Li Dingguo was a little speechless, but he didn't care and agreed to their request.
Of course, these people had all been searched and were being watched by Li Dingguo's personal guards, so there was no fear that they would cause any trouble.
After the meeting, the envoy from the Dulbert tribe asked Li Dingguo straight to the point, what kind of treatment would the Dulbert tribe receive if they surrendered to the Ming Dynasty?
Regarding this issue, the imperial court had a clear purpose, and Li Dingguo naturally gave explanations one by one.
The Mongolian tribe was not captured, but actually returned. Just like the southwestern chieftain, they were given three choices:
1. The leader moves to the capital and is given corresponding titles based on the size and strength of the tribe. He will have no power in the future and enjoy glory and wealth;
Second, when a leader leaves the tribe, he can become an official elsewhere. He has power but no title. What happens next depends on his own efforts;
Third, if the leader surrenders to the army, some of the original tribesmen can be reorganized by the court to open up territory for the court.
As for the ordinary people, they are all the same. After surrendering to the Ming Dynasty, they become the ordinary people of the Ming Dynasty. Whatever the people of the Ming Dynasty enjoy, the newly surrendered Mongolian people also enjoy the same; whatever obligations the people of the Ming Dynasty bear, the newly surrendered Mongolian people also have to bear what obligations.
;
These are those who voluntarily surrendered, and there are others who are captured, so the treatment will be poor.
For example, if the Mobei Tribes are enemies of the Ming Dynasty, then the leaders of the Mobei Tribes will be killed without mercy if they do not surrender. If they are taken prisoner, they will also be condemned.
…
Li Dingguo would not explain it himself, he had his subordinates explaining it; while he was observing, he suddenly discovered a situation. Every time he explained, when he encountered something more important, such as the selection of tribal leaders, these Durbos
There are always a few people in the special department who will look at an older person standing in the middle.
Obviously the leader should be the middle-aged man standing at the front, but why do those people end up looking at the older man?
After Li Dingguo discovered this situation, he knew something was strange and had a guess in his mind; however, he remained calm and pretended not to know.
After the Ming army introduced the imperial policy, the envoy pretended to twist his neck, but actually looked at the old man behind him, then turned back and said to Li Dingguo sincerely: "Sir, can you allow us to discuss it?
This is related to the fate of the tribe!"
Li Dingguo noticed his little move and knew what he was doing, so he said calmly: "Now the imperial court attaches great importance to military merit, and I will not hide it from you. All the lieutenants in the army are eager to achieve military merit. Including the new recruits from the Mobei tribe, they all
I think that if I can achieve military merit, I can exchange for herds, land, houses, etc.! If your Dulbert tribe surrenders, although the soldiers will lose a lot of military merit, the court will eventually fulfill its promise. If you don't
If you are satisfied with the court's policy, it doesn't matter, I will let you go, and the generals will be happy to see you back in the west!"
His words made the people in Dulbert's department look a little ugly. But Gao Yigong and the others standing next to them were all gearing up. Although it wasn't that exaggerated, it was.
This means. This makes the faces of these Dulbert people even more ugly.
But before they could say anything, Li Dingguo softened his expression a little and said: "If you take the initiative to come to Guihua City to inquire about the court's policy, I will give you three days to walk around Guihua City as you like.
You can talk to anyone and see if what I say is untrue."
After hearing this, he found that several people's faces seemed to want to agree, but in the end, after the older man coughed slightly, the leader of the envoy thanked Li Dingguo for his kindness and said that he would definitely do it.
Use these three days to think about it carefully.
After they went out, Li Guo immediately said to Li Dingguo: "Master Marquis, the older man standing among these Dulbert tribe seems to be their leader!"
"Otherwise, just take him down for interrogation. He who hides his head is definitely not a good person!" After hearing this, Li Laiheng immediately suggested.
After hearing this, Li Dingguo stretched out his hand and shook it and said: "No matter who he is, it doesn't matter to us. If they are willing to join, that's the best. If they don't want to join and treat us badly, that's okay. I believe that if we join,
With the current strength of Huacheng, there is no problem in sweeping away the Waci in the west, not to mention annihilating them, but expelling them."
At this point, he paused and added: "Of course, it is best to surrender, as this will affect other tribes in Wasi, so there is nothing to worry about here in the west; maybe we can catch up with the war against Liaodong."
After everyone heard this, they said nothing else and waited three days to see what Dulbert's people would choose.
After everyone dispersed, Li Dingguo himself was still thinking about things on the Mongolian grassland.
At the moment, there is another thing that he is more concerned about, and that is the follow-up issue of Mobei Mongolia.
At the end of last year, as winter was approaching, Li Dingguo led an army to raid the wintering grounds of the three tribes in Mobei. Although the results were fruitful, many of the three tribes in Mobei were defeated. Especially the Mobei Mongolian nobles who led them,
Basically they escaped.
There was nothing they could do about it. After all, the grassland was vast as far as the eye could see, and they were more familiar with the terrain. They couldn't pursue or intercept them, so it was normal to escape.
Without ordinary herdsmen and herds, on the whole, Mobei can no longer pose a threat to the Ming Dynasty; however, these three escaped Mobei tribes will become an organized force because the noble leaders are still there.
Horse thief; it won’t work if you don’t take precautions at all.
But if all the noble leaders of the three tribes in Mobei were wiped out, there would be nothing but scattered sand. Those Mongolians who fled would either become servants of other tribes, or go south and surrender to the court;
Based on this idea, Li Dingguo is still considering whether he should wait until spring to organize a force and sweep Mobei again to see if he can attack the remaining enemies again?
However, he is still not sure about this. After all, the remaining enemies in Mobei will no longer be affected by the winter field. Who knows where they will be!
Li Dingguo was thinking about this matter. When the people from Dulbert's department arrived at the house where they were housed, someone immediately stood guard at the door, and others started discussing things in the house.
As expected by Li Guo, in the house at this time, the people from Dulbert's tribe were mainly the older man, talking around him.
From their names, we can know that this older man is none other than Dulbert Khan.
Previously, he had learned some things from Tuxie Tuhan and others. However, these things exceeded his impression of the Ming Dynasty; this was true whether it was the strength of the Ming army or the way they did things.
As for coming east to inquire about the situation in the Ming Dynasty, it was related to the fate of the tribe. In the end, Dulbert Khan decided that it was better to come over in person so that he could have a clear mind.
At this time, he already knew the Ming Dynasty's new policy towards the grassland tribes, so he ordered his men. Since the Marquis of the Ming Army had agreed, he should not be polite, split up his staff, and go to various places to inquire about the situation.
Even he himself couldn't sit still and decided to go out and take a look.
So, in the next few days, these people from the Duerbot tribe walked around the streets and inquired from ordinary herdsmen, the three Mobei tribes, the original Tumut tribe, etc.
Some people even went to observe the Ming army's barracks and assess the situation of the Ming army. In short, they were really rude and asked everywhere.
Unsurprisingly, these people from Dulbert's department saw various paintings and slogans left by people from the Political and Communications Department on the walls.
These paintings and slogans were originally meant to be shown to the herdsmen from the three tribes in Mobei. At this time, they are also suitable to be shown to the people of the Duerbot tribe.
As a result, they also saw from these propaganda posters that the Ming Dynasty would never treat any Ming people badly and treat them equally; there was also a plan for Guihua City, where there would be several times the housing construction plan of the original Guihua City.
And there is a railway leading here, and the imperial court will set up a naturalization office, grain fields, pastures, etc.
It can be said that the future of the grassland can basically be understood.
Of course, these people from Dulbert's department don't understand what a railway is. But if you ask casually, steam trains, which are the most shocking things in this era, will definitely spread immediately. I just arrived a year ago
Even if you have never seen the herdsmen of the three tribes in Mobei, you can still talk about them in eccentric ways.
Under all these circumstances, it was only the next day that Dulbert Khan had already made a decision.
So, he asked to see Ningyuan Hou again.
This time, at the first moment of the meeting, Dulbert Khan walked to the front desk, stood at the front, confessed to Li Dingguo, and showed his identity.
Li Dingguo was slightly surprised by this. Although he knew that this old man had a relatively high status, he did not expect that he would be Dulbert Khan.
At the same time, without Dulbert Khan speaking, he also knew that since Dulbert Khan took the initiative to reveal his identity, it is self-evident what their attitude is!
However, what Li Dingguo didn't expect was that Dulbert Khan said to him: "Our Dulbert tribe is willing to take the initiative to surrender to the Ming Dynasty, and we can also offer a generous gift for this. I just ask that the young people of our tribe
They can all join the army, but as I get older, I want to go to the capital."
In the past two days, he heard people in Guihua City talking about the prosperity of the capital. Especially the knowledge that Li Dingguo and others had just returned from the capital attracted the attention of the people in Guihua City. Naturally,
, and everyone in Dulbert’s department heard it.
In this life, he has never entered the customs. When he heard them exaggerating, he really wanted to see the miracle of the Ming Dynasty capital.
