Chapter 399
Two hundred years after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, it was like a dream to be granted a marquis without military merit.
Hou Xuan's grace of others suddenly inspired everyone's fighting spirit.
"Now the goal of seizing a wife and a child is right in front of me, what else can I be afraid of? Let go of my hands and feet and work hard on the grassland. This time, unlike the Northern Expedition, no matter Hu Han, as long as we unite people, we will be our people. Mongolia has suffered heavy losses in recent years, and there are quite a few people who have lost their shelter. If they can surrender, they must be treated equally. In the future, when I fight, you can pull out a Mongolian soldier. But one thing must be remembered that since you surrender, you must treat everyone equally. Not only will it not be discriminated against and suppressed, but it is absolutely not allowed to be extra tolerant and preferential. That will not only not bring others' support, but will create barriers. Do you understand? Only when everyone treats them as Han people, will they feel belonging over time."
After all, Hou Xuanyan is not a narrow nationalist. Even though the Han people are strong, they never take the initiative to destroy the foreign tribes. And the monarch who has always had great achievements and great talents and wise men did not bully the weak for no reason. This is the difference between us and other nations.
The kingly way is to educate all directions. If you become stronger, you will yell to destroy this and that, just like the book after the Meiji Restoration. It is a typical mentality of being poor and being weak. The poor are suddenly rich and the villain will not have any good ending. The vast China should have its own demeanor.
Of course, those who provoke trouble first cannot be spared. For example, the Ten Mongolian tribes and North Korea who entered the pass to assist in the war.
A young official who looked a little strong, although wearing civil servant clothes, looked like a military general. He stood up and asked, "Prince, will the Mongols be revenged for the hatred of entering the pass to assist the Qing Dynasty and the bloody battle in Xuzhou be revenged?"
He was the first group of students selected by the Liehuo Camp to enter the Jinling Martial Arts Hall. Tens of thousands of his life-and-death brothers died at the Xuzhou Blood Station. After hearing Hou Xuanyan's words, he couldn't help but stand up and ask.
Everyone else was worried about him, and Hou Xuanyan laughed and said, "Why don't you report it? Didn't Chahar be destroyed directly? I'm talking about the wandering Hu people on the grassland, not all the Mongolians. There were ten families who sent troops into the pass through forty-nine Mongolian banners, and Chahar has been wiped out. What do you think the others should do?"
"'Those who violate the powerful Han Dynasty in a clear way will be punished even if they are far away', of course, are revenge. Our Northern Expedition Army is strong and powerful, and with the power of victory, why worry about not being able to scatter the grassland."
Hou Xuanyan's face changed and he scolded: "Silly! You have been studying in the martial arts lecture hall for a year, what is that knowledge?"
The young official was dissatisfied and his neck was pounding.
Hou Xuanyan cursed: "How big is the grassland? Do you know? I sent the Northern Expedition Army out of seclusion. Did you go to hide and seek on the grassland? Hundreds of thousands of people arrived there, supplies, weapons, money, and how much manpower and material resources are needed? Have you ever thought about it? What is the enemy in Liaodong? Have you ever thought about it? Idiot."
The reprimanded official then lowered his head and said, "The prince taught me a lesson."
Hou Xuanyan's face slowed down and continued, "Although the ten Mongolian tribes entered the pass, it caused us some trouble in Xuzhou, it was a great thing for us. What's the solution? He only gave us the righteousness of sending troops! As long as you gain a foothold in Chahar, we can use this as an excuse to gradually erode the entire grassland. Instead of sending troops to wander around the grassland, they really escaped. Can our hundreds of thousands of troops catch up with the cavalry?
Hehe, as long as we gradually erode the grassland and take all their territory for ourselves little by little, are we still afraid that they will not be in a hurry? If they are anxious, they will take the initiative to find us, so that they can have the initiative when they fight. Or if you develop slowly and find that your territory has reached Kobudo, you can raise your arms and shout: Kobudo dog thieves entered the pass to assist the Qing Dynasty in their early years, and have always been our great enemy, so they cannot let them go; if they destroy Kobudo, gather the people enslaved by them, and then continue to develop. One day, they will expand their territory and encounter Tannu Wulianghai again, and then use slogans to conquer them.
In this way, the entire grassland will be brought into our hands, and there will be a dawn. Moreover, the Mongolian tribes have been biting each other for so many years, and the hatred between them is deeper than that of us. It is difficult for them to give up prejudices and unite together. If you say, bringing hundreds of thousands of people into the Northern Expedition with them will definitely force them to reunite. I don’t know how much more effort it will take to attack the grassland."
