Ming Zuo

Gudenov and his party walked very hard and suffered countless hardships.

But his spirit is very good, and he feels that he can fight for more interests for Russia.

He didn't even know that behind him, the Wehrmacht never stopped.

The Wehrmacht in the center has captured Kilensk and is marching towards Bratsk.

Once this place is captured by the Wehrmacht, there will be only one stronghold left in Russia, Turuhansk, in the entire east of the Yenisei River.

And that stronghold was so close to the North Pole that it was of little use.

When the fourth division drilled out of Mangyuan, it was also inevitable.

Originally, Gudenov and his party had already crossed the Altai Mountains and entered the Western Regions, but they were suddenly notified and had to turn around and head southwest.

Because Zuo Menggeng didn't stay in Turpan for too long, he even left Xijing and entered Central Asia.

He didn't even take the route of Zuo Xuanyan and the Seventh Division, but crossed Lake Iksai, turned southwest, and entered the Fergana Basin.

Here, there is also a well -known city.

Haohan.

During the Qing Dynasty, the Kokand Khanate’s invasion of the Western Regions, as well as Zuo Gong’s tragic Western Expeditions, are the history that Chinese people will always remember.

At this time, standing at the head of Haokand City, Zuo Menggeng felt relaxed and happy.

I don't know if there will be Zuo Gong 200 years later, but at least people at that time no longer have to worry about the Western Regions.

"Pass down the order to change the name of this city to Zuogong City."

No one knew why it was named so, but seeing the emperor's firm attitude, naturally no one raised any objections.

Moreover, it has been rumored that Zuo Menggeng and Zuo Xuanyan, the father and daughter, seem to have a habit of naming names.

A fairy city was named over there, and a Zuogong city was named here.

At this time, Zuo Menggeng also got the news that the Russian delegation was coming, and he decided to stay in Kokand for a while, and at the same time give more confidence to the officials below.

With him as the emperor, the officials below carry out local reforms without any worries.

After all, the emperor gathered around the army, and the force was powerful, and officials were not afraid to arouse resistance.

And the emperor spoke clearly.

If there is resistance and riots, then directly suppress them.

There is only one requirement, and this place must be completely turned into the land of the Han family.

Also in Haokand, Zuo Menggeng met Liang Yue.

This pair of old enemies was the first time in his life.

Being brought in front of Zuo Menggeng, Liang Yue was in a daze.

Originally, in his mind, because of hatred, he always looked down upon Zuo Menggeng.

Hearing that Zuo Menggeng was young, he thought he was a poor-faced scholar.

At this moment, seeing Zuo Menggeng's stalwart stature face to face, Liang Yue finally understood why Xu Yaqing was so afraid of this person.

"You're going to kill me?"

The atmosphere is not harmonious.

Zuo Menggeng poured him tea.

"If you want to kill you, there are more opportunities, so wait until today?"

Liang Yue's face was slightly slow, and he was still authentic: "Who knows that you are inviting people to buy people?"

Zuo Menggeng knew that he was angry in his heart, so he didn't care.

"Even if I really kill you, the Liang army will not collapse."

Liang Yue was silent, and suddenly pointed at Jiang Chaoyun and Zhao Silie.

"Aren't they two of yours too?"

Jiang Chaoyun and Zhao Silie touched their noses but did not speak.

Zuo Menggeng smiled.

"Or do you think that such a powerful figure can emerge from the peasant army?"

He readily admitted.

Liang Yue is not a fool.

Fighting side by side for so many years, he has seen the rise of Jiang Chaoyun and Zhao Silie.

In the beginning, he was happy because he had such a caring and capable brother, but many incidents later seemed weird, and he couldn't help but suspect.

Originally, he thought that Jiang Chaoyun and Zhao Silie were sent by Zuo Menggeng to plot against him, but as time went by, he found that these two people were always working hard to help him fight, and completely obeyed his orders.

Later, after the Liang army and the empire reached an agreement, Liang Yue actually understood that Zuo Menggeng really had no intention of harming him after the westward march was effectively guaranteed.

The tragedy that happened in Linqing back then had nothing to do with Zuo Menggeng.

After all, Zuo Menggeng was only 14 years old at the time, and he was not yet able to handle housework.

Most importantly, Zuo Menggeng was not at home at the time.

But the tragic death of the whole family has always been simmering in Liang Yue's stomach. Today, in person, he finally had a chance to vent his anger.

"Let me beat you up, and what happened back then will be over."

Facing his bull's eye, Zuo Menggeng grinned.

"You can't beat me, you can't even beat Xu Yaqing."

Liang Yue's dusty face turned red immediately, but he was also helpless.

It is a fact that he can't beat Xu Yaqing, and Xu Yaqing really can't beat Zuo Menggeng.

This made him sigh with emotion.

Why in this world is someone so omnipotent?
When Zuo Menggeng saw Liang Yue, of course he wasn't teasing him.

"It's not a solution to worry about the past all the time, and I can't take my own head to avenge you. How about this, I will give you a big compensation."

He asked for a map, pointing to the vast plain east of the Dnieper River.

"Here, you come down, you are allowed to build your own country, and the empire provides you with military protection."

Liang Yue paused, not hiding the astonishment on his face.

Now that the situation has progressed, in fact, he is also silently thinking about his future whereabouts.

Even if Zuo Menggeng had no intention of killing him, the entire empire would not tolerate him.

This has nothing to do with good or bad. As a complete political system, the empire obviously has no alternative living space.

But Zuo Menggeng gave a solution.

Liang Yue was allowed to lead his Liang army to establish a country independently, and he was able to get the protection of the empire.

Jianguo is king!
Liang Yue realized that Zuo Menggeng's proposal was really sincere.

"what do I need to do?"

It is convenient for wise men to talk.

"At present, the empire is at war with Russia. Our goal is to reach the Volga River and the Ural Mountains, and use the terrain here to establish the empire's border. But if the vast and fertile land on the east bank of the Dnieper River is occupied by the Russians, give them For a certain period of time, it will definitely threaten the security of the empire’s western front. The empire needs to establish a buffer zone here to restrain the Russians.”

Clearly, clearly.

This made Liang Yue unable to say "no".

After all, apart from Zuo Menggeng, I am afraid that no one in this world can give him such a big benefit.

"It's a word."

Zuo Menggeng made another explanation.

"The Torghut tribe of Oirat Mongolia couldn't compete with the Junggar tribe and the Heshuote tribe at the beginning, so they moved here. At present, they are being eroded by the Russians. After you pass, you can incorporate the Torghut tribe and strengthen your own strength. .When you gain a firm foothold there, the empire will aid you in the arsenal and allow you to make your own weapons."

"The kind used by the Wehrmacht?"

Liang Yue's heart skipped a beat.

"Yes." (End of this chapter)
