Chapter 9 Manchu and Han intermarriage? (1)
Chapter 9: Intermarriage between Man and Han? (I)
Shengjing was covered in silver and was particularly enchanting. The territory of the Ming Dynasty has now become the capital of the Jin people. In the hands of the Jin people, it has become increasingly prosperous and has already had the atmosphere of a capital of a country. This is a great irony, satirizing the incompetence and cowardice of the Ming Dynasty.
Others occupy their own country and city, and build the city so prosperously, and the people live and work in peace. Isn’t this irony or what?
In Qingning Palace, a middle-aged man in a bright yellow robe was lying comfortably on a huge tiger skin. He knelt beside him. The gorgeous and dignified woman was staring at her man affectionately and silently. The tenderness of her eyes was enough to melt any man.
"Shan, I haven't combed your hair for some time!" The beautiful woman was dressed gorgeously, and her eyes were filled with charming warmth. Obviously, it was sent by the man in front of her, and only to this man.
"So, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The man opened his eyes and gave a gratifying smile.
The beautiful woman leaned over happily, stretched out her hands with a clever way, untied the man's braid in a few strokes, then gently broke it apart, picked up the glass wood comb, and slowly relaxed.
The man in a bright yellow robe was Huang Taiji, the supreme Tianconghan of the Later Jin Dynasty, and the beautiful woman beside him was naturally his favorite concubine Jin Zhezhe.
Now that he annexed North Korea, his national strength has been greatly enhanced. However, Huang Taiji has a heart-wrenching problem, that is, the Great Jin Kingdom under his control is actually Han and Koreans, and even the number of Mongolians is increasing year by year. Although he now has the most powerful military power, he has ruled the great clan with small clans. History has proved that small clans are easily swallowed and assimilated by large clans. So what about a powerful Mongolia? It only occupied the Han people's country for less than a hundred years and was driven back to the northern grassland by the Han people. If the Great Jin really wants to compete for the Central Plains and compete for the world, then the Jurchens must first turn into a large population clan, otherwise once they enter the siege of thousands of Han people, the Jurchens will be the second Mongolians.
How can we quickly expand the population of the Jurchens? Encourage the remaining people to let Jurchen men take Han people, Mongolian and Korean women, marry Jurchen women to Han people, Mongolian and Koreans, so that half of the offspring born are from Jurchen blood. Then they will educate and train them to realize the nobility and glory of being Jurchens. From then on, the Jurchens will be like snowballs, growing bigger and bigger. As long as we persist, there will be no Han people, Mongolians or Koreans in the world, leaving only one Jurchens. This is not a brand new nation, its name should be: Manchus.
The idea is good, and the method is also right. This is indeed an extremely effective method for ethnic integration or merger. Many ancient nations disappeared in the long river of history because of this. However, Huang Taiji did not realize one thing, that is culture and history. This is the key to the inheritance of a nation. Without its own culture and history or its own culture and history are too weak, then doing so is undoubtedly sending a sheep into the tiger's mouth. Not only did the tiger not beat it, but it also paid off its own life.
Of course, if Huang Taiji is given hundreds of years, he may be able to succeed, but for a civilization that has been passed down for thousands of years, his little civilization will seem pale and powerless, which is ridiculous.
And a ridiculous and shameless nation, it thought it had developed for thousands of years, arrogantly believed that it had surpassed the nation that gave it civilization and education and launched a war. As a result, it was defeated. The destruction of a powerful civilization was never possible to be achieved by external forces. Only the self-destruction of civilization is the real source of destruction.
When the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, it was only more than 300 years since it entered the pass. It was hard work, like walking on thin ice, but in the end it could not escape the fate of destruction. External forces were just cause, and the small civilization tried to control the great civilization as a result.
And the so-called destiny belongs to nothing but bullshit, and all it is just a situation of storms and clouds!
One white hair, two white hair, but now there are more than a dozen white hairs. As a wife, Zhezhe saw that her husband was in his prime, but the white hair on his head was increasing day by day. He felt extremely distressed, and his movements in his hands became more and more gentle.
"My dear concubine, is there more white hair on Ben Han's head?" Huang Taiji asked with his eyes closed.
Zhezhe's hand shook slightly and did not make a sound, but he was still caught by the keen Huang Taiji and said slowly: "Since my Dajin founded, my country's strength has been growing stronger and stronger, and now he has ruled millions of people and has more than one million armors. The Southern Ming Dynasty has always been a major concern for my Dajin. However, the people have deep foundations, tens of millions of people, and many soldiers and generals. Although they are in their twilight years, they are not even able to fight against us Dajin. Therefore, Fan Aiqing reminded Ben Khan to expand his strength first and slowly grow stronger. When the time is ripe, he will then move south to the Central Plains to establish the foundation of his ancestors forever."
"National affairs, my daughter's family knows these things, but Zhezhe knows that the eagle will eventually fly high for a day, and the blue sky is his destination." Zhezhe said softly. As a king, if he has no ambition, he will be replaced sooner or later. Zhezhe firmly believes that her husband Huang Taiji is an outstanding king and he will definitely realize his dream.
"Report to the Khan, Grand Secretary Xifu, Fan Wencheng asks for a visit!"
"Well, let them come here directly." Huang Taiji said.
After a while, Xifu and Fan Wencheng came together and saw Huang Taiji and Zhezhe knelt down and bowed.
"Grandmaster Xifu, Fan Wencheng meets the Great Khan and the Great Concubine Jin." Although Huang Taiji had long wanted to be emperor, he was not yet, so he still used the past.
"Two my dear friends, please calm down!" Huang Taiji valued these two people quite well, and he did not dare to neglect the etiquette at all.
"Thank you!" the two of them said in unison.
"Come here together, is there something big happening?" After the Korean War, Huang Taiji followed Fan Wencheng's advice, cared for surrendering the people, cultivated martial arts, and cultivated his health. There was basically no war in the country, so naturally there was no big event.
"I received news from my nephew Sony yesterday. The Southern Ming Emperor suddenly issued an edict, summoning about one-third of the generals and officials from the country to Beijing to report their duties and participate in a general study class. Originally, the Southern Ming Emperor's many strange behaviors in the past two years have become commonplace, but this time it seems that there is another purpose. The old minister discussed with Lord Fan and came to report to the great khan." Xi Fu said.
Huang Taiji pondered for a while, but didn't think of any reason. Instead, he asked Fan Wencheng and said, "Fan Aiqing, what do you think about this?"
"The Emperor of Southern Ming is different from any emperor in the history of the Ming Dynasty. It can be seen from his actions in the past two years that this is an emperor who does not follow the common sense. He does not care about the ancestral system and secular etiquette. Therefore, many gentry officials in China dare not speak out because he has the seventh level of military power in the country and the economy. But the blame is that he is not an emperor who charges intensive taxes to satisfy his selfish desires. His love for the people is rare in the world. Because of this, even those dissatisfied gentry bureaucrats dare to act rashly, and he always acts with all kinds of weirdness. In the face of internal pressure, he can still give in. He can actually have such imperial skills at a young age. He is really the enemy of my Dajin!" Fan Wencheng said.
"What Mr. Fan means is that this may be another conspiracy of the Emperor of Southern Ming?" Huang Taiji said in surprise. He could not have thought that the young king Fan Wencheng, who was only in his early twenties, gave such a high evaluation, and he felt a little unhappy.
"Khan, Emperor Nanming's move must have profound meaning. These generals are definitely not as simple as reporting on their duties. Participating in that study class may be the true intention of the Emperor Nanming." Fan Wencheng said slowly.
"What Fan Aiqing means is that Nan Ming is determined to train these generals?" Huang Taiji said in surprise.
"If the old minister expected it is not bad, that's exactly what he said!" Fan Wencheng thought that Nan Ming's move was so powerful. If these generals were systematically trained, their ability to lead troops would inevitably reach a huge level after they came out. If they persisted, then the source of energy would continue to send more qualified generals to the Nan Ming army. In this way, the talented generals of the Later Jin Dynasty might be far from being an opponent. If the Khan persuaded him to organize such a study class and train the generals of the Later Jin Dynasty to ensure the victory of the future conquest of the Central Plains.
"There are many soldiers in the Southern Ming Dynasty. If one or two talents like Yuan Chonghuan were cultivated among these generals, I, Dajin, would be in danger of destroying the country!" Xifu was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this. His words were definitely not exaggerating, but a real threat.
"My Dajin and Nanming are deadly enemies, and the two countries will eventually survive. Many generals in China do not have enough understanding of Nanming, and many people even think that the Southern people are weak and arrogant. If this continues, once the war begins, I Dajin will suffer a loss." Fan Wencheng also said.
"What if the two beloved ministers mean?" Huang Taiji asked.
"Study, we will also run a military officer school and hire teachers to teach them military tactics." Fan Wencheng said firmly.
"Okay, okay, just do it this way. My Dajin once defeated the Southern Ming Dynasty many times. As long as my brave generals learned the military tactics of the Southern people, they could know themselves and enemies and win every battle. This is the strength of the Southern people, and we must learn it!" Huang Taiji said excitedly. How could he refuse a good thing that could strengthen his army?
The monarch and ministers finalized some details of the military officer school, and then Xifu and Fan Wencheng left happily.
In fact, Fan Wencheng had long wanted to imitate Tongzhou Military Academy to build such a school in the Later Jin Dynasty, but he had never found a suitable opportunity to give advice. And even if it was proposed, it would be left alone under the opposition of Daishan and others. Moreover, Daishan and the Later Jin nobles were very discriminatory to Han ministers. Fan Wencheng at most had some power in government affairs. If he intervened in the army, no matter whether it was right or wrong, he would be attacked by Daishan and others. Therefore, he simply said nothing. This time he successfully convinced Xifu, and took advantage of Zhu Youjian's opportunity to implement the military region reform to make suggestions on Huang Taiji and explain the interests of the interests. Finally, Huang Taiji accepted this suggestion.
Huang Taiji also issued a series of marriage policies based on his own ideas. The new policy is determined. The Jurchens or Mongolians can marry Han and Korean women without restrictions on the basis of having already taken their own women as their wives, but their status is not as good as Jurchen women and Mongolian women. If Han or Koreans want to marry Jurchen women or Mongolian women as their wives, they can only end up in one end. Unless one dies, the other party can remarry or remarry. In addition, children are encouraged, and men and women are not distinguished, and corresponding reward policies have been formulated. This policy was introduced. The Kimura immediately ushered in a peak period of fertility. In the next three years, millions of babies will be born. Although the birth rate is very high, the ones who die are also very serious. Less than half of these babies can grow up and become adults in the end.
Because of this policy, the policy of Manchu and Han intermarriage will never exist again in the future. History has played a huge joke for everyone.
Of course, many Jurchen nobles who insist on pure bloodlines also readily support this policy. As long as one or two descendants of pure bloodlines are left behind, their mission of inheriting the seeds will be completed. The next thing is that they can marry Han girls. You must know that in the eyes of the Jurchens, all the Han girls in the southerners have skin as snow as snow and are as beautiful as flowers. They have long been salivating. In the past, they can only play with them, but they can only sneak in. Now, they can marry them at home with legitimate reasons. They will no longer need to hug a rough body and sleep with them. Instead, they will be delicate, tender and ecstatic.
Of course, no one can object to this, but the objection is invalid. Except for the compulsory policy of Han men marrying Jurchen or Mongolian women, the rest are all voluntary. If you don’t do it, it’s your business and it won’t stop others!
Zhu Yinglong didn't know the changes in the Later Jin Dynasty, let alone he was in a state of anxiety at the moment. The reason was that when Magu returned to the palace, he actually brought Li Yao into the palace and sent someone to tell her that Li Yao would live with her in the Yonghe Palace for some time in the future.
