"If there is a soldier of the right age, his family members, old and young, can all be counted as Dingkou. Every time the local official sends a thousand Dingkou to Annan to settle down, I will grant him another county in Annan and assign him official positions..."
Zhu Yongxing only had a general idea, but he hadn't thought about the details yet, and what he said was very rough.
"Your Highness, is it a county?" Long Ji Zhao pricked up his ears and showed a hint of enthusiasm on his face.
"Well, this needs to be made clear first." Zhu Yongxing pretended to be very down-to-earth, with a bit of embarrassment, "The counties in Annan are smaller than those in China, and are roughly equivalent to townships or towns."
One township or one town is fine! Long Jizhao and Long Jizuo exchanged glances and secretly calculated in their hearts: A thousand people, excluding family members, can produce more than 300 soldiers at most. Compared with their current strength, the impact will not be significant.
Big, this trading value.
Whether it is a cunning rabbit with three burrows or spreading its branches, it is always a good thing to have one or more foundations in Annan. For those who have no nephews or close relatives, it is better to give some people and find a background for them than to stay in this place and may explode at any time.
The place of war is strong!
Long Jizhao and Long Jizuo both made up their minds and showed more attentiveness. They continued to praise Zhu Yongxing, from his righteousness in leaving Burma and entering Yunnan, to his heroic victory in Tengchong, and to his decisiveness in dealing with Emperor Yaozong of Tang Dynasty. One after another, high hats flew over,
Zhu Yongxing also smiled more and more happily.
"Excessive praise, you two are really over-appreciated." Zhu Yongxing waved his hands and said in a mysterious manner: "I will issue an order in a few days regarding Ding's decision to appoint local officials, but it will not be stated that it is the land of Annan.
. You must also keep it a secret until I win the conquest of Annan, and then make it public."
"I understand, I understand. Please rest assured, Your Highness." Long Jizuo agreed repeatedly. He was deceived by Zhu Yongxing's attitude and behavior of "I trust you very much, and I won't tell ordinary people."
Hehe, in fact, I would say the same thing to others. Zhu Yongxing has already demonstrated his thunderous methods, and he appears to be very tolerant and easy-going to these two local powerful factions.
It is necessary to determine the value. Only with the support of these local snakes can we stand firm in areas other than Sanjiang, Yunnan, and be able to persist for a long time. You must know that many chieftains have decades or hundreds of years of inheritance history and accumulated grain, grass, and money.
Silver is very abundant. Zhu Yongxing will not take it by force, but he can borrow it or sell foreign lands. Before establishing stable financial resources, Zhu Yongxing has no other way to solve his financial problem.
Begging is an unpleasant word, but it is exactly the current situation of the Ming army. Although the military garrison has begun to be implemented, it will take time to see the effect. At least within half a year, you will have to reach out to the chieftains to plunder and plunder.
Naturally, contradictions and conflicts will arise. Jin King Li Dingguo made such a mistake and was forced to use his troops to pacify local areas, which indirectly caused the Yuanjiang Nasong uprising against the Qing Dynasty to fail because it was isolated and helpless.
Since the native people under the rule of chieftains could still tolerate exploitation without resisting, Zhu Yongxing would not be asking for trouble and would have to deal with the problem based on his own likes and dislikes and the lofty goal of liberating the working people.
Moreover, although Zhu Yongxing has set the general direction of entering Annan eastward and then Guangxi, he still regards Yunnan as a stable base for resisting the Qing Dynasty in the future and will not give up lightly. Although Yunnan is remote, it is "real estate hardware".
It is famous for gold, silver, copper, iron and lead. If it can be fully developed and utilized, it is a major source of wealth.
After the banquet was held, Zhu Yongxing returned to his plain and benevolent demeanor. He comforted all the chieftains and local officials, and named Long Jixiang (Long Jixiang, Long Jizuo's younger brother) as the Annan Xuanfu envoy Si Tongzhi.
official position.
At that time, Annan was demoted from a subordinate state to a territory by the Ming Dynasty during the Jiajing period, and its Thirteen Roads were changed into Thirteen Xuanfu Divisions, each with Xuanfu, Tongzhi, Deputy Envoy, Qian Shi, and Tingdu Tongzhi. In order to check and balance
, both the Mo family and the Li family were granted the title of Commander-in-Chief of Annan. The Ming Dynasty also asked the Li Dynasty to create Gaoping, and Taiyuan was ceded to the descendants of the Mo family, forming a separatist situation of the Mo family in Gaoping. Although the Li Dynasty later claimed that its country name was
"Dai Viet", but this country name aroused the taboo and anger of the Ming Dynasty, so it did not grant the title of King Annan for a long time.
The younger brother Long Jixiang was granted an official position, which meant that Zhu Yongxing had agreed to the land grant in Annan. Long Jixiang felt a stone fall in Long Jizuo's heart, and he became even more diligent in his service.
"King Li Jin has always run the army in a strict and orderly manner, and he has never committed any crimes. A scum like Yao Zong of the Tang Dynasty has been defrauded by his subordinates, which will not damage his heroic reputation." Zhu Yongxing only accepted half of the grain and salary from each chieftain, and bluntly said that they should
He reported the other half to Li Dingguo, "Yunnan is temporarily under the control of the King of Jin and the King of Zhao. You should give your full support so that the situation against the Qing Dynasty can be reversed. If discord arises over trivial matters, it will hurt the relatives and the enemies."
Hurry up and make the Qing army benefit."
Long Ji Zhao and Long Ji Zuo only hated Emperor Yaozong of the Tang Dynasty, but did not have much resentment or dislike for the King of Jin Li Dingguo. After all, the Daxi Army had been running Yunnan for more than ten years and had implemented a good ethnic policy. Li Dingguo's army had strict military discipline and was quite good.
Well received.
"Your Highness's teachings, we will definitely bear them in mind and dare not disobey them even a little bit." Long Jizhao bowed respectfully and replied: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin has governed Yunnan Province for several years. He has made very strict legislation and ensured peace between the soldiers and the people.
The province is at peace, and all the lower officials are in awe and admiration. Later, when His Majesty the King of Jin went on an eastern expedition, we also sent troops to pay our dues and repay our hard work. Now that the Qing army is rampant, we should unite sincerely to share the crisis, how can we create a quarrel with His Majesty the Jin Dynasty?"
The Western Army pacified Yunnan Province and stabilized the situation in Yunnan within a few years. Sun Kewang's contribution may not be as much as that of Li Dingguo. It was just a rebellion, so no one can say anything good about him.
Zhu Yongxing was very satisfied with Long Jizhao's statement, very pleased, and was surprised by Long Jizhao's level of Chinese language. This guy spoke better than himself. He was used to speaking in the vernacular, but it was still difficult to change it after time travel, and he didn't have the ancient literary attainments.
I had to make it a little simpler and add some extra embellishments to make it messy.
Although they are all called chieftains, they are located in different places, established at different times, and have different systems and cultures, so they cannot be generalized. Some chieftains have a slavery economy, and some have a feudal lordship economy.
Some are in the transitional stage between the two.
In terms of the degree of Chineseization, the chieftains are also different due to their different environments and levels of communication. For example, in the Yuanjiang area, it is common for native officials and ordinary people from ethnic minorities to receive education in Han culture. The father of Song even paid a lot of money to
Kunming hired a learned man to teach his son and nephew, and built a building to collect thousands of books, making the Na family a well-known "scholarly family" in southern Yunnan.
The Mo Nailong family and the Yuanjiang Na family are both from the Dai ethnic group and have a very good relationship. They have been in contact with each other for more than a hundred years. They have been greatly influenced by the Na family and have been influenced by Han culture. Like Yuanjiang, they "set up officials and established schools."
", who has deep feelings for the Han people and the Ming Dynasty.
The Dai people are good, the chieftain is diligent in giving gifts, and the "golden peacock" is also beautiful. As they sang and danced, Zhu Yongxing was immediately attracted by the graceful figure and beautiful face of the Dai girl.
Food and sex are also the same. For a normal man, when he sees a beautiful woman, his eyes can't help but look at her more and more, and he keeps appreciating and criticizing her in his heart. This is a problem that cannot be corrected.
