Kim Tae-gil asked, "Why did Baylor say that?" ”

Yang Jinu pointed to the large number of farmland and houses outside:

"Look at these Han people, they are really rich!"

"Cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks are everywhere, they are very fat, and there is obviously no shortage of food to raise them so fat."

"The girls are as white as snow, even the boys are white!"

"If this is not on the train, but only marching on land, we can completely let the people below go to grab some cattle and sheep to fight for tooth sacrifices, and grab a few children to go to the fire, and the court will not kill us all because of this, but will only force us to hand over a few people below to take the blame."

"It's a pity."

"Now, we are all on this iron lump, and if we jump, we will be crushed to death, and we don't know how to stop him."

Yang Jinu then spoke again.

After hearing this, Jin Taiji just laughed: "The appearance of this big iron lump is indeed to make us unable to make some more people's wealth on the march, but I think this is also the purpose of the imperial court to let us take this big iron car to the south." ”

"You're right."

"I'm worried now about whether the Burma and Mughal countries in the south have also built such railways."

"In that case, wouldn't we all have to nest on the railroad all the way, and then listen to the storyteller here talk about loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness every day, and talk about the new rite policy?"

Yang Jinu said worriedly.

Jin Taiji looked at the sunset in the distance and replied: "Probably not, Burma and the Mughal are thousands of miles away from here, where are there so many irons, and the railways should be built so far?" ”

Yang Jinu nodded: "Yes!" ”

The Liangjing Railway of the Ming Dynasty has indeed only been built to Yangzhou at present, so after the eight thousand Jurchen Yiding of the Yehe Department arrived in Yangzhou, they changed to take the official ship and went to Myanmar by sea.

After all, there are only 8,000 people in Yehebu, and it is more cost-effective to ship by sea.

Of course, the Ming bureaucrats were indeed worried that they would be harassed along the way, so they also strongly urged the emperor to let them go by sea after taking the train.

In this way, Yehebe did not have the opportunity to harass the people in Middle-earth along the way.

The armies of ethnic minorities have always been requisitioned by the central court of the Ming Dynasty, and when they go to fight in a place, they will disturb the people on the way to the march, and the military discipline is very poor.

Like Guangxi wolf soldiers and Guizhou Miao soldiers, there are such situations.

In fact, not only the armies of ethnic minorities, but also the local guest armies have this situation, because they are not their hometowns, and they will let go of robbery one by one.

The Ming Dynasty now uses railways and sea routes to transport troops, which avoids this situation to a large extent, thereby reducing the people's aversion to the conquest and reducing the cost of internal stability maintenance caused by external expansion.

This is one of the benefits of the steam industry.

Don't underestimate the destructive power of ancient armies on the march to the internal society.

According to the historical saying, bandits are like combs and soldiers are like grates, that is to say, an army with poor military discipline is more terrible than bandits in the eyes of the people.

It is basically difficult for foreign armies to achieve very strict military discipline.

Therefore, the transportation of troops by rail and sea is really of great benefit to the people.

But for the Eight Banners Jurchen Yiding of the Yehe Division, they were either taking a train or a boat along the way, which also made them very aggrieved.

At first, they were fresh, but as they couldn't loot and could only stay in claustrophobic spaces such as trains and boats, they gradually got bored and wanted to go home.

Especially when it came to the ship, if it weren't for the fact that many of them were seasick and dizzy, and the rocking of the ship was not conducive to their fighting, some of them would have been tempted to start a rebellion to take the sailors and crew hostage and let them pull them back.

This is also equivalent to saying that the Eight Banners Jurchen Yiding of the Yehe Department has been aggrieved for more than half a year after arriving in the Mughals, and he has not released his ambitions in this half a year.

Therefore, when they arrived in the Mughals, they all let go of their nature and plundered, so they undoubtedly caused a lot of damage to the feudal indigenous farms near the Mughals, what Brahmins, Kshatriyas, even the high castes are not spared, and they also specially rob the high castes, because the low castes have nothing to rob.

The Yehe tribe originally belonged to a part of the Haixi Jurchens, and did not belong to the tribes with the highest degree of sinicization among the Jurchen tribes, and they were still serfdoms, so it was impossible to expect them to be more civilized in their plundering methods of the local natives, but only to carry out the most crude and primitive plundering methods, that is, they captured their people as slaves, and robbed them of their property and land to exchange for silver dollars in the hands of the Ming army.

Of course.

The Ming official army led by Liu Ling, Marquis of Nanchang, did not plunder directly.

Because the civilization of the Ming official army is already higher, there is no need for the most brutal plundering methods, at least not to rob them yourself.

Like what.

After the Ming army successfully occupied Dhaka, they focused on trade, and at the same time coerced and lured some local Brahmins to take the initiative to join themselves as compradors and agents, dumping cotton, silk, and horse-drawn carriages for themselves.

But not all Mughal Brahmins are so conscious, because the Mughal Empire in this era is also a strong period, so many high-caste Mughals are still very proud, so they do not welcome the arrival of the Ming official army, trying to organize a larger army to drive away the Ming army.

But when the Mughal Empire was doing this, the Ming army sent many Jurchen, Mongol, Korean, and Japanese people.

It was also at this time that the Jurchen Yiddin of the Yehbe came to the Mughals, the Indian subcontinent of later generations.

Like other foreign armies hired by the Ming Dynasty, these Jurchen Yiding of the Yehe Department were actually ordered by the Ming Emperor to strictly abide by military discipline.

However, based on their own interests, the Ming army only conscientiously protected the Brahmin feudal landlords who attached themselves to the Ming Dynasty and became compradors of the Ming Dynasty, and turned a blind eye to the Jurchen and other Yiding who did not obey the order and strictly abide by military discipline.

Therefore, Ye Hebu and other foreign armies who were transferred here by the Ming Dynasty also wantonly slaughtered the Brahmin feudal landlords who were not protected by the Ming Dynasty.

As a result, many Brahmin landlords were slaughtered by Yehebe and other Yiding, and many of them were exterminated and the whole city was slaughtered.

And the Ming Dynasty is still transporting Yidi to the Indian subcontinent.

The Jurchen Ula and Hada tribes, and the Mongolian Uliangha and Khalkha tribes were all sent, and like the Yehe tribe, they were organized into the Green Battalion.

There are also Tokugawa Ieyasu and other Japanese who surrendered and joined the co-defense camp, and they were also sent to this continent in batches after exterminating the ronins in Honshu for the Ming Dynasty.

The Indian subcontinent is a vast territory, with nearly 165 square kilometers of arable land, including more than 600,000 square kilometers in the plains.

Therefore, if the Ming Dynasty wants to annex this continent, it is impossible to eat and digest it in one bite, so he can only transfer the surrounding ethnic groups that have been conquered by himself to sort it out for himself first.

It's just that India is too big, so even if it sends a lot of foreign troops that have been conquered by itself, it can't be completely sorted out for a while.

And because of this.

The green battalions such as Yehebe and the auxiliary battalions such as Tokugawa Ieyasu have been desperately slaughtering once they arrived on this continent, but due to the size of India, they have not yet slaughtered to the point of making India hurt.

Therefore, for the Daimyo of the Green Camp and the Auxiliary Battalion, they seem to have fallen into the treasure house one by one, and they have forgotten to be homesick for a while, only know how to rob, and even begin to have the idea of living here for a long time, just like those alien races in history who don't want to leave after entering the customs.

The Mughal Brahmin landlords, who were preparing to deal with the Ming army, had to give up dealing with the Ming army and instead deal with the brutal Jurchen Mongols and the Japanese army who assisted in the camp.

However, the armies of the Brahmin landlords were not the opponents of the Green Battalion and the Auxiliary Battalion, mainly because the Jurchen Mongols and the Japanese army had the assistance of the Ming Dynasty after all, and because of the closer exchanges with the Han civilization and the military ideology, the army of the Brahmin landlords was basically a crushing defeat when fighting against the Green Battalion and the Auxiliary Battalion.

The Ming Dynasty often played the role of a peacemaker at this time.

On the one hand.

At this time, the Ming Dynasty rebuked the Green Battalion and the Auxiliary Battalion troops, ordering them to stop the slaughter, and even threatened to cut off their supplies if they did not listen.

On the other hand.

The Ming also took the initiative to send envoys to contact the Mughal feudal lords, extending an olive branch to them, expressing their willingness to provide them with protection, but they had to provide some protection money and some preferential conditions that were willing to cooperate with the Ming Dynasty.

Jurchen Yiding and the Japanese army also need time to digest because they slaughter too much at one time, and sometimes there will be internal contradictions such as uneven distribution of spoils that need to be dealt with, and there will also be discord with other tribes in the slaughter, and it is also inseparable from the secret support of the Ming Dynasty, so it will also give the Ming some face, and appropriately stop the conquest of some Mughal feudal lords, or reduce the intensity of the slaughter.

The Brahmin feudal lords of the Mughal Empire were naturally more willing to accept the protection fee paid to the Ming Dynasty than they were slaughtered by the Jurchens and other Yiding, and even gave the Ming many preferential conditions, after all, they could still keep half of their feudal economy.

Therefore, for a time, more and more Brahmin feudal lords began to become vassals of the Ming Dynasty, attached themselves to the Ming Dynasty, and became compradors and agents of the Ming Dynasty.

It's just that because India is too big and there are many feudal lords, there are still many feudal lords who did not choose to join the Ming Dynasty for a while.

The Jurchen and other Yiding continued to slaughter in the name of these feudal lords who refused to accept the king.

The Ming Dynasty is also continuing to add Yiding to the Indian subcontinent, so that the Indian subcontinent has been completely hunted by many foreign tribes.

However, after the Jurchen and other Yiding arrived in the Indian subcontinent, they began to do not want the Ming to add new green battalions and auxiliary battalions, and even began to tell the Indian governors stationed here that they could completely conquer the Mughals for the Ming Dynasty without the need for the Ming court to add new troops.

However, the Ming court naturally did not listen, and still continued to increase the strength of the green battalion and the auxiliary battalion here on the grounds that the conquest of the Mughal Empire was too slow.

Who told Zhu Yijun and his ruling ministers that the strategy was to drive all the Yiding in the east of the north of the Ming Dynasty here.

Yehebu's Yangjinu also saw the strategic purpose of the Ming Dynasty in the Mughals, and couldn't help but say to Jin Taiji while wiping the bloody knife:

"We must conquer all the Nanban here who refuse to surrender as soon as possible, so that the imperial court has no reason to send new tribes!" (End of chapter)
