Suddenly, everyone's faces changed again.

They finally understood what Ye Chunqiu meant.

Ye Chunqiu wanted to treat them as a sharp knife.

To the west of the desert, there are countless countries and countless lands, but the land bordering the desert is actually not good. To the north of the desert is a continuous ice field, and to the west is the Gobi and Plateau.

In fact, in the past, the Tatars had no benefit in conquering there, because many places were rare, and the Tatars were mainly grazing. In that kind of place, they could not store animal husbandry on a large scale. Naturally, their interest in these lands could not make them have too much interest in occupying them.

But now it's different.

In essence, the sphere of influence of any nation depends on its daily routine.

It is difficult for Han people to survive outside the pass because the Han people mainly farm and the desert is not suitable for farming. Therefore, even when the Han people are strong, it is difficult for them to leave the pass and live.

Ye Chunqiu solved this problem by using commercial methods, allowing the Han people to find that grazing is extremely profitable, so everyone flocks to grazing.

The same is true for the Tatars. Even if many Hu people entered the pass, they eventually retreated. The fundamental reason is that the Hu people's economy lies in grazing. Even if they enter the pass as rulers, they quickly discovered many discomforts. Apart from being parasites or running away after grabbing, they could not rely on getting used to farming.

Those Gobi, those ice fields, and those plateaus are actually meaningless to the Tatars, because the Tatars need abundant aquatic plants to raise large-scale animal husbandry. Therefore, as strong men in the desert, they naturally occupied the best grasslands in the grasslands. As for other places, some failed peoples, barely survived in the cracks in the barren land.

So... Ye Chunqiu still uses economic methods to solve this problem. He used Han people who had changed their lifestyle to grazed in the grasslands of the desert. These pastures not only produced huge economic benefits, but also changed the lifestyle of the Han people, making this desert completely used by Zhenyuan Country.

Now, he is still changing the lifestyle of the Tatars. The useless lands that used to be have economic benefits. You don’t need to grazle, you just need to conquer them all the way.

The conquered land belongs to Zhenguo Mansion, and Zhenguo Mansion uses this land to continue to resettle the countless Han people who have left the resignation. Not only that, you no longer have to use grazing to maintain your survival, because you can eat and wear warmth by being the sharp knife of Zhenguo Mansion. Every inch of land obtained by Zhenguo Mansion is valuable. The ice field may be of no use to farming and nomadic peoples, but there are countless mines and endless forests, and these will turn into the development momentum of Zhenguo Mansion's industry and commerce. Zhenguo Mansion can use railways to connect all these barren lands together, allowing the Tatars to conquer Zhenguo Mansion, and then the Han merchants and herdsmen will enter here continuously through the railway, logging and mining, establishing market towns, and establishing one commercial base after another.

The more land the Tatars obtained, the richer they became, and the wider the territory of the Zhenguo Mansion, the countless resources they received and more immigrants were able to resettle.

The so-called silver paid to the Tatars is actually an internal cycle. When the Tatars get the silver, they must buy weapons and food, as well as clothes to keep warm, and countless ammunition. These silver finally flowed into the hands of the merchants in Zhenguo Mansion. In order to solve the needs of the Tatars, the merchants had to produce on a large scale. The production required population. The silver began to flow, and the silver flowed into the hands of the craftsmen, and finally became food, clothing, housing and transportation. The huge profits left by the merchants eventually fell into the hands of the Zhenguo Mansion. The reason is very simple, because merchants expanded production and countless minerals, so the mining franchise of this mine and the deforestation of trees also required silver.

In this process, the Tatars changed their lifestyles, but they could obtain stable profits through conquest. In the past, they could not make stable profits. Even if they plundered the cities of the Ming Dynasty, they not only obtained salt and iron pots, but also countless consumables in life. Even if they got silver, the value of the silver was not high because the Han people did not trade with them. Because the smuggled merchants would make huge profits from it. A steel knife may cost a few taels of silver in the Ming Dynasty. When they arrived at Tatars, they only plundered hundreds of them. They just became rich for a while. It took them not long before they returned to poverty. But now, the Zhenguo Mansion not only bought the land they conquered, but also bought the materials they plundered, and even gave many rewards to allow fair trade with them. This allowed the Tatars to abandon grazing and specialize in conquest.

As for Ye Chunqiu's choice, it was very simple. With the development of industry and commerce, Zhenguo Mansion was like a monster, requiring countless minerals and countless markets. But if the Zhenguo New Army went on an expedition to open up a new market, a problem would arise, that is, killing chickens with a ox knife. There are not many powerful countries in this world, especially in this era, if this new army armed to the teeth went on an expedition, it would cost amazing. You must know that this is an army created by the supply of modern troops. When a cannon fired, it would be an authentic gold ten thousand taels.

Since that's the case, let the Tatars do it. The Tatars' cavalry has high mobility and simple supplies. Moreover... even if there is a loss, Ye Chunqiu will not be a pity at all. It is a great thing to use other people's blood to exchange for other people's power.

As long as the railway extends there after conquest, it will be within the territory of Zhenguo Mansion. A large number of merchants and herdsmen flock in. After decades, markets and settlements will rise.

Ye Chunqiu looked at Batumonk and continued, "For you, this choice is not bad. You can rest assured that since the Tatar tribe surrendered to me, you will naturally not let you shed all your blood. If you encounter a tough bone, the new army can go over immediately. All you have to do is to sweep all the way. With the new army as your backing, who can stop you? As long as you are willing to use your life, you will no longer have to live the difficult days of the past. Life is rich and only in front of you. Even your descendants, if they are unwilling to follow the army and move to the Zhenguo Mansion to live under the rule of the Zhenguo Mansion, that's nothing wrong!"
