Xu Changqing was not worried that the Western Army would take the trap.

If it were Dashun Jun and Li Zicheng's side, such a transaction might be difficult to negotiate, because the composition of Dashun side is more complicated.

Li Zicheng's authority may not have much problem at this time, but he also cared about more things.

There is no such obstacle in the Western Army.

Their basic foundation is very small, and their core is basically Zhang Xianzhong's godson. It is not difficult for Zhang Xianzhong to say a word.

To be honest.

Li Zicheng may have a better mind, ambitious and has a strong look, but in some specific details, especially the skill of identifying people, he is really not as good as Zhang Xianzhong.

Any of Zhang Xianzhong's godsons are outstanding people in the world.

On the contrary, in the Dashun Army, except for Liu Zongmin and others, the younger generation, the successor was quite weak. Even though the baby camp was well cared for, no "Sun Wukong" appeared in the end.

Even Li Laiheng is really different from Li Dingguo, Sun Kewang, Liu Wenxiu and others.

This precious opportunity that can directly strengthen one's own strength, even improve one's basic foundation, and covet more things is difficult to refuse, whether it is Zhang Xianzhong or his godsons.

...

The next morning, before Xu Changqing met Wang Si, he explained to Wang Si the details of the model arms sales. Pan Duao and Li Laiheng came to the news that they agreed with Xu Changqing's plan, but hoped to discuss the price again.

Xu Changqing did not avoid Wang Si in this matter. Wang Si was stunned when he looked at it, and he didn't know where to put it.

What's the meaning?

When did this guy Xu Changqing actually get involved with Zhang Xianzhong? This...

"Haha, Fourth Master, you don't need to be too nervous. That's roughly what it means. Go back and report to Emperor Yongchang, Xu Changqing, and I, in Haicheng, are waiting for the good news of Emperor Yongchang."

"……yes……"

After seeing off Wang Si who was almost like a robot, Xu Changqing stood up, stretched comfortably, and looked at the huge map of the world.

This map is a brand new one, and has been supplemented by experts brought by Zheng Zhilong. It not only includes the Ming Dynasty, Nuergandus, and Siberia, but also has many areas in Nanyang.

At first glance, this already has a bit of the meaning of a map of the world in later generations.

Xu Changqing lit a bag of cigarettes and looked at it carefully.

At this time, the world looked quite chaotic and mixed, but if you look closely, many things are actually clear.

Even though the refugee army still has many remnants, whether it is Li Zicheng or Zhang Xianzhong, the current state has basically lost its power to compete, the whole world, and the Ming Dynasty's bilateral competition against the Qing Dynasty.

At this time, the Qing Dynasty seemed to occupy the most land, dominating the Mongolian grasslands, and occupying the capital, and having a lot of fertility, but this thing could not stand the closer inspection.

The Mongolian grasslands are indeed plump, but the population is withered. What the Qing Dynasty can really control is Korqin and nearby areas.

Although Lin Dan Khan's lineage had been in trouble for many years and was basically swallowed by the Qing Dynasty, they did not really control the Altan Khan's lineage.

Even if the 'King of Shunyi' Bu Shitu and his son Omubu were not very useful, they still had a wide influence in the Chahar grassland and surrounding areas with their ancestors.

In addition, the Three Jin and Qinchuan areas seemed to have been pacified by the Qing Dynasty and taken into account, but the complexity here was much more complicated.

Apart from those real Manchus and Han iron crops, who would really work for the Qing Dynasty?

At this time, the Qing Dynasty was suffocating the breath that several generations had accumulated over the years.

As long as they break their tone, the Qing Dynasty will be over.

At this time, Xu Changqing actually had the ability to challenge them. He really had a life-and-death showdown with the Eight Banners elites on the front battlefield, but he was still a little anxious and not very safe.

"call."

After breathing a long sigh, Xu Changqing forced himself to regain his covetousness for the Qing Dynasty and instead gathered in other places.

At this time, the world can basically be divided into several areas, or several forces.

The first to bear the brunt is Xu Changqing's Haicheng and Shandong region.

Xu Changqing's initial military post was the general of Shandong Left Association, including only two or three small counties including Haicheng and surrounding Zhanhua and Lijin.

These small counties are not directly controlled by Xu Changqing, and Xu Changqing can only occupy the corners and has to be constrained by them.

However, at this time, the actual control scope of the Model Army had steadily covered the entire Shandong Peninsula area, and with Haicheng as the center, extending westward to Dezhou, Linqing, and even Daming Prefecture and Puyang.

Although Xu Changqing did not really control the situation in southern Shandong, it was almost the same.

It can be said that in addition to the two giant beasts, the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty, Xu Changqing is the third!

From the controlled area of ​​the Model Army to the west is the Kaifeng area.

Although Kaifeng was nominally under the control of the Ming court at this time, as King Zhu Gongye of Zhou wisely retreated to the model army controlled area, the surrounding areas of Kaifeng were almost dead.

Going further west is the power of the two green flags.

Kong Youde from Luoyang and Wu Sangui from Hejian.

However, in the gaps between the western, southwestern, including the eastern, northeastern and southeastern Luoyang, there were still many local gentry forces who were eager toward the Ming Dynasty. They were all landlords' armed forces that were recognized and supported by Xu Changqing.

The distribution of the 800-mile Qinchuan is no longer detailed. It is basically the world of Wu Sangui and Bai Guangen, and Tang Tong also occupies a small area.

The Ningxia area from Qinchuan to the west is quite complicated.

Strictly speaking, this place is still a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, even if the Ming Dynasty's food and salary have long been unable to be paid.

There are more than a dozen former Ming generals including the fierce as a tiger, Li Guodong, Gao Jie, etc.

Don’t underestimate that they have few people. At this time, they are also a mess and fights often occur. However, their core forces have not suffered much damage in the previous series of wars, and their strength and combat effectiveness are not weak.

Therefore, even though Wu Sangui, Bai Guangen and others had already coveted Ningxia for a long time, they still did not dare to act rashly.

Qinchuan is a dividing point. Going south, you will reach Shu, which is the territory of the Xian thief Zhang Xianzhong.

But at this time, Zhang Xianzhong only occupied part of Shuzhong and northern Shu.

The south and west sides of Shu are still firmly controlled by the chieftains of various tribes. Due to the terrain and ethnicity, even Zhang Xianzhong dared not provoke them easily.

From Shu to the east, the area where Huguang and Shu is bounded, to be precise, Wushan and the surrounding areas of Bazhong. This is now the territory of "Cao Cao" Luo Rucai and He Yilong, the fifth camp of Gezuo.

Although this area is small and economic production is relatively backward, like Ningxia, Luo Rucai, He Yilong and others have not suffered any real heavy damage. The main force still exists and they all have certain strength.

However, they have already occupied the surrounding areas and they have seriously lacked opportunities for development, but they cannot break through this kind of shackles for a while.

Going further east and north to Bazhong, you will reach the most complex area at this time.

The Ming Dynasty court, Wu Sangui's tribe, and Bai Guangen's tribe, may soon add two green flags, as well as some of the Eight Banners soldiers of the Manchus, and Li Zicheng's Dashun Kingdom gathered.

At this time, Li Zicheng occupied Xiangyang, Yunyang and the seven or eight surrounding counties, and his territory must be incomparable to the past. However, the Dashun Army was the orthodox of the refugee army, and whether it was a skeleton or a talent, it was still the best. Not to mention the tens of thousands of elite troops, it was estimated that 100,000 soldiers who could fight were no problem.

It is definitely a force that still has a certain degree of competitiveness.

Wuchang is Zuo Liangyu's territory.

However, Xu Changqing just received the news that Zuo Liangyu seems to be in poor health recently and may experience major fluctuations.

Even though Zuo Liangyu's inheritance rights have been clear and the young marshal Zuo Menggeng can successfully take over, Zuo Menggeng and Zuo Liangyu are not on the same level.

In addition to Zuo Mengmei's existence, Xu Changqing can speak with Zuo Menggeng or Zuo Mengmei's biological father Qiu Lei.

Further down, Jiujiang is He Tengjiao's territory and will no longer be detailed.

Even if He Tengjiao has selfish intentions, he is a member of the court and is also a civil servant. If he loses the support of the court, his background will not be able to bear too much. In addition, his personality, character, etc., he will never betray the court easily.

Of course, little tricks are bound to be indispensable.

Afterwards, the Zheng family, which dominated the southeast in midsummer, was the only one.

But the Zheng family's situation is a bit special. It can be regarded as a huge force. If you calculate it carefully, you can't...

The core interests of their old nests are still in Anping, Quanzhou, Jin, Xia, and other regions, and the influence is more of a false sense.

Before they could really take the stage of history and participate in the competition, they were already pulled and pulled by Xu Changqing, and they were a little bit chaotic.

The most core reason here is that Brother Yiguan and Xu Changqing's brother-in-law Zheng Sen have not taken over yet!

At this time, Zheng Sen was not a man with no way out in history and had to defeat the Guo family.

This means that the operating space inside is too large.

Looking at the huge map and looking at the various forces, Xu Changqing put a small flag on his own, including Jiang Xiang from Datong and several toasts from the southwest.

Soon, the huge map was posted in colorful colors, and a smile appeared on the corner of Xu Changqing's mouth.

He really wanted to say: "Everyone here is all younger brothers."

But before things were done, Xu Changqing didn't want to make such a nagging statement even in his own private space.

Instead, Xu Changqing looked at Nanyang again.

The situation in Nanyang...

Xu Changqing didn't know what to say for a moment.

At this time, it was basically the territory of the Spaniards and the Dutch, but the Portuguese, especially the Eagle people, had begun to penetrate here.

In fact, if you really want to talk about it, whether it is Spanish or Dutch, they are all fucking chickens, what a thing.

Whether it is the Dutch or the Spanish, they can barely become a second-rate country in Europe, especially the Dutch, in a small place. Why do you occupy dozens of times the rich land of your country and enslave hundreds of times the huge indigenous people and Han immigrants?

Later, during the two world wars, these two countries didn't even dare to say a lot, and did not reveal any of the combat attributes at all.
To be continued...
