On the other side.
Zhu Di beamed with joy.
At the end of the day, the current Zhu Family's Fourth was still merely a youth's temperament.
The reason why they couldn't accept foreign armies was because they weren't willing to pay.
Hire them?
That won't do!
The commoners of the Ming Dynasty didn't even have enough money to spend. Why should they let outsiders benefit?
But when he heard Su Bai say…
During the Great Han Dynasty, the foreign armies took the initiative to act as the logistics force and the vanguard of the army to help the Great Han sweep through the Xiongnu.
She immediately burst into laughter!
The disdain and disdain from before were instantly swept away.
Su Bai looked up at him, shook his head and sighed:
"War is never about who kills more people, but what benefits can be obtained from a great war.”
"Giving back to the people is the way of a general!”
"As for your stupid idea, it's simply a militaristic idea. It would be a miracle if Martial Emperor Hong could let you take charge of the army.”
Hearing Su Bai's merciless preaching, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was separated by a wall, was so excited that he wanted to applaud Su Bai.
Good scolding!
Brilliant!
This brat doesn't study hard and only knows how to fight and kill all day long. Does he really think it's that easy to march and fight?
A dog's stomach couldn't hold two taels of oil. If he really went to the battlefield, he would be cannon fodder.
"Yes, Mr. Smith. I've remembered everything. Please don't scold me. At least leave me some face."
Zhu Di blushed. While begging for mercy, he got up and filled Su Bai's glass with wine. He quickly changed the topic:
"Speaking of which, there are so many outsiders, why did Mister Su choose the Tartars?”
"Those dog-like things have been destroyed by us and driven back to the grasslands. It won't be easy to take them back for our own use, right?”
Su Bai took the wine from Zhu Di's hands, took a small sip symbolically and smiled:
"If you have something to say, just say it. There's no need to beat around the bush.”
"I know you have a prejudice against the Mengyuan Tartars. You always feel that the Tartars are unreliable.”
"But there's no other way. For now, the best people to use are the Mengyuan people, and they are also the outsiders that Great Ming is the best to rope in.”
" Huh??"
Zhu Di looked at Su Bai in disbelief.
Yuan Dog?
Best to rope in?
Can you stop fooling around?
Even a three-year-old child wouldn't be able to fool him with this!
Who didn't know that the Han and Mongolians had been holding grudges for hundreds of years, starting from the Song Dynasty and continuing until now.
This was a feud!
Seeing Zhu Di's stunned face, Su Bai smiled:
"You don't understand, do you?"
"Actually, the internal conflict within the Yuangou is far more exaggerated than you know.”
"Not only are the Han people chasing after Meng Yuan, even the Mongols are eager for Yuan Ting to die.”
Zhu Di's eyes widened in disbelief.
In his impression, the Tartars had always been very united, which was why they were able to display such a strong fighting strength when the two armies faced each other.
Although there were differences within the royal family, it shouldn't be to the extent of being viewed as hostile by the people of the clan, right?
Most importantly, he had never heard the old man talk about it!
This was really strange!
Zhu Di secretly shook his head, puzzled.
However, he had learned his lesson this time. He did not refute immediately. Instead, he asked humbly,
"Why do you say that, Mr. Smith? I really don't understand. Please enlighten me, Mr. Su!
Su Bai raised his head and finished the wine in his glass. He said slowly:
"To put it simply, the Yuan Dog's 100-year tyranny was not only directed at the Han people, but also the Mongols.”
"The days of the Mongols are not good. The Mongols of the Golden Family, who are the descendants of Genghis Khan, have it easy.”
"Other than that, they are not humans. You can even say that they are slaves!”
"Ever since the Qin and Han Dynasties, every dynasty has abhorred the act of buying and selling people.”
"However, Yuan Ting has brought the slave trade back to the stage of history. If he likes to reverse the flow of history, isn't he just waiting to be killed?”
Hearing this, Zhu Di was confused and quickly interrupted,
"Mr. Smith, please wait a moment."
"Yuan Dog did this before? Why don't I remember?"
"Didn't they just come up with some 'four-class system' and put us Han people at the back?"
"Did you remember wrongly?"
Zhu Di had hated studying since he was young, but he was also restricted by his father's authority. He had to go to class. After listening to it many times, he could always remember one or two sentences.
Su Bai snorted and said in a bad mood:
"You only know about the Four-Person System. What I'm talking about is completely different from that.”
"What kind of brain are you using? Yuan Ting changed the way he said it and you don't know what it is. That's really good."
Su Bai knocked on the table and pulled Zhu Di back. He said impatiently:
"Be serious and listen carefully! No wonder your father always lashes you. Can't you study?”
Zhu Di was speechless.
"Starting from the Qin and Han Dynasties, the corvee gradually decreased. In the Song Dynasty, the degree of corvee was actually very light. However, the Yuan court picked up the corvee system again and carried it forward, treating the children of the commoners as tools to be used for free.”
"The system of the Yuan Ting is very chaotic and complicated.”
"If you are a servant of a powerful person, your official name is 'Exorcist' and you are no different from an animal.”
" However, most of them are divided according to their occupations, such as military households, craftsmen, hunters, and so on. Almost all the children of the commoners are included and labeled for life. Your children, your children's children, will forever be slaves and must do this work for the imperial court.”
After hearing Su Bai's explanation, Zhu Di was dumbfounded and clenched his fists.
With a gloomy face, he asked,
"Even people who deceive others are no exception?"
"Of course, there are no exceptions for the barbarians. Even military households don't have special privileges.”
Su Bai spread his hands and said casually:
"For example, if you are a Mongolian citizen, there is a high chance that you will be enlisted into the army. Other than grazing to support your family, you will also have to serve in the military for the imperial court. However, you will have to prepare your own weapons, horses, and rations.”
"Even if you have already settled down in Shandong and changed your land, you still have to pay for the war at the border. The Imperial Court will not give you a single cent.”
Zhu Di's sense of immersion came up. At this moment, the veins on his forehead were throbbing violently. He slammed the table and stood up, shouting,
"Isn't this bullying?"
"I'm already down and out farming. How can I have the money to go to war on my own?”
"It will take at least a month to travel from Shandong to Mobei. People need to eat, and so do horses. The expenses are not small!”
Su Bai shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently:
"No money? That's good. You can sell your wife and children to exchange for travel expenses to go to war.”
Zhu Di: "???"
"Then what if I lose?"
"Lost? You still dare to lose?"
Su Bai shook his head and laughed:
"Even if you win the battle but don't get anything back, you will be reduced to a slave like your wife and children, let alone a loser.”
"Also, don't even think about running away. Even if you run to the ends of the earth, the government will capture you and send you back to the nobles. They will also tell you that if there is a next time, you will be beheaded!”
"Just like that, your beautiful family became slaves, slaves that have been passed down from generation to generation.”
"So, do you hate Yuan Ting?"
"Do you want Yuan Ting to die?"
"Do you want revenge?"
"Do you want to make a living with Big Ming?”
"Do you want to flatten the Yuan Dynasty and take back your wife?？”
Zhu Di gritted his teeth when he heard that. His big neck turned red, and only then did he realize it.
He finally understood why Su Bai dared to say with such certainty that Meng Yuan was the easiest to recruit compared to other outsiders.
Killing people was just a matter of nodding one's head!
There should be a limit to bullying people, right?
If Northern Yuan did not perish, the heavens would not tolerate it!
Su Bai yawned and said:
"Actually, you're at a disadvantage because you're uneducated. You should study more when you go out.”
"As early as the Song Dynasty, there were several armies of Mongols and perverts under his command. They were all slaves who could not bear the oppression and fled to the south from the hands of the powerful people of the Yuan Dynasty.”
"These people are preparing their troops every day. They can't wait to kill their way to Dadu and seize the bird position!”
"Great Ming can also follow suit and use it as his own. He can lead the army to the northern expedition to plunder vitality and resolve the thousand-year-old change that destroyed the country in extreme cold!”
......
In the secret room next door.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with a smile. He was delighted with Su Bai's teaching method.
From the very beginning, when Su Bai said he wanted to recruit the Mengyuan people, he was enlightened.
Now that he had heard everything, he was even more enlightened.
Su Bai's thoughts were not only unconstrained, but he also considered the current situation.
He could indeed be considered a rare talent in the world!
Not simple!
This time, it was settled. When he went back, he could start with Li Shan Chang. Huaixi Group could also take advantage of the situation and give it a good beating!
Delightful!
But at this moment.
Zhu Biao's teasing voice suddenly sounded from the side.
"Father, Mr. Smith, are you still going to kill him?”
...............
The new book set sail, recruiting crew members, begging for the support of all the ancestors!
Kneel, flowers, evaluation, and reward!
This was very important to the author!
