Text Chapter 887 Cutting the land for a thousand miles
The Dalai Lama couldn't help but feel angry when he saw that the Ming Dynasty emperor didn't say anything, but he couldn't help it, and now the Dzungar Ministry had occupied the Yushu area of Qinghai, and then he was about to enter Tibet, and he couldn't find reinforcements, so the entire Usizang would be out of his rule.
The Dalai Lama had no choice but to say in a low voice: "Your Majesty, it has been nearly three hundred years since Uszang surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, and the Tusi and Zongben in various places have also been appointed by the Ming Dynasty. Speaking of this, the Da Lai hesitated, he knew that he would not send troops without giving benefits to this vampire emperor, and there was no way Da Lai had no choice but to say: "If the Ming Dynasty sends reinforcements to drive out the Dzungar Department, Wu Si Zang is willing to cede the land to His Majesty the Ming Emperor in Qinghai!" ”
The Dalai Lama has calculated in his heart that the Ta'er Temple in Qinghai has always been disobedient to him, so it is better to throw this burden to Daming and let them have a headache.
Zhu Hongsan listened to his Qinghai land, Qinghai Zhu Hongsan knew that it was completely a place where rabbits didn't, and what Zhu Hongsan wanted was the Kham area near Sichuan and Shaanxi.
The Tibetan region is divided into three large regions from the Yuan Dynasty* according to the different dialect areas, and most of the plateau west of Lhasa is called "Weizang", that is, today's Lhasa, Shannan, Shigatse and Ali areas. The Wei-Tibet region is densely populated and is the political, economic, religious and cultural center of Tibet.
"Defending Tibet" is the native of the Tibetan nationality and is the most basic component of the Tibetan nationality. Geographically, Wei-Tibet is centered on the Yarlung Zangbo River Basin, and the northern and southern Tibet regions are bounded by the Gangdis Mountains and the large fault zone at the southern foot of the Nianqing Tanggula Mountains. The river valley and basin here are interspersed, the land is fertile, the rainfall is abundant, suitable for the growth of crops, and it is the cradle of Tibetan civilization.
The Ganzi and Aba regions of Sichuan Province in the Hengduan Mountains, Qamdo in Tibet and Diqing in Yunnan Province are called "Kham". In Tibetan, "Kang" means frontier land, and "Kang" as a regional concept roughly covers present-day Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Sichuan, Muli Tibetan Autonomous County in Liangshan Prefecture, Qamdo Prefecture in Tibet, Guoluo and Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefectures in Qinghai, and Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Yunnan. The Kham region is located in the Sino-Tibetan transition zone, and for most of the Qing Dynasty, it was under the direct jurisdiction of the minister in Tibet, so the Kham people have always had a pro-mainland central mentality.
Amdo is also known as "Aduo", the center of Amdo Tibetans is in the area from Anima Qing Snow Mountain to Qinghai Lake, including Qinghai Huangnan, Guoluo Prefecture, and Qinghai Lake area. In Gannan Prefecture of Gansu, northern Aba Prefecture of Sichuan and Seda County of Ganzi Prefecture, the Amdo Tibetans were derived from the Qiang tribes such as Tuyuhun and Dangxiang in the Tang Dynasty. Since the Amdo region is greatly influenced by the Mongols and Han Chinese, it also has distinct characteristics of these two ethnic groups in terms of customs and body characteristics. The Amdo area is a vast grassland, with herds of cattle and sheep, and is the most important pastoral area in Tibet, with many good horses, so it is called "horse domain".
Since ancient times, there have been only two ways to enter Tibet, one is to enter Tibet through Shaanxi and Qinghai, and the other is the Kham region of Sichuan, which is the main route from the interior to Tibet and has important military and strategic significance. In order to prevent Tibet* independence during the later Republic of China, the central government dismembered Tibet and separated the Kham region to form Xikang Province, which was revoked and merged into Sichuan Province in 1955.
In Zhu Hongsan's plan, the entire Qinghai-Tibet Plateau was too large to be conducive to the central government
control, so it must be dismembered, divided according to the provincial system of later generations. Therefore, transportation arteries such as Kham and Qinghai must be in the hands of the central government.
However, now Zhu Hongsan's strength in the northwest can only be extended to Suzhou Wei, and further on is the territory of the Mongols, and now the Ming Dynasty has not yet torn its face with the Dzungar Khanate, so it is impossible to enter Tibet from the north. If you can't do it in the north, then only the west is left, which is the Kham region. It is close to the Sichuan Basin, and Sichuan, needless to say, is the land of abundance and a gathering place for Han people, so it can provide perfect logistics guarantee for the troops entering Tibet.
Zhu Hongsan heard that the Dalai Lama wanted to give him land, and said with a smile: "Great Lama, Qinghai is not good, it is too far, but there is a good place!" It's the Kham region, why don't the Great Lama give me this place! ”
The Dalai Lama thought about it for a while: "Your Majesty the Emperor, I don't know how many places you want?" ”
Zhu Hongsan was overjoyed when he heard the Dalai Lama say this, and said directly: "I want to go from the land east of Jiangka, Ba'an, and Dongpu, what does the Great Lama think?" ”
When the Dalai Lama heard that this emperor was too ruthless, according to his division of the entire Jinsha River basin to the Ming Dynasty, half of the land set aside was the size of Sichuan Province, and more than half of the entire Kham region was divided, which was absolutely not good.
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely not good, the Kham area is full of Tibetans, and so many little monks can't explain to the local Tusi!"
Zhu Hongsan heard that Dalai Lai disagreed, and scolded with his eyes: "What? How did you say yes just now? Do you want to repent now? Do you know why my Ming Dynasty has not taken back Hamiwei for a long time, because the Dzungar monks said that as long as I don't care about the bad things in your Tibetan area, he will give me Hami, Shazhou, and a large area of land south of Anding after the deed is done, do you know how big the land is? ”
Hami and Anding were originally the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and in the fourth year of Yongle, the imperial court set up Hami Wei here to manage the vast surrounding land. However, although this is the land of the Ming Dynasty, the local commanders are all local Tusi, and Hamiwei has experienced a total of fifteen rulers from Wunasuri to Baiya.
However, in the second year of Chenghua, Tulupan Tusi Aheima, who was on the edge of Hami, sent troops to capture Hami, and Ma Wensheng, the secretary of the Ming Dynasty's military department, and others were determined to restore Hami. In eight years, Xu Jin was the governor of Gansu, sent troops to recover Hami, and still governed its land with Shaanxi. However, due to the repeated attacks of Turpan, it is rare to live in peace. In the Zhengde period, there was a miasma of smoke in the imperial court, and there was no one to manage Hami, which was thousands of miles away, so Hamiwei completely became the territory of Turpan.
However, when Dzungaria arose, the small Turpan was the opponent of the Mongol army, and it became the territory of Dzungaria. Zhu Hongsan said that the Sangha wanted to return Hami to the Ming Dynasty purely to deceive the rural people from Tibet, and with the strength of the Sangge, the Russians in the extreme north did not pay attention to it, and a small Zhu Hongsan could be seen there.
But the Dalai Lama didn't know this, he still thought that the two tigers of Junggar and Daming were going to join forces and eat his little sheep, but now after listening to Zhu Hongsan's flickering, he was a little frightened and couldn't make up his mind.
Zhu Hongsan said with a smile: "Great Lama, it's nothing to tell you the truth, I'm ready to take advantage of your resistance to Dzungaria, send troops to occupy the Kham region, and then march to defend Tibet, and defend Tibet and Dzungaria."
The Great Khan of the Sangha was divided into two. Then unite with the Kazakh Khanate to the east of you and destroy the Dzungars together, what do you think, Great Lama? ”
Zhu Hongsan's words frightened the Dalai Lama, and the Dzungar tribe is also a Mongol and also believes in Lamaism, but they do not believe in the Gelug sect, but in the Nyingma sect of the White Sect. The dispute between the Gelug and Nyingma sects is an internal contradiction in Lamaism. If the Kazakh Khanate from outside the country were Muslim, would the Lamaist monks still have a good fate if they entered the Us-Tibetan region? Wars of religion have always been very tragic.
The Dalai Lama didn't know that Zhu Hongsan was completely blowing the conch here, but what Zhu Hongsan said was not unreasonable, according to Zhu Hongsan's long-term plan, after eliminating the Dzungaria, he would have to deal with the gang of whiteheads in Central Asia.
The Dalai Lama thought for a long time, the two powers should harm each other, and it seems that it is best to unite with the Ming Dynasty to resist Dzungaria.
"Okay, Your Majesty the Emperor, the little monk agrees to cede the Kham region to the Ming Dynasty, but the little monk has a request, in the Kham region, I must maintain the missionary rights of my Gelug sect!"
Zhu Hongsan was very happy to hear that the Dalai Lama had agreed, and now there is a channel to enter Tibet, and as for the simple right to preach, anyway, the Tibetans in the Kham region have been practicing Lamaism for hundreds of years, and there is nothing to follow.
Of course, just asking for some land is not Zhu Hongsan's fundamental goal, Zhu Hongsan's ultimate goal is to garrison troops in Tibet, and only by obeying his own orders and stationing troops in Tibet can he ensure his control over Tibet.
Tibet is now nominally under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty also set up prefectures at all levels in Tibet, but the local commanders are all local Tusi, and the central government of the Ming Dynasty only symbolizes the right to rule Tibet. Zhu Hongsan believed that in order to completely occupy Tibet, it was necessary to set up a minister stationed in Tibet in Lhasa, as well as to garrison the army, and that the Kashag Tusi in various localities should also be appointed by the minister stationed in Tibet.
Of course, the goal of the garrison cannot be achieved overnight, and the occupation of the Kham region is only a prelude, and the next step is to gradually occupy Tibet with the help of the threat of the Dzungar Ministry.
The agreement with the Dalai Lama was reached, the Dalai Lama left the palace to rest in the newly built lama temple for him, Zhu Hongsan also returned to his office in the Qianqing Palace, and the first assistant Feng was also called by Zhu Hongsan, after all, he had just taken a big advantage in the Dalai Lama, and he still needed to discuss with the cabinet how to appoint local officials.
Zhu Hongsan changed into his regular clothes and came out, and said to Feng Ziyong with a smile: "How about the second brother, today I have expanded the land for Daming again!" ”
Zhu Hongsan is very happy, after all, he traveled from later generations and experienced the humiliating history of land reparations in the late Qing Dynasty, so Zhu Hongsan has a heartfelt love for the land.
But Feng Ziyong didn't think so, the end of the Ming Dynasty was not the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty was not at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and the surrounding vassals could deal with it, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty occupied the land of the Central Plains, not because his civilization was better than the Ming Dynasty, but when the Ming Dynasty was in turmoil, he entered the Central Plains. Therefore, in the eyes of these scholars, they look down on these barbarians around them, and at the same time, they have no desire to occupy these barbarian lands.
In the eyes of these scholars, my Ming Dynasty has been the kingdom of the Celestial Empire since ancient times, what are the surrounding barren lands going to do? Farming does not grow crops, the climate is not suitable for the Han people to live, and sending troops to occupy it also costs money and food, so it is better not to occupy it.
