Buried alive in the Qing Dynasty

"Your majesty is holy," Yue Le said again, "I learned from Masiike and Cervantes that although the Western Army's formation is simple, there are only square formation, horizontal formation, vertical formation, scattered formation, etc. , but they played very well...the interval between soldiers, the distance between columns, the pace of infantry marching, the pace of cavalry charging, and the steps and speed of musket loading, There are accurate calculations. Although we can figure out these things ourselves, it takes time and effort, so it is better to use their ready-made things directly."

Kangxi nodded and said: "We can learn from it, but we can't copy it... After all, Westerners haven't discovered the secret of sugar medicine."

"Your majesty is wise," Yue Le said, "I think Westerners' flintlock guns are usable in both horizontal and vertical formations... In addition, I also discovered that Westerners have a type of rifle that has a long range and high accuracy, and can be used to equip A sharpshooter, specially designed to deal with hypocritical grenade hammer soldiers."

"I've heard of it too!" Kangxi nodded and said, "This kind of musket has a wire slot on the inside of the barrel. It is said that with this wire slot, the range of the projectile can be doubled, and it can be shot more accurately. If the Dutch It is a beautiful thing that Spain is willing to send craftsmen to teach us how to make rifles."

"The slave will congratulate the emperor!" Yue Le laughed, "Governor Ma Suike told the slave that among the Western craftsmen who came to Tianjin with him, there are some who can make rifles."

"This is great!" Kangxi finally showed a satisfied smile on his pockmarked face, "It seems that these Heyi and Xiyi really want to join hands with me, Daqing."

"The emperor is holy." Yue Le sent another compliment to Kangxi, "The servant also heard from Governor Ma Suike that they will send people into Guangxi through Vietnam to contact Wu Zhou... If Wu Zhou also has a rifle, how about After learning how to build Westerners' cannons and learning Westerners' formations, we might be able to team up with Wu Yingxiong to attack Zhu Hechi together."

Kangxi nodded and said with a smile: "When you say that, I still think of something... Uncle Emperor, I would like to ask you to work hard and lead a new army to Gansu."

"Take a trip to Gansu? The emperor means..."

Kangxi said with a smile: "I want you to send Mo Luo, governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, to take office in Lanzhou, and by the way, bring my brother Sangji Gyatso from Lanzhou to Beijing... By the way, bring one or two doctors who can vaccinate, Inoculate Sangji Gyatso and his men with pox."

Hearing what Kangxi said, Yue Le showed surprise on his face, "Your Majesty, the Great Lama..."

Kangxi nodded, "I have just received Suo'etu's secret report. The great lama has agreed to accept me as his lay disciple, and also sent his most trusted disciple, Sangji Gyatso, the chief lama, to come to Beijing to teach me the Dharma on his behalf. , and bestowed on Enhe Amugulang Khan the title of Khan and the status of the Pope."

"Slave congratulates the emperor!"

Yue Le hurriedly congratulated Kangxi.

This fifth great lama is not an ordinary great lama. The Yellow Sect under his leadership is in its heyday, and is even called the Xueyu Holy See by later generations.Because at this time, the great lama has the ability to issue decrees to the various ministries of Oirat Mongolia through the methods of preaching, canonizing the Dharma king, and bestowing the Khan number!

Especially after Galdan, the favorite student of the Fifth Grand Lama, became the powerful Junggar tribe Taiji, the authority of the Fifth Grand Lama has reached its peak, almost becoming the suzerain of the Heshuote Khanate and the soon-to-be-established Junggar Khanate!

For Khalkha Mongolia and Monan Mongolia, the Fifth Great Lama also had a strong influence.

Now the Fifth Grand Lama accepts Kangxi as his disciple, and bestows the title of Mongolian Khan and the title of Emperor of the Dharma, which is tantamount to supporting Kangxi to become the Great Khan of Mongolia.

Moreover, the Khan of Galdan and the Heshuot Khanate and a group of Taiji will also stand on Kangxi's side and jointly oppose Burni, the direct heir of the Golden Family.

Kangxi smiled and said: "Uncle Emperor, you should still see some Taiji from the Heshuote Khanate who escorted Sangji Gyatso in Gansu this time. Tell them... I will prepare for another year!" Said At this point, Kangxi's tone suddenly sank, and his face became ferocious, "One year later, I will personally lead the army, and together with my Anda Galdan, we will send troops to the Hetao Grassland and the Khalkha Grassland. Get rid of this fake Khan in Burni!

I swear to my ancestors that I will smash Burni's body into thousands of pieces and shatter his bones into ashes! "

……

"Ah... sneeze!"

At the foot of Yinshan Mountain, in a large golden-roofed tent surrounded by countless white yurts on the prairie on the north bank of the Yellow River, Burni, the Great Yuan Tianyou Emperor who was not yet the Great Khan of Mongolia, suddenly sneezed.

In the big tent, the Taiji from Monan and Mobei Mongolian ministries heard his sneeze, and cast their concerned eyes—this eagle on the grassland, the wolf on the desert, the hope of Great Mongolia will not be infected Bar?

Burni was sitting on a modular throne at this time—not a chair, but a set of furniture including a platform, a screen, a chair, and a wooden shelf on which a plaque was hung.

The purpose of building this set of combined furniture is, of course, to hang this upright plaque—a plaque made according to the handwriting of Emperor Shunzhi.

In addition, outside the big tent in Burni, there is another wooden shelf on which is placed a plaque made of stone, with "Daqingmen" engraved on one side and "Damingmen" engraved on the other.

These two plaques are the best proof that Burni "conquered" the city of Beijing.

Quite a few of the Mongolian Tai Jizhong who were invited by Burni to hold the Kuritai Conference have been to Beijing, have seen these two plaques, and now saw them inside and outside the golden-roofed tent in Burni, and they were all moved to tears. Eyes full.

The Great Yuan Dynasty is really back!

There are even rumors that Burni is actually the reincarnation of Genghis Khan!

Burni touched his nose, and then laughed: "It's been more than 500 years... Our Mongolian army has finally gathered at the door of Xixia's house again!"

Hearing what he said, a group of Mongol Taiji all showed emotional expressions—Genghis Khan died of illness during his sixth attack on Xixia.

Now Burni suddenly mentioned Xixia... Could it be that he remembered the memory of his previous life?

He is really the reincarnation of Genghis Khan!

Burni glanced at the golden tent, and then said: "I just got the news that the Great Lama of Xueyu sent his disciple Sangji Gyatso to Beijing to present the Kangxi Khan... It seems that the Oirats will not come to participate This Kuritai meeting is over! But it doesn’t matter, with your support and God’s blessing, I, Burni, can become the Great Khan of all Mongolia, and from today, I will be Genghis God Bless Khan!”

Chapter 510 The Mongolian Expedition, the Great Ming Northern Expedition, Are You Afraid of the Qing Dynasty? (

"Emperor's imperial decree in Changsheng Tianlili, Dafuyin Huzhuli, Taiji Migendi, Tabu Nang Migendi, Dalu Huachi and Ren Migendi in the city, and envoys who came and went: Now Dayuan is coming again. With the emperor, Great Mongolia has another Great Khan. They are all the same. They are the direct descendants of Emperor Genghis. The Taiji from Western Mongolia and Modong Mongolia will come to the foot of Yinshan Mountain to serve the Great Emperor and the Great Khan quickly. The Great Emperor and the Great Khan will follow the rules of Genghis Khan and confer you as Qianhu Taiji and Wanhu Huntaiji. Then we will rectify the troops with you, and we will go to Beijing and enter the Central Plains together, and take Kang Mazi's Huahua Jiangshan and divide it... This is it!"

Following an imperial decree that was quite reminiscent of the Yuan Dynasty, it was conveyed by the illiterate warriors of Chahar Tielian Konot to various parts of the Mongolian camp at the foot of the Yin Mountain, and all the Mongolians in the camp were all boiling...

Some of the Mongols gathered here are from the Chahar tribe.Some are warriors from the Wulanchabu League, Yikezhao League, and Alashan tribe. Their tribes have been completely under the control of Burni, and they will soon be reorganized into Tumed Wanhu, Ordos Wanhu, and Alashan Sanqian. household.There are also some Mongols from the Tuxietu, Zhasaktu and Chechen tribes in Khalkha. Their tribes still maintain considerable independence.

Some of them have already been to Beijing with Burnie, but want to go again!

And those who have not been there, they would like to go to Beijing with Genghis God Bless Khan to open their eyes.

As for how lucky Burni was when he entered Beijing last time, no one has considered... Even whether Burni really wants to return to Beijing, or just wants to use the return to Beijing as a call to kill Chahar and Tumot. The Mongols of China, Ordos, Alxa, Tuxietu, Zhasaktu, and Chechnya were all integrated, and then they went to compete with Kangxi for the right to rule the host Mongolia and the Mongolian tribes in the eastern part of Monan. No one thought about it.

You guys are thinking of good things!

However, in the golden-roofed tent in the Mongolian camp, Genghis Destiny Khan, who had already changed into the white leather robe of Genghis Khan's style and wore the hood of Genghis Khan's style, still maintained the necessary calmness.

He didn't dare to go to Beijing, at least he wouldn't really march to Beijing until Ming and Qing were both defeated.

Before that, he would only travel between the Hetao Grassland and the Mobei Grassland under the banner of "March into Beijing", frightening Kangxi while watching the Ming and Qing Dynasties... Even if he can't enter Beijing again, as long as he can be called At the time of the fall of the Qing Dynasty, Monan was annexed, and Mongolia was the host, and then the Oirat Mongolia was merged to the west, so as to unify all the tribes of Mongolia. He Burni is also worthy of being the second Genghis Khan!

Just when he was so complacent, his brother Luo Buzang suddenly stepped in quickly from outside the big tent, came to his side, and said to him in a low voice: "Great Khan, Geng Jingzhong and Monk Zhixin have sent an envoy to report that they have already arrived." I got the musket and gunpowder from Wu Yingqi..."

"Okay!" Burney, who was full of complacency, called out, then stood up abruptly from his seat, pulled out a scimitar of the same style as Genghis Khan with a clang, and pointed to the east, "Great Mongolia My warriors, the time has come to march east!"

……

When the news that Genghis Tianyou Khan of Great Mongolia and Emperor Tianyou of Yuan Dynasty personally led 20 Mongolian warriors from Chahar, Tumed, Ordos, Alashan and other tribes to the east reached Beijing, the city was already in panic. !

Because with the news that the Qing Dynasty and Wu Zhou, Japan, North Korea, Vietnam, Burma, Siam, the Netherlands, Spain and other countries concluded the sixteen-country anti-Ming Covenant, the Ming Dynasty stationed 20 troops in the south of Huaihai, and was about to make a northern expedition to the Central Plains. The rumors of the rumor spread in Beijing, Tianjin, Baoding, Taiyuan, Kaifeng, Xuzhou, Jinan and other places.

Now add the news of Mongolia's Eastern Expedition, is this okay?A Ming Dynasty is enough for Daqing to drink a pot, and now there is a Great Mongolia... Isn't this Daqing country going to be attacked by enemies from the north and the south?

The residents of Beijing City, who had already suffered once last year, were really a little panicked now.

"Have you heard? That Burni is the Mongolian prince who drove the empress dowager and the queen to the Eight Great Alleys last year. Now he is the Great Khan of Mongolia. It is said that he is the reincarnation of Genghis Khan. Now he has assembled 20 Mongolian troops. Hit Beijing again!"

"It doesn't matter if there are 20 Mongols, and there are 20 puppet musketeers coming to attack Beijing! The [-]-nation alliance has pissed off the surname Zhu. I heard that there are puppet soldiers everywhere on the south bank of the Huaihe River. The army's barracks... the Northern Expedition will begin soon!"

"What evil did the Qing Dynasty do? It's enough to have an anti-Qing and Fuming, so why do you have an anti-Qing and Fuyuan?"

"It's just... if it goes on like this, I'm afraid it will be over!"

"Keep your voice down, the Holy Lord is coming, the heavenly soldiers are invincible, how could it be over..."

Those who said "it's over" in the teahouses in the outer city of Beijing are of course ordinary people... Some of them are "old Beijing" living in the outer city, and they have personally experienced the situation that caused the empress dowager and empress of the Qing Dynasty to live in the eight alleys. Field turmoil.Some are family members of the New Eight Banners who just moved to Beijing, and some are salt and human traffickers captured by Shi Lang and the others from Yangzhou.

In short, these people don't have enough confidence in the Qing Dynasty!

The common people in Beijing are like this. In the "Datong State" not far from Beijing, there are also a group of guys who are also restless.

"Datong Prefecture" is now the holy land of northern Confucianism!Not only is there the main altar of Confucianism, but also many Confucian children who moved from Shandong, and it is also a place where those Baoshui village sages who came to Beijing to leave the door gather.

Village sages, of course, are all Confucian scholars, and most of them have the fame of juren and scholar.They can't be regarded as the same group as the Eight Banners in Beijing, so the sages or the children of the sages who came to Beijing to do business will classify themselves as the children of Confucianism.

Huang Zhisheng, one of the five masters of Confucianism, also asked Kangxi to agree to open the Shandong Guild Hall, Shanxi Guild Hall, Zhili Guild Hall, Henan Guild Hall, and Shaanxi-Gansu Guild Hall in Tongzhou City to receive the sages and sages who came to Beijing. Disciple...Of course, this is just for everyone's convenience, and everything is under Emperor Kangxi's control!

In addition, even if these sages and their children have joined Confucianism, they are also the enemies of Daming and Confucianism!

And these rivals of Ming Dynasty and Confucianism are panicking now!

How could they not panic?Their boss, Confucian saint Gong Yuqi, is now like an ant on a hot pot.

However, Zhou Peigong and Li Guangdi, who had just returned from Dengzhou, and Huang Zhisheng, who had been by Kong Yuqi's side all the time, were relatively calm, and they were still in the study of the Confucian Zongzong altar to comfort Kong Yuqi!

"Don't be afraid, Shenggong... If it doesn't work, you can go to Dengzhou to avoid it."

"That's right, my subordinate just came over from Dengzhou... This Dengzhou is really the same as the rumors say, you can live in peace no matter where you come from."

"What do you mean not asking where you came from?" Huang Zhisheng still asked knowingly.

"The so-called don't ask where you come from, that is, people don't ask where they come from or where their money comes from." Zhou Peigong said with a smile, "When a person comes to Dengzhou, he just rents a house, and then he can apply for a registered residence with a false name. "

Li Guang said: "It is the same to open an account at the Penglai Bank in Dengzhou. You don't need to look at any account books... Just give a pseudonym, cat or dog, and you can open an account. Then the bank will give you a bronze medal with numbers engraved on it." And a paper account card. As long as you have the bronze card, you can take out the silver even if you don’t have the card. Even if you don’t have the bronze card, just remember the number on it and the password left in the Penglai silver bank. Take out the deposit!"

Huang Zhisheng pretended to be surprised, "Doesn't that mean that as long as you deposit your silver in Penglai Bank, you can sit back and relax?

Shenggong, I would like to ask for a leave of absence to visit my relatives in Shandong..."

Chapter 511 Everyone is Talented!

Huang Zhisheng, a Cantonese, actually went to Shandong to visit relatives?

Although Sheng Gong Kong Yuqi was young and inexperienced, he also knew that there must be something weird in it!

He snorted, looked back at Zhou Peigong and Li Guangdi, and asked in a low voice, "You can go to Dengzhou in person, but I can't leave... What should I do?"

Kong Yuqi also has money!

He is the No.60 sixth-generation Yansheng Gong, and all the money exploited by Confucianism in Qufu for dozens of generations fell into his hands.

Now the Confucian family’s 30 million mu of land has been allocated to Confucianism by Kangxi, but the Confucian family’s silver is still buried underground in the Confucian mansion in Qufu... Originally, the money was foolproof. No ruler would check it.

Even Li Zicheng wouldn't do that!

But now the world has changed, and the Confucian Mansion in Qufu was forced to get involved in the Confucian Civil War and the Ming and Qing Dynasties because Kong Yuqi was conferred the title of Confucian Sacred Duke...

Once involved in a power struggle, it will be dangerous!

Now Kong Yuqi has been expelled from Confucianism and deprived of his surname by the Confucian sect in Nanjing.Once the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty invaded Shandong, the Confucian Mansion in Qufu would definitely be confiscated, and the savings of dozens of generations of the Confucian family would all belong to others.

Why is Kong Yuqi willing?

Moreover, he was not willing to donate the silver to Emperor Kangxi... Qianming was so kind to the Kong family back then, and when Emperor Chongzhen was dying of poverty, the Kong family did not donate a tael of silver. Shallow king of barbarians?Why?

So the only way Kong Yuqi could think of was to transfer the money to Dengzhou and deposit it in that Penglai bank.

But the problem is that Kong Yuqi cannot do without Tongzhou, and it is impossible to go to Dengzhou to save money in person!

"Shenggong, there is a way to be humble." Huang Zhisheng had been waiting for Kong Yuqi to raise this question.

"What method?" Kong Yuqi asked.

"You can open a bank!" Huang Zhisheng said, "Let your most trusted family members and servants manage it... This bank can open a branch in Dengzhou, Qufu, and Tianjin, with the head office in Tongzhou, specializing in foreign exchange. Business. In this way, your money can be slowly transferred to Penglai Bank in Dengzhou through your own bank account!"

Kong Yuqi thought about it for a while, and felt that this method was quite good, but there were some problems, "But how do people in my family know how to open a bank?"

Huang Zhisheng smiled and said: "Shenggong, your family members don't know how to do business, those Shanxi old pit clubs that open business in the outer city of Beijing! You pay the capital, the golden signboard of Shenggong Kong's family, and the influence of Confucianism, let them If talents are produced, won’t this bank be opened?”

"Tall! Really tall!" Kong Yuqi finally showed a smile, and then looked at Zhou Peigong and Li Guangdi, "What do you think?"

Zhou Peigong smiled and said: "This is indeed a good way... With such a bank, Shenggong is not the only one who is convenient!"

Li Guang nodded and said, "That's right, Shenggong, it's convenient for your own family, and it's also convenient for others."

"Okay!" Kong Yuqi said, "Then let's do it... Zhisheng, you are familiar with those old pits in Shanxi, and I will leave it to you to contact Shanxi merchants."

"Subordinates obey."

"Jinqing," Kong Yuqi said to Li Guang again, "I trouble you to go to Dengzhou again to finish the business of opening a branch of the bank...by the way, set up another branch of Confucianism in Dengzhou."

"This subordinate will do it!"

"Pei Gong," Kong Yuqi said to Zhou Pei Gong again, "the imperial court also needs someone to take care of it... Who do you think is the right way to go? How much should it cost?"

Zhou Peigong smiled and said: "Of course I followed the way of Tutang, the great scholar of the dynasty! 1 taels of silver is enough for this matter!"

"Okay, then there is Mr. Lao Pei!"

……

When the news that the Ming Dynasty was about to attack the Central Plains in the north and joined forces with the Mongol Kingdom to destroy the Qing Dynasty spread everywhere in the northern land, causing panic among the people.As the helm of the Ming Dynasty, Jian Guoming King Zhu Heqi, is still step by step, leading this ancient Celestial Empire to the future at his own pace.

After all, for him, anti-Qing and Fuming is no longer the primary goal.In other words, this goal has actually been basically achieved.He is now the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, but because of the promise of "the one who enters Beijing first will rule the world", he has not ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor... It can be said that the Qing Dynasty has also reversed, and the Ming Dynasty has also recovered.

But the future of the Celestial Empire is still shrouded in mist!

Leading this ancient country, which has gradually begun to lag behind the times, on the right path, so as to save it from sinking 200 years later and suffering and poverty for more than [-] years, is far more than starting a new historical cycle. Much more difficult!

And what Zhu and Qi are going to challenge now is this much more difficult goal!

However, Zhu Hechi is not a historian or sociologist after all, and he is not very clear about the reasons for the decline of Chinese civilization in modern times... Maybe there is no standard answer to this question at all.

So he can only try to solve problems that he can understand.

In his view, the main reason for the great cycle of ancient Chinese history is land mergers!

The antidote to mergers is, of course, the equal-field system!

Of course, the best time to implement the land equalization system is at the beginning of the country when the authority was the strongest, the population was the smallest, and the interest groups just started to appear!
