Ming Taizi's Total War

Chapter 144

"I didn't expect you, a tartar, to be able to speak official language. It's really beyond my expectation." Zhu Cihong was really shocked.

"Is it possible that you are in the same family as Tong Yangxing and Tong Yangjia?" Seeing that Tong Mengchun's surname was Tong, Zhu Cihong felt that he must have something to do with these two people.

"Hmph, Tong Yangjia is my uncle, and I am the son-in-law of Shi Wuli's son-in-law." Tong Mengchun did not expect that Zhu Cihong, the little Han emperor, would know the names of their Tong parents' seniors, so he said to Zhu Cihong with a show-off mentality.

When Zhu Cihong heard that he had admitted his relationship with the two, it was no wonder that Tong Yangxing used to be a businessman in Fushun. Before he came into contact with the wild boar skin, he thought he was Han. Tong Mengchun and his family would naturally speak Chinese.

In fact, apart from China in East Asia, there are not so few people who can speak Chinese, or even official language.

Thanks to Zheng He's voyages to the West and the tribute system between the Ming Dynasty and neighboring countries, Liaodong, Korea, Japan, Vietnam, Tibet, and the Western Regions all have a large number of talents who can speak Chinese and are even proficient in Confucianism.

But it was different after Mite Qing entered the customs. For Mite people, their Mandarin is Mite language, so how could it be possible to promote Chinese.

It's a pity that their own people are not willing to learn mite language, so the attitude of neighboring countries can be imagined.

"Oh, no wonder."

"I know that your Tong family is highly Chinese. If you are willing to join me, be my eagle dog, and fight for me, then I can give you a chance to make meritorious deeds."

Zhu Cixiang was not condoning his sins, nor was he looking down on these mites who were not much better than primitive people.

When it comes to talents, there are hundreds of millions of people in China, and there are a lot of talents. Let’s not talk about other places. Let’s just talk about Fengqiu County. If you drop a brick, you won’t know how many people will be able to become marquises and prime ministers in the future.

The reason why he said this and did this is actually to imitate the previous Han emperors to establish ethnic minority troops and let them fight for themselves.

Anyway, they are not Han Chinese, and have nothing to do with Zhu Cihong, and they don't feel sorry for them when they die. They die casually, and the more they die, the better.

If there are more deaths, they will be replenished from their tribes. In this way, they will beat fewer and fewer people, and gradually reduce the population.

"Hmph, to belong to you?"

"A warrior of the Eight Banners is an eagle galloping in the blue sky. How could he be a free-ranging chicken in a farmer's yard? If you want me to belong to you, you might as well dream of becoming the Jade Emperor." Tong Mengchun said viciously.

The mite people have fought against the Han people for decades, and Tong Mengchun is an aristocrat in the Eight Banners of Mite Island, and their Tong family is also favored by the Yezhupi family. It seems a bit difficult for him to bow down to Zhu Cihong.

"What about you?" Zhu Cixiang looked at the Jia La E Zhen and Niu Lu E Zhen behind him.

Zhu Cihong's eyes seemed to be under great pressure, and everyone was silent, like a child who lowered his head and counted the number of ants in front of him.

"It is impossible for a warrior of the Eight Banners to surrender!" Seeing that his comrades did not surrender to Zhu Cihong, Tong Mengchun felt that at this moment, he was the one who really won.

"Hmph, a group of guys who don't know what to do."

"Then take it out and hack it." Since these guys don't know each other and don't cooperate, Zhu Cihong feels that there is no need to waste any more time with them.

"No, Your Majesty, I am willing to be His Majesty's eagle dog, and I am willing to fight for His Majesty." Just when the guards on both sides were about to come up to suppress these people, Echina suddenly stood up and said.

He, Echina, had fought for more than ten years before he could achieve Niulu Ezhen. He had never had a good day, and he was not well received within the Eight Banners. He did not want to leave the Eight Banners for a long time.

"Echina, you coward, how dare you." Tong Mengchun gritted his teeth and looked at Echina.

He did not expect that Ezina would rebel, which was like a knife in his heart.

Originally, losing the battle was hard enough, but now Tong Mengchun added fuel to the fire, Tong Mengchun really wanted to find a crack in the ground and get in right away.

"Tong Mengchun, you are an aristocrat. If you don't have military achievements, someone will create military achievements for you. If you are in danger, Gushan Ezhen will send someone to rescue you. Every time you get promoted and get rich, you will definitely have your share, but what about me?"

"And my savage Jurchen brothers, why did you treat them as your comrades? If it weren't for those Han slaves who can be bullied, we would have been unable to bear it."

Taking advantage of today's opportunity, Echina vented all his grievances against the military aristocrats inside the Eight Banners. In the past, he would not have dared to point the finger at their Gushan Ezhen.

But now that he wants to rely on Zhu Cihong, with the Han emperor as his backer, there is nothing to be afraid of.

"Then you shouldn't rebel." Tong Mengchun was speechless by Echina's words, but being arrogant and unreasonable, he just thought that Echina couldn't do this.

"I was a rebel. I have returned to the feet of the master of the world. The Ming Emperor used to be the ruler and protector of our Jurchens. Now I have corrected my evil ways and returned to the right path, just like Mr. Guan who returned to Liu Bei. "

The story of Romance of the Three Kingdoms is not only very popular in the Central Plains, but also Jurchen, Mongolia, North Korea, Japan and other countries around China also like the stories in it very much.

Thanks to the emergence of the profession of storyteller, soldiers like Echina who do not know a single character can also know the stories inside.

"Okay, well said, Echina, I now appoint you as the commander of the Xiao cavalry guards, and you will be among the direct guards."

Zhu Cixiang was not stingy at all, and he gave Eqina the title of commander.

You must know that a Gushan Ezhen only has 500 soldiers. As the commander, Eqina has more than [-] men and horses, which is almost equivalent to more than half of Gushan Ezhen. Of course, Eqina's The combat effectiveness of the army is definitely incomparable to that of Gushan Ezhen.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." After the guards untied Eqina, Eqina lay on the ground solemnly and bowed to Zhu Cixiang three times and kowtowed nine times.

Many years later, Echina will be grateful for the correct decision he made, because it brought wealth for his family and himself that could not be eaten up in several lifetimes, as well as the guarantee of generational titles.

With Echina as an example, several Mongolian Niulu Ezhen, who had always been dissatisfied with the people of Mizhou, also joined them, and even a Mongolian Eight Banners Jiala Ezhen also decided to submit to Zhu Cihong.

But because they made a decision a little late, the seats couldn't be as good as Echina's.

But even so, Zhu Cihong still made these Niulu Ezhen high-ranking officials with more than a thousand households, and Meng Eight Banner Jiala Ezhen was also named by Zhu Cihong as the Commander of Xiaoqiwei.

At the same time, Zhu Cihong also decided to reorganize all the Manchurian Eight Banners soldiers captured today into Xiaoqiguards. In this way, Echina's Xiaoqiguards will soon be able to fight, saving Zhu Cihong the trouble of training a new army.
