While the Tawu Kel Khan brothers actively faced the overwhelming internal and external threats, Qi Jiguang of Dayuzi was also busy learning new knowledge.

"Rakshasa Kingdom?"

In order to facilitate long-distance marching, Qi Jiguang's creative soul was still burning. After the trench bunker suitable for the hidden prairie of flat grasslands, he modified the Franc machine toward the cannon cart.

A layer of wooden frame is nailed outside each car, and six thick wooden pillars of the same length as the vehicle are stacked inside. The two ends of the wooden pillars can be mortise and tenon together after processing. When camping, one, two, three, four or even more wooden pillars are erected on the spot. Put a tent cloth on the spot to make various types of military tents.

In order to prevent the vehicle from sinking, there are some wide wooden boards made in the Yili River Valley on the other side. When the ground is heavy, you can take a seat on the car to make the floor. Desert march can also prevent the wheels from sinking and slipping.

Qi Jiguang's troops not only had box trucks, but also many large trucks transporting supplies. Without this thing, they could not move in the desert.

In battle, these wooden pillars placed outside the car board can also protect bullets, arrows and block shells to a certain extent.

The reason for this is to a certain extent is that it can only protect the Fran machine cannon. General Zhenshuo cannot stop it. Qi Jiguang has heard of the stone cannon that he has never seen before. Even Chen Mu is powerful in the official documents, and Qi Jiguang believes in this.

Although Kang Liji hoped that Qi Jiguang could move into his tribe, Qi Jiguang did not accept this risky kindness. His troops carried too much supplies, and not to mention that Kang Liji's tribe had no good living.

The towns of Dayuzi are all over there, and the scattered tribes next to Lake Balkhash in the north are not much different from living in military tents.

Four large trucks were parked in four corners, and the large military tent was crowded with people. They had merchants and knowledgeable travelers from all over the country who traveled south and the knowledgeable travelers in Guangtong. They were drawings for Qi Jiguang.

The middle of the Central Army's tent is covered with several sheepskins, and maps of various proportions and regions are drawn on them. The common point of these maps is that they are not accurate and are very vague.

It’s true that Kazakh maps are not difficult to draw. They have never been to many places themselves. They just generally say that it is a Gobi and a desert.

There are many hilly and mountainous areas in the east, and there are also plains, rivers and lakes.

Qi Jiguang didn't care about this map. He cared about a larger map. As long as his soldiers could come and go freely, they would soon get the most exquisite map in the world without any need to rely on others.

Mount Altai and Tianshan are the westernmost end of the world known on the Ming Dynasty. Genghis Khan, who should have completely controlled the world on the land, were obsessed with the killing of his own martial arts, which made the Oirats know about this land only because of whose son was next to their grassland, was grazing and unable to help.

Qi Jiguang was eager to know that on the way to hunt marten for the emperor to the north and receive the supplies of the Western Military Palace to the west, he would encounter those enemies again, and then a strangely shaped giant was drawn on the map.

The Duchy of Moscow, whose territory was divided into two from the middle by the Ural Mountains, or the Rakshasa Empire, which regarded itself as the orthodox Roman Empire.

Its great achievements in implementing military reforms, facing the Krim Khanate in the West, the Polish coalition forces annexed and controlled the Kazan Khanate, took advantage of the opportunity to enter the Astrakhan Khanate, and invaded the Siberian Khanate, which also drew a styling and clawed appearance to Qi Jiguang's mind.

The most important thing is that this ruler, who claimed to be Caesar, looked different from others. He was a slave to the Golden Horde in the past, and Qi Jiguang's eyes lit up.

It’s not that enemies don’t get together, but his Mongolians have a place to release them.

When Qi Jiguang heard that the Rakshasa Kingdom did not collect gold and silver taxes after invading those Khanates, and collected 1,000 minks a year in the Siberian Khanate, Qi Jiguang's eyes became brighter.

To be honest, the emperor wrote a letter to ask Qi Jiguang to send hunters to hunt fur from the northwest region to the north. He was very confused. The Ming Dynasty did not lack fur.

One thing that was very impressive when he was in Ji Town was that the city of Liaodong traded 47,243 minks in half a year.

Because the number is too large, he still remembers it clearly.

This is just mink.

Qi Jiguang also talked about minks with Li Chengliang. As a middleman in the Central Plains and Haixi Jurchens and the savage Jurchens, it was a bad trend to exchange two minks for a large amount of capital and gradually control two minks.

But it was useless for them to talk about this. Even the emperor and Zhang Juzheng could not control the matter of wearing Diao'er. No one could control it.

Because the Ming people did not expose marten hair on their clothes, and the outside was covered with satin faces. It was hard to see if others really wanted to hide it.

The dressing style of Zhongyuan is very polarized, and some of them are very colorful. The more conspicuous the better; but the more conspicuous the one is the dark pattern. If you don’t understand it, you won’t be able to see it carefully. This is why.

So despite his doubts, he was quite happy that the emperor was paying attention to this matter, at least it showed that the court had noticed it, and things would change: minks can generate greater profits.

Greater profits will drive more middlemen to join the mink business.

Now, Qi Jiguang is exposed to more information.

No one in this world can have more information than the Ming Dynasty. The more information people have, the more thorough the whole world will be in the eyes of the Ming Dynasty, and the ins and outs of everything will become clearer.

The Ming army in Puli County reported to Chen Mu about the fur arms trade between England and the Principality of Moscow.

This news landed in Wangxia Prefecture from the Heishui Marine Islands, sent to Beijing by telegram, and then quickly transmitted to Jiayuguan. It was sent to the Yili River Valley day and night at the military stronghold along the way, completing the journey of most of the world.

If you don’t know this, how could Qi Jiguang imagine that the barbarians on the westernmost island of the mainland purchased fur, causing several Khanate to suffer wars?

But now that these news are summarized together, the conclusions are easily extracted.

Of course, Qi Jiguang never expected that his emperor had fallen into the eyes of money, and asked him to send people to hunt north so that he could make money.

Wanli always felt that he was poor and had no choice. The money here had to be built warships, the money had to be built, the amount of money had to be kept for disaster relief, not to mention the popularization of education, the high military pay required for military reform, and the messy technology waiting to be invested and his ground museum, Sanzhou Palace.

He was so poor that he couldn't even afford to repair a tomb.

Qi Jiguang didn't know this. He felt that His Majesty had his own wise decision, and he relied on his imagination to make up a big plan to monopolize the world's fur business, and subconsciously regarded this Rakshasa Kingdom, which appeared in his eyes, as his enemy.
