Chapter 544 Changes in Yunnan Province, Only Naturalization

According to historical records, because of Mu Qiyuan's reckless behavior, his mother Song was afraid of causing trouble for the family, so she poisoned Mu Qiyuan to death.

The emperor didn't want to know the reason, let alone send someone to investigate.Mu Qiyuan's death, no matter what the reason, was a great thing for him.

In addition to the prestige of the Mu family in Yunnan for hundreds of years, their strength has been greatly weakened.And Mu Tianbo was only one year old, so he couldn't bear the heavy responsibility of Lord Qian.

It can be said that now the emperor has a better chance to control Yunnan in his hands more quickly.As for the Mu family's permanent township in Dian province, in his opinion, it was a joke at all.

Nothing lasts forever, even the Ming Empire is the same.If the advantages are not eliminated and the disadvantages are not exploited, the empire will collapse and Yunnan Province will be in chaos.

Just like Liaodong, Li Chengliang was able to guard the stability, but when he was old and faint, he let Jiannu take the opportunity to rise.

The same is true for the Mu family. The bravery of the previous generations, the mediocrity of the later generations, and the current decline are all obvious.

If the imperial court does not take the opportunity to seize control of Yunnan Province, the Shapu Rebellion in history may not be avoided, and the Taungoo Dynasty in Myanmar is still a border problem.

The emperor had thought it over clearly, and immediately took a pen in his hand, and wrote a secret decree to Fu Zonglong and Wang Sanshan.

There is no suspense about the suppression of the She'an rebellion, and [-] elite soldiers can be dispatched to escort Wang Sanshan into Yunnan.

Now, the emperor made another decree to transfer 1 troops from Guizhou, Guangxi, and Sichuan. Wang Sanshan recruited [-] troops in Dian Province, and [-] Ming troops will completely control Dian Province in the hands of the imperial court.

Duke Qian's title is still retained, and Mu Tianbo can inherit it, but only Kongjue, who has no power and no soldiers, is left.The seal of the general who conquered the South will also be taken back.You can expect a one-year-old child to go to war, it's ridiculous?
After writing the two secret decrees, the emperor thought for a while, and ordered the palace staff to call Sun Chengzong into the palace.

.....................

The major policies of the country are often changed according to the national character and the mainstream thinking at that time.

In the Han Dynasty, Confucianism was the only one, but it had the boldness and domineering spirit of "those who offend me will be punished even if they are far away".

The Song Dynasty was also Confucianism, but it became a humiliating and weak Han dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty also advocated Confucianism, not only in the conquest and expansion of Taizu and Emperor Yongle, but also in the later decline of Wanli, Tianqi, Chongzhen, and even the kingdom.

The emperor wants to re-strengthen the army to fight, expand and plunder, not only to improve weapons and equipment and morale, but more importantly, to forge the national spirit.

Keep forging ahead, take risks and open up, instead of being stubborn and arrogant in the fantasy of the heaven and the kingdom.

And to stimulate or maintain this spirit, the best way is to come from outside pressure.Jiannu can be regarded as one of them, which made Daming spend all its financial and material resources and manpower to create tens of thousands of elite teachers.

The Mongolian tribes in the north are counted as one, making the soldiers in the nine border towns the best in the country in terms of combat power.

If there are no foreign enemies, will the country's power be declining and the accumulated evils will be worsening in the long-term wear and tear of peace?
The emperor didn't think so, and there was no foreign enemy to make.The remaining slaves can be counted, as can the nomadic tribes in the north, Burma and Annan in the southwest, and the Xiyi on the sea.

In his opinion, the Mongolian tribes in the north are no longer a big threat.Although it can be used as an imaginary enemy, the Northern Army Town can maintain its due combat power.

Naturalization, or joining the Ming nationality, in the eyes of the emperor, is the best way to achieve the best of both worlds.It not only weakened Lin Dan Khan's power, but also absorbed the Mongolian tribes, transforming it into the fighting power of Ming Dynasty.

Attracting scattered Mongolian herdsmen to naturalize, and the nobles of the Horqin tribe being pardoned and left behind was the emperor's move.Jiannu was defeated and fled to the north, and it was also when this move came to fruition.

Silhunak Dulen and his entourage walked out of the governor's office in Liaoyang, and he couldn't help but look back, his expression became more and more bitter.

The Horqin tribe had already been defeated, but it was destroyed under the joint attack of the Ming army and the Chahar tribe.Because of this, he led a total of more than 3000 households from the Uqiyet and Urut tribes to relocate to Horqin.

But he never expected that the Ming court quickly released a trick, and when Jiannu fled north and could no longer pose a threat, he released the nobles of the Horqin tribe, and with the support of the Ming court, the Horqin tribe was restored.

With the support of the Ming court and the deterrence of naturalized flying cavalry, even Lin Danhan would not dare to act lightly, let alone the more than 3000 households he leads.

Everything depends on strength, and with the great backing of the Ming Dynasty, even though the restored Horqin Tribe does not have many members, the Horqin Prairie is already their territory.

"The emperor of the Ming Dynasty was not satisfied with surrender, but completely subdued and annexed."

Sirhunak Dulen shook his head. He didn't realize the change of the times, but only saw the change of the Ming emperor's policy towards the Mongolian tribes.

"The more Mongolian tribes are naturalized, the weaker the Huduntu is. Ming's plan is obviously far-reaching, not limited to immediate interests."

Sirhunak Dulen knew that the naturalized Mongolian tribes would bring a great burden to the Ming Dynasty.After all, they have been naturalized and are citizens of Daming, not something Ming can control with the horse market.

But for high-ranking Mongolians like Hunak Dulen, naturalization is something they don't want.Ordinary herdsmen are on the contrary. They become the people of Ming Dynasty and will receive a stable supply of food and materials.

In fact, this is similar to the way the emperor weakened the chieftain.

Ordinary herdsmen of the Mongolian tribes were treated similarly to serfs under the chieftain.Therefore, after naturalization, they will get a lot of freedom and a better life.

Hunak Dulen didn't leave right away, he waited not far from the governor's office.Nuke was still inside, and the relationship between the Zarut Department and the Ming army was very good. He wondered whether the Zarut Department would receive special treatment from the court.

Time passed slowly, and Hunak Dulen became anxious in his heart.It wasn't until several familiar figures appeared that he breathed a sigh of relief.

Nuke's expression was not good-looking, and his steps were a little heavy.It was some distance away from the governor's office before he took over the horse led by his entourage and turned on his back.

Not far away, Nuke was stopped by Hunak Dulen.

Looking up at Hunak Dulen, Nuke rolled his eyes and said, "There's no need to inquire, my Zalut Department has decided to naturalize Daming."

Hunak Dulen blinked his eyes, forced a smile and said, "The Five-Party Alliance of Nekarka, just disbanded?"

Nuke snorted, and said: "Whether to disband or not depends on their intentions. I want Ming to send troops to help, so as not to attack Huduntu and annex them, but I don't want to be naturalized. Do you think this is a good thing?"

Hunak Dulen smiled wryly. He felt that the Zalut Department should have received more favorable conditions before agreeing to become a naturalized Ming Dynasty.

Also, Nook had a point.Huduntu's plan to unify the various tribes of Mongolia will not change. The Inner Kalkha Alliance has no strength to fight, and the Ming army will not do things that are not beneficial to itself.

Nuke pulled his horse's head and went forward. When he passed Hunak Dulen, he added another sentence, "There are five Zasaks in the Horqin Grassland, and there will be none if it is too late."
