Chapter 249: The Mongol War Comes to an End

The Fourteenth Year of the Apocalypse, Spring.&1t;/p>

The grass grows again on the grassland, and the green grass grows over the earth.&1t;/p>

The Ming Dynasty War against Mongolia officially came to an end in the spring of this year. The Mongolian resistance force was completely disintegrated by the Ming Dynasty. Only a small number of Mongolians were left to become horse bandits and wandered around the grassland. However, due to the lack of a mass base, the guerrilla war between these horse bandits was like a rootless tree and was destined to wither quickly under the Qing Dynasty of the Ming army.&1t;/p>

The production of the entire grassland began to recover in an orderly manner after the beginning of spring. The court dispatched a large amount of supplies to the grassland to help Mongolian herders resume production.&1t;/p>

These Mongolian herders allocated larger grasslands in northern Mohe, and each Mongolian herder allocated more than 7,000 mu of grasslands. The main reason is that the quality of these grasslands is not as good as that of the grasslands in southern Mohe, because the dimensions are higher and the grass yield is lower. At the same time, some of the grasslands are not very good, and the grassland area allocated by herders may reach tens of thousands of mu.&1t;/p>

Mainly, many of these Mongolian herders died in the war last year. Although there were not many deaths in the elderly, weak, women and children, too many deaths were caused by young and strong.&1t;/p>

After some statistics, the war reduced the strength of the Mongolian grasslands by nearly 400,000, and almost nothing left was the strength of the Mongolian grasslands. Of these 400,000, about 300,000 were killed by the Ming army, and nearly 100,000 Mongolian cavalry were taken to the Central Asian grassland by Lin Danhan.&1t;/p>

As a result, the grassland is full of children with children who have lost their fathers. These elderly, weak, women and children are not considered one family, but are arranged by the Ming Dynasty to live in a collective ranch.&1t;/p>

This kind of collective ranch, the court will be responsible for all the materials required for production, and the court will also operate and manage, and the business income will be used to support these orphans and widows.&1t;/p>

At the same time, the imperial court first popularized Chinese education here. Children in collective farms can enter the school for free. In addition, the imperial court's Ministry of Rites is speeding up to prepare various black materials about Lin Danhan and the Mongolian powerful class oppressing ordinary Mongolian people in the past, and is preparing to be included in the history textbook. At the same time, the Mongolian region will specially compile a detailed history textbook.&1t;/p>

Chinese education must be implemented on the Mongolian grasslands, just like in later China, many Mongolians in Inner Mongolia were actually Chineseized.&1t;/p>

As long as they do not discriminate against these ethnic minorities in terms of policies and seriously ensure their stability in their lives, they can still be able to conquer people with virtue. Of course, the premise is that they accept the sinicization. If they do not accept the sinicization, the court's policy of conquering people with virtue will have no practical significance and will only raise a group of ungrateful wolves.&1t;/p>

The biggest difference between humans and animals is that humans are the spirits of all things, and they have the ability and consciousness to resist nature and transform nature. However, animals do not have this consciousness, and they will only adapt to nature. The result of adapting to nature is to advocate the prey of the weak. Once people advocate the law of prey on the weak, they have common characteristics with animals.&1t;/p>

The animal nature of a nation depends on its cultural level. In fact, except for China, which uses Taoism as its cultural foundation, the cultures of most other countries are animalistic, and some are even very strong. Especially in Japan, things that often appear in their various comics that are as prey on the weak.&1t;/p>

Implementing the sinicization of ethnic minorities is also a kind of benign transformation of ethnic minorities. Bloodline and other aspects have never been very important to China. It can be said that China is also a melting pot of ethnic groups. As long as you accept the Han culture, you will be considered a Han Chinese.&1t;/p>

But from a bloodline perspective, the characteristics of this national melting pot doomed that the people within China must be of varying quality. Therefore, with China's national conditions, it is impossible to follow the high welfare policies of Westerners, and a pyramid-ruling system will inevitably be formed within it.&1t;/p>

Anyway, it is the ability to go up and the inability to go down. The level you can climb to depends on your competitiveness. Whether this competitiveness is inherited or acquired efforts.&1t;/p>

When these ethnic minorities are integrated, they can reach the level they can reach in the future. Under the system where the state only guarantees basic survival rights and basic welfare, this ethnic integration system can still continue and integrate more ethnic groups.&1t;/p>

The Mongolians were also a group that the Ming Dynasty would like to integrate into the next time. Chineseization must be implemented on the grassland. You can ignore remote places, but Mongolian towns and other cities with relatively concentrated populations and pastoral areas with denser populations must first make Chinese characters and Chinese common use in daily life.&1t;/p>

Once this goal is achieved, ethnic cultural differences will gradually be eliminated in a subtle way. Even if the registered race is different from the Han ethnic group, it can be summarized by the Chinese nation. Over time, an ethnic group dominated by Han culture will be formed.&1t;/p>

Therefore, when the imperial court placed those Mongolians, it was not petty at all, nor did it engage in ethnic discrimination. Their requirements for these ordinary Mongolian herders were actually very simple. As long as the imperial court could make their lives better than before under the rule of Lin Danhan and Mongolian nobles, they would naturally support the imperial court and naturally accept the sinicization.&1t;/p>

The Mongolian War has come to an end, and the troops on the grasslands have been withdrawn to the pass, northeast and northwest. The imperial court sent three production corpses and a border guarding force on the Mongolian grasslands, leaving two cavalry divisions permanently stationed in the north of the Mo.&1t;/p>

The production corps are mainly concentrated in the northwest desert area, which is mainly mountainous and hilly terrain, and there are a large number of lakes, rivers and forests. Although the spring and autumn are relatively short, agricultural production can still be carried out.&1t;/p>

In the northern desert area, the Mongolians were placed in the eastern grassland area. The grassland had been allocated. In the future, the excess population of Mongolia would enter towns and become industrial population after being sinicized. Or if they entered the Huang Cult to be a monk, they would not cause chaos or war because there was not enough grassland.&1t;/p>

Once the grassland system of the imperial court is established, it will become relatively stable. Moreover, the Mongolian herders have relatively large pastures, and the pastures belong to them. Therefore, these Mongolian herders will cherish their pastures when grazing. Under the propaganda and education of the imperial court, they will not overgraze, and the ecological environment of the grassland does not have to be afraid of being destroyed.&1t;/p>

At the same time, there is a large grassland on the grassland that was designated as a wildlife reserve by the court. This wildlife reserve is prohibited from grazing and hunting, and there are also wild horses inside.&1t;/p>

With the financial resources of the court, it is relatively easy to place hundreds of thousands of Mongolian herders. The most important thing is that after a war, the population of Mongolia dropped sharply, and the Ming army seized more cattle and sheep. It is enough to allocate these spoils to those herders to resume production.&1t;/p>

After the grassland was distributed, the Mongolian herders also supported the Ming Dynasty. Under this new system, they could settle down and produce on the grassland without having to rush around, nor did they need to be exploited by the Mongolian nobles. They could also exchange for Ming Dynasty goods unimpeded, and good days were waving to them.&1t;/p>

With the support of these Mongolian herders, the reactionary forces on the Mongolian grasslands were no longer possible to counterattack. The court also began to withdraw the army with confidence.&1t;/p>

The field troops that had just been withdrawn were immediately dispatched to the Huaihe River Basin and Huguang area.&1t;/p>

As a large number of officials headed south into Huguang and Jianghuai and Huaihe areas, the officialdom was in a panic. The sharp sword hanging above his head might fall down at any time. (To be continued.)&1t;/p>
