It can be said that what Sun Chuanting had dealt with was something that even men on the grassland could not refuse. The material on the grassland was barren, and survival was the most important thing, and food was the key to survival. They were even short of food than the mainland of Ming Dynasty.

After having food, you must have other things, such as salt to decorate them.

Therefore, people from all departments are willing to cooperate with the Chinese army.

What's even worse is that the prices of food and salt of the Chinese army were 20% or 30% lower than those of the Ming Dynasty.

In fact, the border officials of the Ming Dynasty have always smuggled grain and various daily necessities to Mongolia and Jiannu outside the pass. These things were sold at average prices in the Ming Dynasty. When they arrived in Mongolia, they could make a lot of money. The merchants in Shanxi became so rich, and the officers in the border made money by doing this.

What made these tribes most happy and surrendered was that they would sell whatever price they sold in the mainland of Ming Dynasty. This was equivalent to more than twice the price, which was far lower than the market price outside the pass, and it completely won the hearts of several major tribes.

Lin Danhan of Chahar almost immediately relied on the Chinese army, and the five Neikhal tribes, which had always been advancing and retreating with the Chahar tribe, also began to trade with the Chinese army. There was no way. The Chinese army's things were too cheap and too good, and they could not refuse these things from the side.

Not to mention that the two movies cannot be refused, even the Korqin tribe, which has always been with Jiannu and secretly communicated with the songs, drove their cattle, sheep and horses to trade with the Chinese army.

The same sentence is that the food, cloth, and tea provided by the Chinese Army were too cheap, so cheap that they thought it was free to pick it up. So the Korqin Army knew that this was contrary to the alliance between them and Jiannu and the friendship tradition between them, but they still had to drive their cattle and sheep to cooperate with the Chinese Army.

At the borders and courts of the Ming Dynasty, you can only exchange for a horse of fifteen kilograms of salt at most, and the Chinese army will give you twenty-five kilograms directly. How can they refuse such a price?

The only drawback is that Mongolia is extremely poor and does not produce anything that the Chinese army urgently needs. The Chinese army is only interested in their war horses and their strong men, and no one is interested in others.

These Mongolian princes and dignitaries used good war horses or took the prisoners of war they captured to trade with the Chinese army.

Of course, they also found that the Chinese army was also interested in another thing, which was Jiannu. A real Jiannu, who was worth 45 taels of silver, almost equivalent to two horses and dozens of kilograms of salt. Therefore, hunting the Jianzhou people became their main means of making money.

For a moment, a storm of hunting Jianzhou people emerged on the southern part of the desert. This was to kill a Jianzhou person, which earned more than killing a tiger. So many soldiers from Mongolian tribes went out to hunt, but in fact they attacked the villages of Jianzhou people, plundered their soldiers, killed their soldiers, and plundered their property.

Such a policy was formulated by Sun Chuanting and Zhou Wentong.

Sun Chuanting was just a first-time visit to Liaonan and got what he had always dreamed of fighting with Jiannu, which made him very happy. Although he could no longer be a minister of the Ming Dynasty, he was able to fight Jiannu and fulfilled his long-cherished wish.

Even his father, Sun Taigong, said clearly: "Since you are fighting the Tartars, you can fight wherever you are not fighting, so you can fight with confidence."

So Sun Chuanting was at ease to work here. At first, he looked down on Zhou Wentong. First, Zhou Wentong was a prison student, and second, this person had a bad reputation. The reputation of corrupt officials had been heard throughout the three East Prefectures, but after the two sides cooperated, he realized that Zhou Wentong was very capable of doing things and was very happy. The two of them cooperated well, and they were very happy.

For example, they colluded with the Mongolians to deal with Jianzhou, which made the strategic and visionary Sun Chuanting very much appreciated. They paid for the money, but they eliminated a large number of Mongolians and caused them to be isolated like never before.

Such policies are far superior to the Ming Dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty spent a lot of money on Jiannu. Their famous Ningjin defense line alone had already spent tens of millions of taels of silver. These silver either became cities or fell into the private pockets of officers. Anyway, the Ming Dynasty's finances were so difficult and it was so miserable because of Liao Xiang. This has become a bloody hole in the Ming Dynasty. It keeps bleeding out and filling it in, but has not achieved any good results.

The Chinese army also spent money here, but they spent a lot of money. Sun Chuanting found that the Chinese army was really rich, and they could get as much as they wanted. With so much money and grain, what would happen? Sun Chuanting even thought that the father and son of the Liu family should not rebel. They all had so much money and lived a better life than the emperor, so why would they rebel? Isn’t this causing trouble and trouble to himself?

But they were also spending money here, and the money was spent to the point. Although they did not build a castle here on a large scale and build a Ningjin defense line that was known as the invincible one in the world, their spending methods made Jiannu miserable, and many people even cried. It is said that Huang Taiji, Dorgon and others were angry at the strategy of Sun Chuanting and others.

Huang Taiji is a strategic expert. It took him nearly ten years to settle the Mongolians in the Northeast. In order to deal with these Mongolians, they sent troops to suppress or engage in marriage and win over them.

For example, Lin Danhan, the Mongolian Communist Party leader, was the target of their focus on attacks, while the Korqin tribe near Jianzhou was the target of their full efforts. In order to win over and marry each other, they were married to several major tribes in Korqin.

Even Huang Taiji married the beautiful Korqin girl as a princess, and married a large number of daughters of the banner masters or nobles of Jianzhou to the chiefs of the Korqin tribes. The two sides were connected with each other, and you and I had you, prosper and gained together, and the five tribes of Neikhalka who were loyal to Lin Danhan were always attracted by them, and under their sugar-coated shells, they were almost always attracted by them. It can be said that the major forces in the entire Northeast have basically surrendered to Jianzhou and moved closer to them.

However, the situation that they had taken more than ten years to form was destroyed by the two big traitors, Sun Chuanting and Zhou Wentong, in just a short period of time.

Now all ethnic groups in the Northeast are hostile and isolated from the Jianzhou people, and they all want to attack them. They are currently shocked by the powerful military force of Jianzhou and dare not oppose the Jianzhou army openly and openly. However, in secret, as long as the Jianzhou people dare to be alone or in a corner without a man, they will dare to cut off your head and take it to receive rewards.

Now the Chinese Army has created a situation where Jiannu’s head is not a head, but a forty taels of silver. For the sake of the forty taels of silver, many people’s eyes were red and they took risks.

In the eyes of these fierce Mongolian men, they either starve to death in the snow or cut off Jiannu's head to receive the reward. What do you think I'll choose?

As for Huang Taiji, he expected that the establishment of the Eight Banners of Mongolia was responsive to the Korqin tribe, but since the Battle of southern Liaoning, everyone's interest has been low and they have lived a good life in the past. Why do you need to build the Eight Banners of Mongolia?

Especially when the Chinese army introduced various policies to hunt Jianzhou, their interest became even higher and they were afraid that they would be related to them?

Huang Taiji's policy of marriage was very successful, at least in the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty believed that the deep marriage between Jiannu and the Korqin tribe was that both parties were kinship and enemies, and they had to kill Jianzhou and deal with Korqin. This was called destroying the nine clans.

But the Chinese Army is open to the public. Jianzhou is Jianzhou and Korqin is Korqin. Although both sides have relatives, the Duke will return to the Duke and the relatives. Anyway, the Chinese Army does not want the Korqin Mongols. No matter who takes the Korqin tribe or the Nekork tribe to the Huaxia Army, they cannot receive rewards. Only the real Jiannu is valuable, and they are willing to cooperate with these tribes, make money and do business together. As long as you don’t follow Jiannu to fight, the Chinese Army has everything to talk about.

Such a policy greatly shakes the status of Jiannu, and their prestige has also been hit hard, and they have begun to isolate them.

From then on, the men in the northeast, between the white mountains and black waters were no longer keen on joining Jianzhou, nor were they keen on joining the Eight Banners. They knew that the Eight Banners of Manchuria and Jiannu were not liked at all, and they were the life-and-death enemy of the Chinese army. The Liaonan Prefecture of the Chinese army paid a lot of money to destroy them. The Mongols were thinking that they had spent so much money and spent money in practice. This would have to destroy Jiannu. Otherwise, they would have been sorry for spending so much money, which became the main means for everyone to make money.

Zhou Wentong, the governor of Liaonan, said to Sun Chuanting proudly: "In fact, my Liu family spent money in Liaonan, which was not as much as one-tenth of the imperial court, but the results we achieved were even better."

Sun Chuanting also agreed with it. He sighed and said, "This money is spent in practice and used on the blade. Although he dare not brag like Yuan Manzi at the moment, he said that he would pacify Liao in five years, but there would be no problem in ten years."
