Chapter Ninety-Eight: Quantitative and Qualitative Change

Xia Wanchun felt that he was about to die......

With trembling hands, he grabbed the teapot from the low table and drank the somewhat cold tea in one gulp, only to feel that his body was slowly returning to normal.

Looking back at the three alien beauties lying in the brocade quilt, he thought about it, and left the room with his clothes on.

Throwing his body on the brocade couch in the study, he looked at the roof and said to himself, "It can't be so ridiculous." ”

"It can't go on like this."

Someone responded to Xia Wanchun in the corner.

Xia Wanchun was not surprised by this abrupt voice, and said to the black-clothed man standing in the corner: "How is the majesty of the master?" ”

The man in black said indifferently: "General! ”

Xia Wanchun smiled silently and said, "You didn't see me today." ”

The man in black said: "In this kind of thing, men can't take advantage of it at all, let alone three people, in addition, I have already reported your daytime prostitution." ”

Xia Wanchun said with a smile: "You should report it, so that those people in the court know how desperate I am in order to open up territory for the Ming Dynasty!" ”

Seeing that Xia Wanchun had a tendency to break the jar, the man in black smiled and said, "I know you don't like me staring at you, but if you don't like it, you have to endure it, Queen Qian's order, you can't disobey it."

Not to mention, there is also your father's and mother's opinion in it, and Your Majesty has acquiesced.

So, you can mess around as much as you want, but don't trap yourself in it. ”

Xia Wanchun gritted his teeth and said, "Aren't eunuchs like you all civilian?" ”

The man in black said: "As long as the royal family still exists, people like us have room to live." ”

"When Emperor Chongzhen committed suicide, you ran faster than anyone else."

"That emperor is dead, what does it have to do with us people from the Lantian Dynasty?"

"Huh? We also have eunuchs in Lantian? ”

"Of course, some people are not born to be men, and Your Majesty will give us those who are looked down upon a way to live."

"I'm not a prince, what are you sending eunuchs for me?"

"Who told you that eunuchs must be sent to the prince? We have officially entered the official sequence, and it is possible to send anywhere. ”

"You must be very rare, why do you have one next to me?"

"It's quite rare, but only people like us can endure loneliness and keep our mouths shut, so I'm here to be your secretary, and by the way, I'm also a graduate of Yushan Academy, but I didn't take classes with you."

Xia Wanchun sighed and closed his eyes to rest, saying that he was resting, but in fact, there were still many things entangled in his head, and now the battle in the Western Regions had entered a white-hot level.

Victory or defeat will be reflected in the next half of the time.

The advantage of the Lantian Dynasty here is not great, mainly because the army is too small, and 80,000 troops sounds like a lot, but in the entire Western Regions, it is like sprinkling a handful of salt in a lake.

If you want to concentrate superior forces, you can't do it at all, Xia Wanchun tried his best to gather his troops, and in the end, he could only muster up less than 30,000 troops.

He relied on these 30,000 people to force the 200,000 people in the Dzungar Department into a dead end.

However, he could only do this step, his goal of expelling the Dzungar tribe from the Western Regions was not achieved, no matter how serious the losses were, Batur Huntaiji of Dzungaria still refused to leave Dzungaria and enter the territory of the nearby large, medium and small Yuzi people.

The most important reason why the large, medium and small Yuzi people have been able to coexist peacefully with the powerful Dzungar tribe over the years is that the three Yuzi tribes of the large, medium and small have the support of the Rakshasa people behind them.

Batur Huntaiji fought against the Rakshasas twice and repelled the Rakshasas' intention to enter the Western Regions, and based on this, the Rakshasas had to admit the existence of the Dzungar Khanate.

However, the three tribes of large, medium and small Yuzi who originally lived in the territory of Rakshasa migrated to Balkten Lake to tie up the Dzungar Khanate.

And gave a new name to these three tribes - Kazakh.

If the Ming army had not entered the Western Regions, then the Dzungar Ministry would have been inseparable from this new Kazakh Department.

Since the Ming army led by Duan Guoren entered the Western Regions and occupied most of the Western Regions with the momentum of breaking bamboo, most of the energy of the Dzungar Department was focused on the Ming army. Therefore, there is room for the Kazakh tribe to survive.

After Xia Wanchun arrived in the Western Regions, he implemented a more radical policy, gradually reducing the living space of these aliens, and under the influence of this policy, the Dzungar tribe, which was originally an enemy, actually had a tendency to ally with the Kazakh tribe.

Once this alliance is formed, Xia Wanchun will have to face a combined Dzungari-Kazakh army of 500,000 men.

The Ming army has an absolute advantage in weaponry and military training, but the Dzungars, or Kazakhs, on the other side, are not all pure cold-weapon armies.

Although their muskets and artillery are not many, they are not none, and what makes Xia Wanchun the most headache is their huge cavalry team composed of 160,000 cavalry.

The advantage of the cavalry was magnified many times in the vast Great Gobi, and they relied on the advantage of being able to move quickly to destroy Xia Wanchun's supply lines everywhere, and raided Xia Wanchun's castle in the Western Regions, which once made Xia Wanchun disgraced.

Fortunately, the three Kazakh tribes are a greedy tribe, and after Xia Wanchun agreed to open the border trade between the Kazakh tribe and the Ming Dynasty, Xia Wanchun's pressure was reduced a lot in an instant.

However, the Kazakhs are not stupid, they still know the truth of the cold lips and teeth, they can accept the current balance situation, but they do not allow Xia Wanchun to strangle the Dzungar department with all his might.

As a result, this strange peaceful situation has befallen the land of the Western Regions, where there are constant wars.

In desperation, in order to further paralyze the Kazakh tribe, Xia Wanchun proposed to marry the princess of the three Kazakh tribes, and was willing to offer a rich gift for this.

Then, he really got three Kazakh princesses, but after these three princesses married, they did not alleviate the current situation.

Xia Wanchun's real purpose in marrying a princess is not in the Kazakhs, if he can achieve the goal of confusing the Kazakhs, it doesn't matter if he can't, after all, he married three princesses, which will make the Dzungar Ministry dissatisfied with the Kazakhs.

As long as there was a rift between the Dzungars and the Kazakhs, two races that did not trust each other very much, he could make this small rift a huge chasm.

For now, all that's left to do is wait.

Sometimes time brews the most delicious wine in the world, and sometimes it brews the most bitter poison.

Therefore, Xia Wanchun doted on these three Kazakh princesses in every way......

In winter, the land of the Western Regions is frozen by the cold, and Ili is more like a white world.

Xia Wanchun's room was as warm as spring, he was wearing only a thin spring shirt, lazily lying on the fur-covered bed, gently beating a gem-encrusted tambourine, and three beautiful alien women dressed in silk were dancing happily.

After a fierce dance, Xia Wanchun laughed and threw away the tambourine in his hand, and three beautiful interracial women fell like kittens into the soft fur that could drown people, and opened their mouths to welcome the red wine syrup poured out by Xia Wanchun.

Just when the clothes on the four of them were getting less and less, Cui Liang, the man in black, pushed open the door and walked in, waved his hand to rebuke those musicians, and calmly looked at Xia Wanchun, who was still burying his head in the arms of the beauty, and said, "General Chen is back." ”

Xia Wanchun raised his head and squinted his eyes at Cui Liang, and put a hand on the slender neck of a princess and rubbed it back and forth.

"Did he get what I wanted?"

Cui Liang walked out of the room, and after a while, he carried a human head on the table full of various delicacies and bowed down and said, "Hassan's head has been confirmed." ”

Xia Wanchun lowered his head and looked at a charming princess and smiled in their language: "Your uncle is dead." ”

The princess didn't seem to care about this, nor was she afraid of the hideous human head, but leaned into Xia Wanchun's arms, and after a phone call, she laughed insolently.

Cui Liang also smiled and lifted the human head and left the house, closing the door again.

Chen Zhong smelled the aroma of fat powder and saw the absurd scene in the room, and it wasn't until Cui Liang closed the door that a hideous smile appeared on his cracked face.

Cui Liang returned the head to Chen Chong and said, "The general worked hard. ”

Chen Zhong said with a smile: "The plan is going on as scheduled, the people of Batur Huntaiji snatched the grain belonging to the Kazakhs, and killed the people of the Dayuzi tribe, and our people are the closest to the scene is also eight hundred miles away. ”

Cui Liang invited Chen Chong into his room to warm up, Chen Chong put his head on the table, poured a cup of hot tea and drank it all, rubbed his hands and said: "It is said that quantitative change leads to qualitative change, what does this sentence mean?" ”

Cui Liang said: "That is to say, one small bad thing after another, if you do too much, it will eventually become a big evil." ”

Chen Zhong said with a smile: "We have done bad things for half a winter, can we successfully make the Dzungar Ministry and the Kazakh Third Department quarrel?" ”

Cui Liang threw a hard piece of poplar wood into the stove and said, "It will succeed in the end." ”

"When?"

"God knows when."

"Does Governor Xia have a plan in mind?"

"There should be a number, didn't you see that he has succeeded in making those three Kazakh princesses his own?"

Chen Chong shook his head and said, "I'm afraid Governor Xia is not a good person. ”

Cui Liang shook his head and said, "As long as the three Kazakh divisions are not destroyed, Mr. Governor will be a good person after all." ”

"I believe that."

Chen Zhong said, took another sip of hot tea, and then pushed the door open with Hassan's head and broke into the wind and snow.

Cui Liang sent it to the door, and heard the sound of violent music coming from Xia Wanchun's room again, the music of the Kazakhs is always so warm and unrestrained, and the music is always so deafening.

Cui Liang sighed and said, "Don't be fascinated by yourself." ”
