Gao Ming was shocked. He didn't expect that this white-faced scholar had some knowledge.
"Yes, Yuan and Meng have learned from their mistakes not long ago. I really don't want to see my Chinese children being ravaged by aliens again," Gao Ming nodded.
Zhou Yuanqi came to the ground and solemnly said, "Yuan Qi admires the young master's heart." Zhou Yuanqi truly admired it, so he naturally started to think about the feasibility and other issues.
After a pause, Zhou Yuanqi continued to ask: "May I ask, young master, what is your ambition?"
In fact, there are many opinions on this issue. If you talk about it from a big perspective, it is naturally about the long term. If you talk about it from a small perspective, it can also be said that you want to get ahead.
But Zhou Yuanqi's question was not about his personal ambition. It was a supplement to the previous question.
The previous question was, of course, about the unification of the Jurchens. He was asking Gao Ming what step he wanted to take with the Jurchens, whether to just divide them internally, or to exterminate them all and exterminate their race.
Gao Ming understood the meaning of this sentence. He was not a murderous person, so he said: "The Jurchen tribes are also my subjects under the Ming Dynasty, and they should be governed by means."
Zhou Yuanqi felt a little relieved. In this case, he had a plan in mind. He sorted out his thoughts and said:
"To prevent the Jurchen tribes from unifying, I have here the 'three methods of governing the barbarians'. The first is to create hatred among the tribes and support a small force to split their unity. The second is to assassinate the talented people in each tribe and support the mediocre people to take charge. The third is to put them in power."
The Jurchens migrated to the Central Plains, allowing them to leave the grasslands, go to towns, get off their horses, and go to the fields."
Gao Ming thought about Zhou Yuanqi's three methods of governing the barbarians one by one. The more he thought about it, the more he recognized its profound meaning. First of all, the first one divided the Jurchens internally. This is to make a force fall into a situation of internal strife and internal strife. Until the internal peace cannot be achieved, the Jurchens will be unable to use external troops.
.
The second one is to assassinate the talented and support the mediocre, which is to support the puppet forces and control them from the inside to achieve the effect of controlling the general trend.
The third method, Gao Ming, has also thought about it. Once these nomads on horseback are placed in the prosperous areas of the Central Plains with city walls and food at their feet, it will be equivalent to using culture to corrupt their nature and assimilate them at the root. To achieve this effect
Maybe not in one generation, but in three generations.
Gao Ming couldn't help but look at Zhou Yuanqi with strange eyes, and said: "These opinions don't seem to me like things that a prostitute like you should think about."
Zhou Yuanqi looked around, Gao Ming understood, and said: "Don't worry and speak frankly, besides you, I only have Zhuo Feilong nearby."
"I don't dare to deceive you, young master. This subordinate is a disciple of the high school Xuan, Gao Shengfu. Because he was reprimanded, my disciples and I were also implicated," Zhou Yuan said curiously.
"High School Xuan?" Those were the first assistants in recent years, and those were the ones who were reviled. Gao Ming counted them one by one, and thought of a person in his mind, and asked: "Could it be Gao Gong during the Mu Zong period? Mr. Gao Ming
"
"Exactly, I thought that I had studied hard for ten years and was full of enthusiasm and was highly appreciated by the teacher, but it was just my fate. Fortunately, in the past, I did a few years of research on 'qi science' with the teacher, so I followed the Jianghu
I know the heroes well, so I came here to find a gang leader."
"By the way, Mr. Gao has always been kind." Gao Ming immediately became very interested in this expert who advocated Qi science.
"Alas, Teacher, he has been depressed every day since he was dismissed from office. He died of illness a few years ago."
"It's such a pity." What a pity. Zhou Yuanqi didn't say anything, so the two of them remained silent for a while.
Gao Ming really doesn't know this specific history. Historically, Gao Gong was the advocate of "Qiology" in the Ming Dynasty, advocating the theory of the structure of the universe with "Qi" as the core. His theory is called "Qiology".
It's normal for Gao Ming not to know about this Qi science. In his previous history, he only deliberately understood the areas that interested him, and naturally ignored the others that he wasn't interested in.
Gao Ming was not ashamed to ask, "What is this 'qi science'? Is it the inner qi that we martial artists practice?"
"Yes, and no. I say yes, because the inner family's true energy is also included in 'qi science', but 'qi science' covers all aspects, not only martial arts, but also medicine, feng shui, articles, astrology, and governing the country. In other related aspects, 'qi science' has put forward corresponding explanations and understandings."
"Oh" Gao Ming immediately looked up to Gao Gong. This is a complete theory. The person who has been able to write books and explain it since ancient times must be a great sage. But why is Gao Gong so unknown?
This is due to Gao Ming's half-baked historical knowledge. First of all, Gao Gong played an important role in promoting the development of the Ming Dynasty. Secondly, Gao Gong himself was a good reader and his writing was not good at diction, but it was profound and powerful.
He was a famous politician in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the founder of the great reforms in the late Longqing period and the great reform in the early Yuan Dynasty in Wanli Dynasty. He was also an outstanding thinker, a critic of Neo-Confucianism and Psychology, and an advocate of Practical Studies and Qi Studies. He made important historical contributions to the social development and academic progress at that time.
Gao Gong not only made outstanding achievements in academic thinking, but also had extremely advanced ideas in handling foreign affairs. During the reign of Emperor Longqing, he provided advice and suggestions to pacify several border disputes among aliens.
That's why Zhou Yuanqi was able to quickly come up with strategies to prevent the Jurchens from reunifying. In fact, members of their party are extremely professional in diplomacy, foreign affairs and other matters.
Gao Ming didn't know these things, but it didn't stop him from discovering talents. Zhou Yuanqi could definitely help him solve many foreign affairs if he used them well.
"Yuan Qi, do you know Jurchen and other foreign languages?" Gao Ming asked tentatively again, and at this time the title changed.
"My subordinates are fluent in Tatar, Jurchen, Wala, and Japanese Yi languages." Speaking of foreign languages, Zhou Yuanqi suddenly felt confident.
"Done it!" Gao Ming yelled in his heart. Since God gave him such a talent, he shouldn't use it in vain.
Having made the decision, Gao Ming was not in a hurry to leave. First, in order to avoid the sight of Songshan and others, he moved all the Yushan Gang to another place. Anyway, with the guidance of Zhang Heizi and other locals, it would be easy to find another house.
Ask Zhuo Feilong to restrain the people in the gang and not to go out and about at will in the near future.
Gao Ming had a serious discussion with Zhou Yuanqi behind closed doors for several days.
At this time, Gao Ming knew one thing, that is, his wife Hachi was still a serious border official in the Ming Dynasty. He was an official, while Gao Ming was a civilian, and he was protected by Jianghu forces like Yizi Huijianmen. There was no way he could go against others alone.
The matter here has come to an end. Songshan has lost two eunuchs, and Yizi Huijianmen has lost two elders. All that is needed to do this is to spread the news, and the two factions must not be anxious about the beauty. The trouble will be diverted to the east, and Gao Ming is just in time to escape.
As for Zhuo Feilong, it is not appropriate to show up for the time being. It happens that Gao Ming is going north to the outside of the Great Wall. With Zhuo Feilong as an undercover agent, he can use his status as the first disciple of the second generation of the Yizi Huijian Sect to cover his activities in the Hachi territory.
All the way to the north, eating the wind and drinking the dew. The mountains and rivers of the motherland, the scenery of the northern country, the vast mountains, lush green, Gao Ming and others rode on their horses and arrived in Liaodong nine days later.
Although the Jurchens here are still scattered, the Ming Dynasty established the Protectorate here and divided them into three parts: Jianzhou Jurchens, Haixi Jurchens and East China Sea Jurchens.
Jianzhou Jurchens are distributed in Mudanjiang, Suifenhe and Changbai Mountain areas, Haixi Jurchens are distributed in the Songhua River Basin, and East China Sea Jurchens are distributed in Heilongjiang and Sakhalin Island. By the Jiajing period, they were scattered in the northeastern part of Liaodong: Jianzhou Jurchens were distributed in
To the east of Fushun Pass, the Haixi Jurchens live scattered in the north of Kaiyuan.
This place is the Jianzhou Jurchen. Gao Ming has already set a goal based on the information he has learned along the way.
**Hachi had a sworn enemy, the Jurchen Suksu River Tribe of Jianzhou, whose tribal leader Nikan Wailan, the lord of Tulun City, once killed **Hachi's entire family.
Jianzhou Jurchens are divided into 8 tribes, including the Sukeshu River tribe. They were named because they lived near the water, and were called Suzi River in modern times.
Others include the Zhechen tribe, Wanyan tribe, Hunhe tribe, Dong'e tribe, Yalujiang tribe, Neyin tribe and Zhusheli tribe.
Gao Ming's first stop was to visit the city lord of Tulum, Nikan Wailan. He was confident of persuading Nikan Wailan. Of course, he had to see what kind of person he was at that time.
The Northeast is not very hot in July, and Nikan Wailan is in a high mood today. Yesterday, his subordinates presented him with a beautiful southern Han woman, who is as beautiful as jade. Today is the time of spring breeze.
.
At this time, servants from the government came to report that a hero from the Central Plains came to visit. Gao Ming gave that disciple a lot of money. The disciple was very eloquent and described Gao Ming as coming from the Central Plains in admiration and would not hesitate to travel all the way to see him.
Zunyan. When Nikan Wailan is happy, he wants to meet the visitor.
There have been few major wars in the Liaodong region in the past hundred years. Except for occasional frictions with Siam, it has lasted for a hundred years. Therefore, the enjoyment of various resources is no worse than in the Central Plains.
In the city lord's palace near Gaoming, all you see on the road are rare things, such as pearls, porcelain, agate and jade. These Manchu emperors are far away from the emperor here. The imperial court has pursued a policy of defense and appeasement in Liaodong since the beginning of the dynasty, so the resources here are
There is no need to turn it over, the lord of this city is really rich.
However, Gao Ming sneered in his heart, maybe it won't take long for all this to be turned into ashes. Now that he is here, this place will be "lively".
Arriving in front of the hall, the decoration style gradually became more like that of northern ethnic minorities, with furs, carpets, deer heads, cow heads, and even tiger skins and tiger heads. Gao Ming didn't care about this and said generously:
"Chang'an Hu Yi Dao, see the Lord of the City." Gao Ming deliberately made up a false name, and planned on the way, pretending to be a swordsman, and put his foot down in this place first, and then make other plans after figuring out the situation.
When he entered Gao Ming, Nikan Wailan was also observing Gao Ming's demeanor. He had been in a high position for a long time and naturally developed his own way of observing people. Hu Yidao's steps were steady and his expression was leisurely. He did not reveal that he, a man from the North, had any feelings for him.
With that kind of flattery, he nodded and said: "The people from the Central Plains are indeed extraordinary. Mr. Hu Yidao came to see the Lord of this city. If you have anything to say, just tell me."
"Yidao has old news about the city lord's talent and strategy. When the city lord pacified Gule Village, even though Yidao was located in the Central Plains, many people heard about it." Gao Ming sent it with a big hat. In fact, Nikan Wailan could not have such achievements. He was in Li Chengliang at that time
He led his troops, and thanks to Li Chengliang's trick, he opened the gate of Gulezhai City and was able to defeat the city in one fell swoop. After the city was broken, Nikan Wailan ordered the massacre of the city, which can be described as ruthless.
