Chapter 850: Just follow suit
And militarily, the biggest feature of the Manchu Qing and Fusang is that they formed countless puppet armies to help them fight, of course, during the Manchu Qing period, these 'puppet armies' were called the Green Battalion.
Wherever the Manchu Qing arrived, they set up green battalions in the local area, most of which were mainly pre-Ming troops who surrendered, and at the same time left thousands of eight banners in large cities to be monitored; As for the war, since the beginning of the second year of Yongli, the main force of the Manchu Qing expedition to the Central Plains is mainly the Han Eight Banners, which are also the puppet army strictly speaking, supplemented by the Green Battalion, not to mention the real Manchu Eight Banners, that is, the Mongolian Eight Banners are mostly used as supervision teams, and rarely go into battle again.
After Fuso occupied the Northeast in 1932, it also began to form a puppet army, and various 'Manchukuo Army', 'Mongolian Xinjiang Ann National Army', and 'Peaceful Nation-building Army' emerged in endlessly, although because of the rise of nationalism, most of these puppet armies were weak in the face of the anti-Japanese armed forces, and the Manchu Han Eight Banners and Green Battalion could not be compared, but they also played a certain role in the Japanese army's conquest.
After the pacification of Annan, Zhu Zanyi's situation will be very similar to that of the Manchu Qing Dynasty who had just entered the customs. According to Yun Xi's plan, if there is no uprising against him within three months after Zhu Zanyi officially sealed the domain in Annan, the expeditionary army will be withdrawn from Annan one after another, and the Han army that followed him to stay there will only be about 20,000 people, which is about 100,000 people including his family. Although there were also Han Chinese who migrated in the late Song Dynasty or even earlier in Annam, most of these people intermarried with the locals, and Zhu Zanyi needed to organize them slowly.
100,000 people and 6 million Annamite people are completely incomparable, Zhu Zanyi, like the ruler of the Mongol Yuan, can not rely only on his own people, he must follow the example of the Manchu Qing and form an army dominated by locals as the main force to fight the war, in order to control the more Yue, the Han army will be used as a warlord and the defender of important cities and passes.
But Yun Xi would not have suggested that Zhu Zanyi follow the example of the Manchu Qing and recruit some locals to form an organization similar to the Eight Banners. The Manchus were forced to do so at that time, and there were only a few hundred thousand people in their own race, and this was the result of counting countless ethnic groups in the northeast that had nothing to do with the Jianzhou Jurchens as Manchus.
Zhu Zanyi doesn't have to worry about such a thing. Now there are more than 60 million Han people in the Ming Dynasty, which is ten times that of the Annam people, and Yun Xi will move some Han people to Annam in the next few years, and scatter and move some of the Annam people to the southern provinces and the vassal states of Nanyang, and then there will be Han people who voluntarily migrate over, as long as the Ming Dynasty does not suddenly end up causing Zhu Zanyi to die suddenly, the number of Han people will inevitably increase.
What's more, the Han culture was originally a very inclusive culture, and Annam admired Confucianism like the Han people, and after a few decades, the Annam people and the Han people could almost merge into one, eliminate the distinction between ethnic groups, and become the Han people with the same significant local characteristics as the people in the Liangguang region. The best way to integrate a nation is not to distinguish the people by nationality, but by class, identity, support or opposition, and even whether or not they have money as the criterion for differentiation, but it is not possible to distinguish by nationality.
Therefore, whether from the perspective of ethnic integration or stable rule of Annam, Zhu Zanyi must form an army dominated by locals.
And allow the generals of the Ming Dynasty to recruit troops on their own, first, in order to further reflect their trust, and secondly, now the Ming Dynasty has no other locals in Annan who can be trusted, and it is necessary to form an army of many locals.
The above content, Yun Xi picked what he could say and talked about it with Zhu Xi and others. This process was extremely painful, because the Manchu and Fusang invasions were both afterward, the rule of the Meng Yuan was not successful, and the previous ethnic groups failed to completely conquer the Central Plains.
However, although the facial expressions of Zhu Xi and the others did not reveal anything, Yun Xi could still see that they were not actually persuaded by themselves, but because they saw that Yun Xi was very firm in his thoughts, and they couldn't find too many loopholes, so they didn't say anything to refute.
Yun Xi sighed and said, "In the future, you will know that my method is correct. Hu Yan, has the will been prepared? Show it to me. ”
