"Are you willing to honor me as the Great Khan of Mongolia?"

"The ministers would like to respect His Majesty as the Great Khan of All Mongolia, the Great Khan of Tengger ......"

In the Mulan enclosure, inside the huge golden-domed tent, more than a hundred Khan kings, Jinong, and Zasak of Monan and Mobei Mongolia all replied in unison.

Emperor Zhu sat on the throne, and beside him stood Oyuntana, who was dressed in a gorgeous mask, and his eyes coldly swept over the heads of the Mongolian alliance flags kneeling below. The name of the Great Khan of Mongolia has been obtained, and the so-called Nine White Tributes (eight white horses and a white ox) have also been collected, and a Mongolian woman has been obtained, but Oyuntana is considered a beauty.

Besides, this Great Khan doesn't seem to be of much use! Zhu Jishi knew that this position was just a false name, but since this false name fell into his own hands, he had to make it a real benefit.

"Since you and others have all been honored as the Great Khan of Mongolia, then I have come now to truly assume the responsibility of the Great Khan! Are you willing to obey my commands? ”

"The ministers are willing to obey the orders of the Great Khan."

The people below answered neatly, but how much sincerity is only known to God? However, Zhu Jishi still nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Okay, I will issue an edict in the name of Tengger Khan today, announcing the establishment of provincial capitals and counties in the land of Monan and Mobei Mongolia!" Do you have any objections? ”

Sure enough, the more than 100 Mongolians below were stunned and wanted to set up provincial capitals and counties in Mongolia...... Is this to change the land and return to the stream!?

"Any objections?"

Zhu Jishi asked again, and sure enough, there were Mongolians who raised different opinions.

"Great Khan, the provincial system is the system of the Han family. We Mongolians haven't done this since ancient times......"

"Nonsense!" Zhu Jishi lowered his voice. "The provincial system is an old practice of the Mongolian Yuan. It was implemented at the time of Kublai Khan, how is it the Han family system? Could it be that Kublai Khan is not the grandson of Genghis Khan? However, the alliance flag system you are engaged in now is not the old Mongolian system, but was imposed on Mongolia by the Manchu puppet emperor, since I have become the Great Khan, I cannot allow this system to continue to be implemented, from today onwards, the alliance flag system will be abolished, and the provincial system will be changed to a provincial system! ”

Emperor Zhu paused. He said softly: "Of course, the interests of the leaders of the Mongolian alliance flags are to be taken care of. In the future, there will be three provinces of Rehe, Chahar and Suiyuan in Monan, and the Mongolian leagues will be renamed as the prefect, and the banners will be changed to counties. Mobei Mongolia is divided into six provinces, one province each of the four Khans of Khalkha Mongolia, and one province each of Tangnu Ulianghai and Kobdo. The four khans were appointed governors.

The Khans of the Khans were crowned dukes in Beijing. Nanjing each gave a mansion. The leaders of the league conferred the title of duke of the county and gave a mansion in Beijing. The banners were made marquises. The same house in Beijing. All Mongolian princes are one and the same as Han princes. The rest of the chiefs of the Mongol tribes were also given titles.

In addition, the pastures of all Mongolian tribes can be owned by the leaders of each tribe and listed as private property, as long as they are not diverted for other purposes, they will be taxed according to the size of the pasture, and the tax will be light. However, you can only divide three-quarters of the pasture, and the remaining quarter belongs to me, the Great Khan of Tengri, so that my subjects can use it for free......"

Zhu Jishi spoke Chinese, and not all the Mongolians present could understand it, and he had his own translation. However, before the general matter was finished, Tushetu Khan Che Lingerji had already reacted, looked at Zhu Jishi fixedly, and said, "Big ...... Great Khan, what do you say!? Three-quarters of the pastures in the north and south of the desert should be ...... are all listed as our private property? ”

Zhu Jishi smiled and asked, "Aren't those grasslands your private property now?" ”

All the Mongols already understood what Emperor Zhu meant, and the emperor wanted to exchange the ownership of the pastures in the south and north of the desert in exchange for everyone's support for the provincial system! In the past, although the control and use of those pastures were in the hands of the heads of the tribes, there was no clear ownership or public pasture. Now Emperor Zhu has divided these "public property" privately with a word! Of course, only the fertile pastures were divided, and the deserts, forests, and mountains in the south and north of the desert still belonged to the public property of the state. However, the Mongolian pastures are not a good location, and if the imperial court really wants to requisition, it will not cost a few silver dollars. Moreover, a quarter of the Mongolian pastures still belonged to Tengri Khan, which was actually the property of the imperial court.

"Great Khan, Cheringerzi is willing to change the Tushetu Khan Department into a province." Oyuntana's father was the first to express his support.

"Great Khan, I, the Chechen Khan, am willing to change to a province."

"I, the Saiyin Noyan Division, am willing to change the province to a province.

"I, the Zasaktu Khan, also agreed to change the provincial ......"

Immediately afterwards, the leaders of the other khans of Mobei Mongolia all agreed. Their pastures are all occupied by Yixin's people, whether they change the province or not, if they offend Emperor Zhu, there will be nothing! Besides, it is not a loss to change the province, the governor is still done by them, and they can occupy a large area of grassland. Even if he does not become a governor in the future, with the ownership of these pastures, he can still collect cattle and sheep from the herdsmen, just like the Han landlords collect rents.

Seeing that the leaders of the four tribes of Mobei Mongolia all supported Zhu Dahan's proposal, the leaders of Monan Mongolia had no choice but to agree. Mobei Mongolia is still beyond the reach of the whip, and their Monan Mongolia is under Zhu Jishi's troops! If you provoke Zhu Da Khan, the guards cavalry will come to the door to kill people and set fire!

……

"Your Majesty, do you really want to set up provinces in Monan and Mobei? Isn't it...... Eager? ”

As soon as the leaders of the Mongols dispersed, Zuo Zongtang and Luo Zenan came to pay their respects, and they had just heard about the establishment of a province in Mongolia. Before, Zhu Jishi hadn't discussed it with them!

"Isn't that good? Cut the Gordian knot! Zhu Jishi smiled and looked at Zuo Zongtang, "Zuo Xiang, you shouldn't blame me for making claims, right?" ”

"Your Majesty is the Great Khan of Mongolia, and the minister is not a Mongolian judge, so there is no need to talk to the minister about this matter." Zuo Zongtang's tone was cold, and he knew that his heart was not very happy.

Zhu Jishi said: "Zuo Xiang, in fact, this matter was also a sudden thought of me, originally I planned to reform after I pacified Yixin." But now look at the fact that those Mongols are very weak, and they will simply do it in one step. ”

Luo Zenan also said: "The minister agrees with the emperor's proposition, and now we have gathered more than 200,000 troops in the northeast, and we have deployed no less than 200,000 troops in southern Mongolia!" How dare those Mongols disobey? If Yixin is pacified, after the army disperses, things will not be easy to do. His brows furrowed again, "It's just that it's a little inappropriate for the emperor to divide three-quarters of the Mongolian pasture, those Mongols have already obtained the king's mansion, and then divide the grassland......"

Zhu Jishi waved his hand: "It's divided, if you don't give them a little sweetness, they won't really follow us." My approach to the Mongols was different from that of the Manchus, and the Manchurians were so small that it was impossible to turn all the Mongols into banner people. However, we have a large number of Han Chinese, which can completely promote the sinicization of Mongolia. Changing nomadism to animal husbandry, and cultivating where suitable. But before developing Monti, you must first clarify the property rights! I am dividing the pasture now just to clarify the property rights...... This property right belonged to the Mongolian nobles, and in the future, they resold the pasture and rented it to the Han Chinese, which was a transaction and a sale. These Mongolian nobles were also the beneficiaries of the Han Chinese in the development of Mongolia, so that they would not encourage ordinary Mongolians to make things difficult for the Han Chinese.

But if I divide all the grasslands of the Mongols as state-owned land, if we want to develop the Mongol land in the future, it will be the Han people who will take the land of the Mongols! These Mongol nobles could not benefit from this, could they be willing? Sooner or later, they will encourage the Mongolian people to make trouble! Although I am not afraid of them making trouble, I can't help but talk about the truth, those pastures should be given to them if they are blinded, and in the future, they will not be able to operate them if they are worthless, not us. Zuo Xiang, military advisor, do you understand? ”

Zuo Zongtang and Luo Zenan glanced at each other, and they both saw puzzled expressions. But he nodded in understanding. Zhu Jishi also said: "Zuo Xiang, the establishment of the province needs to be handled as soon as possible, first set up the three provinces of Rehe, Chahar, and Suiyuan, and the Northeast Mongolian Land will be merged into the Northeast Province. I intend to set up Jilin Province, Heilongjiang Province and Binhai Province in Northeast China. The capital of Jilin Province is located in Changchun, the capital of Heilongjiang Province is Huining, and the capital of Binhai Province is Vladivostok. (To be continued......)
