“…… Today, Myanmar has been completely returned to the thieves, regardless of the size of the officials still do business as usual, their Dai Lu is still the same as usual, and the merchants are also selling as usual. Right now...... None of the big and small officials are all in the way, and they are still helping the thieves to do things, and they are not ashamed. ”

Wu Sangui issued such a recital in Kunming, undoubtedly shows that in just a few months, the changes in Myanmar, for the Burmese people who hold both ends and the local Tusi Tusi officials, surrendering to power seems to be a common thing, after all, for all this, they have long been used to it, not to mention that in their hearts, they have always agreed that the Ming is orthodox, even so, they can surrender to the Burmese without psychological pressure, and now the Ming is back here, and the Tusi Tusi officials who have always taken the Ming as the orthodox Tusi Tusi officials, Naturally, it is even more impossible to have the slightest resistance, and even many of them feel that it is a good thing that this orthodoxy has been restored, which is more beneficial to them, especially after they get the new canonization of the imperial court, after all, although there was the canonization of the king of Burma in the past, the canonization of the king of Burma obviously cannot be compared with the Ming Emperor.

However, everyone knows that this kind of submission is just a habit, a tradition, and habits and traditions are easily shaken in the face of pressure, not to mention that they themselves are easy to surrender to the power, after all, they have submitted to the Burmese, which means that they will submit to the Ming today, and they will also surrender to others tomorrow.

For the Dingnan Tongzhi who is in Ava, no, it should be in Dingnan City, it is obviously unrealistic to want to "Dingping South" just relying on the last trace of awe of these local officials for the Ming Dynasty to maintain order here, and if you want to gain a firm foothold here, you have to implement some other means.

For Ding Yujie, who understands the local natives' temperament, the surrender of these toasts is only the first time, and he needs to use other ways to keep them in awe. Maintain the awe of the Great Ming.

In the past half month, 92 Tusi Tuguan of Burma, 16 Tusi Tuguan of Mon, 54 Tuguan of Shan, and more than 300 Tusi Tuguan from Kachin and other places have gathered in Dingnan City. On the one hand, they congratulated the first Dingnan Tongzhi who was dedicated to Yiwu, and on the other hand, they accepted the golden red card and letter issued by the Ming Emperor, expressing their acceptance of the rule of the Ming Dynasty.

For these local officials, the reason why they have come from thousands of miles here is more important than the fact that they know that now is the time for them to show their loyalty. The razed city of Ava, and the Burmese king, known as the Prisoner of the Order, were reminding them of the choices they should make.

As the weak, they know what the survival of the weak is, and the reason why they are willing to surrender to the Ming is precisely because they can recognize the difference in strength between the two, of course, as the weak, they also need the protection of the strong.

It is precisely because of this that they accepted the rule of the Burmese at the beginning, and now, the defeat of the Burmese has made them take the initiative to throw themselves into the arms of the strong, accept the rule of the strong, and follow the strong, which is the way for the weak to survive.

When these local officials with different minds came to Ava City, they immediately found that the city had been completely changed, although the monasteries and pagodas were still there, but the palaces and houses built by the Burmese in the city had completely disappeared. The whole city, which will look like the Han Chinese city in Yunnan.

For all this, most of the local officials who once expressed their submission to the Burmese turned a blind eye, and they were more worried about themselves than the others. They are now thinking more about themselves, they need to accept the recognition of Da Ming anew, only in this way can they survive. After all, now those Burmese have used their experiences to remind everyone of what will happen if they fight against the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, in the past half a month, these 325 local officials have not been idle, they have not only come to Dingnancheng to congratulate, accept golden red cards and letters, and express their loyalty to the Ming Dynasty. After the arrival of these local officials, Ding Yujie, who was a fellow acquaintance of Dingnan, met with them one by one, and then listened to their suggestions, and then discussed with them the content of the powers and responsibilities of the local officials' letters of appointment, and even listened to their opinions and suggestions on issues such as tribute. In the end, an agreement was reached, and it can be said that everyone was happy.

Because of this, on the day when the letter of appointment and the golden red card and letter were promulgated, it can be said to be an unprecedented event for Dingnan City, and even a celebration was held, but everyone didn't know that the finale of this celebration, the celebratory banquet, was just beginning.

In the midst of laughter, Ding Yujie, who was wearing a red official robe, stood up, and looked around at the more than 300 local officials under the tent with his hands level, except for more than 40 local officials of the big states sitting in the main tent, the other local officials were all sitting under the tent on both sides of the main tent, and their position had a lot to do with the strength of their clan. In addition to the fruits placed on the table in front of them, there are all kinds of delicacies cooked by the Ming chef, in the past half a month, the Ming cuisine has really conquered many of the local officials, so that their hearts are broken in the Ming cuisine, enjoying the Ming food, wine, and of course the tender watery Burmese women - after Mangda was captured, nearly 10,000 women in his clan were included in the officials, and these women were rewarded to the "counterinsurgency" meritorious tribes, and thousands of women were kept as maids, These local officials who serve. And before that, these women have been trained by the palace maids, and it can be said that they have barely mastered some Ming etiquette.

Food, wine, and beautiful women indulge these local officials in a luxury they have never experienced before. Before Ding Yujie came to Myanmar this time, he was specially instructed that only if they enjoyed the changes brought by civilization to their lives, they would be willing to accept the changes, of course, the changes brought to them by the Ming Dynasty. And the luxurious lifestyle is also civilized.

Zhu Mingzhong, who is from the 21st century, knows very well that almost no one can resist the temptation of civilization. Of course, this kind of civilization must be able to allow people to enjoy and enjoy life, after all, it is only human instinct to yearn for a better life.

And now, what is needed is to let these people feel a good life, feel the development of the Ming Dynasty, feel the beauty of life here, and then yearn for it. In the end, he was willing to follow the Ming Dynasty, was willing to change himself to get a better life, and was finally assimilated by advanced civilization, that is, "Sinicized".

And this kind of "sinicization",It's from top to bottom.,Only by letting these local officials indulge in the "luxurious lifestyle" brought about by advanced civilization, will they willingly be the forerunners of "sinicization", and eventually the entire tribe will be slowly "sinicized".

If you enter the mountain, you will be ruined, and if you go out of the mountain, you will be Han, which is exactly what the Ming Dynasty has been doing to the southwest Zhuyi, how to make it willing to go out of the mountain? Naturally, with a better way of life, only generations of mountain barbarians continue to yearn for a Han-style life, they will be willing to be Han people!

Of course, the most important premise is that the Han people must have knives in their hands, otherwise, these mountain barbarians will try to use knives to steal the lives of Han people, and will try to use knives to get the same life.

It's just a bunch of barbarians!

With a contemptuous sneer in his heart, knowing what kind of means should be used to deal with these mountain barbarians, and how to deal with them, Yu Yujie, who was both gracious and powerful, stood there and looked around at these local officials.

"This official is ordered by the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty to be in charge of the affairs of the Tusi, and from now on, I still need to look up to you!"

After saying these words with a smile, when those local officials expressed their loyalty, Ding Yujie's face suddenly changed again.

"However, as we all know, the Burmese military and civilian consolation envoy Si was originally the Tusi of my Ming, and Mangda was also a local official awarded by my Ming Dynasty, and he should have served the imperial court in this turbulent time in China, but not only did he not know how to serve the king, but when the holy car came, he was even more disrespectful in front of the car, and even more, he colluded with the Qing captives, had bad intentions, and killed my Ming officials, such atrocities, if they were not severely punished, how could they correct the law of the court, how could they warn the world's disobedient?"

After saying this, Ding Yujie stood there, waiting for the others to take over his words. She can't be the only protagonist in this scene. He believed that even these local officials knew how to play this scene.

"Such disloyal and unrighteous thieves must be severely punished!"

The first to stand up and express his stance was the leader of the Meng people, Baishan, who had made miraculous achievements, and naturally received a reward from the imperial court, in addition to the post of comfort envoy, the imperial court also rewarded him with a large amount of cloth, salt and other materials, and of course tens of thousands of Burmese slaves, and most of these were snatched from Mangda. It can also be regarded as an additional reward for the Meng people.

In fact, in addition, most of the rewards for the toast are probably these worthless things, just because most of the toasts are blocked by traffic roads, and there is often a lack of salt in the mountains, and the people have no local products for barter, so their lives are often very difficult, and the government rewards the toasts are mainly based on these daily necessities.

Maybe these things are not valuable, but for many local officials, these materials are exactly what they need. They needed these materials to meet the needs of the people in the toast. Often these things are even more important to them than silver,

For Jiangbei, the mountain people in Myanmar are undoubtedly a new market, and even Ding Yujie has secretly speculated that if the market here can be fully developed, then the demand for this market is not even inferior to that of a province in China.

Of course, if you want to sell goods here, you must first develop the forests and minerals here. and all kinds of other resources, and only then would the natives have the silver to buy all kinds of goods that were shipped from the country. This means that he first needs to develop the local area, and this development is also conducive to his rule in Burma, he needs to use this development to win the hearts of the people, and exchange the benefits for the support of the local officials for the Ming rule.

Of course, everything is built on a basis, and the local officials must first be in awe of the Ming Dynasty, only in this way will the merchants enter Burma, and only in this way will the local officials be willingly attracted by various interests, and then submit to the Ming Dynasty.

How to make them awe?

There's only one way that works best – kill the chicken and show it to the monkey!

"If you don't punish it severely, how can you convince the people of the world?"

And who is this chicken? Looking at those local officials, Ding Yujie's expression was solemn, and now it is up to them to express their attitude. Even if you want to kill the chicken to show the monkey, you must first let everyone shout together, and arouse everyone's "indignation" first.

"Kill him!"

"That's right! Kill him! ”

After Baishan's statement, Jinghong, Jingdong and other local officials also got up and said that they should be severely punished, for these Meng people and the Tusi leaders of the Shan people, the life and death of Mangda has nothing to do with them, and they also do not care about their life or death, and they are more willing to exchange for the favor of the Ming officials through this statement, so naturally they all stood up and shouted loudly. And the Burmese local officials will probably seem a little hesitant, and even unwilling to express their position, after all, Mangda is their kingdom, just hesitating, Mangda's younger brother and the new Darcy Tusi appeased Mangbai, and when he saw the eyes of the Ming people on him, he stood up and said.

"What Lord Tongzhi said is extremely true, such a thief who is not subordinate cannot uphold the law of the country without severe punishment!"

When he said this, he obviously didn't care about any brotherhood, for him, there was nothing more important than his power, as for Reckless, he didn't have to worry about anything for a dead man, and even if there was a need, he didn't even mind taking matters into his own hands, of course, under the "force" of the Ming people.

There is Mangbai at the beginning of this, and the other Burmese local officials all got up one after another to express their approval, and for a while, that Mangda suddenly became the finger of Qianfu, and it was in Qianfu's finger, with Ding Yujie's order, Mangda and Hei Lu were escorted to the tent, and as soon as Mangda, who was trembling, arrived in the tent, when he saw Ding Yujie, he immediately knelt down and prayed in Chinese, which was not fluent.

"Lord Tianguan, sinners know their crimes, sinners know their crimes, please spare the lives of sinners......"

At this time, Mangda didn't dare to say anything other than muttering and pleading, and for him, there was nothing more important than saving his life. On the contrary, the black Lu Na on the side will be very calm, the reason why he is so calm is because before this, in all the interrogations, he has put the blame on Mangda, he is just a privy, just a minister.

Now Da Ming needs to pull out a sinner, and there is no one more suitable except for the recklessness who is the king. As for him being just a minister, what's the use of killing him.

If you want to kill, of course you have to kill Manda!

Kill!

Just kill him and you'll be safe.

Kill! He was the king, and he commanded everything.

Kill him!

"Mangda, since you are guilty, then there is no need for the official to say more!"

Seeing Mangda kowtow and confess his guilt like this, Ding Yujie looked at him and said with a sad expression.

"Mangda, originally you were a consolation envoy for my Ming Burmese military and civilians, and you were sealed by my Ming Dynasty, and you should have been loyal to the monarch and the country, but you were not subordinate, and you were disrespectful to the emperor first......"

First of all, he listed a series of charges against Manda, and in everyone's opinion, this was just the crime needed to kill the head. They who know the Han people know that the Ming people will always give a reason for killing, in the past, the "General Zhengnan" was like this, they would not kill people unreasonably, and now since they want to kill, they will definitely be accused of death! Not only did the people around him think that Mangda would die, but even when Mangda thought that he was going to die, Ding Yujie suddenly changed his words.

"But, today's benevolence and righteousness, thinking that what you did recklessly did in the future, were all deceived by traitors, and you committed such unpardonable crimes, but you can avoid the death penalty, and you can't escape the living crime, withdraw from the post of the Burmese military and civilian consolation envoy, and you are confined to Nantianmen with your family, so punishment, you can be trusted?"

As soon as Mangda, who originally thought that he was going to die, heard that it was just a trap, he was not convinced at all, but he felt that he immediately kowtowed and thanked him again and again, and even breathed a sigh of relief.

He is still alive, how can he live?

When Mangda thanked him, the mangpale face sitting under the tent changed instantly.

Originally, he also thought that Mangda would definitely die, and even thought that when the Ming Kingdom was weak in the future, he would use Mangda's killing to incite the dissatisfaction of the Burmese people, and then rebel against the Ming court, which was also his reason, he could kill Mangda with his own hands, but even so, Mangda would become the reason for his rebellion in the future. But he didn't expect that this Tongzhi Lord had no intention of killing Mangda at all, and even took him and his wife and children to the Nantianmen to be imprisoned.

How so?

Seeing Mangbai's surprise, Ding Yujie smiled coldly in his heart. I'm afraid he didn't expect that he would end up recklessly surviving!

The reason why he was given a way to live was to check and balance Mangbai and restrain the Burmese.

As long as Mangda and his sons and daughters are in Nantianmen for a day, it will be a threat to Mang Bai, because as long as Mang Bai and his son are alive, he may remove Mang Bai from his position as a pacifier at any time. With this threat, Mang Bai did not dare to rebel, and even other Burmese people would not rebel. After all, such a punishment is already benevolent and righteous in the eyes of everyone. If you are betraying the Ming Dynasty, then you are undoubtedly betraying the benevolence and righteousness of the Ming Dynasty. The snake can't have a head, and Mangda is that head, a head that can replace Mangbai at any time.

When Mangda kowtowed to thank him, Hei Lu Na breathed a sigh of relief, since Mangda, as the culprit, could survive, then he would definitely be able to survive, just when he thought that he could also live, and he could even return to the clan to continue to be powerful, only to hear Ding Yujie say.

"Hei Runa, as a privy, you don't know how to help Mangda distinguish between loyalty and traitor, but you bewitch Mangda, act with no subordinates, and don't kill you and other traitors, how can you correct the law of the court, come to someone, pull it down, and Ling Chi will be executed!"

What the?

At this time, everyone was stunned, and even Hei Lu didn't expect that it would be such a result, originally he thought that he would never die, and if he wanted to die, he would die recklessly, but why would he die now?

The sudden change made Hei Lu even speechless in astonishment, and he didn't even react when he was dragged to the center of the tent and tied to a stake. As for those local officials, they looked at the scene in front of them even more dumbfounded.

Why do you want to kill Heiluna?

As we all know, this black and reckless talk is roughly equivalent to decoration, and the real power is still in the hands of Reckless, he, at most, is just making ideas on the sidelines!

"Adult, the villain is wronged, the villain is wronged......"

In the shouting of Hei Lu, Ding Yujie just drank the wine disapprerovingly, and Mu Tianbo, who was present on the side, looked at his calm appearance, and only admired the Jing Xue who had never met in his heart.

Why did you kill Heiluna?

In addition to not arousing the dissatisfaction of the Burmese people, it is more important to tell those local officials, especially the servants of the local officials, that the Ming Dynasty will not care what the local officials do, but they will never let go of those who incite the local officials to do something.

Killing a chicken to a monkey looks simple.

But the real hard part is killing that chicken.

In today's Myanmar, there is no better chicken than the Black Runa. His status is not high, he is not only a privy secret, but also a reckless uncle, killing such a person can not only deter the local officials, but also deter the servants around the local officials, so that when the local officials are in trouble, they choose to stand on the side of the Ming Dynasty for their own lives, instead of inciting the local officials to rebel. So this chicken has to be killed.

What a play!

But that's just the beginning!

After taking a sip of wine, Mu Tianbo didn't even look at the Hei Lu who cried and shouted in local and Chinese from time to time, he didn't care about the life or death of this person, in fact, he didn't care about the life and death of these local officials at all. Another thing he is concerned about now is the "Nanyang Army", which is a unit recruited by the Loyal and Righteous Army to train the natives, and as the general of Zhengnan, he is about to become the commander of this army, but this commander, whether it is an ornament or the real commander of the first army.

"The big state chooses 500 native soldiers, the middle state 300, and the small state 100."

This is the standard for recruiting native soldiers, each Tusi needs to provide native soldiers for the Ming Dynasty, with these native soldiers they provide, Dingnan Tongzhi will be able to suppress Tusi Buchen at any time, of course, now with these native soldiers, once the training is completed, they can go north to crusade against Wu Sangui and recover Yunnan!

And that's what he cared about!

But Mu Tianbo also had a trace of worry, he was worried that he would be the commander of this army. It's just a decoration, once Zhu Mingzhong finishes using his banner of "General Zhengnan", he will be thrown aside.

It is easy to please God, but it is difficult to send God.

What should he do with his bare hands?

Thinking of this, Mu Tianbo, who was bent on rebuilding the prestige of the Mu family, frowned, and occasionally he would set his eyes on those loyal army officers in red military uniforms, who were obviously impossible to use him.

What should I do next?

How can we take advantage of this current opportunity and use Zhu Mingzhong's support to re-establish an army of the Mu family?

Just as Mu Tianbo was thinking like this, a scream from there disrupted his thoughts, making him look towards the center of the open space in front of the big tent......
