Chapter 1210 Rescue soldiers of the Celestial Dynasty are charged!
Seeing the three monarchs and ministers chatting about Jinling Women's University and the examination to select a concubine, Bahabandi who came from the Jungar Kingdom was a little stupid - why didn't you talk about saving Jungar? This is a major military and national event.
Son! You are all famous ministers of the Holy King! Why do you put aside military and state affairs and discuss female sex...
Emperor Zhu also saw Bahabandi in a daze with his mouth open at this time, so he smiled and said to him: "Envoy Jungar, I already know about Aurangzeb's good intentions. I will send an envoy by sea later."
Go to Tianzhu to discuss this matter with Aurangzeb. In addition, I will also write a letter to Princess Nisha, and you will take it back to Jungar and find an opportunity to hand it over to Aurangzeb."
Is that all?
Bahabandi had forgotten even the decree, and just kept asking: "Your Majesty, when will you send troops to rescue the Jungar Kingdom? Now there are the Timurid Kingdom, the Persian Kingdom, the Rakshasa Kingdom, the Hill Kingdom, the Turkmen Kingdom, and the Kazakh Kingdom.
(Turkmen and Kazakhs are actually not countries, but a bunch of tribes.) When the six-nation coalition forces arrive, I will be unable to support myself alone!"
What? We still need to send reinforcements? Zhu Cixiang looked embarrassed.
Who should be sent to go so far away? 9,000 miles! It would take three months to reach 100 miles in one day, and supplies had to be ensured along the way. Emperor Zhu could afford the troops that could travel 100 miles in one day, but 9,000 miles along the way.
The supply is not easy!
"Envoy Zhungeer, don't be anxious," Zhu Cixiang couldn't give a reply for a while, so he had to comfort Bahabandi, "The matter of sending troops still needs to be discussed by both governments. It's getting late today and there's no time for a meeting. How about this?
, you go back to the memorial hall to rest for a day, and then go to the Generalissimo's Mansion tomorrow afternoon to hear the news!"
Hearing the news? Bahabandi thought: Is it good news or bad news?
Because they had to discuss the war with Indian Asan and marriage, the meeting between the two governments was held in advance the next day. At three o'clock in the morning, the ministers gathered in the conference room of the East Nuan Pavilion of Huangji Palace and sat around the long table.
One lap. Emperor Zhu has not arrived yet. At this time, he should be still doing morning exercises. It is summer now, and he should be swimming in the "big pool" of Laoshan Palace - Zhu Cixi's emperor is very legitimate, but of course he does not want to be young.
Died young! Many emperors of the Ming Dynasty died young! So he had to be careful and work hard to exercise.
The emperor didn't come, so the ministers began to discuss it, because this time things were a bit strange, marriage and war could come together!
What did Aurangzeb want to do?
In addition, to what extent should the war between the Ming Dynasty and the Timurid Empire, the Persian Empire, and the Rakshasa Empire go?
A fight is definitely necessary!
The vassals of the Ming Dynasty were beaten, and it was not a small-scale friction, but "hundreds of thousands of troops" (so-called) came to attack the country aggressively to destroy the country. How could the Ming court tolerate such a thing?
But to what extent the war between the Ming Dynasty and these three countries will go, we need to think carefully.
Because the Ming Empire is too far away from these three countries, and these three countries are all big and powerful countries, with the current national power of the Ming Dynasty, it is impossible to destroy them.
There is also the Shire Khanate, although it is not so big that it cannot be destroyed, but people say that the local snakes in the river area have always had strong soldiers and horses. Its core, the Khwarezm Oasis, is located in a remote place, and it is not easy to get there from the Shibao King City!
There is another issue that we have to consider, that is, if the Jungar Kingdom grows too much, it might be a problem!
After all, King Sengge of the Jungar Kingdom is a descendant of the Grand Master Walaye. Their family has great ambitions and has always wanted to replace the Golden Family and become the Khan Clan of Mongolia. In order to achieve their wish, they may be able to raise funds after they become stronger.
Raise the banner to revive Great Mongolia.
So the ministers started to argue.
"This Zhungeer is really capable of causing trouble. He provoked three powerful countries at once, and even came to the imperial court to send troops for rescue... The imperial court had just finished fighting the Dutch, and the war on the Malacca Peninsula and Sumatra Island was still going on.
Being dragged into the war with Timur, Persia, Rakshasa, and Hill by Junger, I didn’t even have a chance to breathe!”
"The war with Timur, Persia, and Rakshasa is nothing. No one can destroy the other anyway... The key is to control the scale and not make the war bigger. Both Timur and Persia can invite the British
If someone comes forward to mediate, start the fight in the river and don't burn the war elsewhere. Only the Rakshasa Kingdom is in trouble. They also have conflicts with the two vassal states of Tumote and Chahar. There have been constant frictions in the past few years!"
"There will be no trouble for the Hill Country, the Kazakh Country, and the Turkmen Country. Although they can't offend us, what will happen if the Sengge is destroyed? The Jungar Country is already big enough now. If they swallow up Xiao Yuzi again, what will happen?
Markand Oasis, Khwarezm Oasis, Bukhara Oasis and Turkmen Sands... Haha, another huge Timurid Empire!"
"Isn't that true? How many people are there in the main headquarters of the Jungar Kingdom? There are only 120,000 households, how can they occupy such a large area? Moreover, the Jungar Kingdom is based on Buddhism, and those places are the world of Tianfang believers. I guess
To hold on to the Jungar Kingdom until it dies is like a Xiliao..."
While the ministers were chatting, one of the imperial guards shouted: "The Holy One has arrived, and all the officials are respectfully welcoming him!"
When the ministers heard that the emperor had arrived, they stopped arguing. They all stood up respectfully and bowed to Zhu Cihong who had just finished his morning exercise.
"I respectfully wish His Majesty the Emperor peace!"
"Holy greetings!" Zhu Cixiang waved to the ministers with a smile, "Everyone, sit down, please sit down."
As he spoke, he himself sat on the throne at the head of the long conference table. A eunuch in charge of rituals came over holding a stack of memorials and placed the memorials in front of Emperor Zhu.
Zhu Cihong picked up the top one and opened it to see that it was a memorial for King Sengge of Zhungeer to ask for help.
"The Kingdom of Jungar, a vassal of the Chinese dynasty, reported that it was jointly attacked by Timur, Persia, Rakshasa, Shir, Turkmen, Kazakh and other six countries. It was in danger and asked our Ming Dynasty to send troops to rescue..." Zhu Cihong paused
After a pause, "I think that since this Zhungeer vassal state is a vassal of the Celestial Empire, the Celestial Empire cannot just sit back and watch as it faces the danger of national subjugation without saving it, but the Celestial Empire cannot send troops in vain either!"
What? Not sending troops in vain? The ministers were all surprised. Does it mean that there is a fee for the Celestial Empire to rescue the vassals?
"Your Majesty," Shi Kefa, who had just replaced Qian Qianyi as the Minister of Rites, was the first to ask, "I heard that the Jungar Kingdom is very poor... I'm afraid I can't spend a lot of money to hire reinforcements from the Celestial Empire!"
"I know that the Jungar Kingdom is poor," Zhu Cixiang smiled, "but the Jungar Kingdom is very big! It is three thousand miles from east to west and three thousand miles from north to south. If we defeat Timur, Persia, and Rakshasa this time,
The six countries including Hill, Turkmen, Kazakh and others are bound to expand again. Since the Celestial Empire has sent reinforcements, shouldn’t it be allocated some land of the Kingdom of Dzungar?”
Is this still possible?
Shi Ke was stunned for a moment. According to Emperor Zhu's approach, after the Wanli Korean War, shouldn't a piece of Korean land also be cut off?
Zhu Cixiang said: "The dynasty is the father, and the vassals are the sons. When a son is in trouble, of course the father must help. But the son cannot call his father in vain, and should repay his father within his ability. A father's contribution to his son is kindness, and a son's repayment to his father is filial piety.
Only when the father is kind and the son is filial can the Celestial Empire prosper. In the past, the Celestial Empire aided Korea without taking any cents, which meant that it did not give Korea the filial piety of a son. But during the Yongle period, it first aided Annan and then annexed its country, and lost the kindness that a father's country should have. This
Both approaches are inappropriate and I will not do it. I will agree with Seng Ge’s envoy on good terms and then send reinforcements. This is the kindness and filial piety that a country of father and son should have!"
Shi Kefa had been a local official for many years and had just joined the Central Committee. He was a little uncomfortable with Emperor Zhu's practice of "settling accounts between father and son". He opened his mouth and didn't know what to say. However, Wei Zaode, the first assistant, had long been accustomed to this kind of abacus.
The emperor was so shocked that he immediately took over the conversation and asked: "I wonder if your Majesty wants the Kingdom of Jungar to donate that piece of land?"
Zhu Cixiang had already made a plan, and immediately said with a smile: "The heart of the army is the Mongols. The Mongols want to graze, so I don't want the large plains and pastures... I want to focus on the mountains! I heard that the Chu River
There is a large lake in the Tianshan Mountains to the east, which was called Daqingchi in the Tang Dynasty. The surrounding area is quite fertile and sparsely populated, making it suitable for farming. I want to come here and set up a vassal state in the future to guard the western frontier for the Celestial Empire together with Zhungeer.
