Chapter 71 Dorgon Enters Beijing

There have been some comments on Mu Tianbo in history. This guy is a bit pedantic and lacks enterprising spirit.

Zhu Cilang would not pursue the matter that he once expressed his loyalty to Zhu Yousong, after all, this guy didn't know the situation at that time.

Officials from all over the south of the Yangtze River kowtowed to Zhu Yousong. If they were investigated, would these people be rebellious?

"If you send the order, take a look at the treasury in Jiangnan, and send all weapons such as swords, guns, sticks and sticks to Mu Tianbo. We don't need it anyway, so we can increase their combat power a little."

Zhu Cilang thought for a while and said, although the 500,000 taels of silver is not much, it also represents the people's heart. Sending back some unusable weapons can be regarded as a reward.

"What the prince said is that the southwestern border is stable. In fact, those chieftains don't know what they think. The powerful Duke of Qian can also shock them well."

Takata has conducted a lot of investigations over the years, so he naturally knows what those people in the southwest think.

If it weren't for the Duke of Qian, I would have no idea how many small countries had been established, and those people would not have much sense of belonging to the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Cilang also learned about the situation in the southwest of the Ming Dynasty. Although the local area was submissive on the surface, it was secretly full of wolf ambitions.

When you free up your hands, you have to teach them a good class so that they can be honest from now on.

"Your Highness, there is another thing. When the old slave came back from the south, he met a few Westerners. They said they would sell us a batch of artillery to resist the Qing Dynasty in the north. However, there is a condition that I hope to approve some unmanned islands on the coast for them to go ashore to dry goods..."

"Absolutely not."

Before Takata finished speaking, he was immediately interrupted by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Takata didn't understand what was wrong. Why was His Royal Highness's reaction so intense?

Takata didn't know the routines of these foreigners, but Zhu Cilang was very clear about them.

These foreigners now use this as an excuse to slowly occupy this place and then become their colonies.

Nowadays, Western countries are in a state of expansion and must not give them any chance.

Although Zhu Ciyang knew this, Takata and the others didn't know it very well. Anyway, the Ming Dynasty had many lands, so I could get a batch of weapons for a few islands that didn't shit. Why not do it?

In other words, they do not have any concept of sovereignty yet.

"You send an order immediately and tell local officials as quickly as possible that without the permission of the court, no one shall establish any form of contract with Westerners, nor shall they rent land for them. Without the permission of the court, they will not be allowed to buy houses and buy land within the country. Those who violate the order shall be killed."

Zhu Cixuan has his own considerations in this matter. Our system can produce various weapons, which are much more advanced than Westerners, so there is no need to import them for the time being.

Even if the two sides trade, the court must carry out the business together so that enough profits can be obtained.

As for renting land, it is absolutely not allowed. Zhu Cixuan knew that the Ming officials at this stage did not have such strong ideas and were likely to be surrounded by these people, so he might just have one-size-fits-all approach.

"But……"

What else did Takata want to say? But after seeing Zhu Cilang's eyes, he swallowed the rest.

These people are already used to it. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will do whatever he says. He will never go against His Royal Highness in these matters.

"As I said, there is no room for any turnaround in this matter. You don't understand these Westerners now. In fact, they are all wolves ambitions, and you don't know the outside world. But when we pacify the inside, we will eventually take you to see the Western countries."

Zhu Cilang said very proudly, thinking that Takata would be very excited, but who knew that Takata had a disgusting expression on his face.

Of course, what this guy disliked was not His Highness the Crown Prince, but the Western countries that His Highness said.

In the eyes of these people today, except for the Ming Dynasty, other places are barbaric countries and are not good places at all. We will not go there for free.

In this era, the thoughts of the Celestial Kingdom were deeply rooted. This was how the imperial court educated and the folk legends were.

If you want to let them know their strengths in a short period of time, I am afraid these people will not be able to accept it.

In their opinion, Westerners have colorful hair, which is similar to monkeys.

Only those with dark hair and yellow skin can be called humans, and the remaining colored ones have not evolved.

Looking at the face of Takata's disgusting foreigner, Zhu Cilang didn't know what to say...

Capital.

In these few months, the capital city welcomed a new master, first the original Emperor Chongzhen, later the current Prince His Highness, and later Li Zicheng, and now the Qing people have been welcomed.

"This is the capital city, the prince. I used to say that the Ming Dynasty's prosperous slaves never believed it. I also thought that our Shengjing City was very prosperous, but compared with this place, it was a big difference."

At this moment, on the streets of the capital, the Regent Dorgon rode a tall horse arrogantly and walked happily to the imperial city from outside the city. The little eunuch beside him was just talking.

Li Zicheng was defeated and was defeated very badly. When he ran out, he left with only tens of thousands of defeated generals. If he hadn't run fast, he would have been completely destroyed.

"Where is this? The truly prosperous Ming Dynasty is all in their Jiangnan. Although the capital is not bad, it is still a little different from Jiangnan. I will take down Jiangnan sooner or later, that is my Qing Dynasty."

Dorgon has been thinking about entering the pass since he was a child, including his father and brother.

I have been fighting for wars all these years, but I didn't expect that they did not fulfill this wish. Instead, Dorgon fulfilled this wish.

The Qing court was filled with praise, and many people even asked Dorgon to ascend the throne directly.

This guy is also a little fluttering now, feeling that his contribution has exceeded that of his father and brother. If he hadn't had the relationship with Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, he would have really been unwilling to support the little emperor at this moment.

But it’s not yet time to be happy, just taking over the capital is not enough.

The entire Ming Dynasty was very large, from the capital to Liaodong, this was just a small piece of land.

From the capital to the south, this is the most prosperous place in the Ming Dynasty. After taking it down, the Qing Dynasty had a territory for generations.
