[Chapter 379] The soldiers come and the generals come and the water comes and the soil covers the earth!

(0379)

Xu Xingxia and his white-clothed army were all in Heishan Camp, and it was impossible to migrate all to Bayannur grassland. He had to migrate from all over the place to enrich the population base of Bayannur grassland and gain enough productivity and combat effectiveness. If the Aoyangga tribe took advantage of this ride and migrate the tribe to Bayannur grassland, it would undoubtedly be an excellent choice. In the area south of Yinshan, the richness of Bayannur grassland is famous for!

What are the two most important things for nomadic people? One is the number of population, and the other is the number of horses, cattle and sheep. Among them, the number of population is the most important. This is the basis of everything. Without a sufficient base of population, there will be no sufficient strong men. Without a sufficient base of strong men, there will be no sufficient number of cavalry. Without a sufficient number of cavalry, there will be no self-safety. Without a sufficient number of cavalry, it will not be able to guarantee one's own safety. It will not be able to guarantee one's own safety. Then no matter how many horses, cattle and sheep raised, it is just to make wedding clothes for others.

It seems that the three major tribes of the Tatars, and the Tumote tribe of Lin Danhan, are so scary? It is because they have a sufficient population base, a sufficient number of strong men, and a sufficient number of cavalry teams. Most people will definitely mention Lin Danhan's 50,000 iron-spray cavalry, which shows that. Lin Danhan cannot do anything to the Korqin tribe, and has a great relationship with the Korqin tribe. In the prairie, everything is nonsense, only fists are the most important.

To increase the population, it is necessary to increase the population birth rate and improve the growth rate of infants and young children. This involves a relatively systematic project. Although there were no so-called population experts at that time, no one summarized the rules of population growth. However, they also vaguely knew that not only should a large number of children be given birth, but the children born must also grow up as healthy as possible. Only by combining the two can the population increase as soon as possible. Obviously, in the grassland with underdeveloped medical standards, a suitable pasture is very important.

What conditions do such a pasture require? At the very least, it must have a relatively suitable climate and not too cold. A too cold climate is extremely unfavorable for population growth. Obviously, the climate north of the desert is quite inappropriate. Yinshan, south of Daqingshan, and around the Yellow River are the most suitable. Similarly, there is enough food. The increase in population is accompanied by a huge increase in demand for food. Without enough food, it cannot support enough population. Obviously, the area north of the desert is also unsuitable.

Bayannur grassland fully meets the conditions mentioned above. Here, nomadic peoples can raise a large number of horses, cattle and sheep to provide themselves with enough food. At the same time, the climate here is also conducive to the increase of population. Moreover, it is very close to the Han people's ruling area, and it can easily obtain a large amount of medicine from the Han people, reducing the chance of dying due to diseases. Because it is close to the Han people's ruling scope, it can obtain assistance from the Han people, and even if a large-scale disease such as plague occurs, it can be controlled to a certain extent.

There is no doubt that after listening to the advice of kind-hearted people, Aoyanga was immediately moved. If his tribe could be moved to Bayannur Grassland, the space for development would be hundreds of times larger than before. At the same time, the conditions for survival would be hundreds of times better than before. As for safety, there was no problem at all. As long as he could obtain the protection of the White Army, what else could he have to be scared? The key is to obtain the full support of Xu Xingxia.

This is even more important than whether to believe in Changshengtian. After all, Changshengtian cannot directly reach out to manage the affairs, but Xu Xingxia can. Xu Xingxia's white-clothed army is even more practical than Changshengtian when necessary. In fact, with the introduction of Tibetan Buddhism, there are more and more people or tribes who are unwilling to believe in Changshengtian on the grassland. Even among the three major tribes, there are many powerful figures who betray the belief of Changshengtian.

Due to different beliefs, some bloody conflicts often broke out between the Tatars. Many people are worried that large-scale civil strife will break out within the Tatars. For example, several Tatar tribes that besieged the Aoyanga tribes believed in living Buddhas and were incompatible with Changshengtian. This is also one of the reasons why Aoyanga wants to escape. Because once the battle fails, pagans like him will definitely be chopped and fed to the eagle.

A smile that was hard to detect appeared on the corner of Xu Xingxia's mouth, and she said meaningfully: "What do you mean is that you want to migrate to Bayannur Grassland collectively? Or, I hope I will hand over Bayannur Grassland to you for management?"

Aoyangga hurriedly said: "We just want to move to Bayannur Grassland. We absolutely have no intention of dominating Bayannur Grassland. We also ask the master to accept it."

At the end, Aoyangga was so tearful that he was about to come out. He was so excited that he couldn't help but kneel down and said crying: "Master Qianhu, our Aoyangga tribe is sincerely surrendering!"

Xu Xingxia nodded and said, "What have you brought?"

Aoyangga hurriedly took out all the things on his body. This time he came to Ningxia Town for help. In addition to carrying some gold, silver and jewelry, there were also some documents and other documents. As a result, after several encounters, all the gold, silver and jewelry were spent. Now, the rest were only some wrinkled documents. One of them was the official documents of the Aoyangga tribe applying to the Ming court. This is the so-called letter of nationality.

At that time, the so-called letters of state were not limited to between countries. In fact, there were few real countries in the East at that time. More similar to the forces of the state. Their combination methods were diverse and could not be described in detail. Later, it extended to tribes of all sizes. The official documents they submitted to the Central Plains dynasty were often called letters of state. Generally speaking, when the court received these letters of state, they would hand them over to the Ministry of Rites for handling as appropriate.

The contents of the letter of nationality are divided into several types, including those who start a war, those who truce, those who seek peace, those who apply for trade, those who apply for signing alliances, and those who apply for voluntary submission, which is a whole lot. This letter of nationality in Aoyangga is to apply for voluntary submission. If there is no accident, such a letter of nationality is always welcomed by the court. Others have to take the initiative to surrender to themselves and accept their own leadership. You cannot not welcome them, right?

Of course, China's national conditions are always very complicated. The emperor himself probably appreciates this kind of national letter, and the imperial officials also appreciate it, but the border generals below may not appreciate it. Because the emperor's hobbies are face, expanding territory, making achievements, and surpassing his ancestors. If a large number of ethnic minorities actively apply for submission, it means that your influence is huge and can attract them to you. In the future, when you see your ancestors, you will also have the capital to show off.

However, the generals below want to give substantial help to others. For them, those nomadic peoples who apply to take the initiative to submit are simply beggars, who come to the door to extort. Well, they do not go to beg, but extortion, and they will not leave if they can't get anything. The so-called substantial help is actually three, either paying money, food, or sending troops. No matter which one is, they have to take out their own pockets. Nowadays, the landlords have no surplus grain, so who is willing to take out the things in their pockets to others?

Of course, if you have the ability of Li Chengliang in the past, it is not worth worrying. Li Chengliang used to occupy the Liaodong area, control tens of millions of acres of land, raises a total of 8,000 armed servants, all of whom are the most elite cavalry equipment and combat power in the entire East. With such awesome family background, it is naturally easy to take out something. On the other hand, if he doesn't give up a penny, no one dares to say anything.

Xu Xingxia casually browsed the national letters of the Aoyangga tribe. This so-called national letters were mostly translated by some Chinese people who had half a bucket of water. The sentences were basically not understood and the words were not meaningful. If no one explained them, I guess the talented people from the Ministry of Rites would be confused. There is no way, their cultural level is like this. Unless the Ming Dynasty sent special personnel to write national letters for them, their national letters would always be so ugly. After all, these nomadic peoples still have no culture!

After pondering for a moment, Xu Xingxia said slowly: "Aoyangga, tell me honestly, can your tribe bring together five hundred strong men?"

Aoyangga hurriedly said, "Of course! If the Qianhu Lord needs it, we Aoyangga can dispatch two thousand warriors at any time..."

Xu Xingxia shook her head, interrupted his speech, and said bluntly: "Five hundred are enough! Your two thousand are probably even the old men in their fifties and sixties and teenagers, all of them are gathered together!"

Aoyangga had no choice but to smile embarrassedly.

Xu Xingxia's speculation is indeed correct. The entire population of Aoyangga tribe is only more than 18,000. If two thousand cavalry are dispatched, all the men who can fight are indeed calculated. Due to frequent wars, the number of men in Aoyangga tribe is greatly insufficient. It would be great to eliminate the injured, disabled, and sick people.

Xu Xingxia said without any doubt: "I promise you to allow your tribe to migrate to Bayannur grassland! In addition, I will also help you form an elite cavalry of 500 people, all equipped with muskets. However, the command of this cavalry needs to be handed over to me!"

Aoyangga was overjoyed and hurriedly knelt down and said, "Thank you for your kindness!"

It is not difficult to hand over the 500 strong men to Xu Xingxia's command. As long as Xu Xingxia agrees to aid the Aoyangga tribe, these are not problems. Aoyangga is optimistic that as long as his tribe can migrate to the Bayannur grassland as he wishes, the population will increase by more than half in just over ten years. Among them, the number of strong men can increase by at least 3,000. In comparison, what is the 500 cavalry?

Xu Xingxia finally said: "You can negotiate with Deputy Yu Lijun for relevant procedures!"

Aoyangga hurriedly agreed to go. He was so excited that he was almost tripped by the threshold when he went out. However, he didn't care at all and hurriedly went there. Looking at her appearance, he felt as if Xu Xingxia was worried about remorse.

Tesna came out of nowhere and said with a smile: "Oh, have you really accepted this Oyanga?"

Xu Xingxia casually said, "Is there anything wrong?"

Tesna smiled and said, "There is nothing wrong, I'm afraid you will be upset in the future."

Xu Xingxia looked at her sideways. She found that this female fairy had no intention of seducing her. She wrapped her whole body tightly with a black leather jacket. However, seeing her plump and red lips, Xu Xingxia couldn't help but think of her wild appearance. This damn female demon has a very big contrast between people and people. I'm afraid that he will be defeated sooner or later. He said quietly: "What do you mean?"

Tesna said slowly, "On the grassland, there are actually not a few tribes that yearn for Ming. Especially those weak tribes, all of them hope that Ming will come forward to maintain their existence and status. They are bullied by the large tribes and live a hard life. They are so painful that they live like years. However, the Ming court has never accepted their request before, for fear of causing unnecessary trouble. After repeatedly rejecting them, they gradually gave up."

"Now, you have accepted the Aoyangga tribe's request for help and allowed them to migrate to Bayannur Grassland. Then, other tribes will definitely be moved. The Aoyangga tribe has gained great benefits, and of course others will be jealous. They will all try to migrate to Bayannur Grassland! If my guess is correct, in the next days, there will be a large number of tribal envoys who will come to see you secretly."

"But other large tribes will definitely be particularly disgusted with your behavior. Those weak tribes were originally dependent on them to survive, and they could obtain a lot of benefits from these weak tribes every year. If a small tribe is disobedient, the large tribe will destroy them directly. Now, they have all run away, and the interests of the large tribe will also be seriously damaged. Do you think they will let you go easily?"

Xu Xingxia said disapprovingly: "I offended Mo Rigen, what are you still worried about?"

Tesna shook her head and said, "This is not a question of whether it is worrying or not, it is a question of whether it is worth it. Is it necessary for you to provoke the entire Tatar group for a Oyanga tribe? What if the Tatars gathered their troops south?"

Xu Xingxia said without hesitation: "Of course, it is the general who comes to block the enemy, and the water comes to cover the enemy's earth!"

Tesna said with some concern: "Xu Xingxia, you have to think clearly. If the three major Tatar tribes jointly send troops, they can dispatch 200,000 to 300,000 cavalry at any time! Do you think the 200,000 to 300,000 cavalry is a small number?"

Xu Xingxia snorted coldly in her nostrils and said proudly: "If the Tatars really dispatched 300,000 cavalry, I, Xu Xingxia, would have to see and see if they have the ability to break Zhenyuan Pass!"
