Chapter 588: The Alliance

After the tea was consumed, Wu Keshan tasted a different feeling.

The aroma of tea is not very strong, unlike the tea aroma of those spiced teas on the grassland.

The aftertaste is very long, refreshing in the mouth, without the slightest sticking.

Wu Keshan understands that this is indeed good tea. He closed his eyes and savored the cup of tea.

Zhu Youxiao sat there, also drinking tea, enjoying it on his face.

After a while, it seemed that he had drunk enough of this tea, Zhu Youxiao looked at Wu Keshan and asked with a smile: "I don't know what happened today?" ”

"Your Majesty, I still want to talk to Your Majesty about things on the grassland." Wu Keshan said with a smile.

"Oh, really?" Zhu Youxiao nodded, and asked a little suspiciously, "What's going on on this grassland?" ”

After hearing this, Wu Keshan sighed helplessly, with a sad expression on his face, and then said: "Your Majesty should know that the minister is actually a person who yearns for peace. On this grassland, there are fights and killings all day long, and the dead and injured are all herdsmen on the grassland. ”

"Originally, there was no way, and the fight and killing were also to find a way to survive. Natural disasters and man-made disasters are constantly occurring on the grassland, and it is not easy for us to survive on the grassland. ”

"Now that His Majesty has opened a field in Daning City, we have indeed gained a lot of benefits from the past few years of trade. Especially this wool, so that everyone is enough to feed themselves. Even in addition to supporting himself, he can live a lot of good lives. ”

"Next, change the name and surname, canonize Your Majesty, and open a school, this good day will be even better, and everyone is thriving. The gratitude of the minister to His Majesty in his heart can be described as a high mountain up. ”

Zhu Youxiao looked at Wu Keshan.

The mountains are still high, why don't you say that if the Yellow River is overflowing, it will be out of control?

However, Zhu Youxiao didn't complain about Wu Keshan's words, he probably understood what Wu Keshan meant and what he was going to say.

This is a way that Zhu Youxiao didn't expect, but this way is very comfortable.

Wu Keshan looked at Zhu Youxiao's expression, and now the emperor of the Ming Dynasty seemed to be very satisfied.

Wu Keshan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Things really didn't surprise him, this can indeed satisfy the heart of the Ming Emperor, and his thoughts are not wrong.

Wu Keshan continued: "But it is not peaceful on the grassland. Everyone in this grassland knows that it was Lin Dan Khan who was originally in charge, this guy regarded himself as the grassland Zhengshuo, saying that he was a descendant of Meng Yuan, and he wanted to unify the grassland, counterattack the Ming Dynasty, and restore the Ming Dynasty. ”

Wu Keshan looked sad and angry, as if he felt the same way.

But Zhu Youxiao knew that no one believed in this matter, let alone the restoration of the anti-Ming Dynasty, and no one thought that Lin Dan Khan wanted to unify the grassland, whether it was the Ming Dynasty or the Mongols.

The Mongols who have been divided for so many years, how easy is it to want to unify?

In the original history, Lin Dan Khan did not succeed, but let Nurhachi and Huangtaiji take advantage, and finally unified the Mongolian steppe.

As for Huang Taiji, they finally entered the Central Plains and established the Qing Dynasty, many of which were Ming Ming's own problems.

This era is the era that is worse than anyone, the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years is rotten to the bones, and the Mongolians for more than 200 years are also rotten to the bones.

On the contrary, the emerging Nurhachi was not so bad, so in the end the family won.

But now that Huang Taiji is gone, Lin Dan Khan is left, Zhu Youxiao doesn't think Lin Dan Khan can get better, and he doesn't want him to make trouble in the north.

From now on, I will devote more energy to the south.

There are still some stalls in domestic affairs that have not been cleaned up, and after they are cleaned up, they will be overseas, that is, the south.

I won't put more energy into the north, after all, the ice age is coming soon, and there is not much development in the north. The overwhelming snow and the temperature of minus forty or fifty degrees are almost unsuitable for human survival.

Zhu Youxiao has never measured the temperature of the Northeast in the future.

In his previous life, Guo Degang often said "old man", which was just the end of the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, when the glacial period had already passed, and only one tail remained. Then came global warming, and the temperature was long gone.

Zhu Youxiao remembers very clearly that when he was a child, snow in his hometown could fall up to his knees, but when he grew up, it rarely snowed in winter.

In the Ming Dynasty, heavy snow fell north of the Yangtze River, not the kind that stopped when it fell, but the kind of goose feather snow. Do you think about how cold it is in the Northeast at this time, and how cold it is on the grassland?

The farther north you go, the colder it gets, and the north has no development. As long as Lin Dan Khan can be stabilized and let him freeze on the grassland, he will come up by himself when the time comes.

Wu Keshan didn't know what Zhu Youxiao was thinking, and continued: "Now he is also eyeing us. The minister was really afraid that after the Ming Dynasty left Liaodong, Lin Dan Khan would come east. At that time, our eastern grassland will be scattered, and I am afraid that we will not be able to resist Lin Dan Khan. ”

After speaking, Wu Keshan stood up directly, lay on the ground directly and said, "Please have mercy on Your Majesty!" ”

"So what do you want to do?" Zhu Youxiao looked at Wu Keshan and asked.

"The ministers hope that under the auspices of His Majesty, all the Mongols in the eastern steppes will be gathered together to fight against Lin Dan Khan. Once the time is ripe, everyone will crusade against Lin Dan Khan together. Wu Keshan raised his head and said in a somewhat excited tone.

"Once they join the Alliance, Da Ming is responsible for supervising them. If anyone dares to break the covenant, everyone will be killed! ”

Zhu Youxiao looked at Wu Keshan.

This guy is really very politically intelligent.

This matter is in Wu Keshan's statement, that is, everyone established this covenant in order to resist Lin Dan Khan together. And everyone is a courtier of the Ming Dynasty and accepted the canonization of the Ming Dynasty, so this matter should be presided over by you of the Ming Dynasty.

This directly puts itself in the position of an organizer and also a manager. The proposer was taken by him, and it can be said that he carried the black cauldron, and all the good things were given to Daming.

That's a great deal. Of course, in this matter, he is not without benefits to reap.

Once this covenant is reached, Da Ming will call the shots for him, and the first person to propose it will become the organizer. After all, it is impossible for the Ming Dynasty to be on the grassland all the time, and Horqin can use this to seize a lot of power, and even hold the entire Eastern Grassland Alliance in his hands. At that time, he was the lord of the eastern steppes.

Whether Lin Dan Khan comes to fight him, or he goes to fight Lin Dan Khan, a new king will appear on the grassland. This is not what the Ming Dynasty wanted to see.

But Zhu Youxiao was not worried at all, he felt that Wu Keshan was thinking too simply.

If there is really a Ming Dynasty to organize this alliance, then it is not something you can get if you want to get power.

Zhu Youxiao watched Wu Keshan kneel on the ground, stood up directly from the dragon chair, walked to Wu Keshan's side and helped him up with his own hands, and said in a gentle tone: "It doesn't have to be like this." Since you recognize the Ming Dynasty as the master, the Ming Dynasty should be the master for you. ”

"I have decided to convene a meeting of the Alliance in Shenyang, and invite all the tribal lords of the grassland to come to Shenyang City to participate in the grand event. At this conference, I will personally canonize the Mongol kings and bestow them on the royal palace and the royal seal. And include your two sisters in the harem and tell the world. ”

This can be said to be full of atmosphere.

Anyway, if you have a reason, you won't pretend, and there's a showdown. With Wu Keshan's words, you can come up with a reason.

Originally, Zhu Youxiao wanted the small tribe to do it, but they didn't do it, so let's do it.

Does the emperor of the Ming Dynasty need to say anything else?

Come, live; If you don't come, die!

Although he didn't say such a thing on the surface, it was such a thing, those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me die!

Daming now has this confidence.

Zhu Youxiao looked at Wu Keshan and said, "You will preside over this alliance." ”

Wu Keshan was even more excited, has this wish come true?

Zhu Youxiao was not worried about Wu Keshan really dominating the grassland at all. What about even a unified grassland?

Without the Ming Dynasty, the grassland could not live at all, and the further it went, the more so. Moreover, with the current military equipment of the Ming Dynasty, the grassland is blind when it wants the Ming Dynasty to loot.

Wait until you put the machine gun cannon on the Great Wall, just you, and you still want to break through the Great Wall defense line?

Thinking too much, a fortress of fifteen people, put two machine guns, and put a few mountain guns, you still want to break through the fortress?

Then build two bunkers with cement, put the muzzle of the machine gun in it, put in food and water, and the people will hide in the bunker, and after you come, I will be abrupt and see what you can do with the current bunker?

Do you planer by hand? What can you do?

There is only one dead end.

Now Zhu Youxiao has the confidence to speak, that is, those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me die.

"Yes, Your Majesty. The minister must live up to His Majesty's trust! Wu Keshan hurriedly assured loudly.

Anyway, regardless of the rest, this time I want to make the most of the benefits. Dad made the prince, and at that time, he was the rightful heir of the Ming Dynasty.

The two younger sisters rightfully married the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and they are about to soar.

The eastern grasslands will be dominated by Horqin, which is something that Horqin has been looking forward to for a long time. One day, when his strength is enough, he will wave his troops westward to destroy Lin Dan Khan, and he will be the lord of the entire grassland.

Pulling the excited Wu Keshan up, Zhu Youxiao said, "Okay, go back and do it." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." After Wu Keshan agreed, he got up from the ground and hurriedly walked out.

His steps were firm and fast, and you could tell he was very excited.

This time was indeed enough to excite him.

Zhu Youxiao looked at Wu Keshan's back, moved his body, turned to the Wei Dynasty beside him and said, "Have the army all turned back?" Shouldn't you report about the grain and grass? Rush them. ”
