Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 825, Comprehensive Ming Dynasty Policy
Liu Jin glanced around and knew that many people were unhappy and some were dissatisfied, but what did it matter? Daming's policies must still be strictly implemented, this is for the long-term stability of the Western Regions, and also for the future of Daming.

"First, all the tribes in the Western Regions must fully learn the official dialect of the Ming Dynasty, learn the language of the Ming Dynasty, change the Chinese surnames, adopt Chinese names, respect Confucius and Mencius, learn rituals, and uniformly use the language and characters of the Ming Dynasty."

Liu Jin took out a piece of paper and read out the first article gently.

"what?"

"This is impossible!"

"We would rather die in battle than give up our own language and writing."

As soon as Liu Jin finished speaking, someone hurriedly stood up and spoke.

The people of Daming are really bullying, there is no such thing as bullying.

In the past, even when Genghis Khan ruled the entire vast territory, he did not require everyone to use the Mongolian language and Mongolian characters uniformly, and did not require everyone to abandon their own tribe's language, characters and customs, and learn from the Mongolians comprehensively.

Now the people of Ming Dynasty are good, so they are very strong in promoting Han culture, requiring all tribes not only to learn the language and characters of Ming Dynasty, but also to change Chinese surnames, adopt Chinese names, respect Confucius and Mencius, and learn rituals, This is simply to completely destroy everything and their basis.

"If you don't want to, you can stand up. If you want to continue living on the land of our Ming Dynasty, you must abide by everything of our Ming Dynasty. If you don't want to abide by it, you can take your tribe and move away from my Ming Dynasty. Now I can You are allowed to move out."

"But if you don't want to move out, you must abide by my Ming's rules."

Liu Jin looked at the person who stood up, smiled, and said coldly.

Hearing Liu Jin's words, the scene of the original anger calmed down all of a sudden, and one by one sat in their seats and moved out?

Where to migrate?

After moving out, they will have a good life?

Think too much, migrating in the cold winter, and don't know how many people will die on the way.

"My lord, our ancestors have lived in the Western Regions for generations, this is our land, this is our home."

Someone said in a low voice, very unwilling, if they really follow this way, after decades or hundreds of years, will their tribe still be the original tribe?
I am afraid that they will be fully integrated into the Ming Dynasty soon, and the entire tribe will gradually disappear in the long river of history. Perhaps after many years, they will become the new Ming people.

"Which tribe are you from?"

Liu Jin looked at the other party and asked.

"I am Turkic~"

The other party thought for a while and replied.

"Turks?"

"As far as I know, the ancestors of the Turkic people should have lived on the current Mongolian grasslands, but they were defeated by the Tang Dynasty, so they had to move westward to the Western Regions and Central Asia. You are actually just doves occupying magpies' nests , use your force to drive or kill the local people, and then occupy this place."

"It can also be considered that our ancestors have lived here for generations. In the Han Dynasty, this Western Region was my Great Han's Protectorate of the Western Regions. It means that we lived in the Western Regions earlier than you."

Liu Jin thought for a while and said.

The changes here in the Western Regions are too great, with a long history, as long as there are powerful tribes in the east, north, and west, they will attack here, leaving too much, too much history here, and no one dares to say that they are the original of the Western Regions. resident.

"This…"

The other party became silent and had nothing to say.

"In the final analysis, it depends on whose fist is bigger. Of course, who has the final say. Isn't that the case here in the Western Regions?"

"Now my Ming Dynasty is strong and has occupied the Western Regions. Naturally, my Ming Dynasty has the final say on everything in the Western Regions. If you are willing to abide by my Ming rules, you can continue to live here in the Western Regions. If you don't want to, then you can take Take your scimitars and bows and arrows, and drive us out, and you have the final say in the Western Regions."

Then Liu Jin changed the subject and pointed out very directly that the truth is only under the scimitar and the bow and arrow.

Hearing Liu Jin's words, everyone was silent, and fell silent immediately.

That's right, this is the case in the Western Regions. It has been the case since ancient times. Whoever has a big fist will obey and submit to him. If this is the case, then there is nothing to say.

"For this reason, I, Ming Dynasty, will send a large number of teachers to the Western Regions, to your various tribes. I hope you will properly guarantee the safety and livelihood of these teachers."

"In addition, all tribes, even nomadic tribes, must establish fixed private schools and academies, and all school-age children must learn Chinese characters and Mandarin Chinese from an early age, respect Confucius and Mencius, and practice ethics."

"And for each tribe, according to the size of the tribe's population, within the specified time and time limit, you must produce a corresponding number of scholars, recruits, and even take my imperial examination in Ming Dynasty."

"In the imperial examination, if you can be a Jinshi and perform well, my Daming will treat them equally and give you official positions. Except for the route of the imperial examination, you have no chance to be an official in my Daming."

Liu Jin looked at the silent crowd, smiled and continued.

In the past, these tribes in the Western Regions could get a lot of official positions as long as they belonged to Ming Dynasty, and the positions were even very high, and they could be hereditary.

For example, the former Hamiwei Zhongshun King was like this. A tribe with only a few thousand people, their leaders were crowned kings, and they could be hereditary.

Now Liu Jin wants to break this situation and completely destroy the basis for the tribes in the Western Regions to become a prince. If you want to be an official, you must take the imperial examination.

After the imperial examination, you can be an official, but the Ming court has already established a rule that you must be an official in a different place. At that time, you can be assigned to Nanyang, Australia, or even the Golden Continent. You go back to the Western Regions.

As for the others, they are all the most ordinary people in Daming, even the leaders of the tribes. Daming will no longer recognize any tribal leaders in the future.

Completely break the tribal leader system, break the rule and leadership of these tribal leaders over large and small tribes, just like the northern grasslands, get these tribal leaders to the capital, and the herdsmen below will naturally become scattered sand, the tribal leaders Gradually lose the basis of dominance.

The situation in the Western Regions is a bit special, because the chiefs and nobles of these tribes basically died in the previous battle, so it would be better.

Everyone fell silent again. At first, they thought that Daming would call them to a meeting, and they would give them a half-job or something. Now, they don’t have any official positions. If they want to be officials in the future, they have to take the imperial examination.

This made them even more disappointed and disappointed.

But fortunately, it seems that the emperor of Ming Dynasty really regards them as his own people, requires them to study the Four Books and Five Classics, and requires them to take the imperial examination.

This point, many people still know that people in Ming Dynasty must take the imperial examination if they want to be an official.

"My lord, I have a question~"

At this time, Alimu stood up tremblingly and said.

"Old man, what questions do you have?"

Liu Jin nodded slightly and said.

"My lord, we have learned everything about Ming Dynasty, but can we be allowed to keep our own language and characters, and our own customs and habits?"

Alimu thought for a while and asked.

Daming was too strong, he didn't dare to say 'no', because all the tribes in the Western Regions had been hit hard, they needed time to recover their strength, when the little lambs grew up and their tribe's strength recovered, they would naturally You will have a stronger right to speak, and then it will be different.

"There are many tribes in the Western Regions. There are dozens or hundreds of tribes, large and small. If every tribe requires this, then the entire Western Regions will always be in a state of fragmentation, and everyone will never be able to integrate together."

"Naturally, at a time when the Western Regions will never be peaceful, we Da Ming did this and asked everyone to learn everything about my Da Ming in order to promote the integration of the various tribes in the Western Regions, eliminate the barriers between each other, and build a peaceful and peaceful society. The Western Regions, so that everyone can enjoy prosperity."

"The interests of the big tribes are very important, and the interests of the small tribes are equally important. Everyone is a citizen of my Great Ming, and a citizen of my Great Ming."

"You enjoy the many benefits and conveniences brought by my Ming Dynasty, and you also have to abide by everything about my Ming Dynasty, learn everything about my Ming Dynasty, and it is also for the long-term interests of all tribes."

"It's also for the sake of everyone's concerted efforts to unite when encountering difficulties, to jointly defend our great emperor, and to safeguard the stability, prosperity, and peace of our Western Regions."

Liu Jin pondered for a while, thought for a while and replied.

Liu Jin's words also made many people from small tribes nod. There are many, many small tribes here in the Western Regions. They think that life for these small tribes is very difficult. They have been oppressed and squeezed by powerful tribes. Now Da Ming treats them equally. That's great, and everyone is willing to accept it.

As for the comprehensive Ming Dynasty, what does it matter? As long as it is in the interests of their own tribe, the Ming Dynasty should be Minghua. If the Ming Dynasty is strong, prosperous and rich, it will be more beneficial for their tribe to integrate into the Ming Dynasty.

"Your Excellency is right, we are willing to learn everything about Daming in an all-round way~ Always be loyal to the son of Daming, loyal to Daming!"

A tribal leader who had defected to Ming Dynasty for a long time stood up and took the lead.

Liu Jin smiled and nodded slightly, a child can be taught.

"Second, the tribes in the Western Regions are not allowed to form an army. All weapons and equipment owned by the tribes must be handed over. The peace of the Western Regions will be guarded by our Ming army."

"Article [-]..."

Liu Jin read out one by one. This series of policies was called the comprehensive Ming Dynasty policy by historians in later generations. It was first implemented in the Western Regions, and then gradually extended to all newly included territories of the Ming Dynasty, laying the foundation for the vast territory of the Ming Dynasty. Base.
