The move of the capital to Beijing was a foregone conclusion, but the real move north meant that the Ming Dynasty's strategic focus had completely shifted, and even for the safety of the Beijing Division, the offensive of the Ming army in the north would be resumed and the security scope of the Beijing Division would be expanded.

On the other hand, when the emperor was in Beijing, a large area south of Beijing could be regarded as safe, which not only stabilized the psychology of the people in the north to seek peace in farming, but also attracted the enthusiasm of some wealthy people to buy land. In the same way, in the densely populated areas of the south, there are also quite a few ordinary people who come to settle and take root in the preferential policies, after all, the cultivated land in the south is relatively sufficient, and owning their own land and renting other people's land are completely different things.

This is the role of policy guidance, which is often more effective than coercion. And this method will also be used in the future Northeast China, where a significant increase in population is predictable, and land is not to be wanted.

When the emperor set off, the earth should have shaken and the mountains shook, and the people were like clouds. However, Zhu Yongxing did not make a big move, and only quietly left Nanjing, went up the canal, and advanced towards Beijing under the protection of the sailor and hundreds of guards. The following cars were just concubines and palace maids, and it was quite immense.

"Don't look at it." Sitting on the boat, Zhu Yongxing listened to the messenger's narration, and did not even open the letter, so he waved his hand and said simply: "There is no peace, as long as I surrender unconditionally, I will ignore anything else." ”

The Manchus sent envoys to ask for peace. What about the conditions, Zhu Yongxing is too lazy to look at it. Under the current situation, although the financial constraints of the imperial court are still available, there are still ways to alleviate them. As long as the attack on the Zheng clan of Annam and the destruction of the city state along the way are carried out, the money and materials for a major campaign in the northeast can be accumulated by war capture.

Moreover, with the recovery of the north and the stability of the south, the materials, grain and grass to support the war in the northeast will become more and more abundant, and military operations will become more frequent and more violent. If peace is negotiated in this way, then Zhu Yongxing's head is purely water.

"Wait." Zhu Yongxing suddenly had a mischievous idea, he remembered a very famous cruel sentence, and couldn't help laughing: "Bring a message to the Tartar envoy: If you don't come to surrender, then from now on, you will use soldiers in the year, ravage your cultivation in summer, burn your crops in autumn, and I will have seven out of twenty this year, and then stop when the white teeth fall." ”

Well, if you don't surrender, then you will fight, there is no deadline. If the deadline is to go from twenty to seven, to the fall of the white teeth, there will always be thirty or forty years, I am ready to spend a lifetime fighting with you, can you support it until then?

In fact, since the beginning of spring, the advantages of the Ming army have been reflected, mainly in the water division. Juehua Island is like a nail, pierced between Shanhaiguan and Jinzhou, and even the Liaoxi Corridor is facing the threat of the Ming army's naval divisions, although the Manchu Qing Dynasty tried their best to hold it up, but still retreated from Shanhaiguan at the right time, shrinking to the Daling River and Jinzhou line to deploy defenses.

In other words, now the Ming army can advance to the Ningyuan line almost without resistance, and then use Juehua to hoard materials and form a new round of confrontation with the Manchus. After the supplies are ready, Liaoxi and Liaodong will send out a flank attack, and the lowest target can recover Jinzhou, and then pose a threat to Shenyang.

Although the current shape is very favorable, militarily, Zhu Yongxing still holds on to the heavy use of troops, and strives to achieve the most certain victory with an overwhelming advantage. For example, the quota of the Northeast Military Region is 100,000 people, which has already exceeded the total number of troops that the Manchu Qing Dynasty can mobilize now. With the help of the Beijing Military Region, twice as much as the enemy can be achieved.

Of course, the more important tactics were blockade and attrition, as well as co-opting the Mongol tribes to become enemies of the Manchus. Don't confuse the current Northeast with the future "Beidacang", the current natural environment of the Northeast is very poor, the journey is very low, and if you live by fishing and hunting, the Manchu Qing will barely survive, not only will it be difficult to expand and grow, but there will be no food and grass materials needed for military operations.

As for co-opting the Mongol tribes, the Chahar tribe had openly rebelled against the Qing Dynasty, attacked the remnants of the Manchu Qing who had fled from the outer wall of Zunhua, ambushed and killed Suke Saha, one of the auxiliary ministers, and sent an envoy to the Ming Dynasty to ask for a "reward". The other Mongol tribes, except for Horqin, all had a wait-and-see posture and were no longer willing to work for the Manchus. At the same time, the Manchu Qing Dynasty, who had withdrawn from the Guanwai, no longer had the materials of the Central Plains to encircle and buy them. When the Manchus were further weakened, it was not difficult to see the Mongol tribes turning their faces into enemies and making moves against the Manchus in order to obtain supplies and preferential commercial relations from the Ming Dynasty.

What should be the sign of further weakness of the Manchu Qing Dynasty's withdrawal from Guanwai, Zhu Yongxing designated it as Shenyang. As long as the Ming army recovers Shenyang, this so-called Longxing land, which was renamed the Qing Dynasty from the Later Jin, will prove to the world that the Manchu and Qing dynasties will be exhausted, and it will be difficult to have a chance to rise.

"The Dangshuo army can go out of Shanhaiguan and advance to Ningyuan." Zhu Yongxing felt the spring breeze and knew that in the northeast, the cold environment that was quite difficult for the soldiers of the Ming army had ended, and the big war did not need to start, but the military pressure must be maintained. In order to ensure the strength of the Northeast Military Region, Liaodong mainly relied on them for the war. ”

"Qi Sheng, the responsibility of the Beijing Military Region is heavy, and the scope of defense is also very wide, and it seems inappropriate to transfer too many soldiers and horses into western Liaoning." Ye Hu, the secretary of the Ministry of State Security, bowed down and said: "Whether to expand the army again, or transfer troops from other places." ”

"Finance, before it is truly relieved, these soldiers and horses in the Northland are already close to the limit." Zhu Yongxing shook his head helplessly, and said: "The Chahar Department has rebelled against the Qing Dynasty, and the other Mongolian departments are waiting and seeing, the danger of Xuanfu, Datong, and Jizhou has been greatly reduced, and according to the strength of the Beijing Army, it is still enough to deal with it." If something really happens, it would be good to hand over Datong to the Northwest Military Region. ”

The threat of the Eastern Captives is very strong for the time being, because there are too many tribes and it is difficult to work together, so it is not difficult to deal with them, and it is not easy to form a joint force. Moreover, Monan Mongolia changed because of Chahar's rebellion against the Qing Dynasty, and the Ming court united with Chahar, who would dare to act rashly.

"Burnny of the Chahar cannot be trusted." Ye Hu cautiously reminded: "Besides, the reward he wants is a little too much. ”

"It's a lot." Zhu Yongxing nodded, but then said: "But you can replace it with other items, as long as Burnie likes it, there will be no problem." For example, a large mirror, but it is worth a lot! ”

People ask for silver, and you give a large mirror, which seems to be of equal value, but the large mirror is a luxury and is of no use to the growth of the strength of the Chahar Department. Moreover, the price of large mirrors is very high, but the cost is very low, which virtually saves the government's money. r1152……
