Liu Jun's eyebrows were full of joy.

The three parts of Mobei Khalkha were attached, and the victory of the imperial court's Eastern Crusade of the Huimeng was added to the victory. Zheng Zhilong from Guanzhong reported that after the establishment of Ningxia Province, the western expeditionary troops led by Zheng Zhilong continued to advance westward and have now entered Gansu. Although there were some rebels in Gansu, as soon as the western conscription horses arrived, they were immediately swept away, and now Gansu has been determined, and the fertile Hehuang Valley and the Hexi Corridor have been directly under the jurisdiction of the Han Empire.

And the other three-way soldiers and horses are also frequent good news.

Zhang Shan and Cai Yuan in Hanzhong had already swept away the area of Hanba, and the troops entered western Sichuan. According to Liu Jun's meaning, the imperial court wanted to expand to the west of Sichuan. The imperial court wanted to set aside Yajiang, Aba, Ganzi, and Qamdo in the west of Daxue Mountain, as well as Songpan and Xichang in western Sichuan, to form a new province.

The borders of this new province are on both sides of the Great Snow Mountains. In the future, the western boundary of the imperial court is no longer the Great Snow Mountain, but to advance to the west to another province, and between Western Xinjiang and Sichuan, there is another province.

In the early years, the Ming Dynasty also set up Duochang Dusi and Wusi Zangdusi in the west of Daxue Mountain. However, this is the same as the Nuer Gandusi established in the northeast, at the beginning, there was still some prestige in these places, and the local Turkish leaders also submitted to the central government and accepted canonization.

But in fact, at the beginning, they were farther than Yungui's Tusi, and they were even more Earth Emperors. By the middle and late Ming Dynasty, these places were like Nu'er Gandusi, and they had long been completely separated from the rule of the central court.

Now Liu Jun is asking the Imperial army to re-enter the country, so that these natives can once again submit to the Central Dynasty. For these people, Liu Jun didn't plan to do it in one step, and he would be able to let them change their land and return to the river immediately, but he also drew a timetable.

The Xikang Province established in western Sichuan will be the same as Suiyuan, Ningxia, and Yanbei Province. It will be a place where the imperial court will fully strengthen its control, there will be permanent troops, there will be immigrants, there will be farmland, and the land will be changed and returned.

However, in the area west of Xikang, it will still be a Tusi system for the time being. The imperial court will set up Xijiang Province, but it will first set up two sets of systems of prefectures and counties, and the imperial court will send some liuguan over, but for the time being, it will also let the local officials be autonomous. In these places, the imperial court will slowly emigrate, garrison troops, select and send officials, and finally change the land and return to the river, but this process may take ten or twenty years, or even thirty or fifty years.

Liu Jun has also assigned the area east of the Kunlun Mountains in the southeast of Ganduo Dusi to Gansu Province.

Through such a fold. After cutting, the imperial court was able to continuously infiltrate the power into the western Xinjiang region.

The two provinces of Xikang and Gansu are the two newly expanded frontier provinces that the imperial court wants to strive for and maintain, and the two regions of Xijiang and the Western Regions can be restrained and Tusi for the time being, but the two provinces of Xikang and Gansu must be taken, which will be the bridgehead of the empire.

There are Zhang Shan and Zheng Zhilong here. Liu Jun believes that the situation in these two places will get better and better, and he will soon be on the right track.

Liu Jun is now staring at Yungui. Especially Guizhou.

Liu Qiao reported yesterday that Guizhou's land reform and return to the river was progressing smoothly, and the Shuixi clan tried in vain to resist stubbornly after the death of An Wei, but as a result, it was completely wiped out under the attack of the imperial army.

Guizhou's largest toast water Xi'an. It has been destroyed.

Thirteen Creeks, with hundreds of thousands of people, were completely wiped out, and Thirteen Creeks, thousands of villages. They were completely leveled.

Liu Qiao fully followed Liu Jun's will, and focused on cracking down on the Yi and Miao Tusi dominated by the Shuixi clan, and won over the Miao Dong Tuzhuang and other clans. At the same time, for the Yi people, only those Zimo and Black Yi were also attacked.

Under the various actions of exempting debts, dividing land, appreciating rents, and abolishing slavery, the situation in Guizhou as a whole is extremely good. Although most of the toasts in various places were reversed, they were not able to completely mess up like the Banshu Rebellion and the Lu'an Rebellion in the past.

On the contrary, when the Han army captured a land, they opened warehouses to distribute grain and land to those Yi people, exempted them from debts and reduced interest, and with an order to abolish slavery, countless slaves vied to join the militia in various places, hoping to be free two years in advance.

Even many Tusi stockades, before the Han army could fight them, the serfs rebelled.

Even many Bai Yi followed suit.

According to Liu Qiao's report, there are now more than 100,000 serfs liberated in Guizhou, and the number of Bai Yi who defected to them is even greater, with more than 500,000 Bai Yi joining them.

Bai Yi is the main body of the Yi people, half of the Yi people are Bai Yi, and Bai Yi is also the backbone of the Yi Tusi. Now these Bai Yi's comprehensive defections have made the Guizhou Tusi fall into the encirclement of their own people.

There was no need for the Han army to exert effort, and many Bai Yi had already untied the chains of the serfs, leading them to arrest the local officials and those black Yi and send them to the Han army.

Those Miao villages, Dong villages, and soil villages have also surrendered one after another.

The overall situation of Guizhou has been decided, and many Guizhou natives have fled to Guangxi and Yunnan provinces, leaving behind the foundation of their family business that has been passed down from generation to generation for thousands of years.

Liu Qiao also told Liu Jun the good news that this time in Guizhou, the 60,000 soldiers and horses in the southern expedition not only did not consume much grain, but on the contrary, they also made a lot of money. They seized countless Tuguan's forts, and the spoils of war filled several warehouses in Guiyang City.

Although some of the money and food were given to the 'militia', it was only a small part. Not to mention, another important asset obtained by the imperial court was the land, castles, shops, mines, workshops, etc., which had lost their owners.

The news is truly encouraging.

The imperial court also succeeded in dividing these natives, so that those natives who had been exploited and enslaved by the upper class rose up against their past masters and took their lives.

Attacking the soil with soil, this trick was very successful, Liu Qiao's army of 60,000 basically did not fight a few decent battles. Liu Jun was originally worried that the roads in Guizhou were difficult, and the transportation of grain, grass, artillery and shells could not be completed. Now, the material warehouses in Guiyang City are all full, and they are piling up more and more.

There was no need to use artillery, not even the muskets of the Han army, and the fanatical militia had already overturned all their former masters.

"Guizhou has set up 100,000 militias."

When he saw this number, Liu Jun was taken aback. However, on second thought, the formation of so many militias shows that the indigenous people of Guizhou have been fully mobilized.

As for the formation of so many militiamen, it will be a lot of money to be paid and rewarded. But Liu Jun felt it was worth it. This is a change in Guizhou, so that these people who were oppressed in the past stand up and become the people of the imperial court, we have to let them out of this sulk, and at the same time, we have to make them feel the difference after becoming the subjects of the empire.

Follow the empire, the future is bright.

It is also necessary to make them completely break with their former masters. Don't give those people a chance to take advantage of it.

Liu Jun picked up the pen and began to write an edict to Liu Qiao. He asked Liu Qiao to clear the fields as soon as possible, distribute the land as much as possible to the militiamen, and allow them to buy these official fields.

The price of the land was set at a slightly lower price than the market price in the past, and as long as the militiamen were willing to buy it, they would sell it to them, and even ask the bank to buy the land for them with a mortgage.

The imperial court does not need to keep these lands, nor does it care about the price of land and interest, if you can. Try to sell the land to the people, so that the people who have the land will be more grateful to the court, and at the same time, the court does not have to bother to manage these fields, the court only needs to collect taxes.

Now the money earned by the people as militiamen will also be returned to the court by buying land. It can also completely stabilize the rule of the imperial court in Guizhou.

For the Guizhou militia, let them all have the opportunity to go to the battlefield. That's it, there is no need to keep it all the time, each militia fights two battles, and then you can disband them and return to their hometowns, or hire them to build roads in Guizhou.

As for the captured local officials and soldiers, Liu Jun meant not to kill. But it won't be let go easily. Everyone has to undergo labor reform, and everyone has to be reformed through labor for at least five years, and after five years of road construction, they will be relocated to Hainan, Taiwan, Liaodong, and other places. Give them a piece of wasteland and let them become self-sufficient again.

Liu Qiao hoped that the imperial court would immediately send a group of local officials to take over the local officials.

Qin Liangyu has already entered Yunnan, and Liu Qiao also hopes to end the follow-up in Guizhou as soon as possible and enter Yunnan as soon as possible.

Liu Jun picked up the pen and told Liu Qiao in the letter that he should not rush south to Yunnan, first stabilize Guizhou, and after the officials selected by the imperial court arrived, he would have to continue to maintain himself in Guizhou for a period of time.

As for the rebellion in Yunnan, there is no need to be in a hurry, let the rebels jump first, and the imperial court also hopes that all those chaotic parties will emerge and be wiped out at that time. As for the damage caused by the rebels, there are not many Han Chinese in Yunnan anyway.

Liu Jun wrote this, stopped writing, and pondered for a while.

After a long time, he picked up the pen again and continued to write.

"If you have the opportunity, don't rush to wipe out the rebel army in Yunnan, try to drive them south!"

To the south of Yunnan are Myanmar and Vietnam.

At this time, many places on the border between Myanmar and Yunnan used to be Tusi in the Yuan and Ming dynasties, but later occupied by Myanmar. For example, Mubang, Yuan to Yuan 26 years (1289) to set the road. The seat of governance is in present-day Burma in Xingwei. It was located in the northeastern part of present-day Shan State, Myanmar. In the fifteenth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, it was changed to the government, and in the second year of Yongle, it was changed to the military and civilian propaganda envoys; In the thirty-fourth year of Wanli, he entered Burma.

Vietnam in the southeast, it was already a county established in the Central Plains during the Qin and Han dynasties, and it rebelled at the end of the Tang Dynasty, and it was taken back in the early Ming Dynasty, but later the Vietnamese rebelled, and the Ming army withdrew after the establishment of the Li Dynasty.

In Liu Jun's view, although there are various historical reasons for this, there is today's situation.

However, in the past, the imperial court even had weak control over the strength of Yunnan, Guizhou, and Guangxi, and it was normal for the jungle areas of Myanmar and Vietnam to be out of reach.

But now that the Han Dynasty is strong, after the imperial court takes Yungui and changes the land and returns to the stream, the control of the southwest will naturally be greatly improved. At this time, the imperial court should expand to the south.

The struggle between countries is the law of the jungle, and it doesn't matter whether the Central Plains Dynasty once had sovereignty over these places or not. The important thing is that the current Dahan has the strength to expand to the southwest.

Even if it is just to conquer these places first, and accept them as the feudal counties of the empire, and gradually incorporate them into the empire's territory, it is very worthwhile.

Liu Jun knows very well that in fact, when a dynasty is really enterprising and enterprising, most of them are in the first hundred years. In the first 100 years, the territory of the dynasty will be fixed, and if the territory is not expanded at the beginning of the country, it will be difficult to do anything in the future.

The southwest and the northeast are as worthy of development as the imperial court, and even more valuable than the cold northeast.

Liu Jun has his eyes on these two places.

But he also needs a reason, the so-called teacher must be famous. Conquest for no reason, of course, no.

Liu Jun believed that Liu Qiao could understand what he meant, and if the rebellious Tusi in Yunnan, Guizhou and other places fled into Burma and Vietnam, the imperial court would have a reason to leave the country.

However, the situation in Myanmar and Vietnam is completely different.

Myanmar is now the second largest unified dynasty in its history, the Taungoo Dynasty, which unified all the tribes of Myanmar nearly a hundred years ago. But forty years ago, when the peasants revolted in the country, the generals of the Arakan Dynasty and the Portuguese captured the capital of Burma and captured the king alive. Burma almost lost half of its country, and it took more than ten years to defeat the Grape Army mercenaries, re-complete reunification, and re-emerge.

Now that King Tarong is on the throne, the national strength of Myanmar is not weak, but the Dutch, British, French and other colonial forces invaded again, and the strength of the Taungoo Dynasty began to weaken again.

Vietnam in the east, both in terms of land and strength, was weaker than the Taungoo Dynasty of Burma at this time.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty destroyed the Hu Dynasty in Vietnam and recovered Vietnam. But soon after, all parts of Vietnam rebelled, the Ming army withdrew, and Le Le was proclaimed emperor, which was Hou Le Taizu, and the country was called Da Viet. The Ming Dynasty canonized Le Le and recognized the Le Dynasty, and Vietnam paid tribute to the Ming Dynasty every three years.

Less than a hundred years after the founding of the country, Hou Li weakened, and the powerful minister Mo Dengyong usurped the throne and established the Mo Dynasty.

The Mo Dynasty once occupied the whole of Vietnam, but the officials and generals of the Later Lê Dynasty continued to revolt. Eventually, the Later Li Dynasty was restored and occupied half of the southern part of the country. However, when the situation of the Later Li Dynasty was very good, Lu Gan, the de facto commander of the restored Later Li Dynasty, was poisoned by the Mo Dynasty generals. Nguyen Gan's son-in-law, Zheng Song, inherited Ruan Gan's rights and became the ruler of the Later Lê Dynasty. Zheng Song led his army to defeat the Mo Dynasty and recapture the capital Thang Long Province, and the Mo Dynasty retreated to the north.

From more than 40 years ago, Zheng Song seized the Lilong Mansion, and the Li court returned to Shenglong, in fact, the Emperor of the Li Dynasty was just a puppet, it was Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, and Zheng Song was Cao Cao.

Since then, the Li Dynasty and the Mo Dynasty have been opposing each other in the north and south, attacking each other, and the Mo Dynasty has become weaker and weaker, but it has been surviving. And the Li Dynasty was not peaceful, after Zheng Song's death, Zheng Song's son first had internal strife, and later the new Zheng lord and Ruan Gan's son were suspicious of each other. Lord Zheng sent Nguyen Gan's son Nguyen Huang to a remote place in the south, and as a result, Nguyen Gan's son was very capable, and actively operated in the remote Hue, winning the hearts and minds of the people, and later developed into the Nguyen lord's regime in the south.

At the same time, in the Later Li Dynasty, there was also the protector Wu clan who seized Xuanguang Town.

Therefore, in today's small part of Vietnam, there are both the Mo Dynasty in the north, which survived, and the Hou Lê Dynasty in the south, which was usurped and restored by the Dynasty and occupied most of Vietnam.

But in the Later Li Dynasty, Emperor Li was just a puppet, and it was the Zheng family who was really in power. However, there is still a Ruan lord in the south, and the Nguyen clan separatizes the regime, and there is another protector in the center, the Wu clan.

Vietnam is now both the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties and the era of feudal towns. But whether it is the Zheng lord or the Nguyen lord, it is actually not weak, especially the Nguyen clan occupies the south, annexes small countries such as Champa, trades with the Xiyi foreigners, and has a new type of firearms force.

According to Jinyiwei's intelligence, Zheng Ruan's two factions have fought three major wars in the seventh year of the Apocalypse to the present, more than ten years. The first time I fought for a year, the second time I fought for three years, and this third time has been fought for six years and has not yet ended.

However, whether it is the Taungoo Dynasty in Myanmar or the Northern and Southern Dynasties and the division of feudal towns in Vietnam, they are all going downhill.

Liu Jun felt that this was a good time for Dahan to intervene. (To be continued.) )
