    After Gong Nai and others were seated, Sun Chengzong briefly talked about Lin Dan Khan and the relationship between Lin Dan Khan and the Ming Dynasty!

    This Lin Dan Khan's name was Boljijin Lin Dan Batur. He was born in the 20th year of Wanli (1592). In the 32nd year of Wanli (1604), when Lin Dan Khan was thirteen years old, he was born in the 20th year of Wanli (1592).  Yanchechen Khan inherited the throne of the Great Khan of Mongolia, and his name was Khutuktu Khan. At the beginning of his succession, Lin Dan Khan believed in the Yellow Sect, but later converted to the Red Sect!

    However, when Lin Dan Khan succeeded to the throne, the authority of the Mongolian Great Khan had almost been lost. The Horqin, Nei Khalkha, Tumut, and Ordos tribes in Monan Mongolia had been doing their own thing for a long time.

    Lin Dan Khan, the Mongolian Great Khan, could only control the Chahar tribe in the Liaohetao area, that is, Qite, Naiman, Keshiketeng, Ujimqin, Sunit, Aohan, Alakzhuote,  The eight tribes dominated by Xiti!

    It should be said that Lin Dan Khan is also a man with a higher ambition than paper. When he became the Great Khan of Mongolia, he was determined to revive the glory of the Borjijin family, and he devoted his life to this.  However, Mongolia had been falling apart for many years at that time, and he was not even a child capable of doing this.

    It was not until ten years after Lin Dan Khan succeeded to the throne that his prestige and strength gradually increased. In order to establish his prestige, Lin Dan Khan led his army to plunder three times from the 40th year of Wanli (1612) to the 43rd year of Wanli (1615).  The Ming Dynasty's frontier fortress frequently launched attacks along the hundreds of miles long border from Guangning to Jinzhou, causing great momentum for a time.

    However, although these large-scale border raids allowed Lin Danhan to taste some benefits, the overall results were not great, and it could be said that the gains outweighed the losses. Therefore, in the forty-fifth year of Wanli (1617), Lin Danhan sent  He returned the captive people of the Ming Dynasty and took the initiative to reconcile with the Ming Dynasty, and thus gained the right to trade with the Ming Dynasty. At the same time, Lin Dan Khan also built the capital Chahanhot in order to strengthen his power.

    It is a pity that just when Lin Dan Khan was about to display his ambitions, Nurhaci rose up and established the Houjin Dynasty. This not only posed a huge threat to the Ming Dynasty but also to the various Mongolian ministries. Lin Dan Khan must first pacify the internal situation in order to resist foreign aggression.  On the one hand, they tried to unify all Mongolian ministries while implementing the strategy of uniting the Ming Dynasty to resist the Jin Dynasty.

    However, in the original history, Lin Dan Khan converted from the Yellow religion to the Red religion, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the majority of Mongolian tribes who believed in the Yellow religion, which made his great cause of unifying Mongolia more difficult.

    In the war against Hou Jin, due to the successive defeats of the Ming Dynasty and the Mongolian ministries, Lin Dan Khan finally had to choose to move westward in the seventh year of the Apocalypse (1627) in order to avoid the power of Hou Jin, and in a series of wars, unified  He defeated the relatively weak Mongolian right-wing tribes.

    However, in the next few years, Lin Danhan's luck seemed to have run out. Although he fought in various places and won some victories, his overall strength became weaker and weaker. Finally, in the fifth year of Chongzhen (1632)  ) was defeated by Huang Taiji in Qinghai and became a bereaved dog!

    In order to obtain resources for survival, Lin Dan Khan not only harassed the Ming Dynasty's border fortresses several times, but also plundered other Mongolian tribes. In the end, he even reached the point where everyone rebelled against their relatives. However, Lin Dan Khan refused to succumb to fate and united with some forces that did not believe in the Yellow Sect.  , when he was preparing to make a comeback, he died of smallpox on the vast grassy beach of Qinghai in the seventh year of Chongzhen (1634)!

    In the second year after the death of Lin Dan Khan, his son Ezhe surrendered to Houjin, and the Mongol Empire was officially declared destroyed!

    Of course, in the timeline where Zhu Youxiao is, it is still unknown what the fate of Lin Danhan will be, but what is certain is that Lin Danhan's fate has completely changed since Zhu Youxiao ascended the throne of the Ming Empire.  !

    Originally in the forty-seventh year of Wanli (1619), the Ming Dynasty had sent the supervisor Wang You to Chahanhot. Although Lin Dan Khan was hypocritical, he still made Lin Dan Khan agree to tie up with the Ming Dynasty at the price of 4,000 taels of silver a year.  For the alliance, fight against Houjin together.

    However, after Zhu Youxiao ascended the throne, he carried out a series of reforms to the Ming army, which made the originally weak Ming army's combat effectiveness develop by leaps and bounds. Not only did Lin Danhan not get the silver reward in the forty-eighth year of Wanli (1620), he himself  Many of the tribes under his control were taken over by the Ming army!

    Originally faced with this situation, Lin Dan Khan wanted to gather his troops to teach the Ming Dynasty a lesson. However, firstly, the combat effectiveness displayed by the Ming army was really scary, and secondly, the Ming Dynasty suddenly opened up trade unconditionally, causing the entire Mongolian grassland to  Shocked by it.

    In the past, the Ming Dynasty's mutual trade was based on a reward situation, open to those Mongolian tribes that once threatened the Ming Dynasty and later had good relations with the Ming Dynasty. In this way, those who traded with the Ming Dynasty were basically powerful tribes. This is also  Promote those weak tribes toIn order to obtain benefits, they actively attached themselves to large tribes. It can be said that this mutual trading of rewards in the Ming Dynasty greatly promoted the integration of various Mongolian tribes.

    But Zhu Youxiao directly opened up the mutual trade this time, which allowed many originally weak tribes to gradually migrate towards the Ming Dynasty, and benefited from the mutual trade with the Ming Dynasty and increased their strength.

    But the originally powerful tribes could not get close to the Ming Dynasty. During the mutual trade, they were suppressed intentionally or unintentionally by the Ming Dynasty. In the past, these tribes would not hesitate to use their knives, but now the Ming army's knives are sharper, so they  In order to obtain benefits, not only must they swallow their anger, but they must even curry favor with the Ming Dynasty.

    So in this case, if Lin Dan Khan had to send troops to harass the Ming Dynasty's border fortress, then the Ming army would not need to give him a strong blow. Even those tribes who were afraid that the Ming Dynasty would close the mutual trade would not follow Lin Dan Khan to do such a stupid thing!

    After seeing the current situation clearly, Lin Danhan sent an envoy to the Ming Dynasty in order to establish his own prestige and obtain more benefits from the Ming Dynasty!

    The purpose of Lin Dan Khan's envoys had been sent back to the Ming Dynasty through Jin Yiwei. Sun Chengzong finally said based on Jin Yiwei's information: "Since His Majesty ascended the throne, the contact between the imperial court and Lin Dan Khan has stopped, and through continuous military strikes,  It weakened the strength of the various Mongolian tribes, and at the same time gradually divided the Mongolian tribes through mutual trade, causing the large tribes to gradually decline, while the small tribes gradually grew, making it further difficult for Lin Dan Khan to unify the various Mongolian tribes. Therefore, the purpose of Lin Dan Khan sending envoys this time was,  He probably wants the imperial court to support him in unifying all Mongolian tribes!¡±

    Zhu Youxiao smiled slightly and said: "He has a good plan, but it's a pity that I don't have the intention to help him!"

    "Your Majesty!" As soon as Zhu Youxiao finished his words, Gong Nai stood up and said, "Your Majesty's words are wrong. I remember that at the beginning of the Donglu rebellion against the Ming Dynasty, the former Liaodong strategist Yang Hao once proposed, 'Control the Eastern Yi first and use the Xilu'  Later, several ministers proposed the strategy of using barbarians to control barbarians. In the forty-seventh year of Wanli (1619), Wang You, the supervisor of the army, also went to inspect Hanhot and offered a reward of 4,000 taels of silver per year to Lin Dan Khan to agree to cooperate with the Ming Dynasty.  After resisting the Jin Dynasty, since Lin Dan Khan has asked me for help from the Ming Dynasty, why don¡¯t your majesty help him in the name of alliance?"

    Zhu Youxiao looked at Gong Nai and asked casually: "I dare to ask Gong Aiqing, if I help Lin Danhan, what benefits will Ming Dynasty get?"

    Gong Nai said without hesitation: "If Your Majesty helps Lin Dan Khan unify Mongolia, Lin Dan Khan will definitely become our arm in the Ming Dynasty to destroy the Eastern captives. Isn't this a benefit? What's more, since our Ming Dynasty has an alliance with Lin Dan Khan, if we don't abide by the alliance,  , It is really difficult to show the style of our great country tomorrow!"

    Zhu Youxiao pretended to be gentle and asked for advice: "But what if Lin Dan Khan unified all the Mongolian tribes and eliminated Hou Jin, and turned to deal with me, the Ming Dynasty?"

    Gong Nai was stunned when he heard this. He was an old scholar, not a strategist. He only had a glimpse of the intrigues between countries. As for any long-term plan, he had no long-term plan, so although he tried his best to think about it, in the end he could only  Neng said: "Your Majesty, the immediate priority of our Ming Dynasty is to destroy the Donglu. As for the rest, we can talk about it later!"

    "Hmph!" Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but said angrily: "I think the top priority of the Ming Dynasty is not to destroy the Donglu, but how to make some people change their minds and stop thinking about those illusory benevolence, justice and morality all day long.  We should not follow the national style, but keep the interests of the Ming Empire at heart!"

    After saying that, Zhu Youxiao suddenly stood up and said to Sun Chengzong: "Sun Aiqing, I'm going to take a rest. You can tell these adults from the Ministry of Rites what national interests are. If they can understand, stay. If they can't understand, leave as soon as possible!"

    Zhu Youxiao then left without waiting for the ministers to salute!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
