Chapter 950 Heavenly Khan
The victory of the battle scared the Mongols, and the next Kuritai conference was much simpler, and all the Mongol princes were headed by the Ming Emperor Zhu Hong, anyway, what are you talking about.
Zhu Hongsan scolded in his heart when he saw the appearance of the Mongolian prince: These guys are really cheap, Lao Tzu originally wanted to have a good discussion with you at that time, but he didn't listen, but now he is honest!
The Kuritai Conference ended perfectly, and the conference elected Ezhe as the new Mongolian Khutuktu Khan without any suspense, and at the same time, at the suggestion of Zhu Hongsan, Wu Keshan, the prince of Korqin Zhuoliktu, became the Taishi and became one of Ezhe's auxiliary ministers.
For this arrangement, Ezhe still had some criticism at first, Ezhe thought that now that Wu Keshan had suffered heavy losses, why not directly destroy the right wing of Horqin, and keep Wu Keshan in the province to block himself. But Zhu Hongsan can make Ezhe flawless to become this Great Khan, Ezhe is right, Wu Keshan is used to block him.
Although Ezhe objected, there was nothing he could do, his Great Khan was recaptured with the help of the Ming Dynasty, and Ezhe only objected twice and then disappeared. However, Ezhe was very opposed to Zhu Hongsan's decision to send a minister in Mongolia to Mongolia, what is a minister in Mongolia? Isn't it the spokesman of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty and the emperor of the Great Khan of Mongolia? Ezhe also wants to regain the glory of Genghis Khan, so he naturally doesn't want another emperor to appear above him.
However, although Ezhe opposes it, there is still no way, a weak country has no diplomacy, so you have nothing to oppose? In the end, Zhu Hongsan's words, you don't agree with the minister in Mongolia, that Lao Tzu won't do it, you Mongolian Khan love whoever you want! When he heard Zhu Hongsan say this, he swallowed his anger and agreed.
Although Ezhe agreed to have a minister in Mongolia in the royal court, the calculation in his heart was to wait for his strength to recover after more than ten years, and then he would not do what he wanted. Ezhe thinks very well, but Zhu Hongsan is also a well-known treacherous and cunning, so can he easily achieve his goal?
Zhu Hongsan's method is very simple, the first is to give Lamaism privileges, this has reached an agreement with the Mongolian living Buddha Zhanabazar, and now all Mongolian tribes believe in Lamaism, so there is no problem with this one.
The second article is the set of Tui En Ling played by Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, Zhu Hongsan stipulated that the Mongolian princes should divide the property equally among all their sons, whether they are concubines or concubines, this article has won the support of all the concubines of the Mongolian princes, plus the concubines' mothers are all beautiful little wives, naturally more popular than the old and yellow wives, so there is no problem with this one.
The third is the means used by the Manchus to deal with the Mongol tribes in later generations, dividing pastures for all tribes according to the population of the Mongol tribes for grazing cattle and sheep, and at the same time, without the consent of the minister in Mongolia, the tribes strictly prohibit cross-border grazing. This one looks good, but on the surface, it ensures the rights and interests of small Mongolian tribes, allowing them to gain living space under the cracks of several large tribes. But behind this article is Zhu Hongsan's killer in order to limit the unification of Mongolia, so that Mongolia will never become a unified tribe again, and it will completely end the northern border troubles of the Central Plains Dynasty.
Zhu Hongsan's three are to suppress the Mongolian aristocracy and give the middle and lower herdsmen and small tribes a way to live, so the lower Mongolian class is grateful to Zhu Hongsan, but the Mongolian upper class still has some objections. But the Mongolian upper echelons are now frightened by Zhu Hongsan, and they all have the intention of sending this murderous demon king away quickly, so they agree to pass several terms for Zhu Hongsan.
In addition to these main terms, the Kuritai Conference also gave Zhu Hongsan a big hat, that is, Tian Khan. This term was given to Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty by the nomads in those years, proving that the Li Tang Dynasty had absolute domination over the Saiwai grassland. But with the Anshi Rebellion, this name became unworthy of the name. The later Song Dynasty did not even occupy the sixteen states of Yanyun, let alone subdue the nomads.
In the early Ming Dynasty, the period of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di was not bad, but it was only less than a hundred years, and the Ming Dynasty was basically on the defensive against the nomads after that. Now the Mongolian tribes will give the title of this heavenly khan to Zhu Hongsan, one is the Ming Dynasty army coming to the city, it is really impossible to beat others. Another is that the three proposed by Zhu Hongsan did leave a way for the small and medium-sized tribes to live, so these small and medium-sized tribes supported Zhu Hongsan from their hearts to become the Heavenly Khan.
This name Zhu Hongsan didn't take it to heart, in his eyes, no name was as good as strength, if he was still biased in a corner of Guangdong, these Mongolian barbarians would naturally not think of giving themselves such a title as Tian Khan. It wasn't that he led the troops to subdue the Mongolian tribes, and these guys were convinced to give this title, so Zhu Hongsan didn't pay much attention to these vain things.
Zhu Hongsan doesn't value it, but it doesn't mean that the literati under his command don't value it, Chen Mingxia who came with him was overjoyed, and the name of Tian Khan represents the absolute submission of the Mongolian tribes, and it also represents the Mongolian tribes from today to officially belong to the sphere of influence of the Chinese civilization circle.
Although the international emphasis on power is both axiom and cannon is justice, after all, everyone is a civilized person, and although they use all kinds of shady means behind their backs, they still have to maintain that trace of civilized dignity on the surface.
For example, the Beiyang government, which was weakened and weakened, added Yuan Shikai to the Qing Emperor's abdication edict that "it is still a complete territory of the Manchu, Han, Mongolian, Hui, and Tibetan ethnic groups, and is a great Republic of China", and the European and American powers immediately recognized that Mongolia and Tibet are the territory of the Republic of China.
Now Mongolia has given the title of Emperor Tian Khan of the Ming Dynasty, which also officially proves that the entire Mongolian tribes are courtiers of the Ming Dynasty, which is different from the vassals of Japan and Vietnam. As an understanding person, Chen Mingxia naturally knew the meaning, so he was ecstatic.
As a party concerned, Zhu Hongsan did not know the impact of such an illusory name on future generations, and now he is worried about whether he can rush to Shenyang before November.
Zhu Hongsan's northern tour originally wanted to solve the Mongolian problem and then go to Shenyang, and then rush back to Beijing before the Chinese New Year. However, the world is unpredictable, and who knows that the Mongolian issue has been delayed for so long, and now it is almost October, and the Mongolian issue has just ended.
The Mongolian steppe in the tenth lunar month is already very cold, and the temperature has dropped below zero at night. Zhu Hongsan's Ming army was all southerners, and although the logistics supply was good, it still caused some frostbite.
Another point that is most critical is the issue of weapons. Because Zhu Hongsan's muskets all use custom-packed gunpowder, lard and butter are used to coat the outer layer in order to prevent moisture. However, in the climate of Mongolia, the lard and butter are agglomerate, and the moisture-proof performance is greatly reduced. If he is fighting with the Mongols now, Zhu Hongsan estimates that he will suffer a lot of losses on this side.
Therefore, Zhu Hongsan had to rush to Shenyang while the weather was still good, if he waited until the heavy snow closed the road in November, it would be too dangerous to stay in Mongolia.
After the meeting was held, Zhu Hongsan immediately set up troops and rushed to Shenyang. In the Tongliao generation of the Horqin Department in later generations, according to the distance of the road, Zhu Hongsan should go to Jilin first, and then go south to Shenyang. This was also the route that Zhu Hongsan had scheduled at that time, first going to Jilin to reward meritorious soldiers, but now Jilin can't go, so he has to go south to Shenyang directly.
Zhu Hongsan took the Ming army to hurry up and finally rushed to Tielingwei, that is, the periphery of Shenyang, before the first heavy snowfall, and Zhu Hongsan finally breathed a sigh of relief when he arrived here, after all, he entered his own territory.
When he arrived at Tieling, he also entered the sphere of influence of the Northeast Governor, and Zhao Guodong, the Governor of the Northeast, came to Tieling with all the civil and military ministers to welcome His Majesty in person.
Zhao Guodong led the ministers to wait outside Tieling City for a long time, and when he saw Zhu Hongsan's Luan driving arrived, he hurriedly knelt down and shouted: "Minister Zhao Guodong, together with all the ministers, wait for my majesty, long live, long live, long live!" ”
Zhu Hongsan came out of Luan's car, smiled and helped Zhao Guodong up: "Dog, get up, you and I are one, what are you talking about!" Zhao Guodong followed Zhu Hongsan when he didn't make a career, so he was naturally a henchman among his henchmen and a descendant within his lineage.
Zhao Guodong stood up and said with a smile: "The minister heard that His Majesty showed his might in Mongolia, and the Mongolian barbarians who fought were crying wolves, and the minister really wanted to rush in person and fight side by side with His Majesty instead of the top three!" ”
Zhu Hongsan's Imperial Forest Army's head Han Sanqiang's status is not low, but Han Sanqiang has always been by Zhu Hongsan's side, so his prestige is not obvious. Han Sanqiang is a princeling, and Zhao Guodong is a party of King Qin, so Zhao Guodong said so when he met today.
However, because Han Sanqiang was introverted, he didn't want to compete with Zhao Guodong, so after hearing Zhao Guodong say this, Han Sanqiang smiled and said: "The Governor is joking, the Mongolian tribes are not strong, and compared with Liaodong, the task of the Governor is heavier!" ”
Zhu Hongsan knew that these two generals belonged to different camps, and they would pinch each other when they met, but Zhu Hongsan didn't want to stop them.
Zhao Guodong was very happy when he saw that Han Sanqiang had retreated, and then said to Zhu Hongsan: "Your Majesty, the weather is cold now, please drive Luan into the city to rest!" Tieling is less than 100 miles away from Shenyang, and we can arrive in one day! ”
Zhu Hongsan nodded, but he didn't want to go directly to Shenyang, he still had a few important things to do in the northeast.
The first thing is to go to his hometown to see, Zhu Hongsan was born in Fushun in his previous life, worked in a township, and now he finally returned to the Northeast to see what his hometown was like five hundred years ago.
The second thing is to go to the Salhu battlefield to take a look, where the Ming Dynasty killed and wounded 50,000 people, and at the same time completely lost the initiative in the Liaodong battlefield. And Nurhachi has gradually grown stronger since this battle, so the battle of Sarhu is the beginning of everything, and Zhu Hongsan has to go to see such an important place.
