Qianlong: Qing Dynasty?What about my Daqing?

Chapter 224 Qianlong must not be allowed to escape!
Julu County, Shunde Prefecture.

Zhu Daohua, son of the Great Tomorrow, is here at this time.

The army that had been sent out to surrender and pursue the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom had basically gathered back.

The Army's 7st Brigade and the [-]th Dragoon Brigade, including Luo Dingshan, have also been ordered to join Emperor Zhu's guards.

At this time in Julu County, Emperor Zhu had more than 7000 soldiers and horses under his command.

After a big battle, it is being repaired in the county seat.

The arrival of more than 2 troops has brought prosperity far beyond the past to this historic city that was lucky enough to escape the devastation of war.

On the one hand, it was because the Ming army had strict discipline and did not commit any crimes in the autumn. After Emperor Zhu entered the city, he immediately released the Annals List, which relieved the people of Julu County from worrying about the army passing through the border.

On the other hand, it was because the Guards Corps led by Emperor Zhu had to rest here for at least ten days.

Let the soldiers who have just experienced the war relax and rest, so now the army has implemented a rotation of vacations, and each soldier can get five days of vacation.

More importantly.

The soldiers of the Ming army were very well paid, especially the elite guards, who were basically non-commissioned officers. When they were fighting in the new army abroad, they had nowhere to spend their monthly salary.

So these days.

In Julu County, many temporary industries emerged around serving Ming soldiers.

Food stalls were set up outside the barracks, as well as the Goulan restaurant in the city, which was also very popular these days.

Let the people of Julu look forward to Emperor Zhu's army staying for a longer period of time, it is best to stay here permanently
But obviously, the wishes of the people of Julu are hard to come true.

For this short-lived prosperity disappeared as the soldiers returned from their holidays.

At this time, the Julu county government office.

Zhu Daohua, military advisor Tao Biquan, two corps commanders Wang Dayong, Luo Dingshan, and several chiefs of staff all had dumbfounding expressions on their faces.

That heavenly king, Liu Zhixie, actually came to his door by himself.

Oh.

It's not delivered to your door yourself.

It was sent to Julu City with eight sedan chairs.

It's behind the county government office now.

This was far beyond the expectations of Zhu Daohua and his staff officers.

The king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was not caught on the battlefield.

Instead, he was sent to Zhu Daohua, demanding that the Son of Heaven be punished.

At the same time, the princes and princes of the Taiping Kingdom also signed a letter, asking for the memorial of King Pingxi and detailed records of the current population and military strength of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

"Your Majesty, we have recruited hundreds of thousands of troops from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. After all, Liu Zhixie is a disaster. Why not?"

Tao Biquan said, making a beheading gesture.

Zhu Daohua frowned slightly, then shook his head and said, "Liu Zhixie deserves credit for raising troops against the Qing Dynasty and severely injuring the Eight Banners in the Northwest. How can he be killed at once, and be granted the title of Duke of Anle, and give the duke's house in Zhongdu to support him?"

"An Le Gong? Will it be too big?"

Tao Biquan said.

His own title was still a marquis.

And now there are only four people who are granted the title of Duke, Zhao Si, Duke of Song, Luo Fangbo, Duke of Lan, Napoleon Bonaparte, Duke of Jia, and Gu Song, Duke of Yu.

It's just a bunch of marquis, not even the county magistrate.

However, these titles are not small, but the actual benefits are not great.

On the one hand, there is no tax-free or legal-free privilege, and only some economic benefits can be obtained.

Noble annuity and house grants.

Moreover, the financial situation of the Ming Dynasty is very healthy now, and it is of course affordable to pay the nobles.

Seeing Tao Biquan's appearance, Zhu Daohua certainly knew what he was thinking.

The White Lotus Sect and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom violated the interests of the gentry.

Therefore, Tao Biquan, the leader of the gentry in Hunan, naturally did not like Liu Zhixie very much.

But Zhu Daohua did not intend to kill Liu Zhixie.

And the princes and generals of the White Lotus Sect.

All of them started their careers by mobilizing peasants and engaging in peasant movements.

He is one of the rare "experts on Chinese peasant issues".

The so-called one side listens to darkness, Zhu Daohua also wants to learn more about the peasant class. After all, he is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, so it is important to put on an attitude of loving the people like a son.

And I also want to use the Taiping Taiguo as a sharp sword to wipe out the demons in the west.

Zhu Daohua picked up the book in question.

King Ming of the White Lotus Sect?

Zhu Daohua shook his head, these cultists really have big brains.

However, the idea of ​​King Ming's sword sweeping away the demons in the West is worthy of recognition.

"Liu Zhixie can't be killed, and the princes and generals under him will try their best to surrender. Anyway, it's only a matter of hundreds of thousands of Ming Yuan." Zhu Daohua waved his hand.

Maybe these heavenly warriors will open up territories for China in the Americas in the future.

Otherwise, where would Boss Zhu find so many soldiers with war experience to go to the fields.

Of course.

How to control these heavenly soldiers will also be a problem.

But it's not difficult, it's nothing more than mixing sand and giving benefits.

Anyway, there must be tens of millions of Chinese people immigrating to America by then.

Therefore, these 10 people are only a small part, and they are all Han Chinese, so they can be digested easily.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, let these soldiers of the Kingdom of Heaven who have combat experience to pioneer and gain a firm foothold, and the subsequent immigration will be easier.
Since the soldiers of the kingdom of heaven are to be used, of course leaders of the kingdom of heaven like Liu Zhixie and Ran Tianyuan cannot be killed casually.

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom entrenched in Guanzhong must also be retained, but the name must be changed.

"As for Qi Lin, I will make him the king of Pingxi, and make him the king of Pingxi. He will replenish some weapons and food. In August and September of this year, he will set off to the west and let him take away the color eyes of the Western Regions. I want a Western Region of all Han people. Province! If this can be achieved, I can support King Pingxi to take the Fergana Basin of the Kazakh Khanate as his home and the western border of the Ming Dynasty."

The Western Regions Province is adding a Pingxi Fan.

Thousands of kilometers away from the core of China.

However, the unified Chinese dynasties of all dynasties will seek to control this area, which is a key area for China to expand its influence westward.

If Pingxi Fan can complete the two tasks of "enclosing the Western Regions" and "building the country in the Fergana Basin".

Then this Pingxi Fan has really contributed a lot to the country and the nation.

There is the fully Sinicized Western Region Province and the Pingxi Fan who can only be loyal to Ming Dynasty.

Daming had two iron fists in Central Asia.

Going west can expand its influence to the Middle East, going south can cooperate with many Indian vassals to resist the European colonists' coveted hegemony in Central Asia, and going north can attack the soft belly of Tsarist Russia.

It can be said that in terms of geopolitics, if they control the agricultural lands of the two Central Asian regions, the Western Regions Province and the Fernangan Basin, then the Ming Dynasty will be able to completely change the population structure of this area through immigration and reclamation, allowing the Ming Dynasty to compete for it in the future. When the Eurasian continent is hegemonic, it can firmly control Central Asia, the geopolitical highland of the Eurasian continent.

Emperor Zhu's calculations were quite shrewd.

After making a decision on the future of Taiping Taiguo.

Emperor Zhu came to the backyard and summoned Liu Tianwang, the Taiping Heavenly King.

Liu Tianwang sat on the chair with a calm expression on his face.

It seems that he has lost his heart.

On the contrary, the two people beside him, Lord of the Heavenly Kingdom, Luo Siju and Ran Tianyuan were all crying, with tears on their faces. It was obvious that the three of them had cried with their headaches in their arms.

But behind the three of them, there are still many generals from the kingdom of heaven.

All of them lowered their eyebrows and were pleasing to the eye, waiting for Emperor Zhu's final judgment.

They also lost completely.

I can no longer bring up the thought of confronting Daming.

Zhu Daohua looked at Liu Zhixie and said: "Liu Zhixie, you should be guilty of leading the army to fight against me, but I think you have made great contributions to the nation by fighting against the Qing Dynasty. I will spare you the death penalty and make you the Duke of Anle County in the Ming Dynasty. I will go to Zhongdu in the future Let's live for a long time."

Live in Zhongdu for a long time.

It means that without the will of Emperor Zhu, one cannot go to the capital, and even one can only live in the Anle County Government House for the rest of his life.
It was temporarily under house arrest.

But it's not bad if you don't pull it to the vegetable market and chop it with a knife.

Moreover, the Anle County Government House is quite large, at least it is much more comfortable than being in prison.

If caught by the Qing Dynasty, Liu Zhixie might not even have a chance of being chopped off with a single knife. He would have to cut his flesh slowly with a small knife, until he could cut up to three thousand knives.

So Liu Zhixie bowed his hands and sighed in his heart: "My lord, thank you for your kindness."

After Zhu Daohua arranged for Liu Zhixie, he looked at Luo Siju and Ran Tianyuan.

These are the two most capable of fighting in Taiping and Taiguo.

A general who was born in Ye Luzi was able to march and fight without a teacher, which shows that he is also talented.

"The two of you will be named earls temporarily, and go to the Daming Army Academy to study for three years."

Zhu Daohua said.

There will be many battlefields for Ming Dynasty in the future.

It is also a good thing to get two good generals.

And go to military school to study for three years.

All students and old friends are unfamiliar, and there will be no threat.

And it seems that Emperor Zhu is magnanimous.

Ran Tianyuan and Luo Siju hurriedly cupped their hands to thank each other.

Emperor Zhu just finished dealing with Liu Tianwang.

The news that Zhao Si sent someone to report Qianlong's movements also came.

"Qianlong is about to run away!"

Tao Biquan immediately made a judgment.

"It is estimated that Qianlong was frightened by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's defeat. Now that he is sick and moving northward, he probably wants to coerce hundreds of thousands of Han people in Beijing to leave the customs and go to the Western Regions to make his home."

Qianlong refused to be Ming Sizong with peace of mind, and wanted to become Liao Dezong Yelu Dashi.

But now Daming has King Pingxi.

Qianlong's going to the Western Regions may be the future of Yongli.
"Wrapping hundreds of thousands of Han people, Qianlong's idea is quite beautiful!"

Zhu Daohua now has King Pingxi, so Qianlong didn't want to go to the Western Regions easily.

It is especially impossible for Emperor Zhu to allow Qianlong to retain so much strength to go to the Western Regions.

Otherwise, Pingxi Fan could not defeat Qianlong, and if Qianlong was given three famous kings, wouldn't Ming be held back by the war in the Western Regions?

The Qing court can run away—in fact, Zhu Daohua can't stop it. The Qing court has already transferred many people to Guihua City.

But Qianlong can't run away!
Qianlong's 10,000+ army can't just run away!

In particular, he should not be allowed to drag hundreds of thousands of Han people along with him.

In this way, wouldn't Qianlong's strength far surpass that of Pingxi Fan?

And if they colluded with Tsarist Russia, it would be really troublesome if the internal and external forces colluded to deal with the emerging Ming Dynasty.

Think of this.

Zhu Daohua immediately issued an order: "Gather all the cavalry and all the dragoons together to pursue Qianlong together, and send an order to Peng Jun to break through Shanhaiguan as soon as possible and block Qianlong's return route to the capital!"

"Qianlong must not be allowed to escape!"
