Yushu is not only the geographical center of Duogan, but also has a resounding name. As for the earthquake that occurred hundreds of years later, in fact, the magnitude was not high, and it was only because it was a Tibetan living area that the impact was particularly great, and according to the current development trend, it may not be possible to say whether there are Tibetans here in hundreds of years.

With Yushu as the government, the future of Duogan, and Yushu and Kemu as the economic center, Zhu Youzhen drew a blueprint in his heart.

But the name Duogan is a little too Tibetan, and a new Chinese name must be established.

One by one, Zhu Youzhen filtered in his mind the provinces of later generations, Jiangsu-Jiangling and Suzhou, Anhui-Anqing and Huizhou.

Yushu, Kemu - Yuke Province.

No, the combination of "guest" and "wood" is a Tibetan name.

Zhu Youzhen remembered the name of Kemu's later generations, Qamdo.

Yushu, Qamdo - Yuchang, yes, Yuchang Province.

June 15 is the day of the court meeting, and today's court meeting is dedicated to the discussion of the Uszangdu Division and the Duogandu Division.

"Your Majesty, since Wusizang and Duogan have returned to the embrace of the Ming Dynasty, more Tibetans should be allowed to read the books of the sages, so as not to cause trouble again for these outsiders." Education Minister Kong Zhenyun likes to take the lead in order to attract the attention of the ministers.

"Aiqing is reasonable, we should use the book of sages to educate them more." Zhu Youzhen also believes that when the Ming Dynasty was strong, only by using Han culture to assimilate the Tibetans could they establish a sense of identity with the Ming Dynasty in their hearts.

"Your Majesty, are the armies of Uszang and Dogan going to withdraw?" Cao Wenzhao was the chief of staff, and he had to supply grain, grass, and materials to the army, so he was naturally concerned about the stationing of the army.

"Well, the army is going to be withdrawn, but it can't be withdrawn completely, without the garrison of the Ming Dynasty, how to ensure the interests of the Ming Dynasty and the Han people? If the army is not stationed, it will not be the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and sooner or later it will become a vassal state. ”

……

Military victory is always an important key to resolving the political issue, and today's court meeting was very smooth, and a total of six consensuses were reached:

1. Change the Duo Gandu Division to Yuchang Province, the capital of Yushu, and enforce the sinicization of the local Tibetan and Mongolian populations, and if there are opponents, after confiscating the main property, they will be expelled from the country, and those who dare to resist will be killed;

2. Change the capital of Wusi Tibet to Tibet Province and the capital of Lhasa. Due to the vast and sparsely populated population of Tibet Province, the total population is less than 300,000, and 30,000 Han military households who have lost their land are gradually relocated from Sichuan to the west, and gradually advance westward from the Gongbu area in eastern Tibet, abolishing the system of theocracy, local officials in Tibet Province are dispatched by the imperial court, and monks are not allowed to interfere in local government affairs, and no one is allowed to have an army except for the imperial court stationed in Tibet Province;

3. Zuo Liangyu's 14th Army withdrew to Shaanxi, Chen Qiyu's 15th Army was stationed in Yuchang Province, Mu Qiyuan's 19th Army was withdrawn to Yunnan, and Lin Chengxiang's 20th Army was stationed in Tibet Province.

4. Encourage Han Chinese to emigrate to the sparsely populated eastern part of Yuchang and Tibet provinces, and all new immigrants in the two places shall be given 30 mu of land by the local government for each ding, and all land shall be exempt from tax within three years and reduced by half within five years, and the original residents of the two provinces shall make up for the land of less than 30 mu, regardless of more than 30 mu;

5. Clean up the temple land in the two provinces, and report the truth to the truth, and the imperial court will approve the maximum land limit and the number of monks that each temple can have according to the population situation of each place;

6. Establish schools in the two provinces to teach the Chinese language and the books of the sages.

Zhu Youzhen smiled.

With the support of the army, the naturalization policy of Yuchang Province and the abolition of the theocratic system in Tibet Province can be guaranteed, and Yuchang and Tibet will truly become the 21st and 22nd provinces of the Ming Dynasty.

With the increase of the Han population in Tibet Province, the Han will gradually occupy a numerical advantage, and even if there is a referendum in the future, it will not be able to break away from the Ming Dynasty and become independent.

The strategy of naturalizing Han Chinese in Ngoc province will transform into a single Han ethnic group, as in the mainland.

The opening of schools in Yuchang and Tibet provinces can also promote the sinicization of some Tibetans and accelerate the return of Tibetans' hearts.

The court rejoiced.

At noon, Zhu Youzhen set up a banquet to entertain the ministers.

"Your Majesty, at present, the four seas are leveling, and the Ming Dynasty is thriving, all because of Your Majesty's wisdom and martial arts." Kong Zhenyun drank a few glasses of wine, and his face began to be ruddy, for him, there was no direct pressure like Jiannu, it was the four seas to be leveled.

"The four seas are leveling? Kong Aiqing knows which province in Daming has the most troops? "Zhu Youzhen has always been angry with the Mongols in the north, these nomads can't do construction, and the destruction is worse than pangolins.

"Of course it's Shaanxi, who doesn't know that there are 300,000 troops in the four towns of Shaanxi." Kong Zhenyun's mind is still somewhat clear.

"Then Kong Aiqing, do you know, why does Shaanxi have to station 300,000 troops?" Zhu Youzhen had to remind this military blind, but several important ministers nearby must have an idea in their hearts.

"Of course, for the sake of Tatar Mongolia, is it possible that His Majesty wants to fight again?" Kong Zhenyun drank a few glasses of wine, and his brain was not very bright, but he also slowly reacted, "Your Majesty, Yuchang and Tibet have only stopped the sword soldiers, but the Ming Dynasty has to cultivate and recuperate, there is no ten years, no, it is better to be a few decades, and it is difficult for the Ming Dynasty to recover its vitality." "Thinking about it, I don't think it's right, Daming's recent Northern Expedition and Southern Expedition seem to have earned a lot of silver, and there are not many dead, but the army has some banditry.

"Kong Aiqing rest assured, Da Ming wants to cultivate and recuperate, and he will not expedition to Tatar for the time being." Zhu Youzhen deliberately said vaguely, and many important ministers pricked up their ears to listen!

"Then the minister is relieved." Kong Zhenyun drank a few more sips of wine, his eyes narrowed even smaller, his alcohol consumption was not good, and he insisted on supporting the scene, if people didn't drink well, he was about to drink it.

Zhu Youzhen turned his gaze to Cao Wenzhao: "Cao Aiqing, how is the South China Sea Fleet formed?" ”

"Your Majesty, through the donations of various shipping companies and the construction of shipyards, there are now more than 700 warships, including 120 large Guangzhou ships, 210 medium-sized Fu ships, more than 400 small Cangshan ships, and more than 300 transport ships, which can transport 30,000 soldiers, including war materials, at one time."

"Thirty thousand? More powerful than the North Sea Fleet? Who is the commander of the South China Sea Fleet? Zhu Youzhen believed Napoleon's words, a sheep army led by a lion is always stronger than a lion army led by a sheep, as long as the officers are selected, soldiers can be trained in batches, but excellent commanders can not be intensively trained in a short time.

"Back to Your Majesty, there is no fleet commander yet, and the current commander and training is a guerrilla general, named Zheng Zhilong, who used to be engaged in maritime transportation along the coast, and many ships of the South China Sea Fleet are ships he used before." Cao Wenzhao didn't know if Zhu Youzhen was satisfied with Zheng Zhilong's pirate background, and he was uneasy.

"Zheng Zhilong?" Zhu Youzhen hesitated for a moment, "Let him enter Beijing quickly, I want to summon him." Zhu Youzhen's understanding of Zheng Zhilong is mainly because he knows that he has a son named Zheng Chenggong, a pirate, who commands 10,000 people to reach the sky, and has to command a regular navy of tens of thousands of people, Zhu Youzhen is still a little worried.

A pirate was born, who knows what he had in mind? Besides, many of the ships of the South China Sea Fleet were originally his, will he regard the South China Sea Fleet as his private property? Once Zheng Zhilong embraces his own troops, on the sea, Zhu Youzhen really has nothing to do.

The South China Sea Fleet was built by Zhu Youzhen with a lot of money, the purpose was to deal with Xiyi, if it was broken in the hands of a pirate leader, he would have no tears if he wanted to cry.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister immediately informed Zheng Zhilong to enter Beijing." Seeing that Zhu Youzhen did not blame, Cao Wenzhao relaxed slightly.

"Find me a complete copy of Zheng Zhilong's materials, the more detailed the better," Zhu Youzhen lowered his voice, "Only you and I know about this matter." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister understands." Cao Wenzhao's eyes lit up, and he knew that Zhu Youzhen was going to inspect Zheng Zhilong.

Zhu Youzhen looked up at Li Chunye: "Li Aiqing, I also have a few questions for you, how can the National Defense Institute reward soldiers for throwing their heads and spilling blood on the battlefield?" Is it just money and land to solve the problem? "Zhu Youzhen knew that the reform of the army was not complete, he had just ascended the throne at that time, the throne was unstable, and the threat of Jiannu was imminent, so he did not dare to act too much, and now with the aftermath of the victory of the two wars, it was time to completely reform the army.

"Your Majesty, is there any other way? The old minister really didn't understand. Li Chunye really couldn't guess Zhu Youzhen, and he didn't know what tricks he was going to play, so he had to smirk at Zhu Youzhen.

"For example, if an officer is promoted, and the company commander wants to be promoted to battalion commander, then the battalion commander must be promoted to regiment commander, and the regiment commander must be promoted to brigade commander, and so on, that is, there must be a vacancy to be promoted, but when there will be a vacancy, no one knows, if there is no vacancy, how to solve the problem of the promotion of officers?"

"陛xià......"

"Can the alternate system be adopted, for example, the brigade commander should be promoted to division commander according to military merits, but the division commander is not vacant for a while, and he cannot be directly appointed, so let him continue to serve as the brigade commander first, and at the same time appoint him as the alternate division commander, and then appoint him when the position of the division commander is vacant, but it doesn't seem to work, now that the new army is fighting, the phenomenon of officers dying is rare, who knows that it will have to wait until the year of the monkey?"

“……”

"Furthermore, how can a soldier be rewarded if he has made a particularly meritorious service? A direct promotion from a company commander to a battalion commander is not enough to reward his merits, and a direct promotion from a company commander to a corps commander is probably not appropriate. ”

"The direct promotion of the company commander to the rank of army commander is probably also irresponsible to the officer." Li Chunye finally caught up with Zhu Youzhen's rhythm.

Zhu Youzhen nodded slightly, "Third, soldiers fight wars and risk their lives, not just for money, right?" Is it possible to give a soldier a special reward, which has nothing to do with money, but is only an honor. In Zhu Youzhen's heart, he hoped that the military ranks, honors, and titles would stimulate the enthusiasm of soldiers to fight for the country and establish a professional army.

"Special honor?" Li Chunye found that he didn't seem to be able to keep up with Zhu Youzhen's train of thought again.

"Also, soldiers are bleeding and sweating on the front line, once they are disabled or sacrificed, how can their families live? They fought for the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty couldn't care about the life or death of their families, otherwise, the cold-hearted soldiers would still work for the country on the battlefield in the future? ”

If the last military reform was only a reform of training methods and the army's combat system, which could improve the army's combat effectiveness in a short period of time, then the reform that Zhu Youzhen is brewing this time is to prepare for the establishment of a professional army, which is a reform to nationalize and modernize the army.
