The third prince Zhu looked at this "Shunzhi" who looked more like Li Zicheng, and he also complained a little bit about Zhang Xixian in his heart - could Shunzhi be like this? He speaks Shaanxi dialect and says "uh", "uh" and "uh"... It's almost the same if he's from Li Zicheng's family! Is it really okay to send it to Yingtian Mansion like this?
He glanced at Zhang Xixian and suddenly saw a middle-aged lama with a melancholy temperament and a noble manner - to be honest, this Ford Lama looked more like Shunzhi than the man Zhang Xixian had found!
But Prince Zhu can't let this Ford Lama pretend to be Shunzhi!
This Ford Lama, as well as his two senior brothers, Sanbao Lama and Mingzhu Lama, are still very important to Prince Zhu San!
He had to use these three lamas to stabilize the Jungar Kingdom, and they brokered a compromise between the Jungar Kingdom and the Dai Kingdom.
Now the number of "nationals" in the Jungar Kingdom and the Heshuote Kingdom attached to Jungar has exceeded 1 million... There are many strong men who can be pulled out to fight the enemy. At 100,000.
The total number of military households brought by Prince Zhu to Beiting and Daiguo was just over 10,000 (households). In addition, some small Mongolian tribes from the Tumut Khanate and Chahar Khanate were also settled on the grasslands of Beiting and Dai, with more than 10,000 households.
In other words, the third prince Zhu can draw up more than 20,000 soldiers and horses. Moreover, among the more than 20,000 people, only a small part are professional soldiers with relatively reliable combat effectiveness. The rest are farmers and soldiers or herders and soldiers.
With this power, it is certainly impossible to defeat the powerful Jungar Kingdom. Moreover, for the sake of his own interests, the Third Prince Zhu could not destroy the Zhungeer Kingdom. Because without the Jungar Kingdom, it would be impossible for him to suppress the tribes and Rakshasa Kingdom in the Western Region with his own 20,000 people.
Therefore, Prince Zhu's "Zhungeer Policy" is to obtain part of the territory of Dayuzi and Zhongyuzi while maintaining the alliance with Zhungeer.
This task may seem difficult to complete, but in fact it is not impossible... because the interests on the Great Yuzi and Zhongyuzi grasslands are actually very important to the Zhungeer people who have "entered the city". Very limited - you can collect taxes and exploit, so who cares about herding sheep? And it’s not like there aren’t grasslands where sheep can graze in southern Central Asia.
Of course, there are not no people in the Jungar Kingdom who want to graze on the Zhongyuzi Grassland... After Sengge went south to the river, the "Southern Movement Sect" and the "Northward Movement Sect" appeared in the Jungar Kingdom. "Sent".
Among them, the southern advance group advocates placing the focus of development in southern Central Asia. After completely pacifying the Fergana Basin, they will then move to Bukhara and conquer the Khwarezm Oasis along the Amu Darya River west. After wiping out the remnants of the Khiva Khanate occupying the Khwarezm Oasis, the Khoshot Kingdom was transferred to the Khwarezm Oasis. Finally, the capital was moved to Fergana, and two 10,000 households were transferred to guard Samarkand and Bukhara.
In this way, the richest land in Central Asia is completely under the control of the Junggar Kingdom!
The northbound faction had the opposite view and believed that all the big, middle and small Yuzi should be captured. We should use Chuhe Prefecture as the center of rule, gradually move westward and northward, build new strongholds, and drive the Rakshasa people away from Zhongyuzi and Xiaoyuzi step by step, and even seek to restore the territory of the Siberian Khanate.
According to this faction's opinion, the fertile land in the river can be handed over to Tianfang believers for self-governance, as long as taxes and donations can be collected, there is no need to control it too much.
Of course, King Sengge, Geldan Wanhu, and Chuhuer Ubash Wanhu, the princes and dignitaries of Jungar who made huge profits from the southward movement, all belonged to the southward faction. Since they were all members of the ruling court of Jungar, going south was actually Junggar's national policy.
Several "nomadic households" headed by Sengge's elder brother, Chechen Taiji Wanhu and Zhuote Babatul Wanhu, all belong to the northward movement - they have no share in the interests of going south, but they are left in the middle. There were endless battles with the Rakshasa and Kazakhs on the Yuzi grassland. Of course they did not support going south. So these years they have been clamoring to maintain Mongolian traditions and have trouble with people like Sengge, Geerdan, and Chuhuer Ubas.
Should we go south or north...of course it depends on where the interests lie!
The Third Prince Zhu had been watching next door for several years, and felt that there should be no more fighting within the Zhungeer Kingdom, and that the land in Zhongyuzi and most of Dayuzi should be managed by himself!
It's a pretty good land, but you Mongolians don't know how to run it, you just know how to herd it. It's a complete waste!
From now on, the Jungar Kingdom will head south, and I will be responsible for heading north...
However, the people of the Zhungeer Kingdom were not so easy to talk to, so they obediently handed over most of the territory of Dayuzi and Zhongyuzi to Prince Zhu.
Therefore, the Third Prince Zhu still had to work hard, and he had to work hard to find a shocking injustice first!
...
"Bold blessing comes!"
The Third Prince Zhu shouted angrily, and immediately someone in the festival hall felt his legs soften and sat down on the ground. Of course, this person is not the Shaanxi-style "Shunzhi", but the Ford Lama in monk's robes - he is now the "prisoner" of the third prince Zhu, and he is not so calm.
Prince Zhu also discovered the weak-legged Ford Lama and his guilty conscience...but he still did not doubt the true identity of Ford Lama. So he quickly said warmly: "Master, don't be afraid, the lonely king is talking about Fulin, not Ford."
I am Fulin! Lama Ford is so guilty!
Prince Zhu smiled and ordered: "Bring a chair to the master."
The chair was quickly moved, and Zhang Xixian enthusiastically helped the real Fulin to the chair, letting him sit and watch Prince Zhu San interrogate the fake Fulin.
Prince Zhu's face darkened again. He looked at the fake Fulin and shouted angrily: "Bold Fulin, you dare to hide something until now. Do you have to be tortured before you can confess?"
"Don't use torture," Fake Fulin became anxious when he heard that he was about to be tortured, and shouted, "Whatever the king wants to say, I will say it. Why use torture? After all, it means death, and I can give him a happy life. If I want to suffer, Let’s forget about the piecemeal pain..."
This fake Fulin is a horse thief on the grassland. He has done countless murders and arson. He would not die a good death in the hands of Prince Zhu San, so he was persuaded by Zhang Xixian to take Fulin's blame - Zhang Xixian and He said that Fulin had been an emperor after all, and his two sisters were both Emperor Zhu's concubines. Even if they had to be killed, they would still have a good death. And before you die, you will definitely eat and drink well!
In addition, after he took Fulin's charge, he would not die immediately. He would have to be transferred to prison and held in three courts, and it was possible to delay it for a year or two.
Live an extra year or two, eat and drink well, and finally die a good death. It’s all a profit!
When the Third Prince Zhu heard that this fake Fulin wanted to give up, he had no choice but to hold his nose and said gently: "Don't be afraid of Fulin, I'm just scaring you, and no one will really beat you, as long as you tell the truth." I colluded with the Three Feuds in the Snow Region, so I can eat and drink well. Do you want to eat well?"
What he said...many people in the lobby almost laughed out loud. After all, Fulin had been an emperor, how could he not have had good food?
Prince Zhu also felt something was wrong. He glanced left and right and coughed twice, but he finally made no sound.
The fake Fulin looked at the Third Prince Zhu blankly, "Well, of course I want to eat well, but what is the Snow Land San Francisco?"
"They are the three vassal towns under the jurisdiction of three bandit leaders, Li Dingguo, Ai Nengqi, and Liu Wenxiu, who pretended to surrender," Prince Zhu could only explain patiently. "Because their territory is on the snowy plateau, they are called the Snowy Three vassals. .....You are also in collusion with them, and are preparing to launch an attack together to seize the Ming Dynasty!"
Fake Fulin nodded, "Oh, oh, I understand... Well, Li Dingguo, Ai Nengqi, and Liu Wenxiu were also in the same group. They kowtowed and drank in front of the ancestor Taizu's soul together. Blood wine.”
"They are two great ancestors!" Prince Zhu San added, "The tablets of Nurhachi and Li Zicheng are placed together!"
"Your Majesty," Zhang Xixian heard something was wrong and immediately interrupted, "They are the three Taizus and the tablet of Zhang Xianzhong."
"That's right," the third prince Zhu said with a smile, "I forgot about offering the thief! Can you, Fulin, remember that?"
"I don't have a good memory, so I'm afraid I'll forget..."
The Third Prince Zhu waved to his brother Zhu Cixuan. The Ninth Prince immediately stepped forward. The Third Prince Zhu asked, "Do you remember?"
"Remember, I remember."
"Well, I have to tell him repeatedly on the way to respond to Tianfu!" Prince Zhu said, "Also, let him recognize the person."
"Recognize someone? Who do you recognize?"
Prince Zhu pointed at Jin Boguo and Xuan Ye and said with a smile: "Recognize his brother and son!"
