Of course North Korea didn't understand what the siphon effect was, but by the time they discovered it, it was already a done deal.
Nearly 30% of the rural people sold their property and left their homeland, including some of the two-version nobles who occupied the core of the rule.
As for why the two groups of nobles left, it was because they had greater ambitions:
The Ming people promised that Heilongjiang would hold imperial examinations.
In other words, they, the rural landowners and the two groups of nobles, will take part in the imperial examinations of the Ming Dynasty, and even participate in the examinations, and the carp will leap over the dragon's gate.
It is precisely because they took the lead that the people in the countryside were so excited.
As a result, a strange phenomenon in North Korea appeared in North Hamkyong Province: the remaining farmers occupied a large amount of cultivated land.
As long as they could stay, almost all became small landowners.
So, both sides benefit.
The one who benefited the most was Heilongjiang Xingdusi.
In just one summer, the population of Heilongjiang City exceeded 50,000, and large-scale deforestation of wasteland was opened nearby. Everything was so vibrant.
The Koreans brought doctors, craftsmen, scholars, farmers, merchants, and scarce craftsmen.
Compared with money, these talents are the most precious to Heilongjiang.
While the easternmost part of the Ming Dynasty was still full of spring, the westernmost province of Anxi was plunged into busyness and heat.
Although Anxi Province is now newly established, it relies on the help of Gansu and Shaanxi for money and food.
Ili and Yarkand are the ruling cores of Nanqiang and Northern Xinjiang, but the real center lies in the newly built Urumqi.
"Do you know why it's called Urumqi?"
The herdsmen were busy driving their cattle and carrying wood on their backs, and the whole of Urumqi was like a pot of porridge.
After the entire Western Region was unified, the number of herdsmen working in Urumqi exceeded 100,000 at the peak and exceeded 30,000 at the trough.
Duke Jin Guo, General Anxi, and Li Dingguo were riding on horseback, looking at Urumqi surrounded by rivers, expressionless.
And half a horse's head behind him was a young man who was in high spirits and exuded a youthful and high-spirited atmosphere.
"Urumqi is the Mongolian name, which means beautiful pasture. This is the core of the Heshuote tribe and the location of the sweat tent——"
Jia Daihua said without hesitation.
"That's right." Li Dingguo showed a smile: "Originally, this new city should have a new name, but it is too ugly to call it Urumqi."
"For example, Tingzhou or Luntai in the Tang Dynasty. These ancient names are good, but they were rejected by His Majesty."
"The Holy Spirit said that Urumqi is originally the land of Mongolia. If it is named after it, I am afraid that the Mongolian spoken language will be different from the name of the city spoken by the Han people. It is better to be more submissive and call it Urumqi."
Hearing this, Jia Daihua remained silent.
Although there was an expression of approval on his face, he was muttering in his heart: "I'm afraid His Majesty is being lazy, so he just used his old name casually!"
Judging from how many years he has been rotating around the emperor, this is very possible.
"General, this city has cost hundreds of thousands, and the price is inevitably too high." Jia Daihua put forward his own opinion: "It is not a bad idea to live in Ili temporarily."
"No, your view of the problem is too one-sided."
Li Dingguo's deep voice sounded: "If we didn't build the city under the pretense of building a city, how could the nobles and tribes living in various places send people here?"
"Such a large-scale corvee will definitely suppress their desire to send troops, and the entire Anxi will be much more peaceful."
"As for those who disobey, they will be wiped out."
When Jia Daihua heard this, he couldn't help but be speechless. Are the hearts of those who engage in politics so dark?
The two of them seemed to have no connection with each other and were not restricted by their status. They chatted freely about Anxi's situation.
The oasis manor in the south and the grassland tribe in the north, one believes in Peace and the other believes in Buddhism, are almost completely different.
The imperial court forcibly turned it into a province, which was really embarrassing.
Li Dingguo couldn't help but complain: "The imperial court
If a horse and a donkey are put together in a shack, they will definitely not be able to live peacefully in the future. "
Suddenly, under the clear sky, a rider came towards me. He was up and down, moving very quickly.
"General, the Kazakh Khanate sent envoys to ask for an audience, and envoys from the Rakshasa people have also arrived——"
"What a coincidence."
Li Dingguo smiled, turned to Jia Daihua and said, "You continue to supervise the construction, I will come back as soon as I can."
In a short time, he arrived at the camp and saw the Kazakhs in the slightly gorgeous tent.
The Kazakh Khanate was split from the Golden Horde. It belongs to the Jochi family among the Golden Horde. It occupies the Kipchak grassland and is divided into three areas: Dayuzi, Zhongyuzi, and Xiaoyuzi.
There is no doubt that the Golden Horde is a conventional Mongolian nomadic tribe state, and it is a Turkic Mongolian people.
The most obvious feature is that from top to bottom, the Golden Horde, although they spoke Mongolian, has evolved from the characteristic single eyelids, flat nose, and pie face to a high nose bridge and green-brown eyes.
If they hadn't claimed to be descendants of the Golden Family, almost no one would have regarded them as Mongolians.
However, the Kazakhs have close ties with the Oirat Mongols, and they often fight back and forth. In order to fight against their in-laws, the Oirat Mongols, the Kazakh Khanate, the Bukhara Khanate (Uzbek Khanate), and the Yarkand Khanate even united to some extent. .
Of course, the Kazakh Khanate is still in its period of strength. Last year, while the Oirat Mongols were at war with the Ming army, they directly captured the Seven Rivers Basin.
That is, the area of seven rivers flowing to Lake Balkhash, a fertile land east of Lake Balkhash.
This was the territory of the Junggar tribe before.
In the Tang Dynasty, it was the location of Suiye City, and the western border was the famous Talas City.
(Insert, the northwest area ceded to Tsarist Russia by the Manchu Qing Dynasty was Qihe)
"Are your country ready to hand back the land of Seven Rivers?"
Li Dingguo sat down on the tiger-skin chair, raised his head and asked.
This time it was his turn to be confused.
The translator hesitated for a moment and then translated: "The land of Seven Rivers was taken over from the Junggar tribe by our country, and it should have nothing to do with your country."
"What the hell are you talking about?" Li Dingguo rolled his eyes when he heard this.
He was not upset at all.
He had no idea about the Qihe Basin. Although he knew it was a fertile area, the current Anxi Province was too big to occupy.
Before Anxi is fully digested, the rest of the place is out of reach.
Besides, this is other people's task. All he can do now is stabilize Anxi.
"Tell me, if it's not why you returned the land, then why did you come here?"
"Why did Jianger Khan send his minister here to buy muskets?" The envoy said with a smile on his face.
Li Dingguo smiled.
Without the Oirat Mongols as a foreign enemy, the Kazakh Khanate and the Bukhara Khanate began to fall in love and kill each other.
Especially since the Bukhara Khanate is currently divided among its tribes, and the Persians and Mughal Empire are all eyeing it, it is impossible for the Kazakhs to give up this good opportunity.
Unfortunately, for the Ming Dynasty, the Bukhara Khanate was too far away.
"I can sell it to you."
Li Dingguo's heart changed and he immediately agreed.
Nowadays, although the Rakshasa people are constantly intimidating and tempting in Dayuzi, they are limited to lack of strength and can only relax and remain in the honeymoon period.
If the Ming Dynasty doesn't sell it, the Rakshasa people will definitely sell it.
At this time when money and food are scarce, supplements are needed.
…
But obviously, the Rakshasa people are busier than imagined.
After learning that the Manchus had annexed the Chechen Khan tribe, the Russians began to run for their own interests in the Siberian wilderness.
They first came to Fengjing City, bringing a large amount of gunpowder and the Tsar's sincerity.
Later, they came to Kulun, the Tushetu Khan tribe, and sold large quantities of goods to them.
Quantity of muskets and gunpowder.
Getting rich is just easy for them, and their biggest hope is to let both parties suffer losses, so that they can fish and hunt in the middle.
However, as time went by, the more they understood, the less confident they became in Khalkha Mongolia, and their biggest concern became making money.
Kulun, the summer pasture of the Tuxie Tuhan tribe, was bustling with people at this time.
Jebtsundamba Hutuktu, who was recognized by Lhasa and canonized by the Ming Emperor, is sitting on the hillside.
The golden sunlight rose from behind him, illuminating the boundless Buddha's colors. The believers knelt in front, kowtowed devoutly, and kept chanting Amitabha.
The nobles occupy the closest position, and they seem to be at the forefront under the Buddha's light.
Not far away, a young man was looking at this place with deep eyes. He was holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand and was fiddling with them back and forth.
His round, dark face was covered with beard, but it could not hide the sadness in his heart.
He was the great Khan of the Tushetu Khan tribe, Chahu Dorji, and the 23-year-old Oqi Laisain Khan.
At this time, the elderly Tenzin Lama asked: "Why is the Great Khan so sad?"
"How can I not be sad?" Chakhundolji sighed: "Father Khan passed away only two years ago, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty became arrogant and domineering, annexing the Chechen Khan tribe, and now they have touched our door again."
"Won't the Buddha protect us?"
Hearing this, Lama Tenzin shook his head slightly: "How could the Buddha not protect us?"
"As long as we worship the Buddha sincerely and be grateful, even if war is unavoidable, I believe that the final victory will definitely belong to us."
When Chahun Dorji heard this, he rolled his eyes inwardly.
What the hell is this?
Compared with his father Gunbu, Chahu Dorji was more devout in his belief in Buddha.
There was no way, who allowed his younger brother, his biological younger brother, to be a big living creature on the grassland?
He grew up in such an environment and was extremely devout in his belief in Buddha, but he also understood that Buddha could not help him in the human world.
After gathering himself, he glanced at his radiant brother in the distance, clasped his hands together, and breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter what, with the great Jebzundan Bahutuktu on his side, those herdsmen and warriors would definitely kill the enemy with high morale.
"Great Khan, since we are now at odds with the Manchus, why not let the noble Huofao call him the enemy of the Buddha?"
When Lama Tenzin saw his appearance, he immediately understood his thoughts and made decisive suggestions.
"Buddha's enemy?"
Chahun Dorji looked surprised.
Why didn't he think of this move?
In this way, the tribes under his command will inevitably fight against the enemy with all their heart, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty will lose their hearts and minds, thus losing the legal principles to rule the grasslands.
And since we can't rule the grasslands, what's the point of fighting anymore?
"This is a good idea."
Chahun Dorji smiled.
"However, Great Khan, it is best to discuss this matter with Bishitu Khan. If the two of you speak in unison, the people in the grassland will believe it. Who dares to refute?"
The Bishitu Khan here refers to the great khan of the Zasak tribe, Norbu.
Now that the Manchu and Qing invaders have invaded, the relationship between the two countries has greatly improved.
Chahun Dorji couldn't help but nod.
At the end of the afternoon, Jebtsundamba finally finished a lecture on Buddhism. The herdsmen left piously and finally made offerings.
Chahu Dorji went up to greet him and clasped his hands together: "Today's sermon was very good."
"Is there anything wrong with the Great Khan?" Jebtsundamba I had a gentle attitude and was polite to his brother.
"Master, tell me!" Chahun Dorji trembled for a few words, unable to speak.
Although he is his biological brother, he is very lively and too direct.
Tenzin Lama walked up to him unceremoniously and whispered something in his ear.
Please explain.
After hearing this, Huofao sighed: "How many wars are there in the world?"
"Buddha's heart is good, but when faced with evildoers, there are also angry-eyed Vajras. There are many Buddhists in the three Khalkha tribes. I really can't bear the pain of war, but now, I have to do it..."
After Huofao agreed, half the work was done.
At this time, Zasak Khan Norbu also agreed to this matter, and even directly declared that the Manchus were the enemies of Buddha.
So, suddenly, like a whirlwind, the infamy of the Manchu Buddha's enemy spread throughout Mobei, and even spread to Monan, causing people's hearts to tremble.
In Fengjing City, Shunzhi gritted his teeth with hatred at the rumors about Buddha's enemies.
Without it, within the Manchu Qing Dynasty, a large number of noble soldiers believed in Buddhism. Whether it was Zen Buddhism or Yellow Buddhism, they were all Buddhas to them.
In the recently annexed Chechen Khanate, there were even those with deep roots in the Yellow Sect. News of the Buddhist enemies suddenly spread, and tens of thousands of Mongolians were panicked.
Helpless, the Manchu and Qing Dynasties could only suppress it.
By this time, they were determined to start a war as soon as possible.
In Fan Wencheng's words: "Now that we are infamy, as time goes by, we will inevitably be in turmoil. At this moment, the best thing is to go straight to the Tuxie River and threaten Erdenizhao (Guangxian Temple)."
"Only living people can change the reputation of Buddha's enemies."
As a result, what Tushetu Khan and Zhasak Khan could not have imagined was that their operation accelerated the pace of the Qing Dynasty's use of troops.
Suddenly, a grassland war is about to break out, and the news of death spreads throughout Monan and Mobei.
In Guihua City, tens of thousands of Ming troops gathered here.
At this time of naturalization, horses, cattle and sheep were everywhere.
In order to support the imperial court's dispatch of troops, Suiyuan recruited tens of thousands of horses at one time to accompany the army, that is, to serve as a means of transportation for the infantry.
And why to save military rations, they even adopted the method of driving herds. Hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep accompanied the army.
As time went by, the whole of Suiyuan felt something was wrong:
The 50,000-strong army is almost starving Suiyuan——
