Chapter 658: How to Rule and Govern Mobei?

Pastures are very important, because in the feudal era, war horses were the most important part of building a cavalry army, and the Central Plains Dynasty was mostly at a disadvantage in the war against the nomads outside the Guan, because once the Central Plains Dynasty did not have the sixteen states of Yanyun, it would be difficult for the cavalry to compete with the nomads.

Why can the Ming Dynasty in history be tough all the time?

Why is the Great Song Dynasty in history called the Great Coward?

The reasons are, of course, manifold.

But the reason for this is that the Song Dynasty did not have the sixteen states of Yanyun, so it had a lot of wealth, but it could not create a strong cavalry army, and there was another one, Chongwen of the Song Dynasty.

And Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang sent Xu Da and Chang Yuchun, and it only took one year to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun.

And in some places in the sixteen states of Yanyun, war horses can be raised.

Now Daming not only has the sixteen states of Yanyun, but also the entire Mobei grassland.

War horses can be raised and picked at will.

In the future, the Ming cavalry army was very arrogant.

Zhu Jianji said slowly: "The matter of the ranch is still early, and it is still necessary to implement the major envoys as soon as possible, and at the same time, we must also solve a problem, that is, autumn will be in a few months, once the snow is vast in the north of the desert, our logistics supplies will not be able to be sent, how to ensure our results this time is the top priority."

The Jiuqing were surprised.

Your Majesty has begun to assign tasks and work, don't you celebrate?

The reaction was a bit flat.

Zhu Jianji's reaction was indeed too flat, because in Zhu Jianji's eyes, Mobei is China's territory since ancient times, and this year's war is just a recovery of his homeland.

To be happy is to be happy, but not to be ecstatic.

In fact, the laying of the Indochina Peninsula brought Zhu Jianji a greater surprise.

Because that's a frontier!

However, as soon as Zhu Jianji's voice fell, he heard the little eunuch outside the hall come to the door of Dongnuan Pavilion and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the six departments, the temple supervisors, the secretaries, the government offices, and the officials of the two courts...... Almost all the officials from Beijing have come to meet Your Majesty to congratulate me on my Daming."

Zhu Jianji smiled.

The Beijing officials are still very well informed.

It seems that today is not able to deal with political affairs, Mobei is just a war to recover his homeland in his eyes, but in the Ming Dynasty and the opposition, this is comparable to the immortal work of Tang Zong and Han Wu.

It is even possible to surpass Tang Zong Hanwu.

Tang Zong and Han Wu only beat the nomads outside the pass as a shrinking turtle, but the Ming Dynasty was down-to-earth to control the outside of the pass, the difficulty of these two operations, as well as the meaning and impact they brought are very different.

With such a feat, it is inevitable that the government and the opposition will boil.

Well, don't spoil everyone's interest.

Let's celebrate.

Anyway, the emperor on the Mobei side is still touring the north, and the follow-up governance policy is implemented one day earlier and one day later, and the impact is not great, and the Ming Dynasty can have today's glory, it is by no means his own work.

With a wave of his hand, "Swing and drive, Fengtian Temple."

The East Warm Pavilion is too small.

It's not enough to let a full house of civil and military gatherings, such a cheerful time, naturally you have to find a big venue for everyone to enjoy the joy of success together, and it's summer again, then only Fengtian Hall is suitable.

He said to Dai Yi: "Quickly send people to the Fengtian Temple to arrange, fans, ice cubes, snacks, juice, tables and chairs, and announce the bells and drums, and send people to play the piano and music. I will talk to all my ministers in the Fengtian Palace today about the joy of Mobei, and in addition, I will prepare a dinner party, and then inform the Jinyi Guard, Teng Xiang and Wu Xiang Siwei, and it will be closed when the palace is forbidden."

He said to Zhang Rang: "You go and invite all the ministers to the Fengtian Palace, wait for me for a while, I will come over after discussing some things with the Jiuqing, and in addition, I will go to Shoukang Palace, Kunning Palace and East Palace, and inform the emperor's grandmother, queen mother and my queen of this great joy, and spread my will, presided over by the Empress Dowager Hang, today's harem feast."

After arranging all this, Zhu Jianji said to the Jiuqing, "Let's go over later."

In fact, I just wanted to wait for the temperature of Fengtian Hall to cool down before going over.

It's too hot.

The Jiuqing people are also happy like this, and it is really cool in the East Warm Pavilion now!

As Jiuqing's high status, when His Majesty made a small-scale light artifact, only Jiuqing had it, and now he has made an electric fan, and Jiuqing has obtained His Majesty's gifts for free.

Stockpiling ice cubes is not difficult for large households.

So the days of the Jiuqing are actually okay.

Zhu Jianji said to Bai Gui: "According to the previous plan, Mobei will establish at least three Chengxuan political envoys, which have been discussed before, and the specific location isβ€”"

Dai Yi and Zhang Rang both went out to run errands.

Zhu Jianji got up, picked up the map of Mobei from the bookshelf, spread it out, and asked the Jiuqing to step forward and click on a few places where there are lakes in the Mobei area, "This is the place where the envoy of the Cheng Xuan is located that we discussed before, so it's decided."

The three positions selected earlier.

One is the Balkhun area of the Horqin steppe, the other is the approximate location of Ulaanbaatar, and the other is the Helin area of Transkhalkha, but Mobei is too big.

Zhu Jianji continued: "You secretaries think about it again, whether you need to add one or two more political envoys."

It is necessary to strengthen the control of Mobei.

There must be a little more local administrative units.

The Nine Secretaries are in charge.

They also felt that Mobei was too big, although the population was small, but in order to strengthen the control of Mobei, a few more envoys would not be a big burden on the imperial court, but would allow the Ming Dynasty to implement the policy more broadly among the herdsmen.

Zhu Jianji sat down again and said: "It is a matter of policy to announce the political envoy, but at present, Mobei has just experienced a big war, although Mobei does not have a large-scale city, the people are very little affected by the war, and the rout of Mobei will hardly harm the herdsmen, but we still have to beware of the rout of Mobei fanning the herdsmen to rebel, especially this winter is extremely important, whether Mobei can be completely controlled in the hands of the Ming Dynasty, it depends on this winter, whether we can completely press the major tribes of Mobei. Therefore, after the emperor's northern tour, on the Mobei grassland, the imperial court must at least stay 100,000 troops on the grassland for the winter, which is a very difficult thing, and the household department must fully support the grain and grass, and transport the grain and grass needed for the whole winter and spring in advance, and at the same time prepare more for the herdsmen, so as not to starve to death and freeze to death too much. On the part of the Ministry of Officials, it is necessary to quickly prepare the roster of officials needed by the major undertaking and political envoy departments, and transfer as many experienced officials as possible. At the same time, in order to ensure that the Ming Dynasty stays on the grassland for a long period of time in winter and spring, it will form an absolute deterrent to the defeated soldiers and herdsmen in Mobei, the National Military Research Institute of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War, together with the Donggong Military Research Institute, will go all out to produce ammunition and firearms accessories to ensure the combat effectiveness of the Jinge Group Army on the grassland!"
