Qing Dynasty: After reading my heart, Kangxi and the Nine Dragons are united

Chapter 325 Who Has the Greatest Contribution



Chapter 325 Who Has the Greatest Contribution

But the eldest prince used this trick to occupy his old nest, so how could he allow himself to fall into the same trap?

That must not be possible!

He even sharpened his knife, waiting for the enemy to make this move.

Thank you Fourth Prince for your dedication.

The omnipresent stickmen are really good at gathering intelligence and can always obtain the most complete and accurate intelligence in the shortest time.

As a result, as soon as Tsewang Arabtana's plan was finalized, it quickly reached the ears of the eldest prince.

Hahahaha.

The eldest prince was delighted: "I originally thought that I could only hold the rear and let the Fourteenth Prince and the others show off their talents. I never thought that I would become a soft persimmon and be squeezed by Tsewang Arabtan himself!"

"Who says it's not?"

The Sixteenth Prince smiled and said, "I originally thought that taking down the enemy's base camp was the greatest achievement of this time. I never thought that Tsewang Arabtan would be willing to give me another chance!"

"We have to think about this carefully and make sure we don't let the big fish slip away."

They were originally secretive and could not bring many people across the mountains and hills. Along the way, they divided their troops and stationed them in Yili, Dongturgut and Hotan. Their manpower was further reduced, and they were not enough to deal with the elite troops led by Tsewang Arabtan himself?

Ha ha.

If there are not enough people, we can make up for it with equipment!

Since they set out on the expedition, Eighteenth Brother and Dai Zi have not worked in vain. As early as last winter, the new artillery with greater lethality, longer range and better accuracy was declared a success.

The Ministry of War, the Ministry of Works, the Imperial Household Department, the Imperial Household Department and other departments worked together and overtime to produce 20 cannons, which were delivered to the front line one after another.

In order to prevent the advantage from being too overwhelming and causing Tsewang Arabtan to become afraid, the peak confrontation was changed into guerrilla warfare to increase the difficulty of annihilation.

It was also to prevent Tsarist Russia from daring to move forward when it saw that things were not going well.

These secret weapons are all kept safely by the eldest prince, and they are just right for making Tsewang Arabtan tremble in fear.

But he had a hidden weapon and was confident, so Fu Ning'an didn't dare let him fight against a larger force with a smaller one!

What if something happens...

Even if he completely destroyed the Dzungar Khanate, he would still have to be beheaded and brought to Your Majesty, right?

For the sake of his own safety and the safety of his nine clans, Fu Ning'an sent the Thirteenth Prince and his grain transport team members who were delivering military supplies.

Who would have thought that logistics personnel could also make great contributions?

According to the recollections of those involved, Tsewang Arabtan led his men to make a detour that day, trying to recapture Yili and catch the eldest prince off guard. As a result, the eldest prince, who was supposed to be near Urumqi according to their intelligence, suddenly appeared like a god.

There was a burst of artillery attack.

The loud noise and fierce firepower frightened Tsewang Arabtan, who had always been quite proud of this aspect.

The order to retreat has just been given, and we are prepared to take the approach of "while the green mountains remain, there is less fear of running out of firewood".

Who would have thought that before the retreat horn was sounded, the Thirteenth Prince would rush out from the side?

The man was wearing golden armor and leading the way.

Without saying a word, he raised his gun and shot at Tsewang Arabtan. If the guards around him had not reacted quickly and were loyal enough, this grassland leader would have died on the spot.

Even so, he still suffered heavy casualties and had to flee in a panic with only a few hundred cavalrymen.

When the news reached the capital, Emperor Kangxi was delighted.

The Fourth Prince was even more pleased: "Great, great! Thirteenth Brother has always been interested in the battlefield, and has aspired to be a mighty general since he was a child. Now that he has achieved such a great feat on the battlefield for the first time, he has finally gotten what he wanted!"

Although he did not kill Tsewang Arabtan directly, he was beaten like a stray dog.

Whenever anyone mentions him, they will surely say how powerful the Thirteenth Master is.

But the eldest prince sent a letter over a long distance, and the person he praised the most was his eighteenth brother, saying that he was the one who made the greatest contribution and was the number one hero.

"I?"

Yinzhen pointed at himself in shock and said, "I haven't even been to the front line, so what contribution can I make? It can't be that I was so pious when I prayed to the Buddha that the Qing soldiers were assisted by God, right?"

"Hahaha, just kidding, just kidding."

But Kangxi looked serious, and obviously had no intention of joking with him: "I also think Baoqing's words are quite reasonable. If you hadn't insisted on making this heavy artillery against all odds, how could we have such an overwhelming victory?"

"Even your Thirteenth Brother was able to go to the northwest because of your and Mr. Huang's anti-Ming activities."

And there is Ke Jing.

If she couldn't hear the little guy's thoughts, if she didn't know how powerful and loyal she was from your thoughts, she would never have appeared on the battlefield.

Adding together all these reasons that can and cannot be said, Kangxi came to the same conclusion as his eldest son: the war situation in the northwest was very good, and it was all thanks to his son, his assistant.

The prince and others also agreed.

Yinzhen was so shocked that his jaw almost dislocated again: "Oh my god, father Kangxi favors me to such an extent that my brothers are so crazy that they ignore the facts just to flatter him?"

[I haven't even been on the battlefield for a single day, but I'm actually on the first page of the merit book?!]

Gee tut.

The whole room of young and old is going crazy, and he can't just join in the fun.

Otherwise, if a sincere child comes and exposes the emperor’s new clothes, where will he find clothes to cover his shame?

Yinxuan frowned and his alertness was at its highest level.

Kangxi had no choice but to talk about the outstanding contributions made by firearms in this northwestern battlefield.

He even did not hesitate to expose his own scars, recalling his uncle Tong Guogang who was killed by Galdan with a single shot: "If our Qing Dynasty had the current level of firearms, I would have marched straight to Huanglong and fought all the way to Yili, and there would be no way Tsewang Arabtan would have made a comeback."

Who said no!

Several princes echoed the sentiment, expressing regret for that day and praising the present, saying that Little Eighteen had made a huge contribution.

Yinxuan: ???

"No, I just had a few verbal battles with the court officials and insisted on the necessity of firearms research. What kind of merit is that? The most important thing is that the second brother of the crown prince rehabilitated Mr. Dai and re-employed him. Isn't it that Mr. Dai worked diligently and repeatedly to the point of exhaustion?"

"And advanced firearms don't mean everything is fine. Khan Amaken also sent out those expensive steel beasts. In addition, the frontline generals' clever command and the soldiers' brave fighting finally won the current victory..."

Yinxuan counted on his fingers and praised the people involved, refusing to take credit for anything that did not belong to him.

The more he acted like this, the more guilty and distressed Kangxi, the other princes, Baotai and Hongxi felt.

After all, children don’t know, but they, the adults, know!

If he, the trapped dragon, had not broken free and successfully awakened to become the auxiliary star of the Qing Dynasty, according to the original historical line, the eldest brother would have been imprisoned and the crown prince would be on the verge of collapse. The civil and military ministers each took sides, the trend of fighting for the throne gradually took shape, and the internal struggle lasting more than ten years began. How could there be such prosperity today?
