At the foot of Helan Mountain, Su Jin was still busy recovering the cities around Yinchuan and chasing the fleeing rout.

Qin Mu was annoyed by the 50,000 Mongol army led by Ma Yongzhen.

These 50,000 Mongolian youths were drawn from various Mongolian departments in southern Mongolia last year, and they were actually a disguised method of drawing Ding. Now that the reorganization has been completed, it is impossible for Qin Mu to return it to the various ministries of Monan.

The problem is that when Ma Yongzhen and his team reorganized these horses, they used the excuse of more efficient encirclement and suppression of Norbu and Chitate. Now that Norbu and Chitath have been exterminated, if you don't return these 50,000 people, you will have to find another excuse.

Originally, Qin Mu planned to send these 50,000 troops to the Western Regions to attack Dzungaria after exterminating Quite, but now Dzungar was drawn by Yan Yingyuan, and then defeated by Li Dingguo, and the wolf bèi retreated to Yarkand City.

Now Qin Mu also wants to use Batur to eliminate the influence of the Heavenly Fang Sect on the Western Regions, so far, Batur has done a good job in this regard, if he can withdraw from the northern Xinjiang according to his own requirements, take away the men and the old and weak in the northern Xinjiang, and leave the young women, it is equivalent to sending a clean northern Xinjiang to Daqin with one son, avoiding endless future troubles in the future.

Therefore, Qin Mu didn't want to attack Dzungaria on a large scale now, and it would be more beneficial for Great Qin to let him toss in southern Xinjiang for a few years first.

It's just that if you don't fight Dzungaria, how will Ma Yongzhen's 50,000 army be arranged?

In addition, Qinghai-Tibet's high school has also organized 30,000 Tibetan youths into an army, which also has to be arranged, and it is obviously unrealistic to send it directly to Australia now.

God's whip, the Yellow Peril. These two words jumped into Qin Mu's mind again.

When Huliegu went west, how many people were used? Twenty thousand, or fifty thousand?

Did Möngke Khan prepare logistics for him? It seems that they did not, as if they were drinking mare's milk, all the way into Central Asia.

In other words, if there is a westward expedition like Hülegü, it is actually a business. There is no need to worry about the loss of national strength.

On this day, hunting at the foot of Helan Mountain, Qin Mu suddenly remembered that Da Yu'er mentioned that Tsarist Russia had invaded the Moxi grassland many times.

At noon, Qin Mu called the Dzungar envoy Heljin and asked him to talk about Tsarist Russia.

I don't know if I don't know this, but I was shocked when I talked about it, and Tsarist Russia not only invaded Moxi, but even hit the north of Heilongjiang.

In Western terms, Siberia and the Far East were not part of Russia until the end of the 16th century. This period. Russia has just formed a unified centralized state, with a territory only around Moscow, located in the northeastern corner of Europe, far from Siberia. It was only in the middle of the 16th century that Tsar Ivan IV came to power, and Russia began to expand to the East.

In 1556, the Tsar summoned the Stroganovs, who were adjacent to the Siberian Khanate, to inquire about the border shape and authorize them to resist the Siberian Khanate. They were ordered to build fortified fortresses near the Siberian Khanate. Recruiting troops, buying weapons, and waiting for an opportunity to invade the Siberian Khanate, a fierce conflict ensued between the two sides.

Year 1579. The Stroganovs sent people to contact Yermak, the Cossack leader who had been severely punished by the Tsar, and encouraged him to join the gang to conquer the Siberian Khanate and serve the Tsar's colonization of the territory.

Year 1581. After a long period of preparation, the Cossack chief Yermak led a team of 840 people, supported by the weapons of the Stroganov family. Officially sent troops to conquer Siberia.

The Russian army advanced along the waterway, passing the Chusovaya River, crossing the Ural Mountains, crossing the Serebryanka, Tagil, Tula, Tobol rivers, and finally invading the Irtysh River.

In October 1581, he captured Kashrek, the capital of the Siberian Khanate. Yermak and his gang made a contribution to Russian expansion. The tsar decided to pardon Yermak and others, commend them for their actions and award large salaries.

The Stroganovs were also encouraged and rewarded with two cities.

The invading forces of Tsarist Russia crossed the Ural Mountains, and Yermak's expedition opened the prelude to a large-scale Russian expansion into Siberia.

After conquering the Siberian Khanate, Tsarist Russia sent heavy troops, built castles, and held military positions to consolidate the newly occupied areas. And use these strongholds as base camps to further penetrate the Barabin steppe.

At the same time, Tsarist Russia stepped up its advance to the upper reaches of the Ob River and established the city of Tomsk at the mouth of the Tom River. In this area, the Russian army had a fierce struggle with the Mongols and Kyrgyzstans and other ethnic groups in Moxi, and began to push into Moxi and Mobei step by step.

After Moxi did not seek benefits, Tsarist Russia continued to expand eastward, occupying parts of the middle, lower and upper reaches of the Yenisei River in the early years of Chongzhen.

After occupying the two major river systems in Siberia, they sent troops from Mangatya in the north and Yeniseisk in the south to occupy the Lena River at the same time.

The Cossack cavalry plundered property up and down the river, established strongholds. Medium-Velyuysk, Niezhny Velyuysk and Verkhniy Velyuysk were established successively.

In 1638, Tsarist Russia ordered the establishment of the Yakutsk Governorate, which forcibly incorporated a large area of land in the area of the Lena River (which originates on Lake Baikal) into Russian territory. After that, Yakutsk became the command center for further Russian expeditions into Northeast Asia.

By the end of Chongzhen's reign, the invading forces of Tsarist Russia had crossed the Yenisei River and reached the Lena River, the Chukotka Peninsula and the Sea of Okhotsk (where the Heilongjiang River enters the sea).

In the process of gradually advancing eastward, the Russians established a number of castles and winter camps in this area. In 1638 Verkhoyansk was founded on the Jana River, and in 1642 Nezhyansk was founded; On the Indigirka River was established Peterszversk, etc. In 1645, Mikhail. Stadukhin and others reached the Kolyma River and successively established three winter camps in the upper, middle and lower Kolymas. In 1647 the Okhotsk Fort was founded.

After learning these news, Qin Mu couldn't help but sniff, this is also too good, behind closed doors, it is only said that Great Qin has expanded the fastest, but now I know that everyone has fought from the steppes of Eastern Europe to the Sea of Japan, and East and Siberia have become people's pockets.

Some people say that if the country expands too quickly, the country will collapse, why didn't Tsarist Russia collapse?

In such a large area, people have been firmly ruled until the 21st century, and China has to pay trillions of soft girls to buy oil and gas.

Originally, East and Siberia were supposed to be China's backyards, and if this large area of land was in hand, China could concentrate on developing southward, and in the future, it would not have to worry about energy problems or stabbing people in the back.

What's more, now that the forces of Moxi and Mobei Mongolia have been purged by Great Qin, and those places have almost become no man's land, will the tsarist Russia, which is eyeing each other, have such a good opportunity?

After returning to the palace, Qin Mu gathered all the generals in the army, and then asked, "My generals, have you heard of the Whip of God?" ”

The more than 20 guerrilla generals present looked at each other, and they had really never heard of this statement.

"At that time, the Mongol generals Batu and Hulegu went on a journey to the west, which was called the whip of God by Westerners, which means that God whipped them with a whip. I also need a whip to whip the ignorant now, I wonder if any of the generals would like to be my whip? ”

The generals look at me, I look at you, and finally Li Jiu stood up and replied: "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to be His Majesty's whip." ”

"General Li, have you thought about it, the expedition to the west is a chore, maybe it will take ten years at a time, eating and sleeping, and traveling tens of thousands of miles. Except for the 50,000 army, I have no delay, no logistics for you, once you embark on the journey, you have to rely on yourself. ”

"I understand." Li Jiu bowed and said: "It is the honor of the minister to be loyal to His Majesty, whether it is a sword mountain or a sea of fire, the minister is willing to go!" The minister has only one request, imploring His Majesty to give the minister a name. ”

"Okay, I will give General Li a fixed word, pacify East and Siberia for me, return the forces of Tsarist Russia to their original form, and erect the boundary monument of Great Qin on the Ural Mountain, so that he will never dare to cross the Ural Mountain."

"Thank you for your name, minister, Li Ding will never live up to His Majesty's trust, if he can't achieve his holy order, he will never survive."

"Okay, on the day of General Li's triumph, I will definitely welcome Baili in person, and let the painter paint a portrait of General Li and hang it on the Lingyan Pavilion."

"Xie Majesty, the minister is dead."

"In addition to the 50,000 Mongol army, I will let you select 3,000 elites from the army, give you 3,69-style flintlock rifles, and 100 rockets, I can give you so much, out of the border that my Great Qin currently actually controls, it will be up to you to do it."
