The siege of the Mengge Tribe Royal Court is still continuing, but incendiary bombs are rarely fired, because the entire Mengge Tribe Royal Court was basically destroyed after almost half a month of attack.
In addition, after being bombarded by the Central Plains army for many days, the grassland people also gained some experience in dealing with it. Now the royal court of the Mengge tribe has dug a large number of cellars. The main purpose is to prevent bombardment from the Central Plains.
The shelling also caused great losses to the grassland people. In addition to property losses, what made the Mengge tribe most desperate was that the Central Plains army had not even launched a real general offensive, and nearly one-third of his men had been killed or injured.
The master craftsmen who recorded incendiary bomb data and investigated opinions on improving artillery have already returned to the Central Plains. According to news from the rear and suggestions from the front line, some artillery pieces of various calibers dedicated to the army have been experimentally manufactured.
Maybe by the time a total attack is launched in the Central Plains, those improved artillery can be used.
Just when the Central Plains army besieged the Mengge Royal Court, the Central Plains Dynasty also began to advance the transformation of the territory occupied by the Central Plains army according to the original plan.
Xixia has all been included in the Central Plains map. The Xixia rebels who were originally entrenched in the southern part of Xixia and took refuge in the Central Plains have been weakened to the extreme after a period of mutual conquests. After that, the Central Plains directly ordered that those who respected their duties should
As the leader of the rebels, he went to the city to meet the emperor.
These people knew that if they went to the capital of the Central Plains, it was basically impossible to come back. The best result would be to be given an idle official position and imprisoned in the capital in disguise. Some people were unwilling at first, and the Northwest Army directly refused to resist the order.
For the sake of respect, we sent troops to destroy them.
This action directly shocked the others. The others were unwilling and did not dare to openly resist and disrespect the order. They delayed the time for various reasons. Then, as soon as the Northwest Army made a slight move, these people all ran away quickly.
Entering the city.
The first person to run was Ren Dejing. This guy was considered to be the strongest among the Xixia rebels, but he knew the strength of the Central Plains better and knew that he could no longer report any illusions. It was really impossible not to go to the capital again.
.Decided to go to the capital. Ren Dejing knew very well that it would be better to go early than to go late. If he expressed his attitude earlier, he might get more preferential treatment, so this guy was the first to go to the capital.
As soon as someone took the lead, others quickly ran to the capital. In this way, the northwest army captured the southern part of Xixia without bloodshed. After that, Xixia was directly included in the central version of the map. A large number of officials were also sent to various places in Xixia. These people were not only
When they came to rule, they also brought with them the Confucian ideology of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. Their purpose was to completely assimilate the Xixia region.
In the same situation, a large number of Confucian scholars, monks and Taoists also began to enter the grasslands and spread some doctrines of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. However, compared with Xixia, the effect on the grasslands was not very good. The grassland people had a completely different culture. In a short period of time,
It was not very effective to get them to accept the Central Plains approach. In order to completely control the grassland, the Central Plains began to enfeoff the tribes in various places. The tribes who surrendered the grassland to the Central Plains were all scattered throughout the grassland.
Moreover, there is a principle of enfeoffment. As soon as the number of these tribes exceeds 100,000, they will immediately open the enfeoffment and enfeoff two khans, each controlling a part of the people. The enfeoffment is spread far and wide. Anyway, the same tribe will never let them be next to each other.
Even the Khitan tribe has been demolished, but the main Khitan tribe has not been demolished too harshly. After all, the khan of the Khitan tribe is now Xiao Feng, a slightly better master in the world.
But the demolished Khitan tribes and their fiefdoms are also placed everywhere, and they are often bordered by the Khitan tribe and the tribes that once took refuge with Meng Ge. You must know that these tribes that once belonged to Meng Ge did not get along with the Khitan tribe.
So harmonious. This prevents them from joining forces to the greatest extent.
A series of operations in the Central Plains directly divided a land as large as the grassland into hundreds of tribes, large and small, and several key strategic locations were still directly ruled by the Central Plains. The grassland basically could no longer make any big waves.
coming.
These operations basically went smoothly. The largest Mengge tribe was besieged by the army and was already half-dead. The second-largest Khitan tribe had also been abolished, and the Central Plains still held their own food and grass. Those grassland tribes were just not there.
Satisfied and unable to resist, he could only be forced to accept Zhongyuan's order.
When it came time to unblock the Khitan tribe, Zhongyuan hesitated a little, but Zhongyuan also fully respected Xiao Feng, and Xiao Feng really had no other ideas. In the end, the plan went smoothly, and Zhongyuan completed the unblocking of the grassland.
When Zeng Yi learned about this series of operations in Zhongyuan on the front line, he was shocked. He did not expect that the plan would go so smoothly.
Several big guys gathered together to review the past few days. They all had smiles on their faces because they were hesitant about not being able to win over the royal court of the Mengge tribe.
"There are hundreds of tribes, large and small, and the tribes bordering each other are all tribes that are difficult to deal with. The grassland has basically been declared complete!"
"Yes, even if Meng Ge is released now, he won't be able to make any big waves. All the territory has been divided, and the strategic areas are still directly ruled by the imperial court. By then, if some soldiers and horses are accumulated in these strategic areas, the grassland will basically not be able to turn over.
Opportunity!"
Zeng Yi said with a smile: "In fact, you can also send out Jin Yiwei to sow discord and make the bordering tribes, even if they don't have hatred, create some hatred for him!"
"Good idea!" Several people did not feel that Zhou Yi was too sinister, but they all thought it was a good idea.
"We also need to be on guard against intermarriage. Prairie tribes can easily unite through intermarriage!" Qinglong is indeed a veteran intelligence officer. He pointed out a problem among the tribes in this drama.
"Intermarriage is indeed a problem, but don't worry too much. Jinyiwei will definitely build Yuelai Inns in various places in the future. We will also know which tribe has intermarriage at the first time." In fact, a long time ago, the Four Kingdoms had no signs of war.
When the opponent invaded the Central Plains, there was a Yuelai Inn in the Xixia Royal City and even the Mengge Royal Court. However, as conflicts broke out between the two sides, these inns were destroyed without exception.
But now various places can start to deliberately build Yuelai Inns, especially Xixia. After the Central Plains army captured the entire Xixia, Jinyiwei couldn't wait to rebuild Yuelai Inns. When all the Yuelai Inns in these places are built, then these places
The information was continuously sent back to the capital!
The next step, Jin Yiwei's plan is to build some Yuelai Inns across the grasslands.
