Chapter 51: A big stick in one hand and a carrot in the other
"And if we in Erut cooperate with you? Do we have food too? Seeing that Serev had received so much food, Erut Khan Jigelu was envious, after all, the situation of their tribe was similar to that of Khalkha.
"Don't say that, I said that as long as you agree to my request, not only will you have food, but I will also send troops to help you unify Mongolia."
"The Jurchens can support Horqin to dominate the grassland, and I can also support you Khalkha and Erut to dominate the grassland, how about it?" Zhu Youzhen was not verbose, and directly threw a huge temptation to the two, after all, dominating the grassland is the dream of every tribe, and Zhu Youzhen does not believe that they will not be moved.
Sure enough, when they heard Zhu Youzhen say that they would support them to be the lord of the grassland, Serev and Ji Gelu looked at each other, they didn't expect Zhu Youzhen to offer such an irresistible bargaining chip, after all, it is the wish of every tribe to make their tribe the lord of the grassland.
Just now they had carefully looked at the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty, and at a glance, there were definitely no less than 50,000 people, and everyone looked so brave, not inferior to the Eight Banners of Manchuria.
I saw that they immediately knelt down and knelt down to Zhu Youzhen, "The ministers are willing to submit to His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty." ”
"Good, good, good." The happy Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but shout three good words loudly.
The submission of the Khalkha and Erut ministries made Zhu Youzhen's strategy more than half successful, the grassland is far from being directly governed by the Ming Dynasty, and the current focus of the imperial court is not in the grassland, and the current Ming Dynasty only hopes that the grassland can be stable.
With the two divisions of Khalkha and Erut, it will never be so easy for the Jurchens to pass through Mongolia in the future, and the northern border of the Ming Dynasty will be much safer.
In the big tent, Serev and Ji Gelu were carefully explaining the situation in Mongolia at this time to Zhu Youzhen.
Today's Mongolia is no longer the Mongolia of the early Ming Dynasty, and the current Mongolia is divided into three according to geographical location, Moxi Mongolia, Mobei Mongolia and Monan Mongolia.
There are also hundreds of tribes in the three departments, among which Khalkha, Erut and Korqin all belong to a branch of southern Mongolia.
"Your Majesty, you see, the main tribes that are close to the Jurchens today are more than 100 tribes of all sizes, such as the Keshiketeng Tribe, the Haoqi Special Tribe, the Ao Han Tribe, and the Sunit Tribe, which are mainly Korqin." As for the situation of the Mongolian tribes, Selev is a treasure.
With Serev's explanation, Zhu Youzhen has a general understanding of the current situation of the entire Mongolia, for the expansion of the Jurchens, Zhu Youzhen did not expect it to be so fast, and now it can be said that the whole Mongolia has been tied to the Jurchen chariot, but among the Mongolian tribes, there is no lack of dissatisfaction with the Jurchens, but they are oppressed by the Jurchens by force, and they dare not break out.
Now what Zhu Youzhen has to do is to become a spark, quickly ignite those dry firewood, and let the Jurchens drown in the wrath of the Mongols.
"Among these tribes? If you are asked to send troops? Who do you think is the best fight? ”
"What?" Serev and Tigelu were taken aback, they had never thought of attacking any tribe, and besides, the relationship between the Mongol tribes was complicated, and it was no exaggeration to say that the whole body was involved, and the combined forces of the tribes of Serev and Tigeru could not gather 30,000 men.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, it's not that the minions are not dedicated, it's really that we Khalkha and Errut people are few and outnumbered, and we can't beat any tribe. The Great Tomorrow Army is so brave, I believe that as long as the Heavenly Army goes, it will be invincible. The two hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, they were afraid that they would really be driven away as cannon fodder.
Looking at the two people who knelt on the ground, Zhu Youzhen was disdainful, but it was understandable, after all, such a war had nothing to do with them, and the so-called non-ours had different hearts, and Zhu Youzhen did not intend to let them die for him.
"You don't have to worry about this, I let you send troops naturally for a reason, and you don't have to worry that I will use the forces of your tribes, I have prepared for you to attack the forces of the tribes, 100,000 Mongolian iron horsemen, I hope you will lead them to rescue the Mongolian tribes from the clutches of the Jurchens."
"Of course, it doesn't take all the tribes to use force to rescue them, I will also prepare you a million taels of silver and a million loads of wheat, as long as you take refuge in the Ming Dynasty, you will give them these grains, understand?"
Serev and Ji Gelu, who knelt on the ground, looked at each other and hesitated for a while, the two seemed to remember something, and quickly kowtowed and thanked him, "Slave, thank you for the grace of His Majesty the Great Emperor." ”
Zhu Youzhen said that the 100,000 Mongolian iron cavalry was naturally exchanged by him for millions of taels of silver from the system, in fact, Zhu Youzhen had long wanted to exchange the Mongolian iron cavalry, you must know that this army is also famous in the world's military history, but the image of using this army in the interior of the Ming Dynasty is not good, and now it naturally has a place to use in the Mongolian steppe.
Although Zhu Youzhen handed over the command of 100,000 iron cavalry to Serev and Ji Gelu, he was not worried at all that Serev and Ji Gelu would rely on these 100,000 troops to rebel, the reason was very simple, when they came out of the system, Zhu Youzhen had already spent a lot of money to buy out their right to use, so from the very beginning, Zhu Youzhen's brand was deeply inserted into the minds of every Mongolian iron horseman.
If Serev and Tigelu really dared to rebel, then Zhu Youzhen believed that without doing it himself, these 100,000 Mongolian iron horsemen would tear them to pieces.
In the Khalkha University Campus, the 100,000 Mongolian iron cavalry exchanged by Zhu Youzhen from the system has been assembled, and Serev and Ji Gelu originally did not believe that Zhu Youzhen would have an army of 100,000, but when they saw the black and oppressive army in the school field, the two of them were convinced.
If Serev and Ji Gelu still had a trace of luck before, then now the two of them are happy and convinced, and they sincerely serve Zhu Youzhen.
"Congratulations to the master, successfully subduing the hearts of the Khalkha and Erlut tribesmen, spreading the prestige of the Ming Dynasty, and increasing the hearts of the people by 10,000 points." When the system sensed the desperate desire of Serev and others, it immediately updated the people's hearts of the people.
"Ten thousand points, good boy." Hearing the voice reported by the system, Zhu Youzhen was overjoyed, he didn't expect that he had subdued two Mongolians and brought so many popular points. You must know that having so many popular points means that he Zhu Youzhen can exchange more things.
Although Zhu Youzhen spent a lot of money in order to subdue the two, there is always a reward for the effort, and Zhu Youzhen believes that this is just the beginning, and his policy of having a carrot in one hand and a stick in the hand will definitely succeed.
