Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 912, you can go to the west to grab it

On the blanket made of cashmere, Han Yi and Huo Ying looked at Murendek Khan and the leaders of many tribes of the Kazakh Khanate with a smile on his face.

Murendek Khan is still very young, tall and tall, with a straight nose, but his eyes are similar to Mongolian eyes, relatively small and narrow. Obviously, the Khan of the Kazakh Khanate really has a golden family Bloodline, there is Mongolian blood in it.

Han Yi and Huo Ying were carefully sizing up Mulundekhan, while Mulundekhan and the others were also carefully sizing up the Ming general in front of them.

The clothes of Han Yi and Huo Ying are the same as those of other Ming soldiers around them, the same armor, helmet, saber, bow and arrow, and musket, except that there is an extra red cloak on the back.

Han Yi was younger and older, but Huo Ying was very young, and the Ming soldiers around him were also very young.

"I'm Murendek, and I'm here to participate in the peace talks at your invitation. Is this how you Ming received the lord of a country?"

Murendek Khan looked at Han Yi, Huo Ying and the others, and said in a haughty tone.

He is the khan of the Kazakh Khanate, the eagle in the sky, even if he is defeated, he is still the king of a country, and he should look and be treated like a king of a country.

"The battlefield is simple, everything is simple, sweat please sit down!"

Han Yi nodded slightly and said.

"Please~"

Mulundek Khan didn't bother about these things, and knew that it was useless to worry about them. Instead, he sat on the floor on the blanket very refreshingly. The same was true for Han Yi, Huo Ying and others, who sat cross-legged in front of Mulundek Khan and others opposite.

"Don't know the general's name?"

Murendek Khan looked at the Ming army who sat down neatly in front of him, his beard twitched slightly, and he asked after thinking about it.

"My name is Han Yi, and this is Huo Ying..."

Han Yi briefly introduced the main generals on his side.

"General Han, I don't know where our Kazakh Khanate offended the Ming Empire, so much so that the Ming Empire sent troops to attack our Kazakh Khanate, and even burned, killed and looted wantonly in our Kazakh Khanate."

After some politeness, Murendek Khan also questioned with his own face, even though he knew in his heart that this matter was caused by himself, but when negotiating, he still wanted to push the responsibility to Daming here.

"Your Excellency should be very clear why our Ming Dynasty sent troops to attack your Kazakh Khanate."

Han Yi looked at Murendek Khan, and said lightly: "If it weren't for your Kazakh Khanate, the Timur Khanate, the Shaybani Khanate, and [-] tribes, large and small, to attack our Ming Dynasty together In the middle of the river, how can our Ming Dynasty attack your Kazakh Khanate?"

"This Hezhong area is not your Ming Empire's. The Hezhong area has always been the place of our Central Asian countries and tribes. Your Daming occupied it strongly last winter. We just want to get back what belongs to us."

When Murendek Khan heard this, he immediately said very angrily.

"Big Khan is no longer a three-year-old kid. He should know the truth of the law of the jungle. What's the use of talking about it?"

"My Daming occupied the Hezhong area, and the Hezhong area belongs to my Daming. You can take it back if you have the ability. If you attack my Daming's Hezhong area, we will naturally take revenge on you."

"On the grassland, hasn't it been like this since ancient times?"

Han Yi looked at the other party, smiled and said.

There is no point in talking about these things anymore. Anyway, the Hezhong area was indeed snatched from them by Da Ming. If it is true or wrong, it is natural that Da Ming invaded the countries and tribes of Central Asia first.

"The general is right. It has been like this since ancient times on the grasslands. The law of the jungle preys on the strong. There is no right or wrong, only who is stronger."

After listening, Murendek Khan pondered for a while and nodded solemnly in agreement.

It's useless to talk about it, Daming Qiang, if he wants to bully you, what can you do?
If they can defeat the people of Ming Dynasty, it will be a bloody debt, and they will go to Daming, just like those tribes who entered the Central Plains in history, what they did in Daming was burning, killing and looting?
"Our Kazakh Khanate is willing to pay tribute to Ming Dynasty, and pay tribute to Ming Dynasty with [-] good horses every year."

"I don't know if such conditions can be exchanged for peace between our Kazakh Khanate and Ming Dynasty?"

Murendek Khan thought for a while and said directly.

"I don't know if the Great Khan has heard about the fact that our Ming Dynasty swept the Southeast Asian countries last year?"

Han Yi smiled, but did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically.

"Slightly heard."

When Murendek Khan heard this, he was slightly taken aback, and thought for a while before replying.

After the Ming Dynasty swept the Western Regions and the Hezhong region last winter, all countries in Central Asia began to pay attention to the affairs of the Ming Dynasty, and many things about the Ming Dynasty also spread here.

Murendek Khan attached great importance to this, and even started to learn Ming dialect and Chinese characters. Coupled with the dissemination of the Ming Morning Post, he also knew a lot about Ming.

"The year before last, the Nanyang countries deliberately killed my Ming merchants and deliberately imposed heavy taxes on our Daming merchant ships. Our Emperor Da Ming was furious and sent [-] troops to attack the Nanyang countries. Wherever our Da Ming army went, we swept all directions. Those who are destroyed will destroy the country, those who surrender will be subdued, and those who are conquered by our Ming Dynasty will be obedient."

"Siam is also a country that was conquered by my Ming. For this, they need to pay my Ming [-] million taels of silver. In addition, they need to cede part of the country to my Ming. At the same time, my Ming merchants no longer do business in Siam. Taxes need to be paid, and Siam must also protect the safety of my Ming merchants."

Han Yi calmly talked about last year's Ming Dynasty's war against the countries in Southeast Asia, and brought up Siam as an example.

"Fifty million taels of silver?"

Hearing the translator's words, Murendek Khan's eyes couldn't help but widen.

Even though he is the great khan of the Kazakh Khanate, he has long been tired of looking at gold, silver and jewelry and the like. He couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

"If your Kazakh Khanate wants to live in peace with our Ming Dynasty, then your Kazakh Khanate must agree to the following terms with me."

"First, your Kazakh Khanate wants to pay Daming [-] million taels of silver. You can pay in installments, but interest must be included."

"Second, your Kazakh Khanate ceded the Dayuzzi Grassland to Daming."

"Thirdly, pay tribute to my Ming Dynasty. From now on, I will pay [-] good horses to my Ming Dynasty every year."

"Fourth, to allow our Ming merchants to enter your country for business and trade, your country must protect the personal safety of our Daming merchants."

Han Yi reported the conditions on his side.

Well, they all refer to Liu Jin's external style of doing things. It is necessary to cede land and pay compensation, and the merchant's trading rights must also be won.

"Will it be too much?"

Huo Ying next to him looked at Han Yi and gave him a look. Han Yi immediately understood.

"It's a bit too much, but if it's not too much, how can the Kazakh Khanate know the pain?"

Han Yi glanced back.

"Can they agree?"

"Agree even if you don't agree."

The two exchanged eye contact.

"No, I will never agree to such a condition. Fifty million taels of silver, even if we move all the gold and silver from our Kazakh Khanate, we don't have that much gold and silver."

"What's more, in the future, we will pay tribute to Daming with [-] good horses every year. This is simply not something that our Kazakh Khanate can afford. We can't afford so much wealth."

"This big Yuzi also belongs to our Kazakh Khanate, and it will never be ceded to you."

When Murendek Khan heard this, he immediately stood up angrily and said, and many tribal leaders next to him also stood up one by one, looking very excited and very angry.

"We would rather fight to the death, and would rather fight to the death, than agree to such a condition."

Murendek Khan said very firmly.

"Then you have to think about it."

Han Yi said lightly: "The [-] million silver war indemnity is not for you to take out at one time. You can pay it in installments. For example, if you divide it over [-] years, you need to pay more than [-] million taels a year. One of your horses can be sold for dozens of taels of silver in our Daming, that is to say, you can sell a hundred thousand horses."

"What's more, you can still go to rob, go to the west to rob, and grab gold, silver, cattle, sheep and horses, etc., which can be used to offset the war reparations."

"Fifty million taels of silver may seem like a lot, but it's actually less than a million good horses. It's almost enough to go to the west to rob a few countries."

"As for the Dayuzi Grassland, it's just a very common grassland. To the west, there are vast and fertile grasslands. You can grab them and grab them."

Han Yi said to Mulundek Khan and the others while counting with his fingers.

Hearing Han Yi's words, Murendek Khan and the others were also in a daze.

"Can the war reparations be paid in installments?"

A few million taels of silver a year is not much, not to mention, this installment, installment, I am strong, the ghost will continue to pay you in installments.

And what Han Yi said made sense.

If the Kazakh Khanate can't beat Ming Dynasty, will it fail other countries?
Ming people can rob themselves, so why can't they rob other countries?

The most difficult thing for Murendek Khan and others to accept is the high amount of war indemnity and the cession of the Dayuzi Grassland, but if you think about it carefully, if you can rob other countries, this seems to be acceptable.

"The annual tribute horses can only be [-] at most."

Murendek Khan slowly sat down on the blanket again, thought for a while and said.

"can!"

Han Yi's eyes lit up when he heard it, and after thinking about it, he nodded and agreed.

With this breakthrough, the subsequent negotiations went smoothly, and soon the treaty known as the "Blanket Agreement" was signed, and then it was rushed to the capital in eight hundred miles.

　Are there neighbors to the west?
