Chapter 63: Strange things can be lived in
A long time ago, when the Han people united with foreigners, most of them liked to use gentle methods!
Facts have proved that if there is no strong force to monitor, the final result of Huairou will be that Huairou will cause a lot of disasters.
Many times, when we show mercy to foreigners, we only move ourselves. As for foreigners - as long as the Han people are still in a dominant position, they feel it is a great humiliation.
Whenever foreigners ruled the Han people, they refused to use the same gentle approach to treat the Han people. Instead, they tried their best to kill, exploit, and weaken them.
Therefore, the Han people with a large number of people can only become leaders. This is forced by the general trend.
After all, there are too many Han people, they occupy the most land, and they are also the most knowledgeable and forward-looking race. Only becoming the ruler of this land is a relatively fair choice.
The historical process is actually a very cruel process of the weak and the strong. At this time, the Mayan dynasties of the Yucatan Peninsula, Guatemala and Belize on the American continent were on the verge of extinction.
The one hundred and two British Puritans on the Mayflower schooner that landed in North America twenty years ago were exchanging strong liquor for land with the Indians. More than a hundred years later, they They would give gifts containing the smallpox virus to the Indians...
Compared with the barbaric Westerners who have never become a civilized country, the Han people know better how to deal with foreigners.
Yunzhao was aware of the strategy used by the Qing Dynasty on the Mongols to reduce their population and eliminate households. As a ruler, this was a good policy, because during the lifetime of the Qing Dynasty, Mongolia had no more than one After the two rebellions, it was mostly peaceful.
From the perspective of policy efficiency, this is an effective policy.
However, Yun Zhao did not want to use this policy, not because it was too cruel, but because Yun Zhao needed the Mongols to go all the way west to help him explore the unknown North Sea, and even the vastness north of the North Sea. earth.
In Yun Zhao's plan, the Ming Dynasty's territory would not only go all the way to the north, but also all the way to the west, all the way to the southwest... Only these three directions have a little room for expansion.
Yun Zhao is very familiar with the Northwest. He has been to nineteen counties in the Hexi Corridor alone, and has actually inspected eleven counties. Therefore, regarding the problems there, He knew about it, and because he did not make a good report, he received a warning.
At that time, he had no say in the Hexi Corridor, not even the right to make suggestions. Now, he has all the powers - even the right to kill.
Most of the aliens in the northwest have no concept of land, so as long as you drive them away, they will leave...
In their view, land is given by gods. If the emperor doesn't allow it, then just leave.
After a long night of chatting with Sun Guoxin, who quietly returned, Yun Zhao found that he seemed to have aHe wanted a better weapon, so before dawn, he hurriedly gave Pei Zhong an order to invite the most famous mullahs and imams in Chang'an City to come to Yushan to discuss the construction of a large temple in Yushan.
Comprehensively build Yushan!
Yun Zhao is very good at building something. At least, he has built a rural village called "Flower Village" before, and the transformation process is extremely simple.
Taking advantage of this village’s proximity to the city, we planted many flowers in the village, repaired the roads in the village, painted the exterior walls of farmers’ homes, cleared all dry toilets, and protected the six Eleven century-old pear trees.
We sorted out some rough foods that have long since disappeared but still exist in people’s memories, and printed them openly on the menu.
Then - he vigorously promoted the ancient culture and good nature of this village in the city, and brought in some very old people to tell the people in the city how kind the people here were. Kindness is how hospitable and honest it is.
After these things were done, he went to beg the bus company to open a bus from the city to 'Huancun'.
When ‘Flower Village’ opened, there were huge crowds of people, loud gongs and drums...it was lively for three years. Later, I heard that because of the poor quality and high price, very few people went there.
Even so, the benefits obtained by the villagers are still higher than those from farming.
Yushan itself has all the hardware to become a sacred mountain. Now, Yun Zhao really wants to build Yushan into a sacred mountain that combines culture and religion.
Sun Guoxin is right - don't worry about people's beliefs. What the government has to do is to make people revere gods, and they must revere all gods - then, when a person believes in all gods , a person who is afraid of others will naturally become an atheist.
Most Han people are like this. They will worship Buddha when they enter a temple, worship gods when they enter a Taoist temple, burn incense when they see the City God Temple, stop to pray when they see the Earth Temple, or even pray sincerely when they see Jesus in the Ala Temple. Say a prayer.
Anyway, in the hearts of Han people, there is no harm in worshiping gods and Buddhas more often.
There is a huge difference between turning clergy in temples into service personnel and not turning them into propagandists, so we must be cautious.
On Yushan Mountain today, there is the largest Jesus Temple in China and even the Ming Dynasty, and the Lama Temple is second only to the Potala Palace. Yun Zhao believes that building a huge Allah Temple is also an urgent matter.
Of course, both Han Buddhist temples and Taoist temples are indispensable.
With so many gods crowded together, miracles that Izu Yunzhao could not expect are likely to occur.
It is easy to build some magnificent buildings, but it is very difficult to cast a layer of divine light on these buildings.
However, Sun Guoxin said that this was his business and that Yun Zhao did not need to worry about it.
For a person inSun Guoxin, a Living Buddha with tens of thousands of people following him on the grasslands and even on the snow-capped mountains, and paying homage to him, should have such abilities.
These days, what Yun Zhao does most is talk to his brothers and sisters.
He talked to Han Xiufen about the importance of controlling the ocean in the Ming Dynasty.
He talked to Li Dingguo about the significance of having an infinitely deep territory to the Ming Dynasty.
He and Xu Wu wanted to talk about the Central Empire's requirements for the quality of its people.
He talked with Duan Guoren about the significance of the Western Regions and even Tibetan areas to China.
He even talked to Shi Lang about the importance of ruling the Taiwan Strait and forming the first protective island chain overseas from the Ming Dynasty.
He talked with Haechi about further deepening the function of legal restraint and protection of people's lives.
Talk to Suzaku about the significance of a peaceful and peaceful Southeast to the entire Ming Dynasty world...
In short, he is very busy these days.
These conversations were heart-to-heart, and the environment for the conversations was carefully chosen. Pei Zhong even prepared in advance what kind of incense to light when they talked.
This is what a conference looks like.
Talk in advance, unify thoughts, widely accept opinions, and then reach a contract acceptable to everyone, and finally implement it after a unified vote at the Congress.
At the conference, those who have opinions will be businessmen, farmers, and craftsmen. It doesn’t matter. Compromise should be compromised, and persistence should be persisted. It doesn’t matter even if there is an argument, it will make the conference more important. Real, more grand.
It was late at night, and Yun Zhao was still reviewing the programmatic speech he was about to deliver word for word. In this speech, not a single word was allowed to be ambiguous, let alone a single word to be criticized.
After Yun Zhao read the last word, he took a long breath, stamped his seal on the document, and gave instructions. Pei Zhong carefully took it away and prepared to print it as the most important meeting document at the conference. Distributed to every representative.
After drinking down the herbal tea in the cup, Yun Zhao leaned his head on the back of the chair and closed his eyes to rest.
Han Lingshan came over and said: "Li Hongji, Zhang Bingzhong sent envoys, hoping to attend this conference."
Yun Zhao waved his hand and said: "Let them stay as far away as possible Get away."
Han Lingshan frowned and said, "This will strengthen the determination of these two giant bandits to fight against us."
"They already know that I am with them. I know what you mean is to let these people participate in the conference secretly. This is not necessary. The conference must be solemn and pure, and no other things can be mixed in. ”
"Okay, it's okay to reject them. The problem is that Chen Yan, the chief minister of the Ming Dynasty, also sent people to prepare to observe the meeting."
Yun Zhao was stunned for a moment and said: "Isn't the chief minister Zhou Yanru?"< /p>
Han Lingshan smiled and said: "Hong Chengchou was defeated in Liaodong. Zhou Tingru's crime was not pardoned. He was deposed and imprisoned. He was changed to Chen Yan."
Yun Zhao shook his head and said: "Chen Yan? ”
Han LingSandao: "According to the news from the palace, the reason why the emperor punished Zhou Tingru and appointed Chen Yan was to move the capital!"
"Move the capital?"
"Yes, the emperor Having discovered that the capital could not be defended, he planned to move the capital to Nanjing in order to gain further momentum. If he proposed to move the capital, he would be laughed at for thousands of years, and it would violate the ancestral system, so he hoped that Chen Yanlai would take the initiative to move the capital.
Yun Zhao frowned and asked: "What is Chen Yan's attitude?"
Han Lingshan said: "Chen Yan thinks that his reputation is also very important, so he refuses to stand out. He is currently talking to the emperor. Confrontation, hoping that the emperor will regain his spirit and save the building from falling." Yun Zhao sighed and said: "This is to let the emperor die in the capital."
Han Lingshan. He shook his head and said: "Even if they want to retreat to Nanjing now, they have no way to go."
Yun Zhao frowned and said: "How come there is no way to go? They can go from Zhending Mansion. From Shanxi to Henan and through Kaifeng..."
As Yun Zhao spoke, his voice slowly dropped.
Han Lingshan said: "Most of Shanxi is in our hands, most of Henan is in our hands, and further forward, it is Li Hongji's territory... Whether it is us or Li Hongji, it is the same to the emperor.
So, we can only go to sea from Tianjin. However, the Ming Dynasty Navy has long been in dilapidated state. The only ships that can go out to sea are merchant ships and no warships. Going to sea on merchant ships is not safe either. Zheng Jing, Japanese pirates, Westerners, and Shi Lang are even more dangerous."
"People like Chen Yan have no chance of survival."
Han Lingshan sighed: "Chen Yan. Yan doesn't think so. They feel that they have the emperor in their hands, a rare treasure. No matter who comes to Beijing, they will have something special to live in."
Yun Zhao was stunned for a moment and said: "The rare thing you are talking about is. Refers to the emperor?"
Han Lingshan said: "Isn't he the emperor?"
