Villager of Daming

Chapter 1162: Who’s to say about lobbying?

The commander stopped eating and explained to everyone the problems of social organizational structure. Whether an army can win a war is actually this knowledge.

Zhu Wentian didn't care whether others ate or not. He lowered his head and ate fiercely. He didn't cook any meat dishes when he got up in the morning. He ate too many meat skewers last night.

He was thinking about how he would react if something happened to the tribal leaders who left early. First, he had to imagine himself as if he had a tribe.

Facing Ming's military superiority and the offensive of other pro-Ming tribes, what should I do? Completely surrender to Beiyuan? Obviously not.

Bei Yuanqi has been exhausted, so there are only a few people hiding in a far away place without risking their lives. They have to pretend to be a group of grassland herdsmen when buying things and get some medicine back.

If you take the entire tribe to seek refuge with Beiyuan, the most likely outcome is that it will be annexed by Beiyuan. Things and people will be taken away. You will be killed, and your close associates will die along with them.

This is based on normal thinking, but I believe that there are always people who are short-sighted, especially when many people died after going back. In anger, they wanted to avenge their cronies, so they approached Bei Yuan...

If the wise leader didn't go to Bei Yuan, would he immediately turn around and confess his crime? Obviously not. The treatment they received was definitely not as good as the tribes who had been pro-Ming from the beginning.

When the tribes who are pro-Ming attack their own tribe, can Ming help them? The hardest thing is trust.

Since neither of them is possible, we can only run away after returning. Instead of joining Beiyuan, we can run eastward or northeastward.

In the late Ming Dynasty, the decision to build Shanhaiguan there was made after careful investigation, and it was indeed left. If someone hadn't opened the switch to let people in and wanted to attack it, it would have been very difficult!
Zhu Wentian said and denied, and what if there were also the unscrupulous tribal leaders. If they saw someone lobbying, they would kill them directly, or capture them and send them to Beiyuan together.
Anyone who can be sent out must be brave and resourceful. Wouldn't it be more suitable for that kind of person to arrange other better jobs?

Of course, the line in Tangshan is not good, and Shanhaiguan cannot be occupied by the Jurchens. Even though the customs have not been repaired yet, the terrain is good.

He found that even if he replaced a certain tribal leader now, it would be difficult to choose, but he would definitely choose to join Ming Dynasty. Only in this way would it be safe and directly let Ming Dynasty move all his tribes to other places.

……

After breakfast, the rest of the team from Xiaqiu Village took the princes to practice calligraphy. The princes actually wanted to sleep more, it was the hottest day of the year! It had rained before and it was hot and humid.

"Lobbyists who need to go to other tribes to lobby, uh... no, it's too dangerous and not worth it."

It is better to stay as far away from the tribes that previously lined up with Ming Dynasty as possible, otherwise they will attack.

Naturally, the thatched huts cannot be taken away, and the rest are taken with them. The team will have to walk for a long time, and they must not stop and rest after going dozens of miles. The tribes who are close to the Ming Dynasty promise to chase. come over.

Zhu Wentian thought about various possibilities, used a pair of chopsticks to insert a small piece of old tofu, brought it over to dip it in the dipping sauce, stuffed it into his mouth and shook his head.

How many people and livestock would the tribe lose by constantly traveling? It is now the 16th day of the 6th lunar month and the 3rd day of the eighth lunar month.

The weather turns cold in mid-September. Even if you pack your things with your tribe and set off, you won't be able to walk very far in a day. If there is heavy snow in mid-October, the temperature will drop directly to below zero.

The crops you planted must be discarded because they are not yet ripe.

Ling'er won't let them sleep, so they have to work hard. They haven't practiced calligraphy well in the past few days. How can I explain to His Majesty after responding to Tianfu?
Zhu Wentian naturally discussed with the village leader what he was thinking about while eating. He found that when he met a tribal leader who had similar thoughts to him, he could get the other person to take the entire tribe to migrate out of this place. Somewhere in Hebei.

Because in the Northeast, heating is provided as soon as winter enters November, and in special places, heating is provided in September, but they will not take the tribes to go that far.

At this time, it is most comfortable to sleep with an air conditioner, no, a fan, or someone fanning you.

Even diplomats should not lobby.

Listening to the analysis given by Hanhan, the head of the village suddenly asked: "Hanhan! We are celebrating the Hungry Ghost Festival outside. Do you want to build a memorial hall? I have brought the tablets with me, so I don't need you to continue carving them. You have already carved them." Several sets.

Those properties were all idle, and like the land in some places, it was affected by various circumstances and eventually no one was cultivating it. When we worship our ancestors, we tell our ancestors that we have found a way to solve the problem of barren land. "

Zhu Wentian: "..."

What did you just say? Worshiping ancestors during the Ghost Festival? Have you lost your memory?
The director looked at Hanhan's surprised expression with confusion, confusion with suspicion, and confusion at the same time, and was stunned. How could he see so much?

The two were silent for a moment, and suddenly said at the same time, "I know" and "I'll tell you."

"Say it!" The two spoke together again, this time with the same content.

Zhu Wentian clasped his fists: "As expected of the powerful Zhu Lichang of Xiaqiu Village, he is really far-sighted and strategizing, alas! There is no real person under such a great reputation, I admire him!"

The director took a deep breath and clasped his fists: "It's easy to talk, but I wonder if Hanhan has any advice?"

"Communicate with each other! What Zhu Li said..."

"Hanhan, aren't you awkward?"

"The chief wants to spread the word. Let's choose a place to worship our ancestors on the Hungry Ghost Festival, so that the enemy will know where we are.

They either set up an ambush and waited around there, or they chose dangerous places to hide on the way there.

In the end, it is the decisive battle between us and them. We can worry less and they can also relax.

Then, taking advantage of this opportunity, let people know that there are many places in the North Parallel Province that are uninhabited but have a lot of fertile farmland. "

Zhu Wentian said it very confidently and looked at Li Chang.

The director nodded helplessly: "How did you guess it?"

"You have said it. I never thought of it before. Okay, let's do it." Zhu Wentian agreed.

The next step is how to spread the gossip, which is actually simple. Those people will definitely leave some hiding people to collect intelligence.

Including Beiyuan, I believe there are some small trading teams composed of individuals or several people who do not trade with tribes as the main body.

But you can't catch them, and you still expect to use them.

"Hanhan, how many people do you think they can bring back? Will they stop getting sick and stop taking medicine?"

After confirming this matter, the mayor was curious about how many people could fall down after two days and one night of heavy rain.

“When a horse falls, the people get sick, and they are reluctant to throw away what the horse is carrying.

In fact, they are sending people to chase them now to ensure that they can find traces on the road. If they just throw the dead horse away, it would be smart to cut the horse meat and smoke it and take it with them to eat, or just take the raw meat with them on the way. .

It’s not that horse meat that eats drunken horse grass will collapse like a horse, but horse meat that’s been exposed to rain can easily breed bacteria. "

Zhu Wentian thought for a moment and gave the answer.
