Emperor Ming Dynasty

Chapter 527 Economic and Trade Benefits
"Well, Your Majesty, let's not mention the matter of lamas and monks for the time being, those teachers, before the peace of Monan, even if they are coerced and lured, it is difficult to go!"

Zhao Shu watched the monarch and his ministers quarreling like a child's play, and was helpless for a while.

"Mr. Teacher is not in a hurry, but if there is a temple, there must be a school. Is there anything bigger in the world than preaching enlightenment?"

Zhang Shenyan rarely showed his temper, and was very stubborn.

The issue of orthodoxy must never be compromised. How could those monks be allowed to educate the barbarians.

"All right!"

The emperor waved his hand, some side issues, don't mention them.

Whether it is a temple or a school, in the end it is the taming of the grassland, and mental paralysis is the lowest cost.

If the Mongols are really playing with words, then it's okay, this represents the stability of the country's rule.

"Your Majesty, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Mongolian Tatars have always loved tea, wine, ironware, etc. They claim that they can live without meat for three days and tea for a day."

After all, Yan Chongxin has been in charge of the Ministry of Household Affairs for many years. He has more experience and knows a lot about economic means:

"As long as a market is established in Guihua City, things that were longed for in the past and could only be exchanged after repeated military campaigns are within easy reach today. As long as they sell tea, wine and other things, there is no need to worry about the Mongols not yielding."

"This is advisable."

Zhu Yixi's eyes lit up.

During the Jiajing period, the rebellion between Altan Khan and the Japanese pirates was actually caused by the imperial court itself. One was to cut off the market trade, and the other was to completely ban the sea, which led to continuous wars.

From the 13th year of Jiajing to the 29th year of Jiajing, Altan Khan sent envoys to the Ming court to ask for tribute dozens of times, but they were all rejected.

And the reason for refusing to trade is very strange, that is, Qingliu think that if you talk about trade, trade is trade. Isn't it embarrassing for me, Ming?

The same is true of Japanese pirates, most of whom are private maritime merchants pretending to be Japanese pirates, just to force the imperial court to switch.

As a result, when Ming Muzong opened Yuegang, the Japanese pirates were completely gone.

However, the Manchu Qing's economic methods towards the Mongols were much more cruel. They implemented a ban system to prevent most of the Han merchants from entering Mongolia, and only allowed a small number of them to go there. They cruelly exploited ordinary herdsmen and made the grassland economy dilapidated.

But this kind of destructive economic strategy, Zhu Yixi does not take it.

Because this will lead to the weak strength of the grassland and weaken its assistance to Ming Dynasty.

As long as the grassland and the inland economy are bound together, their relationship will naturally become deeper and deeper, and they will work together in the face of Tsarist Russia.

"However, blind dumping will not last long."

The emperor said: "Cows and sheep, furs, war horses and other things in the grassland are also scarce in the interior. They come and go, so they can last for a long time."

"The discussion field must be fair, and this matter should be left to the household department!"

"Yes!"

Zhao Shu nodded slightly.

"In addition, the guards are like the mainland. Fortresses must be built. Hundreds of households will build piers, and thousands of households will build forts. The Ministry of Households will also provide a lot of help for all craftsmen's supplies."

The emperor said with emotion: "As long as the Mongols settle down, they will not be able to escape from our grasp."

The dotted settlements, coupled with the limited range of grazing, the quadruple control of economy, culture, ideology and military.

As long as the established policies are followed, Zhu Yixi feels that the Mongols will absolutely obey.

Speaking of the Mongols, the emperor suddenly asked, "How is the Chahar tribe?"

"A report from Beijing said that Abu Nai agreed to the exchange of equipment, and now he is gearing up, preparing to gather his generals and formally sever the relationship with Jiannu."

Zhao Shu cupped his hands and said solemnly: "In addition, he also said that the establishment of slavery is very powerful, and the imperial court needs to send troops to support it."

"It's a beautiful idea."

Zhu Yixi said coldly, he understood that it was Abu Nai who had nothing to fear.

The Chahar tribe is now grazing in the Zhangjiakou area north of Xuanfu, and has been cut off many times, and now it has less than ten thousand tents.

In other words, he can at most mobilize thousands of soldiers and horses, and he can be the king in Monan, but if he meets the Manchus, he will have to stop.

If Daming doesn't support him, he will definitely not be able to resist.

On the contrary, once Chahar is completely tamed by the Qing Dynasty, it will be very difficult for the Xuan Mansion to live in peace. It is not a good thing to spread the flames of war everywhere at the border.

After all, Chahar is different from naturalization. It is only a thousand miles away from the Liaodong area, and its geographical location is extremely important. The Manchu Qing will definitely not remain indifferent.

"Your Majesty, if Chahar hadn't blocked the news, the news of Guihua City would have spread to Liaodong long ago. Abu Nai still has some credit for it."

"I see."

Zhu Yixi restrained his temper, and said: "Let the soldiers and horses of the Xuanfu be ready. If Abu Nai is defeated by the Qing Dynasty during this period, only his family and nobles are allowed to enter, and his army must not be allowed to enter the Xuanfu."

"In addition, appease Abu Nai and tell him not to activate it before the time comes, or you will bear the consequences."

After issuing the military order, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief.

After the capital was moved to Beijing, the environment faced was more complicated, and the Mongols could not get over it.

At this time in Shengjing, Liaodong, Dorgon was still integrating the army.

In order to replenish the troops, Dorgon advocated expelling the Nuzhen and Sauron people, so the Eight Banners were dispatched frequently, which once again shaped the prestige of the Qing Dynasty.

Constrained by the reduction in combat power, for the Eight Banners, this is still a big training session.

The complicated situation was relieved by taking the initiative to attack, the internal conflicts were once again subdued, and the nobles of the Eight Banners united again to focus on the outside world.

Although since the Shanxi Merchants were cut off, the news has become more and more closed, but the Manchu Qing Dynasty is somewhat clear about the Ming court's plan to move the capital to Beijing.

Hauge said bluntly as always: "Ming people want to catch us all, so they moved the capital to Beijing."

These words caused everyone to nod their heads one after another, and they all waited angrily.

A strong sense of crisis forced everyone to unite again. After retreating outside the customs, both morale and supplies, the Manchu Qing fell to the bottom.

Although it has recovered during this period, the threat of national subjugation and genocide is always around, so that Dorgon's power has not decreased but increased.

Dorgon said bluntly: "The attack in the past few months has supplemented the strength of ten thousand people. These barbarians have no strength, but they don't know the military law. They need some time to adjust."

"However, although the Ming army moved the capital, it does not pose a great threat to us. The Liaoxi Corridor is in our hands, so the Ming army dare not act presumptuously..."

After another daily boost of morale, Dorgon came outside the city, where the cannons were cast.

Tang Ruowang, who is wearing an official robe, is supervising the manufacture of a new type of artillery, but the imitation of the carrying gun has entered the stage of mass production.

"Regent, there is no shortage of ironware in our Qing warehouse, but these firecrackers are made, and there is not so much gunpowder to use."

Tang Ruowang said to the regent of the Qing Dynasty with a bitter face.

"Sulphur is scarce, and the entire army has it. It's a pity that Liaodong has everything, but there is no sulfur!"

Dorgon said angrily.
