Decades ago, Kanov, a wealthy Tsarist, a wealthy Tsarist who was operating fur, first smelled the huge wealth hidden in it, so he used the lease situation to gain power to expand eastward with the Tsar, and then recruited the gangster leader Yemak who was on the run for the crime and recruited soldiers and horses, gathered Kazakh soldiers and mobs, a total of 840 people, plus two pastors from the Russian Orthodox Church, crossed the Ula Mountains in the east and went to attack the Siber Khanate. After six years of battle, in the ninth year of Wanli of the Ming Dynasty, the Siber Khanate was finally destroyed by Yemak, which was less than a thousand people.

The Russian emperor was happy to see money and was expanded to the territory. He pardoned many people who committed evil and wanted to commit crimes, and sent five hundred cavalrymen, led by Yemak, and ordered him to continue to advance eastward with sufficient supplies, food, and arms. Later, he sent his confidant Kalita to accompany the army to supervise the income and expenditure, and formulated a conquering tax collection seal.

One of the laws of the conquered areas is that adults are required to pay seven minks each year as population tax, and only those baptized into the Orthodox Church will be exempted from their population tax, but one-tenth of their hunting must be paid to the public.

Although the people who were first led are dead, due to the effect of wealth, the new Tsar and the new East-invading leader still enjoy going east, east, and then east. Now, at this time, it will not take long to reach the seaside in the east.

Emperor Chongzhen happened to be online, thinking about learning about the war on Hai Lanzhu first, but he didn't expect that the war was not only over, but Hai Lanzhu also accidentally captured a Western Yi who knew Mongolian and learned so much.

After reading the private chat one by one, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

In later generations, he learned that Western countries that became powerful through the Industrial Revolution continued to colonize globally, whether in Siberia or North and South America, they did not recognize the rule of the locals, and they followed the principle that whoever found it belonged to the country. The basis was that these tribes were all barbarians, not worthy of sovereignty, and there were no written records.

For example, Western Siberia belonged to the Mongolian and Turkic ethnic territory before the Russians arrived, and Eastern Siberia was even more of the sphere of influence of the Tungusian tribe. Both the Mongolian Empire and the Qing Empire discovered this land earlier than the Russians and have lived there since ancient times.

Unfortunately, Western countries do not recognize this statement because neither Mongolia nor the Qing Dynasty has such written records, just as the Indians do not have written records. This so-called legal basis is actually very ridiculous. According to this legal theory, only Western countries in the world have the right to "discover" new territory and occupy it legally.

If it were just in the Age of Cold Weapons, these lands were of no value in the eyes of Central Plains countries such as the Ming Dynasty, and it would not matter if they were occupied by others. But Emperor Chongzhen knew how amazing the wealth contained in these lands was after mankind entered the industrial age! Moreover, if it weren't for Siberia, Tsarist Russia would not know how many times it would have been destroyed.

"Since I have come to this era, I must not let Tsarist Russia succeed!" Emperor Chongzhen thought to himself, made up his mind again, and sweared to himself.

There was indeed a lot of news about Hai Lanzhu, and he also received some reminders from it. After asking Hai Lanzhu to return safely, he withdrew from the chat group and thought carefully for a long time. Finally, he came up with a way to send troops to Siberia at the moment.

At this time, the wind has brought cold air and blown away the green of the grassland. In previous years, people on the grassland had to consider how to pass this winter! Most of the time, they were worried! And the inevitable routine may be to go south to hunt grass valley.

This matter actually takes a lot of risks. At this time, there will be prevention in the pass. Cultivating grass valleys and having bad reputations sound second, the key is to pay the price of life! If you are not lucky, sometimes there will be heavy losses in the teams heading south.

Nowadays, when the herdsmen on the grassland outside the pass are facing the threat of cold winter, they no longer have to worry about wintering, nor have they risked their lives to go south to hunt grass valley. The herdsmen who returned from grazing looked at the golden crops outside the city of Guihua, all of them smiled happily.

The Han people planted crops here, the Mongolians grazed here, and then under the management of the Governor's Office, the Han people had meat to eat and the Mongolians had food to eat, and they cooperated with each other. I don't know how many times better than before!

At this time, under the rule of Guihua City, both Han and Mongolia were full of hope for the future. They usually talked about it, and they were also planning for the future.

"If such a thing had happened, what would we, the Mongolians and Han people do for so many years? Why didn't we do this before?"

"It goes without saying that now we are all emperors, and we are all people of the Ming Dynasty. The emperor is wise and treats us equally, so this is why this is happening. If it were the past, whether it was the Khan or the Emperors in the Pass, they all took care of their own affairs, how could this good thing happen!"

"Actually, you are wrong. The main reason is that the current emperor is wise and powerful. Not only did he defeat Lin Danhan and the others, but he can also know the benefits of this land, allowing the Han people to come to plant crops on a large scale, and make up for the shortcomings of our Mongolians. In this way, God will have nothing to do with us!"

"Yes, yes, you're right. Since ancient times, it has been unified. Whether it was during Genghis Khan or when the Ming Dynasty occupied this place later, there was no such thing as it is now. In the final analysis, it is still the wise emperor of the present, which is also our blessing!"

"No, the emperor not only solved our food and clothing problem, but also built housing and schools for us. In the future, our children will no longer have to experience the hard days we have experienced!"

“…”

Most people, regardless of Han and Mongolia, are very satisfied. Of course, some people are not satisfied and long for their lives to go further, be officials, go to the capital, and go to the pass.

No matter what their ideas are, life will be like this.

On this day, the people near Guihua City suddenly found that cavalry teams rushed over from time to time and hurried into Guihua City. Those who knew each other were surprised. It seemed that all the generals under the rule of the Governor of Naturalization, even those in Baotou, came to the Governor's Office. Is this going to happen?

"Can it be that the Anti-Lat tribe wants to call me?" Someone guessed worriedly.

Immediately, someone retorted: "That's impossible, the Wei Lat tribe surrendered to our Ming Dynasty. Didn't you see last time? When their envoys returned from the capital, they were all very respectful to our Ming Dynasty. They couldn't have had the idea of ​​attacking us Hetao!"

"What would that be? Could it be Jianlu? Yes, it must be Jianlu. They want to come and rob our cattle and sheep and our food!" Someone suddenly realized and felt that their thoughts were right.

Some people also sneered at this speculation and immediately retorted: "This is impossible. Do you think it was the past! The Jianlu are now beaten by our army in the eastern part of the Ming Dynasty and can only hide in their nests. It is impossible for us to come to Hetao!"

It was impossible. In the end, someone pointed to the north and said with some doubt: "Then... is it the Khalkha tribe? But it's across the Daqing Mountains!"

This possibility is not great, because the Khalkha tribes in the north generally rarely go south directly bypass the Daqing Mountains, but migrate westward, and often conflict with western Mongolia.

As a result, these people couldn't figure out where the enemy came from. In the end, an older Mongolian said with a hatred: "No matter who is going to destroy these, I will never agree. I will fight with them!"

When other people, whether Mongolian or Han people, nodded, expressed their serious expressions, and must resolutely safeguard their own interests.

While there were a lot of discussion outside, the generals gathered from all walks of life in the lobby of the Governor's Office were mostly confused. While they were standing in the hall waiting for the Governor, their acquaintances were whispering to each other.

But the result of the mutual communication was still confused. I wonder what the Governor was trying to rush to tell everyone to come?

The doubt did not last long. As the footsteps in the back hall came, Hong Chengchou finally appeared.

"See Governor!" The generals held their fists and greeted each other, and looked at Hong Chengchou's face at the same time, but they didn't find anything wrong. This made them even more surprised. Could it be that the Governor summoned everyone to see if there was anything good?

After the ceremony, Hong Chengchou sat in the main seat to scan the generals below. Among these generals, there were those who were from the court official army, from the past thieves, and from generals who surrendered to the Mongolians. It can be said that the ingredients were a bit mixed.

Thinking of the emperor's will, he was a little surprised. No wonder the emperor handed over this job to Guihua City.

Thinking of this, Hong Chengchou slowly spoke: "In the Han Empire, when the Han Empire was in the past, the cavalry generals sealed the wolf's servants, and even reached the Haohai, leaving behind the glorious deeds of the Han Empire everywhere. At that time, although the world was big, no one had ever heard of the Han Empire! The enemy of the Han Dynasty had nowhere to hide, and was trembling when hearing the name of the Han Dynasty. All the races in the world respected the Han Empire and yearned for it..."

When the generals in the hall heard the opening remarks of the Governor, they couldn't help but look at each other, wondering what the Governor said meant?

Hong Chengchou naturally understood what the generals were thinking in his heart. He didn't care and said slowly: "General Huo Qubing, the Cavalry General, was awarded the title of Champion Marquis at the age of 17. Such great achievements are really admirable. I think of it so far. I think that Champion Hou is a role model for military generals!"

Not to mention the reputation of the champion Hou, even the Mongols, have heard of the reputation of the champion Hou. But they don’t understand why the Governor suddenly sighed that the champion Hou was coming?

However, no matter what they think, the Governor sighed that they had to respond. Therefore, no matter how some of them had never heard of the deeds of the Champion Hou, they all responded with their fists: "The Champion Hou is a role model for us!"

Hong Chengchou nodded and looked at the generals below, and seemed to sigh a little: "Actually, I think many of you have very good abilities, but they lack the opportunity like the champion marquis. Otherwise, I believe that among you, there should be someone who can also be named marquis!"

If the battle was defeated continuously, most generals would probably only think about saving their lives and winning the idea of ​​being a marquis immediately. But if the war goes well and morale is high, the generals will naturally be greedy and no longer think about just saving their lives, but wanting to be promoted and become a marquis.

Hearing this, many generals slowly figured out what the Governor said, as if they had a chance to make military achievements and get a chance to be granted a title of marquis. When they thought about it, these generals were immediately excited.

Hong Chengchou saw the expression of the generals below in the main position and changed his tone and suddenly said: "But we will naturally be here, and we will be resting in the past few years. As long as there is no enemy, we will not take the initiative to attack..."

Hearing this, the generals in the hall suddenly looked very wonderful, and they all slandered in their stomachs: What does it mean? Governor, although you are arrogant, these words are circling around, making us think of the title of the marquis, and then another plate of cold water poured down? Is it fun?

Of course, there are also several generals who are good at grasping people's hearts and hear something from the unusual words of the Governor. They can't help but be very curious and quietly expect the Governor to finish the words.

Sure enough, Hong Chengchou's face suddenly became solemn, and he clasped his fists and signaled to the capital: "However, I just received the emperor's order and have a chance to give it to you. As long as you can do it, not to mention wealth and honor, there will be a title for generals..."

Speaking of this, he looked at the faces of the generals below and suddenly emphasized: "It is not that you are asked to take the general's head among thousands of troops, nor that you are asked to destroy Jianlu. This opportunity is actually not very dangerous, and the most difficult thing is actually to endure hardships!"

When they heard this, all the generals were excited. They had the opportunity to worship the general and be awarded the title. What's the point of suffering! So they all clasped their fists and responded: "Just rely on the orders of the Governor!"

Hong Chengchou nodded when he heard this, looking at them and said, "The Emperor intends to continue to expand the territory northward, so that the Ming army will reach the northmost point, at the end of the sky. The former champion Hou drank Ma Haohai, and today the emperor thinks that I, the Ming general, can drank Ma Beibingyang! It is Haohai that goes northward, at the end of the sky. Along the way, conquer the tribes you encounter and make all tribes become citizens of the Ming Dynasty!"

"..." Hearing this, all the generals were speechless.

They were frightened by the emperor's ambitions, and even more frightened by the difficulty of this goal. You must know that there is a Khalkha Mongol in the north of Daqing Mountain, which is a large tribe of more than 100,000 people. With the current strength of Guihua City, it may not be possible to win!

Or knowing their concerns, Hong Chengchou immediately explained: "Of course, this expedition was to avoid the Khalkha tribe. The tribes they encountered were just small tribes..."
