    On November 12, Dingbeicheng held a meeting with all the ministries.

    In the Chinese military tent in Dingbeicheng, the leaders of various missions gathered.  Everyone looked at Sui Jun's red-hot iron stove and marveled that this black thing could still burn for warmth.  Many people admired in their hearts that the Sui people had so many novelties. It would be great if they also produced this kind of coal.

    Huang Mingyuan had previously included this coal as a key item in the transaction between the two parties.  It's just that the Hu people don't understand the use of charcoal, so no one buys it. These days, Huang Mingyuan provides charcoal and iron stoves to various missions for free for heating.  Charcoal has good heating properties, and coupled with an iron stove, it is safe and easy to use. It is the best choice for all parts of the grassland.  Moreover, for the Hu people, charcoal could not be popularized on a large scale and could only be used by the upper class as a proper luxury product.

    The cost of coal is extremely low in Fengzhou, but it is in short supply on the grasslands.  As long as the trade routes with the grasslands continue, Toyozhou will continue to prosper.

    At Chen time, the horns were blown in Weilu City, and Huang Mingyuan and Su Wei led the Sui delegation to enter. There was originally a large crowd, but immediately fell into silence after Huang Mingyuan entered the tent.  Huang Mingyuan walked up to the people and looked around the entire tent. Everyone caught by Huang Mingyuan's eyes bowed their heads with guilt and did not dare to speak.

    Su Wei on one side was also shocked to see that Huang Mingyuan's glance was so powerful.

    Huang Mingyuan made Su Wei sit on the throne, while he accompanied him on one side.

    "Zuo Zhuan" says: "Only utensils and names cannot be faked, and they are administered by a gentleman. Names are used to express trust, trust is used to guard utensils, utensils are used to hide rituals, rituals are used to perform righteousness, righteousness is used to generate profits, and benefit the common people.  , This is a major part of government. If you use fake people to govern with others."  In fact, the core of the entire alliance is the struggle for "name" and "vessel". In the words of later generations, it is the process of carnivores dividing the cake at the dinner table.

    Because it involves their own core interests, even many small departments dare not retreat even a little bit.  As for the behemoths on the grassland, they regard this as a matter of life and death.

    Because the core area of ??the Great Sui Dynasty was not in the grassland, and they could not even station troops on the grassland, they actually did not get any real benefits in terms of "weapons".  Therefore, the purpose of the Sui army in this alliance was to completely seize the "name" and then make the distribution of this "weapon" conform to the interests of the Sui Dynasty.

    After defeating the Turkic Bujia Khan, in order to effectively control the entire grassland, along with the battle report going south, there was also Huang Mingyuan's advice to the emperor.  Huang Mingyuan wrote to Yang Jian to establish a Protectorate in the north. As a military and political agency to manage the northern border, it would nominally control the entire grassland, support forces loyal to the Sui Dynasty, conquer disloyal ministers, and guide all ministries to be loyal to the Sui Dynasty.

    This was not originally part of the Sui Dynasty's plan, but Huang Mingyuan fought this battle so smoothly without any setbacks. He directly pushed all the grassland ministries on an equal footing and gave the Sui Dynasty more autonomy in handling grassland affairs.  Therefore, between Yang Jian's management of the grasslands in the Sui Dynasty and Qimin Khan's stewardship, Yang Jian finally fell in line with Huang Mingyuan's suggestion.

    In Huang Mingyuan¡¯s design, the future Grassland Protectorate should be similar to the structure of the Western Region Protectorate.  Although the Great Sui Dynasty did not directly manage the various grassland ministries, as the suzerain, it guarded the Northern Territory of the Great Sui Dynasty, coordinated conflicts and disputes among the various grassland ministries, stopped the intrusion of external forces, maintained the social order of the grassland, ensured trade routes, and ensured that the grassland would no longer become the Great Sui Dynasty.  hostile forces.

    Yang Jian is indeed a talented and strategic monarch. He saw the brilliance of this strategy at a glance. He not only approved Huang Mingyuan's disposal, but also delegated power to Huang Mingyuan for implementation. This made it possible to unite the various ministries of the alliance.

    At the beginning of the alliance, Huang Mingyuan determined the main purpose of the alliance, "respecting the king and fighting off troubles", which means "respecting the diligent king, fighting off external and internal troubles".  He respected the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty. As for who was the source of internal trouble, Huang Mingyuan did not say, but because of this, anyone could be the cause of internal trouble.

    In order to ensure the implementation of this purpose, Huang Mingyuan proposed to everyone at the beginning of the alliance that they jointly respect the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty as the "Khan of Heaven".  It means that each tribe surrenders to the Sui Dynasty, which confirms the suzerainty of the Sui Dynasty over the various tribes in the grassland.

    "Tian Khan" was originally the honorific title given to Tang Taizong Li Shimin by the leaders of ethnic minorities in the Tang Dynasty, which represented the Tang Dynasty's rule over the grassland tribes.  However, the Sui Dynasty at this time was even better than when Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty defeated Xue Yantuo, so Huang Mingyuan used this seemingly "high-ranking" title to coax Yang Jian.

    Although Qimin Khan, Qu Guling and others also understood that the Sui Dynasty had the title of "Khan of Heaven", which put an extra layer of shackles on them and gave the Sui Dynasty a reason to interfere in grassland politics, but "people are like swordsmen.  "I am a fish." Anyone who opposes this is clearly putting himself on the opposite side of the Sui Dynasty.  So even though I didn't want to, I had to agree.

    As for some small and medium-sized tribes on the grassland, they didn¡¯t care too much about these fictitious things, and they were beaten to pieces by Huang Mingyuan.?No one dared to object.

    And many people also believe that, as everyone knows, no matter how powerful the Sui army is now, the real masters of this grassland are still the various grassland ministries.  Now the tribes are weak, and only a few tribes such as the Qimin tribe and the Bayagu tribe have the ability to conquer other tribes. If the Sui Dynasty upholds justice for them, they can resist the intrusion of some large tribes.  Therefore, with the support of Zhi Shiyan, Sunong Bodu, Hun Poliu, Adi Hezhe and others, the title of "Khan of Heaven" was undoubtedly placed on Yang Jian's head.

    The title "Tian Khan" was really a false name when the Sui Dynasty was weak, but when the Sui Dynasty was strong, it was a powerful weapon to control the grassland.

    What the grassland tribes don¡¯t understand is that the Han people attach more importance to this title.  With the title of "Khan of Heaven", the Sui Dynasty could directly intervene in the grassland at critical times, and even recruit troops and horses to conquer the unfaithful.  Even if there are objections from courtiers, "Tian Khan" is still an excellent tool to block the words of these people.

    ¡°And this matter is also of great benefit to Huang Mingyuan.  It can even be said that for Yang Jian, Huang Mingyuan has made so many contributions, not even the name "Khan of Heaven" he proposed has entered Yang Jian's mind.

    After that, Su Wei, on behalf of the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty, pardoned all the ministries for their crimes in the Northern Expedition. Regardless of whether they were enemies of the Sui Dynasty in this war, everything in the past would be ignored.

    In the past, many tribes were worried that the Sui Dynasty would deliberately retaliate after the war. The Sui Dynasty's move dispelled the concerns of many tribes who followed Bujia Khan and Quguleng and were enemies of the Sui Dynasty.  Of course, this kind of pardon is actually targeted at small and medium-sized tribes. As for large tribes like the Bayagu tribe and the Tongluo tribe, they will not believe it no matter how steadfast Su Wei is, regardless of previous crimes.

    However, after the two combined punches of respecting the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty as the "Khan of Heaven" and pardoning the tribes of the Sui Dynasty, most of the grassland tribes have recognized the status of the Sui Dynasty from the bottom of their hearts.

    Next, the most important thing about the alliance is that Sui Dynasty will serve as the leader of the alliance and preside over the redistribution of territory among the various ministries.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
