"Now it's time for the Qing Dynasty to make a choice. We must admit that fighting in the south, it is already difficult for the Qing army to withstand the Ming Dynasty's offensive!"
Qianlong took a deep breath and said.
Of course, the wise old man knows that if he wants to get everything, he will probably lose everything in the long run.
"But we can't just give up the South to us."
Qianlong took a few steps back and forth.
"First, if you sell the provinces that are not occupied by Ni Ming to the local powerful, I can give you full power! If you want to dominate the local area and become a local emperor, you will have to trouble Ni Ming! I don't believe it. Zhu Daohua is as generous as me!"
Of course that's generous.
The ruling group of the Qing Dynasty ranged from the emperor to the nobles of the Eight Banners.
But they all regard the Han region as a trophy and are ready to leave at any time.
They start from the beginning.
I don’t think of myself as a person from this land.
So there is no mental burden at all when selling it.
It was hard-topped in the south, and then occupied by the Ming army one province after another.
Or just cash in the chips you have on hand, make a fortune and walk away.
Qianlong, Heshen, Fukang'an, Agui and others all figured it out very clearly.
It wasn't just Qianlong who was shrewd.
These loyal ministers and generals of the Qing Dynasty were also very clear.
"Of course, we can't let Ni Ming take it easy. Several key points in the south still need to be defended. One is the Yangtze River Estuary, with Jiangning Mansion as the core, and the several forts on the Yangtze River. We need to continue to strengthen and add more. Artillery! As long as Ni Ming's navy cannot enter the Yangtze River, the situation in the south will continue to be delayed!"
Qianlong took a deep breath.
"The current situation is similar to the situation when the Ming Dynasty perished. The rebellion against the Ming Dynasty started in the south. They will not cross the Yangtze River until the situation in the south is completely sorted out!"
Qianlong knew very well that the Ming army was now taking a step-by-step approach.
Occupy a place and consolidate a place.
Build high walls and store grain?
The tradition of their Lao Zhu family.
The top priority now is the religious bandits who have entered Sichuan and are very likely to enter Guanzhong. In fact, Qianlong was greatly relieved that the White Lotus Army entered Sichuan.
After all, if the White Lotus Sect's army enters Henan directly from Xiangyang... it will really be imminent.
This can also reveal some of the problems of ordinary refugee regimes.
For example, Liu Zhixie's counselor gave him the bad idea of "taking Guanzhong and conquering the world".
It's a typical example of a book that is worse than no book at all.
Historically, Guanzhong was indeed a place of dominion. It could be advanced, attacked, retreated, or defended. It was also a fertile wilderness, capable of educating millions of people and hundreds of thousands of soldiers.
But now Guanzhong has gone through a series of problems such as war, population explosion, over-development, land desertification, soil erosion and so on.
Today, the population of Gansu and Shaanxi provinces is much lower than that of the Central Plains and Jiangnan.
The land problem is serious.
The production capacity is not strong.
In this era, if you still think about "taking Guanzhong and conquering the world", this is basically trying to find a sword by carving a boat or fishing by using a tree.
This is also the power of the imperial examination system, which "cages the wise men".
basically.
No matter what the imperial examination is.
It's all a mind game.
Most of those who can pass the exam are smart.
The ingenuity and talents of the smartest people in a nation have been used for many years on the Four Books, Five Classics and Eight-Part Essays that have little practical effect.
If you are lucky, you will pass the imperial examination in high school, become an official, and make a fortune.
Those who are unlucky will waste half their lives without knowing the best. By the time they accept their fate, their hair will be gray and it will be impossible for them to switch to other occupations.
The smartest people in this nation have been studying this for half their lives, or even their entire lives.
And the chance that the rare fish that slips through the net could be a type of person with superior intelligence is extremely small.
It's like the note made by Liu Zhixie's dog-headed military advisor. It has a little bit of strategy, but not much.
Of course.
No system can be perfect.
Throughout history, there have always been fish that slipped through the net.
It stirred up quite a storm.
Now for Qianlong, it is obviously not cost-effective to fight the Ming army in the south.
Return to the north and deal with the White Lotus cult bandits with all your strength.
With the money obtained from the southern provinces, it is still possible to maintain the situation of the Northern and Southern Dynasties with the Yangtze River as the boundary for the time being.
As for the future...
In Qianlong's view.
Zhu Daohua suddenly rose from Nanyang and gained such a large territory in just two years.
Sorting and managing them takes a certain amount of time.
at the same time.
Whether this new force can balance internal power and contradictions after gaining a stable territory is also a key factor in whether it can last long.
Maybe after the Qing army retreats as a threat.
This new Ming Dynasty has its own internal problems...
"Yes! The Eight Banners cannot continue to decay now. There are more than one million Manchurian Eight Banners, but we still have to pull out a hundred thousand who can fight!"
"We need to expand the army, and the coated army needs to be greatly expanded!"
"If we don't have enough money, we might as well sell the land in Liaodong. It would be a pity that the place is empty."
All of a sudden.
The Manchurian ministers present all started shouting.
Retreat to the Central Plains, revive the Eight Banners, and expand the coat army.
In addition, there are still large areas of Manchurian land that have not yet been developed.
The Qing Dynasty was not at the end of its rope yet.
The capital is still rich.
...
"What do you think, Long Live the Lord, that you just don't want this beautiful country in the south?!"
At Sun Shiyi's Nanchang residence.
Several Han officials also gathered together to complain.
"The south includes at least Zhejiang, Yunnan, Guizhou, part of Hubei, part of Jiangsu, a smaller half of the southern territory, and a large population. How can you just leave!"
"This is too..."
"Master Sun, what do you think? Are you really going to be the governor of Zhejiang and the chief soldier of the Zhejiang regiment?"
someone asked loudly.
Sun Shiyi looked calm: "You cannot violate your orders."
On the way back, he thought about it.
Let him go to Zhejiang to be the governor of Zhejiang and the general soldier of the regiment training.
If this thing is done well... there is a possibility that the princes will last for generations.
If you don't do it well, the entire clan will be killed.
The risk is very high.
But it seems now.
The Qing emperor was determined to sell his official position to raise money.
that's true...
It's not my own in the first place, so I really don't feel bad about selling it at all.
"Everyone, please go back. Your Majesty has decided that I will be the governor of Zhejiang."
Sun Shiyi stood up and served tea to see the guests off.
Wait for everyone to leave.
A young scholar came in.
"Teacher, do you really want to take this position? This is the power of Fang Jiedu. Since the San Francisco Rebellion in the Qing Dynasty, no Han has been able to achieve this position."
The young scholar said worriedly.
"Not just the Han people, but also the Manchus." Sun Shiyi sat down with a wry smile on his lips.
"I was put on fire by the old emperor, Huaitang."
The young man called Huaitang is not tall, has a round face and short shoulders. He looks like a cautious and honest person.
His name is Pan Shien, a native of Jiangsu. His father has an old relationship with Sun Shiyi, and Sun Shiyi is also optimistic about this young man who is cautious and does not violate the rules.
His eight-part essay is extremely well done, and if he polishes it for a few more years, he will definitely be able to reach high school.
At the same time, he is cautious in character, rigorous in doing things, and quite tactful.
These qualities all indicate that this young man will definitely have a place in the officialdom in the future.
Therefore, Sun Shiyi also intends to support him.
For a Han official of Sun Shiyi's level, it's time to consider supporting some towering trees in the family.
Just now it seems...
It is uncertain whether this towering tree will be used in the future.
He was pushed by Qianlong to become the governor of Zhejiang and the chief military officer of the Zhejiang regiment.
A lot of power.
Even comparable to the Jiedushi in the late Tang Dynasty.
However, Sun Shiyi had nothing in his hands.
money? Soldier?
Not at all.
Sun Shiyi himself was very pessimistic about what effect he would have if he took office empty-handed.
He knows it too.
Emperor Qianlong knew very well that even if Sun Shiyi was given such great power, he would not be able to make any trouble.
He just used Sun Shiyi's reputation to call on the Zhejiang gentry to contribute money and effort to organize team training.
By the time.
There are large and small group trainings all over Zhejiang.
If Daming wants to deal with these large and small group training in the future, I am afraid it will be a big trouble.
Whether it is paying money or directly sending troops.
All will weaken Ming's strength.
"The old emperor is really shrewd in his abacus." Sun Shiyi said, "It's not just Zhejiang, but also Hubei, Sichuan, Yunnan, and Guizhou. Each has its own high-ranking officials, and they have to train all over the place, and the war is everywhere!"
"If Ni Ming wants to use force to subdue this small group of officers, the South will be crippled after this battle." Pan Shien shook his head and said.
"Isn't this playing into the old emperor's ambition?" Sun Shiyi said.
"Teacher?" Pan Shien was startled, and then quickly realized what he was doing.
"This... this is indeed a poisonous plan, it is... it is..."
"It's just too immoral, right?" Sun Shiyi sneered, "Anyway, the Qing Dynasty hasn't done many virtuous things since they entered the customs."
"Teacher, be careful what you say, be careful what you say..." Pan Shien was so frightened that he almost felt his crotch warm.
Say this in the territory of the Qing Dynasty.
That's because there are too many people from the Nine Tribes.
Maybe even Pan Shien will be implicated a lot.
"What are you afraid of? The old emperor is about to leave."
"Retreat directly to Jiangbei? What will the world's scholars think?" Pan Shien laughed bitterly, "This... this is too cowardly."
"Yes, so the old emperor will not leave directly. He has to buy some time for us Jiedu."
"You mean?"
"There will be a bloody battle in Nanchang Mansion!"
........
Sun Shiyi is right.
Qianlong still had hundreds of thousands of southern green soldiers on hand.
Therefore, his plan is to use the hundreds of thousands of southern green soldiers here to fight here in Nanchang and finish everything.
Anyway, the Yangtze River is in his hands.
You can leave at any time.
And it is impossible to bring these southern green camps to the north.
Otherwise, it will be a huge instability factor.
You still have to pay for it.
It's better to fight it out in Nanchang Mansion.
to this end.
The next day, Qianlong began to have his green battalions raid and plunder all over Nanchang Prefecture.
Nanchang Prefecture and the surrounding Raozhou Prefecture, Nankang Prefecture, Jiujiang Prefecture, etc. were all plundered by the Qing army.
After plundering, they also captured a large number of civilians to dig trenches and captured women as military prostitutes.
For a time, the people in northern Jiangxi suffered a devastating disaster, with refugees everywhere and countless deaths and injuries.
After the endless coma, Shi Yu suddenly stood up from the bed. If you want to read the latest chapters, please download the Star Reading app and read the latest chapters for free without ads.

He took a big breath of fresh air, his chest trembling.
Confused, confused, and all kinds of emotions came to my mind.
Where is this?
Afterwards, Shi Yu subconsciously observed his surroundings, and then became even more confused.
A single dormitory?
Even if he was successfully rescued, he should be in the ward now.
And my body...how could I not have any injuries at all?
With doubts, Shi Yu's eyes quickly swept across the room, and finally his eyes rested on a mirror beside the bed.
The mirror showed his current appearance. He was about seventeen or eighteen years old, and he looked very handsome.
But the problem is, this is not him! Download the Star Reading app and read the latest chapters for free without ads.
My previous self was a handsome young man in his twenties who had been working for a while.
And now, no matter how you look, this appearance is that of a high school student...
This change made Shi Yu stunned for a long time.
Don't tell him that the operation was successful...
The body and appearance have changed. This is not a matter of surgery or not, but magic.
He turned into a completely different person!
Could it be...that he traveled through time?
In addition to the mirror placed by the bedside, which was obviously not feng shui-friendly, Shi Yu also found three books next to it.
Shi Yu picked it up and took a look. The title of the book instantly silenced him.
"Essential Animal Breeding Manual for Beginner Breeders"
"Postpartum Care of Pet Pets"
"Evaluation Guide for Interracial Beast-Eared Girls"
Shi Yu:? ? ?
The names of the first two books are pretty normal, but what happened to the last one?
"cough."
Shi Yu looked solemnly and stretched out his hand, but his arm soon stiffened.
Just when he was about to open the third book and see what it was about, his brain suddenly felt a sharp pain, and a large number of memories came flooding back.
Icefield City.
Pet animal breeding base.
Intern pet breeder. The website will be closed soon. Download the Star Reading app to provide you with Qianlong: Qing Dynasty by Mr. Mu Mu Mu Ah? Where is my Qing Dynasty?
