: Injecting martial virtue into the pagans (please subscribe!)

Zhu Kezang gently put the telegram in his hand back on the desk and sighed softly.

He never expected that the religious riots in Shaanxi and Gansu that were supposed to have occurred only during the Tongzhi period of the late Qing Dynasty actually detonated early because of the defeat of the Qing army.

Fortunately, the large Ming army was close and no serious consequences were caused.

That turmoil in history was truly terrifying.

According to relevant historical statistics, the total population of Shaanxi before the turmoil was 14 million, and the total population of Gansu and Ningxia before the turmoil was about 19 million.

After the turmoil, the total population of Shaanxi was about 7 million, and the total population of Gansu and Ningxia was about 4 million.

It is estimated that the religious riots in Shaanxi and Gansu resulted in a total population loss of at least 23 million in the Shaanxi and Gansu regions, of which 20 million Han people were killed.

When Zuo Zongtang entered Gansu during his western expedition, he described it as "Ping, Qing, Jing, and Gujian are thousands of miles of desolation, with white bones and yellow thatch in sight, and no smoke from cooking stoves. The disaster is so terrible that it is truly unparalleled in the world."

In order to prevent similar things from happening again in the future, Zhu Kezang sent a telegram: "No matter how the Ming Dynasty will deal with the vast territory of the northwest in the future, there is only one attitude towards this religion, and that is a complete ban!"

At least no matter how many killings it causes, it is worth it.

According to the wolf totem theory, this was Emperor Zhu Da injecting martial virtue into the pagans who did not have sufficient martial virtue. Unfortunately, the dose was too high and the blood of the pagans was too thin, so the pagans could not tolerate it.

Tired to death.

Just like some patients who took tonic medicine and accidentally killed themselves, Emperor Zhu Da's intention was good, but Huang Qing and others just carried it out wrongly.

It would be great if it were more conducive to the spread of true Confucianism. Zhu Kezang remembered that there was a Yuelu Academy in Hunan, but it was a pity that its scope of influence was only in southern China.

Unless the believers of the faith are taken in turns to be sent to the south for labor reform, they may be able to enjoy the buff of Yuelu Academy.

When Zhu Kezang had a headache about Northwest, Kangxi also started to have a headache.

Because he saw Sophia!

Field Marshal Count Golovin, who was riding beside Sophia's carriage, also saw his destination and quickly gave the order: "Get the princess's horse!"

"Cossack Guards, line up!"

Then a high-pitched bugle sound was heard. A large group of Cossack cavalry who were fishing suddenly became energetic when they heard the bugle sound.

Count Golovin has explained that the issue of Princess Sophia's marriage is related to the development of the Rakshasa Kingdom for a hundred years. If something goes wrong because of them, they will all be dragged to the Baltic Sea to feed the fish.

The Cossack Guards are the elite of the Cossack cavalry. They stood up quickly on horseback and quickly formed their formation amidst the sound of "Urah".

At the same time, Princess Sophia's two male attendants had brought two strong Caucasian horses.

Caucasian horses are strong and tall, and most of their coats are golden chestnut. They have long endurance, strong adaptability, responsiveness, and loyalty to their owners.

Like the Qing Dynasty, which had Kazakhs and Junggars, the Rakshasa Kingdom had no shortage of horses. This was in sharp contrast to the Ming Dynasty.

Sophia was wearing a Rakshasa robe with high slits. She was a good horse rider, but she was not very agile when getting on the horse.

Because Sophia is a big fat person, she has this devilish figure of more than 200 kilograms!

You must know that Kangxi is now only 101 pounds thin, she is equivalent to two Kangxis!

Since her body was not very flexible, Sophia had to step on the back of an attendant who was lying on the ground to mount her horse.

The look on the face of the attendant who was stepped on by her was visibly different, and he seemed to be a little overwhelmed.

Her personal maid, Polina, was much better, with a slim figure, and she got on the horse with a slight jump.

Sophia and Polina, the master and servant, rode on tall horses, and under the protection of Golovin and hundreds of Cossack guards, left the large group of people and galloped away in the direction of Kangxi Khan.

At this moment, someone in the team was uneasy, and he said Longkodo.

He didn't know how he should explain to Kangxi later, he just hoped he wouldn't be beheaded!

Kangxi must have been humiliated. Princess Sophia had already been brought and invited so many international guests that he had no choice but to break off the engagement!

If Kangxi dared to break off the engagement, the Qing Dynasty's international reputation would be ruined.

So Kangxi could only hold his nose and admit the marriage. After the marriage was completed, he would definitely take out his anger on Long Ke. Could it be that he, a loyal minister of bodyguard, had no choice but to run away and turn into the enemy?

There are rumors that Nalan Mingzhu, a minister of the Yehenala family, changed his surname to Han and became prosperous in the Ming Dynasty.

To put it bluntly, Tongjia Longkodo said that his ancestors were Han Chinese, and he just raised the flag. He should be able to mix with Tou Ming, right?

There had always been rumors that his uncle Tongjia Guogang had voted for the Ming Dynasty outside the customs. Fortunately, more and more people had voted for the Ming Dynasty, and no one cared about it anymore.

Moreover, his father, Tong Jia Guowei, took advantage of the opportunity to refute the rumors for his brother, saying that Tong Jia Guogang had definitely not surrendered and had been buried in the Qing Dynasty. Those who said he surrendered were all loyal ministers!

For this reason, Kangxi could not treat his uncle badly, so he posthumously named him Grand Tutor and ordered a state funeral (cloth tomb) for him.

There are confessions everywhere, and it is hard to find a case of loyalty. You must publicize it everywhere, otherwise people will lose heart and it will be difficult to lead the team.

It is reported that on the day Kangxi held his state funeral, Tong Guogang sneezed several times in the Ming Dynasty.

Going a step further, while Longkodo was studying the escape route, Kangxi Khan was very interested. He was looking westward with a telescope, looking for his future queen!

Suddenly, he saw yellow, white and black flags and a gaudy eagle flag appearing on the horizon.

Kangxi secretly complained that he was really ugly. If he becomes a naturalized Rakshasa Eight Banners in the future, he must change their flags!

Just when Kangxi was thinking wildly, a beautiful Rakshasa woman with petite figure, fair skin, wearing a red robe and a mink hat appeared in his field of vision. Under the protection of a sturdy "Khan", she rode her horse and flew

Come running.

Kangxi naturally regarded the maid Polina as Sophia, and Sophia as the princess's bodyguard, and she was also a very capable bodyguard.

In ancient times, fatness represented strong fighting ability.

The so-called strong in the eyes of modern people must mean that the body is full of tendons, like Schwarzenegger, but this was not the case in ancient times.

If you pay attention to the portraits of generals in the past dynasties, you will find that almost all of them are fat.

Although traditional Chinese painting art is different from Western sketches, it is still relatively close to reality, because military generals also care about their own appearance and will not draw an image that is completely different from themselves, and what they draw must satisfy themselves.

Effect.

In other words, a round face, a double chin, and a big belly were the appearance that ancient military commanders were satisfied with.

In confrontations in the cold weapon age, soldiers were generally protected by armor. In this case, fat could play an important buffering role and resist blunt force damage.

Even in the face of sharp cold weapons, fat can even withstand puncture attacks and will not damage key parts of muscles and bones.

Therefore, in ancient battlefields, fat was simply a survival weapon. Even if you were injured, you were more likely to survive.

Therefore, in Kangxi's view, Sophia was the kind of top bodyguard.

Kangxi nodded secretly, "Don't think about it, with such a fierce guard, this girl must be Princess Sophia!"
