Chapter 254
Tian Shanyue is indeed envious.

The emperor issued a decree in the northern capital thousands of miles away to recruit a county magistrate to Beijing.

This must be a great thing.

Moreover, Chen Zhongliang was indeed one of the more outstanding officials who had been "seconded" by Lan Fang in recent years.

Chen Zhongliang also showed joy on his face.

He is a smart person, and he can quickly guess the reason why the emperor summoned him - his greatest achievement was completed in Jifeng County. Maybe the emperor will also promote the Jifeng County model in the whole Nanyang?
As he spoke, he bowed his hands to Tian Shanyue: "Mr. Tian, ​​I have been taking care of you during this period, and the emperor has ordered that Chen pack up and go north. If there is a chance in the future, I will have a drink with you again!"

Tian Shanyue also cupped his hands, and said: "Chen Sang, I will settle down in Lanfang in the future, if you come to Lanfang, don't forget to visit your old friends."

However, Chen Zhongliang shook his head and said: "Mr. Tian, ​​don't underestimate yourself. With your talents, how can you waste them in Nanyang? Tomorrow, when you want to fight in all directions, it's time to use your generals. At that time, your talents will definitely be useful!"

The fake Japanese samurai Tian Shanyue now has the military registration of the Ming army, and his identity is not Japanese, but Han Chinese.

So as long as he makes contributions, he can complete the promotion within the Ming army system.

There are many Japanese like Tian Shanyue.

Now is not the time for the rise of nationalism in later generations, and Japan is still too poor, who can be a Han Chinese, who will be a Japanese.

Therefore, many Japanese who have made great contributions have passed the "Sinicization Examination" and received the military registration of the Ming Army. When they are discharged from the army in the future, they can be assigned household registration according to their own wishes.

Benefits are great.

Moreover, Chen Zhongliang had cooperated with Tian Shanyue for more than a year, so he knew very well how powerful this fake warrior was.

Such characters will not be buried.

"Chen Sang, have a good trip!"

Tian Shanyue said with a solemn expression.

In this era where transportation is basically based on walking, this farewell may mean that we will never see each other again in this life.

Chen Zhongliang cupped his hands and bowed deeply.

"Goodbye by fate!"

Just when Chen Zhongliang had to leave Lanfang non-stop because of Emperor Zhu's order, he dragged his family and his family and went north by boat.

Emperor Zhu was furious in the Imperial Study Room in the Forbidden City.

"Lebao this thief! Damn it!"

Emperor Zhu looked very unhappy, and walked back and forth in the study for a few steps.

What made him so unhappy was naturally the news from the northwest.

Le Bao, the former governor of the Western Regions in the Qing Dynasty, rejected the surrender order of the docile Wang Jinsanxin, and led a surprise attack on several Mongolian nomadic tribes in Uliasutai, plundering cattle, sheep, horses and women.

However, for the time being, Emperor Zhu has no good way to deal with Le Bao, who is far away from the emperor.

He didn't even dare to send Zhengxiying to deal with Le Bao.

After all, the content of the Eight Banners in Zhengxixing camp is too high, what if these former Eight Banners directly bring weapons to vote for Le Baoye?

And judging from the number and models of flintlocks and various field guns in the Lebao Army
It is very likely that Lebao has the support of the British.

In the Western Regions, only the British Governor-General of India may provide large-scale assistance to Lebao with various weapons.

Le Bao cleared up the remnants of his crimes and was about to merge with Britain, the overlord of Europa.

This made Emperor Zhu feel somewhat uneasy.

In addition, in front of Emperor Zhu was a piece of information about the increase of troops from Tsarist Russia to Irkutsk.

Tsarist Russia and Britain were originally allies, and now they still have direct contact with Lebao, India, the Western Regions, and Siberia.

Threats exist in three directions.

And Emperor Zhu didn't want to be drawn too much energy by the three directions.

Because none of these places can accommodate too many people.

The Western Regions Province is not bad, but it is nothing compared to the Northeast.

Emperor Zhu hopes to concentrate on migrating the poor from the Central Plains to the Northeast as much as possible, and after accumulating enough immigration experience, he can use this experience in North America.

As for Siberia, Central Asia, and India.

These places only need to maintain influence, and they may not even pursue actual control, but entrust vassals to guard them.

But at this time, troubles appeared in all three directions.

In particular, if Le Bao had the support of Britain and Tsarist Russia, he might really be in the northwest and ruin Emperor Zhu's affairs.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry about this thief, Lebao. You just need to urge King Pingxi to go west and drive him away. The key is not to let this thief disturb the morale of the soldiers who marched westward!"

Tao Biquan on the side said.

Zhu Daohua heard the words and looked at the map.

"The matter of Tsarist Russia can't be let go so lightly. Tsarist Russia must be taught a lesson and let them understand that wars don't start when they want to start, and end when they want to end!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Daohua suddenly said,

"Order Chen Dewang to lead the troops northward and attack Irkutsk!"

Emperor Zhu's fist hit Irkutsk not far from Lake Baikal.

Irkutsk is the core of Tsarist Russia's rule in Eastern Siberia.

There is a big river flowing here, and Tsarist Russia can transport supplies and troops from Moscow to this place through the river.

Since the sixteenth century, it has been the support point for the expansion of Tsarist Russia to the east.

Destroy Irkutsk.

It can destroy Tsarist Russia's operations in the Far East for more than a hundred years!
"Can the Zhengxiying Battalion beat the Tsarist Russian shooting army?"

Tao Biquan frowned slightly.

"It's impossible to beat. The Westward Journey Camp has been transformed into a staff system, and the top and bottom are under the control of the staff. They hold the base camp of Guihua City, and they are not afraid of the rebellion of the original Eight Banners soldiers. What's more, there are promotion channels for meritorious service and rewards. Now, they have no reason not to fight hard!"

Zhu Daohua waved his hand and said.

not to mention.

on weaponry.

The Westward Journey Camp also has an absolute advantage.

And now that the capital of the Zhengxiying Camp is dispatched to the Beihai seaside, it can also avoid Le Bao's "temptation".

Of course.

The key is to expel Le Bao from the Western Regions!
"Decree to Qi Lin, let him go west quickly, don't delay for any reason! Autumn harvest? The imperial court will give him supplementary food! How much wheat can be produced in Guanzhong! Don't want it, let's go west immediately, if you don't go... Luo Dingshan's two dragoon brigades are about to make a move!"

Zhu Daohua looked at Guanzhong again.

This is the third time he ordered Qi Lin to go west.

But King Pingxi repeatedly delayed for various reasons.

What ammunition is insufficient, what military salary is not enough, and what has to wait for the autumn harvest.

The good-tempered Emperor Zhu is also angry now.

What he said this time is already very serious.

If you don't go west immediately, then send a large army to drive them away!

Guanzhong Plain in June.

The temperature is very hot.

On the terraced fields of the yellow land with thousands of ravines, the lush wheat has pulled out the ears of wheat.

If God rewards the face.

This year is going to be a bumper year.

Chang'an City.

Pingxi Palace.

"My lord! My lord!"

Zhang Hanchao came in a hurry holding the military order from the Generalissimo's Mansion that he had just received.

Seeing the drowsy Pingxi Wang Qilin sitting on the seat, served by several Shaanxi beauties, he was very angry.

"Emperor Zhu came to order again." Zhang Hanchao placed the military order in front of Qi Lin.

"Come on, come on, the wheat has just sprouted ears, so we can't let these millions of acres of wheat go."

Qi Lin said indifferently.

I got an errand for King Pingxi before, but now I feel comfortable in Guanzhong, and I don't really want to go to the Western Regions to eat sand.

"No, Emperor Zhu seems to be really angry this time. He told us to send troops to the west immediately, because Le Bao, the former governor of the Western Regions of the Qing Dynasty, sent troops to harass Uliasutai repeatedly." Zhang Hanchao said with a frown. "Now Emperor Zhu wants to drive away the wolf, so let's deal with Le Bao."

"If we don't leave now, he will let Luo Dingshan lead his troops to drive us away"

When he said this, Zhang Hanchao had a look of helplessness on his face.

"What? Luo Dingshan is here?"

Hearing this, Qi Lin suddenly stood up.

If the Ming court is not in a hurry.

He has no sense of urgency yet.

But if that murderous man from Luoding Mountain came with soldiers, then Qi Lin wouldn't dare to squat in Guanzhong.

"Yes, the dragoons of the two brigades have already passed Tongguan."

Hearing this, Qi Lin walked back and forth a few steps, when his wife Wang Cong'er walked in.

"My lord, it seems we have to go, otherwise Emperor Zhu is really angry, we can't bear it."

Hearing this, Qi Lin looked at Zhang Hanchao.

Zhang Hanchao also nodded.

Now the former Heavenly Kingdom Army is clearly scared of being beaten.

If you mention fighting the Ming army now, I am afraid that more than half of your own army will flee before the fight starts.

So it was impossible to fight at all.

"You can leave if you want, I want food, weapons, and ammunition!"

Qi Lin gritted his teeth and said.

"The emperor can't let our 20 or [-] people go to the Western Regions to die!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Hanchao hurriedly said: "The Generalissimo's Mansion has issued a military order, and the military rations have been allocated to the customs. A lot of gunpowder and lead ammunition have also been transported, enough for us to fight in the Western Regions for a year or two."

Qi Lin nodded when he heard the words: "After expelling Le Bao, can we make our home in the Western Regions?"

"Not yet, the emperor's promise is... Let us go to the Fergana Basin."

"Where is that?"

"In Central Asia."

"Central Asia?"

"The former Protectorate of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty is in that area."

"That's thousands of miles away from the Central Plains." Qi Lin sighed, "Forget it, Emperor Zhu is so fierce, this king is also afraid, it's better to stay away from him."

"My lord, I heard that the Fergana Basin is richer than Guanzhong. There are several big rivers flowing between the two mountains. It is the best farming land in Central Asia."

Zhang Hanchao said.

Qi Lin waved his hand: "So what if it's better than Guanzhong? We are surrounded by powerful enemies. When we get there, we will be controlled by Emperor Zhu. He will bite whoever he tells us to bite. Maybe we will be cunning and dead dogs." cooking!"

"My lord, in the west, there are plenty of cunning rabbits. I'm afraid we can work with lackeys for 200 years." Zhang Hanchao said with a wry smile.

"Yes, all the descendants will have to treat him as a dog for Emperor Zhu."

Qi Lin was even more helpless.

"It doesn't matter, pass on the king's order, and the guards will immediately mobilize troops and march west after gathering in Chang'an!"
