It's just that it's a bit difficult to use the Yellow Sect, that is, the Gelug Sect, because the Gelug Sect in the true sense has not yet been established, and its founder Tsongkhapa is two years younger than Zhu Biao.
At this time, I had just gone from Xia Qiong Monastery to Zhi Gong Monastery to sit in front of A Rinpoche to listen to the Mahayana Aspiration Ritual, the Five Dharma of Great Seal, and the Six Dharma of Nare. I was far from being able to establish a new sect.
The characteristics of the Gelug Sect are that they strictly observe the precepts, do not engage in farming, and are single and do not marry.
However, other Tibetan sects have little effect. For example, the Nyingma sect prohibits marriages and has loose laws, which has no effect on restricting the population of the grasslands.
And the most critical point is that except for the Huang Sect, which is about to be reborn, the structures of the other sects are too complex and difficult to be exploited by the Ming Dynasty. It is even easy to attract wolves into the house and be invaded by Pazhu to unite Mongolia. The combination of the two will lead to the emergence of Mongolia. of great calamity.
Among the monks who have just arrived, there are several lamas who have just come from Uzang. They are the disciples of the former Yuan Dynasty Emperor's Master and the current Ming Dynasty Chisheng Buddha's national master Namgya Pa Zangbu. Their lineage belongs to the Ming Dynasty and was placed in Uzbekistan. Religious representative of Tibet.
In addition to restricting Sakyamuni Gyaltsen, they also tried to appease and win over the factions and temples close to the Ming Dynasty. However, the effect was very weak and they did not achieve any significant results.
There is no way around this. Although Pazhu has only been passed down to the second generation, it is fundamentally different from the original Uzbek regime. For example, the previous Sakya regime was established by the Yuan Dynasty and relied on the political power of the Yuan Dynasty to support it. , therefore the establishment of the Sakya regime and its rule over Uzang were not based on its own strength.
The Pazhu regime was established by the Tibetan people through their own efforts. It relied on overthrowing the Sakya regime established by the Yuan Dynasty and gained control over most of Usizang. This was achieved by relying on its own strength, not In particular, the recognition of the Central Plains Dynasty is needed.
Therefore, when the Ming Dynasty was founded, the envoys of Sakyamuni Gyaltsen came to ask for the title. Although Zhu Biao was unwilling, he still took advantage of the situation and made him the commander of the capital of Uszang and recognized him as the political and religious leader of Uszang. status.
Only then did Us Tibet become a part of the Ming Dynasty in name only, but its actual influence was very little. Unless a large number of troops were sent to Tibet to fight a war with no certainty of victory or defeat, we would not want to change this situation in the short term. The current situation is absolutely impossible, and Zhu Biao is also a clever woman who cannot make a meal without rice.
However, in the long run, Pazhu used force to eliminate the political power of many small lords, and established a centralized area similar to the Central Plains with direct taxation. The territory of Buddhist temples and the real estate of the Lang family were all under bureaucratic direct control, and similar systems were set up outside. The ancestral system of counties and counties, this simple centralized model, is similar to that of the early Qin and Han Dynasties in the Central Plains, and is very backward.
It would be difficult to avoid the problems in the late Han Dynasty. Zongben with military power would instinctively annex land to accommodate serfs, gradually evolving from local officials to powerful clans, forming a situation of local separatism, especially for religions like Uzang. A place with great atmosphere.
According to Zhu Biao's estimation, even if there is no external intervention, the Pazhu regime will exist in name only in less than a century. If it is promoted deliberately, this process can be shortened by 30 to 50 years. The main factor affecting this variable is the next Pazhu leader. What is the ability?
Therefore, Zhu Biao was not in a hurry. The current leader of Pazhu, Sakyamuni Chantsen, had more than enough to hold on to, but I heard that his health was not particularly good, and he was quite indulgent in women, so he was expected to die soon.
[The problem of slow update of new chapters can be solved by
Duogan Xingdu Division is within the controllable area, and the other two locations are the main focus of efforts during this period. Zhu Biao has ordered the successors of these two divisions to rush to the capital.
Not only Mongolia relies on the Yellow Sect, but also places such as Uszang. Starting with religion is the lowest-cost and most effective auxiliary method, which can be used for at least hundreds of years.
Religion is a very practical method, but it will definitely not be the main method. After the Golden Family is swept away, Zhu Biao will implement the alliance flag system in Mongolia and divide the entire Mongolia into alliance flags so that they are not subordinate to each other. Nomadic herding, farming and travel in Zhun Yue Banner.
But these are all means, and the Mongols are not fools. They want them to fall into the trap willingly. The core is always profit. Only with profit can we truly tame Mongolia.
Otherwise, no matter what method is used, it is just a castle in the air, and it can be repeated once and for all. The Qing Dynasty was able to tame Mongolia because of enough tangible benefits. The Eight Banners' hard-core crops are well known, and the Mongolian princes enjoy the iron power second only to the Eight Banners princes. crops.
The nomads invaded south for the purpose of grabbing money and food. The Qing Dynasty provided its nobles with absolutely high salaries under the alliance flag system and other supporting measures, and ensured resources that could satisfy their upper class enjoyment. Since they can sit back and enjoy the gains, they will naturally not stop. Invasion from the south.
As for whether the lower-level herdsmen can no longer survive, that is not within their scope of consideration. In order to ensure everything they enjoy, they will even take the initiative to suppress the herdsmen who want to invade south.
The Qing Dynasty was not a purely Manchu regime, but was essentially a Manchu-Mongolian regime. It used the entire Central Plains Han people to support the Manchu and Mongolian ethnic groups. The benefits the Qing Dynasty gave up on the Mongolian issue far exceeded the annual coins of the Song Dynasty.
As for other means such as marriage, they are just the icing on the cake. The core is always the huge benefits visible to the naked eye. This is the fundamental reason why the Mongolian princes in the past were willing to put down their scimitars and let others manipulate them.
The Qing Dynasty could do this because its own population was sparse and it was impossible to secure the Central Plains without drawing in Mongolia, but Zhu Biao could never do this.
Therefore, it was far more difficult for the Ming Dynasty to tame Mongolia than the Qing Dynasty. This was not a problem that could be solved by marrying a few Mongolian noblewomen and implementing a few policies.
We still have to rely on one hand of money and food and the other of weapons to figure it out slowly.
It is inevitable that some Mongolian princes will be bound by interests, but it cannot be a simple donation, otherwise it will be to drive away the Tartars in vain, and they will also have to give up the gold, silver, jewelry, cattle, sheep and horses in their hands.
Jiangyinhou has been out to sea for more than a year. Although the fleet has not returned, news is still being passed on reluctantly. Occasionally, small countries whose fleets pass by will specially send envoys to the DPRK with treasures and ask for trade.
It was the size of the fleet that frightened their entire country. Not to mention the huge ships, the tens of thousands of elite soldiers on board were enough to easily annihilate their entire country.
After learning that the fleet was just a tiny bit of the Ming Dynasty's strength, they were all frightened day and night. The king wanted to entertain the envoys left behind by the fleet every day, asking for advice on how to win the Ming Dynasty's recognition and protect the country's peace.
These people were specially taught by Zhu Biao. They would stay in the countries along the way for several years, preach the culture of the Central Plains to the nobles in the country, and urge them to send envoys to the DPRK.
After flaunting their troops in foreign lands and showing their prestige overseas, they naturally stepped up communication and exchanges. For small countries with less than a few hundred thousand people, a few visits by a large country was enough to make them take the initiative to surrender.
Lan Yu and Tang Ding in Japan were even more powerful, and the war between the Northern and Southern Dynasties became more and more fierce. The population dropped sharply at an unimaginable rate. With a small population, there were no soldiers to recruit and no taxes to collect. Therefore, the feudal lords everywhere tightened their control. , the Japanese who were able to escape Japan and go to sea to become Japanese pirates gradually became sparse, and the trade environment at sea became better.
