Zhu Cijiong, Li Yan, Li Mou, Li Nian and other generals were drinking wine in the splendid hall. In addition to the wine, there were also delicious food and beauties in cool clothes.
The South Asian subcontinent is truly a magical land.
This land is extremely rich in products and rich in beauties.
The low-caste women here are not only dark but also have body odor, which is disgusting to see.
However, women of high castes are not only white and have no body odor, but most of them are very charming and charming, and they also have an exotic style that is completely different from the women of the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Cijiong stayed in Delhi for less than half a month, and he felt vaguely happy and reluctant to miss Shu.
For a moment, Zhu Cijiong even thought about asking his father directly to grant him a vassal state in the South Asian subcontinent, right? It would be great if he could become a vassal state here.
Looking at the Mughal dancer dancing in the palace, Li Yan felt unbearable again.
"King Ding, castrate all the men in the South Asian subcontinent. The general will have no objection."
"But to force all the women of childbearing age here to be sterilized would be a waste of resources, right?"
Pointing to the dancing girl in front of him, Li Yan said again: "Look at these women, even if they give birth to children for Da Ming'erlang, they will definitely have fair skin and no stench, so why are you desperate?"
"Did I ever say that I would give these women despair?" Zhu Cijiong said in astonishment.
"You should, I think you said it." Li Yan said, "Yes, you said it."
"Really? Then let me change it." Zhu Cijiong said, "Those with fair skin and no body odor don't need to despair. Just sterilize those who are dark and smelly."
"This is best." Li Yan nodded and said, "Prince Ding, there is something you have thought about?"
Zhu Cijiong tore off a piece of lamb leg and asked with a smile: "Li Yan, are you worried about governance issues?"
"Yes, how to govern the South Asian subcontinent is a big problem." Li Yan said, "The population of this continent is so large that it exceeds our imagination. Our five and a half cavalry divisions will definitely not be able to control it."
Zhu Cijiong's expression gradually became solemn, and he asked again: "I wonder what you have to say?"
"For the time being, I'm afraid we have to use the policy of restraining the invaders." Li Yan said in a deep voice, "The Mughal Empire was originally composed of large and small gangs. As long as we destroy the Mughal Empire, the gangs in various places will
Independence, then we can adopt a policy of restraint against the feudal states that cannot be controlled."
Zhu Cijiong: "Are you saying that we will manage the areas we can manage ourselves, and leave the areas we can't control to the various feudal states? When we have more people and sufficient capabilities in the future, we will deal with these feudal states one by one?"
"Yes." Li Yan nodded, "But I'm afraid it will take a long time."
After a pause, Li Yan continued: "Unless the Holy One can mobilize one million or even five million soldiers from the mainland, it will take at least twenty years until the first generation of South Asia's descendants have grown up.
We can conquer all the neighboring kingdoms, but by that time, the process of assimilating the South Asian subcontinent will be greatly accelerated."
"How is it possible to mobilize millions of troops from the mainland?" Zhu Cijiong frowned.
"It's really impossible." Li Yan counted on his fingers. "Beizhi Town has transferred 20,000 troops to North Korea, Nanzhi Town has also transferred 20,000 troops to Japan, and Huguang Town has just sent 20,000 troops to the Japanese."
It became an infantry division and followed Sheng Shang to Nanyang. Guanzhong Zhentai and Sichuan Zhentai had to mobilize at least 60,000 soldiers to fill the towns in Inner and Outer Mongolia. In other words, Yunnan Zhentai could transfer soldiers, and the number would not be at most
There are more than 40,000, and 20,000 of them must be allocated to the snow area first."
Based on this calculation, the Ming Dynasty could mobilize up to 20,000 troops to suppress the war.
"This is too few." Zhu Cijiong frowned and said, "There are only 20,000 soldiers. Let alone expansion, it is a question whether we can defend Delhi and the surrounding plains. Then our two cavalry armies are trapped here.
No more."
Li Yan continued: "And we have to stay here for at least twenty years. It won't work for less time."
"Are you kidding me?" Zhu Cijiong jumped up and shouted, "My gun has become rusty after twenty years!"
The sudden roar of filial piety startled the dozens of dancers dancing in the hall, and they all stopped in unison and looked at Zhu Cijiong anxiously.
"If it doesn't work, then kill them all!" Zhu Cijiong's eyes showed a stern look, "Just treat it like the four major khanates in Central Asia. Even if the entire South Asia cannot be wiped out, we will still kill most of the indigenous people.
Then use the Arabs to implement the rule, so 20,000 soldiers will be enough to maintain the situation."
Abdullah said that there are at least 500,000 Arabs in South Asia. This way, we can gather at least 200,000 troops. Together with the Ming Dynasty's 20,000 soldiers, it is enough to rule over 10 million South Asian natives.
Both Japan and Korea have this model, with 20,000 Ming Dynasty soldiers plus 200,000 servants. At least until now, the political situation in Japan and Korea is very stable.
"King Ding, if you kill too many people, there will be peace!" Li Yan became anxious when he heard this and said hurriedly, "God has the virtue of good life. The Holy Spirit also said that what the Ming Dynasty lacks most is labor. There are so many laborers in the South Asian subcontinent. If we arrest them,
If we go to mine, smelt, and build railways, how much ore can be mined, how much iron can be mined, and how long of railways can we build? If we kill them all, it would be a waste!"
Zhu Cijiong also hesitated when he heard this. This is not hundreds of thousands or even millions of workers.
This is tens of millions of workers. If we can retain so many workers, how many things can be done?
After a long while, Zhu Cijiong suddenly remembered that there was a radio station. He smiled and said, "Isn't there a radio station? What are we using our brains for? Send a telegram to my father immediately and ask him for an idea."
…
in Manila.
Chongzhen was discussing with Jiang Tianyi and others the number of garrison troops.
Luzon Island is no better than Taiwan. There are not many indigenous people in Taiwan, but there are at least two million indigenous people on Luzon Island. With so many indigenous people and only one regiment of garrison left, it seems a bit stretched.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But leaving a brigade seems a bit much.
Because the indigenous people on Luzon Island are in an uncivilized primitive social form, there is no state at all, but they are composed of countless primitive tribes, large and small.
After discussion, Chongzhen finally decided to leave a four-camp reinforced regiment.
Two of the battalions are responsible for garrisoning Luzon City (Manila), and the other two battalions are responsible for armed development of the main island of Luzon and the surrounding islands.
Well, the development and stuff are just beautification.
In fact, it is to capture indigenous people as laborers, and then use them for mining and logging.
Anyway, the Ming Dynasty positioned Southeast Asia as a supplier of raw materials and a dumping ground for industrial products. As for the development of industry, the Ming Dynasty was enough.
The problem of Luzon Island had just been solved, and before Chongzhen had time to eat, another telegram was delivered to him.
"Your Majesty, King Ding has just sent an urgent telegram." Jiang Tianyi looked at the telegram and said, "The 1st Cavalry Army has almost completely wiped out the Mughal army in a small town called Lahar. It is a pity that the Mughal Emperor
Prince Aurunzeb escaped, but after this battle, the Mughal dynasty was completely defeated."
"Okay." Chongzhen said, "This is a good thing."
"It's a good thing, but then there will be trouble."
After a pause, Jiang Tianyi continued: "King Ding is not willing to stay too long in South Asia. He wants to lead the main force of the 1st Cavalry Corps back to Central Asia as soon as possible, but I am afraid that the one and a half cavalry divisions brought by Li Yan cannot hold the position."
Delhi, even if an infantry division is urgently transferred from Yunnan to Taiwan, it will be a drop in the bucket."
"That's true." Chongzhen said, "The South Asian subcontinent has a population of over 100 million, and there are colonies of Portugal, the Netherlands and other countries in Bombay, Goa, Madras and other places. Once pressed, the Mughals will
The empire might even ask for support from the local Portuguese or Dutch governor."
"Once the Mughal Empire joins forces with Portugal, the Netherlands and other countries, it will be very difficult for Li Yan's cavalry division to cope with it alone. It is not safe to transfer another division from Zhentai, Yunnan, because South Asia and the Pacific
It’s too big, and the population of the South Asian subcontinent is too large, which is really a troublesome thing.”
At the end of the sentence, Chongzhen also frowned.
Jiang Tian said: "That's why King Ding suggested killing them all."
"That's not possible." Chongzhen categorically objected. "After breaking the city and killing tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, it's okay to kill hundreds of millions of people in the entire South Asian subcontinent. That's the behavior of a madman!"
"I am not a madman, and I will not allow my prince to be a madman."
"Then there is no solution to this matter." Jiang Tianyi said, "Either let King Ding's 1st Cavalry Corps be stationed in Delhi for a long time, and then attack steadily and gradually encroach on the surrounding city-states, or we can only kill all the indigenous people."
"No, we have another choice." Chongzhen said solemnly, "That is to negotiate peace with the Mughal Empire."
"Negotiation?" Jiang Tianyi couldn't help but be stunned. He had never considered the option of peace.
But as a time traveler, Chongzhen knew how to negotiate peace better than anyone else. In another world, under the premise that the Western powers could not swallow China in one go, the strategy they usually used was to fight a war first, then negotiate a peace, and then
Ask for as many benefits as possible from China through peace negotiations.
This set of rules can be applied to the Mughal Empire.
In the future, this method can also be used on the Sawifa Dynasty of Persia, Ottoman Turkey, Tsarist Russia and various European countries. They will first suck blood and continue to suck blood. When these countries become weak enough, they can gather enough strength to defeat them.
Swallow it in one bite, there is no better choice than this.
At that moment, Chongzhen said again: "Yes, let's negotiate peace."
"Let the Mughal Empire cede one or several coastal cities as overseas territories to the Ming Dynasty, and then compensate the Ming army for the losses caused by its military operations."
