Dolgon was unable to level the mountains in a short time, and he could only hope that Hauge would know the truth of the cold lips and teeth, and would agree to his request and borrow troops to help him put down the rebellion.

If the Jin army can attack Shanxi from the west, Jiang Xiang's rebels will fall into a situation of being surrounded on all sides, and now Jiang Xiang's main forces are fighting against him, Haoge suddenly intervenes in the war, and he can kill the rebels by mistake and break into the hinterland of Shanxi.

At the end of September, after Fan Wencheng got Dolgon's instructions, he led more than 100 people from Beijing to the south, they galloped all the way, changing horses along the way, and the water cannons were grinded out of the inner thighs of Fan Daren, and it took only ten days to reach Tongguan.

Fan Wencheng was anxious, but Jin Guo was not in a hurry, and the Tong Pass guard informed Tang Tong to Chang'an slowly, and after half a month, Fan Wencheng was put into the Guanzhong.

On October 11, on the official road from Tongguan to Chang'an, a team slowly moved forward, and it was Fan Wencheng and his party.

The incident in Shanxi, Jin Guo also received the news, which caused the Jin Kingdom to shake.

The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, it can be said that it is the mood of the Jin country at this time.

The Jin State is different from the Qing Dynasty, the emperor Hauge does not have the same authority as Dolgon, and the power of the Manchus is not strong enough, and the Jin State is more like Haoge, Wu Sangui, Meng Qiaofang, Han Chaoxuan, and Sun Kewang, these forces are combined to live together.

The current Jin Kingdom is like a good place to manage Guanzhong, first recovering its own strength, but the external situation makes them unable to worry.

In the middle of the year, Dolgon contacted the Jin State and asked the Jin army to go out of Hanzhong to attack Huguang with the Qing army, but the Jin State did not agree.

In the past two years, Jin Guo has been tossing too hard, and the family funds he saved before have long been exhausted, so Haoge naturally did not agree to Dolgon's invitation.

In fact, after Haoge lost Sichuan, he had already figured out that the situation in the world has developed to the present, and it is best for the three kingdoms to truce, divide the territory for a hundred years, and everyone will have their own way, so take a breath first.

He thought so, mainly because he saw that it was difficult for the Jin Kingdom to have a hope of dominating the world, since he couldn't dominate the world, what else was there to toss? He naturally retreated to the next best thing, did not want to fight again, and sought to divide one side.

The Song, Jin, and Western Xia coexisted for more than a hundred years, and the current situation is similar, and it is inevitable that Haoge will have this idea.

It's just that he thinks so, but Qing doesn't think so, but Dolgon's ambition is not dead, and he always wants to do something big, and even the Jin country can't stop.

In the middle of the year, Dolgon sent an envoy to invite the Jin State to send troops, but the Jin government and the opposition have always opposed it.

Now Dolgon really got all the benefits, but his own interior exploded, and now he came to ask for help from the Jin Kingdom.

Haoge was very annoyed by this, as soon as he heard that Fan Wencheng had arrived in Tongguan again, he had a bad premonition in his heart, and he always felt that he would be cheated again.

The trouble caused by Dolgon himself should be borne by Dolgon and Qingguo themselves, why should he find Jin Guo to wipe his ass, Hauge is very reluctant to participate in this matter.

It's just that if he is three points today, he must maintain the balance of the situation, although he has 10,000 sentences in his heart, but after hesitating for a few days, he still asked the Ministry of Rites to send a director to Tongguan to pick up Fan Wencheng and his party.

Fan Wencheng waited in Tongguan for a few days, and his mouth was full of bubbles, before waiting for Shen Wenhua, the head of the Jin Guoli Department who came to greet him, and the latter was not in a hurry, and while playing slowly, he introduced Fan Wencheng to Guanzhong customs.

The political structure of the Jin State was like a group of gate lords or feudal lords ruling together with the monarch, because the Han gentry overwhelmed the Manchurian aristocracy, so the development of Guanzhong, after six years of recovery, was far better than that under the Qing court.

Because the Qing court was controlled by the Manchurian aristocracy and the power was concentrated in the hands of Dolgon, it could levy forced labor and levy taxes at will, but because the Han gentry were powerful, the gentry in order to protect the interests of themselves and their hometown, the Jin court could not arbitrarily raise taxes, and how much to collect had to be discussed with the Han gentry.

To a certain extent, this weakened the national strength of the Jin State, but from one aspect, it made Guanzhong quickly regain its vitality.

Jin Guo has been fighting continuously for nearly two years, the treasury is empty, and most of the army directly under Haoge has been reimbursed, but it has not affected the development of the people, especially after Jin Guo re-operated Hexi, Chang'an gradually prospered.

Under the influence of the Ming Dynasty in the south, many workshops also appeared on the periphery of Chang'an, producing cotton cloth and other materials for trade with the Western Regions.

The big clans and merchants in Guanzhong originally obtained the goods of Jiangnan and Huguang through smuggling or other channels, and then resold them to the Western Regions and Mongolia, but because of the war, they soon found that reselling them was more profitable than making them themselves.

Jinguo's operation of Hexi has brought a certain development to Jinguo's commerce, and gradually formed a trade circle with Guanzhong as the core.

Of course, the main ones who obtained the benefits were the Han gentry in Guanzhong, and the Jin State did not benefit much because of the lack of government authority, the slow pace of centralization, and the lack of strict tax laws.

After the First World War in Sichuan, most of the troops directly under Haoge were finished, and the remaining troops of the Jin State were all troops of various generals, such as Wu Sangui's tens of thousands of people, as well as Meng Qiaofang's people, and other powerful controlled troops, all of which were first under the orders of these Han gentry.

Haoge doesn't have enough military power, so he naturally doesn't speak hard, and the political pattern of the Jin State is a bit like returning to the politics of the gate valve during the two Jin and Southern Dynasties.

Last year, Sun Kewang held Hexi, and after the Jin and Qing forces defeated Zungar, the trade between the Jin and the Western Regions became more frequent.

Although the Manchus nominally controlled Mobei, because the areas under the rule of the Manchus were eroded, commerce was not developed enough, and handicrafts were scarce.

Because the handicraft industry of the Jin State has been restored to a certain extent, although Mobei belongs to the Manchu Qing, there are more Mongols there than the Jin State, because the Jin State has what they want, while the Manchu Qing Dynasty does not.

It is the Eight Great Imperial Merchants, and half of the goods traded with the Mongols in Zhangjiakou also came from the Jin State.

The Jin State was established in Chang'an for six years, and now Chang'an has become the economic, cultural and political prosperity of Guanzhong.

In order to also get a piece of the pie, Haoge set up two cities in the city, the east and the west, standardized trade, strengthened the taxation of the Jin country, and moved many shops to the two cities, so that the surrounding merchants came to Chang'an to do business, and even the Rakshasa country, the Rumi country, and the Persians came to Chang'an.

The Rakshasa state, that is, the Russians, whose vanguard had already crossed the Ural Mountains and established a stronghold in Tyumen.

After the remnants of Dzungar broke through their blockade and moved west to the banks of the Volga River, the Mongols there increased greatly, which made Russia feel threatened, and what worried them even more was the eastern power that could defeat Dzungar, so the Russians took the initiative to send people to Chang'an, obviously for trade, but actually for spying.

The Rumi State is the Ottoman Turkish Empire that dominates Europe, Asia and Africa, and after the fall of the Timurid Empire, he was easily connected with the Ming Dynasty and was called the Rumi State by the Ming Dynasty.

According to historical records, the Ottomans sent envoys to Ming five times, and the maximum number reached more than 90 people.

Before the rise of the West, China, India, the Ottomans, Persia, and North Africa had formed a huge trade network. At that time, this place was the center of the world, and China was the center of the center, the most critical link in the entire trade network, and the starting point.

Now that the West is involved, the original trade network has been damaged and torn apart, and it used to be the Arabs who crisscrossed the sea and controlled the trade routes with China and India, but now it has become the Westerners who control the sea, and the Ottomans have no maritime trade routes with China, so they find the gold country from the land.

Persia, on the other hand, was the Safavid dynasty in Iran, which also wanted to resume trade.

Among the three kingdoms, the Ottomans were the most difficult, Safi and Russia were his mortal enemies, but he didn't expect them to be able to cross such a long distance and come to Chang'an City.

The arrival of these three kingdoms heralded a signal that the long-interrupted Silk Road seemed likely to be restored, which further promoted the prosperity of Chang'an.

A large number of shops moved into Chang'an, handicraft workshops began to emerge, the old houses in the city were demolished in pieces, the new residences of the gentry sprung up, and the Hu people from the Western Regions could be seen everywhere, and Chang'an was developing at a speed within reach.

Originally, if the Jin State continued to operate like this, there would inevitably be a feudal action, but I didn't want Dolgon to be a-stirring stick, and he wanted to drag the Jin State into the quagmire of the war against the Ming Dynasty.

"That's the caravan of the Zhongyuzi Khanate, they are in the west of Yarkand, the last time Lord Fan came to Chang'an, he hadn't seen so many Hu people in the Western Regions!" Shen Wenhua pointed to a camel team in the distance and said.

Zhongyuz was also a branch of the Kazakh Khanate, which was still to the west of the Yarkand Khanate, and was currently in disarray and divided into several small khanates.

In a big battle last year, the Jin State successfully held Hexi, and after the news spread, the ensuing impact was that the Hu merchants in the Western Regions knew that the Jin State had reopened the trade route, and they drove camel caravans one after another.

Fan Wencheng replied casually, where did he have the heart to have anything to do with the Hu merchants of the Western Regions, he just wanted to see Haoge as soon as possible now.

On the way to Chang'an, this Shen Wenhua just said that he didn't play all the way, and now that it has been delayed for so many days, Fan Wencheng couldn't help it, and asked anxiously, "Lord Shen, I don't know when the emperor of your country will meet me?" ”
