War!

Thousands of miles away, on the shores of the Persian Gulf. Eight thousand Jurchens, Jurchens armed to the teeth! Wanyan Wushu is the main general, and he is used under the command of Luda.

The healthy horses in the desert are even taller, more than a foot taller than the horses on the grassland. The camels in the desert are taller and bigger.

It's just that in the face of the Jurchens armed to the teeth, these tall healthy horses and tall camels also look tall.

Jurchen men, cut off the heads one by one, and go to the Yuhou who accompanied the army in exchange for the military merits registered one by one, and these military exploits are acre by acre of fertile land when they reach the land outside the pass.

That's why these Jurchens are here.

In the land of the Western Regions, Yelu Dashi 30,000 Western Liao troops surrounded Khorezm and stormed the tall city.

Liu Zhengyan's cousin Liu Zhengjun had already arrived in the Western Regions at this time, and was constantly encroaching on the west, and the Han people under his command had also become a minority, and more were people of other races.

Liu Zhengjun and Yelu Dashi sometimes joined forces to attack, and sometimes divided their troops to fight. As long as food can be raised, the army will not listen to the war.

The Turks fought again against the people of Jesus Christ. Even the Turks have begun to buy food and armaments from Ruda.

The iron armor of the Han people, transported from thousands of miles away by large ships, was sold from Ruda to the Turks to resist the crusaders of the Eastern Crusade.

Sharp knives and guns, Luda also sells, or Wu Yong sells them. Whatever the Turks wanted, Wu used to sell. As long as there is gold, and if there is not enough gold, you will want cities, prisoners of war, and slaves.

The convoy transporting the Crusaders, from Venice. The merchants of Venice, who crossed the Mediterranean, also found Wu Yong. Porcelain and silk from the East, and even armor and weapons from the East, were bought by the Venetians with gold coins, transported to the northern shores of the Mediterranean, and sold to the crusaders whose main purpose was to loot and make a fortune.

In the east, above the steppe, in the southeast of Lake Baikal, there are also great wars. After all, there are still many tribes who do not listen to orders, or disobey the yang and the yin.

The migrating tribes always seem to be lucky, lucky that they can fight or escape in this vast grassland. He was unwilling to send the heirs of the tribal khans to the city in the middle of the steppe, and he was unwilling to pay horses, cattle and sheep to the capital protectorate.

The war went on and on, with countless small wars and big wars. Yue Fei finally entered the grassland from the land of white mountains and black waters.

This grandfather-in-law may be going to fight a battle for the rest of his life.

In the land of the plateau, the Dadan people came from the north, and the Han people and the Tusi tribe came from the south. The Han Chinese, armed with a large number of muskets, were already unimpeded on the plateau.

Looking up, it is already the towering Himalayas, the never-before-seen Everest. Beyond this barrier, it is the land of Tianzhu. From then on, to the land of Tianzhu, it is no longer so far away.

The country of Dali has long been surrendered, and it does not cost a single soldier. In the south of the clouds, the scenery is different.

Outside the war.

People come and go, sea and land, busy.

On the other side of the ocean, gold was originally only obtained from the hands of local natives. Later, after all, someone found a gold mine, a lot of gold, a lot of gold.

There were ships full of gold that came back and became rich overnight. I got to the port and paid my taxes. A large number of industries were purchased, more ships were bought, and more guns and ordnance were bought. Find more people, go to sea again, go to sea again to find more gold.

The sailors of the imperial court, with ironclad soldiers and many newly appointed governors, went to the place where the land was full of gold.

A railway from Hejian City to the canal wharf in the east of the city, dozens of miles, was repaired for more than half a year. When it finally opened, the locomotive, eating black coals and spitting white smoke. Boom and scream.

After walking a few miles, he stopped, and Ling Zhen, who was already full of white hair, got out of the car, and carefully checked left and right, and repaired for a long time. The train started again, went more than ten miles, and was forced to stop again. Ling Zhen personally checked around again. While inspecting, I recorded.

The young people around him were all nervous when they listened to Ling Zhen's complaints and Ling Zhen's scolding.

The locomotive rumbled, stopped and went, and finally came to the wharf and the out-of-town simple station. Countless people along the way, running along the train, watching the excitement.

There were also people who ran after the train on horseback, but it was this horse that ran faster than the train.

Finally, another half a year passed. The locomotive on the railway, at last, is no longer stop-and-go, and can still pull many carriages, which are still full of goods.

There are still people riding healthy horses to compare the speed of this train. Jianma is still slightly better.

On this test road, the train is finally running.

Since then, the coal mines in the northern part of the Goryeo Peninsula have been busy every day. Koreans, Japanese, and even yellow slaves, black slaves, and even white slaves who have only appeared in recent years, all worked day and night in the coal mine.

The first real train track, from Hejian to Bianliang, leads directly to Hangzhou. Planning and construction have already begun.

The shipyards of the imperial court also built the first large ship powered by a steam engine. It is made of steel as the keel, but it is mainly made of wood, but the wood is wrapped in a heavy iron sheet.

An Iron King Eight, emitting white smoke, without wind and sails, can also sail rapidly. Starting with this ship, this world is close to the end of the world.

Zheng Zhi is old, and now Zheng Zhi is really old. He has white hair, but his body is quite tough. I also took the train myself, from the river to the canal wharf, and took a few round-trips.

Zheng Zhi, who was sitting on the train, closed his eyes for a while, and opened his eyes again for a while. It seems to be verifying something.

Zheng Kai also married a wife, the daughter of Li Qingzhao and Zhao Mingcheng when they were middle-aged. This is also something that was not expected.

The second master is not married, everyone is urging the second master to marry, but the second master is not married. Even Lu Meng married a wife, and the second master did not marry.

The second master can be so willful, just because he has an enlightened father. With her willfulness, with her happy.

The second master is really an official, the director of the Ministry of Development and Reform. It seems that the second master is really happy to do this, and he likes this errand very much.

In the Lingyan Pavilion, there are many people lying down, such as Seed Master Dao, Seed Master Zhong, Wang Jin, Lao Hu, Lu Junyi, etc. . .

There are also those martyrs of the battle battle with names and surnames.

Ling Zhen is old, but Zheng Zhi is still urging Ling Zhen every day, forcing Ling Zhen, and muttering electricity in his mouth.

Ling Zhen's temper also became more and more irritable, and every time he heard Zheng Zhi's chatter, when he returned to the National Academy of Sciences, he also opened his mouth to scold, scolding those young people, and the words in his mouth were also electricity.

Zheng Kai recently went on a trip to the other side of the ocean, and there is a place called Jinshan, where he stayed for a few months. appeased the indigenous tribes, began to divide the territory of the indigenous tribes, negotiated taxes, and negotiated the system.

Zheng Kai also seems to have heard some things about the indigenous tribes there who most likely migrated from the Central Plains, through a shallow frozen strait in the far north.

Zheng Kai seems to believe this statement, because the natives there are still somewhat similar to the Han people, and they look different from the people in other parts of the world. Some of the totems there are also somewhat similar to the totems of ancient China. Even the indigenous people have countries, there are dynasties. It's just that these dynasties are really a bit vulnerable.

The previous war was also stopped by Zheng Kai, and the main thing was to pacify. Demarcate some territory belonging to the locals, hoping to live in harmony and not commit any offenses in autumn.

Recently, at sea, there have been wars.

The rivers and lakes are strong, and the mountains and forests are bandits. There is no more in the country, but the sea suddenly rises at some point. Some sailors, gathered ships, occupied the islands. and did the thief on the Shanghai road.

The imperial court sailors naturally went all out to clean it up. Naturally, it is also difficult to purge it. After the Eight Steam Iron Kings came out, it was much rarer. But there are still people who do evil things at sea.

This naval battle is endless.

In the land of God Jesus, the sailors of the imperial court went on an expedition and also occupied many port islands as ports of trade. It didn't take much effort, but on the contrary, it was welcomed by some people.

The merchants of the Great Xia Dynasty also knew what these God's people needed most, and they needed ordnance and materials, so they were constantly sending them there.

The Crusades will be fought for more than a hundred years. The Great Xia Kingdom never thought of stopping the continuation of this war, on the contrary, it continued to intensify the grievances between the two sects.

Let this war be fought more fiercely, and make these God's people hate each other even more.

On the top of Mount Tai, a closed Zen platform was built.

Taoists from all over the country have rushed here, and the Taoist leaders on Longhu Mountain and the Quanzhen sect leaders who have developed in recent years have gathered here to prepare a grand sacrifice ceremony.

Sacrifice to the heavens and the earth to the ancestors of China.

This is a sacrificial ceremony organized by the imperial court. Pray for the peace of the country and the people, and pray for the prosperity of the country.

There are also ministers who say that they hope that His Majesty the Emperor Zheng Zhizhi will go in person to preside over the sacrificial ceremony.

Zheng Zhi still didn't go after all, and Zheng Zhi probably didn't want to go either. Zheng Zhi does not respect ghosts and gods.

That night, Zheng Zhi was in a dream.

Ruda's blood-red eyes, holding a huge treasure knife, roared incessantly, slashing under the knife, and rolling the heads of enemies one by one.

Shi Jin was in the iron armor, running back and forth, but he was shouting: "Brother, where are you??? ”

Zheng Zhi also shouted: "Da Lang, so-and-so is here!" ”

Luda glanced back at Zheng Zhi and shouted: "Brother, hit the horse quickly, this formation will be broken." ”

When Zheng Zhi heard this, he struggled forward to hit the horse, and when he turned around, he shouted: "Old Hu, shoot quickly!" Shoot that general! ”

When Lao Hu heard this, he hurriedly drew his bow, his muscles bulged, and he shot the feather arrow in his hand.

Zheng Zhi hurriedly looked forward, shot it, shot it down! Shot down a big official in red, and then see who that big official is?

It seems to be Gao Yu!

It seems to be Lee In-myung!

It seems to be another end-of-the-road fight!

It seems to be...

Zheng Zhi only cared about the great joy, fought his horse forward, and shouted left and right: "Brothers, rush forward, win, win!" ”

Won.

In front of him, the seed master Dao walked down from the case, walked in front of Zheng Zhi, and laughed: "Haha... Zheng Zhi, I really didn't mistake you, and the tiger general too! ”

A person suddenly walked out next to him, a person he hadn't seen for a long time, it was Tong Guan, who also laughed and said: "General Zheng was the first fierce general at that time!" ”

Zheng Zhi smiled slightly, bowed twice, and said, "I have won the prize!" ”

The people at the wine table seemed to be all there, and everyone was laughing.

Zheng Zhi only smiled, picked up the wine bowl, drank it all, and smashed his mouth, saying in his mouth: "Good wine!" ”

Tong Guan opened his mouth and said, "Zheng Zhi, let's listen to your jokes that are not as good as beasts." ”

Everyone laughed when they heard Tong Guan's words.

"Brother, say it quickly, say it quickly, say that the beast is not as good!"

"General, come and listen, I haven't heard of it yet!"

"Xiang Gong, after winning this battle, the last general wants to hear Xiang Gong say that joke again."

"Your Majesty, your joke is known to the whole world, and it should be a good joke."

Zheng Zhi also laughed when he heard this, the wine was just right, and he was about to speak.

Suddenly, I saw another person in front of me, it turned out to be Zhao Ji, so I heard Zhao Ji also say: "Zheng Qing, I have laughed at your joke for several days." ”

Zheng Zhi suddenly frowned when he heard this, and he didn't want to say anything, so he drank by himself.

Zheng Kai, who was still a child, walked up to him from the side and said with a smile: "Father, don't be angry, let's go ride a big horse together." ”

Zheng Zhi smiled lightly when he heard this: "Okay, I'll take you to ride a big horse for my father." ”

Zheng Zhi picked up Zheng Kai and walked out.

Walking and walking, in front of the unicorn beast, Zheng Zhi put down Zheng Kai and reached out to untie the reins.

After untying the reins, he turned around, and a tall and strong man in iron armor stood behind him, with a large scar on the right side of his face and a piece of his right ear missing.

I heard this big man say: "Father, but the son has earned face for his father? ”

Zheng Zhi was stunned when he heard this, his eyes were already full of tears, and he said: "My son is brave and an example for the world!" ”

Suddenly, a young girl rushed next to her, and she also spoke: "Father, can my daughter be satisfied?" ”

Zheng Zhi nodded when he heard this, and replied: "If Xuan'er can marry a husband, it will be more satisfying." ”

When the girl heard this, she giggled and replied, "Then I will go and find someone to marry." ”

Zheng Zhi was overjoyed when he heard this, and nodded again and again: "Excellent, excellent." ”

Smiling and smiling, Zheng Zhi felt that someone was pushing him, suddenly his eyes opened, he sat up, and looked left and right.

I saw that Xu, who was already a silver thread, was lying next to him, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, what kind of good dream did you have tonight, you couldn't stop muttering in your mouth, and you laughed loudly." ”

Zheng Zhi reacted, knowing that he was dreaming, he was subconsciously a little embarrassed, licked his lips, and replied with a smile: "Lady, it's just a dream." ”

Xu also sat up from the bed, smiling lightly and shaking his head.

It's dark.

Zheng Zhi got up and put on his clothes, and shouted in his mouth: "Come on, go find Xiaohu." ”

A voice came from outside the door: "Obey!" ”

The little Hu in Zheng Zhi's mouth is naturally still the same little Hu. It's just that Xiao Hu is not young now, and it is not an exaggeration to call Lao Hu.

Zheng Zhi got dressed, walked to the side of the desk, picked up the pen, and Xu also walked to the side to grind ink for Zheng Zhi.

On the white paper, the names slowly appeared, and they were written for a long time, Zheng Zhi stopped writing from time to time to recall, and picked up the pen to write. The more I wrote, the more names I wrote on the paper, there were hundreds of names.

By the time Zheng Zhi finished writing, Xiao Hu was already waiting outside the door.

Zheng Zhi pushed the door out, handed a stack of papers to Xiao Hu, and said, "The people on the list, on Chinese New Year's Eve this year, are all summoned to Beijing to participate in the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet. ”

Xiao Hu took the list, nodded and said, "The minister will send it to the Ministry of Rites to handle it." ”

Zheng Zhi nodded and said, "Summoning the prince back to the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet." ”

Xiao Hu gave up his hand again, saw Zheng Zhi turn around and entered the room, and turned around to make arrangements.

(End of book)

(Thank you all for your support for so long, I can't thank you enough.) At ten o'clock in the middle of the night, when I wrote this, I felt very melancholy. It's hard to put into words.
