The Han culture is spreading strongly in Southeast Asia

Chapter 529: Grassland Horses and Han Buddhists

After the military parade, which was not grand but very targeted, Mo Zibu came to the Sun Lake in Mulan Paddock and lived in a Mongolian yurt with a strong frontier style.

Since the relationship between the two sides had not yet reached a point of special trust, Mo Zibu did not hold the traditional Mulan Hunting Ground hunting activities.

If a hunt was arranged at this time, not only would Mo Zibu be worried about being shot by arrows from the Mongols, the Mongols would be even more worried that they would be shot by the emperor's cavalry guards during the hunt.

When the relationship between the two parties is not yet close, it is better to use more direct means to win them over.

At the same time, the Yellow Sect's prayer activities will not be held until they return to the Chengde Mountain Resort, so Mo Zibu was simply entertaining these Mongolian leaders at the Sun Lake.

Specifically, we had a meal with very Mongolian characteristics, including roasted whole cow, roasted lamb leg, hand-pulled lamb chops, salty milk tea, pies, grassland dried mushroom soup, etc.

Of course, it is also necessary to appreciate Mongolian songs and dances, watching a group of short but very strong Mongolian girls, eight out of ten of whom have big faces, shaking their strong waists and big buttocks.

You know what, it really has a unique flavor.

It seems that just by looking at the swaying figures of these Mongolian women in front of you, you can imagine yourself as a savage, cruel, and brutal grassland wolf lord who controls hundreds of thousands of horses and wants to enslave the world.

Mo Zibu also felt that this stereotype did have some truth to it. Although the daughters of the herdsmen below were not well fed and were often very thin, most of the sisters and daughters raised by these princes were indeed the stereotypical Mongolian women.

Strong, eager, bold, and with a round face, his admiration for the strong is clearly expressed on his face.

This made Mo Zibu a little worried about the granddaughter of Dürburt Khan that Queen Zheng Shishi would adopt for him. Wouldn't she have the same style?
Seeing that the emperor was a little dazed, Chechen Khan Qiwangdorji felt a little embarrassed. Well, not only they were embarrassed, but others, mainly the Khans of Mobei, were also a little embarrassed.

The Khan of Mobei, whose title easily aroused people's imagination, whispered to Mo Zibu:
"Your Majesty, the daughters of the grasslands are not as beautiful as those of the Han people. They are exposed to the wind and sun and it is difficult to even find a fairer one. Their singing and dancing are also quite difficult to be outstanding."

At this time, in the northern Mongolia, from east to west, there were Chechen Khan, Tushetu Khan, Sanin Noyan Khan, Zasaktu Khan, as well as Kobdo and Tannu Uriankhai regions.

The Chechen Khan's territory was close to Manzhouli, and the nomadic center was in Wulankhan and Choibalsan areas of Outer Mongolia.

Tushetu Khan mainly controlled Kulun, the center of Outer Mongolia, which was later known as Ulaanbaatar.

The nomadic center of Sanin Noyan Khan was near Uliastai, located in the central part of later Outer Mongolia.

Zasaktu Khan's territory was the most barren and had the smallest population, probably only tens of thousands of people, squeezed in a long strip between Sanin Noyan and Kobdo.

The Kobdo region is located in Outer Mongolia near Xinjiang, covering the entire Altai Mountains, with Kobdo as its center. The Altay region of the later Republic also belongs to Kobdo.

Tannu Uriankhai is the entire northern part of Outer Mongolia, but does not include Lake Baikal, because at this time, after the fall of the Siberian Khanate, the Mongols lost control of Lake Baikal.

There may not be many people in places like the northern desert and Mongolia, and they don’t have much economic value for the time being.

Because Outer Mongolia's most important mineral resources cannot be fully utilized by current productivity, and it is also impossible to transport them to the mainland.

But the strategic significance of Outer Mongolia is too great.

With Outer Mongolia, Dayu's troops could easily threaten the Xianbei wilderness controlled by the Russians.

If he wanted to, he could cut off the main traffic artery heading east at any time, and make everything they worked hard to build north of Heilongjiang, including the entire Eastern Xianbei Mountains, become a wedding dress for Dayu.

The North Sea (Lake Baikal) where Su Wu grazed sheep is a treasure land that must be recovered. Mo Zibu can imagine that if the North Sea can be left to future generations, it will be such a beautiful tourist destination that it is probably incomparable to the Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake in Dali.

At the same time, by passing through Outer Mongolia, the Han cavalry of Dayu could easily cross the Irtysh River, approach the Ural River and even the Volga River under the guidance and protection of the Mongolian light cavalry, and could also oppress the entire Central Asia from north to south.

Thinking of this, Mo Zibu touched his kidneys, took a deep breath, and a look of satisfaction and even appreciation naturally appeared on his face.

"Han women have their own gentleness, and northern Saibei women have their own boldness.

Moreover, not all people in the Han area are gentle and beautiful. There are many women who are as brave as men. Even in the south of the Yangtze River, Hakka women with big feet are no less handsome than men.

And the people of Saibei are not all bold and unruly. I heard that the granddaughter of Dürburt Khan was extremely gentle and beautiful, and even the queen said she felt pity for her.

After hearing this, a group of Mongolian princes and nobles realized that Dörburt Khan had already walked ahead of them. No wonder he kept comparing the Mongolians from all over the desert to dogs during the military parade in the morning.

"The Great Emperor, please don't marry Xina. She's no different from any of you Han women. Does the Great Emperor need a woman like her?"

Mo Zibu was talking with a smile, and a young girl who had just finished dancing in the middle of the banquet was dissatisfied.

Mo Zibu looked up, and wow, it was as if he saw a ball of fire wherever he looked.

Not only was the girl wearing a bright red Khalkha Mongolian long skirt, but her hair was also tied into a bun that looked like a somewhat fierce buffalo horn.

Also because of this temperament, people have a glowing and hot feeling like a burning flame.

The little girl didn't look very old, but her skin was a little rough, and there were two very obvious highland red spots on her cheeks. She was not tall either.

In fact, Mongolians are not tall. It is not normal to see those big Mongolian men in later generations, because nomadic peoples pay great attention to being short and strong.

This way, you will have the strength to pull a strong bow, reduce the burden on the warhorse, reduce the area that is hit, and make it convenient to hide behind the warhorse when riding and shooting, thereby increasing your survival rate.

This has a bit of the meaning of modern warfare. It is said that in Russia and Ukraine, the most popular and highest survival rate are the strong and small guys around 1 meters tall.

"Oh, then tell me, what kind of woman should I, the emperor, marry?" Mo Zibu asked with a smile. Those who could dance here were naturally the daughters or sisters of the princes and nobles of Mongolia.

As for her appearance, although she is not a great beauty, she is not ugly either. She is average looking. She is not tall, but you can still see her curvy figure, like a rouge-colored horse on the grassland with an alluring wildness.

That’s fine, Mo Zibu was quite satisfied. This was much better than collecting a bunch of strong Mongolian women.

Even the Qing emperors generally chose women from the Khorchin people, who looked similar to the Han Chinese, and rarely accepted women from the northern desert. "Of course they'd choose someone like me!" the young woman said proudly, quickly removing her outer skirt, revealing her impressive figure and a relatively slender, powerful-looking waist.

Wow, it’s a small electric motor. It should be able to do a hundred squats in one breath without taking a breath!

"The great emperor should marry a beauty from the northern frontier like me. Wu Yunga can tame the fiercest wild horses and shoot five arrows in a row on horseback. No man in the tribe can match me.

I can kill twenty sheep in an hour by myself. Not only will there be no holes in the sheepskin, but there will also be no meat on it. Everyone who sees it will say it's good.

The clay pot mutton I stew and the milk tea I make are the best in all of Kulun! The lambs I raise are the fattest and most delicious in all of Kulun!

Wow! If this isn't bragging, this Wu Yunga really has the capital. In the hard-working Mobei, a woman like this is definitely every man's dream girl.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I failed to discipline my daughter properly, and my daughter has misbehaved before you!"

Tushetu Khan Chedendorji was terrified. He knelt down with a pale face and sweat all over his forehead. While kneeling, he pulled his daughter Wuyunga and made her kneel down as well.

At the same time, more than 20 other Mongolian princes and nobles also knelt down.

"Are you the daughter of Tushetu Khan?" Mozibu did not let these princes stand up. The great emperor should have the temperament of a great emperor. The wolf king would not always treat the wolves below him well.

As he spoke, Mo Zibu walked over, pinched Wu Yunga's chin, and lifted her face to look at him. At the same time, Mo Zibu glanced at Tushetu Khan out of the corner of his eye.

This guy is definitely not as rough as he looks. He didn't come out to apologize early or late, but waited until Wuyun Ga had said and shown everything he should say, and then he came out to apologize. He chose the timing very well.

Mo Zibu even speculated that the general process had been designed and rehearsed by the father and daughter.

But it doesn't matter. This is just a political game in bed. At least this Wu Yunga seems to be able to do it.

In addition, through her jealous words, Mozibu at least knew that Xina, the granddaughter of Kobdo Durbert Khan, must be good-looking.

"Get up, Saibei Rouge. I like you very much too. Today, I'll let you pour me some wine and serve me some food."

When the Mongols heard what Mo Zibu said, they cheered loudly, and the princes of various tribes pushed their sisters and daughters to Mo Zibu.

Wu Yunga took the lead and sat next to Mo Zibu very assertively, leaving the other girls behind him. It was a lively scene for a while.

. . . .

Chengde, Puning Temple.

This is a temple that combines Han and Tibetan styles. The front half is in Han Buddhist style, and the back half is in Tibetan Buddhist style.

The history of Puning Temple is not long. It was mainly used during the Qianlong period to suppress the dying Junggar forces. Therefore, Qianlong often held banquets here to entertain Mongolian princes and nobles from Kobdo and the entire northern desert.

However, Mo Zibu did not hold a banquet here. Instead, he brought a group of Mongolian princes, court officials and generals, as well as Tibetan Buddhist religious figures, to discuss here - killing!
It's about killing people. As a religion, using knives is their original form.

Zheng Xin had just rushed back from Dunhuang. The main reason he was called this time was to promote him to the rank of Venerable Buddha. From now on, he would no longer be Master Cihang Pudu Guangji, but Cihang Pudu Guangji Buddha.

And he is not an ordinary Buddha, but a great Buddha who governs the Tibetan Buddhist believers in Qinghai and the White Lotus Sect in Gansu. He is one of the five great Buddhas like Zhangjia and Jebtsundamba.

By the way, power is really a stimulant for men. Zheng Xin was originally heartbroken and looked decadent and confused.

But when he really let go of his supernatural nature and became a Buddha, a man in his fifties could travel from Dunhuang to Beijing and back within three months without looking tired and was full of energy.

In the Tibetan Buddhist hall of Puning Temple, the Third Jamyang Khyentse personally performed the Vajra Initiation Ceremony for Taksin, which is the second step in becoming a great Buddha and one of the most important steps.

As for the most important first step, it is naturally the emperor's decree to confer the title, and the central court, through the cabinet, the Ministry of Rites, the Buddhist Officials Department, and the Buddhist and Taoist Discipline Department, uses seals to confirm.

When the initiation was completed, more than 20 Mongolian princes and nobles who had come knelt down together to chant scriptures. Zheng Xin sat on a lotus platform, below the left side of the emperor's throne, preached the meaning of the scriptures, and blessed the princes and nobles of Inner and Outer Mongolia. The ceremony was then completed.

Thus, the first one who was entirely of Han ethnicity and would be reincarnated among Han believers in the future, and whose honorific title did not use Sanskrit or Mongolian, was born.

After the ceremony, Mozibu had the religious arrangements simply removed, and then hung out a huge map that included the Transoxiana region (Central Asia) and part of the Volga and Ural rivers.

Mo Zibu looked seriously at the Mongolian princes and nobles below. Although some of them who had been associated with Fukangan or even defected to the Russian Empire had not come, they were just scraps and not a cause for concern. The vast majority of the Mongolian princes and nobles from both north and south of the desert were here.

"The Han and Mongolian peoples have been fighting each other for hundreds of years, but they have also been ruled by the Bannermen for over a hundred years. Today, the Muslims in the west are at their peak, while the Buddha's worship is fading.

Not to mention the Rakshasa Kingdom, which believes in the Qin Law and Jesus Christ, is eyeing them covetously. Even the nomadic tribes around Lake Baikal have been conquered. Lake Baikal has long been lost, and the city of Irkutsk has been occupied.

To this day, the laws of the Qin Dynasty and the Arabs are rapidly advancing westward, posing a threat not only to the Mongolian tribes but also to our central government.

Although there are conflicts between the Han and Mongolian peoples, they also have many things in common. As long as they are willing, they can still be one family.

Therefore, I am willing to put aside my prejudices and treat you well, but you must also know that God’s grace is great.

Those who are loyal to the Central Committee can continue to sing and dance, but those who are not loyal to the Central Committee, I will have their entire clan annihilated!"

After hearing this, a group of Mongolian princes and nobles quickly knelt down and said, "We are loyal to the central government and are willing to obey the orders of the great emperor and serve as his lackeys!"

Mo Zibu nodded with a slightly relieved expression, but he was sighing in his heart that this was really a good era. Throughout the dynasties, there had never been a time when it was so easy to deal with the grassland forces.

Not only because of the Qing Dynasty's submissiveness, but also because of the Muslims in Transoxiana and the Western Regions, as well as the even more powerful Russian Empire, which blocked all their options.

This forced the Mongols to choose to rely on the central government, no matter who established this central government.
