Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty - Vol 2 Chapter 2119

In fact, the Yi Nan previously analyzed nothing. For thousands of years, the Central Plains dynasty has changed from generation to generation, and there has been an emperor through the ages, and there has also been a faint emperor, but there has never been a situation where the Central Plains dynasty has completely controlled the grassland!

On the contrary, the nomads in the north have almost always been the strong enemies of the Central Plains dynasty. Sometimes they reconciled with the Central Plains dynasty in order to obtain a large amount of living materials, and sometimes went south to plunder, which brought huge disasters to the Central Plains dynasty, and sometimes even extinction.

When King Qin swept Liuhe, he looked at He Xiongzai? But facing the grassland, Qin Shihuang could only sigh with excitement! Although Meng Tianbei had more than seven hundred li from the Huns, which greatly frustrated the Xiongnu’s spirit, the Qin Empire still built the Great Wall.

The Great Wall means defensive, and defense is often done when offensive is not possible. The Great Wall also means borders. The Central Plains dynasty used the Great Wall as its boundary in the north!

Although Baiyue and Lingnan were served in the south, the overall strategy of the Qin Empire in the north was to defend and fix the border. However, all generations have adopted the Qin political system, and the Qin Dynasty played this way, and later generations of the Central Plains dynasty could only play this way. It can be said that it is path-dependent, or it can be said that it is copied, but the Central Plains Dynasty has never been able to break through the front line of the Great Wall, and it has always been a defensive posture in the north.

This is true of Emperor Wu of the Han, and the same is true of the Western Han and Eastern Han after Han Wu!

After 　　, there was a Northern Wei Dynasty, which unified the entire northern grassland, but the Northern Wei Dynasty was founded by the nomadic people of Xianbei, and the Northern Wei Dynasty also began to build the Great Wall in the north in the later period. Therefore, once the Northern Wei Dynasty became the Central Plains dynasty, it had to follow Qin Shihuang’s routine.

Along the long river of history, and further on, according to the original historical “script”, Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty was called the emperor in the Central Plains and the Khan in the grasslands. The Tang Empire opened the Yenisei River and the state capital Wanli Grassland!

However, Datang’s strategy on the grassland is not to rule absolutely, but to support the pro-Tang forces and gradually assimilate the grassland tribes!

Li Shimin’s strategy was very wise, and the method was also very right, but the great Tang’s majesty was terminated by Emperor Xuanzong…

The Song Dynasty after the Tang Dynasty, let alone, the Northern Song Dynasty even lost the land of Henan that Emperor Wu Han had taken, that is, today’s Ningxia. Therefore, the Northern Song Dynasty basically returned to the age of the Qin Empire.

Jurchen Daikin is also a nomadic people. Before entering the Central Plains, he was the overlord of the grassland. But what about after entering the Central Plains? The Jurchens became Chinese quickly, and they couldn’t even go back to their hometown in the Northeast. For the northern grasslands, the **** slaughter was at first, then relied on the Tatars to contain them, and finally the Great Wall was still built.

The Mongols are the most vigorous, but the Yuan Dynasty is only a part of the Great Mongol Empire. Therefore, the Mongolian aristocracy has not been thoroughly sinicized, and has always maintained the nature of the grassland. Therefore, although Emperor Dayuan was in the Central Plains, he was concerned about the grassland. Therefore, the Yuan Dynasty’s rule of the Central Plains was so extensive and extensive that it would forget to collect taxes until the Southern Song Dynasty was so extensive.

However, once the Central Plains were reintegrated, the Mongols could only withdraw northward immediately. Because these people have never regarded Zhongyuan as their home. The owner of the Central Plains didn’t welcome him anymore, and even drove him out with a stick, so I hurried back to the grassland to sing and sing horses!

After the nomads conquered the Central Plains, they will definitely encounter two choices, which is also a dilemma: one is to quickly Sinicize, and then successfully enter the master, but will give up the grassland; the other is to refuse Sinicization, and then it is difficult to gain a foothold, so sooner or later they will be driven away.

Why did the Manchus realize the unification of the Central Plains and the grasslands?

The emperor of the Manchu and Qing dynasties came up with a trinity, called the emperor in the Central Plains, called the Great Khan in the Mongolian grasslands, and called Manjushri Bodhisattva reincarnation on the snow-covered plateau. Therefore, the rule of the Manchu nobles is quite powerful. However, there is still the question: Do you want to Sinicize the Manchu people?

This is a must. Without Sinicization, you can’t stand firm in Central Plains. But how should the Sinicized Manchu rule the grasslands? Can the grassland be solved by relying on the triune title and the story of the three titles?

A lama temple wins 100,000 soldiers!

This sentence is the understanding of the Man Qing emperor, and it is also the strategy of the Man Qing emperor to rule the grassland! The cost of conquering the grasslands for the people of the Qing Dynasty was much lower than that of the people of the Ming Dynasty!

Why didn’t the ancient Central Plains dynasty change as an emperor who dared to rule the grasslands? It’s not that I don’t go, but I can’t!

In addition to those mentioned by Yi Nan, there is a deeper reason, that is, the Han Dynasty in the Central Plains and the Prairie Dynasty are essentially different in the logic of the bottom!

In ancient China, what are Han people?

Han people are defined by culture, specifically Confucian culture. Anyone who accepts Confucian culture and lives under the guidance of Confucian culture was regarded as Han in ancient times.

Confucian culture first exists as a daily ethical standard for the general public. Individuals who follow Confucian culture must live in a specific structure of interpersonal relationships. The specific interpersonal relationship required by Confucian culture requires a relatively stable family organization, and the premise is settlement.

The prerequisite for settlement is farming, and farming has a rigid constraint, which is precipitation.

In ancient society, due to the rainfall requirements of farming, if the Han people crossed the north of the Great Wall and wanted to live, they had to be nomadic, otherwise it would be a dead end. Once nomadic, it means that the Central Plains-style interpersonal relationship structure has collapsed, and it is no longer possible to live according to the Confucian way. And as long as your lifestyle is nomadic, you are not Han Chinese.

For the Central Plains Dynasty, it is fine to send troops to expel nomads, but to rule Mobei, troops must be stationed. The logistics of the garrison cannot be transported by the Central Plains, and the journey is too long.

It is precisely the dependence of the Confucian culture of the Central Plains dynasty on geography that makes the Central Plains dynasty no longer reach the north of the Great Wall and can only develop in the Central Plains!

In layman’s terms, it is probably the vast expanse of grassland. For the rulers of the Central Plains, it is a barren alienated land. It is not worthy of their entire country to attack and completely control it, because even if it is defeated It’s not of much use, and if you have to send troops to guard it, it’s completely outweighed by the gains!

After all the chiefs of the Tie Le tribes expressed their intention to resist Jieli together~www.mtlnovel.com~ several people briefly discussed the next plan, and then went to “go back to each house and find each mother”!

It is indeed a special period now. They and tribal chiefs have gathered together for a long time, and it is easy to be spotted by Jie Li’s spies. Therefore, Qili Heli and others did not delay in Xue Yantuo’s department. After they walked out of the camp, , A few people disguised themselves and left Xue Yantuo’s department.

It’s just that, although these chiefs are very careful, they slightly underestimated Jie Li’s spies, or in other words, they underestimated Jie Li’s wolf guard!

“Oh~! Manniu, you can watch for a while, I’ll go to the cottage!”

At the exit of Xue Yantuo camp, a sergeant suddenly covered his stomach and cried out in pain. It seemed that he had eaten something and made his stomach trouble. The man yelled to his companion, and then bent over and hurried away.

However, he did not go to the hut, turned around, came to the foot of a hillside to the west of Xue Yantuo’s Department, put his thumb and index finger into his mouth, and blew a whistle. After a while, a black man was not far away. The robe man flashed over.

The sergeant hurriedly greeted him, without talking nonsense, and said directly: “Hurry up and report to the Great Khan, the chief of the Tiele Nine Tribes came to Xue Yantuo’s department to discuss with Yi Nan, as if they were planning some plan. They are staying in Xue Yantuo’s department. It took nearly half an hour to leave!”

“good!”

The black robe man nodded, only said one word “good”, and then turned and left. After a few breaths, he disappeared. Obviously, martial arts are good!

And the sergeant looked around in place now, and after confirming that he was not exposed, he returned to his “post” again.
