Since Li Xiao became emperor, he first rewarded his subordinates for their meritorious soldiers, and each gave them official titles, and all the soldiers also had rewards. As a result, the ministers were very happy and the soldiers were all happy.

However, Li Xiao did not do such a suitable move as a general amnesty like the previous founding emperor, but instead punished and punished these prisoners in accordance with previous regulations.

Li Xiao from the modern era, of course, knew that the law has an irreplaceable importance to the country. These prisoners should receive corresponding punishment for the crimes they committed and must not be reduced or exempted due to the change of dynasties.

Unswerving punishment for evil people is the most effective protection for the people.

Li Xiao even believed that in the future, the right opportunity should be given to the legal status, so that it should be equally valued with the monarchy and implemented long-term and stable control over the country, which should ensure long-term stability and allow the Tang Empire to enter modern countries faster and earlier than the Taixi countries.

And in the long run, if we can take this step well, it will be the most beneficial and lasting blessing for the country and the nation.

As for the former Emperor Anping who went to Tasconia Island, Zhu Cixuan, the current Marquis of Religion, Li Xiao had sent a special person to escort the Tang army navy throughout the journey and headed to his enfeoffment place.

Zhu Cixi and his group, accompanied by more than ten eunuchs and palace maids, boarded an Eagle-Strike-class warship. Accompanied by a large number of Tang army naval forces, set off from Tianjin Port, and headed south all the way to Australia.

This young man, who was only twelve years old and quiet, had a calm expression and respectful speech along the way, which made the navy soldiers on the ship very fond of him.

For Zhu Cixiao, going to such an overseas island that was first involved in the Chineseization, staying away from the government and disputes, and living quietly in peace with the world, thus preserving the Ming Dynasty’s national name, preserving his life and future, and preserving Chongzhen’s bloodline and sacrifices may be the best ending.

Li Xiao also planned to betroth his youngest daughter Li Qiong when Zhu Cixiao was older and at the age of marriage, he would betroth him to show his grace and favor.

I just don’t know if the reason why he did this was because of the conscience and guilt.

The navy ships walked on the sea for about two months and finally arrived on Tasmania successfully. They came to this small fiefdom designated by Li Xiao for Zhu Cixu and could inherit the Ming Dynasty's name.

What Zhu Cixu didn't expect was that on this island, the Hongguang pseudo-government Zhu Yousong was also among them to welcome him.

It turned out that Zhu Yousong was crippled by the soldiers under Zheng Zhilong, and even half of his body was paralyzed, but he was forcibly transported from Fuzhou to Penghu, and he had been recuperating in Penghu.

Because he was carrying the title of the former Ming pseudo-supervisor, Zhu Yousong was always frightened, fearing that Li Xiao would be unhappy when he would be so angry, so he found him for a crime and beheaded him.

Fortunately, Li Xiao was broad-minded. After hearing about his miserable situation like a broken-backed dog, he was quite sympathetic to him, so he let him go, but he was confiscated his title and wealth and did not impose further punishment on him.

Although Zhu Yousong lost his official title and family wealth, it was a great blessing to save his life. However, although he is still in Penghu, he is already shy and embarrassed to see his old friends.

Later, when he heard that Li Xiao ascended the throne, changed the dynasty to Tang, and sent Zhu Cixiao to Tasmania to continue the Ming Dynasty's fiefdom, he became interested and wrote a letter to the court to send him to this island to stay away from disputes and live a life of life.

Li Xiao thought about Zhu Yousong's request for a long time and finally agreed.

After all, Zhu Yousong, the former Ming pseudo-Hongguang regent, had a bad reputation and no political resources available. It would be much better to allow such a half-paralyzed disabled person to live in the distant and quiet island of Tasmania than to allow him to stay in a naval base such as Penghu where the Tang army was building on a large scale.

However, Li Xiao asked that Zhu Yousong had to take a few servants with him and could not take anyone there anymore. Zhu Yousong agreed to this request.

After all, now he has no political ambitions and just wants to go to a remote and remote place and spend the rest of his life in peace.

On the coast of Tasmania, Zhu Yousong, who was paralyzed and half-body sitting on a wooden bed, saw Zhu Cixue, who looked haggard but finally arrived safely.

When the two of them talked about their relationship, they were considered uncles and nephews, but at this moment, they met each other with mixed feelings, but they didn't say a word.

Yes, what else can I say?

Zhu Yousong came here to live this life, and Zhu Cixiao lived quietly here. What's the difference except that one might die earlier and the other would die later?

Soon, a civil servant sent by Li Xiao in advance came over on the island. He first sent Zhu Yousong home, and then welcomed Zhu Cixiao to the small palace built for him on the island.

From the coast to the palace, there is a winding and narrow concrete road. Zhu Ciqiu walked slowly with everyone and finally disappeared at the end of the road.

Half a year after Li Xiao became emperor, the world was settled and orderly, and all the remaining soldiers and bandits in various places were wiped out and killed. All the people across the country finally lived and lived a peaceful life again.

It is better to be a peaceful dog than a person in troubled times. Only those who have truly experienced the hardships of war can finally understand and truly feel it personally.

Seeing that the country was settled and the time had come, Li Xiao issued another decree, ordering officials from all over the country to vigorously investigate and confiscate the excess land of the royal relatives of the former Ming Dynasty and the vassal princes and clans of various places, so that they no longer enjoy the benefits and privileges that surpass ordinary people.

This work was originally going to start immediately after ascending the throne, but Li Xiao tolerated them for half a year in order to be safe, and decided to take action against them when the situation in the middle school middle school was as stable as a rock.

As Li Xiao expected, the former Ming royal family and noble relatives who remained calm during the dynasty and dynasty had finally begun to attack him. When they saw Li Xiao finally started to attack him, they were all furious and raised troops to resist.

Such a small-scale riot without the support of the people and comprehensive plans, it was quickly suppressed by the Tang army and then wiped out.

Li Xiao was not polite to them and immediately ordered that all his titles and titles be seized, all his land, property, family and houses were confiscated, the first criminal was beheaded, and the accomplice was exiled to Siberia, and he would never return to his hometown in China.

As a result, more than a thousand Ming Dynasty relatives and powerful vassal kings were beheaded and executed by Li Xiao. For a moment, the country was terrified.

The rest of the Zhu royal family members who participated in the rebellion were all submissive to Siberia, while all the confiscated property was put into the national treasury, and all the land was given to the landless people.

Li Xiao's actions were really a way to leverage the strength and eliminated a huge hidden danger.

After all, these wealthy, powerful and land-based princes of the Ming Dynasty were absolutely dissatisfied with themselves. Instead of waiting for them to accumulate strength before rebelling, it would be more appropriate to take advantage of the current situation to steadily eliminate them in one fell swoop.

So, these former Ming royal family vassal kings, high officials and noble relatives were swept by Li Xiao like cleaning up garbage, and they all went to a bitter and cold place like Siberia to settle down.

In fact, Li Xiao's actions were quite kind and generous. After all, for them, although they were going to settle down in the bitter and cold places, they could survive. If they fell into the hands of the Qing Dynasty as they did in real history, they would be dead.

The very few Ming clans who honestly gave their extra land were treated preferentially by Li Xiao, and they allowed them to maintain their titles and titles and continue to live.

Of course, their titles and honors were all entitled and reduced from generation to generation, and finally there was no such thing. Li Xiao, by the way Emperor Wu of Han, gave these former Ming clan relatives and nobles to the end, silently became silently lost to everyone, and no longer had any responsibility or achievements.

Since the huge hidden danger of the Ming Dynasty's vassal state has been completely pacified and eliminated, Li Xiao ordered the two troops to be divided into two places, Yulin and Xuanfu North Road, and led his troops northward to unify the Mongolian tribes.

The elite soldiers of the Tang army advanced rapidly, but the Mongolian tribes that had lost the Qing court's reliance on them had long become frightened birds and immediately surrendered to surrender.

Only several tribes in the outer Khalkha Mongol did not accept the king's transformation and decided to fight against the heavenly soldiers. The Tang army immediately launched a fierce attack and wiped out all their troops. The entire tribe slaughtered men and women, and there was no more of them.

With the heart of the Bodhisattva and the method of thunder, on this Mongolian Plateau, which only recognizes strength, Li Xiao used blood and fire to implement a very effective conquest and rule over the Mongolian tribes with both hardness and softness.

Four months later, all Mongolian tribes were pacified, and all divisions, no matter their size, were sent to manage Han officials, and a corresponding number of Tang army troops were arranged to garrison them to ensure long-term stability in the area.

The tribes, their original clan leader, Nuoyan, Jinnong and other positions have all become empty positions. Although their reputations are still respected and they can also receive salary from the Tang court, they have no real power. All the affairs of the tribe are decided by the Han officials in the garrison.

The original troops of various Mongolian troops were also under the jurisdiction of the Tang army and were usually used as auxiliary soldiers. If there was any urgent matter, they would be conquered with the Tang army and obey the national dispatch.

After the Mongolian tribes were pacified, Li Xiao immediately sent a large number of school officials to the local area to implement cultural and educational measures mainly Chinese and supplemented by Mongolian language. At the same time, he dispatched and recruited a large number of craftsmen to build standard roads from the capital city and Shaanxi, Shanxi, Xuanfu and other places to Mongolia, truly realizing the unified road of writing and chariots and tracks.

Peace is easy to pass, and time will soon arrive in the summer of the second year of Zhenxing.

While the Tang Dynasty was thriving, the people lived and worked in peace, and various initial industries were booming, major news came from the northwest border of the Tang Dynasty.

It turned out that after Li Zicheng took several cities in the eastern part of the Yarkand Khanate as the basis for establishing a country, he became arrogant and made an appointment with the Junggar Khanate in the north, hoping to attack Kashgar together, intending to destroy the entire Yerkand kingdom in one fell swoop, and then divide the country equally with the Junggar Khanate.

Li Zicheng believed that after years of war, the Yarkand Khanate had suffered heavy losses, the country was exhausted, and the contradictions were even more acute. Now, we can make a contribution to the battle and work with the Junggar Khanate to completely destroy this country entrenched in the Western Regions.

Thinking of this, strategists such as Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance in the country naturally opposed it with all their might.

They advised that after several years of hard fighting and with the strong assistance of the Tang army, Dashun occupied several cities east of the Yarkand Khanate. It is appropriate to recruit refugees and rest. After the country is strong, it is not too late to use troops to the Yarkand Khanate.

Although Niu Jinxing, Song Xiance and others tried so hard, Li Zicheng, who was already blinded by his achievements, could not continue to listen.

What's more, now he is eager to expand his ruling scope so as to get rid of the shackles of the Tang army and then advance to the Central Plains again to repay the great humiliation of being driven out of the Central Plains by the Tang army.

Because he had such thoughts, he was even more eager to destroy the Yarkand Khanate to expand his strength. In the end, in a rage, Li Zicheng recklessly led a hundred thousand troops to lead the troops to advance, and directly attack Kashgar.

However, although he had a thorough plan, he never expected that due to the sudden plague in the middle of the country, the troops were not dispatched in time, so the Yarkand Khanate was able to mobilize troops and ambush Li Zicheng's army on the way.

Moreover, over the past period of time, due to the heavy external troubles, the conflicts between the Yarkand Khanate, the conflicts between the sects and the throne of the country, which were originally highly regarded by domestic spies, have all been eased. This allowed King Abudula to mobilize 200,000 elite troops from the country to use them all to deal with external aggression.

Such changes in situations were actually persuaded by Niu Jinxing and others that day, but Li Zicheng, who was immersed in the fantasy of victory, could not listen at all.

A arrogant soldier will be defeated, and it has been possible since ancient times.

As a result, in an unknown valley on the way to Kashgar, Li Zicheng's army was surrounded by 200,000 Abudula's army, and there was no possibility of escape.

Li Zicheng was shocked and angry, so he had to order the entire army to attack and escape from the siege.

In order to boost morale, he led the army and led a group of guards to rush forward to fight against the soldiers of the Yarkand Khanate.

However, the Shun Army came from afar, exhausted, and was ambushed again, and surrounded the valley with great morale. Even if Li Zicheng led the way, he could not hide his defeat.

What's more, the Yarkand Khanate's combat method was very vicious. After quickly blocking the entrance of the valley, they immediately shot down the Shun Army with strong bows and crossbows. At the same time, a large number of rolling wood rolled down from the hillside, causing extremely terrible casualties to the Shun Army surrounded by the valley.

A whistling crossbow arrow shot through the chaotic crowd, with a light sound through the throat of Emperor Dashun Li Zicheng.

The emperor, who was the leader and bravely fought, stared wide and fell from the horse, and then was stepped on it into a thin piece of meat by the chaotic horse's hooves and human feet.

As soon as Li Zicheng died, Shunjun collapsed immediately.

Next, after a brief ambush battle, Li Zicheng's entire army was defeated, and the defeated soldiers fled everywhere, but there was no way out. In the end, all the soldiers and horses of the Yarkand Khanate were slaughtered like killing chickens and dogs.

This cruel valley ambush ends since then.

Emperor Dashun Li Zicheng, his subordinates Liu Zongmin, Tian Jianxiu and others, including Song Xiance and Li Yan, who were the staff of the army, all died in this battle.

Li Zicheng, the leader of the bandits who were the best in history in the late Ming Dynasty, finally reached the end of his life in this distant Western Regions.
