Zhao Bing was very troubled by how to deal with the Mongols in the enemy-occupied areas in the future. The idea of ​​"no ones in our race will have different hearts" is common. However, the adaptation of the surrendered troops in Ezhou not only in the court, but also in the army has also aroused a lot of opposition. Distrust has always existed, and even when participating in the war is now, there are constant doubts, worried that their rebellion will destroy the entire plan. Fortunately, the Fifth Brigade of the Guards is very tenacious, so he suppressed the doubts.

From the heart, Zhao Bing certainly thought that the best enemy was the dead, and only physically eliminated was the most reassuring. But he also understood that blindly slaughtering could not solve the problems he faced. If you slaughter all the people related to Mongolia, who would provide taxes and engage in production? Although the massacre can serve as a deterrent effect, allowing the enemy to surrender without fighting. But the massacre will also cause the enemy to resist more resolutely. If the death is fought, it may not be a blessing for the Song army.

On the other hand, large-scale killing of prisoners will also arouse opposition from the court. Although the scholars yelled to kill all the Tartars and were full of distrust of the people of the same tribe in the enemy-occupied areas, if they really killed all the surrendered soldiers, they would definitely turn their fingers at themselves, such as the ominous killing of prisoners, cruelty and incorruptible, bloodthirsty and easy to kill... and so on, a series of hats were placed on their heads. Anyway, he was killing in the end, and he used Zhu Bajie to look in the mirror - it was not human inside or outside.

Zhao Bing understood that whether in ancient times or modern times, invaders or colonists who want to successfully rule the so-called occupied land, the most important thing is that the ruler is to win the hearts of the people. Of course, the so-called hearts of the people here are not the hearts of everyone. Even the election of modern Western political parties is only to mobilize their supporters to the greatest extent, and being able to gain recognition from the middle power is hard.

The Qing Dynasty was able to successfully control China for 200 years because it was supported by the old bureaucrats of the Ming Dynasty and recognized by scholars and landlords. The Japanese were able to occupy the Northeast because they also used the power of the Qing dynasty and gained their support. As for the appearance of modern powerful countries, they were slightly more beautiful, and they no longer directly occupied it, but established puppet regimes by supporting forces and parties close to them, thus achieving indirect rule.

Therefore, relying solely on killing is only a strategy for a special period, not a wise move to implement long-term rule. As for Zhao Bing, the ministers at the beginning questioned his inheritance of the great rule, but they did not dare to kill. Because the national policy of the Song Dynasty was to "govern with scholars and officials", Confucian scholars had become an important part of the ruling class of the country, and were accepted by other classes in society, and penetrated into every corner of the country.

If Zhao Bing only questioned the legitimacy of his succession and kept making interference from it, he would let go and kill him to maintain his status, then he would be abandoned by the scholar class. Therefore, although he was frustrated, he did not dare to break up easily. He could only continuously weaken the strength of his opponents by cultivating the power of scholars close to him, and use the Wuchen Group to restrain him, so as to gain their support.

Zhao Bing is facing the same situation at the moment, but the difference is that one is the conflict between us and us, and the other is the internal conflict. He has not learned much from how to rule the newly reclaimed areas and let the people in the north use them for their own use. The Mongolian Yuan Dynasty was able to become the first ethnic minority regime to unify China, and they were allegiance to the Han warlords. They conquered most of China with the Han armed forces as the main force. It was obviously successful, at least in the early stage, but he felt that it was difficult for him to copy because some of them could not be learned.

The Mongols were very concerned about winning over cannon fodders from all races since the Genghis Khan era. In their consciousness, the Khitans, Jurchens, etc. were regarded as Han people, but their attitudes were not considered as polite and inferior. The Mongols did not know what polite and inferior were at that time. After careful analysis, Zhao Bing thought that their success was funny and incredible. He thought it was the Mongols' habit of calculating accounts that made these Han warlords devoted themselves to their lives.

Yelu Liuge was a Khitan, a border general in the north of the Jin Dynasty. Later, he was dissatisfied with the suspicion of the Jurchens rebelling in the former land of Liaodong, and he raised more than 100,000 armed forces and captured Liaoyang, Tokyo, the Jin Dynasty. Later, he joined the Mongols and became his good helper in the Liaodong strategy. Genghis Khan's preferential treatment was to bring his son Xue Yang to his side as a hostage. When Yelu Liuge passed away, Genghis Khan also asked Yelu Liuge's other son to replace him before letting Xue Yang leave. This policy was also implemented to the Han army Shihou who defected to the Mongols. If anyone did not send his son to the Mongols as a hostage, who would be a traitor in the eyes of Dahan.

Furthermore, the Mongols adopted a vague policy of treating the Han warlords during the Jin and Yuan dynasties and did not care about their past. Dong Jun was Dong Wenbing's father, while Dong Wenbing was called the eldest brother by Kublai Khan, Shi Bingzhi was the father of Shi Tianze, the only right prime minister of the Han Dynasty in the Yuan Dynasty. Liu Heima was the leader of the 30,000 Han households. These Han warlords who took the initiative to surrender to the Mongolian and Yuan dynasties were indeed valued.

People who defeated Baghdad, such as Guo Kan's grandfather Guo Baoyu, Zhang Hongfan's father Zhang Rou, who were once highly valued by the Jin people, were also very popular among the Mongolians. In the eyes of the Mongolians, a man who could fight was like a beautiful woman, and she could do it and use it. Even Li Quan, who had bloody battles with the Mongolian army for many years, had blood feuds, his mother and elder brother died at the hands of the Mongolian soldiers who attacked Jin. It was a combination of national hatred and family hatred, but the Mongolians were willing to recruit him and gave the Li Quan family the military and political power that was hereditary in Shandong.

More importantly, the rewards given by the Mongol Yuan far exceeded those of his predecessors. The Mongol Yuan gave these Han warlords a huge equity share in the Han Dynasty. After the Qin Dynasty, the value of the enclosures began to gradually shrink. The annual income of each enclosure to the marquis of the Western Han Dynasty was 300 to 400 cents, while the price of a horse in the Western Han Dynasty was 6,000 cents. Such a commoner family with nearly 100 acres of land was only 8,000 cents, which is a lot.

The value of the sealed households in the Song Dynasty was only 25 cents per household, which shrank by more than ten times. However, the value of the sealed households in the Mongolian Yuan was a total silk silver student, among which the sealed households also included medical households, craftsmen, etc. Each household paid one pound of silk and four taels of silver each year. In addition, there were differences in the reduction of the laboratories and halved households and scattered households. In short, the value of the sealed households in the Song Dynasty was hundreds of times that of the sealed households in the Song Dynasty.

Zhao Bing once studied that the number of Mongol Yuan rewards can be called the highest dynasties in China. Li Shimin gave 111 meritorious officials a total of 71,000 households to the actual enfeoffment, while the Mongol Yuan rewarded Liu Heima's family with only 70,000 households. The entire Mongolian Yuan nobles and the Han army's Shihou divided up more than 700,000 households. Moreover, the territory of the Han army's Shihou had all the authority of judicial and taxation, and could do whatever he wanted.

After Kublai Khan officially established the Yuan Dynasty, even though the fiefs of the Han army's Marquis were reduced, the huge rewards were continuously given. The Yuan court rewarded the most at the most one-seventh of the annual income to its relatives and meritorious officials. The emperors of the Yuan Dynasty were even confused so that the Qixue and others issued more than a thousand decrees to seek benefits from them. However, they also ignored the corruption of the people below, but they were indeed extremely generous and generous bosses, and of course they were regarded as the best partners by the Han warlords.

Compared with the Mongols, Zhao Bing thought that the Southern Song Dynasty court was not only stingy, but also had poor rewards, but also had a much worse attitude, which could even be called discrimination. They believed that these Han warlords had breasts but were mothers, and were no longer chaste women, and were far less loyal than their direct troops. When the northern Han armed forces recruited had conflicts with their own army, they adopted the policy of unconditional support for their side without hesitation. Therefore, in the eyes of the northern Han warlords, the Southern Song Dynasty court was not a good backer and was not worthy of their life.

Although time has changed, Zhao Bing thought that this kind of thought was also prevalent in the court. If he dared to give big rewards like a Mongolian, the scholars and men would probably have to wait for him, and the spits would drown him. Those people were the ones who looked down on others, and they were their former enemies, so it would be difficult for him to implement this trick on a large scale.

In addition, another reference can be learned from Zhao Bing. Even though history has turned a corner, Lao Zhu basically has no chance of becoming an emperor, but it does not prevent him from learning from his experience and lessons. After all, Zhu Yuanzhang lived in the Yuan Dynasty for a long time, and he was very familiar with the political and military situation of the Yuan Dynasty, and the situation he faced was somewhat similar.

When the Ming army approached Dadu along the Grand Canal, Emperor Shun of Yuan left like a thief at night. Zhu Yuanzhang did not order the vanguard general Xu Da to pursue Emperor Shun of Yuan, but ordered him to take over the Yuan army in an orderly manner. He ordered the Yuan army households in various places to change their household registration without authorization and let them stand by on standby. When they completely occupied the Central Plains, Xu Da completed the collection and sorting of the Han army of the Yuan Dynasty in the five provinces and eight wings, and took over 140,000 Han troops for the court.

Zhu Yuanzhang carefully selected the troops according to the method of three households and one army, and distributed these troops to the guards of Peking. Many of the soldiers who later rose up with Zhu Di were the results of this takeover work. In addition to building the Great Wall in the north, Xu Da continued to take over the Yuan Dynasty's military households. Not only did he defend North China, but he also brought a large number of Mongolian cavalry to fight with his compatriots in Ming Dynasty armor. At the same time, he popularized cavalry combat technology, making the surrendered army the most powerful leader of the Ming army, leading these troops to sweep the northern desert many times.
