Longevity Begins with Jinyiwei - Chapter 592
Remember [New] for a second,! Kunming Palace City, the Governor’s Palace of Yunnan and Guizhou.
The map of the land of Yungui hangs high, and Yan Shun stands in front of the map with his hands behind his back, but there is no joy in calming Yungui at all, but there is a deep worry.
He has never presided over civil affairs, nor has he governed one region and one province alone, but… Anyone who knows a little about military affairs can see what a mess the Yunnan-Guizhou Land is like.
Yunnan and Guizhou have many mountains and steep terrain. Although there are many Han people, most of them live along the official roads and live in the cities of various prefectures and counties. Outside the cities, most of the dangerous places are the territory of local chieftains.
And these chieftains all have their own customs, their own language, and their own power structure. They are all a country within a country!
And the steep terrain of Yunnan and Guizhou is doomed that Daheng soldiers are best at fighting with large corps, and it is difficult to start.
Moreover, the rugged terrain brought about a rugged and steep road. Mu Tianbo was defeated in Guizhou, but Mu Tianbo kept fleeing to Kunming. The reason is because of the rugged road.
Moreover, there are not many Han people, and most of the chieftains are countries within a country, which means that the taxation and self-sufficiency of the two provinces may be a problem, let alone meet the needs of hundreds of thousands of troops stationed.
Up to now, the grain salaries for the conquest of Yunnan and Guizhou are still transported from Sichuan, Guangxi and other places. The rough road brings the terrible loss of grain on the road. A stone of grain is transported from Sichuan to Kunming. Three out of ten is good.
In this way, it is doomed that it is impossible to maintain the existence of a large-scale elite garrison for a long time. It can only maintain the self-sufficiency of the army in the form of garrisoning the frontier. 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 Yungui.
Can…
At this point, Yan Shun suddenly shook his head, he knew that this was impossible.
Just like that in Liaodong, the imperial court almost lost a few years of total tax revenue, and there is today’s Liao Province!
But the premise for the court to invest so much money and material resources in the sea is that hundreds of thousands of troops will be slaughtered for more than half a year, followed by hundreds of thousands of troops patrolling day and night, ploughing the courtyard and sweeping holes again and again, the entire Liaodong is almost smashed into the ground!
It’s a victory! It has completely eliminated the troubles! Only then has the human and material resources invested in the sea.
The powerful Liaodong can better deter North Korea and maintain North Korea’s stability.
This is, of course, clear.
But, what about the land of Yungui?
The hidden dangers are endless, and it will take a long time to make ends meet to affect the assimilation. There may be countless conflicts in this process.
This kind of thing, he doesn’t have to think about it, the emperor will never do it.
With the consistent style of the emperor, I am afraid that he would rather smash Yunnan and Guizhou to pieces, and like Liaodong, it will cost a lot of manpower and material resources to rebuild, and he will not be willing to assimilate slowly.
“So… this Governor of Yungui, what should I do?”
Yan Shun frowned and muttered to himself. After a long time, his brows eased slightly.
It’s not how he wants to do it, but the environment determines how he does it.
With the current situation in Jiangnan, it is extremely difficult to stabilize within a few years.
Without stability in Jiangnan, he would not be able to support his big moves in Yungui.
What he has to do is to temporarily stabilize the situation in Yunnan and Guizhou before Jiangnan stabilizes, win over and divide the chieftains from all over the world, expand their advantages, and prepare for a big move.
Then, when it is time to make a big move, the Son of Heaven will inevitably have a will to issue, and then he can follow the will and act…
Thinking of this, Yan Shun couldn’t help but let out a long sigh of relief, his eyes wandered on the map, and finally he wandered over several vassal states bordering Yunnan for a while, and then he looked at the coastal territories of several vassal states.
Open up the frontier…
The Governor here, the future seems to be really promising…
…
In the harsh winter, there is more or less turbulence in the north and south of Daheng, but this turbulence is completely insignificant compared to the grassland under the cold winter.
In fact, this vast expanse of grassland is turbulent every winter, even every moment.
However, no one will care about this cruel turmoil until there is a unified overlord.
After all, the grasslands have been a cruel environment for the survival of the fittest since ancient times.
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. A nearly unified grassland, turbulent, was naturally extremely dazzling.
For example, the turmoil in troubled times and the turmoil within the Great Unification Dynasty, the meanings of the two are obviously completely different.
In today’s Mongolian grasslands, it is obviously the turmoil under the great unification!
Repeated defeats and repeated trips to the south to no avail, seemed to be a great blow to the prestige of Lin Dan Khan, the Mongolian Khan.
In addition, Daheng strictly guards the border, and does not let a little material go out of the customs.
If it was in the past, Lin Dan Khan naturally only needed to take care of his basic Chahar department.
But Mongolia has been unified for a long time. He Lin Danhan is the Mongolian Khan. In the past, there was a Daheng border exchange market, so Lin Danhan could use 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 did not get the slightest victory, 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 the winter and the lack of food, is like a virus spreading, and it is in rapid chaos.
In this cruel environment, it is impossible to take out the food and meat for the various tribes to survive the cold winter. The prestige of the Mongolian Khan is naturally useless!
At the beginning, Lin Dan Khan also used the momentum of thunder to extinguish the turmoil of several tribes, but as the crisis of survival spread, Lin Dan Khan was both determined but powerless.
In the end, I could only sit and watch the various tribes fight and **** each other, hoping that this winter would pass quickly.
Of course, it is natural to send messengers to Daheng, bringing valuables of gold and silver, and ask Daheng to help.
However, this mission was stopped before it entered the Daheng border.
The news reached the capital, but only the emperor sneered.
In the past, the opening of the mutual market was to stabilize Mongolia, so that Daheng had time to sort out the internals and clear the back gold.
But now, after the gold is gone and Jiangnan is flat, it is obvious that the next thing to deal with is Mongolia~www.mtlnovel.com~ If he wants to open the mutual market and rescue Mongolia, that is, there is a problem with his brain.
The result is obvious, the emperor naturally did not respond in the slightest, but ordered the military and legal department to send several inspection teams to inspect various borders and strictly combat smuggling.
Afterwards, the emperor summoned the Ministry of War, the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies, and the generals of the General Staff to discuss the strategy against Mongolia again.
Up to now, Daheng’s strategy for Mongolia is already very clear, of course, it is still the same old pattern of all dynasties.
One, of course, is to block the border and cut off the most important source of materials for the Mongolian grasslands.
The second is to provoke differentiation and win over, so that the more chaotic the Mongolian grasslands, the better!
A very simple and old-fashioned strategy, but for Mongolia, it is extremely effective.
After all, for most Mongolian tribes, there has never been much sense of ethnicity, let alone the threat of tribal peril.
Without the internal drag, a unified dynasty, even if it is just underhanded and conspiracy against the grasslands, is enough to make the grassland desert… overwhelmed…
