1689, the tenth day of September.

The Kuritai Conference, which decided the future of the Qing Mongol Empire and the people of Tianzhu, was finally held outside Astana outside a huge golden-roofed yellow tent after the wedding of Kangxi Khan and Queen Sophia.

And now, Kangxi, as the Great Khan of Mongolia, sat high with his Queen Sophia.

At the bottom are Fuquan, Cewang, Heshuote Khan, Khiva Khan and Bukhara Khan.

At this Kuritai Conference, Kangxi Khan represented the Junggar Khanate, the Kazakh Khanate, and the Golden Horde. He had claims to three khanates!

Because she slept with Kangxi all night, Sophia recognized Kangxi's claim to the Golden Horde on behalf of Rakshasa, but there was no actual land allocated to Kangxi.

Of course, Aurangzeb of the Mughal Khanate (Mughal) did not send anyone to attend the Kuritai Conference - this would be the crime of Kangxi Khan's crusade against them!

Refusing to participate in the Kulitai Conference means breaking away from the Mongol Empire and opposing the ancestral system of the Mongol Empire!

As the Great Khan of Mongolia, Kangxi Khan was justified in attacking them.

Including the Mughal Khanate that did not participate, there are a total of seven khanates this time!

Kangxi, who was well versed in European history, decided to propose a sacred Qing-Mongol empire.

How to do it.

Just copy the Holy Roman Empire's emperor-electing system. Theirs is a khan-electing system.

For this reason, Kangxi Khan plagiarized Shinra's "Golden Edict" and formulated a "Huanglong Edict" with charter meaning!

The edict stipulates that as long as five khans participate in the election khan meeting, and four khan election votes agree, a legal khan election meeting resolution can be formed!

The resolution of the Khan-selecting Conference is the highest national policy of the Mongol Empire!

Kangxi alone had three khanates, and he could vote for himself three times!

As for the other khans, they all voted for him. All the first-term Mongolian khans were Kangxi Kangmazi!

He looked at the three elected khans below, then at the nobles of each khanate who attended the meeting but did not have the right to vote, as well as the great lama in charge of supervision, and an Orthodox archbishop, and then announced loudly:

"I was elected by the six Khans of the Golden Horde, Junggar Khan, Kazakh Khan, Khoshot Khan, Shiva Khan, and Bukhara Khan to become the first Heavenly Khan of the Holy Qing Mongol Empire. From now on, I will rule like Genghis Khan.

Mongolia is the khan of all sweats, the lord of the grasslands and deserts, and the khan of the four seas. Who among you has any objections?"

Of course no one would dare to disagree.

So when Kangxi Khan's question came out, long live Shanhu who answered him in various languages!

The feeling of being a saint comes back.

"Long live, long live" shouted in Mongolian, Manchu, Chinese, Rakshasa, Turkic, and Tibetan languages ​​were mixed together, intertwined into the most beautiful sound in the world, and made those who were beaten by the Ming Dynasty run away with their heads in their arms.

Kangxi regained his sense of self-respect.

This feeling is so good!

The only pity is that the Mongolian traitors from Monan and Mobei did not come to attend this conference.

If those traitors saw such a grand occasion, would they regret it?

Kangxi was almost drunk, until the people below stopped cheering and all raised their heads and stared at him blankly, he was still there savoring the taste!

I feel like my Qing Dynasty is flourishing again!

Kangxi Khan thought of this and announced loudly: "Aurangzeb, the Khan of the Mughal Khanate, dared to violate our Mongol ancestral system, refused to attend the Kuritai Conference, and did not send envoys to apologize. This shows that he

If you want to establish yourself as the Great Khan of Mongolia, you must become my enemy! So I decided to strike preemptively and personally lead millions of soldiers from the four great Mongol khanates to attack the Mughal Khanate! I will not return until Tianzhu is destroyed!"

"Destroy Tianzhu!"

"Destroy Tianzhu!"

When Kangxi's career was booming, Zhu Kezang was also inspecting the country's railway construction.

At present, the only railway that has been built in the Ming Dynasty is the Beijing-Hangzhou Railway (Yingtian to Hangzhou), and the infrastructure of the Ming Dynasty still needs to be developed.

Therefore, after the annual meeting of Zhen Confucian scholars in 1689, the meeting adopted the first five-year plan of the Ming Dynasty!

That is, from the end of 1689 to the end of 1694.

In the plan, Daming decided to build the Shun-Han Railway (Shuntian to Wuhan) and the Guangdong-Han Railway (Guangzhou to Wuhan)

At this time, due to the obstruction of the Yangtze River and the inability of Ming Dynasty to build the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, it could only follow the historical compromise plan.

If a person wants to go south from Shuntian City to Guangzhou, he needs to take the Shuntian-Han Railway first.

Arrive at the train station in Hankou, then carry your luggage to the Guangdong-Hankou Pier, take a special ferry across the Yangtze River to the train station, wait for the train again, and take the Guangdong-Hankou Line!

In addition, in order to connect Yingtianfu and Shuntianfu, a Shunyang Railway (Shuntian to Yangzhou) is also under construction.

With this railway, from Shuntianfu to Yingtianfu, you only need to transfer at Yangzhou Ferry to reach Diyingtian!

These three major railways are planned to be constructed and opened to traffic within five years. With these railways, Ming Dynasty will enter a new industrial era.

In addition to these three major lines, there are also several eye-catching smaller lines.

For example, the railway connecting Datong and Shuntianfu is particularly interesting.

why?

Because Datong has the largest coal mine in Ming Dynasty!

There is no literature on when the development and utilization of coal in Datong began.

However, according to the historical fact that there are many coal seam outcrops in the Datong coalfield and they have been spontaneously combusting for a long time, in connection with the Neolithic Age, the ancestors of the Efeokou site in Huairen County, adjacent to Datong, had used fire and were able to mine exposed coal seams from the valley slopes.

Stone tools were made from interlayers of Ascended tuff and lamprophyre. It is inferred that the flammability of coal may have been discovered during the Neolithic period and the coal was picked up from outcrops of coal seams and utilized.

"Shui Jing Zhu" written by Li Daoyuan during the Northern Wei Dynasty was the first written record of the spontaneous combustion of coal seams and the development and utilization of coal in the Datong area. By the Song Dynasty, coal was widely used as fuel in metallurgy, ceramics and other industries, and coal played an important role in the social economy.

Its status is becoming increasingly important, and coal has been widely burned in Datong area.

During the Liao, Jin, and Yuan dynasties, the coal mining industry in Datong was already very developed, and the iron smelting industry also continued to flourish, which promoted the development of the coal mining industry.

During the Ming and Qing dynasties, coal was widely used in iron smelting, money casting, sulfur refining, and lime burning.

Due to the widespread use and popularity of the Ming Dynasty steam engine, coal mines became more and more popular.

The Ming Dynasty Shanxi State-owned Coal Mining Corporation came into being, specifically responsible for the coal mines in Shanxi.

After resting for one night in Datong City, Zhu Kezang went to Datong Coal Mine the next day, accompanied by Lu Fan, Minister of Industry.

Last month, three mining accidents occurred in this coal mine, killing 41 miners and injuring more than 20 miners.

Fortunately, half of these dead miners were Manchurian bannermen and do not need to be concerned.

But half of them are local people in Shanxi who are struggling to make a living. They all have relatives, and the Ministry of Household Affairs has registered their information in detail.

This time Zhu Kezang provided pensions to their relatives.

For the living miners and their relatives, it was an inspiring event for the emperor to come to express his condolences in person.

Moreover, Zhu Kezang also brought the art troupe of the Ming Guards to give the miners a unique art performance.

Of course, in addition to this, Zhu Kezang also prepared some condolences. It was five hundred Yingtian hams provided by Yingtian Meat Joint Factory as an extra meal.
