If it is too far away from the border, inside the Ming Dynasty, then in case the Ming Dynasty has evil intentions and gathers heavy troops to exterminate the Chahar Department, then they really have nowhere to run. And if they were closer to the border, if something happened, they could still escape to the savannah.

Liu Ruozai smiled: "We have carefully considered what the Queen Mother said, and the location for your ministry has already been chosen." ”

He spread out the nine-sided map he carried, and when he saw this map, the Queen Mother's eyes immediately lit up. Being able to dominate the Chahar Ministry, she is not only not a stupid woman, but also a person who is quite good in all aspects, including in the military aspect.

Naturally, she was able to realize how much a detailed and accurate map could help in military operations. The map that Liu Ruozai took out included the vast area west of Xuanfu all the way to Gansu Town, these border towns and the areas outside the border towns.

There is no such accurate map in the Chahar department, and the Empress Dowager can't help but be a little greedy when she sees it, and she wants to ask for it.

Liu Ruozai naturally didn't know what she was thinking, he pointed to one of them and said, "Queen Mother, please look, this is where you are placed." ”

Following Liu Ruozai's finger, the Queen Mother couldn't help but exclaim: "Go to the water and the sea?" ”

"That's right, it's the sea!" Liu Ruozai twisted his beard and smiled.

The place that Liu Ruozai pointed out is standard as a large lake on the map, more than 100 miles north of Datong Town and hundreds of miles south of the pasture of the Tumut Department.

This place, which is not very far from Mongolia and the Ming Dynasty, can be said to be located between the two and closer to the Ming Dynasty.

Liu Ruozai explained: "The sea is more than 150 miles from east to west, more than 100 miles from north to south, the vast and boundless, and the output inside is also extremely rich, with countless fish and shrimp, which can be eaten. The surrounding grassland is also quite fertile and lush. This place has not been occupied, and it is most appropriate to use it for your department. ”

The Empress Dowager nodded with satisfaction, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she suddenly said, "I have been to this place." ”

With a reminiscing expression on his face, he said with a smile: "It is indeed a very beautiful place, and the water and grassland are also beautiful, but it is too close to Daming, and we don't dare to graze there." ”

"Haha, now that the Chahar Ministry has surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, naturally there is no need to be afraid of this." Liu Ruozai said with a smile.

He scratched his finger on the north side of the map and said, "In this area, there are still a lot of tribes that originally belonged to the Chahar Department, and it will be convenient to collect them when the time comes." ”

The Empress Dowager nodded.

A smile appeared at the corner of Dong Ce's mouth.

In fact, it was his idea to place the Chahar in the Sea of Launch. Xiashui Sea is the Daihai of later generations, Dong Ce in the previous life has been to this place, and this inland lake called Daihai has left a deep impression on him. Even in the later generations when the pollution was serious, the water quality of Daihai was still very good, otherwise it would not have developed into a tourist resort, and the surrounding grassland was fertile and the climate was suitable.

The Daihai in later generations is much smaller than the current sea, and the surrounding grassland will also shrink a lot, and the current area of the sea, and the surrounding grasslands are also larger, which may not be as good as the big grassland, but there is absolutely no problem with that large grassland to feed these people in the Chahar Department.

That's right, the Sea of Water is indeed a very suitable place, but Dong Ce is selfish in arranging the Chahar Department there.

Because the sea of water is not far north of Datong Town, where you want to go, the hole that was once controlled by the Hutou Cottage that was exterminated by Dong Ce on Daqing Mountain is the only way to go!

And after these people from the Chahar Department migrated to the sea of Xiashui, where did the food and clothing come from? Not doing business with the merchants of the Ming Dynasty? It is conceivable that once the news of the Chahar tribe being placed in the sea of Xiashui spreads, many businessmen will definitely leave. Now it's just that these people from the Chahar Department on the big grass beach go to the sea, and when the news spreads from the steppe, I am afraid that I don't know how many people will go to the sea to defect, and when the number of Mongolian tribes going to the sea is increasing, the demand is getting bigger and bigger, and there will definitely be more and more businessmen going there.

They all had to pass by the hole.

Dong Ce didn't do anything else, so he set up a card on the hole to collect business taxes, and then he could make a lot of money.

Of course, this move requires Liu Ruozai's support. What Dong Ce didn't expect was that after he told Liu Ruozai about this plan, Liu Ruozai actually agreed.

"I wonder what the Queen Mother thinks of this resettlement site?" Liu Ruozai asked.

"I think it's good." The Queen Mother did not hide it, and said directly.

"So this one, are we settled?" Liu Ruozai asked.

"Hmm." The Empress Dowager nodded and said, "Then I'll talk about the second one." ”

"Please!" Liu Ruozai said with a smile.

"This second one is also very important." The Empress Dowager said: "What does our Chahar Department count as much? Tributary? Subordinates? Or something else? ”

After the Empress Dowager said this, Liu Ruozai's expression immediately became serious.

Because what the Queen Mother asked is about the righteousness of both parties, in Liu Ruozai's view, this is the most important point.

"I don't know what the Queen Mother thinks?" Liu Ruozai did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically.

The Empress Dowager said tentatively: "Like the case of North Korea? ”

It can be seen from this sentence that the Empress Dowager is estimated to have read a lot and is proficient in Sinology. If you are an ordinary high-level of the Chahar Ministry, don't say that you take the initiative to say this, even if you mention it to him, I'm afraid that he will be in the clouds.

The relationship between the DPRK and the Ming Dynasty is of great significance in the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and the surrounding forces.

Korea is a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty is the suzerainty of Korea. The monarch of Joseon is not called emperor but king, and the newly appointed monarch of Joseon needs to accept the canonization of the Ming Dynasty, otherwise it is illegal. Joseon regularly paid tribute to the Ming Dynasty, and once the Ming Emperor had any edicts, he would also obey them.

At the same time, the Ming Dynasty provided protection to Korea, such as the War to Aid Korea, one of the three major expeditions of 10,000 miles, which helped Korea drive the Japanese away.

In fact, other than that, there is nothing. The Ming Dynasty did not send officials to Korea, only occasionally envoys. In addition to the name of righteousness, the DPRK has a very high degree of independence, and all political and military affairs are completely decided by others, and the Ming Dynasty cannot interfere.

So as soon as they heard the Empress Dowager say the words 'as an example of North Korea', Liu Ruozai and Dong Ce immediately sneered in their hearts, and said secretly: "Where is there such a cheap thing?" ”

As in the case of North Korea, it is not called submission. The imperial court will also have little control over the Chahar Ministry, and the Chahar Ministry, when it says it will run, it will run away, and the court can only stare dryly.

"It is impossible to make a decision in North Korea." Liu Ruozai simply refused.

The Empress Dowager didn't expect Da Ming to be so stupid, she actually said that just now, probably a little bit of asking for money everywhere. At this time, she was rejected by Liu Ruozai, and she was not angry, but just asked: "Then Lord Liu, what kind of charter do you say?" ”

For this question, Liu Ruozai already had a draft, and he said in a deep voice: "Such as the Banzhou case." ”

Then he added: "Banzhou before Yang Yinglong." ”

Such as the Banzhou case, in fact, it is such as the state case. Banzhou has always been governed by Tusi, until the Banzhou Expedition, one of the three major expeditions of 10,000 miles, exterminated Yang Yinglong, and then changed the land and returned to the stream. However, before the land was changed and returned to the stream, in fact, the imperial court's control over Banshu was quite strong. According to Liu Ruozai's words, according to the Banzhou regulations at that time, the Chahar Ministry not only maintained a certain degree of independence, but also had a certain degree of control over the imperial court.
