Chapter 470: The Khazar Without Officials
……
The Khazar Khanate granted military access to the Eastern Army, but this military governor was not actually on the surface.
Khazar Khan Ashina Zachariah asked Dream Lionheart to come in a low-key manner, and then left in a low-key manner.
In other words, the so-called military access is only a verbal statement, and this military access is only temporary.
In other words, the Khazar Khanate only allowed the expeditionary army to go back and forth once, and if there were more, then they would not be welcome.
Dream Lionheart was not surprised by this, the Khazar Khanate was able to give its own military access in the eyes of Dream Lionheart.
Anyway, he didn't plan to leave the Khazar Khanate from time to time.
Wait for Dream Lionheart to take the advance army of the Cuman Khanate, and make the army drive through the Cuman Khanate to take the small territory bordering the Cuman Khanate and the Chinese Empire.
Then there would be no need for the Eastern Army to pass through the territory of the Khazar Khanate.
At the same time, in the court of the Khazar Khanate, the Khazar Emperor Ashina Zachariah sat on the throne wearing a Chinese crown and waited quietly for something.
It can be said that the Khan has been transformed into a lot by the Chinese now, and the hair of the Khan who is bound in the crown is tied in the manner of the Chinese Empire.
Khazar Khan Ashina Zechariah was voluntarily Chineseized, after all, in his cognition, his ancestors were originally descendants of the Chinese.
And now the system of the Chinese Empire makes Ashina Zachariah very ten, and the lofty appearance of the Holy Son of Heaven of the Chinese Empire is also envied by Ashina Zacharias.
Khazar Khan Ashina Zechariah knew that the Holy Son of Heaven of the Chinese Empire could be described as heaven in the Chinese Empire, but he did not have the same rights as the Holy Son of Heaven of China in the Khazar Khanate.
Ashina Zachariah knew in his heart that his power was not even comparable to that of Basil, the emperor of the Byzantine Empire in Eastern Rome. Macedonia.
Because of this, Ashina Zecharias wanted to change customs at home, just as the Chinese Empire and the Kingdom of Poland did.
So that the people of the country know who their ancestors were, and Ashina Zechariah did exactly that.
And the results are not bad, but it is only a good job of reforming customs and customs, and the forms of secession in various parts of the Khazar Khanate still exist more or less.
Ashina Zachariah thought it would be easy to solve these things, but when he got started, he realized that things were far from being as simple as he imagined.
Before, Ashina Zacharias didn't understand why the Huaxia Empire dared to attack cities and territories so rampantly.
Now Ashina Zachariah understands, because there are many low-level officials in the Chinese Empire, and the bottom of the Chinese Empire is far from satisfying the low-level officials.
Therefore, the Chinese Empire can conquer cities and territories unscrupulously, because only when there is more land, the officials at the bottom can have real positions.
The retired soldiers of the Chinese Empire are one of the low-level officials of the Chinese Empire, but the retired military population is very large, and the government departments set up in the Chinese Empire are far from enough for people's needs.
The problem with the Khazar Khanate was that there were no low-level officials, and likewise there were not many middle- and upper-level officials.
Now Ashina Zechariah's own imperial government officials only have Shangshu in various departments, but there are few people under the command of Shangshu in each department, or even no one at all.
This is not a trivial problem, and for a government that wants to centralize power, it means that the government of the Khazar Khanate is completely impossible.
If the officials are not enough, how can you centralize power, when Ashina Zachariah had just seized power, his officials could not even fully govern the capital of their own Khanate, how could they govern the place.
Of course, this refers to the court officials hastily created by the Khazar Khanate, which can still be managed if the tribes of the Khanate knew about the jurisdiction according to the previous ones.
It's just that that kind of management does not make the country stronger, but rather makes the country have no roots.
As a steppe man, Ashina Zachariah naturally knew where the herdsmen of the powerful khanates that had fallen before him had gone.
Those herders are now either herdsmen of the Khazar Khanate, or people of the Chinese Empire, or they have moved west with the Magyars to Lizhou in the Chinese Empire.
These herders only knew that they were grassland people, but did not know their true identity, and the collapse of the country was nothing more than a change of master for them.
They behaved very normally about it, and the Khazar Khanate was a little better off than the other countries.
After all, the Khazar Khanate was by no means the most civilized of the steppe khanates, and after their conversion to Judaism, they were much more cohesive than the nomads of other countries.
But that's all, the territory of the Khazar Khanate was divided, and each tribe had its own pastures.
To put it bluntly, Ashina Zechariah is their co-master, and they often have internal friction with each other, which makes Ashina Zechariah determined to truly unify the Khazar Khanate.
This makes the Khazar Khanate a true empire, one that is not weaker than the Chinese Empire and the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire.
Over the years, the Khazar Khanate has been exploring how to do it, whether to learn from the Chinese Empire or from the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire.
On the one hand, they thought like this, and on the other hand, they had already secretly wanted to learn from the Eastern Roman, Byzantine Empire, and the Chinese Empire.
They were comparing, they were comparing the systems of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire and the Chinese Empire which was more suitable for the Khazar Khanate.
In fact, they somewhat believed that the political system of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire was the most suitable for the Khazar Khanate.
However, the Khazar Khan, Ashina Zecharias, wanted the Khazar Khanate to be as centralized as the Chinese Empire.
The system of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire dictated that the governors of the provinces had absolute rights, and they could even send troops to attack the imperial city.
The Khazar Khanate thought that with reference to the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire, it would be better to continue as it was.
Ashina Zechariah has also been compromising for so many years, thinking of some system that fits the national conditions of the Khazar Khanate.
But no matter how much Ashina Zechariah compromised, the high-ranking officials of the Khazar Khanate believed that such people as officials must be vigorously cultivated.
Because with the presence of officials in the capital of the Khazar Khanate, they found that the order of the Khazar capital and other aspects had been improved to a certain extent.
Therefore, they also hoped that their territory would have real officials, officials comparable to those of the Chinese Empire and the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire.
The Khazar Khanate also has its own pride, they are known as the first overlord of the steppe!
However, they still couldn't compare with the Chinese Empire and the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire, which made the Khazar Khanate's self-esteem a little uncomfortable.
