Chapter 278 Clouds in all directions (3)
"My Ming people, but we are Mongolians." Hu Dawei looked at Nuke's somewhat stunned look and explained with a smile: "Even General Man is a Mongolian, and he just got the gift of Long Live."
Nuke blinked his eyes, laughed twice, and said, "I understand, I am a naturalized Ming Dynasty, I am a native of the Ming Dynasty!"
Meng Ruhu glanced at Nuke and shook his head secretly. It was not very accurate to say that it was just naturalization. But now there is no need to say it too clearly, it is not time yet.
The Ming Dynasty was originally a multi-ethnic country. From the officials and generals who surrendered and surrendered in the Yuan Dynasty, to the nomadic peoples naturalized from the northern grasslands, the Ming Dynasty had a broad mind.
Zhu Youxiao had the mind and vision that other emperors did not have, and there was no question of discrimination. The clues could be seen by Man Gui's reputation as Mongolian naturalization.
Although he used his scheming, he was honest in dealing with naturalized people. He was all the people of the Ming Dynasty and had no discrimination.
Man Gui was promoted one after another, and the tiger was powerful and fierce, and it was also among the generals. Even ordinary naturalized Mongolian soldiers were repeatedly commended for their bravery in combat.
Of course, the treatment after retirement is the same as that of the Ming army, and the disability and the pension for the death are no different.
The root of most dissatisfaction is unfairness. Zhu Youxiao tried his best to eliminate it, especially in the army.
Fairness and equality are two concepts. The salary of officers is higher than that of soldiers and better than soldiers. This should not cause dissatisfaction or resentment, but rather an incentive.
The ancients did not understand what "showing" means, but "buying horse bones for a thousand gold coins" is actually a kind of show.
Giving naturalized cavalry favorable treatment is a living advertisement for the Mongolian tribes and for the Mongolian tribes.
The Mongolian tribes were poor, so poor that they were only cattle, sheep and horses left. They were all poor, and they were all the lower-class herders, equivalent to the vast peasants of the Ming Dynasty. The Mongolian nobles were like the landlords and gentry of the Ming Dynasty, who had gained nothing for nothing and were full of energy.
Zhu Youxiao did not dislike the naturalized person who led his troops to join him; he was even more welcome to those who came to join him.
Just like the soldiers of the naturalized Flying Cavalry Camp, they were all Mongolians at the bottom. They could not survive under the exploitation of Mongolian nobles, so they defected to the Ming Dynasty.
Compared with those Mongolian nobles, if these single-person and single-family families live a better life, they will have a stronger sense of identity with the Ming Dynasty and will be more loyal to the Ming Dynasty.
Nuuk has not yet had the idea of naturalization. His father is the leader of the Zarut tribe and he is the heir. He is the native emperor on the grasslands of the Zarut tribe. Who would want to naturalize the Ming Dynasty if you are popular?
Of course, this is his perspective. The herdsmen of the Zarut tribe and the Mongolian soldiers of the Inner Khalkha tribes who came with him may not necessarily be the same as he thought.
Tens of thousands of cavalry, more than 200 baggage carriages, and more than 30 light artillery guns. The entire team was full of power and mighty, galloping on the yellowed Liaohe Pasture, running to Kaiyuan and Tieling.

Guangning, Xipingbao, Zhenwubao.
The main force of the Flying Cavalry Battalion in the Capital led by Zhou Yuji added 5,000 dragon cavalry from Guangning, and more than 10,000 surprise troops were stationed in these two fortresses.
In front of the sand table, Zhou Yuji carefully examined and thought again, and his focus fell more on an inconspicuous place - Huangniwa.
Huangniwa is in the northwest of Liaoyang, almost the shortest straight-line distance from Guangning to Liaoyang. During the Battle of Guangning, Jiannu set out from then on, crossed the Liaohetao, and went straight to Xiping Fort, and caught the Guangning Ming army off guard.
Now, this attack line will be used by the Ming army. When the Jiannu besieged from all sides, the strange troops broke out and went straight to Liaoyang and inserted into Jiannu's heart.
"Report to the general." Jun Zhongzanhua came forward to report, "The vanguard troops sent back the news, the wood was collected, and the location where the floating bridge was built was also investigated and confirmed."
Zhou Yuji nodded and said, "Tag it!"
The psalm answered, marking the route and the location of the crossing of the river on the sand table. You need to go directly to Huangniwa from Xiping Fort, and there are two rivers in the middle that need to be crossed, one is the Liao River and the other is the Clam River.
If we choose to start in the middle of winter like Jiannu, the river will be frozen and people will pass by the ice. However, the Ming army could not wait for that time and must prepare to cross the river in advance.
Although the Liao River is wide, it is not difficult to cross it with the help of the Ming navy; although the Clam River is narrow, it requires a floating bridge to pass through people, horses and vehicles.
Seeing the sand table changing under the mark of the praise painting, Zhou Yuji touched his chin and said to himself: "How long does it take to build a floating bridge? This also needs to be estimated accurately."
Zanhua bowed and said, "With the help of the general, the boat can be transported from the Liao River to the Clam River from land. According to the report of the vanguard's road exploration force, the river crossing location is only a hundred meters wide. At the end, I will think that half a day is enough!"
Zhou Yuji looked at Zanhua and looked a little surprised. He was not asking a question at first, but Zanhua's answer was a plan that was fine and could not miss it.
"The Wu Jiazhi was transferred from martial arts." Zhou Yuji nodded in admiration and said, "It's very good. If you have any suggestions, you might as well say them together!"
Wu Jiazhi pursed his lips and said, "The roads must also be investigated in detail and handled appropriately. After all, there are a lot of warm land in the mud and swamps, which may affect our army's progress."
After pausing, he added: "The newly opened engineering department of martial arts is a major in this. Although the study time is still short, it can be used."
"Okay, very good." Zhou Yuji reached out to take the order and handed it to Wu Jiazhi, "You will leave these tasks to you."
Wu Jiazhi bowed to receive the order, bowed and said, "Yes, General."
The original artillery department, cavalry department, infantry department, and the staff department and engineering department were only established this year, and not many people were recruited.
Zhou Yuji was not very familiar with this staff department, and thought he was just to train officers who praised paintings in the army.
But Wu Jiazhi was transferred for not long, so Zhou Yuji had a good impression of him and was very capable in doing things, which saved him a lot of worry.
Now, Wu Jiazhi's advice made him even more lit up, and he felt that the newly established staff department of Wansui Institute was really a bit tricky.
Well, there is also the engineering department, which is probably very powerful. Building bridges and roads is also required for combat, and it is definitely better than doing part-time jobs in ordinary troops.
There is no need to have such a pony painting around you to help, two or three can greatly reduce your workload. Zhou Yuji looked at Wu Jiazhi's departure back and smiled while touching his chin.

Haizhou Acropolis.
Tong Yangxing stood at the top of the city, looking at the increasingly tight and sturdy Ming army camp outside the city, and couldn't help but squint.
The trenches and camps, and the Ming army had already firmly surrounded Haicheng. Yuetuo and Jiergalang's two red flags attacked several times, but they could not shake the Ming army with strong troops and sharp weapons.
