Chapter 363: Mid-Autumn Night, Wolf Killing Banquet (7)
To release the captured Han Chinese, Liu Xing will give Xie Nu a batch of enough grain for his soldiers and horses to eat for half a year.
For Xenu, this is a mutually beneficial thing, and he is happy to accept it.
After all, as long as he claims to be the king and stands on his own, the future of the Great Yan Kingdom will inevitably rely on the strong weapons of the Great Song Dynasty to help him be optimistic about this territory that is not too big, but it is the foundation for him.
Since he had to rely on the army of the Great Song Dynasty to help him, even if he didn't have those military rations, Xie Nu knew in his heart that he could only release the hundreds of thousands of Central Plains people who were detained in Xijing.
Because if he didn't let those people go, he wouldn't go directly to Dajin after the Great Song army entered the future Dayan Kingdom, but for those compatriots to come to him first and force him to let people go.
Instead of waiting for someone to knock on the door and then release people, it is better to take the initiative to release people when they see a good situation, and they can also sell a favor to Liu Xing......
The authorization and licensing system was turned into a formal license and licensing system, which made Jiagu Xie Nu refreshed at the same time, after listening to Liu Xing's detailed introduction to the industrial and commercial business license, he finally understood why even Zong Ze, Zhang Suo, and Hu Anguo in the Northern Dynasty were submissive to this young man who was about to be weak.
Those who have great talents can serve the public, and those who are both civil and military can serve the public. After Liu Xing explained the details of the business license of the completion business, Xie Nu secretly said in his heart: Why did such a civil and military all-rounder, a genius who can rejuvenate the country and establish the country in Wuke, fall in the Central Plains?
If a person like him falls in the place of the Jurchens, I believe that it will also make the Dajin Kingdom stronger. If he was born in the land of Saibei, I am afraid that the Dajin Kingdom would not need to rush into the Central Plains with iron hooves and blades like now, so that millions of Jurchens can live a good life......
No matter what Xie Nu thinks. Liu Xing is a Han person, and he is a Han person in his past and present life. This is a fact that God predestined, and no one can change it.
It is precisely because Liu Xing is Han Chinese. It also determined the inevitability of the next two items: the sinicization of the Jurchens and the control of the minerals of the Great Yan Kingdom by the Northern Dynasties.
Why is this a condition of necessity? The reason is simple.
In this day and age, minerals are the foundation of a strong weapon. Whether it is iron, cold iron, or dark iron, it is all iron after all. Although their composition is different, it is all minerals in the final analysis.
With the technology of iron, the Red Turban Army of that day could beat the golden soldiers who were several times their own with firearms, and it was only then that Liu Xing's sudden rise turned into an unequal war in which firearms swept cold weapons.
As for cold iron, it is only found in bitter cold places. The hometown of Yanmen is just such a barren area with few mineral impurities. A mineral land where cold iron can be easily extracted.
As long as he possessed a large amount of cold iron, Liu Xing firmly believed that with the wisdom of Yelu Bashen and his skilled craftsmen, he would definitely be able to raise the foundation of today's musket and artillery manufacturing to a new height.
In that case, it is really possible that he will no longer use muskets as a scarce weapon in the near future, and can only be equipped with a very small number of main forces.
Instead, it was easy to make all the troops of the Xinwang Army of the Great Song Dynasty equipped with the Jingkang Type 3 breech gun that was in the trial production stage and had a range of up to 400 steps.
The Jingkang three-style musket that is being trial-produced is the first batch of 100-shot new products made by Liu Xing after drawing drawings from memory, Yelu Bashen and hundreds of skilled craftsmen.
In terms of range, although it is only 400 steps, the biggest advantage compared with the Jingkang II is that it uses magazine loading. Each magazine can be pressed into five bullets at a time.
In addition to the lack of range. In fact, it has preliminarily met the requirements of Liu Xing's vision of imitating the German Mauser rifle and the Chinese formal rifle in later generations.
Once a large amount of cold iron was transported into the Hunter Valley, Liu Xing firmly believed in the ability of Yelu Bashen. It is completely possible to continuously and quickly mass produce Jingkang three types under the condition of sufficient raw materials. As a result, the combat power of the Xinwang army will become even stronger after receiving the support of Jingkang Sanshi.
It is precisely for this reason that Liu Xing determined that he would not discuss whether to turn the mine in Yanmen's hometown into a raw material supply place for the former master of the Hunter Valley Palace.
And in the face of Liu Xing's strong attitude, Jiagu Xie Nu also had no choice. He knew very well that even if Liu Xing did not come to forcibly obtain the mining rights, there was no way for the mines in this area of Xijing to find people who knew how to mine.
Rather than leaving those minerals idle, it is better to hand over all the mines to Da Song, who has a large amount of mining labor, and it is more comfortable for him to sit back and enjoy the success and be a mine boss who shares the benefits......
As for the future Jurchens of the Great Yan Kingdom, and even the people of the Khitan, Xi and other ethnic groups with Sinicization education to make the children and grandchildren of those people become Han Chinese, Jiagu Xie Nu's subjective idea is not a big deal.
He himself is a person who likes Han culture, and his favorite woman is Han Chinese. Even his sons and daughters have received Han culture and education since childhood.
Xie Nu's bottom of his heart is: no matter what culture you use to educate my people, it will only make my people more civilized. As long as I can let my future people know how to write and hyphenate, they will be able to give full play to their wisdom and help my future Great Yan Kingdom become strong.
As for you, Liu Xing, want my people to forget that they are Jurchens, Khitans, and Kumoxi, hehe, that can't be done just by giving education.
You have your culture as a sword, and I have my Jurchen national spirit and tradition as the foundation. Come on, let's see who can fight whom, and who can finally master the soul of the people of the future Great Yan Kingdom......
An alliance, an alliance that looked like it was going to be dominated by Liu Xing, had its own careful thoughts from the beginning. If it were someone else, they would have thought that this kind of alliance with different minds was unstable.
However, Liu Xing is no one else, Liu Xing is Liu Xing. Liu Xing would not care about the little caution in Xie Nu's heart, because Liu Xing knew very well that with the strategy formulated by himself, Ma Kuo, and Hui before the implementation, it would not take twenty years for the entire future of the Great Yan Kingdom to have a real sense of the Dongyi tribes.
The rest will only be a new ethnic group that has been completely sinicized and began to identify itself as a Han people, just like the original Xianbei.
So when Xie Nu accepted all the conditions, Liu Xing immediately asked Jia Gu Yu to write a copy of the "Thirteen Articles of the Song Yan Alliance", and quickly signed their respective names with Jia Gu Xie Nu......
Just after Liu Xing and Jiagu Xie Nu signed the covenant, they were just about to raise a glass to celebrate, when suddenly there was a rush of footsteps from under the wooden building.
Following the prestige, when Liu Xing's gaze fell on the staircase, the owner of this wooden building, Orion Ge Erzhuang, hurriedly walked up with a wolf on his shoulder.
As soon as he saw the two nobles, Ge Erzhuang grinned: "Two great nobles, I just went out to think about bringing some good food for the two of you." Hey, I really didn't expect that a lone wolf suddenly appeared in this barren mountain and wilderness. I followed it for more than an hour, and after I was sure that it was a lone wolf, I called the two of them back, and later asked my wife to make a 'fried whole wolf' for the two of them to taste.
