When the people below heard that Wang Zhongxiao would do things, and Kangxi was very happy, they all looked up at Kangxi, as if they wanted to hear him say what this Wang Zhongxiao was doing, and they all wanted to learn from Wang Zhongxiao!

Of course, Kangxi understood the meaning of these minions below, so he closed the fold, handed it back to Xiao Guizi, and asked the latter to put it away, and then said with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that Wang Zhongxiao found a lot among the Portuguese in Hao. Many Western books on arithmetic, such as Euclid's book, Pythagoras' book, Fibonacci book, and Descartes' book, will also be sent to me this time. He was also worried that I didn't know much Spanish, so he had to send me a few teachers who were proficient in Western to teach me Western. ”

Western arithmetic books? Western teacher? Why is the emperor's hobby so strange?

The ministers below were stunned for a moment, this emperor wants to like beauties, treasures, and antiques, and everyone always has a way to find them. But this Western arithmetic and Western language can't!

Just when these loyal ministers and good servants of the Qing Dynasty were pondering whether to learn Western arithmetic and language as well, Emperor Kangxi had already changed the topic: "Now the Haoao Portuguese, who support Ao Bai and Wu Sanwei and the two thieves, have been defeated by Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao, and even their St. Paul's fortress has been broken. Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao also said in the inscription that the East Indian officials and merchants of the Western Hongmaoheyi and Hongmaoyingyi, as well as the Luzon governor of Frangi (Spain), heard that our Chaotian soldiers had broken the Portuguese Yi, and they all sent envoys to Haoao to ask for trade, and also said that they would never sell guns and gunpowder to Wu Sanwei and Aobai.

Wu Sanwei and Ao Bai have lost foreign aid, while Shang Zhixin, the prince of Pingnan, and Li Lan, the governor of Guangdong, respectively defended Shajiao, Baiyunzhai, Zhangmutou, and Tamsui Field, blocking the road for Wu and Ao thieves to invade Dongguan and Huizhou. These two thieves are now trapped in Shenzhen, Kowloon, and Xiangdao, with no reinforcements outside and a lack of population inside, even if they will not be defeated for the time being, it will be difficult to become bigger. When Chen Fufu led the sea route to aid the water division south, it was time for the two thieves to be defeated.

As for Sun Yanling, Zu Zeqing, Ma Xiong, Guo Yi and other four thieves, with Wang Fuchen and Kong Sizhen staring at them, they can only guard their homes. The situation in Huguang also seems to be quite stable. Although there are rumors from time to time that Wu Guogui is about to join the army, I have already deployed 10,000 new troops of the Eight Banners and 10,000 new troops of the Green Battalion in Huguang, plus the garrison flag army and the green battalion that were originally placed in Huguang, it should be no problem to resist.

So now it seems that the most dangerous is still the Shaanxi-Gansu battlefield. Once Wu Sangui is allowed to leave Qishan or cross the Qinling Mountains and enter Guanzhong, the general trend of the world will really collapse! ”

Kangxi was relatively relaxed when he talked about the battle situation between Liangguang and Huguang, with a numb face and a smile, and he seemed confident. But when his words moved to the battlefield of Shaanxi and Gansu, he was worried about the country and the flag!

The current "Battle of Qing and Wu" is basically playing Ming chess!

In the past few months, in addition to collecting all parts of Sichuan and Guizhou, Wu Sangui marched into Shaanxi, took most of the areas of Hanzhong and Xing'an before the heavy snow closed the mountains and roads in the tenth year of Kangxi, and began to buy grain at high prices in Hanzhong and Xing'an, and even sent out many famous people in the 45th year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty (11th year of Kangxi) in order to raise grain.

And the second son of Wu Yingqi and Wu, who shocked the Eight Banners in the decisive battle of Rongxi Bridge, was also sent to Hanzhong to supervise the army!

This makes it clear that Wu Sangui is going to go out of Qishan and cross the Qinling Mountains to march into Shaanxi and Gansu!

Kangxi's face sank a little more, and then he continued: "Mo Luo, the governor of Gansu and Shaanxi, and Jia Hanfu, the governor of Shaanxi, have been playing songs recently, saying that there are ballads of 'welcoming the king of the west and all fields' in all parts of Shaanxi!" Moreover, the prefectures of Guanzhong, northern Shaanxi and Gannan also posted notices everywhere that Wu Sangui had obtained the fertile soil of the whole Sichuan, and the people of Sichuan were slaughtered by the Manchus, so now there are fewer people and more land, which can be distributed to the poor men in Shaanxi and Gansu.

This is just nonsense! The people of Sichuan were obviously killed by Zhang Xianzhong, how dare they rely on my Daqing? Although this is all nonsense and rumors, there are many ignorant people who believe it, and now the hearts of the people in Shaanxi and Gansu are fluctuating, and a group of ignorant poor people are thinking that Wu Sangui will really call for nothing, but I am afraid that many people in Shaanxi and Gansu will respond. ”

Having said this, Kangxi's tone had become cold and gloomy, and he was about to grit his teeth.

The expressions on the faces of the scholars and Hanlin scholars kneeling at the bottom also became extremely dignified along with Kangxi.

Wu Sangui has obviously not been idle all these years, and he must be working hard to improve his rebellion skills, and it is quite effective. Now as soon as he makes a move, he will take a knife and pierce the weakness and vital point of the Qing Dynasty!

not only directly penetrated the key point of Shaanxi and Gansu, but also sacrificed the big move of dividing the land equally!

And how powerful were the poor men in Shaanxi and Ganshan who used the fertile fields of Sichuan to tempt the poor men in Shaanxi, Gansu and Shaanxi? When Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng broke into the king, they shouted that Juntian was exempted, and in the end, he was exempted some, but Tian did not arrive.

But now Wu Sangui looks like he really wants Juntian, and it is also a good field in Junchuan! This is going to let him go to Shaanxi and Gansu, and casually launch hundreds of thousands of old Qin troops for you to fight hard with the Qing Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty is still so mixed?

A very soft voice said: "Your Majesty, or, why don't we all go to the field?" ”

What?

Can the Qing Dynasty also engage in Juntian?

The big guy looked at the voice and found that it was Xiong Ci who was speaking.

Kangxi frowned and asked, "Xiong Cixu, you said that I would also learn from the Third Prince of Zhu and Wu Sangui in the Qing Dynasty to engage in Juntian?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that everything should always go, think about the bad side, in case" Xiong Cixu said this, his face was already covered with beads of sweat, and he couldn't talk anymore.

But Kangxi is a clever emperor? Will you wonder what Xiong Cishu's "what if" is?

That must be in case Wu Sangui's craftsmanship is stronger than Zhuge Liang's when he comes out of Qishan, so what should the Qing Dynasty do?

"But where can I find so many good fields for the poor people below?" Kangxi frowned, "If Sichuan is not lost, then I still have a large piece of good land in my hand to release it." But now Sichuan has "

When Kangxi said this, his face suddenly changed, and he looked at Xiong Cixu fixedly.

Xiong Cixu hurriedly bowed to the ground and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, there are still countless fertile fields in Liao outside the Guan"

"What did you say?"

Before Kangxi could speak, Suo Etu had already shouted, "Outside the Guan, it's the retreat of our Eight Banners!" Do you want to give it to the Han people? ”

"That is, outside the gate is the ancestral land of Manchuria!"

"The land outside the customs must not be moved!"

"Your Majesty, please give me the bear!"

This is going to shout "kill" and "punishment"!

But Xiong Cixu was frightened, lying there trembling, not to mention regretting it in his heart - he is not a Manchurian, what the hell are you doing with that heart, it's a big deal that Wu Sangui is here and he will be a second minister!

He was repenting here, when Chen Tingjing, who was on the side, suddenly shouted: "What is the use of the Manchurian ancestral land that you are talking about in the future?" ”

What is it for?

Do you still need to ask? Of course, when the Central Plains can't stay anymore, run back to the gates!

But it doesn't seem convenient to say that now, right?

Aren't you discussing how to fight Wu Sangui now? The battle for the defense of Guanzhong hasn't started yet, so I'm thinking about running away, isn't it appropriate?

For a while, no one answered Chen Tingjing's question.

Chen Tingjing gritted his teeth and simply replied by himself: "Isn't it that the first emperor is worried that the children of the Eight Banners will not be able to stand in the Central Plains, if there is a case, so that there is a way to retreat, can we wait for the future?" But now, who will still cultivate the fields and cultivate the land? No matter how fertile the land outside the customs is, it can't be cultivated, so can it be that it can still grow food on its own? ”

This really made a group of Manchurian scholars ask questions.

No matter how fertile the land outside the customs is, it will be impossible to turn up grain in the hands of the children of Beijing Baqi who can't farm!

If you have land and no food, don't you still have to starve to death?

Chen Tingjing took a sharp breath, and then said: "Besides, if Wu Yi can really possess the Central Plains one day, will he let go of the fertile land outside the Guantong?" Even if he doesn't want it, can the soldiers under him who stretch their necks and look forward to dividing the land and land? ”

That's it!

If Wu Sangui and his soldiers swept the Qing Dynasty out of the Central Plains, would they still be able to let go of the Northeast Na Yan?

If Wu Sangui took advantage of the sharp spirit of seizing the Central Plains to wave his army east out of Shanhaiguan, with a vote to sweep the Central Plains veterans, fight a group of Daqing water dogs who can't farm and starve on the fertile soil outside the pass?

Emperor Kangxi had already made a decision in his heart, nodded and said, "What Xiong Cixu and Chen Tingjing said makes sense. In terms of taking 10,000 steps back, if I really want to temporarily retreat outside the pass, I have to arrange for someone to reclaim the fertile land outside the pass in advance! Otherwise, there will be a barren area outside the gate, and it won't be tenable for me to go with the children of the Eight Banners! ”

"Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty."

Several scholars at the bottom felt that Kangxi's words were a little frustrated, but they wanted to admonish, but they didn't know what to say? After all, Shunzhi and Dolgon turned the Northeast into a "self-reserved land", isn't it just to prevent the Han people from rebelling one day, and their descendants can't beat them, can they still have a place to run?

And now. It seems that it is a little unbeatable. Kangxi prepared in advance and recruited some farmers from Guannai to go to the Northeast to reclaim, what's wrong? If you don't do this now, you won't be able to do it in the future, and you will run out in a panic and have no food!

Kangxi saw that the scholars below him were silent, so he waved his hand and said, "You don't have to say it, I know it in my heart. However, the matter of reclaiming the northeast is related to the fortunes of the country, and I must not act rashly, and I have to go to the empress dowager for advice. Before the Empress Dowager gives me an edict, no one should say that this is my will! ”

"Servants obey."

The ministers below hastened to receive the decree.

Kangxi said again: "I still have an idea, I want to listen to your opinions today, the gains and losses in Guanzhong are related to the rise and fall of my Qing Dynasty, and I must not ignore it!" Wu Sangui will inevitably be personally conscripted in this battle, and if I don't drive the personal conquest, does it seem that I am afraid of Wu Sangui? ”

"Your Majesty, do you want to drive the expedition?"

"Your Majesty, no!"

"Your Majesty, you are going to drive the imperial expedition in person, who is watching from the Jingshi? In case there is something in the Kyoshi."

Where did the university scholars at the bottom dare to let Kangxi drive in person? Yue Le can't beat Wu Sangui, wouldn't it be more dangerous for Kangxi to go out? In case something goes wrong, what can the Qing Dynasty do?

But Kangxi had already made up his mind, he didn't listen to anyone's words, and waved his hand at the moment and said: "Jingshi has the Empress Dowager, Fuquan and Changning guarding them, what can go wrong?" Moreover, I only went to Xi'an to sit in Guanzhong, and I would not go to the front line in person, just like the story of Emperor Wei Ming's personal expedition to Chang'an. ”

Hearing what Kangxi said, the university scholars and Hanlin scholars at the bottom really didn't know how to persuade the emperor to drive the expedition in person and let the brothers guard from house to house!

This scene is familiar!

Wasn't that what Ming Yingzong asked Wara to arrest?

Although Kangxi only said that he would go to Chang'an to sit in the town, he would not go to the front line in person. But who can say for sure about the war? Now it is rumored everywhere that Wu Sangui is going out of Qishan, maybe this is a game? What if Wu Sangui wanted to use Wei Yan's Meridian Valley strategy to sneak attack Xi'an across the Qinling Mountains?

But who would dare to say that? Kangxi, King Yu, and King Gong have an iron relationship with their three brothers, if you want to persuade Ming Yingzong and Ming Dynasty Sect, isn't that a division between the heavenly brothers?

Besides, isn't there an old queen mother who can stabilize the overall situation?

After Kangxi finished the military discussion in the south study room that day, he asked Xiao Guizi to take the report book on Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao, and went to Cining Palace to report the good news to the old queen mother.

During this time, there was a lot of bad news from all over the world, but there was almost no good news." The victory of Haoao "is finally a rare victory, and it is time to make the old queen happy."

When Kangxi arrived at Cining Palace, he was almost stuck in the meal, and the old lady was preparing a meal with the grandsons Fuquan, Changning, and Longxi! Seeing Kangxi rushing over, Kangxi's little brother Longxi is only twelve years old this year, and his temperament is quite lively, and when he saw Kangxi coming in, he shouted loudly: "Brother Huang, why are you so happy today?" Is it that Wu Sangui's traitor has been punished by God? ”

Kangxi smiled: "Old Seven, you think too beautifully, Wu Sangui's old thing is still very strong now, and he is about to go out of Qishan!" ”

As he spoke, Kangxi had already arrived in front of the old lady, and then made a thousand salutes: "Grandson greets Huang Mama." ”

The old lady smiled: "Xuan Ye, you came just in time. It's about to start! You've been very busy lately, and you haven't come to eat with the mourning family for a few days, right? ”

"Huang Mama," Kangxi sat down with a smile, and then took the inscription book of Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao from Xiao Guizi's hand and handed it over, "Look at this. This is the title book of Wang Fuchen, Wang Zhongxiao and their grandfathers, and they have already laid the fortress of Haoao. It was a Western fortress that was stronger than the city of Reshalan on Dayuan Island, and Sun Er thought that they would fight for a few months, but he didn't expect to take it in a month!

Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao's ability to fight is really getting more and more powerful! ”

"It's amazing, it's amazing, but I don't see them winning Aobai, Wu Sanwei, and even Sun Yanling, and they haven't settled it until now!" The old lady was obviously very dissatisfied with the failure of Wang Fuchen's father and son to "actively fight the civil war".

"Huang Mama," Kangxi said, "no matter what, the battle situation between the two Guangxi has stabilized." Sun Er estimated that Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao's army had some losses in Haoao, and they would have to make up for it for a few months, and they would be able to march to Gao, Lei, Lian, Liu and other places this summer. I want to issue a decree to him and Kong Sizhen to make Sun Jiqing the general of Guangxi, do you think it will work? ”

"Don't be a Guangxi general," Bumu Butai waved his hand, "If you want to seal it, you will seal the king of the south!" The title of the king of Dingnan can not only reassure Kong Sizhen, but also reassure Shang Zhixin and Geng Jingzhong. As long as they are relieved, Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao, the father and son, should be able to divide one side with peace of mind! ”

Kangxi nodded and said with a smile: "It's still the emperor's mother, and this is the same as Liu Bang's envelope to Han and King Qi!" ”

"Yes!" Bu Mu Butai smiled, "The most important thing now is to beat Wu Sangui. As long as it can help, even if there are a few new vassal kings, it's nothing! ”

"Huang Mama, my grandson thinks the same way," Bu Mu Butai said, "My grandson wants to announce the royal expedition and go to Xi'an to supervise the battle after the spring blossoms!" ”

"What?" Bumu Butai was stunned, "Is it that serious?" ”

Kangxi nodded and said, "The situation in Guanzhong is unstable. Yue Le's troops were newly defeated, and if I didn't go to the town to boost morale, I was afraid that the armies of Shaanxi and Gansu would collapse at the slightest touch. If there is a loss in the pass, then the trouble of the Qing Dynasty will be great. Because in the eyes of their Han people, according to Yunguichuan is only the lord of the world, and it is difficult to become a climate, and Guanzhong is better than the world, and since ancient times, according to Guanzhong and the whole world, there are Zhou, Qin, Han, Sui, and Tang! Therefore, I have to go to Guanzhong in person no matter what, and I can't be worse than Cao Rui, Emperor Wei Ming. ”

Bu Mu Butai knew that this grandson had a big idea, so he didn't raise any more objections, but asked Kangxi: "Xuan Ye, after you leave the Beijing Division, who will stay in the Beijing Division?" ”

"Grandson wants to invite Huang Ma and Fuquan to stay in Beijing!" Kangxi looked at his fifth brother Chang Ning again, "I still want Chang Ning to stay in Shengjing outside the Guanxi!" ”

"Let Chang Ning go to Shengjing?" Bumu Butai was taken aback again, "What? Is the situation really so critical? ”

Kangxi said with a solemn face: "Huang Mama, I always have to do the worst plan first. If there is really any case, everyone will have a way out. Therefore, before leaving Beijing, my grandson plans to take out 10 million acres of wasteland outside the customs to the Han people who have no land and little land in the customs area."

Bu Mu Butai thought for a while, nodded lightly and said, "Xuan Ye, you are the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and you have to take the big idea yourself!" If you really make up your mind, the mourning family will definitely support you! ”
