Chapter 514 The North has no war since then
Lindan Batul, the 35th Mongolian Khan Borjijin, was defeated and fled near Guihua City. Su Tai and Ezhe surrendered with the imperial seal;
Dorgon, the Khan of the Later Jin Dynasty, was defeated and fled to Heilongjiang. Under the persuasion of Nara Zhongming, he surrendered to the Ming army.
Although the disaster is still continuing, society has been stable. This is due to the continuous transportation of grain from the south and overseas, and the proficiency of the imperial court and local governments in disaster relief work.
Therefore, the two good news came from the capital to the local area, which caused jubilation and shock.
Whether it was Mongolia or Jianlu, they were enemies of the Ming Empire's long-term confrontation.
But now, all of them have been defeated and surrendered, which means that the northern border troubles have been completely eliminated, and the peaceful and prosperous era of decades or even hundreds of years has arrived.
"The Qin Emperor, Han Wu, Tang Emperor, Song Zu, and Taizu, may not be as good as the achievements made by Long Live!"
"Compared with Emperor Wu and Tangzong of Han, the Western Regions have not entered the territory. However, Liaodong and southern deserts have entered the Ming Dynasty, but it is far superior to the two emperors!"
The capital city, at the foot of the emperor, is most sensitive to political and military changes. Even ordinary people can discuss it in teahouses and restaurants.
The Taiping Year has been counted since the Liao Dynasty. Since then, although the imperial court has launched wars continuously, it has taken the initiative and has not heard of the police in the border town for a long time.
But if it is a peaceful and prosperous era, it is obviously too early to call it before the disaster has passed. At least the emperor doesn't care much, or does not want such a description.
When the emperor's ambitions were overwhelmed, the emperor's ambitions were far from being realized. Peace was needed, but the prosperity was never achieved according to his standards.
Ezhe and Dorgon were on their way to Beijing. No matter how virtuous or foolish these two guys would never be released to their hometowns. Giving them a free job to raise them has great binding force on the Manchu and Mongolian tribes.
Traitors such as Fan Wencheng and Luo Xiujin are also on their way to escort and will be cut into pieces in the capital, thinking that those who are traitors are warned.
Although he knew the remnants of Jianlu's difficulties and hardships, even if he didn't beat them, he would almost become a savage in the mountains and forests. However, the final destruction still caused the emperor to lose the haze in his heart.
"It has been advanced to Heilongjiang." The emperor looked at the big sand table, his eyes flowing along the river to the sea, and then Kuye Island.
With the Tumen River and Heilongjiang two sea outlets in the northeast, it is crucial for development and construction.
The emperor's eyes moved north, which was far from his goal. Turning these two rivers into inland rivers, but the northern border has no end.
We can slow down our expansion. At least in the Northeast, to consolidate our foundation, we need to manage and manage for several years.
The emperor knew very well that it was only going to Heilongjiang now, and development and construction were far from involved. Even if it was about to be upgraded to Jilin Prefecture, which was about to be upgraded to a province, the level of development was not very high.
Of course, this is compared with later generations, and the emperor cannot be too harsh.
After all, the population is there, not to mention one billion, or 400 million. With current weapons and equipment and human resources for development and construction, the Ming Empire will dominate the world.
The surrender of Jianlu's remnants has added ready-made manpower to the operation in Heilongjiang area.
Some will be moved to Kuye Island, some will be resettled on the spot, cultivated and cultivated, and the other will be moved to Jilin Prefecture, which belongs to princes and ministers.
A few years have passed, and the remaining population of Jianlu has not increased, but has decreased by nearly 30%. It has to be admitted that without cold-resistant crops, the power of major disasters is indeed irresistible.
The destruction of the Tiger Dun Rabbit cannot be ignored. The climate is cold, the grassland moves southward, and the wind and snow are impermanent. For nomadic peoples, they are far less resistant than farming people.
"Emperor." Wang Tigan bowed and bowed to the back of the palace, presenting the latest document report.
As the eunuch in charge of seals, Eunuch Wang is the number one eunuch. However, now that he is old, he can't race against Taoyan and come to report good news to the emperor.
The emperor is no longer a young man, and he is full of mature temperament. This is not manifested in appearance or beard.
After reaching out to take the file, the emperor opened the simple reading and nodded with a smile, and put the file on the table.
The description of a soldier who was defeated without fighting is not appropriate. Relying on the increasingly powerful military power, the emperor did get the benefits that should have been obtained from the negotiating table.
The Portuguese finally bowed their heads and signed an alliance agreement with the court to share the overseas bases of both parties.
Luzon, Pontianak, Temasek, Shalian, etc. of the Ming Dynasty, Malacca, Ceylon, and strongholds on the east coast of India became common bases for both sides.
For the Portuguese, in Asia, the Ming navy was already an irresistible military presence. The decline of its own power and the strength of the Netherlands and Britain made the Asian strongholds they occupied in danger.
During the Battle of the Three Islands, the British-Dutch coalition forces repelled the Portuguese, causing them to lose control of the Strait of Hormuz.
The Dutch and the Kingdom of Johor jointly attacked Malacca. Although it failed, it meant the beginning of the alliance between the Dutch and the local forces in the South China Sea. The Dutch invaded the Portuguese colonial system in the Far East and will become more and more intense.
The alliance with the Ming Dynasty could not only resist the invasion of the Dutch and the British, but also snatch territory from them.
Besides, this is a covenant that benefits both sides. Don’t think that the Ming Dynasty’s military strength is not enough to defeat the Portuguese. In Asia, the Ming navy is already a hegemonic existence.
Give you some face, first politely and then soldiers. The Portuguese have seen the misery of the Spanish in Luzon and were expelled from the Asian market since then.
Therefore, the negotiations went smoothly. In the face of strength, the emperor did not believe that the Portuguese would not surrender.
If the negotiations break down, then fight! With the strength of the Portuguese in Asia, it is easier than fighting the Spanish.
It is precisely because Portugal has declined that the emperor chose to join forces with it. This is both a window to Europe and can also gain more overseas places through the Portuguese experience of sailing.
For example, the emperor was not afraid to join forces with the Portuguese and snatched it from the British and Dutch people.
As for the Dutch, the emperor was not in a hurry to start a war. They were allowed to occupy the Java area first, and the commerce continued to be maintained.
When Britain and the Netherlands fight and the Dutch are seriously damaged, it is the time when the emperor reaps benefits from the fisherman.
It is good to know that the trend of history is going, and the emperor can use it to the maximum extent.
With the Portuguese stronghold on the east coast of India, the Ming Navy entered the Indian Ocean and the military operations of the southwestern chieftain coalition could be carried out.
The emperor suddenly laughed and felt bored again.
What is rushing out of Asia and going to the world? What is the sun that doesn’t set, why can’t you be energetic? It’s far better to interact with concubines and play with your children, and be so happy.
Are you old? You are tired!
