western Regions sent envoys one after another, and the caravans accompanied the army, and the prince of Yarkand, Ismayele, together with more than 100 sons of Yarkand nobles, also went to Guanzhong to receive education in Han culture.

In November, heavy snow began to fall in the north, and on the snow-covered land, the soldiers of the Wei army were like a giant dragon, trudging towards Guanzhong.

In the city of Beijing, the sky is covered with goose feathers and heavy snow, and the palace in Bauhinia City is snow-white.

Dolgon stood in the warm pavilion, looking at the snow flying outside the window, and his heart was as cold as the weather in Beijing.

More than a month ago, Dolgon was still glad that the situation in the world might take a turn for the better, and once the strategy of opening the net on three sides was successful, the Qing State would be able to continue to occupy a large area in the north.

After three or five years in this way, the Qing army was able to recover its strength, and the Ming army in the south was also trained, plus Wara, which was enough to destroy the Western Wei.

But he didn't expect that the glimmer of hope he had just grasped had not yet developed a perfect strategy, and the key side of the three-sided encirclement was discounted.

Now in terms of topography and land, Wei is backed by mountains, the rear is safe and worry-free, and it may rely on the terrain at any time to rush down and send troops to destroy the Qing Dynasty.

"Regent, what should we do about the situation at this time?" Nikan looked at Dolgon's back with a melancholy expression.

Dolroll sighed and said: "Return Huaibei to Nanming, exchange for a batch of money, grain and weapons, and prepare to withdraw to the Guanwai!" ”

The successive blows finally crushed Dolgon's ambitions, he turned around, looked at Nikan with a surprised face, and continued: "Then send an order to Geng Zhongming, let him transfer Luoyang's materials to the outside of the Guan, and the population and materials of Beizhili and Shandong should also be prepared to transfer a part of the Guanwai. In addition, he told Haoge and Zilharang to let them renovate the city of Jinzhou and prepare to defend against the Wei army. ”

After the Wei army defeated Wara, the threat from the back was lifted, and there was no need to worry about being stabbed in the back by Wara, with Gao Yihuan's reckless military temperament, the Wei army would launch an eastward crusade at any time.

With the current strength of the Qing army, Dorgon did not think that he could resist, so he finally made up his mind and planned to withdraw to Guanwai.

Previously, the appearance of the Warats gave Dolgon a glimmer of hope, and he changed his plan to withdraw from the gates, and after only a few months, he finally returned to his original track.

~~~~~~

At the end of December, as the New Year approached, all parts of Jiangnan did not seem to be worried because of the changes in the situation in the north.

In the city of Nanjing, a piece of snow white, in addition to a lot of scholars, full of melancholy talking about national affairs, Nanjing city as in previous years, the sound of firecrackers exploded again and again, the city restaurant, the teahouse is still full of passengers, from time to time there are little girls babbling singing, and the full house cheers come out.

This made many scholars shake their heads and lament, "The merchant girl doesn't know the hatred of the country, and she still sings the flowers in the backyard across the river." ”

Of course, there are many readers who don't think about this and don't take the situation to heart.

Recently, in the land south of the Yangtze River, an opinion on the current situation has suddenly spread, and it has been widely circulated among readers.

This opinion was written on an unveiling post, titled "The Difference between the Dead Country and the Dead World", which reads, "There is a dead country, and there is a dead world." Tell the difference between the dead country and the dead world? Said: The surname of Yi was changed, and it was called the death of the country. Benevolence and righteousness are full, and as for leading beasts to eat people, people will eat each other, which is called the death of the world. Those who defend the country are their kings and ministers, and those who eat meat seek them; To protect the world, the cheapness and responsibility of the husband are deaf. ”

In the late Ming Dynasty, the thinking of the scholars in the Jiangnan area was more active, and the Jiangnan gentry were not very loyal to the Ming Dynasty.

Combined with the situation at this time, it can probably be understood that the death of the country is the replacement of the feudal dynasty, and the death of the world is the destruction of the nation.

If the Manchurians call, it will be the death of the world, and everyone has the responsibility to resist, but if the Wei army calls, it will be just a dynasty change within the Han people, let the emperor and his ministers worry about it.

This kind of thinking can be said to be cross-era, and it is not good for Gao Yihuan's thousands of generations, and it can be said to be an extremely reactionary thought, but at this time, the Wei State was in a strong position, and this kind of thinking was the first to hit Zhu Cihong.

Therefore, Gao Yihuan asked Xuan Yiwei to arrest a person named Gu Yanwu, and wrote this piece of unveiling to dismantle the stage for his brother-in-law.

At this time, in the Nanjing Imperial Palace, Zhu Cihong tore a piece of paper on the imperial case to shreds, and suddenly roared loudly, "Jinyiwei, arrest this Gu Yanwu!" ”
