Chapter 145: The Undercurrent of the Western Regions

After Zhu Qizhen waited for Shi Biao to arrive, he handed over a series of information to Shi Biao first. After Shi Biao saw it, he said: "The situation in the Western Regions is as dangerous as an egg, and I need a general to sit in Ili, even if the news from the Central Plains and the Western Regions is cut off within a year or two, I must stick to Ili." No matter who the enemy is? Ili must be in the hands of the Ming Dynasty. ”

"How dare you do it?"

Shi Biao listened to Zhu Qizhen's words, and knew very well in his heart that at this time, it was impossible for him to say a "no".

The emperor has said everything to this point, if Shi Biao dares to refuse, maybe he will not deal with him now, but the future of his life will end here.

In addition, he also understands that the Shi family is where it is today, not because of Shi Biao. It's because of Shi Heng.

And Shi Heng's biggest political legacy is not in Jingshi, but in the Western Regions, it is the tens of thousands of troops in Ili, all of which are Shi Heng's old departments, once the Western Regions are lost, the situation of the Shi family will not be maintained.

Maybe a few years later, the situation of Teng Guogong's Meng family will be the situation of the Shi family.

There are already nearly ten people in the Ming Kingdom, but there are only a few who really control the power, and the rest is just a tablet.

The Shi family doesn't want to be such a family, and this army of tens of thousands must not be lost.

No matter how difficult it was, Shi Biao could only take a hard trip and said: "Your Majesty has a life, and the minister will not give up." ”

"Okay." Zhu Qizhen took a few steps forward, pressed a hand on Shi Biao's shoulder, and said, "I know that you will not let me down." ”

Immediately, Zhu Qizhen waved his hand and asked Huai En to drag a mahogany tray with a long sword on it. Zhu Qizhen took it, handed it to Shi Biao with both hands, and said: "This sword is my order, and the Western Regions will listen to the Qing's moderation, but you can cut it first and then play it, and the major affairs of the Western Regions will be entrusted to the Qing." I am waiting to hear your good news. ”

Shi Biao took it with both hands, took a few steps back, and put down the sword. He knelt down and saluted and said, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the minister is in the Western Regions." ”

Now Beijing's news about the Western Regions was more than ten days ago, and it was chaotic, even if Shi Biao had all kinds of skills, and now he can only talk about this person.

The implication is that although success is uncertain, there is determination to become benevolent.

Almost immediately, Shi Biao ordered more than 100 personal soldiers, one of whom numbered his horses, and marched out of Beijing, crossed the grassland, ventured through the area of Manjun's rebellion, and rushed straight to Yizhou.

Shi Biao is going, how dangerous it is, let's not mention it for the time being.

It's just that the situation in the Western Regions, after Shi Heng's death, deteriorated rapidly.

Zhu Qizhen deduced that this incident was premeditated, and even suspected that Mao Lizi was secretly planning it. It's a little too conspiracy.

This can also be regarded as an occupational disease obtained by him as an emperor.

It's just that above the world, many things, from the perspective of conspiracy theories, are so coincidental, but they are not.

Shi Heng's death was an accident

Event.

To tell the truth, before Shi Heng died, who would have thought that Shi Heng would be able to drink wine, eat meat, open a hard bow, ride a fast horse, and even cross the three armies, even if there are young people, it is difficult to parry Shi Heng's three moves and two styles.

Who would have thought that Seok Hyung would die?

Shi Heng's death was sudden in every way. And Man Jun's rebellion has also been planned for a long time.

It is even related to the great drought in the northwest.

When Juyan was in the Han Dynasty, it was still a place with abundant water and grass, but in the Ming Dynasty, many places have been eaten by yellow sand.

In addition, a major drought has spread to the grasslands.

It was even more unbearable for the Mongol tribes who migrated from the northwest.

They were not adapted to life on the grassland, but now they are even more unbearable when they encounter such a severe drought. It is this dissatisfaction that Manjun exploits.

Of course, if Shi Heng was here, Man Jun might not dare to make such a big fuss, but he always had to make a fuss, and if he thought about it, the crying child would have milk to eat.

It's just that as soon as Shi Heng died, Man Jun became even more unscrupulous when he was in trouble.

And Manjun's troubles are the fuse of rebellions in other places.

First of all, let's talk about the return of the Western Regions.

The Western Regions of this era were not entirely Muslim. To the north of the Tien Shan, most of the Mongols, to be precise, were the world of the Wathorns, who believed in shamans.

And in southern Xinjiang.

After several Great Khans of the Chagatai Khanate forced the implementation of Islam, Islam flourished, but still did not complete the unification of southern Xinjiang, there is a place here, that is, Hami, and now it was renamed Yizhou by the Ming Dynasty.

It is the only city where Buddhism is practiced.

Even before the rise of the Tile Thorn, the Chagatai Khanate attacked Hami several times. There is also Islam called jihad.

In other words, the trend of Islam moving eastward has not changed.

However, this situation changed when the Chagatai Khanate was broken by the tile. But the change is not much, because the management of the tile spur is not so delicate, and it is very indulgent in religion.

Even among the Waspur tribes, there are Muslims.

Therefore, the contradiction between Islam and Buddhism has not been dealt with much.

But what really changed all that was the entry of the Ming Dynasty into the Western Regions.

The tens of thousands of troops who followed the Ming into the Western Regions, as well as many immigrants, both Han Chinese and Mongols.

Zhu Qizhen's development of the Western Regions was definitely to treat the Western Regions as the native of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, Zhu Qizhen deliberately selected some Han people or Buddhists for the various departments that moved westward.

In order to check and balance the indigenous Tusi of southern Xinjiang, the guards and the Tusi of southern Xinjiang are uneven, and they are arranged to check and balance each other. So Buddhism followed these people back to the area west of Hami.

At the beginning, these southern Xinjiang Tusi were still afraid of Daming and didn't dare to do anything, but after a long time, the contradictions between the two sides were frictional

One day is more than one day.

Baekyu spent a lot of energy dealing with this matter.

No one can be merciful. After all, Zhu Qizhen's policy change to the Western Regions, many people can figure it out, Bai Gui is generally a combination of grace and power. In order to convince people with reason.

It's just that he doesn't understand what kind of Muslim people are.

For these people, there is a little bit of weakness. It will be seen as weakness and retreat.

Although it was hindered by the garrison of the Ming Dynasty in the Western Regions, all kinds of Muslim tandems had begun.

It can even be said that without Shi Heng's death, without the Manjun Rebellion, a big rebellion in Huihui is also certain, it is nothing more than a matter of time.

Among them, the Fire Family has been preparing for a long time for I don't know how long.

This family of the Fire Lords, said to be a family of saints in Islam, served in the Chagatai Khanate, and later the Chagatai Khanate was defeated by the Watts.

The Fire Warrior family did not retreat west with the Chagatai Khanate, but remained in southern Xinjiang. It is a part of the local Tusi of Qiuzi, and it can be described as highly respected in the return of southern Xinjiang.

It is said that during one of his lectures, the Fire One burst into tears and said, "This is the last time to preach, because Allah's punishment is coming, and if you believe in Him, follow Him."

At that time, some people followed him, and some people did not follow him. But after he left, only half a day or so, a sandstorm flooded the city.

So everyone thought he was holy.

After the southern Xinjiang was launched in one fell swoop, the Maori children were a little hesitant.

In fact, among the various departments, Mao Li's child has the greatest ambition, and he has always had the idea of restoring the glory of the family in his heart.

But he understands the strength of the Ming Dynasty best.

Whether it is the Fire Family in Southern Xinjiang or Manjun, they have never been to Beijing, and the strength of the Ming Dynasty is hearsay, and all they can feel is the military presence of the Ming Dynasty in the Western Regions.

But the Mauri knew it.

It was because he knew that he didn't want to act rashly.

So, on the one hand, he felt that it was an opportunity. A chance to have all the Western Regions. On the other hand, he knew that Da Ming would never let the chaos in the Western Regions be like this. He was worried that if he made a move now, he would be regarded as the main target of Daming.

Then there are the various relationships between Mao Lizi and Daming, you must know that there is also a child in the Ming army who works for the Jin family, he not only has a good relationship with Concubine Zhuang, but even married his daughter to King Yi.

Speaking of which, he is also a relative of the emperor.

Of course, the Mongols would not give up the war just because they had married a daughter. It's just that this relationship will always affect his judgment.

So, although Maori is recruiting soldiers, what are you going to do? He still hadn't made up his mind.

He didn't know that his vacillating and overthinking temperament killed him.
