Upon hearing this, Ozirtu couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Uncle Khan, will you be able to pacify Qinghai-Tibet soon?" ”

Gushi Khan's ability is obvious to all, although it cannot be said that he is invincible, but his ability to lead troops to fight is indeed very strong, and therefore, firmly occupy the position of the leader of the alliance of Oirat Mongolia, and the lama named "great power teacher", and the northern Mongolia does not dare to attack again.

But what Ozirtu didn't expect was that Gushi Khan shook his head and said: "I can't take away the elite of the tribe when I go to Qinghai-Tibet." The situation in Qinghai-Tibet is complicated, and the terrain is even more complicated, so I am not sure what the final battle will be and how long it will take. ”

"Then ......" Ozirtu couldn't figure it out when he heard it, in that case, why did you say that just now?

Gushi Khan seemed to know his inner thoughts, and said with a smile: "What I am referring to is the Ming Empire!" Emperor Ming can let you learn the law of the new army, supply you with heavy weapons of the military, if there is anything, you go to ask Emperor Ming, he will definitely make decisions for you, understand? ”

Hearing this, Ozirtu couldn't help but suddenly realize. remembered that after he arrived in Beijing, he was cordially received by the Ming Emperor, and he was allowed to train with the new army, and taught himself all the methods of training in the army one by one, and even the militaristic heavy weapons that he had just built were the first to sell to himself......

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but want to pat his thigh, and secretly said in his heart: Yes! I was confused for a while, why did I forget the Ming Emperor! He is younger than himself, and if he has the Ming Emperor as his backer in this life, even if Shu Khan really can't come back, then there is no problem!

Seeing his happy expression, Gu Shihan sighed slightly in his heart. Although Ming Guo can be found to be the backstage, if Ming Guo makes any requests, he will not be allowed to refuse.

But if you don't use Mingguo as a backstage, there are also difficulties, and many problems cannot be solved. The strength of the Oirat Mongols is so much, the Ming State is strong, and naturally there is only the share of submission, otherwise if it is an enemy of the Ming State, the Oirat Mongols are afraid that under the eyes of Tsarist Russia, Northern Mongolia and the Ming State, it is possible to exterminate the clan.

Although he thought so in his heart, Gushi Khan would not tell Ozirtu. Then he began to arrange the expedition. The rest of the Oirat Mongol tribes were ordered to hold a general meeting, and each of them had to send troops, especially the Dzungar tribe, and they were allocated more troops. After all this was arranged, he handed over the throne of Khan, and then led the army away.

One thing he didn't expect was that the northern Mongolians, that is, the Khalkha tribe, soon learned the news that Gushi Khan had sent troops. These two tribes were originally feuding, and later fought to the death because of religious beliefs. Before Gushi Khan, it had always been the northern Mongols who had the upper hand. It was only later that Gushi Khan was suppressed after his birth, and peace was maintained for many years.

Now, Gushi Khan, who made them afraid, left, and they also guessed what Gushi Khan was probably going to do when he sent troops to Qinghai-Tibet, and they immediately had various ideas.

Before you know it, a storm on the grassland is brewing.

Regarding the things on the grassland, although Emperor Chongzhen has a chat group, because he did not add people from these two major tribes, the news is lagging behind, and he has not yet known at this time. But even if he knew, he wouldn't bother at this time. Because his attention has been diverted by other things.

Since the last time Zheng Zhilong told the war of the Wa Kingdom, Emperor Chongzhen asked Liu Xingzuo, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, to arrange a Jinyi Wei to go to the Wa Kingdom, whose name was Liang Zhen, who was also in the chat group. No, a message was just sent back.

"Your Majesty, in the Great War of the Wakuni Kingdom, the Tokugawa shogunate sent a crusading army, which was unexpectedly defeated, and now most of the Oshima island of Kyushu has been occupied by Toyotomi Kunimatsu. The Tokugawa shogunate issued a strict order and was gathering troops to prepare for another suppression in Kyushu. ”

Emperor Chongzhen was a little surprised, so he replied and asked, "Didn't the Tokugawa shogunate already know that there were 1,000 Manchus fighting for Toyotomi Kunimatsu?" Could it be that the army sent this time was defeated by the Manchus without precautions? ”

"Your Majesty, according to the information heard by my subordinates, the Tokugawa shogunate has already taken precautions. At the beginning of the war, it was indeed because of precautions, when the Manchu army raided, it was surrounded by three times the strength of the Tokugawa shogunate's army, and it did not break the Tokugawa shogunate's military formation! ”

Liang Zhen didn't dare to say half of it, and immediately continued: "But just when the two armies were at a stalemate, behind the Tokugawa shogunate army, another army suddenly came out. Because of the large number of people and the huge momentum, the Tokugawa shogunate army was crushed at once! ”

"This army is actually the people of the Wa Kingdom on the island of Kyushu, their sect of Xinxiyi was suppressed by the Tokugawa Shogunate army, and I don't know when they colluded with Toyotomi Kunimatsu, and suddenly killed the Tokugawa Shogunate army by surprise and was defeated!"

In the original history, with the arrival of the Portuguese and the Spaniards in the Wa Kingdom, Catholicism began to spread in the Wa Kingdom. By the eighties of the sixteenth century, there were more than 200 churches and about 150,000 worshippers from Mino in the east to Satsuma in the west, which put the Tokugawa shogunate under pressure.

Tokugawa Ieyasu was very dissatisfied with the Catholic Church's promotion of God's omnipotence and thus diluted the authority of secular lords, and later saw that many Kyushu princes obtained a large number of materials and weapons through trade with Western and Portuguese countries, coupled with the lobbying of Protestantism, that is, England and the Netherlands, he believed that if it was left unchecked, it would shake the foundation of the shogunate's rule, and it happened at this time that the famous "Okamoto Daihachi Incident" occurred, so Tokugawa Ieyasu issued a ban and suppressed Catholicism.

As a result, in 1637, a large-scale Shimabara War broke out in Kyushu. The Catholic army numbered about 30,000, and the Tokugawa shogunate failed to suppress it twice in a row, and later dispatched more than 100,000 troops to suppress the Shimabara Rebellion.

Because of the butterfly effect, the Manchu Qing Dynasty was involved in the Wa Kingdom, and Toyotomi Kunimatsu began the War of Restoration, and the Catholic army of the Shimabara Rebellion was able to appear in advance and formed an alliance with Toyotomi Kunimatsu. Originally, the Tokugawa shogunate was about to form a policy of closing the country to the country, but it was delayed because of the war on Kyushu Island. Today's Wa Kingdom has once again entered an era of war.

When Emperor Chongzhen saw the news, he frowned. There is one thing that he does not want to see, that is, the Manchus and Xiyi collude together. But now in the Wa Kingdom, the Manchus and Xiyi are already in the same trench. If the Xiyi in the Catholic army saw the strength of the Manchus and vigorously supported the Manchus in exchange for Catholicism, it would probably bring great resistance to their own destruction of the Manchus.

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen understood that the strategy of driving the tiger and devouring the wolf was not so easy to play. One is not good, although there is no wolf, but it has grown stronger, and the next tiger will be much more troublesome.

Thinking so, he asked Liang Zhendao, "What is the strength of the Tokugawa shogunate?" What news is circulating about the war on Kyushu Island? ”

Liang Zhen was slightly stunned when he saw this question, but then he understood what the emperor wanted to know, so he immediately replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the strength of the Tokugawa Shogunate should not be underestimated, although the Battle of Kyushu was defeated, it did not hurt the fundamentals, and now it is mobilizing new daimyo to prepare to go to Kyushu Island again." At least on the Edo side, most people don't think that Toyotomi Kunimatsu can turn the tables. There was only a fear that the Manchus would increase their forces to help Toyotomi Kunimatsu, so the Tokugawa shogunate had decided to send sailors to the Korean Strait to inspect and cut off the possibility of the Manchus reinforcing Toyotomi Kunimatsu. ”

Seeing this news, Emperor Chongzhen agreed in his heart that if the Manchu Qing continued to increase the number of troops in the Wa Kingdom, the Tokugawa shogunate would be in great trouble. However, the Korean Strait was very large, and the sailors of the Tokugawa shogunate did not have a foothold in Kyushu, so it was impossible to completely cut off the connection between Korea and Kyushu Island. Not to mention the Manchu reinforcements, the Manchu Qing wanted to obtain food and other materials from Kyushu, which would inevitably cause the Manchu generals on Kyushu Island to demand the opening of the Korean Strait.

At present, I will lag behind in understanding the intelligence of the Japanese Kingdom, and I will not be able to grasp the core secrets. After all, Liang Zhen only stayed in Edo to inquire about the news, although there were channels left by Zheng Zhilong, the information that might be heard was really limited. It seems that the situation on the side of the Japanese country still has to be paid attention to and predicted.

Thinking so, when he was about to contact Liaodong to discuss matters related to the Wa Kingdom, Wu Daji, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly sent a private chat and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen has returned to Seoul, and along the way, he found that the Manchu Qing Dynasty was vigorously farming. Especially in the vicinity of Seoul, the water conservancy facilities were much better than before, and the slave chief Dolgon ordered the officials to take charge of a specific piece of farmland, and even personally inspected it once in a while, and severely punished the officials who did not do their best, and those who did their best were immediately rewarded. According to Weichen's estimates, after this year's grain harvest, the Manchus, at least these Manchus in North Korea, will not have to worry about grain. ”

Emperor Chongzhen was shocked when he saw it, all along, he lacked control over the side of Dolgon in Korea, and his focus was on the side of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in Liaodong. Although he had estimated, he still did not expect that Dorgon would attach so much importance to agriculture. But this matter, thinking about it now, doesn't seem to be strange. After all, whether it was Liaodong or Korea, all the places occupied by the Manchus were affected by grain, which seriously restricted the strength of the Manchus. The slave chieftain, who has a little knowledge, will definitely seriously solve the food problem.

Not only on the Korean side, but also on the Liaodong side, Emperor Chongzhen knew it clearly. To the north of Shenyang, the grain fields reclaimed by the Manchu Qing Dynasty last year are growing grain again this year, and without the Horqin people as the internal counterparts to carry out sabotage, it is no longer realistic for the Ming Dynasty to send troops to bypass Liaoyang, Shenyang and other places to carry out sabotage.

Thinking of the few messages he had just received, Emperor Chongzhen felt that the time to solve the Manchu Qing Dynasty in Liaodong had to be advanced, otherwise once the grain in North Korea was harvested, it would bring some trouble to the Ming Dynasty.

Thinking so, he immediately convened a joint meeting of the Ming Dynasty, and pulled Sun Chengzong, Lu Xiangsheng, Cao Bianjiao, Cao Huachun, Wen Tiren, Liu Xingzuo, Hong Chengchou and other agents or himself into the temporary group, announced the latest information, and finally said: "What do you think? ”

"Your Majesty, General Cao Shi is willing to lead the new army to conquer Liaoyang, defeat Shenyang, and destroy the Manchu Dynasty." Gao Yingyuan's representative Cao Bianjiao was the first to respond.

Wei Mulan said almost at the same time: "Lu Zhongcheng thinks that the Manchu Qing Dynasty in Liaodong is already weak, and it is time to recover Liaodong. On the Korean side, Phi Dao was to be reused, and the sailors kept attacking, harassing the Manchus in North Korea and destroying those grain fields. ”

Only the two of them replied at the first time, and the others did not speak, and when Emperor Chongzhen saw it, he asked Liu Wang's family: "Sun Qing's side, how are the material reserves?" ”

In the Liaodong battlefield, the military was mainly led by Lu Xiangsheng, and the logistics were unified by Sun Chengzong. The two of them, one on the front line and the other on the front line of Ningjin in the rear. Of course, at this time, the materials in Liaodong were already too far away on the Ningjin line, and they had all been transported directly to Gaizhou by sea for hoarding, and even some of them had been transported to Haizhou.

Sun Chengzong was named, and immediately told the details of the hoarding of materials. After nearly a year of preparation, a batch of grain was recently looted from the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the supplies were abundant.

After Emperor Chongzhen learned the details, he announced in the temporary group: "I have decided that at the beginning of next month, the imperial driver will personally conquer Liaodong and recover Liaodong in one fell swoop!" ”

As soon as he heard this, Wen Tiren hurriedly said: "Now that the battlefield of Liaodong is dominated by Sun Ge Lao and Lu Zhongcheng, it is not difficult to recover Liaodong. If Your Majesty's personal expedition is carried out, if it doesn't go well, it will be a good idea for me and for Your Majesty's prestige ......."

You don't have to listen to it to know that Shousuke still wants to advise. Emperor Chongzhen immediately interrupted: "Wen Qing wants me to be a son of heaven who has no promises? ”

"Weichen doesn't dare!" When Wen Tiren saw it, he hurriedly replied, "Weichen is just worried, after all, Your Majesty is the son of the great tomorrow, and he will move his whole body ......."

"Enough!" When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he directly interrupted, "I have made up my mind, what Wen Qing wants to do is to check and fill in the gaps for me, and do my best to recover Liaodong, and there must be no mistakes, understand?" ”

When Wen Tiren saw it, he sighed in his heart, knowing that the nine cows couldn't pull back the emperor, so he had to reply: "Weichen obeys the order!" ”

He was the most reluctant to see Emperor Chongzhen have an accident, because his position as the first assistant was specially promoted by Emperor Chongzhen. Without the support of the emperor, so many innovations he made would inevitably attract a counterattack from those who had lost their interests. Not to mention anything else, just by being ordered by the emperor to return to Jiangnan Zhou Yanru, it is likely that he will exert force to replace his position. According to previous news, Zhou Yanru was very close to the Fushe in the south of the Yangtze River, and very close to the big salt merchants there, and he had a financial foundation and a network base, which should not be underestimated.

Emperor Chongzhen saw that Wen Tiren no longer objected, so he said again: "This battle can no longer give the Liaodong Manchus any chance, so I have decided to strike a thunderbolt and destroy the Liaodong Manchus!" ”
