Chapter 419: Died of dysentery

419th died of dysentery

From 1309 to 1319, Wei Dongsheng expanded his army through war and raising war, driving the Eight Banners of Java to gradually attack Manchu Boyi.

From 1319 to 1322, Wei Dongsheng sent his troops westward again, attacking the Sunda Kingdom of West Java, and unifying Java in general.

It seems easy to say, but the process is quite difficult.

Taking strategy games such as Europa Universalis 4 as an example, players can accurately know the approximate combat effectiveness of a troop, and matchlock troops of the same size can always easily annihilate conventional medieval cold weapons troops. In actual warfare, the combat effectiveness of an army is often in a fog that cannot be grasped. Not only is it difficult for Wei Dongsheng to ascertain the actual morale and training level of an army, but even the exact number of an army cannot be understood—who knows if they are empty. What's the salary? Many battles that Wei Dongsheng thought must be won, the Eight Banners of Java failed to return; of course, there are some surprises. Certain military geniuses often stage shocking reversals in desperate situations, and made even Wei Dongsheng's jaw-dropping credit.

Where does Wei Dongsheng win?

Wei Dongsheng wins in the sugar industry chain, and the continuous huge profits can support the war.

Wei Dongsheng won the centralization, although it was just a colonial rule similar to the Manchu-Qing style, and even though there were some Java indigenous vassals like Wu Sangui, Shang Kexi, and Geng Jingzhong in the corner, the political system of the Shunta Kingdom was far stronger than that of Jie. The Majapahit Kingdom between the tribal alliance and tribal confederation. With the same population and the same resources, the Shunta Kingdom was always able to squeeze out more human and material resources, and the snake swallow symbolized the island of Java.

From 1322 to 1328, Wei Dongsheng relied on the human resources of Java Island to conquer the Southeast Asian Islands gradually.

As we all know, Java Island is the main population gathering place in Southeast Asia. In the real world, in terms of area, Java Island is only the fifth largest island in Indonesia, but it has half of the country's population, and it is absolutely dominant politically and economically. Compared with Java Island, the development of other islands in Southeast Asia is more difficult, and the cost of centralized rule is incredibly high. Therefore, after Wei Dongsheng had the base camp on Java Island, he implemented the strategy of the Dutch East India Company on other islands according to local conditions, separated the links between the Nanyang Islands with the thinking of maritime hegemony, and maintained the absolute advantage of the Shunta Kingdom over the indigenous regimes of each island.

It was only after Wei Dongsheng ruled Nanyang that he set his sights on the Mengyuan continent.

In terms of cultural belonging and population advantages, Wei Dongsheng has the need to replace them. However, Mengyuan is not a small indigenous country like the Manchurian Boyi or the Sundanese Kingdom. Take Laden Jialiang, the first king of Manchubai Yi, as an example. He had to kneel and lick the vigilant conspiracy of lowering the Yuan soldiers to win in the face of a mere Meng Yuan division.

After the Meng Yuan captured the Central Plains, the government was in chaos. From 1297 to 1328, when Wei Dongsheng was reincarnated, he has quickly replaced Tiemuer, Haishan, Ayuli Bada, Shude Bastab, Yasun Tiemuer, and Asoke. Eight, Tu Tie Mu'er and other emperors. In spite of the endless struggles for power in the Mongol and Yuan dynasties, and despite the frequent civil upheavals in the Meng Yuan provinces, it is still a behemoth in the eyes of the people of the Shunta Kingdom.

Furthermore, because of the restriction of "prohibition of dissemination of social sciences and natural sciences", the political system of the Shunta Kingdom is similar to the traditional feudal dynasty of Song and Yuan Dynasties. Not only does the science and technology tree resemble or be slightly lower than the Mongolian Yuan, the cavalry is even weaker. People are desperate.

Even if the Shunta Kingdom has dominated Nanyang, the senior leaders of the Shunta Kingdom have no confidence to complete the anti-Yuan cause.

At the same time, the Nanyang Tang people did not have the ambition to recover the Central Plains. Take the early power minister Yang Xinning as an example. In those years when he first fled to Java, he named the eldest son Yang Beiwang, the second son Yang Futu, and the eldest daughter Yang Niansong. Looking north again, Futu, and Nian Song, Yang Xinning's mind can be imagined. But after more than ten years in Java, when the last daughter Yang Nianan was born, her name had nothing to do with the feelings of her family and country. As early as that time, Yang Xinning no longer dreamed of opposing the Yuan Dynasty and reverting to the Song Dynasty, but began to pursue a stable life like other Southern Song survivors.

As the survivors of the Southern Song Dynasty, they are more familiar with the vast land and resources of the Central Plains provinces and the nightmare of the Mongolian Yuan cavalry than the Nanyang natives, and they are more afraid of the comprehensive strength of the Mongolian Yuan than the natives. Rather than risking his life to challenge Meng Yuan to follow in the Southern Song Dynasty, it is better to be a rich man in Nanyang with peace of mind.

Such conservative thinking is almost the common aspiration of all Chinese ethnic groups.

Fortunately, the Shunta Kingdom is an autocratic feudal dynasty, and Wei Dongsheng is a generation of Ming emperors comparable to the Qin Emperor and Hanwu who led the Shunta Kingdom to dominate Nanyang in all battles. Regardless of the Nanyang indigenous towns or the civil servants and generals of the Shunta Kingdom, they did not dare to resist Wei Dongsheng's Northern Expedition resolution. Wei Dongsheng said that if you look north to the Central Plains, the Shunta Kingdom must expand to the Central Plains.

Of course, considering that the Nanyang Tang people hated and feared the Meng Yuan iron cavalry, Wei Dongsheng must carefully arrange the Northern Expedition.

From 1328 to 1333, the Kingdom of Shunta opened up the East Asian business network and expanded the land of Ryukyu (Taiwan) to establish a forward base.

From 1333 to 1238, Wei Dongsheng tilted resources to build the Ryukyu Battalion into a super-large military base.

In 1340, Wei Dongsheng ordered the prince to supervise the island of Java and lead the main force to station in Ryukyu.

In 1341, Wei Dongsheng announced the abandonment of the name of Shun Pagoda and built Shuo as Xia. Not long after, Wei Dongsheng sent troops to capture the Penghu Islands and occupied Quanzhou, officially launching the strategy of destroying Yuan. Contrary to Wei Dong’s business expectations, in 1341, ten years before the Red Turban uprising, the Yuan soldiers’ combat effectiveness had fallen into disrepair, and Xia Bing could almost easily traverse the coastal provinces. It was not until Meng Yuan mobilized reinforcements that Yuan soldiers blocked Xia Bing's front in the south of the Yangtze River.

Because there is no technology to crush the advantage, because there is no loyalty to lock the advantage, Wei Dongsheng's combat strategy is very cautious. Seeing the stalemate on the front line, Wei Dongsheng immediately ordered Xia Bing to use the Yangtze River and the sea to build a defense system, and to allocate some energy to clean up potential hidden dangers in the liberated areas.

Considering that the current technology tree does not have an industrial foundation, Wei Dongsheng did not chant the slogan "Take the local tyrants and divide the fields". He merely used the banner of "anti-Yuan" to purge the local tyrants and evil gentry in the conquered areas. Wei Dongsheng first asked these landlords to draw a clear line from the Mengyuan Yuan and fulfill their national liberation obligations such as reclaiming land and joining the army. If he dared to hesitate, he would immediately send troops to destroy his family, confiscated all his land and floating wealth, and transferred to Nanyang Plantation for hard work; After the rectification, it was a persistent and harsh speech control. Who would dare to say a good word from the Mongolian and Yuan court, immediately confiscated the land and exiled to Nanyang.

The Ming-Yuan Revolution in the real world was influenced by the elite British policy of uniting the Han nationality between the Mongyuan and Yuan dynasties. Many gentry were greedy for the local privileges of the Mongol and Yuan dynasties. Even the many high-ranking officials in the early Ming Dynasty were used to criticizing the Red Scarf soldiers who came from the same origin as Zhu Yuanzhang because of the conflicts during the confluence with the squires and warlords in the Mongol and Yuan dynasties. Various speeches directly or indirectly miss the Mengyuan dynasty.

Wei Dongsheng's purge policy destroyed the economic foundation of the squire's nostalgia for the Meng Yuan thought.

A large number of landlords and local tyrants who made their fortunes because of the Meng Yuan national policy have become victims of the national liberation banner. They dare to say a good word from Meng Yuan or be hostile to the Wei Xia regime and claim to be the people of the Yuan Dynasty. It will also be a reward for Wei Dongsheng's kindness and meritorious service. Although these policies have affected the speed of the Northern Expedition to a certain extent, they can ensure that the recruits in the nationally liberated areas are united with Wei Dongsheng and thus form a stable base.

In 1344, Wei Dongsheng calmly pushed the front line to the Huai River defense line.

In 1345, Wei Dongsheng went up along the river and captured the two lakes.

At the end of 1347, Wei Dongsheng launched the Northern Expedition, and Meng Yuan quickly defeated unexpectedly. Xia Bing captured Shandong and Henan in just three months. Seeing that everything is going well, Wei Dongsheng personally arrived at Bianliang, the old capital of Zhao Song, to discuss the detailed arrangements for the capture of Hebei and Yuanda Capital in World War I.

At this point, Meng Yuan has entered the countdown to extinction.

Xia Bing, who is scheduled to officially march north on August 14, will be able to replace the Zhu Ming Dynasty in the real world and become the new dynasty that will end the rule of the Yuan Dynasty.

Unexpectedly, the accident happened suddenly.

At the end of July, Wei Dongsheng suddenly had abdominal pain, and then he had pus and blood.

At the critical moment of defeating Meng Yuan, Wei Dongsheng suddenly got dysentery.

What's more difficult is that the doctor's treatment was ineffective, and Wei Dongsheng's condition got worse and worse, so that he was unconscious after more than ten days.

On August 8, 1348, Wei Dongsheng died of dysentery at the age of 69.

When Hun Hun Ou regained consciousness, Wei Dongsheng had already returned to the real world.

The real world is October 27, 2016. Wei Dongsheng spent 51 years in a different time and space six hundred years ago. He led the 10,000-scale Shunta Kingdom to conquer the South and the North. He not only established the maritime hegemony to dominate the South Seas, but also almost overthrew the Mongolian rule more than ten years in advance. Wei Dongsheng couldn't help feeling the mystery of time in the 51 years of impassioned time and space, compared with the 51 days of calm in the real world.

Thinking of 51 years of impassionedness, Wei Dongsheng couldn't help but regret.

Wei Dongsheng suddenly passed away at a critical moment when the united forces went north to Yuan Capital. Life is really unpredictable!

There are many such cases in history.

I don't know how many heroes and heroes died before they were rewarded, regretting to miss the dawn of victory.

What would the Wei Xia Dynasty look like without Wei Dongsheng?

The sudden death of Wei Dongsheng must have a serious impact on the strategy of the Northern Expedition Yuanda Capital, and the children may be caught in a vortex of fighting for power. What will the battle of Xia Yuan look like? After thinking about it for a moment, Wei Dongsheng dared not report optimism.

In order to avoid the competition between Yang Beiwang and Yang Futu among his heirs, Wei Dongsheng has many detailed regulations on the succession to the throne. Who should succeed the emperor if he died during the Northern Expedition? If the first successor dies, who will be the second and third successor, Wei Dongsheng has already announced the world.

However, the rules are dead, and people live.

Who can guarantee that those civil servants and generals will honestly obey Wei Dongsheng's will?

What kind of emperor?

The ears of strong soldiers and horses!

Just like Zhu Di will not respect Zhu Yuanzhang's death, once the critical moment comes, who will respect the dead Wei Dongsheng?
