Chapter 576 Three Major Processes
In Ning Yu's thinking, the garrison of troops on the grassland and the suppression and division of the various tribes on the grassland are actually a temporary process. This is also the method used by previous dynasties, but this method will decline with the decline of the empire's strength. In the end, Agility is completely lost, so it cannot last.

Even from the current point of view, the combat effectiveness of the Fuhan army far exceeds that of the grassland tribes, but it is difficult to change this fact. After all, when time stretches to a certain scale, these gaps will be completely flattened by time.

Ning Yu raised his second finger very calmly, and said softly: "The second stage is not only to enter the grassland, but to become a part of the grassland, to be able to truly control the grassland, and in order to complete this step, we It takes a long time to operate, and the resources that need to be invested are also the largest period—in my opinion, it can still be divided into several steps.”

Everyone couldn't help holding their breath. Although what the emperor said now seems to be far away, it is enough to make people look forward to it.

"In my opinion, to become a part of the grassland means that we need to have a real core force in the grassland and change the local population structure. Therefore, I plan to follow the old example of Manchuria and relocate landless farmers, beggars and idlers in various provinces. Armed pastures were built on the grasslands and incorporated into the Dudu government system, becoming a force that Chu could truly rely on."

After saying this, Sun Jiagan nodded immediately. In fact, he didn't particularly agree with Ning Yu's first step, because he could see from his eyes that the strategy was not sustainable, and now he heard the emperor's words. But he couldn't help admiring: "Your Majesty's words are very true. I still understand the various ministries of the grassland, and I understand the nature of their generation. You must not trust too much. You must have your own people in the grassland."

As for the system of armed farms, no one has the slightest opinion, because although this policy has been implemented in Manchuria for a short time, it has already shown considerable results.

Since Ningchu occupied Manchuria, the original large-scale wars have naturally disappeared completely, but the small-scale harassment against the Fuhan army has existed for a long time, such as those remnant soldiers of the Eight Banners who fled into the forest, and those who were originally in the forest. The Jurchens who were born in the Han Dynasty all colluded together and launched an attack on the Fuhan army, and even plundered the people.

It is against this background that the armed farms that many people did not understand before have exerted their power. These armed farms are built according to local conditions. The large ones have [-] households, and the small ones have [-] households. People, each of which can have at least one person, that is, each farm has at least [-] to [-] armed militias, and in extreme cases, this number can even be doubled.

Although these armed militias are civilians in essence, they will also be included in the management of the Privy Council. For example, each province will set up a Dudu Mansion, and the militia will be under the jurisdiction of the Dudu Mansion, and the Dudu Mansion will issue muskets eliminated by the Han army. Bayonets, and regular training is arranged, and the officers in the militia are also active-duty officers, so the combat effectiveness is guaranteed to the greatest extent.

Of course, it is precisely because of the existence of this system that the remnants of the Eight Banners remnants scattered in the old forests in the northeast have never been able to pose too much threat, and even began to die out gradually. Therefore, Ning Yu naturally wants to Take advantage.

Ning Yu said softly: "The armed ranch follows the old farm practice, divides the ranch by every hundred households, builds settlement fortresses and silos, brings them into the management of the provincial capitals of the grassland, and conducts regular armed training. I plan to first During the first five-year plan, 30 people will be relocated to the grasslands, and within the second five-year plan, 70 people will be relocated to the grasslands, and a total of 100 million people will be relocated to the grasslands.”

It takes ten years to organize 100 million people to settle on the grasslands, which is naturally a very large project, but what is reflected behind this matter is a country's organizational and production capabilities, and it is natural to want to do it well. It's easy, but once it's done, the rewards are huge.

Because according to the current method of one household with five members, 100 million people can be divided into at least 20 households, and each household with 20 households sends one soldier, and can get 20 armed militiamen. You can get 40 armed militiamen.

With these 40 armed militiamen, it is no longer possible for the grassland to separate from China. Even if the Ningchu Dynasty collapses, the grassland will always be an inseparable part of the entire Chinese civilization circle.

By this time, everyone had been shocked by the emperor's courage, but fortunately there were old Manchurian practices in front of them, so they were not particularly surprised. Only Chen Jingsheng, the deputy director of the General Affairs Department of the Ministry of Finance, after some calculations, was unimpressed. I let out a sigh of relief, because according to the current calculation, I am afraid that the financial expenditure in the next ten years will reach a new high.

For such an emperor in front of the booth, the financial income that was already high in the past seems to be somewhat insufficient now.

Ning Yu said softly: "While changing the local population structure, I thought it was necessary to lay roads, especially the railway from the capital to Mongolia, which will become a key project. Only with the support of the railway can the immigration plan be carried out smoothly. "

"With the people and roads, the industry is the last thing. Of course, this industry is not forced to move out of thin air, but to develop animal husbandry, wool weaving industry, mining industry and related handicraft industries according to the characteristics of the grassland. With these Only then can we get the benefits of the grassland from the grassland."

Controlling the grassland was almost a loss-making business for all dynasties in the past, because the Central Plains dynasty could not obtain more benefits from the grassland at all, and it could not fill the huge hole in the military, resulting in long-term financial imbalances.

For Ning Yu, he is also unwilling to throw money into the water day after day, and seeking interests on the grassland has become a very critical point, and with these interests bound, the cabinet can also be willing to carry out Large-scale investment of capital and manpower.

It can be said that at this point, everyone has been completely silent. From the bottom of their hearts, they feel that the implementability of this policy is very high, and the possibility of success is also very high. If they are really determined to complete it, It only takes a maximum of 20 years, and the grassland will no longer be a problem for China.

Ning Zhongjing couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Your Majesty's words really embarrass me. If this strategy can be carried out smoothly, my Great Chu can be completely done once and for all as Your Majesty said!"

"No, it's the last stage before it's done once and for all."

Ning Yu said with emotion: "Our first stage is to enter the grassland, the second stage is to become a part of the grassland, and the third stage is to make the grassland completely become a part of the Great Chu, unite all parties, and begin to become the leader of the Great Chu." help."

Speaking of this, Ning Yu couldn't help but feel a little lost. He murmured: "If the first stage only takes three years, the second stage takes 20 years, then the third stage will take a hundred years or even longer." time."

"Also ask Your Majesty to enlighten me."

Ning Zhongjing, Sun Jiagan, and Chen Jingsheng deeply bowed and saluted. They finally understood the meaning of the emperor's actions today. With such a program of action, the future grassland policy will have a more mature logic of action. It is an excellent opportunity to change the status quo of the grassland.

Ning Yu smiled lightly, and finally raised his third finger. He looked around the crowd with a radiant look.

"The third step is to completely integrate and realize cultural identity. We need to export our culture to the grassland tribes, use education to unify the language, change customs and customs, and completely realize the same language and the same species."

"After a few generations, no matter where they go on the grassland, they will be able to think from the bottom of their hearts that they are a member of the Great Chu, and then the grassland will be completely a member of the Great Chu. It will become a burden to the Great Chu, but it will become a boost to the empire."

Speaking of this, Ning Yu sighed: "Of course, this is destined to be a very long process, and we need to unswervingly implement this policy, but once we can succeed, we will not only get the present things. thing."

"The ministers are willing to follow His Majesty and practice the great cause!"

Everyone bowed deeply, and there was a little hope for the future in their eyes. Perhaps as long as this major event can be completed, it will naturally be famous in history.

In October, under the leadership of Dong Ce, the [-]-strong Western Expeditionary Army of the Fuhan Army marched westward along the direction in which Zhungeer came. They will arrive in Altay and Burqin before the arrival of this winter. And other places, in order to cooperate with the West Route Army in the direction of Gansu, to carry out a pincer attack on the Goer Khanate.

However, the house leak happened to rain overnight. At this fatal time, the governor of East Siberia, Shaliyev, sent Russian general He Gewen to lead a lieutenant colonel to lead 1000 Russian troops into the Irtysh River and directly captured Boledi. Er, captured more than [-] people from the Zhungeer Army along the way, and moved towards the direction of Talbahatai.

Although the Russians experienced a disastrous defeat in the Battle of Yamysh Lake, their strength in Central Asia did not suffer much damage, such as Krasnoyarsk and Tomsk in the north of the Junggar Khanate pastureland. On the front line of Omsk and Omsk, Russia's military strength continued to increase, and even the local Brut people were forced to move westward to the shores of Lake Issyk-Kul in the south of Lake Balkhash, not daring to cross Lake Balkhash.

But before that, due to the success of Earl Sara Wula in East Asia, Empress Ekaterina at the time paid attention to it, and sent more than [-] reinforcements to Siberia, some of them took advantage of Tseng Allah Butan chose to re-enter the Yamysh Lake area to establish a military fortress when he invaded the three parts of Khalkha, and went up the Irtysh River to connect them as the Irtysh Fortress Line.

Therefore, the 1000 Russian troops led by Lieutenant Colonel He Gewen were this part of the army. After they entered Boregil, they immediately frightened the high-level Junggar Khanate who was on the verge of civil strife, because according to Talba Calculating the distance between Hatai and Gulza, after the three thousand Russian troops captured Gulza, it would only take a few more days before they could reach the city of Gulza. The Geer army only has more than [-] people, and it is difficult to defend Gulza under the Russian attack.

Therefore, the top officials of the Jungar Khanate quickly dispatched envoys to Hami's little Cering and Getze who had fled to Khobdor, hoping that they could work together to wipe out the three thousand Russian troops and save the endangered Jungar Khan country.

When the letter of request for help arrived in Hami, November quietly passed by. At this time, Xiao Celing Dunduobu, who received the letter of request for help, was caught in a dilemma, because the West Route Army in Shaanxi-Gansu also began to move. , [-] troops have assembled in Red Willow Garden, only one day's journey away from Xingxing Gorge.

"Two sharp knives, one in front and one in the back, but I only have 1 people in my hands now, and there are [-] weak Han Chinese."

When facing this situation, Xiao Celing Dunduobu, no matter how much he wanted to sweat profusely, he was splashed with cold water on his head, because no matter what he did, it seemed that there would be great omissions.

If he chooses to retreat to Guleza, he will definitely give up Xingxing Gorge. Let alone how far away the distance is, just say that the Fuhan army in the east will definitely not give up this precious opportunity. They will attack with all their strength. Under the circumstances, I am afraid that Hami, Turpan, and Urumqi will not be safe, and sooner or later they will come to Gulezha. It is nothing more than the difference between early death or late death.

However, if Xiaoce Lingdun Duobu sticks to the Xingxing Gorge, the Fuhan army will definitely not be able to pass through this place in a short time, but this will put Guleza in a crisis of being attacked by the Russians. Although there is still a Gece, but If Getze blocked the Russians, then he, little Celing, would have a question mark if he wanted to become a profuse sweater.

That is to say, there are two choices in front of Xiao Ce Ling Dunduobu, whether to die as a profuse sweat, or to watch others die as a profuse sweat, and this choice seems to him It's not hard to choose either.

"General Nian, Xingxing Gorge will be handed over to you, we must stop the Fuhan army!"

Little Celing finally made a choice. He called Nian Gengyao to the government office, and asked him earnestly, but his tone was a little weak. It was obvious that he was not that optimistic about Nian Gengyao's defeated army.But right now, there is no other choice, so Xiao Celing can only forcefully comfort himself.

At this time, Nian Gengyao's face was flushed. In the past period of time, he received some supplies supported by Xiao Celing, including some grains that were not enough for the winter, plus more than 2000 catties of gunpowder, And hundreds of Erut muskets, and even four small cannons, it is not bad at this time.

Of course, Nian Gengyao was not dazed by these things, he was very clear about Xiao Celing's intentions, so he also performed a full range of performances, only to see him knelt down again, his words as firm as iron.

"Great Khan, the heart of the last general can show the sun and the moon. This time, he will stick to Xingxing Gorge and never let the Fuhan army pass here. After the Khan drives out the Raksha people, he can officially become a Khan in Guleza as soon as possible! "
