Mixed with salted fish in Hongwudang

Chapter 549 Who cares about your cattle and sheep?

The sudden situation in the sweat tent frightened them. It wasn't because they were timid, it was because Mahamu was too fast and didn't give them time to react!

After Mahamu dared to question the leader of Ugqihashha, he immediately glanced at the crowd with cold eyes, and then asked in a deep voice.

"Who else dares to question!"

Everyone dodged their eyes when they heard the words, not daring to look at this guy.Those who were timid even lowered their heads directly, not even daring to look at him, for fear of being picked up by this guy and chopped up like a chicken.

Seeing that Mahamu dealt with the questioner neatly, Ugqihashha secretly gave him a look of approval.

The future of this child is limitless!
If the old man's guess is correct, the future glory of Dayuan will depend on this son!

Before this, Ugqihashha had always used Mahamu as a hostage.Although he reused Mahamu many times, he was just using it.

But after this series of events, Ugzihashha suddenly had the idea of ​​cherishing talents.He thought that after a hundred years, he would hand over the power of Dayuan to Mahamu, so as to leave a trace of vitality for Dayuan.

Seeing that the people in Khan's tent had been intimidated, Ugzihashha immediately reprimanded Mahamu in a pretentious manner.

"Mahamu, you are so brave!"

"All the guests who came here today are Ben Khan's guests. How dare you execute yourself without obeying Ben Khan's order?"

Hearing this, Mahamu knelt down on one knee very cooperatively.

"My minister is convicted, please punish the Prime Minister!"

"What you committed today is a capital crime!"

Wugeqihashiha raised his mouth tentatively, but seeing that no one spoke to Khan's tent, he hurriedly changed his words to make amends.

"But Ben Khan thinks that you are young and your father is away working hard for our Yuan, so Ben Khan will spare your life for the time being!"

"But capital crimes can be forgiven, living crimes are hard to forgive!"

"Come on, drag Mahamu out and beat him with twenty lashes!"

Ugzihashha's "heavy beating" made the faces of the people in the Khan tent twitch. If he and Mahamu were not wearing a pair of pants, they wouldn't believe it if they were beaten to death!
Not long after, Mahamu was beaten to the brink of death and carried up. Seeing the bloody whip wounds, the resentment in their hearts was somewhat reduced.

"The ministers are willing to obey the orders of the Khan!"

After Wugeqihashiha and Mahamu sang this set of double reeds, they finally surrendered the leaders of the tribes on the grassland.Even if they are slightly dissatisfied, they can take it easy.

However, after Ugzihashha became Beiyuan Khan, his first order shocked everyone.

"Since you are willing to regard me as Khan, then I will temporarily replace Khan to exercise the power of Khan!"

"Presumably everyone knows what kind of challenges our Da Yuan is facing now, and also knows that with our own strength, we are not at all Da Ming's opponents."

"Therefore, Ben Khan has a proposal, please refer to it together."

"Despite the orders of the Great Khan, we will never refuse to obey!"

"No no no!"

"Ben Khan is by no means a dogmatic person. If he says it is a discussion, he will discuss it. He has absolutely no intention of being polite to you."

"What I mean is, let's pretend to negotiate peace with Daming first, and wait until the reinforcements from the other three Khanates arrive, then we will fight to the death with Daming!"

"This……"

The people in the Khan's tent were stunned when they heard this. They never expected that the first national policy formulated by Ugzihashha after he became the Great Khan was to negotiate peace with Daming!

"Dare to ask the Great Khan, how do you plan to negotiate a peace?"

"A friend of equals, or paying tribute?"

This question can be regarded as asking the key point, and it will not be possible to straighten Ugqihashha.

Originally, he wanted to confuse this issue, and wait until he fooled everyone into thinking about how to negotiate a peace.But now that someone asked on the spot, he was embarrassed to avoid it.

"How do you guys feel?"

Although Bei Yuan fled Mobei far away and his strength was not as good as before, many tribal leaders were still full of blood.Hearing Ugzihashha's question, he expressed angrily on the spot.

"No peace negotiation!"

"Even if it's a peace negotiation, we need an alliance of brothers and friends of equals, otherwise we will lose face to our ancestors!"

"Anda is right, we are the descendants of Genghis Khan, how can we pay tribute to Ming Dynasty!"

Hearing the indignation of the crowd, Ugzihashha became even more entangled in his heart.

To be honest, he wanted to pay tribute.

If Daming can accept it, he even wants to make a peace treaty with Daming directly.

But now seeing the intense reaction of the crowd, he didn't know what to say for a while.

Ugqihashha subconsciously looked towards the corner of the tent, where Mahamu was supposed to be standing.It's just that Mahamu had just been carried down at this time, and there was no space there.

Ugqihashha sighed helplessly in his heart, if only Mahamu was there, he would definitely prepare enough ladders for himself.

Just when Ugzihashha was extremely bored, a strange face suddenly stood up.

"Lord Khan, I think you can negotiate a peace."

"Think about the Emperor Zhu Chongba of the Ming Dynasty, didn't he also accept our Dayuan's order and rewards, and he was a minister of our Dayuan?"

"Times have changed, and our Great Yuan is far worse than before. If we can't let go of our arrogance, how can we win the trust of Daming and make Daming believe that we intend to negotiate a peace?"

"Therefore, I feel that we might as well lower our stance and coax Daming to sign a peace treaty. After we get over this, we can beat Daming hard and restore the glory of our ancestors!"

Hearing this, Wugeqihashiha slapped his thigh excitedly.

"it is good!"

"So well said!"

"What's your name?"

"Back to the Khan, the humble Batura!"

"Your words won my heart deeply, and they are really old-fashioned words for seeking the country!"

"Everyone, we don't really want to negotiate peace with Daming, we just pretend to negotiate peace, why should we care about reputation?"

"As long as Haohai Dayu can convince the other three Khanates, let's gather the power of the four countries, not to mention defeating Ming Dynasty, even if we regain control of the Central Plains, we don't know, hahaha!"

The more Ugzihashha said, the happier he became, and everyone in the Khan's tent became happier too. Only a few old guys looked serious, unwilling to believe Ugzihashha's nonsense.

But they also know the current situation, and there really is no better way.

"Khan Shengming!"

"The ministers are willing to obey the orders of the Khan..."

……

Since Zhu Yunxi came to Guihua City, he has never been idle.

He first re-planned Guihua City, expanded the area of ​​Guihua City by ten times, and completely separated the military area from the living area.

After dealing with the matter of Guihua City, surrounded by an army of [-], he inspected the border of Ming Dynasty again, and went deep into the hinterland of the grassland, visited the settlements of the Mongolian Yuan people who surrendered to Ming Dynasty, enjoyed their singing and dancing, and tasted their beef and mutton .

Finally, I went to the Kulun area to check the local fortification situation.

In addition to doing these things, Zhu Yunxi also planned a railway running from east to west.

But for Daming at the moment, this railway can only be a plan, and it is uncertain when it will be completed.

Therefore, in the battle against Beiyuan, we still have to rely on the Ming cavalry.

After inspecting the grassland, Zhu Yunxi finally understood Lao Zhu a little bit.

The grassland is too big, even if Lao Zhu went north every year, it would be difficult to completely wipe out Bei Yuan.

Because no matter how many people you send, Bei Yuan can find a gap to escape.There are even fewer people sent, and you can't even touch Beiyuan's lair.

Through this inspection, Zhu Yunxi also felt unprecedented pressure.If he wanted to rule this vast area, it would be a serious test for him and the Ming Empire.

Relying on Mongolian people to govern Mongolia will inevitably lead to rebellion in the future.If it follows the method of the Han people, then the cost of governance will be too high, not to mention that it cannot be done with the current strength of Ming Dynasty, it will be difficult to do it even a few hundred years later.

Relatively speaking, the method of a certain Qing in the later generations is quite economical, but it is at the price of the princess's marriage. If it is placed in the Ming Dynasty, it will definitely be sprayed to death by the scholar-bureaucrats, and it will also encounter great resistance within the royal family.

"Zhang Aiqing, do you have any good ways to govern Meng Yuan?"

Zhang Zongjun has been troubled recently. Ever since he signed the decree on performing cleansing operations on foreign slaves, he himself has been impeached by hundreds of civil servants.

According to the practice of the Ming Dynasty, when an official is impeached, no matter whether he is wrong or right, he has to write a letter to resign, and stay at home to wait for His Majesty to deal with it.

However, he wrote the letter according to the usual practice, but he didn't respond at all as if there was no response.

Zhu Yunxi also sent someone to send a telegram to Lao Zhu to inquire, but still did not get any response.

Zhu Yunxi instinctively felt that Lao Zhu was angry with him, and deliberately used Zhang Zongjun to put pressure on him, so he didn't take it to heart.

Zhu Yunxi didn't care, but Zhang Zongjun didn't dare to take it seriously. He was worried all day long, for fear that he would be thrown out by Lao Zhu as a scapegoat.

"Your Highness, you have to let this humble minister decide..."

"All right, all right, don't worry, I will try my best to protect you!"

"Tell me first how to govern Mengyuan."

"Meng Yuan..."

Zhang Zongjun said after hearing the words and thinking for a moment.

"Governing Mengyuan is not easy. Its land is too vast and its people are too few. If it is ignored, there will be another strong enemy in decades. If it is managed, the cost of governance will be too high. I am afraid that the court's finances will not be able to maintain..."

Zhu Yunxi said with a depressed face when he heard the words.

"You know all the orphans you said, and say something that the orphans don't know!"

When Zhang Zongjun heard the words, he hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"Yes Yes……"

"According to my opinion, if we can gather the people of Mongolia and Yuan Dynasty, build several settlements, and use this as a basis to rule other scattered herdsmen, we can solve this problem."

"I just don't know if there is a suitable industry in Mengyuan Land that can support millions of people."

Zhu Yunxi pondered for a long time when he heard the words, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said happily.

"I just thought of it!"

Zhang Zongjun was just saying it casually, and he didn't expect Zhu Yunxi to think of a good solution at all.Hearing what Zhu Yunxi said now, he couldn't help becoming curious.

"what?"

"Your Highness really thought of a way?"

Zhu Yunxi nodded, pointing at the flock of sheep all over the mountains and plains.

"The wool can be broken!"

"wool?"

Zhang Zongjun frowned upon hearing this.

"According to what Weichen knows, wool is only suitable for rolling felt. We Ming people shouldn't use it, right?"

Zhu Yunxi smiled.

"You don't know that, wool can also be spun to produce woolen wool, woolen yarn and other things."

"However, the current textile equipment is not good enough, and the research institute must continue to improve it."

"In addition to wool, we can also develop minerals and meat products in the Northland. These are industries that require a lot of labor, which is enough to digest the population of Mongolian Yuan."

Zhang Zongjun said that he only heard about loneliness and didn't know what wool and wool were.

However, he has long been used to Zhu Yunxi's weird words, anyway, no matter what the emperor grandson said, he will be able to tinker with it in the near future.

"Your Highness, we can also recruit Mongolian Yuan people as soldiers, use Mongolian Yuan people to fight against Mongolian Yuan people, and attack the Chagatai Khanate, Golden Horde Khanate, and Timur Khanate in the west..."

"Push the border of Daming to the west of Suiye City in one fell swoop, and reproduce the glory of the prosperous Tang Dynasty!"

"good!"

While Zhu Yunxi was discussing with Zhang Zongjun how to govern Meng Yuan, Chang Jizu hurried over.

"Your Highness, there is an urgent military situation. Tens of thousands of Mongols have been found at the border to invade. General Chang asked His Highness how to deal with it!"

"Tens of thousands of Mongolian people?"

"Call your father over, and ask him personally!"

"promise!"

Not long after, Changsheng rushed over.

"My minister sees Your Highness!"

"Second uncle, just now the ancestor said that tens of thousands of Mongolian people invaded, what is going on?"

"Reporting to Your Highness, these people are Mongolian herdsmen, driving cattle and sheep into the country."

"If it's a small group of herdsmen, weichen will send someone to take them in, and it's fine to disrupt them and re-register them. But this time when tens of thousands of people flooded in, weichen doesn't know what to do."

"In case of infiltrating Mongolian spies, secretly inciting other herdsmen to rebel, or causing trouble for us, the loss outweighs the gain."

"Therefore, I ask Your Highness to make a decision, and we will deal with it as His Highness says!"

Zhu Yunxi thought for a while.

"Accept them all!"

"They came all the way to join us, so we shouldn't be like Bei Yuan and kill them, right?"

"Furthermore, we still need Beiyuan people to herd and guard the border when we conquer the land of Beiyuan. We must let them feel the Wanghua of our Ming Dynasty and agree with us."

"promise!"

Chang Sheng received Zhu Yunxi's order and immediately led an army of [-] to the border to gather herdsmen.

After Chang Sheng left, Zhu Yunxi immediately ordered the accompanying officials to make preparations for reception, plan the grassland in advance, allocate production materials, and so on.

The Boriged family was among the tens of thousands of herdsmen. They walked along the way and saw many people of the same clan. After seeing the people of the same clan living in peace and joy, their hanging hearts were relieved a lot.

When they heard from the mouths of their fellow clansmen that as long as they came to Guihua City to set up households, they could receive cattle and sheep, salt, tea, seeds, agricultural tools, swords and other things from the Daming people, they became more hopeful in their hearts. .

However, when they were about to reach Guihua City, they were suddenly blocked by a huge army.

The Mongolian Yuan people in Chang Sheng's army shouted at the tattered Mongolian Yuan herdsmen in Mongolian.

"Everyone stop!"

"No one is allowed to advance without the order of the general!"

Hearing this, Boriged quickly reined in the reins, and asked his son to gather the cattle and sheep together, and then led the whole family to kneel respectfully on the ground, waiting for the inspection by the Ming army.

They had eaten a lot of sheep along the way, and there were only a dozen sheep left.

As long as Daming is willing to accept them, he is willing to dedicate all the remaining sheep to Daming!

Boriged knelt on the ground, saw a Mongolian-looking officer passing by him, hurried forward a few steps, and said flatteringly.

"My lord, are you also from Mengyuan?"

When Jizhigrad heard the familiar accent, instead of feeling friendly, he felt offended.

"What nonsense are you talking about, I'm from Daming now!"

Hearing the fluent Mongolian dialect, Boriged felt more confident.If this officer wasn't from Mengyuan, he would have picked out his eyeballs and fed them to the eagles!
"My lord is right, it's the villain who said something wrong!"

"My lord, the villain is willing to donate all the cattle and sheep to Daming. I just ask my lord to say something nice to the villain in front of the Ming people, and let them reward the villain with a bowl of soup!"

Jirigele snorted coldly when he heard the words.

"Who cares about your cattle and sheep?"

"Our grandson of the Emperor Ming Dynasty is different from your greedy Khan. He is the richest, kindest and most righteous person in the world, so we won't take your property!"

"As long as you are obedient and grazing herds obediently, our grandson will definitely let you live a good life!"

When Boriged heard this, he had mixed feelings for a while, and even had the urge to cry.

Daming really did what Hu Qitu said, they really don't covet their own cattle and sheep!
"Don't worry, my lord, I will be obedient!"

"I will do whatever Daming asks me to do!"

Jizhigrad snorted again when he heard the words.

"It's a good time for you to catch up. Now that you surrender to me, Daming, you can not only get the pasture, but also receive a lot of supplies."

"If you are lucky enough, you may even meet my Royal Highness, Emperor Taisun of the Ming Dynasty!"

After Jizhigrad said this, he secretly vomited.

"However, seeing how poor you are, you might be able to choke. We have been fighting with Daming for several years, and we haven't seen the emperor's grandson yet..."
