I am the prince of the Ming Dynasty, I don't give up

Chapter 431 Mingren is too vicious
"How could the Mongols receive such a great gift without doing anything? We assimilated the Mongols not to treat them as masters. They must pay a sufficient price for this," Zhu Houxuan said in a deep voice.

The room suddenly became quiet, and everyone listened to Zhu Houxuan's words quietly.
"The Mongols will pay a blood tax to the Ming Dynasty in the future. Everything they get today, they will have to repay with their blood and lives in the future." Zhu Houxuan's voice became increasingly low.

Zhu Houxuan's words made the people present feel horrified.
"This has been taken into consideration when the pastures were divided. Most of the pastures allocated to the Mongols can only feed about three people. If they want to get more pastures, they can only fight for the Ming Dynasty under its banner and expand its territory." Zhu Houxuan said softly.

The general who just said this nodded. He was very satisfied with this answer.
He also understood Zhu Houxun's implied meaning. If the Mongols wanted to expand the territory for the Ming Dynasty, they could only go west and north. These two directions were bitter and cold, and they were unwilling to expand the territory. It would be a good choice for you to leave it to the Mongols.

At this point, Zhu Houxuan revealed all of his plans for Mongolia, and the audience was caught up in a discussion.
Zhu Houxuan tried his best to establish a new order on the Mongolian grasslands because it was the lowest-cost way to rule Mongolia under the technological conditions of that era.

Zhu Houxuan also thought about building a railway deep in the Mongolian grasslands to strengthen control over the Mongols, but this plan was quickly rejected on the grounds that the cost was too high and the technical conditions were not met.

The Mongolian grassland is called grassland, but its geographical name is the Mongolian Plateau, so it is not flat, but has many hills. It is very difficult to build a railway, and the horsepower of the train is not enough. In addition, the population along the way is too small, and it is impossible to obtain enough commercial benefits. Therefore, it is not feasible to build a railway on the grassland at this time.
At the same time as this meeting, the Mongols under Ming control were given their own pastures and livestock.
"The Ming people are so vicious! They actually divided pastures and livestock among the herdsmen!" A middle-aged Mongolian man kicked over the low table in front of him and said angrily.

"Many of those pastures and livestock belong to this Khan. How dare those lowly herdsmen lay their hands on them?" the middle-aged Mongolian man continued.

"It's a sin that such good pastures and livestock have fallen into the hands of those herdsmen!"

This middle-aged Mongolian man is Barsborot, the third son of Dodayan Khan and the new Khan of Mongolia, who had disappeared for a year.

He disappeared more than a year ago because his hometown in Hetao was attacked by the Ming army. Without his own tribe, his strength was greatly reduced. He could not suppress the Mongolian tribes under him with just the title of Khan, so he simply left the stage of political struggle and secretly accumulated strength.
He has been gathering the Mongolian tribes that originally belonged to him for more than a year.
Barsborot was enfeoffed by Dayan Khan in the Hetao region, directly controlling the two large tribes of Tumed and Ordos. During its heyday, it had more than 100,000 people, and was a strong army.
Although they suffered heavy losses in the battle of Yingzhou, they were able to suppress other Tatar tribes.
But all this was destroyed by the Ming army's surprise attack.
More than 5 soldiers were captured by the Ming army, and the rest of the troops were dispersed. Most of them were incorporated into other Tatar tribes, and some found places to graze their own livestock.
Barsboroth has been relying on the title of Mongolian Khan to gather the scattered tribes for more than a year. After more than a year of hard work, he has gathered nearly 20,000 people. Although it cannot be compared with the previous prosperous period, it is still a force that cannot be underestimated.
Now they are hiding in the valleys of Yinshan Mountain, waiting for their chance to strike.
The reason why he ran to Yinshan was because it was the closest to the Hetao area. Barsborot wanted to gather more people, but many Mongolian tribes that had recruited his people would not let them go. He also understood that it was already the limit to gather so many people, so he set his sights on the people captured by the Ming army in the Hetao area.
In his opinion, the Ming army's garrison had been reduced to 2 cavalry, and the supervision of the captured Mongolian tribesmen had been relaxed a lot.
So he really couldn't help but set his mind on this.
So he sent people to contact his former followers, but the whole process did not go smoothly.
First of all, the captured young men and children were escorted to Tangshan for reform, and the rest were the elderly, the weak, women and children, which made his connection work very difficult.
Fortunately, the captured young and strong men were sent back, but the connection was not smooth because the Mongolian nobles among the captives did not come back. Barsboroth had always controlled the tribe through the Mongolian nobles at each level.

Now that these Mongolian nobles have not returned, his understanding and control over the captured personnel has become very low, which has caused him unexpected confusion.
However, he had a high reputation among his people, and the work of linking up was carried out despite some setbacks.
Balsborot was very happy these past two days, secretly thinking whether to take advantage of this opportunity to ambush the Ming cavalry.
However, just as he was planning various plans, the person sent to connect the two brought back such bad news.
"This move by the Ming people is too vicious! Before, we had united many herdsmen and agreed to start the rebellion together, but the Ming people started to divide the pastures and livestock. The families that had been united are now hesitant and finally decided not to come," said a man kneeling in front of Barsbrot.

"This bunch of ungrateful bastards! They have received the Golden Family's favor for so long, and now when the Golden Family needs them, they still dare to make excuses! It makes me so angry!" Barsbrot said angrily.

"Yes, those herdsmen are used to being poor and have never seen the world, so they were deceived by the false benevolence and righteousness of the Ming people," the man continued kneeling on the ground.

"A bunch of useless things!" Barsbrot cursed harshly.

"Khan, what should we do next?" The man lowered his head even more and asked carefully.

Barsbrot pondered for a while and said, "Although they are stupid, we still cannot abandon these people. They are just lost lambs. We must guide them back to the right path."

"How about this, I will sneak into the homes of those tribesmen with you this time. When a member of the Golden Family with Genghis Khan's blood appears in front of them, they will come to their senses and return to the right path."
