Chapter 723: Korean Annan (1)
On the fourth day of October in the second year of Yuanwu, Beijing City.
"Hahaha, Mu Jingnan and Zhou Yuji fought well."
In the Qianqing Palace, Liu Ximing laughed heartily when he received the battle report of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and his laughter could be heard in the entire Qianqing Palace.
"What happy event did the imperial brother encounter, smiling so happily?"
Liu Xixian, the king of Han, and Liu Xi'an, the king of Yuehe, laughed and walked into the Qianqing Palace.
Liu Ximing's smiling eyes narrowed into two slits and beckoned straight to his two younger brothers:
"Come and see, on August 27, Mu Jingnan and Zhou Yuji defeated the combined forces of Southern Mongolia and Northern Mongolia in Hulunbuir, beheaded more than 120,000 people, and all the 170,000 ethnic groups in Southern Mongolia were captured, and now they have been resettled in the local distribution of cattle and sheep."
"It's indeed gratifying, but if it's just this, the imperial brother shouldn't be so happy, right?"
Liu Xixian saw the great joy in Liu Ximing's eyes, and immediately asked knowingly.
Liu Ximing said with a smile:
"Or Mu Jingnan, this kid dares to fight, taking advantage of the fact that Mobei Mongolia was also defeated by our Han army in one fell swoop, Jebtsundamba was killed in battle, he went straight to Ulaanbaatar with 40,000 soldiers and horses, and captured all the Ao Er of Jebzundamba, and the entire Mobei Mongolia has also been subdued."
Liu Xi'an was a little worried:
"This Jebtsundamba is known as the king of the law, and Mobei Mongolia is the most respected, and now it is killed by our army, will it hinder my Han rule in Mobei?"
Liu Ximing sneered again and again:
"These Z Buddhism in Mongolia call for wind and rain, fish Mongolian people, the previous Mongolian tribal leaders mostly cooperated for their own selfish interests, but my Han is different, we are really for the sake of the Mongolian people."
"Fighting the princes and dividing cattle and sheep has made the Mongolian people completely recognize us, and now if these living Buddhas cannot be removed, then Mongolia will fall into the feudal slave society sooner or later, so I have ordered Mu Jingnan, Shao Derong and others to carry out a large-scale purge operation in the grassland."
Liu Ximing said this lightly, but Liu Xixian and Liu Xi'an could think of the heaviness behind these words.
I'm afraid that the grassland will be full of people again.
However, the two brothers thought about it carefully, in order to make the Mongolian people finally liberated, these things should indeed be eradicated one by one.
Anyway, it has nothing to do with themselves, and the two brothers shook their heads and left this matter behind.
Liu Xixian looked at Liu Ximing with some embarrassment, hesitating and not knowing how to speak.
Liu Ximing saw the look in his brother's eyes, "What, you two came together, could it be that something can't be done?" ”
Liu Xixian smiled hesitantly, rubbed his hands and didn't know what to say.
"Oh, what's so bad about that."
Liu Xi'an was anxious, and opened his mouth directly:
"Second brother, the two daughters-in-law in our family are making trouble, saying that they want to ask the second brother about the placement of Zhu Cihong that he said before, but it has been more than two years, and there has been no news."
"Hahaha"
Liu Ximing laughed heartily and pointed at Liu Xixian with a playful expression.
"You kid, the fourth brother is right, what can't I say."
Liu Xixian's eyes lit up, "Brother Huang, what about this?" ”
Liu Ximing beckoned to the palace people to move three stools over, and the three brothers sat together as before.
"If you don't ask about this, I'm going to look for you soon, have you heard about North Korea and Annan?"
"Do you mean that the Korean envoys and the Annam envoys came to the imperial court to ask for annexation and help?"
Liu Xixian thought for a while and asked.
Liu Ximing nodded with satisfaction, "That's exactly what happened." ”
"Dolgon and Zhang Xianzhong have done a very good job in Korea and Annam, I heard that Zhu Shenzhong killed hundreds of thousands of people in North Korea alone, and the two classes of nobles were chased and killed."
"Zhang Xianzhong is even more ruthless, not only the Mo clan and the Wu clan were killed, but the Hou Li Dynasty was also almost killed, Zheng Jie, this kid ran fast, and ran out when Zhang Xianzhong beat the dragon, but now there are only remnants of the defeated generals, and the Ruan clan only has one breath left."
Liu Ximing showed a mysterious smile on his face, "I didn't expect the two of them to do such a good job, then it was time for my Han court to make a move in advance." ”
"What does my brother mean by that?" , Liu Xi'an tilted his head and asked.
Liu Ximing snapped his fingers on Liu Xi'an's head, "It's not for you two bastards." ”
"You are my own brother, the ministers of the court and the central government can get a hereditary heirloom from generation to generation, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty even has an iron hat king who said, I can't treat you two badly."
"Brother"
The two brothers, Liu Xixian and Liu Xi'an, shouted at Liu Ximing with emotion.
Liu Ximing waved his hand, "Don't do this, let's say it directly, these two places are the feudal kingdoms I prepared for you, and in the same way, Zhu Cihong's matter will be solved together." ”
"Don't you remember that I said before that I could consider sealing Zhu Cihong to Jeju Island, and if North Korea is still in the hands of the Lee family, then how can this be sealed?"
Liu Xixian and Liu Xi'an were so excited that they didn't know how to speak.
Although he said that he knew that his brother would definitely not treat him badly, but now that he heard Liu Ximing give a promise, it was another matter.
Seeing this, Liu Ximing pointed at the two and smiled:
"Don't be complacent two of you, it's not unconditional to give you North Korea and Annan."
"But by the orders of the royal brother"
The two brothers clasped their fists excitedly.
"I have decided to rebuild my Chinese tributary system, and in the future, all countries on this Han Star must pay tribute to my Huaxia, and all kings, chieftains, and chieftains must also be canonized by me in order to succeed to the throne."
"Hiss"
Liu Xi's ambitious goal made the two brothers gasp.
"My Chinese tributary system is still divided according to the form of vassal states, and after the two of you became the king of Joseon and the king of Annam respectively, the sovereignty of the entire country is still in your hands, and the titles and official positions below the king are also recognized by each other.
But the condition is, first, you must serve my Han as the emperor, whether you are at home or abroad, you can only call the king, and second, you are not allowed to attack each other without authorization, and the diplomatic caliber must be consistent with that of our Han.
Third, we must use our Han Chinese Yuan as a unified currency, and as compensation, our Han Central Bank will give you each a certain right to benefit and speak according to the strength of the country. ”
Among the three conditions prescribed by Liu Ximing, the first is the issue of face, which is also the basis of the Chinese tributary system he designed.
The second and third articles were aimed at completely controlling these vassal states.
But unlike the black-hearted capitalists of Midi, Liu Ximing knew that only benefit sharing could lead to common development, so he also transferred part of his rights and interests in the central bank.
This practice was not only beneficial to the tributary system, but was actually an insurance measure for the Han Dynasty.
What Liu Ximing is most worried about now is that his successor after his death will see the financial supremacy of the Chinese yuan and print money indiscriminately.
Although Dahan already has a collective chamber to supervise and control the central bank, Liu Ximing is a little worried about this internal prevention method after all.
If Korea, Annam, and later vassal states can all be brought into the central bank's plate, then the amount of currency to be issued will become an international issue, and it will inevitably be constrained by many parties.
It's a bit of a eurozone feel.
Of course, this approach is not without its losses.
What is lost is the flexibility of the central bank's economic regulation and control.
For example, originally country A needed the central bank to release water, so the central bank could release water directly, but now there are more countries B and C, and even country H, and these countries are different, so the central bank's policy will have to go through a multi-party game.
But compared with the original problem, Liu Ximing felt that this method was the best way he could think of.
After listening to Liu Ximing's explanation, the two brothers Liu Xixian and Liu Xi'an were ignited again.
Liu Ximing smiled and motioned for the two younger brothers to calm down.
"In the past year or so, I have sent you to various departments to take charge of a certain aspect of work, and I have sent you this person who is the head of the palace, the canon, etc., in order to prepare for today."
"As for the army, you don't have to worry, now that the multiple systems of the Han army are mutually restrictive, as long as I appoint you as the commander-in-chief, you don't have to worry about loyalty. With my great man, you will have plenty of time to build up your army in the future. ”
Liu Xixian and Liu Xi'an hugged their fists in an uproar: "Thank you second brother, I will never forget." ”
Liu Ximing snorted and laughed:
"You and my brother still say this, as long as we can support each other and keep my Liu family stable."
"Hahaha"
Bursts of hearty laughter resounded in the Qianqing Palace.
