Zhou Lang of Nanjing ascended to the throne of emperor, but Jiaqing of Beijing left the Forbidden City.

He went to the Mulan paddock.

In terms of internal affairs, with the assistance of his master Zhu Qi and others, Jiaqing was also more rigorous and meticulous than his father, and finally stabilized the situation, and the good news of the elimination of the White Lotus Sect began to come from the local government. The policy of forming a village to defend itself and encouraging group training has had an effect, and the flow of the White Lotus Sect bandits has been curbed. The officers and soldiers were in hot pursuit, and the White Lotus Sect could no longer coerce the displaced people, and the more they fought, the fewer they fought.

Because of the great trouble of his henchmen, Zhou Lang's traitor is getting bigger and bigger, and I heard that the country was founded in Nanjing, and the country name is called Da Zhou. It's really no heel.

In fact, where did the Manchus have any heels.

The change of imperial power in the Central Plains Dynasty all paid attention to a inheritance, and it was rare to establish oneself as a king in ancient times. The establishment of the Qin Dynasty was based on the Qin State divided by Zhou Tianzi. The Han Dynasty was also because Liu Bang was once named the king of Han by Xiang Yu in the name of King Huai of Chu. This was still the case in the Three Kingdoms era, and the Wei state was because Cao Cao had been named the king of Wei by Emperor Xian of Han during his lifetime; The name of Shu is actually Han, and later generations are called Shu Han, Liu Bei considers himself to be the Han family of Xingfu, and Liu Xiu established the Eastern Han Dynasty, and he considers himself orthodox; The state of Wu is also because Cao Cao canonized Sun Quan's Marquis of Wu through Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty. Sima Yan usurped the throne and established the Western Jin Dynasty, also because his father got the title of King of Jin. After that, the five chaos were unified, and Emperor Wen of Sui was unified, and Emperor Wen of Sui came from his own title of Suiguo. After the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan was also the Duke of Tang who was canonized by the Sui Dynasty. Zhao Kuangyin is the envoy of the Songzhou Festival.

Until the Yuan Dynasty broke off this inheritance, the Mongols of the Yuan Dynasty were the font names they picked from the Book of Changes, the Yuan character of Dazai Qianyuan.

The Ming Dynasty took over this inheritance again, and the Ming Dynasty nominally inherited the name of the Ming King, and he refused to stand on his own.

During the Qing Dynasty, the inheritance broke again, and Nurhachi established the Houjin, and when it came to the time of Huang Taiji, it was renamed the Great Qing.

Then to Zhou Lang, it is really far-fetched and can't be related, he was nominally the generalissimo of the auxiliary country of the South Road canonized by Chen Zhouquan before, which word is suitable for being the name of the country, Nanguo? Lu Guo? The discussion among the ministers was very intense, and even from the place name of Zhou Lang to find the inheritance, Zhou Lang started in Fengshan County, and some people even put forward the country name "Dafeng". Fujianese people said that although the saint raised troops in Fengshan, but it was to establish a foundation in Fujian, and the ancient country of Fujian was called "Fujian", so the Fujian people supported the founding of the country "Da Min", but the Cantonese people did not do it, saying that it was better to call it "Da Yue", at least Yue Guo was also the orthodox country name canonized by Zhou Tianzi. Zhejiang people also support "Da Yue", after all, the ancient country of Yue is in Zhejiang. Jiangsu people were not convinced, saying that "Great Wu" was also an ancient country, and Zhu Yuanzhang also called himself the king of Wu.

Ministers and scholars from all over the country competed with each other, and everyone quoted scriptures and classics in an attempt to make their hometown a new dynasty name.

Zhou Lang simply didn't use any of them, just used "Da Zhou", because his surname was Zhou, and he didn't want to climb the inheritance, and he didn't agree with this kind of cultural concept of self-humility. He named his business whatever he thought of.

After all, Zhou is also an ancient country, and the emperor has proposed it, so no one fights for it, so the name of the Great Zhou is set.

Hearing this national name, the Manchu ministers ridiculed.

Jiaqing couldn't laugh and ran to the Mulan paddock.

The purpose is not to distract people, but to follow Kangxi's example to hold an autumn hunt, and to re-inspire the bravery of the children of the Eight Banners is on the one hand, and the most important thing is to contact foreign vassals, Jiaqing now needs the help of these herdsmen who are still fierce, and North Korea also needs to be deterred, so as not to make them disobedient. The fact that the Korean government and the opposition secretly used the name of Chongzhen is just not mentioned, not that they don't know.

The autumn wind was fierce, and Zhu Jue personally stared at the 30,000 musket battalions that had been built, all of which were transferred to the Mulan paddock.

They were armed with arquebuses and infantry guns, and their military appearance was also formidable.

Under various orders, the pace is the same, and the guns are fired, which is quite spectacular.

The Korean and Mongolian princes who were present also expressed their might.

There were also some blonde guys present, this is a group of Russian envoys, and inviting these people to come is also to deter them.

Because these people actually visited the Qing Dynasty and expressed their willingness to provide arms aid and hope to obtain trade privileges. Moreover, they wanted the Qing to recognize their overall sovereignty over the Kazakh Khanate in Central Asia, on the grounds that after the Qing Dynasty pacified Dzungaria in 1755, the Kazakh Great Khan Abulai annexed to the Qing Dynasty in 1757, and Qianlong was officially crowned Khan in 1771, and Abulai swore allegiance to the Russian Empire in Orenburg in 1739 and received a certificate. Therefore, compared to the Qing Dynasty, the Great Russian Empire had more reason to exercise sovereignty over the Kazakh Khanate.

Jiaqing and the courtiers all thought that these Russians, the aid was fake, the robbery while the fire was real, and the Kazakhs were insignificant, but the unauthorized abandonment of the vassal would chill the subject country and make Russia gain an inch, so everyone felt that they should not show weakness at this time, but should show strength. Let the Russians also look at the firearms of the Qing Dynasty, let them know that the Qing Dynasty does not need their assistance, they have what they have, and what they don't have, the Qing Dynasty also has. Instead, we can be gracious to them, reduce a little indifferent tariffs, and expand Kyakhta trade.

So this autumn hunt, the Russians were also invited. After watching the firearms drill, the Korean and Mongolian princes of the foreign vassal all called Daqing mighty, but the Russians disdained it and whispered in private. Jiaqing was very dissatisfied, and asked the interpreter to ask the Russians what they thought of the Qing Dynasty firearms.

As a result, the Russians said that these firearms were eliminated in Europe a hundred years ago. They strongly suggested that Jiaqing be allowed to watch their firearms drill, but Jiaqing refused to watch.

The Russians made Jiaqing feel very bad, but in fact, after arriving at the Mulan paddock, he was not in a good mood.

He thought that the Mulan paddock would be a spectacular place with blue sky and white clouds and grass, and he looked through Kangxi's living notes, which were always full of praise for autumn hunting, describing the ancient trees here towering to the sky, and the tigers and athletes hunting tigers and bears. But Jiaqing took tens of thousands of people to fight for a day, and he hit a few roe deer, not even a few larger roe deer.

Because the current Mulan enclosure is not the Mulan enclosure of the Kangxi period, or even the Mulan enclosure of Qianlong's early years, when Qianlong was hunting, you can still fight tigers, black bears and other fierce beasts here, foxes, elk, roe deer, etc.

After Ke Jiaqing arrived, he saw that the wooden fence around the paddock was crooked, and the gaps were everywhere. There were still any towering ancient trees, and all that remained in the paddock were the stumps of the fell, like glaring scars poking at the ground. The ground was crisscrossed with ruts of the carts transporting wood, and in some places the roads were bare because of the excessive number of vehicles, and there was no grass left. Everywhere there were shacks built by the wood thieves, and there were often burning branches on the ground, some of which were still emitting faint green smoke, and the poachers did not stop until he decided to hunt for the autumn.

Jiaqing couldn't help but think of the time of illegal logging outside the customs that the ministers of Liaodong reported from time to time, and couldn't help but sigh: "The autumn paddock for more than 100 years is no different from the private wood factories in Shengjing and Gaoligou. "The royal hunting ground has become a timber production area where timber thieves run rampant.

Jiaqing would not associate these things with the increasingly prosperous private economy in the late Qianlong period, he only hated the bad government, who gave these guards the paddock the courage to collude with the poachers, and actually made the Mulan paddock like this.

He couldn't help but connect, not only the Mulan paddock, isn't it the whole world like this now. Although all this can be blamed on Heshen, it can be said that it is caused by Heshen's corruption. Ke Jiaqing knows in his heart that the root of all this, where can He Shen do it, in the final analysis, it is his father who is happy and indulges in pleasure.

But his father died, and he also fell into the reputation of a prosperous emperor, but he Jiaqing had to face the situation that the country would fall. Whether to turn the tide and be the master of the center, or to ruin the country and become the king of the country, Jiaqing himself has no certainty about this future.

Holding back his anger, on the dilapidated Mulan paddock, he completed the diplomatic activities with the foreign vassal Mongolia and Korea in a decent manner.

Next, it was to recruit troops from various countries, asking the foreign feudal Mongols to send 30,000 horsemen south to help the Qing Dynasty fight the rebellion, and asking Korea to send 20,000 musketeers to help, and there were Koreans in the early bird spearmen in history.

As for the Russians who offered to help, and were even willing to send troops directly, Jiaqing politely refused, and the Russian state is also good at using firearms, which he knows, and the Yi people seem to be good at strange and obscene skills, but I also have skilled craftsmen in the Qing Dynasty, but I have always been familiar with archery and horse riding and archery, and I have been a little negligent in firearms drills, and this weakness has been caught and used by the traitors. Now I have understood in the Qing Dynasty that archery is important, but firearms are also good at firearms.

Therefore, Jiaqing wants to recruit the Mongolian horsemen of the foreign domain, these people are much stronger than the current Eight Banners disciples bow and horse riding and archery, to put it bluntly, it is not that the traitors are powerful, but that the descendants of the unscrupulous have lost the housekeeping skills of their ancestors. Otherwise, why was the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry able to defeat the Ming Dynasty's shotgun cannon repeatedly, and finally won the world.

Jiaqing believes that with the Mongolian horsemen who are skilled in stallions and have unparalleled volleys, plus the 30,000 shotgun battalions trained by Master Zhu, they will have the strength to conquer Zhou Lang's rebels next year.

However, according to Master Zhu's strategy, if the rebel thief does not come next year, the Qing Dynasty should continue to strengthen its armament, first exterminate the White Lotus Sect bandits, and then fight a decisive battle with Zhou Lang's rebel thieves.

Master Zhu is old-fashioned, this major policy will not be wrong, it's not that the Qing Dynasty is afraid of the traitor, it's really that the Qing Dynasty lacks skills and can't fight on both sides.

After the autumn hunt ended, Jiaqing rushed back to Beijing non-stop, and after the pro-government, he really didn't have time to waste.

However, he got some good news, which was a kind of sweep away the resentment he had saved in the Mulan paddock.

The news is not the news from Jiangnan, and in the current situation, no news from Jiangnan is good news.

The news came from Sichuan Chu, Master Zhu punished corruption, appointed cadres, and created a strong logistics support system, the front-line operations became more and more smooth, and the commanders of Erle Dengbao, Delentai and others were also attentive, and finally captured the White Lotus Sect bandits Xu Tiande and Wang Sanhuai.
