Shao Xun stayed in the newly established Dinghu County for more than ten days until the beginning of the leap month. He finally met people from the Jia family in Pingyang, but there were only about 300 people, and they seemed to be a vanguard force.
Shao Xun looked at them carefully.
One person carries a riding horse and a pack animal (mainly a donkey), wearing leather armor and carrying a walking bow on his waist.
It seems they are no longer cavalry, but just infantry who can ride horses.
He didn't believe that there was no iron armor in Jia's manor, but among this group of people, only a few dozen people were wearing it, so it seemed that they had some reservations.
He also thought of someone who had secretly reported that when the Xiongnu failed, the wealthy people in Hedong and Pingyang plundered the treasury, tracked down the remaining soldiers, and obtained a large number of high-quality military equipment and even battle-hardened warriors.
These guys!
He smiled, met Jia You, who came specially to Dinghu, and said, "Yan will be here in the future."
"Your Majesty." Jia You bowed and saluted.
"Why is General Yan unwilling to take up the post of Ding Hu Ling?" Shao Xun put forward the proposition as soon as he came.
Jia You smiled bitterly and said: "In the frontier fortress, chaos breaks out all the time. My servants are only good at history, not martial arts, so they can't do anything."
"You are honest." Shao Xun looked at Jia You and said.
Jia You lowered his head, feeling slightly humiliated.
The Pingyang Jia family may not have a good reputation, but they were so powerful in the Jin Dynasty that even the Langya Wang family wanted to marry them?
Although Jian Nanfeng has been suppressed all the way since his execution, he still cannot be underestimated. The behavior of King Liang was a bit excessive.
After a while, Jia You didn't hear Shao Xun's voice and raised his head, only to find that King Liang was still looking at him. The humiliation, anger and even pride that had just grown in his heart disappeared in an instant, and he became a little panicked.
.
In times of crisis, people's sixth sense is actually quite keen.
"Someone has reported Jia's various illegal acts, please punish him, but I don't agree." Shao Xun removed his hand from the handle of the knife at his waist and said.
"Your Majesty, this is definitely slander." Jia You was startled and subconsciously raised his voice and said.
"I think the same thing." Shao Xun still stared at Jia You and said, "Presumably the Jia family is loyal to the emperor and patriotic."
Although Jia You didn't know how to fight, his mind was clear. He sighed secretly in his heart and said: "I am willing to send my subordinates and two thousand households of Zhuangke to Dinghu County. But there is really no one in the Jia clan who is good at martial arts."
, there is only one distant relative named Jia Gui, who was outstanding in martial arts when he was young. Later, he got angry with his family and went to Zhongtiao Mountain. He heard that he had many contacts with the Wei family in Anyi, but he didn't know..."
"Yes." Shao Xun didn't want to talk nonsense and said, "I'll ask Jia Gui for you, and he will be the Dinghu Ling to take charge of the guests who have moved here. But there is one thing -"
"Your Majesty, please give me your instructions."
"Now that the families are separated, there should be no more meetings and sacrifices. From now on, the Dinghu Jia family is the Dinghu Jia family, and the Pingyang Jia family is the Pingyang Jia family. There is no need to have any more relationships."
"As ordered." Jia You replied bitterly.
A big family, of course, has many branches.
Some people go to work as officials in other places and breed a lot of descendants there. They form one branch. At this time, it depends on the situation——
If you settle down locally, your family will really be separated.
If you don't register, it doesn't count as a family separation, because your county surname genealogy is still in your hometown. Whether you want to become an official, check for filial piety, or promote talents, you can only go back to your hometown to handle it.
This is the case for the Fenyin Xue family. Hedong does not allow them to adopt the county surname. There is no record of the Xue family in the county genealogy, so they cannot use the official selection system of Hedong County and even Sizhou to become officials. They have been a local tycoon for fifty years.
Shaoxun means that the Jia clan who migrated to Dinghu County later moved to Xihe County, according to the genealogy of Bingzhou, while the original Jia clan in Pingyang moved to Pingyang County, according to the genealogy of Liang State.
From now on, bridges return to bridges, roads return to roads, and the two families have nothing to do with each other. Just like the Yingchuan Yu family and the Xinye Yu family, they no longer consider themselves to be one family.
The situation is really terrible when aristocratic families do not separate their families.
"In suburban villas, rich and poor, everyone eats together from afar, without any other Cuan (cuàn), and they are especially friendly. The poor and orphans of the tribe are raised and taught..." - This is the legacy of the Tang Dynasty, and at this time, only
More serious.
Apart from anything else, during the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Xue family in Fenyin had three thousand clan members living together.
At the end of the Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties, Linzhou Zhejia was often home to one or two thousand tribesmen.
A branch of the Hongnong Yang family moved to Linzhou after the mid-Tang Dynasty. While buying land and houses, farming and grazing, they also practiced martial arts and studied, and recruited tribesmen. They were able to have descendants for generations, and because of the harsh external environment, they lived together and gradually developed.
, the name of Yang Ye and Yang Wudi resounded throughout the north.
The children of these powerful military families basically practice martial arts, and use the clan blood as a link to join the Zhuangke tribe. The resulting army is highly organized and can be called a "disciple army." For example, the Zhe family army has been fighting with Xixia for many years.
It was the main tentacle of the Northern Song Dynasty that penetrated into the west bank of the Yellow River.
The armed tycoons are a destabilizing factor in the interior, but they are very good in the frontiers, because they rely on the reputation and resources provided by the court to deal with the covetous Hu people. As long as it is not the end of the dynasty, it is difficult to rebel.
Moreover, they are also an important weapon in the Sinicization area, somewhat similar to the imperial soldiers.
The Jia family in Pingyang is settled, just like the Guo family in Taiyuan.
"Pingyang is also under the jurisdiction of the Liang Kingdom. The country is inspecting the land. The land deeds of the two thousand farmers who have been separated are sent to the county. The Jia family will not investigate." Shao Xun said again: "This matter should be handled quickly.
"
Jia You lowered his head, closed his eyes, and said after a moment: "Yes."
Shao Xun glanced at him, turned and left.
The warriors carrying swords and bows also looked at him with mockery and ridicule on their faces.
****
On March 20th, Shao Xun walked and inspected all the way and arrived at another Yellow River crossing.
After days of rain, the mountains were covered with lush vegetation, and the weeds on the riverbank grew wildly, as if they had received some order.
The horses, cattle and sheep happily gnawed, wagging their heads and tails, very happy.
Some over-zealous sheep even use their special mouth structure to eat buds and leaves in the bushes, making the cattle and horses feel worse.
"The place where the two rivers meet, let's call it Hehejin. To the south of Hehejin, choose a flat land and build Hehe County." Shao Xun pointed to the ancient ferry at the foot of the mountain with his horse whip and said.
There are three or five boats near the ferry, each boat can carry more than ten people.
Surrounded by elms and willows, there are several small wooden houses on the ferry shore, which are probably the residences of the boatmen.
Hehejin is located dozens of miles northwest of today's Xing County, Shanxi Province, where the Weifen River enters the Yellow River, so it is called "Hehe" and is one of the ancient Yellow River crossings.
On the west bank of the river, there are also the ruins of the Han Dynasty city wall, which should have been a walled city guarding the ferry.
This fragment of ruins seems to have been used.
On the hills outside the city, there are herds of cattle and sheep.
The small broken basins between the hills are full of crops and full of greenery.
At the highest point of the city, a large flag with the character "Liu" was erected. It seemed that there were a few soldiers guarding it, but I don't know who they were.
Shao Xun carefully considered what would happen if he collected forty or fifty ships to ferry hundreds of people across at a time?
It is still difficult to think about it. These hundreds of people did not cross over in one go, but in batches, and there was a walled city and a garrison on the other side. When your footing was not stable, arrows rained down. The cavalry rushed again, and the infantry
Following the ending, the man crossing the river is basically finished.
Even if they successfully cross the river, supply will still be a problem.
Not to mention that since ancient times and even in the era of thermal weapons in later generations, landing operations have still been a worldwide problem.
It would be great if there was no one to defend the other side. Then we could cross the river calmly, reorganize our troops, and hoard supplies...
There will also be people coming from Hehejin and Hehe County.
The Runan Zhou family has recently been targeted by the "cruel official" Fei Li, and the charges were not fabricated out of thin air. The Zhou family indeed hid the land and secretly bribed the student soldiers who cleared the land.
This matter was not a big one, but it was finally determined that the Runan Zhou family was involved in concealing it. The disciples who bribed were beheaded, and the student soldiers and several minor officials who accepted the bribes were also beheaded.
The Zhou family moved part of the tribe and 2,000 villagers to Hehe County to find land for cultivation.
The Puzi Guo family, the Dinghu Jia family, and the Hehe Zhou family are all prestigious noble families with considerable backgrounds.
In addition to guarding the border, Shao Xun also hoped that they could use various methods to appease the Hu people, change their customs, and slowly assimilate them.
People are fond of Qiang. After the Hu leaders were included in the surname, there were standards for selecting officials. They would subconsciously imitate, learn, move closer to advanced civilization, and gradually be assimilated.
On the other hand, if you just use, ravage, and squeeze them, ignore them, and don't bother to come up with policies and spend efforts to assimilate them, that will be the current situation.
When you use it, give them some money and let them work hard in battle.
When not in use, stay away from them as if you hate smelly dog ​​excrement. How can you assimilate them?
The Zhe family moved to Linzhou during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty. They claimed to be descendants of the Yuwen family. They later conquered the local Qiang people and the Dangxiang tribe. For three hundred years, they continued to serve as officials in the Tang Dynasty. By the end of the Tang Dynasty, they were completely sinicized. During the Five Dynasties and the Northern Song Dynasty, they became border guards.
One of the pillars.
You still have to take the initiative to intervene.
The Eastern Han Dynasty, the Cao Wei Dynasty, and the Western Jin Dynasty all liked to bury their heads in the sand. They kept retreating from the national border, pretending not to see it, and were only satisfied with superficial surrender. In fact, when they surrendered, they continued to burn, kill and loot the Han people. However, in order to avoid war, the imperial court
Too lazy to care, I sent out troops once when I couldn't bear it anymore. Not many years after winning the battle, I found that they were pushing forward again.
Nowadays, it is impossible to finish the killing, and Shao Xun is constantly thinking of ways to dismantle this big thunder since the Han Dynasty bit by bit.
After staying in Hehejin for a few days, Shao Xun was ready to return.
On the occasion of departure, a banquet was held with chiefs from far and near to appease their hearts and deepen their feelings.
As for the ferry further north, he was not planning to go there for the time being because it was too dangerous.
That place is already the territory of Tuoba Xianbei. Going north with an army of more than 10,000 people can easily lead to misunderstanding. He is not yet ready to conquer the Tuoba clan.
Tuoba Xianbei was a serious country.
The king of the country was a "general prince" conferred by the Jin Dynasty, but internally, he built a capital city, appointed hundreds of officials, and even had a royal chariot. He was not a tribal chief.
If you want to attack the Dai Kingdom, you have to devote all your strength to the Northern Expedition to achieve stability.
On the 28th, the army marched eastward from Hehejin towards Xiurong.
At this time, the sky was gloomy and the rain was getting thicker and raining non-stop.
There was already too much rain last year, and it seems to be even worse this year!
Chapter completed!
