Chapter 1100
The decree was handed down, and not long after, the eunuch Bingbi, who was in charge of ceremonies, arrived in the Wenhua Hall under the guidance of the eunuch Cao Huachun, who was in charge of printing.Almost at the same time, the chief assistant, Wen Tiren, led the cabinet ministers also arrived.The six ministers came one after another, but they all rushed over just after receiving the order.The time is also about the same.

After Emperor Chongzhen arrived, he described the situation in Yunnan and Annan, and then asked seriously: "The chieftain has repeatedly rebelled. What do you think about this?"

After a moment of silence in the Wenhua Hall, Wen Tiren was the chief assistant, and was the first to express his opinion: "Your Majesty, it is of great interest to touch the chieftains by changing the policy of returning the land to the exiles. In the first battle of Dongwu, those chieftains who rebelled were all changed to the exile system. There were as many as six at a time. In Yunnan, there should be a lot of influence. The minister thought that if the court made it clear that those who were loyal to the Ming Dynasty would not change their lands and return to the brigade, then the chieftain would be determined. Suppress the chaos of popular reputation , is also as easy as flipping the palm of your hand!"

After he started, Bi Ziyan, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, also came out and said: "What the chief minister said is very true. In this way, the imperial court will not need to spend a single soldier or food, and just use the soldiers of the surrounding chieftains to pacify Ah. The rebellion in Mizhou. It is not impossible to even order these chieftains to send troops to Annan to suppress the rebellion!"

Xu Guangqi, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, in the original history, at this time, he had died of a serious illness.But on this plane, there are not so many things to worry about. The emperor also promotes scientific knowledge and high-yield crops, which greatly suits his appetite.

In the past two years, as an imperial envoy to promote high-yield crops, he had been to Annan, so he knew a lot about Annan.He didn't go to the chieftain of Yunnan. He went directly to Hetao from Annan.Therefore, after pondering for a while, he followed up and played out: "Annan-South-North confrontation has lasted for a long time. The old minister estimated that if there were no outsiders to instigate, the Ruan family in the south would definitely not be able to break the boat like this, betting everything, to the point where you die and I die, even He even hesitated to stir up the chieftain of Yunnan to rebel."

Among the group of eunuchs in charge of ceremonies, Cao Huachun, who was the leader, secretly glanced at the emperor several times, and after Xu Guangqi finished speaking, he also came out and said: "Your Majesty, this servant thinks that what Xu Shangshu said is very true, these chieftain appeasement envoys Waiting for the barbarian courtiers, but with a little strength, they will be ready to move. No matter if someone provokes them or has other reasons, they are just a group of white-eyed wolves who can't get enough to eat. When the master is not paying attention, they will show their teeth and refuse to obey discipline. Even backfired on the master."

Having said that, he paused, raised his voice, and solemnly played in a high-pitched voice: "This servant thinks that the strategy of reforming the land and returning it to the locals cannot be changed!"

Compared with foreign ministers, even Wen Tiren already knew Emperor Chongzhen very well, but it was not as good as Cao Huachun's understanding of Emperor Chongzhen.It is also because of this that although Shoufu put forward his views, he put forward a completely different opinion from Shoufu.At this point, others may be a little surprised. They don't know why he and Shoufu sang against each other like this, but the eunuchs under him probably guessed the reason.

Therefore, all the eunuchs under his command followed suit one by one, using their own words to echo Cao Huachun's views.

Immediately, there were two different opinions in Wenhua Hall.

Firstly, represented by Shoufu Wen Tiren and Hubu Shangshu Bi Ziyan, they feel that the impact of land reform is too great. If the court can make it clear that they will not take the initiative to reform land, that is, if the chieftain himself does not commit suicide, he will not punish him. In this case, the Tusi Rebellion in Yunnan can be put down quickly, and even the Annan Rebellion can be put down with the help of the Tusi.

The second opinion is the opinion of all the eunuchs in the Sili Supervisor. They believe that the reason why the chieftain rebelled frequently is caused by the chieftain system.

Xu Guangqi was a little depressed. He just expressed his opinion on Annan, but was borrowed by Cao Huachun, as if he was on the side of the Supervisor of Rites.

The instigator, Emperor Chongzhen, remained calm and did not open his mouth to judge the pros and cons.To be honest, these courtiers are not wrong, it is nothing more than Wen Tiren's faction, focusing on the present, and gave specific and feasible countermeasures against the rebellion in Ami Prefecture and Annan; With an understanding of the hereditary system of chieftains, focusing on the future, I feel that we must resolutely abolish the legacy of the previous dynasty of this country within a country.

In this regard, Emperor Chongzhen was also very easy to understand. The reason for these two opinions is nothing more than a butt problem.Shoufu Wen Tiren is Daming's housekeeper, responsible for the whole of Daming, cherishes the current situation of Daming's improvement, and does not want to go to war to minimize the impact of the turmoil in the Southwest.

However, Cao Huachun and others were the internal stewards of the Ming Dynasty, and they focused more on the principle of serving the emperor and doing things for themselves according to the emperor's will.As for the price to be paid for this, it's not that he didn't think about it, but he didn't think about it as much as Wen Tiren, the housekeeper.Obviously, Cao Huachun caught the emperor's intention from the clues, so he stood up with a clear attitude.

These courtiers in the Wenhua Palace are all familiar with Emperor Chongzhen's style of handling political affairs.You can fully express your views in advance, but after the emperor makes a decision, you can no longer have a secret confrontation.Therefore, after they finished speaking their opinions from their respective perspectives, they all turned their attention to Emperor Chongzhen, waiting for him to draw a conclusion.

Emperor Chongzhen glanced at the courtiers below, and said with a serious face: "Since the founding of my Ming Dynasty, have I ever humiliated and asked for peace? Have I bowed to anyone? In my Ming Dynasty, there are only emperors who died in battle, not emperors who knelt down to survive! So what if there are too many? If there is a rebellion, one should destroy the other. This is the principle, and there is absolutely no possibility of compromise. As long as it is within the territory of Ming Dynasty, there cannot be a country within a country! How about the chieftains? Not all of them will be cut off. The policy of reforming the land and returning it to the local people must be implemented. The imperial court has declared that it will not take the initiative to reform the land and return it to the local people, it is absolutely impossible!"

Chengzu conquered Mongolia five times, and finally died in the last conquest.Although he died of illness, he led the army to fight for the country, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he died in battle.Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty, Tumubao was captured, and he led the enemy back without begging for mercy.At the beginning of the founding of the country, the vassal kings all had the military and political power of the vassal state, whether it was territory, financial resources, or military power, let alone the current chieftain.

The words of Emperor Chongzhen were repeated one by one, and there was no other voice in the Wenhua Palace.The emperor's attitude is very clear!
After he finished speaking, he paused, glanced at Wen Tiren and Cao Huachun, and saw that they all bowed their heads in a respectful manner, so he said softly: "Of course, the policy of reforming the land and returning it to the locals cannot be announced immediately. .At least for the time being, it’s not enough. Although some chieftains don’t want to fight, but as it is now, some people use this as an excuse to confuse others. Even if all the southwestern chieftains rebel, I am confident that I can suppress it! Come, the people are suffering!"

The previous words were a denial of Wen Tiren's proposal, and the words just now were a denial of Cao Huachun's side; these people in the Wenhua Hall did not think it was strange.They understood that the emperor had synthesized the opinions of everyone and had his own opinions.What he said just now was just a matter of fact, not aimed at anyone.Therefore, they all listened quietly, waiting for Emperor Chongzhen to finish speaking.

"Therefore, with regard to the southwestern chieftains, the imperial court will maintain the current situation. Whether the land will be returned or not will be left to the chieftains from all over the world to guess. Those chieftains with ulterior motives will be exposed by making them suspicious and rebellious. Just wait for them to jump out, if the local area does not have the strength to suppress the rebellion, my millions of frontier troops and my new army will be idle, just to use them for training."

Having said this, Emperor Chongzhen turned his head to look at Xu Guangqi, Minister of Rites, and said to him: "Xu Qing, the violation of uniforms is related to children's schools, and it must be carried out in the chieftain's territory. exception."

Can a chieftain wear a boa robe?Obviously not, no matter which dynasty it is.Although the service violation style was not aimed at the chieftain at the beginning, it is still possible to use it to emphasize it now.This is tantamount to collecting personal income tax from the officials and gentry in the Tusi territory.Most of the money is used locally, such as building children's schools, building roads and bridges, and so on.It is no different from other places in Daming.

"Abiding by the order!" Xu Guangqi was taken aback for a moment, and then replied immediately.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at all the people below and said seriously: "The court favors the ordinary people in the chieftain's territory, so they can know the good of the court. If the chieftain wants to rebel in the future, those people will not follow the chieftain to death." Create chaos. The so-called those who win the hearts of the people win the world. This is also effective when used for chieftains. So, Wen Qing..."

"The minister is here!" Wen Tiren heard and immediately bowed and waited for the order.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at him and continued: "The officials sent to the southwest are selected by the bureaucracy, and the cabinet must also review them. They must be true people-friendly officials who can benefit the local people. Those chieftains are eager to be attracted by the officials sent by the imperial court. Public indignation and riots cause them to fish in troubled waters!"

"I obey the decree!" The cabinet immediately accepted the decree without looking at the ugly face of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't care about this, and called Wang Cheng'en by name and said: "The East Factory will also send out special servants to secretly check the officials! Later, I will check with the Metropolitan Procuratorate."

Wang Chengen, who was in the queue of Bingbi eunuchs, stepped out immediately and took orders loudly and respectfully!He is the admiral of Dongchang and concurrently the eunuch of Bingbi.

If we say that in the past, officials of the Ming Dynasty looked down on the Southwest and didn't care much about the local people's sentiments and opinions, but now that the emperor has made these arrangements and has a clear purpose, basically no one dares not to take them seriously.

"When the right time, place and people are in harmony, it will be the day when the imperial court will show all the chieftains. I don't believe it. By then, how many chieftains will dare to rebel!" Emperor Chongzhen shouted coldly, "Even if there is a rebellion, my army will not It's vegetarian!"

After he said this, he had reached a conclusion on the Southwest chieftain's affairs.As for the current riots in Ami Prefecture, Yunnan Province and the Annan Rebellion, the chaos is not to be put down for the time being, and preparations are made first to see if there are other chieftains who will jump out to make troubles, so that they can be put down in one fell swoop.

At the end of the meeting, Emperor Chongzhen said to Wen Tiren: "The army from the Liao Dynasty is now on its way back. You have to prepare first."

"The humble minister leads the order!" Wen Tiren heard this, and quickly complied.This is a happy event for everyone, and the atmosphere in the hall seems to have improved a lot.

Today, the Korean War is over.Of course, in fact, it can't be called finishing, it is more appropriate to replace it with finishing.Cao Bianjiao led the new army and chased after Dorgon's remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, keeping a distance of about twenty miles every day.

At the beginning of this kind of scouting war, the Man Qing scouts were still full of tragedy, thinking that for the main force of the Man Qing, and for the future of the Man Qing, they would try their best to shield the Ming army from accepting them at night.But after several scouting battles, after these Manchu scouts were killed, the remaining Manchu scouts didn't dare to fight to the death with the Ming army at night.If it weren't for Cao Bianjiao's strict order, the Ming army would have surpassed the fleeing Dorgon if they didn't accept them at night.

Without giving the remnants of the Qing Dynasty a chance to rest, let alone a chance to destroy the grain fields, they just rushed all the way to the easternmost tip of the Korean peninsula and all the way down to the sea.

Seeing that the Ming army had become the master, the Korean people who were hiding came out of their hiding places one after another. However, even so, the number of people in North Korea was pitifully small.The new army organized these people to harvest grain. In addition to guaranteeing the amount used by the new army, the rest of the grain was used for disaster relief and rebuilding the three cities of Busan, Seoul, and Pyongyang.

It's really pitiful to say that the vast Korean peninsula has been devastated by the Manchu Qing, and there are no human traces.However, the remnants of the Korean people hated the Man Qing the most, but Gwanghae-jun, but Gwanghae-jun was taken away by Dorgon to the Wa Kingdom.

With the support of the Ming army, the people of Jinpu Town did not die many people.They were the first to take the lead and strongly urged the Ming army to stay, and presented the Wanmin Letter, demanding that the Celestial Kingdom accept North Korea and set up prefectures and counties here, so that they would have a sense of security.

Not surprisingly, all the Korean people expressed their desire to become the people of Ming Dynasty.For this reason, Feng Dehua was very happy. He instructed the people in Jinpu Town to write a blood book, Wan Min Biao, and he would pass it on to the Emperor of Ming Dynasty.In addition, these people were also asked to send the same Wanmin Biao to the Governor of Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty.

Winter is approaching, and the new army was ordered to return to Beijing.The garrisons in the three cities of North Korea are in charge of the Dongjiang Army in Jinzhou.The garrison on the Liaodong side is in charge of the Guanning Army left behind at Shanhaiguan and the guard troops in Jizhen and Gyeonggi.As for Jizhen and Gyeonggi, the frontier troops from Shanxi, Shaanxi and other nine sides of Ming Dynasty will be responsible.That is to say, the Liao army will return to Beijing according to the order, and the local garrison troops will start from Shaanxi by the Daming Frontier Army and gradually move eastward.

 Thanks anniexie for the reward!
