When Gao Yigong and the others left Xingyuan, it was already midnight, Li Zicheng entered the bedroom, and Namu Zhong had already woken up from a sleep, "Heavenly Destiny Khan, do they really agree to be classified as Han nationality?" ”

"Of course, after being classified as Han, Mongolians can live a better life," Li Zicheng hugged Namu Zhong in his arms, "To be honest, Namu Zhong, isn't life good now?" ”

"The concubine is good, but the Mongolian warriors ......" Namu Zhong leaned on Li Zicheng's arms, as docile as a lamb.

"I understood that women needed comfort, so I gave them plenty of pasture to settle in, and men eager to fight, so I gave them swords and spears, until one day they were tired of themselves!"

"Destiny Khan, you are really ...... Anything can ......"

Li Zicheng kissed Namu Zhong on the cheek and said, "Don't worry, you will soon see that as long as your people follow me, they will definitely not be treated badly." ”

Namu Zhong shrank in Li Zicheng's arms, but said in his heart: It turns out that this absurd and shameless person also has times when he does great things, no wonder the Great Khan bowed his head in front of him, thought for a moment, and whispered: "Heavenly Mandate Khan, since you are going to register as a Han nationality, give the concubine a name!" ”

Giving a name? Li Zicheng was stunned, the name Namu Zhong was originally very catchy, if you change the surname, the charm will be lost, but since you have entered the Han nationality, the name must be changed, so he said casually: "Just call Li Na, 'Li' is the national surname of the Tang Dynasty, but I still call you Namu Zhong in private, this name is more catchy." ”

"Thank you Destiny Khan!" Namu Zhong laughed after eating, and said, "What about the Great Khan?" Although the Great Khan is gone, the Mandate of Heaven Khan will also give him a Chinese name, right? ”

"Lin Dan Khan?" Li Zicheng remembered that he gave the surnames to the Mongolians in Dacaotan, which were Gao, Lin, Li, and Liu, and the name "Lin Dan" was very good, and the popularity of later generations was also high, so he said: "It's called Lin Dan, which is not only a Chinese name, but also similar to the original Mongolian name, and it is catchy to read." ”

Li Zicheng had already stretched out his hand to go over, wanting to relax for a while, but Namu Zhong wrapped his hand and didn't let go, "Heavenly Mandate Khan, and Shuji, the Great Khan gave the name first......

"The name Shuji is not bad in itself, there is no need to change it, just add the Han surname, followed by the surname Lin Danhan, and call Lin Shuji ......"

"Although the concubine is not Shuji's mother-in-law, she has the grace to nurture it," Namu Zhong whispered: "The concubine hopes that Shuji can follow her mother's surname......"

Namu Zhong has her own plans in her heart, Shuji has been following her, she has long been her daughter, she is now with Li Zicheng, Shuji has also become Li Zicheng's daughter, "Li" surname is not only her Namu Zhong's surname, but also Li Zicheng's surname, as Li Zicheng's daughter, it is also more justifiable.

If the Heavenly Mandate Khan marries Shuji in the future, it will not be a big deal, although they are all surnamed Li, they are not related by blood.

Li Zicheng thought of Namu Zhong's thoughts, what he thought in his heart was Namu Zhong himself......

After dawn, Erdemutu bid farewell to Li Zicheng and returned to Datong Mountain with his guards to rectify the herdsmen first, while Li Zicheng took his own soldiers out of the north gate and helped register the Mongols outside the northern city under the guidance of the Mongolian soldiers.

The civil affairs framework of Yonggu City has not yet been established, and the current civil affairs officials Liu Tuanfu and Luo Busang are almost alone, and Li Zicheng happened to be idle, so he took the initiative to ask for the Mongolians outside the northern city to be registered as Han nationality, and by the way, see how strong the resistance of ordinary Mongolians is.

In the future, Yonggu City will definitely have to pay taxes, but the herdsmen have just lived a good life, and they have to pay taxes to the higher-level officers, the burden is too heavy, this time all the Mongolians in Dacaotan will be registered as Han nationality, and they will have to manage Yonggu City according to the model of the Han people in the future, and the herdsmen do not have to pay taxes to the higher-level officers, but instead pay taxes to the Governor's Office of the Mandate of Heaven, and the civil affairs officials will collect taxes on their behalf.

The officers could get a larger share of the pastures, but they had no right to tax ordinary herdsmen, and if they wanted additional property, they could, go and rob them themselves, didn't the Mongols like to plunder? It's up to you.

But you can't loot the Han people, now it's a family, you can only go beyond the border wall to loot, there are many ownerless lands, whoever occupies it is whoever's, Li Zicheng can't look at the poor property of the nomadic tribe at all, all he wants is land, step by step to take these lands into his own possession, even if he is temporarily unable to manage, let them belong to him on the surface.

Out of the Yonggu City, looking at it, almost a piece of green, only sporadic white spots, black dots dotted among them, walking on such a grassland, people's minds have also become broad-minded, no wonder the Mongolians are particularly nostalgic for the grassland, what they miss may not be the former home, but in the endless steppe Pegasus galloping feeling and life......

Li Zicheng became ambitious for a while, shook the reins of the horse with his hand, clamped the horse's belly between his legs, and whipped the yellow-maned horse's buttocks, "driving the ......" war horse was in pain, stepped out of the four hooves, and drove forward like flying.

The real grassland is good, don't worry about the obstacles of dark ditches, stone walls or anything, as long as you can control the war horse, the whip is, the whirring wind passes through the ears, and it feels like flying.

Li Zicheng hadn't galloped on the prairie for a long time, and the last time he seemed to have gone to Triangle City, he couldn't remember what time it was.

He Xiaomi and other personal soldiers were also quick horses, closely following, even the two accompanying Mongolians, were hooked up, constantly whipped the horse's buttocks with the horsewhip, and made a strange cry of "whoop" in the mouth, fortunately there were only two people, if there were dozens of people, the momentum must be very terrifying.

More than ten miles of road, the fast horse arrived in an instant, Li Zicheng felt that it was not enjoyable, but he turned the horse's head, crossed from this village, and went directly to the next village.

The population is not large, Li Zicheng estimated that there were only dozens of people, at this time the livestock ate grass on their own, and the Mongols, young and old, were rushing to harvest the pasture, and then threw it in the sun.

The two accompanying Mongolian soldiers were afraid that Li Zicheng would not understand, so they stepped forward and said: "Heavenly Mandate Khan, the herdsmen take advantage of the summer when the pasture is abundant, harvest some pasture, dry it and store it as food for livestock in autumn and winter. ”

Li Zicheng nodded, he originally designed it this way, the big grass beach is a large pasture land, but the grass is only mature in spring and summer, if the herdsmen are not allowed to look for mountain pasture in autumn and winter, they can only give each herdsman more pasture, livestock can not be eaten, can be harvested and dried, stocked, as autumn and winter forage.

The advantage of this is that the herdsmen not only do not have to be nomadic and change fields, but more importantly, in spring and autumn, the Mongols want to rush to harvest the pasture, so they will fix them in their own grasslands, so as not to have the ambition of plundering the Han people.

The two Mongols first went over to greet the herdsmen, explained their intentions, and knew that it was the decision of the entire Chahar Department, and although the herdsmen's eyes were full of attachment, they did not refuse.

When the herdsmen heard that Li Zicheng, the Khan of the Mandate of Heaven, who had come to register their household registration, they "hula" and knelt in front of Li Zicheng, "Knock on the Khan of Destiny!" ”

"Thank you Destiny Khan for bringing us food!"

"Oh, today is the Destiny of Heaven Khan......"

Li Zicheng was overjoyed, it seems that these herdsmen can still remember the favor given to them by the Heavenly Mandate Army, maybe the herdsmen are as kind as the Han people, and only the officers who are full of various desires will tempt them to embark on the road of slaughter.

The work of registering these Mongols as Han nationality went very smoothly, and the only thing that made Li Zicheng a little entangled was to give these herdsmen a Han name, which they couldn't remember at all, and they needed to be reminded and told repeatedly, and most of the time was spent on Han names.

There were not many villages outside the north gate, and after the registration was completed, Li Zicheng galloped for a while, until the sun was about to set, and then returned to the city.

However, in three days, almost all the Mongols on the big grass beach were registered as Han nationality, Li Zicheng was happy for a while, so he wandered around the city, and a personal soldier flew over, took out a sealed envelope from his arms, and said in a low voice: "Metropolitan Governor, urgent message from General Li of Luyang County!" ”

Li Zicheng stared at the face of the pro-soldier, but unfortunately on his face, there was only fatigue after strenuous exercise, and there was no surprise or disappointment, he should not know the specific content of the message.

After receiving the message from his own soldiers, Li Zicheng felt that he had a thousand pounds, this was his first step in the transformation of Chahar Mongolia, only success, not failure, I hope Li Guo will not let him down.

Li Zicheng didn't open it on the street, although there were personal guards around him, and it was impossible for others to peek at it, but he still returned to Xingyuan, sat down on the seat, and then slowly tore off the seal and opened the message, there was only a blank piece of paper inside, and there was not a word on it.

He was not in a hurry, knowing that this was a secret letter, so he asked He Xiaomi to take half a basin of water, unfold the white paper, spread it in the water, and moisten it fully, and a line of clear handwriting immediately appeared on the paper: The prey is caught and cooked.

Li Zicheng is overjoyed, this is the code he agreed with Li Guo! He took out the white paper, crumpled it to a pulp, and commanded: "Xiaomi, act according to the original plan, and send a message to Double Happiness!" ”

"Yes, Grand Duke!" Although He Xiaomi didn't know the specific content of the message, he saw a piece of good news from the face of the Grand Duke.

Three days later, Li Guo sent the bodies of Su Tai and Erke Kongol Ezhe back to Yonggu City, along with a detailed text description and a march map indicating the location of the accident between Su Tai and Erke Kongguo Erzhe.

Li Zicheng set up a mourning hall in Yonggu City for Sutai and Erke Konggol Ezhe, which was even more solemn than when Lin Dan Khan died, and allowed nearby herdsmen to enter the city to worship and pay respects. The last time Lin Dan Khan passed away, because he was suffering from a serious disease, in order to avoid infection, the corpse sparked in time, and the herdsmen had no time to worship.

The corpses of Sutai and Erke Kongol, Ezhe, were pickled in lime and did not deteriorate in a short time.

In the afternoon, Li Zicheng summoned Gao Yigong, Badasi, and Jirigala, as well as civil affairs officials Liu Tuanfu and Luo Busang, to urgently discuss countermeasures.

According to Li Zicheng's knowledge of the Mongols, Erke Kongol Ezhe was the only descendant of Lin Dan Khan, and killing him and his biological mother Sutai was simply the greatest insult to the Chahars.
