Chapter 253 No, I guessed wrong
"Great Khan, give the order!"
Following Galdan Tsering, the Great Tsering Dundub also bowed and saluted: "I am willing to lead the troops to attack the Khalkha tribe and take back the three Khalkha tribes that were handed over by Galdan!"
Recover lost territory, who can resist this?
Little Celingdundub also quickly clasped his fists, expressing his willingness to do his part.
Filial sons and loyal ministers vied with each other to ask for his life, all wanting to avenge his previous humiliation. Tsewang Arabtan was extremely happy and personally helped people up one by one.
"I know all your intentions. I also want to attack Russia in the north and the Qing Dynasty in the east to restore the former glory of the Mongol Empire. But..."
No matter how unwilling he was, he had to admit it.
Although the Dzungar Khanate was also vast, its territory was mostly deserts and wastelands, making it not very suitable for living.
In terms of population and economy, they were far behind the Qing Dynasty.
That is, he actively developed commerce, vigorously introduced foreign firearms, and used the Swedes to teach him the use of cavalry firearms, etc. He developed an elite division combining cavalry and firearms, and was able to fight against the Qing court and Tsarist Russia with tens of thousands of people at the same time.
Knowing that the enemy outnumbers us, we must be extra cautious.
Strive to achieve the greatest results at the lowest cost.
For this reason, he endured it several times, but was scolded by that damn Eighth Prince. Not only did he have to swallow the insult, he also had to write a letter to explain and even reflect on himself.
Even more Han Xin than Han Xin!
Fortunately, all the efforts have paid off now. We have finally succeeded in paralyzing the Qing court, causing it to relax its vigilance, and all its energy has returned to the struggle for power.
The opportunity for Junggar has finally come!
Tsewang Arabtan's lips curved slightly: "Since the Qing court has been slandering and provoking us in every possible way, let's fight! I have explained it so many times, it is time for me to question them."
Should should should!
This time, they not only wanted to take back the three long-lost Khalkha tribes, but also asked the Qing court for a large amount of interest.
Both the elder and younger Celing Dundub responded in unison, and Galdan Celing personally served his father with writing materials.
Unlike Tsewang Arabtan who was overly cautious, these three were confident in their own firepower.
So what if there are more people in the Qing court?
The flintlock rifle is a crushing opponent of the matchlock rifle and bow and arrow. No matter how many cavalrymen there are, how many cannons can withstand them?
Daze Lingdun Duobu curled his lips, his smile cruel and bloodthirsty: "Come on, let the Qing court see how powerful the Bao Qin newly trained by the eldest prince is! I guarantee that they will be beaten to the ground and run away, thinking that they have offended the gods!"
Galdan Tsering smiled and shook his head: "No, no, no, that is my secret weapon, reserved for the destined one."
"Doesn't that old dog Xuanye like to lead the army in person?"
"I will use the special artillery team that I have trained with great effort to entertain him. If the Eternal Heaven blesses me, I will accomplish what even the Han general Yuan Chonghuan could not do, and send the old dog Xuanye back to the arms of the Eternal Heaven with one shot!"
Hahahaha.
Tsewang Arabtan was overjoyed, and soon the whole tent was filled with a happy atmosphere.
When the news reached the capital, Kangxi was so angry that he wanted to lead the army himself.
Give the Zhun army a chance to see how powerful the so-called Bao Qin is and whether he can be killed with one shot.
The princes were so frightened that they trembled with fear and started to persuade him immediately.
A gentleman would not stand under a dangerous wall, let alone you, the emperor?
Your life affects the entire Qing Dynasty and the stability of the country, so you must not act rashly.
[That's right. The lesson of the expedition against Galdan is not far away. Have you forgotten it so quickly?] Yinzhen curled his lips quietly, disgusted: [If you don't have the outstanding military talent like Li Shimin and Zhu Di, you should stay at home and stop leading the army in person. What if you suddenly become Zhao Er, or even Zhu Qizhen?]
Kangxi gritted his teeth and wanted to grab the little bastard and shake him hard, and solemnly declared: It’s not that I don’t have military talent, I just got sick during the journey and had to return to the capital.
It’s not Zhao Guangyi, nor is it Zhu Qizhen!
But before he could take action, the prince hugged his legs and begged him: "Khan Amawud has plenty of virtue. If he leads the army in person, he will certainly be able to defeat Tsewang Arabtan. But why use a butcher knife to kill a chicken?"
Yeah.
The eldest prince, who had always been at odds with the crown prince, nodded repeatedly: "The crown prince is right, we have our sons here, and Tsewang Arabtan is not worthy of your respect, Khan Ama."
It was the same advice, but the Tenth Prince’s was much simpler and more straightforward.
I beg the old man to stop and be quiet. Otherwise, what if he gets sick on the way to the Western Regions with his old arms and legs?
Kangxi was so angry that he kicked him on the butt: "What nonsense are you talking about, you bastard?"
[Hey! How can this be nonsense? It is clearly a sincere statement! I dare say that all the princes who have no special thoughts about the throne are praying devoutly, hoping that their father can live longer than a hundred years.]
Uh-huh-huh.
After the Ninth Prince, the Tenth Prince also wanted to make Yinzhen his confidant.
But before he could express his piety, the Ninth Prince came to his rescue: "Khan Ama, although what the Tenth Brother said is not quite appropriate, his filial piety is unquestionable."
"My brothers are both skilled in both civil and military affairs, and there are also experienced generals in the court. There is no shortage of talents. Why would an old man like you, who is nearly sixty years old, need to go to the front line?"
That's it.
Yinxuan nodded in agreement, silently regretting in his heart: "What a pity, it's only the 48th year of Kangxi. Zhaohui, who killed Junggar and left only a place name, was born only last year. Now he is really just a child. 】
[Fukangan, who crossed the Himalayas and created a miracle in the history of war, had to wait several years for his father to be born, let alone himself.]
what's that?
Kill the Junggar tribe until only a place name remains?!
Kangxi and the other princes were all stunned. Besides being shocked by the general's might, they also sincerely wanted to know how he did it.
For this reason, Kangxi, who had just clamored to lead the army in person, was "persuaded" by the princes.
He then ordered someone to take out the map, and the father and son discussed with each other where the troops might attack, so as to be able to anticipate the enemy and prevent danger before it happens.
It was just like when Yinzhen brought him food and dishes, served him tea and water, and massaged his back for a long time, and then asked him to reward him. He and the prince took a step back and reconciled as smoothly and naturally, on the grounds that father and son could not hold grudges overnight.
This has caused Yinxuan to be troubled to this day.
He was glad that he could do something for his second brother, the Crown Prince, but he was also afraid that because of Kang Tai's deep love for Prince Yong, he would never have the chance to become Emperor Yongzheng.
It's quite a betrayal to my son.
But he himself was not aware of it at all and was quite pleased with himself.
Even at this moment, when he pointed to the area where the Khalkha Mongols were located and said that it must be the place that the bandits would attack first, his ears still pricked up.
Afraid of missing even a punctuation mark.
How could Yinxuan know their sinister intentions?
He stared at the map with bright eyes, recalling the contents of the Qing-Zungarian War. After hearing this, he exclaimed: "No, Kangxi father guessed wrong!"
