Text_Chapter 432 Understand the situation
Zhu Youxiao's troops came all the way along the city built on the grassland, and the supplies were obtained in the city, and 100,000 iron horsemen, like locusts, spread out on the grassland, bringing people the shock is incomparable, as long as the herdsmen on Zhu Youxiao's marching route can mostly see this shocking scene. [Full text reading. 】
This march, like an armed parade, completely suppressed the slightly restless grassland, making all the people with ghostly thoughts helpless and reined.
Daming has these 100,000 iron horsemen, what tribe can't beat it?
The 100,000 army walked for two hours just through Zhenbei Pass, and then came to Shenyang, the capital of Liaodong Province at this time.
"Wechen see Your Majesty." Xiong Tingbi, the governor of Liaodong, took the governor Yuan Keli, the general of Liaodong Luo Yiyi, and a cadre of Liaodong civil and military forces, to greet him at the gate.
"The supplies are ready." Zhu Youxiao turned over and dismounted, and asked directly.
"It's all ready, just wait in the back." Xiong Tingbi replied.
"Lee fishing." Zhu Youxiao shouted.
"The end will be."
"You go and hand over to Governor Xiong, and let everyone have a good night's rest tonight."
"The last will obey."
So, that night, the whole army of 100,000 people, each with a bowl of wine and enough meat, let go of eating, and after eating and drinking, they slept loudly, without worrying about enemy attacks, without worrying about wolves, there were city defense troops waiting outside.
The next day, after sleeping enough, the soldiers began to wash and scrub, tidy up their personal hygiene, wash their clothes and so on, Zhu Youxiao's army was not a sloppy guard, but a division of kings, victories, and civilizations.
And the following days were to maintain a relaxed state of half-training and half-resting, waiting for the final order to attack.
"What is the situation in Liaodong now?" After a short break, Zhu Youxiao summoned the civil and military forces of Liaodong to inquire about the situation, and some things can only be seen clearly when they arrive at the place.
"Now everything is fine, there is no Jurchen harassment outside, there are no powerful landlords inside, and even Jiangmen has been cut clean by His Majesty, and Liaodong will naturally develop smoothly." Governor Xiong Tingbi replied. At that moment, he explained the specific situation in Liaodong one by one, including the collection of commercial taxes, the distribution of land, the construction of prisons, the construction of roads, and even the establishment of schools at all levels.
"Oh, you've got your school built here?" Zhu Youxiao asked a little closely, when he gave this order to the Ministry of Culture, he also had the intention of casting a net if there were fish or fish, let all localities adapt to it first, establish a foundation, and wait until he had his hands free to thoroughly sort it out.
But what I didn't expect was that Laidong was ahead of all identities, and a perfect three-level school system had been basically established.
"Yes, Your Majesty. In this way, thanks to His Majesty's great emigration move, the rebellion of Nan Zhili last time, and the various gentry and family members involved in several raids later, there are a large number of literate people, compared to the environment of the labor camp, it is simply lenient to let them come out to teach. Xiong Tingbi said roughly, explaining the reason here.
Saying this, Zhu Youxiao suddenly said, too, which family was able to rebel at the beginning, which family did not have deep local roots and many talents in the family, and now they are assigned to this kind of frontier and wild place, and the government wants to use their literacy strengths, and they naturally have no refusal.
Zhu Youxiao's prison was modeled after the establishment of later generations, all prisoners need to work, and later generations gradually turned to light processing of incoming materials, here is still the most primitive farm labor, and the location is an uncultivated wild wilderness, the hardships in this can be imagined.
Being able to come out of it and gain limited freedom to teach and educate people is naturally something that these people can't ask for. And for Xiong Tingbi, such a person is also easy to use, he will not talk nonsense, let him do whatever he wants, even many pedants are unwilling to learn Hanyu Pinyin, they all use the snort, and soon spread throughout Liaodong.
The truth in this, Zhu Youxiao figured it out as soon as he thought about it.
At the beginning, he retreated in great strides, and almost lost all the outside of the gate to the Jurchens, and all the Han people in Liaodong moved back, and under such destruction, everyone was lost, even the most important generals. When the homeland was recovered, the first governor was Sun Chengzong, who fully understood the emperor's intentions and took the lead in carrying out land reform and redistributing land to everyone.
When the most important means of production in the feudal era were mastered, the rest was naturally easy to do, and Xiong Tingbi didn't have to do anything, as long as Xiao Gui Cao followed and followed the road paved by Sun Chengzong.
After two or three years of development, this place has begun to see prosperity, especially the fertile black soil, so that the rice cultivation here is really a bumper harvest year after year, and there is now more than enough power to deliver grain to the Guannai.
"Good, good." Zhu Youxiao nodded with great satisfaction.
The emperor's praise made Xiong Tingbi very proud, and being recognized by the emperor meant that he was one step closer to the cabinet.
Unlike the previous emperors, the cabinet has different rules of court pushing, and the cabinet members of Zhu Youxiao's era are completely determined by him, even if you were just a white body before, as long as your ability is satisfied with the emperor, you can also ascend to the sky in one step and become the first assistant.
The real dynasty is Tian Shelang, and the twilight is in the Tianzi Hall.
"Is there any movement on the Jurchen side?" After understanding the situation in Liaodong, Zhu Youxiao turned to the topic, this time he did not come to inspect the place, but to move the Jurchen.
For this nation that replaced the Ming Dynasty in history and became the last feudal dynasty in China, he has never been able to let go, perhaps because of the influence of the underworld, so that he has always regarded this tribe as a great enemy of life and death.
This time I gave up the western expedition to Mongolia and came here thousands of miles away, so that the Jurchen could not recuperate, and this feeling is also one of the reasons.
"Jurchen...... Xiong Tingbi groaned and spoke slowly, "Since discovering the new habitat of the Jurchens, Wechen has often sent caravans to explore the situation. ”
At that moment, Xiong Tingbi told the information he had gotten.
Today's Jurchen habitat is in the Qiqihar area of later generations, this city is more famous, it is the largest city in Heilongjiang Province after the provincial capital Harbin, and its economic influence is very strong. This was also the case in ancient times, probably during the Jin Dynasty, when a city was built here, and it was called Puyu Road City at that time.
Later, with the decline of the Jin Dynasty and the rise of the Mengyuan Dynasty, the city here was abandoned until the Qing Dynasty built the city again, and the official name was Qiqihar.
Now, the Jurchens have settled in this place, and the title of Qiqihar naturally appeared early.
This is located on the Songnen Plain, the grassland is vast, the terrain is flat, unwilling to fail after the Huang Taiji annexed the Horqin tribe, he also began to herd the way of life, abandoning the Jurchen once more primitive fishing and hunting life.
It's like these wild boar skins have evolved.
During the period of recuperation, Huang Taiji was naturally not idle. Although the entire Northeast belongs to the Nuer Gandu Division of the Ming Dynasty, just like the Uszangdu Division, the official positions are held by the local native tribal leaders, and the Ming Dynasty has a tight rule here.
And this nominal relationship, which was maintained by mutual markets, was completely broken after the unification of the Jurchens. The life of these tribes is even more backward than that of the Jurchens, but the harsh living environment has created their strong bodies and will to fight. And these people are the main source of wild girls.
After a year of non-stop searching, coupled with what was found before, Huang Taiji finally gathered an elite army of about 30,000 people, except for not being very good at riding horses, these wild girls are really the best warriors.
Of course, these tribes are not Jurchens, but a general name for this place by the Ming Dynasty, calling the Shaomin of the entire Northeast Jurchen, just different tribes.
"Under the leadership of Huang Taiji, the Jurchens are strong in their troops, actively fighting abroad, and annexing tribes, at this time there are 30,000 wild Jurchen foot soldiers, 30,000 Mongolian Jurchen elite horses, a total of 60,000 soldiers and horses, if it is not for the lack of food and grass, it is estimated that this number can be more."
Xiong Tingbi's words really surprised Zhu Youxiao, how long has it been, and in a blink of an eye, another Eight Banners came out. Although Huang Taiji has some meaning that all the people are soldiers at this time, this achievement is also very amazing.
"And that's not all." Glancing at the emperor's expression, Xiong Tingbi once again threw out an almost shocking news, "Recently, in order to solve the problem of grain and grass, Huang Taiji seems to want to buy our cold-resistant rice seeds from the caravan, as well as some other forage seeds, and it seems that he intends to promote cultivation. ”
Grow rice!
Seriously, Zhu Youxiao was really frightened by this news, why couldn't the Jurchens develop before, the Jianzhou Jurchens have developed for hundreds of years, and they are all like three or four hundred thousand people, without him, the support is insufficient. Their traditional way of life of fishing and hunting can only feed so many people.
But now it's different, from Mongolia out of Xu Xi herd, from the Han people to learn farming, this ...... Huang Taiji wants to go to heaven!
"Fortunately, it came early, no matter what, this time the Jurchens must be driven to the west, and they must not be allowed to stay where they are." Zhu Youxiao secretly made up his mind to drive away the Jurchens.
The harsh environment is not a bad thing for the Jurchens, but it is tempered, so that their spirit of fighting the heavens and the earth will be maintained, and they will not be corrupted as quickly as they entered the customs in history. It's a bit of a terrible spirit to think about it this way, and it can't be here.
The Northeast is the Northeast of the Chinese, not the Jurchen.
Let them use this spirit to harm Westerners.
"It seems that my inducement has not worked." Suddenly, Zhu Youxiao sounded about the action of Dongchang years ago, and he let the eyeliner action buried in the Jurchen persuade Huang Taiji to take the initiative to give up the northeast and move westward, but now it seems that the other party did not take it, but chose another way.
"This minister doesn't know." Xiong Tingbi shook his head, he had heard about this plan, he knew who the person who acted was, and now that the emperor asked, he couldn't say the details, but he didn't act, or the action failed.
"It seems that we can only wait for Wei Zhongxian to come." Zhu Youxiao said, it's okay, take this opportunity to let the troops rest well, I'm afraid there will be a big battle next.
: It's done, haha.
