Huang Yuanshou still didn't quite understand what the prince meant, so he just responded according to his own understanding: "The general's sword pointed out, and he will not hesitate to go through fire and water. He is willing to lead dozens of ships and tens of thousands of soldiers to open up the territory for the Ming Dynasty for your highness." earth!"
Zhu Biao shook his head: "Most of the countries in Southeast Asia have already paid tribute to the Ming Dynasty. The imperial court cannot abide by the power of the higher country. It will inflict anger on the vassal country for no reason. The teacher will be unknown, and everyone will lose their heart."
The lesson of Annan in history is that without a foundation, he directly occupied the territory by force and ruled with high-pressure policies. However, the result was that he fell into endless suppression of bandits and suppressed rebellions, and in the end the gains outweighed the losses and had to give up.
Huang Yuanshou had a grimace on his face and his tall and straight body shrank unconsciously: "The last general is a warrior. If he charges into the battle, he has no shirking responsibility. This is a matter of planning for the country and the temple..."
Zhu Biao ignored him: "Years ago, after the Battle of Yashan, the left prime minister Lu Xiufu died by crossing the sea with his young emperor. It was rumored that his youngest son Lu Zili led the survivors of the Southern Song Dynasty to flee to Java Island in Southeast Asia by boat. Since there was no Zhao and Song royal family by his side, Lu Zili He was elected as the leader, established the country Shunta, and was ready to wait for the opportunity to counterattack the Mongolian army."
Huang Yuanshou couldn't help but exclaimed: "There is such a loyal queen in Nanyang."
Zhu Biao frowned slightly, wondering why this person always couldn't grasp the key points, but he was still patient. After all, compared to others, he has proven himself in history and is always more trustworthy.
Although this person is not very loyal and is a lively person, some specific undertakings must be completed by such people.
"All the wives, sons and daughters of Mr. Lu went to sea with him. It is still doubtful whether this Lu Zili is of the blood of Mr. Lu, but this is just a detail. After Jinghaihou arrived in Nanyang,
Shunta State sent envoys to submit to the Ming Dynasty and asked the Ming Dynasty to be canonized as a vassal state, so he had to accept it. "
"This palace ordered the construction of Lu Zhonglie's Gongfu in Xinhui, Guangzhou, and the erection of a monument to the hometown of Lu Gong, Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty, in Zhenjiang, with the inscription "Gu Zhong of Haiguo" on it, and sent craftsmen from the Ministry of Rites and Work to lead craftsmen across the sea to Shun Pagoda to pay homage."
The more Huang Yuanshou listened, the more hesitant he became. This kind of thing was not something he, the commander-in-chief, should know about the staff. Could it be that His Highness was in a good mood and wanted to talk to someone casually?
"Shunta Kingdom can be regarded as the benchmark for the Han people in Nanyang, but not all the survivors have qualified leaders to lead the country and take root. Too many Song and Yuan survivors struggled to survive under the rule of Nanyang vassal states."
"I want you to gather these remnants as a traitor general of the Shunta Kingdom. You may first become a pirate and bandit, or you may find a remote corner to establish a country. In short, I want you to gather the remnants as much as possible to multiply and spread sinology. When the time is right, At that time, they annexed and occupied the Nanyang lands."
Huang Yuanshou was stunned for a moment. He had just made great achievements, and was promoted to the rank of Commander-in-Chief by His Majesty. He was summoned by His Highness the Crown Prince. He thought he was about to achieve great success, but now he was exiled to Nanyang.
If you are a general of the Ming Dynasty, that's fine. If you open up territories and expand your territory, you will be invincible. But if you are a rebel general of the Shunta Kingdom, you will be fine if you can survive, and you can also annex other countries...
He knelt down with a thump and said: "If you are not holding back, you are really weak and weak. I don't care about this life. If you only worry about delaying important things, you will die a hundred times!"
Historically, when Huang Yuanshou got old, he personally led an envoy to Beijing to meet with him. He was tired from traveling and traveling, and he was old and frail. Before his death, he wrote a memorial hoping that all the land he owned in the Boni Kingdom and the Broken Hand River Basin would be included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty.
….
Among them, the second is to request that the highest mountain in Southeast Asia be designated as the Zhenshan of the Bo Ni Kingdom, and the third is to hope that he can return to his roots and support his body in China.
Zhu Biao asked Liu Jin to help him up: "Whether things can happen depends on God's will. All we can do is try our best. How can we be afraid to move forward? Since I have chosen you, just go ahead and do it." "
When Huang Yuanshou heard this, he knew that he had no room to refuse, and his mind immediately came to life. There were risks in this matter. There were big risks. If you were not careful, you would lose your life, but the opportunities were not small.
If it hadn't been for this, he would have been transferred to Yunnan Tengchong Guard as the general soldier according to the Ministry of War's transfer. Even if he was given the important position by Pingxi Marquis, he would have been like General Huaiyuan and General Zhaoyong in this life. If he wanted to earn an heirloom title for his children and grandchildren, wouldn't he? possible.
And if it succeeds now, the contribution of dedicating land to opening up the border will at least have a marquis, and even higher is not impossible. Although he is not from Huaixi, at least he will have someone to follow His Highness.
The qualifications for the Northern Expedition are there. In the future, His Highness will ascend the throne, and there may be additional favors.
"You can bring ten confidants. I also asked King Sunta to prepare 200 elite troops for you. These are the only things that can help you in the early stage, but as long as you stand firm, the subsequent supplies will follow."
"The court never hesitates to reward meritorious deeds. You all know how majestic the founding princes are now. You dared to compete with the Mongolian cavalry in the Northern Expedition, but now you are afraid of the weak people in the South?"
Huang Yuanshou was so excited that his blood rushed to his head. His face turned red and he said loudly: "I will regard the Japanese pirates as nothing more than trivial matters. How can I be afraid of the Nanyang barbarians who are worse than the Japanese pirates? I will issue a military order to the general here. If I don't After returning with success, I would rather bury my bones and die at the bottom of the sea!"
Zhu Biao is satisfied
Head: "I heard that you are very brave even though you are young, so I have been specially summoned to the palace as the Jinwu Guard and will return to the capital with me."
Huang Yuanshou thanked En and stepped back. He had to quickly choose a suitable confidant and arrange for his wife and children, but overall, he was still very cheerful.
Zhu Biao walked to the study room, and the red pen handed over by Liu Jin circled the Bo Ni Country. There were more than a dozen such red circles on the surrounding islands, all over Southeast Asia.
Rule requires a foundation, but after the Ming Dynasty moved to Yunnan and Liaodong, it could not find young people of the right age to move the people. Moreover, Nanyang was not under the rule of the Ming Dynasty, so how could the king accept and settle Han people casually.
Without proper resettlement by local officials, it would not be called relocation but exile. At that time, not only would it not be the basis for rule, it would also be the source of hatred and hostility.
But Zhu Biao was reluctant to leave Nanyang, so he had no choice but to take advantage of the survivors of the Song and Yuan Dynasties, especially since they were not doing well there. This was the natural foundation.
There is salvation only when there is suffering, and gods are needed only when there are ghosts and monsters. There is never love or hate for no reason. If they integrate well in the local area, then they will not consider themselves Han Chinese, and they will not need to rely on the Ming Dynasty to improve their status. .
The Shunta Kingdom is a special case, and Nanyang is not a powerful country. It can barely protect itself. The vast majority of the remaining people are being excluded and suppressed, and their social status is extremely low.
Huang Yuanshou is not the first one arranged by Zhu Biao, nor will he be the last one, but he should be the most hopeful one.
Generally speaking, it is like raising poison. The one who can survive to the end and integrate all the power is the Nanyang King who Ming Dynasty needs to win over and appease. It is the most suitable person for such a person to offer his land and become his vassal.
….
Zhu Biao is not
If you want to rely on force to conquer, there are many rainforests in Southeast Asia, and if the indigenous forces hide in the mountains, forests, trenches and small islands, it is impossible to completely solve it, and the administrative officials who airborne from the Ming Dynasty will also be ostracized.
Therefore, the best situation is that there will be an integrated force in Nanyang with a complete administrative system and an interest system composed of the indigenous nobles of Nanyang who are survivors of the Song and Yuan Dynasties.
Coupled with the economic prosperity and stability caused by the opening of maritime trade in the Ming Dynasty, and the growing maritime fleet of Marquis Jinghai, they were both unwilling to part with profits and unable to resist force. The only way to completely make them return to their hearts without repeating the invasion of Annan ’s mistakes.
In fact, it is all about profit. As long as you try to be a human being, wear comfortable clothes, eat delicious food, and live a stable life, no one will ever go back to the savage life of collecting shells and wearing straw mats.
According to a report from the Marquis of Jinghai, none of the Southeast Asian countries had city walls. The Chinese people's houses were built with thatch, and their furniture was built with earthen vaults made of bricks. The nobles only built their houses with tiles made of hardwood boards with cracks.
Not to mention the survivors of the Song and Yuan Dynasties. When they first went there, they represented advanced productivity and mastered farming, building houses, digging wells, making paper, and making farm tools. These are common technologies in the local area. However, after escaping to Nanyang, they , after a few generations, we will face the problem of inheritance being cut off.
Because there are so many differences in climate and environment between Nanyang and the Central Plains, some technologies are easily lost after being left idle, and cannot be retrieved when needed. When times are precarious, the most important thing is always survival, and preserving inherited technologies, It also requires a certain number of people and environment.
