The good news from the grassland was already winter when it was sent to the south.

The Yangtze River is frozen!

It was not completely frozen, there was an ice floe in the east and an ice floe in the west. In some places, it seems that the ice is completely frozen, and when a person stands up and walks a few steps, the ice will be torn apart.

Governments in various localities along the river are organizing official and civilian boats to clean up the ice floes in the middle of the river and forcibly knock out a passage for boats.

The Xiaoice River period did not disappear with Daming, and the real cold winter has just begun. At least during the Chongzhen period, the Yangtze River did not freeze. In the next 15 years, there will be four years of freezing on the Yangtze River.

In addition, Hanshui has also been frozen this year, and you can run horses on the ice!

The Khalkha cavalry who fled back to Mobei encountered a snowstorm on the way and froze to death more than 10,000 horses.

In the face of the cold winter, Zhao Han also put on a fur coat and began to review the snow disaster recitals sent from all over the country. The temperature dropped too quickly, and overnight, the cold snap hit, and the people had no time to react, and there were not a few people who froze to death or frostbite.

Even a prince and two princesses who lived in the Forbidden City caught a cold.

"Your Majesty, Monan is a great victory!"

The cabinet, the military department, the governor's office, and the imperial horse supervisor all came to tell the good news.

Zhao Han carefully read the victory document, and finally showed a smile on his face: "Good fight, the cabinet, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Rites will discuss together how to reward meritorious soldiers." Fei Ruhe and Zhang Mingshan (Zhang Tieniu), the title should not be promoted again for the time being, and they will be crowned as pillars. Fei Ruhe, plus Taifu (Zheng Yipin), and Prince Taibao (from a product). Zhang Mingshan, Jiataibao (Zhengyipin), and Prince Taibao. In addition, both of them were crowned with a hero, and their wives were rewarded with a good life. As for the giving of gold, and the giving of garments, and the giving of land, you will consult with each other. ”

With such a big military exploit, he didn't give Fei Ruhe and Zhang Tieniu a promotion. It seems to be mean and unkind, but in fact, it really doesn't count, because the weight of "Shangzhu Country" is too heavy.

In the three hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, there were only a few "Shangzhu countries".

Li Shanchang, Xu Da, and Chang Yuchun were Shangzhu Kingdom, but they were all taken back after their deaths and renamed the second-level "Left Pillar State".

Xia Yan became the Shangzhu Kingdom, and he was extremely glorious for a while, but he was also deprived of the title.

Yan Song was named Shangzhu State, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly resigned, saying that Xia Yan was unlucky because of this title. How can a person who is a minister be called "superior"?

Xu Jie, Zhang Juzheng was sealed as a pillar country, and they also chose to resign, not daring to accept it at all. However, after Zhang Juzheng's death, he was posthumously named Shangzhu State, and then he was deprived of it, and he was restored by changing emperors.

Therefore, excluding those who were withdrawn from the title, in the entire Ming Dynasty, there was only Zhang Juzheng who was the "Shangzhu State".

Although this thing is a false title, it is much rarer than a knighthood!

By the way, Zhang Yunxiu, the fifth son of Zhang Juzheng, was forced to be an official by Zhang Xianzhong, just like in history. Zhang Yunxiu did not obey and chose to commit suicide, and he was almost 80 years old at the time.

Zhang Juzheng's great-grandson Zhang Tongchang did not bravely fight against the Qing Dynasty. This gentleman was loyal to the Ming Dynasty and refused to be an official in the Datong court, and now he is working as a teacher in the countryside of Jiangling. A serious elementary school teacher, there is a staff, and he gets a salary, but he insists that teachers are not officials. What he took was not the new dynasty, but the shackles that he deserved as a teacher.

Among all the children and grandchildren of Zhang Juzheng, two are currently officials, one has become a prefect, and the other is just a county minister.

Song Yingxing said: "Fei Dudu requested that the Mongolian leaders who made meritorious contributions in this battle be given surnames and names, and the ministers felt that it was feasible. ”

Fei Ruhe asked for a name reward for the Mongol chieftain, but the reason was very simple. He felt that Mongolian surnames were too awkward, and there were too many duplicate names, for example, there were two Manzhu Xili, and if he didn't pay attention to it, he would be confused.

Song Yingxing has other ideas, in the prosperous Han and Tang dynasties, he often gave surnames to foreign leaders, why can't I be in the same Heavenly Dynasty? Moreover, the Han surname is given to facilitate the assimilation of different races. Mongolia does not repair history books, as long as they change their Han surnames, they will slowly fade the golden family after a hundred years.

Zhao Han also felt that it was feasible, and said to the king of the Ministry of Rites: "Choose from the hundreds of family names...... Forget it, all of them are surnamed Zhao. Ordinary surnames, those Mongol chiefs probably didn't like it, so they let them have the same surname as the royal family. The Ministry of Rites discussed taking some names, reported them in a few days, and sent envoys to the grassland to reward them after the beginning of spring. ”

After the Han Dynasty, a bunch of Southern Xiongnu leaders surnamed Liu, and even a hardcore "elite man" like Liu Yuan appeared. Although Liu Yuan was a Xiongnu, he could definitely be called a benevolent monarch in the Northern and Southern Dynasties of the Jin Dynasty, and even more benevolent than most Han emperors.

Now Zhao Han has decided to give the surname, as long as the authority of the Datong court is still there, in the future, those leaders of the Monan and Mongolian tribes will definitely have the surname Zhao for generations.

Maybe one day, a few "Jingtong" Mongols will emerge.

Zhao Han continued: "On the Hetao side, Li Zicheng refused Cao Bianjiao to incorporate the army. I was worried about this matter, and after the beginning of spring, let Fei Ruhe personally go to appease Li Zicheng. The generals that Fei Ruhe brought to Hetao must not have the former Ming generals to avoid provoking Li Zicheng and his subordinates. ”

Lu Xiangsheng, the secretary of the Ministry of War, arched his hand and said: "When I received the news of the Great War on the Grassland a few days ago, the Ministry of War, together with the Cabinet and other ministries, reformulated a plan to control the grassland. ”

"Speak." Zhao Han said.

Lu Xiangsheng said: "In the northern region, there are three capital protectorates under the jurisdiction. Ancient names were restored in various places, such as the Tumo River, which was changed to the Eile River. The Xilamulun River was changed to Raole Water. Heilongjiang, changed to Heishui ......"

Zhao Han interrupted and said, "The name of Heilongjiang is good, there is no need to change it back." ”

Lu Xiangsheng didn't bother to pick out the details, and continued:

"The three capital protectors all follow the old name of the Tang Dynasty. One is the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate, the second is the Raole Metropolitan Protectorate, and the third is the Anton Metropolitan Protectorate (Heilongjiang Metropolitan Division). ”

"The Anbei Protectorate, the seat of governance is located in the Naturalization City (Hohhot). Naturalized City, renamed Cloud City. It has jurisdiction over the Hetao Han people and the Chahar, Tumut and other Mongolian tribes. The Han people within the jurisdiction are governed by Han officials designated by the imperial court. The Mongolian tribes set up 12 capitals, and the 12 capitals were all served by Mongolian leaders. The Mongol capital could be hereditary, but it had to be canonized by the imperial court in advance. However, if there is a mistake, the imperial court has the right to re-elect the capital. ”

"Rao Le Du Hufu, the seat of governance is located at the confluence of the three rivers. When the city is built, the name of the city is undecided, and it can be Raozhou. It has jurisdiction over Horqin and Bahrain, Ongniut, Ujumuqin and other departments. The Han people within the jurisdiction are governed by Han officials. The Mongolian tribes also set up 12 capitals, which are the same as the Anbei Protectorate. ”

"The Andong Metropolitan Protectorate was renamed from the Heilongjiang Metropolitan Division. The original capital of the office (Harbin), moved east to the former Ming Dynasty's Orimi Station (Tongjiang), can be built at the confluence of Heilongjiang and Songhua River, called Heishui City. The Han people in the jurisdiction are governed by Han officials. The Jurchen tribes also set up the capital government. ”

Zhao Han took the map and looked at it carefully, and basically agreed with the new plan formulated by the ministers.

Naturalization City was renamed Yunzhong City, although it was different from the location of Yunzhong County in the Han and Tang Dynasties. But the difference is not far, it is nothing more than the difference between Tuoketuo County and Hohhot, and the distance between the two places is less than 200 miles.

The new Cloudsdale City, backed by Yin Mountain, controls the fertile Tumo River, the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the military rations are completely self-sufficient. In case of danger, the Shanxi reinforcements can take the Yellow River to support, and the Hebei reinforcements can go to Zhangjiakou to directly take the Chahar tribes.

Zhao Han said: "The governance of Rao Le Du Protectorate, after the city is built, it will be called Rao Le City." After all, there is a Raozhou in Jiangxi, so try to avoid duplicate names. ”

Raozhou in the Horqin Grassland was established in the Liao Dynasty, on the south bank of Raoleshui.

The name Rao Leshui has existed since ancient times, and it was not set by the Liao State. In the Tang Dynasty, it was called Rao Le Du Governor's Mansion, which belonged to the Xi people's settlement at that time.

Raole water, a river of abundance and peace, the soil is fertile as the name suggests.

O black earth!

The Raole City to be built is two hundred miles west of Tongliao City, and is located at the confluence of the Xilamulun River, the Laoha River and the Xiliao River.

Along the river to the west, it is the station of the Bahrain Department, and if you continue to the west, you can cross the remaining veins of the southern part of the Great Khing'an Mountains, and you can go to attack the Chahar Department, and you can also attack Mobei. Transportation arteries.

Follow the river to the east, and you can control the Okhorqin tribes. After the West Liao River joins the Liao River, it goes south to Tieling, and Liaoning materials can be directly transported to Rao Le City by boat. Transportation arteries.

Follow the river to the south, you can reach the south of Ningcheng County. After a few more mountains, it is a tributary of the Luan River, and Hebei materials may also be quickly transported to Raolecheng. Transportation arteries.

Not to mention the black land, just the traffic radiating from Rao Le City to three sides is enough to become the seat of the Rao Le Du Protectorate. Strictly speaking, it radiates in all directions, and a section of the river can be walked to the north.

The large area near Raole City was originally the territory of the Horqin Department.

Now it is certain that the Han people will be migrated to the past, and it just so happens that this time the Horqin tribes have suffered heavy casualties, and all the pastures need to be redefined.

Zhao Han said: "The Mongolian tribes are unified in twenty-four capitals, and the Ministry of Rites selects two right attendants to go to the grassland to preside over the alliance and canonize it. All Han Chinese slaves taken captive by the various ministries must be released and moved to the administrative offices of the capital to cultivate. Whoever dares to hide Han slaves privately, once discovered, will be beheaded, and their sons will not be allowed to inherit the position! ”

What do you say about setting up the three major capital protectorates, in fact, it is the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

What is said about setting up the 24 capitals of Mongolia is actually the alliance flag system of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

It sounds better after changing the skin, and the ancient place names are restored in large quantities. Cloud City is definitely better than Naturalization City, and Rao Leshui is definitely better than Xilamulun River.

As soon as the name was changed, he immediately rose tall, and there was a kind of style that chased the Han and Tang Dynasties.

Of course, the details are different, and it's not just a name change.

Lu Xiangsheng said: "Your Majesty, the ministers have repeatedly discussed, and the Governor's Office has also strongly suggested that the power of the Metropolitan Protector to command the army should be restored. This time, Li Zheng, the capital of Heilongjiang, also temporarily restored the right to command the troops. It is estimated that there will be a lot of wars in the future, and it is impossible to ask the imperial court for authorization every time. If Your Majesty is worried about the story of the Tang Dynasty's Jiedu envoys, you can hand over all the civil affairs of the capital to Changshi to be responsible. Changshi was filled by civil officials, who controlled financial and civil power. The history of the governor of the capital protection is set as the second grade, and the rank is higher than that of the right political envoys of the provinces. ”

Zhao Han pondered repeatedly, nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Song Yingxing suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the political envoys of the provinces are on the left and right, and their functions overlap. The minister consulted with the cabinet minister, and asked each province to appoint two right ministers to be in charge of the affairs of various departments in the province. ”

In other words, a political envoy of Zuobu is equivalent to the governor of the province (that). The two right-hand political envoys are equivalent to the vice-provincial governor in charge.

Zhao Han said: "This matter can be discussed after soliciting the opinions of the political envoys of various provinces. ”

Zhao Han also said: "Andong is the protectorate, and the administrative office can be moved to the confluence of Heilongjiang and Songhua River (Tongjiang). But don't worry now, it's too far away and you have to stay at the existing station (Harbin) for the time being. Wang Fuchen with 1,500 soldiers has been stationed there, and in recent years, many criminals have been exiled. Although they are exiles, they are not allowed to be ill-treated, and they are given as much clothing and food as possible. Let the exiles fill the population, reclaim the land, and marry local indigenous women. At least five years later, you will be able to move to the Andong Prefecture Residence. As for the construction of Blackwater City, you have to take your time, the population there is sparse and can't withstand the toss of building a city. ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!" The ministers shouted.

Zhao Han smiled: "Disperse." ”

The important ministers of the cabinet left happily, although Zhao Han cleaned up Tian Zheng and officialdom, and put everyone in danger in Beijing. But it is one thing to fight corruption, and quite another to expand territory.

The Metropolitan Protectorate, and set up three in one go.

These cabinet ministers were quite excited, dreaming that they would assist the Holy Monarch and restore the distant glory of the Han and Tang dynasties. In the future, it is best to restore the Anxi Protectorate and take back the Western Regions, and these important ministers will definitely be able to go down in history.

Who said that only military generals want to open up Xinjiang?

Wenchen also wants to!

(Check the name of the place, check the information, this chapter is so tired, there is only one change today.) ）
