Chapter 349 The pros and cons of naturalization

In fact, the emperor rarely used any conspiracy, but the open conspiracy made based on the general trend of historical development is even more difficult to solve.

For example, when Ping Liao defeated the slaves, it means that the soldiers were strong and the food was sufficient, and then crushed with absolute advantage of firepower; for example, the measures against the Mongolian tribes were even more accurate in the impact of major disasters on the grasslands.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t naturalize. You can just stand up to Lin Danhan’s “Annei”. Or, when a major disaster comes, it’s considered you’re awesome to not starve to death.

With the two factors of Lin Dankhan and the Great Disaster, the emperor knew that most Mongolian tribes would surrender and naturalize.

Of course, there is another way, that is, to raise troops and loot. But the Ming army's increasingly powerful combat power gave the emperor a strong confidence in victory.

And Ma Chengfei basically made the statement in this informal occasion.

Naturalization means that the people of the Ming Dynasty will do their best to help, not only to resist Lin Danhan, but also to supply food and supplies.

If you don’t naturalize, you will not be regarded as an enemy. The horse market trade will continue. Lin Danhan wants to attack again, so please be blessed.

Nuke also understood that although Ma Chengfei also said that he would take special care of the Zarut tribe in terms of his past friendship, this was still far from the purpose of his visit.

Maybe there will be a turnaround when you meet Mangui and Lord Yuan?

Hunakduling and Nuuk thought of this unlikely possibility at the same time, but then they became interested in the Zasak set up by the Emperor of Ming Dynasty.

Zazak, the Mongolian word "consul" means historically, which was mainly awarded military and political official titles to Mongolians and Manchus by the Qing Dynasty.

Zhu Youxiao also used this official title, but only turned the flag divided by the Qing Dynasty into a district, mainly composed of nobles such as Beile, Beizi, Gong, and Taiji in Mongolia.

The administrative division above the district is called a special zone, which is equivalent to "union".

Lin Danhan's destruction was destined, not only did it himself, but the Ming Dynasty, without the threat of Jiannu, would not allow him to unify Mongolia.

Moreover, the policies implemented by Lin Dankhan have caused rebellion from more Mongolian tribes, indicating that the political core of Mongolian society is collapsing.

The task of the Ming Dynasty was to fill this gap, replace it with its own system and order, and reorganize the power of the Mongolian tribes.

In the emperor's opinion, border defenses are simply unreliable to rely on obstacles. Look at the Great Wall, built during the Qin Dynasty, but did the border problems be eliminated in the Han, Tang, Song, and even Ming Dynasty?

Therefore, the emperor accelerated the naturalization of the Mongolian tribes and turned the defense line of death in the north of the Ming Dynasty into a Pingfan composed of Mongolian tribes.

In the process of prefabricating districts and special districts, some will be appointed by the court to the general and the general to be directly controlled by the general; the other will be appointed by the Mongolian nobles.

As fierce as a tiger, as powerful as a tiger, as well as naturalized generals, as well as Man Gui who no longer quarrels about himself, is very hopeful to become a "Zazak" in the future.

There is only one principle: the local organizations of Mongolian tribes can only belong to the court, and cannot produce a new political core foundation that competes with the court.

Of course, Nuke and Duling didn't know about these. They are only concerned about how much power they can have after naturalization of the Ming Dynasty and how big the grassland they can have.

Even the Wu Keshan brothers seemed to be very clear about these. Obviously, the Ming Dynasty court should be very cautious, and the system of special districts is still in the experimental stage for this prefecture.

"Mr. Buhe has been appointed as the Right Minister of the Ministry of Rites of the Ming Dynasty, in charge of affairs of naturalized ethnic groups?"

Hunakduling was obviously surprised. According to his understanding of the Ming Dynasty's official system, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites was the third rank, and he was already considered a high-ranking official in the court.

Wu Keshan nodded proudly. As a high-ranking official, his father was undoubtedly his capital to show off.

Originally, the emperor wanted to set up a new institution similar to the Qing Dynasty's Lifan Academy, but he felt that it was not mature enough, so it was a temporary solution to put the cloth and the Ministry of Rites for the time being.

In the future, the emperor would intend to promote some ethnic minority officials to make the naturalization work more smoothly.

"Long live and open-minded people, treat the naturalized people of all races equally." Ma Chengfei interrupted, "Yehe, Ula and other tribes of the Jurchens also have official positions, and civilians have their own places to resettle."

The naturalized Mongolian and Jurchen tribes not only wanted to be appointed to the office, but also had long-term supervision and control measures, and would become tools for the Ming Dynasty to expand its territory to the north.

If you want the tribe to live a good life, you have to work hard. The emperor is not a good man and a trustworthy boy, nor is he a rich boy. He will not do anything without profit.

Hunakduling naturally knew the pros and cons of naturalization of the Ming Dynasty. It was just nominal naturalization, and it still retained its independent status. The Ming Dynasty also had to supply food and food. How could there be such a good thing in the world?

What he lost was the power of the local emperor and what he got was the protection of the Ming Dynasty.

Hunakduling knew very well that for the tribe, ordinary herders would suffer no losses and their lives would be better. For the nobles, they would definitely not be willing to accept such a result.

To put it bluntly, ordinary herdsmen did not have much resistance to naturalization. Just when preferential policies were not introduced before, many Mongolians also fled to Ming Dynasty due to their lives and became naturalized people.

If others don’t say it, the people sitting opposite him as fierce as a tiger, with great power, and naturalized flying cavalry camp, aren’t they all become Ming people like this?

The establishment of administrative divisions such as districts and special zones, as well as administrative management organizations at all levels, targets the Mongolian nobles, so that they can retain certain power.

Proper resettlement of naturalized civilians to make their lives worry-free is aimed at the common people.

This is really comprehensive and thoughtful! Hunakduling took a big sip of wine, and then felt bitter after spicy.

When Ma Chengfei saw the change in Hunakduling's expression, he probably guessed what he was thinking. He didn't care very much about whether his tribes could naturalize.

Under the current situation, the naturalized Ming Dynasty can still retain some power and manage its ministries. But if it is "secured" by Lin Danhan, there will be nothing left.

The two evils are the least of the right ones, but now they are hesitant, but they are still not forced to do so.

"General—" Nuke suddenly discovered the strange thing on Feng Ruhu's head, and pointed with the alcohol, "What is this, is the headband?"

Hu Dawei laughed and nodded, "That's right, that's right. This is the headband of the fierce general. He sometimes wears jewelry!"

Feng Ruhu rolled his eyes, pulled the weird thing down, pressed it on his eyes, picked his chin at Nuuk, and said, "This is called goggles. No matter how strong the wind and snow are, it will not arouse the eyes, but it will not affect the sight."

Nuke looked at the fierce eyes behind the transparent glass lenses, and showed an envious expression.

"The army has just started to issue distribution, and even Man Shuai only has one pair." Hu Dawei explained: "When there are more, I will definitely leave one pair for you."
