After arranging the resettlement of the plundered Han people, Li Rubai asked Batubuhe to gather together a dozen men in charge of the entire camp, as well as some elders with some prestige from several larger tribes under the Tumote tribe.

.

"I will make it clear to you first. The most fundamental reason why this dispatch of troops allowed the leaders of Tumote so much time to prepare and escape is because our emperor did not intend to exterminate the clan or plunder.

I came here for the permanent peace of the grassland and the future well-being of the Mongolians. I, the Ming Dynasty, passed these words to you through the Han merchants traveling on the grassland a few months ago."

After Li Rubai finished speaking, the group of Mongolians below looked at me and I looked at you. After a while, Batu Buhe stood up and said cautiously: "Yes, Mr. Li is right. Although the Han people

Shang could not convey these words to all the tribes and herdsmen, but all Taiji, including those of us who are still useful on the grassland, knew it. However, the Han and Mongolian tribes have been fighting each other for hundreds of years.

The emperor's benevolence is definitely not something that these Han merchants can convince the Taiji people just by telling them something."

"That's true." Li Rubai sat on the main seat with a golden sword and took a sip of kumiss: "In this case, I also brought a set of machines this time. You can go and have a look. Anyway, I have to install this machine recently.

A group of Han people, I won't be able to leave for a while. After you see the machine and talk to me again, you will know that what I said is true."

In fact, it didn't take a few days. On the second day, when the group of Mongolians completely watched the wool go through various steps such as washing, degreasing, needle combing, thinning, winding, etc., it turned into wool. Then under the hands of skilled craftsmen,

How quickly they turned into pieces of clothing parts or blankets in their hands, they were all so excited that they couldn't help themselves. Then they swarmed to Li Rubai's tent and asked for an audience.

"Master Li, this is really a miracle!"

"Yes, the Han people are smart! Wool is everywhere on our grasslands and has very little use. If wool can be turned into clothing, then the people on our grasslands will definitely live a much better life than before!

"

"Yes, at least during the white disaster (the snow falls too hard and lasts too long), the elderly and children will not have to be thrown out to freeze to death."

"Master Li, why don't you let the Han merchants go into various tribes to teach us this method in advance?"

"Hahaha..." Looking at the group of Mongolians with red eyes below, Li Rubai laughed heartily for a while: "Everyone, don't you yourselves know what the virtues of your Mongolians are? If we directly

Introduce this technology to you Mongolians, then think about it, who will benefit in the end? And careerists like the so-called Khutuktu Khan who always want to restore the prestige of the Mongolian and Yuan Empire, have

Will this technology drive you south again after you save enough money by relying on wool?"

After these words were spoken, although the Mongolians below instinctively wanted to refute, they all felt that they lacked confidence - after all, men on the grasslands are still simple, and it is really impossible for them to tell lies with their eyes open.

Seeing the Mongolian below who was blushing but silent, Li Rubai slowly said again: "My emperor means that your extremely ambitious Khutuktu Khan must be killed. The difference is that either

Either he was killed by our Ming Dynasty warriors, or he surrendered and became an apartment in Beijing. Otherwise, if such people are on the grassland, my emperor will not be able to sleep well, and even ordinary people like you will not be able to live a good life.

.Well, after we bring down this ambitious man, especially after you Mongolian Taijis have seen the military power of our Ming Dynasty and put away all those thoughts that shouldn’t be had, the grassland will usher in

Peace. When the time comes, I, the Ming Dynasty, will not only buy wool and yarn from you, but we will also buy your cattle, sheep, horses, cheese, yogurt, etc... Then after you get the money, you can buy rice and noodles from us Han people in the Ming Dynasty.

, vegetables, tea, cloth, silk, and even porcelain and furniture. If all the tribes on the grassland simply accept my canonization as the Ming Emperor, then we will all be one family. In the future, if you encounter white disasters or other disasters, please ask us for relief and use my emperor’s gift.

Don’t you have a compassionate heart and accept it? You don’t have to abandon the elderly and young children!”

At this point, Li Rubai spread his hands: "Isn't this great?"

Although the Mongolians below looked at me and I looked at you, they did not say anything. But Li Rubai knew that these guys were completely tempted.

From the perspective of future generations, apart from being a little colder and a little drier, everything else in Mongolia is good. Not to mention anything else, just here in Baotou, there is everything needed to complete the first industrial revolution.

Almost resources - and the quantity is huge, the quality is excellent!

However, this was the seventeenth century. At this time, the Mongolians could not effectively utilize the underground treasures here. On the contrary, after more than two hundred years of economic blockade in the Ming Dynasty, the Mongolians were really so poor that they only had cattle and sheep.

.

Apart from anything else, for a nation that mainly eats meat, it’s okay if they don’t know about tea. Once used, it becomes a necessity. In the past, tea alone could completely wipe out the Mongolians’ small funds.

Blot dry.

But what can the men on the grassland do? There is no product that can be sold stably in the long term! Cattle and sheep can be sold, but compared with the tea that we drink every day, those cows and sheep will take more than a year to be put on the market.

It really grows too slowly.

Therefore, it cannot be said that men in the grassland like to rob by nature: if there is a choice, who is willing to risk his life to become a robber? After all, being a robber may be beaten to death by the Ming army. If the man on the grassland dies, his

Wives and children often become the property of others. Even if they are lucky enough not to be beaten to death by the Ming army. Under the current system, most of the things that everyone has fought hard to grab have to be handed over to nobles at all levels? Ordinary herdsmen,

Isn’t it the same poverty?

Well now, if there is such a thing as wool, then not only half of the Mongolian people: women can give full play to their value. The entire Mongolia has products that can be continuously and stably exported. This can completely improve the living conditions of the entire nation.

Something!

Seeing that the Mongolians below were so excited, Li Rubai felt very proud.

Humph, these civil servants in Beijing have always looked down upon us military generals. That is to say, the emperor has been supporting us military men these years, and these guys have a better attitude in terms of face. But this general knows that this is just a good look, but he still feels that in his heart

Our generals are vulgar and illiterate and look down on us.

Like this time, the emperor did not send civil servants to supervise the army, but there were imperial censors who came one after another. He said that in this expedition to Mongolia, the priority was to attack the heart and the city. If he did not send civil servants, I was afraid that the generals would destroy the emperor's intentions.

.Bah! Let’s not talk about the West Route Army, which had to fight with hard bridges and hard horses, let’s talk about the three commanders here. Needless to say, Governor Cao, the most beloved general in the army today, is both civil and military! Dong!

Although Du Laiqing on the road is a reckless man who only knows how to fight, you can't stand him with a guy like Xiao Bozhi who is so versatile. As for my general? After all, I and Brother Rusong were both Mr. Wen Chang's apprentices! Although Mr. Wen Chang said

He has been just a civil servant all his life, but he single-handedly supported Hu Zongxian to pacify the Japanese pirates who had been plundering the southeastern coast for decades! Isn't he much better than you Jinshi who write colorful articles and blindly catch real things?

After a few minutes of silence in the big tent, Li Rubai looked at the Mongolian people below who had made up their minds, and simply spoke: "Everyone, although you are the people who have been abandoned by the Tumote army, you can also be considered among the Mongolians."

People of some status, especially these old people, it is said that when you were young, you were very talkative in your respective tribes. Therefore, you should understand that on the grassland, the most important thing is fists.

Therefore, if we, the Ming Dynasty, don’t give your Khan and Taiji a punch first, how will we do this wool business?”

Seeing the Mongolians below nodding their heads, Li Rubai laughed heartily: "Okay, having said that, everyone, please teach me how to quickly and accurately capture Tumut's northward migration team. Don't worry, I will be the Ming Dynasty this time.

Merit is not judged by head. Instead, the Mongolian tribe responsible for the first army to start a stable wool business will be the first to do so. Therefore, this battle will definitely be fought, and there will definitely be casualties. However, as long as

Once we can get rid of those stupid Taijis in your Tumut upper class as soon as possible, who are determined to follow Hu Duntu's dream of restoring the Great Yuan Empire, peace and good days will come soon."

After saying these words, Li Rubai moved his back to the chair behind him: "Everyone, when I finish speaking, it's your turn."

After the Mongolians below made eye contact with each other for a while, a white-haired old man stood up tremblingly: "Mr. Li, we Mongolians cannot live without cattle and sheep, and cattle and sheep cannot live without pasture, and pasture cannot live without river water.

Therefore, although the Tumut tribe has moved north for almost a month, it is still not difficult to catch up with them."

"Yes, Mr. Li." An old man stood up: "Last winter, there was only one snowfall on the grassland. Although too much snowfall is a white disaster, but too little snowfall means there is not enough snow for grass seeds.

The water is moist, but the growth is not good. The cattle, sheep and horses have been hungry all winter, eating sparse pastures and not getting enough fat, so they are forced to cross the desert and migrate north. There are countless cattle and sheep along this way.

The horses will fall dead on the road. If you want to pursue them at this time, follow the water source and follow the vultures, it is always right!"

"Hahaha~ This is like having an old man in a family, it's like having a treasure! In the words of our emperor, we Han people respect the old and love the young, because children are the future, and the elderly are the treasure house of life experience! Those Tumote
Chapter completed!
