His Majesty the Ming Emperor of Zhangjiakou Fort summoned Lin Dan Khan, the Khan of the Chahar Department of Shunping
On the 3rd day of the first month of February, His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, in order to consolidate the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and the Tatar Chahar Ministry, left Beijing on the 1st day of the first month of February, and ordered Lin Dan Khan, the Khan of the Chahar Ministry, to rush to Zhangjiakou Fort to meet with Li Mingrui, the secretary of the Wenhuadian University Scholar Department and the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites、......
This is a newspaper of Daming Daily, as mentioned above, Zhu Youxiao has now become an emperor who is not willing to be lonely, and he left for Zhangjiakou Fort again after staying in the capital for two months. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Now that His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youxiao, has become much more gentle, and he doesn't like to kill his family anymore, but if he doesn't agree with him, he wants you to go to the west to support the great development.
Anyway, according to the report of the governors of Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou, many Yi people have now begun to learn Chinese characters and carry out sinicization, and these people who are extremely annoying to His Majesty the Emperor can play a great role here.
Zhangjiakou Fort was originally an important military stronghold of the Ming Dynasty's Wanquan Right Guard, but after Zhengde, Zhangjiakou Fort gradually became an important trade market inside and outside the Guan, and now because the Chahar Department is inclined to the Ming Dynasty, in order to show goodwill, Zhu Youxiao is directly allowed to open the gate of the Great Realm, allowing the Chahar Department to import and trade with the local people.
Now, Zhu Youxiao's decision to summon Lin Dan Khan, the Khan of the Chahar Ministry, in Zhangjiakou Fort has the intention of elevating the political status of Zhangjiakou Fort, and Zhu Youxiao has also asked Huo Weihua, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, to start building a palace here with the Mongolian king's tent as the main style.
Zhu Youxiao planned to use this place as a base to meet the Mongol princes in the future, that is, to control the Mongol tribes, and in the future, the Ming Dynasty would definitely not isolate Mongolia into another country with just one Great Wall.
"Lin Dan Khan, from today on, you are the king of Shunping of my Ming Dynasty, I recognize your special status in the Chahar Department, and promise to give you the land of the Horqin Department, the Ming Dynasty only needs the population and wealth of Horqin, but you must remember that you must serve my Ming Dynasty for generations, and you are not allowed to provoke side affairs, if there is a dispute, you can be dealt with by commissioners on both sides, but if you dare to violate the Ming Dynasty, I will not be spared!"
Zhu Youxiao said to Lin Danhan very seriously, Lin Danhan's face was a little unhappy, but he had to admit that there was nothing excessive, after all, if the two parties want to unite, they must also have some commitments.
Therefore, Lin Dan Khan smiled bitterly and nodded, his lifelong wish was to unify the Mongolian tribes and become the real king of the steppe, so he was willing to temporarily unite with the Ming Dynasty.
"In addition, how to give preferential trade taxes to the two parties, how large the workshops and mansions that the Royal Bank and the Royal Industrial Company can build in your Chahar Department, how the Ming Dynasty subsidizes you to build an ordnance station, how much firearms you need to borrow to buy, how much interest, and how to repay them, these will be discussed by Li Mingrui of the Cabinet and Guo Yunhou of the Household Department with your Taishi, let's watch the show, I have admired your Chahar Ministry dance for a long time."
Zhu Youxiao also followed the customs of the locals, and exchanged respects with Lin Dan Khan with mare's milk wine, and Lin Dan Khan saw that His Majesty the Ming Emperor was so approachable, and he could naturally talk about his own culture, and seemed to know a lot, so he was in a much better mood for a while, and started talking with Zhu Youxiao.
As for how Li Mingrui signed an agreement on military and economic matters with the Taishi of the Chahar Ministry, Zhu Youxiao did not have to worry, with the cunning of Li Mingrui's guy, it is estimated that these people from the Chahar Department can only be fooled, just like the stupid Eight Banners disciples of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in later generations, the ones they saved by tightening their belts were sold by others, and they also helped others count the money.
And here, Lin Dan Khan was a little nervous because he drank some wine, so he said bluntly: "Your Majesty the Emperor, don't look at your Ming Dynasty occupies the country of my Dayuan, now there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and the wealth is countless, but it is still not the opponent of my grassland cavalry, although it has spent a lot of money to build a lot of important towns, and barely hold it, but if you do it with a real knife and a real gun, you are not an opponent, but it is a pity that my grassland departments are a plate of loose sand, you fight for me, kill each other, so that you Daming has the opportunity to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight." ”
Zhu Youxiao smiled and said nothing, thinking that although Lin Danhan was a keen observer of the current situation, he was not a meticulous person who dared to say anything.
And Zhu Youxiao was not angry, so he replied: "It is true, what King Shunping said is very true, King Shunping should not forget, it is not only my Ming who sits on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, but also Jiannu, although I have the heart to guard against you, but it is harmless to you, but the one called the Qing Dynasty has coveted your Mongolian tribes for a long time." ”
Lin Dan Khan nodded, he has been to Middle-earth since he was a child, so his sinicization is relatively large, and he can understand the official dialect of Fengyang, and even speak, and he also knows a lot about Chinese history, so he said: "Your Majesty the Emperor, you are right, you are the Great Song Dynasty, rich but poor and weak to be bullied, without the ambition to dominate the world, only seeking partial peace; And that Jiannu is as insatiable as the Jin country, snakes and scorpions, and has to be guarded against, so I Lin Dan Khan wants to unite with you and fight against that Jiannu together, for you, I am relieved, you Chahar can make your hundreds of thousands of troops dare not come north, and now you are going to attack the Khalkha Department, in my opinion, it is better for us to help you, as long as you are willing to give enough silver, women are also fine. ”
"King Lao Shunping bothered, if you win or not, just look at the result", Zhu Youxiao said, and saw Xu Xianchun suddenly open the curtain and come in, Zhu Youxiao saw that he was happy, so he deliberately said: "King Shunping is not an outsider, just say it, what happened." ”
"Yes! Back to Your Majesty, Ao Bai came to report that our Western Route Army had defeated the cavalry of the Khalkha Ministry of Mutar three days ago, annihilated 13,000 Khalkha cavalry, and captured 5,400 people. ”
Xu Xianchun's words made Lin Danhan, who could understand Chinese, not come back to his senses for a while, and the cup in his hand had fallen to the ground at some point.
Zhu Youxiao was not surprised and continued to tear the roast leg of mutton: "What a big deal, but the small Khalkha Department is just a small Khalkha Department, and it is worth asking for credit in such a hurry, telling Ao Bai that his Western Route Army must defeat the Horqin Department at the end of this month, if it is a day late, I will not count him as meritorious!" ”
"Your Majesty the Emperor, if this king remembers correctly, there are more than 30,000 cavalry in the Khalkha Department, and there are only more than 30,000 people in the Chakha Department this time, how did you annihilate more than 10,000 cavalry in the Khalkha Department so quickly, this, this is impossible!"
Lin Danhan asked with some surprise.
But Zhu Youxiao said indifferently: "Alas, it's a very simple matter, as soon as my Wang Shi arrives, the Khalkha Department is not an opponent, there are more than 10,000 people, if it is my own expedition, the Khalkha Department will have disappeared from the map long ago." ”
