Chapter 518: The Second Emperor of Liyan and Huang is like in Eastern Siberia


The current Rakshasa country, that is, Tsarist Russia, to be precise, is the Romanov dynasty, the emperor is relatively weak, and the big nobles are in power.This is similar to the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty.However, there is a difference that the Wanli Emperor did not willingly give power to the scholars, but resisted in a soft and violent way.At this time, the Russian Tsar Mikhail took the initiative to delegate power to the great nobles.However, the Russian aristocracy was not happy to see the Ming Empire's westward behavior, and even tried to make them give up their interests in Siberia and even east of Siberia.For the great Russian aristocracy now relied on the expensive fur and timber export trade from Siberia, and reaped a great deal of profit from Europe.Therefore, the great nobleman Morozov also echoed: "What Your Majesty said is that these arrogant, arrogant, and ignorant Orientals should be whipped by justice!"

”"Siberia and even the east of Siberia should be the territory of my Rakshasa country!

And those barbarians of the East should also accept our rule!

”The great nobleman Yeperitai also echoed and said."

We should immediately convene an all-Russian congress of gentlemen to discuss military action on the issue of sending troops to the East, recovering Yakutsk, and annexing the whole of the East!

Because we now rely entirely on furs and timber from Siberia and the natives east of Siberia, we cannot just watch the invasion of us by this Eastern Empire. ”"In addition, we cannot accept the unreligious Eastern barbarians to live in our territory, we should drive them out of our territory, kill them all, and use them as fertilizer!"

The great nobleman Vasily followed."

But according to Andrei, their firearms are very advanced and they have been prepared for us for a long time, and I think even if we are going to start a war, we should be cautious and think about whether we are their opponents or not."

The great nobleman Kutuzov couldn't help but say a word at this time."

Andrei was only afraid of the defeat because of the defeat, will God favor a group of non-religious barbarians, I don't think so!

Even if they may have the best muskets, they can't be as powerful as my Russia, and don't forget, we're a big country in Europe!

Although a year ago the war with Poland suffered a crushing defeat, it is not to say that the strength to teach the barbarians has been lost. ”Morozov said at this time, and said: "It's decided!"

Convening of the All-Russian Congress of the Gentry!

Agree on the dispatch of troops. ”......

"The Rakshasa country needs a lot of fur and wood in exchange for a lot of benefits, but I also need a lot of fur and wood in the Ming Dynasty, after the people of the dynasty are rich, the demand for fur is increasing day by day, and the demand for gardens and mansions is also increasing day by day, not including all kinds of nourishing herbs such as ginseng and bear paws, why should the wealth of the entire Beishan and even Siberia be handed over to these greedy and barbaric foreigners!"

”After the Ming Dynasty annexed the city of Yakutsk, the tsar of the Rakshasa Kingdom and the nobles of the court naturally did not know about the westward expansion of the Ming Dynasty so quickly.Although the above article described the reaction of the Rakshasa Kingdom and the Tsar and the nobles of the court, the Ming Dynasty was actually dealing with this conflict between the two countries provoked by the Ming Dynasty himself earlier than them.Therefore, the Auxiliary Minister Zhu Xieyuan also mentioned in the Privy Council that he would continue to compete with the Rakshasa State for the interests in Siberia.At the same time, after Mao Wenlong occupied the city of Yakutsk, he swept several cities built by the Rakshasa people, and in mid-August, in addition to the more than 500 people who stayed in Yakutsk and various nearby cities, he personally returned to the Huo City built by the Ming Dynasty in the area of Okhotsk in the later generations.And Zhang Pan, the chief instructor of the Beishan Command Department and the political envoy of Zuobu, who was stationed in Yakutsk, became the military and political chief of the Ming Dynasty here.According to Zhu Youxiao's edict, Zhang Pan and his more than 500 Ming officers and soldiers established the Ming ruling system here.The first is to establish a tax system and a trading system, and the Ming Dynasty came to Yakutsk this time to hire a group of natives as missionary teams, so that they could take advantage of their own advantages of being of the same race and descent to announce the policies of the Ming Dynasty to these primitive inhabitants.When the taxes of the primitive inhabitants here were much lower than those of the Rakshasa Kingdom, and the Ming did not enslave them, only traded with them, and the taxes collected were only used to protect their safety and educate them, so that they could get out of trouble, they were also very willing to accept the rule of the Ming Dynasty.Although they did not really believe that the Ming collected their taxes in kind in order to have money to protect them and help them, they had to admit that the Ming were indeed much more civilized than the Rakshasa Kingdom, at least they did not restrict their freedom of labor, and did not forcibly take their women and children into slavery.Secondly, according to Zhu Youxiao's requirements, it is necessary to use some cultural symbols to show that this is the territory of the Ming Dynasty.According to the will, Zhang Pan wants to carry out the ritual of sacrificing to the heavens and the earth here, just like Huo Quai's wolf Juxu Mountain in history, and use some Chinese etiquette to influence the local people, so that the primitive inhabitants here can see what is the gift of China.Of course, this is not enough, Zhang Pan also has to set up a monument here to record this matter, in order to show that this place has been owned by the Ming Dynasty, and so that future generations have a place to pay respects.In addition, according to the edict, Zhang Pan also erected statues of the Second Emperor of Yan and Huang and Zhu Youxiao, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.The former is the ancestor of China, and the latter is the lord of the Ming Dynasty today.It is declared that this is already the land of China and the land of the Ming Dynasty.As a symbol of Chinese heritage.In addition, it is the construction of the memorial hall of outstanding Chinese figures and the Confucian school.The former is to popularize Chinese culture, and the latter is to spread Confucianism, both in order to transform the primitive inhabitants as a base for the sinicization of these primitive inhabitants.Naturally, these projects required the participation of primitive inhabitants.However, the Ming Dynasty is now more civilized, in order to ensure that the income of these primitive inhabitants increases, and promote the development of the commodity economy of the Ming Dynasty, therefore, when hiring workers, they are paid, and the salary income is directly related to labor efficiency.And now the primitive inhabitants of Yakutsk were not directly captured by the Ming army to work, but were hired to build corresponding projects.These primitive inhabitants were not active at first, because they did not realize that this could bring them income, and they did not have a sense of money, after all, many of them lived by fishing and hunting, and had no sense of trading.It wasn't until the first batch of merchants of the Ming Dynasty came here with goods and asked to only accept the transaction of Ming silver coins, that they realized that the silver coins they earned by working could be exchanged for many high-quality and inexpensive goods, and even many of them had never seen before.As a result, the number of primitive residents who were willing to work began to increase, and these people began to be influenced by the commercial civilization of the Ming Dynasty, and gradually accepted the rule of the Ming Dynasty from the heart, and gradually began to identify with the culture of the Ming Dynasty unconsciously.When the statues of Emperor Yan and Huang and Zhu Youxiao were erected, these people really began to bow down to these people as gods.After all, they have to admit that since the people of Daming came, their quality of life has indeed improved, because they can already exchange a lot of goods through their labor.
