Chapter 336: Xinghua Village Agreement

Tabu Nang is similar to the name Taiji, which is derived from the Mongolian word for a person who married a descendant of Genghis Khan.

Gurusiqi is a cloth bag, which is the title of a Mongolian prince. Tabu sac is divided into four grades, from the cloth sac to the fourth class Tabu sac, the rank of the same product to the fourth grade. Tabu Sang is the hereditary of the Yuan Dynasty attached to the horse, that is, the hereditary Tabu Bag, the Mongolians are all proud of this title, the Qing court changed the meaning of the horse of the Tabu Bag to the title name, and the chieftain and the sons of the Tabu Bag are the hereditary of the Tabu Bag. Thus, the Qing court placed itself in the dominant position of the Yuan court, and modeled it on the Yuan court for their wives, called them Edon. Since then, the original meaning of the horse in the Mongolian language has been replaced by the Manchu word for the forehead.

Although he has made great contributions to the entry of the Jianzhou people into the customs and has a noble status, Gulu Siqi does not like the title of the forehead on his head, nor does he like the title of Zasak, because these titles are actually a kind of shame of being ruled, the shame of the people of immortality being ruled by the people of Jianzhou.

The transformation of the Tabu Nang, which means the horse, into the title of the knighthood, marks the beginning of Genghis Khan's Zilama Tabu Nang Gang from the Yuan court to the Qing court. In addition to being divided into four grades according to the size of their merits, some of them were also named the lords of the Qing court. Such as: prince, county king, Baylor, Beizi, Zhenguo Gong, Fuguo Gong, etc. and from among the hereditary descendants of Tabu Sagard, hereditary Zasak and non-hereditary co-burial. From the point of view of his position, the assistant assists Zasak in handling flag affairs, but the treatment is the same as that of Zasak, that is, he enjoys the treatment of a first-class official. The Qing court changed Tabu Bang to the title name, although it was born from the Yuan, the two are essentially different, the former is a hereditary horse, and the latter is a hereditary title.

Gurusiqi did not like the Jianzhou people, because the Jianzhou people were savage and cunning, they had been using the Mongols to fight, and when there was no conquest, the Mongol tribes had contradictions, but this contradiction was often not properly handled by the Jianzhou people. The consequence of failure to deal with it is undoubtedly the intensification of contradictions, which will lead to killing. Cannibalism among the Mongols. Gurusqi knew very well that the Jianzhou people were weakening the Mongols, and their cunning was manifested in these places, because the population of the Jianzhou was too small, and the strength of the Mongols was a serious threat to him.

The young man's words before leaving made Gu Lu Siqi's heart thump, if this young man's words are true, if it is really full of trade, if the Ming Emperor really gives himself a title. Then he will have a chance to get rid of the Jianzhou people, and he can also get rid of the control of Horqin. And this premise is that the Ming army must defeat the Jianzhou people outside the pass and make Horqin submit. Horqin was actually a vassal of the Jianzhou people. This negotiation seems simple, but in fact it is under the surveillance of the Korqin people, which is what Gurusiqi fears the most.

Gulu Siqi is the tribal leader of the entire Karaqin tribe, and his territory is now in the hands of the Ming army, Karaqin's territory is next to the Ming border wall, once the Ming army wins, Gu Rusiqi will directly face the threat of the Ming army, which is undoubtedly very dangerous. But at the same time, he also has an absolute advantage. The Karaqin is the best access route to the steppes further north, if trade. In fact, Gulusiqi knows best, relying on Daming is the most reliable. This is a lesson from the past, at least the Ming court will not treat itself like a slave, and it can also make the Karaqin tribe the richest tribe in Inner Mongolia.

The huge army of the Ming army could not see the edge at a glance, and the Guan Qi Zhang Jingsetl of Guruqi was terrified when he saw it; That's probably no less than 300,000 people. It seems that Bu Bao is right, the Ming army has become stronger, and it is extremely powerful.

Settle is fifty-one years old. Among the Mongols, he is considered a long-lived person, and at the same time, Settel also has a specialty, he is proficient in Chinese. Because, when he was a teenager, Setle was a mercenary officer of the Ming Dynasty, but because the military Liliang of the Ming army was too weak later, the people of Jianzhou became stronger and stronger, and Setle had to return to the grassland.

Zhou Huchen, who personally received Setle, was surprised, because this old Setle actually used a standard Ming military salute on himself.

"Tianqinian's subordinates used to be the Mongolian cavalry Qianhu of Miyunwei, and later returned to Karaqin, and his subordinates have always longed for the Ming Dynasty."

A standard Northland Chinese, the posture is very low, everything is understood, the arrival of this old Setle is a gesture, Gu Lusiqi's inner thoughts no longer need to be guessed, he wants to trade, it is equivalent to letting himself give him a price and sell.

"Someone! Make an exception today, bring me all the Xinghua Village brought by Lord Yan, and Ben Shuai wants to have a drink with Setle Qianhu! ”

Yan Bingtai, who heard this, had a dark face on his face, who revealed this Nima? My Xinghua Village, there are only a few bottles left, and it is difficult to say whether Zhou Huchen will be held accountable for secretly taking the spirits out of the customs afterwards.

Xinghua Village is definitely a good wine, known as the supreme wine, it is full of mellow, unique freshness and hotness, which makes people have a long aftertaste, but it is a pity that there are too few, because there are too many people in the big tent; Zhou Huchen, Yan Bingtai, Wang Deyong, Mo Xiancheng, Sun Dayong, Zheng Sen's uncle and nephew, Yu Dahu, Weng Zhiqi also have to add a massive old Setle.

The soldiers are all bold, the Mongols are also bold, and the old Setl seems to have returned to more than thirty years ago to work with the officials of the Ming army, gallop together, and indulge in booze together, In fact, that kind of life is really good

"Karaqin is still your Karaqin, and it will not change after the trade, in fact, what will change is life, I will let the caravan bring sufficient food, salt, tea, cloth, silk, as long as the grassland needs something, there will be cattle, sheep, fur, and all kinds of medicinal materials from the grassland will also be transported to the Guannei. I believe that in the near future Karaqin will become a famous trade route, and it will become a gathering place for goods, and the leaders will benefit and the people will benefit. In terms of trading, I will have people take a proportional share of the trade, and this wealth can be negotiated into a common distribution scheme."

Zhou Huchen was undoubtedly painting a big cake, and this big cake was full of boundless temptation, which made the excited hands of the old Setle who knew Daming tremble.

Zhou Huchen is too young, but this young Uncle Daming, the horse of the dynasty, and the commander of the army seems to have this ability, and the old Setle couldn't help it: "I don't know what other conditions the marshal has?" What if the Jianzhou and the Kolmi Mongols obstruct it? ”

"This is easy to do, I can reluctantly garrison troops in the land of trade, my Ming can establish a military alliance with the Karaqin Department, Chengde and Weichang are two good places, as a place of trade and a place of garrison, what do you think?" Zhou Huchen has never called Setel's Mongolian official position, because that official position is from Jianzhou.

"Respected commander, it depends on the leader's intentions, and the other three flags must also be negotiated." Old Setle didn't drink much, and although he was very excited, he couldn't do these big things, because Karaqin had four heads.

"This matter can be negotiated later, but in order to ensure the safety of our army, in order to completely defeat the people of Jianzhou, Chengde and the enclosure will be borrowed temporarily, and the herdsmen of Karaqin can still rest assured that they can shepherd sheep and trade with the merchants of the Ming Dynasty, and my army will not take the initiative to attack the herdsmen." Then I will compensate for the land with the goods, and if you don't believe me, Ben Shuai can leave a note for the Gulushi cloth bag. ”

Zhou Huchen knew that there were many things to do with complete trade, and there were too many trivial things, such as how merchants cleared customs, how to collect taxes, where they traded, etc., especially the garrison, and the Ming army's garrison in Karaqin must be resisted. Therefore, Zhou Huchen is not in a hurry, this is just a preliminary discussion, and the detailed cooperation still needs to be negotiated for a long time, and it also needs to continue to be tempted. As for the garrison, this time he will not withdraw, it is easy to come, and he will have to say it again.

Old Setle left, and he took with him a note that Zhou Huchen had set up by himself. In fact, Old Setle also understood that when it was time to comply, Zhou Huchen would abide by it, and when he didn't want to comply, Zhou Huchen would definitely not comply. This is not a matter of credit in business, it is a matter of a tribe and a country, and it is a political necessity. Therefore, it is not realistic for Zhou Huchen to evacuate the occupied land now.

"Young marshal, you are amazing, extraordinary! This reason for continuing to garrison is too good! ”

It's really not playing, Yan Bingtai, who has been paying close attention, admires Zhou Huchen's methods and eloquence, and also admires his boldness. This kind of complete trade with Mongolia is related to the country's plans, and the imperial court dares to make promises without speaking, Zhou Huchen is really still the same Zhou Huchen, and he never acts according to the rules. In fact, Yan Bingtai mentioned that the garrison in Karaqin was to cover Zhou Huchen, and there were many people, and Yan Bingtai did not want others to attack Zhou Huchen.

This is not about Zheng Sen's uncle and nephew, the two have been silent, and Sun Dayong, Yu Dahu, and Weng Zhiqi are Zhou Huchen's people, and several people know the proportions, and this matter cannot be evaluated indiscriminately, let alone said, so several people kept silent under the guise of haha.

The Karaqin affair has come to an end for the time being, but this proposal has undoubtedly had a great impact on Karaqin. Wealth is moving, the leaders of Karaqin began to move, and for the people in Karaqin, this matter does not seem to be a bad thing, they will also get benefits, the Ming is a symbol of civilization and wealth, the things of the Ming are lacking in the grassland, complete trade will undoubtedly bring a lot of opportunities to the people living in this land, as long as they stay away from the war, the people will not be excluded.

Soon after, this agreement was finally reached, because it was attractive enough, except for some resistance to the garrison required by the Ming army, the entire Karaqin territory was full of people, and everyone was looking forward to the Ming caravan. At the same time, this trade also filled the Kormi Mongols with infinite resentment. But it is a pity that Zhou Huchen left enough deterrent power in Karaqin to finally understand the role of the Ming army in Karaqin.

This agreement initialled by Zhou Huchen and Gurusiqi, the head of Karaqin, was later called; "Xinghua Village Agreement".

It was this not-so-standard agreement that later made the merchants and Karaqin people who went out of the Ming Dynasty to do business grateful to Zhou Huchen, and also made the Ming Dynasty Hall silent. Mongolia was too steady, as smooth as a bowl of water on the table, and there was never a big battle. Years of border troubles and wars have disappeared so easily and miraculously, and there is no difference between Mongolians, Han Chinese, and Manchus, who live together under the same blue sky. Although it cannot be said to be very harmonious, the basic peace of life makes all those who have an opinion of Huchen have to admire his foresight and open-mindedness...... (To be continued......)
