    After listening to Liu Jin¡¯s introduction, everyone¡¯s eyes were slightly surprised. This was the first time they could see so intuitively the importance of the area where the northern Tatar tribes were located to the Ming Dynasty.

    I didn¡¯t realize this before, but now after listening to Liu Jin¡¯s analysis, I immediately felt that this area was really important to the Ming Dynasty.

    "If it can be included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, wouldn't it mean that there will be an additional barrier in the Beijing-Tianjin area of ??the Ming Dynasty. In the future, it will be absolutely impossible for the grassland people to directly attack the capital."

    Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but think so.

    The other ministers nodded slightly after hearing this, and they all realized the importance of this area to the Ming Dynasty.

    "If we just want to solve the Oara, we can temporarily solve the threat to the northern grasslands."

    "This is not difficult. Our Ming Dynasty is now booming in national power, and its artillery and muskets are becoming more and more advanced and powerful. As time goes by, and as the technology matures, we will be able to use muskets and artillery to form a threat to the grassland people in the future.  Crush.¡±

    "As far as we are concerned, it is not difficult for us to clean up Wala."

    "On the grassland, the only ones who can deal with the grassland people are cavalry~"

    Liu Jin looked at everyone and continued to speak slowly.

    "Last year we defeated the little Tatar prince and severely damaged the Tatar tribes. Now some Tatar tribes are willing to surrender to our Ming Dynasty, which means that we can obtain a large number of war horses from them."

    "It doesn't take too many to form a cavalry with these war horses. Fifty thousand people are enough. Coupled with my Ming's sophisticated armor and swords, equipped with muskets and artillery, a few months of training will be enough to deal with the Oara tribes."  .¡±

    "In addition, we can also recruit the Tatar troops who are attached to our Ming Dynasty and use the grassland people to deal with the grassland people. That will be easier."

    To deal with the grassland people, Liu Jin, who came from a later generation, knew that before entering the era of hot weapons, only cavalry versus cavalry was the best way.

    Unless infantry can be used to deal with cavalry until muskets and artillery are truly mature, on the vast grasslands, only a powerful cavalry in hand can deal with the prairie people.

    The reason why the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty were able to defeat the grassland people actually relied on cavalry, cavalry versus cavalry, and then using the advantages of equipment and strong national power to finally defeat the grassland people.

    Hearing Liu Jin¡¯s words, everyone couldn¡¯t help but nodded slightly.

    Raising 50,000 cavalry was simply unrealistic for the Ming Dynasty a few years ago. One was that there were not enough war horses, and the other, most importantly, was that there were not enough financial resources to support it.

    But things are different now. There are many Tatar tribes who want to attach themselves to the Ming Dynasty. They were scared of being beaten last year, their vitality was greatly damaged, and they fought honestly.

    By relying on the Ming Dynasty, they can get a chance to breathe and gain a backer. Otherwise, if they are unified by Ola, their life will definitely not be easy.

    Because Oara unifies them, they are very likely to lose everything they have now, but it is different if they rely on the Ming Dynasty. The Central Plains dynasty has always been kind and generous. If they rely on the Ming Dynasty, they can also get the food, salt, ironware, etc. they want from the Ming Dynasty.  , rapidly growing their own strength.

    Since they are dependent on the Ming Dynasty, these grassland tribes naturally have to attack the Ming Dynasty for war horses, or sell war horses, which means that they can easily obtain a large number of war horses.

    As for financial resources, this is not a problem. No one in the world is richer than Emperor Hongzhi, not to mention that not long ago, he obtained fifteen million taels of silver from the Japanese country.

    This amount of money is enough to arm 50,000 cavalry to the teeth.

    "What if you want to solve the problem of the northern grasslands once and for all?"

    Emperor Hongzhi thought for a while, then asked again after thinking about it.

    The ministers also showed strong interest at this time, and wanted to continue to hear what clever tricks Liu Jin had to solve the problem of the northern grassland once and for all.

    "Your Majesty, gentlemen~"

    Liu Jin nodded slightly, thought for a moment and spoke again.

    "There is only one way to solve the problem in the north once and for all, and that is to incorporate this large area of ??the north into the territory of our Ming Dynasty, and at the same time turn the grassland people into our Ming Dynasty people, and let them use Chinese characters and speak Mandarin like us.  , take the imperial examination like us, and be loyal to the Ming Dynasty."

    In layman¡¯s terms, it means assimilation. After the grassland people are completely assimilated, they become people of the Ming Dynasty. Then naturally this area belongs to the Ming Dynasty, and they will not pose any threat to themselves.Coveting the land of the Central Plains with eager eyes.

    But I have never thought that for ordinary herders on the grassland, they actually just want to live a prosperous life and want to live a better life.

    If you go to plunder the Ming Dynasty, you will most likely die in the war. For ordinary people, no one is willing to fight, whether they are the Ming people or the grassland people.

    In fact, what everyone wants most is to be able to support their families with their own hands and to live a happy life as a family. It¡¯s that simple.

    As for invading the Central Plains, reviving the great glory of the grassland people, etc., these are just the ambitions of the grassland nobles and tribal leaders.

    It¡¯s just that their ambition not only hurts the common people in the Central Plains, but also hurts the ordinary herders on the grasslands. In the end, everyone is actually paying for the ambition of a few people in power.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
