    Why do nomads invade frequently once they are powerful?

    People have a lot of explanations. From the perspective of temperament, they will say that it is because they are warlike, barbaric, cruel, and like to plunder; from the perspective of economy, they say that the nomadic economy is backward and their ability to resist natural disasters is low, so they have to rely on plundering agricultural peoples to supplement  Own.

    This is well-known, and Nuoyandala can naturally speak out, but silence tells him that there is actually a deeper reason, that is, the need to maintain unity.

    When mankind was still in the age of ignorance, there was no nation that did not think about expansion and aggression, because if you do not conquer others, you will be conquered by others In fact, even in the age of civilization, those who do not think about making progress will still be punished by the times.  The law of the jungle has existed since ancient times, and will accompany mankind until its extinction.

    For the grassland people, this law is even more supreme.  Because the tribes are really weak - sparsely populated and backward in production.  In order to protect themselves, they had to conquer each other and seek unity, but after the unification, they did not have the economic basis to maintain this unity¡ªagricultural civilization required large-scale manpower input, and fixed the people on the land, but nomadic  As long as the economy maintains a livestock group of a few hundred people, it is enough to be self-sufficient, and they live by water and grass. The tribes are often separated by hundreds of miles. If they live in peace for a long time, they will naturally lack cohesion.

    So, how to maintain the unity of a nomadic empire?  Just to give a reason why we have to stick together.

    The easiest reason to find is war, constantly launching wars The Huns, Turks, etc. are all like this, and Mongolia has become the purest war group under the creation of Genghis Khan.  Compared with the Huns meeting the Great Han and the Turks meeting the Tang Dynasty, Temujin was so lucky that he was invincible all over the world. No country could compete with him for a long time, thus ushering in the nomadic empire  The Golden Age of China established an invincible empire spanning Asia and Europe.

    Afterwards, the Mongols, who could no longer find a challenger, had to put their swords and guns into storage, put their horses on Nanshan Mountain, and then split and fell faster than their rise. The empire was setting sun, and the afterglow was bleak

    Therefore, without war, the nomadic country will fall into division, which has become a truth imprinted in the minds of the Mongols.  Therefore, whether it is Yexian or Dayan Khan, the masters of the great talents who unified the various tribes of Mongolia are all like the ancestor Genghis Khan. They returned to the starting point when Mongolia rose and continued to wage wars in an attempt to restore its former glory.

    However, the golden age of the grassland nation has passed, and the Mongols have already split into two tribes, the Tatars and the Oirats, who have conquered each other for more than a hundred years, and the hatred between them even exceeds the hostility to the Ming Dynasty.  They were not as lucky as Genghis Khan. They caught up with the confrontation between Song and Jin, and they had no time to worry about it. Their enemy, the Ming Dynasty, was established by overthrowing their homeland, Meng Yuan. From the day it was built, they regarded them as life and death enemies.  .

    Moreover, in the two hundred years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, it has never encountered a second powerful enemy, so it can mobilize the power of the whole country to confront this only enemy, even the capital is moved to Beijing, and the emperor guards the country to stabilize the frontier.  line of defense.

    The internal and external environment is so, no matter how hard the Khans of the past dynasties try, it is impossible for Mongolia to return to its former prosperity. They also lost the luck of their ancestors and frequently launched wars with the Ming Dynasty.  To defend, to preserve the survival of the country

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    "So it is also a war. Your ancestor Genghis Khan could sweep Europe and Asia in a few decades, but now you are fighting more and more poorly, and the population is getting smaller." The second bottle of Xifeng also bottomed out.  Shen Mo opened the third bottle, poured it for Nuoyandala, and said, "The world has changed over time, and war is no longer a panacea for you Mongolians to maintain unity. It's time to find a new path."

    Nuoyandala lowered her head, her face was flushed, but her eyes were blurred and said: "Can you find a new road?"

    "Yes." Shen Mo nodded solemnly.

    Nuoyandala raised her head and looked at Silence.

    "I can't tell you clearly yet," Shen Mo said, "Recently, a distinguished guest is coming to Yulin. Jinong might as well meet him at that time. Maybe he can have some ideas."

    Seeing that Shen Mo didn't want to disclose, Nuoyandala had no choice but to hold down the question, and had a drink with Shen Mo.  When the table was about to break up, he couldn't help but said again: "Master Superintendent is only worried that all the tribes in Ordos will surrender and rebel. I, Nuoyandala, can't control other tribes, but I can guarantee that the clansmen I belong to will always submit to you.  Daming, be a citizen of Wanghua" After a pause, he gritted his teeth and said, "To show my sincerity, I will never return to the grassland and send my descendants to the north for generations.Although it is safe, if you forget the battle, you will be in danger.  ¡¯ This is nonsense nonsense.  "Under the influence of alcohol, Silence's domineering side hidden under the gentleness, revealed tonight: "A country that is not warlike will definitely forget to fight, just like our Ming Dynasty. Fortunately, the Mongols harassed the Nine Sides, so we were able to fight in Jianguo.  Two hundred years later, the military strength is barely justified.  I am very worried, if the Mongol problem is really solved in the future, the nine borders will be safe, the swords and guns will be stored, and the horses will be released in Nanshan. What will happen to my Ming army?  "

    Wang Chonggu looked at Shen Mo with complicated emotions. He has always had difficulty in straightening out his relationship with this former "brother". He always felt that the other party was just lucky enough to become his boss.  But the recent contact made him finally understand that the other party is far superior to himself in terms of vision and heart Just like this time, when he was still complacent about the smooth progress of the war, he had already thought about what to do after the war.  Even the future of the Ming army.  It seems that I and him are really the difference between 'seeking a domain' and 'seeking the overall situation'.  In the face of this gap, age, qualifications and the like are really insignificant.  "

    Until now, Wang Chonggu has adjusted his position and no longer regards himself as a veteran, but conscientiously fulfills the duties of his subordinates.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    "A big country must be belligerent, and must have the spirit of 'those who offend us will be punished even if they are far away'. Any provocation must be resolutely fought back! Otherwise, we can only breed wolfish ambitions and lead to even greater wars for the country." Silent eyes were cold.  Lie, speaking domineeringly, said: "Even if the neighboring countries dare not make trouble, they must regularly launch controllable wars to hone their own troops so that they will not forget to fight. It also keeps the neighboring countries in awe.  "

    These words greatly appealed to Wang Chonggu's appetite, he laughed and said: "For this iron-blooded talk, the tea is too weak, and the wine must be served!" So he withdrew the teacup, opened a jar of 'Huang Gui', and silenced  Then he said: "However, there are many examples of militancy and national subjugation."

    "Warring is not a crime, the key is to do what you can." Mo Mo picked up the wine cup, took a sip, and said, "You can't fight a battle that you must lose, and you can't fight a battle that loses money. The former will damage the prestige of the court, and the latter will  Leading to a financial crisis, and then passing it on to the people, is the source of disaster for the country. Before fighting this battle, the cabinet first analyzed the situation of the enemy and ourselves. I said that I was getting old, and there were many disagreements among the ministries. Natural disasters continued on the grassland for five consecutive years.  It was a time of embarrassment and weakness, and the arrogance of previous years was completely gone. However, we have united as one, prepared carefully for several years, gathered famous generals, and possessed the advantages of new firearms, which gave us the ability to defeat the grassland cavalry. If we do not take the initiative to fight at this time  In this battle, Emperor Taizu will be so angry that he will jump out of the imperial mausoleum."

    "In addition to not losing, this battle will not lose money." Silently smiled: "There are Shanxi businessmen and southeast businessmen who are willing to pay the bill, and fools can't do it."¡ª¡ª
