Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 1001 Political Discussion (3)

"Manchuria? Why change this?"

"Yeah, what's wrong with Jurchen? Why should we change it?"

"I think this Manchuria is good."

"What's good about that? If this is changed, then what are we?"

"The Eight Banners of Manchuria!"

Compared to the surprise of Fan Wencai, Fan Wencheng, Sony and his party, many people gathered in the hall started talking about it. After all, this was too sudden.

For the Eight Banners, the Jurchens are their roots.

Now the new Khan wants to change this, doesn’t that mean denying the past?
Under such special circumstances, although Daishan, Manggurtai and Amin had their own ideas about this matter and some even felt dissatisfied, they did not rush to say anything but watched from the sidelines.

Their intuition told them that Huang Taiji must have a deeper meaning.

Although they were dissatisfied with Huang Taiji, it did not mean that they were not afraid of him. Especially in the fight for the Khan's succession, the ruthlessness shown by Huang Taiji still made them terrified.

"Everyone be quiet and listen to the Khan!"

Now, someone stood up.

Irgen Jueluo Kakai.

When they saw this man, at least Daishan and the other two had hatred in their eyes. No one had expected that when Huang Taiji went on an expedition to Nurgan in the east, he had actually won over many people in Shengjing, and this man was one of them.

"I know that some people think that the changes to Manchuria are not good and should not be made." As the hall quieted down, Huang Taiji said calmly.

"But have you ever thought about it? The term Jurchen is too broad. In addition to my tribe, there are many other tribes. More importantly, there are many uncivilized tribes in the Nurgan area. They were collectively referred to as Jurchen by the Mongols and the Ming Dynasty. They are also called wild Jurchens!!"

"This is simply an insult to my people!"

"Manchuria is unique, just like the Eight Banners are brave and valiant. Who in this land can rival my Eight Banners?"

"Yes! The current Eight Banners are facing some problems, but this does not mean the same for the Eight Banners in the future. This Khan will lead everyone to let those powerful enemies know how powerful the Eight Banners of Manchuria are!!"

Huang Taiji's words were somewhat inflammatory.

When some people in the hall heard this, they became emotional.

"Manchuria!!"

"Manchuria!"

What's more, some people even shouted it out in public, which attracted a lot of attention, but soon the noise became louder.

Daishan, Manggurtai, Amin and his party all looked at the scene in astonishment.

No one expected the wind direction to change so quickly.

Huang Taiji looked arrogant as he watched the scene in front of him. In fact, he had deep considerations about changing the name of the tribe. Using Manchuria to distinguish the Jurchens was to make the Eight Banners have special pride. The pride of the Eight Banners had been lost in wars one after another. In Huang Taiji's view, he must find a way to consolidate it.

Only when you are proud can you fight more bravely. Since he is the new Khan, he must make some changes. If nothing changes in the end and it is still the same as before, then why should he be the Khan?

What's more, Huang Taiji had other ideas about changing to Manchuria.

He wanted to redefine the division under the Great Jin and the Eight Banners. The Eight Banners could not only include Manchuria, but also others. Only in this way could his power be further expanded and the Eight Banners under the Great Jin could truly transform. This idea had already existed in the Joseon period.

Liu Xingzuo and Li Yangeng rebelled against the Eight Banners with the so-called New Eight Banners and finally fled to Korea. This was a huge blow to Huang Taiji.

"Now that the Great Jin has the Eight Banners of Manchuria, some things must be changed."

Under such circumstances, Huang Taiji gathered his thoughts and said with a sharp look in his eyes: "In order to further strengthen the cohesion of the Eight Banners, this Khan has decided to create three ethnic groups besides Manchuria, namely Mongolian, Han, and Korean. From now on, under the command of the Great Jin, Manchuria will be included in the Eight Banners of Manchuria, Mongolia will be included in the Eight Banners of Mongolia, and so on."

"And the Eight Banners of the Han Army will concentrate the artillery of the Great Jin. In the past, when the Eight Banners fought against the Ming Army, they did not play to their strengths, especially in the battle of Jinshan. The root cause was..."

"Wait a moment!!"

But before Huang Taiji could finish his words, Manggurtai's shout rang out, which made Huang Taiji frown. What he hated most was when someone dared to interrupt him while he was speaking.

At present, he is the Khan of the Great Jin Dynasty and the leader of the Eight Banners! !

"If you say so, then in the future, besides the Manchus, my Eight Banners will also have a bunch of slaves in charge? Isn't this a huge joke?!"

Manggurtai stared at Huang Taiji with his eyes wide open and said, "The Great Jin was conquered by my Eight Banners. I don't understand why these things have to be changed. There are still Mongolian, Han Army, and Korean Eight Banners. Why? From now on, these slaves are no longer slaves, but have become masters?"

"Yeah, Mongolia, I can understand a little bit, but what about the Han army and Korea?"

Amin followed closely and said, "Could it be that the Khan did all this for the sake of his slaves? If that is the case, we absolutely cannot accept it!"

Among the eight banners today, the one with the largest number of Han and Korean people is led by Huang Taiji, and what Manggurtai and Amin said soon caused considerable controversy.

"Yes, I can understand Manchuria, but why are there Han troops and Korea? If that's the case, who is the master of the Eight Banners?"

"That's right. They were conquered by us. They were captured by us. Slaves are slaves. How can they suddenly become masters?"

"There is clearly a black flag, why go to so much trouble to do this!"

"This is absolutely unacceptable!!"

The shouting in the hall grew louder.

Dorgon, who was standing aside, frowned slightly when he saw the scene. He understood a little bit of what Huang Taiji was thinking.

This myna is no simple man. He intends to use this to clarify the Eight Banners. If the Eight Banners are really divided into Manchuria, Mongolia, Han Army, and Korea, a large number of people will be loyal to the Khan in the future, especially the latter three types. After all, it is because of his myna that they can have this change in status.

And this will be reflected on the battlefield.

They will fight fearlessly.

After all, the Eight Banners were divided into four, and there were more positions. Anyone who made merit on the battlefield would surely be promoted. But Dorgon was a little worried. If the banners were really divided into four, how could he ensure absolute control over the last three? After all, the core population of the Eight Banners of Manchuria was the smallest. Even though all the members of the Eight Banners of Manchuria were brave and good at fighting, they could not match the scale of the last three.
