From Soldier To Emperor

In the Western Regions of the Ming Dynasty, the time goes back to the end of the 7th year of Ming Dynasty. At this time, the Lingjiu Palace had just finished the calf. Richard, who obtained the Life and Death Talisman, was recruiting (captures) Jianghu warriors from all over the northwestern region to join the Jinyiwei organization, expanding Jinyiwei, and at the same time responding to those The local armed forces and the arena forces that could not form a regiment carried out the final sweeping blow.

Although this kind of thing is not difficult, it is very complicated and requires a lot of troops and time to slowly clean it.

Fortunately, the Ming army has occupied the northwestern region for a year. Under the banner of Juntian Debt Free, a new batch of recruits composed of Han Chinese in the northwest has completed basic training. The purge of the remnant local armed forces and the arena is just right for training.

At the same time, the two large field armies that are free to take action can also serve as the main cleaning force.

However, during the great period of the Ming Dynasty, an undercurrent was surging in the Western Regions, and this undercurrent began when Richard led his troops to conquer!

In other words, this undercurrent has been in preparation for more than a year!

Among them are the gentry and gentry children of the big landlords who were dismantled by the Ming dynasty and remain incognito, there are also independent organizations of the Semu people that have not been eliminated, and more are the remnants of the Tufan tribe who were defeated in the Tufan Civil War!

It has to be said that Songtsen Gampo's military capabilities are still good at the same level of strength. In the Tufan civil war, without the intervention of the Ming army, Songtsen Gampo's'Central Army' led by Songtsan Gampo gradually gained an advantage.

Originally, the combined power of Tufan’s tribes surpassed Songtsen Gampo, but it’s a pity that Tufan’s major tribes are not under each other, and some even have feuds. The joint efforts against Songtsen Gampo are naturally only nominal. , Songtsen Gambo only slightly carried out a strategic wooing of distant and close offensives, and the tribal coalition forces in Tufan collapsed...

Then came the tug of war that Songtsen Gambo defeated one by one.

It is a pity that since Songtsen Gampo returned from the Western Regions, his reputation in the Tufan kingdom has been smashed to the end. Ordinary Tufan tribes are very dissatisfied with Songtsen Gampo's leaving the'miscellaneous army' to the Ming army to slaughter. The Tufan'unknown army' who were left behind all had relatives and friends.

As for the senior officials of the Tufan tribe, they were angry at Songtsen Gampo’s act of annexing the essence of the expeditionary army. In this way, coupled with the slander Songtsen Gamboo added by the Tufan tribe’s senior officials, most of the territory of the Turpan Kingdom went from top to bottom. There was a feeling of disgust for Songtsen Gambo’s rule.

Of course, the Tufan Civil War broke out...

It is a pity that the chiefs of the Tufan tribe were short-sighted and overestimated their own strength, one by one they were defeated by Songtsen Gambo.

In order to cleanse the hostile forces of the Tufan Kingdom and create trouble for the Ming Kingdom next door, Songtsen Gambo planned to expel the defeated Tufan tribe to the Western Regions on a large scale.

After all, most areas of the Turpan Kingdom are plateaus and mountainous areas. Even if Songtsen Gambo is willing to raise the butcher knife, it will be difficult to execute it. He simply drove those tribesmen and tribal chiefs who opposed him to the Western Regions.

This has led to the fact that a large number of poor Tufan people enter the Western Regions every year in the Western Regions, and conflicts between the garrison troops on the border and the defeated Tufan people often erupt.

After Richard left with Mingguo's main force, he drew a large number of troops in the Western Regions, which led to more and more Tufan tribes flooding into the Western Regions!

Although most of these people have lost their organization, they are not recognized by the mainstream of society in the Western Regions. If they can't speak fluent Chinese, they won't even be able to enter towns!

Therefore, these Turpans became a social instability factor in the Western Regions, which greatly enriched the strength of the local bandits and bandits. Even the native bandits in the Western Regions were mostly annexed by the Turfans...

Social instability, of course, has caused a reduction in food production. The local garrison can protect towns from harassment, but it is difficult to defend remote villages. As for caravans to be looted, it is more common!

This phenomenon became more serious after the main force of the Ming army’s eastward march. The Tufan-dominated bandits caused damage to the society of the Western Regions even more than sporadic self-reproduction green skin!

Of course, the most serious loss was the toothless local Han squires. The government's administrative system reached the town level at the lowest level. As long as the town was not breached, the loss of the government would be minimal.

The Ming dynasty officials did not care about local squire caravans being attacked, nor did they pay for the looting of their rural properties.

Therefore, local squires with serious losses but no private armament can only transfer their property losses to the exploitation of the Semu serfs!

The result is that the more Tufans influx, the greater the loss of the local gentry, and the more difficult the living environment of the Semu serfs!

The raging local government of Tufan bandits can also see that although they will not pay for the local squire who has suffered heavy losses, they also know that public security is the responsibility of the court and they also have a certain amount of compensation for the local squire.

Naturally, the compensation here cannot be financial ~www.wuxiahere.com~ The poor Ming country is very poor, and it is impossible to supplement the wealth of the local gentry.

But above the Semu serfs, the local government opened the door to convenience.

For example, the punishment for the death of Semu serfs has been reduced and then reduced. In the eyes of Han bureaucrats, Semu serfs are two-legged livestock, and it does not matter how many deaths there are.

The laissez-faire of the government allowed the local squires to let go of oppressing the Semu serfs to make up for their losses. As a result, a large number of the Semu serfs worked from morning to night without having enough food!

What the lofty Richard didn't know was that his **** serf system had begun to deteriorate and became more serious due to the influx of Tufan tribes and bandits.

After the main force of the Ming army led by Li Cha, the local unorganized **** serf riots broke out frequently, and then they were brutally suppressed by the local garrison.

Under repeated suppression, the serfs of the Semu were killed and wounded, causing the class antagonism between the two sides to become a big step towards life and death...

Of course, local officials couldn't see this. In their eyes, it would be a proper feat that the Semu serf riots were suppressed!

The more serfs killed in the rebellion, the higher the military merit rewards the officers of the local garrison will get!

The result is self-evident. While the imperial court’s high-handed policy successfully reduced the population of Semu serfdom, it also led ethnic contradictions to the volcanic eruption...

At this time, Richard was singing all the way to the northwestern region, and he was naturally impossible to know these things, and the local bureaucrats also reported the good and not the bad for their official career!

The Semu serf riots were repeatedly suppressed, causing the Han local squires to mistake the weakness of the Semu serfs to be deceived, and intensified their oppression and exploitation. It was in this general environment that independent organizations established by careerists developed rapidly in secret. !
