379 See you in the picture
The tribal leaders are very concerned about what Xiao Ruxun said, "what they are required to do", if they guess correctly, it is probably similar to casting names, asking them to express their loyalty to the Ming Dynasty by doing something, Mang Yinglong also asked them to do this, they don't think it's strange, but they just don't know what the Ming Dynasty needs them to do to express their loyalty - now in these years, the verbal obedience of the ministers and Nagong can no longer meet the needs of the bigwigs.
"I wonder what Admiral Ming needs us to do? As long as we can do it, we will do it. ”
These chiefs expressed this through two foreigners.
Xiao Ruxun smiled and said: "It's very simple, it's not difficult, it's just that after the Ming Dynasty conquered this land, in order to prevent the revival of the Mangyingli forces, it was decided to occupy this place once and for all, restore the territory of the Yongle Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, reintegrate this place into the rule of the Ming Dynasty, set up official jurisdiction, and build the local area, give you a better life and more security, so in order to build here, you need to change the place where your tribe is stationed." ”
The leaders instantly understood two things - first, the Ming wanted to officially rule here, not leave after the fight, and second, the Ming did not trust them, fearing that they would become the second reckless Yingli, so they should strengthen supervision and control in this way.
Although they are barbarians, how many of them are fools who can become tribal leaders and tribal leaders? When it comes to the issue of interests, regardless of whether they are cultured or not, they are all the same fierce and cunning, there are no fools, Xiao Ruxun's abacus They quickly understood, and then, it was unhappy, and then, it was fear.
Mang Yinglong was in order to subdue them, but the troops fought several battles and killed the heads of the people, so they were all subdued, and obediently provided food and grass to the Burmese people, and now the Ming Dynasty is far stronger than the Burmese people, if these people go against the will of the Ming Dynasty, will the Ming Dynasty use such a reason to attack them?
None of them dared to be sure that the Ming Dynasty would not do this, in fact, Xiao Ruxun did have such a plan, but considering the problem of future rule, Xiao Ruxun still planned to use the method of razing to defeat the Ming Dynasty, not to let the Ming Dynasty fall into practice, but to let these people fight by themselves through the exchange of interests and discord.
He guessed correctly, these leaders were frowning one by one, and they could see that they were not willing to do this, but at the same time, they were very worried about the strong force of the Ming Dynasty, so they were quite entangled.
Xiao Ruxun didn't plan to give them more time to think.
"Of course, if you do this, the Ming Dynasty will not treat the heroes badly, this expedition to Mangyingli, this governor captured tens of thousands of remnants of Mangyingli, these are sinners, the Ming Dynasty will not let go of sinners easily, but all the tribes who are willing to move to a new station according to the will of the Ming Dynasty can go to the Governor to receive a thousand young men and a thousand young women as compensation, at the same time, the Ming Dynasty will also give you a sum of money to settle down, so that you can establish a new station, what do you think?"
Matteo Ricci looked at Xiao Ruxun in surprise, he didn't expect Xiao Ruxun to leave those men and women for this purpose.
Xiao Ruxun looked at Matteo Ricci, frowned, and asked, "Why don't you translate?" ”
Matteo Ricci nodded hurriedly and said, "I see!" ”
Matteo Ricci hurriedly translated it to Brown, Brown was surprised, and then translated it to these heads, and when these heads listened, everyone swept away the previous decadence and suddenly became very energetic.
Population is a very important strategic resource at all times, these tribes are unable to compete with the Burmese because of their small population, and now that the Burmese regime is over, they are still a vulnerable group, and they will continue to be ruled, and they will rule, and they will change places, and it is so easy to change places where they have lived for decades? Will it be happy?
Apparently not.
But everything is negotiable, and as long as there are enough interests, there is nothing that cannot be negotiated.
A thousand strong men and a thousand strong women, for these large and small tribes whose population is not very large, it is still very tempting, and the large tribes of hundreds of thousands of people may not covet this population, but this has a fatal attraction to those small tribes with a population of hundreds of thousands of people, men can use it to work, women can do more other things, and more importantly, they are Burmese.
The Burmese people who have been riding on their heads for decades are full of outright hatred for these people, and they have dreamed day and night for decades about giving these Burmese people a little good-looking, and now that they finally have the opportunity, how can they let it go?
Not to mention the temptation brought by the increase in population of 2,000 to small tribes, the catharsis of hatred is also very necessary. This is especially true of these leaders who are under more oppression and mental pressure, so that the breathing of these leaders is starting to be a little shorter.
Xiao Ruxun hung out a map.
"From this area to this area, it is a better place for you to live in the Ming Dynasty, warm and humid, less people and more land, you can contact the Ming Dynasty to the east, and you can contact the rest of the more countries to the west, and it is on a traffic artery, and the future development will be very good, this is an area in exchange for your original residence, which will be your autonomous region, and you only need to pay taxes and tribute to the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty will provide you with protection and uphold justice for you."
Xiao Ruxun explained: "If you are willing, you can come to me to sign up now, and then when you go back to the tribe, you can take away two thousand remnants, and you can also get a settlement fee." ”
The purpose of Xiao Ruxun's move is mainly to target a group of people living in the south near the sea, such as the large and small dozen tribes living near Yangon, these must be migrated, and when the Han immigrants come, they will mainly live around the three cities of Sunshine Bago and Naypyidaw, creating a commercial trade route from Yunnan to the sea, so that the Ming Dynasty can officially start contact with the Western world.
This is an exchange between civilizations and civilizations, Xiao Ruxun does not intend to involve those natives as well, just let them remain ignorant, they do not need and are not allowed to contact more advanced civilizations to start the evolution of civilization, and for the tribes that can refuse the temptation to evolve now, Xiao Ruxun will set out to eradicate them!
Looking at the appearance of these tribal leaders, it seems that some of them have already had an intention, a few are whispering to the people around them, probably discussing the pros and cons of doing so, and some people have their eyes closed, not knowing what they are thinking, Xiao Ruxun is not in a hurry, drinking tea, waiting for them to make a choice.
In fact, for these heads, the choice is not difficult to do, when the interests have reached the requirements, the choice is actually very easy to make, and this is also related to the first step of the Ming Dynasty relationship can be good, if it can be done well, it can lay a solid foundation for the future road, if you come up and the Ming Dynasty to do it, the Ming Dynasty will give them a good face in the future?
Seven or eight small tribes, you look at me, I look at you, one by one stood up and came to Xiao Ruxun, bowed to Xiao Ruxun to show submission, and said that he was very willing to change the station, live in a new place, Xiao Ruxun was overjoyed, immediately announced that they would be rewarded with enough slaves and property, and privately rewarded a batch of silver as encouragement, welcoming them to actively move closer to the Ming Dynasty and become the first batch of dogs in the Ming Dynasty.
Then at this time, some people put forward different opinions, a tribal leader stood up, and muttered, Matteo Ricci said that the general meaning is that their tribe has a larger population, and it is very troublesome to migrate, and the small tribe of tens of thousands of these people is of course easy to migrate, and we are willing to migrate, but if the things given to us are the same as the things given to them, then how can these leaders go back and explain to their own people?
This shows that these leaders are unwilling to go against the Ming Dynasty, but they are really not interested enough, and they can't go back to persuade the people in the tribe, it is difficult to reach a unified understanding, and they can't better deceive the poor ghosts below, so they are not happy and ask to be treated differently, Xiao Ruxun asked, the tribe of the head of this tribe has a population of about more than 200,000 people, and the other three or four big tribes also have more than 300,000, 100,000 and 200,000, all in all, the population is much more than the small tribe of 780,000 560,000 just now, it is true that it cannot be treated in unison.
Xiao Ruxun said, okay, you tribes with a population of less than 100,000, 1,000 men and 1,000 women, 100,000 to 200,000, 2,000 men and 2,000 women, 200,000 to 300,000, 2,500 men and 2,500 women, more than 300,000, 3,000 men and 3,000 women, those who are willing to migrate, and heavy rewards!
The only tribal leader in these tribes with a population of more than 300,000 is the target of the reward, and the head man, who is about forty years old, blinked his eyes and said that this matter is too big, he can't be the master alone, he has to go back and ask his people, and said that he will go back and ask now, Xiao Ruxun did not embarrass him, and allowed him to leave immediately to ask.
Just kidding, six thousand slaves, Xiao Ruxun moved out all his old books, even counting the batch of prisoners of war who were handed over to the Siamese for custody before, if he couldn't take this big tribe, then he would really have to use troops.
This is a large tribe living in the west of Yangon, the population is second only to the Burmese, and it is the key target of the Mangyinglong Mangyingli era, and it is very badly suppressed, and it also hates the Burmese regime very much, but after all, the population is 300,000, and Xiao Ruxun is not very willing to use troops to exterminate them.
It is best to negotiate with them, throw them to the border with India, move from the south to the west, the Ming mainly builds from the south to the east and the north, and builds a buffer zone between Southeast Asia and South Asia, he does not plan to have any contact with India for the time being, and it is also very good to place these natives there as a buffer.
These are more sincere and willing to obey the instructions of the Ming Dynasty, and actively move closer to the Ming Dynasty, you can give some benefits in the future, and then recruit soldiers, and when appropriate, you can also pull together the Ming Dynasty, engage in intermarriage or something, assimilation and assimilation, give the Ming singles soldiers a little welfare, and those who are willing to be obedient are good children, and the father of the Ming Dynasty will not fight.
But some disobedient thorns have to be dealt with well.
For example, there is a tribal leader who is a little young, looks like he is twenty or thirty years old, and he stands up and says that their people have lived there for decades, although the number is not large, only seventy or eighty thousand, but they also regard it as their home, and as soon as the Ming Dynasty comes, they will leave their homeland, what is the difference between this and the previous Mangying? Isn't this just like the group of people in Mangying?
There were seven or eight tribal leaders around who agreed with each other, and it should be a group of people.
Xiao Ruxun explained very calmly.
"The biggest difference between Da Ming and Mang Yingli is that you can still stand here and talk to me, if it is Mang Yingli, you are dead now."
Taking a sip of tea, Xiao Ruxun smiled slightly, this smile made the young head man shudder a little, but he still insisted on his own ideas, and did not agree to relocate, and there were five tribes that insisted on not migrating like him, two tribes of more than 100,000 people and three tribes of tens of thousands of people, adding up to six who were unwilling, and four said that they wanted to go back and discuss with the clansmen, and there were only twelve tribes who directly agreed.
That night, the heads of the twelve tribes who promised to migrate the tribe were left behind by Xiao Ruxun and received a warm hospitality, Xiao Ruxun encouraged them to actively move closer to the Ming Dynasty, so that they could get more rewards and more preferential policy treatment from the Ming Dynasty, and the leaders were also very happy to express their willingness to unite around the Ming Empire with the Ming Emperor as the core and serve the Ming Empire.
After three rounds of drinking, seeing that everyone was a little drunk, Xiao Ruxun sighed and started his routine.
"You are all optimistic about the Governor, you are all willing to surrender to the Ming Dynasty, the Governor sees it in his eyes, remembers your loyalty, but the Governor is very dissatisfied with the fact that some people block the rules set by the Ming Emperor for their own selfish desires, such news is transmitted back to the Ming Dynasty, once the Ming Emperor is angry, your group of people can not get benefits, once the Ming Emperor is angry, the Governor can not stop it."
The leaders looked at each other, suddenly realizing the seriousness of the problem.
There are people in the territory just laid down, who are unwilling to cooperate with the Ming Dynasty, and throw off the face of the Ming Emperor and the Admiral, the Ming Admiral is not happy, and His Majesty the Emperor is not happy, and when the time comes, His Majesty the Emperor will be angry and order to punish these people, and it will inevitably not implicate them.
They honestly want to live a good life with Daming, but those thorns are unwilling.
Xiao Ruxun also said that he heard that there seems to be a marriage between various tribes, in case His Majesty the Emperor decrees to sit together, each of you will not be able to escape, and the governor is also powerless!
Looking at Xiao Ruxun's slightly drunk face, the leaders didn't think he was lying, so they hurriedly asked for countermeasures.
"The solution is to destroy their tribe and divide their property and population!"
Under the cold moonlight, Xiao Ruxun's eyes were as piercing as if ice had entered his body.
