On the grassland at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, piles of bonfires rise, like stars in the sky falling into the grassland. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoIn front of each bonfire, beautiful Turkic women and stout Mongolian women jumped and jumped around the bonfire, Han, Mongolian and Turkic soldiers sat around the bonfire, and many bold women offered white hata to the man they liked.

On the bonfire, there are fat whole sheep roasted, which is a delicacy used by Mongolians to entertain guests. The spices that Li Laiheng brought to the Mongols made the roasted whole sheep even more delicious.

The sheep produced at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains has a small flavor and tender meat. The whole sheep roasted to the pan gave off an attractive aroma, and the Mongolians smeared the soy sauce that Li Laiheng and others brought them, which they were reluctant to use, sprinkled with refined salt, and then evenly sprinkled with pepper and chili powder, and finally sprinkled with local cumin, and the person in charge of roasting the sheep turned the wooden stick. After a while, when the whole sheep was roasted, Galdan handed the knife to Shang Zhixin and asked him to cut the first one first.

Shang Zhixin symbolically cut a knife, and then someone came up, put the roasted whole sheep on a large wooden board, cut it piece by piece with a knife, put it on a plate, and then served it.

As the most respected guest, Shang Zhixin was given a large piece of lamb with skin and roasted to a crispy crisp. The brown and crispy skin is mouth-watering at first glance, and when you tear open the crispy skin, you will find tender and juicy lamb inside, and the heat contained in it is emitted, and the air is filled with the smell of meat. Shang Zhixin took a bite, and his mouth was full of oil. But he only had time to take a bite when the enthusiastic Mongols came up with a large bowl of wine.

I don't know how much wine I drank, but Shang Zhixin finally lost his strength and fell headlong.

"Lord Qiqi! Urgent news from the Kokand Khanate! Just as the Mongols warmly greeted their guests and sang and danced on the steppe under the Tianshan Mountains, a messenger hurriedly ran in and knelt in front of Galdan, "Two neighbors of the Kokand Khanate have been attacked by the Mughal Empire!" The Khanate of Bukhara and the Khiva Khanate were defeated! ”

Galdan motioned for the messenger to stand back, then turned to Li Laiheng and said, "It seems that we still have to save them first." By the way, your destination is not the Mughal Empire? Now that the Mughal Empire is in full swing, can you defeat them with these few men and horses in your hands? ”

Sitting on the side, the fifth Dalai said: "Tianzhu, which was once the birthplace of Buddhism, is now the coexistence of Hinduism and Tianfangism, and the Mughal Empire ruled Hinduism with Tianfangism. Their emperor tried to merge Hinduism and Hinduism into one, but it was impossible for the two very different religions to merge, and the two religions were in constant conflict, with the Hindus and Sikhs constantly rebelling against the Celestials. The current emperor, Aurangzeb, has reinstated the poll tax that had been abolished and doubled the tax on those who did not believe in the Heavenly Religion, which has exacerbated the contradictions. ”

Li Laiheng nodded and said: "This country seems to be powerful, but in fact, there are constant civil strife, and the hierarchical caste system of Hindus is completely contrary to the equality mentioned by the Heavenly Sect. And in the seaside area of this country, the people of the Taixi countries have landed and occupied a lot of seaside territory. ”

"I don't know if the army of the mighty Mughal Empire can beat the Tessi army? As far as I know, the Rakshasas are already the worst among the Taixi countries, but after the Rakshasas came to the countries of the Western Regions, no one has been able to beat them. Galdan asked.

Li Guangdi replied: "The Taixi army is strong in combat, but there are few people. Take the English army, for example, they had defeated the Dutch not long ago, and they had not recovered themselves, so how could they care about the expansion of the East India Company? ”

"We need time to wait, and when the Nanyang Company defeats the Great Franc Man, it will extend its tentacles into the Indian Ocean, and at that time, it will join forces with the English and the French to deal with the Mughal Empire." Li Laiheng said.

The dismemberment of the South Asian subcontinent is Wang Yu's strategic plan. In real history, because of the weakening of the Mughal Empire, the British fought with the Indians, including the famous Battle of Plassey, 1,000 British soldiers and 2,000 Indian soldiers, carrying nine cannons, and the Bengali army supported by the French, with 50,000 Indian troops, 20,000 troops including the French army, and 53 French cannons, and the British won the victory and controlled the South Asian subcontinent.

After the victory of the British, they forcibly merged the people of the South Asian subcontinent of different races to establish India. Later, after India's independence, India and Pakistan were partitioned.

Now that the Mughal dynasty is in full swing and powerful, the British did not dare to conquer Aurangzeb, and if he wanted to control India, he could only join forces with the Ming army to dismember the South Asian subcontinent and divide the cake. As for whether a war will break out between the British and the Ming army after the destruction of the Mughal Empire, that is a matter for later.

According to Wang Yu's assumption, there will be a war with the British in the end.

……

In Nanjing, an envoy sent by Wang Yu to negotiate with the East India Company had returned, bringing back the news that the British had agreed to join forces with the Ming to dismember the Mughal Empire, and of course, to take full control of the subcontinent, it would be necessary to defeat the French and Spaniards.

The speed of communication was extremely slow, and Wang Yu agreed to the British's offer to defeat the French and Spaniards, but it would take several months for this reply to reach the British. It doesn't matter anyway, the plan to attack Manila will take at least a year to be implemented.

Just when Wang Yu was talking to the envoy, someone from the north came in a hurry for 800 miles to report: "Wu Sangui has gone west in Hexi!" ”

"Wu Sangui is finally dead!" After Wang Yu heard the news, his mood was very complicated, on the one hand, the news of Wu Sangui's death was good news for him, he could take advantage of the contradiction between Wu Sangui's son and grandson, and the Northern Expedition at the lowest cost, and finally achieve the plan of abolishing Yongli and replacing it with King Lu. But on the other hand, Wang Yu still has a little affection for Wu Sangui, and Wu Sangui has helped a lot in the great cause of opposing the Qing Dynasty.

"Wu Sangui died, and sent someone to the north to see him off for the last time. We also took advantage of this opportunity to make goodwill concessions to the north by retreating into advance, so that they could intensify the contradictions themselves. Wang Yuyou said.

As soon as Wu Sangui died, there was a conflict between Wu Yingqi and Wu Shifan. Supporting Wu Yingqi were Liu Xuanchu, Wang Shirong, two strategists, as well as Gao Dejie, Xia Guoxiang, Ma Bao and other generals. The strategists who supported Wu Shifan were Fang Guangchen, and the generals were Wu Guogui, Guo Zhuangtu and others.

In the six months that Wu Sangui was seriously ill, Wu Yingqi had been secretly courting people. After all, many people in the Wu army had opinions about the fact that Wu Sangui did not pass the throne to his son, but directly to his grandson.
