Longevity begins with Jinyiwei

In the midst of the turmoil, time quickly passed the seventh year of Zhaowu and entered the eighth year of Zhaowu.

The momentum of banknotes is still fierce. The banknote printing factory at the foot of the imperial city is working overtime almost around the clock to print the new Zhaowu currency. Check the factory condition of banknotes in time.

The banknotes that have just been printed are directly sealed and released from the warehouse at this printing factory, and are continuously supplied to banks all over the world, filling and replacing Daheng's chaotic currency environment.

This year, the world of Daheng also experienced rare peace. There was no political turmoil or major policy changes. Within the framework of the basic order, the entire country seemed to be moving in a stable direction.

It was rare to walk steadily, and the long-suppressed thoughts of the emperor couldn't help rising again.

Being ordered by the heavens, he will live forever. The emperor asks himself, all his actions during the years he has been on the throne, he is worthy of the position of the emperor, and he is also worthy of the people of the world.

But he wants to see it with his own eyes, to see this great mountain and river, to see the Daheng Jiangshan where he has given everything for it!

In Qianqing Palace, the emperor stood on the map of Daheng with his hands behind his back, his eyes seemed to be fixed on the map for a long time.

In the past, faced with this map, it was a matter of endless national military and political affairs, but this time, the emperor rarely considered his own needs.

Where did the tour start and where did it pass along the way...

But after thinking about it, his thoughts unknowingly turned towards state affairs.

Where to inspect, what places to inspect, what role should the inspection play...

This is obviously a question worth pondering. As the Son of Heaven, everything he says and does is the political direction of the world.

This Daheng Tianxia, ​​under the administration of his reign for so many years, although it is still in the framework of the previous Ming Dynasty, the inner world has already changed beyond recognition.

Is this forcibly blended order really functioning normally? What's wrong with it...

These all require a pair of discerning eyes to discern.

It's just that, in the palace, it is to distinguish useful and true information from countless memorials, and to inspect it is to see it with one's own eyes...

……

Chapter 662 Sudden Changes in the Northwest

Just as the Son of Heaven was thinking about his plan to patrol the world, several urgent military reports came from the border gates in the north and the northwest border, but once again broke the Son of Heaven's idea of ​​patrolling the world.

It also immediately broke the hard-won peace of Daheng Chaotang in an instant.

The prairie beacons are rising!

Junggar Department of Northwest Mongolia, enter the grassland!

In the Qianqing Palace, the emperor held the urgent report at the border and looked at the map with an expression of uncertainty.

At this moment, what the emperor considers is naturally not whether to inspect or not, but these few military reports!

This seems to have completely deviated from the strategic expectation of the general staff, and also completely deviated from the strategic arrangement in the mind of the emperor!

The enemy of Daheng in the north lies in Mongolia, and the potential place lies in Mongolia in northwest Tibet.

The Mongolian steppe is divided into Monan, Mobei, and Moxi.

The situation in the grasslands in the south and north of the desert has always been chaotic, but, during the drastic changes in the past ten years, all the forces you sing, I will appear on the stage.

After the end of the Jin Dynasty, the Monan Grassland that belonged to the Houjin Dynasty also ended. Lin Danhan, who was supposed to end in history, took advantage of the situation in this chaotic situation, and almost unified Mobei and Monan. It is Daheng's confidant's serious trouble.

With the military strikes and economic blockade in recent years, Monan Mobei Mongolia has shown signs of splitting, and Lin Danhan's great career is already on the verge of collapse.

Northwest Tibet, which is the Moxi Grassland in the traditional sense, has always taken advantage of the special terrain and has little connection with the Monan Mobei Grassland.

As for Moxi Mongolia, which is entrenched in Moxi, in fact, its source is the Wara who captured Ming Yingzong during the Tumu Fort change.

It just declined later, and after moving westward, it split into four major divisions, namely: Zhungeer Division, Durbert Division, Heshuote Division, and Turhut Division.

These four major divisions are the Western Mongolia in the traditional sense.

These four tribes do not belong to each other, each develop their own, but still organized a loose alliance, whenever a big event happens, they will hold a "Churgan" meeting to discuss, and the leader of the alliance is the Heshuo Te tribe .

No matter how you look at it, Moxi, or the four major tribes in northwest Tibet, obviously have little relationship with Lin Danhan in Monan and Mobei, and there is no conflict of interest.

However, it is such two unrelated forces that are now fighting?

And Daheng is already very clear about the strategic plan of Monan Mobei and Moxi.

That is to boil the frogs in warm water to subtly kill the two foreign enemies, and when the time is right, they will fight to do their best.

Such a sudden change obviously completely disrupted Daheng's strategic arrangement.

The Son of Heaven carefully read this urgent military report, pondering over every word.

The intelligence showed clearly that it was the Zhungeer tribe, one of the four major tribes in the northwest, that marched into the grassland, and its vanguard was... Dorgon!

Looking at this familiar name, the emperor seemed to understand that all of this was probably inseparable from Dorgon, or rather, the perishing Houjin.

When Houjin perished, only Dorgon and Azig escaped, and these two later led Houjin's remnants to join Lin Danhan.

However, Lin Danhan was extremely guarded by the status of the queen of the two. When Lin Danhan kowtowed again, they turned against each other, which directly led to Lin Danhan's disastrous defeat.

After that, he fled to the northwest and took refuge in the Zhungeer tribe. The emperor naturally didn't know what happened, but it must be due to the factors of Dorgon and Azig.

After all, the Zhungeer of today is not the Zhungeer who forced the three emperors of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties to burn out.

Today, the boss of the four major divisions in Northwest China is not Zhungeer.

In history, Zhungeer began to expand, and it only started after the hero Galdan succeeded to the throne.

But now, it is unknown whether Galdan was born or not. Even if he was born, he might still be just a baby boy.

As for Lin Danhan, who is entrenched in Mobei, although his rule is unstable now, it is only because of the lack of food and supplies, which cannot prevent Daheng from instigating and dividing. , and is still firmly controlled by Lin Danhan.

The chaos in the Mongolian grassland today is mainly due to the fact that Monan is close to the border of Daheng. It is precisely because of the proximity to Daheng that Daheng's tricks are easy to work!

In this way, the Zhungeer troops marched into Mobei...

What is its intention?

The emperor frowned and stared at the map in front of him, but his eyes were on the land of Sichuan and Shaanxi. Judging from the geographical distribution of the four major regions in the northwest, even though Daheng's management of the northwest touched the interests of the four major regions in the northwest, it still had nothing to do with the four major regions in the northwest. Gale has nothing to do.

After all, the current direction of Daheng's operation, Sichuan and Shaanxi, are encircled and managed away, which is the territory of Pegatron's special department.

Now that He Shuote didn't respond, Zhungeer jumped out?

This is obviously not in line with common sense.

After thinking about it for a while, the Son of Heaven suppressed this thought for the time being. The thing has already happened. What needs to be considered is not the cause of the thing, but Daheng, how to obtain the greatest benefit from this matter...

Is the snipe and the clam fighting for the fisherman's benefit?Or sit on the sidelines?Or favor one side?

The emperor's eyes flickered, and he quickly determined a fundamental purpose, whether Lin Danhan or Zhungeer, no one can lose!

Moxi Mongolia cannot spread its tentacles to Monan Mobei, Monan Mobei Mongolia, nor can it spread its tentacles to Moxi.

After all, if in the north of Daheng, there appeared a grassland empire that ruled the south, the north, and the west...

Then in the north of Daheng, there will never be a peaceful day!

"Is there any other information?"

After thinking for a moment, the emperor turned around and looked at Li Ruolian, commander of Jinyiwei, and Sun Tao, director of the intelligence department of the general staff, who were behind him.

As soon as this question came out, the two subconsciously looked at each other, then shook their heads in response.

"It's mainly in the northwest. I want to know why the Zhungeer tribe marched into Mobei!"

"Also, this is just the action of the Zhungeer Department, or the four Northwest Departments have reached a tacit agreement!"

"The general staff should investigate these two points as quickly as possible!"

"My subordinate understands!"

Sun Tao responded quickly.

The emperor nodded, and after Sun Tao retreated, he looked at Li Ruolian: "Jinyiwei must closely monitor all places!"

Speaking of this, the emperor seemed to have thought of something, and said quietly: "What happened last time must never happen again!"

Hearing this, Li Ruolian couldn't help but tremble. The last time, what was the last time, wasn't it the last time when the northern Xinjiang war broke out, and the domestic turmoil almost ruined the situation in several provinces!

This time, the emperor is so far away, what's the point?

It must not happen again, that is, once it happens, the emperor will not tolerate it anymore, and his head will probably fall to the ground.

"Sir, I understand."

Li Ruolian solemnly responded.

"Okay, let's get back."

The emperor waved his hand, Li Ruolian resigned, and the emperor said again: "I pass on my will, ordering Sichuan, Shaanxi, and the major border gates in the north to be strictly guarded in case of accidents."

"It is said that the cabinet ministers, ministers of various ministries, and the governor's office of the five armies, the general staff and council ministers will enter the palace to discuss matters."

Chapter 663 Grassland

"According to today's intelligence, the main cause of the grassland rebellion lies in the Zhungeer tribe. It was Zhungeer who first provoked the dispute, and Dorgon led Zhungeer's vanguard cavalry into the Mobei grassland, and slaughtered Several Mongolian tribes..."

"It's worth mentioning that there are four major tribes in Northwest Tibet, and the Jungar tribe is just one of them, and it's not the strongest..."

"The four major tribes in the Northwest originated from Oala during Ming Yingzong's time, that is, the Oara that completed the Tumubao change. After declining and migrating, they evolved into Zhungeer, Durbert, Heshuot, and Tur in Tibet. Hu Te Department..."

"The four departments are a loose body that is almost an alliance. If there are major events on weekdays, it is usually decided by the four departments jointly, and its leader is the Heshuo Special Department."

In the hall, a military staff officer of the General Staff stood in front of the map, facing the Chinese and military ministers in the hall, explaining clearly.

"Have you figured out the reason? Is it just the Zhungeer Department's individual actions, or did the four major departments reach an agreement?"

"At present, there is no intelligence to indicate that the four ministries have reached an agreement, but this possibility is not ruled out."

The staff officer respectfully bowed his hands towards Wen Wu who was present: "I, Daheng, have been operating in the northwest border for a long time. Up to now, I have already touched the sphere of influence of the Heshuo Special Department..."

"The movement of the Zhungeer Department may be caused by my Daheng's movements in the northwest."

"Of course, this is just one of the possibilities."

"Whether it's Tibet in the northwest or Lin Danhan in the grassland, they are all under the threat of our Daheng soldiers. According to the analysis of the general staff, the possibility of the two combining should be greater."

Wu Xun said again: "Is it possible that the four major tribes in the Northwest want to unite with Lin Danhan, or that Lin Danhan wants to unite with the four major tribes in the Northwest, but for some reason, they fail?"

"Lin Danhan turned his back on Houjin back then, which led to the annihilation of the main force of Houjin. There is such a thing... It is not impossible that the four major divisions in the Northwest do not trust this factor."

This court meeting is obviously different from the past. In the past, most of the civil servants were at home, and most of the martial arts were just to show their presence.

But this time, it was obviously Wu Xun's home field, and the civil servants were reduced to the background board. When it came to fighting, Daheng's civil servants were naturally completely incomparable. After all, if they could, there would be no Daheng Wuxun.

Around the turmoil in the northern grassland, Zhu Wuxun spoke out one after another, the emperor sat aside and did not say a word, listening to Zhu Wuxun's opinions silently.

Daheng's strategy is still to go north first and then south, that is, to calm down the troubles in the north first, and then shift the focus to the southern sea and southwestern borders.

This can be clearly seen from the customized expansion of the navy.

After all, the construction of a navy, even the most basic warships, is not a one-time effort.

Several naval divisions, hundreds of small boats, and thousands of artillery pieces are the result of years of hard work.

Not to mention qualified sailors and soldiers, an infantry soldier, after a few months of training, will be a serviceable soldier, but sailors and soldiers are obviously not so easy.

Moreover, the increasingly prosperous sea trade transactions now occupy a considerable part of the production capacity of major shipyards, and even delay the formation of several major navies.

If the threat from the north is not resolved, the huge amount of money and material resources invested in northern Xinjiang every year will not be reduced at all. Coupled with the continuous natural disasters, the center of gravity of the court center will always be stuck in the north.

Under the limitation of national strength, there must be a choice between south and north, but at present, Daheng can only choose the north.

The court discussion is still going on, and now this court meeting, in the case of insufficient intelligence information, all the civil and military can only confine themselves to speculation.

Of course, these speculations are only secondary, the important thing is to determine the strategic decision of Daheng.

Dog bites dog, Daheng, how should he deal with himself?

This time, whether it is a military officer or a civil servant, it is rare to reach a consensus, that is to sit by and watch, and whoever is weak will help whomever!

Try to sow discord as much as possible, so that these two confidantes of Daheng will be bloodletted as much as possible in this war, so as to reduce the strategic pressure of Daheng going north in the future.

After this basic policy is determined, everything is obviously easy to talk about. No matter what the cause of the incident is, and what kind of grievances and hatreds are mixed in it, Daheng just needs to abide by this basic policy and be a qualified "shit stirrer".

After Daheng's strategic decision was made, Daheng, a huge war machine that had been dusty for several years, also started to rotate accordingly.

The huge amount of grain, grass and ordnance hoarded in the reserve granary in the capital was also continuously transported to the northern border and northwest border towns.

Not participating in war does not mean not preparing for war.

Before seeking victory, seek defeat first. This is the emperor's consistent military strategy, and the military mind and the general staff that the emperor has forged are also the same.

Everything is prepared with both hands. If the shit-stirring stick fails, or the situation is out of control, the shit-stirring stick will turn into a soldier who breaks the enemy and straighten the situation beyond control!
