Chapter 227: The ambition to conquer the four seas, the enemy of the north

Just overseas, well, it cannot be said that it is overseas, it is the territory of our Ming Dynasty.

In today's world, whoever takes over is his own, and whoever has a big fist makes sense. If you want to fight Jiannu, the country's chickens, tiles and dogs from small countries overseas, and the army of three or five thousand people is enough to destroy the country.

Zhu Youxiao has realized that when a major disaster comes, it will be very difficult to resolve the land and resources of the Ming Dynasty alone.

The key is that the disaster lasts too long. It takes decades to survive, and no matter how much money the family has accumulated, it can’t stand it!

Therefore, when the war in Liaodong was not over and money was needed everywhere, Zhu Youxiao gritted his teeth and added boats to the navy.

After overthrowing the Eight Great Masters of Locust Merchants, Zhu Youxiao even took out two million yuan at a time as funds for the Navy to expand.

Historically, until the Ming Dynasty was destroyed, the advantages of the Navy were crushing, and there was no problem in becoming the leader in East Asia. Unfortunately, the powerful Navy was not as powerful as the Ming Dynasty.

Now, it is the exact opposite. Although Chen Yourong is old, a group of new navy generals are constantly standing out.

Looking at the appointment and promotion list on Chen Yourong's list, Zhu Youxiao was relieved when he saw some familiar names.

Among them are the future thieves on the sea, as well as the backbone members of the Zheng family. They are now under the Ming Dynasty and will conquer the Ming Dynasty and expand their territory.

"Emperor, those two women, Mongolian girls brought them here." Wang Tigan almost said the Tartars's bamboo stick, but he didn't know what the emperor's attitude was, so he changed his mouth stiffly.

Zhu Youxiao pursed his lips and continued to look at the list in his hand. He slowly raised his pen to make a reply, wrote down the explanation clearly, sealed the secret report, and asked the palace servants to bring the Mongolian girl in.

Hai Lanzhu and Bumubutai stayed in the Clothing Washing Bureau for more than two months, and they worked a lot, but they were not hungry and had never been beaten. Especially when they knew that their father, brother and relatives were just detained, they felt much more at ease.

Finally meeting the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and it was time to determine his destiny. The two girls couldn't help but feel uneasy, not knowing whether it was a blessing or a disaster.

When they entered the hall, the two of them did not dare to look up and knelt down and kowtowed, "The sinner of the Korchin tribe, pay homage to the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, long live, long live, long live."

The sinner?! Zhu Youxiao smiled and guessed that it was taught by Hai Lanzhu. Bumubutai is still young and must not be so scheming.

Zhu Youxiao was also a little curious about these two famous women in history.

"Raise your head."

Zhu Youxiao wanted to see Hai Lanzhu the most, why did Huang Taiji favor him? As for Bumu Butai, he could no longer become Xiaozhuang. Since he could not pretend, Zhu Youxiao was less interested.

Hai Lanzhu and Bumubutai heard the voice of the Ming Emperor, very young and kind, so they plucked up their courage to slowly raise their faces.

Zhu Youxiao's eyes first fell on Hai Lanzhu's face, and there was no stunning feeling, but it gave people a feeling that I wanted to continue to look at.

Oh, it turned out to be her eyes, clear and soft, like a pool of spring water.

As for appearance, aesthetics vary from person to person and from time to time. Compared with the real Ming people, Zhu Youxiao believes that there are also differences in this regard.

Hai Lanzhu also saw the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. She was very young, but sitting on the dragon throne, she showed a calm and mature feeling. Especially when she looked at her, she seemed to penetrate people's hearts. That confident and indifferent expression seemed to be in control.

The cheekbones are a little taller, and if paired with a different makeup and outfit, it may be even more unique.

Zhu Youxiao smiled, turned his eyes and looked at Bumubutai.

The little girl who is only twelve or thirteen years old has her eyes that are more flexible than her sister, and she can’t see anything special. History will no longer follow the old path, and Xiaozhuang and Da Yuer will no longer exist.

After sighing for a little, Zhu Youxiao raised his hand and said in a deep voice: "The Korqin tribe has been destroyed. Since you call it a sinner, you must also know where the sin is, so you don't need to mention this name again."

Hai Lanzhu and Bumubutai lowered their heads, their fantasies were shattered, and their hearts were miserable.

"God has the virtue of being a virtuous person, and I am not willing to kill more." Zhu Youxiao continued: "If Hailanzhu and Bumubutai are willing to naturalize the Ming Dynasty, their crimes can be avoided."

Hai Lanzhu kowtowed and said, "Long live the magnanimous forgiveness of the sinner. But if the father, brother and relative of the sinner can forgive the sin, don't talk about naturalization. The sinner is willing to be a slave and a servant to repay the grace of the sinner."

Zhu Youxiao smiled softly and said, "You don't have to be a slave or a servant, and I don't lack people to serve you. In this way, you can dance Mongolian dance and sing Mongolian songs? Show me a little, and I will consider it again."

Hai Lanzhu exchanged glances with her sister, lowered her head and said, "The sinner performed the Andai dance of the Korqin tribe for Long Live, praying for the gods to protect them, without any disasters or illnesses, and forever."

This little mouth is quite good at speaking. Zhu Youxiao smiled and waved his hand to indicate that he could start.

The Andai dance originated in Kulun, the southern end of the Korqin grassland. It was originally a shamanic dance used to treat diseases, which contained the meaning of praying for the protection of gods and eliminating demons and eliminating disasters. Later, it gradually evolved into a national folk dance that expresses joy.

In the Korqin area, during the festivals, on the days of celebrating the harvest, at weddings and banquets, people danced in the Annexed dance. Girls and wives waving their headscarves, young men took off their horse boots and danced barefoots, and children made faces and danced...

The usual performance form of Andai is in the yard, with dozens or hundreds of people ranging in size, forming a large circle, in which two singing and dancing experts sing and dancing. Everyone echoes their feet, swaying their clothes and dancing to accompany them, forming a lively and joyful scene.

Hai Lanzhu and Bumu Butai play the role of singing and dancing experts, singing and dancing. Although there is no warm atmosphere of accompanying dance, the song and dancing are melodious and melodious, and the movements are graceful and elegant, which is very ornamental.

Zhu Youxiao watched with a smile, but he had no intention of playing with them. He just made an excuse to forgive some nobles from the Korqin tribe, including Hai Lanzhu's relatives.

Naturalizing the Ming Dynasty and becoming a member of the Chinese nation's big family is a good solution to the northern border troubles.

What's more, although the Ming army joined forces with the Chahar tribe to destroy the Korqin tribe, its main purpose was to weaken Jiannu, which did not mean long-term friendship with Hudun Rabbit.

Zhu Youxiao believed that if Jiannu was destroyed, Hudun Rabbit would probably be the new enemy of the Ming Dynasty.

Although the Korqin tribe was destroyed, the herdsmen in their tribe did not suffer any major losses. The captured Korqin nobles still had a certain appeal and influence.

As for whether it will work in the future, Zhu Youxiao didn't care very much. Because if you kill these people, you won't get any benefits, so it's better to look at the long term.

The arrival of the peak period of the Little Ice River may have a more serious impact on the nomadic peoples in the north than the Ming Dynasty, which mainly farmed.

Therefore, the arrival of a major disaster can be said to be a challenge and opportunity. If the Mongolian tribes are weak and obvious in the face of natural disasters and use strategies, they can achieve twice the result.

Why can't Mongolian tribes in history be part of the Ming Dynasty if they can surrender to the Qing Dynasty?

Zhu Youxiao smiled and watched the singing and dancing of the two sisters, and had already made the final decision in his heart.

................

After trying hard to plan and shamelessly embrace money, the emperor had chosen a development path for several years, more than ten years, or even decades for the Ming Dynasty.

Although no one has realized this and understood the emperor's painstaking efforts and praised his wisdom. However, the development of the situation has seen great results, which is the emperor's plan over the past few years.

The Ming army in Liaodong continued to advance and occupied another wall fort, which was getting closer and closer to the Yahu Pass.

The reason why the emperor was cautious and cautious was that the generals below were very eager to fight and dared to take the initiative was actually very simple.

One cannot see it with his own eyes, but can only rely on guessing and estimation; the other is in the battle formation and has a more accurate understanding of the army's equipment, morale and combat power.

As the saying goes, know yourself and your enemy, you must have strong armor and soldiers, have sufficient food and salary, have clear rewards and punishments, have high morale, and be healed by injuries and cares about death. Only the generals leading the troops know the combat power of the troops they lead the best.

In the telescope's vision, the chariots were guided by the chariots, and the musketeers and grenadiers rolled forward along the road. The smoke and dust were rising from time to time, and the horse was surveillance running back and forth, reporting the situation ahead.

Kong Youde put down his telescope and immediately went to the earth slope. After listening to the horse's report, he ordered him to explore again.

In front of it was Songshukou, and Jiannu did not come to block the Ming army. Obviously, he did not have much confidence to hold on to this place. This has something to do with the terrain near Songshukou and the small fortress in Songshukou.

"After occupying the pine tree mouth, according to Mao Shuai's order, our army should build a stable position and wait for an opportunity to capture Qinghe Fort west to serve as a flange barrier." Kong Youde shook his horse whip and said to the general next to him: "Although it is a safe move, I don't know if the actions in southern Liaoning can attract the main force of Jiannu."

"Mao Shuai made it clear that this battle is estimated based on the strength of our army and does not consider the role of friendly forces." Zhang Jingping, Wu Tanhua in the second year of Tianqi, was already a guerrilla position and had very rich combat experience.

Kong Youde nodded and said, "Message delivery does take time. If you fight based on your own strength, there are indeed fewer unexpected variables."

If the Dongjiang headquarters attacks Jianzhou, it is necessary to be wary of the Liaoshen Jiannu being dispatched and attack from the west through Benxi. The occupation of Songshukou will be suspended and the Qinghe Fort is to protect the flanks.

The reason why Kong Youde's Mixed Association was made to serve as the vanguard was that they had fought large-scale field battles with Jiannu in southern Liaoning and achieved victories.

Kong Youde and Zhang Jingping were naturally full of confidence, believing that the troops, which had been expanded and equipped with troops, had a good chance of winning against Yiqi Jiannu.

The Ming army took the initiative to attack and forced Jiannu to take a defensive position. The information revealed further showed that he was weak and he was strong, and the battle situation in Liaodong had undergone a fundamental reversal.

"Hetuala is a place that Jiannu must defend. It is probably not easy for our army to capture it." Although Kong Youde also wanted to make contributions, he was not confused yet, knowing that Jiannu would not give up their so-called land of dragon prosperity.

Zhang Jingping deeply agreed, but he did not think they were fighting alone. Under the pressure of western and southern Liaoning, Jiannu's mobility was no longer much.
