Longevity begins with Jinyiwei

In this way, it is doomed that it is impossible to maintain the existence of a large-scale elite garrison for a long time. The self-sufficiency of the army can only be maintained in the form of garrisoning the border. erosion, and even assimilation.

But it is obvious that this is destined to be an extremely long process, and it also requires Daheng to maintain its strength in the land of Yunnan and Guizhou.

Can……

At this point in his thoughts, Yan Shun suddenly shook his head. He knew that this was impossible.

Just like that of Liaodong, the imperial court almost lost the total tax revenue for several years, and only then did Liao Province have today's Liao Province!

But the premise of the imperial court investing such money and material resources in the sea is that hundreds of thousands of troops slaughtered for more than half a year, followed by hundreds of thousands of garrisons patrolling day and night, plowing and sweeping holes again and again, and the entire Liaodong was almost planed three feet!

It was a successful battle!It completely eliminated the future troubles!Only with the input of manpower and material resources in the sea.

Only a strong Liaodong can better deter North Korea and maintain North Korea's stability.

This point is naturally clear.

But what about the land of Yunnan and Guizhou?

There are endless hidden dangers, and it will take a long time to make ends meet to affect the assimilation. There may be countless conflicts in this process, and a little carelessness may waste all previous efforts.

He didn't need to think about this kind of thing, the emperor would never do it.

With the usual style of the emperor, I am afraid that he would rather smash Yunnan and Guizhou to pieces, and spend a lot of manpower and material resources to rebuild it like Liaodong, than slowly assimilate.

"So... the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, what should he do?"

Yan Shun frowned tightly, muttering to himself, and after a long time, his brows eased a little.

It's not how he wants to do it, but the environment determines how he does it.

With the current situation in Jiangnan, it will be extremely difficult to stabilize within a few years.

If Jiangnan is not stable, he cannot support his big moves in Yunnan and Guizhou.

What he has to do is to temporarily stabilize the situation in Yunnan and Guizhou before Jiangnan is stabilized, win over and divide chieftains from various places, expand his advantages, and prepare for a big move.

Then, when it's time to make a big move, the emperor will definitely issue a decree, and then he can just follow the decree...

Thinking of this, Yan Shun couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief, his eyes turned around on the map, and finally wandered over the several feudal states bordering Yunnan for a moment, and then looked at the coastal borders of several feudal states.

Exploit the territory...

The Governor of Borderlands seems to have a lot to do in the future...

……

The winter was harsh, and Daheng's north and south were more or less turbulent, but this turmoil was completely worthless compared to the grassland under the harsh winter.

In fact, this vast grassland is in turmoil every winter, and even every moment.

However, no one would care about this cruel turmoil until there is a unified overlord.

After all, on the grassland, since ancient times, it has been a cruel environment where the fittest survive and the fittest survive.

But with the fall of Houjin, Daheng was too busy to take care of himself, and Lin Danhan took advantage of the situation to rise up. A nearly unified grassland was turbulent, which was naturally extremely dazzling.

For example, the turmoil in the chaotic world and the turmoil within the unified dynasty, the meanings of the two are obviously completely different.

And in today's Mongolian grassland, it is obviously the turmoil under the great unification!

Repeated defeats and repeated trips to the south to no avail seemed to have dealt a huge blow to the prestige of Lin Dan Khan, the Mongolian Khan.

Coupled with Daheng's strict defense of the border, not allowing any supplies to leave the customs.

If it was in the past, Lin Danhan naturally only needs to take care of his fundamental Chahar department.

But Mongolia has long been unified, and Lin Dan Khan is the Great Khan of Mongolia. In the past, there was a Daheng border exchange market, which allowed Lin Dan Khan to take advantage of the winter to win people's hearts and fight against dissatisfaction.

The most important thing is that hundreds of thousands of troops went south, but they did not get any results and suffered heavy losses.

Today, the Daheng mutual market is closed, the Daheng border is blocked, and everything in the grassland seems to have suddenly become a rootless source.

The entire grassland, with the cold of winter, and the lack of food, seemed to spread like a virus, and quickly became chaotic.

In this cruel environment, the prestige of the Mongolian Khan is naturally useless if they cannot provide the food and meat that allows the tribes to survive the cold winter!

At the beginning, Lin Danhan extinguished the turmoil of several tribes with the force of thunder, but as the crisis of survival spread, Lin Danhan was determined but powerless.

In the end, I can only sit back and watch the various tribes fight and plunder each other, hoping that this winter will pass quickly.

Of course, it is natural to send envoys to Daheng, bring precious things of gold and silver, and ask Daheng for assistance.

However, this mission was stopped before entering the Daheng border.

When the news reached the capital, only the emperor sneered.

In the past, the opening of the mutual market was to stabilize Mongolia, so that Daheng would have time to sort out its internal affairs and clear up Houjin.

But now, the Houjin is gone, Jiangnan is flat, and it is obvious that the next one to deal with is Mongolia. If he wants to open the mutual market and rescue Mongolia, then there is something wrong with his brain.

The result was obvious, the Son of Heaven naturally did not respond in the slightest, but instead ordered the Ministry of Military Justice to send several inspection teams to various border gates to strictly crack down on smuggling.

Afterwards, the Son of Heaven summoned the Ministry of War, the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and the generals of the General Staff to discuss and decide on a strategy against Mongolia.

Up to now, Daheng's strategy for Mongolia is already very clear. Of course, it is still the same old way of the past dynasties.

First, it is natural to block the border and cut off the most important source of supplies on the Mongolian grassland.

The second is to instigate division and win over, making the Mongolian grassland as chaotic as possible!

It is a simple and old-fashioned strategy, but it is extremely effective for Mongolia.

After all, for the vast majority of Mongolian tribes, there has never been much ethnic awareness, let alone the threat of tribe peril.

Without internal drags, a unified dynasty, even if it is just playing tricks on the grasslands, is enough to make the grasslands and deserts... overwhelmed...

Chapter 593 Western Regions and Grasslands 4000

stomping on...

The sky was full of wind and snow, and horseshoes were blowing. On the official road in the capital about tens of miles away from the south gate of the capital, a convoy was slowly moving forward.

The soldiers were dressed in armor, and the carriages were luxurious. Even people with no eyesight could definitely tell that the owner of this convoy was definitely of extraordinary status.

Whether merchants or ordinary people, they all retreated on both sides of the road, watching the convoy leave in awe.

"General, the Jingmen Station is ahead, should we take a rest?"

Some soldiers came on horseback and clasped their fists at Li Dingguo.

"No need, it's still early, try to get to Beijing before dark."

Li Dingguo waved his hand, then glanced at the most luxurious carriage in the convoy: "Go and tell Eunuch Wang that we are almost arriving in the capital."

"promise!"

The soldiers took the order and rode away.

Li Dingguo looked in the direction of the capital, although the sky and the earth were so vast that he couldn't see anything clearly, but at this moment, Li Dingguo's heart was filled with inexplicable emotions.

I have been away from Beijing for several years. At this moment, when I look back, everything seems to be vivid in my mind.

From refugees struggling to survive, to soldiers in the army, His Majesty's precepts and deeds, the South and the North battles, and now the Earl of Daheng, leading a navy...

Time flies so fast...

Li Dingguo let out a long breath, collected his mind, tightened the reins silently, and rode the horse forward, the thoughts in his heart seemed to have drifted to the capital.

He couldn't wait, Jiangnan sea area, Nanyang, Xiyi...

He has too many things, and he wants to report clearly to His Majesty that the vast ocean should also be left to the Daheng warship to ride the wind and waves...

Compared with Li Dingguo's turmoil, Wang Wu, who was in the carriage and headed south, had a different look after he got the change of the imperial palace in the south of the Yangtze River.

Once he went out of the palace to go south, he exhausted countless scheming, offended Jin Yiwei, offended Duke Jing, and the power he held in his hands actually made a wedding dress for others!

To the Son of Heaven, he naturally did not dare to resent, but to the Er Dezi who had flattered him so much, he seemed to wish to have his bones and drink his blood!

"Father, don't even think about it. When you return to the palace, it will be easy to deal with Er Dezi..."

A little eunuch persuaded softly.

"To shut up!"

Hearing this, Wang Wu couldn't help but his heart trembled, and he slapped him fiercely: "Do you want me to die?"

"Dare to say anything, what do you think you are!"

"I don't know the so-called stupid thing!"

The little eunuch covered his cheeks, as if he was at a loss in front of his furious father.

"Get out, get out!"

Wang Wuyin shouted angrily.

"My lord, what happened?"

At this moment, a cavalry outside the car approached on horseback and asked.

"nothing!"

Wang Wu's face changed instantly, returning to his usual appearance, and he spoke flatly.

The soldiers outside the car responded, and then rode away. The movement inside the car soon reached Li Dingguo's ears.

Li Dingguo glanced at the little eunuch who didn't know the so-called so-called, and couldn't help frowning, and after a while, he waved his hand, indicating that the general would step down.

At this moment, Li Dingguo suddenly had a feeling that this trip to Beijing might not be peaceful!

……

At this moment, in the imperial palace, the new year is approaching. As in previous years, no matter how harsh the winter is, it can’t hide the joy of the new year. Among the snow-capped palaces and eunuchs, there are busy palace ladies and eunuchs, and lanterns and festoons can be seen everywhere.

If it was in previous years, the emperor might have to take another visit to the white dragon fish to take a good look at how the people are.

But this year, the emperor obviously ran out of time.

Not long after Jiangnan was pacified, the southwestern frontier was still in turmoil, disasters in the north were repeated, and the project to relieve millions of victims still needs to be arranged...there is also the division and disintegration of Mongolia.

Of course, the most important thing for Daheng today is not the external war, but sorting out the internal environment.

From the early years of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty to now about to enter the fifth year of Zhaowu, in the past ten years, the turmoil in the world, the conquest of soldiers, and the continuous natural disasters have almost never stopped.

Now that the world is united, it is obvious that it can no longer continue like this. The most important thing is to recuperate and recuperate, to rest with the people.

In other words, the focus of Daheng's governance should shift from conquering all directions and suppressing disobedience to internal development.

"Education, taxation, government, laws, bank finance?"

Behind the desk, the Son of Heaven was writing, writing and writing, and countless thoughts flickered in his mind, planning the development of Daheng in the next few years.

Since he was determined to push the seedlings to encourage them, and abruptly changed Daheng from a traditional central empire to a new empire in the future, the development of this country has completely gone into the unknown.

Throughout history, there is no example to follow, no reference.

He can only follow the limited knowledge of future generations in his mind, and plan bit by bit. As for the Minister of Chinese and Military Affairs... Obviously, he can only move forward according to his plan.

Of course, he can't guarantee that what he thinks and even plans are correct, he can only try and make mistakes bit by bit.

Just like the trial education system in Shuntian Mansion, it has been adjusted no less than ten times from the beginning to the present. The tax system that is about to be launched is also destined to be tried out in Shuntian Mansion. A little bit of trial and error adjustments will be made until the end. It can only be implemented if it can be changed.

After a long time, the emperor came back from his endless thoughts. Looking at the densely packed plan on the paper, the emperor couldn't help rubbing his forehead. There are too many things to do.

Moreover, many things need to be enforced by him with authority, which means that he must keep an eye on them all the time in order to avoid the backlash caused by authoritarian coercion.

And this is only in the country, Daheng, how can it be limited to the traditional Han area.

The emperor got up, and the picture of Daheng Qiankun in the hall had already added many new regions.

Centered on the traditional Chinese region, Mongolia in the north, the Western Regions in the northwest, Myanmar and Siam in the southwest, the Wa country adjacent to Korea, and the vast and boundless sea area in the south of the Yangtze River, Taiwan, Ryukyu, Malacca, Temasek, Luzon, Java, India... …

If one wants to form an unshakable hegemony over the ocean, the vast sea area, the islands of many countries that form a natural loop around the Daheng sea area, should be taken down, and let this vast sea area become an inland sea!

To form hegemony on land, of course, even if land hegemony is not achieved, Mongolia needs to be pacified just for the stability of northern Xinjiang.

And this kind of pacification is obviously not just about defeating Lin Danhan. After all, it is obviously not difficult for a unified Central Plains dynasty to defeat Lin Danhan.

In the past dynasties, except for a few weak dynasties, most of the others pressed Mongolia to the ground and rubbed it when they were strong.

Of course, most of these battles against Mongolia are just reincarnations one after another.

There is only one reason, that is, the special terrain of Mongolia, which made the Central Plains Dynasty, which is mainly composed of farming people, unable to exercise effective rule over Mongolia.

This point has obviously been deeply understood by successive dynasties. Therefore, since the Han Dynasty, the strategy of the Central Dynasty towards Mongolia was to cut off the Mongolian retreat, and to completely defeat or even eliminate the ethnic groups on the Mongolian grasslands in one or several battles!
