Chapter 168: United Mongolia to make gold

I will keep an update today and tomorrow. I will really save some articles and should be put on the shelves next week. Please forgive me.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

After the rise of the Later Jin Dynasty, Nurhaci realized that uniting the Mongolian tribe was crucial to unifying the Jurchens and even fighting the Ming Dynasty.

In April of the 40th year of Wanli, Nurhaci took the initiative to hire a daughter as a concubine from the Korqin tribe of Mongolia, and since then he started the road of marriage between Manchuria and Mongolia.

In the 45th year of Wanli, Nurhaci specially granted marriage to Engedel, the nobles of the Khalkha tribe, to win over the previously hostile Khalkha tribe. The two tribes ended their hostility.

Faced with the deteriorating situation in Liaodong, the Ming court also quickly took measures to stabilize the situation. On the one hand, it restored Xiong Tingbi, and on the other hand, it also sought external assistance to curb the strong rise of the Later Jin Dynasty.

Since the 47th year of Wanli, the Ming Dynasty changed its policy of economic blockade and focused on winning over Lin Danhan of the Chahar tribe. He gave a total of arrow rewards, rewarded nearly 50,000 taels of silver for horses, and agreed to give a reward of 1,000 taels of silver every year.

Lin Danhan expressed his support for the Ming court very actively. Although he did not go directly with the Later Jin Dynasty, he still sent troops to support him when the war in Liaodong was in critical condition, which played a certain role in hindrance.

But Zhu Youxiao was not satisfied with this kind of hindrance. He didn't believe Lin Danhan's ability.

Therefore, he should join more actively in the battle with the Later Jin for the Mongolian tribes, so as to minimize the negative impact of Lin Danhan's brain-dead behavior.

Since all Mongolian tribes cannot do without the supplies of the Ming Dynasty, they will rely more on them in the future. Don’t give them a reward for nothing, and you have to really work hard.

In order to show actual support for the Ming Dynasty, each unit drew up troops and formed a coalition force, which was commanded by the Ming court. Wouldn't it put more pressure on the Later Jin Dynasty?

Zhu Youzhao could not manage Lin Danhan to go crazy, but at least he could steal some of the troops from the Mongolian tribe he defeated and prevent all the Later Jin Dynasty from accepting it.

"I want you to lead the Feiqi Camp and temporarily stay in Jinzhou or Daling River, thinking of Ningyuan outpost."

Zhu Youxiao finished his own idea and concluded: "If the Eastern Barbarians attacked in large numbers, the Flying Cavalry Battalion could be transferred in time and not engaged in battle with them; when the troops were strong, they could not only disturb the enemy, but also launch a counterattack."

Man Gui's big eyes turned around, almost understood the emperor's meaning, and said, "Long live, let me say that it is a Mongolian, so that I can command the surrendered soldiers of the Western Captains in the future?"

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "This is just the beginning. In the future, I will send troops to Daningwei to build cities and roads, thinking that Xuanda barriers. The front line of the Great Wall will become a Great Wall area, so that our northern border of Ming Dynasty can be safeguarded."

As he said that, Zhu Youxiao pointed to Mangui and said aloud: "You will be the example set by the court and attract more Mongolians to naturalize me in the Ming Dynasty."

His Majesty the Emperor has such ambitions? Not only to wipe out the Eastern Captains, but also to conquer the grassland and establish merits that surpass Taizu and Chengzu!

You should know that Daningwei was given up by Chengzu voluntarily, and it was really difficult to defend it, and it was too difficult to transport materials alone.

Man Gui didn't care about this. Since the emperor decided to entrust himself with important tasks, what's so great about being a Mongolian? It won't be delayed to be promoted.

"Longsui has this grand plan, I dare not be loyal and do my best." Man Gui bowed and said, "Longsui said I am a Mongolian or a Mongolian, and said I am a Han or a Han person."

That's right. I didn't ask you to say that you are something else. What's the difficulty of changing a nation for the time being? I'm not discriminating against the Mongolians.

Zhu Youxiao nodded repeatedly with a smile and said, "Manqing is loyal and commendable, I am very pleased. Go to the Martial Arts Cavalry Department to study first, and wait until the two thousand Mongolian cavalry gathered, and after a little training, it will not be too late to go to Jinzhou."

"Long live back, I'm very smart at riding and shooting, so I don't need to learn anymore." Man Gui was quite confident about this.

Look, you are so good at riding and shooting, and you also say you are not a Mongolian person.

Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said, "Carrying and shooting alone is not enough. You need to have a more powerful tactic to deal with the Donglu. Well, learn first, and you will know that using cavalry is a big deal!"

Man Gui hurriedly agreed, and said the same thing, "Long live the empress do whatever he wants me to do, I empress do whatever he wants me to do."

Right, based on my IQ, who do you listen to if you don’t listen to me?

Zhu Youxiao was very satisfied and immediately promoted Man Gui to deputy general, and also gave him a set of armor and a saber.

The armor is the standard of Ming army generals, which is very majestic; the shape of the sabers is a bit weird, but the appearance is also very beautiful. Of course, Man Gui didn't know that this was a high-end product made of crucible steel, which was specially used to reward generals in the army.

Hey, this is a good deal!

Man Gui grinned and retreated, holding the armored sabre, happily thinking along the way: Isn’t it just pretending to be a Mongolian? What’s the point? The reward for promotion is much easier than cutting off the head!

Hey? Are I a Mongolian? Should I ask about this when I go home?

In the hall, Zhu Youxiao was wandering around the sand table, perfecting the grand strategy of joining Mongolia to make the Later Jin Dynasty.

Now, Korqin has turned to the Later Jin Dynasty. Because of his strength, Kharkhaze has surrendered to the Later Jin Dynasty on the surface, but it has a secret relationship with the Ming and Ming Dynasties.

If the current state is maintained, it will be beneficial to the Ming Dynasty. The Chahar tribe in the left-wing Mongolian has been fought for, and even if the Khalkha remains neutral, the Later Jin will not be strengthened.

But Lin Danhan was not very smart in history, and he dreamed of restoring the unification of Mongolia and rebuilding Genghis Khan's hegemony, and did not look at the current situation.

As a result, because of the left-wing Mongolian civil war initiated by Lin Danhan, Kharkha forced Khorchin and Khalkha to fully invest in the Later Jin Dynasty.

Then, under several attacks from the Later Jin Dynasty, Lin Danhan had no choice but to carry out a strategic transfer and led his troops to the right-wing Mongolia to the west, and finally died of illness in Qinghai.

The defeat of the Chahar tribe led to the conquest of Mongolia in the southern desert by the Later Jin. In the Ming Dynasty, Xuanda faced the threat and also created conditions for the Later Jin to attack the Ming Dynasty.

It is actually quite difficult for Zhu Youxiao to change this historical trend. Because he is not a veterinarian, he cannot cure Lin Danhan's intermittent mad cow disease.

But if you change your thinking, there are still many ways, it depends on whether you can grasp the root cause of the changes in the situation.

That's right, Lin Danhan or Hudun Rabbit can hardly realize the ambition to unify the Mongolian tribes because of the existence of the Later Jin Dynasty and actively intervening in the civil war between the Mongolian tribes.

The Mongolian tribes have successively turned to the Later Jin Dynasty, one by one, but they cannot defeat them, and the other is that they can get benefits.

If the Later Jin did not win over the property of the Mongolian tribes, even if they used force to force the Mongolian tribes to form an alliance, they would still be "a alliance" and could not make the Mongolian tribes willing to surrender and work hard.

This is just like the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and the Mongolian tribes. If you are pacified, you will be at peace; if you are not pacified, you will be warned.

Compared with the Later Jin Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty was obviously more powerful in materials and money, and it was more attractive to the Mongolian tribes.

Therefore, the Ming army in the northern border town must become stronger as soon as possible, which is the basis for implementing various strategies.

First of all, the Ming army must be able to withstand the looting of Mongolian tribes in order to control it with the two most powerful means of market reward and trade;

Secondly, the Ming army had to put enough military pressure on the Later Jin Dynasty, at least it could disturb the attacks and restrain and destroy the Later Jin Dynasty's expedition against the Mongolian tribes;

Finally, we will solve the problem more thoroughly, that is, we will reoccupy Daningwei, and then push the front to Yizhou (Yi County, Liaoning, Fuxin), forming two strategic points with Ningyuan and Jinzhou.

This not only prevents the Later Jin from advancing westward, but also re-establishes connections with the left-wing Mongolian tribes and forms a pincer attack on the Later Jin with the Ming army group in Ningyuan.

Well, if such a strategic situation can be formed, it will not be a three-party arrangement, but a four-party attack.

Zhu Youxiao touched his chin and let out a hey laugh.
