On March 17, the 15th year of Wucheng in China, Zheng Kezhang left the Nanhongmen Palace and set off for Chengde under the escort of the Praetorian Guard and the First Division of the Flying Cavalry. On the same day, the six-month-long military control of Youzhou Mansion came to an end, but at this time Youzhou City had changed from a megacity with a population of nearly 2 million to a large city of less than 400,000. As a result, the outer city of Youzhou, which was originally crowded, was suddenly deserted a lot, and the inner city of Youzhou, which was originally stipulated to be inhabited only by banner people, turned into a dead area.

In order not to make Youzhou a ruined city, at the behest of Zheng Kezang, the Huaxia Military Department soon established a huge gunpowder factory and workers' accommodation area in the north of the inner city of Youzhou, and finally formed a daily production capacity of 10,000 catties five years later, providing a solid material support for the Xia army's operations in Mobei and Northeast China.

After the gunpowder factory was completed and put into operation, a series of military industries and agricultural tool yards and other civilian industries were built in the inner city of Youzhou. Among them, the double-barreled short-barreled firecracker produced by the gun-making field was once the favorite of the officers and soldiers of the Xia Army's cavalry and sailors, and the long-barreled hunting gun, which was specially supplied to the people of Tunbian, has also become a famous brand made in Youzhou. Although the armor factory was discontinued decades later with the exhibition of the times, the (ductile ink) cast iron cannon made by the foundry using the pig iron provided by the Korean Mosan iron ore mine was famous far and wide, although it was not as lighter, more charged, and longer range than the steel cannon equipped by the Xia army itself, but because of its excellent quality, it was also unanimously welcomed by the shy vassal states and was chosen by the Chinese armed merchant ships that sailed far and wide. As for the farm tools, the farm tools also made of cast iron are all over North China and Northeast China??????

On 19 March, Zheng Kezhang arrived in Miyun, and on the same day he issued an edict appointing the Ningxia prefect as the pacification ambassador of Moxi, the naturalized prefect as the pacification ambassador of Ulanqab, the Xuanhua prefect as the chahar pacification ambassador, the Chengde prefect as the Zhaowuda pacification ambassador, the Chaoyang prefect as the Zhuo Suotu pacification ambassador, and the soon-to-be-established Tongliao Zhili Prefecture as the Zhelimu pacification ambassador.

On March 22, Zheng Kezhang arrived in Chengde, and in the afternoon of the same day, despite the fatigue of the journey, he met with several high-ranking monks of the Yellow Sect enshrined in the Rehe Palace by the Qing court. After receiving the hata and blessings offered by these lamas, Zheng Kezhang told them that he would soon allocate 200,000 yuan to build two Tibetan-style Huangjiao monasteries on the east bank of the Wulie River for the living Buddhas and Hutu Ketu to preach the Dharma. Zheng Kezhang also stipulated that the two temples would be the highest temples of the Zhaowu Dameng and the Zhuo Suotu League.

From 24 to 26 March, most of the princes of the Mongol banners in southern Mongol who had been asked to attend the Chengde meeting arrived one after another.

"Have you heard of it, the winter over there is not very peaceful." While Zheng Kezhang had not yet been summoned, the Mongols were also in tandem with each other. "There are dozens of sumu (note: township) that have been destroyed??????"

An old prince seems to recall the history narrated by his ancestors: "I think about how prosperous Mongolia was when Yanda Khan was there, but now China is going to fight and the Qing Dynasty is going to be defeated, and there is no way to live this day." ”

"But what the Qing Dynasty can threaten is only a few banners of Zhelimu, but Huaxia is close to you and me." The thought of the appearance of the cavalry of the Xia army in the Battle of Gu'an, and one of the banner owners who participated in this battle and was later released by Huaxia shuddered. "Now that my Monan tribes have lost too much Ding Zhuang, how can they confront Huaxia, as long as Huaxia does not destroy Chahar like destroying us, even if Emperor Wucheng is harsh, we can only endure it."

Is China harsh on Mongolia? Of course, it is much inferior to the Qing court, which paid back the extra money, but do the princes really care about the thousands of taels of silver and dozens of silks? The answer is no, but Huaxia forced the banner owners to live in Guihua City at the beginning, and later, although Zheng Kezhang revoked the policy and changed to appoint the flag owners to take turns to serve as deputy envoys and counselors of the pacification envoys in various state capitals, but the purpose of Huaxia to set up post stations and merchants in Mongolia has not changed, which is undoubtedly a knife on the neck of Mongolian flags. However, the demise of Chahar was just around the corner, so the flags and alliances that were badly injured could only tremble and acquiesce in the system set by Zheng Kezang.

"I heard that Emperor Wucheng is going to temporarily assign Darigangai's official pasture to the rest of the Chahar tribe who surrendered to Cheng." A Mongol prince told a rumor. "Next, the Chahar people are afraid that they will become the knives in the hands of Huaxia."

"Darigang loves how big that place is, how can it accommodate the remnants of the Chahar Eight Banners," the other prince shook his head. "The Chinese court will inevitably drive them to the east to conquer the Qing Dynasty or go north to Transkhalkha, and the Chahar people will have to shed a lot of blood if they want to survive." The prince lamented. "If you don't use a knife, you will be killed by a knife, and if you are a knife, you will break one day, I hope this is not the future of our Mongolians, otherwise it will ??????"

"Otherwise what?" There are also people who disagree. "Do you think we'll be able to live in peace? Perhaps, but according to the Mongolian Jue Law promulgated by Huaxia, it will not take three generations, and the pastures of each family will be so fragmented that they can drive horses out of the country for half a day, and what will you and my children and grandchildren do at that time? What else can you do if you don't use the Chinese people as knives! ”

"Not to mention the future, just now, there are already more than 10,000 volunteers recruited by Huaxia in Naturalization City, many of which are Taiji and Tabu Sang of various banners." A thin Mongolian prince, who had obviously recovered from his injuries recently, said indignantly. "They are all attracted by the pastures and slaves promised by Huaxia, and if it goes on like this, my subordinates will run out."

"Huaxia continues to send reclamation to the Hetao and Liaohe, and the grazing land is getting less and less. Some princes questioned. "Could it be that the Huaxia Imperial Court is deceiving these people?"

"Liar? The Chinese court doesn't need to deceive people at all, doesn't Horqin still have a few flags attached to the Qing Dynasty? If it is exterminated, there will naturally be pastureland. Someone sneered. Moreover, there is also grassland on the Heilongjiang side, and there is a good water grassland on the edge of Hulun Lake. Anyway, all of them are from the Qing Dynasty, and Huaxia has meat and bones, so the soup can naturally be divided into some for us Mongolians. ”

"Even if the pastures in Hulun Lake and the pastures in Horqin are there, how big are they, and how many people can be placed in Huaxia." A red-faced Mongolian prince said in a sullen voice. "One generation, at most two generations, what next? If the Huaxia court doesn't want to take back what it said, then it will have to start a war against Transkhalkha, Jungar, and even the Rakshasa Kingdom, and then we Mongols will definitely be the forerunner again??????"

"It doesn't matter if that's the case." A round prince swept through the crowd. "You don't have to fight with your life, who will give you territory and slaves for nothing, but the problem is that Transkhalkha may not be a strong enemy for Huaxia, but the Dzungars and Rakshasa people, it's hard to say, the Qing Dynasty has also suffered losses on them??????"

"What are you talking about so far away," said a one-eyed Mongol prince coldly. "What about the descendants is the business of the descendants, as long as Huaxia does not move our pastures and people now, it will be tossed by Huaxia."

The emaciated prince shouted: "Then our subordinates let Huaxia be deceived in vain?" ”

The one-eyed prince responded coldly: "If you have the ability, go and ask the Chinese people, if you don't dare, you have to take care of your own family, and don't be embarrassed in front of outsiders and make people laugh at them??????."

At the same time as the Mongol princes were in tandem, Yin Long, the Qing ambassador who accompanied the princes of the Seven Banners of Ordos on their pilgrimage, was reporting to Zheng Kezang: "The Yikezhao League expressed to the ministers that they were willing to accept the orders of the imperial court, and the Seven Banners will be moved to Chahar within the year. ”

"That's good news," Zheng nodded. "However, Qing should not be taken lightly, and he still has to search carefully, and do not let a small group of Mongolian people stay around the Hetao." Zheng Kezhang took a circle indoors. "Let's go and make it clear to the Seven Banners Banner Lord, there will be no Yike Zhao Alliance in the future, and there will be only Chahar Seven Banners left, let them report the names of the deputy envoys and counselors, and when the flag land is divided, it will be handed over to the Xuanhua Mansion, so that there will be no mistakes." Zheng Kezhang further instructed. "There is no need to ask too much about the affairs of Chahar, but the Qing ambassador and the garrison still have to stay along the Yellow River to ensure the setting of the four Zhili prefectures such as planning and Pingdiquan."

Yin Long responded: "The minister has already submitted the strategy for stationing in the Privy Council before, and after the search and cleaning of the hometown of the Yike Zhao League is completed, he will be in each town and one division in the four Zhili Prefectures in case of contingency. ”

Zheng Kezhang asked noncommittally: "How did the Privy Council approve it?" ”

Yin Long replied: "On the grounds that the four Zhili Prefectures belong to two provinces, the Privy Council wants to divide the current departments under the jurisdiction of the minister into two, the two divisions are subordinate to the Shuofang, Longshang, and Shaanxi provinces, and the other is under the Eren Metropolitan Protectorate to deter the southern Mongolian tribes. ”

"No," Zheng Kezhang shook his head. "It's okay to divide it into two, but the remaining two divisions will be under the jurisdiction of Daibei, Liaoning, and Youzhou, and the Eren Protectorate doesn't have to target Monan." Speaking of which, Zheng Kezhang ordered. "After the relocation of the Seven Banners of Ordos is completed, the two positions of Shuofang General Army and Daibei General Army will be abolished, and the deputy general soldiers of Yulin, Guyuan, Hetao, Guisui, Datong, and Xuanhua will be set up; After Liaodong was overcome, the Liaoning General Army was abolished, and the Deputy General Army of Chengde, Tongliao and Jinzhou was set up. ”

Before Zheng Kezhang issued the order, the appearance of two general troops and deputy general troops in one province only appeared in Jianghuai and Huguang provinces, but that was because the two general army headquarters of Jianghuai and Huai were inconvenient to mobilize due to the division of the canal, and Huguang had to be set up as a last resort because they were inconvenient to mobilize due to the division of the canal, and Huguang had the need to support the two strategic directions of Yidong and Zhongzhou.

And now Zheng Kezhang has set up six deputy commanders in the three northern provinces in one go, which is unprecedented, and it is obvious that he is still vigilant against the submission of southern Mongolia, and of course it may return to normal in five to ten years. As for the establishment of the subordinates of Daibei, Liaoning, and Youzhou, it is a norm to serve as a junction between the Khalkha Mongolian direction in the north and the hinterland of Manchuria in the northeast, and provide solid backing and necessary assistance for the two directions.

Yin Long, who thought that he was very likely to take up the subordinate position of this new capital, was moved: "Under the rule of the general army of the three provinces, there were originally two divisions and four divisions of the minister's department, and now they are split into the deputy commander-in-chief of the nine towns, so there is one more division, but it will be directly subordinate to the subordinates of the Liao Youdu?" ”

Zheng Kezhang did not intend to tell Yin Long about his determination to continue to reduce the 6th Division, so he just waved his hand and said: "It's too early to discuss this matter, and ??????we will talk about it when the Quartet is stable."
