The leaders of various ministries have expressed their opinions, and Zhu Youxiao is in a good mood now.
To put them at ease, he added:
"I am also doing it for your own good. When you get to the pass, your tribe will be the people of my Ming Dynasty. My people, I will make you have enough food and clothing."
"You are helpless here. Maybe one day Jian Nu and Lin Dan Batur will lead their troops to destroy you. I don't want to see such a thing happen."
The leaders of various ministries also knew that what the emperor said was true, but they were not mentally prepared for the move to the south. To put it more simply, they felt that their future was dark.
But their strength is too weak. There are less than 10,000 young male knights in the entire tribe. No matter who they fight, their chances of winning are extremely slim.
"Great Emperor, I have one more question!"
"Say it!"
Wuyun took a deep breath and said:
"What if we follow the emperor to the pass, what if there is a conflict with the Han people? Will the emperor send officials? What will Ming officials do to us?"
Zhu Youxiao looked at the leader of the Aohan tribe and didn't expect him to think of this problem.
"You can rest assured that I have always been a helper to the husband rather than the bride. I just said that you are all my subjects and I will not treat you differently."
"You will not live with the Han people. I will enclose a piece of land for your tribe. This land will always belong to your tribe. If you really encounter injustice, you can directly report it to me and I will help you."
You handle it!"
After Zhu Youxiao finished speaking, he took another sip of wine, wanting to see his reaction.
After holding it in for a long time, the big leader Wu Yun finally said:
"Thank you, great emperor!"
"But do you still have any doubts? If any of you want to ask, just ask and I will answer them for you one by one."
"Back to the Great Emperor, I have no doubts!"
Zhu Youxiao raised his glass and said:
"Okay, the business is over, so there's no need to be polite. Speaking of which, this is still your territory. You won't come back unless you get drunk tonight!"
After the banquet, the leaders of the Aohan tribe had a bitter look on their faces when they left, but the father and son Jirigela and Ahelai were on the contrary. They were talking and laughing.
Zhu Youxiao knew what these leaders were thinking, and he also knew that they were not of the same mind as him, but he didn't care, as long as he took them to the pass.
"Your Majesty, why are you so sincere with them? These Mongolians cannot be trusted. It is better to let the general go and kill them all to avoid future troubles!"
Zhu Youxiao glanced at Ma Xianglin and said in his heart, is this guy addicted to killing?
Ma Xianglin's idea is very simple. He has never fought with the Mongols before, let alone dealt with them. He only knows that the war between the Ming Dynasty and Mongolia has never stopped. For them southerners, Mongolia is forever.
enemy.
"What do you know? The reason why I win over them is because they are of great use. Don't mess around!"
Although Ma Xianglin was puzzled, he could only bow and respond.
"Your Majesty, Rui Zheng is right. After all, these Mongols are not of the same mind as us. Although they have surrendered now, there is no guarantee that they will not make small moves in the future. We must be on guard!"
Zhu Youxiao smiled and said:
"Don't worry, this kind of thing won't happen, because they have no choice!"
The reason why Zhu Youxiao is so confident is that he concludes that the Aohan tribe has no way out. A small tribe like them, living in the cracks, can only follow the rules of the game for the strong.
They were already at odds with Horqin and the Three Guards of Liaodong. Although their relationship with Lin Danhan was not good, at least Lin Danhan only gave them little shoes in secret.
But things are different now. Lin Dan Khan's home base has basically been raided by him. I believe that his tens of thousands of cavalry will not gain much benefit from going south. If these people don't follow him, they are likely to become the target of Lin Dan Khan's venting.
Their only way to survive is to hug their own thighs, and only their own thighs are thick enough and strong enough.
In this era, it is impossible for the nomadic tribes to be completely conquered by force. Even if this tribe is eliminated, new nomadic tribes will be born.
Huang Taiji's strategy for Mongolia was very good. He established relations with them and then completely tied their interests together. After such a set of operations, they were basically tied to a rope.
Zhu Youxiao felt that he could learn from it. As for marriage, he could also consider it, but it was not the kind of you marry me and I marry you, but unilaterally.
Wu Yun and other leaders quickly held an emergency meeting after returning to their base. This matter was really important to them.
"Everyone, what do you think?"
A head of a thousand households said immediately:
"Chief, this is too sudden. Is there any fraud in it?"
Wu Yun frowned and said:
"Probably not. The troops brought by the emperor are the elite of the Ming Dynasty. They were able to easily sweep away the Kalaqin and Wengniute tribes. This shows that their combat power is extremely high. Moreover, their morale is so high now that they don't need to play such tricks at all!"
They also felt that what the big leader said was right, and it seemed that the emperor was indeed sincere.
But they still couldn't accept it for a while. They didn't have much resistance to surrendering, but they were all uneasy about moving south.
Seeing that these people were still hesitating, Jirigela threw the bowl down and said loudly:
"Didn't you all want to live a rich life before? Why are you acting like a pussy now that you have the chance?"
"If we don't follow the emperor and move south to the Ming Dynasty, will we still have room to survive here?"
Ahilai also added:
"Dear leaders, Lin Dan Khan's strength has been greatly damaged after this battle. The grassland is destined to never be peaceful again. Although the Ming Dynasty has experienced several major defeats in Liaodong, it is a big country in the Central Plains after all!"
"Although today's emperor is young, he is bold and ambitious. He will surely pacify Liaodong in the future, and may even conquer the grasslands again in the north. If we don't choose now, we may become the ghosts of the Ming army.
!”
Wu Yun looked at the young man and said:
"Ah Hai Lai, you must have known a lot about the emperor since you have been with him for so long. Tell us what kind of person this emperor is!"
Ahilai immediately told them what happened in the Ming Dynasty some time ago, and these leaders were frightened when they heard it.
Less than a month after he took the throne, he began to massacre corrupt officials and confiscate their homes, reorganize the army, dismantle the Beijing camp, promote capable ministers, and personally formulate the plan and strategy for the Northern Expedition. Although he only took the throne for half a year, he has done a lot.
"According to your statement, this emperor is really great, no worse than his grandfather!"
"It seems that we made the right choice this time, so everyone can rest assured!"
The leaders present were heartbroken after hearing this.
Wu Yun said quite relaxedly:
"Now that everyone knows everything, go back and tell your tribe to prepare to move south!"
