Chapter 33 Grand Strategy, Take the West Exit
The main job Qian Shaoshao did during this period was to balance the power balance between Zhuo Luo and Bao Chengxian.
When Zhuoluojiala's strength far exceeded Bao Chengxian, Zhuoluo was the master of this land. Even if Bao Chengxian had a greater official position, he was also the executor of the mission. However, in Jianzhou In people's eyes, Bao Chengxian is just a domestic slave.
Zhuo Luo may understand that doing things is more important than who is superior and who is inferior. It is completely impossible to expect his five hundred warriors to understand the same.
At this time, what Qian Shaoshao has to do is to continuously weaken Zhuo Lu's strength, strengthen Bao Chengxian's strength, and finally let Bao Chengxian's strength prevail.
Of course, the prerequisite for weakening Zhuo Luo's strength is to harm the interests of the Mongolian princes, let Zhuo Luo become the Li Hongji and Zhang Bingzhong of the Ming Dynasty, and let Bao Chengxian become the Ming Dynasty whose power was evaded by the Yun family. officials.
Then, Qian Shao Shao can continue to expand his Guihua City in the name of Bao Chengxian. This is the simplest, most effective, labor-saving and covert expansion method, and at the same time it can win enough for the fragile Guihua City. time.
At this time, the weakest person on the Mongolian grassland was not Qian Shaoshao. Ever since Gao Jie's army entered the grassland, he was actually the most powerful force on the grassland.
When the three thousand troops of the Yun clan led by Gao Jie entered the grassland, they burned, killed and looted the grassland in the name of Jianzhou people. After only entering the grassland for a month, the Mongolian tribes hid at the foot of Yinshan Mountain for the winter. Just three disappeared.
It is Bao Chengxian’s responsibility to rebuild Guihua City in the beginning of spring. Although Dorgon, the leader of the Zhengbai Banner, seriously opposed it, Huang Taiji still issued an order to rebuild Guihua City.
The Mongols who were plundered by the "Jianzhou people" lost their cattle and sheep, their tents, and all their property, so the first wave of refugees appeared on the grassland.
There are even some tribes who are afraid that the "Jianzhou people" have to start the tragic northward journey before the grass grows.
Unable to find more available Mongolians, Bao Chengxian could only introduce a large number of homeless Han people to reclaim land and grow food. Among them, Shanxi, Shaanxi, and Hebei had the largest number of refugees.
They poured into the grasslands from Shahukou in Shanxi, Fugukou in Shaanxi, and Dushikou in Hebei, hoping to find a way to survive.
When Qian Shaoshao, through Bao Chengxian, gave the newly established "Manchu Qing Dynasty" conditional consent to the Ming refugees entering Mongolia to grow food for them.
Qian Shaoshao also used the two housekeepers Hong Fu and Lu Fu to prevent the Ming border troops from blocking the refugees from entering the Guihua City area.
For a time, "walking to the west exit" became a trend.
This is a good result that Yun Zhao is looking forward to... changing the population structure of the land outside the mouth.
Whether it is Huang Taiji who is far away in Shengjing or Chongzhen who is far away in Beijing, they only know that the refugees are migrating out of their mouths, but they do not know that the one hundred people in Yushan Academy who are over ten years old areThe five-year-old boy had already left Yushan Academy as early as last autumn and quietly joined the immigration wave.
These young people, who are enthusiastic, cheerful, capable, literate, and able to solve many troubles encountered by the refugees along the way, naturally became the leaders of the refugees.
Led by them, more young people gathered around them, vowing to find a way to survive for the wandering villagers.
Just to make these one hundred teenagers leaders among the refugees, Yun Zhao provided 90% of the income from the grassland to these teenagers.
However, the wandering villagers believed more in their clan and their fellow villagers. It was difficult to change the minds of these refugees, so the young people changed themselves and recognized and worshiped their relatives one after another. A few even married other people's daughters on the road...
Among the refugees, capable people quickly stood out. When these simple refugee leaders who stood out met, they made a strange discovery. , most of the refugee leaders seem to be young people.
The process of crossing the Great Wall from the Ming Dynasty was also a process of integration. In this process, many virtuous elder leaders gradually disappeared and were replaced by young people.
A small number of refugee teams who are not led by young people will always suffer a lot of hardships. Some will be interrogated and locked up by the border troops, and some will be robbed by bandits. Even those who can barely come outside the customs, They discovered that the difficulties they faced were even greater than ever before.
The refugee team led by young people can easily find a piece of land to live on, or someone from the Duoyan tribe will lead them to the Guihua City construction site.
Fifteen-year-old Zhang Guozhu was very dissatisfied with his surname. Ever since his father took eighty kilograms of millet from Yushan Academy and left him and his sister in Yunshi Village, he turned around and left. The last name is very dissatisfied.
At the age of ten, he had already started to become sensible. Because he was short, his father would tell him that he was only seven years old... in order to sell him. After all, Yun said at the time that as long as Children under eight years old.
My sister cried miserably, but Zhang Guozhu did not cry, but was truly desperate. He only knew one thing, that is, his father did not want him.
Just when he thought he and his sister were going to live the legendary miserable life, he didn’t expect that the first thing they did when they came to Yun’s was to eat!
And it was glutinous and soft millet porridge... He and his sister's stomachs almost exploded from the porridge that day.
"Guozhu, Liu Bingxiang's family is preparing to leave us." A dark-skinned young man came over in a hurry, interrupting Zhang Guozhu's thoughts.
Zhang Guozhu showed his white teeth and smiled: "Goudan, why did their family want to leave us?"
The swarthy young man named Goudan said: "Liu Bingxiang's family has a lot of labor. , they didn’t want to eat in the same pot with us.
I tried to persuade him, but he told me to get out, and said that Mr. Mongolia was a kind man, and he only wanted to eat.If their family is willing to work hard, they will have a good life in a short time. "
Zhang Guozhu was stunned, and after a moment he said: "Mongolians are kind?
Goudan nodded and said: "Liu Bingxiang said that the Mongolian old man smiled at him. He wanted to farm land for this Mongolian old man." "
Zhang Guozhu smiled and said: "Go and ask who else is not willing to be with us and is willing to go directly to the Mongolians to work as slaves.
After asking clearly, drive them out of the camp immediately. We don’t want such people. One by one, we don’t want them. "
Goudan chuckled and said, "You have to do it yourself. ”
Zhang Guozhu followed Goudan back to the camp. At this time, there was already a commotion in the camp. Liu Bingxiang, his wife, three sons, and their belongings were arguing with a few old men in a loud voice. The quarrel was about to break out.
When an old man with scratches on his face saw Zhang Guozhu coming, he grabbed Zhang Guozhu's hand and said: "Guozhu, please persuade Liu Bingxiang, their family can't leave. The Mongols have no good intentions. "
Before Zhang Guozhu could say anything, Liu Bingxiang started scolding.
"What does Zhang Guozhu, a coward, know? Who can hire these people when a group of people stay together? I see how kind the Mongolian old man is. He was smiling at me just now. That Mongolian old man drives a lot of cattle and sheep, so he must be a wealthy family. My eldest son and second son are both good sheep herders. If you dare to do anything wrong, Our good deeds, I, I will fight with you. "
Zhang Guozhu looked at Liu Bingxiang who was jumping and yelling indifferently, and then looked at the blood stains on Grandpa Liu's face that Liu Bingxiang's mother-in-law had scratched. He supported Grandpa Liu and said, "He wants to go, and we can't stop him." Come on, Grandpa Liu, just let him go. You can choose the road, good or bad, by yourself. We can just show our feelings as fellow villagers. "
Grandpa Liu looked helpless, but Liu Bingxiang raised his thumb and said: "After all, my husband is a man who has read a book and understands human nature. Don't worry, when our family gets a firm foothold, we can also help our fellow villagers." Are we not?
Hei Wa! Let's go, that Mongolian old man is still waiting for us. "
Seeing Liu Bingxiang's family leaving the camp carrying a load and pushing a wheelbarrow, Grandpa Liu stamped his feet and said, "What are you doing!" ”
Zhang Guozhu didn’t feel much regret for the departure of Liu Bingxiang’s family. It was Liu Bingxiang who always accused him of leading a group of people named Liu around without any benefit.
It would be better not to have such a family in a collective.
There are 347 refugees in Zhang Guozhu’s camp. Without Liu Bingxiang’s family, it becomes an integer. < /p>
Seeing that Grandpa Liu and the other old people who supported him were all crestfallen, he smiled and said to Grandpa Liu: "I just found the Han steward of the Duoyan Department, and he allocated a piece of land for us. Grain will be distributed by noon tomorrow at the latest, as well as cattle! "
Grandpa Liu was taken aback, grabbed Zhang Guozhu and said: "Is there a cow? ”
Zhang GuoZhu Cha spread his hands and said with a smile: "Ten! This Mongolian cow can't plow the land, so it needs some training from you, Grandpa Liu."
Grandpa Liu grabbed a dirty old man and said: "Liu Erniu, this matter has to be left to Liu Erniu. He is a good hand at handling animals. He will obey many disobedient animals in his hands. Grandpa Tian, with the cattle, we can be here. Survive."
