Chapter 1510: Combat Staff

"Your second brother is King Anbei, so he will be the next negotiation." Zhu Yicheng said lightly.

Zhu Bo? Immediately, Zhu Bowei understood what Zhu Yicheng meant. Zhu Bowei is now in Mongolia. Shortly after getting married, Zhu Bowei returned to Mongolia with his princess Qiqige. Then, based on Qiqige's tribe, plus several small tribes around and the Han population who immigrated from the Central Plains, the royal palace guards formed a new large tribe.

This tribe does not use the name of the previous Mongolian tribe, nor does it use the name of Khalkha Mongol in the north of the desert, but uses the name of Anbei Mongolia.

When Zhu Yicheng was appointed as King Anbei of Zhu Boqi, the purpose of making this son take charge of the northern land and to enthrone the old land of the Anbei Protectorate during the Tang Dynasty to Zhu Boqi.

According to geographical location, the old Anbei Protectorate not only included Mongolia in the northern desert, but also the Siberian region, including the Baikal region. From this point of view, the Ming Dynasty attacked Russia not only to interrupt Russia's continuous expansion to the east and south over the years, but also to seize this territory and then take over the territory, Zhu Boshi, the King of Anbei, took over the territory of the Ming Dynasty as a fief.

In the early Ming Dynasty, it was very common for the king to lead the border. After Zhu Yuanzhang expelled the Tartar slaves and restored China, his biggest enemy in the Ming Dynasty was the Mongols.

Although the Yuan Dynasty withdrew from the Central Plains, the Mongols were still powerful and had the ability to counterattack at any time. In order to use troops against Mongolia, attack and weaken Mongolia's power, Zhu Yuanzhang successively sealed his sons on the northern border.

Among these kings, the most famous one was King Yan Zhu Di, who later became Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty. Now Zhu Yicheng specially appointed Zhu Boqi as King of Anbei, which was somewhat similar to Zhu Yuanzhang at that time.

But the difference is that Zhu Boqi's Anbei King was farther away than Zhu Difeng back then. After all, whether it was Mongolia or the Siberian region that had just been conquered by the Ming Dynasty, these places are different from the Central Plains and are even more different from overseas territories.

The northern desert and Siberia are vast and sparsely populated, and there is also a vicious wolf, that is, Russia is eyeing it. Zhu Boqin, as King Anbei, has a very heavy responsibility. He not only needs to assist the court in stabilizing Mongolia, but also needs to beware of every move of Russia.

It is precisely because of this that Zhu Yicheng made such arrangements and named Qiqige the princess of Mobei. As for whether Zhu Bowei or his descendants would be like Zhu Di back then, Zhu Yicheng was not worried at all. The current Ming Dynasty royal family was not the Ming Dynasty royal family that was back then, and the center was extremely powerful. Zhu Bowei was Zhu Yicheng's only son to be crowned king. His responsibility was to protect the north.

Besides, even if Zhu Yicheng has a hundred years later, Zhu Yicheng would not worry about any thoughts that Zhu Bowei should not have. As the saying goes, meat is rotten in the pot. If Zhu Bowei's descendants do not have the ability to control this empire, then what if there is another Chengzu? The Ming Dynasty is still the Ming Dynasty of the old Zhu family.

"There was something unusual in the Qing court in the northwest." After talking about the north, Zhu Yicheng talked about the northwest to the prince.

"Has the Qing court really advanced westward?" Zhu Bo's expression moved slightly.

Zhu Yicheng nodded and handed him a piece of stuff. After taking it, Zhu Bo? After taking it, he hurriedly looked at it, looked at it for a few times and raised his head to Zhu Yicheng and said, "The father is not bad at all. It seems that the Qing court is indeed going to transfer to India."

Zhu Yicheng had long made some judgments about the Qing court's intention to invade India. Every move of the Qing court was under the strict surveillance of the Ming Dynasty, especially the spies stationed by the Jinyiwei in the Qing court kept transmitting information about the Qing court back to the Ming Dynasty.

Some people in the court recognized and some doubted this matter. After all, the transfer from the Western Regions to India is not simply arriving from one place to another. The journey from the Western Regions to India is more than a thousand miles away, and there are towering mountains in the middle. Although the population of the Qing court is far inferior to that of the Central Plains, there are also many. The migration of hundreds of thousands or even millions of people is not a trivial matter. Such military actions can be said to have been heard in history.

Moreover, the Qing court is still attacking Tibet, which gives people a stance to compete with the Ming Dynasty after taking Tibet and the Western Regions. Therefore, there are many people who are doubtful about the Qing court's intention to transfer to India. In their opinion, the Qing court should not do this. After all, the Qing court has not yet reached the end of its reach. The risk of moving from the Western Regions to India is too great, and the Qing court should not take such a risk.

But Zhu Yicheng was sure that Kant would do this. As an opponent, Kant was a good opponent. Moreover, judging from the current situation of the Qing court, even if he took over Tibet, he would not be able to avoid the end of being destroyed by the Ming Dynasty. Kant was not a person who was waiting to die. He must have his own ideas. In addition, the failure of Kant's reforms caused the Qing court to be unable to continue to maintain the rule of the Western Regions. In this case, the rich India was more attractive to Kant. Even if there were any losses during the migration process, it was still the best way out for the Qing court.

Now, all the information has confirmed this and confirmed that Zhu Yicheng's judgment is correct. In this regard, Zhu Bo was impressed and promising, while bursts of desire and excitement surged deep in his heart.

"Father, my Ming Dynasty has come to take over Tibet and the Western Regions!" Zhu Bo said happily.

Zhu Yicheng also laughed and nodded with relief. Zhu Bo? That's right, the opportunity has come. If the Qing court wants to start moving to India, then the final madness will inevitably be carried out in the Western Regions and Tibet, and this madness is plunder.

The Qing court's foundation is very weak now. With the current financial resources and materials of the Qing court, the Qing court's military operations were unable to support the Qing court's transfer to India. To ensure that the transfer is successful, it is necessary to raise a large amount of materials, food, grass, and even civilians.

Under such circumstances, the Qing court would plunder the various ethnic groups in the Western Regions, including Tibet, which was also the original mantra of the Manchus. This was how the ancestors of the Manchus did it, using swords, guns and high pressure to plunder the land for their use, which led to the later Later Jin and the so-called "Qing Dynasty".

Now, Kant has simply used a set that his ancestors used. In addition, Kant himself knew that doing this was necessary, and only in this way could he meet his plan and maintain the rule of the Qing Dynasty. Zhu Yicheng has been waiting for this opportunity to wait for Kant to make ruthless moves towards the Western Regions and Tibet. This would be the best opportunity for the Ming Dynasty to completely capture these two regions and directly rule.

When Kant plundered the place and even killed people and set fires, everything Kant did was to clear the obstacles for the later Ming Dynasty. At the same time, when Kant left and entered the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty could easily gain support from all local tribes in the posture of a savior, so that the Ming Dynasty could obtain the foundation for legal rule in these two places at the minimum cost.

This is also the reason why Zhu Yicheng ordered Yue Zhongqi's troops and Yunnan, Sichuan and other troops in the Western Regions to prepare, but did not send troops immediately. Especially for Ce Wang Alabandan, who is currently in a mess, the Ming Dynasty only provided some material support and did not send a large army to assist in the battle.

In Zhu Yicheng's eyes, Cewang Alabutan was just a tool used to target the Qing court. Zhu Yicheng did not intend to keep Cewang Alabutan and the Junggar tribe from the beginning. It would be best if he could both lose and even die together with the Qing Dynasty. Only in this way can the Ming Dynasty completely take over the Western Regions and Tibet, he would not create a strong opponent for himself.

As a tool man, the ending of Cewang Alabutan and the Junggar tribe was long destined. He either died at the hands of Kant or under the swords and guns of the Ming Dynasty. Of course, Zhu Yicheng hoped that it was the former, so while instructing the countermeasures of Cewang Alabutan to maintain partial support, the Ming Dynasty's Jinyiwei had long secretly "helped" Kant to "help" the leader through the hidden lines buried within the Qing court. This is also the reason why Cewang Alabutan was exhausted after throwing away Lassa, like a dog that was lost.

"The General Staff will make plans for the dispatch of troops from the Western Regions and Tibet in the past few days. You are in the Battle Department now, so you can take this opportunity to experience it well." Zhu Yicheng reminded the prince, and Zhu Bo nodded to show his understanding, but his expression was filled with a look of wanting to speak but stopping.

"Father, I want to ask my father for the favor and approve me to go to the front line to check it out." After seeing Zhu Yicheng finishing his words, Zhu Bo's eyes returned to the official documents. He knew that Zhu Yicheng would continue to handle official duties next, which means that he could go back and rest first. After hesitating for a while, Zhu Bo's courage to speak and said to Zhu Yicheng.

Zhu Yicheng looked up at him with a little surprise, frowned slightly and asked, "Your appointment in the General Staff Department has not yet ended, why are you so anxious?"

Zhu Bo said a little nervously: "Father, I feel that after the war between the Western Regions and Tibet ends, there will be basically no major war in the Central Plains. As for the north, the same is true. Once the negotiations with Russia are completed, the next step is the long-term confrontation stage. As the crown prince, I have little experience in war. If I just talk about war on paper, this is not in line with my father's expectations for my father. Therefore, I beg my father to let my son go to the front line. Didn't my father always want to completely recapture the Western Regions and Tibet? Let me do this for my father!"

Bo Zhu? He was a little hesitant in his words at the beginning, but at the end he raised his head and looked at Zhu Yicheng with a firm look, with an extremely firmness and confidence in his expression.

Looking at his eldest son carefully, Zhu Yicheng's expression was slightly serious, but slowly softened again.

No matter how beautiful the flowers raised in a greenhouse are, they will never be able to become rich without experiencing wind and frost. Although Zhu Bo has participated in a small-scale naval battle in the southern continent during his service in the navy, that level of war is at best just a house.

Zhu Bo? is right. Once the Western Regions and Tibet are taken down, the Ming Dynasty's local wars will basically end. As for the future, it will probably take a long time to go. Zhu Bo? As a young man and the successor of an empire, it is certainly good to have such an idea.

"You go to Yue Zhongqi's army and serve as a combat staff member under him. However, I would like to warn you that the army has its own rules. You are a soldier. This should be clear. You must not act without authorization, and you must not disturb the command of the army by relying on your identity. If there is any violation, don't blame your father for being ruthless!"
