Chapter 79 Emperor Daoguang's Great Ambition

Chapter 79 Emperor Daoguang is so ambitious! (Please collect and read)

Cars rattled, horses rustled, and pedestrians carried rifles on their shoulders.

It is the season of autumn in the Famine Steppe north of Samarkand. Even the sky is exceptionally clear and bright at this time, with no clouds in the sky. The Famine Steppe has turned into a plump golden yellow, and it does not look famine at all.

Among the golden grass, there are scattered groups of yurts. Cattle, sheep and horses are swimming on this golden grassland.

On the road leading from Xianmen Pass to Samarkand, there was a quite large army walking. The momentum of this army was quite huge. The whole army was either on horseback or in chariots, and no one was on foot. It was a real

The "Mule and Horse Corps". The weapons and equipment of the "Mule and Horse Corps" look pretty good. Not only do everyone carry rifles on their backs, they also carry waist knives, and there are several wooden handle grenades hanging on their belts!

And each team (company) of cavalry is equipped with at least one water-cooled machine gun mounted on a small vehicle and a 60 mm caliber mortar. The firepower looks quite powerful!

In addition, at the end of each battalion-level marching column, there is a small group of cavalry artillery, dragging two 75mm light mountain guns bumping forward on the rugged grassland. At the end of each brigade-level column, there is a group of cavalry artillerymen.

The carts drawn by mules and horses are fully loaded with baggage and ammunition. Among these carts, there are six horse-drawn 75mm light mountain guns, which should be the equipment of the brigade artillery company. 75mm

Although the mountain artillery is a bit weak at the brigade level, fortunately it is maneuverable enough, and it is just right in Central Asia where "there are no roads outside the Wuji Valley".

Around the marching group, there were many riders who looked quite capable, some were carrying large guns, and some were carrying revolvers. A warning net was spread out all around.

In the middle of the marching brigade, there were three thousand cavalrymen wearing yellow jackets. They did not wear helmets, but only wore warm hats. These yellow jackets also carried large guns on their backs and carried swords on their shoulders. They looked no different from ordinary cavalry, but

He is extremely tall, and you can tell from a glance that he is an elite member of the army.

Emperor Daoguang of the Kingdom of Jin and his most trusted ministers He Shen, Mu Zhang'a, and Sai Shang'a are now riding together under the protection of this group of yellow mantles.

Looking at the armies at the front, rear and left, Emperor Daoguang couldn't be more proud of himself.

This force was saved by the Jin Kingdom's "efforts to have babies" in the Wuji Valley for more than a hundred years.

I think that when the "Immortal Ancestor" Emperor Kangxi ran away to the Wuji Valley, all the people in Manchuria were exhausted! Fortunately, the group of people in the Wuji Valley were so weak that they were broken to pieces, and they were in the valley every day.

They are killing each other inside, otherwise it’s not certain who will win!

Although the "immortal ancestor" Kangxi relied on less than 10,000 Manchu troops to pacify the Wuji Valley, and controlled the Kazakh grassland with the elite Junggar soldiers and Horqin Mongolian troops obtained when he married Galdan's wife Anu.

Emperor Kangxi, who had suffered enough from the small population of his country, did not expand aggressively in Central Asia after that. Instead, he took about 100,000 Manchurians and retreated into Wuji Valley, built Xianmen Pass, and began to recuperate.

This recuperation lasted until the Yongzheng period, when the population of the Dajin nation finally reached 700,000-800,000, and the Wuji Valley was completely suppressed by the Manchus. At the same time, the Mongolian population on the Kazakh grasslands also increased to about one million.

With a population of 17.8 million, the Kingdom of Jin could finally control the Khans of Samarkand, Bukhara, Khwarezm, Tashkent and other places who believed in the Tianfang religion. However, the "immortal ancestor" Kangxi lost his country

The lesson is still too profound!

Therefore, the three emperors Yongzheng, Qianlong, and Jiaqing did not dare to "blindly expand". They just centered on Wuji Valley and expanded the direct-administered areas bit by bit. They did not seek speed, but only stability. It took nearly a hundred years to expand the area around Wuji Valley.

Large areas of the mountainous area were cleared and turned into homes for Banner people and mixed-race Banner people.

For "big territories" like Samarkand, Bukhara, Khwarezm, and Tashkent, the three emperors Yongzheng, Qianlong, and Jiaqing tried to boil the frog in warm water and gradually expand the authority of the patriarch of Daikin.

During the reign of Emperor Daoguang, the governor sent by Wuji Valley not only had the power to supervise the payment of taxes by the Khan kings under him, but also had a directly subordinate castle (bastion) and a guard (composed of Taoists who were not under the banner).

If we follow the established development route, by Daoguang's generation, he should have completely eaten up the Tashkent Governor-General District, which is closest to Wuji Valley. However, Daoguang encountered a problem that he had not expected before - the national population is multiplying too fast!

Not counting the Mongols on the Kazakh grasslands, the number of bannermen and mixed-race bannermen in the Wuji Valley already exceeds three million, and in a few years there will be four million. These are not ordinary people, but military aristocrats.

He only undertakes military service, does not pay taxes, and can also enjoy the two major benefits of "allotment of land" and "free education". It's fine when there are few people, but when there are more people, the Jin Dynasty becomes worried. There is not enough land in Wuji Valley

points, and the education expenses are too much. But this is not the most troublesome thing. The most troublesome thing is that these more than three million people are all military people, and among them, there are no less than 300,000 who are suitable for joining the army!

If these 300,000 people are used in the right place, they may be able to achieve great success, but the Kingdom of Jin is sandwiched between the Ming Dynasty, Rakshasa and India under the British rule. The Ming Dynasty has a population of 360 million, the largest in the world

Industrial country! Counting Indians, Great Britain has a population of almost 300 million, making it the second industrial country in the world! Although the population and industry of Rakshasa are far inferior to those of Ming and Great Britain, there is no problem in crushing Daikin. In addition, the Rakshasa people are relatively

Fierce and fierce, Daikin will never be able to defeat others.

So Emperor Daoguang could only worry about it until Zhuge came to help him enter India to beg for food!

This played right into his plan!

No matter how you want this "meal", it is still an opportunity!

A burst of rapid hoofbeats suddenly came from the front, interrupting Emperor Daoguang's thoughts. He raised his head and looked forward, and saw several fast horses galloping from the front. The knights on the horses followed his dragon flag.

, ran dozens of steps in front of his horse before being stopped by the alert yellow mandarin. After checking the token and correcting the password, one of the riders was led to Daoguang by a yellow mandarin. The cavalryman turned over and dismounted.

, made a neat salute, and reported loudly: "Your Majesty, the Governor of Samarkand and the Lord of Samarkand, Ali Khan led the nobles in the city to greet the soldiers a hundred miles away, and they were waiting twenty miles ahead to welcome the heavenly soldiers.

Holy driver!"

When Daoguang heard this, he smiled and waved his hand, and asked the messenger to ride down on the pond horse to receive the reward. Then he smiled and said to the left and right: "He Shen, Mu Zhang, Sai Shang. With our momentum, the British are not

Maybe you don’t know?”

"Your Majesty," He Shen was the first to reply, "the British have a consulate general in Samarkand, and the profiteers of the East India Company have long been rooted in Samarkand. When we took the oath outside Xianmen Pass, I'm afraid that here

Some people have already heard the news."

"Your Majesty, if the British know the great power of our Great Golden Heavenly Soldier, they might be able to quickly pay for it!" Mu Zhang'a made a wishful thinking for Daoguang, "At that time, Your Majesty, you will be able to

Exhibit your ambitions!"

Saishang'a was not so optimistic. He frowned slightly and said, "How can the British be so easy to talk to? They are known as the empire on which the sun never sets, and they have also experienced great storms. I'm afraid they still have to defeat the British soldiers once in Afghanistan!"

Emperor Daoguang nodded slightly, then looked up at an airship floating a thousand meters above, and then said with a smile: "It takes victory once. Only after winning once can I, Da Jin, negotiate terms with Da Ying! Da Ming Gong

My purpose in joining the seal is to find out the reality of Great Britain. If I win, Great Ming will soon end up playing with Great Britain. By then, Great Britain will not want my 300,000-strong army to be around.

Watch it!"

"The Emperor's Holy Ming!"

"The emperor has no plans left, he is truly the reincarnation of Zhuge Liang!"

"Your Majesty, you are my number one fortune teller!"

I strongly recommend a new book - the animistic masterpiece "The Tang Dynasty: A Guard of the Anxi Frontier Army"

The prosperous age they were looking forward to has quietly passed away. When the tigers, leopards and wolves came, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty took up the weapons to protect their homes and the country. In the barren land of Anxi, they fought against the Tubo people who wanted to seize the land of Anxi.

People started a bloody battle.

"The battle flag of the Tang Dynasty will not fall, and the spirit of the Tang army will last forever!"
