How did Zhu Yuanzhang treat Mongolian women after the demise of the Yuan Dynasty? No blood, but cruel?

The Yuan Dynasty was the largest dynasty in the history of China, but it was not the Han Dynasty, but was founded by Mongols. As it is a minority regime, the rulers are not enlightened enough, so they adopted a policy of ethnic discrimination and oppression to prevent the overwhelming majority of Han people from uprising. The government of the Yuan Dynasty distinguished people's ranks. Of course, the first category is Mongolians, who have a small population but the most land and wealth. The second layer is semu people, that is, people from the western regions. The third level is the Han people, referring to the Han people, jurchen people and Qidan people north of Huaihe River, and the fourth level is the southerners, mostly referring to the adherents of the Southern Song Dynasty. In this process, people in the third and fourth grades were oppressed by Mongols, and they had to pay very high taxes to the court, but they were also ravaged. At that time, a Mongolian or Semu needed twenty families to support them, and these so-called people of noble descent did nothing but eat, drink and have fun all day. Moreover, these bullies also have the right to have their first sex with women under their control. When women get married, they can't share the same room with their husbands on their first night of marriage, and they must sleep with the Mongols or Semu people who manage them. Therefore, people often deliberately let a woman have an abortion when she is pregnant with her first child. In addition, if the Mongols accidentally kill the Han people, then the Mongols only need to pay some money to avoid disaster. But if the Han people kill the Mongols, not only the perpetrators will be beheaded, but the whole family will suffer.

Finally, it is definitely unpopular for the Yuan government to be so overbearing and take advantage of it. So later, the whole world united against the tyranny of the Yuan Dynasty. In the uprising army, there was a young man named Zhu Yuanzhang. He is clever and brave. Although he is only a young monk, he has courage and knowledge. After joining the rebels in Guo Zixing, he became more famous and gained more and more popularity. Later, Zhu Yuanzhang overthrew his old enemy Chen Youliang. Since then, he has occupied the banks of the Yangtze River and Huaihe River even more severely. He attacked from all sides, defeated the big forces such as Fang Guozhen and Zhang Shicheng, and swept away the small separatist forces in the south. Zhu Yuanzhang's territory is getting bigger and bigger and his strength is getting stronger and stronger. Finally, in 1638, Zhu Yuanzhang proclaimed himself emperor in Nanjing and changed his title to Ming, which was the last Han Dynasty in history-Ming Dynasty.

When Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty in the north was still fighting back. So Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and Aquamarine to lead the troops to the Northern Expedition. In the second year of Hongwu, the generals who went out to the north frequently reported good news, and more than 10 thousand people were arrested only by prisoners. In the third year of Hongwu, the army went north again. This time, the harvest is bigger than before. Captured 10000 prisoners and captured more than 20000 animals.

The Ming Dynasty took the initiative to wage wars against the Yuan Dynasty many times and defeated the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty again and again. However, Zhu Yuanzhang was not satisfied with this. What he wants is to seize the royal family of the Yuan Dynasty to export evil spirits and seek justice for the people who have struggled for many years under it. In the twenty years of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang once again sent troops to the Northern Expedition beyond the Great Wall. This time, the Yuan Dynasty assembled remnants of the army to fight against the Ming army in secret, and 100,000 people joined forces in Yuhai (Lake Baikal) for a decisive battle. The decisive battle was held in secret, and the Ming army, which was good at using firearms and cavalry, quickly defeated the Yuan army and was finally eaten by the Ming army. This time, the Yuan Dynasty suffered numerous casualties. /kloc-more than 0/00 members of the royal family were all arrested, more than 3,000 officials at all levels were arrested, and the rest were also captured by more than 7,000 people. That is, after the Great War, the Yuan government was devastated and far from home. Zhu Yuanzhang turned a dynasty that once crisscrossed the territory of Wan Li into an ordinary nomadic people, which brought people back to before liberation overnight.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang was ravaged by the ruling class of the Yuan Dynasty, he was the emperor of the new dynasty after all, so he was merciful. He told the generals to kill all those who resisted. But those who put down their swords and guns can give a way out, and those who take the initiative to vote can also be hired as officials to continue to handle political affairs. So some Mongols chose to take refuge in Zhu Yuanzhang at that time.

But there are always fewer people who take refuge than those who kill them, and most of the Mongolians who kill them have women. How should these Mongolian women settle down? Zhu Yuanzhang thought of a good way. Zhu Yuanzhang ordered these Mongolian women to be moved from the northern plateau to the land of Henan and Hebei, and distributed farm tools and fields to them, so that they could live in peace. Why did Zhu Yuanzhang arrange this?

Henan and Hebei belong to the hinterland of the Central Plains, where cultural etiquette is flourishing, and the Han nationality also originated. Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to assimilate these Mongolian women with the strong Han cultural atmosphere here. At the same time, the Han population here accounts for the vast majority, and those who have lost their husbands can only marry local Han people, so their children are of Han descent. When they grow up, they must learn Chinese, write Chinese characters, speak Chinese and wear Hanfu. Over time, Mongolian women will be bound to this land and assimilate into Han people.

It is true that Zhu Yuanzhang did not kill them with a sword, but Zhu Yuanzhang took the whole heart and directly internalized outsiders into his own. You know, making a person forget his nationality is far more cruel and terrible than killing a person. Therefore, it can be seen from here that Zhu Yuanzhang's means are far from comparable. But then again, this way is probably the simplest and most scientific way. If Zhu Yuanzhang kills people, it will only deepen the contradiction between the two nations and lead to the recurrence of war, which is not wise for both sides!
