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.

……

The current system of the Khazar Khanate is also funny, and the khans of the various parts of the Khazar Khanate do not want to give power to Ashna Zechariah.

But they also yearn for the Yiyantang like the Huaxia Empire, and each of them hopes that they can be absolute gods in their own territory like the Holy Son of Heaven of the Huaxia Empire.

Therefore, they very much supported Ashina Zecharias to study the Chinese Empire, and funded the gentlemen of the Chinese Empire to come to the Khazar Khanate to train students.

But on the other hand, they were unwilling to accept the centralized political system of the Chinese Empire.

To put it bluntly, the people of the Khazar Khanate, from the emperor Khan Ashina Zechariah, to the khans in various places, all hoped to have a civilization like the Chinese Empire, but they were unwilling to hand over power.

The Chinese Empire, of course, wanted to see a pro-Chinese Empire and nominally unified but in fact divided Khazar Khanate.

Therefore, the court of the Chinese Empire and the Son of Heaven signaled to the merchants that they could reveal the feudal system of the Western Zhou Dynasty to the officials of the Khazar Khanate.

The Chinese Empire was very active in conveying institutional ideas that echoed the interests of the Chinese Empire.

Therefore, the Khazar Khanate was more or less influenced by the Chinese Empire, and the various tribal leaders and khans of the Khazar Khanate thought that this system was really good.

But Ashina Zechariah was not a fool, and the people in the court of the Khazar Khanate were not fools, and they naturally saw that such a system seemed to be suitable for the Khazar Khanate.

But if one vassal is very powerful one day, then the other vassals can only be annexed by powerful vassals.

Since they were court officials of the Khazar Khanate, they still had to think about the future of the Khanate.

However, they later discovered that the Chinese Empire seemed to have established a state pastoral system, and their eyes suddenly brightened, and even the Khazar Khan Ashina Zechariah thought that the state pastoral system should be suitable for them.

Because in Ashnazachariah's view, the state pastoral system was more than enough to satisfy his own demand for centralized power.

It also allows people in each region to have a certain degree of autonomy, but in general, it is still a centralized system.

Therefore, Ashina Zacharias thought that their Khazar Khanate should learn more about the state pastoral system from the Chinese Empire.

Then speed up the training of talents, train officials, the Khazar Khanate now lacks nothing, after all, the Khazar Khanate did not get involved in the disputes between China and Rome, and what they lack most now is officials.

The Khazar Khan Ashna Zechariah needed officials to help him and his court manage their affairs, and the khans and tribal leaders in various places also needed officials.

They are all people who have tasted the benefits of officials, but what they don't know is that officials and people like them are naturally opposites.

To be precise, the tribes of the Khazar Khanate needed not officials, but vassals with the character of officials.

Officials and aristocrats are inherently opposed, and if there are aristocratic officials, they are not very good, and officials and nobles will be suppressed step by step.

The officials hoped that the imperial power would not go to the countryside, and at the same time, they also hoped that the nobles would not be able to control the township landlords, so that the officials could become landlords.

Therefore, it can be clearly understood that the Khazar Khanate did not want to have officials, but wanted to have retainers who could serve themselves.

Just like the Huaxia Empire, the Huaxia Empire, from the prime minister to the officials of Zhongshu Province to the local officials, they are just retainers under the command of Gaoyang Yajun.

Ashina Zechariah of the Khazar Khanate also wanted officials, but he had not yet fully realized that the so-called officials were his vassals.

So he sent some of his officials to the local areas for experimentation, so that some of them gradually changed from his retainers to the vassals of enemy tribal leaders and khans.

Ashina Zachariah has not yet clearly recognized this, and when he fully realizes this, I am afraid that his bowels will be repentant.

The officials he sent in the past may now have changed from ministers to ministers. Reading a book and finding the latest chapters by yourself? You're out, WeChat attention Beauty editor helps you find books! It's really a good book to flirt with girls!
