"The government is in charge of civil affairs and finances, and will not involve religious affairs, but no matter how much influence the monasteries have in Wusizang, they are also not allowed to interfere in local civil affairs, this is the bottom line, and it is also the biggest concession I can make!"

Zhu Houwei said in a loud voice: "Wusi has the operating rules of Wusizang, and the imperial court also has the rules of the imperial court, and only by not interfering with each other can we achieve the same glory and governance!" In addition, the finance collected from the snow area should also be taken from the people, used for the people, considering the poverty of the snow area, I can also allocate one million taels of silver from the financial income of the Ming Dynasty for the infrastructure construction of the snow area every year, and then let 100,000 Western European laborers go to participate in the construction, I want every Tibetan to feel the grace of the Ming Dynasty, so that the Tibetans will be grateful for the kindness of the Ming Dynasty from generation to generation, so that every Tibetan will have a real sense of belonging to the Ming Dynasty! ”

"Your Majesty's kindness is unprecedented, so the people of Wusizang will definitely miss Your Majesty and be grateful to Daming!"

Zhu Houwei smiled: "Thank you...... What I want is not this, what I want is to truly incorporate Wusizang into the territory of the Ming Dynasty, not a nominal subordination, so the garrison is equally important, and the significance of the garrison is nothing else, just to maintain the peace of the Wusizang place, curb the evil thoughts of ambitious people, and crack down on the thieves and thieves who wander into Wusizang! ”

Yang Yiqing didn't answer, and he couldn't answer, the control of the Ming army was completely in the hands of Emperor Jiajing, the so-called Ministry of Defense was in charge of the army, but in fact, it couldn't touch the military power at all, and without the emperor's approval, the Ministry of Defense couldn't mobilize a soldier at all......

Therefore, if the garrison is not garrisoned, the emperor can say it alone, and the court can't intervene and is too lazy to intervene......

Zhu Houwei smiled slightly, of course he knew the depression of Yang Yiqing and other officials, but as an emperor, he could let go of anything, and the army would never let go, as an emperor, he couldn't even control the army, and he couldn't get the army's loyalty, so wouldn't he, the emperor, be a hypocrisy.

The second is financial power, the reason why he wants to grasp financial power, because financial power is the confidence for him to implement various reforms, and it is also the capital to skip the imperial court to raise the army, the two are closely related and indispensable!

"I will order the army to do the affairs of the garrison, and I want the people to belong to it, and then recognize it, or that sentence, to let the people have a sense of identity and belonging, simply put, it is to let the people live a rich and surplus life, and the people can be fed and clothed, they will not be able to rebel, otherwise it will not be a loss of conscience and extinction of humanity, such a person will kill a thousand and slaughter ten thousand, I will not frown!

But how can we make the people rich? The grassland is the best example, so it is the same in Wusizang, if you want to get rich, build roads first, build roads first, build official roads connecting cities and counties in Wusizang, build official roads connecting cities and counties, and repair them according to the current standards, and when the roads in Wusizang are all repaired, they will be repaired outside! ”

Yang Yiqing was powerless to complain......

Anyway, Emperor Jiajing has silver, and every time Gu Hou returns to Beijing, he doesn't bring back twenty or thirty million taels of silver from Western Europe.

Zhu Houwei glanced at the map, and then at Ren Xing.

Ren Xing immediately walked to the map and took off the pink pennant that was sucking on the Wusi snow area and replaced it with a small red flag.

"The name of Wusizang is not good, since it is located in the west, it will be called Tibet in the future, and tell the world!"

"Your Ministers obey!"

"Why haven't I heard from Xinjiang for a few days?"

According to Zhu Houwei's will, after Wang Shouren arrived at Jiayuguan, he needed to write down the latest situation every three days, and then send the horse back to the capital.

However, the last time Zhu Houwei received a report was five days ago......

Yang Yiqing got up, took out a book from the sleeve of his robe, and presented it with both hands: "The messenger encountered heavy rain on the way, and the road was muddy, so it was delayed for two days.

Zhu Houwei didn't care about this, he opened the recital and read it carefully, and after reading it, he closed the recital, leaned back, and closed his eyes slightly.

After half a burnt incense, Zhu Houwei opened his eyes and sighed: "Not surprisingly, the war in Xinjiang can be determined."

Several important ministers present breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.

Since Wang Shouren led the army to the expedition, it has been more than eight months, since Wang Shouren arrived in Hami after leaving Jiayu Pass, this thousand mile journey, almost no resistance, and then pushed to the already dilapidated city of Hami.

Originally stationed in Hami Tulu Pan fire man he Ding was hit hard in front of Jiayu Pass, but also lucky, this luck escaped a life, learned that the Ming Dynasty army out of Jiayu Pass, straight to Hami, where still dare to stay in Hami, panic like a lost dog, the wealth looted in Hami City swept away, then fled directly to Turpan Jiaohe City.

Wang Shouren didn't seem surprised, and after leaving a garrison of 2,000 people in Hami, he led the main force to attack Tulupan again!

On the eighth day of the second month of the ninth year of Jiajing, Wang Shouren led the army to arrive at the foot of Jiaohe City!

Fan Su'er, the great Han of Tulufan, led 50,000 elite cavalry out of the city to attack the Ming army camp, but in the end he fell into Wang Shouren's plan to lure the enemy, and the 50,000 cavalry were divided and surrounded by 50,000 foot soldiers, losing tens of thousands, and fled back to Jiaohe City.

On the ninth day of the second lunar month, Wang Shouren bombarded Jiaohe City with light artillery, which lasted for two hours, blasting out a huge gap in the Jiaohe city wall, and then the army attacked the city!

In the first battle, the Ming army beheaded several senior generals of Turpan, including him Ding, Fan Suer was shot in the leg, and the remnants of less than 10,000 horsemen escaped from Jiaohe City!

In Jiaohe City, the Ming army searched for the loyal king Baiya, who rebelled against the Ming!

Subsequently, Wang Shouren continued westward......

"God bless the Ming! Since the West Xinjiang has been in trouble! Yang Yiqing let out a long sigh, unable to hide his excitement.

"It's too early to tell." Zhu Houwei walked to the map with a smile, pointed to the incomparably vast area in the northwest of the Central Plains and said: "This is Jiayuguan, thousands of miles to the west can reach Hami, this area is also the territory originally controlled by the Ming Dynasty, from Hami to Turpan 800 miles, this line is now owned by the Ming Dynasty, but it is still early!"

Zhu Houwei's finger moved to the position of Kashgar, and then drew a circle along the Kunlun Mountains all the way down to Tibet, and said in a condensed voice: "This is the Xinjiang I want!" The land within a radius of thousands of miles is the land of the Ming Dynasty, and if anyone invades it, I will destroy its country! ”

Several ministers were dumbfounded, it was really because the territory drawn by Emperor Jiajing was too vast, just from the map, it was at least equivalent to eight or nine provinces of the Ming Dynasty!

Regardless of the borders of Guizhou and Tibet and the southeastern countries in the future, Xinjiang alone plus grasslands ......

The actual territory of the Ming Dynasty is twice as large as that of the Zhengde period!
