Chapter 188 The Problem of the Three Kings of Yunchuan Road(1/2)
Propaganda and enlightenment for the country is a sacred thing.
Even if this trip is dangerous, there is no need to worry too much.
Why don't you kill the envoy when the two armies are fighting?
What's more, the Nanyi countries are small countries, and no one will be bold enough to kill Dafeng's envoy.
in history.
The southern area of Yunchuan Road originally belonged to the Nanyi Kingdoms.
But later it fell into the hands of Dafeng.
If they had not disliked the high mountains and far away rivers there, the dynasties before Dafeng would have annexed the Nanyi kingdoms long ago.
But what if it is merged?
The mountain roads there are rugged, the climate is harsh, and it is extremely unfavorable for governance.
Today, there are three most powerful countries in the Nanyi Kingdom.
These three countries are the main goals of Fan Xueyi's team during this trip.
After seeing off Fan Xueyi's delegation, Guo Tianyi returned to the Forbidden City.
Three days later.
Guo Tianyi announced many national policies in the court.
Among them, the first national policy is a national policy aimed at the northern Wu Kingdom who wants to go south to establish the first Silk Road.
Becoming the north rejecting the south and harmonious.
The so-called northern rejection means trying not to start a large-scale war with Wu in the short term.
This time Wang Zhene went on an expedition, the news that came back felt ambiguous.
Previously, he tried to ask Emperor Wu for directions with Utena's handwritten letter, but received no response.
This attitude is difficult to grasp.
As long as the stability of the northern border is maintained, Guo Tianyi can buy time to develop the economy.
As a modern person, Guo Tianyi has a very clear mind.
The war is fought over the economy.
What we are fighting for is national strength.
Now that we have launched an all-out war, even if we win, we will win miserably.
It may even cause Dafeng's economy to decline for many years.
There may also be social phenomena such as "financial crisis" and "inflation".
At that time, when people cannot afford to eat and a bucket of rice sells for a sky-high price, that will be the beginning of exacerbating the gap between the rich and the poor and causing social instability.
When Guo Tianyi proposed the concept of "inflation", all civil and military officials were stunned.
After Guo Tianyi explained clearly, Baiguan woke up as if from a dream.
It turns out that a country’s economy has so much knowledge?
No wonder, no wonder the dynasties before Dafeng Dynasty perished so quickly.
Emperor Feng Jing initially rose up in power, but within three years he overthrew the previous dynasty with the help of a group of rebel allies.
Isn't it because of inflation and the excessive gap between the rich and the poor in society?
When the court ran out of money, it minted money.
If a bushel of rice sells for thousands of dollars, it will be strange if this dynasty does not perish.
This national policy can last as short as two years or as long as five years.
It was called Dafeng’s first five-year plan by Guo Tianyi, and it was also the first five-year plan for Dafeng’s rise.
The second national policy is to order the Hanlin Academy to ban the printing of any books about the Lu and Confucian sect throughout the country.
Comprehensively promote Qi Confucianism.
Lu is the hometown of Confucius.
The number of sour scholars here is also the largest.
As long as we stop promoting any books related to Lu and Confucianism, the atmosphere will naturally change after these old-fashioned Confucians pass away.
Guo Tianyi also did not want to do violent things, burning books and humiliating scholars.
That would be detrimental to public sentiment and social stability.
The third national policy is to make every effort to improve people's livelihood, improve farmland water conservancy, and promote new agricultural tools.
Even the Queen Mother was amazed when she found out about Guo Tianyi's national policy.
Another thing is whether we should continue to reduce vassal status.
The King of Qin has already entered the capital, looking very happy and reluctant to think about Shu.
In order to open the Silk Road to the south, three princes with different surnames in the Yunchuan Road area also need to be dealt with.
Taiwei Wang Yuan has made several suggestions to directly reduce the vassal status.
The Yunchuan Road area was a barbarian land a hundred years ago.
Compared with the Nanyi countries, the degree of Chineseization in the Yunchuan Road area is very high.
Wearing Hanfu, speaking Chinese, and intermarrying with the Central Plains area for a long time, the degree of Chineseization is very high.
However, it is made up of many ethnic minorities.
During the previous dynasty, the three largest tribes in the Yunchuan Road area were given the title of queen, and this did not change in the Daifeng Dynasty.
The three kings of Yunchuan Dao also contributed to the Jin Dynasty Rebellion.
In the past, there were King Jin and King Pingnan on the side, and the three kings of Yunchuan Dao were honest.
Part of the territory of King Jin and King Pingnan was originally their territory.
However, according to Jin Yiwei's information, the three kings of Yunchuan Road often sent scouts to explore the territories of King Jin and King Pingnan. What they wanted to do is worth pondering.
Among them, the King of Lingnan is closest to the Central Plains and has fifty thousand mercenaries.
In addition, King Nanzhao and King Taihe had a very good relationship. The three of them fought with each other but also cooperated with each other.
If the imperial court wants to use troops here to completely control them, it will inevitably trigger a backlash from the three kings.
Furthermore, this place is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The mountain roads are rugged and it has a reputation of being difficult to climb to the sky.
Moreover, since the imperial court put down the feudal rebellion, the relationship between the three kings of Yunchuan Road has become better and better, and there is obviously a tendency to become monolithic.
Their wishes are clear.
The Yunchuan Road area still needs their autonomy.
Nominally, they still belong to Dafeng.
Royal study room.
"Your Majesty, this is the latest information from the Jinyi Guards in the Yunchuan Road area."
Cai Xuan, the commander of Jinyi Guards, took a secret report and reported it to Guo Tianyi.
"Wang Aiqing, look at it, these three kings with different surnames are hereditary from the previous dynasty." Guo Tianyi looked at Wang Yuan and frowned, "It is not easy to reduce the vassal status."
Originally, Guo Tianyi didn't want to worry about the three kings of Yunchuan Dao.
To put it bluntly, these three princes are harmless.
Even if you give them the courage, they won't dare to rebel.
But here's the problem.
To open up the Silk Road to the south, we must build bridges and roads.
The three kings of Yunchuan Dao must cut down their feudal vassals.
The imperial court also controlled all of the south, so it was impossible not to cut down the vassal vassal.
"Your Majesty, I have an idea." Wang Yuan thought for a moment and then said, "Among the three kings of Yunchuan Road, the relationship between King Nanling and King Taihe was very tense before. We can start from here to consume their vitality.
..."
"Huh?" Guo Tianyi's eyes lit up and he immediately agreed, "Cai Xuan, pass the order immediately and execute the order."
"promise!"
In the end, Guo Tianyi was still ready to attack the three kings of Yunchuan Dao.
Just as Wang Yuan said.
If we want true unification, there cannot be such a thing as a feudal king.
Otherwise there will be trouble sooner or later.
