Reborn Ming Dynasty as Emperor

Chapter 487 Mandatory Indoctrination of Siberia

While the indemnity totaling about [-] million silver dollars stimulated the rapid development of Ming's entire economy, how to better develop and utilize the two vast territories of the new West Siberia and the previously occupied East Siberia was also on the agenda.

Zhu Youxiao didn't dare to make a random decision. This was the first time for Da Ming, or for the whole of China, to directly obtain the cession of a large area of ​​​​territory through a treaty. He was not a war gain. It is obtained by eradicating or annihilating all the military forces in Li, and it is not because of voluntary submission.

Therefore, Da Ming did not have such a strong desire to permanently occupy this kind of territory, and there seemed to be a general sense of just grabbing it.

No one thought about how to have the consciousness of this land for a long time.

Some reform officials have long been eager to suggest that Zhu Youxiao immediately aim to mine all the coal and iron in Siberia back to Daming in the shortest possible time, so as to avoid the failure of controlling Siberia due to the decline of Ming in the future, making Siberia independent and finally After being controlled by the Raksha Kingdom, Daming did not gain any wealth during the time it occupied Siberia.

At this time, the Ming officials and even the entire ruling class did not regard Siberia as their own territory. They all had a bandit mentality, that is, if they occupied this place, they should grab all the wealth of this place. They even did it. Be prepared to lose Siberia in the future.

Even some conservative officials directly advised Zhu Youxiao to give up the barbaric land of Siberia and let the barbarian people in this area fend for themselves. External expansion and so on.

The reformists naturally sneered at the old-fashioned view, and even ridiculed these conservative officials for being more active than anyone else in competing for the 7000 million taels of silver indemnity cake, wishing to give Confucius a golden body like a Buddha statue.

But now when seeing Siberia, a barren land that can only develop industry but not agriculture, it is short-sighted and directly asks His Majesty to give up.

However, Zhu Youxiao did not punish these conservative officials because of this. After all, most of these officials are traditional squires. Although forced by the imperial power and had to accept the policy of paying food for officials and gentry, they still live on the development model of small-scale peasant economy. Yes, so what they pursue is still stability and order first, rather than expansion and aggressiveness.

However, in the court discussion on how to develop and utilize Siberia, Zhu Youxiao still clearly expressed his principled views.

At this court meeting, Zhu Youxiao specially ordered someone to hang the detailed map of Asia drawn by the Ministry of War, Jin Yiwei, and the Royal Academy of Sciences a few days ago on the main hall of the Qianqing Palace, above his own dandelion, In this way, there are still many officials who have only read the Four Books and Five Classics and have only traveled along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. The most intuitive experience.

"This is Siberia! The entire territory is almost equivalent to the entire territory of my Ming Dynasty, and now we have obtained this large territory from the Raksha Kingdom. Some of you say that you just give it up and let it fend for itself. You can guarantee that, When it fends for itself, won't this place be unified by some heroic figure, and then become a big hidden danger for my Ming Dynasty?
Some people say that they should hurry up and plunder the coal and iron in the land, and even cut down the trees here, dig up the ginseng here, and kill the rare and exotic animals here. Let me ask you, I will give you 10 horses, and then Give you ten years, can you mine, cut, dig, kill? "

After Zhu Youxiao raised his arms in this way, all the Ming officials present began to whisper, and some officials even widened their eyes, because they never thought that Siberia was such a vast land, and many of them It's just naive to think that Siberia is just a tiny place outside Mobei.

However, these officials did not expect that the Raksha State would directly give such a large piece of territory to Daming, and some officials thought about how terrible the Raksha State was when it did not lose these territories, but Daming defeated it. And after obtaining such a large territory from him, many of them realized what kind of enemy Daming had defeated.

Of course, only Zhu Youxiao and some officials of the reformist faction know that although Luocha Kingdom is big, it is not at the same level as Daming's population and social wealth.

Since it is such a large territory, as an official of the Ming Dynasty, he naturally cannot let the court give it up easily. After all, once he gives up, he will not be able to explain it to history and future generations.

As a result, some people began to suggest how to digest this vast territory. Some ministers proposed to imitate the former Yuan Dynasty to establish four khanates, and select royal princes to go to these places and directly manage these places.

And some ministers suggested to use the enfeoffment system directly, not only entrusting the royal family, princes, county kings to manage these places, some meritorious officials and even princesses and monarchs can get the fiefdoms of these places, making the whole of Siberia become composed of countless clans and princes. A small country composed of relatives, so that there will be no country that can threaten the Ming Dynasty.

Many reform officials wanted to use this to strengthen their private property, and suggested that Zhu Youxiao lease or sell this Siberia directly, or let various businessmen contract a certain place, and just pay a certain tax for the court.

Of course, there are also officials who pay more attention to the state-led Ming economy and believe that Siberia should continue to be developed by state capital, that is, Huangzhuang develops farming, the Royal Industry Company is responsible for mining, and the Royal Weaving Bureau is responsible for purchasing animal fur.

But what Zhu Youxiao always thought about was not how to develop Siberia, but how to establish the political nature of Siberia, as the conservatives said, that is, whether his relationship with Daming is a piece of land currently occupied by Daming, or it belongs to Daming. an administrative area.

In other words, now, as the emperor, should he entrust Siberia to the kings, princes and relatives, or directly establish the Chengxuan Department of Political Envoys, and set up administrative divisions such as prefectures, states, and counties to imitate Monan and Mobei? Implement the policy of land reform and return to local people.

But in Zhu Youxiao's view, Siberia is different from Mobei and Monan. Although Mobei and Monan are places where Tartars are concentrated, the degree of Sinicization or the influence of Han culture naturally depends on the proximity of the customs. Higher than that of the original inhabitants of Siberia.

And because Monan, Mobei and other places are the result of occupation through war, a large number of reactionary forces that may be successful have been eliminated during the war, so that there are very few rebellions encountered in the process of reforming the land.

It is also because Monan and Mobei were influenced by Han culture and weakened the power of the reactionaries during the war, so the reform and return of Monan and Mobei went smoothly.

However, as far as Siberia is concerned, although Ming Dynasty dispatched two advance teams, there was no major military conflict with the Raksha State in Siberia. Qi Chang State directly marched towards Moscow Castle, and Jiao Lian also continued to advance westward. .

Therefore, the local armed forces in Siberia that are opposed to being colonized by Ming may become a force that should not be underestimated. In addition, because Da Ming has almost focused on the southern pirates and the establishment of slaves and Tartars outside the customs these years, the entire Ming has no impact on Siberia.

As a result, many local residents in Siberia have begun to be nearly Westernized and completely Westernized. Religious beliefs have taken up a large proportion of the ideology of these primitive residents, which is completely contrary to the Han culture that respects ancestors above all gods.

Therefore, in Zhu Youxiao's view, if you take it for granted that Siberia is the same as Monan, Mobei and other places, and start building factories and workshops directly to develop the economy, I am afraid that you will find a large proportion of Siberian Yi people. degree of resistance.

Therefore, if you want to occupy Siberia for a long time, you must completely eradicate any influence of Western culture in Siberia, and let everyone realize that the only way is to match the Great Ming.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao finally decided not to send anyone to develop Siberia, nor to entrust this vast Siberia region to kings and relatives, but to mobilize a large number of imperial guards and frontier troops into Siberia first.

Since Siberia has been ceded to Ming by the Raksha Kingdom, Da Ming will naturally complete its absolute military occupation of it, and at present, the Raksha Kingdom will not dare to obstruct it if Da Ming sends troops to Siberia.

Letting a large number of Ming troops station in Siberia is not only to achieve a complete occupation of Siberia, but also to prepare for the better transformation of Siberia to the Ming Dynasty in the future.

Zhu Youxiao decided to take coercive measures for these overly religious believers, so he directly made Yang Sichang, an eagle-dog in the army, the first governor of the Ming Dynasty in Siberia, and immediately started the policy of compulsory cultural assimilation of Siberia implement.

Yang Sichang directly issued an order, ordering the troops from all over the country to immediately smash down all the buildings related to the cross symbol. Even if someone prevented the army from smashing the cross symbol, he himself would be directly beheaded.

Not only religious architectural symbols such as the cross have been destroyed and eliminated in large numbers, but also other Western religious belief symbols have also been destroyed in large numbers. Even if some people have these symbols on their bodies, they will not be compelled to clear them immediately, otherwise will be directly killed.

And Yang Sichang also directly ordered everyone in Siberia to speak Chinese, learn Chinese, and not to use other languages ​​and cultural elements, or they will be punished as traitors.

Naturally, forcibly erasing a culture is not easy for a region, especially a vast region like Siberia, and it will inevitably meet with strong resistance, but in order to make Siberia a place of Sinicization as soon as possible , you have to be more ruthless in the early stage.

I don’t know that the original residents of Siberia were directly wiped out because they refused or resisted Sinicization, and I don’t know how many original residents of Siberia began to learn from the people of Ming Dynasty to wear Taoist robes, recite poems and songs, and know the Book of Changes and gossip.

Zhu Youxiao will not worry that the forced indoctrination of Siberian culture will lead to a sharp decrease in the number of aborigines, and will even make Siberia in Nuoda more deserted. He would rather cut off a large number of non-Siberian aliens in the early stage, and even To turn Siberia into a no-man's land, he also needs to make Siberia truly belong to Ming Dynasty in terms of cultural ideology before developing Siberia.

Therefore, in the three years from the 17th year of the apocalypse to the 20th year of the apocalypse, the development speed of the Siberia region has not been rapidly improved, but the number of troops stationed in it has increased day by day, and it is not uncommon for rebellions or group massacres to occur in various regions of Siberia.

I don't know how much blood has been shed, the entire Siberia region has become a geographical area that has been extinct from Western culture. Here, there is no cross or even any Western religious figures who reveal their bodies.

……

As for this, the Raksha Kingdom naturally had no time to take care of it. When Zhu Youxiao forced Siberia to Siberia, most of the reactionaries were almost from the Raksha Kingdom, because they were more inclined to the culture of the Raksha Kingdom. .

But the current Raksha Kingdom can't control them, they can only do nothing to help them, they no longer have the guts to maintain their sovereignty, and they are even unable to propose any intervention strategy in Siberia's affairs.

Moreover, the current Raksha State, that is, the Romanov Dynasty established by Mikhail I, is still troubled by the establishment of Ming’s concession in the capital Moscow, which also makes people in the Raksha State worry that once that distant Will the officials of the Eastern Empire take advantage of this to further control the internal affairs of the Moscow Castle and even the Raksha Kingdom?

Some far-sighted Raksha State officials are already worried that once Ming establishes a concession in Moscow, they will be able to easily interfere in Ming's internal affairs and even manipulate Ming's economy.

But I am worried. According to the treaty, the Raksha Kingdom still had to divide a part of the area in Moscow as the concession area of ​​the Ming Empire in Moscow, the capital of the Raksha Kingdom, and signed a subsidiary treaty other than the treaty. In 100, the subsidiary treaty still did not mention whether Da Ming could interfere in the internal affairs of the Raksha Kingdom.

In other words, the Romanov dynasty in the Raksha Kingdom is very likely to truly become the puppet regime of the Ming Dynasty.

And when the officials designated by the Ming Ministry of Foreign Affairs and a certain number of troops with a certain level of equipment were stationed in the Moscow Concession Area, it caused a lot of sensation in the Raksha Kingdom, because it was rare for the Romano Dynasty to see such a situation. Many yellow races are stationed in this Moscow castle.

But what the entire Romanov dynasty did not expect was that the first thing the officials of the Ming Ministry of Foreign Affairs and troops affiliated to the Ministry of War came to Moscow in the concession area was to set up barriers between the concession area and the outside world to prevent the Romanov The Raksha people entered the concession area at will, and even directly hung up the sign "Foreigners and dogs are not allowed!" It caused an uproar in the public opinion for a while, because in the eyes of many Raksha people, they are the only ones who look down on others, but they don't think that Nuo Da Even the Raksha people would be discriminated against by Daming one day.
