With the arrival of spring, wild flowers in the Western Regions bloomed all over the mountains, and those flowers watered by blood looked particularly bright.&1t;/p>

It took only more than a month for the Ming army to pacify the Junggar.&1t;/p>

After a great war, the entire Junggar Basin restored order and tranquility again. With the help of the Ming court, Junggar herdsmen gradually began to resume production.&1t;/p>

At the same time, agricultural technicians from the pass also began to guide these Junggar herdsmen to engage in cotton planting. After some discussion and "dividing spoils", these herdsmen who were engaged in cotton planting were classified as the leaders of the Junggar tribe, Halahushu, and directly managed and taxed, and gave 50,000 households to the ruling quota and cotton planting land.&1t;/p>

Each cotton farmer gave 50 acres of land, and Halahuts became a landlord with 250,000 mu of cotton fields. Of course, these lands are not, but Halahuts can extract one-tenth of tax revenue from these lands.&1t;/p>

As for the problem of insufficient population, it can reproduce slowly. Although the Junggar tribe was beaten to cause heavy losses to adult men, there are still many teenagers, and the population will naturally recover in a few years.&1t;/p>

Letting the Junggar tribe engage in agriculture is also a good way to digest the overpopulation. With the promotion of ****, and allowing some Mongolians to become monks, there will basically be no overpopulation. If there is still an overpopulation, then go to the city to be a worker.&1t;/p>

As for other land suitable for growing cotton, it will be allocated to Han people who are willing to immigrate to the Western Regions to farm, and the rest will be opened by the Production Corps.&1t;/p>

A harmonious new post-war order was established in this way. Under this new order, the Ming Dynasty strictly restricted the armed forces of the Junggar tribe. Knives could be owned, but all bows and arrows had been handed over, and from then on, they could not be equipped with bows and arrows and long weapons. As the loser, the Junggar tribe accepted this condition when surrendered.&1t;/p>

The Junggar tribe also had self-knowledge at this time. After seeing the terrifying combat power of the Ming army, and being able to live a peaceful life next time, there was no idea of ​​rebellion.&1t;/p>

After taking over the border defense of the Junggar tribe, the Ming Dynasty officially bordered the Bukhara Khanate in Central Asia. The Bukhara Khanate and the Junggar tribe and Mongolia were very different, and the Central Asian region was seriously infiltrated by some extreme religions.&1t;/p>

As a time traveler, Zhu Youxiao naturally understood that the Mongolians and Han people could still live in peace in the same country. However, they had constant friction with those extreme religions.&1t;/p>

At this time, those extreme religions had penetrated into the Western Regions. Zhu Youxiao's Western Regions policies formulated by Zhu Youxiao was to resolutely crack down on these extreme religions.&1t;/p>

The temple was demolished and the scriptures were burned.&1t;/p>

What is extreme religion?&1t;/p>

It is a deceptive religion. It attributes all unexplainable things to a certain god. Through deceptiveness, people feel safe, and through deceptiveness, they achieve the purpose of being involved in politics.&1t;/p>

People will be confused in life, where do I come from?&1t;/p>

If you don't even know where you come from, you won't know where you are going.&1t;/p>

Faced with these unknown problems, people will feel fear and insecure. So some religions arise, and after some nonsense, they shape a certain kind of god.&1t;/p>

In contrast, Chinese Taoism is not a religion, and Taoism itself is not deceptive. When explaining those unknown things, Taoism gives a systematic theory to explain it. Therefore, the Five Dogs of Rice (Taoism) established in the Han Dynasty would die out because Taoism used Taoism as the core of religion and was not deceptive.&1t;/p>

The practice effect of Buddhism is similar to Taoism, but Buddhism has a certain degree of deception and will coax people to practice by promoting karma and retribution. Therefore, Buddhism is much better than Taoism. Of course, although Buddhism has a certain degree of deception, Buddhism is not very extreme. Moreover, after the convergence of the three religions in the Song Dynasty, Buddhism's explanation of the world view is basically the same as that of Taoism. However, the nouns are used differently.&1t;/p>

Compared to Taoism, Buddhism is more popular than those who have high understanding. Whether it is dull or unsatisfied, you can go in and practice. And for ordinary people with low qualifications, you say that cause and effect is like saying that one plus one does not equal two to primary school students. People can't understand it at all, and sometimes it's okay to coax it.&1t;/p>

Therefore, in the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youxiao only allows the existence of Taoism and Buddhism, and Buddhism must be localized Buddhism. Wusizang**** is only allowed to spread in Tibet and Mongolia.&1t;/p>

Those extreme religions must be eliminated resolutely, which may cause certain confusion. Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. Problems that can be solved by labor pains will never be left to become a disaster.&1t;/p>

For the bordering Bukhara Khanate, it will also be the target of elimination in the future. However, there is no time to pay attention to the Bukhara Khanate for the time being, so I just built a national defense line first.&1t;/p>

After the pacification of Junggar, Zhu Youxiao immediately sent three production corpses to the Western Regions. Two were sent to the Junggar Basin, one sent to the Turpan Basin, and one sent to the Hexi Corridor of Gansu.&1t;/p>

At the same time, Zhu Youxiao also sent four construction corpses to the Western Regions to build highways and water conservancy projects.&1t;/p>

Kaixi Regions first requires a certain infrastructure, and at the same time, it also requires certain industrial supporting facilities.&1t;/p>

Highways and water conservancy are necessary so that agricultural resources in the Western Regions can be developed. In addition, the Western Regions are developing animal husbandry and cotton planting, so there must be input of commercial grain. The Hexi Corridor in Gansu is a good commercial grain base.&1t;/p>

This year, the opening of the Hexi Corridor in Gansu has not been so thorough, and there are still many wastelands that have not been opened. However, compared to Shaanxi, the living conditions of the people in the Hexi Corridor in Gansu are relatively good.&1t;/p>

The Hexi Corridor is a snow-water irrigated agriculture, with strong disaster resistance and drought. It is not affected by drought. Because it rarely rains there, there is no big problem of drought or not, and it is all irrigated with snow water. As for floods, it is not good at all! It is impossible to cause floods if it rains a little more. It is a region with less rainfall.&1t;/p>

As long as the snow water irrigation facilities in the Hexi Corridor in Gansu are well built, the entire Hexi Corridor can become a commercial grain production area with bumper harvests every year.&1t;/p>

The purpose of the Agricultural Production Corps being arranged in the Hexi Corridor is to open up the agricultural resources here.&1t;/p>

The Hexi Corridor's commercial grain base is just matched with the agriculture in the Western Regions. At that time, the Western Regions are responsible for the production of cotton, wool and leather, and the Hexi Corridor is responsible for the production of grain.&1t;/p>

At that time, the combination of grain and meat, and the Western Regions will be able to plant some grain in scattered areas, basically forming a supply balance. Even if it is unbalanced, it doesn’t matter. You can transfer grain from the pass, and it will not be too hungry to death.&1t;/p>
